"Woo!"
The sound of the horn resounded throughout Laomukong.
While the sound waves broke the tranquility of the rising sun, they also suddenly gave the ruins of Lao Mukong a sense of solemnity.
In the solemnity, there is a long-lost passion.
In other words, angry!
On the grounds of the original Ming military academy in Xiazhai, Wang Wu stood with a sword.
Behind them was the big flag that Wansi and the others had just raised with red cloth.
Red cloth dyed with the blood of Manchu monks.
Under the rising sun, blood is red.
The 158 Ming soldiers who followed Wang Wu in his surprise attack on Cizhucong were arranged in two rows holding broad swords or bows.
Everyone wears armor and has a determined gaze.
The 46 surrendered soldiers who were willing to follow Wang Wu and continue to fight against the Qing formed their own platoon under the leadership of Ma Changyuan.
It was Gou Sheng who blew the horn vigorously.
In order to make the horn sound louder, Gou Sheng blew his cheeks as if they were about to explode.
Round and round.
The sound of the horn soon spread throughout every inch of Laomukong.
"Promoted to the military account?"
A group of surrender soldiers who were leaning against the corner of the south-facing room to bask in the sun were startled by the sudden sound of the horn. They all looked in the direction of the sound in confusion.
According to military regulations, trumpets must be fired when the military tent is promoted.
If a cannon is not carried, a bugle will be used instead.
When the trumpet (gun) sounds, the three armies must arrive without any reason.
Violators will be beheaded.
Soldiers have been familiar with this military rule since the first day they entered the military camp.
But they haven't been promoted to the military account for a long time.
They haven't even been together since their hair was shaved off and they were cleared!
Just because the higher-ups were worried that something would happen if they were brought together.
But today, why did the account increase?
"Let's go, gather together!"
Two old soldiers with graying braids subconsciously got up and prepared to gather, but one of them was holding a cucurbit silk, and the other was holding a broken chess book.
Lost each other's attention.
"Promoted to the military tent, promoted to the military tent!"
More and more surrendered soldiers heard the call for assembly. Some went to the school grounds spontaneously, while others rushed there under the leadership of officers.
Along the way, the soldiers were puzzled and the officers were even more confused. They didn't know why the superiors suddenly summoned the military tent.
Some people speculated whether the Manchus wanted them to go to Beili Zhuangfang to beat Liu Tichun.
Some people wondered whether the Qing army wanted to reorganize them into the Green Camp.
Some people didn't take it seriously and just said that the higher-ups had to re-count the number of people.
Some people were worried that the Qing army was going to demobilize them.
There are all kinds of speculations.
The first ones to rush to the school grounds were the recent Ta Tianbao troops. However, when these soldiers arrived, they discovered that the person who summoned them was not Ta Houye, nor the Manchus who came to monitor them in the army, nor the commander-in-chief Ma Wenzhong, but A young man holding a machete standing under a red flag.
They didn't recognize any of the soldiers wearing armor and holding swords around the young man.
An officer looked around for the Manchu monk and Mr. Ma.
But he couldn't see it, and he immediately realized that something was wrong, but before he could open his mouth to remind him that there was a problem, someone suddenly rushed in and took him down.
The person ordered to be captured was Ma Changyuan.
He quickly restrained all Ma Wenzhong's officers who were rushing to the school grounds to prevent these people from causing trouble due to disobedience, which would lead to large-scale conflicts on the school grounds.
The process of taking the person was smooth and no effective resistance was encountered.
On the one hand, it is because Ma Changyuan accurately arrested people.
On the other hand, it is naturally related to the fact that Ma Changyuan is also the commander-in-chief of the Tower Department.
Many soldiers were surprised at first. They didn't know why General Ma ordered the arrest. After discovering that the arrested were officers under Ma Wenzhong and no one touched them, they became relieved despite their doubts and wanted to see what happened. What happened.
Ma Changyuan also had many close subordinates in the camp. These people had already received Ma's instructions and secretly led people to monitor other ministries.
As long as there are signs of something wrong, we can suppress it immediately.
........
"Who the hell is blowing the trumpet this early in the morning!"
Guo An, who was having breakfast, was startled by the sound of the horn, and angrily opened the door and cursed.
Captain Zhou Zuihu, who was looking in the direction of the sound with his men, said quickly: "Sir, it's not us who blew it, it seems to be blown by the tower camp!"
"Tower camp?"
Guo An listened carefully and confirmed that the sound of the bugle came from the tower camp outside Xiazhai. He couldn't help but wonder: "Didn't the party commander go with the tower commander to see the unification of Manchuria and come back so soon?"
Tuesday Tiger was not sure: "Sir, could it be that little Tartar...could it be that monk who summoned us?"
"Eighty percent yes! Let's go and take a look!"
Guo An did not dare to neglect the Manchurian summons, and immediately led a group of soldiers to Xiazhai.
When we arrived at the Xiazhai school grounds, we saw that the school grounds were already crowded and dark.
Basically all the soldiers from the tower camp have arrived, and most of the soldiers from the party camp have also arrived.
Some family members held their children and watched the excitement from a distance outside the school grounds.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"
Tuesday Tiger yelled at the crowd to make way for Lord General.
Seeing that it was Commander Guo, the party soldiers who knew him quickly separated, and the tower camp soldiers inside also consciously retreated to both sides.
"Master Monk!"
Before he could emerge from the crowd, Guo An had already shouted.
There was no figure of the Manchu monk or Ma Wenzhong in sight, but Ma Changyuan, another commander-in-chief of Ta Tianbao, was standing there.
"Where is Master Monk?"
Guo An asked strangely, and when he saw that Master Seng's men were not there, he suddenly felt a sudden feeling in his heart, and there was a faint feeling that danger was coming.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Ma Changyuan suddenly stepped aside, and then a group of armored men holding large bows suddenly swarmed up from a few feet behind him, shooting at Guo An and his soldiers without any explanation.
With the sound of "whoosh", Guo An and several of his soldiers were hit by arrows on the spot.
Guo An was shot with seven arrows!
The unlucky Tuesday Tiger was also shot with three arrows.
"kill!"
Before the other soldiers around him could react, Ma Changyuan waved his hand, and a group of soldiers rushed forward and hacked to death Guo An and others who had been hit by arrows.
Guo An and others who acted quickly did not suffer much.
"It's murder, Mr. Guo was killed!"
The soldiers from the Tower Camp and the Party Camp who witnessed this scene were all frightened and stepped back one after another.
Viewed from above, it looks like an originally fixed inner circle has exploded and expanded infinitely.
"What's killing people!"
"Who was killed!"
"Damn it, don't squeeze me!"
The soldiers on the outside of the circle didn't even know what was happening. They were pushed back by the people in front, and many of them were almost pushed to the ground.
Seeing that the crowd was panicking and about to fall into chaos, a loud voice suddenly came from the circle: "Brothers of the Old Shun Army, I am Wang Wu, the general of Jingzhou. I am hereby ordered by the Duke of Anhui to kill the traitors Dang Shousu and Ta Tianbao." !...Now that the two thieves and their accomplices have been killed, please don’t panic, brothers in the Lao Shun Army!”
Accompanying the words, two long bamboo poles were raised high in the crowd.
The heads of Dang Shousu and Ta Tianbao were hung on it.
"And them!"
Before the surprised crowd could recover, hundreds of heads were thrown at them from mid-air.
The heads fell to the ground one after another after hitting Jiang Bing.
Almost instantly, the crowd exclaimed: "It's a real Tatar!"
