Chapter Thirty-Nine: Desperate Survival
After all the pirates on the mountain were killed, the drunken centipede threw his weapon aside and said, "My lord, the little ones are the bandits here." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info I have done some foolish things in order to make a living on weekdays, and today the Japanese are planning to kill you, and the small ones still know the trade-offs in the face of the big right and wrong, so they killed the head of the Japanese Kou while they were unprepared, so that his conspiracy did not succeed. I wonder if I can make up for it and dispel the misunderstanding just now? ”
Chai Baochen understood the meaning of the drunken centipede as soon as he pondered, he did illegal business on weekdays, and today he did not collude with the Japanese Invaders, but instead helped the government kill the leader of the Japanese Invaders, wanting to take credit for this, and did not want the government to suppress him. Chai Baochen raised his chest and said: "Today you killed these widows and relieved the siege of your own officials, and you have a great credit." But you oppress the good in your daily life, and your sins are innumerable. For the sake of your merits today, I can give you a chance. ”
"Oh? What chances? The drunken centipede was said by Chai Baochen, and his heart was strange.
"Disband all your camps, and follow me to fight the Japanese in the future. Only by defending the family and the country and killing the enemy can you make up for it. I can also report to the court to eliminate the case you committed!" Chai Baochen said.
When Chai Baochen said these words, the other mountain bandits couldn't hold it anymore and were about to attack. The drunken centipede waved his hand and said, "Let me think about it." ”
"Good! Then I'll leave you a day, and please think carefully. This is a great opportunity for you to glorify your ancestors! Chai Baochen said.
"Yes. By the way, there is an important thing to tell you, the rest of the Japanese are heading for Ningbo City, and they are going to raid! The drunken centipede reminded.
Yes, I just wanted to ask, Murashita is dead, but how many soldiers under him are not dead? Now it seems that Murakita planned very carefully before his death, and let Guqin go undercover to his side early, and then caught his wife Wei Su, and then sent Guqin to reveal a rescue plan, but in fact, he led himself to a death trap, and at the same time excluded soldiers and horses to attack Ningbo. The combat effectiveness of the Japanese Invaders was very amazing, and if Ningbo did not have its own command, and if there was no coordinated operation of the Shenji Company, the consequences would be unimaginable. If he really died, and there was no one in Ningbo to command the anti-Japanese for a while, and let the Japanese invade for a long time, how many people would have to be displaced and scattered! What will happen to Wei Su? Chai Baochen felt scared when he thought about it.
And the most critical part of all this is to be completed by the guqin, she wants to win her trust, she has to carefully plan not to let herself see the flaws, how careful her mind is, how vicious! Now think about it, she didn't know where she came from before she followed her, this woman is smart and virtuous, she does housework and hard work, and her cooking taste is very unique, and she is careful and thoughtful when she gets along with herself, is she a Japanese national? The more Chai Baochen thought about it, the more reasonable he felt, recalling her bright eyes and shyness, and the intimacy of the Japanese woman to the male host, she was more convinced. Chai Baochen suddenly remembered the back of Guqin when he walked, he always felt weird before, but now he has found the reason for the strange. When the guqin walks, it walks in the inner figure, and when it walks fast, it runs forward in small steps, which is precisely the expression of the humble and elegant demeanor of Japanese women. I had noticed this detail for a long time, but when the mystery was revealed, I remembered that I was almost killed, and I was really a waste! He immediately made up his mind that he would never be tempted to meet other beauties in the future, he already had three, and this life was enough!
Chai Baochen shouted: "All assemble! ”
"Wait a minute, sir." Drunken centipede said.
"What's the matter?" Chai Baochen asked, he was in a hurry.
"We have a few horses here, not very good horses, but we know the way up and down the mountain, and I will send a brother to see you off. I don't know if you can use it? ”
"It's wonderful." Chai Baochen shook the hand of the drunken centipede and expressed his gratitude.
The drunken centipede was embarrassed, and no man had ever held his hand with both hands.
