Chapter 501: Defeating the Wakos
"Yaga!" At this moment, he suddenly heard a strange scream and subconsciously looked up.
I saw a guy in a strange costume jumping from the side of the ship, the long knife in his hand held high above his head.
"Poof!" There was a muffled sound, and before the soldier could react, his head was split in half.
At this moment, more than a dozen pirates jumped off the side of the ship, raised their knives and killed the soldiers next to them.
This is the first time Liu Qing has seen the Dongying people, and I saw that they are extremely short, most of them are less than five feet tall, just like half-grown children, but they are all very strong. Most of them are wearing loose samurai uniforms, with arms and feet. The faces are not much different from those of the Central Plains, but the shape is really ugly, and the heads on the top of their heads are shaved clean, either leaving the sides or tying them up in the back.
These people are obviously well-trained, the slender knives in their hands are extremely sharp, and their shots are also very ruthless. They are like big horse monkeys, with amazing jumping power, and the most common move is to jump high and split a person's head in half.
"Kill them!" Seeing that it only took a few breaths, fifty or sixty Dongying pirates climbed up on the ship, and Liu Qing pointed at them and ordered loudly.
With his command, the door of the cabin opened, and more than a hundred people rushed out of it, killing the pirates without saying a word.
These people are all old brothers on Fire Dragon Island, they are all old bandits, and their skills are not weak, and they have been training for nearly two years, and their strength has reached a higher level. Liu Qing thought that with their skill and the advantage of three times the number of pirates, it would be easy to exterminate those fifty or sixty pirates. But the facts surprised him, the people on both sides were actually inseparable, and they were not equal.
What Liu Qing didn't know was that those pirates were all real Dongying warriors, a group of people who took combat as their profession and duels as their daily routine, and their combat effectiveness was much stronger than that of his brothers. In addition, when this group of inland river soldiers first came to the sea, at least half of them were very uncomfortable, and various physical conditions occurred, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced, so such a situation would occur.
And the soldiers are very unsuitable for the playing style of these Dongying dwarfs, they are short, they are naturally very flexible, and the degree is also fast, and they all greet the soldiers in the lower three ways, so that the soldiers are overwhelmed. It was often necessary to kill a pirate by killing two or three soldiers.
The phenomenon on Liu Qing's ship was not unique, after several other ships shot more than a hundred pirates with bows and crossbows, they were all climbed up by the pirates, and they all fell into a bitter battle.
The Fire Dragon King looked at the more than 100 dragon spirits and fierce pirates on the ship with a gloomy face, and secretly exclaimed, there were far more pirates than he imagined, there were six or seven hundred people, and God knows how those twenty or so search ships were loaded.
"These people are so raw!" Fire Dragon King
was even more surprised by their combat effectiveness, "Huo Geng, you lead people to kill them too!" ”
"Okay Dad!" Huo Geng, who had been waiting for a long time next to him, happily agreed, and hurriedly rushed into the battle group with people.
"Big horse monkey, your grandfather is here!" He really didn't know what words to use to describe these ugly fellows, and he used a word that he thought was the most appropriate.
As soon as he finished speaking, the horizontal knife in his hand quickly slashed at a pirate.
The pirate was a black-bearded guy with a ring on his upper lip, and he was stout and full of flesh. Seeing Huo Geng's horizontal sword coming, a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes, and the katana in his hand met it with force.
"Click!" With a crisp sound, the pirate's face lit up, and he was confident that the sharp katana in his hand had cut off the enemy's weapon.
But suddenly there was a pain in his body, and he lowered his head in astonishment, and saw clearly that the katana in his hand had broken in two, and the enemy's weapon had sunk deep into his chest. Before he could say anything, as soon as his legs went limp, he collapsed.
Pulling the knife from the pirate's chest, Huo Geng was about to cry in distress. The horizontal sword in his hand is a real Hundred Refining Treasure Sword, which is the steel made by Akagi's latest steelmaking method, and it has been carefully forged. Now there was a gap the size of a grain of rice on it, which made Huo Geng feel distressed and angry.
