Chapter 910 The Living Sacrifice
The Tibetans are also nomadic tribes. Although their cavalry and archery skills are not as good as the Mongolian cavalry, they are not bad. Seeing that the Qing army is chasing after them, they refuse to sit still and shoot back with bows and arrows. To deter the Qing army from chasing and killing, it is a pity that the wish is good, but the reality is cruel. The Qing army never planned to fight hand-to-hand with Bagongga and others, so they rode their horses and hanged more than [-] years after the rout. In terms of distance, it happened to be outside the range of the cavalry bow. No matter how many Tibetan soldiers bent their bows and shot randomly, it was difficult for the Qing army. On the contrary, the cavalry guns in the hands of the Qing army fired from time to time, just like shooting targets. The training was mediocre, and the soldiers of the Tibetan army who were scurrying in front were shot off their horses one by one.

"Okay, stop playing, let me kill that old boy's horse!"

After some chasing and fighting, all the fleeing Tibetan soldiers were shot and killed on the spot, and only Bagongga was left desperately beating his horse and fleeing wildly. Seeing this, He Rong obviously did not intend to make such a fuss again. The cat-and-mouse game was going on, and with a smirk, he raised his hand and gave the order loudly.

"Bah, bah, bah..."

In fact, the soldiers of the Qing army could shoot Bagongga off the horse a long time ago. The reason why they didn't rush to do it was just to tease him. Now that Rong had given the order, the cavalry stopped making noise and raised their lances one after another, aiming at the horse under Bagongga's crotch, they shot randomly, and instantly beat the unlucky horse to death. up the sieve.

"I surrender, I surrender..."

The galloping horse wailed and fell to the ground. The unprepared Bagong Gadang was thrown out by the inertia, and turned a few somersaults on the grass. His nose and tears covered his face in pain, but he stood still. Still not giving up, he jumped up and staggered forward again. However, the speed of his two legs could not compare with the horses under the Qing army's crotch. After running a few steps, he was already captured by the Qing army soldiers. Surrounded in groups, facing the ferocious soldiers of the Qing army, Bagongga lost the slightest desire to resist, his legs and feet softened, he fell to his knees, and shouted at the top of his voice.

"Give this bastard back to me!"

He Rong glanced at Gongga contemptuously, spit thick phlegm on the ground in disgust, and gave an order with extreme disdain. Several Qing soldiers got off their horses and rushed forward, tying up Bagongga. After eating a big rice dumpling, they slipped onto the horse, and the group headed for their camp with a roar...

"Report, General, the prince is here, and he is less than two miles away from my camp."

After successfully capturing Xining City, Yue Zhongqi was not in a hurry to launch an offensive against the other rebel Tibetan tribes, but first stationed in Xining City. Although the morale of the army has been greatly boosted by the successive victories, the troops are already exhausted, and it is not suitable for a hasty battle. Moreover, Yue Zhongqi has another concern, that is, the handling of the Waixieersu Department. There was already a secret order on Hongqing's side, but after all, it was a major event involving thousands of lives, Yue Zhongqi couldn't help but have a lot of scruples, and she didn't dare to take such a ruthless hand easily, but sent a secret letter with Feiying, to Hongqing, who was near Xunhua, asked for instructions on where to go, but he never thought that just a day later, a sentry came to report that Hongqing had arrived, which really surprised Yue Zhongqi, and he didn't even care about asking If he didn't go up, he hurriedly ordered all the generals above the battalion to wait at the gate of the camp.

"The last general is waiting to kowtow to the prince!"

Although the distance of two miles is not short, it is only a short time for galloping war horses. Just after Yue Zhongqi and the others gathered outside the camp, Hong Qing led more than a thousand personal guards The horse approached, upon seeing this, Yue Zhongqi and the others did not dare to neglect in the slightest, they all hurriedly went forward, paying respects in unison.

"Forget it, let's all be flat."

In just ten days, several armies have progressed extremely smoothly. The rebel tribes in the west and south of Qinghai have been wiped out, and the chasing army composed of the First Cavalry Division and the First Division of the Second Army has also entered In the Qaidam Basin, Luobuzangdanjin was defeated one after another and fought back several times desperately, forcing Luobuzangdanjin to be unable to hold his ground, and he had to lead more than a thousand remnants to go straight to the Junggar Khanate. Within two days, the Qing army could stabilize the situation in Qaidam, thus achieving the strategic goal of quickly calming down Qinghai. Because of this, Hong Qing was in a good mood, and her voice was particularly warm .

"Thank you, Lord Long!"

Hearing Hong Qing shout, thanking you is the meaning of the question, the generals naturally dare not be rude.

"Come up!"

As soon as the generals stood up, Hong Qing raised her hands and shouted, and immediately two guards came out from behind carrying a big box, put it on the ground, and lifted the lid to reveal the inside The things in the box are astonishingly half a box of silver bills and half a box of silver ingots. It seems that there are hundreds of thousands of taels to say the least, which made all the generals dumbfounded.

