110 Kiyomoto Yamamoto collapses
The Japanese who survived this night of war will never forget that oppressive and terrifying image for the rest of their lives. In the blazing firelight, against the background of the dark night, there is a flag fluttering in the wind.
Inspired by this banner, tens of thousands of Chinese forgot about life and death and followed closely, and the whole team was silent and depressed, exuding a murderous aura as if it were substance.
Yamamoto's hands on the hillside were already shaking, and he was holding the handle of the sword so that the soldiers could not see that he was afraid. However, the soldiers around him did not have the same concentration as him, and the elite of the Shimazu family had been deprived of their morale in the battle just now, and the spear formation that had been barely formed now was far less solid than just now.
The footsteps of the Chinese on the street knocked on the ground in unison, like an earthquake, which made everyone's hearts tremble, and at this time, Ashigaru's eyes were full of horror, and many people subconsciously shrank back their bodies.
Xiao Letian stared at Yamamoto Qing on the hillside with contempt, and suddenly the corners of his mouth curled up, stretched out his left index finger and shook it in mid-air, which means that you can't do it. The moment he put his fingers down, Xiao Lotian suddenly burst into tears.
"Death Squad......!"
"Killing ......" was like a thunderstorm in the flat ground, and all the Chinese suddenly rushed wildly and launched a charge against the enemy's main position on the hillside.
Xiao Letian thought that he would be the first to rush up to fight, but he didn't know that the one who lacked virtue pulled him hard from behind, making him half a step slower. Immediately afterwards, Long Ye's figure rushed past him.
Before Xiao Letian could come to his senses, another hand pulled his clothes on his back, and then Shi Dakai also rushed in front of him. followed by Xiao Hexin, Sima Yun, and Luo Huo...... Almost everyone pulled Xiao Letian when they charged, and he was in the first position and stuffed him into the crowd.
Xiao Lotian was dragged around in the crowd, and people had only one purpose to protect him with their bodies.
"Oops...... You let me pass, you bastards let me pass......" It's a pity that no matter how much Xiao Letian struggles, he can't fight the collective behavior of tens of thousands of people, and the final result is that Xiao Letian was actually pulled to the back of the team, and he was getting farther and farther away from the enemy.
In the end, Xiao Lotian could see that these people would not let themselves take risks personally, so he simply jumped onto the stone platform on the side of the road, pointing in the direction of the fierce battle and loudly inspiring everyone.
"Fellow villagers, are we tens of thousands of Chinese still afraid of those small army formations of hundreds of people? rush up and crush them...... Charge! Charge......"
At this time, the elite of the green forest led by Long Ye and Shi Dakai had already collided with the enemy, only to see Long Ye dodge into the jungle of spears, grab a spear shaft with his left hand and snatch it from the soldier with a shake of his hand, and then fly straight into the sky. Xiang Shaolong performed the unique skill of entering the white blade empty-handed like a thousand-armed Guanyin, and in an instant, seven or eight spears were snatched over, and a gap suddenly appeared in the spear array.
Immediately behind, His Highness the Wing King and the Heavenly Veterans squeezed into the gap in the spear, and the sword flashed through the enemy's blood. At this time, the Chinese were already crazy, and they rushed into the spear formation regardless of life and death, even if they died, they would disrupt the enemy's formation.
Countless Chinese rushed forward to the spear formation, and the dead bodies hung on the tips of the spears so that those ashigaru had no time to shake them off. Layer after layer of corpses finally disrupted the rhythm of the spear formation's attack, and Yamamoto Kiyoshi's main formation completely collapsed.
At this time, Yamamoto Qing was already desperate, he held an iron gun to resist the swarming crowd, while slowly retreating, thinking that his reputation as a spear master could be in this battle, to get more heads, but I didn't expect that the green forest masters of the Qing Kingdom were all very difficult, but between a few flashes, Yamamoto Qing had several more wounds on his body.
Fortunately, the defense of the Nanban carcass is very high, and it protects the vital point, otherwise Yamamoto Kiyoshi will definitely support it, but it will only take three minutes.
"Ah...... Amaterasu bless, bless my martial arts for a long time......" Yamamoto Kiyoshi waved the iron spear like crazy, dispersing the green forest special forces in front of him, and howled in despair.
"Jade shattered, let's jade shattered here......" Yamamoto Kiyoshi was ready to fight back desperately, but his junior surname and the guards did not have such awareness, and rushed forward and pulled back like a dead dog.
"The proverb of the Qing Kingdom is good, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, let's go and join the old people of the Kayama family, our Japan has not lost, we still have soldiers and warships......" In the end, five or six samurai actually carried Yamamoto Kiyoshi and ran up the mountain, and after a few steps, they went into the alley and disappeared.
At this time, Xiao Letian was almost exhausted, and when he saw Yamamoto Kiyoshi's main formation collapse, when he saw Yamamoto Kiyoshi disappear, his legs were weak and he fell directly from the stone platform.
"Ah......" The crowd exclaimed, and the people closest to him suddenly rushed over, firmly supporting Xiao Letian with their shoulders.
"Mr. Xiao...... Lord Xiao ......" The crowd shouted desperately, waking up Xiao Letian, who was on the verge of sleep.
