Chapter 853 Raid on the Wa Soldier Water Camp

At seven o'clock in the evening, the starry sky is dotted. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Mt. Okubu is not actually a mountain, not even a mound, at most it can be called a highland, or relatively speaking, the reason why the Japanese sailor battalion is stationed here is the geographical location, the intersection of the two sea rivers, the west can patrol the port, the east can patrol the inland river, and the north and south can patrol Kume Island and Shuri Castle.

In fact, there are only more than 300 sailors stationed here, but it is not the only sailor camp under Hisamori Kayama, this place is only used to inspect the port of Naha and deter the Ryukyu royal family, his real sailor camp is in the northern Ryukyu port of Yunten, which was the landing port of the Japanese army, and is now also a cargo port, the Satsuma clan resold goods from the Japanese mainland and the port of transportation of minerals plundered from the Ryukyus.

The commander of the Naha Port Sailor Battalion, Hirazawa, is a close retainer of Kayama Hisamo, and it sounds like a good thing, but in fact, he is a servant of a large family in the Ming Dynasty, but he is just the kind of person who is relatively trustworthy.

At this moment, Pyeongtaek is not in the camp, and after being full of wine and food, he went to Fengma City to have fun, after all, these sailors are soldiers and thieves on weekdays, and they collude with some pirates to call them brothers, so they have no task of suppressing bandits, and they don't need to patrol anything.

The upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, the commanders have gone out to have a good life, and the other soldiers are almost virtuous, except for a few who go on duty after the meal, the rest are either out for a stroll, or a few are surrounded to brag and gamble, the barracks are all this little bit of flowers, and they don't notice any difference today.

The cozy, lazy moment was broken in a faint rumbling sound, could it be that it was thunder, and when the soldiers were still confused, suddenly a warning sounded outside the camp, and a gong struck the earth......

What's wrong? What's the matter, the Japanese soldiers immediately panicked, some hurriedly dressed, some pulled their legs and ran out, and those who were a little shocked even knew to get weapons.

"Report, the direction of the port ......" a Japanese soldier hurriedly ran to a leader with a gong, but it was no longer necessary, everyone's eyes had already followed the prestige, the explosion in the direction of the port continued to burst into the sky, and a small team of sailors was stationed there.

"Look, look, look......"

A Japanese soldier pointed in the direction of the port, and dozens of huge pillars of light at the mouth of the sea were moving along the Haihe River in the direction of the barracks......

The dazzling pillar of light, and the inexplicable roar, what kind of monster is this, the Japanese soldiers immediately panicked, after all, there are few fishing boats in these years, and the engine and headlights are fear for them in this dark night.

"Hurry up and report to Lord Pyeongtaek......" The little leader panicked, looking at the pillar of light that was getting closer and closer to the river, and felt that his legs were filled with lead: "Come on, release the arrows...... Muskets, muskets ......"

There was a loud bang, and before the little leader could finish his words, a gas canister shell fell beside him......

"It's enough for them to drink a pot......" In the chaos of rocks on the other side of the river, Zhang Long smiled at the corner of his mouth and was observing with a telescope, at half past six he ordered an attack, and the warships on standby on the sea immediately dispatched, and after more than ten minutes of passing by the port sentry, he easily solved a few cannons, and drove straight into the Haihe River to get close to the camp of the Japanese army, not landing, only bombardment!

It's that simple and crude!

Looking at the artillery fire on the other side, Zhang Long picked up the walkie-talkie: "Send out two warships to patrol the Haihe River, but if there is a boat that sinks directly, another boat will be sent to pick me up" As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at Ye Tan, who was still staring at the opposite bank with a telescope: "Let's go, go to Shuri Castle for a while!"

"Huh? This way, this is the end of the matter? Ye Tan looked confused, this was just the start of the war.

"Otherwise," Zhang Long spread his hands: "Just a few cannons of that small water-breaking camp will be blown up, what do you want?" ā€

"Only bomb the camp, what about those fish that slipped through the net......" Ye Tan wondered.

"That's the finishing touch, the work done during the day" Zhang Long smiled slightly, looking at the fire on the other side: "Just this bombing, it is difficult for the Japanese soldiers to have a few fish that slip through the net, so there is no need to risk landing, it is difficult to make some mistakes and cause unnecessary casualties in this dark and unfamiliar ground, and then clean up well until dawn tomorrow, tonight, just block the waterway."

