"Run for your life, brothers! Even if you surrender to the pirates, it doesn't matter! If only I could survive! Shi Lang asked Lin Xingzhu and his subordinates to abandon the water division and flee for their lives. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Dashuai, if you want to go together, even if you lower the pseudo-Ming together, it's better than waiting for death!" A group of generals tried hard to persuade each other.

Shi Lang smiled bitterly: "Shi has no way out!" If Shi surrendered, they would also kill him, and the emperor in the capital would kill Shi's family! The matter has come to this point, the only way to be loyal to the court is to die and give your family a way to live. But you are different, the Puppet Ming Haikou did not name your heads, you can go and lower them. ”

"Dashuai!" Lin Xingzhu, Luo Shizhen, He Yingyuan, Liu Pei, Zeng Cheng and other generals shed tears.

"Don't worry about Shi, let's go!" Shi Lang made a gesture to leave.

After Lin Xingzhu, Luo Shizhen, He Yingyuan and others knelt on the ground and bowed, Shi Lang's Chinese army camp left with tears in their eyes, but Liu Pei and Zeng Cheng refused to leave, and a group of Shi Lang's personal soldiers refused to leave.

"Why don't you leave?" Shi Lang said angrily.

Liu Pei knelt on the ground and wept bitterly: "The handsome treat us like a mountain, how can we steal our lives!" ”

"Live!" Shi Lang roared angrily, "Only if you live can you avenge this army!" Don't go yet! ”

Liu Pei and Zeng Cheng knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Shi Lang, and then wiped their tears and withdrew from the camp.

Out of the camp, Liu Pei said to Zeng Cheng: "The handsome treats me like a mountain, and now the handsome is going to be martyred, how can you and I leave the handsome and escape alone?" It's not as good as a thief! ”

Zeng Cheng nodded: "Yes!" Fight with the thieves! Although we can't persuade the big handsome, we can die in front of the big handsome! ”

The camp of the Qing army's sailors had already been on fire, the camp tents were set on fire one after another, and in a sea of fire, from time to time there were several roars of flames swelling suddenly, and several huge fireballs erupted from the fire. The fire spread to the powder magazine, and with a deafening bang, the burning camp shook violently as if it had been an earthquake.

It was the southeast wind season, and the Ming army fired artillery from the south to the north, and the first thing to ignite was the south of the camp. With the help of the wind, the fire burned all the way north.

"Let's go!"

"Minggou is coming ashore!"

"Jump into the water!"

The chaotic Qing army sailor auxiliaries panicked and ran back and forth in the blazing camp, many of whom were already on fire and fell to the ground by smoke; Others were covered by collapsed tents, and others were smashed on themselves by broken fallen logs. Many more were desperate to escape the fire, some escaped through the north gate on land, and some jumped into the water.

Liu Pei and Zeng Cheng each came to the shore with a dozen personal soldiers and untied two small boats that had not yet caught fire.

"Kill the dog!" Two small sampans rushed towards the huge Ming fleet outside the naval division's camp.

Rows of cannonballs rained down like hailstones, and countless columns of water rose from the surface of the river, and after the splashes fell, the two boats disappeared from the river without a trace, and only a pile of broken wooden planks remained on the water.

"This tartar is looking for his own death!" Liu Guoxuan said.

The Ming army released small boats to salvage Qing soldiers who had fallen into the water in the river. Those Qing soldiers who were floating and struggling on the water saw the Ming army's boat coming, and they all swam over one after another, and honestly became prisoners of the Ming army.

After passing the interrogation of the captives, Liu Guoxuan learned that Shi Lang did not escape and was still in the Chinese army camp.

A subordinate general asked puzzledly: "Shi Lang, a dog thief, didn't even want his own family in order to surrender to the Tartars back then, why didn't he run for his life today?" ”

"This dog thief also knows that he has no way to live! If he goes back, the Tartar court will kill him if he doesn't enter, and he will kill his family! Back then with us, he himself had already run away! Now he has nowhere to run! Liu Guoxuan sneered, and then gave an order: "Kill into the Tartar camp!" Be sure to find the Shi Lang dog thief! To live to see people, to die to see corpses! ”

The fire on the shore has gradually weakened, and after the Ming army landed, they entered the Qing army camp.

Shi Lang's Chinese army camp had long been burned down, and when the Ming army came to the Chinese army camp, they only found a dozen charred corpses that had been burned to charcoal and were completely unrecognizable.

"Is there the corpse of Shi Lang's dog thief here?" The Ming army escorted the captured Qing soldiers over for identification.

A Qing army officer saw the broken armor fragments on the side of a charred corpse, and then saw the helmet, as well as the waist knife and jade plate beside him, and cried: "This is our Shijun Gate." This waist card is the military gate. ”

The officer of the Ming army picked up the waist knife and the jade plate from the side of the charred corpse, looked through it in his hand, and saw a line of small characters written on the jade plate: Admiral of the Yangtze River Naval Division of the Qing Dynasty. There are also two big characters on the side, with the word Shi Lang written. Look at the waist knife again, it is a treasure knife, although the scabbard is burned out, it is obviously a good knife that ordinary people can afford.

In fact, this treasure knife that sharpens iron like clay, or a steel knife produced in Dongfan, a few knives were exported to the Qing court, and the Qing court equipped it with a good scabbard, and then inlaid with jade gems and the like, it became a treasure knife.

Liu Guoxuan, Chen Yonghua and others rushed over, saw Shi Lang's relics, and sighed: "Shi Junmen, in order to surrender the Tartars, you didn't even want your family, just to seek glory and wealth for yourself." But today, you still ended up like this! If you knew today, why bother in the first place! ”

A Ming soldier pulled out a knife and wanted to cut off Shi Lang's head, but the corpse had been burned to charcoal, becoming hard and brittle, and the knife cut it, and the blackened human head was deformed, and the soldier had no choice but to give up.

Among the prisoners of the Qing army, many officers who received Shi Lang's favor could not cry when they heard that Shi Lang was dead, and the prisoner of war camp burst into tears.

The sky gradually darkened, and on the south bank of the Yangtze River, a figure came out of the reeds by the river, and looked at the Ming soldiers who were not patrolling around, and the figure cautiously went ashore. This man was dressed in the clothes of an ordinary Qing soldier, with a money rattail on his head and a short knife at his waist. This person is none other than Shi Lang, who everyone thought was dead!

Shi Lang went ashore, waved his knife to cut off the braid on his head, and then took off the Qing soldier's clothes on his body, threw them into the river, wearing only a pair of pants that were only half cut off, and walked slowly towards the mountain with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

In fact, the charred corpse was a soldier who Shi Lang found from the barracks and was very similar to himself. People like Shi Lang can not think about the life or death of his family, but he himself refuses to die. So after he let the soldiers who refused to leave commit suicide, he went to find the corpse of a soldier, changed the corpse into his own clothes, and then threw the corpse into the big tent of the Chinese army, and then lit the big tent, but he changed into the clothes of a small soldier and slipped out.

Shi Lang jumped into the river, avoided the captured Ming boat, and swam to the south bank. He didn't dare to go back to the north, because if he went back, it would be a dead end, and it would affect his family.
