Chapter 287: Overplayed

Han Huanzhang led his fleet to Hachijo Island, and according to the agreement, the captured Japanese were 'traded' here. Hachijojima is an island at the southern tip of the Izu Islands, in the Izu Islands, Izu Oshima is the closest to the main island of Japan, Izu Oshima has always been the penal colony of Japan, Minamoto Yoritomo was exiled there, Hachijo Island is the most remote, and the nearest Mikura Island in the archipelago is also 75 kilometers, such a remote island is naturally not welcomed, there were originally more than a dozen fishermen on the island, and some time ago it has been forcibly demolished, and now it has become a logistics base and a 'exchange' place for all kinds of pirates.

Han Huanzhang has to come here every time he boards the 6th operation, after all, there are a bunch of men and women on the ship, and eating, drinking, and lazing are all problems, which strictly affects the combat power and mobility 'sex'. Plus supplies are also very important, for example, Han Huanzhang's ship is steam-powered and sail-powered, which needs to be refueled regularly, and then there are meteor bombs, which need to be replenished in time after consumption.

Ma Fen happened to be on Bazhang Island in the past two days, and as soon as Han Huanzhang got off the boat, he saw Meng Jiu coming over, and after saluting, he whispered that Captain Ma was invited, and Han Huanzhang rushed to follow Meng Jiu.

Coming to a temporary camp surrounded by barbed wire, Han Huanzhang saw the familiar log barracks, as soon as he entered the 'door', Ma Fen had been waiting behind the 'door', and when Han Huanzhang crossed the threshold of the 'door', he came to a bear hug, and then laughed.

Han Huanzhang hurriedly took off his helmet, threw the helmet on the table, and shouted:

"It's going to suffocate! This helmet pulls the wind, it's just too stuffy. "Han Huanzhang always wears a helmet when he comes out to 'show' his face, this is for the sake of caution, so as not to leak the province, after all, the pirate team here on Hachizhang Island is very complicated, and Han Huanzhang is the leader of the "returnees", but you must not let people know that you have changed to pirates.

Ma Fen pointed to the gray 'colored' helmet hanging on the wall and said with a smile:

"I'm not the same! I wear this helmet when I go out. "Ma Fen came here to work quietly, and he couldn't be recognized, if he knew that Ma Fen had arrived on Hachijo Island, God knows what rumors would come from outside! Ma Fen doesn't like shiny enamel white armor, whether it is the scale armor he wears or the helmet, they are all made of wrought iron hot-dip galvanized material.

When Han Huanzhang took off the blindfold, it was much more pleasing to the eye. What is different from usual is that today's Han Huanzhang is a beard, Ma Fen couldn't tell for a while, whether Han Huanzhang in front of him has more of an artist's temperament or a pirate's temperament, after looking up and down, Ma Fen joked:

"Our great artist, yes, seems to be a pirate leader. This time it's a good job! It is said that the first two times were very beautiful, a pirate in white armor, but unfortunately it is the image of a one-eyed dragon, otherwise, the Japanese girl will be 'fascinated' by your king. Ma Fen's ridicule was accompanied by a positive evaluation.

Ma Fen's words made Han Huanzhang feel very comfortable to hear, although we are just a guest pirate, but no matter how you say it, we also belong to a top pirate with knowledge and cultivation, a pirate among artists, and an artist among pirates. Han Huanzhang was proud in his heart and said proudly:

"Isn't it just going ashore and arresting a few people! Small meaning, I am out, and little Japan is only abused. Having said that, it's not a big skill to deal with civilians after all, and it's really bad to challenge 'sex', damn! It's really not exciting enough. As for the Japanese girls, they are short and ugly, and they can't bear to look at them after makeup, so they don't have any appetite at all. Hehe, people are catching more and more, and this time nearly 500 people were arrested, Boss Ma, 'pay' the money with one hand, 'hand' the goods with the other, and take the money. Han Huanzhang put on a look of being in a hurry to count the money, and only then did he remember that there were casualties this time, and his feelings turned into depression, and said, "Damn! This time, the idea was a bit back, and I met a group of Japanese samurai who did not want to die, and three of our men were killed and more than 20 were injured, and these people had to stay on this island for the time being to recuperate. ”

