Chapter 17: Farewell, Fire Dragon Yujiang

Within a quarter of an hour, the Japanese soldiers came to the city.

Lu Qi frowned and looked at the guards under the city, perhaps, they were even more lacking in military literacy than the soldiers defending the city.

"Rubbish!"

Master Wang was so angry that he slammed his fist against the wall, he took a deep breath, turned his head to the junior colonel and ordered: "Bird guns and artillery are fired in unison, covering the guards of the army!" ”

"Yes!"

The colonel raised the command flag high: "All departments listen to the order!" Aim at the Chinese army of the Japanese and take the big stone at the official road entrance as the line! ”

The crossbow machine rotated, and the arrows were mounted on the bow, and the muzzles of the black holes of the firebolts were moved towards the red-eyed pirates below.

The guards under the city were fighting, and the sound of shouting and killing and the intersection of swords and guns was endless, and everyone in the city began to sweat behind their palms.

"Put!"

The heralds everywhere shouted in unison: "Release! Put! ”

On the castle tower and the corner tower, forty or fifty fire guns from each battlement spat out tongues of fire at the same time, which were particularly dazzling in the dark night sky.

At the sound of the gun, more than a dozen Japanese in the middle of the Japanese army fell in response.

The front of the enemy is engaged in a struggle with our army, and if you fight there, most of them will hit their own people by mistake, and the middle of the enemy is still about 200 steps away from the city gate, and the hit rate at this distance is really touching.

But the guards also had a chance, and together they forced the vanguard to retreat, re-forming the army under the command of a centurion, giving the soldiers in the back rows of muskets time to reload their ammunition.

There was a shout from behind the Japanese army, and a man who looked like a leader approached with a knife.

Lu Qi's eyes narrowed, not bad! He was the one who led a small group of men and horses to ransack Lujia Village that day!

The man gave a few orders to his opponents, and then he saw that the pirates quickly adjusted their formation, did not retreat, but advanced, took up the corpses of their companions as shields, and continued to rush towards the side of the guards.

The guards and the castle tower hurriedly fired again.

After a round of firing, six or seven more pirates fell, and the hastily reloaded ammunition was exhausted, but the pirates were already in sight!

The centurion hurriedly reprimanded the soldiers in front of him to resist with swords and guns.

It's too slow!

With a hideous smile, a Japanese knife took the lead in approaching the front soldier, and then slashed down fiercely.

The big head rolled to the ground.

This round of confrontation is still a one-sided battle.

Lu Qi was sweating all over the city tower, and he couldn't wait to get on the horse and kill in person, when he suddenly heard a loud "click" sound beside him.

Turning his head, the cannon had been loaded, and Qi Ming pulled him to the side and ran to the side: "Cover your ears and open your mouth!" ”

"Boom !!"

At that moment, it was like a dragon's breath, and the entire tower was illuminated.

With the loud noise and vibration like thunder, a large amount of gunpowder smoke spread, and suddenly half of the city tower could not reach out five fingers.

Lu Qi was choked and coughed a few times, and when she looked up again, she saw a black man standing beside her: "Brother Lu is okay, is he?" ”

It turned out to be Qi Ming.

Looking at the others, they all looked like they were all looking like they were all looking dirty, and they all looked at each other and smiled.

But at this time, the Japanese could not laugh.

The large amount of lead bullets sprayed by this cannon can shoot as far as a mile, which can not only cover the entire area from the city gate to the Yujiang River, but even hit the ships docked by the river.

At this time, the Japanese on the shore suffered many casualties, and even the enemy ships on the shore were severely damaged.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the leader of the Japanese raised his hands and shouted, and the enemy began to retreat back to the ship and sail to the shore.

And it still takes time for the cannon to be reloaded, and the enemy can take advantage of this time to leave the firing range, but now that they have left the riverbank, Lu Qi has a chance.

Turning his head and glancing at the master of the king, Lu Qi bowed his hand and saluted: "Xiaosheng is going!" ”

Wang Zhushu replied: "When Wu Zhixian wakes up, the old man will ask for credit for the master!" ”

……

"Please give way!"

Chen Yin'er carried the deer lamp and hurriedly ran up to the city tower: "Husband! ”

Qi Ming was stunned for a moment, and looked back: "Godsister-in-law? How did you get here? Go home quickly, it's too dangerous! ”

"Uncle God, can the concubine be here?" Chen Yin'er looked inside and outside the narrow city tower, and her eyes fell on Qi Ming's face.

Master Wang turned around: "Oh? This lady is Master Lu? ”

Chen Yin'er saw him and blessed his body: "The old official is in front of him, Lu Chen's is polite." ”

"Your husband offers a plan in the day, and the old man seems that this plan is quite feasible, but it is ......"

"Just?"

"It's just too dangerous." The king sighed.

While the widows left the riverbank, two bamboo cages were quietly placed on the city wall over there, and Lu Qi landed lightly on the ground with the four actors.

Lu Qi wrapped his clothes tightly around his body, and the shark skin water he was wearing inside could preserve his body temperature to the maximum, and he hung a bamboo tube sealed up and down under his neck, and trotted quickly to the riverbank.

