Chapter 515 The Unbearable Night

The battle for the city gate in the west of the city was just a contact battle. As soon as the troops started to return, they misfired. The Qing army fired tentatively, but there was no response.

Wang Huacheng tossed his towel and said angrily: "What a fool Zou Imam is! He doesn't even put up a decent resistance. Brothers, take prisoners for me and rush out of the city to kill his mother. No one is left alive."

At this time, the Qing cavalry led the victorious Yuwei Brigade cavalry out of the city to capture the fleeing Muslims, driving batches of them together like animals, and then captured more than 2,000 fleeing Muslims back to Shishe Town.

"Everyone, please calm down. We are the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty. We are extremely kind to the common people and prisoners of war." The cavalry of the Qing army waved their whips and told the prisoners the truth. Their lustful expressions were like searching for women. In the army, they pay attention to seniority and seniority. The next one will be punished based on military exploits

The Qing army is already a civilized army. In most cases, it does not do anything that is contemptible. Unless it is a bloody battle, the commander will let the army do whatever he wants in order to vent his anger. This Qing army's raid went so smoothly and they will treat the local people kindly. I won’t kill anyone who is a bit obedient [

Li Guolou did not expect that Zou Baohe could run faster than a rabbit. He had never seen Zou Ziqi from beginning to end. There were too many strange things on the battlefield. After learning that the Qing army had occupied the west gate of the city, Li Guolou smiled casually and said: "Well done to Wang Huacheng." In this case, I will ask the emperor to take credit for him and order Wang Huacheng to station his troops outside the city and not close the city gate. Just let the returning army watch. I want to see who will be Sima Yi."

The herald took the order and the generals left. None of the generals raised any objections to Li Guolou's bold move. They had already risked their lives and didn't care whether he would kill a carbine when he returned to the army.

Seeing that the Qing army was still besieging the military camp, Li Guolou shook his head and smiled bitterly. He returned to the army and hid in the military camp waiting to die.

"Please surrender, surrender your guns and don't kill them. It's not worth using the artillery on these useless people." Li Guolou issued a military order to stop the shelling of the military camp.

The rumbling sound of artillery stopped, and the earth finally got a chance to breathe. The Qing troops who had been killing people and setting fires just now were putting out fires in the streets.

Some strong fortresses were still resisting, but when they saw the artillery in front of them, most of the returning troops in the forts surrendered obediently. The few forts that resisted to the end were quickly bombarded into ruins by explosive charges. By the time the remaining more than a hundred remnants of the returning troops in the camp were defeated, General surrendered and walked out of the barracks in dejection. All the Qing troops burst out with shouts of victory. A fortified town was captured easily by the Qing troops.

Li Guolou was everywhere. The Qing soldiers who visited the heroes inspected the fortifications in Shishe Town and even gave a speech to more than 600 captured returning soldiers.

The carrier pigeon reports the good news to the troops. White clouds float in the blue sky. It's like being in a dream. Those white clouds don't look real.

Li Guolou stood on the highest point of a watchtower, overlooking the entire Shishe Town. Looking at the smoky town, a smile as bright as fireworks finally appeared on his face. He won the bet and the surprise attack ended perfectly.

However, it seems that it is not perfect yet and lacks a little beautiful scenery. Li Guolou said loudly: "Find some women who can embroider to embroider the Chinese character "Li" for me overnight. The flag must be big and beautiful. Don't abuse these women. This is my order."

"Long live the big, beautiful and understanding." Zheng Hengdan, who was doing paperwork, scratched his head and kept issuing military orders without stopping.

"Little shoulder pole, don't think too much. Don't put things in the same place. Don't bother me. Don't report anything to me. Just go to Cheng Kun. He knows. That's fine. I just take care of military affairs. This is also an order." Li Guolou rolled his eyes and Zheng Hengdan left the room to find a well. Sitting alone on a stone bench by the well, washing clothes by myself

Although there are some things that I have never done in the past, I can do them whenever I want to. Washing clothes is not difficult. Li Guolou sat doing the laundry and wiped the clothes on the washboard very seriously. In fact, he wanted to rest his head and his thoughts could not stop living. He felt like he was twitching. He hadn't slept in three days and it was going to kill him if he continued like this. His thoughts slowly calmed down with the rhythmic rubbing of clothes. He used to sing to the wind and the moon and live a happy life. Now he is resorting to laundry tricks to relieve stress.