"If you fought well in the battle on the North Road, you should be rewarded. The court will never lose the meritorious officials. Dongmei, the 18 taels of silver here is what you deserve, and you will be rewarded according to the merits. Let’s go down, this king should have a good drink with the soldiers of the three armies today.”

Seeing that all the generals were stunned on the spot, Hong Qing couldn't help laughing, and gave the reward order with pride, which immediately made all the generals burst into cheers.

"The prince rewards you so much, the general will be in fear."

Yue Zhongqi knew Hongqing's heroism early in the morning, but she never expected that there would be so many rewards. She was excited, but also a little apprehensive, nothing else, although the fight was very smooth, but the buttocks were not wiped clean—— - A secret order had been issued on Hongqing's side, but Yue Zhongqi still didn't dare to do the family extermination, so she couldn't help worrying that Hongqing would be dissatisfied.

"You have paid for it with your life. There is nothing to be afraid of. Let's not talk about it. This king is here today. Apart from having a good drink with his brothers, he has other important things to do. Thank you to those who were captured." Where are the rebellious dignitaries of the Ersu tribe now?"

Hong Qing is such a shrewd person, she knew exactly what Yue Zhongqi was worried about at a glance, but she didn't care too much, she waved her hand to signal Yue Zhongqi not to be too polite, and then went straight to the point.

"Returning to the prince, all the rebellious dignitaries and more than [-] of their families are all imprisoned in Xining City, the last general, the last general..."

When Hong Qing really asked about the secret order, Yue Zhongqi's heart sank, but she didn't dare not answer, so she could only explain a few words, but the more she said, the more guilty she felt. I can't say anything after that.

"Well, Zhao Qinshan and the other three heroes mentioned in your battle report are all buried now?"

Hong Qing didn't care about Yue Zhongqi's faltering performance, nor did she pursue her behavior of not following the secret order, but just said quietly, and then changed the topic.

"My lord, the time is running short. Although Mr. Zhao and the others have already been buried, it is too late to build a tomb. Therefore, the coffin is still in the Guandi Temple in the city for the people in the city to worship."

Seeing that Hongqing didn't seem to pursue her own fault, Yue Zhongqi's tense heartstrings were a little relaxed, but she didn't dare to take it lightly, and hurriedly explained a sentence cautiously.

"Well, pass on my king's order, the three armies will gather at the Guandi Temple, and all the rebellious dignitaries and their families will be escorted to the front of the temple and beheaded. This king will personally sacrifice the three heroes!"

When Hong Qing came to Xining, rewarding the three armies was just a incidental matter. What he really wanted to do was live sacrifices. What he needed was to establish rules based on this, and use the bloody facts to warn the latecomers and deter the rest of the rebellious Tibetan tribes. The second and more important thing is to set an uncompromising precedent for future generations to deal with possible terrorist incidents. Even if this action may attract countless criticisms, or even be criticized by the people in the court, Hong Qing I don't hesitate.

"Ah, this..., chirp!"

Hearing Hong Qing's order, Yue Zhongqi couldn't help being startled, the corners of her mouth twitched a few times, she was about to say something, but when she saw Hong Qing's cold and stern eyes, she didn't dare to say any more, He hurriedly bowed and agreed.

"Enter the city!"

As the matter was settled, Hong Qing didn't say any more, and didn't plan to go to the camp to rest. As soon as she turned over, she got on the horse, waved her hand proudly, and gave the order, and then didn't care what Yue Zhongqi and the others did. With this reaction, he led nearly a thousand guards under him and galloped to Xining City not far away.

"Master, more than 2000 people, are you really killing them like this?"

"Yes, Master, killing so many people in one go, will it be..."

"Master, my lord..."

……

Hong Qing walked gracefully, but the generals of the First Division were all stunned on the spot. After waiting until Hong Qing had already led his troops far away, she came to her senses and surrounded Yue Zhongqi. It was obvious that the generals were quite puzzled by Hong Qing's order, which is not surprising. After Yue Zhongqi received the secret order, apart from communicating with He Min, the commander of the First Cavalry Division, He never revealed it to the generals below, and the big guy was not prepared at all, so he was shocked and inexplicable when he encountered this suddenly.

"Where did so much nonsense come from, let me go to each department, gather all the troops, and hurry to the city!"

Yue Zhongqi guessed the intention behind Hong Qing's actions, but he didn't want to explain too much at the moment. It's really not the generals' turn to meddle in such important matters as the national policy. It was him, Yue Zhongqi himself, and he was not qualified to speak out. In this case, pretending to be confused became Yue Zhongqi's only choice. He would not explain the reason to the generals at this time, but put on a straight face and was angry. The ground scolded.

"twitter!"

Seeing that Yue Zhongqi's expression was not right, the generals didn't dare to say any more, they hurriedly complied with the promise, and each returned to the headquarters. After rectifying the soldiers and horses, they also rushed to Xining City in a hurry...
