As the Qilin Guards continued to pursue, in less than a quarter of an hour, more than three hundred Qilin Guards all died for their country! However, there are more than a thousand enemies lying down. At this moment, the opposite coast has turned into a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. Red blood continues to flow into the sea, and the river surface has become very turbid!
Sasaki Masaki stood at a high place and saw the scene below, his eyes filled with astonishment, "What kind of army is this...?"
"General, do we still want to fight back?"
"How to fight back? Are you going to the sea to the shore? I won't stop you!"
"I……?"
On the side of the Ming Dynasty's army, Zhao Xuanyi gritted his teeth, his eyes became blood red, his breathing was messed up, he held the reins tightly with both hands, and could not say a word.
"Withdraw!" A sweet shout came from Li Hanyan's mouth.
After everyone heard the order, they began to retreat. There were no bridges to attack the other side. There was no way to capture the other side. It was useless to stay. All the troops began to withdraw one after another!
Tang Tianli stood on the shore, his face full of tears. When he saw the corpses opposite, he could no longer find Xiaohu's body! At this moment, Wang Yunlong came over and patted Tang Tianli on the shoulder, "Let's go, we will avenge this!"
Tang Tianli wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve, took a deep breath, then turned and left the shore! Having experienced so many wars, I cannot say that I have a thorough understanding of life and death, but a veteran like him knows that sadness cannot lead to victory in the battle!
At this moment, on the position on the other side, a Japanese pirate stood up unsteadily. Seeing thousands of corpses on the shore, he could not help but feel very happy that he had survived. When he saw that the enemy had begun to retreat, the man laughed. Laughing, pointing at the retreating troops opposite and laughing loudly.
"Baga! Ouma digs Baga and crushes him to death! Hahaha!"
When Wang Yunlong heard the sound, he turned around and saw a Japanese pirate laughing at him on the shore. He immediately drew his Tianyi bow [Whoosh! 】An arrow flew out, and then without looking, he immediately turned around and continued to evacuate with Tang Tianli!
【Puch! 】The arrow was like a meteor, hitting the head of the cheering Japanese pirate. The man immediately fell to the ground, and after a few twitches of his hands and feet, he became motionless! I guess this is the result he wants, his dream is to be a martyr!
Seeing all the Ming Dynasty troops evacuate, the Japanese pirates rushed out of the tunnel and looked at the corpses everywhere. No one cheered or was happy. Although they guarded Chimen Pass, they knew in their hearts what they were doing. The price has been saved!
Although the Ming Dynasty's army did not attack today, their Qilin Guards were an eye-opener for all the Japanese pirates. They did not expect that their combat effectiveness and awareness could be so strong!
Zhao Xuanyi and others returned to the village again. Everyone was very disappointed. After all, today's defeat was so severe. No one expected that a broken barrel could ruin such a big plan. It was like It was you who used a very precious sweat-blooded horse to race a horse, but was confused by a donkey. In the end, you lost so ugly that no one can accept it!
Inside the Chinese army's tent, Zhao Xuanyi sat on a chair and took a deep breath, "How many people were lost in this battle?"
Shen Wei came over, "After being wanted, plus the 80 sailors from the Far Eastern Army, the total loss was 537 people!"
After Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he lowered his head and said nothing. He had planned this battle. Now that he lost, it was also his responsibility. Zhao Xuanyi really didn't expect that the other party would have such a smart commanding person, and he had already been preparing on the upper level. The countermeasures!
This person must have guessed that he would build a floating bridge, so he set up such a fatal mechanism! Zhao Xuanyi thought to himself, he is still young! I have too little experience in this kind of cross-sea battle!
Zhu Wenyu came over and patted Zhao Xuanyi on the shoulder, "Brother, today's battle is obvious to all. It's not your fault, but the other side is too cunning. Otherwise, you can definitely cross the sea with your warship pontoon! And today Qilin It’s not shameful for Wei to kill more than twice the opponent’s number, we won’t lose!”
