In Chengdu city, when dawn again ushered in, it was also when the Dongchuan army began to attack the inner city again.
Because the previous negotiations with the emperor on the city’s head had only allowed Yang Shili to postpone his effort for two days and one night; as an envoy between the inner city and the outer Guo, Dongchuan soldiers and horses who came to Xingshi to inquire about their crimes were comforted and rewarded, and they discussed the aftermath. Buffer of matters.
However, after repeated strong demands and rushes, the titles of the emperor have changed from Guogong, Special Jin, Kaifuyitong Sansi, Shangshu Zuopushe, and successively added Taiwei, Taishi, Dongchuan County King, Zhongshu Ling; Sanchuan all Jiedushi. . . .
However, in the disturbed Dongchuan army, I never saw the head of Tian Lingzi as the primary target of the inquisition of the teacher, and even the head of the main accomplice his brother Nishikawa Jiedushi Chen Jingxuan; after all, Yang Shili's last point was exhausted. patient.
So he was tied to a stone cannon that had already been erected, and projected back to the emperor's envoy Dugu Zhen, who hit the wall and hit the wall, becoming the first victim under the anger of the Dongchuan Army.
The soldiers of Dongchuan who had been plundered in the city for days and days were also contented, holding up the materials taken from the houses in the city, and made various baffles, ladders and other objects to attack the wall of the inner city. .
At this time, the young emperor of the Tang Dynasty was finally in the mumble muttering of "Father Tian misunderstood me". Temporarily recover and cheer up, and personally stand under the black thatch cover on the wall. Quanzuo encouraged the remaining escorts and united children, Chengdu generals and their family members to fight hard to block the monstrous flames of the Dongchuan rebels.
As a result, the Dongchuan Army, which suffered numerous casualties and was unable to go to the city for a few days, once again adopted another method of tactics. Many old, young women and children from the 120 squares in the outer Guocheng were crushed in droves in front of the four gates of Dong Heng in the sub-city. Under the flogging and clubbing, they began to cry loudly for the family members and children of the guards at the head of the city.
Suddenly, the morale of the united children of local origin collapsed, and there were even incidents of gangs trying to escape across the city overnight. As a result, the commanders who had their families in the inner city and the foreign escort sergeants were intercepted and cut down. It took dozens of heads to calm down.
However, two days later, the Dongchuan Army, which once again broke through the lower limit, had a new tactic. More people in the city were driven under the threat of knives and guns, while holding bags, piled up soil and wall roots, while swinging tools to gouge and excavate the wall foundation inward.
As soon as these frontrunners were almost killed and injured, the Dongchuan army concealed it and searched for opportunities to attack and kill on the wall. As a result, the battle became fierce and fierce again; whether it was General Zuo Shenwu, the guardian Zhou Bao walking on the left and right, or General Zuo Jinwu, and Liu Jurong, the guards of the gates in front of the palace, they had to lead their children to fight in the gate tower. Above.
On the fifth day of the offensive and defensive war, after the Ximen Tower in the Zicheng collapsed in the fire, the emperor of Tang Dynasty also sent new envoys again; and more and more humble voices began to discuss whether it would go up and down. , Yixing went to Zitong's affairs.
As a result, Yang Shili proudly took off the dusty black armor, and put on the dark purple tunic-collared robe exclusively used by the prime ministers and prime ministers, and paired with the indescribable golden tortoise belt.
In front of the large bronze mirror that was too high, I imagined lighting up the full-clothed dental soldiers. Surrounded by the guard of honor armed to the teeth, Xing Xiang that was slowly opening the city gate to him and going out to welcome the ministers. Some of the scene.
At this time, the messenger who rushed by several horses brought him a bad news like a thunderbolt; but it was Xichuan's attacker Gao Renhou who had used Puzhou to go north, and invaded the territory of Zizhou and surrounded Dongchuan. Jiedushi's Lisuo Zitong City.
For a while, Yang Shili, who was a little lost in advance and retreat, had to spend another whole day to unify his subordinates' disputes between staying and leaving, and dissipating the resources of the army and lavishly rewarding some of the soldiers who were volatile.
Only then did they reach an agreement, no longer engage in any flower-headed entrance ceremonies, and quickly took this trip as the foundation of Chengdu Zicheng, and then urged the emperor to issue an edict to declare Gao Renhou as an adversary, and then divided the troops to rescue and retake Zizhou. The old town.
However, it was as if the gods made people, or his energy and luck since the beginning of the army had been exhausted; Yang Shili, who had stayed in Dongchuan outside the city, fled back in panic again.
On the banks of the famous Moke Pool in Daze and a place to the west of Chengdu, Qiang soldiers in fur hats and beasts came across the mountains and plains.
