38 The East China Sea curses
Hearing Yan Sidao's conclusion, Xie Yixiang thought about it and hurriedly thought about countermeasures. It is said that the terrain of this "Wangfu Stone" in front of him is quite steep, and there is only a very narrow path to climb, and at this time it has been occupied by the masters of the Japanese Invaders one by one, and they are hiding in the dark places of the reef with Japanese knives. Even if a thousand soldiers under the hill launched a fierce attack, they could only squeeze onto this path in turn and fight one-on-one with the Japanese who were hiding in the middle. Mo said that the soldiers were already timid towards the Japanese invaders, and even if they rushed to kill them with all their might regardless of their lives, in the end, they only piled up corpses at the intersection of the mountain, and gave their lives in vain.
As for Yan Sidao's speculation that the Japanese were waiting for the ships at sea to respond, the best way was undoubtedly to intercept them from the source, send a naval army to surround them from the sea, and form an encirclement with the 1,000 soldiers under the hill, until the more than 200 Japanese robbers on the hill ran out of food and water, and they were captured.
However, neither the armaments of Ningyi City nor the entire "Pingyu Coalition Army" led by Xie Yixiang in recent months have been involved in water battles and naval battles, and even the ships do not know where to dispatch. Yan Sidao's face was also solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Our soldiers are stationed along the coast of Jiangsu and Zhejiang all the year round, and water warfare is not a problem. But now, with the whole army retreating to Fujian, the coastal naval forces and warships have already been transferred to the south, even if they are recruited overnight, it will take ten days and a half months to get here, and the distant water cannot save the near fire. ”
Xie Yixiang couldn't help but sneer: "Dongying Wokou originally crossed the ocean to invade my Central Plains, and if you want to fight against it, you naturally have to fight at sea. As the commander-in-chief of the rebel army, you compare yourself with Zhuge Kongming all day long, and you blow the conch in the army, how come you don't even have these most fundamental preparations?"
Yan Sidao smiled bitterly: "Since the founding of this dynasty, water warfare has always been a sore spot for the soldiers of the Central Plains, and in the final analysis, they were still afraid of Li Jiusi's water army. If you really want to talk about water warfare, looking at the whole of China, only Jiang Wangcai of Dongting Lake in the past has inherited a little bit of Li Jiusi's fur, and now it no longer exists. If you fight with the Japanese at sea, you will undoubtedly hit the stone with an egg and bring humiliation on yourself. What's more, this time you and I are in the two armies, and there are no sailors on the imperial court, and for the sake of fairness, it is inconvenient for us to equip them, otherwise wouldn't it only increase the suspicion of the little Taoist of your family?"
Having said that, when the two of them encounter this situation, they can only be dead horses as live horse doctors. Yan Sidao immediately sent a sergeant stationed under the hill to send someone to rush to Gu Yuncheng, which had just been captured, overnight to see if he could requisition the ships in the port in the city and rush to reinforcements from the sea. Who knew that the thousand sergeants who pursued the Japanese Kou had been replaced by generals on the side of the imperial court from top to bottom, and Yan Sidao even looked for several partial generals, and the words were all bull's head and horse's mouth, and finally it was difficult to find a rebel captain, whose brain was quite clever, so he took Yan Sidao's token and left.
After this toss, more than half of the long night has passed, and it will be dawn in just over an hour. As the so-called night long dream, looking at this steep reef by the sea, it is so quiet at the moment that only the sound of waves crashing on the reef remains, Xie Yixiang doesn't know what will happen in the future, and can't help but say: "It's not a way to spend it like this, the known master of these Japanese defeated army is Niwa Kazuha, the leader of the 'Nakajo One Knife Stream', if it is a one-on-one fight, my 'Rongxiang Duel' may not lose to him." There is also a black-clothed samurai who fought with me that day, who claims to be a master of the 'art of swordsmanship', and seems to be called 'Yamamoto Kazukawa', I don't know if he is among them right now. If I take the lead and call all the soldiers to storm the mountain, I don't know what chance of victory?"
Thinking of this, Xie Yixiang pressed her waist and left in chaos, and simply turned her heart sideways, and she wanted to call all the sergeants to fight. Who knew that before she had time to move, Yan Sidao had already taken the lead to summon two partial generals, greeted Xie Yixiang together, re-revealed a confident look, and said with a smile: "Although Dongying is fierce and fierce, he is also a living person in the end, and he should know how to weigh the pros and cons." That being the case, it is better to salute first and then the soldiers, leave them a way to live, and reduce the spirit of declining soldiers. Then go with me, and see me shake this incorruptible tongue, and teach them to bow down in shame, and to abandon their weapons and surrender!"
Xie Yixiang knew that this guy was bragging again, if the Japanese invaders could really persuade them to surrender, how could they waste money and money, and increase the lives of countless soldiers? For today's plan, Yan Si said that this move was at most to delay some time, to see if Gu Yuncheng's side could send ships to reinforce as soon as possible, and by the way, to find out the details of these defeated Japanese troops. But because he wants to boost his morale, he will be ashamed.
At that moment, Xie Yixiang stepped forward with fifty or sixty sergeants led by two partial generals, and casually thought about approaching this "Wangfu Stone" by the sea. At this time, although most of the sergeants had rested by the bonfire, there were still more than 200 people left in front of the hill to guard closely to prevent the Japanese from desperately breaking through the siege. After the two partial generals explained the situation with the garrison sergeants, Yan Sidao strode forward, hid among the sergeants and took a deep breath of dry smoke, and raised his voice towards the dark hill: "Friends of Dongying on the mountain, the contemptible name 'escape' is the head of the three armies here, and this time I came on behalf of the Central Plains Imperial Court, originally for the peace talks between the two countries, so that you can save your lives and return to Dongying safely. Please also ask Mr. Niwa from Gu Yuncheng to answer!"
