The liaison officer of the other party was not allowed to finish his words. Zhong Qiming's eyes turned red.

He subconsciously turned his head to look in the direction he came. Then I took another look at the towering spire of the cathedral in the center of town.

Today is March 18. March 21. That is, the day after tomorrow. It will be the official start date of the demarcation negotiations between the two sides. And the day after tomorrow morning. The officials of the headquarters are about to arrive at Miaotun. In accordance with the order given by the headquarters to the teaching brigade. It is necessary to take over and deploy the defense of Miaotun within two days. to ensure that the demarcation negotiations can be completed smoothly.

But the current problem is really a bit strict. According to the Russian liaison officer. Now in the cathedral in the heart of Miaotun Street. Nearly two thousand Tsarist mobs gathered. Nearly half of them are elderly, infirm, women and children. And. Not only the water in the church is not worried. The premeditated mob had also hoarded large quantities of rations in the church. Faced with this situation. If there is no special means of treatment. Don't say it's not easy to subdue these mobs right away. I'm afraid that if it drags on for a few months and a half, there may not be results.

"Damn. Isn't it just a church? As long as the brigade commander you give the order. Lao Tzu immediately brought someone up and leveled it! The company commander was even more annoyed.

After his avant-garde platoon entered the empty temple. Just down a straight street to the church in the center of town. Although they haven't been here before. But just take a cold look. I immediately felt the importance of this church in front of me. Just stand on top of this tall and stocky building. More than ten miles of movement around will be in full view. The officers and men of the front guard platoon relied on the buildings on both sides of the street. As I approached this church with a faint evil aura. Suddenly, two "bearded old men" hurried out of the church. The two men stumbled and ran a dozen steps. A sudden stumble. Both fell on.

Faced with this sudden situation. The officers and men of the avant-garde platoon, who were originally highly wary of this mysterious building. Forgot about the danger for a moment. Five or six Red Army soldiers rushed out of their hideouts almost simultaneously. Extend a helping hand to the "bearded old man".

It's a pity. The Red Army soldiers had not yet run to the side of the two men who were lying down. The windows of the cathedral slammed open. A rain of bullets from the surprise attack. And at the same time. The two "bearded old men" also took out their short guns from their arms.

Just in the blink of an eye. These Red Army soldiers who went up were planted at the same time.

Because of the inherent compassion and kindness of the heart. It was at the cost of several brothers being injured. Although the two "bearded old men" did not escape death in the end. But after all, I still suffered such a big loss. He was the company commander of the company in which the advance guard platoon was located. How could he bear this breath.

"Brigade commander. Give it the order. When we talk about preferential treatment, we are talking about giving preferential treatment to their civilians. And the servicemen who are willing to lay down their arms. But what are these guys? They are nothing more than armed thugs. Indistinguishable from the brutal Tsarist Russian army. What are you waiting for if you don't kill! "Yes. These bastards who don't know whether to live or die. It's just that we are all using our goodwill as bargaining capital. Don't give them some color to see. Maybe it's going to on our heads. ”

"Yes. Just beat it hard. Otherwise, we'll have to camp outside the town. Also lay out what talks about the defense. I'm going to go up and have a good look at that church. It's a castle like the Tsarist guy said. It's still a fucking coffin. ”

The company commanders of several other companies of the special service battalion also surrounded them. Babbling and shouting.

After a burst of irrepressible anger rose. Zhong Qiming still hesitated. Because. He suddenly remembered the first battle in the Jiaodong War, the battle of Hot Spring Soup. That war. Due to the omission of information provided by the pre-war command. And the director zhì spy battalion accidentally injured many of his sisters. The responsibility is not in the special battalion though. But it made him carry the psychological baggage for a long time. Now. There are also thousands of old and weak women and children in the cathedral in the middle of the street. Once the fight starts. The consequences of this ......

"What's the noise!" Thinking of this, Zhong Qiming gritted his teeth fiercely. He raised his hand and waved vigorously at the several company commanders who were jumping straight to his feet. "The three companies were deployed in accordance with the prior deployment. Take a detour to the north of town right away. Alert is released. The first and second companies surrounded and monitored the church. Remember. There is no command from me. No one is allowed to force it. ”

Although on the surface it seems to be not lacking in elegance. But Zhong Qiming, who has always dared to act. It's really a bit vague now. He had to wait for Liu Mingyuan, the brigade commander behind him, to come up.

Originally, Liu Mingyuan, who was leisurely and laughing with Li Ding and others on the horse along the way. At a glance from afar, he saw Zhong Qiming, who was waiting for him on the side of the avenue west of Miaotun Town with a few horses. That face that was never white. Snapped and put it down. No need to ask. There must be some accident here in Miaotun.

