The bandits on Weishan Island had no intention of defending their hometown, and a great defeat made people's hearts fluctuate, Sun Guilu and Zhou Tianlun and others hid the boat, abandoned the ship and went ashore, showing calm and composed, gathered the ships that fled back, reorganized the soldiers and horses, counted the number of fierce brothers, and most of the fierce brothers fled back, and there were still more than 800 brothers left

Everyone's thoughts are the same, they all want to escape from Weishan Island by night, and they are shouting that they want to flee to Hugging Calvings to find their second brother Sun Meijing

Sun Guilu looked around, and the brothers who had fled back talked about the experience of the water war, but when he saw the captain of the Bronze Hammer, Yang Jingwei "Black Tiger" and the people of the Black Tiger Society, he knew that Yang Jingwei had a different heart

Sun Guilu himself could not be guaranteed, how could he dare to punish the crime of escaping from the battlefield of the Copper Hammer, and hurriedly sent people to the Copper Hammer to appease Yang Jingwei's men, Sun Guilu drank hot tea, looked at the light rain outside, hoped that the heavier the rain, the better, and encouraged the brothers to continue to fight, and arranged for people from all walks of life to break through separately

The sound of artillery came from the east, the port in the east was attacked by the ironclad ships, Sun Guilu ran to the east, commanded the battle, came to the dock, and saw that the ships moored in the harbor were crooked and twisted, the ships were crippled by the enemy's artillery fire, and through the rain and fog, I took a closer look at the copper hammer, four white flags were erected on the copper hammer, and they were fleeing outside the dock, they were going to surrender, and the Beiyang sailors made him angry, panting, scolding: "Yang Jingwei, you are a eunuch without a seed, it was Lao Tzu who you said you were going to fight, so you stuck to Weishan Island, and now you have betrayed your oath, and the sky is thundering and thundering."

Sun Guilu scolded Yang Jingwei with foul language, but he actually misunderstood Yang Jingwei, at this time, Yang Jingwei was tied up all over his body, and with strips of cloth stuffed in his mouth, he was tied up by the brothers who rebelled on the Copper Hammer and thrown under the cabin of the ship to be with bedbugs

Yang Jingwei wanted to be a hero who looked at death as if he were home, and he hated to spill blood on Weishan Lake, but several of his leaders were moved by Wang Yunteng's words, and the 100 subordinates brought by Wang Yunteng fought on the Copper Hammer to kill Sun Guilu and purge the dead friends installed by Sun Guilu, and then drove away the Copper Hammer with several leaders of the Vermilion Bird Society

Sun Gui's army was outnumbered, where could he hold the wharf, fortunately, the Beiyang naval division did not land, so he thought that he could hold on until dark, but Weishan Island was full of smoke, and the Qing army actually attacked Weishan Island on three sides in the rain, the enemy and us fought fiercely, although the bandits were fierce, but the defeat was decided, more than half of the dead and wounded, and the remaining bandits fled in all directions

As night approached, the road was muddy, and Sun Guilu and Zhou Tianlun ran into the reeds with one shallow foot and one foot in the reeds, still boosting morale and asking the other three cronies to run faster

Five people suddenly popped up next to him, the leader was Zhang Tiepao, at close range, four guns fired together, and four bullets shot at Zhou Tianlun together, Zhou Tianlun was killed on the spot, and before Sun Guilu could react, five grenades beckoned, Sun Guilu was hit by shrapnel, screamed and fell, and the other three cronies were killed

Sun Guilu oozed blood from his legs, shot back, struggled to get up, dragged his injured legs, limped away, rolled over and disappeared into the night, surrounded by reeds, Sun Guilu got into it and disappeared

"There is no one who escapes from Sun Guilu, it is Sun Guilu who chases me," Zhang Tiepao did not expect that the sneak attack was unsuccessful, and the cunning and strange Sun Guilu actually changed his clothes, and there was no Sun Guilu among the four corpses on the ground

"How can you chase it, Zhang Tiepao, Sun Guilu has two guns, and besides, the ghost knows where he hid the boat," one of the gunners stood in the shallow water, unwilling to go deep into the reeds, and it was their limit to chase here, and the other three gunners also stopped

Zhang Tiepao looked at the black and heavy reeds and said in annoyance: "Sun Guilu really has nine lives, he can't be blown up, forget it, Zhou Tianlun's head is also worth it, let's go back."

