I, Jiajing, successfully cultivated immortality

Chapter 19 The Battle of Quanzhou (3)

The two sides fought hand-to-hand, and Yang Zongtai slashed and killed several Japanese pirates with a knife. He wiped the blood splattered on his face, his arms were exhausted, he gritted his teeth, and rejoined the battle.

Soldiers on both sides of the battle continued to fall. Although the defenders of Quanzhou City were extremely brave, they were still no match for the enemy army several times their own size. As soon as one was cut down, another group came up in the blink of an eye. The black pirates were like locusts. Quanzhou City rushed.

Pulling out the long knife from the corpse, Yang Zongtai led the remaining soldiers to fight and retreat, and finally repelled the vanguard of the Japanese pirates, and retreated to the wall of sheep and horses. Looking around, there were only less than 350 soldiers left from the previous [-] soldiers. .

"Where's Zhang Zongwei? Call him over!"

"My lord, Zhang Qianhu died in the enemy line just now." A mournful voice came out.

Yang Zongtai remained silent, wiped off the blood stains on the long knife on the official uniform, and looked at the remaining soldiers, almost all of the remaining soldiers were injured.

"This is our last attack! In the future, when we arrive at the Palace of the King of Hell, our brothers will meet the King of Hell, and we will have something to say, right?"

"Hahaha." The laughter of soldiers came from around.

"Pass my order and kill me!"

"Kill!"

Seeing the less than 100 guards charging towards his large army, Xu Hai, who had been calm since the start of the battle, couldn't help showing excitement and clenched his fists tightly.

As long as the last troops in Quanzhou City are wiped out, Quanzhou City can be successfully occupied. At that time, under the cover of other fleets at sea, the sea area of ​​the Ming Dynasty will be like a no-man's land for him.

"Notify the brothers that after the remnants of the Ming army are wiped out, the entire Quanzhou City will be allowed to be plundered." Xu Hai put down his binoculars and instructed Chen Dong who was beside him.

"Yes, brothers, kill me! Go in, rich and beautiful women, you can choose."

"Hahaha."

And Chen Dong couldn't hold back for a long time. Almost the moment he received the order, he grabbed a horse and charged forward. In his eyes, those remaining Ming army troops were lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and he had to do it. The most important thing is to be the first to rush into the city and snatch the most treasures and beauties.

'Bang bang bang! There was a volley of gunfire from behind Chen Dong, and the greedy expression on his face was completely frozen, and he fell off the horse.

Behind them, a row of neatly lined up Ming soldiers appeared. They all held firecrackers in their hands, like gods of death, ruthlessly reaping the lives on the battlefield.

"No, it's the Ming army!"

"Everyone, run!"

When the Japanese pirates who charged forward saw the defenders and reinforcements arriving, they immediately lost their positions and began to disperse in all directions.

"Don't worry, don't mess up the formation!"

When Xu Hai saw the Ming army's reinforcements arriving, panic flashed across his face, and he tried to regroup the team. He knew very well that the current siege strategy was completely bankrupt. If it collapses, there will be ten deaths and no life.

'Bang bang bang! Another round of volley, more Japanese pirates fell, and the fear of death is contagious, I saw the Japanese pirates discarded their weapons one after another, making a mess, running like a ball!From time to time, people fell to the ground and were trampled to death. Moans and cries could be heard endlessly.

Seeing the arrival of the reinforcements, Yang Zongtai couldn't help crying with joy, and then said loudly: "Brothers, follow me! Kill the Japanese pirates and avenge the dead brothers!"

Then he led the remnant soldiers to slash and kill the scattered and fleeing Japanese pirates, and the Japanese pirates who lost their fighting spirit were chopped down to the ground like melons and vegetables.

Seeing that the situation was irretrievable, Xu Hai snatched a horse and was about to run away when someone pulled him off the horse and fell heavily to the ground.

"You guys!" Xu Hai fell badly, and when he regained his strength, he realized that the person who stopped him was his personal guard who stood by his side day and night.

"Boss, I'm sorry! I also want to live, so don't blame my brother for being cruel."

The person who spoke stabbed Xu Hai with a knife, and Xu Hai lost consciousness.

More and more Ming soldiers appeared around, and all the Japanese pirates who fled before were caught up and killed. Seeing that the situation was settled, Yang Zongtai rested tiredly on a big rock.

……

"General, the last general has just captured a few prisoners, and they said they have something important to inform you!"

"Let them in."

In the temporary camp of the Japanese pirates, Qi Jiguang was carefully reading the letters left by the leader Xu Hai and Chen Dong, without any expression on his face, and the previous Japanese pirates had been killed, and now the Ming army was cleaning the battlefield everywhere .

"General, the person has been brought."

After the words fell, several prisoners were sent to Qi Jiguang.

"It was you who said you had something important to inform me just now?" Qi Jiguang didn't look up, but said indifferently.

"Yes, General, we have captured the leader of the pirates, Xu Hai."

"Then there is another Chen Dong?"

"Chen Dong was beaten to death by a firecracker, and his body was trampled to such an extent that we couldn't recognize him anymore."

Qi Jiguang couldn't help frowning when he heard that: "Then hand over Xu Hai."

"It's not impossible to hand over Xu Hai, it's just my wealth and life..."

"Do you think you are qualified to negotiate terms with me? If you talk more nonsense, I'll kill you right away!" Qi Jiguang looked murderously at the people kneeling on the ground.

"Don't dare, Xu Hai was hidden by us in the tent over there, covered with a black cloth, and asked the general to spare our lives!" followed by a crisp kowtow.

"Go and see if the person is there!" Qi Jiguang ordered to the guards outside the tent.

After a while, the guard hurried back to report.

"General, the man is indeed there! He is now under our control."

"Okay, very good! Pull these people down and cut them down." Qi Jiguang said to the soldiers beside him with a calm expression.

"You don't speak faith!" The man dragged down by the soldiers struggled and angrily shouted.

"Do you have any promises of faith with you Japanese pirates? Besides, this general has not agreed to your conditions from the beginning to the end. The crimes you have committed, you can't be exaggerated if you are killed alive, let it go!"

"Please spare our lives... ah!" The begging stopped abruptly.

……

"General, we found something when we were cleaning the battlefield..." A guard entered the tent with a perplexed expression on his face.

"Oh, what did you find?"

"General, my subordinates dare not speak out, please go and have a look!"

Immediately, Qi Jiguang followed the guards to the location of the things.

"This... This is my Da Ming's Fran cannon! It looks like new, how could it be in the hands of Japanese pirates?"

When Qi Jiguang saw the "thing" his soldiers were pointing at, his expression changed instantly.

"Does anyone else know here except you?" Qi Jiguang calmed down and asked his own soldiers.

"General, no one else knows about this place except us."

"Well, you guard here, and no one is allowed to approach! I will report this to Governor Hu immediately." Qi Jiguang nodded and ordered to his subordinates.

"Yes!" All the soldiers took orders.

After Qi Jiguang returned to the big tent, the joy of winning the battle was no longer on his face, he looked solemn, took out a pen and paper, and wrote down the whole process of the battle.

After a long time, Qi Jiguang stopped writing, summoned his personal guards, and said: "Be sure to send this battle report to Governor Hu!"

"Yes." The personal guard took the battle report, mounted his horse, and disappeared into the camp.
