Chapter 21: The Longest Day (3)

The deliberately created image of iron and blood obviously worked, and the more than 500 soldiers did not even dare to haze the atmosphere, only the war horses were irritable with their hooves to scrape the sand on the ground, and their noses spewed humid heat.

Chai Dongliang was very satisfied with the reaction of the new army, and their solemnity at least expressed their respect for their own ruling power, and also showed that they had identified with themselves as the regiment commander who fell from the sky.

Chai Dongliang rode a horse and slowly walked past the front of the queue, his eyes stunned from the opposite to the end of the line, and everywhere he looked, the soldiers couldn't help but raise their chests higher. Obviously, they are not used to the eyes of their bosses, they feel that their clothes are stripped off than their eyes, and their thoughts are seen through by him!

Chai Dongliang raised his chin and scanned these young people with arrogant and critical eyes who had just grown black hairs on their mouths and pimples were still thriving on their faces.

Many people were seen by his eyes, and the stalk on the back of their necks was cold.

The new military uniform fits well, the trouser line is ironed straight, almost the radish skin can be peeled, the riding boots are bright and can shine the figure, the foreign knife is even brighter, and the beautiful and somewhat exaggerated river meandering horse makes the not very handsome Chai Dongliang stand out from the crowd, and it also gives birth to a natural killing atmosphere.

He didn't speak, just rode slowly back and forth in front of the group, and many people felt that the air was stagnant.

I don't know how long it took for the neighing of a war horse to break the deathly silence.

"You all know me, don't you? One nose and two eyes, no three heads and six arms, and it is not a King Kong of Zhang's two! It's just a scholar... But it's me, a scholar, five days ago, I took down the Wuhu Five Prefectures and Thirteen Counties with my bare hands! I've become your leader! ”

This voice was roared out with dantian qi, and the soldiers who were shocked were all shocked in their hearts!

"Tell me, what army are we?"

The soldiers were stunned for a moment, and then said in unison: "Wuhu regiment!" ”

Chai Dongliang nodded, and then shouted, "Tell me, where is your home?" ”

"Wuhu!"

Chai Dongliang nodded again, took a deep breath and said: "Now I have news to tell you, Anhui Governor Zhu Jiabao heard that Wuhu has changed banners, and he will personally lead eight battalions of new troops and fifteen battalions of patrol battalions to attack Wuhu, and the departure will be tomorrow!" ”

At this moment, everyone gasped, Wuhu can fight with no more than a thousand soldiers, and the Qing army of twenty-three battalions, even if it is a six-fold discount, there are 6,000!

"You were all soldiers of the Manchu court, what was it like after the Qing army captured the city, I believe you have also heard from the veterans in the past, right? Fight a city, seal the sword and calm the people after three days of killing, this is not bad, I believe you have heard more about the slaughter of the city, right? The Hunan army captured Nanjing, and after the massacre, the city was burned to the ground! Suzhou raised the city and surrendered, Li Hongzhang still killed and surrendered... If Wuhu City is broken, what will happen to you? What will happen to your parents, wives and children? ”

The face of each soldier changed, and he subconsciously clenched the steel gun, and the muscles on his face tensed!

"People are swords, I am fish and meat, it will definitely not be what I want! ・・・Behind us is home, relatives! I will never put my life in the hands of others! I will not get out of the way and hand over the lives of my parents, wives and children to the enemy! I will never let anyone threaten my home! ”

The originally neat breathing on the field became cramped and messy, and these few words obviously pierced everyone's hearts deeply!

These people are all children of Wuhu, and they live here with their parents and relatives, and if Wuhu is captured by the Qing army, they can't imagine the consequences!

Chai Dongliang raised his chin proudly, sat straight on horseback, pointed at the soldiers with the tip of his knife, and shouted: "You answer me, if someone points a knife at your relatives, what will you do?" ”

Everyone's backs were drenched in cold sweat, and they were stunned all of a sudden!

Chai Dongliang lifted a breath of dantian qi and shouted with all his might: "Answer me!" ”

"Kill!"

"Fight to the death!"

"Slaughtered Zhu Jiabao raised by a son of a bitch!"

"Live and die with Wuhu!"

The heart-rending roars of more than 500 soldiers echoed in the large school field, everyone's voice was shouted from the chest, the steel guns and war knives in their hands were also subconsciously clenched to death, and everyone's knuckles were white from blood loss due to excessive force.

After a while, Chai Dongliang waved his blade and signaled silence, but his body was still standing straight on horseback!

"That's what you see?" Chai Dongliang's words were full of indifferent criticism and contempt.

"・I want you to firmly remember・・The Wuhu regiment will never tolerate the enemy's intimidation at the doorstep, so that our parents, wives and children will be threatened at the slightest bit...

Running 300 miles in one night? Is it possible to succeed in attacking Anqing, which is heavily defended? The soldiers of the New Army are a little dazed?

