In fact, Zhao Sihai is really not as unbearable as they guessed, yes, he Zhao Sihai doesn't want to die here in vain, and even has a plan to arrange a way back, but it is not just to save his life, but in line with the idea of staying in the green mountains and not afraid of no firewood.

After the first and second lines of defense were lost, Zhao Sihai knew that this Yutai Temple would definitely not be able to hold it, especially when he saw that the soldiers who withdrew to the hall were all frightened by the Qing army, and those old and weak women and children who fled into it were crying and grabbing the ground, he knew that this last line of defense could not be defended.

When the Qing army was outside to persuade him to surrender, Zhao Sihai was thinking about how to take Song Xianggong to escape, and he didn't have any idea of surrendering, but after Lin Wanfu and them came, he changed his mind, and surrender may not be a way to save his life. Even if he resists desperately, it will be over for a moment at most, rather than all the living people being slaughtered by the Qing army, it is better to surrender and pull down, no matter how bad it is, he can always save the lives of these thousands of old and weak women and children.

Of course, after deciding to surrender, Zhao Sihai also kept an eye on it, if the Qing army still wanted to kill them after surrendering, then he would lead someone to blast out a bloody road with earth-shaking thunder, even if he still couldn't rush out, he had to pull a few clear dogs on his back.

No matter what purpose Zhao Sihai agreed to surrender, Lin Wanfu and the rest of the camp elders were relieved, but some people raised concerns: What if General Affairs Song refused to surrender?

Lin Wanfu gritted his teeth and said, "If Lord Song refuses to surrender, we will tie him up, and we can't let him drag everyone to death alone, right?" ”

"No!"

Zhao Sihai shook his head categorically and said no, he said that he was only responsible for surrendering to Song Xianggong, but he would never tie up Song Xianggong to surrender, if Lin Wanfu had to do this, he would ask them to tie up even themselves!

Zhao Sihai had a resolute attitude, and there were dozens of soldiers under his command. Lin Wanfu Where did they dare to turn their faces with him, they had to promise that if Song Xianggong did not surrender, they would take the opportunity to act. Looking for the opportunity to come down on its own. As for Song Xianggong, no one asked him. If he has a way to escape, he will escape, and if he can't escape, he will be killed and killed.

Everyone agreed, Zhao Sihai no longer objected, and found Song Xianggong, who was arranging defense with Zhao Wu in the palace, squeaked a few words there, and finally persuaded him: "Mr. Song, Qinggou has surrounded us so much that we can't escape." As... It's better to come down. With that, he blushed.

"Surrender?"

Song Xianggong didn't expect Zhao Sihai to surrender, and looked at him in surprise. After that, he sighed, closed his eyes and struggled there for a while, and finally made a decision, he said: "If you want to descend you, I will never surrender, I have descended too many times in my life, let me be a man before I die." ”

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Zhao Wu who was stunned, but after more than ten seconds, he turned his head to look at Zhao Sihai. A little angry: "It's less than an hour before dawn, and we still have a few hundred people who can fight, if we go all out to break through." It doesn't have to be impossible to get out. But it's just like this, dare to ask Brother Zhao, are you worthy of Brother Zhou, worthy of the old brothers in Daqiao Mountain, and worthy of the dead Brother Hu? ”

Hearing this, Zhao Sihai was shocked, his face turned red again, he stared at Song Xianggong's face for a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "It's not that the four seas want to surrender." It's that the situation is up to us, and I'm afraid we won't be able to wait for Brother Zhou to bring troops to come and save us. Outside, Lin Wanfu and the gang of camp elders also want to surrender, if we stop them. In the end, I am afraid that it will harm the people who are still alive. Mr. Song took a closer look, the old and the young outside, if they really want to be killed by the Qing army, how can we bear it? Saying a thousand ways and ten thousand, dragging them on the road is our brother's ruthless and rogue method, and now since we can't protect them, what if we give them a way to live! ”

After Song Xianggong heard this, his expression was gloomy and he didn't speak, but a female voice came from behind him, "Zhao Baihu, but my father wants you to persuade Lord Song to surrender?" ”

Zhao Sihai followed the sound, but it was Lin Wan'er, who was accepted as a maid by Zhou Shixiang, this woman was holding a few cloth belts in her hands, and there were some blood stains on her hands and cheeks, obviously she had just bandaged the wounded.

"If it is really my father who wants Zhao Baihu to come, please ask Baihu to tell my father that even if everyone in this palace surrenders, his daughter will not surrender!"

After speaking, Lin Wan'er, who looked haggard, bowed lightly to Song Xianggong, and then continued to bandage the wounded soldier.

"100,000 soldiers have taken off their armor, and none of them are men."

Witnessing Lin Wan'er's departing back, Song Xianggong suddenly muttered to himself and sighed softly.

Zhao Sihai's face was hot, Lin Wan'er's words made him blush a little, and Song Xianggong's words made him even more ashamed, half a ring, he shook his head, smiled bitterly at Song Xianggong, and said: "That's it, Mr. doesn't want to surrender, Sihai will accompany him." But we can only take those who are willing to follow us to break through, we can't force those who are not willing to break through, it doesn't matter if we die, we have to give them a way out. If my husband agrees, I'll arrange for people to prepare for the breakout. ”

Song Xianggong nodded solemnly: "Okay, it's so decided, you are responsible for the breakout, I can get out of danger, and if I can't get out of danger, I will cut it off myself, so as not to be insulted by that tartar!" ”

"Good!"

