Chapter 14 Chongguan is angry
Ye Zhikui also reacted quickly. He hurriedly hid Xiao Linglong behind him and took out his revolver. He shot two times. The Japanese who jumped off the eaves were immediately shot. I don’t know if it was a piercing or something else. He rushed over with two shots, "Baga." The Japanese shouted and slashed at Ye Zhikui with one knife. Ye Zhikui kicked over with one foot. The little Japanese was already injured. He rushed up with only one breath, but now he was kicked. At the same time, the Japanese who ran out of the corner also surrounded him. Ye Zhikui pulled Xiao Linglong over and turned to Feng Guozhang and Wen Baishan and shouted: "Run quickly."
The three of them were shooting and retreating. The Japanese came quickly, and they were all fierce and not afraid of death. When they were shot, they got up and rushed back to kill. Fortunately, the other party did not have firearms. I don’t know if they were arrogant and considered to be very skilled in martial arts, or because the Qing army had investigated more severely during this period. Ye Zhikui looked down and saw that there were no bullets left in the bullet nest. Four little Japanese rolled on the ground, and three others ran over. Feng Guozhang and Wen Baishan also had no ammunition. Seeing this, they hurriedly said: "Young Master Ye, go first, let Beizhi block it for a while."
Of course Ye Zhikui would not run away alone. Seeing that there were only three left, he said, "Huafu, I will solve one of them first, and then do it according to the situation."
The three of them were all bare-handed. Before the Japanese could approach, Ye Zhikui and Feng Guozhang rushed to the nearest one. When the Japanese saw it, a hint of joy flashed across their faces. They slashed the knife forward and were about to chop Ye Zhikui's head. Ye Zhikui turned his head and turned his ruthlessness to meet his left shoulder. The Japanese slashed Ye Zhikui's shoulder with one knife.
Before he could pull it out, Feng Guozhang had already knocked him to the ground, picked up a brick from the ground and smashed it. Poor that Japanese man was actually killed by Feng Guozhang with bricks. Ye Zhikui endured the severe pain and was about to pick up the samurai sword. At this time, the two remaining Japanese people actually abandoned Wen Baishan and stabbed Ye Zhikui at the same time. Feng Guozhang was smashing people with bricks. Wen Baishan was only entangled with one person, and the other man was bent down by Ye Zhikui, and stabbed from behind with a knife. Wen Baishan shouted and said, "Young Ye, be careful, but Ye Zhikui had no time to dodge."
When he was talking, he was about to come, but he saw Xiao Linglong pounce on Ye Zhikui's back. Dai Ye Zhikui was hit by this sword. The samurai sword passed through Xiao Linglong's back through Ye Zhikui's back. It turned out that Xiao Linglong had been curled up in the corner of the wall after Ye Zhikui rushed forward. No one expected that she would suddenly rush out. Ye Zhikui felt Xiao Linglong's blood flowing behind her back. He screamed, and he slashed with his head backwards. Just under the crotch of the little Japanese, Little Japanese screamed and fell to the ground and wailed.
Feng Guozhang also reacted, abandoned the bricks, picked up the knife and rushed to the last Japanese. After fighting, the last little Japanese fell to the ground.
Ye Zhikui was covered in blood, with his own and smiling Linglong. He turned around and gently hugged Xiao Linglong in his arms and blocked her wound with clothes. Ye Zhikui was panicked. Xiao Linglong lost too much blood, his face was terrifyingly pale, his eyes gradually dissipated, and he murmured, "No one is allowed to bully uncle." Then he fell into a coma.
Feng Guozhang and Wen Baishan were both seriously injured. At this time, the little Japanese had already fallen to the ground. They also dispersed all their strength and lay motionless on the ground. Ye Zhikui hugged Xiao Linglong and called softly.
The patrol battalion rushed over after gunfire. The leader recognized it as Ye Zhikui, and was shocked. While informing him urgently, he also provided treatment.
Ye Zhikui looked at the leader with a terrifying look. He used all his strength and said, "You must save her." After that, he could no longer hold it back and fainted.
The next morning, Ye Zhikui slowly opened his eyes and saw Feng Guozhang sitting meticulously with a gauze band wrapped around his hand; there was a butcher sitting next to him. The butcher's face was gloomy, and two scars intertwined on his face, looking very ferocious. When Ye Zhikui woke up, he just squeezed out a few smiles with difficulty. Ye Zhikui moved his head and asked hurriedly: "How are Baishan and Xiaolinglong and others?"
The butcher showed a hint of worry and replied, "The little girl is still in a coma. Baishan has woken up, but her injuries are too serious and lying on the bed." Then he said, "The Grand Marshal just saw you and you left not long ago. After the torture of Bei Zhi last night, the identity of those people has been found out. They are all members of the Japanese ronin community Xuanyang Society, and they are usually mixed with Japanese expatriates."
Hearing that Xiao Linglong was still unconscious and hearing the four words of Japanese expatriates, a cold light flashed in Ye Zhikui's eyes. The Japanese had already withdrawn some expatriates before the war, and some Japanese expatriates were self-restrained. The Qing government did not dare to attack them and continued to stay in Pyongyang. In fact, there were many Japanese spies hidden among these expatriates, providing a lot of military intelligence to the Japanese army. Ye Zhikui thought it was time to clean up the scum.
