Chapter 475: Komatsu Settlement
The pangolin fleet has been sailing southeast along the route for four days at this time, and the load of their ships is 1,200 tons, and they do not carry goods, only counting the weight of the ships themselves, weapons, crews, and necessary supplies, these can reach the weight of 400 tons, and this time each ship is loaded with 600 tons of goods, and they do not expect to exchange these goods for money at all, but only to show the wealth of Liaozhong.
Of course, it would be best if you could get gold and silver jewelry at the same price.
Li Yang gave a map of the population distribution of Japan, but most of the population is concentrated on the east coast of the Pacific Ocean, and the west coast is sparsely populated, but after discussion, Lin Mosheng still decided to go to the region to have a look.
The most densely populated cities there have a population of no less than five million, and the cities are very concentrated, if after the catastrophe, people will flee to relatively remote places, after all, the more concentrated the population, the more zombies.
It was getting dark, and the four days of sailing did not cost the soldiers the slightest loss in their high morale, especially when dawn came, and the lookouts on the mainmast began to shout.
"Found the land, found the land!"
Lin Mosheng was woken up by Captain Shao Linyi, and after a while, they all came to the deck, Lin Mosheng was in the telescope that had just been fixed, these telescopes produced by Pingyang Glass Factory, although the magnification can reach forty times, but the clarity is too poor.
But what they want now is not clarity, but the ability to see the other side.
"No anomalies were found on the shore, and the three boats pulled away, leaned in, and observed along the coast."
I don't know where this place is now, but I only know that it is near Wakasa Bay in Japan, and maybe it is already in Wakasa Bay.
They didn't expect to see people as soon as they saw land, but they were lucky, and after sailing south along the coast for just over an hour, they came across a clearly walled area.
"We're lucky, there's a fence that proves to be human-run land, get closer, damn binoculars, you can't see anything."
But when they got closer, they could see it clearly.
"Well, the fence is very big, and the center is an airport! A settlement built around the airport! "The lookout is constantly reporting what he can see.
Below, Lin Mosheng and Captain Shao Linyi spread out the map and were studying where they were.
"Are there any landmarks. Billboards or something. ”
"I'll see!" The lookout was a first-class person with good eyes on the ship, and soon he said through the binoculars: "Ataka Beach, wait, wait, Komatsu City, Komatsu Airport!" This is Komatsu Airport! ”
Shao Linyi instantly clicked on the map and said, "Xiao Song! Well, I found it, we don't have any energy in Wakasa Bay, we're still north of Wakasa Bay, and we have to go south. ”
"There are people, there are quite a few people, the airport is full of newly built buildings, etc." The lookout suddenly shouted the same as when he first discovered land!
"What's wrong?"
"My dear! It's a good time for us to come, there's a war going on in this settlement! I could see smoke rising in the distance, and I couldn't see it too far on the city wall, but I could see that it was densely packed with people, and it should be a war! ”
"It's a coincidence, when you encounter a human settlement, you have to help, the fleet is close, but remember, keep a certain distance from the land, people's hearts are unpredictable, and the heart of defense is indispensable." Lin Mosheng quickly gave the order.
This place, which is temporarily called the Komatsu Settlement, is an oval-shaped settlement built on the sea with Komatsu City and Komatsu Airport as the main body, and the area is not large, and when the fleet is close, you can clearly see the battle of the outer wall for several kilometers.
The wall was made of earth and gravel, about four meters high, and could be seen clearly, and it was full of people who were wielding weapons and slashing hard.
"It's a zombie! It has been determined that it is a zombie, and it is estimated that there are more than 100,000 when you look at the scene. ”
"The three ships quickly deployed, the second ship is due north, the third ship is south, and the first ship hits the east, and hits farther away, so as not to be injured by mistake as much as possible."
Lin Mosheng gave the order to support, the three ships quickly deployed, the lookout began to use theodolite observations, transmit the coordinates of the shelling, the six 75-mm cannons on each ship lifted the armor, and the shells were carried up from the cabin one by one.
As the flag-bearers continued to be busy, the three ships were ready after twenty minutes, and as a red flare was lifted into the air, the three ships let out a terrifying roar, and eighteen cannons began to shell the zombies outside the city walls.
Originally, the fight was extremely difficult, because of the supply of ammunition, the defenders of the Komatsu settlement who had already brandished their katanas and started hand-to-hand combat with the zombies were ready to sacrifice, not only adults, but even young people, old people and women were wielding their weapons to fight with the zombies in the city, they used planks and stones to maintain the settlement from being destroyed, but they knew that there were at least 100,000 zombies outside, and they were now at most more than 10,000 people in the Komatsu settlement, they couldn't hold it, and they had no way to retreat, so they could only carry it to the death, Finally, he was overwhelmed by this rolling zombie tide.
But they didn't expect that after a night of fierce fighting, when they were exhausted, there would be a turnaround.
Artillery support!
When they saw the cannonballs falling into the corpses and the smoke rising, they were all crazy, and the sluggish morale was lifted in an instant, and they struggled to push the zombies off the city wall again, watching the shelling continue to bombard the zombies outside the wall, and the air waves blew down the zombies one by one, and the dense formation of the zombies was destroyed and destroyed.
Everyone took the time to look at where the shelling was coming from, and they saw that three large sailing ships at sea were constantly spitting tongues of fire.
Boats, where did they come from?
But this is not their concern, they only know now that as long as they hold on, the zombies will definitely retreat.
But they looked too highly at the zombies, and half an hour after the shelling, the intelligent zombies in the zombie group saw that the shelling did not stop, and they knew that this time there was no chance, and the zombies receded like a tide, leaving only pieces of corpses under the city walls.
The people of the Komatsu settlement cheered and celebrated that they had survived again, and the celebration lasted until nine o'clock in the morning, when people gathered on the shore and watched the three galleons docked a kilometer away from the coast and swing in a row, and a small boat was lowered and slowly sailed to the shore.
"Hello, we are from Huaxia, from Northeast China, and we are here for trade."
Of the three people who disembarked from the boat, one of the men spoke in fluent Japanese. R1148
