Chapter 920: Leopard Kills
These two originally simple, kind, and timid little soldiers, because they had no money to send money to adults, and they were afraid of being beaten by the board, so they had to steal chickens together. But this year, Nishimura's chickens have already been robbed, and they didn't even leave a single chicken feather for the two. The two of them had to go further to the East Village to steal, this is really a long way to go, I will go up and down and seek. Just as the two were looking up and down for a chicken in a villager's yard, the chicken was also jumping up and down. So the two decided to use a strategy, and began to disperse, detour, and outflank again, and annihilated the chicken. The two of them encircled a chicken, and seeing that they were about to succeed, the chicken had nowhere to escape, and suddenly there was a loud noise, and the rooster in front of them suddenly rose into the air, and even the dirt flew up several feet, and then looked at the chicken and instantly went up to the roof.
Such a scene seemed to be a little terrifying, so frightened that Liu Xiaoliu's mother screamed and collapsed on the ground and asked, "What's the matter, did that chicken fart just now?" Why is there such a big movement? Qiu Jin also sat on the ground, convulsed and cried: "Brother, it's not a chicken's fart, this is someone shooting at us." Liu Xiaoliu said with a blank expression: "What kind of thing is this, didn't you just steal a chicken, and you won't be bombarded by a cannon!" ”
The two of them were beginning to feel guilty for stealing chickens, but the punishment was more, and more shells fell around the two, Liu Xiaoliu hurriedly pulled up the Qiu tendon who was still sitting on the ground with cramps and said, "Don't cry, run!" This is an enemy attack. After speaking, he dragged Qiu Jian over the wall and ran to Qiding Mountain.
Liugong Island is like a big turtle, narrow from north to south, 1.5 kilometers wide at the widest point, and the cliff in the north is Qiding Mountain, which is like a big turtle shell, covering Liugong Island. The topography of the whole island is steep in the north and gentle in the south, with a length of 4.08 kilometers from east to west, and the narrowest point of the east and west is only 60 meters. The west side is like **, and Huangdao is above **, like the upper jaw of this big turtle. The east side is like Gumi, and the eastern fort is here. The West Village and the East Village are like the turtle's ** and navel eyes, of course, these two organs are not the standard configuration of the turtle, we just want to make a visual analogy. The coastline of Liugong Island has a circumference of 15 kilometers, an area of 3.15 square kilometers, and the highest point is 153.5 meters above sea level. The whole island is densely wooded, with black pine as the main tree.
When the first shell landed in Dongcun, several soldiers in the watchtower on the eastern fort of Liugong Island were gambling and playing dice. The rumbling of cannon fire was drowned out in their loud voices, so that none of the concentrated fellows could hear the movement outside. At this moment, the dealer's bowl had just been buckled on the table, and the man with his bare chest and back was gesturing with his hand for everyone to bet. Another moment the shell landed not far from the battery, and the shockwave tore the bowl open. The dealer shouted: "Haha, the leopard kills!" He was about to collect the silver on the table, but another cannonball landed more than ten meters outside, and the dice points changed, and the others stopped doing it. Hey, hey, what's the matter, are you optimistic, is that a leopard? Grab money if you want! The dealer said, "What is it that is not a leopard?" So everyone looked at the dice, but the puzzling thing was that the dice kept changing. This made everyone begin to concentrate on checking the starting point to "13, 9, 4, 3, 7, no call, no turn on." "What the hell is this? I saw the dice jumping like a nervous disorder, and among all the gamblers' doubts, there was one of the most shrewd, and slowly said: "We seem to be attacked!" A cannonball that fell on the top of the watchtower replied: "Boom! Click! "With the sound of dust tearing and falling, people seem to get a 'yes' affirmative answer in the sound." Kill! Run! The gamblers' dull eyes suddenly became pupils and began to dilate, and under a more terrifying expression, only the big man who had just sat in the bank was a gentleman, standing there motionless...... Nor do they speak. The other busy soldiers were running into walls everywhere, trying to find a crack in the ground to get out, but he still stood there motionless. At this time, someone found that there was a wardrobe in a corner of the watchtower, and this person rushed to the front to get in, and found that the wardrobe was full of sundries, and this person took advantage of the situation to skim out the sundries, and just smashed on the back of the banker. The big man who was as strong as a mountain actually fell, and was knocked down by a few objects as light as goose feathers. It turned out that he was not calmly motionless, but was so frightened that he couldn't move, and now he was lying on the ground, and the soup was dripping all over the ground.
From beginning to end, the artillery on the eastern battery of the Qing army only fired one shell to fire back at the Ming battleship, and the sixteen soldiers on duty on the battery were all lost before they came to stand guard. Seeing the enemy's attack, they subconsciously loaded and fired a cannonball, and the cannonball also hit wherever it went, and there was no aim at all. Unexpectedly, as soon as the first shot was fired, several people regretted it, they thought: Why fight back, why don't we get back the lost money with such a good opportunity. So after a few people discussed it, they made a decision, and then they took off their underwear as a white flag hand in hand, and surrendered in a row. Zhang Ying, the commander of the Ming landing force, had never seen such a desperate surrender, they braved the artillery fire of the Ming army to advance, advance again, risk death to charge to the coast and then fall to their knees in rows. Zhang Ying looked stupid, and hurriedly told the commander of the sailor: "Don't waste the shells, I guess there is no one guarding this fort at all, let me rush up and take a look." So the artillery fire stopped, and after Zhang Ying landed with a group of people, he walked in front of the sixteen surrendered Qing troops. I really feel that it is not easy for them to charge this section of the road one by one, and they are all smoked into Jinhua ham with black powder. Zhang Ying took out a rag to wipe off the mud on the foreheads of several nearby soldiers, and then touched it with his hand with a little maternal love, and then touched his head, and found that no one had a fever, and finally concluded that his thermometer was broken. At this time, a ten-person commander in the Qing army called Qu Lai: "Ask the general to be the master of the small ones, the small ones have all the money in the watchtower, and the team in the watchtower has won out, please ask the general to help the little ones win back, ah no, it's to grab it back." Zhang Ying was so angry that he scolded in his heart: "You guys are treating me as a bandit, right, the bandits also pay attention to the way of heaven, what is the matter with you rotten garlic going into the watchtower to grab money!" The chief still wanted to speak, but was kicked away by Zhang Ying, and then Zhang Ying led the team to rush to the watchtower, and several Qing army Xiaoloulou behind him were not tied up, so they also followed Zhang Ying to kill back, and picked up stones on the side of the road while running.
