Chapter four hundred and ninety first
The shouts of killing in front were deafening. Wu Dahu stood back, put on a pergola in his hand for a while, and shouted loudly in a thick voice: "It's nothing difficult, why didn't you catch it in three days?"
The Japanese pirate leader who was sieging the city in advance looked a little ugly. I almost smoothed the tip of the spear. You guy came to pick up the bargain and still said such sarcastic words!
Wu Dahu was the leader of the Japanese pirates under Ye Ma. Later, after the war in Wang Jiangjing, he cleverly joined Xu Hai. He was a rare wei sect among the Japanese pirate leaders. He has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and has also read some military books and understood some tactics. Last year, he captured Xiushui County and Deqing County.
Since the siege in the morning, it has not been more than two hours since the city of Shangyu County has been in chaos. Lu Peng has been running back and forth with half a spear in his hand, and Sun Piyang, holding a long sword, has already disheveled hair.
The Japanese pirates did not rebuild siege equipment like cloud ladders, but Wu Dahu was born in Changguowei and got a batch of bows and arrows from the garrison. He relied on dozens of archers who could barely shoot arrows onto the city wall. The Japanese pirates quickly climbed to the city wall. After all, the number of people was too great.
Lu Peng was already desperate. He had been guarding the city for three days, and now there were less than 200 soldiers under his command. Even the city was in full swing. The township heroes below... The township heroes in Shaoxing Prefecture might have some wrong poems. Can you expect them to go up to the city to kill the Japanese?
Sun Piyang was already estimating in his heart when he would swing his sword and commit suicide. The posture of falling down should not be too ugly. Should he shout a few words before committing suicide...
The proud Wu Dahu waved his whip and drove the mule under his crotch forward a few steps, pointing to Yao Jiang outside the city gate on the southwest side, "Go over there and block people on the other side of the river. Don't let people go, run east and don't worry."
Soon, some Japanese pirates brought in a large number of fishing boats as temporary bridges, and two or three hundred Japanese pirates jumped across the Yaojiang River and went to the other side.
Shangyu County is located in Cao'e River, not far from the intersection of Yao River. The tributary of Yao River Tongming River is also nearby. The surrounding rivers are crisscrossed and mountains are lined with mountains.
Sun Piyang took his time to look at it, sighed and wanted to get the long sword that had been prepared long ago... The literati committed suicide, so of course he had to use a sword instead of a knife.
At this moment, Sun Piyang's pupils shrank slightly, his body stiffened, and his right hand raised and pointed at Yao Jiang outside the city.
"Master, be careful!" A guard rushed over and knocked down a Japanese pirate in leather armor. The two of them rolled down the steps at the top of the city.
Sun Piyang died of death without having time to go to take care of the health care system, so he suddenly jumped to the top of the city and shouted: "Reinforcements are here, reinforcements are here!"
The sound of fighting around stopped, and the officers and soldiers on the city wall and the Japanese pirates on the ladder turned to look. On the other side of the Yaojiang River, hundreds of black officers and soldiers appeared. The soldiers wearing iron armor and the shining sword light made the hundreds of Japanese pirates who had just crossed the river in chaos.
"Down!" Lu Peng reacted first, rushed up and pulled Sun Piyang off. As soon as their feet fell to the ground, the sound of whizzing arrows came from his ears.
"I don't want to die!"
Sun Piyang held Lu Peng's arm tightly, "It should be reinforcements sent by the Governor's Office!"
Lu Peng waved his remnant gun with his other hand and shouted loudly: "Brothers, reinforcements have arrived, and the Japanese pirates are about to retreat!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Japanese pirates who were still climbing up just now slid down and jumped down without any time. For a moment, they were overturned and were in chaos.
Sun Piyang threw Lu Peng away, ran for dozens of steps, staring at the top of his eyes, and the reinforcements had almost no stop. The soldiers at the front held a strange spear and stabbed the Japanese pirates who were fighting like a knife cutting tofu. The soldiers who followed either held a shield or a steel knife, and rushed into the breakthrough.
In a moment, hundreds of Japanese pirates collapsed immediately, and they rushed back to tears... It was not that the officers and soldiers were killed too hard, but that the officers and soldiers appeared too coincidental. It happened that the Japanese pirates crossed the river and established a foothold. All Japanese pirates knew that behind them was a temporary bridge built by fishing boats to escape.
Looking at this scene from afar, Qian Yuan smiled and said, "Jimei is worthy of being a general. The time he chose is just right... He did not choose the Japanese pirates to cross half of the river, but the Japanese pirates were not yet stable in crossing the river."
Wu Chengqi said regretfully: "It's a pity that we must first win the battle, otherwise we would be able to attack with a small team, accompanied by bird guns and short spears, which would have been able to keep all the hundreds of Japanese pirates."
"I don't expect to be perfect." Qian Yuan shook his head, "It's already good. Let's take the lead. As long as the leader of the Japanese pirates is not a fool, he will not continue to attack the city."
