The Japanese soldiers patroled outside the prison cells again and found that there were prisoners who were lying still, so they asked them to go in to check them. If they died, they would drag them out.

Wei Jichen had no time to sigh at the fate of others. He was not a spoiled person. He received a bowl of light and smelly breakfast. He drank it all in one go. Then, with the support of two subordinates, he returned to the base of the wall.

Hu Zi clenched his fists tightly with both hands, then smashed them hard into the corner of the wall, and said angrily: "Damn, I would have known that I would have died on the battlefield. I would have to suffer the humiliation of the Japanese when I came here."

To be fair, Nie Shicheng's troops who were stunned by Wei Jichen were definitely the elite of the Qing army. They had a nest of generals and a soldier. The veteran Nie Shicheng was good at fighting. The soldiers under them were one of the few troops who dared to confront the Japanese head-on, and could compete with each other.

From North Korea to the country, this army has caused the Japanese to suffer several times.

However, it is hard to support it alone. Most of the Qing army is corrupt. Many soldiers have the bad habit of smoking opium. The wars and uncertainties of the upper class of the Qing Dynasty, the short-sightedness of the court, and the chaos of the entire military system. Li Hongzhang's private army, the Huai Army, can be said to have countless problems. How can it play the role of a mainstay? It can only be defeated one after another.

Wei Jichen kept looking at the soldiers around him. From his clothes and conversations with everyone, he learned that in this small cell alone, there were more than 50 soldiers from Yi Army, some from Feng Army, some from Sheng Army, and of course, there were also Lutai Zhulian Army, who was named the Thousand Battalions of Nie Shicheng, who was very messy anyway.

Since its establishment, the Huai Army has been deeply personal, and the generals are the backbone of soldiers. Once the general is captured or killed, the entire army is broken up or collapsed, which is just around the corner. What is even more backward is that the Huai Army uses battalions as the basic combat unit, with about 500 people in one battalion, and the battalion officials are the commanders of the battalion. The above battalion is the commander. Each commander has the fewest battalions and as many as dozens of battalions.

The Huai Army did not have a larger organization, and the operations were generally carried out by battalions of varying numbers of commanders. The commanders had an equal relationship and were not subordinate to each other. These battalions were generally recruited and trained by the commander. They had an inseparable relationship with the commander himself. They were not commanders or confidants designated by the commander, so the troops often refused to obey orders or even mutiny.

The intermediate officers were completely out of reach. The battalion officials who had only commanded a small army of about 500 people had been promoted to command the command of the commander, but they had to bite the bullet and command thousands of troops to suppress the peasant uprising in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. After not fighting for a long time, the commanders were all battalion officials promoted by the platoons. When they encountered foreign teams, life and death would be based on fate.

Of course, it is not ruled out that some geniuses are commanding large troops like using their fingers. However, most people are not geniuses, such as Ye Zhichao, Liu Shengxiu, who are not only greedy for life and fear death, but also incompetent. I don’t know how many opportunities to annihilate the Japanese.

When it comes to guns and ammunition, the Huai Army's guns are not only not behind the Japanese, but are much more advanced than the Japanese. On the eve of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, some of the Huai Army's troops were equipped with more advanced breech-shot guns, the main guns include Manlisha in Austria, the German New Mauser and the China Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau's counterfeit quick-shot guns, such as Zhao Huaiye's department, "all of which are the same quick-shot guns."

During the Battle of Pyongyang, according to Japanese records, the Qing army used seven-company guns and thirteen-company guns. Such an army armed with the most advanced weapons in the world at that time was beaten by the Japanese, which made people sigh.

Wei Jichen leaned against the corner and entered the system again. There were still many things that he didn't figure out. He took advantage of the time now and looked more, maybe it would be helpful for escaping from the prison.

As soon as he entered the system, Wei Jichen first discovered that his physical strength increased from 30/88 to 34/88. It seems that it was due to the bowl of porridge just now. 30 and 34 refer to his current physical strength, while 88 refers to his physical strength value under normal circumstances.

The other items have also increased by a little bit, but these have nothing to do with the overall situation.

Wei Jichen directly entered the big project that he had not had time to check: the task system.

