Huh!
Dohi Yuto's heart sank as he looked at the intensive attacks on the dock ahead.
With an attack of this magnitude, it is estimated that the second round of attacks is already doomed.
"General, it seems that Tanaka and the others fell into a Yun Chui Ren trick."
"It's okay." Doi Yongto's expression remained unchanged, and his tone was neither strong nor weak.
"Mo Canghai had known that we were coming, so he had made sufficient preparations on the shore in advance. The soldiers in front had just landed not long ago, and it is normal for the attack to be occasionally frustrated due to unknown conditions."
"Pass the order so that the generals on each ship don't have to worry too much. At the same time, notify Tanaka in front to continue the attack."
"Yes!" The messenger left in a hurry.

Pier, shore.
The sudden blow from above lasted for two quarters of an hour.
Falling rocks and fireballs smashed the shore almost from beginning to end.
When the evening glow appeared in the sky again, the rocks and fireballs in the sky finally stopped.
However, there were almost no people standing on the pier.
At this time, a temporary bunker consisting of sandbags and a dozen shields on top moved.
Tanaka crawled out from the corpses of the guards with his face covered in blood.
Although he was mentally prepared, looking around, he still felt like crying.
All he could see were the bloody wounded and corpses, and there was a painful and feeble moan in his ears.
"How are the casualties?" Tanaka asked.
The only remaining bodyguard hesitated for a moment and answered honestly.
"General, almost none of the three thousand people who came ashore survived. However, there were not many deaths. The vast majority of them were only seriously injured."
Dry!
Tanaka's face twisted, and he couldn't help but cursed: "You are so stupid, so shameless! Despicable!"
Just now, there was thick poisonous smoke floating in front, and dense rocks and fireballs were raining from the sky. The Japanese pirates who were the first to come ashore were in a mess, but they could not hide. It could be said that they had no resistance.
In this case, as long as you send people over to charge, you can harvest a lot of heads.
But the defenders in front just stayed in the trench.
It's not that they don't want to kill people, they just want to keep these huge numbers of wounded soldiers for themselves.
It can not only consume the limited food and medicine, but also damage the morale of the soldiers who landed behind.
It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.
However, no matter how angry Tanaka was, he had to report the battle situation.
After a while, Doi Yongto in the rear received the news.
He was silent for a while, looking up at the dock ahead.
"Military advisor, how much of the substance that can produce poisonous smoke do you think the defenders on the shore still have?"
"This," the military advisor looked embarrassed.
"General, in recent years, the spies sent by Yamato have gone deep into various places in Yunchui, but no one has ever reported that they have such poison in their hands. Therefore, my subordinates do not dare to make wild guesses."
At this point, seeing that Yongto Tobi's expression was not right, the military advisor quickly changed his words.
"However, we have often dealt with Xiao Zheng and the East China Sea Barrier in Baekje in recent years. The records of both sides have been victorious and defeated, but we have never seen them use such poison. It must have been invented recently."
"Therefore, I feel that Mo Canghai will not have too many poisons like this in his hands. After all, he is just a county lieutenant, not even a border soldier."
Dohi Yongto nodded, "It should be so."
On the shore, watchtower.
Deputy County Lieutenant Zhang Yang breathed a sigh of relief and also asked this question.
"The effect of the poisonous smoke looks good. God is really helping me. But I wonder if we have enough in reserve?"
If there were enough, he would be sure that with these ten thousand people, he could firmly hold the Dinghai Pier.
"Sir," the guard had already compiled the data, "based on the usage just now, the rubber we have reserved can only be used five more times at most."
Five times?
Zhang Yang frowned deeply, "That's not enough."
"Yes." The guard nodded in agreement.
He pointed to the shore ahead.
"There are still so many injured and dead bodies on the beach that have not been properly cleaned up. The Japanese pirates have begun to gather people and are ready to move. It seems that they will launch a third round of attack soon."
This is the rhythm of fighting them to death.
Although there are still stones and fireballs used in the trebuchet here, there are not many of them anymore.
If there were a few more attacks like the one just now, the trebuchet would soon become as rubber-like and misfire.
boom.
Zhang Yang patted the guardrail of the watchtower solemnly.
He made a prompt decision, "Immediately send people to nearby counties to purchase and collect rubber, whether it is broken shoes or broken pots, all of them are required. In addition, is the Gu family's caravan coming to Huayang County soon? Immediately send a letter to Gu Shengnan or Tieshu, asking them to They get it delivered as quickly as possible.”
"Yes!" The guard responded first, then murmured: "General, look at the Japanese pirates' formation, I don't know how many times they will attack today..."
Therefore, no matter where the Gu family's caravan is now, there is probably something far away that cannot be relieved by the nearby fire, and it is too late.
"No rush!" Zhang Yang said calmly, "Send an order to the surrounding villages to collect all dried or semi-wet rice straw and various stones in the farmland."
The little guard's eyes lit up, "I understand."
Huayang County is one of the top ten superior counties in Yunchui. A large area of rice is grown in the county.
Now that the autumn rice has been harvested, there are still a lot of rice straws cooling in the fields. If you want to collect them, you can collect a lot of them at any time.
Unfortunately, rice straw is not resistant to burning and is far less irritating to humans than rubber.
In addition, it has a huge disadvantage, that is, it is extremely easy to ignite.
In the event of being hit by a fireball or rocket from a Japanese pirate, it is not clear whether it will be smoked or not. Instead, it is possible that the defenders will be caught in the fire first.
But now that the Japanese pirates are approaching the city, they have no choice but to use it first.
shore.
Groups of Japanese pirate soldiers came ashore again under the urging of the vanguard. They huddled under their shields one by one, still far away from each other.
Everyone looked up at the sky from time to time, with panic on their faces.
The overwhelming attack scene by Yun Chui Ren just now really frightened them.
Tanaka has reported cleanly, at least the blood on his face has been cleaned.
Seeing this scene, his face turned cold.
"General," the remaining guard hurriedly ran over with his shield raised, "be careful of attacks from the sky."
"Don't worry." Tanaka laughed and pushed him away, and even climbed onto a huge stone bullet without hesitation, "His Majesty the Emperor is protecting me, and Yun Chui Dog's stone will never hit me."
After laughing, he quickly pulled out his sword.
"Brothers, ahead is the rich Huayang County, one of the top ten counties in Yunchui. It is full of food and beautiful women. As long as we kill it, it will all be ours. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
"clear!"
At first, the responses from the soldiers were sparse and weak.
But after his stomach growled, people from all directions soon gathered together and roared in unison.
For a moment, the groans of the wounded soldiers were suppressed.
Even when many soldiers looked up to the west, a kind of fire called desire was already ignited in their eyes.
"Very good." Tanaka nodded with satisfaction, "But there's Yun Chui in front of us, what should we do?"
"Kill it!"
"That's right." Tanaka continued to yell, "As the saying goes, the brave will win when we meet on a narrow road. Let's fight through it!"
Winter winter winter!
The drums of attack sounded again.
First latest.
