Chapter 130: Cannon Fodder
"My lord, a total of 430 people were killed, 125 were seriously injured, 140 were slightly injured, 115 people were captured, and the dead have been notified to their families to claim them, what will happen to those who are alive?" Song Qingxing asked impulsively, this time it can be said that the hidden dangers in the city have been swept away, and he is naturally in a good mood.
"Alive, why haven't I heard of anyone alive?" Yang Feng said blankly.
Song Qing immediately understood what he meant, the old man was a little hesitant, although he had also killed a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood for a lifetime, but this kind of killing prisoners was still somewhat psychologically disordered.
"Song Lao, these people are literati, they don't know how to play with guns, but they can play with pens, especially like to put gold on their faces, and like to flaunt a loyal minister or something, although in history there was a real invasion of foreign enemies, most of them were the first to surrender, and then changed careers to the new master to continue to sing praises, but it is precisely because of the inferiority complex in their hearts that they prefer to make a fuss in this regard.
So if these people are alive and have such an experience, they will boast about themselves, and they may even make glorious deeds of fighting with us and then dying unyieldingly, then what should we become? We have become rebels and thieves, after all, the common people don't understand this, let them fool for a long time, and it will be true, since this is the case, then let's not give them a chance to speak. Yang Feng said earnestly, he has always regarded the right to speak as very important.
"Understood, don't worry! Xiaguan has been killing people for almost 50 years, and this thing will be handled well. Song Qing nodded and said, he is not a nerd, he is also an old treacherous and cunning, so he naturally understands it.
"After dealing with it, I will give the court a good news, so that our Lafayette will not worry!" Yang Feng said with a cruel smile.
"Zhonghua, look at how rampant these rebellious ministers and thieves have become, pity this Wang Xifan. The mourning family underestimates him on weekdays, it is really a national disaster to produce loyal ministers, and he is poor and poor, thinking that he is a scholar, and he has been dealing with this traitor for so long, and when the city is dumb, he can actually raise this righteous flag with a group of scholars, which can be regarded as Yan Changshan in the world. After receiving the good news of counterinsurgency sent by Yang Feng by telegram, Cixi sighed and said to Rong Lu.
It is estimated that Wang Xifan has knowledge, and when he heard Lafayette compare himself with Yan Gaoqing, he may not know how to be grateful!
"Galeries Lafayette. And how do you reply to this telegram?" Sun Yuwen next to him said, this old guy let Yang Feng lock the pit of the Tongzhou camp for three whole days, until he withdrew from Beijing, the elite soldiers of the Eight Banners retook this military camp and found out, as for how to survive without food and drink, this is not popular, anyway, it is said that Sun Shangshu, the current minister of military aircraft, seems to have a natural fear of fly larvae, which is still spread from his inner house. However, after this catastrophe, he became more and more favored in front of Cixi, because Shi Duo has been sick these days, and he has already had the meaning of leading the military plane.
"Commendation." Cixi said with a sneer.
"Yang Reverse?" Sun Yuwen said in surprise.
"Wang Xifan, the book of the gift department. Carry the yellow flag to the right of citizenship, and one of his sons is the captain of the light car, and he is loyal to the festival! The mourning family is not afraid of the rebellious minister, and the mourning family is to let the people of the world see it. What is loyalty, what is treachery, the mourning family must let all the people in the world see. Those who are loyal to the Qing Dynasty will not be forgotten by the imperial court. Cixi said with pride, of course, she mainly knew the Tao, with Yang Feng's temper, she would never care about such a trivial matter with her.
Rong Lu and Sun Yuwen hurriedly knelt down the mountain and shouted long live.
At this time, Li Lianying came over with a telegram and said: "Lafayette, General Hangzhou has impeached Yuan Shikai, the governor of Zhejiang."
As soon as he heard this name, Guangxu's pupils, who were squatting at the feet of Lafayette like a dog, dilated suddenly, unforgettable, when he thought of this traitor who kicked Concubine Zhen and covered the jade seal with his hand, he had a feeling of indignation.
"What is the governor of Zhejiang, it's Yuan Rebellious!" Cixi shouted angrily, and she was equally unforgettable.
was so frightened that Li Lianying hurriedly lay on the ground and slapped herself.
"Get up, what's wrong with this Yuan Yi?" Cixi asked impatiently.
"The general of Hangzhou played, Yuan Wei trapped the garrison city with a rebel army, and wanted to force the garrison flag army to go to Fujian to exterminate the rebel army in Longyan, but after being refused, he cut off the food supply of the garrison city, and also put poison into it every day!" Li Lianying said.
He was exaggerating a bit, Yuan Shikai didn't put poison gas bombs into the garrison city, the cost of that thing was not cheap, he had people build a trebuchet and throw lit dried chili peppers into it every day.
When it comes to playing these vicious methods, he is not far behind Yang Feng.
"These traitors, look at the world, what kind of trouble you have become!" Cixi kicked Guangxu in a fit of rage.