When he saw the introduction on the interface, Wei Jichen couldn't help but feel excited because he saw the meritorious value.

Main mission: Crossing the line of fire - leading at least ten prisoners to escape from the sky and joining the Qing army.

Mission failed: Host died.

Mission completion: Reward 1000 merit points.

There is another completion degree below the task completion degree. When the completion degree is 10%, the reward is 100 merit value. Twenty percent is 200.

Wei Jichen thought about it for a moment and realized that the so-called completion rate was 10%, which means that he only saved one prisoner.

What if there were more than ten prisoners, Wei Jichen thought to himself that the military assistance system was really powerful. When Wei Jichen thought of this, the interface immediately gave an answer. For each person who exceeded one, he would increase the merit value by 5 on the merit value of 1,000.

This military auxiliary system is really a scam. If you lose one person, you will lose 100 merit points. If you increase one person, you will only increase 5 merit points.

Wei Jichen had no other idea about the failure of the mission and the death of the host. He could not escape the control of the Japanese, so he would definitely be unable to escape death.

Wei Jichen searched the system all over, but did not find any of them helpful to his current situation. It seems that this is the test of the system for him. The price of the test is his life. Without the help of the system, it depends on whether he can complete the first task. If it is completed, it means that he has the qualification to use the system. If it cannot be done at all, it means that he does not have the qualification.

I'm so happy, didn't it mean that there were novices rewards when playing games? Wei Jichen cursed in his heart indignantly, but it didn't take long before he calmed down.

What's wrong with me? Before the military auxiliary system appeared, I was thinking about how to escape from here. Has it been with this system now that I have lost confidence and the motivation to escape, and put everything on this broken system?

Wei Jichen began to ask himself, and finally found that he was really good. From the word "auxiliary" in the system, we can see that the system is not omnipotent, and the most important thing is to look at the person who uses it.

Even without the help of the system, I, Wei Jichen, will definitely be able to escape from this hell on earth, and Wei Jichen said in his heart.

"Dapeng, Huzi, see how many people in the prison are from our Gongshen Camp." Wei Jichen curled up and suddenly said.

The dejected Hu Zi did not think much when he heard Wei Jichen's order, but responded, and a light flashed in Deng Dapeng's turbid old eyes.

"By the way, where is Yun Feiren? Why didn't you see him?"

A subordinate Li Yunfei suddenly flashed in Wei Jichen's mind. Li Yunfei was the deputy whistleman. To put it simply, he was his lieutenant. Although he was delicate, he was a wise general who had been following Wei Jichen's side. Several of them were captured at the same time and were imprisoned with some means.

Wei Jichen didn't see him at this time, and he couldn't help but be surprised. Three cobblers were better than one Zhuge Liang. Maybe after a few of them had a plan, they could think of a safe way to escape the Japanese cage.

Hu Zi's eyes were floating and flickering, and he didn't dare to look at Wei Jichen's eyes, while Deng Dapeng looked sad.

"Your high fever did not subside yesterday. Yun Fei was worried that he would go to see the Japanese team leader." Deng Dapeng stammered.

The Japanese team leader?

Wei Jichen immediately looked like the Japanese lieutenant Ikeda Guanya.

Ikeda Kanya is the Japanese leader of this prisoner camp. He has a pair of swollen toad eyes and a fleshy face. What is impressive is that he has no hair on his head and his natural bald head.

This person is not only perverted and cruel, and abuses the prisoners wantonly, but also has a habit of Long Yang. He has long been attracted by Li Yunfei, who has a tender skin and flesh. However, Li Yunfei refused to obey. Ikeda Guanya also believes that there is time to play slowly and has not forced the young master.

After thinking for a while, Wei Jichen realized that Li Yunfei must have seen that he had a fever and was in danger of life, so he went to exchange medicine for his body. When he thought that Li Yunfei had sent a sheep into the tiger's mouth for him, Wei Jichen's already calm mood also stirred up, and slowly climbed up from the bottom of society. Wei Jichen, who lived in intrigues for most of the time, had already tasted all the warmth and coldness of the world, and his heart was extremely hard.

