Chapter 457: Those who come and fall will not be accepted
On March 29, the Mongol soldiers, whether the Manchurian soldiers, could no longer wait for the rations that would be distributed every day.
The Qing army ran out of food, and the hungry Mongols began to kill horses to satisfy their hunger, and the Manchurian soldiers also began to kill horses to satisfy their hunger after enduring it for a day. In order to survive, even if the horse meat cannot be eaten at all, they have to eat it when they are extremely hungry, and they have no other choice but to starve to death or swell to death. In the face of survival, Jidu's ban is nothing more than a fart.
Jidu knew about the killing of the horse, but he didn't stop it, and he didn't get angry. The 25-year-old Prince Jane has long lost the vigor he had when he went south, and in the eyes of Beledulyou, Prince Jane is now just a walking corpse-like skin, and the prince of the Xinjueluo family is already waiting for death.
Looking at Jidu with a dead face, the leader Yiertu was very unwilling, he came up with the last method, while the soldiers still had the strength to quickly organize a breakthrough, break through from Xuanwu Mountain to Jieling, and then run to Jiangxi, as much as he could, it was better than starving to death in Jieshiwei.
The road from Xuanwu Mountain to Jieling is full of deep mountains and old forests, there are no guides, and there is no food, and it is not easier to take this road than to storm the Taiping army. Thousands of armies gave up all their baggage, abandoned their war horses and plunged into the deep mountains and old forests where they were unfamiliar, and no one knew what the result would be.
Yiertu's method is a breakthrough for him, but it is better to take the lives of thousands of Manchu Meng's children to save one person's life.
"What kind of face does this king have to go back?"
Jidu got up silently, didn't say a word, and walked out withered. He couldn't go back like this, he couldn't go back alone. That would make him worse than killing him. He didn't want to go back and see Shunzhi Xiao'er's ridicule and ridicule, and he didn't want to be despised by the Eight Banners.
Yiertu saw that Jidu did not listen to persuasion, and was so anxious that he could only stomp his feet. But there is no way. The corners of Du Eryou's mouth moved, looked at Jidu's back and stopped talking, sighed lightly, and retreated.
Du Eryou did not want Jidu to flee back to Beijing, which would be a shame for the Qing Dynasty and Manchuria, if Jidu died here. It is the best explanation for the Manchurian children and their families who died in the war, and it is also an explanation for the court and the emperor. After all, the prince has died here, what else is there to blame.
Jidu is determined to beg for death to make Du Eryou feel relieved. He was very afraid that Jidu would be greedy for life and afraid of death, and would do things that humiliated Manchuria. Now he was more worried about the Mongols, who had not been to see Jidu for a few days, and who had brought his group of Mongol officers to discuss something. Du Eryou was very afraid that Su Rile would suddenly turn back and surrender to the Taipingkou. So he told Nahai to keep an eye on Surile. If there is any change in the Mongols, they must be suppressed immediately, and if nothing can be done, Jidu must not be allowed to fall into their hands.
Geng Jimao's Han domain surrendered to Taiping Kou is not terrible, Shang Kexi's death in the hands of Taiping Kou is not terrible, and even Li Shutai, the forehead of the Aixin Jueluo family, died in the hands of Taiping Kou, and the terrible Prince of Manchu fell into their hands.
It is difficult for Du Eryou to imagine the impact that a living Qing prince falling into the hands of the Taiping Kou would have on the Ming Dynasty and the Qing court.
He secretly resolved that no matter what, he would not let Jidu fall into anyone's hands alive
After Erdemuni returned from the pit. His face was flushed, and he couldn't sit. It's not standing, I will hold my stomach for a while, and I will touch my buttocks for a while, which is very uncomfortable.
Namutu grew up with Erdemuni, and Namutu's sister was Erdemuni's mother, so it was very uncomfortable to look at this nephew who was as old as himself, and Namutu couldn't help but step forward and ask him what was going on.
"I can't pull it out, and my stomach is uncomfortably swollen."
