And Pei Yun stretched out his hand and pointed to the north: "I just received news over there that a merchant of Han Dynasty was threatened. Brother Xingman, please come and visit me?"
"Okay, leave half of the men and the rest follow me!" Wang Shichong was unambiguous.
They rushed in just to steal people's heads, so it's no fun to stand guard here.
Pei Yun looked at Wang Shiqi and his troops heading north menacingly, and shook his head slightly.
Suddenly he felt that he did not need to worry about his compatriots, but should worry about the heads of Lin Yi's rebel soldiers.
These poor monkeys, I hope they don't mess with people they shouldn't mess with.
Otherwise, I'm afraid I will die without a burial place.
Pei Yun, who was born as a civil servant, was kind-hearted after all.
But this kind of kindness is only limited to the speed of falling the knife.
People who are not of my race must have different minds. As a pure-blooded Han, Pei Yun has no regard for these southerners who even look very different from the Chinese people. According to later anthropological research, although the Linyi Zhan people of this era have Han ethnicity,
The ancestry is mixed, but the Austronesian ancestry should still be the main one, and the gap with the Mongoloid Chinese ethnic group is obvious.
Therefore, Pei Yun naturally could not say that he really cared about the lives of these Linyi people who were not of my race.
And on the street in the north of the city, about two to three hundred feet away, a group of rioters were rushing toward a house.
This is the largest house in the north of the city. To be more precise, it should be a temple, a Buddhist temple. However, the architectural style of this temple is very different from the more common Tianzhu-like architectural style in Linyi, with yellow walls.
Flying eaves are a typical architectural style of Chinese Jiangnan temples.
This is a gathering place for Han merchants. The Chinese people have moved back to their homeland since ancient times. Although they have traveled across the ocean, the customs of their hometown have not been lost. This temple is where the Han people usually go to offer incense and pray for the blessing of the Buddha.
Because Buddhism has the same beliefs and is of the same origin, Lin Yiguo did not ban this temple, which was very different from its own temple. Now it has become the last barrier for the Han people to face mobs and rebels.
Moreover, the Han people live here densely, and the tablets of their ancestors are basically enshrined in this temple. Therefore, this temple is not only a place where people burn incense and worship Buddha, but also a place for family sacrifices.
For the Han people in this era, religion can be changed, but the ancestral temple is something that must be protected with blood.
"We have been operating here for more than a hundred years, and the legacy of our ancestors cannot be destroyed in the hands of our descendants today." In front of the temple gate, an old man on crutches had a trembling figure, but his voice was sonorous and powerful.
A young man with a stick in his hand gathered around him, staring with astonishment at the Linyi people who rushed out of their homes, holding gold, silver and jewelry in their hands.
Wealth is still secondary, the main thing is people. Now the women, children, old and weak from every household have retreated into this temple where they usually place their hopes, and these young people at the door will be their last guardians.
At this point, not even the Buddha can protect them.
The Han army came too slowly!
The old man silently watched the rebels getting closer and closer.
Those rebels obviously also knew that the real valuable wealth of the Han people had been transferred to the temple in advance, so they could rob people and property by rushing in!
"I will never retreat!" The young people raised sticks and kitchen knives.
The weapons in their hands are not even as good as the real swords and guns in the hands of those rebels, but their courage to protect their families and ancestral heritage is very high.
"Bang!" A muffled sound suddenly sounded from the other side of the street.
Smoke filled the air, and the red-clothed Han troops marched in neat steps along the streets.
One row squatted down, and the next row fired, row after row, and the insurrectionists who rushed towards us fell down one by one on the street.
"Reinforcements, reinforcements are coming!"
"My big man's army has arrived!"
After a moment of surprise, the Han people cheered.
The old patriarch who was in charge also breathed a sigh of relief at this time.
After all, the Han people are just a minority here. If they really fight, even if these rebels are not organized, they can definitely gain the upper hand through their numerical advantage. The Han people will not take any advantage at all, so the old patriarch has already made plans to fight today.
Prepare to spill blood here!
Fortunately, the army finally arrived.
"Let go!" Wang Shichong ordered loudly.
He heard the cheers of the people and saw the embarrassment of the people in Linyi.
Protecting his compatriots, opening up new territories, and killing these ungrateful monkeys, Wang Shichong had to admit that he felt an indescribable sense of accomplishment.
As the army walked along, looking at the fearful expressions of the Linyi people and the cheers of the Han people, Wang Shichong could gradually understand why His Majesty said he wanted to protect these people, and why His Majesty wanted them to know the Han nation.
Because when you go outside the scope of China's nine states, there are no southerners and northerners, no Jiankang people and Chang'an people. Everyone has a common identity, Han people. In this desolate land, there are only people of the same ancestry and origin.
Only Chinese people can make everyone feel a sense of belonging and open their hearts.
In this land outside Kyushu, anyone who is Han can be called "fellow fellow".
The fellow villagers burst into tears when they saw the fellow villagers.
Wang Shichong understood more and more what a big man meant.
This country is not just a country for one person or a few people, but a country for all Han people. They were born and raised here, and their lives have been linked to the word "Han". Unless they are shameless in this life,
Betrayal, otherwise they will all be Han Chinese.
The strength of the Han Dynasty is not only good for one or two people, but also for everyone in the entire nation, because when the Han Dynasty becomes strong, troops and warships will appear wherever one of its citizens is bullied, and will
Those clowns slapped the ground hard. And the strength of a big man cannot be achieved by just one or two people. What is needed is the recognition and joint efforts of everyone.
This is the true concept of nation and country.
"There aren't many of them, so charge forward!"
"Defeat them, and there will be a lot of gold, silver, treasures and beauties!"
"kill!"
The Linyi rebels launched an attack here again. Apparently they realized that the Han army musketeers who came for reinforcements only had a few dozen people in total, and there were hundreds of them. They could crush them just by relying on their numerical advantage!
As for the muskets, in the eyes of these red-eyed rebels, there is no difference between them and arrows, as long as they are not the ones who fall down by then!
The corners of Wang Shichong's mouth raised, and a sneer appeared.
