Episode 40 Extinguishing the Mouth

Fourteen Gege knelt quietly at the coffee table.

Haphon Ati paced his pistol and roared loudly:

“…… I advise you not to gamble with me, I can afford to lose, you can't afford to lose! This woman at my feet can't afford to lose! …… From the moment Lao Tzu led the team to fight across the Yangtze River, he didn't care much about this life! It's best to go back alive, no, it doesn't matter! With your Ming princess Liaoyang to accompany the funeral, Lao Tzu is worth it! …… I'll give you the last five minutes to get the people out of the way and get the car over! …… If you don't see the car at the door in five minutes, just wait and hear it! ”

Outside, in the tin horn, a voice shouted nervously:

"Ha Feng, don't mess around, if you hurt Her Royal Highness the Princess, we will ...... Just ......"

Ha Feng A laughed and said:

"What's going on?"

"That's it...... You're welcome! ”

"Hahahaha......"

Hafona laughed as if he had heard the funniest words in the world.

He had laughed enough, stood up to the window, and cried against the wall:

"Then you're not welcome to me! You're welcome though! …… Your princess is in my hands, and I can be rude to her at any time if I want to, but it's true! Hahaha...... I'll tell you, there's still four and a half minutes! ”

Fourteen Gege said coldly:

"Ha Feng, don't you really feel ashamed? The faces of the Qing officers have been disgraced by you! ”

Ha Feng'a pointed a gun at Fourteen Gege, and said angrily:

"Shut up! It's you who really lost your face! Tell you, whether I live or die today, you will definitely not live! ”

Fourteen Gege stared at him, and after a moment, he slowly lowered his head, his nails digging at the teacup.

"Bang", the porcelain cup of the thin tire of the official kiln was shattered. Her thumb was bleeding.

The phone rang suddenly, and Ha Fenga was startled. He hesitantly stared at the cloisonné phone placed on the rosewood trellis, and pointed his gun at the fourteen grids, a little hesitant.

Fourteen Gege was half-prostrate on the floor, blood on his hands smeared on his sleeves, and his eyes stared at him gloomily, like a female leopard with her whole body ready to attack.

Haphona regretted saying this so early. He did not dare to answer the phone himself, and ordered:

"Get up! Go answer the phone! …… Hear no, hurry up!! ”

Fourteen Gege slowly got up, straightened his dress, regained the appearance of a princess, glanced at him arrogantly, paced to the flower stand, and picked up the phone.

An eerie voice in the earpiece:

"You're not single. …… You have three more children......"

Fourteen Gege was stunned, his scalp was numb for a while, and he didn't know what was going on.

…… I still have three children?

The voice continued eeriely:

"Your eldest son's name is Ningde, who is seventeen years old this year, and your second son's name is Fushan, who is eleven years old...... Your daughter's name is Wan'er, and she is eight years old......"

Fourteen Gege couldn't help it and coughed lightly:

"Did you make a mistake?"

The other end of the phone was stunned, and suddenly changed his gloomy emphasis, and shouted:

"Your Royal Highness, thank God you answered the phone, I thought it was that guy! Am I not able to speak? If it's convenient, you can't hear clearly. ”

Fourteen Gege heard Xiang Xiaoqiang's voice, his whole body suddenly softened, and he didn't know how to get it, he immediately didn't pay attention to it, and he couldn't wait to let him arrange everything.

She took a deep breath, calmed down for two seconds, and frowned:

"Hey, who are you? Hey, I'm talking, I can't even hear my voice...... Don't talk and hang up! ”

Haphona stared at her a few paces away, beginning to look suspicious.

Xiang Xiaoqiang received the code of "it is convenient to speak", and said quickly:

"I won't say more, you remember: his grenade had at least six seconds from pulling the string to exploding. This means that even if he pulls the grenade, you still have six seconds to get out of the house. From now on, try to get as close to the door as possible, paying attention mainly to his pistol. Do you understand? …… No need for you to do anything, just ...... Just to tell you about the possibility. Just protect yourself, and I'll take care of him. …… Okay, now the idea is to let him answer the phone. ”

"Ah, it's you! Now I hear clearly," Fourteen Gege covered the earpiece and glanced at Hafenga, "I know, he's ...... right now"

Ha Feng'a was startled, roared and pounced, slapped Fourteen Gege to the ground, snatched the earpiece, pointed a gun at her, and said angrily:

"Do you want to die? Yes? If I want to die, I can kill you right now! ”

Fourteen Gege fell to the floor, staring at the gun, and sighed in his heart: Such a good opportunity, but unfortunately I didn't take it!

