Chapter 117: Attack

The world is unpredictable, and before the final result, no one knows who will be calculated in the end!

At first, Mader thought he was being calculated. Then, knowing the strength of the pirates, and finding out the pirates' paths, he thought about counter-calculating the group of pirates. However, in the end, he never imagined that things would be far more complicated than he imagined, and he felt that it was he who was finally calculated.

……

After consulting with Shahrhuda, Shahrhuda sent his elite soldiers to follow his men to investigate the situation, and soon the enemy situation was determined, after which the two began to deploy.

"Sha Dutong, I want to ask you to be the chief general of this crackdown on thieves, I don't know what you think?" It didn't take much effort to set things up, and Mader talked to Shahrhuda about the matter of command.

"Isn't that good? ...... "I didn't expect Ma De to say this, Sha Erhuda was happy at first, and then he used his brain, because he was afraid that this was Ma De's kind words, so he didn't agree immediately.

"Hehe, what's so bad? Shadutong is now in command of Jilin soldiers and horses, and the war should be dominated by you! Mader laughed.

"Alas, Lord Ma, you are much higher than the last general in terms of official position and title, how dare the last general rob you?" Shar Huda pushed back. Although he agrees with Ma De's words, he also knows his identity, the first-class male and deputy commanders, and they are all pressed by Ma De. Moreover, he doesn't have any interpersonal relationships, otherwise, everyone wouldn't have left Jilin, and he would still stay here as a deputy commander. Although nominally he is in command of Jilin's entire army and horses, it is almost like a general. Such an embarrassing identity is really not suitable to compete with Ma De for any military merits. It's not as simple as a house.

"What knighthood? Shadutong, to tell you the truth, although I have the name of Ningguta Dutong on my head, to be honest, I am a layman when it comes to fighting! It's okay to transport grain. This time the pirates attacked Jilin, although they did not have many troops, and their combat power was probably not very good, but after all, it was also a big deal! I don't do this because I'm afraid of being responsible! Mader laughed.

"Haha, since you have said so, Master Ma, it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate! …… Thank you! Hearing Ma Dedu say this, Sha Erhuda is not good to shirk anymore. Seriously, he himself really wants this military feat! You must know that military merit is the dream of many generals in the Qing court. Moreover, there is another reason for Sharhuda to take this credit. His ancestor was also a high-ranking lord, but, according to the rules of the Qing court, the succession of each generation of titles will be downgraded by one level. However, if this continues, there is still nothing outstanding, and his next generation will still fall out of the series of males, candidates, uncles, sons, and men, which is equivalent to leaving the noble profession from now on. This is not a good thing for him, and now that Ma De is willing to give up this main merit that will definitely be greatly rewarded by the imperial court, how can he not follow? However, although Ma De pushed away the main credit, he also won his favor.

……

With the issue of command out of their way, Mader and Sharhuda turned the conversation to the upcoming battle. Because of their contempt for pirates, and their trust in the Manchurian cavalry, who had just experienced a battle against Geldan's Hundred Battles, Ma De and Shahrhuda did not make the plan too complicated, and the whole plan was very simple, even summed up in two words...... Encirclement and annihilation!

"Pirates are not good at field warfare. Moreover, my 800 soldiers, plus the sturdy soldiers and horses that you can muster in Ningguta, also have more than 1,000 people, and their strength is not much different from that of pirates. We are all cavalry, and we still have a calculating or unintentional, with such an advantage, if we want to let this group of pirates escape, then I Sha'er Huda will not have the face to see people! Before the war, Sha Erhuda said so confidently.

……

Shaerhuda chose a place called Fusongtun for the battlefield.

The pirates have always been day and night. During the day, they hide in the mountains and forests, and at night, they go out of the mountains and run along the flats. Fusongtun is a necessary way on their way forward. Tunzi was between the cracks of the two mountain ranges, and the ground was flat for several miles, which was very conducive to the movement of the cavalry, and if the pirates wanted to pass through here, it must be at night, which made it even more convenient for the cavalry to raid them. Although there were dozens of families living in Fusongtun, they all moved to live near Ningguta half a year ago. Therefore, without ordinary people, Ma De and his gang did not have many scruples when they started fighting. …… Although dozens of households do not necessarily affect anything.

……

Think you're ready for everything!

Mader and Shahrhuda waited for the pirates, who were deaf and blind in Manchuria, to play.

……

Night!

The moon in the sky also happens to be round and bright!

Under the expectant gaze of Ma De, Sha Erhuda and others, a team of centaurs finally showed their bodies in the moonlight. This team had neither formation nor discipline, and with bursts of noise, they marched towards Fusongtun, which had already been empty. …… The reason why they dare to be so arrogant is actually the reason why this group of pirates has sent people to investigate in advance.

There were only a few hundred people living in dozens of households, and the pirates were too numerous to squeeze hard, and finally more than half of the people were still "exposed" outside the tun.

"Why did they stop?" Hiding in the forest in the distance, Mader took the binoculars and looked left and right through the moonlight, and found that the pirates had stopped, and asked Sharhuda beside him in confusion. According to the intelligence of the past few days, this group of pirates has always taken advantage of the time to rush.

"I guess it's burying the pot to make rice! During the day they do not dare to raise the fire, and at night they do not have so many scruples! Shahrhuda said. In response to his words, a wisp of cooking smoke came out of Fusongtun, if it weren't for the good moonlight tonight, it would not be easy to find.

