Guo Yi got excited when he heard it. No wonder the leaders often go abroad. The foreign scriptures recited by these foreign monks are indeed different. [Read the latest chapter]. He quickly grabbed Xue Ziliang and asked him to talk about the details here.
Xue Ziliang asked: "Do you know about the World Republic case?"
"Not sure."
"This is a very typical case. I think it is very consistent with the current situation." This is a strange case that was born in 196o. It was a so-called world republic founded by a man named Fuzzy Burt who claimed to be the illegitimate son of Adolf Hitler. This person announced in the European media: On December 16, 196o, the third flying saucer fleet belonging to Venus will land at Berlin Templeau Airport. Az, the Commander-in-Chief of the Space Rangers will immediately declare the Earthman Foz Burt as the President of the Supreme Government of the World Republic. President Furzi will immediately demand the surrender of all armies on earth, destroy all military ammunition depots, and all soldiers will be prohibited from leaving their barracks.
This case is no different from all kinds of fraud cases. The only difference is that this Fuzz Burt did not commit any fraud. He sincerely believed that he was the president of the World Republic chosen by the Venusians, so this person was not later held accountable for any crime. responsibility.
"Is this similar to the situation we are facing? I believe that they feel that they have arrived in a new world from top to bottom. In fact, it is very likely that this is just a desert island in the waters of Vietnam. Maybe it is someone with ulterior motives in the organization. Someone rented it on purpose.”
"Isn't this just a foreign version of being an emperor..." Xiao Guo yawned, thinking that this is nothing. Since 1949, there have been at least a dozen people in the backwoods of our country who claim to be the right one. When he had nothing to do, he read through these materials - most of the cases were very entertaining.
The explanation is good, but it still cannot explain the problem of all signals disappearing. While I was thinking wildly, the hatch opened and someone threw three blankets in.
"Have a good rest and hit the road tomorrow." The visitor simply informed.
"It seems that we will be moved to another place tomorrow. I have to have a good rest. I will have the strength to walk tomorrow." Selina remained silent and fell asleep at this time.
As a true Chinese, Xiao Guo has a deep understanding of the profoundness of the Chinese language. "Going on the road" is really an unlucky word for people who are trapped in such an environment.
Meng Xian, who came in throwing a blanket, obviously didn't realize that his unintentional words caused Xiao Guo to lose sleep for half the night. He also scribbled in a small notebook and wrote several pages of suicide notes.
At night, Lingao County was completely silent.
After the watch, the city was under a curfew, and the dark city looked particularly eerie. Soldiers were stationed at the intersections of the stone roads throughout the city, ready to check passers-by. Today, a lot of people had poured in from four villages and outside the city, bringing their families with them, and some even brought pigs, cows, chickens, ducks, and cats. Dog, the county has opened all the temples along the road to accommodate these farmers who have taken refuge. There are still many people sleeping on both sides of the stone road. Even animals probably know that disaster is coming and rarely cry out. Only the ignorant children were still crying and being scolded by adults in low voices.
Red or white paper lanterns are hung outside the government offices and temple doors, with dim lights, swaying under the eaves. In the dim light, notices could be seen plastered on the walls. From time to time, a watchman would carry a small lantern and bang his wooden clapper, walking past with a few people.
It was very quiet on the top of the city. There was a lantern not far away, and people were patrolling back and forth on the city wall. Ever since the Bopu beacon alerted the police early in the morning, and then Inspector Fu fled back in a hurry, the atmosphere in the city had become extremely tense. From time to time, people were whispering in the darkness of the street.
"Have the pirates retreated by now?" Someone was whispering under the eaves.
"There is no news from each village yet, so it's hard to say."
"In this case of pirates, in the past they would just grab a ticket and leave. Maybe now the ship will be gone."
"If he really left, would Mr. Wu still call for help?" Someone said mysteriously, "This afternoon, Mr. Wu asked for help after he left."
(The Housuo is the Housuo settlement with 5,000 households in the inner guard in Hainan. There are two settlements in Lingao County.
"The pirates are so powerful?" A dark and thin man was worried. This was a Shegengren (Note: Shegengren, a native of Fujian, shoot the land and cultivate it. The descendants are all Fujianese, how about opening up wasteland and farming in Lingao? It was easy to save a little bit of family property, and he just asked his wife to bring him to his hometown last year. At this moment, his wife was hugging a pig tightly. In the two big bamboo cages next to her, the smell of chickens and ducks was overwhelming, but she was Not caring at all.
"It's not big, it's very big." A person who looked like a small vendor who had probably seen some of the market said vividly, "There has been no peace in Guangdong and Guangxi in the past few years. What is Yang Er, Liu Xiang, and the army? There is nothing we can do about them. Marshal Yu has killed them countless times, with more defeats and fewer victories. I heard that the imperial court is discussing recruiting troops."
"It will be peaceful if we recruit people." Someone said.
"Taiping, I don't think so." The little merchant said angrily, "That Yang Erzhao worked once, but it still harmed the people. I have been worried every time I cross the sea in the past two years. The third talisman of Silk Village is when I cross the sea. Those who were killed, even their bodies were gone..."