She supported her body with her arms and touched the corners of her hot mouth, but she squinted her eyes and said with a smile:

"Then you fight! …… I'm your only hostage now, and if you beat me to death, will you get out alive? ”

Hahaha laughed:

"Get out alive? Lao Tzu doesn't care! You think I'm as afraid of death as you are? ”

As he spoke, he brought the earpiece to his lips and yelled:

"Hear it, Lao Tzu is just this life, death is death, I don't care!"

An eerie voice came out of the microphone again:

"Your family...... Parents, Wife, and ...... Wife and children...... You care, right? ”

"What?"

The emotionless voice continued:

"Your eldest son's name is Ningde, he is seventeen years old this year, and he is studying army command at the Tianjin Army School...... Your second son's name is Fushan, and he is eleven years old...... Your daughter's name is Wan'er, and she is eight years old...... Both of them attended primary school at the Eight Banners Military School in Beijing...... They live with your sixty-year-old mother, one of your wives, and two aunts, at No. 46 Neiwufu Street in the east of the city......"

Ha Feng'a was stunned, listened to the earpiece in a daze, and said for a long time:

"What do you say? Who are you? ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang pressed his throat and smiled coldly:

"Your youngest son and youngest daughter are out of school at five o'clock in the afternoon, and there is only one driver every day, who drives a car to pick them up...... Isn't that right? Oh, by the way, that car doesn't seem to be bulletproof, right? Hehehe......"

Haphona's hands and feet were cold for a while. My own family in Beijing...... How do they know?

His mind was a little confused, and half of the single's momentum just now was lost in the blink of an eye, and he said in a hoarse voice:

"You...... What do you mean? Tell me what you want to do? ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang bowed his head and flipped through the information he had just taken from the East Factory, and smiled:

"It's not interesting, huh...... Just to make sure to you, it's your family, no mistake, right? Hehe, if you say no, I'll immediately deduct the salary of those rice buckets, hahaha......"

Ha Feng'a swallowed his saliva and sneered:

"What are you trying to threaten me with my family? Do you think it will be useful? ”

"That's right...... Then give it a try, and after trying it, you will know if it works. …… Hehe, we don't know each other anymore, I'll let you pick it yourself. Does it start with your youngest son, or your youngest daughter? Is it a bomb or a bullet? …… It doesn't matter, soon, as long as you say a word, I'll shoot a telegram...... The results will probably be available before noon. ”

Hafon's whole body trembled, and the anger and fear in his chest were intertwined. He clutched the microphone tightly, and the ivory-stemmed earpiece was about to be broken. Finally burst out with a burst of applause:

"You brutes! What exactly do you want to do? Isn't it despicable to threaten other people's wives and children? ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang smiled:

"I don't think so! Not at all. If it is not despicable for someone to slaughter dozens of villagers and kidnap young girls, then why should I feel despicable? You say yes, hahaha. ”

Hafona's blood seemed to have coagulated all over his body.

Just as Ha Feng'a himself said, from the moment he led his team to cross the Yangtze River and attack Nanjing, he put his life and death out of the way. The things he is doing now are not just for his own life, but more for his family in Beiqing. He thought that no matter whether he could go back alive or not, he would make things earth-shattering in Nanming, and let the emperor know that there was a division commander who would enter Nanjing even if the whole army was wiped out, and risk his life to kill the commander of the People's Guard, or kill the Manchu traitor Fourteen Gege. In this way, whether he lives or dies, he will become a hero, and his family will not only not suffer with him, but will receive a large pension and be well taken care of.

But the other party actually found out all his family members and put them here to threaten themselves nakedly! Now it seems that it is no longer a matter of life and death, but the life and death of one's own family! Once the family is poisoned by those Nanming spies, everything he is doing now is meaningless.

He gasped and thought quickly. He knew he couldn't look like he was being pinched. Ha Fenga stared at Fourteen Gege viciously, and said into the microphone:

"Hey, listen! You have to figure out the situation, now I have a princess in my hands! What you are threatening is just the family of an ordinary division commander! …… Do you think I'm going to be as idiotic as you are? ”

"Oh, that's right...... Then, you keep your princess, and I keep the seven members of your family. Or just like that? Talk, okay? ”

Haphona felt a hint of despair. The other party doesn't seem to care about the princess's life or death at all.

