The morale of Taiping County Town was completely shattered by the Japanese pirates, and everyone on the city wall was full of fear of the Japanese pirates.
The Japanese pirates are too strong. Not only are bows and arrows ineffective against them, but they will also let you catch the arrows with your bare hands. How can we resist?!
Everyone's mentality has collapsed.
The city walls were filled with an atmosphere of negativity and fear, and there was a feeling that dark clouds were closing in on the city.
I don’t know, how would they feel if they knew that the Japanese pirates they faced were not in their strongest form, but were disabled by Jingnan? How would they feel if Taiping were in Jingnan’s original position?!
"No! If this continues, we won't be able to defend this city even if we want to!"
Xiahou County Magistrate noticed the low morale and the atmosphere of fear on the city wall and frowned.
"A dignified seven-foot-tall man was mocked by a six-foot-tall Japanese cavalry. It's really humiliating. It's a disgrace to our ancestors. Everyone present, who has some sense? Stand up and follow me to fight for a while."
!Kill the little dwarf’s majesty!!! Let the little dwarf Japanese pirates know how powerful we are in Taiping!!!!”
The Prime Minister of Xiahou County ripped open his official uniform, bare his chest, and shouted loudly to everyone. His eight-pack abs and all his tendon flesh shone in the sun, and he looked like he was a frequent martial arts practitioner.
"I'll go with you!"
A monk with a scar on his forehead walked out of the crowd, holding a Zen staff in his hand.
"And Xiaosheng."
A scholar walked out of the crowd with a long sword on his waist.
"Including me, I am a bodyguard who works as a escort. I have practiced a lot of kung fu on weekdays. I guarantee that I will not embarrass you."
A man dressed as an escort walked out immediately, wearing a hat on his head, an iron chain around his waist, and holding a large ring knife.
Soon, after the Xiahou County Prime Minister finished speaking, a total of thirty people walked out of the crowd.
"Okay, they are all good men! Come on, follow me down and fight for a while. Scholar, forget it, you are still"
Xiahou County Magistrate did not expect that at this time, more than thirty people would dare to follow him to fight. He nodded with satisfaction. However, when he walked to the scholar, Xiahou County Magistrate hesitated and said. Xiahou County Magistrate admired the scholar's courage.
, but I am not confident about his strength. The purpose of going to fight this time is to restore morale. To fight a beautiful surprise battle, those who follow me to fight must not only have courage, but also strength. If the strength is not enough, they will not be able to defeat the city.
The Japanese pirates who carry heads outside to show off their power are contrary to their original intentions.
"Haha, Mr. Xiahou, the reason why Xiaosheng failed is because he spends all his time on this swordsmanship. Sir, you can rest assured, Xiaosheng's skill with the sword is much deeper than the skill with the pen and ink."
The scholar smiled slightly, then he raised his sword and held a sword flower, showing off his excellent swordsmanship.
"good!"
The Prime Minister of Xiahou County couldn't help but clapped his hands and applauded. An expert would know if there was a sword as soon as he made a move. The scholar's excellent swordsmanship could be seen from the scholar's sword flower.
"The purpose of leaving the city this time is to kill the twelve Japanese pirates running around with their heads outside the north gate and boost the morale in the city. Once the attack is successful, retreat immediately and not give the Japanese pirates a chance to follow them into the city." Xiahou County
Cheng said to everyone.
"clear."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
The magistrate of Xiahou County once again gave instructions to the gatekeepers, telling them to be on guard against Japanese pirates, but that was not possible. He would rather lock them all outside the city gate than give the Japanese pirates a chance to chase them into the city.
After drinking and throwing bowls, the Prime Minister of Xiahou County ordered his people to open the north gate, carry a long knife, and lead more than 30 death squads to rush out of the city and directly kill the Japanese pirates outside the city who were carrying heads to show off their power and intimidation.
These Japanese pirates running around carrying heads were out of touch with the Japanese pirates behind them. This was the opportunity that Xiahou County Magistrate saw.
