Chapter Ninety-Five: Persuasion
At the mass grave, dozens of men in gray cloth robes were gathering nervously towards the town, only a few of them had weapons in their hands, and the rest did not have a stick. Looking at the age, there are also old and young, the oldest hair is gray, and the youngest looks afraid that the hair has not grown.
These people, including those with weapons in their hands, would be nervous, and their eyes staring in the direction of the town would not dare to move, as if they could not save their lives if they moved around.
On the highest grave stood a thin man with a pointed chin, who, like the men below, was also led by the fighting on the other side of the town, until he saw his own soldiers and horses rushing into the town, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then jumped off the grave excitedly, and ran behind a mound of graves.
Behind the mound, a strong man was sitting cross-legged, holding a roast chicken in his left hand and a large knife in his right hand. When the pointed chin came, the strong man was munching on the chicken leg with taste, unaffected by the battle that was taking place on the other side of the town.
"Chen Tou, Qiu Ba has rushed in, we don't need to go up to see the situation."
Because he didn't have to go to the battlefield at home, he was very happy with his pointed chin, he leaned over to the strong man and said, but his eyes stared directly at the half roast chicken in the strong man's hand, and his throat swallowed involuntarily.
"You foodie!"
The strong man casually threw half of the roast chicken to the pointed chin, and suddenly slapped him in the cheers of the pointed chin, scolding: "They are Qiu Ba, what are you!" You're not a fucking thing! If you don't have a long memory, be careful that Lao Tzu tears your mouth! ”
"Yes, yes, the small is not a thing, the small is not a thing, the small one remembers, next time I don't dare to talk nonsense, you dissipate the gas, eliminate the gas"
The pointed chin smiled, although the face was hot and painful, but the smile did not change, while biting half a roast chicken in his mouth, he opened the wine pot next to the strong man, flatteringly stepped forward, and said flatteringly: "Head, come, take a sip of wine, smooth your stomach." ”
Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling man, the strong man glared at his pointed chin angrily, took the wine bottle and poured a few sips, then got up and stretched his waist, and did not avoid people, loosened the belt of his trousers and peed on the grave, and shook his head while urinating, with a comfortable look.
The pointed chin looked at the side, and he actually showed a stunned look, although he didn't say anything, but the strong man saw him like this, but it was very useful. Obviously, the strong man is also very satisfied with his own guy, and it is not an exaggeration to say "what a strange man".
After soaking in pee, the strong man trembled nervously, hastily tied the belt of his trousers, patted the shoulder of the pointed chin with the hand that touched the big bird just now, and grinned: "Qianhu They attacked?" ”
"It's attacked, the little one looks carefully, Qinggou can't stop it at all, Xinxing Town is ours!"
"Damn, why is this green camp so useless."
Hearing the affirmation of the pointed chin, the strong man was not much happy, but a little disappointed, and a few seconds later, he waved his hand to the group of subordinates who had fallen to the ground in their hearts, and shouted: "Don't look at it, Lord Qianhu has attacked, and your lives have been saved." ”
"Senno-sama is brave! The Taiping Camp is brave! Chen Tou is brave! ”
As if they had practiced beforehand, a group of old and young men unanimously shouted the same words, which would definitely be startled if someone else saw it, because the reaction of these people was really neat.
The strong man was very satisfied with the reaction of his subordinates, and he was not embarrassed by the sentence "Chen Tou Shenyong", so he snorted majestically, and waved his hand at everyone: "Go, follow Lao Tzu into the town and take a look!" ”
Everyone responded in unison: "Yes, Chen Tou!" ”
After walking a few steps, the strong man suddenly turned around and swept a group of subordinates, and then stared at them viciously and said: "Remember, after you go in, your hands and feet are sharper, don't ask someone to catch it, don't let people call it out, pick up the valuable ones, don't ask for those who are not good at hiding, if anyone is not good at asking people to arrest Lao Tzu, don't blame Lao Tzu for turning his face and being ruthless, give him a white knife in and out of the red knife!" Do you understand? ”
"Got it!"
Everyone was taken by the strong man's usual prestige, but only nodded in response, and no one dared to show a half dissatisfied look on his face.
The strong man glanced at the group of subordinates he had trained again, and then waved his hand: "Let's go!" ”
"The Han people don't kill the Han people, the brothers of the green camp, you have no way to escape, my family has said that as long as you lay down your arms and surrender, our Taiping Army will absolutely guarantee your safety!"
"The time for a pillar of incense is almost up, if you don't come out and surrender, you won't blame us for setting fire to the house!"
After the Qing army occupied Guangdong, Li Meng was killed because he refused to shave his hair and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and his home was also occupied by the Qing army. Because Li Meng was an official in the Ministry of Industry in Nanjing before his death, he built the house in his hometown like a garden in the south of the Yangtze River, with mountains and rivers, bamboo and flowers in the courtyard, which was very quiet. After Zhao Shiyuque occupied the dove's nest, he almost stayed in the courtyard every day and lewd the two women he snatched in Guangzhou. Le, he didn't go out of the house at all, all the orders of the green camp were issued by him from the house, and the battalion soldiers under his command rarely saw the chief adult out of the house to inspect once.
Now, Zhao Shiyu wanted to leave the mansion, his hesitation made him miss the best opportunity to escape, and when he found that he couldn't go, the Taiping army had already solved the green battalion soldiers who were resisting outside, and surrounded the Li Mansion under the guidance of the captives.
The courtyard wall of the Li Mansion was built quite high, and there were as many as 100 green battalion soldiers who retreated into the mansion, plus Zhao Shiyu had more than a dozen armored soldiers, relying on the cover of the courtyard wall to resist stubbornly, the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, the rabbit was anxious to bite people, and the remnants of the green battalion soldiers were trapped in the beast fight, and the Taiping army was unable to attack it for a while, so there was a scene of persuasion to surrender.
At the same time of persuasion, Zhou Shixiang ordered Ge Yi, Jiang He, Shao Jiugong and other general banners to lead their troops to search and arrest the whole town, and ordered the Tie Yi Department to block the road in and out of Xinxing, so that not a single green battalion soldier would slip through the net.
In the process, some people did not know what kind of soldiers and horses the Taiping army was, and whether they would hurt their families, so they resisted the Taiping army with farm tools, iron tools and even kitchen knives, and the result was that more than a dozen innocent ghosts were added to the town.
The persuasion was ineffective, and after the specified time was up, the green battalion soldiers in the Li Mansion still had no intention of surrendering, and Zhou Shixiang was angry and ordered to set fire to the mansion, and at the same time transferred a team of sappers to let them line up in front of the gate of the Li Mansion with the earth-shaking thunder, and as soon as the green battalion rushed out, they threw the earth-shaking thunder to kill them.
