Chapter 232: Xiucheng Perseverance

A long iron cone was handed over by the soldier, the iron cone shining with cold light was held tightly in Zeng Guoquan's hand, he stared at Li Xiucheng, and then stared at the tip of the iron cone in his hand,

Under the grasp of the soldiers of the Hunan army, the prince of the Taiping Army, who was very embarrassed by the land preparation, shook his head with all his might, made himself a little more comfortable, looked at the surrounding scene, and said in a deep voice: "Zeng Guoquan, you won." ”

"Hmph, I won, I won, of course I won." Zeng Guoquan walked forward as he spoke, and suddenly, he stabbed the sharp iron cone into Li Xiucheng's thigh.

Li Xiucheng was shocked, but he didn't react, but a smile bloomed on his face: "Why bother." ”

"Why bother." Zeng Guoquan twisted the iron cone in Li Xiucheng's leg, pierced it further, and then pulled it out: "How are you, are you comfortable." ”

"Hmph, the world is just a mortal body, and the so-called joy and pain of life and death are just momentary ears." Li Xiucheng said in a wave: "As a prisoner, I have nothing to say. ”

"Hmph, you bastard, if you were willing to surrender earlier, Lao Tzu might forgive you, but you are a forgotten bastard, stubbornly defending Nanjing, how many elite soldiers and fierce generals I have lost, how can Lao Tzu forgive you." As he spoke, Zeng Guoquan used the iron awl to stab and pull out of Li Xiucheng's body over and over again.

Li Xiucheng's clothes are very thin, and it is estimated that they have been stripped of their coats by the Hunan soldiers, just like this, Zeng Guoquan was still not happy, and used a knife to cut Li Xiucheng's clothes and robes to pieces.

"Lao Jiu, if you want to kill, you will kill, why bother so much." Li Xiucheng smiled, still calm,

Zeng Guoquan is the ninth in rank, and the world calls him the nine handsome, even the Taiping Army knows it.

"Troublesome, hmph, there are more troublesome things, such as cutting 3,600 knives on you, hehe." Zeng Guoquan said cruelly,

Li Xiucheng was controlled and couldn't express himself well, but he was still able to say: "Lao Jiu, this king has long been prepared for this, and he has to make changes, so why bother to say more." ”

"Say more, hum, I've been preparing for this for a long time, I'm afraid not, who is not greedy for life, I'm afraid you want to run, but you can't run away from the officers and soldiers of the commander." Zeng Guoquan said viciously,

"That's how it should be." Li Xiucheng explained: "The situation in Tianjing is getting worse day by day, this king knows that he will be defeated, we rushed out of the city, but the young king's war horse was injured and could not work, this king gave his war horse to him, so this king can not escape, and again, this king is hiding somewhere, he has nothing to do, only came out to look for food, and was earned by the traitors, it is indeed the destiny of heaven, this king has no gossip to talk about, but this king is definitely not afraid of your steel knife." ”

"You're not afraid, okay, I'll tell you not to be afraid." Zeng Guoquan frantically poked and stabbed his iron awl on Li Xiucheng's ** body, and suddenly, blood was dripping and splashing everywhere.

Although they are all veterans of a hundred battles, there are still Hunan officers and soldiers who can't bear it, and some people shake their heads, saying that this approach is too ruffian, and it is really incommensurate with a national general like Zeng Guoquan.

After poking Li Xiucheng's body into countless blood holes, Zeng Guoquan asked viciously: "If you are not convinced, you say, are you afraid, say." ”

Li Xiucheng trembled all over, and the severe pain made him uncontrollable, but he still smiled: "Lao Jiu, this king has never been afraid of any enemy, this king is only afraid of the sky, only afraid of the king, only afraid of the people, never afraid of the most vicious people, hum." ”

Zeng Guoquan was angry, panting like a cow, looked at Li Xiucheng, pointed at his face with his finger, suddenly went up fiercely, and slapped it a few times, "I let you not be afraid, I will make your mouth hard." ”

A general stepped forward and pulled him away: "Dashuai, why bother to be like a dying person." ”

"Liu Songshan, don't pull me." Zeng Guoquan reprimanded Liu Songshan fiercely, and he also felt that he was really boring, but the anger in his chest really couldn't be vented, he was stunned for a while, he sat back in the chair, and looked at the soldier coldly: "Since General Li Xiucheng said that he is not afraid of death, he is not afraid of anything, okay, then good, today, let's try it, in the end, are you afraid or not." ”

Under Zeng Guoquan's order, two soldiers stepped forward and used sharp knives to cut off Li Xiucheng's thighs, arms, and even the flesh on his chest little by little, cutting more than 20 knives in a row, and the top was covered with blood.

