Master Yuan, start!

After traveling through time, the braid that had been with Yuan Shikai for eight years suddenly broke off.

"boom"

There was also the rumbling sound of artillery coming from the seaside. The position where the Wehrmacht had just been stationed was now being ravaged by artillery.

However, no one cared how many shots the Dingyuan ship fired. They were all staring at Yuan Xiangcheng in front of them.

Seeing the scene of cutting the braids, not only Ming Ye and Wang Shizhen widened their eyes, but even the surrounding National Defense Army soldiers were shocked.

Although the Red Confucian Society often promoted the ideas of respecting Confucianism, ancestors, nationalism, and democracy and republic in the military, it had never been so blatant.

In most cases, the political instructors of the Red Confucian Society would not take the initiative to invite soldiers, but they would not refuse if the soldiers were willing to attend.

Who would have thought that the chief instructor of the Red Confucian Society and the president of the National Defense Army would actually cut off his own braid with a knife.

At this moment, many soldiers felt their hearts surge and their blood boil when they saw this.

They searched around with their eyes, staring at their comrades' swords and ready to attack!

"Listen to me." Yuan Xiangcheng reached out to stop him in time: "Although the Qing Dynasty is crumbling, the building has not collapsed. Don't cut off the braid lightly."

He shook his head to loosen his braid, and in the moonlight, half of his black hair, which reached his ears, fluttered in the cold wind.

However, Yuan Xiangcheng stared straight ahead, unmoved.

"I, Yuan Shikai, cut off my queue not to prove that I was unwilling to be a subject, but to show my determination to rebuild China.

Now the land of China is ablaze with flames, and the southeast of Zhili is full of smoke. If the Qing Dynasty falls again at this time, with foreigners at the side, the country may be divided!

I intend to take power after Emperor Fu leaves, recuperate in Korea and the Northeast, and wait for the future.

"What do you think of this?" I will then lead 50 Tiger Soldiers and march south to wipe out the foul smell of the barbarians from the land of China.

Ming Ye was the first to react and shouted loudly: "Okay!"

However, the atmosphere had already been heated to a climax. Even without Ming Ye's applause, all the soldiers present had already been impressed by Yuan Xiangcheng's wise move of cutting off his braid.

Wang Shizhen knelt down first, followed by Ming Ye. One by one, two by two, three by four, hundreds of soldiers knelt down.

"Long live the Chief Instructor, long live the President!"

$226

Without any prior agreement, they all shouted "Long live Yuan Shikai" to Yuan Xiangcheng.

Yuan Xiangcheng was not happy but angry, and grabbed a Type 88 Hanyang rifle.

"Stand up, don't kneel!"

"boom!"

Seeing that no one stood up, Yuan Xiangcheng fired three more shots!

"Stand up, don't kneel!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

"Even the Emperor isn't worthy of your kneeling, let alone me!"

Ming Ye, who was leaning on the ground, looked up and sideways, and saw that Yuan Xiangcheng was really furious, so he hurriedly stood up.

Seeing that Yuan Xiangcheng was still furious, the soldiers followed Ming Ye's example, slowly straightened their backs and stood up.

Yuan Xiangcheng raised his finger and promised the soldiers in front of him:

“I went south this time for only three things.

Entry

Or fucking enter the customs!"

There was a sound of clashing military uniforms, and the onlookers knelt on the ground again, but this time they did not shout "Long live!"

"I will follow the orders of the President's Chief Instructor!"

The anger on Yuan Xiangcheng's face dissipated, but he still chose to fire a shot: "Stand up, don't kneel!"

A moment later, all the soldiers around him stood up.

Yuan Xiangcheng turned around, turned over and made a layup, igniting the fire.

"Let's go and capture Shanhaiguan!"

Driven by the land breeze and facing the rising sun, the hot air balloon floats into the distance.

Chapter 143: Prison!

Hearing the rumbling sound of artillery coming from the northeast, De Xing'a laughed wildly:

"Hahaha, Yuan Ni was bombarded by the Dingyuan warship for more than a dozen times. He must have been shattered into pieces by now."

Before the soldiers who went out to investigate the situation came back, De Xing'a could not wait to run up to the city gate to see Yuan Ni's "miserable condition"

At dawn, the patrol soldiers who had been up all night dozed off against the wall on top of the city wall.

Dexing'a had no time to deal with these people, so he anxiously stuck his head out from the parapet, squinting his eyes to witness the new era of Sarhu.

