Chapter 710: Heavenly Soldiers Save the Dead

The soldiers of the rebels were stabbed sideways, and suddenly there was no drunkenness in their eyes, and they stared at the captives with bad intentions, occasionally turning their eyes to look at the woman, and chuckling in their throats.

The leader gently touched the woman's round knee. He suddenly couldn't help it, tore off the woman's petticoat fiercely, and pounced desperately......

At this moment, there was a loud "bang", and half of the door latch was shattered and flew straight out, and there was a fire in the dark room.

Everything fell silent after the loud bang. One leader held the woman tightly in his arms, the other pulled out the long knife at his waist, and the rebel soldiers formed a vigilant line. The man who came held the torch high above the top, and people couldn't see his face clearly, but felt that the eyes reflected a little fire and swept around, and everyone felt that they wanted to take a step back.

It was a chilling pair of eyes.

"Who?" The leader who drew his sword lined up his men and stepped forward.

His last word was almost swallowed back in fright. Behind the comer, a bull-like figure suddenly flashed, ripped him all over like a chicken, took off his saber with one hand, and stabbed it directly into his mouth by the way.

Seeing the bloody tip of the knife sticking out from the back of the leader's head, the Kim captives all screamed in fright.

"Blind your dog's eyes!" The bull-like warrior threw the corpse down, dodged to protect his master, and waved his big hand violently. A group of sergeants hurried into the stable, dozens of torches illuminated the surroundings, and dozens of rifles with bayonets on them also formed a line, facing the soldiers of the rebellious army in a cold light.

The two sides were evenly matched, and after a short confrontation, the person who came shouted in a low voice: "Take it!" ”

A group of sergeants later shouted in unison and stepped forward side by side with rifles in hand. The soldiers of the rebels who came first were not straw bales, and they were cramped around the stable, but their formation was not chaotic at all. They shouted, raised their knives, and rushed forward in unison.

"Cut it all down for me!" The leader of the rebel soldiers saw the corpse of his companion rolling to the side, already red-eyed, ignoring the rifle in the other's hand.

However, the outcome of the engagement was completely unexpected. The rifle-wielding sergeants did not shoot, but rushed to them. They all stabbed with bayonets, and the soldiers of the rebels stabbed their bayonets before they could cut them down, and they were completely unable to resist the brutal stabbing. The moment their bodies were exposed as they swung their swords, the bayonet stabbed mercilessly, and in the splattering of blood, the tall warrior swung his saber and slashed, and the severed arm and stump fell on the straw, and the formation of the rebel soldiers completely collapsed. The rebel soldiers, who had been stabbed and had not been injured to the point of being critically injured, had just about to get up. The sabers were already slashed at their necks, and several of them rushed forward with their blood, and the tall warrior immediately cut off their heads with a clean sword.

However, in the blink of an eye, not a single shot was fired, and the experienced bayonet sergeants crushed the rebel soldiers without a single injury. And the short, sturdy figure had already strode close in on the remaining leader.

"You...... Don't come here! The leader's hand trembled, and the long knife moved up and down the woman's neck. The other party's stride did not hesitate at all, and the leader could only lead the woman to retreat.

"Don't come here!" The leader roared in horror, his back already clinging to the wall.

"Got his knife down. Don't hurt the hostages. The visitor paused and said in a deep voice.

I heard that what the other party said turned out to be the official language of Qianguo. The leader was taken aback, and in a moment of astonishment, the tall warrior grabbed his wrist and snatched the long knife away, followed by a palm pull, and the leader rolled to the side.

"Do you know who we are? Don't you want to die? He got up from the ground and yelled. A mouthful of blood fell with teeth.

"Do you know who I am?" The leader of the man slowly lowered the torch held high, so that the face as sharp as a knife was exposed to the firelight, and his eyes were sunken under the brow bone, and he looked about twenty-two or three years old.

The leader saw the dazzling light of the golden dragon badge on the blue military uniform on the other party's body, and his heart instantly became cold.

"Yes...... Heavenly Army! Some of the rebel soldiers couldn't help but scream.

The captives and the ringleaders shuddered. Both knees began to weaken.

As people of the country, they still have a deep-rooted reverence for the suzerainty in their bones.

