"Ahhhh!"

The sharp roar echoed in his ears. Qian Yuan could no longer think about it, so he could only run wildly behind the Japanese pirates who were waving their swords and shouting for charge.

The officers and soldiers from Nanling County who were waiting for battle were running all the way.

Dividing Mountain is actually just a small hill. Because it is located in Nanling and named between Wuhu, Nanling County Magistrate Chen Yidao was wearing soft armor and wearing a long sword on his waist, shouting loudly, "Shoot the arrow!"

Seeing the rainy arrows flying over, Qian Yuan's face was distorted. Could it be that he would die here?

But the next moment, almost everyone was stunned.

The Japanese pirates held a knife in one hand and covered their faces with the other, and still ran spontaneously, and the arrows could not pierce their bodies at all.

Qian Yuan even clearly saw that the leader of the Japanese pirates raised his hand and swept away a few flying arrows. What a fucking trick!

It's really not a cheat. It's raining near Ningguo Mansion, and it's raining, and it's Huangmeitian again. The bowstring is so soft that it's not very strong. In addition, these guards... can draw the bow and shoot the arrows and shoot the arrows.

Fifty steps, forty steps, thirty steps...

As usual, before the close contact was met, the officers and soldiers dispersed.

Qian Yuan slowed down and looked at this scene sadly. The Japanese pirates rushed into the crowd and slashed and killed each other. For a moment, blood splattered everywhere. The officers and soldiers rushed to flee. Those who could not escape actually knelt on the ground and kowtowed to escape.

A shrill scream sounded on the right side. Qian Yuan turned his head and looked at him. A middle-aged man in soft armor but obviously a civil servant pierced the soldiers kneeling on the ground and kowtowed with a sword. He turned around and roared a few times, and dozens of soldiers holding spears surrounded him.

"Don't retreat, don't retreat!" Chen Yidao slapped his son over and shouted: "Don't retreat even if he dies!"

Qian Yuan looked carefully and found that those dozens of people should not be soldiers of the garrison, but they should be local tyrants... The militia have more fighting will than regular troops, which is a common phenomenon in the Ming Dynasty.

The Japanese pirates who were scattered and chasing the officers and soldiers began to gather together to try to swallow the group of people in one bite. The leader of the Japanese pirates was obviously angry. I kept it in Nanling County and didn't fight. You dare to pester them!

More than a dozen Japanese pirates slowly approached, moving around to more than ten steps, and made a move from time to time to cause the formation to loosen.

After a loud shout, the Japanese pirates raised their swords to charge. Although the spear stabbed out three or four Japanese pirates in a row, the remaining Japanese pirates rushed into the formation smoothly.

Qian Yuan shook his head, looked at it for a few seconds before turning his head. Although Chen Yidao's integrity was admirable, he did not understand the battle formation, did not understand the tactics of war, and only relied on blood and courage. It can only be said that he used an egg to hit the stone.

In just two cups of tea, the formation surrounding them was penetrated by the Japanese pirates, and Chen Yidao and his son were both killed in battle.

Qian Yuan walked over quickly, looked at Chen Yidao's body, took out the wounded medicine and cotton cloth from the package behind him, and began to stop bleeding and bandage the wounds for the five or six injured Japanese pirates.

Suddenly, Qian Yuan heard a rumbling voice, and listened for a while. Chen Yidao's courage angered the Japanese pirate leader. After resting for a while, the group turned around and rushed towards Nanling County.

"Hey hey hey hey hey hey... What a bunch of idiots!" The guide surnamed Wang jumped behind and cursed, "It's really a bad guy!"

"That's right, can someone close the city gate? "Li Fu was also cursing, "If you meet someone like Qian Yuan in Songjiang again, you will die there!"

Qian Yuan's mouth twitched, his hands kept burying his head lowered.

"It's almost time to reach the Yangtze River!"

"What a bunch of idiots!"

Qian Yuan continued to do things silently, and in his mind, he thought that six Japanese pirates died in this battle, and four Japanese pirates were seriously injured.

He slightly turned his head and observed the guide Wang and Li Fu. Qian Yuan let out a sigh of relief and bandaged him more attentively.

Qian Yuan was not worried that Nanling County was not short of troops to defend the city, and the fleeing officers and soldiers would definitely arrive first. As long as the city gate was closed, the Japanese pirates would have no choice but to have three heads and six arms in a short period of time.

But the actual situation was beyond Qian Yuan's expectations.

Just half an hour later, the Japanese pirates returned from fleeing in a panic, and they kept shouting before they climbed the hill, making gestures to escape quickly.

"What's going on?"

"It's those guys holding bamboo poles again!" The Japanese pirate leader looked angry, "I met halfway through, and there were one or two thousand soldiers behind him."

"Go, go quickly!"

While packing up his things, Qian Yuan glanced at the silence in his heart. At least thirteen or fourteen were missing. It seemed that Yang Wen really had two tricks. No wonder Qi Jiguang asked for it several times.

"What should I do if the injured person?" Qian Yuan asked Li Fu in a low voice.

The leader of the Japanese pirates beside him pulled his sword without hesitation and strode over with his hands. After a few muffled groans, the four injured Japanese pirates fell to the ground with their bloody chests.

Qian Yuan felt a chill in his heart. He had done some tricks and tried to use the wounded to slow down the Japanese pirates' progress, but he did not expect that the Japanese pirate leader was so cruel.

"It's okay, the Japanese are very cheap." Li Fu whispered, "When you look back at the sea, as long as you have silver... it's wrong, you can exchange silk and tea for it. It's very cheap. The owner of Wufeng ship and Xu Hai have a large number of Japanese people."

"Let's go, hurry up."

"Those guys are coming soon. It's so annoying. Where did they come out? They have been chasing them for hundreds of miles!"

Qian Yuan kept up speechlessly. If you weren't crazy and brought me with you, how could they have been stubborn?

...

On the Dividing Mountain, Xu Wei sighed and asked someone to inform Nanling County that Chen Yidao was from Yuyao, Zhejiang and Xu Wei's fellow villager. His parents were both destroyed by Japanese pirates, and now both father and son are buried here.

"Count it, there were ten Japanese pirate corpses on the mountain, plus the fourteen people killed before, and a total of twenty-four people were killed." Zhang San tiptoed to try to find the traces of the Japanese pirates, "Now is there still?"

"About fifty people." Xu Wei blurted out, "Have Zhan Cai... asked?"

Wang Yi's face was a little strange, "I asked, the young master looks... It's pretty good. A yamen runner from Nanling County said that he saw the young master following the Japanese pirates."

Although he knew that Qian Yuan was still in danger, Zhang San could not help but curl up a curve. He had inexplicable confidence in Qian Yuan, which came from everything that happened in Hangzhou two years ago.

Zhang San was the first to follow Qian Yuan, and Qian Yuan regarded him as his confidant. As he saw with his own eyes, the young master suddenly turned the tables through a series of incomprehensible operations.

"Don't go to Nanling County!" Xu Wei drove away the yamen runners impatiently and shouted: "Get the map!"

Yang Wen and Zhang San opened the map personally, and Xu Wei almost lay on the map and looked carefully for a while.

Wang Yi asked tentatively: "Fanchang?"

Fanchang is located in the southwest of Wuhu, close to the Yangtze River.

"I have to cross the river to go to Nanjing..." Xu Wei murmured to himself, "Although there are not many people, I still need at least two ships, or a large ship... Have you prepared it long ago?"

"If the ship had been prepared, there would be no accurate target for the pursuit. The Japanese pirates were much faster than ours..."

“Once crossing the river…”
