Fujino Enrou was shocked. When did this dry pig have such a weapon? He was almost hit from such a distance.
Surrounded by many people, he quickly ran a distance.
They breathed a sigh of relief when they saw no arrows coming.
Just then, one of his subordinates ran over, shouting, "It's bad! We're surrounded!"
Enraged, Fujino Enrou grabbed his subordinate by the collar, glared at him, and said fiercely in Dongyi language, "Is the banner Song?"
"yes!"
"Hmph, it's that guy surnamed Song again!"
Fujino Enrou asked again menacingly, "How many dried pigs are there?"
The subordinate replied, "About two or three thousand."
Fujino Enrou suddenly burst into laughter: "Hahahaha! Two or three thousand pigs dare to surround my Fujino? Do they think I'm some useless trash? Yoshikawa, quickly send a signal to the head of the family and request that he send ships to land. We will wipe out the entire Gan army here today!"
"yes!"
A subordinate named Yoshikawa immediately sent the signal.
Upon receiving the signal, the Japanese fleet indeed dispatched another ten ships!
On the shore, Song Lian looked through his binoculars at the massive Japanese pirate ships sailing on the sea, let out a cold laugh, and ordered his men, "Bring the cannons up!"
At this moment, on the open space by the coast, heads were still continuously emerging from the underground caves...
Starting from Liujiagang, along the flat and open coastal area, almost the entire underground area was hollowed out. After the bunkers were opened, one after another, large soldiers emerged...
Upon hearing Song Lian's order, the soldiers used steel plates to create bridges between the square pits and pulled the cannons up with great effort.
Qin Chuan can use excavators to dig tunnels and drilling equipment to dig burrows, but they can't get tanks and can only rely on artillery to attack ships.
After pulling up a full twenty cannons, Song Lian ordered the gunners to fire at the Japanese pirate warships that had come to provide support.
Boom!
The cannonballs landed on the Japanese pirates' giant ship, blasting a huge hole in the hull.
The solid iron ball cannonball pierced the hull and rolled violently into the ship, killing several Japanese pirates with screams...
"Damn dried pig!"
On the turtle ship, the Japanese pirates cursed loudly and then opened fire in return.
Unfortunately, the turtle ship's cannons had a shorter range than the large cannons, and since they were fired from the ship, their accuracy was poor, and they couldn't hit the shore at all.
On one side, twenty cannons bombarded the enemy in turn, while thousands of soldiers kept emerging from the ground, cutting off and encircling the Japanese pirates on land.
Upon seeing this, Fujino Enrou's eyes blazed with fury, and he bared his teeth in a rage: "Damn pigs! Why are they popping out of the ground like rats?!"
"Yoshikawa!" Fujino Enrou shouted anxiously, "We're surrounded! Signal to the head of the clan that the dry pig is prepared and shouldn't come to our aid. Wait for me to break through, then head south to rendezvous!"
"yes!"
Yoshikawa immediately went to send the signal.
Upon receiving the signal, the Japanese pirate turtle ships indeed ceased their advance and dispersed, heading south along the sea...
"What happened?"
Song Lian was puzzled. With so many Japanese pirate warships, they could have easily landed and then fled in disgrace.
At this moment, Qin Chuan, under the protection of Li Aniu and more than a hundred personal guards, arrived in front of Song Lian.
Seeing the Japanese pirate fleet retreat, he instructed Song Lian: "Quickly send men to occupy the ten ships at the dock. Once we have these ships, we can fight naval battles with the Japanese pirates."
Song Lian had already sent men to occupy the area. Upon hearing Qin Chuan's words, he calmly replied, "Rest assured, Grand Preceptor, I have already seized these ten large ships from the Japanese pirates."
Qin Chuan nodded. It seemed that Song Lian was far superior to him in terms of military strategy.
Looking at the groups of Japanese pirates who were divided and surrounded on the battlefield, Qin Chuan pointed to Fujino Enryō's figure and said to Song Lian, "Give the order that this thief must be captured alive!"
Song Lian stroked his beard and chuckled, "I gave the order a long time ago."
Qin Chuan: "..."
It seems I'm superfluous; there's no need for me to give orders at all!
Song Lian and Guan Yong had already thought of everything.
That's fine too. We can just sit back and watch the show, and only take action when necessary.
...
at this time.
Fujino Enrou, leading two or three hundred ronin samurai, glared fiercely at the Gan army that had formed an encirclement, and cursed, "Baka! What two or three thousand men! There are more than five thousand!"
Yoshikawa looked dejected; he had no idea so many soldiers were hiding underground…
"Musketeers, archers, let's break out from the southeast!"
Fujino Enrou commands the musketeers and archers.
About 50 warriors raised their muskets, stood in a neat row, and began firing at the approaching troops.
After one round of firing, about 20 soldiers fell to the ground.
Qin Chuan, who was looking through binoculars, was completely stunned!
I can't even get my hands on a musket, yet the Japanese pirates have muskets?!
There were a total of 50 muskets?
Although their musket tactics were extremely outdated, still relying on firing squads, very few of the soldiers had ever seen such a thing before, and they were so frightened that their formation immediately fell apart.
Firearms have been used extensively before. Emperor Taizong once established the Shenji Battalion in the capital, which included hundreds of musketeers. However, the firearms used at that time were matchlock guns, which were inferior to arquebuses and had little power. Due to financial difficulties in the national treasury, the Shenji Battalion was later disbanded.
With the Shenji Battalion abolished, the musketeers naturally ceased to exist.
Therefore, fewer and fewer people have seen a musket...
Suddenly, a deafening roar erupted, as if a winter thunderclap had exploded across the sky.
The dark sky was suddenly filled with heavy rain!