As soon as these words came out, the sergeants present and Xie Yixiang were all stunned, and the sergeant in charge of the translation still repeated it in Dongying dialect, but did not get a response from the Japanese on the mountain. Yan Sidao didn't care, and said in a loud voice: "Contemptible people have never spoken, what they say is true, you don't have to be suspicious. It must be known that although Dongying and Huaxia are close neighbors, both have the friendship of the same clan of the Han and Tang dynasties, but their thoughts and actions are very different. Now that you have invaded my territory, robbed me of my money and food, and killed my compatriots, in Dongying's view, this seems to be an unsolvable knot of resentment, a deep hatred of blood and a sea of blood that is not shared with the sky, yes or no, wrong, wrong, but in my Huaxia view, things are not like this. ”
After a pause, he continued: "My Central Plains Kyushu has been inherited for thousands of years, from the three emperors and five emperors down, it can be said that the land is vast and the people are numerous. The land you have committed, the wealth you have plundered, and the people you have killed are nothing but a leaf of a big tree and a millet in Taicang to Huaxia, and they are not at all significant! You must know that the land cut by this dynasty was committed by 10 times and others, the wealth coveted by officials was robbed by 100 times, and the people punished by the emperor were killed by 1000 times. In comparison, the actions of your friends are really nothing, at best they are just moss and itchy skin, not unforgivable. ”
Speaking of this, Yan Sidao gulped a few puffs of dry tobacco and said with a proud smile: "Just as the so-called grievances should be resolved rather than settled, when is the time to repay grievances? Let go of hatred means not fighting and not knowing each other; complaining with virtue can turn hostility into jade silk; this is the royal road of sages, the virtue of China, and the demeanor of a great country! Those who can 'kill' are not worth a damn; those who can 'forgive' are strong, yes and no? Therefore, if you friends are willing to put down their swords and go down the mountain to surrender, the three armies here will be counted out of their evil spirits. I have regained my face, not only will I not hurt your lives, but I will also escort you back to Dongying safely. In this regard, the contemptible people can swear with honor and never break their word, otherwise the heavens and the earth will be destroyed, and there will be no corpse!"
Although the sergeants present knew in their hearts that Yan Sidao was deceiving the enemy, they were all dumbfounded when they heard such shocking remarks. After saying a lot of words, there was still no sound on the hill ahead, and in the dark night, only the sound of waves crashing on the shore and drizzling rain moisturizing things was heard, and there was no life at all.
Yan Sidao was inevitably a little anxious in his heart, and couldn't help but swallow a few puffs of dry smoke, and shouted again: "Everyone, the land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang has long been cleared, and Gu Yuncheng is the last barrier for you, and now Gu Yuncheng has been broken, and the largest Japanese force in Sangu has also disappeared, so there are only more than 200 people left. You must know that at this moment, not only 200,000 troops refuse to accept here, but also 200 warships and 100,000 elite soldiers blockade the entire East China Sea...... Hahaha......"
Speaking of this, he changed his words and said sharply: "It's not a secret, now that our side has the chance to win, the reason why we are willing to wait for a way to live is because we don't want any more sergeants to be injured." Anyway, the territory of Jiangsu and Zhejiang has been successfully quelled, and we are enough to return to the imperial court to receive a reward, so why should we increase the casualties of our brothers?
When the translator in the army finished repeating it in Dongying, there was still silence on the hill, and there was no answer. The sergeants at the foot of the mountain couldn't help but be a little restless, and even Xie Yixiang asked in a low voice: "Could it be that the Japanese have already fled, and there is no one on this mountain?" Or is it that you have a certain certainty, and you will definitely be able to wait for reinforcements?"
This time, without waiting for the interpreter on the side to speak, he heard the sound of breaking the air suddenly sounded, and it flew rapidly from the hill, directly taking the words and thoughts of the crowd. Xie Yixiang reacted very quickly, and the chaos around his waist was immediately unsheathed, and the crimson light passed through, but when he heard the sound of gold and iron cracking in the dark night, several hidden weapons had been split to the ground;
Seeing the sneak attack, the sergeants present immediately shouted angrily, and they all opened their bows and arrows, shooting a rain of arrows towards the hill. Yan Sidao was stunned for a while, couldn't help but laugh dumbly, shook his head and sighed: "Fuck, it's in vain that I have so many lips and tongues, it turns out that the widows are all a bunch of cheap bones, I can't understand good words, but I like to be scolded!"
After that, he took a deep breath and said loudly to the hill again: "I have a word, the Dongying people on the mountain have listened carefully to me - you are all dogs and pigs!"
As soon as these words came out, a burst of angry scolding suddenly sounded on the mountain, most of them were muttering Dongying dialect, and one of them read in a strange Chinese dialect: "Jade can be broken but not changed to white, bamboo can be burned but not ruined, and soldiers can be killed but not humiliated!"
As these words sounded, a black shadow drifted from far and near, from the hill to the bottom, and the sword in his hand waved, swinging all the arrows in the sky, and it seemed that the road was directly from the words and thoughts of the crowd. Xie Yixiang's heart sank, although he couldn't see the appearance of this widow clearly in the night, but when he saw the person in the black robe and bald head, and the sword in his hand was as fast as the wind, it was clearly the "Kendo Little Art of War" master Yamamoto Ichikawa who had fought that day.
