Chapter 130: Soldiers Descend on the City
"That group of pirates is not something that is often seen in Taizhou. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" Jiang Yingjie's heart moved, and he thought of something.
"Well, judging from the impression of the lower officials, it seems that I haven't seen many of these people before." Song Yimiao frowned.
"Lord Song, you say, could these robbers be the same gang? Keep up with the last attack on Taizhou. Jiang Yingjie said.
"This, what does His Highness mean......" Song Yimiao's face changed, and he seemed to guess what Jiang Yingjie meant, "If that's the case, then maybe the situation in Taizhou is critical now." Song Yimiao clenched his fists, at this moment, more than seventy percent of the troops in Taizhou Mansion and the surrounding areas have been dispatched to the Ninghai area, which means that the strength of Taizhou City is now empty, if those previous Japanese robbers come to raid again, then ...... Taizhou City, it is very likely to be broken!
Five or six thousand Japanese robbers, and with a large army with siege equipment, even if Taizhou City is now protected by a high city wall, but with this amount of troops, it is really difficult to match it, even if it is to hold on, it is estimated that it will not last long.
"Lord Song, are you always concerned about the situation in the sea area?" Jiang Yingjie asked solemnly.
"Back to Your Highness, Xia Guan has never relaxed his exploration of the sea area."
"Very good, you immediately order, let people pay more attention to the situation in the sea area, and if there is any trouble, report to me in time!"
"Also, immediately inform the soldiers who went to Ninghai for reinforcements to immediately send eighty percent back to garrison Taizhou, send scouts, inform the neighboring capitals, and let them send troops to reinforce Taizhou."
Jiang Yingjie ordered in a deep voice, such speculation has not yet been confirmed, but he has to guard against it, this is also something he has learned from Shen An these days, called, take precautions.
However, what happened next was unexpected by the two of them, and a spy came to report that dozens of Japanese warships appeared in the sea area north of Taizhou.
The spies made a rough estimate that there were 20,000 Japanese on board.
Jiang Yingjie and Song Yimiao couldn't help but be shocked, Jiang Yingjie hurriedly ordered people to intercept the warships of the Japanese in the harbor, and make sure not to let the Japanese land in Taizhou.
The 20,000-strong army of the Japanese was still equipped with artillery, and the huge port was defeated after less than ten minutes of superior numbers and artillery bombardment.
More than 20,000 Japanese people forcibly landed and pointed their swords at Taizhou.
Shen An and Yu Wei led the soldiers to rush with all their might, and finally when they were in a hurry for most of the distance, they met the scouts excluded by Jiang Yingjie, and at the same time knew the news, after learning the news, Yu Wei had a serious face and ordered the whole army to move forward at a high speed.
The people in Taizhou City didn't know where to get the news of the large-scale invasion of Taizhou, which caused a large area of panic, and Jiang Yingjie and Song Yimiao hurriedly came forward to calm down the people's feelings.
The 20,000-strong army of the Japanese invaders drove directly to Taizhou, and Jiang Yingjie's qualifications could not fight the Japanese outside, so he ordered all the soldiers to gather in Taizhou City, with the barrier of the city wall, which was relatively better.
They only need to hold on for a while, and the scouts have already been sent out to move the rescuers, but he is worried that the city of Taizhou will be broken before the rescuers come.
Taizhou's troops were weak, and he learned that the Japanese had a lot of siege equipment and artillery this time.
Jiang Yingjie stood on the city wall, looking into the distance, only to see a black oppressive figure in the distance, in addition to Jiang Yingjie on the city wall, Song Yimiao was also standing beside him.
Rows of soldiers stood on top of the city walls, and many of the people in the city were shut out.
The 20,000 people looked dense and terrifying, and the swords with bright handles looked a little cold under the reflection of the sun.
There were also people in the Japanese army who pushed a cannon, and there were ladders for siege in the back.
All kinds of excited strange cries came out from the army of Japanese robbers, and Jiang Yingjie looked at all this gloomily, and his heart was bottomless.
This battle was too disparity, Taizhou's troops were empty, and Jiang Yingjie probably guessed the reason why Taizhou was raided by the Japanese invaders before.
This must be the same wolf! The previous raid on Taizhou was just a test of Taizhou's garrison, but this time it was the real attack, and looking at the appearance of the Japanese invaders this time, it was obvious that they wanted to fight quickly and break the city quickly.
The leader of the Japanese is a Dongying man named Ozawa Masao, he is the heir of a powerful Warring States on the Dongying side, out of interest, he came to the waters of Jiang to be a pirate, and the local pirate leader Wang Zhi on Jiang Guo's side is also a little clear, this time because of Wang Zhi's proposal to attack Taizhou.
According to Wang Zhi, the city on this side of Taizhou is very rich, and if he can break through Taizhou City, he will get countless riches. In order to show sincerity, Wang Zhi even sent his subordinates to test the garrison strength of Taizhou City.
After trying, he also gave Ozawa Masao such a trick to attack the west, Ozawa Masao was very grateful to Wang Zhi, not that's all, Wang Zhi also lent troops to Ozawa Masao to let him rest assured to attack Taizhou, but he had to fight quickly, and ran away after robbing the gold and silver treasures.
To this end, Masao Ozawa also prepared a number of wooden carts specially used to transport looted goods after the destruction of the city.
Of course, Ozawa Masao didn't think that Wang Zhi was so selfless to help him, and after asking, Wang Zhi explained the reason, Wang Zhi wanted the head of His Royal Highness the Prince of Jiang Guo in Taizhou City.
Masao Ozawa readily agreed, after all, when the time came to kill in the city, it would take some time to find someone.
As far as he knew, Wang Zhi's strategy of attacking the east and west attracted most of the troops in Taizhou, and the soldiers of Jiang Guo were originally afraid of death, if they saw such a big battle, they would not be scared.
Signaling the Japanese army to stop for the time being, Masao Ozawa laughed.
"Taizhou City is right in front of you, there are gold, silver and jewelry, women, everything you want, now we are under the gate of Taizhou City, let me ask you, do you like jewelry women?" Masao Ozawa used his internal strength to shout, and the 20,000-strong army naturally could not be heard by everyone.
When some of the people in front heard it, of course, they screamed together.
"Like! Like! Kill it! Kill it"
Some other Japanese who didn't hear Masao Ozawa's shouting also took the opportunity to coax, anyway, they didn't care about what Masao Ozawa said, but when they heard someone shouting to kill them, of course, they were also going to roar and shout, and 20,000 people shouted like chicken blood.
"Like! Like! Kill it! Kill it! ”
Jiang Yingjie looked at the crazy widows on the city wall, listening to the shouts one after another, and frowned. (To be continued.) )
