Chapter 145 Departure
After leaving the county government office, Chen Gu brought Fobao and his party back to the courtyard where Liu Er once lived.

The courtyard wall that was originally blown open by a cannon has been repaired, but the inside is still a mess. Looking at all this, Chen Gu feels that things have changed a lot.

As soon as he came to this world, he met Liu Er. Although Chen Gu was full of anger at that time, Liu Er finally took him in.

Maybe Liu Er felt that someone like Chen Gu was just right to be an executioner, and also suitable for rebellion.

Chen Gu did not disappoint Liu Er. Not only did he practice his swordsmanship diligently, but after killing Addis, the strength of the mountain stronghold also increased rapidly.

"Liu Er should be smiling in his grave!" The sour scholar patted Chen Jue on the shoulder and comforted him, "The old guy has never forgotten to fight against the Qing Dynasty, but he has been dormant for his whole life. I am afraid only he knows the frustration in his heart.

It was you who gave him hope. These few months should be the happiest months in his life since he left his hometown. He has suffered too much in his life, and he would not have lived long even if what happened later had not happened.

Chen Gu, you have done a great job!"

"Have you done well enough?" Chen Gu said with a wry smile.

"Of course!" Lao Piao raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Why else do you think the brothers obey you?"

"Then do it better!" Chen Gu smiled and said.

After staying there for one night, the next day, Chen Gu stayed in the house and chopped incense sticks with a ghost-head knife for a day, and then stayed there for another night.

When he went out on the morning of the third day, Chen Gu looked back at the bamboo rocking chair under the eaves, and seemed to see Liu Er sitting on it, still sitting there with an expressionless face and closed eyes in deep thought.

"Master, I am about to leave Jiangjin County. Please bless me with victory!" Chen Gu said with a smile.

"Let's go!" Lao Piao urged outside, "This is bullshit victory. We don't even have a flag. We are rebelling openly, so shouldn't we get a flag to help us out?"

"There really should be a flag!" Chen Gu mounted his horse and said with a smile, "Go get a bamboo pole!"

By the time Lao Piao got the bamboo poles, Chen Gu had already arrived outside the city on horseback. At this time, there were 3,400 soldiers standing outside the city.

Yunhua, Scar, Roadblock, Sanlang and other generals of the Fobao Army, as well as Feng Yuanqiao, the captain of the Sword and Shield Battalion, Jiang Zhenghai, the captain of the Spear Battalion, Zhou Shi and other generals of the Green Camp, stood in front of the army waiting for Chen the Executioner.

Among them, all the members of the Fobao Army had mules and horses. On the Green Camp side, Feng Yuanqiao's Sword and Shield Battalion had half mules and horses and half donkeys. Zhou Shi's Archery Battalion also had more than a hundred donkeys. Jiang Zhenghai's Spear Battalion had no animals for transportation.

After looking at the army, Chen Gu handed the stack of red cloth in his hand to Lao Piao, then drove his horse to Bai Wencheng, Suan Xiucai and others, but his eyes were looking at Bai Yunqing.

There were nine middle-aged men standing behind Bai Yunqing. Well, some of them were already old men. Chen Gui knew without any guessing that they should be the heads of the ten major clans in Jiangjin.

They were hiding from me before, but now they are coming out one after another.

Bai Yunqing smiled, bowed first, and said, "Bai Yunqing, greetings to the leader!"

The others packed their bags one by one, and the heads of the families each reported their names.

Chen Gu knew Bai Yunqing among these people. After all, Chen Gu once wanted to kill him, so he would naturally find a way to recognize him first. He didn't know the others, but he had heard of their names. Today, he finally met them in person. Yesterday, Bai Wencheng came to Chen Gu to discuss Bai Yunqing's appointment as the county magistrate of Jiangjin County. Chen Gu did not refuse. Compared with the still immature Bai Wencheng, it was naturally better for Bai Yunqing to be willing to come out and do things.

Anyway, Chen Gu has already built the framework, and as long as it does not violate his own rules, he can let Bai Yunqing operate.

Chen Gu did not dismount, but just sat on his horse and bowed in return, "Gentlemen, please do not be polite. The army is about to set out, so I will not talk to you any more. Jiangjin County is entrusted to you. Please remember the sixteen-character foundation of our China.

Especially the first eight characters, as long as you act according to the first eight characters, no matter what happens, Chen Ju will never blame you, otherwise, we will have a good talk at that time."

After Chen Gu finished speaking, he shouted loudly: "All soldiers, listen up and turn around!"

Yesterday, the Democratic Progressive Party held an emergency training for a day on military appearance and posture, which also included subjects such as turning, marching in step, and running. At this time, no one made any mistakes.

After the army turned to face him, Chen Gu shouted: "The Qing Dynasty is unjust, corrupt officials are rampant, and the people are living in misery. Today, I, Chen Gu, will raise my three-foot-long sword at Jiangjin and restore order to the world.

People-oriented, equal distribution of land and low taxation, the emperor under the law, pioneering and enterprising! "

"Put people first, distribute land equally and lower taxes, the emperor is under the law, and we should be pioneering and enterprising!" The soldiers followed Chen Gu and shouted the declaration three times.

"Let's go!" Chen Gu shouted, and then led the vanguard westward.

Lao Piao raised the flagpole in his hand and rode his horse closely behind Chen Ke. The five-star red flag on the flagpole fluttered in the wind and made a rustling sound.

"What does this flag represent?" Bai Yunqing couldn't help but ask his son beside him.

Bai Wencheng shook his head and said, "I don't know. Buddhist treasures don't have such flags, and I have never seen one before."

Bian Shichun frowned and thought for a while, then said, "This piece of cloth was specially ordered by Chen Jue a long time ago, dyed with cinnabar. I never knew why he needed such a piece of cloth. I never thought it was used to make a flag. As for what the five stars on it represent, I don't know either."

"Since he was the one who raised this flag, let's also erect a similar flag on the city wall of Jiangjin County. Haha, since we have already chosen the team, we should make it clearer." Bai Yunqing said with a smile.

Bai Wencheng thought for a moment and asked, "Father, aren't you afraid that other states and counties will attack Jiangjin County?"

"Hehe, we in Jiangjin County are no pushovers. Ten thousand-jin cannons will be delivered to the county seat today. Xing Honghai also has 1,600 green soldiers. Chen Qi has already sent people to various towns to form joint defense teams.

I heard that all the captains are regular soldiers sent out from the Buddhist treasures. There are more than a hundred towns in Jiangjin County. It won’t be long before we will have nearly ten thousand troops.

Hehe, if others don't come to provoke us, I would have wanted to lead people to fight them off." The head of the Bian family laughed.

Although the Bian family never understood why the rifle in Chen Gu's hand was so powerful, they still imitated a lot of rifles. With the reference of repeating guns and submachine guns, they actually made bullets.

Although their rifles were not as powerful as the one in Chen Gu's hand, their speed was almost the same, firing one shot every two or three seconds, and their power was similar to that of a shotgun. This was enough. If they could not defeat Chen Gu, they would have no problem defeating the Green Camp, not to mention the yamen runners and wealthy families in other states and counties.
