Chapter 1774: The slave family is still Shanshan
Uesugi Kanenobu was extremely cautious. In order to prevent Zhou Yu from discovering the location of his water village, he basically changed the nest once he grabbed it, so he frequently changed the location of his water village.
Although Zhou Yu did not know the specific location of the Japanese pirates' water stronghold, based on the location where the Japanese pirates came ashore to plunder, the location could basically be condensed into a small area, and there were only a few hiding places within this area. That’s all.
After Zhou Yu led the navy to search three small islands, he still found no trace of the Japanese pirates. He couldn't help but feel anxious secretly, but finally traces of the Japanese pirates were found on the fourth small island.
"Huh, finally there is nothing wrong."
Zhou Yu let out a long breath, then drew his sword and shouted: "Attack."
Following Zhou Yu's order, Lu Junyi, Lin Chong, Qin Ming and other generals led thousands of Qin naval forces and directly attacked the Japanese pirate water stronghold.
The main force of the Japanese pirates has all come ashore. There are only a few hundred troops left in the water stronghold, and there are no strong generals. How can they withstand thousands of Qin troops and the five tiger generals of Liangshan?
The one-sided massacre unfolded completely, and the Japanese pirates had little resistance.
From the beginning to the end, the battle was over in less than half an hour.
All the Japanese pirates and water bandits were strangled, and all the money and food that the Japanese pirates had worked so hard to plunder fell into the hands of the Qin army.
"I reported to General Zhou Yu that he searched all over the island but could not find the leader of the Japanese pirates." Lu Junyihui reported.
"No? How is this possible?"
Zhou Yu frowned slightly and said: "Qi Jiguang's Fei Ge Biography said that the Japanese pirate leader fled towards the coast. Where could he go if he didn't come to the Japanese pirate water village? If he stayed in the Central Plains, it would only be a matter of time before he was caught. .
Forget it, I immediately issued a sea arrest document, offering a reward of one thousand taels of gold, and wanted the Japanese pirate leader. "
"promise."
"General, although we did not capture the Japanese pirate leader, we found a Japanese girl in his room. She may have something to do with the Japanese pirate leader."
"Japanese girl?"
Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, then said: "Then bring it over and have a look."
"promise."
After a while, a graceful and beautiful woman wearing a kimono appeared in front of the Qin generals under the guidance of two guards.
So beautiful!
Most of the Qin generals were stunned, looking at the Japanese girl with fascination, obsessed with the woman's beauty.
Even Zhou Yu was slightly absent-minded, but he recovered in a flash. After all, he had seen many beauties. Although this Japanese girl was beautiful, she was not among the top twenty in his heart.
"I didn't expect that in the small island country of Japan, apart from Oda City and Izumo Awai, there are beauties like you." Zhou Yu couldn't help but admire.
When the Han Dynasty was born in Japan, the Japanese princess Oda Ichi and the first dancer Izumo Aguo became the dream lovers of many Han people.
Even Zhou Yu had to admit that these two women were indeed unparalleled in beauty, and the Japanese girl in front of him now was not inferior to those two women at all, so Zhou Yu could basically conclude that the identity of this woman was not simple.
"The general misunderstood. The Nu family are not Japanese, but Han."
The woman said with an aggrieved look, her voice was like a silver bell, clear and sweet, making people feel relaxed and happy.
After saying that, the woman bowed and said, "Shang Shanshan, the slave, has met all the generals."
"What? You're not a Japanese? Then why are you wearing Japanese clothes?"
Zhou Yu looked surprised. He even asked this Japanese girl for information about other Japanese pirates, but he did not expect that the other party actually said that he was Han.
Shang Shanshan said with a sad face: "The slave family is the daughter of the Shang family of Duchang. The Japanese pirates suddenly attacked. My father and elder brothers led their clan soldiers to the village and defended their homeland with the county magistrate. However, in the end they all died tragically at the hands of the Japanese pirates.
The Japanese pirate leader Kananobu Uesugi led the Japanese pirates to conquer Duchang County. Seeing the beauty of the slave family, he robbed the slave family. He didn't like Han clothes, so the slave family wore Japanese clothes. "
Hearing this, Zhou Yu suddenly showed a hint of guilt. Duchang County was a loophole in his defense arrangement, and it was also the only county that was breached by Uesugi Kanenobu.
After receiving the news that Duchang County was being attacked, Zhou Yu immediately led his troops to rescue, but he arrived a step too late. The Japanese pirates, who were informed in advance, gave up their robbery halfway and ran away, leaving only the devastated Duchang County.
This incident also became a thorn in Zhou Yu's heart. He felt that it was his mistake that caused this catastrophe to the people of Duchang County, and he secretly vowed to avenge the people in his confidence.
Therefore, upon hearing that Shang Shanshan was a survivor from Duchang County, Zhou Yu's eyes immediately softened when he looked at her.
Of course, Zhou Yu could not easily believe a woman of unknown origin because of her one-sided words, so he asked Qin Ming below: "General Qin, is there really a Shang family in Duchang County?"
Zhou Yu has not been in Qingbei for a long time and does not know much about the Qingbei family. However, Qin Ming has been working in Qingbei for many years and should have a certain understanding of the Qingbei family.
After hearing Zhou Yu's question, Qin Ming said decisively without thinking, "General Qi, there is indeed a Shang family in Duchang County, and the head of the Shang family has a good reputation, and he often helps the poor people around him.
It is said that the daughter of the head of the Shang family is still a beautiful woman, and countless people come to propose marriage, so the eldest daughter of the Shang family is somewhat famous in Qingbei.
But this time when the Japanese pirates attacked, the Shang family was also one of the families that suffered. The whole family was wiped out. It was really tragic. "
Hearing what Qin Ming said, Zhou Yu was mostly doubtful and said, "So, this girl is the eldest lady of the Shang family?"
"There shouldn't be anything wrong."
Qin Ming said, looking at Shang Shanshan with eyes full of pity.
Zhou Yu, however, looked disappointed. He thought he had captured a high-ranking Japanese pirate, but he did not expect that it was a miserable Han woman. Now he must have no information about the Japanese pirates.
"Wait a minute, you said you were kidnapped by Uesugi Kanenobu?"
Zhou Yu seemed to have suddenly thought of something, his eyes instantly became sharp, and he asked: "But as far as I know, Uesugi Kananobu doesn't like women, and he has robbed so many places, but not only has he not violated a single woman, , and also restrained the Japanese pirates under his command, and did not allow the Japanese pirates to insult women.
Miss Shang, please explain to me why Uesugi Kanenobu robbed you alone? "
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of everyone present looking at Shang Shanshan became a little subtle. They all knew that Uesugi Kanexin was not close to women, so why did he rob Shang Shanshan?
Hearing Zhou Yu's words, Shang Shanshan's delicate body trembled without saying a word, showing an even more sad and pitiful look, but she was secretly complaining in her heart, and said to herself: As expected of Zhou Yu, he is really difficult to deal with!
