Chapter 167: One Will Succeed and Ten Thousand Bones Will Wither

From a distance, I saw the generals running east with their own soldiers, and some Qing soldiers who had finally escaped from the camp and were scurrying around finally saw the backbone of the main body, so they followed desperately to flee for their lives.

Most of them were disheveled, many of them were only wearing vests and trousers, and they did not even have weapons in their hands, and in the panic, many of them had their shoes stepped on, and they were grinning in pain when they stepped barefoot on the cold stone road, limping forward, like clowns.

As more and more routs gathered behind Tunqi, on the streets all the way east, hundreds of innocent people were either trampled by war horses or died tragically under the knives of the Qing soldiers.

Finally ran to the east gate, the green camp tent had already been burned to a scorched earth, although many green battalion soldiers were not pursued, but there were thousands of people buried in the fire, the rest of the people had already fled with the officers at all levels, and there were only dozens of full horsemen left beside the city gate cave who were looking at the surging crowd in a daze.

It's not that they don't want to run, but they haven't seen their main force escape, even Bel Ye and Jia Lae Zhen Su Mucha (the previous text is mistaken for Mel Ezhen, and they hereby correct and apologize.) Before they left the city, they did not dare to leave their posts without permission, so they had to stand there in a daze with trembling stupidity.

Seeing Tun Qi and his party rushing out of the city gate in a hurry, those people suddenly felt relieved, and hurriedly ran away behind their buttocks, and not long after, the east gate had fallen into the hands of the Chitose army.

Stumbling along the way, Tun Qi led everyone to run along the Wushui River for more than 30 miles before he dared to stop and rest, in front of Xuefeng Mountain, along the way caught up with many soulless green battalion soldiers, but did not see Zhang Tianshou at all.

Tun Qi was furious in his heart, and ordered someone to arrest the guards of the city to torture him, and learned that Zhang Tianshou had fled with his own soldiers as soon as he caught fire, and he was afraid that he had run to Wugang at this time.

Tun Qi was angry and anxious, seeing that the sky had already brightened, he hurriedly stepped on the horse and continued to run, but ordered Su Mucha to take people to break off here.

These green battalion soldiers are a rabble, if they don't have the backbone, how can they be expected to block the pursuit of the Ming army, and now they can only rely on Su Mucha to suppress it for a while.

……

Looking at the fire in the city, Lin Xiao felt a little sour and uneasy in his heart.

The fire took advantage of the wind, and the fire greatly exceeded his expectations, and many people will definitely be affected by this fire.

But now, he has no choice, in order to capture Suining City, for the sake of greater strategic goals, and not to expose the strength of the special combat team too early, Lin Xiao had no choice but to make this fire attack.

It is said that one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither!

Those 10,000 bones are all the bones of the soldiers who participated in the fight, I'm afraid it is more the bones and blood of the common people!

Even in the twenty-first century, a few hundred years later, even if it is a local war, it is the common people who die more, let alone this era when the grass people are like ants.

War, whether it is just or not, from a certain point of view, is more or less guilty, that is, in the process of fighting for the right to live, the ugly and selfish side of human nature is fully exposed!

And this ugliness is a survival instinct deeply rooted in human genes!

In particular, the initiators of wars of aggression have always been found guilty of crimes against humanity, because this is at the cost of depriving others of their right to live more comfortably, which is the ugliness of ugliness, and it is a great explosion of animal attributes!

Because of this, the anti-aggression side, no matter what kind of retribution, is endowed with an aura of justice and should not be condemned, right? Isn't the purpose of this to curb the ugliness that is raging everywhere with impunity?

Lin Xiao forcibly suppressed the unbearable in his heart, forced himself to let go of the morality of the future generations, and tried his best to exonerate himself.

After standing for a long time, and finally calming down, Lin Xiao raised his wrist and looked at his watch, cleared his throat, and said to Zhu Yujia in a deep voice: "Let's go, let's go into the city." ”

"I'll stay in the city gate tower with the special operators, don't enter the city, you bring your people to help them eliminate the remnants of the enemy."

When he walked to the gate of the south city, Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment and said: "Remember two points, first, let them organize firefighting first, and let the people know that it was the Chitose Army that recovered the city, and any difficulties should be solved as much as possible; Second, there are Qing soldiers who sneak out and close their eyes, but the play is about to be played out. ”

"Understood, Captain!"

Zhu Yujia answered softly, and took his guard platoon into the city to help, he knew the reason why the captain was depressed, and he himself was not in the same mood.

The people in the city finally figured out that it was the local Chitose Army who had killed them, so they stopped running away, and many of them were already fighting the fire under the organization of the Chitose Army.

The fire had abated considerably, but the smoke that filled the city was even greater than before, making it impossible to see the distant scene clearly, and the air was filled with the choking smell of smoke and the smell of burnt corpses.

The patrolling soldiers found that a lot of swords, guns, and Qing army uniforms had been discarded in some alleys, and guessed that there must have been Qing soldiers who saw that the situation was not good, and disguised themselves as ordinary people to mix in the crowd, so they searched for the remnants of the enemy from house to house, and those who encountered foreign accents on the street were also strictly interrogated.

The Chitose Army was also in charge of the defense of the gates of the city, and when they faintly saw someone fleeing over the city wall, they did not arrest them, but only shouted for them to pursue them after they ran away.

……

It was nearly noon, and order in the city gradually stabilized.

Some local gentry and yamen officials have taken to the streets to help the soldiers resettle the victims of the disaster who have lost their homes, some are distributing food, some are already building straw huts, and hundreds of Qing prisoners have been detained in the backyard of the county government to be processed.

When Zhu Yujia took everyone to the South Gate Tower, Lin Xiao had been thinking about it for a long time in front of the map, and when he saw everyone coming, Lin Xiao briefly asked a few words about the situation in the city, and then explained his plans and plates.

"Suining City, from now on is our own, we must organize the villagers to restore order and production as soon as possible, all dynasties, the people are always the most pitiful, you must treat them well...... I will then take my leave, and before I leave, I have a few words to explain to you. ”

"Although the commander-in-chief orders, we will obey the orders!" Chu Fang's face was straight, and he hugged his fists.

Overnight, he turned over and became the master of Suining again, and his hometown Tulou was also successfully recovered, and the loss of his own personnel was very small, Chu Fang's eyes were full of smiles, and he was in a good mood.

At the same time, her heart, the determination to follow these god-like characters in front of her is becoming more and more firm.

"Chu Da is too modest, what about this first sentence, I want to send Sun Kewang's corpse back to Nanning, I want to use his head to pay tribute to the heroic soul of Nanyang Hou, I guess you are fine, right?"

"No problem." Chu Fang blurted out, isn't this a trivial matter.

"Yes, it's absolutely no problem, we don't ask the government for a reward, but the corpse of the Sun thief is disposed of by the commander-in-chief."

Yuan Zuocai and the others also agreed, compared to the big victory in front of them, a corpse is nothing.

"This Sun thief actually killed the Marquis of Nanyang? It's really hateful, it's not too much to cut with a thousand cuts! ”

"The second brother is right, it's just a pity that the Marquis of Nanyang died on the battlefield, we have also admired his name for a long time, and he is a loyal man!"

Zhang Meng and Zuo Wenzhao killed happily today, especially seeing the ability of the people brought by Lin Xiao to quietly climb over the city wall and cleanly annihilate the defenders and capture the city tower without firing a single shot, the two of them were completely convinced, and their desire to join their ranks became more and more urgent.
