Chapter 401: Night Attack on Jeju Island
"Boom, boom, boom······"
A deafening roar suddenly sounded in the silent dawn.
Even Jia Cong, who was in the palace, was awakened by the sound of this explosion.
"What's going on? At this time, it is not good to shoot artillery, there is an enemy to attack."
After thinking about it for a while, Jia Cong had already figured out that it was impossible for the island to shoot artillery for no reason, and it was at this time.
Obviously, there should be a sneak attack by the enemy, and the artillery fire on the island will counterattack.
It's just that I don't know who it is, but he has such a big courage, could it be that Goryeo wants to recapture Jeju Island?
Jia Cong suddenly sat up from the bed, planning to go out to see the situation.
Qin Keqing was also awakened, he didn't know what was going on, looking at Jia Cong's appearance, something should have happened.
"Uncle Cong, what's going on outside, could it be that something can't be done?"
At this time, Jia Cong had already gotten out of bed, picked up the clothes next to him, and no one needed to serve him, so he put it on himself.
As he walked out, he said, "Listen to this movement, there should be an enemy invasion, I'll go out and take a look, you don't have to worry, it'll be fine."
Qin Keqing was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect that he had encountered a war just a few days after he came, and this was not a stable place.
However, she still believed in Jia Cong, and after listening to his words, she didn't worry too much.
just shouted at Jia Cong, "Uncle Cong, you must be careful."
"I see, stay here and wait for me to come back."
Jia Cong didn't look back, just raised his arm and waved it vigorously, and then the figure left the hall and disappeared into the darkness.
Qin Keqing muttered, "I hope God blesses Uncle Cong and can come back safely."
At this time, Baozhu and Ruizhu walked in when they heard the movement, and said with a puzzled face.
"Miss, why is Grandpa Guo leaving now? Did you make him angry?"
Qin Keqing glanced at the two of them and said, "What do you think, Uncle Cong is very good to me, how could I make him angry, didn't you hear the cannon outside?" Uncle Cong is not worried, go out and see what is going on, you don't have to worry about it."
Ruizhu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's not good, it scared the two of us just now, I'm afraid that Miss will offend Grandpa Guo, and Miss will suffer in the future."
Qin Keqing said: "Okay, I know that you are for my good, now that this kind of thing has happened, I can't sleep, you serve me to get up, and go outside to see if there is any news."
"Yes, Miss."
The two of them agreed and served Qin Keqing up.
······
Jia Cong returned to his main hall, and Qingwen and Chunxia, Qiudong and several others were already dressed neatly.
Seeing Jia Cong come back, he handed him his long knife.
Jia Cong took the long knife, hung it on his waist, and walked towards the palace gate with the five people.
Before he arrived at the palace gate, he saw Chen Sanmei walking quickly, came to Jia Cong, and bowed.
"Lord Huiyu, Commander Li Biao, and Chief Manager Wangcai, are asking to see you outside the palace gate."
Jia Cong's footsteps didn't stop, and he said vigorously: "I know, I'll go out, and the protection of the palace will be handed over to you, don't let people take advantage of the loopholes."
Chen Sanmei arched her hand and said, "If your subordinates obey the order, they will definitely guard the palace, so you can rest assured."
When I came to the gate of the palace, I saw Li Biao and Wangcai waiting outside.
The two hundred personal soldiers have also been assembled, and they will rush to the battlefield as soon as Jia Cong gives an order.
"Meet your lordship."
After seeing Jia Cong, everyone saluted in unison.
Jia Cong waved his hand and said, "You don't need to be polite."
Turning to Wangcai, he said, "Wangcai, what's going on, do you know who is so bold? Dare to attack Jeju Island at night. Could it be that those *** can't do it?"
Wangcai arched his hand and said, "Lord Hui, because the incident happened suddenly, his subordinates didn't know it
What is the specific situation, however, someone has already been sent to investigate, and Commander Zhang has already rushed over with his troops, I believe that news will come back soon, so my lord should stay here and wait for news."
Jia Cong pondered for a moment and nodded slowly.
The situation is unclear now, even if you rush over in a hurry, your eyes are black, and the effect is not very great.
Since Zhang Dakui has already rushed over with his troops, even if he doesn't bring them all, with those 2,000 cavalry, he can contain the other party.
It is impossible for this group of enemies to attack at night to have cavalry, and a group of infantry, facing the cavalry, is already at a natural disadvantage.
Even if the enemy is strong, you can give full play to the advantages of cavalry and break through and run back.
There is a city wall, and he and others are already invincible.
Unless they can send more than 50,000 troops, or even 100,000 troops, they will have the slightest chance of breaking through Jeju City.
In this case, you don't need to rush over too much.
I just don't know how many people are left in the city?
"Wangcai, how many men and horses did Commander Zhang take away, and how many guards are there in this city?"
Wang Cai said: "Returning to your lordship, Zhang Tong rushed over with two thousand cavalry, and arranged another thousand marines to rush to the accident site on their own, and there were still a thousand soldiers left in the city.
[The app that has been running stably for many years is comparable to the old version of the book-chasing artifact, which is used by old bookworms.]
, you can go all the way to Chu State, go to the coast of Jiangnan to loot, compared to the closer Jeju Island, how can you let it go?
The current Jeju Island is countless times better than the previous Jeju Island, and those Japanese robbers are tempted, but there is also a possibility of this.
