Chapter 90: Misfortunes lead to the east 2
Chapter 90: The disaster is in the east 2
The navy's officer was named Huaiyi, who was an absolute prince.
Since Zhu Li, the navy of the Ming Dynasty was greatly reduced, and the remaining navy was very few. Moreover, after the military pay that the court allocated every year was detained and moved to the east and west, it was only enough to pay the soldiers to be given. As for the construction of new warships, it was not even thought about it. Moreover, when it was Yingzong, the tribes on the northern grasslands began to become stronger, which also attracted the attention of the court. As for the Japanese pirates harassing the coast, one was that they were elusive and the navy could not grasp their movements at all. The other was that their ships were relatively small and their speed in the sea was much greater than that of the navy. So even if they occasionally met them, the navy could only look at the back of the Japanese pirates and cursed, and they could not catch up at all, let alone wiped them out.
According to Wang Zhongshu's plan, the navy found a shelter place and stopped between the Jinyiwei and the East Factory. Once a war broke out on the Jinyiwei, they would immediately sail to the sea, cut off the retreat of the Japanese pirates on the sea, and drove the Japanese pirates toward Wang Zhongshu's encirclement. In order to win this battle, the navy dispatched dozens of ships of all sizes, with nearly a thousand people.
Some larger warships of the Ming Dynasty also had artillery on the warships, but the artillery was of poor accuracy and was shot close. Unless the two sides fought each other in close combat, it would be difficult to achieve success. Huaiyi made even more cruel this time and brought all the iron treasures in the camp onto the ship, hoping that they could do something.
But the matter is willing, and the sudden heavy rain in the sky slapped Huai Yi fiercely. Not only did the artillery not use all, but it became a burden. At this time, the artillery was all placed on the deck, rather than hidden under the deck. When it rained heavily, the gunpowder was wet and could not be lit at all, let alone fired shells.
There was no way to get him to ask all the soldiers to pick up swords and other weapons. When he was still there, he had to rush up with brute force, occupying Japanese pirates one by one, but this efficiency was much lower, and without artillery, the threat was much less.
When the Dongchang fought with the Japanese pirates, Huaiyi was staring at the ambush place of the Jinyiwei. In order to worry that he would not be able to see it on rainy nights, someone was responsible for sending signals every once in a while.
"Sir, the signal from the East Factory is coming, are they attacked?"
A messenger said breathlessly.
"What?"
Huaiyi was surprised. Sure enough, fireworks rose one after another along the coast of the East Factory, which was completely different from the news Wang Zhongshu gave him.
Although he had Huaiyi in his heart, he did not hesitate and immediately ordered: "Transfer my order. When the Japanese pirates attack, all the ships moved closer to the east factory and prepared to fight and kill the Japanese pirates and those bastards!"
After all, Wang Zhongshu is Wang Zhen's godson. If he is injured because of his navy, he will not be able to bear this responsibility.
The flag was not visible at night, so the signal was basically based on the throat, and the soldiers were honest and shouted out: "The general has an order. All the ships that attacked the Japanese pirates were moving closer to the east factory, ready to fight and kill the Japanese pirates and those bastards!"
When the soldiers of the navy heard this, they all acted. During this period, they felt like a good woman, teased by the Japanese pirates and had no temper. Sometimes they knew that the Japanese pirates were in chaos, and when they rushed over, they were still burning fire houses in addition to the lost people all over the place. So the navy suddenly became a firefighter. Moreover, most of the navy were people by the sea, and the villages destroyed by the Japanese pirates also had their own villages. Although they hated them in their hearts, they couldn't even see the Japanese pirates. Now, when they finally fought head-on with the Japanese pirates, they couldn't help but feel frustrated in their hearts, and they screamed, as if they wanted to eat people.
Anger is a driving force.
I don't know which person said this.
The navy, which was usually trained in scattered, changed its normal behavior at this time and moved very quickly. After a while, the entire fleet was numbered and rushed towards the sea facing the East Factory in the wind and rain.
After a while, the navy rushing to the front saw dozens of ships of all sizes docked on the sea. He immediately realized that this must be the Japanese pirates' ship, so he pulled out his weapons and leaned towards the ships.
These geographical conditions in heaven and earth are always double-edged swords. As long as whoever knows how to use them, it will be beneficial to whom.
…………
Just as the navy began to operate, Jiang Chengzhi's Jinyiwei, with a thousand men, was also shouting to kill the bandits, but their enemies were only a few dozen people, which means that Jiang Chengzhi was using the thousand Jinyiwei to wipe out the Japanese pirates with dozens of people.
