Chapter 440: The pirates of the upper kingdom are also magical
The people were so bold and brave that when they saw the arrival of the large number of people, the spirit of the Korean soldiers at the dock was lifted, and their morale recovered from the brink of collapse. [No pop-up novel network]
But Cui Wanhu is not as optimistic as them.
That's right, the number of enemies on the opposite side is not too much, about 200, compared to the more than 1,000 soldiers and horses on the island, it is really outnumbered. But the battle is not only based on the number of people, but also on the quality of the soldiers.
Can he defeat it, no, even if he forces the other party back, Cui Dabing still has no bottom in his heart.
The specific manifestation is that after the reinforcements arrived, he neither gave orders, nor cheered, and did not even dare to pick up the knife under his feet, allowing the troops to rush forward in a chaotic manner under the leadership of the small banner.
"Boom!" The men were greeted with a loud bang.
Jiang Bin had a good understanding of Xie Hong's strategic thinking, this time the soldiers brought out were limited, although they had been carried to the maximum extent, but only twenty people could be put on each ship, and the entire fleet added up to only more than 200 soldiers.
Although the other party is not a strong soldier, but above the battle array, there is a rain of guns and arrows, who can guarantee that there are no casualties? There is one less wound on your own side, so it is best to use the strongest means to deter the other party, and then take the opportunity to completely defeat it.
Therefore, before handing over the troops, Jiang Bin first threw a sky-shattering thunder out, which can be regarded as bullying people thoroughly.
For Jiang Bin's hand, the North Korean soldiers must not be wary.
They used the method of fighting the Japanese bandits, and a large group of men and horses gathered together, rushed up and stabbed and smashed them with weapons, and when there were many people and few people, most of them could be effective.
If there are as many Japanese as there are on his side, of course this method is not easy to use, and it can be seen that there are so many Japanese criminals, who would be stupid to rush up? It's the right thing to do and turn around and run away.
As a result, they were tragic, Jiang Bin's earth-shattering thunder happened to be thrown in the middle of the crowd, the red light flashed, shrapnel flew, and many soldiers fell down before they could figure out what was going on.
Immediately, under the reminder of the heart-rending pain, they realized what had happened, and the screams and moans immediately rang out.
In fact, there were only a dozen people directly affected by the explosion, even if they were hit by shrapnel, there were not too many injured people, but the change was too abrupt, looking at the screams of his companions around him, the people in the middle of the team were frightened, and they felt sad that the rabbit died of a fox.
The people in the back team saw it clearly, and they were all frightened, and they subconsciously stopped; The people in the front team were running in a hurry, and there were those who didn't have time to turn back, and they were still rushing forward, but they were also smart, slowing down, trying to see the situation.
As a result, the situation that Jiang Bin needed appeared, a heaven-shattering thunder was used, and the ranks of the North Koreans were already out of touch.
"Kill!" Scarface snapped and stepped forward. He reached out with his left hand, grabbed one of the spears that had stabbed him, and then slashed out to dispel the others, while the knife in his right hand was already swinging.
"Poof! Burst! Burst! The sound of the sharp blade entering the body continued, and the several North Korean soldiers facing him were already in different places, and there was an empty space in front of him.
This time, the Korean soldiers in the front team were also frightened, even the most ferocious Japanese robbers, they were not so brave, where did this pirate come from? Fierce enough, right?
"Kill!" How can there be room for a daze on the battle array, and the number has been changed again, and the border troops who have become marines are all veterans of the battlefield, and they have a very strong grasp of fighters, where will they let go of such a good opportunity?
They swung their knives and went straight forward, the swords were sharp and brave, and the blockers were invincible, and it didn't take more than a while, except for a few who saw the opportunity quickly and slipped away, including the small flag, nearly 100 people in the front team had already been killed.
The front team has been completely wiped out, and the people in the middle of the team have not yet reacted, while the people in the back team have begun to collapse. It's not that they don't have enough courage, it's just that the enemy they face is beyond imagination, and it's not at all something they can handle.
The premonition was confirmed, but Cui Dabing didn't have any joy in his heart, he didn't have the heart to put away the soldiers who had become a mess, he just silently thought in his heart: Such a strong soldier and horse actually bullied people with firearms...... This is too cruel, too unsurnamed, right?
"Well, it's going well, Brother Ma, let's call them to surrender." Seeing that the overall situation has been decided, Xie Hong does not plan to kill more, and the North Koreans on the island, he is still useful.
"Those who descend will not die, and those who fall on the ground will not be killed!"
Seeing that the front team of the Korean army has been wiped out, and the rear team has begun to disperse, Xie Hong gave the timely order to surrender, and Ma Ang and the sailors shouted loudly in Korean dialect.
Since ancient times, the inhabitants of the peninsula have been known for their knowledge of current affairs, and when they see that defeat is decided, those fierce pirates are in conflict with each other, and they are still in a no-man's land, where can they still muster the courage to confront?
What's more, these people are not untrustworthy and righteous pirates, but from the Ming Dynasty, the upper kingdom is the upper kingdom, even if they are pirates, they should be reasonable, right? As for why the adults of the kingdom started to fight when they met, I am afraid that it was also on their side that showed their blades first and showed their hostility, which led to punishment, well, it must be like this.
As for why the North Koreans know that Xie Hong and others are from Daming, the reason is very simple.
Why are pirate ships so fast? Why are their people so brave? Why are firearms so sharp?
All kinds of incredibleness can be attributed to one reason, that is, these people are from the Ming Dynasty, in addition to the Ming Dynasty, how can there be so many magical things in the world?
With this in mind, the DPRK calmly put down the weapon in his hand, pouted his buttocks, and lay on the ground according to the instructions of the lords.
