Chapter 1168: Report on Japanese pirates in various counties (Part 2)
It turns out that this is how Ninghai County was captured by Japanese pirates!
Guan Yao, Guan Yao, his name is not worthy of his name! It's ruining my life! You said it would be great if you defend the city well. If you defend the city well, more than a thousand defenders will defend the city wall against more than 2,000 Japanese pirates. Ninghai County will be as stable as Mount Tai. However, it will be extremely difficult for the Japanese pirates to capture Ninghai County. You said you, this is an emergency that affects the life and death of the entire county. Why are you so blind? Alas, one general is really incompetent and the three armies are exhausted. You are so incompetent that you have harmed yourself, and you have also harmed the entire people of Ninghai County.
Originally, Ninghai County was the most likely to survive the Japanese invasion, but now it was completely destroyed by Guan Yao!
Originally, in this massive Japanese invasion, Taizhou’s capital city and Tiantai County were preserved. As long as Ninghai County was preserved, this political disaster would be alleviated a lot. , go through the relationship by yourself, find someone to clear your joints, and you will be somewhat sure that you will get through it safely.
But now!
All of this was ruined by Guan Yao's reckless battle! Ninghai County, which had the best hope of preservation, fell!
Alas!
Hope was once within reach, but now it is torn to pieces!
Taizhou magistrate Tan Lun suffered a 10,000-point blow in his heart, his face turned extremely dark, and the teacup in his hand was almost shattered.
"Alas, Guan Qianhu was too reckless. If we had defended the city step by step, how could Ninghai County be captured by the Japanese pirates?!"
"That is, Ninghai County is high and deep, backed by mountains and surrounded by moats. Among the seven counties in Taizhou, it is most easy to defend and difficult to attack. If there are more than a thousand defenders defending the city, two people will be able to defend it. How can more than a thousand Japanese pirates capture the enemy?"
"Oh, the incompetence of one general will kill the three armies. What a pity, what a pity."
< br>Everyone at the banquet sighed after hearing how Ninghai County was captured by Japanese pirates.
Every sigh from the crowd was like a sharp blade piercing into the chest of Taizhou Magistrate Tan Lun
The news of the fall of Ninghai County cast a shadow over the banquet, and the lively banquet suddenly cooled down a lot.
After another tea time, everyone at the banquet heard another rapid sound of horse hooves, followed by another sound of footsteps.
It’s such a familiar rhythm. Needless to say, there are new reports of Japanese war from the scouts.
Everyone turned their attention to the entrance of the banquet.
Sure enough, everyone soon saw a small soldier on horseback running in with a dusty appearance.
"Report to the governor and general, Huangyan County battle report."
Tan Ma Xiaobing trotted into the banquet and half-knelt on the ground to report to Taizhou Magistrate Tan Lun, Yu Dayou and others.
Huangyan County Battle Report!
Hearing the battle report from Huangyan County, Taizhou Magistrate Tan Lun sighed slightly.
Huangyan County is close to Linhai County, and Linhai County has fallen. How can Huangyan County be spared? ! Huangyan County is different from Linhai County. Linhai County's terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it has abundant resources and people. However, Huangyan County's terrain is long and narrow, and the territory is mostly plains. There is no danger to defend the county seat. In addition, Huangyan County is not as rich as Linhai County, and the jurisdiction The number of people is also far less than that of Linhai County. Even if Linhai County fell, how could Huangyan County be spared? !
It was pitch dark, no light, no hope. Taizhou magistrate Tan Lun had no hope in his heart.
Sure enough, the next report from Tan Ma Xiaobing also confirmed what Tan Lun was thinking.
"Report to the Governor and General. Four days ago, the Japanese pirates leader Jiangmen led a raid on Huangyan County. Huangyan County was captured by the Japanese pirates before it could respond. Huangyan County Magistrate led the Japanese pirates to raid Huangyan County. A group of government officials stayed at the county government office for about a cup of tea, then the county government office was attacked by Japanese pirates, and the magistrate of Huangyan County was killed in the rebellion."
Tanma Xiaobing reported back.
Alas!
If it is what you think! Huangyan County fell!
No miracle at all!
The Taizhou magistrate sighed faintly, his face getting darker. After being hit and disappointed many times, his whole body was like an ice cube, exuding a thick air of coldness, making the subordinate officials next to him feel like Winter Day.
Soon, shortly after the horse detective left after reporting, there was another rapid sound of horse hooves outside.
Another scout has arrived.
"Report to the magistrate, the general, the battle report in Xianju County." Tan Ma Xiaobing walked into the banquet and saluted Tan Lun, Yu Dayou and others.
Xianju County!
Only hearing the words Xianju County and not hearing the content of the battle report, Taizhou Magistrate Tan Lun sighed again.
In terms of defense, Xianju County is not as good as Huangyan County. Xianju County is notoriously easy to attack and difficult to defend in Taizhou Prefecture, and is a standard weak persimmon. In addition, Xianju County is right on the seaside and is on the front line of Japanese pirates' plunder. How could the Japanese pirates let such a soft persimmon go? Xianju County is doomed.
Thinking of this, Tan Lun sighed heavily.
Sure enough, Tan Ma Xiaobing's next report once again confirmed what Tan Lun was thinking.
“Five days ago, the Japanese pirate leader Tiejingang landed on the southeast coast of Xianju County. On that day, he marched straight and besieged Xianju County. The magistrate of Xianju County led his people to defend the city and held on for more than half an hour. In the end, they were outnumbered. The city gate was breached by Japanese pirates . The magistrate of Xianju County disappeared after the Japanese pirates broke into the city. Some people said that the magistrate of Xianju County escaped from the county through a secret passage, while others said that the magistrate of Xianju County had been killed by the Japanese pirates. "
Tanma Xiaobing investigated him. The news that arrived was reported by the coefficient.
Alas!
I wish I could be like Tiantai County and guess wrong again.
It's a pity that there is no turning point! Tiantai County's luck is rare! Xianju County fell without any accidents.
With a heavy sigh, Taizhou Magistrate Tan Lun waved his hand and ordered the soldiers to go down and have a meal.
Taizhou Prefecture has seven counties under its jurisdiction. War reports have now been reported from five counties. Only Tiantai County among the five counties was lucky enough to survive. The remaining Linhai County, Ninghai County, Huangyan County and Xianju County were all destroyed by Japanese pirates. Captured.
Only Taiping County and Jingnan County, the southernmost counties, have not yet received reports of the Japanese invasion.
To be honest, Taizhou Magistrate Tan Lun had no hope at all for the two counties of Taiping and Jingnan, especially Jingnan County. If Tan Lun, the prefect of Taiping County, still has the slightest hope, then Tan Lun, the prefect of Taizhou, has no hope at all for Jingnan County.
Tan Lun knew very well that the city walls of Jingnan County were low, in disrepair, and seriously damaged. After being soaked by rain in recent years, they were even more damaged. What was most disappointing was that the walls of Jingnan County It is a place of right and wrong, and an ominous place. Six magistrates have died in five years, and the new magistrate has Zhu Ping'an just took office a month ago. He is only fifteen or sixteen years old. He is terribly young, came from the imperial examination, and lacks experience.
Just when Tan Lun was thinking, there was another rapid sound of horse hooves. After a sound of footsteps, another scout came.
"Report, report to the governor and general, battle report of Jingnan County." (End of this chapter)
