An hour later, the Jeju Island fleet left the dock and sailed to the next destination.
There was not a single living person on the entire pier, there were only broken limbs and arms on the ground, and desolation everywhere.
Under the leadership of Wild Dog Jiro, three Japanese pirate forces were wiped out one after another, and the gains were considerable.
When the fleet rushed to the next target, other Japanese pirates on the island began to feel uneasy.
Seeing the power of Jeju Island's artillery fire, and even more so the ruthlessness and determination of Jeju Island, they felt the crisis, so they gathered together to discuss countermeasures and prepared to join a group to keep warm.
"Everyone, Jeju Island's artillery is really powerful. We are no match at all. Do you have any other ideas?"
"Jeju Island came here with bad intentions this time. It destroyed four forces as soon as they came up. They will definitely take action against us next."
"Everyone, we are all smart people and understand the situation at hand. Only if we unite can we have a glimmer of hope."
"You're right. Look at it like this. It's time to deal with us next. We can't sit still and wait for death."
"But even if we join forces, it will be difficult for us to deal with their artillery. The power is simply not something that flesh and blood can withstand."
After hearing this, everyone was silent for a while. The biggest threat to them was the artillery and the hand cannon that resembled the thunder.
Without these firearms, they would not be afraid of the people on Jeju Island.
At this time, someone else said: "Everyone, at this point, we can't just take a step back. Even if we want to retreat, the other party must be willing to let us go. Looking at this posture, they want to take all of us Kill them all, this will not allow us to give in."
"That's true. For now, we have no choice but to risk our lives and fight them to the death."
"I don't object to a fight. The key is how to deal with the artillery. This is the most critical issue."
"The range of artillery is limited. If we are all concentrated outside the range of their artillery, their artillery will be ineffective. If they dare to attack us, we can rely on our numerical advantage to make them unable to come back, even if they are Even if the loss is greater, I will admit it.”
"Yes, that's all it seems. We can also find some crossbows and shoot them from a long distance. According to my observation, although the hand cannon is powerful, the throwing distance is not too far. It's better to Bows and arrows have a long range.”
"In this way, wouldn't it solve the problem in front of us? Hahahaha. It seems that there is strength in numbers. Three cobblers can defeat one Zhuge Liang."
"Everyone, now that we have a solution, let's prepare quickly, gather together as soon as possible, and fight to the death with the people of Jeju Island. Victory or defeat depends on this, so please do your best, please."
After some discussion, they found a way to deal with firearms, and the remaining Japanese pirate leaders started preparing separately.
When the Jeju Island fleet, under the guidance of Wild Dog Jiro, rushed to the next target, they found that the place was empty and there was no one.
Lin Daiyu said doubtfully: "Brother Cong, these Japanese pirates must have been scared away by us. After all, we have eliminated four groups of Japanese pirates. The news must have spread. These people must know that they cannot fight against us, so they are in advance." He ran away."
Jia Cong nodded and said: "Sister Lin is right. This is really possible. If they all evacuate to the center of the island, we won't be able to go too deep, and we can only go back." It’s home.”
Lin Daiyu said: "Brother Cong, are you going to let these Japanese pirates go like this?"
Jia Cong looked towards the island and frowned slightly.
The reason why Jia Cong dared to deal with these Japanese pirates was mainly due to the sharpness of firearms and the unexpected attack.
Once the other party is on guard and all retreats to the island, all he can do is watch.
It's not that I don't dare to fight in, but the price is too high if I really want to do so. Even if I can win, I will definitely suffer heavy losses, so it's not worth the gain.
After all, I am waiting for others.
Anyone who comes, the people on the island will definitely inform the Japanese pirates, and even cause trouble for themselves and others. In this case, it will be even more troublesome.
Unless they kill everyone in their path, leaving no grass behind, and slaughter all the people on the island.
Although he was ruthless and killed all four groups of Japanese pirates, it was because they were full of evil and deserved to die.
However, I am not a crazy person, and I cannot be so cruel to those innocent people.
There must be at least 600,000 to 700,000 people on Kyushu Island. Even with just a few thousand people, I can't do it. I don't have that much time.
I remember that Meng Yuan once attacked the Japanese country and wanted to completely conquer the Japanese country.
