Chapter 17: The Mountain Sculpture (4)
Zheng Chenggong walked into the cottage and observed the internal structure of the cottage carefully.
The more you go, the more thrilling it becomes, this cottage structure is really comprehensive.
Zheng Chenggong thought that this place was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Pantuo Town was the main transportation route between Zhangpu County and Yunxiao County, so if the troops were left here, it would be a good stronghold.
Going north can threaten Zhangzhou, so that if you attack other cities in the future, Zhangzhou will not dare to send troops to rescue. If we go south, we can collect grain on the spot and solve the problem of grain and grass for part of our army.
Zheng Chenggong was thinking about who to keep here.
An archer in the Marine Corps picked up a musket that was very different from the one commonly used by the Ming Dynasty, so he immediately presented it to the general Zheng Chenggong.
Zheng Chenggong looked at it, his eyes were straight, pistol!
Could it be that the Ming Dynasty in this era has this thing, Zheng Chenggong picked it up and looked at it carefully.
Oh no, it's the predecessor of the pistol, the flintlock pistol.
It's just that the flintlock pistol didn't appear in the 19th century during the ** war, how come it is now in the 17th century.
This is the consequence of not knowing history, Zheng Chenggong watched too many movies when he was a child, so he took it for granted that flintlock pistols only appeared in the 19th century.
In fact, at the beginning of the 16th century, the German watchmaker Kiefers invented the revolver musket, and in the middle of the 16th century, in 1547, the Frenchman Mahan, who was born in a family of gunsmiths, locksmiths and watchmakers, improved on the basis of the revolver musket, removed the clockwork steel wheel, clamped a flint on the jaws of the hammer, and provided a blow anvil on the side of the fire hole. The firing process is greatly simplified, the firing rate and shooting accuracy are improved, it is easy to use, and the cost is low, which facilitates mass production.
In the mid-17th century, many European armies were generally equipped with flintlock pistols, which lasted for more than 200 years until 1848.
Even in 1635, the Ming Dynasty firearms researcher Bi Maokang made a flintlock pistol.
Its construction and performance are not much different from the previous birds, mainly with an improved ignition device.
It was only due to various factors that the flintlock pistol he made was finally lost.
Looking at the flintlock pistol in front of him, Zheng Chenggong wanted to slap himself.
Buddy is Jue's bird system, the fire system and the like are too troublesome, and the rate of fire can't keep up, so I didn't think about forming a large-scale musket town, but I just thought about finding someone to develop this flintlock pistol to fight against the Eight Banners cavalry when I have a territory. But I didn't expect that there would be flintlock pistols in this era. It's all miserable for the movies when I was a child.
At this time, Zheng Chenggong felt that he should send people to Guangzhou, Macao and other places to collect them to see if there was any such flintlock pistol, as long as he had money, he must buy it.
When Zheng Chenggong took the flintlock pistol and examined it carefully, the Zheng family's army, who had not encountered any obstacles in attacking the gate of the cottage, was blocked in front of a courtyard gate.
The gate of this courtyard was tightly closed, and hundreds of people brought stools, chairs, etc., stepped on it, and were lying on the stone wall with bows and arrows and fire to shoot at Zheng Jiajun.
The vanguard of the Marines did not notice it for a while, so they shot and wounded a few of them, and the later Marines saw this situation, and hurriedly pulled the wounded away, defended them on the spot, and then sent people to the rear to give an order to quickly transport the artillery over, ready to blast open the stone wall of this courtyard.
Zheng Chenggong, who was staying near the gate of the cottage, heard the news and hurried over.
For a while, he only cared about the cottage and the flintlock gun, and Zheng Chenggong forgot the ultimate goal of attacking this cottage.
The courtyard that the other party would defend is the place where Wang Fugui placed his valuables, and there is no other reason to explain.
Zheng Cheng hurriedly rushed over because he was afraid that the Marines would blow up the courtyard as soon as possible, and where would Lao Tzu find your military salary at that time.
Zheng Chenggong ordered the Marines not to attack first, but to surround the courtyard so that no one was allowed to slip away.
Now that I have my own money and food in it, I can still rely on this bunch of small people.
For the sake of insurance, Zheng Chenggong called the loud-voiced soldier who was specially responsible for shouting, and asked him to say according to his own words: "Listen to the people inside, we belong to the Zheng family." You're already surrounded, lay down your arms and surrender, or you'll all be shot. ”
When Zheng Chenggong asked people to shout, Wang Fugui died, at the hands of a person he would never have imagined.
Wang Fugui hurried to the stone wall to observe the enemy, and even took away a few doglegs guarding the woman.
After Wang Fugui left, the woman struggled to get up and untied the rope that bound her daughter Dong'er.
As soon as Dong'er was untied, she wanted to hide in her mother's arms in horror.
But the woman pushed her daughter away, Dong'er was stunned for a while, she didn't understand why her mother, who had always cherished her, pushed her away, and her eyes were full of tears.