Wu Chengqi nodded in agreement. He was originally stationed in Sanmen Town. Later, after Qian Yuan inspected Ninghai, he transferred him to the rooftop to assist Qi Jimei. After all, there were Lu Bin, Hou Jigao, and Zhong Nan in Ninghai, and there were no shortage of generals.
Standing on the hill and looking into the distance, hundreds of Japanese pirates were driven across the river like ducks, leaving behind a mess. The Japanese pirates on the other side had stopped siegeing the city to come to pick them up. The guards in the front did not cross the river. They cut down the remaining Japanese pirates, beheaded, and threw them aside to gather.
Qian Yuan clamped his legs and rushed down the hill, passing through the back formation that had basically not been in contact, all the way to the Yao River.
Liang Wen, who held the head of the Japanese pirates, grinned and said, "Young Master, you didn't embarrass you!"
"I did a good job." Qian Yuan smiled and said, "How are the casualties?"
"The Japanese pirates were shocked. As soon as they started fighting, they all collapsed. The front was covered in armor, and only a few were scratched. Look, they were bandaged."
Qian Yuan nodded with satisfaction. He set off early this morning. Before leaving, he knocked Hu Zongxian another snatch and took off three hundred pairs of iron armor from the personal soldiers next to him.
Just now, the guards were the main force, and the generals gathered their personal soldiers around the six posts, all of them were covered in iron armor, and suddenly rushed to the battlefield. In one battle, they really won a great victory... This is also because the Japanese pirates were only concerned about siege and released too few scouts. Five or six Japanese pirates on the other side of Yaojiang were staring at them, and Wang Yi led people to touch them easily.
I was thinking about how to take the lead, but the Japanese pirate leader was kind-hearted and specially sent a plate of good dishes.
The soldiers began to clean the battlefield, beheaded the dying Japanese pirates one by one, gathered the weapons scattered all over the ground, and pulled the ships on Yaojiang over.
"But the Jiang?" Wu Chengqi whispered: "Just just now, the telescope really couldn't defend Shangyu County."
"Don't be anxious." Qian Yuan said to the upstream Nunu, and the Japanese pirates actually gathered a group of fishing boats, and it seemed that they were trying to cross the river and fight.
This is understandable. After all, there are only more than a thousand reinforcements, no more than Japanese pirates who attacked the city.
"About Qianwu." Qi Jimei took the telescope and observed it carefully for a while, "Zhancai, let's fight here?"
"I don't care about the command, you discuss with Lao Wang." Qian Yuan said simply: "But the actions are for me."
Direct command on the battlefield is not Qian Yuan's strength. In fact, Qian Yuan only made clear arrangements in the Tongxiang victory so many times over the years. That was a desperate attempt at the disadvantage, and it was also because he saw Tan Wei and Zhou Ji on the flank.
But Qian Yuan needs to control the movements of the army, which is also his strength.
The Japanese pirates crossing the river were in chaos and Qian Yuan didn't bother to pay attention to it. Qi Jimei and Wang Yi did not take advantage of the chaos to attack, but began to... set up camps.
Lu Peng at the head of Shangyu County was anxious and patted the city wall and shouted, "What are you thinking? I have a boat in my hand, just cross the river and enter the city directly. I have to fight... Uh, the backyard is setting up a tent... They won't go into the city?"
Sun Piyang looked carefully for a while before slowly saying: "The camp was set up across the river outside the city, and the military strategy was in line with... The chosen position was just right at the waist. Once the Japanese pirates attacked the city, the flanks would be the weakness."
"I don't even have a banner, who is under his command..." Lu Peng muttered: "Anyway, it must not be Yue Guerrilla, nor is it Liu Shen General."
Sun Piyang vaguely guessed that maybe it was his own who was in the capital who was famous and famous in the same year.
Sun Piyang was both an Jinshi in the 35th year of Jiajing, and was unknown. He was only a three-level Jinshi. However, Qian Yuan was also a three-level Jinshi, but Qian Yuan was selected as a Shujishi and entered the Hanlin area. Sun Piyang was very unhappy about this.
Sun Piyang, who was born in the brigade, thought so in his heart. Qian Yuan became famous all over the world for fighting against the Japanese in the southeast... Can the Japanese pirates in the southeast compare with the Mongolian army?
But after being the magistrate of Shangyu for a few months, Sun Piyang's idea completely changed. He could not imagine the rampant Japanese pirates in the southeast... On the second day of the first lunar month, he left the city to inspect the local area. The Japanese pirates carelessly looted the village under the noses of hundreds of officers and soldiers, and even the Mongolian army was not so crazy.
Not to mention that the Japanese pirates have been sieging the city for a few days. Although the Japanese pirates are not good at siegeing the city, they fight in close combat regardless of life and death, and are even more fierce and tyrannical than the Mongols.