"Bastard, you're all going to die!" He roared and rushed into the enemy group like crazy, the horizontal knife in his hand flew up and down, killing three or four people in an instant.
Seeing the courage of the young general, the morale of the soldiers was greatly boosted, and they all lifted their spirits, and the pirates were defeated and retreated.
"Daimyo, the battle is over!" Heian Tai watched as his samurai continued to climb onto the enemy ships, and said confidently, "If our Taira's subordinates were all samurai like this, then Genji wouldn't have to worry. ”
Thinking of Genji, who has always been competing with them in the country, Heian said indignantly.
The Genji clan is another powerful family in the Dongying Kingdom, and like the Taira clan, they also occupy half of the land near Gyeonggi Province. In fact, the current Dongying Kingdom is in the hands of these two families. Their emperor has been reduced to an ornament. If it weren't for the constant open and secret fighting between these two families, I'm afraid there would be no need to exist.
"Genji, a bunch of old-fashioned old guys." Hearing Ping An Tai mention the family's biggest enemy, Ping Qingsheng smiled disdainfully, "I heard that Yuan Mingtong hooked up with his aunt again, is it really fake?" ”
Yuan Mingtong, like Taira Kiyomori, is also the best young man in their respective families. The difference is that Ping Qingsheng is brave and powerful, but Yuan Mingtong is witty. Another characteristic of this person is that he is romantic, relying on his handsome and abnormal, he has been hooking up in the capital since he was sixteen years old.
From fifty old women to ten-year-old girls, they never let go. In Dongying Gyeonggi Province, this person has no scruples, and there are many rumors that he violates ethics and does not taboo meat and vegetables.
"Don't the daimyo know this person yet? I believe it must be true. Heian said with a laugh.
The two of them chatted unscrupulously about some strange things in the ship, and it was extremely relaxed, as if they were not on the battlefield at all.
"Heian Tai, it seems like a long time has passed!" I don't know how long it took, but Ping Qingsheng felt that something was wrong and hurriedly looked at the battlefield.
His eyes widened in disbelief suddenly, and he saw more than a dozen of his men jumping out of the ship nearest to him, the seafalcon.
Defeated?
He was startled by his own thoughts, and he turned his head in disbelief to look at the other ships, only to see that all of them66 jumped down from his hundreds of men, and the enemy was clearly not willing to let them go, and countless crossbowmen appeared on both sides of the ship, shooting his men continuously. And the angled levers that kept smashing his ships.
"Eight Tooth Road! What is the situation! He looked angrily at Heian Tai, hoping that he would give an explanation.
Ping An Tai was also stunned, with a look of disbelief, they had been robbing this sea area for several years, and they had never seen the situation in front of them.
"It's coming, Daimyo, let's get out of here!" Seeing the two sea falcon warships smash the two of their ships again and rush straight towards them, Heian Tai finally came to his senses and cried out in horror.
"Yaga, what are you panicking about?" Ping Qingsheng was very dissatisfied with Ping Antai's panic, and cursed, still staring at Liu Qing's ship. Crossbow bolts and fireballs kept coming at him, and he didn't move. Just looking at the boldness, this person is definitely not ordinary.
When Liu Qing's sea falcon was less than fifty feet away from him, he finally saw the situation on the ship clearly. It was not at all the same as the Central Plains escort warship he had seen before, and it was full of soldiers.
"It's a trap! Jin family, I remember you! Only then did he realize that he had been deceived, "Anchor! ”
After that, he sat back in his seat and closed his eyes to recuperate.
On the surface, it didn't matter, but his heart was dripping blood, and he lost more than 400 samurai in one battle, which was a big loss for their Ping clan. He began to think about how to explain it to his family.
Ping An Tai hurriedly ordered his subordinates loudly, closed the ship and started quickly, and flew to the northeast to escape.
"Damn it!" Seeing that Guan Chuan was a mile away in the blink of an eye, and couldn't catch up, Liu Qing slapped the railing angrily.
This time, his men suffered serious losses, and fifty or sixty pirates inflicted more than eighty casualties on him. In the end, he personally went into battle and drove the pirates down.
