"Killed?"

Wang Wuyi was shocked and lost his voice: "My lord, these people are all old brothers under Liu Shuai, and since they don't want to return to Qing, why don't they let them go?" ”

"Let them go?"

Tian Shouyi sneered, twitched his nose, and snorted slightly: "These people are all Liu Erhu's old background, and they all have very tortuous heads, if they really let them go, they can bite us to death when they turn around!" ”

Between the words, he stared at the old soldiers on the dam, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.

is no longer called "Liu Shuai" but "Liu Erhu", which shows that the will to descend to the Qing Dynasty is very firm.

It's impossible to turn back.

Wang Wu didn't say anything, he understood what Tian Shouyi meant.

To be merciful to one's enemies is to be vicious to oneself.

The besieged veterans on the dam are all veterans of the Shun army who have followed Liu Tichun for many years, and these people have fought against the Qing army for 20 years, and it is impossible to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, so letting them go is equivalent to returning to the mountains.

Because everyone knows that the Ming army that has surrendered to the past will inevitably be asked by the Qing side to play the vanguard, which is also the principle of the Qing army's traditional conquest.

Manchuria supervised Mongolia, Mongolia supervised the Han army, Han army supervised the green battalion, and the green battalion supervised the surrender army.

In this way, letting go of these hundreds of elite veterans is that Suo Yanlong and Tian Shouyi, a group of generals, are making trouble for themselves.

Rather than not knowing how many people will die in the future to exterminate these old pawns, it is better to take advantage of today's brains and kill them all at once.

But Wang Wu was reluctant to do anything to these Shunjun veterans, if he really had a ruthless heart, he would not let Guo Kui and them leave.

Everyone has their own ambitions, and they don't force them.

Yes, he is ready to be a traitor, but he has his own moral bottom line!

In other words, his conscience did not allow him to swing his butcher's knife at the old pawns who would rather die than surrender.

Therefore, after hesitating, he still persuaded Tian Shouyi in a low voice: "My lord, these people were brought by Suozhen to beat Lao Mugang, and they have nothing to do with us, if they really want to suppress it, they should be suppressed by Suozhen himself... Let's not wade into this troubled water, it's not good for the reputation of adults to spread it. ”

This is to remind Tian Shouyi not to take the notoriety of killing his own people on his head and be used as a knife by Suo Yanlong.

Whoever has trouble will solve it themselves, and they will just be neutral.

This is also the best result that Wang Wu can think of.

Never stain the blood of the righteous.

Unexpectedly, Tian Shouyi didn't listen to persuasion at all, but said that they had to do this matter, and there was no room for negotiation.

The reason is that if the Qing side knew that they had let go of hundreds of Liu Tichun's old people, they would definitely doubt whether their surrender was reliable.

Once the Qing side is suspicious, Suo Yanlong and Tian Shouyi's fate is not good.

Therefore, it is impossible for him to remain neutral.

Moreover, Suo Yanlong alone could not suppress these hundreds of old soldiers, after all, those soldiers who were willing to surrender with Suo Yanlong were comrades-in-arms with these old soldiers, how could they succeed.

Dirty things, naturally, have to be done by Tabe, who has nothing to do with these old soldiers.

As soon as he dares not to do it, he will have to take the responsibility for turning back.

"Your Excellency,"

Although he knew that Tian Shouyi was forced by the situation to do it, Wang Wu still tried to make the last effort, Tian Shouyi didn't give him a chance to speak, he directly waved his hand and interrupted him, and said in a muffled voice: "Don't think so much, be smart when you do it, don't let Suozhen underestimate us." ”

With that, he walked straight to the dam platform.

Tian's cronies Ma Dasheng and Li Zhibing's side have already passed the gas, and now they are waiting for Suo Yanlong to make up their minds.

There are more than 2,000 people in Tianbe, excluding the more than 100 personal soldiers who were let go by Wang Wu, and the strength of these non-descending soldiers is also four or five times that of these old soldiers, which is more than enough to move.

What's more, Suo Yanlong won't watch it, he still has two or three hundred pro-soldiers in his hands who are willing to use knives against his own people.

Suo Yanlong was on the dam platform at this time, discussing something with his cronies and deputy generals Wang Zhili, Lu Congyun and others.

Tian Shouyi walked about seven or eight steps, then suddenly stopped and turned around and said to Wang Wu, who was unwilling: "Old Five, don't be stupid, these hundreds of heads are also our military merits, and you will be counted as a share at that time, and I will not treat you badly." ”

Wang Wu's mouth opened, and he finally swallowed what he wanted to say, and watched Tian Shouyi go to the dam.

The mute Zhu San quietly walked behind the captain and gently tugged on the captain's sleeve, "Abba Aba" gestured, but he persuaded the captain not to listen to the chief soldier.

The blind man Wansi looked at the group of old soldiers who were surrounded, and then glanced at the teams that were being transferred to the dam field one after another, and said in a low voice: "Captain, if you do this kind of thing, you will be killed by God's thunder." ”

Wang Wu was in a state of confusion, and he didn't know how to choose, so he asked Wan Si to call Tian Wen and Zhao Jinzhong and tell them what Tian Shouyi meant.

Tian Wen frowned, and actually scolded: "Damn, he locks Yanlong's heart ruthlessly!" ”

Zhao Jinzhong continued to remain silent.

This hundred households from Orion are like this, and they don't like to talk.

The dog came out, probably because he heard the blind man Wan Si say this, and said angrily: "Fifth brother, you can't do this thing, if you do it, you will cut off your children and grandchildren!" ”

Everyone did not agree to do this thing that had no eyes for a son.

"Captain, we can surrender, but we must not kill our own people!"

