Chapter 487: Occupation
There is actually a reason why Matsumoto is so angry!
Originally, he was in charge of the defense of the entire Asahi Province, but it was not limited to the corner of the Chiba Islands!
Because of this, his army was not stationed in the Chiba Islands, but in the interior of the northern part of Asahi Province.
After the news came that the Chiba Islands had been completely captured, Matsumoto didn't pay much attention to it, after all, the Chiba Islands are not only located in a key position, but also lonely overseas, and there is some distance from the Asahi mainland.
In addition, pirates often roam the sea, so there are often some unsightly pirates attacking pirates.
However, even if these pirates no longer open their eyes, they did not dare to provoke the regular army from the Asahi country, and after Matsumoto led the army to crush it, they had already disappeared without a trace.
It's just that when Matsumoto's army was just halfway to the Chiba Islands, he happened to encounter the defenders from the Chiba Islands.
After asking, I learned that there were only about twenty pirates who captured the Chiba Islands, and they sneaked into the hinterland of the Chiba Islands under the cover of night, so that the defenders in their sleep were captured, and there was not even the slightest resistance.
Fortunately, the pirates did not bother the defenders, but after disarming them, they were all put on the boat and left to fend for themselves.
This is also thanks to the fact that they happened to encounter the army that Matsumoto came to counterattack, otherwise, if they were allowed to float aimlessly like this, even if they did not starve to death, I am afraid that they would be buried in the belly of the fish and not even half of the scum left.
After learning the news, there is no need to ask, Matsumoto's mood must be shocked and angry!
The regular army of the dignified Asahi country, I am afraid that there must be hundreds of people close to the front number, but I feel ashamed to be wrapped in dumplings by dozens of people like this.
Matsumoto, who was deeply ashamed, immediately didn't say a word, and directly incorporated these defenders into his own team, and marched towards the Chiba Islands together.
Matsumoto's idea is also very clear, that is, to recapture the Chiba Islands at all costs, and to wash away the shame he suffered with the blood of those pirates.
However, the script clearly did not come out the way Matsumoto envisioned.
Almost just as the Chiba Islands were already in sight, and all the warriors were gearing up to land and slash at each other, a cannonball flew in and smashed into a battleship on the side.
Seeing that the battleship full of people was directly broken from it without any fancy fancy, and then slowly capsized into the sea, the people who survived and kept crying for help were less than half of the original ship, not only Asahi ****, but even Matsumoto was a little blind.
Obviously, except for those who were lucky enough to survive and were still crying, the others were basically buried in the belly of the fish.
It's just that Matsumoto really can't figure it out, how could a pirate who is only in his twenties suddenly be so violent, and there would be such a heavy weapon?
If you think with your toes, you can throw a cannonball to such a long distance in one fell swoop, and it has such terrifying power, then it must be a cannon with an amazing caliber, and a weapon like this, not to mention that the defenders of Chiba Island do not have it at all, and even the Asahi country itself, a few shore defense guns will definitely not have such power.
Come to think of it, only the Ukrainian province across the sea has such a powerful weapon.
The word "Ukraine" just popped up in his head, but Matsumoto couldn't help but be startled, because immediately after that, he thought of a person.
I have to say that if it is really that person, with his strength, if he wants to capture a mere Chiba Islands, it is really a no-brainer!
The more you are afraid, the more you come!
Before Matsumoto could be frightened, he saw a small assault boat speeding towards this side at a lightning speed.
Although the scale of this assault boat was extremely small, not even a tenth of the flagship under his feet, but even so, Matsumoto still did not dare to act rashly.
This is not only because of the speed of this assault boat, it seems to have far exceeded the limit that manpower can reach, it clearly has its own unexpected power, even if it is really done by itself, with its strong and keen mobility, I am afraid that I can't even reach half a point.
Moreover, on the side of the assault boat, a swarthy heavy machine gun could be seen, behind which a soldier in combat uniform was lying on his stomach, and a pair of eyes locked coldly through the scope of the heavy machine gun.
Although I haven't seen it before, but through the information, Matsumoto still knows the power of this big guy, and if he wields his power without any scruples, he may only be beaten as a target on his side!
The most important thing is that on the assault boat, you can clearly see a big flag, and the familiar big word "cold" on it makes Matsumoto feel cold, and he no longer has the slightest courage to do it.
That's right, the assault boat was carrying a messenger from the cold wind!
This young man, who looked like he was full of books with a gentle face, did not have the slightest scruple, but after boarding Matsumoto's flagship, he greeted him warmly.
However, it wasn't until the anxious Matsumoto began to ask about the news from the Chiba Islands euphemistically, the young man replied directly, the Chiba Islands were suddenly attacked by pirates, and it happened that they happened to have a fleet cruising around, and after getting the news, they came in the starry night, and now they have completely annihilated the pirates on the island.
Matsumoto couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard the news, but when he mentioned his request to land on the island, he was sternly rejected by the messenger.
The reason is simple, that is, although the pirates on the island have been eliminated, there are still remnants who have escaped to the surrounding coastal areas, so Matsumoto and others cannot be allowed to go to the island without the vigilance being lifted.
This time, Matsumoto is a Buddha born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven!
You must know that this Chiba Island is its own territory, even if it is temporarily lost because of pirate attacks, but now that your army has come, it is impossible to say that you are not allowed to land on the island, right?
However, the messenger was obviously not expecting Matsumoto's reply, and after saying his request, he took it upon himself to board the assault boat again, and then disappeared all the way.
Originally, Matsumoto planned to lead the fleet to get closer and test it, but then a few shells burst in, but the luck that he originally had in his heart was completely shattered!
Although this time it was obvious that the other party was merciful and did not cause any casualties, the intention of the warning was very obvious.
Obviously, if Matsumoto and the others dare to approach desperately, then they will immediately become the target of the roaring cannonballs!
"That's right!"
After listening to Matsumoto's narration, Leng Feng said with a slight smile.
"Now the pirates around the Chiba Islands have not been completely eliminated, so for the sake of safety, we also need to strengthen vigilance, but the most important thing is that in order to rescue Chiba Island, some ships have run aground, and the materials in them are damp, so Chiba Island is needed to dry supplies and repair ships!"
"You ......"
Matsumoto, who pointed at the cold wind, was angry for a while, but he couldn't speak!
I've seen shameless, but I've never seen such shameless!
At this time, Matsumoto even suspected that the pirates who captured Chiba Island in one fell swoop were also impersonated by those guys under Leng Feng.
After all, the elite equipment and training of the special forces under his command are well known, and even Hillary's old elite Praetorian Guard is inferior.
And most importantly, it all happened by coincidence.
Why was it that this Chiba Island was captured just now, and the cold wind got the news and then Baba rushed over? If there was no conspiracy in this, Matsumoto would not believe it in killing him.
It's just that there is no evidence, and even if Matsumoto is angry, he almost vomits blood, but even in the face of the extremely poor cold wind, there is nothing he can do.
"General Matsumoto!"
At this time, the God Emperor on the side suddenly spoke, only to see him with a gloomy face.
"For such a major matter, why haven't we even received any news from our side?"
Seeing the unkind look of the god emperor on the other side, Matsumoto couldn't help but panic in his heart, but he knew the temperament of his master well, not only narrow-minded but also good at using the topic to play, if he was not careful, maybe he would be framed for a trumped-up crime!
"Your Excellency!"
Immediately, Matsumoto hurriedly saluted and said.
"This happened so suddenly, even I was a little caught off guard, and after learning that Mr. Cold Wind had already been a guest on Chiba Island, I came here in the starry night!" )
