Chapter 165: Li Xiucheng is arrested
The calm surface of the lake suddenly stirred like a mirror shattering. A civilian boat leaked, and the Taiping soldiers in the boat became restless. The bottom of the boat was still leaking and it was impossible to maintain its balance.
"Whoa!"
The boat was upside down on the lake, and the Taiping soldiers on the boat all fell into the water, constantly fluttering.
This ship is like lighting a fuse.
Immediately after, one after another civilian boats overturned, all of them like a bowl upside down in the water. One by one, the Taiping soldiers who were waiting for them were fluttering in the water, and the guns in their hands had long been thrown away. Soldiers who knew how to water hurried to avoid crowded places so as not to be squeezed into the water, while soldiers who could not know how to water yelled and tossed.
It's a pity that these soldiers are doomed to an inescapable end if they are allowed to flutter.
Li Xiucheng was extremely nervous, but his face was still calm.
He can't mess up, he doesn't dare to mess up, and once he messes up, the rowing soldiers will lose their composure.
"General, there are too many people in the ship, and it is starting to sink."
The soldier who was operating the ship suddenly said loudly, his voice trembling slightly. Li Xiucheng's eyes rolled, his eyes looked at the generals and soldiers sitting on the boat, and shouted loudly: "Jump down, jump for me!" Li Xiucheng even drew his sword and pointed it at the soldier next to him, ordering the soldier to jump into the water, thereby reducing the weight of the boat.
At the most critical moment, Li Xiucheng was only thinking about his life.
"Plop!!"
One by one, the soldiers were forced to jump into the water and swim quickly into the distance.
The weight of the boat was reduced and it immediately floated a lot.
"Whew! Call! ”
Li Xiucheng breathed a sigh of relief and ordered again: "Hurry up, speed up quickly." Li Xiucheng couldn't control the rest of the soldiers who fell into the water, even if he was full of strategy, he couldn't think of a way to save them, so he could only blindly escape.
Yang Banhou looked at the Taiping soldiers who had fallen into the water and ordered: "Marshal, give the order to shoot." ”
Lu Shaochuan said: "Dashuai, take these people prisoner." ”
Li Zhen pondered for a moment and said, "The soldiers under Li Xiucheng's command are elite, it's a pity to kill them." All the ships were ordered to retreat to the periphery and disperse to the edge of the shore of Half Moon Bay, waiting for the Taiping soldiers who had fallen into the water to come ashore and then take prisoners. ”
Yang Banhou frowned and said, "If this is the case, Li Xiucheng will easily escape." ”
Li Zhen shook his head and said, "Li Xiucheng's boat ran most of the distance, far exceeding the boat where the rest of the Taiping soldiers were. Once Li Xiucheng falls into the water, there are no more water ghosts lurking in the water, and Li Xiucheng can be easily caught. Speaking of this, Li Zhen looked at Lu Shaochuan and instructed: "Send a message to the people under the water and let them get close to Li Xiucheng's boat." ”
"Yes!" Lu Shaochuan said loudly.
Li Zhen commanded again: "Bring my gun!" ”
Suddenly, the soldier took Li Zhen's sniper rifle.
Li Zhen took the gun, loaded it, and said, "Banhou, there are four soldiers on the ship where Li Xiucheng is located. We shot the soldiers who operated the boat, and with the leakage at the bottom of the boat, Li Xiucheng must have fallen into the water. ”
Yang Banhou said: "Dashuai, I will shoot the two on the left, and the one on the right will be yours." ”
Li Zhen nodded in response, stood on the boat, and raised his gun to aim at the soldiers who were still paddling forward.
"Bang! Bang! ”
Two gunshots rang out one after another, and the soldiers who were operating the boat tilted their heads and fell on the boat.
Li Xiucheng was suddenly startled, and turned around to find that Li Zhen and Yang Banhou had shot and shot. However, Yang Banhou did not shoot him, and he must have wanted to capture him. Li Xiucheng was horrified in his heart, and hurriedly shouted: "Yang Banhou wants to kill the soldiers who operate the boat, and he can't let him succeed." Fight back, fight back quickly. After a pause, Li Xiucheng asked the dead soldiers on the boat to be thrown into the lake, and the other soldiers rowed forward.
There were forty people on Li Xiucheng's boat, and after diving, only thirteen people remained.
In addition to the four who operated the boat, there were nine people.
Li Xiucheng asked the rest of the people to shoot back, but the boat was shaky and could not stand firmly, and the bullets fired were all flying randomly, without any accuracy. Such a counterattack has no other purpose than a waste of bullets.
At this time, two more gunshots were heard. Two soldiers who specialized in boat operations fell to the ground, also losing their breath. This situation put Li Xiucheng on the verge of collapse.
Throwing the two soldiers who were operating the boat into the lake, Li Xiucheng asked the two soldiers to row forward.
The people who operate the boats are soldiers who don't know how to row.
"Click!"
One of the soldiers had a broken oar, which was broken, leaving only three soldiers to steer the boat forward.
The civilian ship lost its balance, it was difficult to move forward at full speed, and if it swayed and swayed, it could capsize at any time. Continuous gunfire rang out, and more and more soldiers died. In less than three minutes, Li Xiucheng was the only one left on the boat. Without the rowers, without the people covering the holes in the bottom of the boat, Li Xiucheng's boat slowly sank.
Li Xiucheng saw that the other party was the only one who did not kill himself, and his heart was desolate. There are more and more holes in the ship, and they are getting bigger and bigger. Li Xiucheng gritted his teeth, threw away the gun in his hand, and jumped forward again, jumping into the water.
"Whoa!"
Lee so-sung fell into the water and swam towards the shore with his arms sliding.
Seeing this, Yang Banhou smiled and said, "Dashuai, Li Xiucheng hasn't given up yet!" ”
Li Zhen smiled: "No matter how he pounces, it is a senseless struggle." ”
Lu Shaochuan smiled, and said even more unashamedly: "There is a naval army under my command, let alone one Li Xiucheng, even ten Li Xiucheng can't escape." ”
The three of you say a word, I say a word, talk and laugh.
Li Xiucheng was swimming forward desperately, and when he stretched his legs, he suddenly felt that his left and right feet were grabbed. A strong force came, pulling him back. Li Xiucheng couldn't swim anymore, his head couldn't get out of the water, his mouth and nose invaded the water, and he drank a few sips of lake water in a row, choking Li Xiucheng's face and ears rose, and his eyes were prominent.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, Li Xiucheng's head hurt and he fainted.
……
When Li Xiucheng woke up again, he was no longer in Half Moon Bay. When he opened his eyes, his vision was still a little blurry, and he found that it was dark all around him, and the air was filthy.
"Ahem! Cough! ”
Li Xiucheng coughed a few times, and his sight gradually recovered.
At this time, Li Xiucheng saw the situation clearly.
The place where he was not a fragrant and soft room, but a cold cell. An eerie and cold aura lingered in the cell, making Li Xiucheng's heart chill. Li Xiucheng looked down and found that he had changed into a prisoner's clothes. He stood up, strode to the side of the cell, and looked left and right for a while, but did not notice the generals and soldiers under his command.
"Someone, someone!"
Li Xiucheng grabbed the door of the cell, kept shaking the door, and opened his throat and yelled loudly. At this moment, Li Xiucheng is no longer the high-spirited general, but a prisoner in panic.
A moment later, there was a rush of footsteps, and the guard of the cell approached.
ps: three of the four watches; Xiaodong continued to work hard.