Zhang Tiepao's success was defeated, and he was only one step away from killing Sun Guilu, so he could only retreat and go back and cut off Zhou Tianlun's head

Sun Guilu can make a world in Weishan Lake, he has superior means, the pain in his leg did not knock him down, Sun Guilu endured the pain, like a wounded jackal, with a strong vitality, with a strong sense of direction in the night, found a small boat hidden in the reeds, rowed to the north alone, rescued three bandits who swam in the lake, and the four bandits paddled together to escape the Qing army's several encirclements

After that, Sun Guilu became a bandit in Lunan and refused to accept the recruitment of the imperial court, and he committed crimes and scourges in Shandong for more than ten years, and he was still at ease, and the people of Shandong talked about the tiger and changed his name to Sun Guilu as the "Nine Lives Tiger"

In the early morning, the leaders of all walks of life gathered in the Zhang Liang Temple on Weishan Island, Li Guolou, Bai Langning, Ping'an, He Fengyu, Zhu Honglan and others respectfully gave the Marquis Zhang Liang incense and kowtowed, and offered three sacrifices of fresh melons and fruits

Zhang Liang's fiefdom of Liuxian County is in Weishan Lake, the changes of history, the river diversion makes Liuxian no longer exist, Liuxian has long been submerged in the boiling lake, but Zhang Liang has become a legendary figure, descendants built four Zhang Liang temples near Zhang Liang's fiefdom, all say that Zhang Liang turned into an immortal here

Zhangliang temple near the mountain by the water, simple and elegant, all the year round clouds and mist mist mist mist all the year round, a water in front of the temple and a river behind the temple into a state of encirclement again, the temple is quiet and solemn all around, there are 3 mountain gates, 3 halls, 4 east and west wings respectively, 4 rooms are in the courtyard layout, there are 6 stone tablets inside and outside the temple, there are 209 cypress trees in the cemetery, 16 poplar trees, pine and purple cypress, tall and green, surrounded by great statue of protecting the Dharma and guarding the road

The second water is light and low, such as the song of the piano, the bird's language is crisp and idling, and the sound is transmitted; Coupled with the exquisiteness of the temple, the tower emerges, so that people linger and forget their feelings, such as the clouds, mist and change, the realm of impermanence, suddenly fluttering, the feeling of immortal travel, outside the world, after worshipping, everyone came to the east wing, sat on the round-backed chair, talked and laughed, a big victory brought them closer, there is no kind of bad here, all of them are heroes, so one is louder than the other, the sound of the big pot in the corridor is spread around, for the people who have not slept all night, this fragrance is more comfortable than sandalwood

Li Guolou's troops are divided into four routes, one mosquito boat and a few sailing ships can liberate an island, and the other islands can be occupied without bloodshed, and there will be no bandits who surrender and shout, and there will be no stubborn bandits

Li Guolou's face sank like water, thinking about it, although he said that it doesn't matter about civil affairs, but human life is a matter of heaven, and some things still have to be said, otherwise, the Boxer Boxer, which is poisoned by superstitious thoughts, will engage in human blood steamed buns, ask God to possess the body and other things

Li Guolou was embarrassed by the new generation of vermilion lanterns, this toad wants to eat swan meat, and he doesn't weigh how many catties and taels he has, Li Guolou coughed and interrupted everyone's words, and said solemnly: "The official is talking about it, and the four islands are handed over to the boxers to settle down, and the official still has it, but you have to be a little more restrained in the vermilion lantern, let Lao Yang come to see me, and I am not allowed to engage in any activities to worship the heavens, so that the deceased can rest in peace as soon as possible, I know that his meritorious son is sacrificing for the country, and he will ask the governor of Shandong for credit."

