Chapter 128: Blood Evidence of the Massacre (2)
During that battle, the lieutenant and his men guarded a three-story restaurant in the colonial governor's palace in Tongxiang. They used their guns to build a network of fire that water could not splash through, and in front of this network of fire, hundreds of people fell.
Aka also killed a lot of dark-skinned people like him with his own hands, watching those who looked very similar to himself holding scythes for harvesting crops, desperately shouting the spells taught to them by the wizard and rushing up, Aka's mood was nervous at first, and then excited, slowly, he shot out boxes of + bullets, and his nervous mood slowly calmed down. It seems that when a bullet is ingested into the opponent's body, it is no different from hitting the plantain tree used for practice.
After the battle, Acre counted the corpses that had fallen in the direction of his defenseβone hundred and twenty-three or one hundred and thirty-two? After all these years, he doesn't remember very well.
But for his excellence in this battle, he was recommended by the lieutenant for a medal and was awarded the rank of corporal. Tonight, veteran Acre once again solemnly brought the somewhat oxidized silver medal, ready to destroy the enemy and save lives once again - to destroy the enemy.
From after midnight until two or three o'clock, the inn had already contained nearly 100 citizens who had fled from all over the city to take refuge. And the numbers are growing - the guards have repelled several waves of thugs with a variety of homemade weapons, and in order to deter Xiaoxiao, they have decisively hung their bodies upside down and hung them from the treetops in the streets.
And Huang Taiji said to Cheng Qi after carefully observing the situation in various parts of the city: "The situation is not optimistic, I am afraid that the officials in the city have lost control of the situation." I think we're going to find a way to break through. β
"As you can see, the riots happened almost simultaneously in several neighborhoods, and now they're almost all over the city. There was such a big mess. Neither the army nor the security police showed any signs of repression. This only shows - either they themselves are the organizers and participants of the riots, or they have already been beheaded by the rioters. β
Huang Taiji put down the binoculars: "Without further ado, let's go in immediately." β
Cheng Qi still has to listen to the words of the transfer master Huang Taiji, but where to turn has become a problem. Huang Taiji observed carefully: "I suggest evacuating to the north. The railway station is in the north of the city. So many people can only be evacuated by train. It doesn't work any other way. β
When the boss heard such a frustrating remark, he couldn't help but be anxious: "If I evacuate, then my store ......"
Huang Taiji said: "Sacrifice your wealth and save your life, boss, the whole city is in turmoil, there are still hundreds of thousands of Uighur rebels outside, and we now only have less than ten long and short guns, and the total ammunition is only a few hundred rounds." Even if you can hold on to today, you won't be able to survive the sunset. When the time comes, it will be difficult to evacuate. β
As he spoke, he took the map and ran his finger north along the railway line: "This is the apple city of Almaty (Almaty means Kazakh word for place where apples are abundant). Let's go here, this is the location of the Northern Command of the Xia Army, the strategic center, and it should be safe. β
Cheng Qi loudly beckoned to his companions and told them about Huang Taiji's decision.
Although Almaty is also an important city in Yibo Province, because it is the station of the Northern Command, the army and their families in the city account for the vast majority, and Ma Wei's forces failed to infiltrate, and Huang Taiji saw through his pants at a glance and wisely chose a safe retreat path for himself.
There are few cities in Kazakh province, and to put it more radically, it is all steppes and deserts. Located on the southern shore of Lake Balkhash, Almaty is strategically located at the confluence of the provinces of Yibo and Kazakh and the Ili region in the east.
The Northern Command has a heavy presence here: the elite 5th, 17th, and 20th Cavalry Divisions live here. According to the information obtained by Huang Taiji from Lieutenant Colonel before, the Fifth Division was ready to go, and the Seventeenth Division was also mobilized as a reserve. Together with the 1st Cavalry Division that rushed back from the south, the three full cavalry divisions were enough to fight a battle to destroy the country.
Gulandam and his children also came to the hall, and there was a steady stream of new refugees coming to take refuge in the inn. Not even having time to make tools to help them expel the hateful thugs, Huang Taiji couldn't help but sigh that unarmed civilians are tantamount to lambs in the face of riots. But a well-trained soldier, even with just one squad, is enough to crush an entire neighborhood.
However, Huang Taiji also believes in another saying: a flock of sheep led by a lion is far better than a flock of lions led by a sheep. He quickly divided the citizens who had fled in the hall into groups, each with a few strong youths, and distributed knives from the kitchen, and then distributed dry food parcels to the women and children. When the sky was bright, after everyone drank a meal of wine, they put out a long snake formation, with sharp soldiers taking the lead, women and children in the middle, Aka and Guo Shan pressing the formation behind, and everyone marched towards the train station together.
