Chapter 3o9 Capturing Cixi alive

At around 3 pm on July 1, 19o8, the major roads of large and small Jiaotong near Pudu Temple had been blocked by more than 1,000 People's Liberation Army soldiers, and no unrelated personnel, including foreigners and Japanese, were allowed to enter and exit.

Senior generals of the People's Liberation Army, Zheng Tiehao, "Divine Detachment" Huang Congli, Huo Yuanjia and others all arrived and prepared to attack Pudu Temple and capture the old demon Cixi alive.

At 3:30 pm, everyone was deploying an attack. The third son of the decent eunuch, who was beside Cixi, came to negotiate on behalf of Cixi.

After seeing Zheng Tiehao and others, the mistress bowed and said, "Dear generals, the situation is clear now, so we will tell you a long story. Lord Lafayette asked me to tell you that as long as you protect the Imperial Army and give Lord Lafayette a way out, Lord Lafayette is willing to accept any conditions you have."

"Hmph" "Divine Dart" Huang Congli said coldly: "What is the old Buddha? We know the old demon, but I have never heard of the old Buddha."

"Hehe" Zhuge Qingsong, the political commissar of the fourth reorganization division, continued: "For many years, the old witch took over the power and lived a happy and pleasant life. Now that we have destroyed it, are you unwilling to accept it?"

The mistress smiled awkwardly and said carefully: "General, the Empress Dowager is actually terminally ill and has not had much time. Now he only wants to survive. The Empress Dowager can satisfy you what you want. Even if the Emperor cannot agree, the Empress Dowager can agree..."

Before the mistress could finish her words, everyone laughed, and Lu Liwei said in a rough voice: "If his grandmother hadn't known that the demon queen had not had much time, we wouldn't have come to kill her like a market."

"The old witch brings harm to the country and the people, and he will be cut into pieces"

"Hehe, the eunuch, don't try to save your life."

"Killing or not killing is not enough to vent your anger"

The senior generals were full of murderous intent and shouted and scolded.

The mistress looked at the people in front of her in a daze, unable to understand why these people all had such great resentment towards Empress Dowager Cixi. It seemed that her life was worrying this time.

Seeing that the mistress was silent and huddled aside, Zheng Tiehao Surong, the commander-in-chief of the operation, said to him: "This little brother, since you are here, there is no need to go back. Next, you must cooperate with our work well. Otherwise, you should know the consequences."

As he said that, Zheng Tiehao also made a beheading gesture.

The mistress is only over 20 years old and is very clever. Seeing that the Imperial Army is so strong, she was worried that she would not be able to save her life. She was overjoyed when she heard this and replied sharply: "Please rest assured, General, the younger one will do their best."

"Okay," Zheng Tiehao waved his hand and said enthusiastically: "The old witch cherishes her life so much, we don't have to worry that she will seek flaws. Without further ado, attack immediately."

At less than 4 o'clock in the afternoon, more than 800 fully armed PLA soldiers attacked fiercely at the remaining Qing troops in Pudu Temple with absolute advantage.

In just one hour, hundreds of remaining Qing troops in Pudu Temple were basically eliminated, with only a dozen people left, guarding Cixi hiding in a large house in the temple and resisting stubbornly.

Of course, if it weren't for the order to capture the old witch Cixi alive, these remaining people would have gone to hell.

When Zheng Tiehao, Huo Yuanjia and others arrived, more than a dozen People's Liberation Army soldiers who rushed into the house to capture Cixi were being driven out.

Seeing Zheng Tiehao and others coming, Xia Xingshuo, who was in charge of the command here, reported: "The commander-in-chief, there are 6 or 7 eunuchs with extremely high martial arts skills in the house guarding the demon queen. I just sent the soldiers to attack for two rounds in turn. It is estimated that there should be 4 or 5 eunuchs with combat effectiveness in the house."

"How is our soldiers' losses?" Zheng Tiehao asked.

Xia Xingshuo replied: "Because you are fighting with cold weapons, more than 20 soldiers have been killed or killed."

"What a strong combat power," shouted senior generals such as Lu Liwei and Zhuge Qingsong.

Zheng Tiehao was about to order another attack, but Huo Yuanjia came out and said, "Brother Zheng, let Zhensheng and I go and solve the problem."

Huo Yuanjia's words were exactly what Liu Zhensheng wanted, and he continued with a quick look: "It's time to make some effort to see the fun of our master and apprentice for so long."

After spending a few days together, Zheng Tiehao already knew the power of Huo Yuanjia's disciples. At this time, it was the time to need them. Therefore, he did not refuse and nodded, "In this way, I will bother Master Huo and Brother Zhensheng."

Of course, Master Huo Yuanjia's disciple took action and was able to capture it. After destroying several eunuchs who had consumed a lot of physical strength and had high martial arts skills, they captured the lost old witch and Li Lianying alive.

...

In a large tile house near Chang'an Street in the west of Beijing, Emperor Guangxu, who thought he had escaped from the cage, was lying leisurely on the com. Listening to the continuous sound of gunfire from afar, Guangxu not only did not have any fear, but felt a pleasant feeling that he had never felt before.

After staying on the isolated island of Yingtai for so long, I finally regained my freedom today. This kind of joy and joyful mood that survives the disaster is difficult for ordinary people to understand.

What made Guangxu even more excited was that as long as the force that rescued Guangxu took action quickly, Empress Dowager Cixi, who had no time to react, would not only kill the demon queen and avenge the supreme imperial power again.

Thinking of the coming of the great treasure again and looking down on the crowd, Guangxu's heart was surging and moved almost uncontrollably

After walking back and forth in the room for a long time, after drinking a few cups of hot tea, Guangxu could barely calm down. He was idle, so he sat down and thought about it and found a few things that made him feel a little uncomfortable.

First, the men who came to save Guangxu last night were quite rude in speaking and acting in front of Guangxu.

However, the matter was urgent and he had to escape from Yingtai at that time. The situation was urgent, so it was understandable that he would not kneel down and kowtow.

Moreover, those men were very skilled and were like fish in the water in the lake. It was probably the wild tyrants invited by the Imperial Army to save Guangxu from the disaster.

Secondly, according to common sense, after coming to this house, in order to make Guangxu feel at ease, more important ministers or generals will come to meet him, and explain the ins and outs of the Imperial Army to him in detail.

However, this is not the case.

After the men sent Guangxu to this house, they whistled away without saying hello. Only a leader was left to take care of him with the guards in the house, but no important figures from the Imperial Army came to see him.

Could it be that all the senior figures of this Imperial Protection Army are so unruly? Or are they busy with noble people and even forgot to send someone to the ceremony?

Last point, I don’t know if Guangxu was too sensitive. He always felt that the leader standing outside always looked at him with a playful look when he brought someone to deliver food and tea.