However, what greeted him were the determined steps of the national defense soldiers from the four provinces of Baishan, Heishui and Shanhe.

Yuan Xiangcheng was floating in the air more than 200 meters high, his eyes as sharp as torches, overlooking the National Defense Army soldiers who were like blue waves.

His body is as small as an ant, but his faith is as great as a giant.

"Come on!"

An infantry tent captain, who was greatly inspired by Yuan Shikai's cutting of his braid, led the charge.

In the dim light of the rising sun, Shanhaiguan, after an absence of more than 240 years, once again welcomed the Han men.

The sound of artillery fire from the other side of the sea provided the best cover for the footsteps and shouts of tens of thousands of people.

"This, this is"

De Xing'a's eyes widened in disbelief. Yuan Ni charged? Why did Yuan Ni dare to attack the city?

Isn't he afraid of my teammates?

The sound of cannons was still roaring on the other side of the sea. De Xing'a looked towards the beach to the east. The hazy sea fog covered up the traces of the giant ship.

The sound of the artillery can be clearly heard, but where exactly did the shells land?

Dexing'a was deeply puzzled.

At this time, the patrol soldiers of Shanhaiguan finally discovered the charging National Defense Army and immediately rang the city guard bell.

"When" "When" "When"

The Jiashen Fourth Army defending the city also took quick action. More than ten cannons were pushed to the recess of the city wall and fired at the enemies below.

"Master De, please go down quickly! Yuan's army is attacking the city. Don't get hurt by stray bullets!"

Song Qing ran up to the city wall and pulled Dexing down.

The two had just walked down the stairs when a bomb fell from the sky and landed where De Xing'a had just stood.

With a "bang", yellow smoke exploded, giving the artilleryman who was aiming and shooting a whole body barbecue on the back.

"Ah, ah!!!"

"My back, my back!"

Yuan Xiangcheng's fellow Henan native stretched out his hands to his back and scratched it everywhere, peeling off layers of bloody skin wherever his nails scratched.

In just a moment, the man fell to the ground without a sound.

Yellow smoke gradually spread.

Although the artillery pieces far away were not directly affected by the explosives, they were still covered by the yellow smoke produced by the nitroglycerin explosion.

"cough, cough"

First there was a violent cough, followed by a severe headache and a throbbing heartbeat.

The toxicity of nitroglycerin made it impossible for the artillerymen on the city walls to continue aiming, and they could only run to a safe place to breathe fresh air.

"What kind of shells are falling from the sky?" Song Qing transferred: 4) Si, Liu Dexie and the rebels threw themselves into the sky.

All I saw were yellow clouds floating in the sky above the city walls, and black dots falling from them.

As soon as it touched the ground, the black spot exploded quickly, filling the air with thick yellow smoke.

Although most of the black spots fell outside the city walls or on the open space inside the city, a considerable number of them exploded on the city gates.

"What kind of magic is this? Bodhisattva, Buddha, please bless me, and may all demons retreat!" De Xing'a was frightened and started talking nonsense in the middle of the battle.

Song Qing saw clearly that what fell was clearly a bomb. He wondered what method Yuan Shikai used to allow the Kongming lantern to carry people!

But there was no time to think about it, as more bombs exploded in the distance, and Song Qing could only drag De Xing'a back to a safe place.

Yuan Xiangcheng could see these scenes clearly from the sky above.

Seeing that the bomb was effective and a cannon on the city wall went silent, Yuan Xiangcheng quickly picked up another bag of yellow explosives and threw it down.

Unfortunately, due to the wind, Yuan Xiangcheng's hot air balloon quickly floated over the city wall and flew over the city.

Yuan Xiangcheng's subsequent explosives only destroyed a few roofs and set fire to a few thatched houses.

"It's okay, let's do it again!"

Yuan Xiangcheng looked towards the sun in the east through the thick fog.

However, no matter how thick the sea fog was, it could not block the sunlight from shining on the earth. The temperature rose, and a sea breeze gradually blew near Shanhaiguan, blowing the hot air balloon back.

The hot air balloon attack team landed successfully.

Except for one person who was unlucky and was blown to the north mountain, the rest returned safely.

Yuan Xiangcheng patted the balloon soldiers who had taken off with him and said, "You are truly heroes for what you did today!"

"I dare not call myself brave to walk with the President-General!" Several people raised their heads and saluted.

"Alright, let's search for him. When the wind starts to blow again tomorrow morning, we'll go bomb him again!"

Yuan Xiangcheng made an agreement with everyone and returned to the command position.
