evil slave

After running to the stone house, Ge Geli realized that there were only four of the more than 100 soldiers following him. 【】Two of these four people are my own Goshha, an old man brought over from Prince Kang's mansion, and one is the head of the village, that is, in charge of cooking, and the other is my good partner of Pai Gow , Zaba Shu, a Baerhu man who helped him collect copper coins and distribute copper coins every time.

"Where are people?! Where did they go!"

Ge Geli was furious, not angry, but furious. The terrain of the stone house is very good, and the fortifications are well done. There are so many firearms, it is impossible to attack if you want to. As long as you survive this night, tomorrow will be easy.But now there are only five people including myself, and we can't keep a stone house. How can we last until tomorrow morning!

Ge Geli didn't realize that it was his own fault that caused his soldiers to scatter like birds and beasts. He only said that these soldiers were greedy for life and afraid of death, and they all died. The more they thought about it, the more angry they became. Then he walked back and forth hurriedly and made a stuffy fire.

Ge Geli didn't care, but the others were in a hurry. Seeing that Master Zuo Ling was so preoccupied with getting angry, he didn't make up his mind. If he continued to stand like this stupidly, the red-haired ghost would arrive as soon as he said it, and everyone would have to throw their lives at this time. Now, the older one of the two Ghoshhas persuaded him: "Master, there are too many red-haired ghosts, everyone has run away, and I and we have also run away. Don't the Han people have a saying that they are called to stay?" The green hills are there, so we are not afraid of lack of firewood."

Hearing what Geshha said, the leader of Daur quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, my lord, let's run away, and it will not be too late to bring in rescuers and come back to settle accounts with these red-haired ghosts!"

Hearing that the two wanted to run by themselves, Ge Geli blurted out without thinking: "If you want to run, you run!" Then he bowed his hands facing the south, and said in a deep voice: "I have received the emperor's favor in this life, and I should be loyal to the emperor and serve the country! The Raksha people invaded the country. As the leader of Sandaotun, I am responsible for guarding the land and also the parents of the people. If I abandon the land and run away, how can I have the face to meet the officials? My people." After speaking, he glanced at the four people and said softly: "The Raksha people are powerful, and it is of no benefit to stay here. I have already decided to die here for the country. This is my duty. Wait. But it’s not necessary, you run for your lives, if you can bump into the grain convoy, report the situation here, please escort the officers and soldiers to retreat quickly, if this is the case, I will die in peace.”

"master!"

Seeing that his master insisted on staying here, the older Geshha couldn't help being anxious: "The master also knows that staying here will only lead to death, so if this is the case, the master should run for our lives with us, please rescue the soldiers and go to Luocha How can a person give up and throw his life here when it is a fight! Please escape with us, Master!"

Ge Geli's good partner Zabashu heard the cries of the Raksha people outside getting closer, and became anxious. It was too late to run away. Ge Geli wanted to die, but he didn't want to die. The appearance of begging to die, what else is there to persuade, and immediately lost a sentence: "Please take care of yourself, the young ones have the old and the young, and you have to save your life to go back and take care of them. Please forgive the young ones for not being able to be with the adults!" After speaking, he ran back without turning his head, and there was no one in the blink of an eye. Seeing this, the leader of Daur, Ge Geli and Liang Geshha, went outside again, stomped their feet for the last time, and followed the direction of Zama Shu. I went away.

Ge Geli was already in business, and at this moment he wanted to die, and it was human nature for his subordinates to seek a way to survive. He closed his eyes and thought about how he should die.After a long time, I made up my mind that it would be better to commit suicide, so as not to die under the swords of the Raksha people or be taken captive by them to survive. I was about to find a sword for suicide, but I saw two Goshhas standing in front of me. The two did not run together with Zaba.

Ge Geli looked at the two in puzzlement: "You two still not leaving? The Raksha people are coming soon, if you don't run away, it will be too late."

The two glanced at each other, then both of them took a step forward, knelt down in front of Ge Geli, kowtowed, and then the older Geshha said: "Master, you are favored by the emperor, but we are both honored by the master." Da En, if it weren't for the master, we would have died in the chaos. I lived with the master for a few more years, which is enough. Today, the master wants to be loyal to the country, and we both have to be loyal to the master. Die with the master! Please don't drive us away, we are willing to continue serving the master on Huangquan Road!"

