Hateful Franco-man! Shingoro thought of the group of Western bastards again. It was they, during the Taiping War, who suddenly appeared with a fleet, and the barbarian woman who took the lead, and her subordinates, and the Fujian sailors who cooperated with the Ming Dynasty, actually destroyed all their ships, and the people left behind were also annihilated and scattered, so that their people had no way to retreat at all, and could only flee to the mainland! Otherwise, just with those warships in Fujian, where can they eat their own hundreds of ships in one bite? Even if he is defeated, he can lead part of his troops to flee back to Osumi Island, so that he will not be beaten so badly.

Now, there is no way out at sea, so he can only go to Taizhou first. He remembered that Mr. Li Wenzao Li said that he had arranged everything in Taizhou, and this city was completely under his control. After all, it is the capital city of a prefecture, with high walls and thick walls, and it is said that there are dozens of Franc machine guns. As long as you occupy it, you can rest your troops and look for an opportunity to seize the coastal ships and escape back to Osumi.

As for revenge, forget it, this kind of god-like army, I don't want to touch it a second time in my life. After the Franc machine in Taizhou is dismantled, it can be sold to the Otomo family or the main family, and the funds exchanged for it can at least restore some vitality. Moreover, Yan Qincha of the Ming Dynasty is also in Taizhou, and his flag is hanging high in the city, and he has long heard about it at sea. As long as he can be caught, he can extort a ransom from the hands of the powerful ministers of the Ming Dynasty to subsidize his losses. The rest will have to wait until the war is over. Eh, the damn wound is starting to attack again, so let's get to Taizhou first.

Just when Xin Wulang was thinking about how to rest his troops in Taizhou and where to get some wine, suddenly the soldier in charge of the scout came to report: "Enemy soldiers. Enemy soldiers. To the fore! ”

Xin Goro only felt that his eyes were dark. Almost fainting, he quickly endured the pain and strode to the front of the group, only to see a force of several hundred people blocking the way on the official road ahead. The formation of these people is very strange, if it was before, he would have sneered directly, saying that it was a vulnerable rabble. But after the peace. He couldn't be so sure. In the Battle of Taiping, the Zhejiang soldiers also looked very scattered in formation, but after receiving the enemy, they beat themselves to the ground. These people look chaotic in formation, maybe it's some kind of novel formation.

As for the clothes on those people, it really didn't look like a regular army, but maybe it was a disguise, in Xinhe, didn't those women scare Katsukumaru with their disguises, and then beat him with a surprise attack? But who am I? I'm Shingoro. This kind of trick will not work for me.

One way or another. Now that we have reached this point, what else can we do except fight to the death? The fighting spirit of the Japanese samurai boiled in his blood, and for a while, it seemed that the pain had been reduced a little. Xin Wulang pulled out his sword, raised his arms and shouted: "Warriors, the pursuers have come around in front of our eyes and want to stop us from going to Taizhou!" Don't be afraid, everyone, rush over and kill them, we have more troops than them, and we will be victorious! Assault of the whole army! ”

In fact, although the total number of the troops at hand of Yan Hong was greater than that of the Japanese army, in fact, except for the Zhejiang soldiers and Jinyi guards who served as the core, the intimidating effect of the others was far greater than the actual effect, and the combat effectiveness could not be compared with this group of Japanese soldiers at all. However, Xin Wulang misjudged them to be Zhejiang soldiers and told the truth about it. Now his troops have all been frightened by the Zhejiang soldiers, and you also mention that there are Zhejiang soldiers on the other side, which is equivalent to sprinkling salt on the wound.

As a result, in his mobilization, except for the twenty samurai and a few outlaws in the team who were still able to fight, they raised their weapons and shouted in response, and the other peasant soldiers who were recruited not only did not stimulate their blood, but completely mobilized the already low morale.

You must know that although Japan's Warring States Period was fierce, famous generals from all walks of life surged and wars were endless, but in fact, after a Warring States period, the Japanese population rose instead of falling. Of course, this is not that Japan has any black technology, but in this era, the core of Japan's main combat force is the samurai, and the cornerstone is the peasant soldiers. The treatment of Japanese peasants was even worse than that of their counterparts in the Ming Dynasty, and they even had to provide their own military rations for the war. Therefore, if you want the Japanese peasants to be willing to fight for the daimyo with all their hearts, it is better to expect rice to fall from the sky. Generally, the normal situation of the Japanese civil war is that tens of thousands of troops are fighting, and one of them has killed more than 100 people, and the main casualties are the core samurai, so this side loses its backbone, and the remaining peasants and soldiers all disperse, each returning to his own home, each looking for his own mother.

Of course, the true widows who were willing to follow Xin Goro to Daming were much stronger than those peasants who were conscripted in the local civil war, and many of them were outlaws who hoped to make a fortune by robbing their homes and houses. But for these people, it's okay to make them rich, and it's not impossible to make them desperate. The only condition is that there must be a profit, and there must be a hope of winning.

