Chapter 101: A Lost Era

The people he can pick out must be absolutely reliable, Martinov made it very clear that after killing Guangxu, these soldiers can choose to flee or surrender, if they are braver, he is very willing to take them to defend the honor of a soldier. No matter which path they take, the only requirement is to forget about this task cleanly.

Guangxu was also in extreme uneasiness at this time, he heard the gunshots around him very clearly, and he also knew the situation of the Russians, Guangxu was walking back and forth in the house, except for his two concubines, only Liangbi was still loyally following him. He was wondering what he was going to do tomorrow, whether the Russians would be able to save him.

"Aiqing, do you think the Russians can withstand it?"

Guangxu asked something that should not be asked, Liangbi's face was solemn, and his mouth moved twice without saying a word. There's really no way he can answer that question.

Guangxu had obviously gotten the answer, and at this time, a cannonball hit the back of their room, and the dust on the beams of the house was shaken down, and the two concubines screamed in fright. Guangxu was very annoyed: "What are you shouting?" Be quiet! ”

Liangbi stepped forward at this time: "Long live, the minister thinks it's better for us to hurry up and find a way out now." The Russians may not be reliable, and there are a few ordinary people's clothes here, let's change them, maybe we can take advantage of the chaos to get out of the mess. ”

Guangxu hesitated: "This, the situation outside is so bad, I'm afraid it's not safe, right?" ”

Escape. Guangxu really thought about it a long time ago, but he didn't have any guts. If he is hit by a bullet, he will probably die immediately. Staying here is even if you are caught by Yang Dagui. Lao Yuan may not kill himself. Yuan Shikai's person Guangxu still knows a little bit, at least for himself, Yuan Shikai is very interesting.

He didn't realize that there was no tomorrow for him, and Liangbi was still trying to persuade him, and Major General Mardinov broke in with the group of Russian soldiers. When more than 50 Russians with rifles surrounded the room tightly, Guangxu had not yet reacted to what these people were going to do.

"Your Majesty, the situation here is too dangerous. We decided to take you to a safe place. ”

Mardinov showed a smile on his face that made Guangxu very frightened, and when he said this, he pulled out his pistol, and Guangxu was stunned!

Liangbi still wanted to resist after reacting. While pulling out his gun, he shouted loudly that the only few guards outside came in to escort the car, but the guards outside had no way to come in, and he didn't have time to lift it up at all, and was stabbed to death with bayonets by several old hairy people.

Guangxu's two concubines did not call this time. Because the Russians didn't have a chance to shout at them. When all the cronies in the room were killed by the Russians, only Guangxu was left standing there with trembling legs and a pale face.

Mardinov's pistol was already aimed at Guangxu's forehead: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, we are no longer capable of protecting you, and General Kizerosky has long said that you must not be captured by the Chinese, so I can only do this." ”

Guangxu cried. He didn't want to cry either, but he really couldn't help it. Not only could he not control his tears. Even though he couldn't control his legs, he felt like he had no strength in his body, and he collapsed to the ground like a mess of mud.

He was originally a spineless person, maybe he had ideals, maybe he had ambitions, but when he had no backbone, these ideals and ambitions could only bring him endless pain. Now he finally understands that if he let go of the little unwillingness in his heart to be safe and stable in Beijing, he can live for a few more years.

Mardinov looked at Guangxu, shook his head, showed a look of contempt in his eyes, and pulled the trigger in his hand.

It's all over, when the Russians killed Guangxu, a Chinese army wearing Russian military uniforms was also massacring, Yang Xiaolin didn't want to kill all the Manchus and Mongols, he wanted to kill all those who still follow Guangxu! This is the change of the times, when some old times are to be replaced by new ones, those people and things that belong to the old times must disappear.

So with a single shot from Mardinov, an era is over.

"General, everyone has been killed, can we leave now?"

The Russian GIs were clearly in a hurry to leave the place, and the Chinese gunfire was already very close.

"Don't worry, we have at least twenty minutes to go, and everyone is working on the aftermath, getting some firewood to burn them all, and then blow up the house," Mardinov said. ”

Martinov thought clearly, Guangxu is very important, and death cannot be left to the Chinese. The best way is for the Chinese to find him, and never find him, even if it is a corpse.

His conspiracy really succeeded, after the end of the war, most of the more than 50 Russian soldiers were killed, and the rest of the people really kept their promises, and did not tell anyone about it, when the Chinese troops could not find Guangxu here, they launched a large-scale search for Kulen, and even for a long time afterward, the Chinese government hung Guangxu on the first position of the most wanted criminals in New China.

Later, Guangxu's life and death became an unsolved case, which aroused the interest of various countries in the world, and various versions of legends were also circulated. It was not until the 57th year of the Republic that an old Russian man approached the largest newspaper in China at that time, saying that he had fought with the Chinese in Kulen when he was young, and that one of their troops had been ordered to kill Guangxu, and that his body was burned later.

This statement really caused quite a stir, but at that time there was no way to confirm that what the Russian said was true, so the most correct statement was taken seriously.

