981 Survive in the Cave
Li Gui stood on the edge of the woods, looking at the scorched earth with tears, he knew that Lao Cangtou was now gone, even if he wanted to find some ashes, he couldn't, he smashed his fist on the pine tree and shouted, "This is really not giving us a way to live! What kind of world is this, what kind of world is it!"
Ding Si dragged his arm back, "Let's go, let's go and meet the old shopkeeper, I can't hold it here, I have already disguised the cave where the arms are hidden, they won't be able to find us for a while......"
Li Gui knocked down his hand and said coldly, "No, we can't go to the big shopkeeper, if my guess is right, the mountain side can't stand it, and our defeat is inevitable......"
"Don't look at me, what can we do? We didn't understand anything before, but I learned a lot of things after I came into contact with Boss Xiang, this year it is not possible to have a gun, you have to have a cannon......"
"The battleships on the sea can't fill our lives with one shot, and now we can only save our strength and get out of here alive, this is our goal!"
The crowd was silent, they didn't know whether to listen to Li Gui or not, after all, Li Gui was just a small leader, the old shopkeeper was benevolent and fair, and it was said that he should still go to meet the old shopkeeper.
Just when he hesitated, Ding Si took out his gun and pointed it at the group, "I listen to Brother Li, and if I don't say anything else, I will also listen to Brother Li's insight into doing business with outsiders! Whoever dares to disagree will kill me today...... it!"
At the critical moment, it is still the most effective, when people hesitate, they will always blindly follow the strong voice, "Okay! I also listen to Brother Li, anyway, I don't think this battle can be fought like this......"
"That's right, there are caves and gold mining caves in this big Qingdao, many of them have been opened, let's go in and hide from the Rakshasa ghost and won't be able to find us for a while?"
Of course, there are also questioning voices in the crowd, "I can't find it in a day or two, but I can definitely find it after a long time, after all, the island is so big......"
Li Guiyi waved his hand, "No, I believe in the boss, he said that there will be a miracle in a few days, I will believe him...... I believe that I can give us so many foreign guns and guns for nothing!"
What else is there to say, then go into the mountain, Li Gui, a follower of two hundred miners, secretly went into the cave.
Facts have proved that Li Gui's choice is very correct, at this time the great rout on the other side of the mountain has happened, the big shopkeeper is dead and leaderless, plus the Russian army of these two battalions is indeed extremely strong, and soon the battle situation will become overwhelming.
Hordes of miners fled all over the mountains, and the Russian soldiers chased after them, shooting down the rebellious miners as if they were hunting, and the sabers had already slashed to the edge of the blade, and the heads rolled down the hillside with grunts.
Some of the panicked miners who fled fell off the cliff, some got into the cave, some launched a desperate counterattack, and some knelt on the ground and kowtowed and begged for mercy.
The morale of the military has collapsed, although it is helpless but cannot be changed, the gap between professional soldiers and professional farmers is so big.
Aitolin on the Aleut shook his head contemptuously, and smiled at the translator and clerk next to him, Kosky, "The overall situation has been decided, Chinese is defeated, I said that the battle will end in one day, and sure enough, it will be the end of the day......"
Kosky, who was wearing glasses next to him, smiled and said, "Isn't the general ready to go ashore? This is your glory!"
"No, you don't understand military ...... I should have landed later at this time, and I had to give those kids a little time to have fun, shouldn't I?"
The so-called entertainment is the open slaughter, the victors need to kill to celebrate the victory, and they also need this way to dispel the cruelty in their hearts, and the uprising in the Great Qingdao has now become a bloody massacre.
Li Gui and the others struggled through the mine, they climbed forward with their hands and feet, their knees and palms were rubbed with thousands of holes and blood, but listening to the shouts and killings outside, none of them dared to make a sound.
Soon they encountered sporadic routs from a narrow ventilation hole, and as soon as these frightened gold miners saw the little leader Li Gui, it was like seeing their relatives, "Brother Li, it's all over, we're all finished......"
"The big shopkeeper was killed by artillery, those Russians are simply a bunch of brutes, we can't beat them at all, one by one is as powerful as a bear in the old woods......"
"There are dead people everywhere, brothers are dead and crippled...... Woooooooo
Li Gui comforted them, "Drink some water, take a sip of water first...... Whoever has compressed biscuits in their hands, break a small bite for their brother, don't have too much, be careful to choke......"
"Follow me, let's hide first, you can rest assured that we can be saved for three days......"
Along the way, he collected the rout, and soon Li Gui had more than 400 brothers under his command, and he scattered all these people in the cave, while he took his henchmen to find more brothers.
At this moment, a faint smoke suddenly came from the cave, followed by a coughing sound in the distance: "Oh no, these beasts are smoking us with smoke, too lacking in virtue, too lacking in virtue!"
Now that the fighting outside is over, the gold miners have taken prisoners, seven or eight hundred people, and the Chinese who have fled to the mines are not ready to let go.
But the mine was too narrow for bears to go back and forth, and the bastards came up with the idea of smoking cigarettes.
There were pine trees and dry pine needles in the mountains, and when they found a hole, they piled them up, lit a bonfire, and forced the captives to fan them with large branches with leaves. If you don't dare to do it, a bayonet will be pierced by a side.
The captives could only fan the caves crying and wind, and the billowing smoke filled every cave, and soon there was a coughing sound, and finally many miners were forced out.
The furry bear soldiers guarding the entrance of the cave were like hunting rabbits, and if they looked pleasing to the eye, they were tied with a rope, and if they didn't like it, they were a bayonet, and the air was full of blood.
Li Gui's crying eyes were all spent: "Revenge! Sooner or later, we will have to take revenge...... These brutes!"
"Everyone tore their clothes, quickly urinated, covered their mouths and noses...... After a while, the cave was full of urine smells, and the cloth stained with urine covered the mouth and nose, and everyone began to retreat to the more secluded cave.
When the fireworks were lit all over the mountain, Li Gui and the others knew that the brothers outside were no longer saved, and at this time, if they wanted to fight hard and rush out, it would definitely be to send them to death, and the plan for today was to guard a limited number of safe caves, rely on the military rations and materials provided to the boss for a long time, and wait for the so-called miracle.
Now the place where Li Gui is hiding is very safe, this is close to an underground water vein, and the rock wall is full of condensed water droplets, ticking down to form a stream of water, people rely on this bit of clear water to finally recover a little strength.
Compressed biscuits and canned beef were opened and passed down from the front of the line, one person digging and eating and then handing it to the next, then licking the water on the ground, and the cloth that bound the mouth was soaked again with water.
Just when people felt safe, suddenly a thick puff of smoke rushed in from outside the cave, and the choking smell of pine filled the entire cave.
