Chapter Seventy-Five: Andrew's Mistake

It didn't take long for the red shrimp soldiers of the English to appear on the other side of the road, and the Japanese soldiers on the side of the county government scattered and fled, and the siege was solved without a fight, and all the people stationed in the county government shouted with joy, knowing that the battle was won after all. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

When those English soldiers arrived at the county office, they were warmest welcomed by all the Ming people.

"The pirates dared to attack the English army, and they were all defeated. Major Andrew, who took the lead, walked to the high place to inform everyone of the good news, and was warmly applauded and cheered.

At this time, the soldiers of the Ming Kingdom also partly went up and down, surrounding those English people to inquire about the battle situation and how the battle was fought, and Li Yingyuan was no exception.

Based on the descriptions of many English soldiers, Li Yingyuan knew that the number of troops used by the Japanese this time was still above his expectations.

The Japanese soldiers were divided into three routes, besieging the county government all the way, attacking the forts in the port all the way, and the largest one was from the sea, sending five or six hundred warships to besiege more than a dozen English warships.

Fortunately, the English had a good intelligence job in advance, got accurate information, and responded well.

The county government was pinned down by more than 200 Ming soldiers, and the English soldiers guarded the port batteries and armory, etc., of course, the main force was still arranged on the battleship.

The Japanese invaded the southeast coast for a long time, and their combat effectiveness was not weak, but they did not have a very good strategy in the face of the advanced firearms of the English, just looking at the more than 200 newly trained Ming soldiers who could resist more than 1,000 Japanese soldiers, we knew that the gap between the weapons and fighting methods of the two sides was very huge.

In short, the attack on the island looked menacing, but it did little to make the English retreat at very little cost.

As for the attack at sea, it was somewhat fruitful, and the fierce Japanese invaded desperately in small boats loaded with gunpowder, and then detonated the boats, inflicting many casualties on the English navy.

If it was at sea, the English would have suffered a lot of casualties, but unfortunately this was on the side of the harbor, and the number and power of the artillery that the English had placed on the commanding heights of the port in advance to assist the navy in attacking any small ships that came close, so that this tactic of the Japanese did not achieve the expected effect.

Finally, after a day and night of fighting, and the loss of more than 200 small boats, the pirates fled in a hurry, declaring the attack a failure.

When the naval battle ended, the outcome of the battle was doomed, and the Japanese on the island had no intention of continuing to fight, so they all looked for opportunities to escape one by one, avoiding the elimination of all the English, so that the English could easily occupy the city gate and raid in.

"In this battle, the new soldiers are brave in battle, and the British Empire will not hesitate to reward, whether it is an officer or a soldier, they will be rewarded satisfactorily, and all meritorious personnel will be duly promoted. Major Andrew made a promise, which made the cheers around him a few points higher.

"Now, the wreaks who attacked us are running everywhere, trying to find a chance to escape, and we can't allow these bastards to return safely to their lair.

I ordered all the English and Ming soldiers to take their weapons and go out to wipe out all these hateful pirates. Major Andrew gave his order, and the soldiers, who had long been carried away by the victory, were all excited, and promised to wipe out all the pirates.

However, at this time, no one thought about how wrong Major Andrew's order was, and what huge losses it would bring to the English army.

Li Yingyuan finally managed to squeeze to Major Andrew's side, only to see that at this time, he was surrounded by officers, and he was congratulating and praising him, which made Major Andrew's heart flutter for a while.

"The major used his troops like a god, and in this battle he wiped out thousands of Fusang Japanese in one fell swoop, and in the future, there was no armed force on the entire southeast coast that could compete with the British Empire, which is gratifying.

The major will be commended for this great achievement, and I would like to congratulate the major first. Li Yingyuan clenched his hands into fists and congratulated Major Andrew.

"Joy and joy, this is team work, everyone works together to win the battle. ”

Andrew's eyes were bloodshot at this time, and his expression was a little tired, but he seemed to be in a good mood: "Guo Huaiyi said that Li Langzhong was very brave, not only took the risk to rescue his injured companions, but also organized the apprentices of the medical department to treat the wounded afterwards, which made a great contribution.

If we continue to maintain such an enterprising attitude, we will not be stingy with rewards, and it is not clear that we may be promoted to the rank of second lieutenant in less than a year. ”

Guo Huaiyi would say good things about himself at this moment, but I don't know if this is a show of favor or a woo.

"That's also the major's proper arrangement, if the commander of General Guo is determined, otherwise Ying Yuan is already fortunate to be able to survive, how dare you say any credit. ”

Li Yingyuan grinned, seemed to be very moved by Major Andrew's praise, and said: "The major just gave the order to continue to pursue the remaining Japanese robbers, and our medical department sent apprentices to follow the army in order to rescue the wounded in time, what does the major think?"

"Of course it's good, just send someone to follow the army, Li Langzhong has the courage to do things and his spirit is commendable. "Major Andrew felt that he had won the battle at this time, and he had eliminated a large number of the main forces of the Japanese Invaders, and he would definitely fight more and more smoothly in the future, and he was very happy.

Listening to Li Yingyuan's initiative to ask for battle, he thought that the other party had heard that he had just casually drawn cakes, so he recognized the truth, and wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make more contributions, so he hurriedly nodded and agreed.

Li Yingyuan smiled lovely, and after asking Andrew to resign, he went to the medical department and organized the apprentices of the medical department to take bandages and hemostatic medicine, etc., and follow the army.

There are a few apprentices who feel that there is still a war outside and don't want to go out and take this risk, but seeing that Li Yingyuan is resolute, they don't dare to oppose it at the peak, of course, they scold Li Yingyuan in their hearts for not taking their own lives seriously for the sake of meritorious service.

Li Yingyuan hurriedly arranged it, and he was not idle, he also took a cloth and wrapped it with bandages, hemostatic medicine and surgical tools, etc., and then took advantage of the fact that the apprentices were busy taking things, and secretly ran to a room where sundries were placed.

This utility room has stretchers and surgical utensils, etc., and some necessary but not very commonly used items are stored, only Li Yingyuan and a few people in charge have the key, and there is usually a lot of dust, and few people come in.

Li Yingyuan went to the corner of the room and pushed out an inconspicuous wooden box, on which were littered with messy things such as straw mats and shovels, and a large lock.

When I opened the lock, there was a mess of things inside, and there was a small box at the bottom, and when I took it out and opened the lock, there were several cloth bags wrapped in oiled paper.

Li Yingyuan took out these cloth bags and counted the types and quantities of things inside, and did not let go until they were all matched with those in his memory.

Naturally, the Baicao Essence Yuan Pill that Li Yingyuan had secretly exchanged at the beginning and several other pills that were suspected to be Dao Dan, as well as the things that he had competed with Liu Sanduo at the auction, were all here, including the valuable Golden Wuling Ring.