A small sampan was hidden on the riverbank, and it hurriedly untied the tether and rowed into the water.

"Let's go!"

The five people on the boat reached out at the same time and immersed the river lantern floating on the river.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

The shells of the river lanterns are mostly made of bamboo and wood paste paper, which are broken one after another when they are slightly pounded, and the lights in the tiles are extinguished, and the things below are suddenly scattered and floated on the water.

It was grease-soaked reeds and shrub foliage!

Five people had already been spotted by the pirates over there, and the nearest boat of pirates shouted and turned the bow of the ship towards this direction.

"Quick! Scatter into the water! ”

The five of them hurriedly jumped into the river. As more and more river lamps were mashed, a layer of glittering grease spread across the water, rippling slightly as the waves rippled slightly, enveloping several enemy ships in it.

The leader of the Japanese Bandits stared at this side, and suddenly thought of something, and suddenly shouted violently: "Selianmu! ”

After roaring, he stretched out his hand in the direction of Lu Qi and waved his hand, and the big boat that had turned around before gradually approached, and he could already see the excited expressions of the would-be robbers on board.

"He saw it!"

The movements in Lu Qi's hands still did not stop, even if he smashed one more lamp at this time, there was a little more possibility of winning.

Can't stop!

As the enemy ship got closer and closer, a Japanese man at the bow of the ship took aim with his bow and arrows in this direction.

The first to bear the brunt was Wu Sheng, who chased the river lantern into the depths of the river and became the first target of the Wako.

"Takeshi, dive into the water!" Lu Qi slapped the water and shouted urgently.

A cruel and bloodthirsty smile appeared on the face of the widow at this time, and the arrows were about to fly at the sound of the bowstring!

Wu Sheng was looking back, his eyes trembling when he saw this.

Just as he was about to make a move, a familiar white ayako flew in and shot down the arrow!

Seeing that there was no meritorious service, the wolf screamed angrily and drew his bow again.

Lu Qi gritted his teeth: "It's not good, it's ...... if it's so close."

"Buzz!"

The arrows have come out of the string!

Wu Sheng closed his eyes in despair, and until now he had not forgotten to extinguish the river lantern in his hand.

A delicate figure came at this time, Hua Dan actually wrapped white silk around the canopy of the widow, swinging over as lightly as a nine-day fairy, and opened her arms in front of Wu Sheng.

The arrow hit her in the heart impartially.

“!!!”

For a moment, the shouts of Lu Qi and the others seemed to be ignored, the cold of the river and the threat of the Japanese seemed to be far away, and all the grievances and grievances in the world disappeared at this moment, leaving only the two people who were close to each other.

"Official!"

Wu Sheng hugged her tightly, and the hot blood dispersed from her chest, burning Wu Sheng's whole body in severe pain.

"In the future, if you get rid of your nationality, you will be a good family, you have to marry a girl from a good family, and slowly live a ......"

"I don't want it! Didn't you say that you got rid of your citizenship and let us live together? I Zhen Xin will not marry you in this life! ”

Bai Aya was dyed with blood, and slowly floated into a silk wave in the river, and the official's eyes were affectionate, and finally he took a deep look at his sweetheart's face, and then let go of his hand.

The river covered her face.

At this time, the Japanese had already pressed the bow of the ship very close, and raised the Japanese sword with a cruel smile, and the blade reflected the light, and blood rushed to the face.

"Attention everyone, get ready to ignite!"

Lu Qi snorted violently, opened the sealed bamboo tube hanging around his neck at this time, and blew a few breaths, and the bamboo tube suddenly lit up with a red fire.

The rest of the people endured their grief and acted with Lu Qi.

Seeing the light of the fire in the bamboo tube, the leader of the Japanese robbers rushed to the bow of the boat and shouted hysterically to this side, but it was too late at this time!

Let this Yujiang tonight become a crematorium for the widows!

"Everyone, take care."

Four bamboo tubes are thrown into the water together.

In an instant, a little red light appeared, and then a huge flame instantly spread out in all directions!

How blazing!

How slight!

How brilliant!

Swept half of the river in an instant, like rolling out a golden red carpet! In an instant, a three-foot flame wave rose, like a furious fire dragon!

More than a dozen enemy ships were immediately engulfed in flames, and the fire burned themselves, and the Japanese on board screamed and ran around brandishing knives. But there is a sea of fire up and down, where can you go?

The ships let out an unbearable creaking and screaming, and suddenly they broke up violently, and more and more of the widows fell into the hot water of the river, which was stained with fire, and gradually lost their vitality.

Seeing this tragic situation, the only three remaining enemy ships that had not yet been affected, the Japanese were frightened at this time and did not dare to stop, and hurriedly urged the boats to swing and flee into the distance.

The leader's ship was also stained with grease, but fortunately it escaped quickly enough and was not ignited.

At this moment, the leader stood on the bow of the ship and hysterically scolded his men, and he was angry at such a great defeat.

Suddenly, a bright light flashed behind him, and a flaming tip of the knife peeked through his chest.
