The next evening, in Tianxing Town, 30 kilometers away from Nanning.
1760, Year Gengchen, Zodiac Dragon. This year, the wind and rain in Gui Province were not adjusted, and the disaster continued to worsen, reaching an incomprehensible level.
There was a flood in the early spring, and the rainstorm lasted for half a month. The crops that the people had just planted were all destroyed, and there was no harvest.
In the blink of an eye, it was summer. The disaster victims fantasized about picking some wild vegetables and fruits to satisfy their hunger so that they would not starve to death. In the end, the sunny weather had lasted for three months, and high temperatures above 40 degrees were common.
The original green mountains and rivers had disappeared, replaced by withered and dead mountains! The river dried up.
The strange thing was that ever since the Yan Huang National Defense Army raised the flag to rebel in Qin Zhou, the temperature had gradually dropped. It had been a few days since there was a high temperature of more than 40 degrees.
Four hours ago, Gui Province, which had not had rain for three months, was covered in dark clouds.
The commoners were stunned. In the next second, the commoners who had survived the disaster had tears streaming down their faces. They knelt down and kowtowed, crying bitterly!
"God, you've finally opened your eyes. Sob, sob, sob."
"It's raining. It's going to rain. We can survive…"
"My mother, did you see that? The heavens have opened their eyes. My two children and I can live on.”
"The heavens have opened their eyes, the heavens have opened their eyes…Wuwuwu ~"
On the official road outside of Tianxing Town, a group of extremely skinny disaster victims knelt in the dried up and cracked rice fields by the roadside, crying.
Those who didn't know that it was a paddy field thought that it was the Gobi Desert.
rumble ~
The engine roared, and the sobbing citizens turned around. They were instantly stunned by the convoy that appeared on the official road.
Dust flew into the air as dark green cars sped over, stunning the people.
It was not that they had not seen foreign cars before. The foreigners in Nan Ning City had one. In the past, when foreigners drove past the town, it would cause a sensation. Many children even sat by the official road waiting to see the foreign cars.
However, compared to this foreign car, a foreign car was no different from a toy.
Some of the commoners were literate. When they recovered from their shock and saw the flag on the front of the car that read "Yan Huang National Defense Army First Division", they could not help but exclaim.
"National Defense Army, it's the Yan Huang National Defense Army, it's the Yan Huang National Defense Army of Qin Province!”
What was that?
Yan Huang National Defense Force?
The commoners were stunned!
A few days ago, the 30,000 soldiers led by Aliman were defeated by the Yan Huang National Defense Army outside the Qinzhou Harbor.
The Yan Huang National Defense Army chased after the escaping Aliman and attacked Shangsi Prefecture. The government troops of Shangsi City fled, and the National Defense Army occupied Shangsi City without bloodshed.
After occupying Shangsi, the commander of the Yan Huang National Defense Force, Zhu Lingye, took out a large number of sweet potatoes to help the victims, saving thousands of victims.
Many disaster victims from other prefectures heard the news and rushed to Shangsi City with their families in order to have a full meal.
This news had long spread to the north and south of the Yangtze River with the Far East Daily, which was run by foreigners.
The people of Heavenly Star Town were silent for a moment. They could not help but rush to the side of the official road excitedly, waving their hands and jumping around.
Even the illiterate old farmer knew why the National Defense Force was here. It must be that the Flame King Zhu Lingye was going to attack Nanning.
Tianxing Town is only 60 miles away from Nan Ning City. If the Flame King takes Nan Ning City, won't we be able to get the Flame King's help?
"Flame King! Flame King! Flame King!"
"Hahaha, the Flame King is here. The Qing army is a bald man with a long tail!”
"Ali Mandu, the Southern Army General who led 30,000 troops, was defeated and killed. Can Nan Ning City stop the Flame King for a day?”
"So many cannons! Look, there's a cannon behind the carriage. My god, you can stuff your head into the cannon.”
" Flame King, hurry up and chase away the Qing army. We can't live anymore…sob "
"Do you guys think that the weather is not as hot as it used to be in the past few days, and it's about to rain? Could it be that the Flame King's rebellion against the Qing Dynasty has been blessed by the heavens?”
"That's right. This is called enforcing justice on behalf of the heavens!!!”
"Yes, we are executing justice on behalf of the heavens. Overthrowing the Barbarian Pure is executing justice on behalf of the heavens.”
Creak.
At this moment, the convoy actually stopped. Soldiers in colorful military uniforms and carrying steel guns jumped out of the car.
A valiant aura assaulted their faces, scaring the commoners into taking a few steps back in unison. They did not even dare to breathe loudly.
Zhu Lingye got out of the jeep and rubbed his sore waist.
The traffic in the 18th century was so bad that he almost fell apart.
Ding Wei and Chu Yunlong walked over with the map.
"Commander-in-chief, this is Tianxing Town, only 30 kilometers away from Nan Ning City.”
At this point, Ding Wei pointed at the endless plains around him.
"The 30-kilometer radius of Tianxing Town is a plain, which is very suitable for a large army to spread out. Commander-in-chief, why don't we build a camp in Tianxing Town and wait for the Qing army?”
Zhu Lingye nodded and glanced at the disaster victims who were peeking at him carefully.
"Go and make arrangements. At the same time, distribute some food to the people and let them leave Heavenly Star Town quickly.”
"Yes."
Rustle, rustle, rustle ~
At this time, Duan Peng ran over with large strides.
"Commander-in-chief, Shangsi has sent a telegram. The diplomatic mission sent by the Empire of the Sun Never Sets has arrived in Shangsi.”
