Chapter 1501 Where are King Qin’s reinforcements?
After being humiliated, Hu Zongxian clenched his fists. He was angry, angry and disappointed. However, because the Cherry Orchard had suffered such a heavy defeat before, he did not have the confidence to retaliate, so only a classic Chinese curse came to mind: Zhuzi , shortcomings and strategies!
Just when Hu Zongxian was disappointed, a sonorous and powerful voice sounded not far away from him, which lifted his spirits.
"My lord, I am going to ask you to lead your three hundred elite men out of the city to exterminate this group of heinous Japanese pirates!"
This sound was deafening, and it was rare in the panic.
Hu Zongxian turned around and saw Yu Dayou asking Zhang Jing, Eunuch He and Duke Wei to fight.
Fortunately, General Yu is such an understanding person! He understands the situation, knows the military affairs, and is brave enough to defeat the three armies! Hu Zongxian couldn't help but praise in his heart.
"No! You must not!"
As soon as Hu Zongxian finished speaking, an official stood up and stopped him with a painful voice, like a mourning concubine, "Master Hu led more than a thousand fully armed elites The soldiers who dared to fight and waited for work in the cherry orchard were all defeated by the Japanese pirates. They almost couldn't come back! General Yu, you only led 300 people down, how could you have What a chance of winning! If you, General Yu, make any mistakes, it will be a fatal blow to the defense of the city. Mr. Hu's Cherry Orchard Dahuan has already greatly damaged morale. If you lose another battle, how can you defend the city! "
"That's right, you can't do it, you absolutely can't do it! You can't make the same mistake as Mr. Hu."
Many officials echoed the sentiment.
If it’s not possible, it’s impossible. Why do you keep mentioning me over and over again? ! Which pot won’t be opened? Hu Zongxian's teeth were almost broken. It felt like being pulled out and whipped to death again and again!
Under the remonstrance of many officials, Zhang Jing adopted the opinions of the majority and did not agree with Yu Dayou to go out of the city to fight the Japanese pirates. He comforted Yu Dayou with kind words and asked Yu Dayou to stick to the city wall and resist the Japanese pirates.
“Alas!”
Hu Zongxian sighed and could only watch the Japanese pirates show off their power below the city. From time to time, they would approach and fire arrows and fire cannons at the city. Although the casualties on the city were very small, the total number of casualties was small. There were less than ten people, but the panic increased suddenly.
Finally, the panic in the city reached an uncontrollable level, and there were signs of collapse. Zhang Jing discussed with Eunuch He, Duke Wei and other senior officials for a while, and after consulting Yu Dayou and other guard generals for their opinions, he issued several urgent orders:
“Recruit the people and take turns guarding the city at the thirteen main city gates! "
"Open the arsenal and distribute swords, guns and shields to the people defending the city!"
"Those who climb down the city wall without permission will be killed without mercy!"
Soon, the people in the city will be killed! They were mobilized, voluntarily or forced to go to the city wall, and picked up the long knives and spears distributed to help defend.
The movement on the city was quickly noticed by the Japanese pirates below!
"Sanbanro, look, the people have been mobilized to defend the city! Can we send a signal to make Matsushita cooperate to seize the door?" Nabeshima Naoman excitedly came to Matsuura Sanbanro, He asked with an eager look on his face.
"Straight male general, please be patient. Ming Dynasty has just recruited the people to defend the city. Panasonic and the others may not sneak into the city gate to help defend. Give them more time. There is only one chance. It must be absolutely sure." !”
Matsuura Sanbanro shook his head slightly and explained to Nabeshima Naoman softly.
"円西, it makes sense." Hearing this, Nabeshima Naoman nodded vigorously, feeling that Matsuura Sanbanro's words made sense.
"General Straight Man, I have just carefully observed the defenses of the city gates of the Ming army. I found that the Yingtian Ande Gate city wall was built narrower than other city gates, and the space is limited. The Ming army can place limited defenders, and the Ande Gate gate is older. If there is an opportunity, we might as well use the Ande Gate as a breakthrough!" Matsuura Sanbanro pointed to the Ande Gate in the distance and suggested to Nabeshima Naoman after some analysis.
