Chapter 167: Counting is Counting

Jiang Ning was about to turn over and get on the horse, but suddenly glanced at the surrounding soldiers, stopped his movements, and shouted at the generals:

"You all know the importance of the next battle!

But now, it's about to go to the battlefield, look at the soldiers under your command, their morale is low, their heads are down, where is there any appearance of soldiers!

Those who don't know think you're going to the funeral!

The same people, the northern frontier army can beat the Tatars to the scream, this is an enemy a hundred times more ferocious and tyrannical than the Japanese invaders!

Sichuan soldiers and Yunnan soldiers have poor equipment, and there are many soldiers, but they are not ambiguous at all when they fight, and they suppressed the Miao Rebellion in the past, which one is not a top hero!

And what about you, are you living in a rich place in the south of the Yangtze River, your bones are soft, and you can fight like this!

If you retreat again and again, it is difficult to retreat today!

Remember, gentlemen, there are no more than three or four thousand people in front, and we have more than twenty thousand. Five to one, even if you bite, you have to bite Lao Tzu to death!

Renhe's slaughtered fathers and villagers looked at us, the soldiers and civilians of Hangzhou City looked at us, and all the people in Jiangnan looked at us!

If this battle can still be lost, I, Jiang Ning, should kill myself to thank the world.

Because it's really shameless!

As for you, if you don't have the heart to die, you will live in boundless scolding for the rest of your life! ”

Jiang Ning stopped talking, looked at the generals whose faces were full of unwillingness and humiliation, suddenly pulled out the sword of the Son of Heaven, and shouted:

"In this battle, only victory, not defeat!

If one of the soldiers is withdrawn, his captain dies. If one of them is retired, his chief shall die.

And if a thousand-person team retreats, not only will the thousand generals die, but the generals will also die!

I heard it clearly to Lao Tzu, and ordered the whole army! ”

The generals looked awe-inspired, and hurriedly saluted and said yes.

"What's the matter, my mother has abused you? Didn't you eat?!

Just like you, Lao Tzu handed over the official position to a farmer, and he has more spirit and courage than you!

Why? Because he knew that his relatives were being wantonly bullied and slaughtered by the Japanese Invaders, he couldn't wait to fight for his life with the Japanese Invaders!

And you would rather be a turtle with a shrunken head, and let the Japanese kill their elders, parents, wives and children! ”

Jiang Ning no longer had a trace of image at this time, and directly spat and scolded.

"The last general will obey the order!

Undefeated Japanese Bandits, vow not to give up! ”

The generals really couldn't bear it, and they were completely aroused, their eyes were red, and they shouted in unison.

Jiang Ning nodded.

It will be the courage of the soldiers, and the heart of the army can be used!

The army continued to march in a hurry.

After a while, they came to the path set up by the Japanese in Jiangning.

At this time, the moon stars are sparse and the cool breeze is blowing.

The reeds were rustled by the blowing, and a faint black shadow could be seen.

Suddenly, there was a sudden sound of pulling the bowstring, and then a rain of arrows came from the sky.

But the Ming army had already prepared, and the left and right flanks were full of sword and shield hands.

The moment they noticed that the bowstring was being pulled, they quickly stopped their march and turned to raise their shields.

Even though the arrows rained down, the Ming army still had very few casualties.

When the rain of arrows stopped, the would-be robbers came out of the reeds with a strange scream.

The Ming army was extremely calm about this and quickly changed its formation.

The sword and shield hands spread out to the left and right, and in the middle of the moment, rows of pikemen were killed, and they stabbed out.

The Japanese were caught off guard, killing and wounding hundreds of people.

Those who rushed out first were wiped out.

Immediately after, after the pikemen, the Ming army drew their bows and arrows, and one after another ignited rockets shot into the reeds at a rapid pace.

Instantaneous fire.

In a sea of fire, the Japanese who did not have time to rush out were burned to the whole body by the flames, fluttering on the ground and screaming.

Countless people were burned.

The morale of the soldiers of the Ming army was greatly boosted.

Because their commander was like a god, he not only took the lead in anticipating the plan of the Japanese Invaders, but also planned to defeat the Japanese Invaders so easily.

Looking at the appearance in front of him, I am afraid that there are not thousands of enemies, but in just a moment, they were killed and injured.

A thought suddenly arose in the hearts of all the soldiers.

No matter how vicious the Wako is, that's it!

Jiang Ning noticed the change in the army's heart and nodded with satisfaction.

Only when the fear of war is truly eliminated and the soldiers have the will to win in their hearts can they truly be reborn and grow into an elite division.

And with them taking this step first, they will slowly infiltrate and infect other armies and completely wipe out the Japanese bandits!

Just when Jiang Ning's mind was turning around, the remnants of the Japanese in the reeds came out.

It's just that the Ming army at this moment is no longer a little afraid, but is extremely heroic to meet it.

"Kill the Woko!"

Several thousand commanders shouted in unison, and led their soldiers to fight with the Japanese invaders.