Although the reason why Li Yunfei was sacrificed was to be the former master of this body, this long-lost brotherly spirit of self-sacrifice made Wei Jichen feel a warmth, and then a sense of responsibility. In any case, if you are dead, you will definitely avenge you. If you are not dead, you will definitely take you out of this hell on earth.

Seeing Wei Jichen's cold face, Hu Zi said silently, "Brother Xiucai, you must avenge Brother Yun Fei!"

"I can do it!" Wei Jichen replied faintly.

Wei Jichen's brain began to run quickly. It was not easy to escape from here. After sorting out his memory, Wei Jichen knew that this place was a prison in Jiuliancheng. The Japanese left a small team of troops to guard the prisoners of more than 500 people. Once the prison cells were full, the Japanese would transport the prisoners to the rear.

Don’t think that the Japanese are only a small team of about 80 people, and they are so hungry that they are dizzy. The prisoners who are weak are just a group of sheep, while the Japanese who are guarding with weapons are a group of tigers. The advantage of numbers cannot be regarded as any advantage under the suppression of modern weapons.

There are several key places to escape from the prison. The first thing is to get out of the cell. After escaping from the cell, there is a guarding line of Japanese people outside the prison. Japanese soldiers patrolled back and forth day and night. Once there is any disturbance, the condescending Japanese outside the prison will let bullets shoot over.

As for running out of prison, it was Jiuliancheng. Jiuliancheng had long been occupied by the Japanese. I don’t know how many Japanese people were stationed in the city, and it was even more difficult to escape from this city. Of course, Wei Jichen only wanted to escape from the prison at this time. As for how to escape from the city, it was too early to think about it now.

While Wei Jichen was racking his brains, Hu Zi and Deng Dapeng had already whispered to ask about the origins of all the soldiers in this cell.

The two turned around and climbed to Wei Jichen.

"Scholars, there are ten people under the military gate, and one of them is a soldier from our whistle." Deng Dapeng lowered his body and said in Wei Jichen's ear.

Wei Jichen knew that the military gate that Deng Dapeng mentioned refers to Nie Shicheng.

The ten soldiers were from Gongzi Battalion. Wei Jichen was relieved and a little annoyed. What was annoyed was that the reason why Gongzi Battalion suffered such heavy losses was that there were so many prisoners. Just like the original owner of this body, Nie Shicheng's troops fought against the Japanese head-on, but the rescue had not arrived for a long time. In the end, they had to retreat, but the Japanese caught the fighter plane and surrounded and annihilated at least one battalion soldiers, including Wei Jichen, the unlucky guy. In the battle of Huer Mountain, a total of about 100 people were captured.

About one hundred people were scattered and imprisoned in more than a dozen cells, each cell ranging from four or five to more than a dozen.

"Wei Shou, do you want to tell them your identity?" Deng Dapeng continued.

Wei Jichen glanced at him gently, and it seemed that Deng Dapeng believed in his brothers in Gongying.

Wei Jichen's face was so dark and red that he was blown by the cannon fire. Even those who knew each other could not recognize him for a while.

He leaned his body slightly upward to the corner of the wall, and Wei Jichen shook his head and said, "The time has not come, don't tell me for the time being, Lao Deng, do you think the brothers can escape?"

In front of Deng Dapeng, Wei Jichen did not hide his determination to escape.

Deng Dapeng glanced at Leng Sen's prison door and said depressedly: "I'm looking at it. Oh, if I hadn't had the ammunition and food exhausted at that time, I wouldn't have given up on resisting. Daniu and the others would have died in battle."

In the wars in the East, surrender is unsatisfactory in any situation.

Deng Dapeng was talking about the Battle of Huer Mountain. It seemed that he was resentful of his surrender to the Japanese. Wei Jichen's whistle to cover the retreat of the large army, and in the end there were no few left. I don't know what the little scholar thought, so he asked the rest of the people to surrender. He probably had a lucky chance and hoped that the Qing army would rise up and save him.

However, Wei Jichen knew that according to the original history, this war was destined to be the Japanese to humiliate the Qing army. The face of the Qing court, the complacent and self-righteousness since the revival of Tongzhi, was finally trampled by the Japanese in this war. From then on, the Qing Dynasty completely became a lamb slaughtered by the great powers and the target of division.