Ye Tan nodded when he heard this: "It's just inevitable to startle the snake......"

"Maybe it's to lure the snake out of the hole."

Zhang Long interrupted Ye Tan's words, his eyes showed a cunning look: "Tonight's fireworks will alarm many people, and it will also lead to many people, and it is destined to be a sleepless night tonight."

As he spoke, he waved his hand lightly and looked at a warship approaching on the river: "Let's go, go to Shuri Castle."

Eight o'clock in the evening.

Shuri Castle, which is across the sea from Kume Island, had already entered a state of sleep, but now, as Zhang Long expected, a fireworks show woke up many people in their dreams, attracting many snakes, ghosts, snakes and gods from all walks of life.

The shore of Shurijo Castle seems to be very lively, and many torches are flashing back and forth, especially concentrated in the southeast, so you can imagine that all kinds of ghosts, snakes, and gods have come to inquire about the news.

However, in vain, a few beams of white light back and forth on the surface of the Haihe River accompanied by bursts of roars made some people who originally planned to cross the water to find out the news not dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool, because seeing the lively crowd, it was already rumored that the Sea Dragon King had appeared......

Zhang Long, Ye Tan, Zhang Chaoming, and a kayak that five guards had lowered from the warship quietly docked and landed in an inaccessible place.

"You two stay here to respond, don't leave the boat on the surface too far," Zhang Long explained to the two guards, and then hurriedly went ashore with Ye Tan and the others and ran in the direction of Shuri Castle.

The coast is still more than ten miles away from Shuri Castle, and while it is dark at night, Zhang Long and a few people trotted quickly, and soon panted, "I said that you won't get a few horses to pick it up?" ā€

"Forgive me, my lord, I was worried that riding a horse at night would arouse suspicion...... Zhang Chaoming quickly explained.

"Now it seems that you are worried about it too much" Zhang Long smiled bitterly, looking at the torches running back and forth in the dark, as well as the sound of horses' hooves, and the sound of cheers, it can be seen that these people are sent out to inquire about the news!

"Shang Shenggui should live in the royal city as the prime minister, this point royal city should have been closed a long time ago, should we go in?" The guard Cong Fangde couldn't help but ask.

"You can only live in the royal city, and the prime minister only lives near the palace," Zhang Chaoming corrected.

Shuri Castle should be the most loosely guarded capital in history, after all, this is a country without a regular army, after all, as long as you are not close to the palace, no one is too lazy to care about you, so Zhang Long and his party swaggered into the range of Shuri Castle, and even approached the palace.

However, Shurijo Castle is really lively, and although there are no patrols on the streets, you can always see people hurrying around with torches, and you can imagine who they are.

Following Zhang Chaoming, the group was interspersed left and right, picking no one's path and soon came to the back door of a large family.

"Look over there is the royal city" Zhang Chaoming knocked lightly on the door a few times, and pointed to the place not far away in a low voice.

"Is that the gate of Shuri Castle?" Zhang Long couldn't help but ask.

"No, at most, it is the Great Teemon Gate, and the main gate of Shuri Castle is called the Huanhui Gate, which means to welcome the envoy of the Chinese emperor or canonized envoy, and I heard that when an envoy comes, the king of the Ryukyus will kneel down at this gate to ......greet him," Zhang Chaoming gushed.

"No, I heard the God King say before I came, the gate outside the city should be called Shouli Gate, and it is said that it is a plaque with the four big characters of Shouli State given by the Wanli Emperor of the previous dynasty...... The God King also said that there was a chance to remove the plaque......" Zhang Long muttered with a frown.

"Oh, the Shouli Gate that the Lord said is this torii called Shuri, in fact, the four big characters of the State of Shouli were not given by Emperor Wanli, but in an edict there is a sentence that is enough to call the State of Shouli...... Later, the king of the Ryukyus pasted himself with gold, took these four characters and made a plaque, and changed the Shuri gate to guard the ceremonial gate...... However, usually this plaque is not hung out, and it is only hung up when it is canonized......" Zhang Chaoming explained with a smug face, and Zhang Long and the others who listened were dumbfounded.

"Damn, you're such a cow, you even know this thing about collecting intelligence?"

"Hehe, these allusions were actually told to me by Cai Yuanji, I like to listen to them when I have nothing to do" Zhang Chaoming scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Who?"

Just then, a deep voice came from behind the door.
