Hello Chang’an

Chapter 398: One kills ten (please vote for me)

Three days later, when the Xingzhou envoy went to Dongluo to pay tribute to citrus, Chang Sui Ning also left the island with his people.

She only took a hundred people to leave by boat, and the rest stayed on the island to control the situation. At this point, the secret passage to Xingzhou has been opened, and more manpower can be sent in the future.

The next day, the Xingzhou envoys and ships that went to pay tribute to the tangerines docked in Dongluo one after another.

Yuanxiang, who was wearing the robe of a Xingzhou waiter and mixed in among them, followed the envoy team and successfully entered the border of Dongluo Kingdom.

This time he came here with a heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

First of all, the first thing he had to do was follow Mrs. Chang's instructions and go to meet someone in private.

That person is now being closely monitored by the new King of Dongluo, and it is not easy to see him unnoticed.

But it was precisely because it was not easy that Cui Yuanxiang needed to take action. Before he came, he promised Madam Chang that he would live up to his mission and would catch up with Madam Chang as soon as possible...even if it was just to gain reputation for the Governor. He also has to complete this errand successfully!

On the night when he settled down in Dongluo, Yuanxiang, who was full of faith, put on a black suit, took only three people with him, and left the residence at night.

That night the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the next day there was a rare sunny weather in recent times.

But this time the weather cleared up, it was not a good sign.

The sharp sword hanging above Jiang Du's head finally fell after the rain and fog dispersed for many days.

Just as anxious eyes from all over the place were focused on the Runzhou defense line, the Jiangdu defense line was suddenly in emergency...

The Japanese army was still attacking the Runzhou defense line, and even sent nearly 10,000 additional naval divisions again, gathering a total of 30,000 naval forces to attack the Runzhou sea area. Under this situation, everyone had to send troops to support Runzhou -

At this time when Runzhou was feared to be in danger, Jiangdu Coast Defense suddenly sounded the emergency horn, one after another, resounding throughout the entire sea area.

The Japanese soldiers who suddenly attacked Jiangdu, like piranhas smelling the smell of blood, swam over quickly and bitten madly at the defenses laid out in the waters of Jiangdu.

And they come in groups. At first glance, they look huge in number. It is estimated that there are at least 70,000 of them!

The Japanese army sent more than 100,000 troops this time. Excluding the casualties in these days, they now attacked Runzhou with 30,000 troops. The 70,000 troops that attacked Jiangdu were equivalent to targeting the treasure land of Jiangdu with all the remaining main forces!

Military orders for emergency response were issued from the hands of Chang Kuo, a member of the army.

After half a year of purges and coordination, other coastal states, especially the coastal defense states heading north from Jiangdu, are now fully cooperating with Jiangdu to defend against enemies.

In order to contain Dasheng's troops, the Japanese army did not stop their offensive on Runzhou. Chu Xing and Bai Hong were ordered by Chang Suining to stick to Runzhou and did not dare to leave even half a step.

At this moment, the general responsible for defending against the enemy in the Jiangdu waters is Deputy General Jin under Chang Kuo. Shepherd's Purse, He Wuhu and others are also struggling to defend.

On the fifth day of the battle, seeing that the situation was not going well, General Chang Kuo ordered someone to fetch the armor after he had settled the remaining matters.

Lao Kang and other veterans were surprised when they saw this.

"...The general is going to go to sea to defend the enemy personally?!"

"How can this happen! Your legs..."

"So many soldiers have been thrown away with their lives, so my legs are nothing!" Chang Kuo picked up the "Zhan Xiu", and the armor added to his body made his brows more majestic and general-like.

"The coach hasn't returned yet, so I'll go meet these rats for a while!"

During a war, the morale of the military must not be disturbed.

He rushes to the front line to take charge of the overall situation, which is the best choice at the moment.

Lao Kang and others knelt down one after another: "...I am willing to join the general in defeating the enemy!"

Chang Kuo's eyes swept over these veterans who had accompanied him in battles for many years. Their hair was all gray, and some of them were even disabled due to injuries. But at this moment, their eyes were firm and sharp, and their vigor was still as strong as before.

Killing foreigners and protecting the territory was the most unquestionable mission that every Xuance Army once shouldered. It flowed in the blood and seemed to have been dormant for many years, but when the war came, it could be awakened and boiling.

"Okay, follow me to hang the flag and go to sea!" Chang Kuo's voice was loud and clear.

When Chang Kuo left the tent, A Dian ran over to find him.

"Uncle Chang, I'll go with you too!"

Chang Kuo just wanted him to stay, but he saw that A Dian, who was usually slow, quickly spoke on his own: "Uncle Chang, don't forget, I am also a general! Generals all have to fight!"

"A good general wants to fight! With the spirit of fearlessness in our Da Sheng army, why worry about not being able to repel the Japanese enemies!" Chang Kuo's eyes showed a trace of happy and exciting smile: "Good boy, let's go , take the sword and go out to sea with Uncle Chang to kill the enemy!"