Yang Jinhe's second son Yang Muqiang was unlucky, he died in the landing war, Yang Jinhe wanted to avenge his son, and he wanted to kill three prisoners on his back to commemorate his son Yang Muqiang, who died in battle, but the paper couldn't hold the fire, and still let Li Guolou know that this kind of thing was very barbaric and cruel, and now Li Guolou is unwilling to kill more, retract the cruel words he said a few days ago, and do not allow Yihe to engage in bloody sacrificial activities

Zhu Honglan didn't wear a veil, and snorted: "It's Li Zhentai, I'll go and persuade Brother Yang, but people can do anything when they're angry, I don't dare to guarantee it."

Li Guolou waved his hand a little annoyed: "This is a military order, you go to pass the order, and weigh the consequences yourself."

Zhu Honglan looked at Ping'an, and immediately comprehended and said urgently: "It's me, I'm going to find Brother Yang, what are you really hiding, I can't hide from the first day of junior high school, but I can't hide fifteen deaths, a son is for the noble cause of Yihequan, and I can't mix personal grievances."

The vermilion lantern stopped in the corridor with a bowl of hot porridge, sitting in front of a table of eight immortals, sipping porridge slowly, obviously with a big mouth, but only using a short paragraph in the middle, it can be seen that the current vermilion lantern is learning peace, and she is learning to be peaceful, and she is learning to look like this, she is reluctant to fall in love with Li Guolou, thinking of the adventure with Li Guolou in the Guandi Temple, and also wants to join Li Guolou's harem, but unfortunately Li Guolou did not give her a chance, so that she was lost until now

Li Guolou handed Bai Langning a military order, let the 2,000 victorious army return to Dagu first, Bai Langning was a little reluctant, and wanted to fight at the foot of the Baoqinggu Mountain, but Li Guolou told him that there would be a more difficult task waiting for the victorious army, so that the troops could rest and recuperate, which was the capital to continue fighting, implying that Bai Langning's mountain warfare was not suitable for the ever-victorious army, and the loss of the army was not a good deal, so don't chase ducks to the shelves

Bai Langning accepted the check of 100,000 silver dollars, calmly handed it to the adjutant, and said that he would stay in the Weishan Lake Islands to dig treasures, and said that Chang Shengjun would rest in Weishan Lake for a week before taking a boat back to Dagukou

Li Guolou had no choice but to disband the Changsheng Army when the world was too peaceful, and the Changsheng Army would dig up the graves of the Weishan Lake Islands, and he could only warn Bai Langning not to dig up the tombs of the dead in the ancient tombs, and Bai Langning would not touch them, and Li Guolou said a few perfunctory words, hoping that Li Guolou would leave Weishan Lake as soon as possible

There is no need to talk about many things in depth, just look at how the spoils of war are consciously collected, and how the various departments divide the benefits, so they can negotiate at breakfast, Li Guolou is rich and rich, and he distributes all the goods and goods to all walks of life, and only needs the fifty mules and horses that have been seized

Yanzhou general soldier He Fengyu, sinuses reddened, bandits' seventy or eighty ships are in the hands of the Yanzhou army, Li Guolou did not even mention the issue of the distribution of ships, that is to say, this favor was given to him, with these ships, he can organize a fleet in the future to specialize in water smuggling, Chang Shengjun wants to take a boat back to Dagukou, take care of his birds, let Shandong governor Zhang Renjun arrange troop transports, He Fengyu clamored to attack, hugging the calf, the Yanzhou army wants to fight alone, and the garrison army in Lincheng

Li Guolou said while sipping porridge: "There is at least one million taels of silver on the calf, but unfortunately we can't attack it, and then I will mainly negotiate, I have tried my best in mountain warfare, I can't afford to play the new army and not participate in the next battle, I am likely to leave Shandong, maybe this is the last time to meet with you."