"This pirate is not going to attack the county town, is he?"
"It was time to besiege the county seat when the Lebanese uprising broke out in Nan Village thirty years ago. My grandfather also recruited people to defend the city. Those Li people were like crazy. They attacked the city in huge crowds. Later, Ma Yan came again. Once, although we did not attack the city, we did not dare to open the city gate." (Note: The riot of the people in Tinan Village was in the 25th year of Wanli, and the riot of Ding'an Li people was in the 27th year of Wanli.
"I think we should be able to pass without incident this time."
As he was talking, Mr. Dianshi was walking through the street with a few people. Seeing the lively chatter of these people, he couldn't help shouting loudly: "Barbarians are talking nonsense. If you continue to talk nonsense, I will not punish you for disturbing people's hearts!" "
(Note: In the Ming Dynasty, urban people in Hainan called rural people Manzi, while rural people called urban people Chifu. Of course, they were all curse words.
The master was so powerful that no one dared to say a word. Since the beginning of martial law this morning, there have been about a dozen unlucky ones who have been beaten up and flogged because they said a few words or looked a few more times.
Seeing that Mr. Dianshi was leading the people far away, the little merchant muttered: "I only know how to be intimidating to the common people and have the ability to fight pirates..."
"Stop talking!" An old man stopped him, "When is this? Chew on this useless tongue."
Tonight, the Lingao County Magistrate is sitting in the flower hall. His name is Wu Mingjin. He is from Nanzhili. He is nearly fifty years old and has a gray hair. He was supposed to be a candidate for public examination, but the exam was wasted. He is not over forty years old. Dengke. If you want to pick a county magistrate, you still have to go to this humble place in the south. Although Lingao was established as a county a long time ago, even when it was moved from the county seat to Mocun, it was still five hundred years ago. But to him, a native of Nanzhi, it was still a barren and barren land. Since taking office, he has also tried his best to do something for the people, build water conservancy projects, open up wasteland, encourage farmers to teach farmers... to leave a virtuous name. However, there have been constant natural disasters in recent years. The beacon towers along the coast have been on guard for several times a month. They are either shop shops, stone pavilions or horse traps. Pirates are attacking everywhere. The officers and soldiers are helpless. The county has no choice but to close its doors and defend itself, saying "Thieves will go away when they are full" "strategic response. There was another typhoon after last autumn. Countless houses in the villages were destroyed and people were displaced. He ordered people to set up porridge and collect the ownerless corpses. However, the epidemic still broke out and many people died.
(Note: According to the Lingao County Chronicle, there were five county magistrates recorded between the Tianqi and Chongzhen years. Among them, Ye Yao and Wu Mingjin were in office from the end of Tianqi to the beginning of Chongzhen. Since the time of taking office and last appointment cannot be tested, the latter one was used.
Originally, he didn't take the Beacon Tower's warning too seriously. Pirate raids were commonplace here. But what Fu Bowen said after escaping with his archers really frightened him.
The pirates were riding a "huge ship" that had never been seen before. The hull was taller than the Dacheng Hall of Lingao Confucian Temple. The ships that followed were each larger than the official warships and did not use sails or oars. He can come and go freely on the sea, like a magical skill.
The most incredible thing is that those boats are actually made of iron! It was beyond his understanding that a giant ship made of iron could float on water. People have an instinctive fear of things beyond their understanding.
When he saw these people actually starting to land, Fu Bowen quickly led the people back to the county town - he instinctively had a premonition that these people were not the same as any pirates or merchants he had seen and heard in the past. What's going on, they couldn't have come to Gao just to rob the people of a few loads of salted fish and a few stones of rice!
Of course Wu Mingjin couldn't just listen to his words - it was common for warriors to exaggerate due to fear of war. Although he was panicking, he still sent a Zaoli from the county government who was familiar with the situation around Bo Pu to visit. When he came back at noon, the Zaoli couldn't even speak clearly. Mr. Wu knew from his confusing description that this group of pirates was very large, numbering in the thousands. After landing on the beach, there is a car that can be used to walk on the beach. There is no horse or ox in the car, and people can walk on it. Some cars can easily lift very large iron boxes and transport them back and forth... and there are many things he can't explain... In a word, this group of people is full of evil spirits.
Now he was anxious. He didn't really believe in witchcraft or anything like that. Wu Mingjin went to Hainan to serve as an official. On the way, he saw Portuguese ships and artillery in Guangdong, and also saw telescopes. He knew that people overseas had many wonderful things. Who knew whether these pirates would rely on some strange overseas things? To attack the county seat? In addition to the Zaoli yamen servants, the only available personnel in Lingao City were eighty civilians and twelve archers from the Inspection Department, which amounted to only more than a hundred people.
So he quickly asked the county magistrate Wu Ya to take the money to the rear post to move reinforcements. At this moment, Wu Ya came back and reported: Thousand households in the rear post agreed, and they will send thirty people and one cannon over tomorrow morning, but they will have to give each person a reward of one kilometer afterwards.