"Brother Tu, the Iron Blood Thirteen Eagles have expanded too slowly, so they should speed up their pace and can expand from outside the army. Regardless of their origin, those with extraordinary skills and superpowers will absorb more, first develop peripheral members, and then investigate them." Ye Zhikui instructed.
Then he said to Feng Guozhang: "Huafu, thanks to you this time, otherwise I would have to explain it here." Seeing that Feng Guozhang was about to reply, Ye Zhikui waved his hand and said: "No need to say more, I, Ye Zhikui, suffered a great loss this time. If I can't get it back, I will not be Ye Zhikui. What should I do?"
Feng Guozhang saw Ye Zhikui's eyes showing fierce light, and knew that he would not give up. He made a decision. After thinking about it, he replied: "Mr. Ye, if you personally lead the troops to capture those Japanese expatriates, it may cause dissatisfaction among foreign countries, and the court may also scold you. He heard that the Wei commander was mean and polite, without any restraint, and often deducted military pay and plundered the troops. You can reward our soldiers with great rewards, and let the soldiers show off in front of Shengjun, and fan the flames, and guide the Sheng army to seize the Japanese. Later, you can act in chaos, provoke conflicts, and take the opportunity to kill the Japanese. At that time, the adults can get out of the matter, but also damage Wei Rugui's reputation and cause dissatisfaction in the court. And you will take the opportunity to seize the morale of the army. Wouldn't it be a kill of two birds with one stone?"
Ye Zhikui didn't expect that Feng Guozhang would offer such a vicious and experienced plan, worthy of being one of the three heroes of Beiyang. He also knew that this poisonous plan was the stepping stone that Feng Guozhang threw at him after this assassination incident, so he dared to say such a ruthless word.
Ye Zhikui looked directly at Feng Guozhang for a moment, nodded and said, "Hua Fu's plan is very wonderful. I have read the military letter of the Lord. No one in the military can surpass the Lord. I hope Hua Fu can give more advice for me in the future."
When Feng Guozhang saw Ye Zhikui nodding in agreement, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He dared to use this kind of poisonous plan to kill two birds with one stone. One is that Ye Zhikui and he had just experienced life and death together, which was called "a friend of life and death". The other is that Feng Guozhang was born in poverty and wanted to find a big tree to rely on. Although Nie Shicheng was good before, he was too old. Ye Zhikui not only had a good background, but he was in a high position at a young age. He was even more generous to the subordinates, smooth to the superiors, and cruel to the enemy. He was the best choice. If Ye Zhikui knew that Feng Guozhang looked at him like this, he would not know what to think about.
Ye Zhikui didn't want to wait for a moment. According to Feng Guozhang's plan, he first rewarded the 10,000 taels of silver he had not yet heated up, and then asked someone to show off in front of the soldiers of Sheng's army, saying that the Japanese had a lot of wealth and property, Sheng's army had the worst military discipline, and with the deducting military pay from the superiors, they were all poor and slammed. When they heard these rumors, their eyes were full of green light.
If they were to say that they even robbed the friendly Koreans, they were afraid that these Japanese would immediately start to go to the Japanese expatriate area in groups. When they saw the Japanese, they kicked in the door and robbed their property.
The Japanese were no better than the Koreans. The fire was fired first by both sides. It immediately triggered a war and a melee. The gunshots lasted for one night. That night, Pyongyang was bleeding.
Afterwards, it was counted that more than 5,000 Japanese expatriates were killed, including men, women, young and old, chickens, ducks, dogs, pigs, cockroaches, rats, etc., as long as they were related to the Japanese, they were all destroyed by humanitarian destruction. Afterwards, the soldiers of Shengjun were not satisfied and snatched their eyes red. When Wei Rugui got the news, they had already set their sights on ordinary Korean citizens. Fortunately, the general soldier of Taiyuan Town, Ye Zhikui led his troops to kill dozens of rioters, and this turmoil ended, known in history as the "Pyongyang riot". After this incident, Ye Zhikui's reputation among the soldiers and civilians of Korea was unparalleled. Even the soldiers of Shengjun were afraid of him. This man was decisive in killing people and did not recognize people when he killed them.
This incident caused riots in Japan. The Japanese clamored to pay their blood debts and threatened to kill all the Qing dynasties in Japan. The Japanese called embassies of various countries, saying that the Qing army was cruel and killed innocent people indiscriminately, which was a provocation to the international community. They deserved to be sanctioned by various countries.
The Qing court immediately responded and replied: "Occasionally, Japanese ronin caused chaos and attacked our Qing officials, and guided the Japanese expatriates to riot in Pyongyang City. Fortunately, our Qing soldiers learned about their conspiracy and were able to see through it."
Both sides held their own opinions, and the major countries did not know who they believed, and expressed neutrality. Li Hongzhang learned the inside story and called to warn Wei Rugui, saying: "The enemy's atmosphere is approaching, and if it causes chaos, your wealth, life and life will not be guaranteed. Where is my reputation?" He asked him to "try to calm the morale of the army and take into account the overall situation."
