Chapter 495: Skinning a traitor alive

The battle in Lijiabao was fierce, and the Qing army had to make hard efforts every time they took a step forward, and the streets and in front of the stone houses became battlefields

At the corner of a street, the Hui army held the forward position, and under the leadership of Yin Fengguang, the commander of the five outposts and four troops, the Qing army launched a fierce battle with the Qing army, regardless of men, women, and children, more than 100 people held on to the stones, and built them into simple fortifications

Densely packed, the Qing army rushed to the position, and when the enemy was only 35 meters away from the front of the position, he threw out a grenade, and the first few returning troops were immediately killed

Liu Yun, the old war soil, also jumped into the trenches, swept the enemy with a broadsword, and cut the Hui army into pieces and fell down in pieces, these muscular men and heroes were not far behind, let them start a brutal hand-to-hand fight with the Hui army, leaving each other corpses or wounded, they were boiling blood, the cold wind was steaming hot, and the fierce battle lasted for more than 20 minutes, and the corpses of the Hui army were all over the field, and the first wave of the Hui army was killed and wounded in large numbers and lost their combat effectiveness

But then the Hui army from the house to push out a Fran machine cannon, fierce artillery fire poured on the position, many Hui army to the position, almost crazy counterattack, the Qing army bullets, grenades are all gone, the ammunition has been exhausted, there is no way to retreat, the Qing army has a certain heart to die, facing several times their own Hui army, all the guns on the bayonet, and the Hui army to attack the position, hand-to-hand combat

The two sides immediately scuffled together, there was no way to retreat, the Qing army also killed crazy, a bayonet stabbed to death, a Hui army was then stabbed to death by many Hui troops, soldiers on both sides stabbed to death with flesh and blood, this small place was like a beast, bloody battle for more than an hour, killing more than 1 Hui army, until all the heroic sacrifice, with blood and life to achieve the oath and the position to live and die together

The smoke of gunpowder blew away, and the corpses of the dead soldiers on both sides were scattered all over the battlefield

At the entrance of another street, the third army also faced the same situation as the fourth army: the dense Hui army poured into the position, the army commander Duan Yusheng was seriously wounded, but still endured severe pain, and stubbornly insisted on fighting until he was dying, and the Hui army found that he was dying, and the third army commander immediately outflanked him in multiple directions at the same time, and when the third army was close to the Hui army, he resolutely pulled the grenade and returned to the Hui army, and he lay down seven Hui army corpses next to his broken body, and after more than an hour of fierce fighting, only the old soldier Yuan Huangao was left alone, and the rest were all killed

Yuan Huangao also let go, and constantly threw grenades at the enemy group, and immediately more than a dozen Hui troops fell to the front of the position, and then they were also hit by the Hui army's fire, and after being wounded, the bullets and grenades were all gone, and he used stones to fight with the Hui army, and fought alone against the enemy, until the reinforcements used howitzers to blow up all the stone houses in front of them, and I don't know how many Hui troops were buried, and the blood in the ruins was sprinkled like rain and mist, and the blood of Qing soldiers was left in every street, because the streets were flat and buffered, and there were many Qing soldiers, and they were not like the Han soldiers who were sensitive to artillery, and they did not organize a good battle formation

Suddenly, the Hui army pushed out two black hole Dong Long machine cannons from both sides of the street, and the distance between the two sides was only dozens of steps, almost all the artillery shotguns penetrated the Qing army's crowd of soldiers in front and back, and many shotguns bombarded the low wall behind, stirring up a large cloud of smoke and dust

It was already too late for Tusi Mo Baoguo to arrive, and more than 30 soldiers fell to death on the street, and when Li Ziying Bart arrived with howitzers, he saw that the soldiers were still shooting at the Hui army, and he couldn't help but scold: "How many times have the donkey balls told you, organize the formation, don't put your mandarin duck three talent formations, you eat."

Mo Baoguo was ashamed and annoyed, and shouted with all his might: "I am also a newcomer, and I am too excited."

The two scolded and scolded very one by one, and the firepower points were destroyed by howitzers, and Battle taught: "Donkey balls must learn how infantry and artillery work together, and individual combat is outdated, and the enemy does not need to be better than anyone else with a gun in his hand."

Seeing that the artillery observer only used a few words, the gunner wiped out the Hui army around the Fran machine, avenged the soldiers, and hated Mo Baoguo this time finally learned a lesson, nodded and said: "Battle has you, I know how to change it in the future, and the whole two howitzers will come out."

Battle pouted: "You are so rich, don't forget to practice firing the gun, you will be exempted"

Mo Baoguo hoarsely made a strange voice in his throat: "Why do you know what to do with such long-windedness?"

