Sanxing City was awakened by the roar of horse hooves. When the mountain people who reported the news saw that the soldiers refused to open the door to save them, they could only flee in all directions. The tragic alarm bells echoed over the city. Soldiers wearing tattered cotton horns held Spear ran to the top of the city and looked at the waves of cavalry rushing up from the ice with a shocked expression.
"Don't be afraid, these are Rakshasa ghosts passing by. They are going to Vladivostok to fight! It has nothing to do with us. Don't shoot arrows." Master Dutong, wearing cotton armor studded with copper nails, panted and ran up the city wall, shouting loudly Calm the defenders.
However, these soldiers had not fought in many years, and they were extremely nervous at the moment. They all shouted not to shoot arrows. As a result, a young soldier actually heard it as shooting arrows. His hand trembled and a sharp arrow shot out. Fly straight from the top of the city into the wave of cavalry.
ah! With a scream, a Tsarist Russian cavalry was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, and blood suddenly spurted out. They all looked at him angrily and pounced on him. He took out his riding crop and whipped it with three whips.
"You have chicken hair growing in your ears and eyes? If you want to die, don't hold me back!"
Du Tong whipped three times to relieve his anger, turned around and shouted to the city, "Misunderstanding, this is a misunderstanding! A soldier just made a mistake! Don't get angry, foreigner!"
The veterans on the city wall saw how useless they were, and they were so embarrassed that their heads were almost stuck in their crotches. "What a shame! This is a living disgrace! Even the Rakshasa ghosts have beaten the three surnames, and you can't say anything else." Misunderstand"
"Who! Who is farting!" Du Tong glared angrily, "I gave up my face to save your lives and the lives of the people in this city. You don't thank me and you scold me behind my back?"
"Is it you, the bald man? And you, the big grasshopper? Are you two? You are a veteran, you think you know everything? Bah"
Dutong pointed his hand behind his back, "Where is that place? That is our home! Sanxing City, there are more than 10,000 households in the city, and together there are more than 30,000 lives! Men, women, old and young are all our relatives!"
"You want me to be tough? Okay, how do you want me to be tough? With the bow and arrow in your hand, or with the embroidered firecracker in the warehouse? Your king, Baldhead, is already fifty this year, right? Why don't you just support your family? Give up your seat and let a young man take the place?"
"And you big grasshopper, are you okay with the gout in your feet? I'm kind-hearted and tolerant of you, but it's just because we are all under one flag! I'm just counting on you sick ducks, old man soldiers, we and Luo What are you doing? Are you looking for death?"
"There are only three thousand defenders in the city with three surnames, and they are all trash like you. How can you tell me to have the courage to fight against the Rakshasa ghosts?" Dutong said with so much grievance that he burst into tears at the end.
"Whoa, whoa, there are tens of thousands of elite Rakshasa soldiers outside the city. They are all cavalry in the field. What if they come in and massacre the city in a hurry? Big grasshopper, your granddaughter is so beautiful. You are not afraid of being ruined by Rakshasa ghosts. Already?"
"Wang Baldou, does your grandson still want to study and marry a wife? If there is a war, how can we live our lives?"
This round of scolding made all the soldiers on the city lose their spirit. Thinking about the families in the city, the last bit of their ambition was thrown into the hole in the ice.
At this time, a group of cavalry had already been stationed under the city. The angry Gogol was surrounded by the cavalry on hand. He pointed to the city head and asked the translator to speak.
"We are the Tsarist Russian cavalry regiment passing through. We have the decree of your court to allow us to pass through. Why did you attack us? Give me an explanation, otherwise I"
Before Gogol could finish his scolding, an officer's crying face suddenly appeared from the top of the city. The wall of the Three Surnames city was not high, just over four meters. Here you can clearly see the expression of General Dutong.
Gogol was stunned and thought to himself, what kind of show is this? Why did he start crying before he started fighting? And she cried very, very wrongedly, as if a child had been wronged by the whole world.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuubilird; general, there is a misunderstanding, it is all a misunderstanding! Just now, a new soldier shivered and accidentally shot us, we are not disobeying the order and disrespecting you! We have no intention of starting a war with you, it is all a misunderstanding."
Dutong burst into tears. On the one hand, he was frightened by the military power of the Rakshasa ghost, and on the other hand, his subordinates did not understand his painstaking grievances. Thinking about the three daughters-in-law in his family who were fighting every day, he also made up his mind. We must not let Sanxing City fall into the flames of war.
"We will compensate! We will pay your army money so that our brother can heal his wounds. After all, he has been wronged, right?" As he spoke, a bag of silver was thrown out, and a guard grabbed the package in his hand.
When I opened it, I saw that the round silver ingots inside were all from the Qing Dynasty. It looked like there were five or six hundred taels in total. It is said that for this price, an arrow in the shoulder and a little skin injury would be a definite profit.
But Gogol didn't want to let him go just like that. Seeing that this guy was so easy to blackmail, wouldn't he be sorry for his own conscience if he didn't squeeze out more good things?
"Asshole! Are our brave Cossack cavalry from Tsarist Russia worth so much money? I will give you one last chance to show your sincerity, otherwise I will order an attack on the city!"
At this time, the four translators around Gogol suddenly shouted in Chinese, "Give us food and horse feed! Otherwise, attack the city immediately!"
At this moment, there were more soldiers on the city wall, and there were countless frightened young and strong people inside the city wall who gathered together to defend the city. When they heard the slogan of attacking the city shouted outside, they screamed in fear and fell to their knees.
"General! We can't attack the city! Our children are all in the city. Let's give them whatever they want, wuwuwu" there was a cry inside the city wall.
"That's it, that's it! I'll take the blame for this and I'll rely on you!" Dutong put his head in and shouted, "Five miles northeast of the city, there is a small hill called Tunliang Shop. Where are the 80,000 dans of alfalfa? You guys Go get it!”
"Eighty thousand dan!" Gogol's eyes suddenly lit up. "You won't lie to me, right? If you dare to lie to me, I will slaughter all the people in this city."
"I'm not lying to you, I really have horse information, you will know it when you get there."
"No, give me a token, otherwise what will happen if the defenders don't give it to you? We are passing by after all, and I don't want to kill the soldiers and civilians of the Qing Dynasty! Only if you give me a token will I believe you."
Dutong remembered stomping his feet, "Token, where can I give you a token? I just came out, and all I had on me was this. By the way, I have a family heirloom sword, which is known to all the soldiers around Sanxing City. If you see this knife, you will see me."
After saying that, he threw a heavy sword from the top of the city. Gogol stretched out his hand to take a closer look at the gold and gems he swallowed. He nodded, "I don't want it for nothing! Wait until we win this battle." , the sword will be returned to you, and I will give you a big gift! Hahaha"
The Rakshasa Cavalry Regiment swept across the earth like locusts, leaving only a trampled mess in the end. The captain was slumped on the tower in cold sweat as if his backbone had been ripped out.
He pointed at all the officers present and the representatives of wealthy households in the city, "I am doing this for your lives! From now on, please donate money to me, otherwise I will not be able to save my life or my official position!"
"If you don't save my life, I can kill you all before I die! If you don't believe it, try it."
Lord Tutong's great official authority was not easy to use against foreigners, but it was still very effective in suppressing these people. On the spot, people on the tower fell to their knees.