Although Guangxu's whereabouts did not have the slightest impact on this war, not finding him really made Yang Xiaolin very disappointed! It's not that Yang Xiaolin has to catch Guangxu and kill him quickly, it's just that as a Chinese, as a former Chinese emperor, Guangxu did something he shouldn't do. The disaster brought to the whole country, Yang Xiaolin believes that he must give China an explanation.

Zhang Zuolin sent a telegram the next morning that after a night of fighting, our army had cleared all resistance in the Kulen area. The last group of soldiers of the Far Eastern Army was annihilated, the Russian commander Major General Martinov and more than 6,000 Russian soldiers were killed, and more than 8,000 entered the Chinese prisoner of war camps.

can only not catch Guangxu, it can be regarded as a regrettable episode in a successful battle, Yang Xiaolin is a little faintly lost.

Lost is lost, and he won't dwell on it, because the war is not over yet. There are many things that are more important than Guangxu, and the layout of the Stessel corps must be carried out immediately.

According to the original plan, the attack on the Stessel corps was to be the main force of the Fourth Front. Before the battle on Cullen's side was over, Zaitao posted it to Stessel's side, and as soon as the gunfire here stopped, a skirmish of contact in the Montel area southwest of Cullen had begun.

On 22 January, the Chinese troops in Kulen split into two lines. The First Front Army fully returned to defense. Blocking the advance of Kilensky's corps, the 20,000 troops of the 2nd Front and the 5th Front quickly advanced towards Montel and attacked Stexel.

At present, the encirclement has not yet been formed, and Stessel is desperately trying to escape from Zaitao's entanglement, but the Russian troops lacking supplies are quite slow, and Yang Xiaolin knows that what he needs is time. He had already given a death order to Zhang Dewu, and he must outflank him within three days. The Russians cannot be allowed to stretch the distance between their two battlefields too much, and it will be difficult for China to resupply. The two battlefields were too far apart, and the supply of supplies was a nuisance.

High Command.

When Zaifeng stood in front of Yang Xiaolin again, his expression was a little nervous, although he is now nominally the logistics minister of the Fifth Army, but whether this identity can keep him, Zaifeng can't say clearly.

He knew that his life was in the hands of Yang Dagui, thinking that he had threatened this guy a lot when he was negotiating in Beijing City, and he almost killed him, and he felt cold and cold in his back.

Judging from his complexion, Yang Dagui is smiling. However, this does not reassure Zaifeng, because he knows that this guy is laughing when he kills! It's not the first time that a photo of him standing on top of a Russian corpse and grinning has made headlines.

"Lord Wang, let's meet again? Do you drink tea or coffee? ”

Zaifeng didn't think about it at all when he was extremely nervous: "Tea." ”

"I'm sorry, I don't have any tea."

"Let's coffee."

"The coffee doesn't seem to be gone anymore."

Zaifeng is not only sweating on the door of his head, but also sweating on the tip of his nose! He subconsciously wiped it with his sleeve, and Yang Xiaolin looked at it and smiled even more happily: "What's wrong, Lord Wang, am I hot here?" ”

Zaifeng nodded, and suddenly shook his head again, he was really sweating, but he felt cold all over! Looking at his appearance, Yang Xiaolin knew that he had made a mistake, and he should understand him if he thought about it, the number three person on the wanted warrant, except for Guangxu and Zhebu Zundamba, was him, written in red.

What's more, Zaifeng has already heard that Jebu Zundamba was imprisoned after the last time he came to Yang Dagui, and I heard that he was tried when the war was about to be carried out, and the judges from China were already on the way. People dare to move if they have guns and fight ghosts, so this time Zaitao sent him a letter to reassure him, how could he put his mind at ease?

Yang Xiaolin knew that when Manchukuo was established in the Northeast in history, Zaifeng and Zaitao did not go. Zaitao didn't go because he didn't like the Japanese, and finally chose to resist Japan. Zaifeng didn't go because this person was very homesick, and he didn't want to leave Beijing, but several of his sons and daughters held important positions in Manchukuo.

It's the same this time, Zaifeng has already sent his child to Europe, and it stands to reason that he also has a chance to escape, if he left Mongolia half a year ago, there is really nothing he can do about him. But Zaifeng insisted on the last glimmer of hope, thinking that it would be best not to leave China, and when he wanted to leave, he couldn't leave.

Yang Xiaolin came over and pressed Zaifeng on the chair and sat down, while he sat on the table opposite Zaifeng: "Lord, it's not the first time we've dealt with each other, I'll be honest with you, it's really not okay if you don't deal with this matter!" But one thing you can rest assured is that what you do during this time should save your life. ”

Zaifeng was slightly relieved in his heart: "Thank you Commander for your kindness." I only want to have a chance to retire now, and I don't dare to ask for anything else, Commander, rest assured, I will never think about anything wrong. ”

Yang Xiaolin smiled, Zaifeng said that he believed it, but just like Zhebu Tsundamba, these guys actually have use value. Yang Xiaolin leaned his head towards Zaifeng and asked in a low voice, "Lord Wang, can I ask you a secret, how much money do you have?" (To be continued......)
