Several cannonballs exploded on the burned warship. The ship was swaying on the sea like duckweed in the wind, and was about to be swallowed by the sea at any time. The warship in the distance also continued to fire. This arduous battle The fighting continued into the evening.
The sea was filled with flames and smoke, illuminating half of the sky. Under the continuous bombardment of the Ming army, a giant centipede finally stopped running and became paralyzed on the sea.
The other ship actually staggered further and further away, looking for the Frenchman who came to meet Andrade in the distance.
The warships of the Ming army were already riddled with holes, and if they continued to fight, they would all die together. Mr. Wang thought about it again and again, and decided to beat the drums and call for gold to withdraw his troops.
The Franji people were beaten to nothing but a broken ship that was smoking, and they fled in a hurry to Manlajia Island. The Ming army intercepted a lot of weapons and equipment on the giant centipedes. This first battle with the Western powers continued. It took more than a month to end, and ended with the Ming army's complete victory.
But the Ming army was not much better. The armors of the surviving soldiers were soaked in blood. It was very normal for them to be missing arms and legs. Even a master like Zhen Dexiu had several words on his face. color.
The ship broke through the fog and returned to Guangzhou Port triumphantly. Mr. Wang stood on the bow of the ship and was filled with emotion and recited:
The rolling carriages and horses came out of the east of the city, and they were delighted to meet two old friends while holding the bridle.
The strength is there to run thousands of miles, and the ghosts and supernatural powers are pure and pure in life.
In the autumn days, the cooking fields are being cooked, and the fishing boats are holding their awnings to the evening breeze.
Looking back, the long song is endlessly exciting, the sky is high, the sea is broad and the moon is bright.
After returning to the Chasi Mansion, Mr. Wang sent more than 20 captured Flangji cannons to the capital and various places in Jiubian for imitation, and wrote a letter stating that our army's equipment lagged far behind the Flangji people, and that the fire cannons would be used in the war. Since then, the Ming army has begun the history of manufacturing and equipping large quantities of French artillery guns across the country.
Three days later, a celebration banquet was held across two floors in the largest restaurant in Guangzhou. Officials from Guangzhou, big and small, were present. Even the military general who was missing an arm and a leg and half of his body was covered with a mummy. As difficult as this battle was, the celebration banquet after the war was so lively.
Mr. Wang is very old. He has worked hard for the country and the people. He personally went out to lead the people to defeat the Franji people. No one at today's banquet did not admire such courage. They came over to propose a toast. At this time, Mr. Wang's face was red and he was a little nervous. He couldn't walk steadily, so he held up the wine glass and said, "It's been two years, and we finally drove away those wild-looking people. Su Xiaoyou has contributed a lot this time. I will report it to the meeting." Your Majesty, come! Su Xiaoyou, I’d like to propose a toast to you.”
"Brother Su, you're welcome. I should be toasting you with this cup. Come on, come on! Cheers!" After the two drank the toast, they started chatting in a nonchalant manner. Su Xiaolou, the client, stood next to him. It makes me dumbfounded to watch.
The day after the banquet, Su Xiaolou, He Bi and others left for the north and began their return journey. It was already early February. The cold wind was blowing on the river, and the trackers were slowly pulling the ship to set sail under the sunset.
Su Xiaolou was sleeping in the cabin. At this time, Lu Datong, General Lu Qi, who was thrown out of the Jinyiwei Yamen by Lei Zhen in Nanjing City, was introduced to a group of vicious killers by people on the road. There are not many, and the killing methods are extremely cruel, killing Jin Yiwei several times.
On a dark and windy night, Lu Datong put on a black cloak and covered his face with a black scarf, revealing only a pair of sinister eyebrows, and secretly met with the killers in a remote grove.
The cold wind was blowing, and I saw six black figures in the forest standing against the wind with murderous weapons in their hands. Suddenly, a chilling air hit my face. Lu Datong got off the carriage, his legs were a little weak, and he supported the boy beside him: "This is...it's you. My cousin introduced you to a killer who comes and goes without asking questions and kills people without blinking an eye?"
"Yes, that's them. Master, let's go there."
"Hey...wait a minute, they won't be like the previous killers who were so frightened when they heard that the target was the Jin Yiwei's pacifier, right?"
"Don't worry, young master, this time it's definitely bad enough, bold enough, and cruel enough. And if you increase the quantity, the price won't increase. The price will still be the same."
I walked over tremblingly, and under the moonlight I saw six men in coarse linen clothes standing in a row carrying hoes, axes, chisels, etc., winking and pretending to be fierce, as if they were going to fight to the death with the crops in the field. , Lu Datong's head was full of black lines, and he kicked the young man on the butt: "This is the killer you are looking for, who kills without blinking an eye. Are you bringing people from some farm to deal with me, Master? Believe it or not, Master, I will kill you." Get your ass smashed.”
Seeing that someone dared to look down on their farmer, the leading man glared at Lu Datong with murderous eyes and said solemnly: "Young man, I suggest you be careful what you say. We dealt with several young masters like you from well-known noble families last year. Do you want to deal with you this year?" Let’s get started!”
There is no village or shop in this wilderness. When you roar, only wolves looking for food will respond to you. Lu Datong immediately shut up and asked timidly: "Do you dare to attack the Jin Yiwei of Nanjing City?"
The leading man snorted coldly: "What a coincidence, we also dealt with several Jinyiwei in Nanjing City last year. Do you think we dare?"
"Can you tell me which Jin Yiwei you have dealt with?"
"There are so many, I can't remember them all. One of them is blind."
It has been two years since Lu Datong came to the Jinyiwei Yamen. There are only a few people in the Yamen. He can see almost everyone with his head lowered and not looking up from the toilet every day. If he recalls carefully, there is only Su, the second most hated person in the Yamen. There was a blind lieutenant under Xiaolou who seemed to have been attacked. The former Yan Baihu and now Yan Qianhu in the yamen sent people to investigate for a while, but then nothing happened. It turned out to be this group of people. Dry.
But the blind man was jumping around in the Yamen the day after he was attacked. Why didn't he kill Su Xiaolou as well? Lu Datong mustered up the courage to ask: "I know the blind man. Since it was you who did it, why did he do it?" Can you still dance around in the streets now?"
The strong man in black at the head raised the ax in his hand, and an ax hammer fell to the ground. The ax in his hand was inserted into the soil with a bang. He stared at Lu Datong, which made him feel a little creepy. The few younger brothers behind him They all imitated their boss and inserted their weapons into the soil. Lu Datong was so frightened that his legs became weak.
Lu Datong regretted why he asked that question just now. It's over now. This group of people are going to bury him alive in this posture. It's important to save his life. Just when he was about to beg for mercy, the farmer boss said: "Xiaodouzi, introduce us to our employer." Business."
"Yes, boss." A slightly shorter man next to him spoke eloquently: "We farmers have three killing methods that you can choose from. They are: life and death, life worse than death, and death well deserved. Life and death are life and death. We will tie people up and plant them head down into the soil, leaving a small air hole. Life or death depends entirely on fate. Life is worse than death. We will put poisonous ants in the soil on the basis of life and death. The ants will He crawls into the soil, crawls all over his body, and eats you up bit by bit, is that cruel?"
Lu Datong got goosebumps all over his body after hearing this, and nodded like garlic. Xiaodouzi looked at Lu Datong's cowardly look and said proudly: "This death is a well-deserved death, which can be called certain death. It is to plant people in the soil and then pour water on them." , the water seeped into the mouth and nose, it was almost like being buried alive, and all the hard work you had done was gone."
