Chapter 613: Miserable
Chapter 613 is miserable
Some of the people guarding the house hurriedly fled to the back door when they saw that the situation was not good.
However, an ambush had already been prepared outside the back door, and as soon as they ran out, they were either shot or captured alive.
Lin Xiao heard the shouts of killing, cries and cursing and begging for mercy inside, and knew that the battle was nearing its end.
He looked up at the time, just after half past one.
In his heart, he was not satisfied with the battle.
The opponent is too weak, and in addition to firepower, the team members usually practice many tactical skills such as reconnaissance, fighting, climbing, assassination, and coordinated attack are unable to play, however, Rao is so, and the whole battle also took nearly an hour and a half, which is not smooth at all.
"There is still a lack of actual combat training, and the technical and tactical ability has declined......"
Lin Xiao secretly thought that since the battle of Dayuan, this capable division has not participated in real combat for a long time.
After a while, captives began to be taken out, men, women, and children.
Lin Xiao ordered that they be locked up in a ruined ancestral hall in the outer village first, and then screened and distributed after dawn.
After about half an hour, the courtyard slowly fell silent.
Occasionally, one or two particularly frightening screams erupted, and the assault team was searching everywhere in turn to see if any fish had slipped through the net.
Lin Xiao didn't enter the village immediately, he first walked around the street and turned to the back door to see the situation.
There were more than a dozen corpses lying outside the back door, all of which had been shot dead by the sniper team guarding the back door while trying to escape from here.
Almost all of them were richly dressed, and many of them carried in their arms and hands small packets and small boxes, among which were several women and children, who were presumably either shot by bullets or pushed and trampled to death in the confusion.
met Situ Zheng at the back door, so he held a torch and went into the house to take a look.
Most of the houses have been emptied, the doors and windows are wide open, and many tables, chairs, and furniture have been pushed aside, as if some people want to resist the house one by one.
There were also signs of recalcitrant resistance in the courtyard, where knives, guns, guns, and gunpowder were thrown all over the ground, and some of the stones under the steps were dug up and piled up behind the collapsed doors......
Finally, the two of them walked into the main house of Zhai Dahu.
The interior of the house is quite luxurious, with a lot of furnishings, and under the firelight, all kinds of vases, interstitial screens, ornaments and even antiques are dazzling, and some have fallen to the ground and smashed to pieces.
Although Lin Xiao didn't have much research in this area, he also felt that there were so many such things that were a bit unexpected.
When I walked to the backyard, I saw several soldiers holding torches, escorting a group of prisoners and carrying out the corpses one by one.
Lin Xiao saw that the dead were all women of old and young.
He looked up and saw that there were still some cut Ayara on the beams, thinking that these eighty percent were suicide female dependents, and he couldn't help but feel sorry in his heart, and sighed secretly.
He was a soldier and originally had a very indifferent view of life and death.
He also knew very well that for that common goal, there must be people who shed blood and sacrificed, and there would be rivers of blood, but in the face of this situation, he couldn't help but be moved.
"The struggle of one class to overthrow another must not be a gentle breeze, but a violent act of revolution......"
He remembered that there was a great man who seemed to have said such a thing.
Leading the team here is Shi Suo, the captain of the second squadron, who was gloomy when he saw Lin Xiao coming, raised his head and said, "Chief, this is too miserable......
Lin Xiao didn't answer, but secretly thought, ancient women were very feudal, probably because they didn't want to lose their temper or something after being captured.
It seems that it will take a long time to establish a good public image of the captive army.
"I really can't figure it out, why would I kill myself?"
Stone Lock sighed and continued to mumble, "Are we going to eat them again?" ”
"This is the reality, it's better to cry as a family than to cry all the way......"
Lin Xiao frowned, patted him on the shoulder, and asked, "Has Zhai Dahu found it?" ”
"Not yet, we have found a few servants and maids, and we are identifying the corpses......"
While he was talking, someone came to report that a dungeon had been found behind the barn in the backyard.
Lin Xiao hurried over, and as soon as he took a few steps, he saw several soldiers coming out with a group of people.
Some of them were shackled, some were chained around their necks, some were tied with ropes on their hands, and they were all ragged and staggering.
As soon as he asked, these people were all in arrears of rent and usury, and because they were unable to repay, they were arrested by Xiang Yong and his family and put in private prison.
There are also people who offended Zhai Dahu in other things and were imprisoned.
Lin Xiao thought that the elders of Yan Village should also be locked up here, so he asked urgently: "Is there any from Shijiaqiao Village?" ”
Hearing someone ask, several old men suddenly knelt down in the team and kowtowed repeatedly.
Lin Xiao hurriedly went up to help him up, and when he got closer, he realized that the stench of these people was all over their bodies, and the lower half of their bodies were wet and dirty, as if they had been soaked for a long time.
He felt sorry in his heart, and reassured them not to be afraid, and after a while, someone from the village came to pick them up.
These old men didn't know what was going on at first, until they saw Lin Xiao's outfit clearly, and suddenly someone remembered the strange man who came to the village to buy salt that day, and immediately realized that they knelt down and kowtowed.
Lin Xiao didn't explain much, and asked someone to lead them out, quickly give them something to eat, and wait for the militia team to pick them up.
Turning his head, he pointed to the rest of the men and said to the stone lock, "Break their shackles and chains, and give each of them something to eat, and let them go home." ”
There was a young man inside, and when he heard that he was going to call them home, he shouted at Lin Xiao: "Master, the villain has no home to go back to, can you take it in?" ”
"Want to do it with us?"
Lin Xiao saw that someone was going to defect, and said with a smile, "Coming to our team is not only to be a soldier to eat food, but also to work hard, and to fight a war, not to be a good ......."
"Don't worry, the villain is a single person anyway, and he is also poor when he lives, and he can't die with a scar the size of a bowl, what are you afraid of!"
"Okay, then I'll take you,"
Lin Xiao nodded, "In a while, you can talk to the person who registered." ”
"Done! Thank you, sir! ”
The man was gone, thankfully.
Lin Xiao was curious for a moment, so he motioned to Situ Zheng to go into this private prison and have a look.
It was a semi-underground dungeon, with what looked like a torture room outside, the floor was very damp, the walls were covered with rusty chains, shackles, and shackles, and a wooden table was littered with torture instruments such as whips and bamboo boards.
Looking inside, there was a cavernous cell in the dark, and it was eerie at first glance.
As soon as I poked my head out, a stench hit my nose, and when I looked down, I saw that the ground was soaked in sewage.
This appearance made Lin Xiao can't help but recall a movie called "Serf" that he watched when he was a child, and that film left a very eerie impression on him.
He couldn't help but feel disgusted and hurried back.
At this time, Shi Suo took people and was already counting all kinds of materials one by one.
