Chapter 113: What is the fear of life
Zeng Alu's mother-in-law kept trying to rush up, but was desperately pulled by the village woman, but the calf suddenly broke free from where and pounced, shouting: "Daddy! ”
Then reflexively went to catch the Qing soldier, the Qing soldier shook his hand and the calf grabbed the Qing soldier's hand and bit it, the Qing soldier roared, angrily kicked the calf in the chest, and kicked the child more than a meter away.
Zeng Alu's mother-in-law screamed: "My son! He pounced on him and picked up the calf, who looked at his mother while vomiting blood, and said painfully: "Mother, my chest hurts..."
His mother said in a panic: "It hurts, my mother will rub it for you, and it won't hurt if you rub it..."
Zeng Alu's mother-in-law went to touch the child's chest, but only touched the concave piece, and suddenly did not dare to move again, but when she didn't know what to do, the calf coughed up another mouthful of blood, and then did not move.
Zeng Alu's mother-in-law cried out bitterly: "My son! ”
Zeng Alu listened to the movement and climbed two steps, but he couldn't get up, so he took a breath and shouted, "Go find the doctor..."
Zeng Alu's mother-in-law immediately picked up her son and said, "Yes, go to the doctor, go to the doctor..."
Qing Bing saw that another one had died, and his anger subsided, and he spit out and staggered away, no one in the village dared to stop him, and Li Zheng just looked at it.
Zeng Alu's mother-in-law did not come back that night, Zeng Alu heard that the mother-in-law was crazy, holding her son and not knowing where to go, and a family that could still be maintained became like this in only three days, and Zeng Alu's whole person became sluggish.
What is the wife and family are broken and people die, the tragedy is nothing more than that, and Zeng Alu's case is not an exception, the tragedy is constantly being staged where the Qing army said, not to mention that there is still a living mouth, even the slaughter of the whole village is just to exterminate the bandits.
On the second day, the Qing army crossed the river, and Li Zheng came over and said to Zeng Alu: "Old Zeng, I am also very sympathetic to your family's affairs, so you don't have to go to cross the river today, I'll find someone to go instead of you..."
Zeng Alu shook his head and stood up, as if he had made an important decision, and said, "No, I'll go!" ”
Li Zheng looked at him as if he was going to die generously, and asked in his heart: "You..., this is unacceptable, you still have..."
Zeng Alu asked with despair in his eyes, "What else do I have?" Cheap life, don't forget that your surname is Zeng! ”
Li Zheng muttered for a long time and asked, "It's my surname Zeng, this is going to sit together..."
Li Zheng's words made Zeng Alu desperate, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! I'm not going! ”
When Li was leaving, Zeng Alu took the harpoon behind the door and walked to the Yellow River, broke a reed by the river, dived into the water, and slowly swam towards the place where the Qing army stopped the boat.
How can there be a boatman who can't water? For Zeng Alu, who has been dealing with water all his life, even if he doesn't bring reeds for ventilation, he is sure that he will not let the Qing soldiers find out, but today is different from the past, and he must hit with one blow.
The flow of the Yellow River in this area is quite gentle, which is also the reason why the Qing army chose to cross the river here, and so Zeng Alu touched the bottom of the boat, listened for a while, quietly showed his head, and there was a hustle and bustle on the shore, although the Qing army had been divided into orders, but it was still chaotic to board the boat.
Zeng Alu observed for a while, and looked away in disappointment, there were no Qing soldiers wearing cotton armor with nails among the first batch of people to cross the river.
Zeng Ah waited in the gap of the ship for a whole morning, only to see the late arrival of the old man, the old man came, the team was even more chaotic, these old men were carrying a large bag of things in the war, because there were still people with entourage to carry equipment.
Zeng Alu looked at the dazzling piece, it is not easy to find those few people among one or two thousand people, it is not good enough to help in God, Zeng Alu saw a burst of laughter at the pair of flag soldiers who went to his house yesterday, and the one who was laughed at was the Qing soldier who was bitten by the calf, and at this time he was bandaged like a bear paw and scolded there.
Zeng Aru changed his breath and dived towards the place where several people boarded the boat, and when he touched the bottom of the boat, he took advantage of the chaotic footsteps of boarding the boat to insert the harpoon into the crack of the boat, holding the harpoon with one hand and sticking out the reed with the other hand.
The boat moved slowly, leaving the temporary dock, rowing towards the opposite shore, the boat came from time to time laughter, Zeng Alu waited patiently, after a long time Zeng Alu estimated that the boat had rowed to the center of the Yellow River, and began to shake the boat, swaying back and forth a few times, the Qing soldiers screamed and didn't know what to do, the boat boss saw Zeng Alu's eyes red like a beast with a harpoon, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak.
The Qing soldiers, a group of landlubbers, on the rocking boat, not to mention the counterattack, couldn't stand steadily, just like that, puff puff, puff, all of them were overturned into the river by Zeng Alu.
Seeing this situation, Zeng Alu turned over and climbed onto the boat, the boat boss looked at Zeng Alu who was holding a harpoon and jumped off the boat in fright, Zeng Alu raised his harpoon to look at the struggling Qing army, and stabbed hard, one or two, this is no different from piercing a fish, and this person is bigger than a fish and stupid than a fish.
By the time the Qing troops on the other ships reacted, Zeng Alu was already standing on the boat laughing, bleeding tears from the corners of his eyes while laughing.
The Qing army took out their weapons and shouted, but there were few who knew how to water, the boat rowed towards Zeng Alu's boat, Zeng Alu was not afraid, rowed the boat towards the nearest collision, boom both boats overturned, Zeng Alu turned to the bottom of the boat, continued to fish, put life and death aside Zeng Alu was extraordinarily brave, killed more than ten people in a row, and the more he killed, the redder his eyes became.
Seeing that there were no more floating Qing soldiers around, Zeng Alu looked around, and was so frightened that the Qing soldiers hurriedly retreated towards the side of the boat, and as a result, several of them flashed out of the water.
Zeng Alu's glasses lit up and jumped into the water with a harpoon, and after a period of chaos, the water returned to calm, and there was nothing else except blood flowers, and the Qing soldiers were so frightened that they desperately asked the boatman to row the boat out of this water.
At this moment, there were gongs, drums and horns on the other side, and from a distance you could see that the Qing soldiers on the shore began to panic, and then the sound of muskets changed from intermittent to dense, but it did not seem to be the sound of their own birds.
Everyone was still watching from the boat, and they saw that the Qing soldiers on the shore were indeed desperately jumping into the boat and trying to run back.
It's just that there are many people and few boats, some people are squeezed out of the water, and some boats are too many people and are directly overturned, and those who can really leave are those who can run early when they see the opportunity.
Li Qingyuan commanded calmly here, the Qing army was even more chaotic than imagined, the Qing army that landed on the shore did not line up for the first time, but gathered in groups of three or five to chat and gamble money, Li Qingyuan's seven battalions advanced forward in a line, and the Qing army was bound to scatter like birds and beasts when the guns rang out.
This is not a battle at all, Li Qingyuan stood on a high place and watched how it looked like a duck driving down the river, so far more people have fallen into the water and been washed away than killed by muskets.
This is a massacre! The Qing soldiers were driven to the improvised dock area, and the Qing troops gathered in groups neither chose to fight on their backs nor chose to surrender, everyone only knew to stand behind others, as long as they were not at the front.