"Good, good, good!"

Looking at these two loyal subordinates who were willing to die with him, Ge Geli couldn't help shedding two lines of old tears, looked down at the two for a few seconds, and didn't say any more, he sighed: "Bring me the sword! "

Er Geshiha hurriedly wanted to get the big knife for the master, but he saw the precious swords of the master around him. Ge Geli also remembered that the knife had been thrown outside by him, and he couldn't help but feel even more lonely. The knife has been with him all his life. I want to die but I want to separate.

Since he decided to commit suicide to avoid falling into the hands of Raksha people and being insulted, he had to have a sword in his hand, so that he could kill himself cleanly. Without the sword, other things would work.Ge Geli pointed to a long knife discarded by the soldiers: "That's the one."

Ergeshha knew what Master Zuoling wanted the knife for, but neither of them said much, one picked up the knife silently, held it to Ge Geli tremblingly, and then stood with the other hand down According to the rules, after the death of your master, the servants should dispose of the body of the master, so as not to be damaged by the enemy, so the two of them waited so that they could follow the master after disposing of the master's body.

The knife is very sharp, wiped clean, not a single trace of rust can be seen, it can come out from the edge, just wipe it hard on the neck, and then you can go to hell, but this knife is in hand, Ge Geli is I lifted it to my neck several times, but every time I wanted to cut it off, my heart softened and I couldn't wipe it off.

"That's it!"

It turns out that suicide is also something that makes people unable to survive or die. When I saw those Han generals who were defeated and committed suicide, they always said that it would not be difficult for them to kill themselves. I didn’t want to realize that it was my turn now. A spatula is such a difficult thing to do.It is always said that the Han people are cowardly, and they commit suicide just to save trouble, because they are afraid of falling into the hands of the imperial court and suffer. The decision to die has been made, it is true that I am no longer afraid, and it is not like myself that I have the idea of ​​being afraid of pain.Ge Geli, who couldn't do anything, was full of guts and had all kinds of thoughts. Seeing the two loyal Geshha looking at him in surprise, his face was a little difficult, and finally he gritted his teeth and said to the two of them: "Rather than die by my own hands, It's better to fight with the Raksha people, you wait and fight out with me!" After saying this, his fat body shook, turned around and rushed outside the stone house, and then heard a loud roar:

"Red-haired ghost, come! Let you taste the power of Grandpa Ge Geli!" Immediately after that, a few "bang bang" gunshots were heard, and then there was no sound in the stone house, only the echo of the firecracker The sound echoed on the walls of the stone house.

.........

"Marshal, all the defenders in the village have been dealt with! Those unscrupulous people have also been killed!"

"The last general's people have captured more than a hundred escaped people of various ethnic groups, as well as some Qing soldiers. Please show me how to deal with these people?"

After Ge Geli's death, the remaining fighting in the village ended in less than half a stick of incense time. After everything settled down, Zhao Qiang led people into the village.Grievsky and Zheng Guohui successively reported the results of their operations.

"The common people will be imprisoned first, and they will be taken back when they return. As for the Qing soldiers... they are all brought here. This commander has something to ask."

The purpose of capturing Sandaotun was to rob the Qing army of rations, but now there is no fleet at the pier, holding on to the last hope, Zhao Qiang wants to ask the captured Qing soldiers whether this fleet has ever been there, and is there any more in the future? If there is a fleet passing by, then stay here and wait.

"Yes, handsome!"

After listening to Zhao Qiang's order, Zheng Guohui immediately ordered his subordinates to escort those Qing soldiers who escaped and were captured.As soon as the people were escorted, they were all kicked and beaten and knelt down.There were prisoners of all nationalities, some old and some young, the old ones were at least 50 years old, and the young ones were very young, about fifteen or sixteen years old.This kind of old and weak Qing army was mostly stationed in the Eight Banners, so Zhao Qiang didn't think there was anything wrong.

Walking in front of these captives, Zhao Qiang didn't say much nonsense, and just said: "If you want to survive, please cooperate well. If I ask a question, you will reply. If you are dishonest, you will be killed!"