He Fengyu was anxious, put the bowl and said angrily: "Brother Xian, how can you go, as soon as you leave, I will definitely be deprived of military power, if you are punished, maybe you will be imprisoned to atone for your crimes, and the silver will make me bankrupt, the back of my ass is not clean, no matter which one is a violation of national law and military discipline, I don't know how much you will be knocked out by those bastards, you can't go."

He Fengyu begged Li Guolou bitterly to let Li Guolou be a guarantee and let him get through this difficulty, otherwise he would go to tea and cool down, and he, the general soldier of Yanzhou with a thousand people, would also come to an end

Shandong is Li Hongzhang's sphere of influence, Li Guolou is Li Hongzhang's descendant, if he is Li Hongzhang, Li Hongzhang will not return the ticket, Li Guolou made a guarantee to He Fengyu, patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, old He Yanzhou, the general soldier is none other than you, how can you resign if you don't have a term of office, even if I put on the cool hat on my head, I will ensure that you pass."

He Fengyu landed on the ground with a stone in his heart, picked up the steaming porridge and said with a smile: "I want this sentence from Brother Xian, how hard I work this time, Brother Xian will need to use the Yanzhou Army in the future, even if I desperately eat puffer fish, I will be a death squad."

Li Guolou said: "Lao He hugs the calf, the devil is a masterpiece, and it is okay if you can't attack, but the outer defense line still has to fight, and you have to put enough pressure on Sun Meijing in order to talk about success in a short period of time, if it drags on for a long time, the army's salary and silver can't keep up, I'm afraid that the complaints will be vented on your head, and losing the car to protect the commander is in line with the art of war, and I can't offend other generals and deputy generals for you alone, you have to understand."

He Fengyu never thought that there would be such a thing, but Li Guolou said it very reasonably, all the troops in Shandong are a bunch of people with a desire for profit, and even his Yanzhou army is also this virtuous, and hurriedly said: "Thank you, brother Xian, for telling me bluntly, next, my Yanzhou army will be the best to chase after the poor, and I will not give Sun Meijing a chance to resurrect."

Li Guolou sipped porridge as steadily as Mount Tai Shi and said with a smile: "Lao He, as long as you are willing to work hard, I will kill Sun Meijing thousands of miles away."

He Fengyu wanted to dig out Li Guolou's old bottom, but Li Guolou's city was very deep, but not to mention Kong Ming, who was like a lupine scarf, everything was under control, so he almost didn't give He Fengyu a tip

The hot porridge was sweet, but Li Guolou's face became ugly, and after a big victory in front of everyone, he saw the despicability of human nature, and the scene he saw in the cave where the meat tickets were held made him forget the remains of the two children for a long time, and made him full of murderous intentions

The meat ticket in the cave was carried out, the situation inside was miserable, it was impossible to express in words, people were in a hurry, and everything was done, and the group of meat tickets was also survival of the fittest, and the first people to be eaten were of course children

Hearing that there were children's remains in the cave, Li Guolou thought it was a child killed by bandits, and when he brought it out, he looked at the two wreckage, Li Guolou almost wanted to kill all those meat tickets, and stared at the twenty-nine meat tickets viciously, and from the beginning to the end, he wanted to see which people had eaten human flesh, and these meat tickets were all children of wealthy families, from their twenties to seven or eight years old, and people of all ages and levels

I didn't look at it, I didn't know, I saw that Li Guolou was completely disappointed, and he left with his legs, and he comforted these meat tickets, promised to send them home as soon as possible, and wanted to receive a few righteous sons, now he didn't care about these meat tickets, and later thought that eating human flesh was also forced to be a helpless move, so he didn't say a word, Li Guolou was no longer demanding of the living meat tickets, but there was no one to be seen, and no chief went to comfort the rescued hostages, took care of three meals a day, and threw the twenty-nine rescued hostages in a courtyard

They also knew why the officers and soldiers looked at them differently, and they didn't mention too much, asked for too much food, and slept when they were full, hoping to leave Weishan Island as soon as possible, forget everything that happened here, and be a new person when they returned to their hometown