Chai Dongliang sneered disdainfully: "Are you afraid?" With my bare hands, with two duck eggs wrapped in tin foil, I was able to seize Wuhu, which was defended by your two battalions of new troops and three battalions of patrol battalions... Now, you have knives and guns, war horses and cannons? Don't you have the courage to attack Anqing?

That's all I have to say, if your parents are killed by the Qing army, you don't care, I will send the passage fee to let you go, if your wife and sisters are ruined by the Qing army, you don't care, I will send the passage fee to let you go, if the house is burned by the Qing army, you don't care, I will also send the passage fee to let you go... My Wuhu regiment doesn't want a soft egg without bones and eggs, a eunuch... ”

This kind of condemnation with obvious contempt made the soldiers of the new army unbearable, they are all soldiers of Wuhu, and it is almost an instinct for them to defend their relatives and homeland!

More than 500 people immediately stood up, and these people were all originally prepared to rebel against the Qing Dynasty, and most of them had fair and studentlike faces. It is this scholarly spirit that makes them less sleek and sleek by life, and they seem to be hotter and more stupid!

Immediately after that, more than 200 people stepped forward, each with a sad look on their faces, and there were more than 100 people left, who looked left and right, hesitated for a moment, and then took three steps forward!

Chai Dongliang was a little disappointed, these sturdy people picked out from the patrol camp still seemed hesitant to resist the imperial court. These people are accustomed to being submissive, their surnames are more numb, and they are more fortunate in life.

And every time a disaster comes, such people suffer the most, but they eventually take this step!

What this old China needs most is these numb people to take this step forward!

"Behind is Wuhu, is the homeland, one step forward, my dead relatives live, one step back, I live and my relatives die? Which one do you choose? Without waiting for the soldiers to answer, Chai Dongliang lost no time in drawing his sword and prancing on his horse, and repeatedly galloped and shouted in front of the queue: "Fight for your homeland!" ”

"Fight for your homeland!"

Five hundred voices converged into one voice, and the sound shook nine heavens!

After everyone's blood was boiling, Chai Dongliang signaled to be quiet, and then put a cold and arrogant smile on his face again, and asked like a cannon: "Do you think this is enough?" Have your guns been wiped clean? Have your bullets been checked? Have your horses' hooves been trimmed? Have your swords been sharpened? Are your boots polished? Are your axles oiled? ”

The new army was like being poured a scoop of cold water on the head, and it was stupid for a while.

"Quartermaster, how many horses are there in the horse artillery battalion, and how many horses are there pulling carts? How many gun carriages are hanging? Chai Dongliang suddenly asked.

"Report to the regiment commander, there are thirty war horses, fourteen sick ones, two hundred and sixteen usable horses, fifty-eight horses, and fifteen gun carriages!"

The quartermaster's answer made Chai Dongliang a little satisfied, and he nodded and said, "Two hundred and sixteen horses?" One person and two horses, exactly one hundred and eight people! ”

Chai Dongliang's face that had been deliberately stretched appeared with a smile, and he said loudly: "Three years ago, Xiong Weigen led the horse artillery battalion to revolt, and was bloodily suppressed by the governor Zhu family, how many righteous soldiers spilled the blood of Anqing・・・・・ all of them, listen to my orders!" The infantry battalion stayed in Wuhu, and one hundred and eight warriors who dared to die were selected from the horse artillery battalion, followed by me, the scholar regiment leader, Ma Ta Anqing, and the sword commander! ”

"Ma Ta Anqing, sword slashing governor!"

The blood of the soldiers of the horse artillery battalion boiled again, and the raindrops the size of beans falling from the sky could hardly be felt!

"Disbanded now, give you half an hour to eat, check your weapons and equipment, and after half an hour, one hundred and eight warriors, join me in the provincial capital!"

"Ma Ta Anqing, sword slashing governor!"

Looking at these soldiers whose faces were flushed with blood and passion, Master Gao Ming couldn't help but secretly shake his head in his heart: "What a group of stupid boys!" I'm really fooled, follow this half-baked person who uses salted duck eggs to pretend to be bombs to go to the soup! ”

Although I thought so in my heart, the tears of indisputability still swirled down my eyes, and this person who had experienced too much wind and rain and claimed to be hard-hearted was also agitated at a certain moment.

This eloquence and drum power, I'm afraid that only Sun Wen of the Alliance can match it in the four seas, right?

At this moment, Gao Ming even had the idea of hoping that Chai Dongliang would die in Anqing, he covered his face with his sleeve and quietly wiped it off, and sighed secretly: "If Chai Dongliang can pass this hurdle in danger, I don't know how many stupid boys will be incited to lose their lives in the future..." ”

````

Ask for a ticket, the chasing soldiers are tight!

In addition, it is impossible to update the new book too quickly, otherwise it will be off the list in advance, so don't throw away the reminder of 12,000 or 9,000, you won't feel uncomfortable when you see it! Six thousand is about the same!

After it is put on the shelves, it will be 12,000 more urgently!

Thank you to Brother Wang Xiao, a book friend who is rewarding every day!

When, do we also have an alliance leader?