The captives were extremely terrified at this time, and the corpses around them made them shiver. After hearing Zhao Qiang's words, those who could understand Chinese immediately nodded and begged for mercy.

Zhao Qiang ignored the prisoners begging for mercy, walked up to the one-year-old captives and asked, "Let me ask you, how many defenders are there in the village?"

That year the captives were from Sauron, and they understood Chinese and had an honest attitude. After listening to them, they said honestly: "Back to Grandpa Luocha... Back to Grandpa, it used to be Lord Ge Geli who led the army in the village. A few months ago, Master Guo Mural led a group of Sauron soldiers with red flags, and there were less than [-] soldiers in total." He originally wanted to say Grandpa Luocha, but Zhao Qiang was not from Luocha, but Han Chinese , I couldn't help but change my mouth, and my heart was full of doubts, I didn't understand how the Han people mixed with the Raksha people.

Zhao Qiang asked: "Where's Ge Geli?"

The prisoner glanced around, and pointed to the three fallen corpses under the stone house more than 20 meters behind Zhao Qiang: "That fat man is our Lord Ge Geli."

Zhao Qiang glanced at the fat corpse, and saw that the corpse was indeed wearing Zuo Ling uniform, so he nodded and asked, "Where's Guo Muer?"

The Sauron captive didn't know where Guo Mur was, and asked other people around him, but they all shook their heads and said they didn't know.Seeing that these captives did not appear to be fake, Zhao Qiang asked Zheng Guohui to send people to search every house, and he must find Guo Muer.

Zheng Guohui led people to search every stone house, but found no one alive, so he had to come back and report: "Marshal, I searched every house, but I didn't find that Guo Muer."

Can't find anyone?Zhao Qiang was taken aback for a moment. How could there be no such a big place?

"Has the body been checked?"

"I've checked, no." Zheng Guohui affirmed again: "You can rest assured, the commander-in-chief, and the last general can guarantee that no one will escape from the last general's command!" The implication is that it is impossible for Guo Muer to escape from under the eyes of the cavalry brigade , so there is only one possibility, Guo Mur is still alive, and he must be hiding somewhere in Sandaotun.

Is there a dark cellar or something?Zhao Qiang's heart moved, and he asked the prisoner in a sharp voice: "Honestly, where did this Guo Muer hide?"

The captive Nian was frightened by Zhao Qiang, his body softened, and he shook his head with a bitter face and said: "Returning to grandpa, the young one really doesn't know, the young one really doesn't know!..."

"I don't know?" Zhao Qiang snorted coldly: "I don't know what's the use of keeping them, come here, drag them down and chop them all up!"

"Yes, Commander!" At that moment, soldiers came to drag the prisoners down, and now the prisoners were in a hurry, shouting one by one like killing pigs:

"Grandpa, spare your life, grandpa, spare your life, the little ones really don't know!"

But the youngest young prisoner shouted: "You know where Guo Muer is hiding!"

When Zhao Qiang heard this, he hurriedly mentioned the young man: "Say!"

The young captive was a little out of breath, and blushed and said: "Guo Zuoling is not in the village, nor has he run out, there is only one place to hide."

"where?"

The boy pointed to the riverside: "The reed prodigal son by the riverside!"

After listening to the place the boy said, Zhao Qiang smiled, let him go to the ground, and smiled at Zheng Guohui: "I forgot that there is such a place, you should send people in to search, if you want to see people if you are alive, if you want to see corpses if you are dead, Guo Mu Even if you get into the ground, you have to dig him out!"

Zheng Guohui was a bit confused: "Marshal, this prodigal son is so big, and it's getting late, even if Guo Muer is hiding inside, we can't catch him. Did we wait until dawn before sending people in to search?"

Zhao Qiang categorically denied it and said: "It will be too late until dawn! If this kid runs out to report the news, we will be in trouble." But what Zheng Guohui said is true, it is so dark and the reeds are so big, it is a bit difficult to send people in to search. After staring at the prodigal son in the distance for a while, Zhao Qiang had an idea and told Zheng Guohui:

"Send someone to surround this prodigal son, not letting go of any intersection, and then set fire to me to force him out!"
