Listening to Su Yong's report, Su Qi'an nodded slightly, this time the pirate and Japanese who occupied the land of the two counties had about 20,000 troops, and they lost three or four thousand people in the fierce battle with the Dongzhou soldiers before.

In this mobilization of troops, about 13,000 were gathered in Qingchong County alone, which is equivalent to only three or four thousand soldiers and horses in Zuohai County.

It stands to reason that such a force should concentrate on attacking Zuohai County, but Zuohai County, as its name suggests, is on the left side by the sea.

This sea is the largest sea along the coast of Dongzhou, called Donghai, directly around the city, if you want to take the county town of Zuohai, you have to cross this moat.

If you want to cross, you can only send a sailor, and the task of the sailor is always to monitor the pirates on Zhoushan Island.

Once dispatched, the pirates on Zhoushan Island did not have any worries, but sent more troops.

And even if you cross this moat, Zuohai County, the city wall is high and thick, and the hard battle of the Dongzhou soldiers a few days ago has not been won, which is also a hard stubble.

If the troops were divided to attack, they would fall into the same attrition as the Dongzhou soldiers, so Su Qi'an concentrated his men and horses this time and attacked the Qingchong county city with all his might.

As for Zuohai County, it is good to be in a situation of siege and surveillance.

In the days since Su Qi'an arrived in Qingchong County, as he expected, Sakai Jiro had already sent 5,000 men to join him.

This time, Su Qi'an wanted not only to take the Qingchong County City, but also to eliminate as many living forces in the city as possible.

This is also the reason why there are only three or four thousand people in the Ming Zhizuohai County City, but they insist on attacking the Qing Chong County City.

Only by annihilating their main army, Zuohai County, which has three or four thousand people, will not be taken in the near future.

Looking at the Qingchong County City with a murderous aura in front of him, Su Qi'an said softly, "Pass the order, everything will go according to the plan, and then it's up to you."

Su Yong and Tong Zhan nodded, and then left, and after a while, the Dongshan Army behind Su Qi'an began to move one after another, and the sound of horses roaring resounded.

Immediately afterwards, a group of soldiers in heavy armor, armed with long knives, under the cover of arrows in the sky, launched an attack on the county town of Qingchong.

The pirates in the city, feeling the strong momentum of the Dongshan Army outside the city, did not have the slightest fear, and were not to be outdone, they released arrows one after another and fought back.

Now they have replenished more than 5,000 people and horses in the city, reaching an astonishing 13,000 people, and there are enough food, grass and weapons, as far as they know, Su Qi'an brought only 20,000 men and horses.

Relying on their leisure and relying on the thick walls of Qingchong County, they may not be able to fight.

And their second leader, Sakai Jiro has already asked for help from the base camp, and as soon as the support of the base camp arrives, maybe they can fight a counterattack and annihilate these two famous armies in the Great Liang army in one fell swoop.

If you are someone else, you may not dare to think about it, but who are they? But the pirates who are not afraid of the sky and the earth, let alone annihilate these two powerful armies.

Even if they take Dongzhou, or even attack Daliang, there is nothing they dare not think of.

The sky was full of arrows, and the pirates and pirates in the city fought quite fiercely, without any fear, and many leading captains stood on the city wall and shouted loudly.

"Brothers, they have all withstood me, as long as you insist on withstanding the attacks of these garbage soldiers, and when our reinforcements arrive, it will be their temper at that time, brothers, give Lao Tzu a hard beat!"

Encouraged by the atmosphere of the leading team leader, the pirates in the city called an excited, fearless and crazy counterattack.

And the Dongshan army that was besieging the city was also stimulated by blood, and did not flinch at all, and all kinds of siege weapons were constantly beckoning.

The battle between the two sides came into contact for less than a quarter of an hour, and the battle suddenly became white-hot, and the battle was extremely fierce, and it was difficult to distinguish the winner in a short time.

When Su Qi'an launched a fierce attack on the county town of Qingchong, at this time, Zhoushan Island, the base camp of the pirates, was also asked for help by Jiro Sakai.

He did not ask for himself, but asked the base camp to send troops to support the Qingchong county town.

Even without this letter of request for help, the pirate pirates entrenched in the rear probably knew how strongly the Qingchong county town had been attacked. What kind of support is needed

。

However, at this time, there were obviously two different waves of voices on the island, one side in favor and the other side hesitating.

The reasons of the two sides are also clear, those who are in favor of support, know that if they do not send troops at this time, they really see Su Qi'an attacking fiercely, and it is estimated that they will not last a few days, and they will be taken.

If Qingchong County was recovered, it would not only be a county town that would be lost, but an important stronghold that they were finally able to set foot on the boundary of Dongzhou.

On the other side, Zuohai County will also fall into a precarious situation, so even if it sends troops to support, and when it repels Su Qi'an's Dongshan army, it can be regarded as an explanation to the Fusang royal family.

will not be punished by the Fusang royal family, and rescuing Qingchong County is saving himself.

And the hesitant side has a very clear attitude, if they send troops, they may be able to keep the important stronghold of Qingchong County, but the strength of their base camp on the island will be weakened.

And the Dongzhou Naval Division, which has been staring at them, will definitely be dispatched immediately, and when the time comes, what should be done if they fall into a two-front battle.

