Chapter 231: A Tale of Two Cities (3)

"Bang!"

After a loud bang, the gate in the small courtyard, which was not heavy, was closed, and Doudou and the others began to run around the courtyard, grabbing everything and piling it up behind the gate.

Chu Fan looked around, there were a lot of wooden benches for building houses in the corner, he was a little settled, and ran over to connect the benches along the wall to end in a line, people stood on the bench, the wall was just chest-high, and it was no problem to put Lu Mi Gong out.

When setting up the stool, Chu Fan saw that the ambassador collapsed to the ground in fright, his pants were wet, he couldn't help frowning, and roared angrily, "If you don't want to die, hurry up and light a few braziers, the more the better!" Then the ambassador got up tremblingly, went into the house and lit the fire.

The ten members of the personal guard, all veterans, have experienced the battle against bandits, and after blocking the gate at this moment, they have taken off the Lu Mi gun on their backs, and checked, ignited, and loaded in an orderly manner.

"Doudou, threesome, one wall, on the wall!" Chu Fan lifted the corners of his robe, stuffed it into his belt, took out the small crossbow in the pouch and put it on his arm, put the string on the arrow, and then pulled out the sword and jumped onto the wooden bench.

The probe looked out of the wall, and the rebels closest to the courtyard had run within a hundred paces; Looking further to the southeast, I saw a tidal wave of rebels rushing towards the dock, and the forward was only about two hundred paces away from the A-shaped post.

Chu Fan took a deep breath, he didn't know if his choice was right, but he knew a sentence: on the battlefield, even a wrong choice is much better than hesitation!

When he saw thousands of rebels scurrying over the hills toward makeshift warehouses and docks, he had two options.

First, that is, most people will subconsciously make the choice, quickly run back to the dock and join the Sentry Guard, and line up to stop the rebels.

The second is the choice he has made now: stick to the small courtyard. Wait for the rescue of the A-poster.

The reason why he didn't choose the first plan was because Chu Fan found that himself, the A-shaped sentry, and the rebels almost formed a triangle, and if he ran towards the A-shaped post, most of them would arrive at the same time as the rebels who had already run a certain distance!

This will have a terrible consequence: if you are in front of the formation, the pillar will never give the order to shoot - the platoon gun will not be accurate!

If you are approached by the rebels. The advantage of the Fuliao military weapons is gone, although the training has practiced stabbing, but first, Lu Mi gun is not equipped with bayonets, and second, he has never fought hand-to-hand in actual combat, and among the thousands of chaotic soldiers, the Sentry A is not enough to see, and when the time comes, not only the Sentry will be finished, but even the four ships will not be able to keep it!

Sticking to the small courtyard looks extremely dangerous, but it is the only possibility for Chu Fan and even the first whistle to retreat!

Without his own shackles in front of the formation, the A-shaped whistle can fully exert its firepower advantage. Chu Fan believed that if the pillar was properly commanded, three rounds of fire would collapse the rebels - even the elite troops of this era could not tolerate five percent casualties, let alone the rebels?

With the training level of the A-sign whistle, three rounds of shooting are only a matter of minutes, and if you attack and advance from the dock to the small courtyard, it will only take about ten minutes at most, that is. As long as you can hold out in the small courtyard for twenty minutes, the A-word whistle can kill under the wall!

"Bang~~!"

There was a loud bang in my ears. Attracting Chu Fan's attention from the direction of the dock, he turned his head to see that it was a guard next to him who opened fire - worthy of a veteran, this guard put the chaotic soldiers within ten steps before pulling the trigger, and it was so close that Lu Mi couldn't hit it anymore.

Really. Outside the wall, a bewitching blood flower exploded high on the soldier's chest, and his body flew backwards with a passive lead, screaming and falling heavily into the dust.

The rebels around him were stunned, and after looking at the muzzles of the black holes on the wall, they unconsciously changed their direction. It looks like he's going to bypass the courtyard and loot the temporary warehouse.

Chu Fan's tense nerves relaxed a little - sure enough, as he expected, the target of the rebels was the warehouse, not this difficult courtyard.

But what he didn't know was that among the large group of rebels, there was a person who wanted to tear him alive!

"Master Ming, you can open the gates!"

In the north of Niu Island, in the innermost dock, sitting firmly on the bow of the Haicang boat on the slipway, Lin Sanwa leaned out and shouted to the Ming Ye at the gate; The latter waved his hand, and the boatmen, who had been ready, began to push the winch vigorously, and with a creak, the wooden gate made of thick logs slowly opened, and the raging water immediately poured into the deep dock.

This Haicang ship is the second ship to be renovated - the first, of course, Chen Laosan's eagle boat, which is now floating in the harbor at the foot of the North Battery after adding winged sails, streamlined bows and hydrofoils.

Lin Sanwa's sails and streamlined bow of the Haicang ship have been installed, and they are waiting to install hydrofoils, but they didn't expect the octopus pirates to come and attack.

The other party's boat was also okay, but the turtle boat would definitely not be able to kill it just by the north fort, so Lin Sanwa took the initiative to ask her unmodified Haicang boat to be launched first, and form a small fleet with Chen Laosan's eagle boat - two guns on each side of the eagle boat, three guns on each side of the Haicang boat, plus three guns on the north battery, even if it can't sink the turtle boat, at least it can drive it away.

The sea soon filled the dock, the Haicang ship was completely floating, the sailors who had been prepared for a long time hula raised the mainsail, and under the blowing of the sea breeze, the Haicang ship slowly moved along the dug channel.

Seeing the sea boat sail into the harbor, Ling Ming was reassured, as long as he didn't let the turtle ship of the octopus pirates break into the harbor, even if he Gao Shuncheng still relied on Ling Ming not to leave Ling Ming was not afraid - as early as noon when the octopus pirates had just arrived, Ling Ming had already written a letter to Li Guozhu on the island for help, now the southeast wind is prevalent, Li Guozhu rushed from the island to the island for one day, a little slower will be three days, and then the octopus pirates will not leave, then it will really send a ship to the six families.

Turning his head to look at the sun that had already hung on the top of Halla Mountain, Ling Ming left the dock and walked northwestβ€”the northern coast of Ushido Island was mostly rocky cliffs, and the place where he could land was a small narrow stretch of beach in the northwest except for the harbor under the North Fort.

Ling Ming was worried that the octopus pirate would secretly show up and attract firepower here in the north fort, but he quietly sent someone to touch it from the northwest corner, so he sent the stuffy guy with the escort detachment - it should be called the Huangzi sentry - to the beach over there to keep an eye on it, if the octopus pirate dared to go ashore from there, he would not be killed by a platoon of guns!

It was less than two miles from the dock to the beach in the northwest corner, and Ling Ming walked there in the time of a stick of incense, and when he got there, he saw that on the grass by the beach, the whistle was sitting neatly with Lu Mi Gong in his arms.

Ling Ming stepped forward, and was just about to say something to the stuffy man, when he heard a low horn sound from the south, he turned his head and saw that a black wolf smoke rose from the faintly visible top of Nanshan Mountain! (To be continued.) )
