Chapter 2086: Betraying the country for glory (the stewed white water chicken is still delicious)(1/2)
In this way, with all the high-level officials of An Ning Dao destroyed, Fang Zheng and others returned to the imperial capital.
Chelsea also wrote a letter about what she saw this time, and then asked Ma'in to give it to Nadjeta. Although she couldn't go back to the night raid at the moment, it didn't violate the rules.
However, the current imperial capital is not peaceful, and the reason... is also very simple.
That is, a guy named "Zanke the Head" appeared in the outer city.
He also seems to be the holder of the Teigu. He wanders the streets killing people every night, and his method of killing is beheading, which is why he was given this nickname. Although the empire has indeed organized a hunter unit at the moment, for Zan
They didn't care about Ke's behavior in the outer city.
Of course, after all, the nobles are more concerned about their own safety. It doesn't matter to them how many civilians outside die. What's more, in this way, they can blame the deterioration of public security in the outer city on the assassins, saying that they all
It was these assassins who led to the deterioration of public security in the outer city, and this kind of thing happened.
If it had been a night attack, there might have been some problems, but for Fang Zheng, it was neither painful nor itchy at all.
They can do whatever they want, and what other people think is none of their business?
But for someone, this is a good trial.
"Are you ready? Chitong?"
"…………"
Facing Fang Zheng's inquiry, Chi Tong nodded. When everyone returned from Anning Road, the death aura around Chi Tong that looked like a cemetery had completely disappeared, and she no longer continued to cut the wooden sword. The entire
The person became the same as before, but Fang Zheng knew that this did not mean that Chi Tong's sword practice had failed.
"Then, today is your first mission. You know, you know, the beheaded Zank who haunts the imperial capital. Kill him."
As he said this, Fang Zheng picked up Murasame and handed it over.
"You know what to do."
"clear."
Chitong took Murasame and looked at Fang Zheng.
"I'll get the job done."
For the assassins, it is not difficult to find the beheaded Zank. Now the imperial capital has become their territory, especially at night. Guys like Zank who wander the streets looking for prey will be killed by assassins in almost no time.
They noticed their whereabouts, and then Fang Zheng arranged for Chi Tong to take charge of sniping, while he took Ma Yin and Chelsea to a high place to watch the battlefield.
"Speaking of which, is the swordsmanship you taught Chi Tong really useful?"
Looking at Chi Tong who was walking silently on the street, Ma Yin asked doubtfully. In her impression, skills need to be practiced. Like during the night raid, Chi Tong would go to the back every day.
Training was carried out in the training ground. But here in Fangzheng, Ma Yin never saw Chitong practice swords. She just held a piece of wood and whittled the wooden sword there every day.
Then after Ma Yin came back from delivering the news from the night raid, Chitong went to Fang Zheng and said that she had learned it, but Fang Zheng nodded and agreed to let her go on the mission without even checking.
The feeling this gave Ma Yin was so weird that she didn't even know what to say.
"Don't worry, I believe she has really learned it. This is a feeling."
"...Why don't I feel this way?"
"This is normal. After all, this is a rather neurotic thing."
Fang Zheng also laughed out loud at Ma Yin's muttering. In fact, it was natural that Ma Yin didn't understand. In the world before Fang Zheng, it was easy to see the level of martial arts of Jin Yong and Huang Yi, and they did need to practice diligently.
.It’s just that the Jin Yong style of martial arts focuses more on technique, while the Huang Yi style of martial arts focuses more on artistic conception.
For example, one day when I looked at the moon in the well water, I suddenly had the inspiration to create a set of knife skills that coincided with the philosophy of nature, heaven and earth.
But in comparison, the ancient dragon type's martial arts are very neurotic. If the Huang Yi type's martial arts is about understanding nature, then the ancient dragon type's martial arts is a bit like digging into oneself and then digging into the recruitment of psychosis.
For example, "Love is always more acceptable than hate, but he has to hate!" or "Because you want to die more than others, of course you can't kill people."
To put it bluntly, those who practice Gulong Kung Fu are generally philosophers. Of course, philosophers will end up either committing suicide or being committed suicide.
After all, eight out of ten people in the philosophy department of the university jump off the building, and the remaining two fail to do so.
Take sword training as an example. If Chitong is learning Jin Yong swordsmanship, then she must first demonstrate it in front of Fang Zheng, and then ask Fang Zheng for guidance.
And if it is the Huang Yi type, then Chitong will fight Fang Zheng, and then taste whether he has a thorough understanding of this swordsmanship in the fight.
But for the ancient dragon type, that's the case.
Chitong: "I understand."
Fang Zheng: "Understood?"
Chitong: "I understand."
Fang Zheng: "If you say you understand, then you understand."
OK, end.
If you put this thing outside for people to see, they would think it was two lunatics having a conversation.
