Chapter 188. The red blood of the moon is redder

The whole beach is splendid.

Countless flowering bombs, shrapnel bombs, and grape bombs release the most brilliant value of their lives in the sky above Linhaiwei, and the explosive shrapnel and unrestrained shotguns are like blooming lotus flowers, which are very beautiful in the night sky.

However, underneath the beautiful exterior lies a brutal death!

"Ahhhhh!!hh

In the midst of the screams, a group of guards who had just run out of the barracks crawled all over the ground like pear blossoms in a rainstorm of shotguns, crackling projectiles easily smashed through the flesh and bone marrow, and viscous blood was filled.

In the corner of the wall, a Ming soldier with a broken leg looked blankly at the devastation in front of him, and suddenly, a grotesque smile appeared on his face.

"It's blooming, it's beautiful, hehe!"

Next to the stupid soldier, another of his comrades reached forward in despair.

"No !!"

Under the roar, the pillars that had been burned and completely brittle collapsed, and in the sound of a small uproar, the watchtower weighing several tons collapsed with a bang, and in front of the rubble, only a bloody hand remained.

These guards of Linhaiwei are actually very pitiful, oppressed by the commander, have no military salary, and even have to carry more than half of the taxes of the Ming Empire, but their existence is also the basis for those Jiangnan scholars to be powerful, they are Mao Jue's enemies, this battlefield, there are no innocents!

"How is that possible?"

Standing on the observation tower of the Acropolis, the commander who was already over fifty years old made Wu Mengqi's dizzy old eyes look at the sea blankly, the distance was too far, in the dark night, he could only see the anger of the heavy artillery spraying one after another, what people, what ships, and this was a hazy, under the cover of artillery fire, a piece of Japanese people rushed up to the beach in the morning, and the banner of the Great Bodhisattva of Hachiman, which represented death, was flying fiercely.

After decades in the army, this old guy has seen the last splendor of the Ming Dynasty in the Wanli period, and he has also fought with the Japanese of the Longqing Dynasty, but this hellish artillery fire, he has seen it for the first time in his life, and it is also the first time that he has been so completely swallowed by fear.

"Commander! The Japanese invaders have landed, and Zhao Qian has asked for instructions, whether to fight immediately? ”

"Commander!"

The herald who ran up in panic shouted three times, and the old man came back to his senses, but in the next second, before the herald soldiers breathed a sigh of relief, something terrifying happened to him, this veteran who had been in the army for decades ran down the tower at a speed that was not inferior to that of a young man, grabbed a horse, and disappeared into the night sky, watching all this in amazement for a few seconds, throwing down the knife and armor, and the little soldier also snatched it.

Seventeen minutes after the shelling, the Linhaiwei of Shaoxing Mansion fell violently, and the road to Shaoxing Huiji in the south and Lin'an in Hangzhou in the north was abruptly opened.

In the distance, it seemed that the beast roar of the Japanese soldiers could be heard, and the hand that had been holding the little hand in plain clothes finally let go, took off the knife hanging on the wall, raised his hand and put on the cloak and robe, Mao Jue's eyes were also red, and he walked out.

But at this time, a sigh was like the first dawn that pierced the sky, and finally sounded in Mao Jue's ears, and in the long eyelashes trembling, Su Yi finally opened her closed eyes, and with a bang, the knife was thrown directly to the ground, and Mao Jue ran back in two quick steps, holding her hand tremblingly.

"You're awake!"

"Young ......, young master......"

The small and bloodless red lips trembled weakly, and a smile bloomed on the pale little face of the plain clothes with difficulty, and at the first glance, the excitement made the weak body of this Liaodong girl tremble.

"Great, Su Yi ......, Su Yi knows, young master, young master, you will definitely not die! Definitely not!"

Her smile was like the bright smile of an angel that he would never forget. The hand slowly stroked away a few strands of messy hair stuck to Su Yi's forehead, Mao Jue's voice was so soft that even he couldn't believe it, and he was smiling and comforting.