The woman tugged at her torn clothes tightly, not daring to look at her daughter, and whispered, "Let's go, take advantage of the chaos now." ”
When Dong'er heard her mother shouting to her to leave, she hurriedly stopped her tears, stepped forward to take her mother's hand, and said, "Mom, while that villain is not there, let's go together!" ”
But the woman waved her daughter's hand away, and shouted at her, "Go, I told you to go, did you hear it?" ”
With that, the woman pushed Dong'er out.
When Dong'er kicked her mother out, she cried and desperately held her hand, hoping that her mother would follow her and escape.
"Run away and go to your grandfather's house, don't go back to Pantuo Town."
"Mom..."
Seeing that her daughter still refused to leave, the woman slapped her like crazy and shouted, "If you don't leave, I will die in front of you." Let's go."
After being slapped heavily by her mother, Dong'er froze for a while, hid her face and ran away crying.
The woman who had been holding back the tears finally couldn't stop crying at this time, crying and saying, "Dong'er, I'm no longer worthy of being your mother." “
After Dong'er was slapped by her mother, she ran away crying.
It's just her first time coming, and the courtyard is very large, so Dong'er is lost.
While walking around the courtyard, Wang Fugui ran in from outside and knocked Dong'er to the ground. Seeing that someone was in the way, the anxious Wang Fugui didn't care who it was, so he kicked it over and said, "Good dog doesn't get in the way, get out of the way." “
After speaking, Wang Fugui continued to run towards the inner hall.
Dong'er was kicked in the middle, holding her stomach and clenching like a shrimp.
It was not easy to regain her breath, Dong'er struggled to stand up, looking at what Wang Fugui had left, her eyes flashing with coldness.
She ran in that direction as well.
When passing through the lobby, Dong'er was frightened by the scene in front of her, she stopped, tears flowed again, crying, "Mom! “
The woman was dead, and after Dong'er left, she threw a vase of furnishings in the lobby on the ground and smashed it.
Picking up one of the shards, she severed the major artery in her wrist. Before she died, the woman wrote on the ground with her own blood: "Wang Fugui, I won't let you go if I am a ghost!" “
Dong'er ran and shook her mother desperately, but she could never wake up.
The blood on her mother's body, the blood flowing on the ground, stained Dong'er's body.
For a long time, Dong'er, who was covered in blood, walked towards Wang Fugui's room in a daze, holding a large piece of her mother's suicide in her hand.
When Wang Fugui only looked down to select gold and silverware, Dong'er, who witnessed his mother being insulted by this man, held the sharp piece of the fragment in his hand and plunged it into his neck fiercely, and then opened his mouth to bite the other side of Wang Fugui's neck.
In an instant, a large amount of blood burst out from Wang Fugui's neck.
Wang Fugui struggled desperately, covering his neck tightly with one hand, and pulling Dong'er's hair desperately with the other, trying to pull her down.
The tooth was broken, and Dong'er refused to let go. The fragments were deeply rooted in the palm of his hand, and Dong'er refused to let go.
Under Wang Fugui's desperate struggle, the pulling of the fragments not only severed his major arteries, but also cut his vocal cords.
Wang Fugui couldn't even shout for help, he could only cover his neck tightly with both hands, but blood kept bursting out from between his fingers.
One minute is a short 60 seconds. Wang Fugui, who was full of evil, died because of heavy bleeding, on a fragment in the hands of a nine-year-old girl.
And when Wang Fugui was dying, the Wang family team he relied on was also dying.
The Zhuang Guardian Team originally wanted to rely on Shibi to resist the Zheng Jiajun for a while, and then escape when Wang Fugui collected gold and silver.
can think that Wang Fugui took so long, and when Zheng Chenggong sent troops to surround this courtyard, and sent someone to send the two lightest tiger squat cannons over first, he hadn't packed it yet.
The captain of the Zhuang protection team was Wang Fugui's younger brother Wang Furong, and when he saw that his brother had not returned, he sent a few people to the inner courtyard to urge Wang Fugui and ask him to pack up and leave quickly.
When the members of the Wang family's escort team ran into the house, they saw that Wang Fugui was dead on the ground, and Dong'er was sitting next to him in a daze, with a piece of minced meat at the corner of his mouth. Seeing that someone had come in, it was still a few uncles he knew, Dong'er smiled at them, broke a few teeth, and the bloody smile made these members of the Wang family's escort have a chill surging from the bottom of their hearts.
One of them couldn't stand it anymore, and just when he was about to raise his musket to kill Dong'er, he was pressed down by the eldest of the guards and said, "What are you doing?" ”
"Patriarch Wang killed Dong'er!"
"You know, she's Dong'er! Dong'er also wants to kill Wang Fugui, don't you know. What did Wang Fugui do to the daughter-in-law of the Agen family, don't tell me, you don't know? Damn, it's not a person, back then, Agen's family was killed by those homeless people just to protect Wang Fugui, but I didn't expect that even her daughter-in-law was harmed today, what are you helping him do? “
"But ......"
"But what, everyone is dead, and there is Zheng Jiajun outside. The name of the country's surname, you haven't heard of it. If we resist stubbornly, we will all die. Why bother to compensate all our Wang family for the sake of a dead man. “
"Then, Brother Wang, what do you say?"
"Surrender, what else can I do?"
"Okay, we'll all listen to Brother Wang."
