Chapter 205: Great Hall

"Stop, what are you doing?"

"Asshole, do you know who I am?"

"Oh, stop hitting me."

"It hurts!"

"Please stop fighting!"

From the initial toughness to the final begging for mercy, it took less than a minute. In addition, the first thirty seconds were because Chang Lin was too fat, making it difficult for the four veterans to attack him.

By the time the four veterans reacted and attacked Changlin's head, soft spots, armpits, thighs, and fingers, Changlin could no longer hold on.

After the severe beating, the four veterans of the special forces battalion were exhausted and panting. Chang Lin wailed continuously. When he got up, his face was not only bruised and swollen, but also covered with tears and snot.

Chen Jue was amused and said, "You should know that you are a prisoner of war. They treated you well in Jiangjin County, you should be grateful, instead of taking it for granted. Do you think they are afraid of you or the Qing Dynasty behind you?
If they were really afraid of the Qing court, they would not have followed me, Chen Gu, in rebellion. As for saying that they are afraid of you, Chang Lin?
How do you, Changlin, compare with Fuca Mingliang, Lebao, Delentang and Adis?
Now the grass on the graves of Adis, Lebao and Delentai is already ten feet high, and Fucha Mingliang is feeding the fish in the river. How would you like to die?"

"Have mercy!" Chang Lin shouted immediately.

"That's right. For the sake of survival, it's not shameful to bow your head. If I fell into your hands, I'm afraid begging for mercy would be useless. If you, Changlin, beg for mercy, I, Chen Gu, can still spare your life."

Chen Gu sighed and continued, "I am not here to beat you up, but to inform you that in half a month, my Huaxia Department will hold a legislative meeting, and at that time, not only my Han people will participate.

People from other ethnic groups will also join in the discussion, and you, Changlin, will represent the Manchus, so prepare well.

If I invade the capital in the future, whether you, the Manchus, will be driven out of the Great Wall and hunted to the ends of the earth, just like the Mongols were driven out of the Central Plains by Zhu Yuanzhang at the turn of the Yuan and Ming dynasties, or whether you will continue to stay there and live a stable life, will depend on your performance in the Legislative Assembly. "

As human beings, we all have joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness. We are all born by our parents and raised by our parents. We all hope to live a peaceful and tranquil life, whether we are Han or Manchu.

Chen Gou's goal was to overthrow the Qing court, not to kill all the Manchus. Chen Gou was originally willing to let the Manchus leave the city of Chengdu.

Unfortunately, the war situation changed too quickly at that time, and Chen Gu needed to personally intercept the enemy troops on the Shu Road, so he handed over the task of attacking Chengdu to Xing Honghai.

As a result, Xing Honghai's family was beheaded on the battlefield. Afterwards, Xing Honghai allowed the rebel soldiers to enter the city for revenge. Even officials and wealthy families suffered a devastating disaster, not to mention the situation in the whole city.

The outside world will not put the blame for this tragedy on Xing Honghai, but will only think that it was instigated by Chen the Executor. Chen the Executor is essentially making Xing Honghai bear the blame.

But since it had already happened, Chen Gui was too lazy to deny anything.

This kind of thing must be avoided as much as possible. After all, Chen Gui’s declaration of nation-building does not allow such a thing to happen.

As for the Manchus, Chen Gu needed someone to persuade them to surrender. Even if it was just to persuade them to surrender after the fact, he still needed someone to do it.

And at the moment, Changlin is the most suitable candidate.

"But if I participate in your legislative assembly, what will happen to my family in the capital?" Chang Lin said pitifully.

"Let's focus on the present!" Chen Gu frowned and said, "Your emperor is known as a benevolent monarch, and you were captured on the battlefield. You surrendered out of necessity. I think your emperor will not make things too difficult for your family. At least you will not be sentenced to death. And I've told you that participating in the Legislative Assembly is to fight for the interests of your entire Manchu race. When I rule the world, I think the entire Manchu race will be grateful to you."

Chang Lin's face was full of bitterness. He wanted to refuse but didn't have the courage. In the end, he could only nod silently.

Chen Gu thought for a moment, then continued, "After the legislative assembly, you can go to Mancheng in Chengdu. Mancheng will still be yours, but you will need to be self-reliant in the future."

"Is the Mancheng of Chengdu still there?" Chang Lin asked in surprise.

"Of course it's still there!" Chen Gu nodded and said, "After Xing Honghai left Chengdu, Bai Wencheng and his men moved into Chengdu and did not treat the whole city differently. Instead, they treated it as an ordinary area, and the people inside were no different from those outside.

Work was also assigned to them, and as long as they were willing to work, there would be no problem with food and drink.

There are tens of thousands of people in the city. You can become the city lord. Apart from the army, I can let the whole city of Chengdu govern itself, that is, you can manage yourselves. "

Chang Lin couldn't help but nodded. If that was the case, even the emperor couldn't hold him accountable. After all, he was enduring humiliation for the sake of tens of thousands of people in Chengdu.

Legislative representatives from nearby prefectures and counties have already arrived in Chongqing.

There will definitely be a lot of people participating in this legislative assembly, so Chen not only arranged for the army to build temporary bamboo houses, but also to make various furniture such as bamboo beds and bamboo chairs.

Masons were also recruited to build a meeting hall.

The address of the Great Hall was chosen to be outside Tongyuan Gate, covering an area of ​​15 acres, which is a building about 100 meters long and wide.

the next day.

Ai Laosan brought Wu Qing'er and Qin Ling to Chongqing.

Wu Qing'er was close to her due date and her belly was bulging terribly. Qin Ling's belly was also quite big, so the two of them were carried to the dock on a stretcher.

Seeing Chen Gu, the two were about to struggle to get down, but Chen Gu calmed them down and said with a smile: "Just go directly into the city, there is no need for any formalities."

"It's my fault. Please forgive me, sir!" Wu Qing'er said apologetically.

However, Chen Gu could not help but smile bitterly. In front of him, Wu Qing'er always kept a low profile, which made Chen Gu uncomfortable. On the contrary, it was the innocent Qin Ling who made Chen Gu feel more relaxed.

"Let's go into the city first!" said Chen Gu.

On the way, Qin Ling asked curiously, "Master, have you conquered the whole of Sichuan?"

"It should be about the same. It's not clear yet, but there is no one in the entire Sichuan region who can threaten us. The Qing court will not be able to attack Sichuan in a short period of time.

At present, Dajianlu, Fengjie and Guangyuan are still being pacified, but my family has an absolute advantage in all three places, so don't worry!" Chen Gu said with a smile.

"My Lord is really amazing. He conquered the whole of Sichuan in a short time." Qin Ling sighed proudly, and then asked: "After conquering Sichuan, will you come to fight again?"