"Young Master is here! It's okay! It's okay! Sleep peacefully, tomorrow, we will go back to Liaodong!"

"Hmmm......"

Although sometimes she will lose her temper and eat a little flying vinegar, but for Su Yi, Mao Jue is her whole world, in Mao Jue's pampering, a trace of tiredness hit her bright eyes again, nodded a little brain melon, Su Yi obediently closed her eyes, but before Mao Jue breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly again, she opened her eyes suddenly.

"Young master, where is Qin Niang?"

Mao Jue trembled unconsciously.

"Sleep in peace, she's fine, and when you're well, you'll be able to see her."

These days of torture, coupled with the fright of the day, Su Yi had a high fever, and in the exhaustion of her physical strength, she finally fell asleep again in Mao Jue's gentle soothing voice.

Stuffing her little hand back into the quilt, Mao Jue couldn't help wiping the sweat on her forehead, picked up the knife again, and walked out again, outside, Zheng Duo sat on Mao Jue's sofa, holding a medical scripture and looking at it, the old guy had dealt in medicinal materials in his early years, and he knew a lot about medical skills.

"General!"

Seeing Mao Jue come out, the old man closed the book, turned around and made a gesture, and asked suicidly.

"But the plain girl woke up?"

"Well, she woke up for a while, and her consciousness was also awake, and I did as you told her to let her go back to sleep."

"Well, as long as the girl in the clothes wakes up, then it's no big deal, and the master can rest easy."

Zheng Duo also showed a relaxed expression, however, the bitterness flashed on Mao Jue's face, and he shook his head heavily.

"But, she!"

Outside, on the big table, covered with a white cloth, you can vaguely see the figure of a girl, holding the head of the table, sighing, Mao Jue is fist smashed on the table, ignoring his hand to Li Shanhai, shaking the tiger's mouth burst.

And Su Yi's smile when he woke up also made him unforgettable, is that on the edge of Haining tide today, the girl who has been holding Su Yi until she died, she has a good heart, but in the end, Qin Niang still went forever in this way, Mao Jue's heart was like a thousand catties of boulder, pressed to death.

"General! The soldiers are ready to go ashore! ”

At the door, the deep and tough voice of the huge sea came in, and after one last glance, he grabbed the knife suddenly, and Mao Jue arched his fist at Zheng Duo.

"Don't worry, the old man is here, the girl in plain clothes won't have an accident!"

didn't speak again, and under Zheng Duo's return salute, he pushed open the door, and Mao Jue also went out suddenly.

"Here, the chicken heart is garbage! Wow, wow, wow, Hangzhou Smecta!"

The fire of the Acropolis has not been extinguished, and the large number of ronins is already striding forward with greed, a full three thousand real widows, short samurai riding even lower widows on both sides, and the leader of the ronin holding a knife and shouting loudly, these pirates are even more vigorous, and more than 10,000 Han smuggling merchants under the command of the mercenary armed forces are not far behind, those bankrupt households, ruffians and hooligans are walking excitedly, impatiently walking, for decades, The bandits of the East China Sea have never encountered a big leader like Wang Zhi, the owner of the Five Peaks, who has done great things with a big guy, and everyone's hearts are surging with flames.

Especially those wanderers, the darkness of the night could not hide the wild roar of their beasts, and the townspeople of the villages along the way did not dare to come out, and shrank in the quilt.

Behind this messy team, just like the ancient Spartans, the regular legion that has been extremely neat is also hurrying forward, speaking of which Mao Jue really humiliated Qi Jiguang, the heroic Yiwu soldiers who fought with the Japanese invaders at the beginning, but now they are using the Japanese as cannon fodder, rolling towards the city of Daming, crossing the knife in his waist, also carrying a gun, walking in front of the first and second regiments of the Southern Soldiers, Mao Jue's eyes are a piece of Xiao killing.