Zhao Sihai also nodded happily, glanced at Zhao Wu, and the two of them turned around and left. After Zhao Sihai came out, Lin Wanfu immediately stepped forward quickly, waiting for Zhao Sihai's good news with an expectant face, but he didn't want Zhao Sihai to look at him coldly, and left without looking back, and Zhao Wu, who came out together, also gave him a heavy "puff", and walked away with a look of contempt.

Am I inferior to my daughter?

Lin Wanfu looked confused: Where did you start with this?

In the Qing army camp at the foot of the mountain, hundreds of ragged men knelt on the ground in rows, and around them, dozens of green battalion soldiers with money rat tails were looking at them with fierce eyes. Under the strict orders of the Qing army, none of the people dared to raise their heads, and most of them were almost numb in expression, only obedient to the orders of the Qing army, and did not dare to show any dissatisfied expressions. Occasionally, someone couldn't help but dare to raise their heads and look around, and they would immediately be dragged out of the crowd by the Qing soldiers and severely beaten. Despite this, the Qing soldiers kept shuttling through the crowd, waving their swords in their hands from time to time, in order to intimidate the frightened people from moving.

"Before dawn, the chief soldier must have returned with all his success, but fortunately, these mud-legged people didn't take advantage of the chaos to escape!"

Guo Xiaowu, the general of the green battalion who stayed in the camp, stared at the Yutai Temple on the mountain with an excited face, thinking about waiting for the army to come down the mountain and pick a beautiful woman from among the captives to have a good time.

The vigilance cultivated by years of marching made Guo Xiaowu quickly turn around, and looked through the campfire in the camp, but saw more than a dozen horsemen rushing towards the camp quickly.

"The barracks are important, don't trespass!"

Guo Xiaowu shouted, but did not draw his saber, he thought that the person who came might be the banner soldiers of Xinhui City, because except for the Han army flag in the city, the green camp did not have cavalry. If the banner soldiers in the city really came to break into this big camp, he really wouldn't dare to do anything to them.

I didn't want the man who came on horseback to ignore him at all, so he just rushed towards the camp gate quickly, and approached the camp gate dozens of steps in the blink of an eye.

Well?

Guo Xiaowu was not in good consciousness, and was about to order his subordinates to be on guard, but he saw that the knight at the head suddenly threw a spear in the direction where he was!

In the sharp sound of breaking through the air, the cold killing machine struck from the left side, Guo Xiaowu was taken aback and quickly dodged, which was able to avoid the vital point in his chest, but he could no longer avoid his shoulder. There was a muffled "poof" sound, and the spearhead slammed into his right shoulder.

"Ouch!" With a miserable scream, Guo Xiaowu couldn't care about the huge pain on his shoulder, and fell down with a "plop", and shouted when he opened his mouth: "Enemy attack!" ”

When the long shout of "enemy attack" was still echoing in all directions, the cavalry rushing to the camp had already rushed to the camp gate, and it was the knight's fierce horse again, and there was a long "neighing" sound, and the hooves of the war horse stepped heavily on the wooden camp gate.

The Qing army did not prevent the "thieves" on the mountain from having the courage to attack the camp, so the camp was only simple to set up, and did not set up things such as rejecting horses, and the camp gate was even more simple. The knights who came after also rushed to the door on horseback, and after several horses, the wooden gate collapsed. At this time, the Qing soldiers in the battalion had not yet reacted to what was happening!

"Kill!"

Zhou Shixiang rode a big green horse to take the lead, and his long knife swung towards a Qing soldier holding a spear.

"Uh..."

In a heart-rending pain, the Qing soldier felt as if his chest was cracked, and instinctively reached out to pull out the long knife, but before he could touch the knife, the knife had already flown up, and then the blood in his chest gushed out, and the whole person fell down.

"Qinggou, go die!"

Zhu Er slammed the reins of the horse and stepped on a Qing soldier, only to break the bones of the Qing soldier.

The knife is chopping, the horse is rushing, and the Qing army is crying wolf.

The spear of the general Guo Xiaowu fell to the ground and did not know whether he was alive or dead, and the rest of the Qing soldiers were chaotic without command, and hundreds of people kneeling on the ground also blew up the camp. In an instant, the Qing camp was breached, and the soldiers and civilians in the camp also fell into chaos.

"Kill!"

After Zhou Shixiang led the cavalry team to make a surprise attack, the two battalions of Xiongwei and Hujie immediately killed, and thousands of soldiers rushed towards the Qing camp with shouts.

The remaining dozens of Qing troops were unable to resist the Taiping army attacking the camp, and they could not resist effectively without their command, and soon all the Qing troops in the camp were killed. The people were frightened by the Taiping army that suddenly killed, they didn't know who these soldiers in black clothes were, and they were worried that the other party would kill them, but fortunately, the other party did not kill them after controlling the Qing army camp, and the general led by him shouted loudly to the Yutai Temple on the mountain in the distance: "Brothers in the back camp, my Zhou Shixiang has brought the brothers in the front camp to save you!" ”

"Brethren from the back camp, brothers from the front camp have come to your rescue!"

Countless people shouted at the same time, and the loud sound reverberated back and forth in the valley, and even more shocked the birds and beasts all over the mountains and valleys. (To be continued)