The views of both sides have their own truth, and there are many people gathered in an empty hole on the island.

Yamashita Yong, who was sitting in the first place, looked at the people who were suddenly divided into two factions and quarreled, and his face was gloomy and uncertain.

Seeing that the quarrel was getting more and more intense, Yamashita Yong shouted, "Okay, that's enough, shut up Ben Boss, and came to you to solve the problem, not to listen to your mouth!"

Yamashita Yong's reprimand still had an effect, and the quarrel in the cave soon quieted down.

At this time, Yamashita Yong's eyes swept away, and when he fell to the side below, a man with a strong body and a half-naked upper body said, "Liu San, you have also seen it, as the third master, you also express your own opinions."

was named by Yamashita Yong, Liu San put down the wine glass in his hand, got up, hugged his fists at everyone present, and then looked at Yamashita Yongdao.

"If you really want to ask my opinion, my opinion is to send troops, and they are clean and fast."

"There are several reasons, one of which is that the capture of Qingchong County is of great significance to us, it is the first frontline stronghold of our invasion of Dongzhou, if Qingchong County is lost, I think the Fusang royal family will definitely have some ideas when they get the news, not to mention anything else, at least we need assistance in the future, I'm afraid it won't be so happy."

"Second, if, as some brothers said, we delay the dispatch of troops, and play the posture of sitting and reaping fishermen, just to deal with the royal family, this kind of person is not kind, and we will lose our own people."

"Isn't it just watching the two of us kill each other, we also fight among ourselves, and we are slow to rescue, and it is not us who will benefit when the time comes, but this cool man supervising Su Qi'an."

"Third, if we are really slow to send troops, with the character of the second master, most of us will sue the royal family, and when the time comes, because of this matter, it will be rumored that our group is not compatible, I think it will definitely cause the royal family to be angry, and it will be difficult to protect the position of the big boss at that time."

Speaking of this, Liu San didn't continue, sat down again, and drank by himself.

Liu San's elaboration made some people who wanted to refute him have nothing to say for a while.

Those who were able to participate in this discussion were basically not stupid, and after listening to Liu San's words, they all realized the seriousness of not sending troops to slow down the dispatch of troops.

In the final analysis, they can have today, in addition to inseparable from their own development, mainly because of the support of the Fuso royal family, even Yamashita Yong is a Fuso nobleman, representing the royal family and the spokesperson of the royal family.

The quarrel just now is a kind of infighting, and it's okay to fight infighting, the main thing is that even if there is infighting, the occasion can be cleared.

Liu San's last sentence was only half of what he said, and there was still half a sentence, if he allowed Qingchong County to be taken this time, they would ignore it, and even think of sitting and reaping the benefits of the fisherman.

When the war is over, the Fuso royal family will definitely send people to directly replace all of them, and if they can do it, if they can't, they will find a suitable one.

It was this hidden half sentence that suddenly woke up Yamashita Yong.

He came to Zhoushan Island from Fusang and served as the big boss, and his main purpose was to explore the bottom of Daliang for the royal family behind.

That's what he thought at first, but he really sat down

In the position of the big boss, I feel the feeling of not being in control and monopolizing power, and sometimes it is easy to lose myself.

Now it seems that thanks to Liu San's words, he woke himself up, if he hesitated for a while just now, he would probably fall into a catastrophe.

Yamashita Yong, who came back to his senses, was afraid for a while, and looked at Liu San with a little gratitude.

At this time, Yamashita Yong definitely did the right thing to do was to take in this remnant pirate from Yuezhou.

It is indeed a wise move to promote him to be the third leader of the group, not only to check and balance the disobedient Sakai Jiro, but also to act as a military advisor at critical moments, pointing out deeper things and saving them in time.

Yamashita Yong took a deep breath, looked at the people present, and said loudly, "Pass on the order of the master, immediately send 10,000 troops to support Qingchong County, and at the same time, the island is on first-level alert, ready to fight the Dongzhou Naval Division at any time."

The people who were awakened hugged their fists and said yes, and then turned away.

On the other side, with the passage of time, the lively Qingchong County City, the fierce battle situation, gradually weakened.

Although the siege is still continuing, it is obviously a lot weaker than just now, from the beginning of the dare to fight, to the back gradually besieged, the attack in batches, this feels like fighting attrition.

The siege posture of the Dongshan army weakened, and Huang Er, who was defending the city, was excited, he knew that they had withstood the pressure, although the casualties this time were somewhat large, and in less than half an hour, there were two or three casualties.

And the Dongshan Army that was besieging the city was about the same as them, and this casualty figure made Huang Er feel palpitations.

The two sides actually fought a one-to-one casualty, "The combat power of the Dongshan Army is really worthy of its reputation." Huang Er sighed inwardly.

He leaned down and took advantage of the city wall to look at the Dongshan army attacking with a wheel battle, and his eyes were full of Sen Sen's greed.

Just now, he had already received news that the rear base camp had sent troops to support.

As long as he is holding on for a period of time, when the reinforcements from the base camp arrive, he will definitely immediately give an order for the whole army to go out of the city and launch a counterattack, to eat this powerful Dongshan army in one go.