"Brigade Commander ......" saw let go of the mount. Throw off the team and run to Liu Mingyuan first. Zhong Qiming also hurried to a horse. Greeted him.

Liu Mingyuan waved his hand impatiently. interrupted what Zhong Qiming wanted to say. "I ask you. What time is it? But why are you still hanging out of town? ”

"Brigade commander. Something went wrong. Zhong Qiming's face turned red. A finger looms at a church in a house in the middle of town. "Nearly 2,000 Russian civilians were crammed into this church. And they have a lot of guns and firearms. Not so long ago, they spoke. Resolutely oppose our encroachment on their homes. As long as we don't withdraw for a day. They didn't stop resisting for a day. ”

"Resistance?" Liu Mingyuan's eyes widened. "Oh. They are trying to resist. What about you? Didn't you come here to fight? And it's all about watching the excitement? ”

"There's something special about it." Zhong Qiming shook his head gently and helplessly. "It's easy to knock down. Can the inside ...... There are also hundreds of elderly people, women and children inside. A dozen up. Inevitably......"

"I said Zhong Qiming. Is your head frozen by the snowstorm here? Liu Mingyuan sitting on horseback. Gulp smacked hard upwards. "Hundreds of young and old? They had, they dragged you in. So that you saw it with your own eyes? ”

"This ......" Zhong Qiming was stunned by Liu Mingyuan's words.

Liu Mingyuan pointed the horsewhip in his hand in the direction of the church. "I don't need this. You don't need that. What I want is a quiet temple. Captain Lee! ”

Speaking of this, Liu Mingyuan shook his head at Li Ding, who had already come not far behind him. Yelled. "Take your regiment and follow Deputy Brigade Commander Zhong up. Whatever it takes. Call me right away, what shit, the guys in the church are all disappearing in front of my eyes. ”

Zhong Qiming still hesitated again. But soon the horse's head was turned.

Liu Mingyuan saw this. immediately added a meaningful sentence to Zhong Qiming's back. "Brother Zhong. If we can't even fight such a small battle. What else can be expected in the negotiations? ”

Zhong Qiming glanced back at the brigade commander. Although no words were spoken. But he nodded solemnly.

Inside the church. of the lower chamber and all the above can be left to be a fool. It's crowded everywhere. It was filled with the crying of children. The women teased and complained. There are also helpless sighs from the old people. Of course. There is also a philosophy that God will never allow anyone to harm the innocent. to comfort the frightened people and to persevere for the sake of their homes and wealth. The chanting of the clergy on the day of the final victory.

And even more noisy than this qiē. It is armed with muskets and long knives. The young men who occupy the windows and portals.

A simple little trick. In exchange for the brilliant results of "annihilating the enemy" several people. The madness of these crazy Russian thugs became more and more carried away. In the face of the repeated demands from the outside, the people here must withdraw immediately. They don't just turn a deaf ear. Instead, they responded with more rampant gunfire and shouting. They are well aware. The backstage in Nikolaevsk will definitely use some of the most suitable ways. Reveal the "actual situation" here to the military side of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. So they have nothing to fear. There are so many innocent young and old people who accompany them here. The army of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom had nothing to do with them. They simply don't believe it. Could it be that the army of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom would still be in broad daylight? Massacres of civilians.

I really want to do it. Zhong Qiming has a way to deal with these despicable Tsarist bandits.

The cathedral was surrounded by clusters. After several "unsuccessful" skirmishes. Zhong Qiming actually ordered a truce. This time. The Russian thugs in the church celebrated with bullets. But Liu Mingyuan didn't understand Zhong Qiming's scheming. The fire is getting bigger and bigger. This Zhong Qiming. What the hell is going on? Just as Liu Mingyuan had a black face. I wondered if I should use Cao Rudian, who had just come up with Luzhi and the rear team. Replace Zhong Qiming or simply go out to solve this qiē himself. Zhong Qiming came back with a relaxed face.

"Brigade commander. Let's prepare and prepare the pot. ”

"Do you still have the heart to eat?" Liu Mingyuan snorted. Turned his head and pouted at Cao Rudian. "Lao Cao. Look at this guy Qiming. I wondered. How did you fight so many big battles. The critical moment is always the mother-in-law's. A feminine look. ”

Cao Rudian glanced at Liu Mingyuan. Look at Zhong Qiming again. He smiled. He raised his hand and pointed to the sky, which was starting to turn a little gray. "I said Brigadier Commander. Hit such a party. It's better to get dark. Hehe. Good food is not afraid of being late. I'm not in a hurry. ”

Zhong Qiming looked at Cao Rudian. I smiled heartily, too. After laughing. He looked back at the spire of the cathedral with a slightly solemn face. "Brigade commander. Let's prepare dinner for ourselves. And prepare a big meal for them. This church. How awkward I look. You just wait. It won't take long. It will never be a zài again. ”