Zhao Xuanyi took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, "Brother Qi, I'll go back and take a rest first. Let's continue discussing how to fight tomorrow!"
"Would you like to rest for two more days?"
"No need, one day is enough!" After Zhao Xuanyi said that, he stood up and walked out of the tent!
Li Hanyan hurriedly followed Zhao Xuanyi, grabbed Zhao Xuanyi's arm, and returned to his residence with him!
Everyone in the big tent watched Zhao Xuanyi leave. Everyone's eyes were very disappointed. Zhu Wenyu looked at everyone, "Everyone, please go back and rest. We will continue tomorrow. We don't have much time to be compassionate!"
"Yes!" everyone shouted loudly! Then they all left!
Zhao Xuanyi returned to the room. Li Hanyan took off all Zhao Xuanyi's armor, and then took off his clothes. "Husband, go to bed and take a nap! Are you exhausted from fighting today?"
"Okay!" Zhao Xuanyi said softly, turned around and lay directly on the bed, his eyes looking into the sky, his eyes were very empty. At this moment, Zhao Xuanyi was like a puppet without a soul!
Li Hanyan took off her armor, then came to lie beside Zhao Xuanyi, and hugged Zhao Xuanyi gently, "Husband, it's okay, isn't it just a failure? We can win it back!"
Zhao Xuanyi nodded, but said nothing. His eyes were still staring blankly into the air, not knowing what he was thinking. Li Hanyan slowly stretched out her jade hand, gently attached it to Zhao Xuanyi's eyes, and slowly covered Zhao Xuanyi's eyes!
"Sleep now and don't think about anything, okay?" After Li Hanyan finished speaking, she raised her head and gave Zhao Xuanyi a kiss. Maybe this kiss was really useful. Zhao Xuanyi slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep!
All the soldiers returned to the village. All the soldiers thought of today's battle. Although they lost in the end, no one blamed Zhao Xuanyi, because it was not that Zhao Xuanyi's plan was wrong, but that the enemy had too many tricks and was about to succeed. , just a little short of that!
Shen Wei and Jinglan patrolled around the military camp to take a look at the state of the military camp. When they heard all the soldiers regretting today's battle, they looked at each other and sighed!
"Young Master must be very distressed now!" Jinglan said.
Shen Wei nodded, "I don't think this is a bad thing!"
"What do you mean?"
"Young Master, he has fought so many times and won too many times to count. On the contrary, he has lost only a handful of battles. Losing once in a while is not a bad thing. What I am afraid of is that if he keeps winning, he will lose something very important. , in my opinion, if five hundred people buy this lesson, it’s not a loss!”
"Your thoughts are so cold!"
"This is a battlefield. All experience and victory are gained with human lives. There is nothing cold-blooded or not. It's just that I'm worried about the young master. I hope he won't be hit too hard!"
Jinglan turned her head and looked at the room where Zhao Xuanyi was resting, without saying anything, "What should we do next?"
Shen Wei shook his head, "Just wait until tomorrow. The young master will give orders when he wakes up!"
"Will it be so soon?"
Shen Wei smiled, "Who do you think he is? How could he just let it go if he looks so ugly? There must be sadness, but he will come up with more powerful tactics. I never worry about this. After all, he is a very good person." Narrow-minded!"
"It's better that you understand Young Master!" Jinglan said.
Zhu Wenyu was very anxious in the room. Today's failure was far beyond their expectations. They didn't expect that there was a powerful person on the other side who could break Zhao Xuanyi's plan so easily!
"Junior sister!"
"exist!"
"Let the imperial chef cook some good dishes and send them to Zhao Xuanyi's room!"
"is that useful?"
"I don't know, but I don't know what else to do now. I'm the prince, so I'm so useless!" After Zhu Wenyu finished speaking, he laughed to himself!
Lan Chuyin smiled, said nothing, turned around and made arrangements!
At this moment, in the Japanese position, Sasaki Masaki was sitting in the big tent. Yamana Taro walked in, looked at Sasaki Masaki, and smiled, "I didn't expect that you, your Excellency, are so young and have such powerful tactics. It's really surprising. surprise!"