"Afraid or not."

"Don't be afraid."

"Cut again."

The blade was wandering on Li Xiucheng's body, and the soldiers of the Hunan army were doing this very skillfully, it can be seen that they had done a lot of similar things, without any fear, and even very proud and appreciative, the soldiers continued to cut Li Xiucheng's body,

"Nine Marshals." Several generals stepped forward and dragged Zeng Guoquan's arm: "Jiu Shuai is angry, let's kill him, how can I explain to Zeng Butang." ”

Zeng Butang, that is, Zeng Guofan,

Zeng Guoquan thought about it again, and ordered the soldiers to stop and escort Li Xiucheng down: "Li thief, think about it, if you can figure it out and surrender to our court, Ben Shuai can still exempt you from the death penalty, hmph, look at you just now, you are also a hero." ”

Someone ripped off a shabby piece of clothing and draped it on Li Xiucheng's body, Li Xiucheng was shocked, and let out a short and desolate groan,

"Hmph, don't be afraid of death, Lao Tzu told you that life is better than death." Seeing Li Xiucheng being dragged away, Zeng Guoquan was still angry,

"Jiu Shuai, didn't Zeng Butang confess, as long as Li Xiucheng and others are arrested, they must be handed over to him to deal with, Lord Butang is afraid that you will kill this guy."

"I really want to kill him, in order to break through this city......" Zeng Guoquan suddenly shouted, ordered Li Xiucheng to be escorted back again, stared at him and asked: "Where did the young rebel king run, said, and also, is Hong Xiuquan dead in the end, is the city well-dressed and deceitful." ”

Li Xiucheng looked at him: "The King of Heaven has indeed passed away and his soul has returned to Heaven, as for the others, this King doesn't want to talk about it." When he said this, he frowned because of the pain of the wound,

"Hmph, do you want to taste the taste of cut meat alive again?" Zeng Guoquan said viciously,

"Zeng Jiu, if you want to kill, you will kill, if you want to kill, if you want to kill, since this king has fallen into your hands, you can only do whatever you want, but you also have to think about it, the reincarnation of human voices, although you kill me in this life, I may not be able to kill you in the next life, you also have to know retribution." Li Xiucheng said righteously,

"You." Zeng Guoquan burst out again,

At this moment, a soldier suddenly came in: "Commander, the city is suddenly in chaos, and there is the sound of cannons by the river." ”

"Cannon." Several generals of the Hunan army hesitated, and seemed to really have an impression, but they didn't pay too much attention.

"Moreover, there was a cracking sound in the city just now, maybe it was the long-haired remnants who came in."

Zeng Guoquan's eyes rolled, and he suddenly exclaimed: "Yes, maybe these thieves are here to rescue the rebel king Li Xiucheng." ”

The generals of the Hunan army who were awakened all stood up and drew their sabers from their waists: "Go, take a look." ”

Dozens of officers and soldiers, under the leadership of Zeng Guoquan, flocked out,

At this time, Luo Yang had already led the officers and soldiers to the front of the Heavenly King's Mansion, and just happened to find a large group of enemies coming out, "Up." ”

Without hesitation, the Chinese officers and soldiers lit several grenades and threw them,

The grenade with Mars, flashing with a beautiful light in the air, dim and lovely, fleeting brilliance, like a dream, the night of Nanjing is beautiful, but also cool, the city of Nanjing in early February, in the evening, the oblique moon bends, in the western sky, faint almost invisible,

The grenade that rose into the air fell on the heads of the Qing army without any suspense,
