"Dog official! What are you doing here? I'll kill you!“
"Yang Zhu 'en, you betrayed Big Brother and joined the Imperial Court?"”
Just as Liu Yongfu and the others were about to join the demonic battle, Yang Zhuen appeared with the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Zhang Zhidong.
Li Ye's two imperial edicts, one in the open and one in the dark, were clearly not something that those in the imperial court could understand.
Zhang Zhidong's official reputation had been good for the past two years. Liu Yongfu also knew that Yang Zhu 'en could not refuse such a person to see him. It was just that they had lost Shanxi and the Qing army had nothing to do with it.
"Lord Zhang, you are a good official. I don't want to kill you, but why did Qinggou send you here?”
Liu Yongfu waved his hand to signal his subordinates to calm down, but he also snorted coldly with a murderous look on his face.
"Don't think about summoning us. We don't trust Qinggou!”Huang Shouzhong could naturally guess Zhang Zhidong's intentions.
Zhang Zhidong didn't say anything but clapped his hands. Naturally, two soldiers walked up and opened the wooden box they were holding. There were two human heads that had been marinated in lime.
He naturally knew these two people and hated them to the core. However, he was still missing one more person.
"Pan Dingxin, Zhao Youting? Where's Huang Guilan?"
Liu Yongfu couldn't help but be surprised. He didn't expect Qing Chao to have such courage to surrender. It seemed that he had put in a lot of effort.
" Huang Guilan has already committed suicide to avoid punishment. Although this person is brave but not resourceful, he can be considered to have fought against the French. He only needs to confiscate his property. Pan Dingxin and Zhao Youting did not help him. They were afraid of death and went to the front line to stain the battlefield with the blood of tens of thousands of soldiers. Annan fell. After the Emperor heard about it, he was furious and ordered the two of them to be beheaded in front of the army to warn the three armies to comfort the souls of the soldiers on the front line.”
Zhang Zhidong cupped his hands in the direction of the capital and said with a serious expression.
Although Liu Yongfu was mentally prepared for this, he was still extremely happy when he heard Zhang Zhidong's words and saw the heads of the two subjects.
"Lord Zhang, I'm afraid that this time, it's not as simple as just giving away a head, right?”
Liu Yongfu quickly collected his thoughts. His brothers still had to follow him. It was not a good idea to go north.
"General Liu, have you ever thought of winning in one fell swoop and regrouping? With your plan and the ability of your soldiers, you might be able to replace the King of Annan in the name of resisting the law. Even if you fail, you will still be a national hero.”
Liu Yongfu shook his head! He hated the French to the bone and could not leave his homeland. How could he lose sight of the French invading the southwest? However, his current strength was clearly not enough.
"Then General can lead the army to compensate the Emperor. Not only will the troops and equipment be replenished, but the rations will also be guaranteed. Moreover, the Emperor is a great talent and will not disgrace you.”
Zhang Zhidong hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and advised.
"The emperor is indeed a wise ruler, but those green eagles may not be able to tolerate us.”
Liu Yongfu fell silent. He had thought that he would spend the rest of his life in Annan, but it was difficult to leave his hometown. The homesickness of the people of China was getting stronger and stronger. The further away they were, the more they missed their hometown. The longer they were, the more they could not forget their hometown.
Even if they couldn't return to their hometown with honor, they still wanted to return to their roots. This thought seemed to have been deeply ingrained into the bones of every Black Flag Army soldier.
Now that there was such an opportunity, even if he was stubborn before, he wanted to give it a try.
"This is the Emperor's personal decree. Not only does it absolve the Black Flag Army of all previous crimes, but it also allows you to form a new army. I still have you as my commander. I'm injured now, but I don't have a new army. I'm all envious of you!”
Zhang Zhidong smiled and waited for Liu Yongfu to hesitate before taking out the imperial decree.
If the other party had no intention of submitting, he would follow Li Ye's instructions and return to Guangdong.
"The emperor is actually giving us new troops?”
Liu Yongfu felt that it was a little unbelievable. It was already good enough that the rebels who surrendered did not split them up. They would also be used to death like the heroes who surrendered to Liangshan and consume their strength.
He actually replenished the weapons and provisions of the new army in their town and returned to their hometown during the holidays. He knew very well what kind of treatment the new army received. It was simply like a dream.
"Just say it…!"
"Since they have already submitted, they are naturally the emperor's soldiers, let alone the new army of the emperor's personal guards! "Naturally, it will be completely in accordance with the system of the imperial court…" Zhang Zhidong said with a deep meaning.
"Lord Zhang, I understand. In the future, I will take care of you as an official of the same dynasty.”
Liu Yongfu instantly understood and could not help but blush. The other party did not need to doubt him. He could see through a teenager clearly, but he had lived his life like a dog.
Zhang Zhidong stroked his long beard with satisfaction.
" If that's the case, we'll set off immediately. However, the army is in dire need of medicine and food, but we don't have enough. Can we borrow a batch for our arrangements? When the imperial court…" Suddenly, Liu Yongfu cupped his hands and began to ask for things without any politeness.
Zhang Zhidong's face instantly darkened.'What a clever mind. You changed so quickly. Fortunately, I was prepared…'
Li Yongfu could not help but laugh when he saw Zhang Zhidong's expression, but he also felt a trace of sadness.
The feeling of having a backer! That was great!
