Chapter Five Hundred and Three Tat for Tat

Before the sky was dawn, the heavy fog that had lasted for several days finally stopped appearing. The light from the rising sun that jumped from the horizon easily dispelled the hazy fog.

A stream of black smoke suddenly rose from the hill southwest of the Hunfeng Town, and the smoke pillars were straight towards the sky, attracting attention.

Qima was scolding Xu Hai, who was speeding up, turned around and looked at his subordinates' reminder and frowned. He risked setting up an ambush last night and defeated the pursuers in one fell swoop... The news should have been passed back last night.

In such a cold weapon era, Japanese pirates were not afraid of night battles, but officers and soldiers did not want night battles... As well-trained as Qi Jiguang, Qian Yuan's army was the least willing to fight at night. Darkness and chaos would loosen the formation and greatly weaken their advantages.

After repelling the pursuers late last night, Xu Hai sent his men to Lihai Station, and gathered the remaining troops to station in the Hunfeng Town. It was not until dawn that he closed his eyes for a while.

Therefore, facing the rising Yanzhu, Xu Hai made a judgment that would not make mistakes under normal circumstances. Some officers and soldiers scouts spyed around and saw that the Japanese pirates who usurped the wind were about to escape from the sea and lit a wolf smoke as a warning.

"I'll avenge you in the future!" Xu Hai gritted his teeth and rushed out of the town. This battle destroyed most of his efforts in the past four or five years, and made him lose face.

Since the 33rd year of Jiajing, Xu Hai has repeatedly invaded the southeast coast and is almost certain to win every battle. Lu Tong, Yu Dayou, Tang Kekuan, and Ren Huan are all defeated players under him. Even in the battle of Wang Jiangjing that year, Zhang Jing mobilized tens of thousands of troops to encircle and suppress him, Xu Hai finally escaped.

This is also what Qian Yuan was angry about. When Xu Hai fled into the sea from the army, there were only more than a thousand people around him. But in just half a year, his power was so powerful that he could go to war with Wang Zhi... Qian Yuan was already making a lawsuit against him, why did he complain? Hu Zongxian couldn't control you, and he couldn't kill you Liu Xian?

When landing on the shore, there were only more than a thousand Japanese pirates when they evacuated. Xu Hai's face was gloomy and his heart was depressed, but he was not desperate. There were more than a thousand men and a chance to make a comeback... As long as Wang Zhi did not take any harm to the insult.

Xu Hai was not worried about the pursuit of the officers and soldiers. Although there were many mountains nearby and it was difficult to detect, he sent people to climb high and look far away, and the government troops in the south did not chase him.

More than a thousand Japanese pirates were very long. The Japanese pirates in front rushed forward one after another. Most of the Japanese pirates behind came back in the dark in the middle of the night. They couldn't lift their feet and couldn't run even if they wanted to.

Xu Hai was thinking about his plan to return to his nest this time. The long line was walking around a valley. After walking straight north for two or three miles, you could see the sails on the sea from afar.

At this moment, a big change began to rise sharply.

"Bang, bang bang!"

First there was the crackling sound of bird gun shooting, followed by the shouts of killing throughout the valley, and then there was a rumbling sound of large stones and giant trees rolling down from the mountain, cutting off the Japanese pirates.

At the entrance of the valley, a large flag suddenly rose, with the sword under the waist and hips. Yu Dayou, holding a bow and arrow, shouted loudly. Hundreds of armored soldiers, bows and arrows, short spears, and stones falling from the mountain poured out from behind, completely marred the Japanese pirates running in the front.

Xu Hai's face turned blue and white. Although he was illiterate, he knew that the banner had the word "Yu".

One report back and the other report. In the 33rd year of Jiajing, Xu Hai first emerged from his cottage to ambush Yu Dayou, and now it is the latter's turn to set up an ambush.

It is difficult to climb a mountain. Not to mention the steepness of the mountain, there are also officers and soldiers who keep investing in stones and big trees on it.

Go back and find another way?

Xu Hai was very clear about the nearby terrain. He could not go around Lihai. He could only choose a way to climb the mountain and go north to the beach, but the boats could not dock at all. Even if they were riding on a small boat, how many people could escape?

This is also the reason why Yu Dayou chose to set up an ambush here.

He could only fight to the death and fight to a bloody path... Xu Haiyao was about to break out and pulled out his long sword, roared forward, and the hundreds of Japanese pirates behind him also knew that this was the time for life and death, and they raised their swords and shouted at the formation.