However, the two wars the Mongols fought against the Japanese ended in humiliating defeats. A total of more than 100,000 troops and tens of thousands of Mongolian elites were buried forever on Japanese islands or buried in the sea.
The strength of his own naval fleet and his understanding of the sea are not comparable to those of the Mongols.
Similarly, the Mongols are more powerful than I can compare to them now.
More importantly, it doesn't make much sense to conquer Kyushu Island by yourself, because you have no ability to occupy it.
There are not many talented people under their command. One Jeju Island is enough to keep them busy, but they do not yet have this strength.
Moreover, as long as the navy blocks the sea area, they will not be able to make any big waves. At sea, they cannot defeat their own North Sea Fleet.
When there is nothing wrong, it would be quite nice to let the fleet sneak attack them from time to time and snatch them away.
Thinking of this, Jia Cong said: "If they really retreat to the island and we attack rashly, the losses will definitely be huge. In that case, the gains will not be worth the losses. It is better to withdraw first and worry about it later."
Lin Daiyu nodded and said, "Well, brother Cong can make the decision. No matter what decision you make, my sister will support you."
At this time, I heard Qingwen say: "Sir, there seems to be someone in the distance ahead. They are outside the range of the artillery. These people are much smarter than those in front."
Jia Cong's expression moved slightly, he raised his telescope and looked ahead.
I saw a large crowd gathering at the back of the beach, about five or six miles away. If I looked carefully, they were all Japanese pirates. Everyone was holding a Japanese sword, and many people were holding bows and arrows in their hands, looking like they were ready.
These people are really smart and know how to hide outside the range of the artillery, so that their artillery will not work.
Moreover, they have also prepared a lot of bows and arrows, which should be used to deal with their own grenades. There are really smart people here. As a result, their own artillery and grenades will be useless.
While thinking, Zhang Dakui and Water Monkey came to their Jeju ship in a small boat.
Faced with the current situation, they had no choice but to come over and ask for instructions.
"This subordinate has met your Excellency."
Jia Cong waved his hand and said: "Get up, but are you here for the battle in front of you?"
Water Monkey said: "My lord, you are really good at predicting things. Those Japanese pirates actually learned the lesson and hid far away. Our artillery can't hit them at all. These medium-sized artillery pieces on your boat can actually hit them, just because of their numbers." Too little."
Jia Cong said: "There are only six medium-sized artillery pieces on this ship. I think all the people will be gone after two rounds of shooting. It's of little significance. It's better not to be exposed. Let's save it as a trump card in the future."
Water Monkey nodded, and he deeply agreed with Jia Cong's decision.
"Sir, why don't we send everyone ashore and concentrate all our efforts to attack them. With the grenades here, we don't have to worry about their numbers."
Zhang Dakui said: "I'm afraid this won't work. I saw a lot of people in that group holding bows and arrows. If we charge hard, the casualties will probably be considerable. Even if we can win, it will be a miserable victory. There is no need at all."
Jia Cong said: "I originally thought that all these Japanese pirates had run away and planned to withdraw. Since these people haven't given up yet and have all gathered together, let's help them. We can take advantage of the situation and kill them all at once, which will also eliminate a future problem. .”
Zhang Dakui said: "Sir, isn't it a bit risky to do this?
risk? Those people seemed to number between thirty and forty thousand, and our total number was only eight thousand, and they also had quite a few archers, who suppressed us quite a lot. "
Li Biao smiled and said, "Commander Zhang, don't you know? We have a new type of firearm with a range of about 400 meters. It is more powerful than a grenade. It can deal with those archers with ease."
"this······"
Zhang Dakui was a little surprised when he heard this and turned to look at Jia Cong.
Jia Cong has very strict control over these firearms. Except for the artillery supplied to the fleet, grenades are not even widely distributed. They are only distributed every time they are used, and they are never seen at all.
In order to avoid leaks, except for the special forces and some soldiers, even Zhang Dakui did not know.
Jia Cong said: "Li Biao is right. This kind of firearm is called a grenade. It is more than enough to deal with these people. One thousand people will be left to guard the fleet, and the others will all go ashore to try to annihilate the Japanese pirates in one fell swoop.