"Do you want to take advantage of this time?" Ma De felt that this was a good opportunity at this time, and the blood on his body was a little boiling...... Although he himself is definitely not going to go out.

"There's no hurry. People are lazy when they finish eating, and they don't want to move at all...... When they finish eating, let's fight again, and the Zhun Bao hit it successfully! Shahrhuda said.

"Hmm!" Mader nodded, convinced. He didn't want to move much after he finished eating.

……

Asano Yoshida occupies a wooden house in Fumatsutsun alone, sitting on a tatami mat laid out under his hands, his eyes closed, as if he were asleep.

"What are you thinking, sir?" Asano's side is his closest subordinate, the samurai chief who was given the name Kusunoki Shinsei.

"Well, I think of my ancestor Asano Nagamasa again......" Slowly opening his eyes, Asano Yoshida said slowly.

"So you remembered Lord Asano again!"

"Yes, as a strong man who unified Japan, one of the five major commissioners (administrators) under His Excellency Toyotomi Hideyoshi! That ancestor of mine is the eternal pride of our Asano family! Asano Yoshida said.

"Hey! His Excellency Asano truly deserves to be remembered forever! Kusunoki replied.

"Yes! Miss! …… However, there are very few people in Japan today who think like Kusunoki-kun! Without the excitement of war, they only know how to enjoy, but they don't know how to inherit the great will and ideals of our ancestors! Asano said with a stern expression.

"Thank you, sir, for your appreciation! It's not enough! Kusunoki said.

"Very good, modesty is a virtue, Kusunoki-kun!" After patting Kusunoki Manari's shoulder and making the other party's waist bend more in front of him, Asano Yoshida said slowly: "However, excessive modesty is hypocrisy, we don't need this kind of thing......"

"Hey, I'm really taught!" Kusunoki really kowtowed.

"Nanmu-kun, do you remember why I gave you a surname, and I also gave you a name?" Asano Yoshida asked again.

"Remember! My lord, you want me to become a real samurai like my predecessor, Kusunoki Masari! ”

"Good, you remember that!" Asano Yoshida took a breath and said, "Kusunoki Masanari is the founder of 'Bushido', I hope you will not forget this and truly do your best for our cause!" ”

"Hey! Seicheng will definitely live up to the expectations of adults! Nanmu Zhencheng kowtowed again and said.

"Hmmm! Speaking of bushido, I thought of our first person in the Warring States, His Excellency Toyotomi Hideyoshi Sekihaku (almost the prime minister)! Asano said again.

"As a generation of heroes who inherited the power of the Sixth Heavenly Demon King Oda Nobunaga, it took only eight years to wipe out all forces and transform Bushido...... His Excellency Toyotomi Hideyoshi will indeed always be the number one powerhouse in the history of Great Japan! Kusunoki Shinari came up and said.

"No, the unification of Japan is not the most admirable thing about His Excellency Toyotomi Hideyoshi! What I admire most about Your Excellency is his ambition......" Asano exclaimed.

"Please make it clear!"

"You know what? Kusunoki-kun ...... Asano was a little excited, "When His Excellency Toyotomi Hideyoshi was just an ordinary samurai, he said to Oda Nobunaga: 'If you want to reward your ministers, you are willing to take Korea as an invitation. The minister is to use the soldiers of North Korea to enter the Ming Dynasty, and the Shu Ji is based on the monarch's Lingwei, sweeping the Ming Kingdom, and combining the three kingdoms into one, which is the minister's Su Zhi. ’…… What a great ambition is that? It is said that in your bedroom, there is always a map of the Ming Kingdom for your Excellency to study the use of troops against China. …… And after the unification of Japan, Your Excellency resolutely gave up his title and led 200,000 soldiers across the sea to attack Korea! And said to the Korean envoys: 'The long drive went straight into the Ming Kingdom, the customs of the Yi Wu Dynasty were in more than 400 states, and the Shi Emperor was politicalized in hundreds of millions of years. ’…… What a bold language is this? 'Dingdu Beijing', 'Hangzhou'! …… Although Your Excellency's plan ultimately failed, with our small island country, we have been fighting Korea and Ming for seven years, causing the two countries to 'lose hundreds of thousands of soldiers and millions of salaries', and your greatness is beyond doubt! Moreover, it is precisely because of Your Excellency's war that the elite of the Ming Dynasty has been lost and the national strength has declined! …… It's a pity that all this was picked up cheaply by the Jurchens! ”

"I wish to help you inherit the legacy of His Excellency Toyotomi Hideyoshi!" Nanmu Zhencheng said in a loud voice.

"Excellent! Nanmu-kun, you really deserve to be my confidant! ”

"But, my lord, you come from a famous family, your talent is unmatched, and you have such great ambitions, why don't you do it yourself? I still have to ...... with those people," Kusunoki Shinsei looked through the door of the house that had no door panels, and looked at a group of tall black-clad people in the other rooms in the distance.

"Kusunoki-kun! What is the most important thing about bushido? His Excellency Toyotomi Hideyoshi was just a commoner in Owari at the beginning, and what did he rely on to succeed? ”

“…… Endure! ”

"Okay, haha......" Asano laughed as he looked up to the sky. However, before he could laugh twice, an earth-shattering shout of killing suddenly sounded from all sides!

"Kill! ……”