Sasaki Masaken looked at Yamanataro, and then said, "Although we stopped the opponent's attack today, we also paid a heavy price.
I think they will not give up, and they will definitely make a comeback soon! "
"Indeed, do you have any good ideas?"
"For the time being... not yet, but judging from today's battle, the opponent's combat power is much more powerful than the rumors! We need to make more preparations!"
"The rest of the battle will be all directed by you. I, the warriors of the Yamana family, can use them as you wish!" After all, Yamana Taro also saw Ming's fighting power today, and he has no other choice now!
"Immediately ask someone to find more buckets and put them on the upper mountain!"
"How much do you want?"
"As many as we find, they will definitely build pontoon bridges. We can't let them succeed in building bridges. We must break them!"
"Okay, I'll order my men immediately!"
"And this barrel cannot contain water!"
"No water? That will reduce the impact force!"
"Pack oil!"
"..." Yamana Taro.
And Zhao Xuanyi was drowsy. When he woke up again, it was already night! His arms were empty, Li Hanyan was gone, and he didn't know where he was. He slowly sat up and saw the swaying candlelight in the room, just like Zhao Xuanyi's heart now, he was as frightened and uneasy!
"Husband, are you awake?" Li Hanyan walked in from outside!
"Yeah!" Zhao Xuanyi nodded lightly. Seeing many delicious dishes on the table, Zhao Xuanyi couldn't help but wonder, "Is this?"
"The prince asked the imperial chef to make it and bring it to you. Let you have a good rest tonight and drink some wine to relieve the unhappiness in your heart!" After speaking, Li Hanyan opened a jar of wine and poured a bowl for Zhao Xuanyi. "Husband, Come over here and have a drink, I’ll keep you company!”
Zhao Xuanyi smiled. He didn't expect that he would still have his wife drinking with him on this day. He lifted the quilt and walked to the dining table.
Li Hanyan picked up the bowl and said, "Here, let's drink together!"
Zhao Xuanyi picked up the bowl and then looked at Li Hanyan, "I remember this was the first time we drank together! Who knew we had been married for five years?"
"It's six years! The Spring Festival just passed a few days ago, have you forgotten?"
"Oh... yes, it's six years!" Zhao Xuanyi smiled bitterly after saying that, and then he and Li Hanyan drank the sake in one sip. Although it was not as strong as the white wine in the Central Plains, it made sense!
Zhao Xuanyi looked at Li Hanyan, "Daughter-in-law, you said I didn't succeed today. Where did I lose?"
"Experience, right? We were only thinking about how to resist the opponent's arrows, but we didn't expect that they could also use rivers and barrels as impact tools. It seems that this is a problem that needs to be solved, otherwise our pontoon bridge will be built again, and they It can still be cracked!"
After hearing this, Zhao Xuanyi agreed very much, "Then do you have any good ideas?"
"For now! No! I'm not as smart as you, but I think you will find a way!" Li Hanyan said with a smile.
"You really think highly of me!"
"Of course, you are my husband. You have transformed from an unlearned young master to the current Protector of the Country. Your performance and great achievements along the way have been witnessed by all. Everyone. Everyone knows about you!"
When Zhao Xuanyi heard Li Hanyan's scratch, a smile appeared on his face, "I really didn't expect to be praised by you!"
"Who can I blame? When I first met you, you walked around Sister Ziyuan every day, and there was no serious look in your eyes. You did whatever you wanted to do as a disciple. You were nostalgic for brothels, squandered a lot of money, and you asked me If I go to a brothel to settle the debt for you, I guess you are the only one in the entire Ming Dynasty!"
The two talked about the past as if it was yesterday. Zhao Xuanyi burst out laughing after hearing this, and then drank several bowls of wine. Li Hanyan also accompanied Zhao Xuanyi. It was rare for the couple to be so calm. Usually they would fight or fight when they met. Killing is clearly like a pair of enemies!