As for the rest, it's hard to say, it's said that there are no pirates around here, and even if there are, they don't dare to provoke the water monkeys, they are seeking money, not looking for death.
Knowing the strength of the water monkey and daring to provoke it, isn't that purely looking for death?
Jia Cong only has a general concept of the forces around Jeju Island, which is not very clear, after all, it is the first time to come here.
"I'm not sure if it's from Goryeo, Wangcai, what guess do you have?"
Wangcai said: "My lord, my subordinates guess that it may be the people of Goryeo, after all, their envoys have failed to negotiate with us, and it is possible to recover them by force."
Jia Cong nodded, there is still a great possibility that it is Goryeo.
After thinking about it, he turned his head and said, "Chunlan, Xia Zhu."
"My subordinates are here, please give me orders."
The two stepped forward and bowed.
Jia Cong said, "You two lead a hundred personal soldiers, responsible for staying in the palace and protecting the safety of the palace."
"Yes, my subordinates obey orders and will live up to the trust of my lord."
Chunlan, Xia Zhu, give up their lives.
Jia Cong glanced around at everyone and continued, "The others will follow me to the city and wait for the exact news."
"Yes, my subordinates obey."
The people answered in unison, and then they mounted their horses and hurried to the city gate.
Jia Cong also took the reins, and was just about to get on the horse when Lin Daiyu's voice came from behind him.
"Brother Cong, wait for me, I will go with you too."
When Jia Cong heard this, a wry smile appeared on her face, this girl really wants to be born and die with herself.
When he turned around, he saw Lin Daiyu wearing armor and carrying a waist knife, standing in front of him heroically, followed by Erya and Zijuan, who were also wearing armor and carrying waist knives.
Jia Cong said: "Sister Lin, I don't know what the situation is now, I am going to the city to wait for the news now, the sisters in the palace must be panicked at this time, you, as the mistress of this place, must stay to appease them, I am not here, you are their backbone."
"But ······"
When Lin Daiyu heard this, her face was entangled.
She still wants to follow Brother Cong and fight side by side with him, but it's good that she stays at home again.
Although I was a little unwilling in my heart, I thought that what Jia Cong said was right, if this kind of thing happened, the sisters must be very panicked, and if they stayed, they could indeed appease them.
can be used as their backbone, staying to appease them, and it can be regarded as helping Brother Cong.
Thinking of this, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to Brother Cong, stay in the palace, Brother Cong, you must be careful, my sister is waiting for you to come back."
Jia Cong patted her on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Sister Lin, don't worry, it's okay to have a brother here."
After saying that, he didn't hesitate any longer, turned on his horse, and galloped towards the city gate.
Seeing the backs of Jia Cong and the others, disappearing from sight, Lin Daiyu withdrew her gaze.
looked at the hundred soldiers who stayed outside the palace, as well as Chunlan and Xia Zhu, and knew that Jia Cong had stayed behind to protect them, so he nodded at the two.
He said to Erya and Zijuan, "Let's go, let's go back to the palace."
When the three of them returned to the palace, Xue Baochai, Shi Xiangyun, Yingchun, Tanchun and others surrounded them together.
Xue Baochai said, "Sister Lin, aren't you going to follow Brother Cong? Why did you come back again, and what's going on with the cannon outside?"
Tanchun also said, "Yes, Sister Lin, why did you come back, I still envy you for following the third brother."
Shi Xiangyun said: "If I am as powerful as Sister Lin, I will also follow the third brother to take a look, it must be quite interesting."
Yingchun said, "You can pull it down
Isn't that a mess when you go along? You didn't see Sister Lin coming back."
Lin Daiyu said: "What's going on outside, Brother Cong doesn't know, he has already gone to the city gate, Brother Cong is afraid that you will be afraid, let me stay to give you courage."
Shi Xiangyun said: "Cut, I'm not afraid, this girl hasn't experienced anything, such a small battle, can you still scare me?"
Lin Daiyu rolled her eyes, and said angrily: "As long as you are bold, you are amazing, I don't know who it is, I was almost arrested by Huazi, if we didn't follow behind, some people would be ······miserable."
Before Lin Daiyu finished speaking, Shi Xiangyun pounced on her and covered her mouth.
"Sister Lin, be merciful."
Seeing this, Xichun covered his mouth and giggled.
Everyone also laughed, and the worries in their hearts were washed away a lot.
······
Jia Cong came to the head of the city and looked in the direction of the dock.
At this time, the sound of the cannon had already fallen, and in the distance, there were faint bursts of fighting sounds, which drifted into the ears with the sea breeze.
It seems that the battle at sea is almost over, and the position has shifted to the island, and there should be quite a few people landing.
Under the defenselessness of the island, it is not difficult to be attacked and invade the island, but I don't know how many people came this time.
A moment later, he saw a fast horse, galloping from a distance, and soon came to the city.
Jia Cong waved his hand to let people open the city gate and let people in.
When he came to the top of the city, the man bowed his hand and saluted, "Meet your lord."
Jia Cong waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite, let's talk about it, who is attacking us?" But the people on the Goryeo side?"
The man replied, "Lord Huiyu, the men who attacked us were not the men and horses of Goryeo, but the group of pirates from the east."
"What? Wako ······"
Hearing Tanma's report, not only Jia Cong was a little surprised, but Wangcai didn't expect that he had always thought it was from Goryeo.