"The commander of Daqian Yuan is here! Don't kneel yet! A cadre officer yelled. The few soldiers and captives who were not dead immediately fell to their knees.

Yuan Weiting looked at the leader of the chaotic army who was already trembling like chaff, and then at the woman whose clothes were already in tatters, took off his cloak and threw it to Ye Duren, the entourage beside him. Ye Duren stepped forward and wrapped the cloak around the woman indiscriminately, and glanced at the woman again. The woman had a pair of black and white eyes, but the two black pupils were like deep hollows. Although it is a face that is amazingly beautiful, the pupils are still chilling, just like the painted beauty has no eyes, without a trace of life.

Ye Duren frowned. He was not interested in this kind of ice-like beauty, and felt that even if Yuan Weiting gave it to him, it would not be interesting. It will not be flattering and tactful, and it is just a decoration to come. Of course, he also knew that Yuan Weiting would not do this.

Since Yuan Weiting came back from Lin Yiqing, he seems to have completely changed as a person, and he has the style of an ancient famous general.

Yuan Weiting was not like Ye Duren, he didn't look at the woman he gave the cloak to cover his shame, but stared at the leader.

"Which general of the Korean kingdom are you?" Wang Shizhen stepped forward, took out a white towel from his arms, and carefully wiped the leader's face.

"It seems that he is the leader of the Korean Guojing Army, and he dares to be presumptuous in front of our commander Yuan?" Wang Shizhen looked at his military uniform.

The leader looked at Wang Shizhen's smiling face, and the few remaining teeth in his mouth gurgled, but his lips tightened and he refused to say a word. Wang Shizhen's gaze turned on the remaining rebels, and his smile became more gentle: "Don't say it? Do you despise the military law of our great cadres? ”

He suddenly threw down the white towel and walked back to Yuan Weiting's side.

"These people are not Japanese, not a single one." Wang Shizhen lowered her voice.

"Oh?" Yuan Weiting's eyebrows raised, and the two changed their eyes.

"Kill them all!" Yuan Weiting suddenly waved his hand, "Those who violate my military law are prescribed!" ”

As soon as the military order was given, the long knives of the cadres and soldiers were all raised high. Several snow-bright sword lights had fallen, and the head had rolled all the way to Yuan Weiting's feet.

"Keep people under the knife! Keep people under the knife! Leave people under the knife ......"

Yuan Weiting turned his back to the door. He didn't look back at the person, and stepped on the head of the person under his feet, and a cold smile flashed on his lips.

"Knife ...... Leave people under the knife ......" The Korean envoy rushed in panting with a team of personal soldiers. As soon as he entered the stable, the smell of horses had already smoked him, and he hurriedly covered his nose. Wheezing and panting.

"The envoy is also there? It's really a coincidence tonight, I'm encountering a chaotic army doing evil, is the envoy here to see my great military might? ”

"Yuan ...... Lord Yuan," the envoy sent by the Courtyard King always had a flickering gaze, "My lord has misunderstood, these are all ...... Our sergeant guarding the harbor, under the escort. ”

"The sergeant guarding the harbor? The envoy's guard? Wang Shizhen stepped forward, "Why are you wearing the military uniform of the Beijing Army?" How can they harass local people without authorization? ”

"Yes...... The control is not strict...... Loose discipline. ”

Yuan Weiting glanced at Wang Shizhen, and then looked at the envoy without saying a word. With the sharp tongue of the envoy. This kind of response is obviously a ghost in his heart, but Yuan Weiting has not yet figured out how a mere Jin woman is worthy of making a big move.

"My lord," Wang Shizhen's gaze swept over the surrounding captives, then looked at the woman at Ye Duren's feet, and then looked at the row of seriously injured rebel soldiers, and finally withdrew his gaze and glanced at Yuan Weiting, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

Wang Shizhen did not hide it. The sneer fell in the eyes of the envoy, and his heart was cold. At the same time, Yuan Weiting suddenly looked back, and his gaze seemed to penetrate the envoy.

"Lord Yuan......" the envoy tentatively said.

Yuan Weiting turned to look at the captives around him, ignoring the envoys.

"This is the ...... of His Excellency the Royal Father," Chin said.

