C591 Secret Weapon Arrival

On the battlefield, Lei Ao was constantly pressing the shutter button. To the mysterious East, every detail was deeply attracted to him, whether it was the war or the scene of him crying bitterly in front of him.

Many years later, he had already become China Unicom. He gathered countless photos into a picture album, and each photo was accompanied by a story. This battle lunch was one of the most famous pictures.

'The Chinese society is a very contradictory collection. Their philosophy of domination is really incomprehensible to the West, because they are always balancing what they call yin and yang, 'Reo said in the book.

How could a group of people who had never received any military education, a group of people who had to be led out of their hometown for a hundred miles, a frog at the bottom of a well who was trapped in their home by land and their clan, respond to such a sudden change?

Do not blame these people for their cowardice and numbness, because they have never been educated against anything since they were young. Even the weapons that could threaten their homes were taken away.

The entire society had taught them, instilling in them only resignation, only a humble life. Unless a serious Great Famine appeared in such a race, only then would they dare to resist against them, and the only reason why they resisted was because they wanted to live on.

However, this group of people had completely brainwashed the people, and at the same time, they were the most furious group in the ruling class. Whenever the country was invaded by foreign enemies, or there was internal strife, no one would reflect on their stupid people brainwashing policies.

You've even taken away the knives in the houses of the commoners. You're usually afraid that the commoners would resist a little, but now that an enemy has arrived, you expect the sheep to immediately transform into a tiger?

Historically, Ci Xi had used the Boxer Alliance to fight the foreign invaders, and that was a manifestation of his kind of thinking. When she incited the fanatical citizens to attack the foreign invaders, she had probably already forgotten that he had ordered the massacre of millions of Taiping Army s and Twisted Army s.

Poor, lamentable Chinese grass people, this word is really good, life is as cheap as grass.

Today, in Leo's footage, this group of grass citizens were in pain over the canned meat one by one. Many of them choked with sobs as they said, "If I had known earlier, I would have done it with you. If we had such good food, we would have already bet, wuu …"

was also stunned, even the En Yangzhong soldiers were also stunned, how could this group of commoners eat and not fight?

The new army was really spoiled. They had already forgotten their original lives. In the past, when they were grass citizens, their expressions were the same as usual. They could risk their lives just to eat one mouthful.

Xiao Letian let out a long sigh in his heart, "Sigh … I have finally experienced the despicable fate of late Qing's people. I have previously seen my lover's notes, that in Guangzhou, a clan would hire countless idler to take the lead, each life was only worth a thousand copper coins … "After the allied army of eight countries entered Beijing, the Qing government officials even spent money to buy the lives of the commoners. If they beheaded the foreigners to appease their anger, their lives would not be worth more than three taels of silver …"

"Before, I didn't believe it, but today, I really do …"

"Believe what? What are you talking about, my lord? " Wang Huaiyuan asked suspiciously.

"Nothing …" Xiao Letian quickly cut in: "You said that Huai Army does not fight nor allow people to clear the way, are you waiting for reinforcements? Is there any reinforcements in Beijing? Just those soldiers who smoke big cigarettes? "

Wang Huaiyuan laughed coldly and said, "Of course there are plenty of soldiers. In fact, just gathering all the private troops of the nobles and nobles in Beijing is already a big army, but it's hard to say if this kind of unorganized army can fight!"

"Right now, what I am most worried about is still the Jingshan. Although Ceng Guofan and many of the great officials of the Chinese Officer have pressured Ci Xi, and this old demoness already doesn't dare to touch the life of Empress Dowager Ci An, the longer we drag it out, the more we fear that the Jingshan won't be able to hold on … If we compromise, it will be difficult to handle it! "

Xiao Letian nodded his head, "The information shows that Ci An is a reserved woman with a good view of the situation. She is different from Ci Xi, who has the Rivers and Mountains Society in his heart, while Ci Xi is just trying to maximize his own rights …"

"This time, Ci An is going against the pressure and bargaining power of the imperial government, it's already not easy for him. If I drag this on for too long, I'm afraid that the weakness in Ci An's heart that was good for the imperial government will come back …"

Saying that, Xiao Letian clenched his teeth and hardened his heart, "There's no time to waste, let's use our trump card!"

When he said that, Wang Huaiyuan's heart immediately quivered, "Master! Have you really thought about it? You really don't regret it? " At that moment, even Wang Huaiyuan, who was used to seeing life and death, revealed a look of fear.

"If I don't go to hell, then who goes to hell. Even if there is retribution in the future, I, Xiao Letian, will bear it all by myself … However, this kind of weapon is too dangerous, we can't let our darling and risk it. Saying that, Xiao Letian pointed towards the crying commoners.

Not long after, Liu Anchen and the rest of the group appeared within the group of refugees. "Everyone obey my orders, Prime Minister Xiao of the East China Sea has given the order to recruit mercenaries from among you. Let's fight this round, each person has to pay ten foreign silver coins … …" Is there anyone registering? "

"The prime minister is treating you to meat, so I'll give you money …" "Ten silver coins are enough to buy a calf. Think carefully, after this village, there won't be this shop anymore …"

The crowd burst into an uproar. This group of grass citizens, who had never spent any money in their entire lives, suddenly had their eyes light up at this moment. Their numb and emotionless expressions mysteriously disappeared.

