Fourteen semi-automatic rifles fired almost at the same time, including sharpshooters like Zhou Wen, Zuo Mingqing, Zhou Mingyuan, Ergazi and Li Hu. The outcome of this group of traitors and puppet soldiers can be imagined.
There was no sound of gunfire, only the whizzing bullets continued to take away one life after another. Some puppet soldiers did not even have time to figure out the direction in which the bullets were flying, and they fell to the ground and died like fools.
Those war horses have a keener sense of danger. There are war horses that are frightened and start running around, but the bullets really seem to have eyes. They just run towards people. There are even a few who react quickly and want to rely on the bodies of the war horses.
The puppet army officer who was hiding his figure was no exception. He was just shot twice more.
Twenty seconds passed in an instant, and the lakeside fell into silence. The air above the lake seemed to condense at this moment, making people and horses unable to breathe.
Of course, everyone by the lake is dead, so naturally they can't breathe.
However, the war horses were frightened by the smell of blood in the air and did not dare to neigh. Instead, they snorted uneasily, raised their necks high, and observed the surrounding situation vigilantly.
37 corpses of different shapes were scattered on the small grassland by the lake. The blood slowly seeped into the green grass, flowed slowly, and finally flowed into the clear lake like rainwater along the terrain. So,
The lake water also gradually changed color.
At a height of 300 meters away, Zhou Wen and the others were like fifteen sculptures, all holding their guns and standing upright and motionless, still vigilantly observing the situation below.
After about a minute, after making sure that all the puppet troops below were dead, Zhou Wen led his team members and slowly walked towards the lake.
At this time, Tallig ran up with heavy breathing.
Then, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
No gunshots were heard, and no one was left alive. The commander, who was full of majesty and aura of superiority in the hearts of these big-headed soldiers, and his fierce and elite guards were now lying in a mess a few hundred meters away.
on the grassland.
Like those inconspicuous weeds in the wilderness, they died silently.
Zhou Wen looked at Talig who was in a daze and joked with a smile: "Why, are you an old officer who can't bear to part with you?"
"No, no, no, it's just... I just didn't expect it to be so fast." Tallig explained incoherently, but the shock in his heart could not be calmed down. What happened in front of him was unimaginable and full of doubts.
Could it be that sir, they just stood on this high place and shot all the 30 people by the lake?
That's a distance of more than 300 meters. It takes a lot of accurate marksmanship to hit the target at such a long distance and so fast. Tallig felt that even if he had the same number of men, it would be impossible to hit the target at a distance of tens of meters.
All these people were shot to death in such a short period of time.
But now, there are more than a dozen of these sharpshooters who are unique in the prairie. How is this possible?
However, when he followed Zhou Wen and the others to the lake to clean the battlefield and gather their horses, his shock not only did not subside, but intensified again and again.
Because he found that none of the 37 horses, including Li Shouxin's horse Baiyun, was shot, not even scratched, which was simply unbelievable.
You must know that Li Shouxin and others were resting and drinking water by the river. Dozens of people and dozens of horses were mixed together. As a result, all the people died, but the horses were not harmed at all. Do bullets have eyes?
At this time, the members of the two groups were of course aware of Talig's shock and confusion. They even noticed that Tallig looked at them as if they were monsters, but no one came forward to explain.
They have long been accustomed to this kind of look from others. It was the same during the Central Plains War, the Songhu Anti-Japanese War, and the Great Wall frontline not long ago.
They are different from others. They are the unique special forces in the world. They are invincible troops. This kind of look is an encouragement and a kind of pride for them. At the same time, it is also a silent and invisible show off, which makes them feel happy.
It's incredible.
…
That night, the entire mercenary group marched into the undefended city of Duolun.
As for the regiment left behind by Li Shouxin, they had long seen that the situation was not good, and led the bandits to surrender and ran towards the depths of the grassland.
The Qianbahao infantry didn't pose much of a threat, so Zhou Wen didn't take it to heart and had no intention of chasing them.
So what if we catch up? It's just one or two thousand more prisoners. The thousands of prisoners Zhou Wen has captured now are enough to give him a headache. How can he dare to cause trouble?
Contrary to Zhou Wen's expectation, those who welcomed the army into the city were not officials from the National Government, but several senior lamas from the famous temple located in the north of the city, Huizong Temple.
Huizong Temple was built during the Kangxi period. Emperor Kangxi held an alliance here with the Forty-Eight Princes of Inner Mongolia and the Three Tribes of Outer Mongolia to determine the territory of the Qing Dynasty's northern Xinjiang. It was known as the "Kangxi Alliance" in history, and ordered the construction of "Huizong Temple". Yongzheng
Five years later, the "Shanyin Temple" was built, making Duolun the center of Tibetan Lamaism in the Mongolian region of northern China and a famous religious and cultural holy place.
Therefore, Duolun County has been a city outside the Great Wall jointly managed by the local government and Tibetan Buddhist lamas since the late Qing Dynasty.
Tibetan Buddhism has a great influence among ordinary people in Duolun and surrounding areas, and has a long history.
Over the past few hundred years, the nominal managers of the ancient city of Duolun have changed one after another, but Huizong Temple has always stood in the north of the city. Lamas have been preaching on this grassland for generations, and at the same time they have quietly influenced the people of Hezong and the People's Republic of China.
control this city.
Therefore, in the absence of government officials, it was appropriate for the lama of Huizong Temple to welcome the new occupiers into the city.
The purpose of Huizong Temple is also very clear. First, it is to promote its impartial and independent status to newcomers, and at the same time, it is also to show its existence.
Secondly, it is a means of self-protection. As the saying goes, don’t hit the smiling person. We have sent a highly respected lama to greet you, so you can’t send troops into the temple to harm us, right?
In fact, no matter which faction the rulers of Duolun were in history, they all knew the status of Huizong Temple on the prairie. They were not very twitchy people, and generally they would not go to too many places to offend the lamas of the temple, unless you
I want to become the street rat that everyone shouts and beats on the grassland.
Zhou Wen listened to the lama's conversation in half-baked Chinese at the gate of the city. He felt confused and didn't understand the reason. He didn't understand Buddhism, so he asked Miaohua to communicate with the lamas.
You must know that Miaohua is a genuine monk. Although Chinese Buddhism and Tibetan Buddhism are different in many aspects, Zhou Wen is a Buddhist believer. There must be harmony and common ground, and it is of course better to have Miaohua appear.
