After the memorial service for the holy soldiers who died in the battle was completed, because the prisoners would have to wait for the next day, Feng Yunshan ordered to camp on the spot. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Then, Feng Yunshan asked Chen Yucheng to lead all the holy soldiers back to the camp, and he himself began to work on the matter of the British prisoners.

Lin Fengxiang led Feng Yunshan and Wu Chongyao, Liu Shengbang and Bai Huihuai to lead a team of guards to follow, traveled three miles, and came to several red single boats in the nearby river bay.

However, it was Lin Fengxiang who imprisoned all the British prisoners on a few ships and sent holy soldiers to guard them day and night to prevent them from escaping.

Lin Fengxiang told Feng Yunshan that a total of more than 750 British soldiers had been captured, but more than 10 people had committed suicide in the past two days, and Lin Fengxiang and Chen Yucheng, who were seriously injured, had not been treated, and more than 30 people died, and now there are 705 people left.

The Qing Demon and the people captured more than 800 people, most of them were mercenaries recruited temporarily on Hong Kong Island, and only more than 180 people were serious Qing Demon soldiers, most of them were flag soldiers, and they were all the personal soldiers of the Qing Demon Boss Baigui.

Feng Yunshan stayed on a big red boat in the middle, and asked Lin Fengxiang to bring the foreigners in batches and let Wu Chongyao ask questions.

The foreigner with the biggest official position was Major Charles, and Lin Fengxiang was the first to bring him over alone.

Wu Chongyao said in English: "Major Charles, your Minister Sir Wen Han has reached an armistice agreement with us, but it is a pity that your army invaded our land and slaughtered our soldiers and civilians for no reason, and someone must be responsible for this. Sadly, the person in charge of your launch is you, Major Charles! ”

Wu Chongyao saw that Charles didn't react, so he said more bluntly: "Major Charles, I don't know if you understand?" I mean, you have been handed over to us by your country. Now, are you willing to be loyal to the Holy King? ”

Charles struggled to shake off the two Saint Soldiers who were much shorter than him, but after a few days of imprisonment and a small amount of food, he had become very weak, and with the two Saint Soldiers firmly grasping his hands, he couldn't move at all.

He could only stare at Wu Chongyao opposite with angry eyes, and scolded viciously in English: "Shit, yellow-skinned monkey, inferior nation, also want me to be loyal? I owe only allegiance to Her Majesty the noble Queen Victoria! ”

"Let us go quickly, or the British Empire's fleet will sell you all to the New World as slaves when the fleet arrives." Charles shouted.

Wu Chongyao's face flushed angrily. He has been dealing with foreigners for a long time, and knows that they are selfish and greedy, but he is very friendly to his business partner.

Unexpectedly, this captured Yingyi foreigner would discriminate against his own nation so much, Wu Chongyao was suddenly furious, and wanted to go up and give this foreign ghost a few kicks. But as a subordinate, he didn't know what the Holy King thought, and he didn't dare to act rashly, so he turned sideways to look at Feng Yunshan for advice.

But when he saw Feng Yunshan get up and go over, he kicked Charles in the stomach and shouted angrily: "Commander Lin, since this foreign devil thinks that his white face is more noble than our yellow face, you call a few old brothers in Guangxi to wear a "big red robe" for him, so that he can experience the noble red face.

Lin Fengxiang didn't know what the foreigner said, which made Feng Yunshan so angry, and he was also shocked to let the old brothers in Guangxi use such a cruel punishment as "wearing a big red robe". The old brothers in Guangxi all know that the so-called "wearing a big red robe" is actually the torture of the Qing demon.

When he was in Yong'an City, there were often people who were tortured like this every few days, and the King of Heaven Dongwang also asked many holy soldiers and brothers to carry it out, saying that it was to practice courage, so many old brothers in Guangxi would do this craft.

He hurriedly agreed, and ordered the two guards to find someone to come over.

Wu Chongyao didn't know what this "wearing a big red robe" meant, but after a while, he saw four people walk in and were about to pull Charles out.

Feng Yunshan waved his hand and stopped the four of them.

He had just finished paying tribute to the saintly soldier brothers who died in battle, and he hated foreigners, and when he saw this Charles's foul language, he was angry and wanted to kill him. But after thinking about it, if he tortured people to death in anger, wouldn't it be the same as the Manchu Qing Dynasty in history, Hong Xiuquan, and Yang Xiuqing?

As a soul who has come from the civilized era, he can't open this head, so that he slowly gets used to and even enjoys this perverted pleasure.

He took a breath at the moment, waved his hand, and said, "Behead him directly, don't torture him too much." The head was sent to each battalion for viewing to vent the hatred of the soldiers. ”

......