Li Guolou was enjoying himself and hummed a folk tune while drying and washing his clothes. He then changed into a military uniform and put hair oil on his head to look oily and pink.

Li Guolou returned to his room to look at the defense map of Shishe Town. This was a map captured from the returning army. He took a bite of the hot noodle and drank a sip of kumiss, laughing without stopping.

"Guo Dazui is completely castrated now. I said Zou Baohe is a softie. The richer a person is, the more afraid he is of death. Only by showing off a town with a golden saddle can I show off my martial arts skills. Hahahaha." Li Guolou was enjoying dinner while admiring the glory. He laughed wildly at the result of his victory and sprayed the pasta out of his nose.

"Then how do you evaluate yourself, Chief Li?" Zheng Hengdan asked curiously. He usually didn't dare to talk too much, but he took advantage of Li Guolou's good mood and asked him for fun.

"Well, the richer I am, the less peaceful I am. Now I'm just trying my best. Later, I will take you abroad to play with high-end goods. Do you understand that if you want to become a gentleman, you must marry the daughter of a famous family?" Li Guolou hopes that all his men will be born in the mud. As for the true gentleman, even he can't tell the truth.

Anyway, move closer to a gentleman in words and deeds, and the dirty things you do secretly can erase the darkness of society. This is reflected in the fact that the corrupt Manchu and Qing government has long been rotten to the root. Li Guolou used his clever writing to dress himself up to be high-minded and honest, and can only really go to the battlefield. The principle of standing out of the silt and not staining the bad habits accumulated over thousands of years has its own existence. If you rely on external forces to overthrow the old forces, new forces will eventually decay and decline. This is how history goes in cycles for thousands of years [

Zheng Hengdan shook his head and said: "Mr. Li, I don't want to go abroad to talk to foreign girls. I don't understand and I have no interest in marrying a good man. I'd better marry a Hui girl. I'm going to be a groom soon."

It's still not clear which girl will be the bride. Everyone takes turns to pick. Is it a blessing to be at a disadvantage?

"I will live my whole life in peace at home." Li Guolou cannot educate the people around him. There are too many people who cannot resist the temptation in the face of reality. Even the batch of student soldiers in the new martial arts hall are ready to make a move. Although he forcibly suppresses them, young people should still have an upward spirit. To be romantic and happy so early

Zheng Hengdan said with a smile: "Mr. Li, you were the one who made the decision about my wife back then, and now I am the second one."

Hearing the voice of dissatisfaction, Li Guolou, a dwarf, laughed a few times and said: "Now I only care about military affairs and other mother-in-law and mother-in-law affairs. Don't tell me about your wedding wine. I won't drink it. Any news from the Zodiac?"

Zheng Hengtan said: "There is also a battalion of cavalry led by Li Yunqi to go out of the city to eliminate the rangers who have returned to the army. There will be no news tonight."

As the top military officer on the front line, Li Guolou was under too much pressure. He used more than 2,000 cavalry to frighten the returning army. If the returning army counterattacked tonight, he made up his mind to escape and would not fight. He had captured weapons and medicine to replenish, but he used the cavalry to fight offensive and defensive battles. Even if you win, you will lose. Tonight is the key to victory or defeat. Only when the follow-up troops arrive tomorrow can we say that he has won this battle.

Zheng Hengdan chuckled and said: "Chief Li, you are more powerful than Zhuge Kongming. You don't even close the city gate at night. The soldiers worship you like a god."

"But cases like the indispensable little shoulder pole are best not to be included in the textbook. It will harm others after death. You must first look at the person and the enemy's mentality to use this move. Different moves must be used for different enemies, just like the one we attacked today.

The returning troops in the three fortresses are real warriors, but these people will do too much harm to us.

