Chapter 494: Only Deception
「…… What's going on, why haven't we seen our brothers from the first team come and join us?"
In the northwest of Mingsha Island, the second team of Japanese invaders was preparing to break through the siege, while constantly observing the situation at sea, and seeing that their companions who were supposed to come to join the group earlier had not arrived for a long time, they couldn't help but have some doubts.
One of them was puzzled, "If it had gone well, they should have come a long time ago; If the progress is not smooth, then a message should also be sent with an arrow, how can there be no news? It's like she's completely lost."
A widow stood on the deck and looked around, when suddenly he saw something and looked happy: "Here we are! The first ship's ship is coming!"
When everyone heard this, they looked in the direction he was pointing, and sure enough, they saw a large number of ships approaching this side.
By this time, the sun had completely set, and the night was gradually enveloping, and the vision became blurred. The wakas squinted for a few moments, until the ship got closer and closer, and then began to realize that something was wrong.
"How do I look at these ships a little weird...... Uh-no!"
When he saw the approaching ship, the man's eyes widened in horror: "This is not our ship! This is the ship of officers and soldiers! Officers and soldiers are chasing after them!"
"What? Officers and soldiers are chasing after them!"
The wolks were shocked, and some of them said in disbelief, "How is that possible? The officers and soldiers have surrounded Mingsha Island, and now we have not begun to break through, the officers and soldiers guarding the northwest direction are still there, and the officers and soldiers in the southwest direction are being pinned down, where did these officers and soldiers come from? Could it be that the government has increased its troops?"
"Impossible!" Another widow subconsciously retorted, refusing to believe it, "How many years have the sailors of the imperial court been deserted, and this time it is only a few months of temporary training, and by the way, with the artillery of the Francophile, we can attack us in a big way, but that's all."
"With such a big family background, it is not easy to make up these people, where are there still soldiers to increase? If the government really has such a strong strength, there is no need to wait until today to attack us. This must be their bluff and tactics to confuse us!"
As he spoke, a fierce flash flashed in this person's eyes: "Anyway, no matter what, we have no turning back now, so we can only go recklessly. Since the first team of people is not coming, we don't need to wait for them, let's take care of ourselves first. Set sail and break through!"
Seeing that more than a dozen Japanese ships wanted to collide with the encirclement and forcibly break out, Gu Yunji and his party, who chased from the southwest to the northwest, were not surprised: "The group of Japanese robbers in the southwest looked huge before, but there were only many boats, but there were no people, and it was really just to divert our attention so that the others could have time."
"Want to just break through and escape? Dream! Kamui Cannon—"
The previous three Kamui cannons had used four guns each, and there were three left, but now twelve cannonballs were fired at once, and it was no surprise that the Japanese ships were smashed to pieces.
At this point, all seven guns were killed, and the Shenwei cannon played its greatest role and successfully exited. The officers and soldiers began to simply clean up the battlefield and check the casualties of the Japanese pirates.
However, on the ship accompanying the officers and soldiers, Eberg, who witnessed the power of the cannon, had a gloomy face.
He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth in anger: "...... Added up, one cannon has almost seven guns, and the effective firing distance is at least nearly three miles, and even targets four miles away can be hit......
"But just to show them around, the gunsmith was poached, not to mention, in just a month, he taught them to imitate a cannon that is even better than the Franc cannon! It seems that I underestimated you in the past, Huaxia...... Yes, that's great!"
Joseph, another minister of the royal family, accustomed to being dominated by Albert in everything, subconsciously asked his opinion: "Then what should we do now? Do you go directly to question Mei Feng, or simply write a letter to Her Majesty and ask Franco to break with Huaxia?"
"Did you get kicked in the head by a turkey?" Albert hated that iron could not become steel, and scolded, "Have you forgotten that we still have cooperation with the Huaxia government? Before you get the money for the firearms, you dare to ask because you are afraid that they will fulfill their agreement?"
"I also wrote a letter to Her Majesty the Queen, so that Franco could break with Huaxia...... The two countries are separated by a heavy ocean, why don't you say that you simply ask Your Majesty to send the Royal Navy to the east
Fang to set foot in Huaxia?! It's my misfortune to work with someone as stupid as you!"
Whether it was in the country or in the caravan, Alberg's status was higher than Joseph's, and he didn't dare to refute, so he could only ask stubbornly: "But the Chinese people have never taken our Franc machine in their eyes from the beginning to the end, and now they are still showing off their power to us like this, can we sit idly by?"
"And what do you want to do? Until we get the money for the firearms, we can only endure it." Alberg said angrily, "But what you said is right, Huaxia people are not a good partner, and when the matter is over, we have to find another way out as soon as possible."
……
Gu Yunji and the others didn't know much about Eberg's mental journey after seeing the Shenwei cannon, and their attention was currently focused on exterminating the Japanese Invaders.
The two groups of pirates were wiped out, but after a count, it was found that this was less than half of the existing pirates on Mingsha Island, which means that at least half of the pirates have not been found.
Su Qi said in a deep voice: "If Gao Shishu wants to break through, he must not only make this preparation. The first group of Japanese ships had few people, and they were just bluffing, and eighty percent of them were to attract our attention. The second group of Japanese ships has been reduced by half, but their number has increased greatly, and they are equipped with a large number of weapons, so they should be the main force to break through the siege."
"The ship was beaten by us, the weapons were also confiscated by us, and the two teams of Japanese in front and behind have been wiped out, so what has not been found is probably their only remaining main evacuation team, and it is also the largest team."
After sorting out the cause and effect, Gao Shishu's plan was almost guessed, and Su Qi calmly issued an order: "Gather all the existing warships, search around Mingsha Island, and once you find the Japanese ships, attack immediately, and leave no one behind!"
The first and second teams were not heard from, and without their cover, it would have been even more difficult for the third team to evacuate. However, they now have no other way to retreat, but to resist the layers of officers and soldiers, use the hull of the body of a weapon, and break through the siege head-on.
After a fierce battle, the original team of three or four thousand people was less than five hundred, and the ships were also damaged to varying degrees, and they might fall apart and sink at any time.
Although the price was heavy, it was barely a success in breaking through, and seeing that there were officers and soldiers behind him to catch up, hundreds of people did not dare to stay for a moment, and drove the boat quickly towards the northeast.
When I arrived at the predetermined location, I didn't see Dongying's receiving ship, and I only saw a vast sea, and there was nothing else.
At this moment, what do the pirates not understand? They finally escaped death, and they all survived to this place in one breath, but they didn't want to wait for them only deception.
The wokes collapsed on the spot, collapsed to the ground in despair, and their chests swelled with unwillingness and anger: "Gao Shishu, you villain, you lie to me! You don't have to die well!"
