The fighting lasted only a quarter of an hour, and the Japanese suffered heavy casualties, and only twenty or thirty people escaped by jumping into the water. At this time, the ferry boat had also turned around and leaned over, and the ten people should inform Wu Tianxiao that Guanhaizhai was attacked by the Japanese invaders. A total of four or five hundred people came to the three search boats, but fortunately, there was a lighthouse in Guanhaizhai, and the lookout on the lighthouse found the alarm in advance. Wu Dayounai, the head of the hundred households, asked someone to let go of wolf smoke to call the police, and sent him to bring someone to report for help, and at the same time gathered people to hide in Guanhai Village to defend. The captain of the ten people led people back to ask for help in the ferryboat, and the three Japanese ships with more than 1,000 materials had already rushed over, and one of them was in urgent pursuit of help. The other two ships leaned on the Guanhaizhai wharf, and the three or four hundred Japanese robbers killed the Guanhaizhai.

After Wu Tianxiao understood the basic situation, he knew that the sneak attack of the Japanese invaders came suddenly, and Guanhaizhai was dangerous. He left a team of thirty and ten people to guard the ship, and searched for the twenty or thirty people who escaped by jumping into the water, and ordered the Tamsui to sail quickly to Guanhaizhai.

Wu Tianxiao gave the order, but saw that the Tamsui was still not moving. He shouted, "Why hasn't the ship started yet?" ”

At this time, Tan Lun told Wu Tianxiao: "City Lord." The Tamsui ramming horn was inserted in the stern of the Japanese ship, and it could not be torn apart for a while. ”

Wu Tianxiao was in a hurry, and hurriedly led people to the bow of the boat to check, but saw that Yang Hongju was leading people to dismantle the stern of the Japanese boat. Wu Tianxiao saw it and shouted: "Get out of the way and blow up the stern of the Japanese with a grenade." ”

At this time, the cow knife cypress persuaded: "City lord." This ship is a large ship of more than 1,000 materials, and the damage is not great, so it is a pity that it was blown up. ”

Wu Tianxiao shouted: "If the rescuers are on fire, how can they be greedy for this little profit." Fast. Blow up with a grenade. ”

Yang Hongju, Tan Lun and others did not dare to hesitate, but ordered their subordinates to blow up the stern of the captured Japanese ship with a grenade, which allowed the Tamsui to get rid of the entanglement of the two ships and sail quickly towards Guanhai Village.

When the Tamsui was not far from the Guanhaizhai Wharf, it saw two Japanese ships parked on the wharf, both of which were the same size as the one just now, but no one was guarding them. Wu Tianxiao ordered: "Chen Minzhi, you take thirty people to guard the boat, Chen Minxin, you take fifty people to search for the two Japanese ships, and then ambush them at the dock." As soon as he found out that the pirates had escaped, he used his mother to clean them up with grenades. The others are with Lao Tzu. Hurry, hurry, hurry. Go to support Wu Dayou. After speaking, he was the first to jump onto the pier and ran towards Guanhai Village.

The wharf is only two or three miles away from the Guanhai Village. Wu Tianxiao ran out of the country with more than 200 soldiers, and heard bursts of explosions from the distance from the direction of Guanhai Village. When they were a few hundred steps away, they saw a group of Japanese robbers surrounding the gate of Guanhai Village, with two or three hundred people, but they did not dare to approach.

Seeing this, Wu Tianxiao shouted while rushing: "The sword and shield hand is in the front, the spearman is in the back, and the grenade soldier is following." Kill. and destroyed the eight lambs of the kings. ”

With Wu Tianxiao under the command, although the Bingding Gate is a little chaotic, it is also precedent. It was only a blink of an eye to charge a few hundred steps, and when Wu Tianxiao led people to kill nearly one or two hundred meters, the Japanese robber realized that a group of people had been killed behind him, and he hurriedly turned around to resist in a panic.

Right now. Wu Tianxiao yelled as he ran: "Sword and shield hands, spearmen as cover." The grenade soldier lit the grenade and blew up the group of eight lambs. ”

In a matter of moments, the two sides were killed in one place. Wu Tianxiao had a sword and shield hand as a cover here, and the spear poked out from behind the sword and shield hand. The Japanese are basically ronins armed with three-foot swords, where can they be impacted. Before the pirates could get close, dozens of grenades exploded in the crowd of pirates, killing most of them in an instant. What's even worse is that Wu Dayou is also a fierce general. Seeing that the reinforcements had arrived, when the Japanese returned to resist, they led their troops out of the stockade, and threw another twenty or thirty grenades into the crowd. Two rounds of grenades blew up the pirates, and then the Han soldiers surrounded and killed them with front and back attacks. In the melee, Wu Tianxiao couldn't take care of too much, but when he saw the Japanese who took the lead, he shot him with a pistol one after another.