Those Jiangnan Shi clan, Donglin Party, Fushe, as well as those salt merchants and wealthy families who are closely related to these forces, now in his eyes, are all the way to these robbers! It's just that the Japanese robbers rely on knives to kill people and loot with knives, these wealthy families rely on Confucian etiquette and morality to kill, and rely on the high-sounding plagiarism in the "Analects".

Dog-eat-dog, no one deserves sympathy!

…………

Hangzhou, West Lake, Luojia Manor.

The quarrel continued, and the sound of boxes, cabinets, and thunderbolts toppling over, and the voice of an extremely impatient young man came from the room.

"Big sister? Are you sick? Moving in the middle of the night? Don't make a fuss, hurry up and give me five hundred taels of silver, Brother Wu is still waiting for me in the soft incense building! ”

Keep saying that you have yours, I have passed mine, this Luo Zhen is now stretching out his hand without a red face and a heartbeat, if in the past, Luo Ning had to talk to him twice, impatient, and finally had to give him the silver, but today, the face of the female shopkeeper, who has always been indifferent, was full of panic, while scolding the servants to quickly pack up their things, and on the other hand, she turned back and anxiously reprimanded this frivolous scholar.

"What else is the soft incense building? The Japanese have appeared in Haining! You also hurry back to pack your things, let's go quickly and go to the other courtyard in Huizhou to take refuge!"

"Oh, big sister, aren't they just some widows? There are 70,000 or 80,000 people in more than a dozen guards on the seaside, and there are 12 guards in Nanjing! A few widows, they will have to retreat in a few days!"

"Big sister, tonight is very important! Mr. Wu, Mr. Liu, Mr. Zhao, they are all here, and it is related to whether your brother and I can win the list of Hangzhou Mansion this year! At the critical moment, you can't make me embarrassed! Get the money!"

Full of impatience, Luo Zhen said hurriedly, but he didn't want his eldest sister to suddenly grab his shoulders with both hands like crazy, pull his collar and roar wildly.

"Don't you understand? What a wolf! It's General Mao Jue Mao! He's coming for revenge! If you don't leave, you, me, our entire Luo family, it's all over!"

"Big sister!"

Pushing her away indifferently, Luo Zhen smiled nonchalantly.

"You're really salty and don't worry about eating turnips! Mao Jue's eunuch dog thief has been removed by a few of our righteous people, and I am afraid that the corpse will be fed to Wang Ba. Take 10,000 steps back, even if this guy doesn't die, does he dare to offend Brother Wu, offend so many families in Jiangnan, and offend the Fushe? ”

On the scholar's face, the excited look became more and more intense, as if he saw his golden future, and Luo Zhen raised his hands arrogantly.

"Eldest sister, you just wait for your brother and me to be in high school, and then enter the capital to be a jinshi, and give our Luo family glory to our ancestors! Hurry up and get the money!"

"Xiao Zhen!"

Bitter mouth, Luo Ning still wanted to persuade something, who knew this kung fu, the fifth uncle of the Luo family who was wearing ingots was like a green rabbit, and ran in suddenly, as soon as he entered the yard, he lay directly on the ground, panting and kowtowing and shouting.

"Big ......, big miss! It's a big deal, under the courtyard, there are a lot of soldiers and soldiers, let's besiege our Zhuangzi, and there are cannons! You, you, you have to figure it out! ”

In an instant, the blood on Luo Ning's face disappeared, and he turned his head in horror, and Luo Jin's soft legs were already sitting on the ground.

Although the moon is not round tonight, but in the night sky, there is a layer of red clouds faintly floating, so that this Taiyin star is full of blood, and on the gun rack of the twelve-pounder marine artillery unique to the Dongjiang Iron Art Army, Mao Jue leaned on it gloomily, looking at the night coldly, the panicked Luojia Manor.

"Let's start here!"
