Chapter 438: The Japanese Sweep the Coast

The sun is slanting, shining on the sea outside Linzhou, a sparkling wave.

The sound of the roaring waves swept through my ears, and there were many short figures walking around, pushing barrels, lowering sails, and observing the sea breeze.

On the two-story ship, Shirt Kanesin was about seven feet tall, and he sat on the roof with his legs spread out and his hands on his knees, looking across the guardrail at the distant shoreline and four small boats sailing by.

"The people of Xia are stupid, they can't see the sound of my envoy."

He said a word, stood up in the figure that everyone needed to look up, pressed the guardrail with one hand, and a short and fat subordinate next to him complimented him without hesitation: "The navy of the Xia Kingdom of the Western Continent is powerful in the rivers, but on the sea, it is not as good as the Uesugi Guanling." ”

Kanetin grinned, he was known as the 'God of War', not only in land warfare, but also in naval warfare, not to mention that in the past three years, he trained his navy on the beach almost all year round, just to establish his status as a military god in front of other famous generals.

After the beginning of spring, he began to test the coastline of the Xia Kingdom, sending a large number of sea ships to plunder and swim in the five states to attract the attention of the other side, and he chose Linzhou, which is close to the sea in the eastern part of the Central Plains.

"Takeda Shingen will stay on the island well, and after this battle, I will be in charge of the navy!"

He's not joking, he's saying real words.

The archipelago is no bigger than the mainland, the living space is narrow, and the competition is naturally fierce, and when you come to this world, the daimyo of the Warring States period has returned.

Of course, he didn't dare to be careless.

On the other side, he still knows some of the civil and military affairs of the Xia Kingdom, and he told him through a former prime minister of the Wu State through Gu Chongwen, what are these civil and military affairs of the Xia Kingdom.

Especially knowing that there is the name Zhou Yu on the sea, he has to be careful, so after the beginning of spring, he used the strategy of hiding people's eyes and ears and attacking the west.

But at the moment, it seems that Zhou Yu at the end of the Han Dynasty on the opposite side is just a human being, not as magical as what is written in the book.

He touched his waist and said: Ji He's sword with a word, and in his eyes, the five boats heading to the coast have arrived!

……

The sun is slanting and the waves are crashing on the beach.

Seabirds soar and cry in the air, flying over the beach below, the sea water splashes, and figures jump off the boat, running in the waves, or ho, or laugh forward.

The wind blew across the coast, and there were also nearby sea people, who were driving the boat and saw the figure of the past coming ashore from a distance, and hurriedly rowed the boat to hide behind the nearby reef, waiting for the other party to quickly walk across the shore and go north.

The fisherman hurriedly rowed his oars and headed north, and when he reached the familiar shore, he jumped out of the boat and ran into the village, ignoring the waves.

As soon as he entered the fishing village, he shouted, "Haikou—"

The village is not big, but there are more than 50 households, nearly more than 100 people, and most of the villages in this world are related to their families.

When they heard this sentence of "Haikou", their faces all turned pale.

"Haikou? Aren't they at sea? Wu Laosi, can you see clearly? The respected old man in the village came on crutches, and his voice trembled a little.

In the past few years, the sea bandits have wreaked havoc on the sea, how can everyone beg for a living at sea.

And according to rumors, these pirates have almost no humanity at all, not only killing people and plundering goods, but if there is a woman on board, if they don't commit suicide at the first time, there will be endless destruction and torture behind.

At that time, there was a group of seafarers from Yuezhou, taking their wives and concubines to Feiyungang in Yanzhou in the north, and encountered the Japanese pirates halfway, the seafarers were hung on the mast and watched their wives and concubines being humiliated to death, and he was finally cut open belly, the internal organs were hollowed out, and a maid who was lucky enough to jump into the sea was salvaged from the sea by those pirates, anyway, when the sailors of Wuzhou rushed over, there was no living person on the ship.

When the whole village heard the fisherman's words, they were naturally afraid.

"You're really coming at us?"

"Isn't it, hurry, get out and hide first!" The fishermen had been specially trained by the county yamen, and if they found the Haikou ashore at the first time, they should immediately evacuate the locals to the county seat for shelter.

Seeing that everyone was still hesitating, the fisherman stomped his feet anxiously: "What are you still doing in a daze?!" They came in small boats, and the big ships were still anchored on the sea, and I saw them come ashore and come north. ”

Seeing that he didn't look like he was joking, the old man in the fishing village waved his cane and shouted: "Listen to him, go pack your things and go!" ”

"Uncle Tai, my daughter-in-law is about to give birth, ...... leave at this time"

"Yes, my family caught a lot of sea fish yesterday, and they are drying, how can I take them!"

"I don't believe they dare to come ashore!"

The villagers talked and cried bitterly, but some people listened to it, silently took their wives and children back to the house to pack their things, and went out of the village on the north path.

