5205 Boneless Mountainer
"What? You dare to resist? Which part of the city is?" Zai Cheng shouted loudly when he saw it.
The figure of a white cigar jumped out of the team behind him and crawled over. "Little one knows, little one knows... The commander of the Wufenglou defender is Xie Ting. He is the new army from Wuyi Mountain in the south. He is one of the most trusted direct descendants of the foolish monarch..."
"Oh! It turns out it was him. I seem to have heard of it..." Yi nodded and still had some impressions in his mind. "Go and talk to Xie Ting. If you say that he is inferior, it will be your great contribution..."
The white cigar was so scared that the white hair sweat came out, "Ah... Long live the emperor, this new army is unreasonable... There is a heavy machine gun on the top of the city, and the slave was killed when he went!"
"Don't worry... I'll send someone to protect you, give him a bulletproof vest, and give him a white flag and a few guards!"
The white cicada was so desperate that she died. She thought that she just wanted to come over and take a picture of a horse. Why did she just slap her on the horse's hooves? I'll go forward? I'll negotiate if I'm going to have a life or not?
But His Majesty had already spoken. What else could he say? He should rush in! Four guards rushed over and put a bloated vest on him, stuffed with ceramic armor pieces collected from the battlefield.
Not only that, the four guards also removed several huge door panels from the hip hall behind, all of which were lined with good wood and iron bars, which were the most sturdy.
This is a huge shield on all sides, walking carefully around the white cicada. The white cicada's crotch was wet, but no one laughed at him on the battlefield.
A white flag was floating in the gap between the shield on the door panel. The white cicada holding the iron trumpet shouted in a trembling voice, "Is it Xie Ting's troops in the city? The two countries are fighting and fighting, and they are here to negotiate, not war..."
"Your Majesty asked me to bring a message... Surrender. Your Majesty knows that you are a loyal minister and have the ability. You can sell the imperial family with the civil and military skills! Follow Emperor Guangxu, you will naturally have your high-ranking officials and generous salaries... Surrender!"
Dada... A row of bullets exploded in front of the small defense formation of Baizizi, and then Xie Ting's figure emerged from the Wufeng Tower.
Bah... I spit out a mouthful of saliva, "Go back and tell you that rebellious master! There are new imperial guards who died in battle in the world but no new imperial guards who surrender!"
"We have made a vow in front of Mazu before we come! We will live up to His Majesty's kindness in this life. If you want to hit you, you will be beaten... or die quickly!"
The white citrus wiped the sweat on his head, "Why do you have to! Why do you have to... The unlucky emperor Tongzhi has no luck, and you will die in vain. Think about your parents, family, brothers and sisters... are they waiting for you to go back?"
"Hahaha... shut up and get out! Since we put on this dress, we have never thought of going back alive. On the day we walked out of the house, we will be ready, either to retire and return home in glory, or to die in a horse's body on the battlefield!"
"I can't imagine what makes us surrender! If I survived as a rebel, I wouldn't be able to enter the ancestral grave when I go back in the future. Damn it, I'll fire..."
Dada da... Dada da...
The heavy machine gun spit out the flames and several bullets hit the thick door panel. The bullets of the heavy machine gun were very powerful, and even two inches of wooden boards could not hold back. Two personal soldiers in the front were shot and fell to the ground and screamed in pain.
The white citrus was so scared that he ran back, while the other soldiers dragged their injured comrades back and ran away.
"Your Majesty... I'm incompetent. These people can't listen to the kind words of good things. They have even said that they have sworn to Mazu, and that their parents at home will not let them come back alive..."
"I am incompetent. Please punish your majesty severely..." After saying that, he kowtowed desperately.
Yi waved his hand with a cold face and asked the boy to go down. He frowned and looked at the new army soldiers showing off their might on the top of the city and wondered, "What's going on with this group of people? Why would you rather die than surrender?"
"Because they are mountain people..." At this time, British military officer Delaney rode his horse from behind the team. "Your Majesty doesn't understand the people in the Qing Dynasty?"
"We have to admire Xiao Letian's wisdom in this regard. Our British have tried every means to get some secret documents within the Chinese people, part of which is the meeting minutes of Xiao Letian!"
"Do you know why Xiao Letian asked Emperor Tongzhi to choose new recruits in the Wuyishan area? It is because Xiao Letian understands the differences in China's vast land and vast national conditions!"
"Xiao Letian once said that... I was not born in Huizhou in my previous life. I said that there are many mountains and rivers in Huizhou, but there is no land!"
"The cruel living environment forces the people there to think of other ways to survive, so merchants from Huizhou are actually the same. The geographical environment of Shanxi Province is similar..."
"Fujian Province has more mountains and few fields, but there are many coasts. So from the Tang and Song dynasties, there are areas with developed sea transportation, but the Ming and Qing dynasties were suppressed!"
"Human behavior can be suppressed and blocked, but the culture and environment will not be easily abolished. The cruel and harsh natural environment will make the people there more united and the clan thoughts are stronger. At the same time, there is no such idea that the homeland is hard to leave in the plains!"
"Whether it is Huizhou or Wuyi Mountain, families with a large population encourage or even force their children to go out for a walk. Either you go to do business or go to Nanyang, their love for their children is different from that of the Central Plains farming areas!"
"Why do people in Fujian believe in Mazu? Because Mazu blesses sailing, traveling, and making people go and venturing!"
"What is the most important thing about exploring the world? It is the spirit of a small group. You cannot fight alone, you must unite... The court seems to be the most afraid of this!"
"The farming civilization in the Great Plain Area, due to the constraints of etiquette and law, the king's laws and habits, naturally demanded that their children be locked in their hometowns and prevent them from leaving... Otherwise, why are there roads leading them?"
"Actually, the court also wants to lock the population on the farmland!"
"This is a very terrible phenomenon. The same farmland has more and more people, and it is not allowed to go out... This will cause internal strife, and disunity will naturally occur!"
"This behavior will gradually become a culture, a culture of self-interested people! The soldiers recruited in this cultural area must undergo very troublesome brainwashing training, and only by changing this selfishness can one become a good soldier!"
"Haha... let's analyze it like this. If the officers of Xishan Camp were stationed at the Wumen Gate just now, then they would have surrendered long ago in the face of such a loss!"
"But this kind of mountain people's culture is different. They are very loyal to small groups. Because they don't unite, they can't survive. Whether they are traveling to Southeast Asia or South America, or Europe, it's the same!"
"And they value the reputation of their entire ethnic group. If a small number of people ruin the reputation of the entire Wuyi Mountain people, then their families and their parents will be shamed and punished by society!"
"So they will not surrender, nor will they surrender for the reputation of the people of Wuyi Mountain, nor will they surrender for the glory of the family and clan!"
"I am proud of my oath even if I die in the battlefield! But what if I surrender? It will ruin the reputation of the entire family and even my hometown!"
"There will be no one to do business with them in the future, and no one will recruit their soldiers! It is so famous that it will not be able to recover for hundreds of years!"
Delaney's words moved these Qing nobles. In fact, Delaney had no words and dared not say them.
Xiao Letian once said, "These Hakkas hidden in the vast mountains are actually a branch of the ancestors of the Han people... The bloodline of these people still retain the real Han genes before the Five Barbarians invaded China!"
"Sacrifice your life and forget your life, and strive for justice!"
"Yinpo is the daughter!"
And the spirit of all this was what the Qing Dynasty's Tartars were most afraid of!