So I want to crush them to ashes. In fact, I still admire this kind of opponent in my heart. But I also like the capitulationists. The force of the counterattack is stronger than the soldiers in our army. It's really good." Li Guolou suddenly remembered that Zheng Hengdan once

It was the White Lotus believers who immediately changed their tune and praised the capitulationists for their great achievements.

Zheng Hengdan is very scheming and adapts to the wind, otherwise he would not be promoted by Li Guolou. Li Guolou promotes talents without looking at academic qualifications, first loyalty and then work ability. As for the colorful articles in the copywriting, it is bullshit to fool people. Follow this

Only the superior officers have a future. Zheng Hengdan worked late at night to write down the shortcomings of the war. Li Guolou will revise it and it will become the speech of Xinwutang.

Night shrouded the earth. Li Guolou led a team of Goshiha to inspect the fortifications in the city. It was a sleepless night tonight. Lights were lit everywhere in the city. He only listened to the sound of the cane three times at each sentry, and then listened to the responses of the guard sergeants.

The captain, sentry officer, and battalion officer personally stand guard

The sentry saw Li Guolou showing reverence and loudly said: "Sir Li is mighty."

Li Guolou said with a smile: "The Qing army is mighty."

Half of the Qing troops guarding the city kept vigil and the other half rested. Sleep and fatigue are the biggest enemies. On the battlefield, one must persevere for three days and three nights without sleep. It is not worth publicizing so that the soldiers can see his figure and know about Li Guolou.

The power of faith around him is poor. He wants to bring his own power to every soldier and let this army bear the mark of Li Guolou.

The people of the Qing Dynasty have been disappointed with the emperor. It is obvious to all women and children of the Manchu government that the people are willing to sacrifice their lives for the emperor. Some people are willing to give up. Even the disciples of the Eight Banners will flinch, but they fight for the country and fight for a proud flag. The people are willing to sacrifice their lives.

Li Guolou just wants the army to fight for him. Although this is the style of warlords, the times have chosen the warlord system. The soldiers will not break the superstition of him. The common people like to build Zilong Temple, so let them build it. Anyway, it is next to Guandi Temple.

They are so loyal and courageous, then they will be perfect.

Hu Dagui, Lei Qigao, and Li Heng led the Han army to guard the city gate. Naturally, two bonfires were lit from Li Guo Tower to the west tower of the city, shining on all living things. The ground in the distance was full of fires as far as the eye could see.

"Oh, it's too much. I don't know what to say." Li Guolou shook his head and smiled bitterly. He opened the door to greet the enemy, and all of his subordinates accepted guests in an upright manner, which was more arrogant than him.

"It's not an exaggeration at all. We have discussed it. The softies don't even dare to approach tonight. The softies don't dare to hide in bed and tremble tomorrow. Chief Li has millions of soldiers under his command. If there is a war in the future, don't forget us." Although Hu Dagui

After being under Li Guolou's jurisdiction, he will be transferred to Guo Baochang's Anhui Army, but fighting with Li Guolou is a pleasure. The three elder brothers will like to hang out with Li Guolou.

"Hu Yingguan, please listen to me. Don't say that I am a coward. If they revolt in the future, why don't you use your brain to think about why they gave up Shishe Town so easily? Isn't it leaving a way out for the generals?" Li

Guolou reprimanded the three elder brothers and said that the elder brother will use his brain more to gain a deeper understanding.

"Yes, yes, I will definitely not say the words "coward", not arrogant or impetuous, and be a low-key person." Hu Dagui was secretly ashamed that he was scolding himself. Fortunately, Li Guolou reminded him a few words, otherwise he would lose his face.

Li Guolou stopped leaving when he came here. Looking at the piles of bonfires in the distance, he felt too much depression and wanted to release the long dark night. The loneliness was unbearable. Every Qing soldier knew how heavy the burden was.[

This night is the longest night in my life. The stars are shifting. The brilliant Milky Way is shining in various colors. Every star is telling a story. The dazzling Big Dipper is shining brilliantly. The meteors streaking across the sky seem to tell the world. There are all the generals here