Although the soldiers are the private property of Tusi Mo Baoguo, but at once reimburse more than 30 sons and daughters, not to mention how sad they are in their hearts, learning to fight on the battlefield is the need to spend blood, the price is studied, some places are inserted with the flying eagle banner of the Hui army, and some places are planted with the snow mountain lion flag, crisscrossing each other, indicating that the war here is staggered, the battle situation is staggered, the Qing army adheres to the strategy of advancing layer by layer, does not rush forward, does not take away the position of the Hui army piece by piece, and the battle flag moves forward, which shows that the Qing army occupies more and more territory, and the Hui army can only do the struggle, death is imminent, and the return army is alive to fight for honor

With the sound of artillery is dense, like a burst of beans, the sound of gunfire sounded, the Qing army rushed into the battle formation, the platoon shot to open the way, and there was like a grim reaper howitzer constantly bombarded the Qing army, maintaining the formation of many Hui troops, many Hui troops could not help but howl and run, and at this time, the fierce war drums sounded, a large number of fierce and vicious Sichuan soldiers rushed out of the passage with bright bayonets, these five accumulations of thin six Sichuan rats than the Shandong Han are not far behind, let them and the Hui army to start hand-to-hand combat, leaving each other corpses or wounded, they are hot blood, the cold wind is steaming, maybe there are Hui troops can fight bayonets, but the Hui army is too old and weak, in the face of these spearmen and soldiers, they are afraid to run away, and then these Hui troops are defeated on the whole line, the Sichuan army spearmen and soldiers, they scream wildlyKilling with bayonets, they scattered and fled back to the army, killing men, women, and children

In the panic, Tao Maolin, the second leader of the Hui army, rolled to the ground, and then was caught up, stabbed by knives and guns, and stabbed on him, and many long-term husbands squeezed in, holding sticks and stones, and desperately hitting him on the head, until he became a pile of rotten meat

Mu San cruelly cut off the head of his brother Tao Maolin in the past, haha laughed wildly, with this head, he can justify himself as a battalion officer, Li Guolou arrived at the front line, just in time for a large number of Qing troops to besiege a fortress, huge stones to build a fortress, the howitzer is too little power, and it can't destroy the fortifications in front of the Qing soldiers

At this time, it was seen that Huang Ding's Sichuan army was brave with an explosives bag in his hand, and the soldiers crawled forward, with hundreds of guns behind him, covering one Sichuan soldier not moving, and the other soldier carrying the explosives bag rushed up again, and the death squad had a team on the ground and died, six soldiers still did not rush up the slope, and the Wu Commander Liu Sheng's eyes were red, and he carried the explosives bag on his own

The Sichuan rat man was small and nimble, and he ran quickly, and Liu Sheng finally threw the explosives bag into the fortress of the Hui army, and immediately a fish jumped and fled, lying on the ground and not moving

There was a loud bang, a cloud of smoke filled the sky over the fortress, and a strong fortress was reimbursed

"Kill, kill, kill", Yang Da Wazi personally held a national flag and rushed up the high slope, blood oozed from his shoulders, and he was injured and did not get out of the line of fire, and he was reborn in blood Phoenix Nirvana

After the baptism of artillery fire, he and the surviving bandits became heroes through the bloody battle of Lijiabao, and the Qing government newspaper and declaration praised the big baby, anyway, he was shaped into a prodigal son and a model of return

People can become bandits, hooligans, and become the founding emperor, after that, Yang Da Wazi restrained the team, and he actually got rid of the habits and evil deeds of bandits accumulated for many years, and he had no chance to become the superintendent battalion under Gao Liansheng

The war is strange, and it is impossible to distinguish who is right and who is wrong, and seizing the opportunity is a hero, and people will fall behind from the beginning, and people will fall behind, such as Yang Dawazi, the surrender faction of the Qing Dynasty abounds, most of them have good ends, and some even sit in high positions and become the commander-in-chief of military power

The Hui general Dong Fuxiang and the Qing traitor Yang Dawazi became the two living signboards of the Qing Dynasty's "benevolence, righteousness and leniency", inducing many Hui troops to return to the Qing Dynasty, and as the war progressed, the effect became more and more obvious

Li Guolou met in front of the dilapidated fortress, a member of the explosives bag throwing death squad, and the superhero Liu Sheng, who was so short and inconspicuous, that everyone could not look good

"Well, it's great, it's promising, do it well," Li Guolou shook hands with the daredevil, and praised him fiercely