…

In autumn and winter, northwest winds are common on the sea surface. Start from the northwest and go to the southeast. Go with the wind, and the wind can help. On the contrary, if you sail against the wind, the boat will be slowed down.

Therefore, the time for Chang Suining and his party to return from Xingzhou Island was extended several times.

In addition, without the cover of rain and fog, it will undoubtedly become more difficult to hide your whereabouts, so you must be more careful.

Fortunately, the focus of the Japanese army at the moment was on the battle at the front, and the patrols at the rear were inevitably a little less relaxed. Therefore, the journey of Chang Suining and his party for the first six days was smooth and smooth.

Until this day, the boats and soldiers sent to explore the road ahead had not turned back for a long time.

Chang Suining had a bad premonition in his heart and immediately ordered to change the sailing route, but it was still a step too late.

Japanese ships suddenly appeared from three sides and surrounded them.

The situation this time was different from the previous ones. The Japanese soldiers Chang Suining and others encountered before were mostly guerrilla patrol teams, usually no more than a hundred people, and the killing was not stressful.

But this time…

Chang Suining held the scabbard of his sword and looked around at the densely packed Japanese ships. He roughly estimated that there should be a thousand people.

These Japanese soldiers should be soldiers rushing to the front line to support supplies. Judging from the size of some of the ships behind them, they should be escorting a lot of supplies.

Chang Sui Ning, who was used to the shortage of supplies in the army, had the first reaction in his mind - grab it.

The sack in my heart was ready, but it was obviously not easy to implement.

In this sea area, a team of 100 people collided with thousands of Japanese soldiers. Not to mention robbing things, it was extremely difficult to save their lives.

Even though Chang Sui Ning and others were not stupid enough to wear Da Sheng soldier uniforms and wander around on the sea, just waiting to be targeted by Japanese soldiers, but they dressed up as Japanese soldiers when they left Xingzhou, but This disguise can only be viewed from a distance, and it is destined to not be able to withstand such a close test...

Tang Xing, who had learned some Japanese language, led a few people to reply, and tried to pretend to be stupid for a long time. However, the Japanese army on the opposite side did not buy it. Instead, he drew his sword with vigilance and annoyance, and ordered the siege in Japanese language -

"These people must be spies disguised as **** Sheng Jun! Kill them!"

"Keep a few alive and hand them over to General Fujiwara for interrogation!"

"Cut off all their heads and hang them on the frontline warships to intimidate the Sheng army... General Fujiwara will definitely remember me for this great achievement!"

The eyes of the Japanese soldiers were shining with excitement. They raised their swords and shouted while approaching the boat. "Sir, what should we do now?" As Tang Xing drew his sword, he asked the girl beside him for instructions.

"It shouldn't be difficult." Chang Suining took the long bow, quickly set an arrow, narrowed one eye slightly, and the long arrow left the string with a "whoosh" sound, accurately penetrating the throat of a leading Japanese soldier -

When she nocked the arrow again, she said: "One person kills ten, that's all."

Tang Xing was stunned for a moment: "..."

What a "that's all".

The girl still found time to joke with him: "Killing ten people in one day, isn't this a novel experience?"

Tang Xing swung his sword to block an arrow flying towards him. He couldn't care less about his surprise, and just replied in a dumbfounded voice: "Novelty...how can it be so novel!"

Chang Suining drew his bow again and stared at the Japanese enemies: "When I kill ten of them, I will kill a few for you."

"...I can't kill any of them!" In the cabin, Wujue, who was running around with his head in his arms, cried out in pain: "Don't count my share!"

He is not good at killing people. He only knows **** oranges. Once his appetite improves, he can kill more than half the basket in a day!

"Then you hide."

Seeing that the distance between the two sides was approaching, the girl took the spear, jumped up, and directly killed the approaching Japanese ship.

Tang Xing immediately followed up with his sword, counting in his mind as he killed, one, two...three!

Although Tang Xing was not an orthodox sergeant, he had a lot of skills. He traveled around for many years to see who had the skills, so he apprenticed himself to his masters on the spot. After going back and forth, he developed a swordsmanship that was unparalleled by others.

Ordinarily more than ten people could not get close to him.

Although the Japanese army was better at water attacks, if they gritted their teeth and held on without fear of injury, it wouldn't be a problem for Tang Xing to kill a dozen of them.

But not everyone is Tang Xing, and it is even less likely that everyone is Chang Sui Ning. Most people are far from capable of fighting one against ten, especially when fighting against the ferocious Japanese army at sea.

A head-on confrontation won't work.

And no matter how strict the military morale is, once the death toll exceeds 30%, the morale will quickly collapse.

"Follow me forward and find an exit!"

Chang Suining pierced the chest of a Japanese soldier with a long spear in his hand, took a few steps forward, and at the same time struck with his leg, sweeping a Japanese soldier into the sea. He said to Tang Xing, "Follow my command!"