—I am the dividing line —
Then, when he got out of the car again, Hong Yao'er's little face still had a blushing color, and there was an explosion in his watery eyes. However, the shirts and skirts under the original cloak and fur have also become common winter men's cotton-padded trousers and fur covers.
Although it looks like a fair-skinned teenager, but wearing a fur-edged coat with a wide avenue enough to cover his hands and feet, it has a furry cuteness similar to a puppet outfit; looking at this cute boyish style. The beauty of sex made Zhou Huaian feel a little eager to move.
The next job of guarding the inner ring was taken over by special guards from the Social Reconciliation Department, and the guards whose appearance was too different from ordinary people were concentrated in several nearby places to wait and wait. As for traveling by car, they were still escorted by another group of guards and returned to the city intact.
At this moment, Hongyaoer is also rare to show the appearance of a rare child, walking briskly between the streets of the city square, curiously and interestingly looking and turning through all kinds of street vendors. Most of the things sold are extremely cheap or extremely crude goods.
It also made Zhou Huai'an unable to help but reflect, whether he unintentionally depressed her too much, and felt that she was slightly reduced and thinner in the description. In retrospect, since she was adopted by Mrs. Cao when she was young, she spent most of her life in the rebel army, full of upheavals and displacement.
So it is true that she has seen many tragic things in time, and she is full of compassion and love for the working people. However, under Madam Cao's efforts to protect and teach, it is tantamount to having spent his innocent years in a life like a bird in a cage.
Apart from worrying about food and clothing, he basically has no relationship with the life of normal people. It is not surprising that he is full of curiosity and freshness about the appearance and style of the market that has settled down. Thinking of this, Zhou Huaian's eyes became softer again.
With the scent spreading between the stalls and shops, she soon ate two bunches of local specialties-ring cream, similar to a fried doughnut-like thing, but with the addition of The sweet sauce and savory flavors of scallion white and chopped celery.
In addition, there are crispy small fish that can be burnt smoothly with or without any flavor, grilled three flavors baked with small pieces of pork skin, pro and taro chips, smooth and non-greasy lamb's tail jelly, sticky yellow rice and jujube puree , Steamed fruit made from crushed peach kernels; daffodils with crab roe and fish wrapped in rice; there are even sweet cheese porridge and yellow syrup with obvious northern style.
However, Zhou Huaian's most appetite is to use scallion, cartilage, jelly, oil residue and miscellaneous noodles, dry and paste them into rotten meat pie in a charcoal burning earthen furnace. You can actually buy two for only fifteen cents; although the smoky sanitary conditions in the open air, the standard will be a bit worrying in the future.
But it also indirectly proved another fact. It is under the rule of the Taiping Army, especially the relatively low cost of living in Jingzhou, and a relatively sufficient source of food and carbon salary; after all, it is still a winter when everything is dead, and the need for heating takes up a lot of Sophie’s livelihood. A large part.
And most of the time, Zhou Huaian didn’t have to say anything, as long as she held her little hand behind her with a smile, let her buy, buy, eat and eat as she pleased, and occasionally make some attempts, evaluations and products. Well done.
Zhou Huai even collected three half-fold cheat sheets with different textures and contents in his spare time; that is, a simple double-sided publication. I use the cheapest hemp-edged paper that can be broken with a single poke, printed with many small tofu-like small prints, because the printing is inferior and requires close proximity to see clearly.
This thing originated from one of the methods of the Taiping Army propaganda team, but since it began to be popular among the people in the market, it has sprung up and proliferated rapidly; therefore, these three cheat sheets are not officially issued official copies; It's something that was secretly invented in a folk workshop.
The content of the publication is also very casual, from the rumors in the market neighborhood, to the short trivial gossip of the parents, and even specious almanacs, taboos, and even second-hand news copied from the formal text, and some of the far-fetched catch-ups. .
Obviously, some later generations ignore the facts, and the gossip tabloids that directly control sales are a bit rudimentary; and in one of the low-quality cheat sheets, Zhou Huaian even felt the social mediation department's intervention and interference in the direction of public opinion.
However, behind this rough and vaguely printed cheat sheet (newspaper), it represents the cheap paper source that can be provided by the paper industry with large-scale production capacity after hydraulic machinery is popularized everywhere; and the same low-cost ( Coke) ink and simple plate-making technology spread in the private sector.
Therefore, in such a double-folded four-page cheat sheet worth only five dollars, there are more than a dozen achievements of the Taiping Army ahead of this era. It can be regarded as a by-product and a branch of the science and technology tree derived from the completion of the most primitive "five small" industrial foundations.
Zhou Huaian thought about it in this way, and made a gesture to the security guards who were among the nearby crowd alternately following and monitoring the situation by relaying the situation in front of the vendors, porters, passers-by, or the belongings of the shoppers and alcoholics.
