【159】Seeds

Ouyang Ming wanted to refuse, but a lazy flagman pulled out Shangfang's sword and directly put it on his neck: "Old man, I think you have been away from the country for too long and are rebellious. How dare you disobey the emperor's will? Let's say no, I will kill your dog's head and open a sacrifice flag for Meiyang!"

When did Ouyang Ming, a civil servant, have been frightened so much that he was scared and sweated in a cold sweat on the spot. He quickly agreed, chased his front feet and fled desperately from the military camp that had been smoky.

After this tossing, the seeds thought they had controlled the situation, so they just waited for the "Dragon and what" to come back, and worked together to hold him hostage, forcing him to contribute money and work hard to train a strong overseas soldier for the emperor, and then everyone promoted their positions and had a bright future...

The abacus was pretty good, but after the recruitment notice was posted, the seeds were shocked to find that there was no 'surplus grain' in this military camp! In other words, the finances in this large camp were basically zero. After plundering, there was no spot of money!

A good woman is hard to cook without rice, and it is hard to do things without money!

He found several instructors left in the barracks to ask, and only then did he learn that Long Hao's return date was not yet determined, and the main force of the expeditionary army was fighting in Mexico again, and the commander-in-chief was a noble major from Spain... After hearing this, the seeds were stunned.

What, there are really foreigners? The bannerman seeds are all in his forehead and can't believe it.

Oops, this matter was reckless. After coming in, I saw only a group of Chinese people. I thought this was a base camp of dragons! Oh, I offended the foreigners and were still a powerful country like Spain. If I was not good, we would have to lose our heads together! The Chinese seeds were sweating in their foreheads, and their eyes were rumbling. They quickly served the answering instructors in good wine and vegetable fields. They asked carefully about the situation...

Because according to the consistent thinking of the seeds, at most, there is only a few dollars to have. It is a fantasy to burn the country bumpkins and have wealth, but it is absolutely a fantasy to be able to get along with the foreigners!

Eating the fragrant roast chicken and drinking the clear song. Several left-behind instructors sneered in their hearts: The trick left by the young master is really useful. We specially removed all foreign soldiers from the military camp. You bunch of candids were really fooled, and the food was not too ugly! Now that I got the fish card, it was stuck in my throat?

After eating and drinking, the left-behind instructor patted the shoulders of the seeds of "humane teaching" and laughed: "You have caused a big disaster. This army camp is the rear base of Major Castillo. He commanded the main force to fight bloody battles on the front line, but you cut off his retreat as soon as you came. How would you react if you were to this situation? Will you get rid of your gun and fall back..."

When the seeds heard this, they immediately sweated profusely and wet their backs: Yes, this hatred is no less than the hatred of killing my father and taking his wife. If I were to come back immediately. Kill all the thieves who cut off my back!

"Oh, is there a way to resolve it? We are considered to be a newcomer, and those who do not know are innocent... This military camp is still owned by Major Castillo!"

The seeds have thick skin and turn their tongues to wipe off their ugly "eating appearance".

The left-behind instructor glanced at the corner of his eyes and shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid it's too late. The news that you took over this military camp was sent out by telegram yesterday! Alas. I said you are the same. If you don't come early or late, you will be able to leave for a while, and the action is so big. The consequences are... I'm afraid Major Castillo has commanded the troops and rushed back quickly!"

ah?!

The seeds looked bitter: Can we blame this? Who knows what kind of wind you are trying to get, and suddenly pulled all the foreign soldiers outside to train, and they were picked on the day we came... If we could see even a foreigner, we would not be so reckless!

Besides, who sent this telegram? Who sent it so quickly? You are the most suspicious...

I vaguely knew that I might have been cheated, but the seeds could not get angry, and they still had to ask with a smile: "Ah, what should I do? The conscience of heaven and earth, we really have no bad intentions... Please teach us all the instructors!"