Yu Dayou sneered, took a bow and shot the three Japanese pirates in front of him in three consecutive arrows. The soldiers next to him had already pushed the wooden fence built yesterday in front of the formation, and a trench that was not deep but could not be stepped through four or five steps in front.

This time, Yu Dayou carefully selected 500 warriors, with the children of the Yu family, Li family, Liu family and other clans as the backbone. The scene when Pinghu was ambushed by Xu Hai and the soldiers were about to collapse at one touch made him unforgettable.

The soldier carried a large shield and pressed against the wooden fence. The spear behind him kept stabbing out of the gap. Because of a seemingly inconspicuous trench, the Japanese pirates could not take advantage of the rushing momentum and rushed towards the front of the officers and soldiers. They had to slow down and take two steps in the trench before climbing. Moreover, the trench was tall and short, waiting for the Japanese pirates to climb up... This was already within the attack range of the spear behind the wooden fence.

As long as the soldiers in the back formation had the strength, they would throw arrows from time to time. As long as they could shoot out, they would basically not be lost. Dozens of bird guns quietly poked out from their wings, and with each crackling sound, the wailing sound of Japanese pirates immediately came.

Yu Dayou stood under the banner with a calm face, and from time to time, commanding loudly, and the messengers kept shuttled from side to side. More than a thousand Japanese pirates were in chaos. Some were climbing up and some were running back. As long as they could withstand the hundreds of Japanese pirates in front of them... a great victory was expected!

Xu Hai, wearing iron armor, had a pale complexion. He held a knife in his right hand and a half-cut spear in his left hand. He walked a few steps in the trench. He saw the opportunity and suddenly rushed out of the trench with a loud shout, almost instantly sticking to the wooden fence.

The long sword in his right hand cut off the neck of the shield's hand from the side, and the tip of the remaining gun in his left hand pierced into the eyes of another soldier. With the momentum, Xu Hai had already broken the formation in a moment.

Without turning around and greeting, Xu Hai rolled over the ground, not caring about his back, and his shoulder was chopped or stabbed. His left hand was broken and his left hand was out of his hand and stabbed a soldier in the face. Then he pulled the soldier with his left hand to block the side, and his right hand had a long knife blocked first and then slashed, slashing at the neck of the soldier trying to attack.

With a gap, dozens of Japanese pirates flocked in. Seeing the chaos of the situation, suddenly a soldier wearing iron armor rushed over. The middle-aged man in the head was wearing a red cloak and slashed straight towards Xu Hai with a long sword in his hand.

It is Zhejiang General Yu Dayou!

Xu Hai, who had ambushed Yu Dayou in Pinghu, was shocked. Yu Dayou was famous in Southeast Asia several years ago.

Xu Hai let go of the bloody soldier on his face with his left hand, holding a knife in both hands and storming upwards. With a blunt sound, Xu Hai's mouth was numb and unable to move forward. The middle-aged man opposite him pulled his sword and changed his moves. The long sword stabbed Xu Hai's chest like a long sword.

Xu Hai barely avoided the sideways, and was kicked and fell a few steps away. He didn't even need the treasure knife he bought with a lot of money, and he rolled and crawled back and fled.

Seeing this, the soldiers nearby shouted, and their morale was greatly boosted. The soldiers regardless of life and death, stabbed them straight with spears and slashed them down randomly, driving dozens of Japanese pirates out of the formation.

More than a dozen crackling sounds of shooting sounded on the flanks. The Japanese pirates who had been fighting to the death finally could not bear such heavy losses and retreated.

"Swoosh!"

A long arrow penetrated the bloody battlefield, but unfortunately Xu Hai was very slippery, and the long arrow was nailed to the shoulders of the Japanese pirates beside him.

Yu Dayou threw away the long bow in disappointment, took the long sword handed over by the guards, and shouted loudly: "Reinforcements are coming, and all the Japanese pirates will be wiped out in this battle!"

Yu Dayou has a reputation of making plans and then fighting. This time he took the odds not to seize credit. The scouts sent out had to do two things.

First, Xu Hai fled to Lihai, and the scouts lit up the wolf smoke to report the news. Yu Dayou, who had prepared, led his army to rush to the valley to set up an ambush.

Second, Zhou Jihui went south to find the main force of the official army and went north to encircle Xu Hai as soon as possible.

At this moment, suddenly, an excited shout came from the back formation, "Sir, reinforcements have arrived!"

Yu Dayou looked back in surprise, how could the official army pursuing north emerge from behind?

A quarter of an hour later, Yu Dayou felt relieved and held hands with Zhejiang Governor Wu Baipeng, "White brother Xi arrived, the Japanese pirates had no way to survive!"