At that time, the gap between the rich and the poor was simply unimaginable. For the officers under Xiao Letian, their monthly salary was already a few hundred times faster, which was calculated to say that their purchasing power at that time was enough to buy a hundred cows or even several acres of paddy fields.

Even Xiao Letian himself, for a family banquet, ten yuan was not even enough. However, to the people living in extreme poverty, they had only spent a single copper coin in their entire lives. Sometimes, they even had to use eggs, vegetables or other things to exchange for goods. Silver was just like a legend to them.

Everyone was excited. This was the price of a cow! Even a cheap daughter-in-law could buy one. At that time, quite a few young men stood up. Count me in, as long as you, my lord, do not fool me! "

Xiao Letian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Do I lie to you about ten dollars? Also, he didn't need to find out about the identity of the Letian Firm … "Everyone will first receive two pieces of rewards. After the battle ends, those who die will receive one hundred yuan of Ocean Aids, and those who are severely injured will receive sixty yuan of Ocean Awards …"

Hearing that, everyone went crazy, the five hundred to six hundred young men jumped out from the crowd, surrounding En Yangzhong and the others as they registered.

The abnormal movements within the new army did not escape Li Hongzhang's eyes. At this time, he had long been driven mad by Xiao Letian, and his face was full of malice.

"Dammit, this Xiao Letian is organizing the young and strong. He has more than a thousand subordinates. Where is the warhorse that the court has promised me? Where's the reinforcements that promised me? An entire night has passed, and adding on the fact that half a day has already passed, why is he still not here! "

At this time, his nephew who was standing beside him said, "Marshal, how about we leave?" Those who died were all brothers of the Huai Army, there was no need for us to lose so many of our brothers to the Manchu! "Save your strength …"

"Shut up, you think I don't want to leave? How am I supposed to retreat if the Empress Dowager's reinforcements don't arrive? Three thousand warhorses have come, and ten thousand Eight Flags Soldier. I don't believe that not many people will be able to charge into this small square formation … "

"This is already at the final critical moment, what if we win? Wouldn't it be the end of our credit... Furthermore, if the Eight Banners are unable to stop the new army, then we will have nothing to refute if we continue to retreat. At that time, the imperial government will have no excuse to make things difficult for us! "

Time passed second by second, Li Hongzhang sent his personal guards to pacify his morale, while Xiao Letian's army was also well-prepared, the five hundred well-selected young and strong men carried an extra large grenade in their hands, with a diameter of half a foot.

"Be careful, you must be careful. After pulling the rope, you will throw it into the enemy pile …" "If it's not heavy, you can throw it away …"

"Sir, what is this? Isn't that what you guys used to do? "

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. I'll just tell you guys one thing, this thing is very dangerous, you better not miss your spot!" "Be a good boy and throw away a few fat guys to earn a cow. You'll never be able to get something like this in your entire life …"

The new army was currently teaching the young strong men how to use this hand grenade, nicknamed 'Fatty', when something suddenly happened. The northwest land suddenly shook slightly, and ripples appeared on the surface of the water.

"It's the cavalry!" "Large scale cavalry …" Luo Huo shouted out on the spot.

At this moment, the Huai Army was also in high spirits, especially the troops guarding the northeast side. They jumped out of the ditches one by one and exploded their heads against Ye Qiu's group.

Soon, in the rain from the northwest, a black shadow rushed over. It was the reinforcements that had arrived late. The three thousand warhorses had already started to speed up, and there were still countless frenzied shouts from the horses. It was the ten thousand reinforcements.

"Prepare the horses, I'm going to receive reinforcements!" Li Hongzhang rode her horse around the herd of horses to welcome them. She saw An Dehai's familiar figure from a distance.

"Eunuch An... I am Shao Quan … "You're finally here …"

"Aiya, it's Marshal Li …" This humble one greets you, how is the battle going? "

Li Hongzhang never thought that Ci Xi would be able to send An Dehai out to be his overseer. He turned around and looked at the group of Ministry of Internal Affairs Supervisors around him, he immediately understood that the army he brought today could be said to be the last army in the capital.

"I'm ashamed, that Xiao Letian has four rapid fire guns in his hands, their firepower dense like the rain … "We lost 30% of our forces, but we still failed …" After saying that, Li Hongzhang wiped the tears off her face.

An Dehai knew what was important, he understood that he couldn't afford to offend these Chinese warlord s, so he quickly consoled them, "Master, don't be sad, didn't I bring reinforcements?

"Nothing to say, nothing to say …" This battle is easy to fight off. Our Huai Army s block the north, south and east sides, opening a gap in the west side and allowing the three thousand cavalrymen to rush in. No matter how fast their spears are, they won't be able to make it in time … "

"As long as their formation is disordered, we ten thousand elite soldiers can drown them with a single spit …" "Eunuch, please give the order. This victory is prepared for you!"

An Dehai was immediately overjoyed, "Aiyah! That means I can get addicted to being a general? "Good, everyone heed my order and attack!"