Perhaps, the other party is playing a bachelor's game?

Xiang Xiaoqiang smiled:

"Do you think I'm playing a bachelor's job? Haha, do you still need to play a bachelor in this matter? If you think about it with your ass, you can figure it out: Yes, Princess Liaoyang is important, much more important than the family of a small teacher, but for whom? For us? No...... For those of us, Princess Liaoyang is just four words. She was really blown up by you, and in our entire Ming Dynasty, no one will shed a single tear. The common people would only eat dinner, look at the newspaper and say: Hmm, the boy and his father, what kind of Liaoyang princess let whoever blew up and killed...... Hey, dad boy, the green onions in the east of the city are two cents cheaper than those in the west of the city today! …… Ahahaha......"

Ha Feng'a was so angry that he stared at Fourteen Gege through gritted teeth, but he couldn't deny that the other party was right.

Fourteen Ge sat on the floor, looking at him suspiciously, guessing what was being said on the phone.

Xiang Xiaoqiang laughed for a while, laughed enough, sucked his saliva, and continued:

"You might say, that's ordinary people, of course they don't care! Hehe, let me tell you, it's us 'responsible', the worst thing is to be scolded by the boss, and even the position will not be demoted! Even the salary will not be deducted! …… Anyway, I fought well by the river this morning, and I wiped out your Eight Banners Division again, Your Majesty is in a good mood, she may wave her hand: Forget it, pay attention next time! …… Hahahaha, for us, it's over. ”

Then Xiang Xiaoqiang put away his smile, gritted his teeth and said gloomily:

"But...... For your family, things are just getting started...... First of all, your driver, cook, coachman, and servant were inexplicably cut off their arms and legs, so your family will recruit new drivers, cooks, coachmen, and servants. When these new drivers, cooks, coachmen, and servants move into your house, hehehe...... On a dark and windy night, one, two, three sounds...... There were seven screams in total. The next day, people were horrified to find that the family had been wiped out...... Fun, right? Ahahaha......"

"Shut !!" Ha Fenga was crazy and yelled, "Shut up! Shut up!!! ”

He kicked the rosewood trellis with a kick, and the heavy rosewood trellis was kicked several meters away by him and slammed into the floor. The cloisonné telephone fell to the ground with a "bang", and was caught up by the microphone line in his hand, half-hanging in the air.

"Tut-tut," Xiang Xiaoqiang smacked his lips and sighed, "What's so angry, it's just an idea, let's talk about it...... Warning you, it's okay to drop things, don't hang up on me, no one dares to hang up on my phone yet. I'm thin-skinned and won't come in again. ”

Hafona clutched the microphone tightly, as if he was grasping the lives of the whole family. He shivered, leaned his back against the wall, sat down slowly on the ground, wiped the sweat from his face, and said hoarsely:

"You...... What do you want? ”

"Huh? What do I think? Damn, you're still unreasonable! ”

Haphona was angry, frightened, and his face was pale and he was panting heavily. He stared hatefully at the fourteen squares sitting next to him, and looked up to the sky and sighed:

"That's it! That's it! You have a kind, count you ruthless...... Let's talk about the conditions! Say, I let the princess go, what conditions do you give me? ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang sat in the guardhouse, buried his face in the palm of his hand and let out a long breath. He took a towel to wipe the cold sweat from his face, and said in his heart that he was finally going to win.

Li Changgui and Xiuxiu listened with an extension next to them, and when they heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and looked up at him with admiration. Xiang Xiaoqiang smiled at them, and then said:

"Conditions? Hehe, the conditions are still very favorable. First, you have to die. ”

Li Changgui and Xiuxiu, as well as the other guards in the house, were shocked. Big guy, please, how can there be such a negotiation?