"Send him a telegram back, tell him that the world is full of us, take out the courage of their ancestors when they followed Taizu Taizong to conquer the world, don't even be as good as a Han slave, Wang Xifan dares to act righteously, why don't they dare? If you have guns and cannons, you're afraid of those traitors?" Then she yelled viciously.
In fact, when she said this, General Hangzhou had already succumbed and showed the courage of his ancestors, where did they go to get it? Back then, our ancestors ate meat in the old forests of the Northeast, but now they can't even eat enough grass seeds, can it be the same?
Speaking of this time, the life of ordinary flag people is also quite pitiful, saying that it is the hardcore imperial grain, that is how many years ago the old yellow calendar, since the Xianfeng years began to reduce and decrease, but the population multiplied, a salary to feed more and more, errands anyway, the result is that the poorer and poorer, especially to die to put on a face to swell the face of the fat man, the rules do not allow them to do anything else, that is, to go out to do some small business have to be secret, in addition to a little political privilege, In fact, the life of the lower-class banner people is not as good as that of ordinary Han people, that is, some clans who have no errands have secretly worked outside to earn a little money at this time, and they have to change their clothes halfway, and when others ask where they are going, they have to pretend to go to the teahouse.
In this case, the courage of the ancestors has long been worn out, so that Yuan Shikai was trapped for a few days, there was no overnight food at home, at this time they were so hungry that their wives and children screamed, and then let the pepper smoke, how could they still have the heart to continue to hold on, even if the general of Hangzhou was unwilling, he had to open the gate of the garrison city and send out the 3,000 banner army, and these people then boarded the landing ship parked on the Qiantang River under the threat of bayonets and then sailed to Zhangzhou.
The counterinsurgency army led by Li Yuncong is waiting for them there, plus this batch of nearly 7,000 banner troops in his hands, in addition to Fuzhou, there is also a part of the sailor battalion, anyway, the entire Fujian and Zhejiang provinces are basically empty of the banner people's armed forces. Then the army that has been waiting in Zhangzhou for many days officially launched an attack on Longyan, as for the front, it is naturally the flag army, these are cannon fodder, where to go if you don't go ahead? Li Yuncong is not worried that these guys will rebel, first of all, not to mention their little ability, 7,000 people really want to rebel themselves, it is estimated that one regiment can be cleaned up, and their wives and children are all detained! Who dares to be dishonest? Go hard in front of you, and you can still receive a pension if you die, or you will wait for the whole family to go to the court!
It's a pity that the result of the battle disappointed him, Longyan's rebels had no ability to realize his ideals at all, and those rabble composed of the Green Battalion, the Green Worms, and the deceived rebels couldn't even defeat the Eight Banners elite soldiers. Under the threat of machine guns and artillery behind them, the 7,000 Banner Army was like an African black uncle fighting, shooting aimlessly while carrying a ladder and running forward like a frightened flock of sheep. Then when the cannonballs exploded at the head of the city, they all ran away at once, and then the elite soldiers of the Eight Banners climbed the city wall, and the organic spirits hurried down to open the city gates, and the seven thousand troops rushed in in a swarm, and then immediately began to set fire to and loot inside.
Li Yuncong wanted to stop them at first, after all, this is in his own land, and it is a bit inappropriate to do this again, but he was stopped by Jiang Guidi, who was his deputy division commander, Jiang Laoguo was blinded by poison gas in one eye, and had already arranged to be an idle official in Fuzhou City, and then guarded the more than 500,000 taels of silver he received to spend his old age in peace, this time because he was worried that Li Yuncong was too honest and would not play evil, so Yang Feng specially named him to be this consultant.
"Brother Li, let them toss, let's be good people at that time, they are wearing authentic imperial court uniforms, the more they burn and kill, the better we can reflect our goodness, and then the people in this area will know that the people in this area will know that the people in this area are bad people, those who wear our clothes are good people, the army of the court is bad people, and Lord Yang's army is good people, and if anyone wants them to rebel against Lord Yang in the future, no one will listen to it again." Jiang Guidi said very insidiously, this traitor to the Twist Army who betrayed Zhang Lexing back then, did this kind of thing and really lived up to Governor Yang's high expectations.
"Gao, it seems that this ginger is really old and spicy!" Li Yuncong smiled and gave a thumbs up.
"Brother, I'm over fifty years old this year, let's be honest and definitely not as good as you, when it comes to playing these chicken bits and pieces, I think I still have some ability, Lord Yang told me before leaving, these flag troops are a can't go back, now I see that they can be cannon fodder to do this, and they have to play a little ruthless, and you will listen to my arrangement for these things when the time comes." Jiang Gui said.
"What do you mean?" Li Yuncong hurriedly asked, he is still young after all in this kind of thing, and he is still a little unable to let go.
"Pit kill!" Jiang Gui smiled and squeezed out two words. (To be continued......)
