Chapter 913: Living Sacrifice

Tibetans are also nomadic tribes, although the ability to ride and shoot is not as good as the Mongolian cavalry, but it is not bad, after this sight, the Qing army is in hot pursuit, since they are unwilling to sit still, they have opened their bows and arrows to shoot back, trying to deter the pursuit of the Qing army, but unfortunately the wish is good, but the reality is cruel, the Qing army did not intend to meet with Bagongga and others at all, so they rode their horses and hung on the distance of more than 60 steps after the rout, just outside the range of the riding bow, no matter how a group of Tibetan soldiers bent the bow and shot indiscriminately, it was difficult for the Qing army to do anythingOn the contrary, the cavalry guns in the hands of the Qing army fired from time to time, just like target training, shooting the Tibetan soldiers in front of them one by one under their horses.

"Okay, stop playing, kill that old boy's horse to Lao Tzu!"

After a chase battle, the Tibetan soldiers who fled frantically were all shot and killed on the spot, leaving only Bagongga alone who was still desperately beating horses and fleeing, as soon as he saw this, He Rong obviously did not plan to continue such a cat and mouse game, he laughed fiercely, raised his hand, and gave an order in a loud voice.

"Bah, Bah, Bah......"

The Qing soldiers could actually shoot Bagongga off the horse a long time ago, the reason why they were not in a hurry to do it, but they were just teasing him, just to appreciate Bagongga's embarrassment, and now, since He Rong has given the order, the cavalry has not been "noisy" anymore, they have raised their riding guns, aiming at the war horse under Bagongga's crotch is a random shot, and instantly beat the unlucky war horse into a sieve.

"I surrender, I surrender ......"

The galloping war horse wailed and fell to the ground, even if the unprepared Bagonggadang was thrown out by inertia, and even turned a few heels on the grass, and his face was so painful that his nose and tears were all on his face, but he didn't give up, jumped up, and stumbled forward, but how could the speed of the two legs be compared with the war horse under the crotch of the Qing army, only a few steps away, and he was surrounded by the Qing soldiers, facing the fierce and vicious Qing soldiers, Bagongga was not the slightest resistance, and his legs and feet were weak, The man fell to his knees and shouted at the top of his voice.

"Give this bastard back to Lao Tzu!"

He Rong glanced at Bagongga contemptuously, spit on the ground in disgust, and drank his throat with disdain......

"Report, general, the prince is here, and it is less than two miles away from my camp."

After successfully taking Xining City, Yue Zhongqi was not in a hurry to launch an offensive against the rest of the rebellious Tibetan tribes, but first stationed in Xining City, there was nothing else, under the continuous forced march and repeated battles, although the morale of the Qing army was greatly boosted because of the successive battles, but the men and horses were already tired, and it was not suitable for them to fight urgently, and moreover, Yue Zhongqi still had a concern, that is, the disposal of the Outer Xie Ersu Department, although Hongqing already had a secret order, but after all, it was a major event involving the life and death of thousands of people, Yue Zhongqi couldn't help but have scruples, did not dare to make such a ruthless move easily, but sent a secret letter with Feiying, asking Hongqing who was near Xunhua to ask for instructions, but he never thought that only one day later, a sentry came to report, saying that Hongqing had arrived, which really surprised Yue Zhongqi, and he didn't even care about asking carefully, so he hurriedly ordered the generals above the entire army camp to wait at the camp gate.

"The last general will wait to see the prince!"

Although the land of two miles is not short, but for the galloping war horse, it is just a moment of effort, just when Yue Zhongqi and the others have just assembled outside the camp for a short time, Hongqing has already led more than a thousand guards to ride horses to the front, as soon as they saw this, Yue Zhongqi and others did not dare to have the slightest slackness, and they all rushed forward, and they all bowed together.

"Excuse me, just settle down."

In just ten days, several armies have progressed smoothly, the rebel tribes in the west and south of Qinghai have been wiped out, and the pursuit army composed of the first cavalry division and the first division of the second army has also entered the Qaidam Basin, and successively defeated Lobzang Danjin several desperate counterattacks, forcing Lobzang Danjin to be unable to stabilize his position, and had to lead more than a thousand remnants of the army to go straight to the Dzungar Khanate, at most there is another three or two days of effort, the Qing army can stabilize the situation in Qaidam, so as to achieve the strategic goal of quickly pacifying Qinghai, Because of this, Hongqing's mood is quite good, and her voice is extremely warm.

"Thank you, Lord Longen!"

Hearing Hongqing's shout, thanking is the proper meaning of the question, and the generals dare not be rude.

"Lift it up!"

As soon as the generals got up, Hongqing had already raised his hand and shouted, and immediately two guards carried a large box, walked out from behind, rested on the ground, lifted the lid, and revealed the things inside, it was half a box of silver tickets and half a box of silver ingots, it seemed, not to mention tens of thousands of taels, even the generals were dumbfounded.

