Chapter Seventy-Four: Zheng Chenggong

With a loud "boom", the sharp axe of the gate of the line split and fell to the ground, but at this moment, a series of "whoosh" sounds sounded in the line, and a row of arrows rained out, shooting all the men of the gate of the chopping knife to the ground

It turned out that fifteen paces from the gate stood in a phalanx, and the two fronts of the two groups, numbering about five hundred, quickly withdrew to both sides with longbows after shooting arrows

They seemed to be well trained, for as soon as the archers were withdrawn, the shield-bearers who followed them rose up, and beside each shield a bright spear head was exposed

Shield Array!

The formation moved forward quickly, directly blocking the location of the original gate, pirates are pirates after all, a group of rabble, there were a few fierce ones before, swarming forward, but all of them were pierced by spears The pirates behind were startled by this formation, and they did not dare to continue to risk death to move forward

This delay created another opportunity for the musketeers standing on either side of the battalion, who stood up and fired again in a series of shots

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" …… Two rows of gunfire, and the pirates were killed by hundreds of people

The pirates were now gathered at the gates of the camp, so dense that the musketeers didn't even have to aim, they just fired at the crowd and they could get something

Encountering such an obstruction, the more the pirate leader Zheng Zhilong thought about it, the more wrong it became, where is this sneak attack, it is clearly sent to find the dead It seems that the other party must be prepared, when he went ashore, there was a good chance that his whereabouts were leaked

Anyway, since you have come here, you can't just return in vain, so many brothers have died, if you go back like this, you will not be laughed at by Li Kuiqi's group, how will you serve the public in the future

It seems that the number of officers and soldiers is not very large, and there are no reinforcements or the like, so let's fight, anyway, I have a lot of people, and I can eat you all in one bite He immediately gave a desperate order, so that the pirates rushed forward at any cost, Zheng Zhilong was not born in a professional class, and he did not have any formal training, his set, that is, fighting with the same rabble of pirates, can eat well, and really meet well-trained officers and soldiers, how many have to die

To deal with this kind of shield and gun array, it is the stupidest way to fight to the death, but for him, it seems that there is no other way, and there is no other way to rush up, and he was pierced in an instant, but this time, the pirates who followed up learned to be obedient, and without waiting for the corpse in front of him to fall, he pounced on it, looking at the posture, it was planned to squeeze in by virtue of the number of people

This method is also possible, but the pirates in the second row are also inevitably dead, and the pikemen retract the spear in his hand and stab it forward, along with the pirates who have died before, plus the ones that follow behind, and string them together into a sugar gourd

Then the pirates in the back wanted to hold the two bodies in front of them and continue to squeeze forward, it was just a dream, the spear was brought back, the corpse was "plopped, plopped" and fell to the ground to see their companions fall one after another, the pirates behind were really afraid, plus the gunshots rang out again above both sides of the camp, they completely lost the courage to pull their legs and slowly backwards, no one was willing to rush forward, who was raised by his father and mother, just such a life, how could he die like this

The sky was gradually darkening with death, Zheng Zhilong saw that his men and horses were demoralized, and slowly retreated, so he had no choice but to give an order to temporarily withdraw the defenders in the camp, there were indeed not many, and they did not chase them out, and they were still waiting for them

Zheng Zhilong didn't take people to retreat too far, because he still wanted to fight back, retreat ten miles, straighten out the men and horses, rest in place, eat some dry food, the pirates ran for a day, plus just walked around the death line, and now they are exhausted, many people eat dry food indiscriminately, and sleep next to the bonfire

****************************************************

Facts have proved that Zheng Zhilong was not wrong, although the place where they landed was secret, but with so many warships walking on the sea, it was inevitable that they would not be seen, and Lord Yue had already arranged scouts to patrol along the shore

After discovering that many ships were docking, the scout immediately went to report that the place where he did not go was the governor's line, but the camp of the sailors

In the camp of the sailor, Yue Su took Jiang Jie, Yin Zhu, Tie Qiu, Kong Youde, and Mao Youjian to discuss the matter

"Mr. Jiang, how can you be sure that Zheng Zhilong will definitely send people to attack after learning that we have established a shipyard and built warships?" Yue Su asked, it turned out that after Fang En left the governor's line, someone had been secretly following him, and his every move did not escape Yue Su's grasp

"The reason is very simple, let's build a warship, it must be him Zheng Zhilong, of course Zheng Zhilong will understand this truth, I believe that Zheng Zhilong will definitely take action after learning the news, he is also a sea hero, sit back and wait for him to die, whether it is to destroy the sailor or destroy the shipyard, it is just a temporary pleasure, and it will definitely not solve the problem, if you want to really do it once and for all, the only way to get rid of the adults is to go, so I conclude that if he Zheng Zhilong is still the number one person, he will definitely land secretly, Come to the adults to fight the eighteen Zhi has more than 20,000 pirates, if they can join forces, we want to win for a while, it will not be easy, but the subordinates believe that the bandits and the like, the word first, will never be twisted into a rope at this time"

As he spoke, the outpost came to report that thirty ships were docking to get the news, Jiang Jie immediately laughed and said, "My lord, our chance to eliminate Zheng Zhilong in one fell swoop has come."