"Kill!"
The Xiahou County Magistrate shouted and rushed out of the city first. He was very fast and struck at the Japanese pirates like a bolt of lightning, with a knife in the head.
"How brave! Here comes the one looking for death!"
The Japanese pirates did not expect that anyone would dare to escape from the city at this time. However, although they were surprised, they were not afraid at all. There was still more than five meters from the city gate to them. This five meters distance was enough for him to react.
The Japanese pirate stood up and blocked Xiahou County Cheng's life-threatening knife. However, he did not expect that Xiahou County Cheng's power was so great. This knife slashed him back more than one meter. Xiahou County Cheng had the advantage with his sword and struck him one after another.
He struck three swords, just like the waves of the sea, one wave was higher than the other, and each sword was heavier than the last sword. After three swords, the Japanese pirates showed their weakness and revealed their fatal flaws. Xiahou County Prime Minister keenly grasped the Japanese pirates' flaws and struck hard
He kicked the Japanese pirate in the waist, knocked the Japanese pirate to the ground, and then slashed his head with a knife!
After hacking a Japanese pirate to death, the Xiahou County Magistrate took the time to look at the others. Well, the others performed well. Although there were more people and fewer people were beaten, five more people were killed by the Japanese pirates, but there were six Japanese pirates lying on the ground.
There are only five Japanese pirates left.
"Kill! We must fight quickly before the Japanese pirates react."
Xiahou County Magistrate shouted and joined the battle with a long sword dripping with blood.
"The county magistrate is mighty!"
"Kill, you bastard!"
Everyone on the north gate city wall saw the scene of Xiahou County Prime Minister and others killing the Japanese pirates, and couldn't help shouting. The sluggish morale gradually recovered and improved as Xiahou County Prime Minister and others killed the enemy with blood.
While the Xiahou County magistrate and others were fighting bloody battles outside the north gate of Taiping, the soldiers of the magistrate Wangzhi at the south gate carried weapons and plundered 200 taels of gold, 3,000 taels of silver, baskets of jewelry, and baskets of silver in Taiping County.
calligraphy, painting, jewelry, and forcibly confiscated silks and fabrics from five cloth shops in the county, enough to load two large carts.
Not only that, Wangzhi County also ordered the three best restaurants in the county to prepare ten tables of delicacies from the mountains and seas as quickly as possible.
Wang Zhixian presented these gold and silver jewelry, silks and cloths, and delicacies as gifts to the Japanese pirates, and had them sent to the city on ropes. At the same time, he also sent his confidant butler to the city on ropes.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me. If the two countries are at war, I will not kill the envoy. I am here to meet your king on the order of the county magistrate."
After the housekeeper was sent off the city wall, he immediately fell to his knees on the ground, shouting and begging the Japanese pirates for mercy.
Soon, the housekeeper and the gifts were delivered to the Japanese pirate leader Heihachiro.
"Tell me, the county magistrate sent you to see the governor. Why?"
The leader of the Japanese pirates, Heihachiro, faced a display filled with gold and silver jewels, silks and cloths, and delicacies from the mountains and seas. There was no wave on his face at all. He sat arrogantly on a big stone, looked down at the housekeeper, and asked lightly.
"The little one has met the king. The king is a thousand years old. The county elder asked the little one to say hello to the king. The county elder said that the king led an army to visit the small county. The small county is honored and prosperous. The king has worked hard all the way.
, the county magistrate sent the young ones to bring these gifts to the king and reward the army. The county magistrate said that the small county was shabby and poor, and he was afraid that the reception would not be good enough, so he wanted to ask the king to move the army to other counties for food. For example, Jingnan, Ninghai, Jinghai
The two counties of Nan and Ninghai are just next door to the small county. They are rich in resources and people, and are as rich as Taizhou Prefecture. They are more than ten times richer than the small county. They are worthy of feeding the king's army."
As soon as the housekeeper saw Heihachiro, he prostrated himself to the ground and paid homage, and said flatteringly to Heihachiro.