After only three or two efforts, he gained the upper hand and began to beat the water dogs.

on the other side of the hillside.

Seeing that his side had lost nearly half, the ambushed leader of the Japanese invaders could no longer hold back the killing intent in his heart, and led his troops to rush down the hillside.

But they didn't expect that what was waiting for them was the elite of 3,000 battles for the rest of their lives.

These 3,000 people were all carefully selected soldiers in the inner factory and even the Tianxiong Army before Jiangning went south, as their own pro-army.

And now, it has become the sharpest knife to defeat the Japanese invaders.

I saw 3,000 soldiers standing in place without fear and calmly, watching the Japanese who rushed down.

When they were only more than fifty paces away, they were able to change their formation, took a few steps forward, and immediately raised the long knife in their hands and swung and slashed.

The Wako's heart was suddenly frightened, but it was too late.

In an instant, thousands of pirates were slaughtered.

Meanwhile.

On the road behind the Ming army, a group of more than 1,000 Japanese robbers suddenly appeared, and they were quickly chasing them.

This was the last ambush arranged by Kato Akira, in order to intercept the Ming army, in an attempt to completely encircle and annihilate it, and by the way, snatch the baggage ordnance carried by the rear army.

"Enemy attack!"

The baggage team of the rear army, which was far behind, saw the sudden slaughter of the Japanese robbers, and they were in a great confusion, and they did not care about these many carriages and horses, and fled forward one after another.

Seeing this, the Japanese laughed, only when the Ming army was as soft as ever.

"With these cannons, the leader will be able to lead us to dominate the seas!"

Matsuda Fengyi, who led this Japanese army, stroked the artillery covered with oilcloth with a gleam in his eyes, as if he was caressing the face of a well-behaved and docile Japanese girl.

He prefers these cold firearms to women.

Suddenly, he frowned and quickly lifted the tarpaulin.

"Yaga! These are not artillery! ”“

Matsuda Fengyi looked at the siege vehicles in front of him, and was very angry.

At this moment, the gunpowder fuse hidden in the rush car had burned out.

The next moment, with a loud bang that soared into the sky, a series of explosions began to be staged.

The pirates who were anxious to carry their baggage were not spared, and all of them became scum.

A gust of wind blew, and there was no trace of it.

Only some of the outermost pirates survived.

"Brothers, kill all these bitches!"

A burst of shouts came, and Zhang Yunrang led his soldiers and horses to kill a horse pistol, and rushed into the remnants of the Japanese army like a wolf.

Obviously, all this is the result of Jiang Ning's early arrangement of deployment.

"Haha, happy, happy!"

Zhang Yunrang's face was extremely excited, brandishing a big knife to slash left and right, and one by one the widows were cut to the ground by him, and there was no sound.

And the soldiers under his command have already thrown away the fear in their hearts, and the more they fight, the more courageous they become, and they kill heartily.

Hangzhou City.

More than 100 horsemen suddenly appeared under the city gates.

"Who?"

The city garrison shouted.

A man dressed as a Ming army general and covered in blood shouted in a pure Hangzhou accent:

"Brothers in the city, your lord took us to support Renhe, we were ambushed on the way, and there were heavy casualties, quickly open the city gate and let us in, so that Lord Yuming can send reinforcements, otherwise it will be too late."

The garrison was shocked and hurriedly said, "Wait, I'll open the city gate." ”

When the man heard this, he instantly showed a cruel smile.

And Kato Ming, who was ambushed in the woods outside the city, saw the firelight and sent the message, and wanted to look up to the sky and laugh.

His real goal has always been Hangzhou, so he will go to great lengths to devise such a plan.

As long as Hangzhou is broken, a windfall is just around the corner!

It is an innumerable gold and silver treasure, endless grains, meat and vegetables, and endless enjoyment of the Ming lady.

With a heavy voice, the huge city gate slowly opened.

Drawbridges were also lowered over the moat.

Akira Kato roared, pulled out his sword, and rushed out with thousands of men and horses under his command.

But just as he was about to lead his troops to the city, a burst of artillery fire burst out from the hole in the city gate.

In an instant, the vanguard suffered numerous casualties.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of Ming troops came out of the city gate and lined up in formation.

The first general was Xu Zhiyuan, the commander of Zhejiang.

Then the drawbridge was raised again, and the gates were closed.

"Humph! Just a small skill of carving insects, and dare to offend my Daming City, I really don't know whether to live or die! ”

Previously, after Jiang Ning realized that something was wrong, he sent his elite fans to take the path back to Hangzhou, and climbed the city wall with a hook to report the letter.

Didn't alarm anyone.

Seeing this, Kato didn't know that his plan had been discovered.

But at this moment, there is only one way to fight.

In his mind, although there were nearly 10,000 Ming troops in front of him, the head-on decisive battle was still not the opponent of the thousands of Japanese soldiers under his command.

As long as they are eliminated, the morale of the city will be greatly lost, and it will still be easy to break through.