The second group brought in 36 British officers.

It may have been when he came in, and he happened to meet four holy soldiers who carried Charles out in a murderous manner, and five of these officers, as soon as they entered the cabin, puffed and knelt on the plank.

One of the older British soldiers wept and pleaded: "O God, merciful General of the East, please forgive me for my sins. Don't kill me, don't kill me! ”

Some of the other British soldiers who did not kneel on the ground also trembled, and only a dozen British soldiers remained calm, surveying the situation in the cabin.

Wu Chongyao opened his mouth and said: "Soldiers, you invade our territory for no reason and kill our soldiers, your crime is unforgivable!" Your commander has been executed by us. But you are only executors, so the Merciful King gives you a chance to live freely by swearing allegiance to the King and joining us, or else you can only follow your commanders to God! ”

"Oh my God! You can't do that! ”

"My lord, I am willing to be loyal to the Holy King, I just ask you not to kill me!"

"I am also willing to swear allegiance to the Holy King! I swear to God! Don't kill me! ”

“.......”

The group of British officers immediately began to talk about it: some were crying hysterically, others were begging for mercy in agony, and others were muttering prayers for God to bless.

Feng Yunshan waited for them to be a little quieter, and said to Wu Chongyao: "Let them choose for themselves!" Those who are willing to serve the Holy Kingdom will be sent to a ship, given some good food, gathered first, and then sent people together to send them directly to Cheung Chau Island. ”

"If you don't want to be loyal to the king, you should send them back to the ship and continue to be imprisoned, and wait for the king to prepare a big gift for them!" Feng Yunshan commanded with a somewhat gloomy smile.

Wu Chongyao nodded, turned to the British officers and said, "Soldiers, it's time for you to choose!" Willing to join us, serve us, stand on the left! If you don't want to, stand to the right! ”

Suddenly, there was a chaos, causing dozens of guards in the cabin to pull out the card knives on their waists, and the British officers were quieter.

Nine people chose the left, 20 chose the right, and seven stood in the middle.

Well, what does it mean to not move? Feng Yunshan was stunned! Wu Chongyao said to the 7 people: "Which side do you seven choose?" ”

"This gentleman, we can serve you, but we have one condition!" The leader of the seven was a red-haired, freckled officer in his thirties, who stood up and said unhurriedly: "We are all Irish. We want to be paid to buy food and transport it back home to save our hungry loved ones. ”

"Oh? Irish? Feng Yunshan understood a little bit of the English spoken by the red-haired officer, although he did not know much about foreign history, he still had some understanding of the grievances and hatreds of Irish Britain.

It was not long after Britain annexed Ireland, and millions of people in Ireland had starved to death due to the collapse of potato production in the previous two years, coupled with the inaction of the British government. This was the time when the Irish hated Britain the most.

As the saying goes, the enemy of an enemy is a friend, and it seems that these Irish people also understand this truth!

"All seven of you are Irish?" Feng Yunshan asked in English himself.

"Yes! My lord! The red-haired officer looked at Feng Yunshan with a hopeful face, but he didn't expect that this big man also knew English.

As early as when they were captured, the seven of them had already discussed, taking advantage of this opportunity to see if they could change employers and earn more money in exchange for food. The British army did not treat ordinary soldiers very well, not to mention that they were Scottish soldiers, and they were even worse.

Unfortunately, Feng Yunshan did not immediately agree to them.

"Chongyao, you take 7 Irishmen to the cabin next door, and then tell them that we can agree to their terms! Then let them see next door that these British officers, who had deliberately killed our people, pointed them out! Feng Yunshan instructed Wu Chongyao.

"Yes, Holy King!" Wu Chongyao responded, and led a few holy soldiers to the inner cabin next door with seven Irishmen. According to Feng Yunshan's meaning, as soon as he told the Irish, the seven people were immediately overjoyed.

They have been stationed on Hong Kong Island for more than half a year, and they have long known the richness of this ancient country. The man who seemed to know that he was a big man agreed to their request without even asking the conditions, and there must have been a good salary waiting for them.

So, the red-haired officer of Irish nationality nodded his head again and again, indicating that he knew that there were several British soldiers who had slaughtered many rebels and civilians, and he would point them out and tell the holy soldiers next to him. They were more than happy to identify the British, who had a penchant for murder.

These Irish people value honesty very much, and have a kind of character that does what they promise to do well. At this moment, they have begun to not see themselves as British troops, but quickly plan for the new owner.

The red-haired officer even revealed what he knew about the defensive arrangements of the Governor's Palace on Hong Kong Island, and told Wu Chongyao that he was willing to lead the way for the holy soldiers during the attack on the Governor's Palace.