"Speaking of which, I still don't know why you joined the revolutionary army. Anyway, it's just idle time. Why don't you tell me and listen?"
It was quite boring for the three of us to blow the cold wind here at night, so Fang Zheng opened his mouth and spoke. When he heard what Fang Zheng said, Ma Yin glared at him. Although Fang Zheng seemed to be just asking an ordinary question, there was a "What's wrong" in his tone.
I can still hear the meaning of "saying out unhappy things to make everyone happy".
However, she was unhappy, so Ma Yin still spoke.
"I was born in the border area of the west, and I am a mixed-race child of a foreign ethnic group. I have always been discriminated against in the city, and no one recognized me. It was a miserable childhood, but the revolutionary army also forged ties with the foreign ethnic groups in the west.
After signing the alliance, as long as a new country is established, the two countries will establish diplomatic relations. The differences between countries will no longer exist. In that case, no more children will suffer the same situation as me..."
Saying this, Ma Yin clenched her fists.
"I will never let anyone suffer discrimination like me again!"
Hearing Ma Yin's words, Fang Zheng frowned.
"The alliance between the revolutionary army and the foreign nations in the west? What kind of alliance?"
This time, it was Chelsea who answered Fang Zheng’s question.
"To put it simply, the revolutionary army promised to return the lands of foreign nations occupied by the empire after seizing power."
"……………………"
Facing Chelsea's answer, Fang Zheng was silent for a moment.
"In other words, the revolutionary army asked foreign forces to send troops to invade the empire at the cost of ceding the empire's territory?"
"Haha? What are you talking about? That was originally the land of foreign nations!"
Ma Yin suddenly shouted in displeasure, but Fang Zheng just glanced at her.
"But it was occupied by the Empire, right?"
"Yes, the empire has occupied the lands of those foreign nations. It is precisely because of this that we are constantly at war with foreign nations, and mixed-race people like me are discriminated against..."
"If the covenant is really implemented, are you sure the discrimination will not become more serious?"
"……………what do you mean?"
Hearing this, Ma Yin was stunned for a moment and looked at Fang Zheng.
"It's very simple. As you said, the discrimination against foreign ethnic groups by border people is related to war. This is normal. When two people of different ethnic groups and different countries fight, there will be casualties on each other. If there are casualties, there will be hatred. If there are hatred, there will be hatred.
It will lead to discrimination and abuse. But at least the empire has gained actual territory, which will also give those residents on the border a feeling that their sacrifice was not in vain. But now... you say that the revolutionary army will wipe out those border residents with a stroke of a pen.
The land that the people's relatives bought with their blood is returned to a foreign nation? Do you think they can accept it?"
"This...I...this..."
"Furthermore, this covenant also means that the revolutionary army cannot fight against the empire alone and can only recruit foreign aid. Then if the revolutionary army succeeds in seizing power, then those foreign nations will be able to arrogantly say in front of the imperial people, 'If it weren't for us
Help, you have no way to overthrow that cruel emperor' and the like, what do you want the people of the empire to think? When the people of the empire see those foreign nations arrogantly pretending to be saviors in front of them, do you think they will accept it readily?
?Rather than discriminate against those mixed-race people even more? Vent all your resentment and anger on them?"
"……………………"
Faced with Fang Zheng's inquiry, Ma Yin was dumbfounded. She had indeed not thought about this issue, but now that Fang Zheng mentioned it, she seemed to feel that things were not as simple as she thought. If according to Fang Zheng's statement, then in the revolution
After the military seized power, instead of getting better, the situation of those mixed-race people would actually get worse?
"But, but the revolutionary army can issue laws to protect those mixed-race children from being discriminated against..."
"If the revolutionary army seizes power, then they will be the rulers of the empire, and mixed-race people are considered 'outsiders' in the eyes of the imperial people. So what you mean is to let the imperial regime help foreigners deal with their own citizens? Do you think the revolutionary army
The regime is too stable and you want to overthrow it again?"
"Well……………"
Ma Yin opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say, while Chelsea patted Ma Yin on the shoulder, narrowed her eyes, and looked at Fang Zheng thoughtfully.
"So you think what the Revolutionary Army did was wrong?"
"Of course, I don't know much about the Revolutionary Army, but from the current point of view, not cooperating with the Revolutionary Army is really the right choice. No matter what the reason is, liaison with foreign countries is the most unacceptable and tolerated."
Just like Wu Sangui opened Shanhaiguan, although there are many theories in history, some said it was for Chen Yuanyuan, some said it was to deal with Li Zicheng, some said that the Ming Dynasty was sorry for Wu Sangui, but in any case, no matter what purpose, motivation or motivation Wu Sangui had
Or whatever the background is, he will be nailed to the pillar of shame as a traitor and will never be able to think about it again.