Chai Baochen summoned the soldiers who were easy to move and were lightly wounded, and they rode down the mountain and hurried towards Ningbo City. In order to rescue Wei Su, they had been on the mountain for two hours, and it was already early at this time, and after a while, the sun would come out, and the city gate would open. It would have been a bad thing if the pirates had suddenly broken into the city while the gates were open and unfortified. And Murashita is dead, and it's not clear who is leading this team. Will it be a guqin?
These are just their own predictions, and it is not known what the actual situation will be. He prayed in his heart to Heaven that these murderous demons would not be allowed to enter the city!
With a few horses aided by the drunken centipede, Chai Baochen and their feet were much faster. In less than half an hour, it was almost close to Ningbo City. Soon after, I saw smoke billowing in front of me, life was noisy, and it seemed that the massacre had begun. Could it be that the pirates have already entered the city, and they are setting fire to kill people? Chai Baochen's heart tightened, and the whip slammed on the horse's buttocks, clamping the horse's belly and heading towards the city gate.
When I got closer, I saw that the gates of the city were closed, and the outside of the city was dark and inextricable. On one side is the Japanese Kou, needless to say, and on the other side is the military flag with the word "Chai". Looking closely, only a few more than 200 people in the Ming army came out to fight. What's going on?
More than 400 Japanese soldiers and 200 Ming soldiers were fighting, and for a time it was impossible to see which side had the advantage. The Japanese certainly have an advantage in numbers, but the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and it is not determined by numbers. In ancient times, there were many wars in which fewer won more, and the key was still the situation on the battlefield.
Chai Baochen suddenly saw a familiar figure, it was Master Yunlin! A warm current surged through my heart, I really didn't expect that the master would arrive!
With a pride in his heart, Chai Baochen ordered the soldiers on the horse to take the firearms, prepare, and launch! Bang bang bang, more than a dozen shots were fired, and then more than a dozen Japanese robbers fell. The momentum here attracted the attention of the Japanese Kou. One of the Japanese people shouted loudly and pointed at Chai Baochen and them. Soon, thirty Japanese soldiers attacked them. Chai Baochen was taken aback, and the leader of the Japanese invaders used twice as many troops to fight the Ming army on horseback. Obviously, the firearms on the horse were very lethal.
Chai Baochen beckoned the soldiers to disperse and fight freely, without being confined to the array. When riding his horse to avoid the Japanese invaders, Chai Baochen thought that now that the Ming army had entangled the Japanese soldiers, if there were more firecrackers at the city gate to shoot at the Japanese invaders, even if they were killed slowly, but the shock to the Japanese was very great.
Chai Baochen looked for an opportunity to ride his horse and run to the master's side, shouting loudly: "Master! You're coming. ”
Yun Lin looked sideways, the apprentice was much darker than two months ago, and he was much braver, and he had the demeanor of a general. "Baochen, before the Japanese attacked, I happened to be outside the city. Your sister and I climbed over the wall and entered the city and asked the soldiers not to open the city gates. If you are not here, I can only mobilize the soldiers of the Shenji Company, after all, they are brought out by you and me, and they are the soldiers ordered by the emperor to go south to help you fight against the Japanese. ”
"Master, let's talk about these things later, as long as the Japanese are exterminated, what can others say?" Chai Baochen shouted, grabbing a knife and hacking a widow to death.
"You listen to me after I finish speaking, just because I transferred troops privately, so I can only drop so many soldiers, and we are not numerous. And I don't have the power to mobilize gunpowder. Now the war is in a stalemate, and as long as we use firearms, the situation will soon change. Hurry into the city through the west gate, and send your troops and firecrackers. ”
Master's words were really to the point, and Chai Baochen replied: "Master, you have to be careful, the apprentice has gone." ”
Although it is a reunion after a long absence, the master and apprentice have no time to get along. They knew in their hearts that only by driving the Japanese out of the country could they live a peaceful life!