The blind man Wan Si was afraid that the captain would not be able to withstand the pressure of the chief soldier and do something that was indignant to the people and gods, so he knelt down.

"Captain, we've been fighting with the Tartars for so many years, which one doesn't have a deep hatred with the Tartars... The captain said that the court is gone, the emperor is gone, we can't fight anymore and have to surrender, so that the brothers can have a way to live, in this regard, I Tian Wen has nothing to say, it's a big deal to go home and farm. But I will never attack my own people, the captain really wants to do it, then I will leave now! ”

Tian Wen has a firm attitude, and it has always been shameful to kill his own people.

He Tian Wen is a scholar and knows what he can and can't do.

It's okay to be forced to surrender in a desperate situation, but if the premise of surrender is to get rid of his own people who are still bloody and willing to sacrifice, then he won't do anything.

Several other general flags and some small flags also came over when they heard the movement, although these people did not make a clear statement, they would do whatever the captain said, but Wang Wu knew that these people's hearts still rejected this kind of thing.

It is true that he can force these people to obey orders, and he believes that most of the remaining people will obey his orders, but can he really do something to those old soldiers who are unwilling to surrender?

Wang Wu, who was extremely entangled in his heart, looked at everyone, grabbed a ball of snow from the ground and kneaded it into a circle in his hand, turning around like a walnut, looking expressionless, but in fact, his heart was tormented like ants in a hot pot.

Halfway, the snowball in his palm was crushed by him and turned into ice water.

"Jinzhong come with me!"

Wang Wu asked Zhao Jinzhong to step aside with him and whispered a few words to him.

Zhao Jinzhong first looked surprised, looked at the young captain in front of him with some confusion, and then nodded slightly.

Still the same as before, I don't want to say a word.

The representative of the old pawn on the dam field is the guerrilla Ma Sizhong, and Xu Deyi, the general manager of Qian, is negotiating with Suo Yanlong, and the second general hopes that Suo Yanlong can let them go back to Lao Mugang for the sake of the past, even if Liu Shuai has been killed, they don't want to settle with Suo Yanlong.

In addition, it was requested that the body of the deputy general Yu Guohua be handed over to them and taken away.

The negotiations obviously had no result, because Suo Yanlong did not agree with Ma and Xu to lead the troops away, and even tied Ma and Xu under the persuasion of the deputy general Lu Congyun.

This made the old pawns who didn't want to surrender to the Qing Dynasty into an uproar.

The atmosphere began to be tense, and Wang Wu took his own military camp to enter the dam field according to Tian Shouyi's wishes.

A clash between the two sides seemed inevitable.

The veterans realized that this might be their last battle, and although they were far outnumbered by the ranks that surrounded them, most of the gray-haired veterans did not flinch or flinch, but silently took up their weapons and formed a circle, looking warily at the soldiers surrounding them in front of them.

Yesterday, they were in the same camp.

Today, they have become two enemies.

The old pawns did not curse, but mechanically maintained a complete formation, and their breathing was a little short.

As time passed, the hands of the veterans clenched their weapons with increasing strength.

They have to make a last stand for the faith in their hearts.

This belief may be an obsession.

Twenty years, or even thirty years of obsession.

"There is an order to lock the town, as long as you put down your weapons, the lock town will not harm your lives!"

"Da Ming is dead, Liu Shuai is also dead, why should the brothers insist on it!"

"As long as you are willing to surrender, Suozhen will definitely treat you well, find a wife for you to have children, and be safe and stable for the rest of your life!"

“......”

Suo Yanlong's henchman Lu Congyun kept persuading the old soldiers not to resist needlessly, but all that answered him was silence and contempt and hatred.

The suppression teams have been put in place one after another, and the bows and crossbows and muskets are aimed at the old soldiers.

Although many soldiers were reluctant to suppress the old soldiers, they had no choice but to obey under the orders and coercion of the officers.

"Your Excellency!"

Wang Wu walked up to Tian Shouyi and nodded.

Tian Shouyi also nodded, and then looked at Suo Yanlong on the dam platform.

Suo Yanlong, who had no result in persuasion, had a dark and ugly face at this time, he didn't want to kill these old soldiers, but if he didn't do so, the trouble was too great, so he had no choice but to look at the deputy general Wang Zhili, who immediately waved a triangular red flag in his hand down.

"Kill!"

The moment the red flag was waved, the officers of the lock department and the field department, who had already received the order, shouted in unison.

"Kill!"

Wang Wu also shouted, the green tendons burst out at the same time the long knife in the sheath was pulled out violently, and the cold light flashed, and he saw a human head "grunt" to the ground, rolling in the snow for three or four feet before stopping.

Above the snow, there was a red blood band that looked like a snake crawling.

It's so vivid, it's also very glaring.

A headless body fell to the ground with a heavy fall, splashing countless snowflakes as it fell to the ground, and then quickly dyeing the snow on the ground red.

The deceased is none other than the general soldier Tian Shouichi!

At the same time, a sharp arrow broke out of the string and shot straight towards the throat of Suoyanlong on the dam platform.

With a "poof", the arrow pierced straight into the skin of the unsuspecting Suoyanlong's throat, and shot into the flesh from the back of its neck, and then stuck heavily in it.

The end of the arrow vibrates like a rattletail snake, emitting inaudible sound waves.

The handle of the arrow is engraved with the character Zhao.

"Good man, don't surrender!"

Wang Wu, who struggled to cut off Tian Shouyi's neck, pointed the blood-filled big knife in his hand to the sky, and roared like a wild beast: "I am the fifth king of the big knife, and I don't want to be a dog for the Tartar to rush with me!" ”