"Yes, I noticed it just now. Then choose Andemen as the breakthrough point." Nabeshima Naoman nodded.
"In this case, why don't we tentatively attack Andemen, put pressure on the Ming army, and make the Ming army focus on recruiting people to help defend Andemen, so that Panasonic and others can also help defend Andemen. Create opportunities. ”
Matsuura Sanbanro suggested to Nabeshima Naoo.
Nabeshima Naoman adopted Matsuura Sanbanro's suggestion without hesitation and summoned all the Japanese pirates.
"Gentlemen, the capital of the Ming Dynasty is very close at hand. We will be the Yamato warriors who have the best hope of conquering the capital of the Ming Dynasty! Success is very close at hand, and I hope you will die! After success, the wealth and status will exceed your imagination! Now, we are just one step away from success! Next, we will pretend to attack Andemen to create opportunities for Panasonic. Remember, this is It was a feint attack, not to seize the gate, but to frighten the Ming army! The Ming army set up a large number of iron cannons and crossbows on the city wall. You should be more careful. On the basis of protecting yourself, you used long bows and If the iron cannon kills a few Ming soldiers, it's a success!"
Naoshima Naoman shouted to the Japanese pirates emotionally as if he was beaten to death.
"Hey!" All the Japanese pirates bowed their heads and accepted the order.
"Okay, follow me and charge!" Naoshima Naoshima waved his Japanese sword and took the lead to kill Andemen.
“Kill me!” A group of Japanese pirates followed Nabeshima Naoman, yelling ferociously, and headed towards Andemen!
The number of Japanese pirates is limited, and every move they make is realized by the Ming army. Whenever the Japanese pirates move, the Ming army will notice it.
The Japanese pirates had only run for more than ten meters when Yu Dayou determined the target of the Japanese pirates. He shouted and pointed at several generals, "The Japanese pirates are attacking the city. The target is Andemen. You, You, you, and you, each with a sentinel horse, follow me quickly to reinforce Andemen!" Send troops to reinforce Andemen.
“Don’t save your arrows, don’t worry about whether they are accurate or not, just shoot them under the city!”
“The Japanese pirates are very skilled in archery, please pay attention to avoid them when shooting! Shield soldiers, pay attention at all times! Protect the archers!”
“Collect rolling stones and wood to brew golden juice”
"Send gunners from the nearby Xiao Ande Gate and Fengtai Gate to reinforce Ande Gate!"
"Where are the artillery, fire two cannons at the Japanese pirates!"
Hu Zongxian fired at Ande Gate He ran out of the door and gave orders one after another.
As the Japanese pirates attacked Andemen, the panic on the city wall increased again, becoming a panic and chaos.
“Damn it, who just said that the Japanese pirates only dared to show off their power under the city and did not dare to actually attack the city?!”
"That's right, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand! No one will beat you, you are dumb!"
The officials on the city wall saw the Japanese pirates going straight to Andemen, and their faces turned pale with fright. They looked at Hu Zongxian, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai.
Yes, Hu Zongxian did say something similar just now.
But
Hu Zongxian gritted his teeth and took a deep breath. He had already scolded you in his heart, you idiot. I saw that you were scared to death, so I went out of my way to comfort you. Do you understand white lies? If I hadn't comforted you, you would have fainted for the third time! Treat your good intentions like a donkey’s liver and lungs!
"Where are King Qin's reinforcements? Didn't I ask you to send reinforcements to various places?"
Seeing that the Japanese pirates were heading towards Andemen, but there was no sign of reinforcements outside the city, Zhang Jing couldn't help asking with a dark face. Officials of the Ministry of War.
"It's been sent out. I'll send it out as soon as your Excellency orders it! To be sure, we sent it out twice in every place, and sent out a hundred cavalry." The Ministry of War official replied aggrievedly.
Hearing this, Zhang Jing’s face turned even darker. (End of this chapter)