The left-behind instructor was surrounded by these seeds begging grandpa like stars and suing grandma. His face was still cold. After thinking for a while, a few words burst out: "It's not impossible to have a solution, it depends on your actual actions..."

"What practical action?" The seeds saw a hint of dawn in the darkness, and their tricks suddenly lit up.

"Closing your luggage immediately, equip your weapons, and heading to the south. If you encounter the team that the major comes back, you can explain that you are here to participate in the war! Only in this way can the 'misunderstanding' be eliminated!"

After listening to the words of the left-behind instructor, the seeds understood: This is called an alternative "vote for fame"!

You said I was eager to come and work hard for you, so the matter of occupying the military camp and seizing military power would naturally disappear!

After thinking it through, the seeds began to hesitate again: We have only been here for a few days, and we are thousands of miles away from home. Those who are not familiar with the land are going to go to war? By the way, we can use foreign guns under our hands, and we can count them with a slap...

"Is there any other way?"

"It's gone!" The left-behind instructor glared at his eyes, got up and left: "You can choose to stay and wait... Hehe... Major Castillo's anger, anyway, we will leave here tomorrow morning and go to meet with the major!"

"But... our subordinates don't use foreign guns!" The seeds were shocked and quickly grabbed several left-behind instructors, and said with a bitter face: "What's the difference between going to the battlefield like this and dying?"

"Why……"

The left-behind instructor swept the dozens of pitiful seeds, and finally sighed reluctantly: "Who made us have the same roots and origins, and they are all Chinese? In this way... bring all foreign guns and practice while marching. As long as you can endure hardships, you will probably be able to skillfully use the rifle when you arrive in Mexico!"

"real?"

The seeds were overjoyed, and then asked with a little hesitation: "Will this arms consumption be too large?"

In China, they have heard of Beiyang military training. Foreign guns and bullets are expensive. New recruits don’t touch the wooden model for a year or two, and want to touch the real gun? No way!

The left-behind instructor showed a disdainful look and snorted: "How can we train a strong soldier without consuming arms? Let me tell you, the Expeditionary Army lacks everything. It means it is not short of supplies! It is not short of money! Your subordinates, if we practice guns, we can go bankrupt, hey, I will cut my head to everyone as a ball!"

You are rich, listen to this tone, that dragon is really not a very rich person!

The seeds were envious and happy: the richer the better. Such a sucker would kill him if the time was right in the future, and he would be able to get enough fat and oil!

In this way, more than 600 "confidants" sent by Emperor Guangxu were loaded with guns, ammunition, food and supplies the next day. They left the army camp with more than 100 new recruits from the left-behind instructors and the expeditionary army, and marched southward.

"These stupid pigs still have a few scruples. I know that I can keep a small half of them, but... the difference is just to die sooner or later!" The left-behind instructor looked back at the military camp that gradually disappeared from sight, and his heart sneered.

It turned out that although the seeds who were full of knowledge decided to offer a "vote letter", they still left a small number of confidant troops stationed in the army camp, which was called "guarding the base camp for Savi and accepting new recruits."

The left-behind instructor didn't say anything, just watched coldly and let the seeds go to trouble.

After leaving the San Francisco area and entering the deserted area, the left-behind instructors led the group of newcomers with braids and started hell-style training. Here, the left-behind instructors suggested that these people shave their braids, but they were strongly opposed by these loyal Qing people, and they would rather die than shave their tails! The left-behind instructors just smiled and did not persuade them again.

It’s good to keep it. When you clean it up, you will even save the effort of marking it.

The left-behind instructors did not hide it in training. A black rifle was fired and a box of yellow bullets were loaded. The Qing people who had never touched other guns in their lives except their crotch could not close their mouths, and their saliva fell. They all thought to themselves: Hey, I am also the one who has a foreign gun!

The left-behind instructor stipulates that each person must shoot 100 bullets a day. If they do not meet this number, they will reduce meals during the day and practice at night! Those who beat more will also receive rewards!

As a result, the wild animals at the junction of the United States and Mexico have been in trouble for eight lifetimes.