"Is it just a little thing?" Yuan Weiting suddenly turned around and looked directly at the envoy, "Why bother so many twists and turns? ”

"Your Excellency......" the envoy was shocked. He had been with this small ruler of the Celestial Empire for less than a day, and he thought that he was a small member of the officialdom with a lot of officials, but now he couldn't see his eyes clearly.

"The envoy hasn't led any soldiers, has he? Troublemakers. I feel that on the battlefield, it is very common to kill a person and harm a woman, and there is often no reason...... But the hearts of the people have been lost because of this, and they have been re-enshrined in troubled times. It must be severely punished by law. Yuan Weiting smiled coldly, "If the envoy finds it inconvenient, then it is up to me to do my part for His Excellency the Royal Father." ”

Yuan Weiting took his hands and walked slowly to the door of the stable. Wang Shizhen nodded slightly at the group of cadre soldiers, and the soldiers immediately raised their bayonets and forced the rebellious soldiers huddled in the corner.

"Don't! Don't kill us! Please, don't kill us! A rebel soldier screamed, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing desperately.

The captives had already seen the eyes of those cadres and soldiers, and those were murderous eyes.

"Don't! Don't kill me! Don't kill me! Let me do whatever I want! "The rebel soldier just kowtowed as if he had gone mad.

Ye Duren didn't hear his shout, strode forward, and cut off his head with a knife.

The soldiers of the cadre army stepped forward together. The light of the sword came faster than fear, and the hearts of the soldiers of the rebel army turned the word "death", and the cold light had already fallen on them, and then their intense pain gave them no longer a chance to fear, but only instinctive wailing. For veterans, it doesn't matter how much the opponent is tortured, and those who are used to seeing blood are as simple as slaughtering pigs and sheep.

Whoever stabbed with the knife was a splash of red blood, splashed on the mottled walls, making it even more filthy. A few cadres were a little lighter, and the seriously wounded rebels crawled forward with blood stains on their howls. Even though they were desperate, the instinct to survive was still there, but they had nowhere to go. Perhaps because he was a little ashamed, the soldiers of the cadre army, who could not kill with one sword, attacked even more fiercely, caught up and dragged the wounded back, grabbed the hair, and chopped off the entire head.

Qin Envoy's face was bloodless, and he almost fainted. Although he had not seen a prisoner executed, he could not bear to see this man like a slaughterhouse like a cattle. As soon as he raised his head, Yuan Weiting's heavy eyes were staring at his twitching face without any emotion. The envoy gritted his teeth and shuddered.

The soldiers wiped the blood from their knives with the clothes of the dead soldiers. They all put their knives back into their sheaths, and suddenly there were fewer people in the room, and their vision widened. People's eyes fell on Ye Duren's body, and at his feet was the woman wrapped in a cloak, and the woman was still holding an eight- or nine-year-old child in her arms.

The child in the woman's arms suddenly blew vigorously with a bamboo whistle, and the whistle was a little hurried. I was a little trembling, but I could hear that it was a children's song with a Korean flavor. The kid stared at Yuan Weiting with a pair of big eyes, and he only knew how to blow hard, blow hard.

This change made everyone look at each other, and even Wang Shizhen, who was staring at the Korean envoy, suddenly turned his head and listened to the whistle silently.

"This kid seems to be a natural fool." Wang Shizhen said in a low voice.

Yuan Weiting turned around and walked a few steps and stood in front of the child. Life and death are already a matter of moments, and the child's bamboo whistle is still jumping happily in the stable that smells of blood. There's a hint of weirdness.

"Will there be any other tune?" Yuan Weiting suddenly asked.

The child was stunned for a moment and nodded. The tone of the bamboo whistle has changed, with a more cool atmosphere and a little more softness. The room was full of people standing there, watching Yuan Weiting listen to the music, listening and listening, he actually looked up at the moon outside the window, and his fingers clasped the beat in the palm of his hand. The child blows and blows. No one can imagine the stagnation and trembling that no longer begins. A stupid kid can blow so many wonderful changes on a bamboo whistle.

Yuan Weiting lowered his head and stared at the child with a big and ugly head. He looked at Yuan Weiting, blowing a bamboo whistle, and there was life in his eyes. Yuan Weiting stretched out his hand, hesitated, and touched the child's head.

