C223 Capture Maylor alive (1/2)

”Protect Lord Lieutenant. Big guy, don't panic. There aren't many enemies. Form a formation to deal with them …”

”Archers, Musketeers …” Shoot them, don't f * cking run away. Are you ashamed of yourself?

”Charge forward, counterattack …” ”My children, our ancestors are watching us from the sky, please don't embarrass our Manchu …”

Countless military officers were angrily cursing the soldiers in the crowd. They were desperately pulling every single soldier around them. Small formations began to assemble one after another in the light of the fire. Some of them had hundreds of people.

”Charge! Follow me and charge!” The lieutenant has plenty of silver. A bandit's head is worth a thousand taels of silver.

The soldiers' morale was finally boosted by the money. Their dream of making a fortune stimulated them to fight bravely. The little charge in the local area did a pretty good job.

Xiao Letian didn't know that the enemy was using his private money to boost the morale, he was not interested in such a dramatic conflict. Right now, he only wanted Maylor, regardless of whether he lived or died.

The second row of class five was lucky tonight, because the hardest mission they had received was to capture Maylor alive. Under the envious gazes of the other classes, the ten warriors of class five defeated three waves of enemies with their fastest speed, and rushed to the small courtyard Maylor was residing in.

”After the soldiers kicked open the study door, they found that there was no one at the center table. The class monitor reached out his hand to touch the mahogany chair.” ”It's warm, I didn't run far so I need to hurry and search …” Ten soldiers began to search the rooms one by one.

Maylor lived in a typical northern courtyard house. Not only was there a private kitchen, there were even two concubines inside.

The soldiers searched the small courtyard from room to room, but they didn't find anything. Other than a few terrified servants, even the two concubines were nowhere to be found.

”Reporting to class monitor, we still haven't seen any, there's simply no trace of Maylor at all …”

”Reporting to the class monitor, there has been an intense conflict outside the door, the cover for our brothers has been caught in a bitter battle, Maylor's reinforcements have arrived …”

The Fifth Squad Leader was so anxious that his head was spinning around in circles. He was well aware of the dangers of this battle. The longer it dragged on, the more dangerous it became.

”F * ck, prepare the Molotov Burn Bottles and shout from house to house. If no one agrees, then burn them for me …” That old thing won't be able to run away. It's impossible for him to leave this courtyard.

The class rep took the lead and jumped into a room as he shouted, ”Maylor, hurry up and come out, or else I'll burn you to death!” After three consecutive shouts, there was a crisp sound. The Molotov's cocktail smashed into the cabinet and its blazing flames engulfed the entire room.

The soldiers shouted from room after room. When no one agreed, they set fire to the study room. As soon as they shouted, they heard a weak voice coming from the corner of the study room.

”Stop, don't set the fire. I beg you, don't set the fire …” Everyone focused their eyes and saw that the sound had come from the bottom of an incomparably large porcelain vat in the corner. The blue and white porcelain vat filled with calligraphy and painting scrolls had actually moved in front of everyone's eyes.

”There's a cellar? This old thing is a mouse, he's actually hiding in a cellar in his study! ”

Under the fire spear's pressure, Maylor, his concubine and the military officers who drank together came out. These experienced generals naturally knew how powerful the Gun was as they were all obediently tied up by the soldiers.

”Tell me who you are. Whose soldiers are you? Was it Ceng Guofan's? Is he trying to rebel? ” The foolish Maylor still had not figured out the situation. In his heart, the only ones who dared to rebel and could rebel were the Zeng Family Brothers.

The Fifth Squad Leader smiled coldly, ”You can actually lead soldiers to war?” I am ashamed of the court... Take it away and place it down! ”

Currently, the outside of the courtyard had become the main battlefield. The two platoons of troops gathered here to provide cover for Class 5. Gunfire and thunder could be heard endlessly. Both sides were looking for cover and firing at each other.

Although the guns in the Manchu soldiers' hands were very primitive, and most of the soldiers still used bows and arrows, their advantage in numbers made up for the difference in weapons. Gradually, casualties began to appear among the new recruits, and the scales of victory began to waver.

Just then, the gate to the courtyard suddenly opened with a bang, and Maylor and a few other officers who were tied up were pushed out.

”Stop, ceasefire... All the Eight Flags Soldier have come to a ceasefire, and we have your lieutenants in our hands. All of you, retreat.

With the muzzle of the Spencer pointed at Maylor's temples, facing the threat of death, Maylor did not dare delay and immediately ordered, ”Brothers, all of you stop … Listen to them, and listen to them. I, Maylor, have always been good to you, don't hurt me … ”