There is no suspense about the outcome of the outcome, although this time it was a raid by the Japanese invaders. However, because Wu Dayou commanded in an orderly manner, he sent out for help in advance, and borrowed the defense of Guanhai Village, and with the support of grenades, he surrounded and annihilated this group of criminals.

In the battle, Wu Tianxiao found that there were three soldiers who were very strong. One person is Wu Dayou, this guy has made great achievements since he followed Wu Tianxiao. Then there is Tan Lun, who has joined not long ago. Tan Lun was very good, a spear made him superb, and the Japanese were not able to get close at all, and he was the only one who killed seven or eight Japanese with a spear. The other person was beyond Wu Tianxiao's expectations. This person is the indigenous young man Tai Said, who has just joined the Han nationality and was incorporated into Wu Tianxiao's side.

Wu Tianxiao knew that this Taiside was the youngest son of Atayal, who was only eighteen years old. But it was the first time I had seen the fierceness of these natives. A group of recruits around Wu Tianxiao were thirty or forty newly joined indigenous youths. Since language is not very easy to communicate, these people are basically led by Teside.

The battle lasted only half an hour before the Wako were wiped out. On this side, together with the initial battle, a total of 21 people were killed, 7 were seriously wounded, and 450 were wounded. Except for the twenty or thirty people who escaped by diving into the water before, the others were basically annihilated. Later, Wu Tianxiao asked the wounded to be transported back to Tamsui City for treatment, and the soldiers who died in the battle were also transported back, preparing to build a cemetery of battle heroes in Yongchunliao to bury these soldiers who died in battle. Then he summoned all the new minzhuang, cut off all the heads of the Japanese robbers, let those new people cut off their heads to practice their courage, and let them take the heads of the four or five hundred Japanese robbers and build a small Jingguan at the mouth of the Tamsui River.

In this battle, apart from the capture of three 1,300-material Japanese ships and the grain on board, there was not much money to be gained. Wu Tianxiao took out all the captured property, took out the 5,000 taels of silver in reserve, and gave a pension of 100 taels to the family of each soldier who died in battle. The seriously wounded will be given a subsidy of 10 taels per person, and the participants will be given a subsidy of 5 taels per person. Then there is the one who kills the enemy and the one who kills one of the Japanese will be rewarded with ten taels of silver.

Subsequently, the reward and punishment scheme for defending the city was announced. In the future, the pension for those who die in battle shall be one hundred taels. Those who participate in the battle will be given a subsidy of five taels, those who are seriously injured will be subsidized ten taels, and those who slash and kill an enemy will be rewarded with ten taels. And in the battle, those who flee without permission are killed, those who are afraid of the enemy are killed, and those who collaborate with the enemy are killed. And set the rule that if the future participants in the war, if they are seriously injured and disabled, and can no longer continue to fight, they will be retired and arranged to work. Use these retired soldiers who have participated in the battle to serve as guards, or yacha or guard guards or something, in order to solve the worries of retired soldiers.

After dealing with the post-war matters, Wu Tianxiao asked the ships to sail back to the shipyard and asked Shen Cheng to repair the Tamsui first. Later, the three Japanese ships were remodeled. Although one of them was badly damaged, the skeleton was not damaged, so it can still be used for repair. As a result, there are several ships available in Freshwater City. There are 2,000 materials of Tamsui (with a load of about 300 tons), 1,400 materials of exploration, 1,500 materials of Dingyuan, 1,400 materials of Zhenyuan, and 1,000 materials of training. and three 1,300 newly seized sea vessels, named Guanhaizhai, Hanxi Zhai and Wujiazhai respectively, as well as three 300 ferries. There are also three other 500-gauge ferries already under construction.

After sweeping away the invading Japanese invaders, Wu Tianxiao asked the bodies of the soldiers killed in the war to be transported to Yongchunliao, that is, the place where the indigenous people were buried, and chose a hill for burial. After the funeral, the sergeants were gathered to give lectures.