Li Biao, you lead 40 people, carry 20 grenade launchers, and 200 grenades, and move forward with the team. Take the enemy by surprise and hit them hard. I believe they will be very happy. "
"Yes, I will obey."
After hearing Jia Cong's order, everyone responded in unison, then turned around and went down to prepare.
After a while, seven thousand men and horses gathered on the beach, forming a formation, waiting for the order to set off.
Jia Cong stood at the front and said loudly: "Brothers, the Japanese pirates invaded my homeland and killed my compatriots. Today we are going to wipe them out in one fell swoop. Are you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, kill the Japanese pirates and eliminate harm for the people."
"Kill the Japanese pirates and eliminate harm for the people."
"Kill the Japanese pirates and eliminate harm for the people."
The soldiers were excited and their morale was high. The roar of the mountains and the tsunami resounded over the entire beach. Even the Japanese pirates hiding five or six miles away felt a little timid after hearing this.
As soon as Jia Cong raised his hand, the sound immediately stopped, and the place immediately became silent.
Jia Cong shouted again: "You are all good, now I order, the target is right in front, kill the Japanese pirates, set off!"
Following Jia Cong's order, the entire team began to move, maintaining the attack formation and slowly approaching the Japanese pirates in the distance.
Jia Cong followed at the back of the team, surrounded by Lin Daiyu, Qingwen, Chunxie Qiudong, and his own soldiers.
Lin Daiyu had been following Jia Cong and had never been to the battlefield in person. This time she followed Jia Cong into the battlefield. Her face was full of excitement and she looked eager to try.
"Brother Cong, are we going to kill the enemy soon?"
Seeing her excited look, Jia Cong shook his head secretly. Watching others kill enemies was two different things from killing enemies himself.
Looking at the scene on the battlefield from a distance is like a painting. If you are in it, the feeling will be completely different. Whether you can accept it or not is a matter of debate.
"There's no rush. We'll see what happens. If there's a chance, I'll let you try your skills."
When Lin Daiyu heard what Jia Cong said, she felt even more excited and said happily: "Well, brother Cong, I'm ready."
Jia Cong didn't want to dampen her enthusiasm. He just nodded and said to Chunlan and Xia Zhu: "Chunlan, Xia Zhu, you two will follow Sister Lin in a moment. Don't let anyone hurt her."
Chunlan and Xia Zhu cupped their hands and said, "Master, don't worry, we will protect Miss Lin."
Lin Daiyu knew that Jia Cong was worried about her, so she did not refuse. She followed Jia Cong excitedly as the troops advanced.
When the Japanese pirate forces saw that the team from Jeju Island had really attacked, they felt happy. They could annihilate them in one fell swoop, and then those warships and artillery would be their own.
"Everyone, those guys who don't care about life or death actually dare to come to die. We can't let them go this time."
"Haha, we are ready. We don't have artillery, and we don't have hand cannons. Let's see what they have to rely on. This time they will never come back."
"Okay, everyone, go down and get ready.
Well, I hope everyone can do their best to avoid this trouble. "
······
When the team from Jeju Island was still two hundred steps away from the Japanese pirates, they saw several rows of archers standing densely in front of the group of Japanese pirates. There were at least three to four thousand people. At first glance, it was quite intimidating. of.
Watching the Jeju Island team steadily advance and gradually approach, all the Japanese pirates did not move and stared at them closely.
The range of an ordinary bow and arrow is only fifty or sixty steps. Only those with infinite strength can penetrate a poplar with a hundred steps and shoot a hundred steps away. However, there are too few such people.
Soon after reaching a hundred steps, the men and horses of Jeju Island suddenly stopped in place.
The Japanese pirates were a little confused. Could it be that they were scared when they saw their archers?
While he was wondering, he saw the people in the front row of the other party quickly dispersed, revealing twenty cylinder-like objects, propped up on the ground, facing toward him diagonally. He didn't know what they were.
I saw twenty people, each holding a dark object and putting it in the tube.
Then he heard a muffled sound, and the twenty black things flew out of the barrel, flew towards him, and fell into the crowd.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
Twenty explosions, exclamations, and screams immediately rang out from the group of Japanese pirates.
"Don't be fooled. They have mobile artillery. Hurry up and stop them."