But what about now? Xin Wulang led 5,000 troops, full of spirit and wanted to loot a few famous cities and make a fortune, who knew that since he arrived in Daming, except for fighting the peace, he had never won any battles, and he saw that his team continued to die, but he didn't get the slightest advantage. From officers to soldiers, hungry, they couldn't even drink water, they were wounded without medicine, and even the ships were destroyed...... In this case, except for a few hot-blooded people, who is still in the mood to fight!

It's good at this time, you Xin Wulang actually let us rush towards the oncoming Zhejiang army, is this taking us for idiots? Since there are Zhejiang soldiers on the other side, what we should do is to run, the faster we run, the better, and if we run late, we will die! There are also faces that say that there are more of us, and there are more of us in Taiping, and what is the result? Isn't it less now? And how can we not see any casualties among the Zhejiang soldiers!

In the midst of this hesitation and resentment, the Japanese army striker slowly approached Yan Hong's team. Ye Zhengfei gave an order, Zhejiang Jinyiwei, Beijing Jinyiwei and some local guards were holding shotguns and shooting with bang. At the same time, Yun Chuqi ordered the drums to be beaten, and the whole road, as well as in the woods on both sides, smoke and dust flew, flags were unfurled, and shouts resounded through the forest.

What is it? It's an ambush! The front is Zhejiang's soldiers, and the two wings are Zhejiang's soldiers, what should I do? Most of the real wives in the team no longer have the courage to fight hard, and subconsciously chose the way they thought they were living, turned back, and moved forward at full speed!

Yan Hong's side, originally thought that according to the style of the Japanese Invaders, they must be shouting and rushing wildly, so Ye Zhengfei also deliberately divided the gunmen into three groups and played with three stage shots, striving to suppress them for a while when the Japanese invaders rushed over. Who knew that the first round of platoon guns was fired, and there were no serious people lying down, but the Japanese were like ghosts, some stopped their pace, and some turned around and ran, is this really a real wolf? Of course, there are still dozens of people who still run up regardless of life and death, but in this way, it seems that the enemy's position is even more chaotic and collapsed.

Yun Chuqi didn't expect this time that the real wolf couldn't help but fight, but he saw the opportunity very quickly, and immediately ordered: "Zhengfei, the musket will be fired again!" General Wu, wave your army forward! Two wings, fight it out together! ”

Ye Zhengfei glared at Yun Chuqi: "The whole army is in unison!" With a bang, another row of guns shot out, and dozens of Japanese robbers who were still advancing, and more than a dozen people were shot. Then the brocade guards put away their firearms and retreated from between the gaps in the mandarin duck formation to the back of the formation.

Wu Weizhong shouted: "Formations, attack!" Leading the six mandarin duck formations, lined up one by one, while launching a charge, he picked up the horn and sang: "All the people are united in the mountains can be shaken, but loyalty and righteousness rush to the bullfight...... but I heard a few screams and the sound of the blades, and the Japanese who rushed up were stabbed by the mandarin duck array more than ten times in a blink of an eye, and the rest could no longer support it, and ran away with their heads in their arms.

At first, this song was only sung by dozens of Zhejiang soldiers, but soon hundreds of Jinyi guards and Gengjiazhai villagers in front of them also sang along, and then the woods on both sides also resounded with singing. The chorus of 1,000 people, mixed with more than a dozen iron trumpets in the middle, was earth-shattering, converging into a wave of sound, startling the birds in the forest to flutter and fly around.

At the same time, the Zhejiang soldiers, Wenzhou knights and villagers who were originally ambushed on both sides of the woods also danced with knives and sticks and rushed out to kill. Namu was the most excited, shouting: "Thousands of real widows! Thousands of real people! Don't even rob me! Keep my head for me! ”

As soon as the song sounded, even the bravest widows lost their courage. Amaterasu is above, can this other be pretended, can this damn spell be impersonated? Outside Taiping City, those ghostly and brave Zhejiang soldiers are singing this, beating themselves to the ground, this time it must be them! Now that there are enemies on three sides, don't you run, wait for death?

As a result, the team ran and threw Xin Goro, who had rushed to the front of the team, to the back. His gunshot wound flare-up at this time, and half of his body was numb from the pain. There were only a dozen attendants around him who were desperately guarding him. Seeing the ambush on both flanks and the Ming army on the opposite side covering up, their own troops did not have the courage to fight. Some people even went to the back of their heads with the big wooden sticks of the Han people, but they just covered their heads and rolled to the ground, forgetting to resist.

"It's over!" Shingoro let out a long sigh. He knew that he would never be able to reach Taizhou this time. "Fifty years in the world is like a dream and an illusion. How can those who once were alive perish! Singing this song in his mouth, Xin Wulang reluctantly raised his sword and rushed towards the Ming army opposite. A true samurai should not have died from a wound in the back. He shouted in his mouth: "Xin Wulang is the queen of the whole army today, and he died here!" ”

The chief's behavior does work. The soul of the brave and fierce warriors that was originally in the blood of the Japanese people, although they were consumed by the defeats, hunger, thirst, exhaustion, and the great shock of the enemy army at this moment, were now inspired by the spirit of the Lord to calmly die, and they were rekindled. One by one, the samurai reflexively came over and killed the reverse. Their cronies, escorts, and some usually fierce civilians and widows, also followed and launched a counter-charge.