With the tempering of real guns and real ammunition, these newcomers grew up very quickly. When they joined the Mexican Expeditionary Force, they had already transformed themselves. Not to mention sharpshooters, but they also had the performance of the guns clearly and could go to battle and kill the enemy!

Gao Tianyang had already received news and was intimate. The first thing he did after receiving this group of people was to break up all of them. No matter if you are one of the 56 seeds, or the slaves and personal soldiers below, they were all reorganized into the existing camps, platoons, and squads, and they were treated equally and were not allowed to have privileges.

The seeds have high culture and good knowledge. Gao Tianyang's move was written in military books in the past, called "Differentiation of small groups", suppression and enlistment, and deprived of military power. This made them with lofty ambitions strongly opposed it on the spot, and even almost had a conflict with the people brought by Gao Tianyang.

However, Gao Tianyang's soldiers have experienced many battles and are full of evil spirits. The seeds' soldiers have only recently killed some hares and wild deer, and have seen some blood. Compared with the momentum of the two, they are not on the same level. In previous hell-style training, the left-behind instructors made a special arrangement to consume the bullets plundered by the seeds. Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, the seeds still chose to surrender.

Gao Tianyang did not force people too much. The seeds were dissatisfied, so he even gave them several platoon leaders and gave them the position of squad leaders, but the main body of more than 600 people was eventually broken up and integrated into the expeditionary army.

After integrating, Gao Tianyang arranged for the political commissar of the Longlin Party to take action and began a "brainwashing" education for these Qing people, and distinguished from them which ones can be taken for themselves and which ones are stubborn! After all, Emperor Guangxu had worked hard to send such a group of people over. If Qinghong didn't ask, he would slaughter them all in one breath, would Master Long not be able to explain it?

After seven days of brainwashing, the results were a bit miserable. Less than 100 out of more than 600 people had hope of being convinced, and the rest were all loyalists of the Qing Dynasty! Especially those domestic slaves of the bannermen, they were smelly and hard. Not only did they not cooperate with brainwashing, they even formed cliques to try to anti-brainwash the political commissars!

Gao Tianyang had read the report of the political commissars and was not very surprised: If it weren't for the loyalty, the little emperor wouldn't have sent them to take over an army...

Since it is difficult to convince, I can only raise the butcher's knife and plow it all over again! Gao Tianyang will never frown when he does things that are beneficial to the young master and Huaxia Town.

To Li Qing, Gao Tianyang would certainly not do it simply and roughly, so killing people with a knife became the best choice!

Just at this moment, news came from Savi that Diaz hoped that the Expeditionary Force and the Mexican government forces would cooperate to launch a general attack on the rebels in the rainforest. Savi was inquiring tone, and Gao Tianyang turned his eyes and immediately sent a message back: Agree!

So, a planned defeat was destined! After this battle, more than 500 diehard elements were buried in the rain forest. The seeds were greatly damaged and completely lost their voice!

After the results of the battle were passed back, the few remaining seeds that did not go to the army could not believe their ears: What, almost all the troops were wiped out? Those who died were still their own confidants?

When the bad news was confirmed, these seeds almost fainted without regret. Although they woke up and guessed that this might be Gao Tianyang's "cleaning" plan, they were mute and could not ask Gao Tianyang for an explanation.

Why?

Because before launching the general attack, in order to seize the credit, these seeds volunteered to go out to war with Gao Tianyang. In their opinion, the rebels are so weak, and this time there are 3,000 regular Mexican troops to help. Isn’t this credit like pinching a snail with three fingers, and taking ten points is sure to get it?

But who would have thought that a crushing defeat completely shattered their fantasies!

After the 'defeated defeat', Gao Tianyang took the opportunity to get angry. Not only did he pick up the few remaining seeds, but he also ordered them to summon the people left in San Francisco to "replenish" the troops. Although these seeds knew that Gao Tianyang might have to kill them all, the power difference between the two sides was too great, so in order to save their lives, he had to do as he said.

