Chapter 416: Bullying Nanhua for Not Having a Man (Second Update, Please Subscribe)

After leaving the main hall of the palace, Li Fengzhi had a sullen face and said nothing all the way. When he was about to leave the palace from Guangfu Gate, he deliberately took a look at the main hall behind him. According to the Ryukyu people, the main hall of the palace is extremely similar to the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Forbidden City, but it is smaller in scale. Its foundation stone is built with the male bluestone imported from China.

This is a vassal state of China!

How can we allow the Japanese to be the boss here?

Even if it is a round, it is not the turn of the Japanese to be in charge here.

As Li Fengzhi turned around and gazed at the palace, Rosen spoke from the side.

"Captain, since they were rude first, we should teach them a lesson. Otherwise, if our Nanhua ship encounters an accident in the future, they will refuse to allow the ship to enter the port, which will only cause the death of our Nanhua people! If we allow them to bully us today, the people of Nanhua will surely die in the future!"

Rosen, who was born as a Royal Navy officer, speaks with absolute bandit logic, but his bandit logic is the basic logic used by the strong in this era.

Not to mention Rosen, even the two accompanying officers looked indignant.

"Captain, this matter cannot be easily resolved, otherwise they will really think that we, Nanhua, are as weak and can be bullied as the Qing Dynasty!"

As naval officers, they certainly knew how weak "our Qing Dynasty" was and how it was bullied by others, but that was not the case with Nanhua!

"Do they really think that our Nanhua warships are just for show?"

The feeling of being looked down upon was really unpleasant. While sighing, Li Fengzhi ignored the anger of others and just walked forward silently.

After walking out of the royal city, Li Fengzhi looked at the 40 sailors and trainee officers who were accompanying him. They came as a guard of honor.

After thinking for a while, he nodded slightly and gave an order to the first mate Yang Wu.

"Order the troops to assemble."

Then he spoke softly in Spanish.

"Tell everyone to prepare for battle. We will take over the Enforcement Office soon!"

"yes!"

The order was quickly passed on to the entourage. No one questioned the order from their superior. Under the guidance of the Ryukyu officials, they walked along the stone road in front of the royal city towards the port. Li Fengzhi's eyes were fixed on the Shureimon Archway in front of them. The so-called "Bugyingso" was on the roadside on the east side of the archway.

Lin Zhi, who was accompanying him, noticed that Li Fengzhi was staring at the magistrate's office, so he spoke to comfort him.

"General, the Japanese are arrogant. Please forgive us."

It would have been better if he didn't say anything. When he finished speaking, Li Fengzhi shouted loudly.

"The Japanese are so arrogant. Do they really think that there are no men in Nanhua?"

Without Li Feng's order, the sailors shouted and charged towards the magistrate's office with their rifles. Before the Japanese at the door could react, they fell to the ground with the sound of gunfire.

"General, why is this happening?"

Lin Zhi was immediately dumbfounded.

Li Fengzhi ignored him and gave orders to his subordinates.

"How can we tolerate the Japanese bullying our Nanhua? First Officer Yang, send a signal to the ship to prepare for battle!"

"yes!"

Yang Hu took out a signal gun and fired a shot into the air. The red flare flew into the sky with fireworks. Although it was not night, the red flare was still extremely eye-catching. After the officers and soldiers on the ship discovered the signal, they immediately went into combat readiness.

"Quick, everyone, get ready for battle. Gunners, aim at the turrets and be ready to fire at any time. Li Anbang, lead the sailors ashore..."

Deputy Captain Zhao Wenjie immediately implemented the response plan. He was not worried about the artillery on the shore at all. They were just a few muzzle-loading smoothbore guns. Although the "Si Hai" was a training ship, it was also a steel-hulled ship!

When the gunners were operating the 150mm naval guns on the side and aiming at the turrets, the movement of the brigade's armed sailors disembarking still caused panic among the people. The captains and sailors on merchant ships of various countries all looked around with confusion on their faces.

What happened?

When hundreds of fully armed sailors landed, fierce fighting had already begun inside and outside the magistrate's office. The Japanese inside the magistrate's office either drew out their samurai swords or fired rifles against the pillars and walls. Although they were outnumbered, the Nanhua sailors did not show any weakness. With their sophisticated 70-type rifles, they continuously concentrated their firepower to suppress the Japanese. A team of sailors took the opportunity to follow up with rifle bayonets to provide cover.

When the sailors found some Japanese holding samurai swords trying to approach, they immediately aimed and shot at them. Under the powerful firepower of the Type 70 rifle, the Japanese were beaten so badly that they couldn't even raise their heads.

After more than a dozen people fell one after another, a leader shouted.

"Wait until they change their bullets!"

But this idea was doomed to fail, because the Type 70 rifle not only used a clip, but also a 10-round magazine. Its powerful firepower made it the king of this era.

“Quick, quick…”

After running out of the palace, Teng Tianqingci ran wildly while urging his subordinates to rush to the Bugyokan. The Nanhua people were crazy. Why would they attack the Bugyokan? They shouldn't...

There was no point in thinking about anything else at this time. When Tengda Keiji was rushing towards the Bugyokan, the armed sailors were also rushing towards the palace. They were rushing along the way and did not encounter any interception at all.

In fact, the Ryukyu soldiers on the artillery platform also noticed something unusual, but the garrison commander knew very well how powerful the foreign ships were and dared not fight back without the king's order. Most of the Ryukyu people that the sailors encountered along the way hid in their homes and watched the sailors from afar.

On the way to the royal city, the sharp-eyed sailors discovered Wu Anping and his men surrounded in the tavern. Before rushing into the tavern, they knocked down several Japanese and confiscated their weapons.

What is going on?

Fujita looked at these people a little confused.

"Captain, the Japanese are coming from the palace..."

Looking towards the direction of the royal city, he saw a group of Japanese, about forty or fifty in number, rushing towards this side in a mighty manner. Every time the magistrate entered the royal city, there was a full set of "ceremonial guards". In the past, Wu Teng had never thought that one day someone would be so bold as to attack his magistrate's office.

"Li He, get ready..."

At this moment, a smile appeared on Li Fengzhi's face. From another direction, a large group of sailors were rushing towards this side, and in the middle of the sailors, a Gatling machine gun was being pushed.

A moment later, just as the two armies were about to hand over, the sound of rapid machine gun fire echoed in the street. Wu Teng and his group, who were originally running, immediately fell down. Under the dense rain of bullets, the street was bloody red. Those Japanese holding knives and guns simply could not believe their eyes.

machine gun!

As the sailors moved, machine gun bullets flew all over the street. Wu Teng, who was running, heard the gunshots and instinctively fell to the ground. He felt his face was wet. A foot soldier in front of him was shot in the chest, and the splattered blood and flesh splashed all over Wu Teng.

But in just a moment, more than a dozen people around Wu Teng fell down, and before the others could react, they were knocked down again. For a while, the streets were filled with the screams of the wounded.

The scene before him made him open his eyes wide in astonishment. Under the cover of machine guns, the sailors continued their attack. While the sailors were charging, the machine guns were still firing. The sailors' rifles fired like rain of bullets, suppressing the Japanese.

The battle lasted only a few minutes. When the sailors rushed over, Wu Teng, who was as sad as if he had lost his parents, shouted loudly.

"I surrender..."