Chang Suining led the people to fight and shouted towards the cabin behind him: "Wujue, take the people and prepare the things!"

Wujue responded, quickly pulled out two large boxes from the cabin, and quickly opened them.

Tang Xing and others followed Chang Suining, with a clear goal in mind, and headed forward to kill.

The Japanese army adopted the method of encirclement and encirclement. The troops were evenly distributed on all four sides, with more than 200 people on each side. Chang Sui Ning was in front to open the way and boost morale, and they were able to quickly fight a **** road.

The Japanese army could not let them leave and pursued them hard from the rear.

The leader of the Japanese commander had a murderous and contemptuous smile on his face, and said loudly in Japanese language: "This sea area has always been dominated by us, and you incompetent people who don't want to make progress are destined to be unable to escape today! "

As he finished speaking, he saw that on the ship in front, the girl who had just taken the lead in the fight now walked up to the stern of the ship. As if she understood what he said, she asked with a half-smile: "Really?"

The next moment, she raised her right hand and made a "let go" gesture.

Some gestures seemed to transcend language communication on the battlefield. The Japanese army only took her as an order to fire arrows, and did not stop the boat. They only ordered the front row boat to immediately put up shields for defense.

But what they never thought was that the Shengren who did not want to make progress in their eyes was not planning to shoot arrows.

One by one, lit gunpowder tubes were thrown onto their ship along with the wind.

Nowadays, the explosiveness of gunpowder is limited, and detonating gunpowder alone is not enough to cause widespread damage. Therefore, the role of gunpowder in war is mostly to "support combustion."

When the Japanese soldiers saw the gunpowder barrel falling on their ship, they thought that the other party wanted to burn the ship and cause panic.

"Don't panic!"

As the Japanese commander hurriedly gave orders, he kicked the two gunpowder tubes that were about to explode at his feet and kicked them off the boat, hoping to use the sea water to destroy them.

Other Japanese soldiers also followed suit.

However, they soon discovered that when the gunpowder tubes that had not been kicked into the water exploded, in addition to sparks flying, they were also accompanied by a choking smell. The smell was far more than just the gunpowder itself—

With inhalation, many Japanese soldiers began to cough and cry, and gradually became unable to see clearly and had difficulty breathing.

This is because the gunpowder barrel was mixed with a large amount of lime powder, which filled the air with the explosion.

As for those gunpowder barrels with specially treated outer barrels, once they fell into the water, huge thick smoke quickly rose up, and the smoke spread, once again blocking the Japanese army's sight.

Chang Sui Ning had just led his men to fight a **** path in order to make full use of the wind direction.

Looking at the chaotic formation of Japanese ships and the billowing smoke, Tang Xing reacted for a moment, then his eyes flashed with surprise—using gunpowder to create a smoke screen and releasing lime powder? !

This was the first time he had seen this kind of use...

The lethality brought by this method in naval battles is far greater than ordinary fire attacks!

Gunpowder is so useful that although there is no fire, it can kill the enemy invisible!

Fortunately to see this "sharp weapon" come out, Tang Xing couldn't help but get excited. He turned to look at the girl beside him: "Sir..."

"When the smoke subsides, cover your mouth and nose, and fight quickly, leaving no one behind." Chang Suining waited and watched for a while, then turned and returned to the cabin, explaining at the same time: "Remember to take everything with you and get on the boat as soon as possible."

Tang Xing suddenly raised his voice and responded energetically: "Yes!"

…

"You mean that Chang Kuo has personally boarded the ship to direct the war?"

When the sky was getting dark, Fujiwara Maro sat cross-legged in the warship at the rear. After listening to Yoshimi's words of support, the word "Chan Kuo" brought back memories like old thorns.

Yoshimi Fu's eyes were full of sneers: "Yes! His daughter, who is known as the coach, is hiding somewhere, and he actually asked a lame and disabled old man to come forward to support the overall situation!"

Hearing the word "mutilated", Fujiwara Maro's remaining eye suddenly darkened.

Ji Jianfu was suddenly startled and immediately lowered his head and did not dare to say anything.

For a moment, he saw Maro Fujiwara standing up slowly from the corner of his eye. The last ray of the setting sun cast a large shadow on Maro Fujiwara's figure on the bulkhead.

He held the Japanese sword that he had been waiting for for many years with both hands, and there was a dark look in his eyes: "Since an old friend is here, I, the general, should personally receive him."

He couldn't kill Li Xiao with his own hands, so it would be nice to use Chang Kuo's blood to vent his old hatred.

Moreover, the people of the Sheng Kingdom said that if you capture the thief first, capture the king and kill Chang Kuo, then you can defeat the stupid and blind morale of the Sheng army in one fell swoop!

In the setting sun, Maro Fujiwara strode out of the cabin wearing armor and holding a sword, with a murderous look all over his body.