Some people left, but some wanted to rub it for a while, wondering what if Wu Laosan was wrong? Even if the other party is a pirate, what if it's not for them?

At this moment, at the entrance of Zhengcun to the west, a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old rushed in: "Haikou! A lot of pirates are coming to us! ”

The people around them were not calm for a moment, and they all looked at the young man who ran in.

"How many people? Do you have a weapon? Someone asked.

The young man nodded breathlessly, his eyes swept over the faces, and he swallowed his saliva: "Bring it, come over quickly, let's go quickly." ”

"Say something scary."

"What are you talking about, hurry up!" The village elder was so angry that he threw his cane at the families over there, and turned around and let his eldest fifty-year-old son carry him out.

However, before they had time to leave, more than 30 families had just packed their bags in their hearts, and before they reached the path out of the village in the north, nearly 100 figures poured in from the entrance of the main village facing west.

These more than 100 people also landed on the coastline for the first time in three years, and their emotions were quite excited, seeing more than 30 families dragging their families over there, the leader of the Japanese people first laughed hideously, pulled out a knife from his waist and pointed it over, and roared angrily in the words of Wajima.

"Collect the whole village, take away the grain, women, and property!"

More than 100 Japanese people formed a formation with a murderous aura and killed the panicked villagers on the opposite side.

The villagers who had escaped from the village had not gone far before they heard a terrible scream from the village behind them, followed by more wails and shouts one after another.

In a moment, a villager who had run into the mountains and forests looked back, and a fire broke out in the village, filling his eyes.

At this time, more than a dozen villagers who had no time to flee had been cut down to the ground, and the Japanese who rushed in with knives took the first step to occupy their retreat, holding weapons and threatening the remaining people to retreat, and let them put their meat, rice, and money on the ground.

Of the remaining 50 or so villagers, nearly half of them were women and children trembling with fear, and they had no intention of resisting in the face of the widows who were shorter than them.

Of course, there are also people who are in a hurry, holding the burden of all the belongings in their arms, and rush to the exit, and the next moment, a feathered arrow flies over with a whizz, directly nailing the person to the ground.

The rest of the people screamed in panic, and I don't know who shouted: "Run! ”

Everyone was suddenly in chaos, the Japanese people here didn't care so much at the moment, they rushed forward directly, and killed people when they saw them, the old man in the village pinched his crutches and watched his eldest son jump up by the other party, cut off his head, his eyes widened, he raised his crutches and rushed over to fight for his life, and was pierced through the chest by a short and thin widow who raised his hand and pierced the chest.

There is also a bloody man, rushed back to the house and took a hoe, sickle and various farm tools to fight with these Japanese people, luckily chopped one of them to death, and was shot in the back by an arrow, when he let out a miserable scream, a Japanese man next to him rushed up quickly, cut his head to the ground with a naginata knife in his hand, and kicked it out like a ball.

In the midst of the chaos, the young woman was surrounded by several short widows, pushed to the ground, dragged into a nearby house, and then screamed hysterically.

The ignorant child stood on the ground and cried, and then was picked up by a widow and thrown into a nearby well.

Soon, wolf smoke rose in the distance.

Nearly two hours later, the soldiers and horses of the county town who rushed to hear the news came to this fishing village and saw a piece of ruined walls and rubble, and black smoke rising from the houses that remained on the fire.

Beneath the collapsed walls, there are also white flowers' legs exposed; The old man's clothes were ripped off, and his emaciated body was pierced with blood; There are also figures hanging from trees in the village, lifeless, gently swaying with the breeze.

A group of officers and soldiers in Long County, Linzhou, looked at the tragic scene, and knelt on the ground one by one and cried heartbreakingly.

However, not only this place, but also the 1,200-mile coastline of Linzhou was constantly under fire, and coastal villages in the three counties and five counties were attacked, with more than 800 casualties.

As soon as the incident happened, the local Taishou arranged the people while organizing the military and civilians to strictly guard the sea, and the twists and turns were naturally presented to Yanjing like snowflakes.

When the recital came, it was mid-February, and Su Chen, who was dealing with government affairs, was hovering on the paper with the tip of the pen after listening to the recital.

Then, with a bang, the wide sleeves embroidered with scaly claws were opened—

The ink inkstone, pen holder, and books on the dragon case swept out, crackled and fell to the ground, Su Chen got up from the dragon chair, had to be angry, slapped the table, and the desk that was as heavy as iron exploded.

was so frightened that Wu Zixun didn't even dare to breathe, he had never seen His Majesty make such a big fire.

He hurriedly squatted on the ground to pick up the scattered things, and then heard Su Chen's voice whispering in a low voice.

"Send the order down, let Zhou Yu come back, I want to ask him what the hell is going on, why did the Japanese people make a false shot and kill Linzhou! Also, let Zheng Dugong come over to see me! ”