"Although a fool. But he can be proficient in music and rhythm, and he may be able to attain silk and bamboo in the future," Yuan Weiting turned to look at the envoy, "It's much better than some guys who are sane but always do stupid things." What do you think? ”

"Lord Yuan...... It's ......" Although he was gritting his teeth, he met Yuan Weiting's gaze. The envoy flinched again.

"Thank you Lord Yuan for saving me!" Jin Ziyu fell to the ground at this time, and kowtowed to Yuan Weiting again and again, "Dead wood is reborn!" Flesh and bones! Kindness of adults, never forget! ”

Yuan Weiting glanced at Jin Ziyu, arched his hand to the sky, and said calmly: "It's all the great emperor Weide, you must keep it in mind." With that, he turned and walked towards the door.

"Thank you! Great Son of Heaven, the grace of heaven is mighty! Heavenly grace! - "Jin Ziyu slammed on the ground, exclaimed with all his strength. Jin Ziye, who was relieved, didn't care about the blood in his mouth, and knelt on the ground with him, and kowtowed to the mountain with the other brothers to call out the grace of heaven.

All the people of the Jin clan knelt there crying and shouting thanks, only the woman wrapped in the cloak silently looked at Yuan Weiting's back, one hand tightly grasping the corner of the cloak.

"Military Gate! See! Signal rockets! ”

At the mouth of the Han River, on the flybridge of the armored cruiser "Chaoyong", an officer pointed to a green light flashing in the night sky in the distance, and said excitedly to Ding Yuting, the commander of the Beiyang Naval Division.

Ding Yuting raised the binoculars and looked in the direction pointed by the officer, and after seeing that it was the green signal rocket launched by his own army, a big stone in his heart fell to the ground, and he couldn't help but be surprised by Yuan Weiting's talent.

He didn't expect that Yuan Weiting would control all the key points in Seoul so quickly.

For Yuan Baoling's nephew, he originally only had a vague impression, only remembering that this young man had been serving in Wu Changqing's army, and there was nothing special, but in this time to quell the Korean rebellion, he showed extraordinary talent.

Like this time when the army entered the court, in order to choose the best landing site, Yuan Weiting "walked barefoot on the sand and gravel, landed on the shore, and both feet were broken", which made Ding Yuting admire, "The same can be true of a young man!" ”

After the Qianguo army landed at Mashanpu, Nanyang Prefecture, 120 miles west of Incheon Port, Wu Changqing's Huai army was slightly lax in discipline because there had been no war for a long time. After the cadres were encamped, some Korean gentry came to accuse the Korean rebels of rape, killing, and plundering, and Yuan Weiting "led a team to investigate on foot, personally supervised and searched for them, but did not eat day and night, and all the prisoners were immediately beheaded." For a while, the Korean gentry and people all respected, and the suburbs of Seoul gradually calmed down, giving a good start to the rebellion of the Heavenly Empire's pacification of the vassal states.

Qianguo is the suzerainty of Korea, but the suzerain-vassal relationship between Qianguo and Korea is different from international law, and the DPRK does not have strict obligations to Qianguo except for regular tribute, and Qianguo has never heard of Korea's internal and foreign affairs. However, due to the fact that the strength of the Qianguo increased after the Westernization Movement, and the surrounding vassal states were constantly lost under the invasion of the Western powers, and one of them, the Ryukyus, was once annexed by Japan, the Qianguo paid special attention to Korea, a vassal state close to the land of Longxing, in order to prevent changes under the elbow. The current mutiny in Korea was a good opportunity for the Qianguo to strengthen its sovereignty over the DPRK. Zhang Shusheng, the governor of Zhili and minister of Beiyang (Li Shaoquan's mother was still in his hometown in Anhui at that time, and was acting by Zhang Shusheng) received the news of the Korean mutiny and Japan's dispatch of troops and the suggestion that China should also quickly send warships to Korea from a telegram from Li Shuchang, the minister of the Qianguo State to Japan, immediately decided to adopt an active policy toward Korea and reported it to Prime Minister Yamen, and first ordered Zhou Fu of Tianjin Customs to contact Kim Yun-sik, the DPRK's leading envoy in China, and Yu Yunzhong, the parliamentarian, several times to understand the situation of the DPRK.