When Han Huanzhang did the first pirate business, he was really nervous, for fear of encountering a 'fierce' resistance, but in fact, the whole process was simply easy. The second time was about the same, even easier than the first, and there was no resistance at all. Han Huanzhang thought that the Japanese were sheep, and it had always been difficult to force demolition, but it was as easy as organizing a group tour to do it. It turns out that the technical content of the profession of pirates is nothing more than that, as long as you are brave enough and do not have much effort, you can win the reputation of a well-known pirate in the world.

Unfortunately, two consecutive good fortunes could not be staged, and during the third operation, they encountered fierce resistance, and a group of Japanese samurai tried to drive their "Yelu" gang into the sea. A meteor bullet smashed over here, and the Japanese samurai who resisted were stunned at that time, and then dozens of Zhuge crossbows were 'shot' one after another, and more than 80 Japanese samurai were quickly destroyed. After the fact, three of his men died, and more than 20 people were injured, three of whom were seriously injured, while the others were slightly injured. But no matter how you say it, it was also a little setback, Han Huanzhang felt that the death of his subordinates was a big deal after all, and it was not easy to hide it from Ma Fen.

In Ma Fen's eyes, it was normal to have deaths and injuries, so he was relieved:

"This casualty is nothing, and it's normal to pay a price when acting on someone else's land."

When Han Huanzhang heard it, yes, Ci is not in charge of the troops, this casualty is a 'hair'! As a result, Han Huanzhang had a sense of peace of mind. However, this time is a lesson after all, and the protection needs to be strengthened, so when he thought about it, he rushed to the horse and said:

"The three people who died this time are not equipped with scale armor, so you have to help me get the scale armor ready, I don't want to see my men die again."

It is worth mentioning that the armor made by Mao Geng is still very powerful, Han Huanzhang and the two white 'women' wear white armor, ordinary minions do not have the treatment of white armor, but half of them are equipped with Mao's stamping scale armor, the difference between their scale armor and white armor is that there is no enamel layer. It is also stamped scale armor, each scale is stamped out of the stiffener, so that it is both light and thin and has enough strength, plus after the hot dip galvanizing, the light yì will not rust, although the gray and white 'color' armor is not as eye-catching as the white armor, but it is also very good-looking, and it is of course much stronger than the traditional scale armor of the Great Song Dynasty. Therefore, when facing the desperate fight of the Japanese samurai, the superior 'nature' of Mao's scale armor was revealed, if it weren't for the lack of scale armor, the three subordinates might not have died.

"Who do you think you are! You're a pirate leader, you know! A group of pirates, it is already very good to be able to equip half of the scale armor, if you really have the scale armor, the Japanese will suspect that you are the official army of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

"That's just as well!"

"Be careful! There's nothing wrong with being careful. Don't touch the Japanese, catch people if you can, don't force them if you can't catch them, anyway, the effect is basically out. ”

Did it work so quickly! We're not addicted yet! Han Huanzhang then asked about the performance of other pirate teams, and then from Ma Fen's mouth, Han Huanzhang got some numbers, I have to say, these numbers are very frustrating, because Han Huanzhang's performance is at the bottom, Lin Gui has already captured more than 4,000 people, Bu Biao's team is not bad, more than 2,000 have been captured, and Han Huanzhang's team has only captured less than 1,000.

Han Huanzhang was 'provoked' by the stab. He didn't want to think about it, whether it was Lin Gui or Bu Biao, they were all old bandits, and the people and horses of the people cooperated tacitly, and the command at the head was well-organized, of course, they were stronger than Han Huanzhang.

Han Huanzhang was not convinced and refused to admit defeat, and the result was that Han Huanzhang decided to do a big vote next.

