Chapter 638: Don't Lie to Me!
The mountains and forests of Taiyuan Island are densely wooded, and there are many poisonous insects, snakes and ants. Even the local natives are often bitten and can die immediately if they are not treated.
In this dense mountain forest, there are loud noises from time to time, and occasionally a few screams can be heard. Every once in a while, there would be shouts of killing, and the frightened beasts in the mountains and forests scattered and fled.
Wu Shuang used the clairvoyant mirror to observe the battle situation in front of him, and his brows furrowed. After a while, he said helplessly: "Let people take it down!" ”
This was the fourth day he had been stuck in the forest, which provided a natural barrier for the natives within. Although Changxing was attacked with firearms, it was greatly discounted here.
King Ke's natives seemed to be crazy, hiding in the mountains and forests one by one to launch a sneak attack. caused some casualties to the Changxing army under Wu's hands, but the natives had to pay several times or even more than ten times the price.
The natives used this kind of crazy sneak attack to drag Wu Shuang here for four days, the Changxing army is not an aboriginal that can be consumed at any time, and Wu Shuangke is reluctant to use his precious troops to compete with the natives here.
Therefore, the daily battles in the mountains and forests were small attacks to minimize the casualties of the Changxing army. Especially today, some of the indigenous women are found in the mountains and forests.
Wu Shuang believed that King Ke did not have many troops in his hands, and as long as he fought for a few more days, King Ke's men would be exhausted.
At that time, it was the time for the Changxing army to exert its might, not to mention that his knife had already been sent, and he was waiting to bring back King Ke, the indigenous leader.
In fact, someone proposed to Wu Shuang to attack too much, but this unreliable proposal was immediately vetoed by Wu Shuang. Peaty! Let's not mention whether the damp jungle can be lit up. It's surrounded by woods, and if you're not careful, you'll get on fire.
Wu Shuang shuddered at the thought of the scene of the Changxing army led by him being chased by the mountain fire and fleeing, and it was too late to cry at that time.
Just when Wu Shuang was wondering whether to increase the intensity of the attack tomorrow and break through this mountain forest in one fell swoop, someone outside came to report. Wu Shuang took the secret letter and opened it to take a look, and his brows suddenly wrinkled in one place.
The letter was sent from Tamsui City, and Zheng Zhilong's Chicken Coop Harbor was besieged by the Potbelly Kingdom. More than 10,000 natives appeared near Chicken Coop Harbor and although they were repulsed several times, they still besieged Chicken Coop Harbor.
Joncoop Harbor is mostly navy with a limited number of land forces. There was no problem in defending the port of the chicken coop, even the warships anchored in the harbor could support the defending city with artillery fire.
Zheng Zhilong immediately sent a message to Tamsui City by speedboat, asking Tamsui City to send troops along the river and cut off the retreat of the natives of the Potbelly Kingdom.
If it can successfully cut off the retreat of the Potbelly Kingdom, the Changxing army can take advantage of the situation to occupy the central part of Taiyuan Island in the south. It has greatly accelerated the process of occupying the entire territory of Taiyuan Island, and it is also possible to emigrate to Taiyuan Island again.
In short, there are many benefits, and I ask Tamsui City to send troops to Chicken Coop Port immediately. Xing Shenyan was very moved after reading Zheng Zhilong's plan, and immediately sent a letter of resignation to Wu Shuang's hands.
But Wu Shuang was a little embarrassed, so much so that he was not against this plan, but thinking: If the army goes to cut off the back road of the Potbelly Kingdom, what should the beheading team sent do?
The prerequisite for the success of the decapitation team is that Wu Shuang leads the army to attract King Ke's forces and create conditions for the soldiers of the team to sneak attack King Ke's station.
Now that the decapitation team has been on set off for several days, if Wu Shuang withdraws, the decapitation team will be in danger. Wu Shuang immediately fell into deep thought......
In the end, Wu Shuang still withdrew his troops and marched towards Jilong Port, as a general who led the troops, he understood the reason that Ci was not in charge of the troops. But he couldn't just let the decapitation squad go.
Again he sent two squads to chase after them and the decapitation squad, and immediately led the group out in response.
Time waits for no one, in case the belly king Amira can't beat the chicken coop port and retreat, then it will be the real chicken and egg beating.
The next day, the Changxing army launched the most fierce attack, and when they left, they also released dozens of Divine Fire Flying Crows into the jungle. Ignited a large area of the damp woods in the jungle before calmly evacuating.
The smoke blocked the exploration of the natives, and King Ke's men did not realize that the Changxing army had withdrawn until the next day. The survivors of the catastrophe celebrated their victory with their lives and began to return to their villages.
Although King Ke's men thought they had won, they were powerless to launch a counterattack. Eleven of the twenty tribal confederations were destroyed, and the population was reduced by two-thirds.
The most important thing is that the war losses are all young and strong, and the tribe, which is mostly old and weak, women and children, does not know if they can survive in the cruel jungle.
……
Amira of Chicken Coop Harbor is not as relaxed as lying on a bamboo bed, and even his favorite Han pastry is hard to swallow.
The confident Amira took nearly half of the warriors of the Potbelly Kingdom to the Chicken Coop Harbor with great vigour, and in his opinion, more than 10,000 warriors would set foot on the Chicken Coop Harbor as soon as they walked through.
But the Changxing army of Chicken Coop Harbor gave Amira a head-on blow, and his warriors did not get half a cent in front of the strong walled wall.
Looking at the warriors who were knocked down one by one in the charge, the fat on Amira's face trembled. This is already the third attack of the day, and Amira is a little deflated when he looks at the warrior Amira, who has dropped a hundred and ten corpses and retreated.
He felt that he was a little impulsive, and he shouldn't have listened to the nonsense of the red-haired man and came to attack some chicken coop port. When I think of the red-haired man Amira, I don't fight anymore.
He immediately had someone find Wright and asked loudly, "Wright! What about the internal response that is good? Okay, as long as my army arrives, I can open the gate of the wall? Now that my warriors have suffered heavy losses, aren't you going to say something? ”
Wright despised the big fat man in front of him, this person was typical of the master who wanted to take advantage and didn't plan to suffer. Why didn't you ask yourself when you first saw the glass barware, what did you do when you saw a box of jewelry?
But he knew that it was not the time to turn his face with Amira, so he immediately said, "Your Majesty! People from inside and outside the city have been vigilant, and my men have no chance to attack. As long as Your Majesty persists for another five days, when outsiders relax their vigilance, they will definitely open the city gate and let Your Majesty enter the city! ”
Amira's small eyes rolled and said, "Wright! Don't lie to me, you're sure you'll have a chance in five days? ”
Wright complained for a while in his heart, he didn't expect Sun Dacheng's exposure to involve his subordinates in his plan. Now there are only a few dozen people left in the city, and these people want to open the gates to the point of hitting stones with eggs.
But when asked by Amira, he couldn't help but grit his teeth, and said at the moment: "No problem!" Within five days, the city gates must be opened and His Majesty will be allowed to enter the city! ”
"I heard that there is a large amount of goods in the warehouse at the dock of Jilong Harbor, and after entering the city, it will be there as compensation for my warriors!" As Wright was about to leave, Amira said casually.
Wright, who stepped out of the tent with one foot, paused, and said heavily, "Hmph! "I left straight away!