Although the boss is a little reluctant to his family business, he understands that if he is entangled in yellow and white things at this time, he will be asking for his own death. He also carried a large bag and a small bag, and went out to flee with Huang Taiji and others - the future account, waiting to be settled with the rebels in the future.
It is only five or six miles from the inn to the railway station, but this short distance is not easy to walk, along the way, they will encounter refugees who flee in a hurry from time to time, and thugs with bloody knives, but those thugs are good at bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, they only dare to dangle a few hundred meters away when they see such a mighty team, and do not dare to come forward to cut and kill.
When passing by a residential area, hearing screams and cries for help from inside, Huang Yang suddenly couldn't help it: 'I'm going to save them!' β
Huang Taiji rebuked him and said: "Breaking away from the big team now is death!" β
Huang Yang said: "But if I hear the cry for help and am indifferent, I will never be at ease in my life!" As he spoke, he pulled out his pistol and was about to go over, Cheng Qi shouted: "Huang Yang, wait for me, let's go together!" β
"What a fool." Huang Taiji muttered, "Go and come back quickly!" Catch up with us as soon as possible! β
Huang Yang and Cheng Qi beckoned to them, trotted into the nearest residence, as soon as they entered the house, they smelled an extremely strong smell of blood, and when they went upstairs, the male owner was lying on the floor, and the back of his pajamas was stained with blood. Cheng Qi pushed open the door of the bedroom and saw a scene like hell:
The young hostess was stripped naked, her body was covered with signs of humiliation, her hair was disheveled, a cut was made on her neck, and sauce-colored blood spurted out of the wound, staining most of the sheets red. Under her bed, a baby curled up on the floor. Huang Yang picked up the child in distress, but found that the child was no longer breathing.
"What a beast!" Huang Yang shouted with tears, and at this time, Cheng Qi heard a cry for help from another courtyard behind him. He leaned on the window and looked out, only to see a small courtyard opposite the downstairs, the lights of the house were flickering, and it seemed that the mob had not yet left.
"Let's go! Go over there! Cheng Qi pulled Huang Yang, and the two hurriedly ran out of the back door to the small courtyard, only to hear the sobbing of the young woman after being humiliated and the wild laughter of the thug after the success of the mob.
"Go to hell!" Cheng Qi roared and rushed into the house, raising his pistol and aiming it at the head of a thug who was bowing his head and fastening his belt. The echo of the shot in the room made his ears hurt a little, but the white brains burst out with the plasma, which made him feel even more sick.
Huang Yang held a revolver in one hand, and fired a bow left and right at the two thugs. Beat them to the point that their hearts burst and their deaths were ugly.
Cheng Qi noticed a few unclothed women huddled in the corner, and he walked over and pulled them up: "It's okay, it's okay." The bad guys are dead. β
Pity these women, all of them have dull expressions and blank eyes, Cheng Qi feels that he is not pulling a living person, but all like wooden people. Even a poke won't make an "ouch" sound. I can't help but think that they have been stimulated too much tonight, and I am afraid that they will not be able to adapt for a while.
Huang Yang counted, there were three women here, but how to place them became a big problem. With their current state of mind, it seemed impossible to expect them to be able to keep up with the group, and it was impossible to leave them behind. What's more, they noticed that there were also cries for help elsewhere, and there were riots everywhere, so they couldn't afford to waste time here.
"Take them away!" Cheng Qi's eyes rolled and he thought about it. I saw that he untied the belts of the thugs and wrapped them together, and then strung them together, and Huang Yang led them in front, walking forward like a lamb.
Cheng Qi took the lead in front and entered another room, which was equally miserable: the man choked a thug by the neck until the back of his heart was pierced by a steel knife and did not let go. The hostess threw herself down at the threshold and clung to the leg of one of the thugs, who refused to let go even after being beaten to the point where her nose was bruised and her face was swollen. Cheng Qi went up and knocked down the thug with one shot, and found that the hostess was already out of breath and out of breath.
"Madame, ma'am." He lifted the hostess up: "It's okay, it's okay, we'll take you out of here." β
The hostess fell to the ground and said weakly, "I...... No more...... We...... Together...... Go find my child...... They hid in the ......" Following the direction the hostess pointed out last, Cheng Qi found the trembling sister and brother in the firewood room, and when he brought them out, the hostess was no longer breathing.
With tears in his eyes, he endured his grief. They carried the couple into the hall, covered them with sheets, and set a fire to burn the whole house.
The sister and brother hugged a family heirloom rosewood box, wiped away their tears, and followed Huang Yang and them out of this sad place.