In fact, there were not many people with weapons, and after the strikers were wiped out, most of them were paying attention to running away. Although Jeju Island is not too big, there is nothing wrong with hiding a handful of people, and if you get into the bandits, will the lords of the kingdom still kill them all?
"These guys are easier to deal with than the Five Cities Terracotta Division? It's so easy to surrender them all, isn't that honest? Maang was amazed.
You know, he and the sailors had just shouted the slogan of surrender, but it turned out that it was like a hurricane blowing on the dock, and all the North Koreans fell in response, except for the high pouting buttocks, not a single face could be seen.
"Brother Ma, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division is also a violent organization, if you compare it with the North Koreans, isn't that too much bullying for the North Koreans? Wait a minute, gather these people together and watch them, and then bring the leader to see me, Lu Renyi, set up the boat, and you can also get off the boat and rest. ”
Xie Hong is very clear about the fact that the North Koreans are very weak, otherwise he would not have made repairs and directly ordered a strong attack to seize Jeju Island, but he actually didn't expect that the other party was so weak.
However, thinking about the attitude of Nanbang towards the United States in later generations, Xie Hong was also relieved. In the minds of the Koreans in this era, the status of the Ming Dynasty is only higher than that of the United States in later generations, and the deterrence on his side is also relatively in place, so it is not surprising to achieve such a result.
The enemy knew the current affairs, and it was easy to clean up the battlefield and deal with the aftermath, so Maang went around the group of prisoners and brought out a short Korean. And Xie Hong was also surprised to hear that this person was still a 10,000 household, and he was only one Hou character short of himself.
"You're the commander of the garrison on Jeju Island? In addition to these docks, how many soldiers and horses are there on the island, and who are some of them? ”
When he first became a captive, Cui Wanhu did have some bad feelings in his heart, but he just took a nap, and then woke up and went around the dock, how did the situation become so big?
But when he was dragged into his original official office by Ma Ang, and when he faced Xie Hong, his mentality immediately changed, not only did he not feel embarrassed at all, but instead changed to a flattering smile, knelt on the ground and said:
"The main force on the island is here, and there are only some scattered soldiers in the outposts everywhere, in front of the lords, they are not even ants, don't worry, as long as the villain sends a herald over, they will come obediently to surrender, foolproof, foolproof."
"Uh," this person softened too thoroughly, making Xie Hong a little uncomfortable, "Is there a ship on the island?" How often do North Korean sailors come here to patrol here? What is the size of the trolls? ”
"If you go back to your lordship, there are no ships on the island, and the transportation of supplies is transported by Jeolla Province, and the same is true for escorting prisoners, and the navy patrols ......" The previous words were smooth, but when it came to the navy, Choi Wanhu suddenly hesitated.
"Huh?" Xie Hong frowned slightly and snorted heavily.
Without Ma Ang's translation, Cui Dabing could also feel the dissatisfaction of Lord Mingguo, and he was so frightened for a while that he hurriedly explained:
"My lord, it's not that the villain deliberately conceals it, but the navy of Jeolla Province and Gyeongsang Province is very small, although there are more ships than your fleet, most of them are old ships, and they can't go out to sea, just for transportation, where will there be any patrols?"
Listening to Ma Ang's relay, Xie Hong was a little dazed, due to the Battle of Renchen in the Wanli period, the Korean naval army was very famous in later generations, and even Xie Hong, a historical novice, had heard of it, and also regarded the other party as one of his opponents.
That war is nearly a hundred years away from now, and the strength of North Korea may not have been born yet, but Xie Hong will not be careless until the existence of this opponent is completely determined.
Jeju Island was very important in his plan, it was a base before the occupation of the five islands, and it was also to be used as a transit point between Lushun and the East China Sea in the future.
If that naval army really exists, and it suddenly appears when he goes out to conquer the Wa Kingdom, then he will become the second brother Guan who carelessly loses Jingzhou.
Xie Hong believes that when the strength is weak, you can take risks, but now that the foundation is gradually formed, you should focus on stability, and step by step is the king.
But the strange thing is that no matter how I inquired along the way, I didn't hear any news of this water army. If the status of those fishermen is too low, and their knowledge is shallow, but the person in front of him is also a 10,000 household, so it is impossible not to know any news, right?
If you want to say that he is lying, it is not like this, this Wanhu has already told all the news about Jeju Island, and he has to send people to help him recruit soldiers and appease the residents, and from his look of respect and fear, Xie Hong can't find a trace of falsification anyway.
Could it be that the water army has really not been built yet? Xie Hong pinched his chin and groaned, there are many things that can happen in a few decades, and it doesn't seem unusual to build a naval army from scratch.
"Lord Qiyu...... The villain is humble and short-sighted, and I really don't know what you ask, but there may be someone on this island who will know the news you want. ”
After pouring beans into the bamboo tube in his chest, the Lord Shangguo was still silent, and the look on his face was also uncertain, Cui Wanhu was really worried in his heart. However, after being anxious for a while, he thought of a solution.
"Oh?" After listening to Ma Ang's relay, Xie Hong raised his eyebrows and asked with great interest: "Aren't the people on the island all prisoners?" Could it be that there are big shots among them? ”
"My lord, although North Korea also pursues the Central Plains Taoism and adheres to the way of not punishing doctors, but occasionally there are some surprises, there was a turmoil in North Korea last year, so there are also two classes of nobles on Jeju Island now."
Speaking of this, Cui Dabing paused slightly, giving Ma Ang time to translate, and then continued to explain: "These people have been in the center for a long time, and they know the domestic situation very well, and they may be able to answer the questions of adults. ”
"I see," Xie Hong nodded, and commanded in a loud voice: "Come on, take Cui Wanhu to recognize someone, Brother Ma, you should also follow along, lest this person cheat." ”