But Ha Feng'a on the phone laughed, sighed, and said calmly:

"Yes, I let people kill more than 40 villagers in Zhangjia Village, and the eldest husband dares to do it. I knew I had to die. No problem. ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang couldn't help but feel a trace of admiration. He nodded:

"Good, it's a man. …… Second, you can get a chance at a public trial. It's going to be a big public court-martial, and journalists from all over the world are invited to attend, and you're going to be the main character. You can stand in court and make an impassioned statement, saying that you sneaked into Nanjing to assassinate the Empress of the Southern Ming Dynasty, assassinate Fourteen Gege, and assassinate me, the commander of the People's Guard, but unfortunately failed, and after being captured, you refused our persuasion to surrender, and resolutely chose to surrender, and so on...... We'll all recognize it. You will then be escorted to the execution ground and shot. For us, it was the execution of a murderer, and for the Northern Qing Dynasty, it was a heroic sacrifice. At that time, think about the honor behind you, and what your family will get, I won't say more. ”

Hafona held the telephone weakly, leaned against the wall, a satisfied smile on his face, and said intermittently:

"Good...... Very good...... Thank you...... Enough friends ......."

……

"Let Her Highness the Princess come out first!"

The loudspeaker in the courtyard shouted.

The Japanese-style sliding door slowly opened, and fourteen grids appeared in the doorway. She was still dressed in Hanfu, her expression was indifferent, she brushed her water sleeves unhurriedly, crossed the threshold with her long skirt, put on her shoes, and walked down gently.

The guards swarmed her, caught her in the middle, and quickly retreated into the distance, into the guardhouse.

Xiang Xiaoqiang stepped forward to salute deeply, looked at her carefully, and suddenly felt relaxed all over, the ruffian just now was swept away, his mouth was grinning, and he couldn't say a word.

Fourteen Gege also looked at him with a smile, and his heart was indescribably happy.

The two looked at each other for a long time, Fourteen Gege glanced at the people around him, coughed, Ying Ying bowed, and said:

"Thank you for saving your life!"

Everyone was in an uproar, and Xiang Xiaoqiang hurriedly picked her up. I only felt that in my hands, the jade arms under the silk were soft and smooth, as if they were all soft.

Fourteen Gege raised his eyes, a hint of cunning and shyness flashing in his gaze.

Xiang Xiaoqiang was embarrassed, his face was like fire, he coughed dryly, and said:

"Your Highness is frightened......"

At this time, Xiuxiu came to the front, bowed to the fourteen grids, and said with tears:

"Xiuxiu, thank Your Royal Highness the Princess! Her Royal Highness the princess's life-saving grace, Xiuxiu will never forget it for the rest of her life! ”

Although Fourteen Gege was very unhappy with this little girl, he also picked her up with a smile at this time, hugged her affectionately, patted her back gently, and whispered fiercely in his ear:

"Shang Xiu, you can do it, last time you pretended to be me in Pukou, and this time you almost killed me...... We'll see! ”

Xiuxiu:

“……”

……

The loudspeaker outside is shouting again:

"Haphona, now open the window and throw the pistol out! Slowly! ”

Hafona struggled to his feet, pushed open the window, slowly raised his pistol for the outside to see, and then let go, the gun fell out.

"Okay, stay still now, don't throw the grenade out, let's go in and take it out!"

Li Changgui carried a submachine gun, walked to the door in person, and entered carefully.

Ha Feng'a sat at the coffee table, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it slowly. He pointed to the grenade around his neck and smiled:

"Don't worry, the lid is already screwed on."

Li Changgui walked up to him with a gun, squatted down, and reached out to unscrew the lid of the grenade.

Ha Feng looked down in surprise and asked:

"What is this for?"

Li Changgui's index finger wrapped around the grenade ring, looked at him coldly, and said:

"Don't think about the public trial, and don't want to be a hero."

"What?"

Li Changgui looked at the door, licked his lips, and suddenly shouted:

"Ahh Hafona, what do you want to do? Don't pull grenades!! Yes! ”

Li Changgui pulled the fuse at once, then jumped away, pointed the gun at Hafeng'a is shuttle, then ran to the door in two or three steps, jumped into the yard, got up and ran a few steps, and fell to the ground.

Hafon'a, who was in the room, opened his mouth wide and looked at the bloody bullet hole on his chest and the grenade spewing green smoke......

With a loud bang, several Japanese-style wooden doors flew out like pieces of paper, and all the windows and doors spewed fire.

After the explosion, the floor of the Japanese-style hall was blown into a large crater, and the floor was filled with broken wood and choking gunsmoke.

Hafona was lying on the ground, his chest was blown to the ground, his eyes and mouth were wide open.