In front of his uncle, Erdemuni had nothing to be embarrassed to say, he told Namutu that he seemed to have an iron stone stuffed into his stomach, which was heavy, and he wanted to pull it out, but after squatting in the pit for a long time, he couldn't pull anything out. Several times I pushed too hard, and I felt like my entire asshole was pulling out, but when I looked down, there was nothing. It was uncomfortable, it was really fatal, and it tortured a Mongolian man to death.
The nephew's description silenced Namutu, and after a long time, Fang told Erdemuni that in fact, he hadn't pooped for three days, and he obviously had a desire to defecate in his abdomen, but he couldn't pull it out.
"I said earlier that the horse meat can't be eaten, and Zuo Ling has to ask us to kill and eat it, now it's okay, it's all swollen in the stomach." Erdemuni did not blame himself for being greedy, and desperately stuffed the horse's flesh into his stomach, but he complained that the leader told them to kill the horse.
Namutu smiled bitterly: "What can I do if I don't have food, I can't starve to death?" ”
Erdemuni sighed, and suddenly said: "I heard that the Manchurians have oil and water there, why don't we borrow some to moisten our stomachs, and if we have oil and water, it must be lighter to pull." ”
"Manchurians have oil and water to lend us?"
Namutu was very suspicious that the Manchurian soldiers would give them a small amount of vegetable oil, this bone eye, oil and water that can lubricate the stomach and intestines are more precious than gold, this is something that can save people's lives!
"Damn, our Mongolian sons are working hard for their Manchurians, what's wrong with borrowing some oil and water!"
Erdemuni is not a fork, he used to be very afraid of those Manchu soldiers, but now he is not afraid of anything, his life is going to be lost, and he is still afraid of those Manchu soldiers?
Namutu was a little moved, but he was not impulsive, but said to his nephew: "Have you heard, Ah Chi and they secretly went to Lufeng two days ago to exchange some rice noodles with the Southern Barbarians, I heard them say that Aletta lived a very nourishing life after voting for the Southern Barbarians, and now he is a staff general Aletta called Ah Chi They also voted for the Southern Barbarians, Ah Chi didn't dare, and came back with the rice noodles, but it seems that the flag owner didn't blame him." ”
"What do you want to say?" Erdemuni glanced at his uncle.
"Why don't we vote for the Southern Barbarians."
Namutu did not hide his thoughts, and told his nephew truthfully that he did not want to wait here to die anymore, nor did he want to eat horse meat anymore, he wanted to surrender to the Taiping army, and like Alta, he changed his court to work for the Han people, so that they could survive.
Erdemuni was stunned, but he was not surprised or angry at all, he did not think much about it and supported his uncle's idea, and that night the two of them sought an errand from Zuo Ling to inspect the fort, and after leaving the fort, they went straight to the Taiping army defense line in the north.
"We are Mongols, we are here to surrender!"
When Namutu and Erdemuni saw the Taiping fortress from afar, they cried out loudly, fearing that the Taiping army on the opposite side would kill them by mistake. Soon, someone from the other side came out and brought them over, and without saying anything, they took out two large bowls of rice and a bowl of broth for them.
Eating the rice and drinking the broth made Namutu and Erdemuni feel like they were in heaven. The bowl of broth made my stomach feel much better, and the feeling of swelling was reduced a lot.
Namutu wanted to eat another bowl, but when he thought of the horse meat accumulated in his belly, he didn't dare to eat it again, so he got up and asked the Taiping army: "We have surrendered now, but I don't know how your army arranges for us?" ”
The Taiping Jun smiled, and suddenly pointed to the way Namutu and the others came, and said, "Go back." ”
"Go back?"
Namutu and Erdemuni were shocked: they had come to surrender, why did the Taiping army drive them away?
The smile on the Taiping Army's face was no longer there, and he changed his cold face and said: "My family is handsome and has an order, and those who come to surrender will not accept it!" Unless you take the head of the people! (To be continued.) )