"If you wait for the North Road to fight well, you should be rewarded, and the court will not lose the meritorious ministers, Dongmei, here 180,000 taels of silver is what you deserve, and you will go down according to the merits, and now this king should have a good drink with the soldiers of the three armies."

Seeing that all the generals were stunned on the spot, Hongqing couldn't help laughing, and gave a reward order with great pride, which immediately made all the soldiers and soldiers thunderous with joy.

"The prince is so rewarded, the last general will be terrified."

Yue Zhongqi knew Hongqing's heroism early on, but he didn't expect that there would be so many rewards, he was excited, but he couldn't help but be a little apprehensive, no side, although the battle was very easy, but his butt was not wiped clean - Hongqing had already given a secret order, but Yue Zhongqi still didn't dare to do anything to exterminate the clan, and he couldn't help but worry that Hongqing would be dissatisfied in his heart.

"There are many people who have been terrified of this in exchange for their lives, not to mention this, this king is here today, in addition to having a good drink with his brothers, there is another important thing to do, where are those rebellious magnates of the Sersu tribe who have been captured now?"

Hongqing is a shrewd individual, and he knew what Yue Zhongqi was worried about at a glance, but he didn't care much, waved his hand, signaled that Yue Zhongqi didn't have to be polite, and then went straight to the point.

"Back to the prince's words, all the rebellious magnates and their families of more than 2,400 people are imprisoned in Xining City, the last general, the last general ......"

Hearing Hongqing really ask about the secret order, Yue Zhongqi's heart sank, but he didn't dare not answer, so he could only explain a few words hard, but the more he said, the more empty his heart became, and he couldn't say anything later.

"Well, the three heroes of generosity and righteousness such as Zhao Qinshan mentioned in the war report are now buried?"

Hongqing didn't care about Yue Zhongqi's disobedience, nor did he investigate his behavior of disobeying the secret order, but just quietly whispered, and then changed the topic.

"Wang Ye Mingjian, time is in a hurry, although Zhao Lao and others have been buried, but it is too late to build a tomb, so they are still stopped in the Guandi Temple in the city for the people in the city to worship."

Seeing that Hongqing didn't seem to be pursuing his own mistakes, Yue Zhongqi's tense heartstrings were a little looser, but Wu Zi didn't dare to take it lightly, and hurriedly and cautiously explained.

"Well, pass on the king's order, the three armies will gather in the Guandi Temple, and all the rebellious magnates and their families will be beheaded in front of the temple, and the king will personally sacrifice the three heroes!"

Hongqing came to Xining, rewarding the three armies is just a incidental thing, what is really to do is the matter of living sacrifice, what is to make a rule based on this, use bloody facts to warn the latecomers, and deter the rest of the rebellious Tibetan tribes is secondary, and more importantly, it is to set an uncompromising precedent for future generations to deal with possible terrorist incidents, even if this move may attract countless scoldings, or even is very likely to be criticized by the people of the DPRK and China, Hongqing does not hesitate.

"Ah, this ......, chick!"

As soon as he heard Hongqing's order, Yue Zhongqi couldn't help but be startled, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and he was about to say something, but when he saw Hongqing's cold eyes swept over, he didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly bowed down to answer the promise.

"Into town!"

The matter was settled, Hongqing didn't talk much anymore, and he didn't plan to go into the camp to rest, as soon as he turned over, he got on horseback, waved his hand proudly, and gave an order, and then didn't care how Yue Zhongqi and the others reacted, and led his nearly a thousand guards to gallop to Xining City not far away.

"Division commander, more than 2,000 people, really killed like this?"

"Yes, division commander, will it be ...... to kill so many people in one go?"

"Commander, the prince ...... him"

……

Hongqing walked in a chic manner, but the generals of the first division were stunned on the spot, and when Hongqing had already led his troops to go far, he came to his senses, and asked questions all over Yue Zhongqi, obviously, the generals were quite puzzled by Hongqing's order, and it was not surprising that after Yue Zhongqi received the secret order, in addition to communicating with the commander of the first division and Min, he had never revealed it to the generals below, and the big guys were not prepared at all.

"Where did you get so much nonsense, all of them were given to Lao Tzu to their respective departments, and they all gathered their men and horses, and hurried into the city!"

Yue Zhongqi guessed the intention behind Hongqing's actions, but at this moment, he didn't want to explain too much, and it was really not the turn of the generals to mix up with such major matters related to national policy, it was he Yue Zhongqi himself, and he didn't have the qualifications to say anything, even so, pretending to be confused had become Yue Zhongqi's only choice, and he would not explain the reason to the generals at this time, but made a straight face, and scolded him angrily.

"Wow!"

Seeing that Yue Zhongqi's voice was wrong, the generals didn't dare to say any more, so they hurriedly agreed to the promise, returned to their headquarters, and after reorganizing the soldiers and horses, they hurried to Xining City......
