Chapter 623: Labor for Arms

Ma Qi led a large army to aid Ma Fuxiang, and left his confidant Ma Lu in Xining and put him in charge of guarding his hometown. Ma Lu thought it was an idle errand, but he didn't expect the army to come to the door.

He had just blackmailed a wealthy businessman and robbed a pair of young sisters, the eldest sixteen and the younger fourteen, holding two little beauties, Ma Lu tossed for a night, the sun had already risen, and he was still sleeping.

At this moment, suddenly there was a shout of killing outside, which was earth-shattering, Ma Lu turned over suddenly, got up, and before he could put on his clothes, the adjutant rushed in.

"Oh no, Feng Yuxiang's men and horses have come in!"

"Nonsense, isn't he going to attack Ningxia, how could he kill here?"

When the adjutant saw Ma Lu, who was naked and his eyes widened, he also felt a burst of horror, and hurriedly said: "My lord, the little one is not lying, you listen to the shouts and killings outside." ”

Ma Lu finally sobered up a little at this time, he hurriedly let go of the adjutant, put on his clothes in a panic, and then hurriedly ran outside, and he couldn't care about the two little beauties on the bed.

As soon as he ran out, he heard an earth-shattering loud noise from the east side, and the city walls rumbled, and all of them collapsed, and the dust rose dozens of meters into the air.

Countless soldiers were fleeing everywhere, and the city was full of routs, and Ma Lu rushed forward and shot in succession, killing three deserters.

"Listen to the, don't let the Han dogs enter the city, they want to exterminate the species and the sect, and those who don't want their wives and children to be occupied will follow Lao Tzu and rush up and drive the Han dogs out!"

Just as Ma Lu was shouting loudly, a rout soldier happened to run in front of him, and Ma Lu's eyes showed a fierce light, and he immediately drew his saber. A knife slashed at the opponent's head, and because of the force, the deserter was split in half.

Brains, blood, and internal organs were all over Ma Lu, and he was like a little imp from hell, and the soldiers around him were all afraid, and they had to stop and fight back under Ma Lu's command.

He Zhuguo is leading the soldiers of the Feng army. Rush into the city. Although he only brought two companies of soldiers, these men were undoubtedly the main force in the battle. Feng Yuxiang's subordinates had a serious reduction in combat effectiveness after a long march, and only the well-trained Feng army could still maintain their combat effectiveness.

It was Wu Keren who commanded the troops. Use twenty blasters to blast the walls apart. A gateway was opened to the follow-up troops. He Zhuguo led the troops to rush to the front. They were all armed with submachine guns, and their firepower was absolutely overwhelming compared to the Ma Jiajun, and the people were killed in patches, the corpses were everywhere, and the blood stained the streets and houses red.

He Zhuguo when they were charging. Suddenly, the number of enemy troops in front of him increased greatly, and they were rushing towards this side, and he hurriedly gave the order: "Hide in place, machine guns and mortars ready!" ”

Ma Lu and his men and horses happened to collide with the Feng army that was killing and rushing. He didn't know the identity of the opponent, but he only knew that this group of people had the fastest impact speed and killed the most Ma Jiajun, so he rushed over with his men and horses.

can get Ma Qi's attention, Ma Lu is also a fierce general, and when he saw his subordinates being killed and fleeing in disarray, his eyes were red.

"Rush for me, kill all the Han dogs!"

Ma Jiajun, driven by him, also rushed towards the Feng army, and the dense crowd was like a tide, along the streets, and even the houses on both sides, swooping towards the Feng army.

Boom Boom Boom ...... Boom Boom Boom ......

Seeing that Ma Jiajun entered the firing range, the mortar roared, and the shells exploded in the ranks of Ma Jiajun like hail. With each explosion, several or even a dozen people were killed and injured, fragments of corpses burst out in all directions, and the seriously injured soldiers were constantly wailing, and the whole scene seemed to be the end of the world.

However, although there were heavy casualties, these Ma family soldiers were quite brave, according to their philosophy, dying in battle does not mean the end, but just returning to the arms of the Lord, so they don't care about their own lives at all, and they don't care about other people's. Of course, this is just to incite the people at the bottom, and none of the upper echelons of Ma Jiajun are willing to die.

In the face of the Ma Jiajun who was still surging, He Zhuguo was of course not polite, and the four heavy machine guns they carried all opened fire, forming a dense network of crossfire.

The machine gunner didn't even need to aim, as long as he held down the trigger, people were constantly killed, and the bullet casings kept hitting each other, like a melody of urgency, and in an instant, hundreds of Ma Jiajun were killed on the spot, and the battlefield completely turned into a one-sided massacre.

Ma Lu finally felt a trace of fear, and he hurriedly ordered the soldiers to make a detour from both sides and attack the flanks of the Feng army, trying to encircle the opponent. However, it was clear that he was wishful thinking, and just as they were rushing along the alley towards the Feng army, several tongues of fire suddenly erupted from the streets on both sides.

The huge flames pounced on them mercilessly, engulfing them all, and the burned soldiers kept beating the flames. But these flames are different from other things, they can't be extinguished at all, and the more they are fought, the more they are fought, and wherever they hit, they catch fire.

Some of the soldiers in unbearable pain simply lay on the ground, rolling back and forth, but this did not help, and it did not take long for them to completely turn into a pile of charcoal.

There are also people who have been burned and confused, they are crazy to rush towards their own people, more and more Ma Jiajun is stained with fire, and the raging flames engulf them all. The sound of crying dad and shouting for mom made people feel horror from the bottom of their hearts, and even those who used these weapons felt fear.