Deputy Marshal Xu Zhanbiao was obviously outside Lijia Fort, but in order to avoid some taboos, the commanders did not enter the fort, and only Li Guolou entered the fort alone, and Li Guolou accidentally became a high-ranking commander in the Qing army, so when he met with meritorious officials, he should praise this group of Qing warriors who carried explosives, but he encountered a big problem, he did not have an official hat to reward these heroes

Anyway, he has money, the daredevils will give 2 taels of silver regardless of whether they live or die, and the 30-person daredevils will spend Li Guolou 6 taels of silver, after reading the fresh, Li Guolou is afraid of escaping, and it is not that his army has wrongfully spent the money, no one will remember him

After that, Li Guolou never looked at the heroes again, the heroes who were not afraid of death on the battlefield, were still small people in real life, could not speak, had no culture, no old hats, and had no cultivation prospects, or those martial arts students under him, who were very promising, and the dragons and tigers among the people were all waste utilization, and the leaders were taught

Li Guolou almost didn't laugh, he learned another trick, and in the future, he will have to cultivate people who have no future, to be a daredevil, is to spend money, to fight a war is to burn money, like him, who does not want to make a fortune, to accumulate a rich family background, to dare to pull out a team to fight

"Catch Cao Kezhong," "Catch Cao Kezhong," the officers and men on the street kept shouting excitedly

Hearing that the leader of the rebels was arrested, Li Guolou stopped and said happily: "Let's go to the two toasts, let's take a look together, Vice Marshal Xu said that he killed this traitor himself."

The soldier Tusi Mo Baoguo glared angrily and said: "Then how can I do it, my son Lang has died so much, Cao Kezhong's skin is going to be decided."

Li Guolou glanced at him in horror and said, "Mo Tusi, you still have this craft."

"Of course, the ancestral heirloom will give you a human skin copper drum worth a thousand taels," Mo Baoguo said as he walked, deliberately walking very vigorously and resolutely, and his style was to make the first move, and he personally peeled Cao Kezhong's living human skin

Li Guolou was terrified, and then his back was cold, and he saw that the two toasts had already thrown off and strode up, knowing what the outcome would be, he actually had no right to speak here, others were just polite to him, the two Tusi were loyal to the country, patriotic and free to serve the country, and even the deputy marshal Xu Zhanbiao had to be polite to them, how could they not give them face, Cao Kezhong's living skin was about to be peeled off immediately

The third layer inside and the outer three layers Yang Dawazi and He Mingtang personally tied Cao Kezhong to a stone mill to let the Qing army visit, or did their own family know where Cao Kezhong's lair was hiding, and Cao Kezhong was captured by Yang Dawazi's department

In the noise, Li Guolou squeezed in and said suspiciously: "How did Yang Dawazi catch Cao Kezhong, didn't he even have the courage to commit suicide?"

He Mingtang laughed and said: "It's funny that Lord Li said that Cao Kezhong was caught by his four little girls, and the girl was Mulan."

The surrounding Qing army laughed loudly, with a dirty expression, looking at Cao Kezhong, who had a blue nose and swollen face, it turned out that Cao Kezhong was beaten like this by his own woman to oppress women, and he would be retaliated against by women

Li Guolou was squeezed by Yang Dawazi and gave a reward of 5 taels, shook his head with a smile and left, and the next scene was too cruel, Tusi Peng Dingyue and Tusi Mo Baoguo didn't ask the deputy marshal Xu Zhanbiao to skin people alive on the street, he was a civil official, and it was not suitable to watch this scene

The latter fortified fortress was broken by the Qing army, a landlord's house in Lijiabao became the Li Ziying station, Li Guolou did not visit the capture of the Qing army, the various armies distributed the spoils after the war, even Zuo Zongtang would not ask, he was appointed by the imperial court to escort the envoy to see it was also taboo to maintain a high style and bright festival, the civil official Qinggao slowly grinded, and prepared to write a flower excerpt

Under the oil lamp, Li Guolou's face was cloudy, and he couldn't put down the pen in his hand, and his personal experience of the war made him not know where to start

"Coming to Lijiabao to Win the Great Victory" is a fold

Li Guolou wrote in a compromise: "Under the personal command of Deputy Marshal Xu Zhanbiao, our army broke through Lijiabao in only one day with overwhelming momentum, and Huang Ding led the 10th battalion to be brave and unprecedented, and the achievements were ······."

Sprinkled thousands of words, writing the war situation briefly, while the brutal war jumped on the paper, it was just a string of numbers, thinking of the families in Lijiabao who had suffered a catastrophe, a sour feeling accumulated in the chest, and the endless civil war of the Qing Dynasty

The sporadic gunshots could be vaguely heard, Li Guolou was not sleepy, holding a magnifying glass and looking at Dong Zhiyuan's map on the kang