Because it was dark, it started to rain heavily when it was approaching the seaside. The last Japanese pirate ship could not help but deviate from the large army, and the location where they landed was the location of Jiang Chengzhi's 1,000 troops.
In order to allow the Japanese pirates to successfully confirm Jiang Chengzhi's place and where they stay at night and prevent the Japanese pirates from running the wrong route, Wang Zhongshu chose the places that are easier to find and convenient to land. In addition, there are guides among the Japanese pirates, and they can accurately determine the location in the dark, so the beach in front of Jiang Chengzhi is very suitable for landing.
As soon as dozens of Japanese pirates got ashore, they were discovered by the Jinyiwei lurking on the shore. So the archers all pulled their bows and aimed at the dozens of Japanese pirates who were trying to identify the direction, but did not realize that they had become targets of others. When these Japanese pirates were close enough to them, Jiang Chengzhi gave the order. In just two seconds, the places where these dozens of Japanese pirates were staying were covered by hundreds of feather arrows. Not to mention people, even flies could not avoid them. These Japanese pirates didn't even scream, but they turned into hedgehogs one by one. Until they died, they didn't understand where the arrow came from.
In an instant, a desolate shout resounded across the beach.
After the first round of shooting, the officers and soldiers of the Jinyiwei were afraid that the Japanese pirates would not die. Without saying a word, they pulled their bows together to make up for the round again. Moreover, the Japanese pirates were only a few dozen steps away from them, so after this round of arrow rain, no one of the Japanese pirates who were still humming could hum.
In order to prevent the Japanese pirates from having another ambush, the Jinyiwei did not move, but instead looked vigilantly at the beach covered by heavy rain in front of him.
At this time, fireworks rose one after another to the sky.
Zheng Baichuan pointed to the sky and said, "Sir, look, Dongchang sent us a signal to reinforce us."
Jiang Chengzhi turned his head and saw that fireworks were blooming in the air.
"Did the Japanese pirates have all gone to the East Factory and have dozens of people coming to us?"
Long Xiaotian said a little strangely.
"That's not impossible!"
Jiang Chengzhi smiled slightly and said, "It's not clear on this rainy day. It's reasonable that the Japanese pirates chose the wrong place to land. This is God bless us."
But he knew very well what happened.
Zheng Baichuan nodded and said, "Sir, what should we do now? Should we go over and support them?"
"Of course!"
Jiang Chengzhi affirmed: "I can't help but have any barriers between Jinyiwei and Dongchang. Now our common enemy is Dongchang. Now when they are attacked, we must go and help."
But as soon as he finished this, he immediately said: "But we have also encountered an attack. In order to ensure that no Japanese pirates escape, I passed my order, and everyone searched along the seaside. When they encountered Japanese pirates, they would not leave any living mouths."
Zheng Baichuan and others have followed Jiang Chengzhi for a long time. How could they not understand what Jiang Chengzhi meant? His meaning was just waiting for the fight there and he waited for the people to go up. This could greatly reduce his losses. As for why he went there late, he also said something about it, that was, he encountered Japanese pirates on the way, which wasted time.
So Jiang Chengzhi's order was passed down immediately. Thousands of Jinyiwei immediately crawled out of the hidden place and searched along the beach while moving forward. It was really true that they encountered some lonely or fleeing Japanese pirates on the way, and the Jinyiwei took a big advantage. As for the most unlucky Japanese pirates just now, the soldiers of Jinyiwei were worried that there were still some dead among them, so they all made up for another knife, and they were more direct, all of them cut off their heads. And the facts have proved that as long as it is not a myth, those who cut off their heads will be dead. The Jinyiwei cannot be blamed for being cruel, mainly because these Japanese pirates have never treated the coastal people mercilessly.
The Jinyiwei was also lucky. There were hundreds of Japanese pirates who had been eliminated along the way. None of the Jinyiwei was killed, and only a few were injured. When they arrived at the ambush in the Dongchang, there were many corpses lying on the ground, including Japanese pirates and Jinyiwei. On the sea, there were also vague shouts of killing.
"Sailing Army?"
Jiang Chengzhi immediately understood, and didn't say much, waved his knife and shouted: "Kill me, and leave no living!"
The few small battles just now had completely aroused the bloodiness of the Jinyiwei, and he immediately covered his sword and rushed towards the Japanese pirates who were in a tough battle.