Of course, Yue Su understood what Jiang Jie was referring to, he stood up and said, "Then what are you waiting for, order troops to go to sea!" ”

Yue Su transferred fifty warships and 3,000 soldiers and horses from the naval division, went directly to the sea, and killed Maweiyu Since you Zheng Zhilong dared to lead the division to land, then don't blame Lao Tzu for robbing your nest

The cloth has already been done, as long as Zheng Zhilong comes, the sailor will go to Maweiyu Xingyuan, the female dependents are protected by Guan Yu, and Li Wenzhang and his son entered the city of Quanzhou Yuesu After getting the news, another order arrow was sent to the governor Xingyuan, so that Jin Cicada took the big order and went to Quanzhou to guard the generals, and transferred 3,000 troops as a backup, and received the soldiers and horses in the Xingyuan, led by Tong Zhou and Li Haoran, and arranged the defense to resist Zheng Zhilong, and he was also trained casually

With such a thoughtful arrangement, how could Zheng Zhilong escape from Ascension

Just when Zheng Zhilong arrived at the governor Xingyuan, Yue Su led the sailors to Maweiyu, don't look at Brother Zheng's setback in Xingyuan, but Yue Su was smooth sailing

Zheng Zhilong took almost all the main forces on the island, and the rest of the people were only a few hundred, in his heart, he would never have thought that Yue Su would turn around and attack Yue Su's four English warships on Maweiyu were so powerful

Yue Su knew that Zheng Zhilong had a wife and children, so he personally went to the island to protect his wife, and the pirates on the island could flee if they could, and surrendered if they couldn't

Tie Qi rushed to the front, for the matter of killing, he has always been the most interested, leading the soldiers from the front yard to the backyard, in front of a house in the backyard, encountered a more ferocious resistance, but the resistance was only in vain, a dozen pirates who desperately resisted were solved by him in a moment, and then rushed into the house

In the room, there was a young woman, the woman was still holding a three or four-year-old child in her arms, the woman saw Tie Qi rushing in with a bloody steel knife, first shivered, and then picked up the scissors on the table, of course she would not go to fight with Tie Qiu, but planned to end up with her own and the child's life rather than die than be humiliated

"Child, my mother will accompany you later, Zhilong, I'm sorry for you!" The woman moved the scissors to the child's belly and made a gesture to do so

At this moment, there was a sudden *** shouting at the door, "Slow! The voice settled, and a person walked in, this person was wearing a black veil on his head, wearing a crane complement robe, and at a glance, he knew that it was when he came in, the soldiers in front of him were out of the way, needless to say, this person was Yue Su

Yue Su glanced at the woman and the child, and said with a smile: "You are Zheng Zhilong's wife, but the child is his child?" ”

"What are you asking for?" The woman said coldly

Seeing that the woman answered the question, Yue Su was not angry, looked at the child in the woman's arms with a soft gaze, and said, "Little doll, what is your name?" ”

"My name is Zheng Chenggong......," replied the child in a childish, loud voice, and he did not seem to know that they were in danger compared to his mother, and his face was not afraid

As soon as he heard the words "Zheng Chenggong", Yue Su just said "good name" casually, and then seemed to suddenly remember something, his eyes couldn't help but be stunned, and the rest was just staring at the child tightly

Zheng Chenggong's name, of course Yue Su has heard of it, it is a famous national hero, Yue Su, a character who often appears in TV series, looked at Zheng Chenggong carefully, Zheng Chenggong, who is nearly four years old, looks like a tiger with a tiger head, and with a temperament of not admitting defeat on his face Yue Su nodded and praised: "Okay, it is worthy of a generation of heroes"

His words made the woman a little confused, but she just held the child's hand and tightened "You...... What do you mean? ”

Yue Su laughed and said: "As soon as Bendu saw your child, he loved it very much, and it happened that Bendu had no children under his knees, and he now intends to accept your doll as a righteous son, I don't know what you think?" ”

Accepting Zheng Chenggong as his righteous son is also a loss to Yue Su who can think of it

Yue Su's words made the woman even more confused, although she didn't know how big Yue Su's robe and clothes represented, but she also understood that this grade must not be small The other party intends to accept his child as a righteous son, which means that the son will be fine, but why did the other party do this?

She didn't see the deception in Yue Su's eyes, what she saw was only Yue Su's intuition about the woman's love for children, which had always been very accurate