Han Huanzhang decided that next time he must find a bigger town, and the location, of course, depends on the place where the Japanese economy is centered, so as to quickly improve performance. The first three times, Han Huanzhang also met a few Japanese landlords, what is contemptible is that the assets of those small Japanese landlords are simply not enough to see, Han Huanzhang originally wanted to figure out guò to fight the local tyrants, but the rich households in the village are not qualified to be called "local tyrants", which is too disappointing. Maybe it's true that the village is too small, the location is too remote, and if you still target the village like the one before, you won't have the 'excitement' to grab it.

The fourth operation of the "Yelu" gang pirate fleet was launched as scheduled, and after investigation and selection, this time the target of the "Yelu" gang was a small town not far from Kyoto, according to estimates, there should be almost 200 households, not less than 1,000 people, and 1,000 people at a time, Han Huanzhang felt that it should not be a big problem.

At first, the movement was quite smooth, and most of the town of Reid was driven to a flat ground, but suddenly, an accident happened, and the scouts who had been released from afar appeared in surprise, and more than two hundred Japanese samurai suddenly appeared one by one from the horizon, and among them there were thirty samurai on horseback, most likely Japanese cavalry.

Han Huanzhang got the report, and immediately cobbled together two hundred people to meet the battle, although the shape was a little out of control, but Han Huanzhang was still not ready to let go of this town, this town has a local tyrant with a high 'door', and some merchants are also quite wealthy, at this moment he made up his mind, the property should be robbed, and the population should be arrested.

There was a rumbling sound in the west of the town, it can be imagined that it was a meteor bullet in Weiwei, plus this time he also found twenty grenades from Ma Fen, it can be expected that with the meteor bullet plus grenade, as well as Mao's scale armor and Zhuge repeater, it is only a matter of time before this team of ignorant Japanese samurai is destroyed, as for their own casualties, in Ma Fen's words, it is worth paying a little price.

The west side was fighting lively, and there was no idleness here, the crowd gathered in the field was getting denser and denser, and the property on the carriage was piling up higher and higher, Han Huanzhang, who thought he was in command, was asking if he was going to catch the lot and kill the head, Pang Lao and the four wolves ran over, only to see that his helmet was crooked, and the scale armor was already scarred, what is the situation!

Pang Laosi finally knew how to measure himself, and it wasn't until he came to Han Huanzhang's side that he whispered:

"The Japanese have cavalry, and there are reinforcements behind, and the brothers can still block it for a while, let's talk about it!"

The battle over there was very 'fierce' from the beginning, and these samurai were not intimidated by the meteor bullets, the first three times. The shooting of the 'meteor bombs did not all explode, I think the Japanese figured out some of the ways, so this time the meteor bombs smashed out although the effect was good, but did not completely suppress the Japanese samurai, the Japanese cavalry began to might, the Japanese cavalry wore armor, Zhuge even the crossbow could not be fatal with a blow, fortunately the grenade was thrown out in time, which killed and injured most of the cavalry, but the Japanese samurai sacrificed their lives to fight, and the pirates could not drive out this group of samurai for a while, and soon after reinforcements came, Pang Lao Er, who led the pirate team here, saw that the situation was not right, and immediately ordered Pang Lao Si to report to Han Huanzhang。

Han Huanzhang also panicked at this time, but at this time, he could only strengthen himself and stabilize his mind, and while letting people gather the team, he did not forget to order the rich tyrant's family to be killed. The Japanese crowd in the assembly listened to what Kobayashi Takeo said, check the xx local tyrants who did all kinds of evil, rampant in the township, King Yelu specially eliminated harm for the people, and all the land owned by his family was distributed to the poor, Yunyun.

Then Han Huanzhang led the crowd to evacuate, and more than 70 of the brothers who blocked the attack did not come back this time, according to the Japanese, it should be the 'jade' broken.

After Han Huanzhang got on the boat, he was shocked, and another bad news came, there were many Japanese ships on both sides, there were as many as fifty or sixty large and small, and this time it seemed that there was a lot of annoyance.