Just as several seeds were anxious and pinched their fingers and waited for the end of the world to come, unexpectedly, the Expeditionary Force launched another attack on the rainforest!

The ending of this battle is exactly like two people one day and one place, compared to the previous "defeat".

In the depths of the rainforest, dozens of miles apart from Yan and Mao, Gao Tianyang was wearing a dark green camouflage command uniform and was leading a team of soldiers to clean the battlefield. The corpses on the ground were covered with bullet marks and blood stains, and he couldn't help but moan. It was obvious that an extremely tragic exchange of fire had just happened.

The Expeditionary Force obviously won, otherwise Gao Tianyang would not have shown his figure in a swagger. You should know that the camouflage on his body was specially designed for the rainforest war. If he hid in the jungle, even his own people would not be able to find it.

Unfortunately, the number of such clothing is limited, and it is currently only distributed to instructors such as Gao Tianyang and this team of elite soldiers.

Seeing that the soldiers were almost cleaned, Gao Tianyang and several instructors smiled, then turned to a man with a shiver and shivering braids, and asked, "Qian Beile, your face doesn't seem to look very good. Are you scared by the sneak attack just now?"

Qian Beile, whose full name is Qian Qiu, is one of the 20 bannermen seeds. The last time he lost a "miserable defeat", he escaped by chance. This time, he and several surviving seeds entered the rain forest with Gao Tianyang, the elite team, to attack the rebels.

Qian Beile shook his head and quickly replied: "There are high instructors here. These Mexican rebels are like native chickens and tiles, which are vulnerable. I, I... I... I have anything to worry about."

Gao Tianyang smiled and said, "Native chickens and tiles? Then ask Qian Beile to tell me why he suffered a crushing defeat when he attacked the rain forest last time? Is it because of insufficient weapons and equipment, or is it other reasons?"

Qian Beile cursed in her stomach: Last time she suffered a crushing defeat, you didn’t explain any tactics. We brothers who had only killed hares and dogs, holding guns and rushed into the rain forest stupidly. Isn’t it because we are seeking death?

Qian Beile followed this attack throughout the whole process. Although he did not fire a single shot, he could see clearly: in the rainforest, the expeditionary army was very good at using terrain to hide itself and kill the enemy, and various small cooperation and small tactics emerged one after another, which made Qian Qiu amazed. The last big killing weapon, several large-caliber land war artillery, was pushed out, and the rebels were defeated thousands of miles away.

This made Qian Beile regret that he wanted to die, and he hated Gao Tianyang for so much that he wanted to die: There are exquisite tactics, why didn’t you teach my brother? He obviously had a cannon, why didn’t we take him with him last time! You, you are a clear pit!

"Don't call me Baylor. I know, after this battle, I will lose my life!"

Qian Qiu smiled bitterly, raised his head and said simply: "Instructor Gao, both Chinese, why are he forced to do this?"

Qian Qiu has the highest status among the few remaining seeds, so as soon as he said this, the rest of them were ashamed and shed tears in sadness and fear.

Gao Tianyang said in surprise: "Why did Qian Beile say this? The rebels are at their end. With our protection, will Qian Beile still be hit by... stray bullets?"

Qian Qiu shook his head, suddenly knelt on the ground, spread the braids on his head, and kowtowed three times to Gao Tianyang and several instructors: "Instructor Gao, no secret words! This time we came to America in the name of the emperor, and the things were not very authentic! But we were also punished. More than 500 brothers, all of them were buried here, and the bodies were not allowed to return to their territory... Instructor Gao also asked Gao to give up his hands. After taking Qian Qiu's life today, let's spare the hundreds of people who were rushing to come!"

As soon as Qian Qiu knelt down, the other people also knelt down and said in unison: "I wish to exchange my life for... those hundreds of people! Please don't kill everyone in the high school instructor!"

Seeing this, Gao Tianyang put away his smile, looked cold and said nothing.