Of course, this is not an excuse for softness, Wu Keren continued to command the soldiers, using flamethrowers to constantly devour the Ma family's army. The impact of the fire on morale is quite huge, they can not be afraid of death, but they can't not be afraid of being burned alive, so the Ma Jiajun also had a rout.

Ma Lu split two people in a row, but it had no effect, and more and more people began to scatter and flee. Ma Lu could only follow these people to the rout, and He Zhuguo saw that Ma Lu wanted to run, where would he let him go, and hurriedly commanded the soldiers to pursue.

As they ran, two gunshots rang out on the side of the street, and one of the soldiers fell to the ground. The others hurriedly looked for the source of the gunshots, and they rushed into a courtyard, but there was no violent gunshots, and He Zhuguo was also a little surprised, so he hurriedly rushed in.

When he saw the situation in the courtyard, He Zhuguo was also shocked, it turned out that it was not a soldier from the Ma family army who shot him, but a thin and withered old man, followed by a middle-aged woman and two and a half children. The woman and the child had kitchen knives and shovels in their hands.

Facing a group of old and weak women and children, the soldiers of the Feng army were also a little stunned, not knowing what to do, at this time, the old man was thinking of strange things in his mouth, and his eyes seemed to be about to pop out. He aimed the rifle in his hand at Feng Jun and was about to shoot.

At this time, He Zhuguo shook his hand and shot it. It hit the old thing right in the head. Suddenly, a thousand peach blossoms bloomed. The women and children behind him were also taken aback, but instead of backing down, they rushed towards them with their teeth and claws.

He Zhuguo was also unceremoniously, holding a pistol and shooting at them fiercely. The other soldiers also reacted and shot all three of them indiscriminately. Although they were killed, the Feng army was still a little frightened. I really don't understand how these old and weak women and children can be so fierce and able to sneak attack and kill.

He Zhuguo's face was solemn, and he said loudly: "Brothers, all of them have their eyes open, these people are all fanatics, we are heretics, we are devils, and we should all be killed." Tell everyone, don't treat them as ordinary people, as long as you dare to shoot at the soldiers, all of them will be treated as enemies, and no one will be left! ”

This order was issued in a very timely manner, in fact, not only the Feng army, but even Feng Yuxiang's subordinates also encountered these situations, obviously the Ma family army was defeated, but from the houses on both sides of the street, cold guns came from time to time, and some people dressed in ordinary clothes attacked with earthen guns and shotguns, and even large knives and spears.

Caught off guard, many soldiers were injured and even died for unknown reasons. Feng Yuxiang also got the report, he was also very angry, Feng Yuxiang directly issued an order, requiring the people of the whole city to be searched out, screened, if it is a Han Chinese, it will be overturned, if it is other races, all of them will be imprisoned, and whoever dares to oppose it will be killed directly.

The siege force advanced smoothly, and after most of the day, at dusk, the whole of Xining fell under control, and more than an hour earlier, Ma Lu had already fled to the northwest with more than a hundred remaining men.

Qingma's base camp completely fell under Feng Yuxiang's control, he first searched the whole city, wiped out all the remnants, and then any home, as long as there were religious items to prove that they were among them, they were all arrested and sent to the prisoner of war camp.

After this battle, they killed more than 3,000 Ma Jiajun, captured more than 5,000, and more than 23,000 people of different races, all of whom were arrested.

In the face of many captives, Feng Yuxiang was still very happy, Zhang Tinglan had already contacted him, and wanted to recruit some laborers from the northwest to build a railway. Zhang Tinglan also said that Feng Yuxiang would be given a certain amount of compensation according to the amount collected, which could be cash or arms.

During the siege, Feng Yuxiang also learned that although these people of different races and pagan religions lived together on Chinese soil, there were quite radicals among them, and they were alienated from China, especially hateful to the Han Chinese.

This kind of person is definitely a time bomb in his hands, and the risk is not small, and the most haode way is to give them all to the Feng army and exchange them for arms and funds. According to the habit of the Feng army, these people can definitely buy a good price.

Feng Yuxiang thought of this, and immediately found his subordinate Shi Yousan, and said to him: "Han Zhang, you immediately take the men and horses, and sweep all the areas around Xining for me, all the militia groups of the Ma family army are arrested, if you see young and strong laborers, don't let them go, all of them are arrested, how many, how much!" ”

Shi Yousan hurriedly asked: "Dashuai, these people are quite fierce, I think it is better to slaughter them cleanly, so as to save trouble." ”

"Nonsense, slaughter them, who will give us arms, Fengtian told me a long time ago, to recruit a large number of laborers to build the railway, but they are not in vain, they can exchange labor for arms, this is a good deal, you must do a good job."

Shi Yousan rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Dashuai, since this is the case, I will carry it out immediately, but Fengjun is sure that as long as he is young and middle-aged, those big girls and little daughters-in-law will definitely be useless, do you think it will also make the brothers happy?" ”

Feng Yuxiang's eyes widened, and he immediately scolded: "Biedong has crooked thoughts, the army pays attention to discipline, do you want to ruin my reputation?" ”

Facing Feng Yuxiang's sharp questioning, Shi Yousan could only retreat, but he was obviously not convinced, even if you didn't agree, he could still go his own way. Shi Yousan thought so and did so, he took the army, searched everywhere, robbed the property when he saw it, arrested the man when he met him, and the woman also made the soldiers happy, but he didn't dare to take it to the barracks, he often played happily and killed him on the spot.

Before and after the entire extermination of the Ma Jiajun, Feng Yuxiang provided a total of more than 200,000 laborers to the Feng army, and it was with these people that the Feng army was able to build the Lanxin Railway and successfully penetrate Shili deep into Xinjiang. (To be continued......)