"I'm fine, I'm ......" Xiao Letian pushed everyone away and stood up hard, "The battle is not over yet, I can hold on!" Xiao Lotian took out his pocket watch and looked at it, it was a little more than five o'clock in the morning, the autumn days were getting shorter, and now there was no light in the east, but the darkest hour had passed, and dawn was just around the corner.
Xiao Lotian rushed to the front with the flag on his back and joined Shi Dakai and them, "It's not far from Shuri Castle now, as long as we can join forces with the Ryukyu Imperial Forest Army, as long as Shuri Castle is still under the control of our monk King Shangtai during the day tomorrow, this earth-shaking battle will be won......"
From the conflict that broke out at 11 o'clock in the middle of the night, it has been nearly six hours now, and in this cruel street battle and night battle, Xiao Lotian and his 100,000 Chinese people in the city can be said to have paved the road to victory with corpses and blood inch by inch.
The port of Naha has now been completely burned down, and the business and warehouse districts are among the hardest hit areas, and now there is not a single good storefront in sight, and the city is full of the roar of buildings being burned down. Naha in the blazing light can be seen clearly even on merchant ships dozens of nautical miles away.
"It may take a hundred years to build a Naha city, but it only takes one night to destroy him...... Xiao Lotian sighed with emotion, and suddenly from the back of the crowd, several figures rushed in, and took a closer look at the American businessman Mike Carnegie, as well as several guards he hired.
"Mr. Xiao, I have brought very bad news, now the main army of Kayama Ligen is heading towards Shuri Castle, and the vanguard is almost at the South Castle Gate......"
"It's broken! This old thing has seen through my plan, and he wants to take the first step to control the king of Shangtai...... "Xiao Lotian was in a hurry, and ordered the whole army to assault on the spot, and he must block the Japanese troops under Shuri Castle.
Just as Xiao Lotian was about to leave, Mike suddenly stopped him, "Xiao, I ran to the secret warehouses of more than ten foreign merchants this night, and found a total of fifty kilograms of gunpowder, I think you must use it......" After speaking, several Ryukyu native bodyguards behind Mike unloaded oiled paper bags from their backs, a total of ten packs of five kilograms each.
Xiao Letian's eyes lit up as soon as he saw it, and he rushed up to give a bear hug, "Mike, you are good, you have gained my friendship, as long as we can win, I will give you and your family the greatest reward......"
Mike is an enthusiastic and adventurous young American who has adapted to this melee environment, otherwise he would not have been able to collect so much gunpowder unscathed.
"Xiao, don't worry, I have one more thing to ask you......" Speaking of this, Mike suddenly hesitated for a moment, "I am in China, and I have heard a bizarre rumor that the assassination of His Excellency the President was rescued by an Oriental, I wonder if it will have anything to do with you, because the Oriental, in the rumors, is a scholar......"
Xiao Letian frowned and said angrily, "When is this, why do you still think about these useless things, if you want to know, I'll tell you when I get back!" After speaking, he turned his head and wanted to leave, but at this time, Mike grabbed him, "So you acquiesced? Great, do you have any tokens, you give it to me, I will go and ask the American merchant ships on the sea, they have cannons and muskets, as long as they shoot, you will win......"
Xiao Letian was stunned for a moment, "Are you kidding? Merchant ships will be involved in this kind of thing, didn't you see the light signal that they were guarding neutrality just now?"
"Hopefully, I'm talking about a hope, do you understand? As long as you have a token, I have at least sixty percent hope to move them, if you don't even dare to try, that's the biggest failure......" Mike said angrily, "There is such a powerful force on the surface of the sea, but you don't try to use it, this is stupid!"
Xiao Lotian didn't expect that he would let a foreign devil give him a lesson, and he actually forgot to fight back in the process of being stunned. However, the soldiers around Xiao Letian heard that the foreign devil's tone was not good, and although they couldn't understand English, they also wanted to rush up and beat him.
In the end, Xiao Lotian shook his head, "I was defeated by you, even if what you said makes sense...... Master Long, you carry the revolver of the 'Imperial Gift' to protect Mr. Mike to the sea, remember that Mr. Mike's safety is the most important. ”
"My lord, what should you do...... Xiang Shaolong was very worried about his safety, but Xiao Letian raised his hand and pointed to the boundless crowd and said, "With 100,000 Chinese as the backing, what are you worried about......?"
Long Ye didn't dare to refute, and took three or four of his men to escort Mike into the darkness, and in his arms lay the Colt pistol that he regarded as a treasure.
At the beginning of the battle, the situation has become clearer, and the battle goal of both the enemy and us is very clear, that is, as long as Shuri Castle controls King Shangtai by force and occupies the righteous position, it will be able to occupy the commanding heights in the later diplomatic war.
Xiao Lotian saw it clearly, and Kayama Kurigen saw it even more clearly, this important minister of the Shimazu family had now led the team to the south gate of Shuri Castle, that is, the gate with the largest open space area and the most able to open the military formation.
The sudden appearance of Kayama Kuriten caused a panic among the Ryukyu Imperial Forest Army on the city wall, and the fear accumulated over hundreds of years even made them dare not look directly at the Japanese.
"The soldiers in the city listen, please inform Your Majesty, just say that the old Birakiyama Kurigen of the Shimazu family has come to protect the royal family, please open the city gate and let the friendly troops enter......" The voice of the birakama Kuri Yuan spread far and wide like a bell, and the soldiers on the city wall did not dare to slack off and hurriedly reported to King Shangtai. K
