A knife in love

Chapter 1049

Before Yin Butou could speak, Master Feng said: "Everyone knows that if the Japanese pirates succeed, not only their lives will be lost, but also the people in Xiuwu County will suffer. Our parents, wives and children are all in the city, we must not let them Did they die tragically at the hands of the Japanese pirates? Because everyone risked their lives, we must not let the Japanese pirates occupy Xiuwu County!"

After listening to Master Feng's words, Yin Butou nodded.It's just that his face was deeply worried, and he said to Li Qiufeng: "The Japanese pirates are several times more than us, and look at their appearance, they are all well-trained, and they seem to be bastards who have fought in war. We brothers I have never seen such a battle before, but I barely resisted the Japanese pirates' attack with a single breath, but I know how strong I am. If we continue to fight like this, we won't be able to resist for a long time. If there is no way to wipe out or drive away all the Japanese pirates Let's go, I'm afraid that if we all die in this temple, Xiuwu County will still be lost..."

When Yin Butou said this, his voice trembled, and he couldn't continue for a while.Master Feng whispered on the side: "Lord Li, when will all the lords of Jin Yiwei come to help?"

Li Qiufeng felt a little embarrassed.Unexpectedly, Zhang Hao was an undercover agent of Japanese pirates, so he lost contact with Xu Yingyang.I was caught in a bitter battle in the Town God's Temple, I'm afraid Jin Yiwei didn't know the situation in the city at all, let alone when they would come to help.But if he told the truth, Catcher Yin, Master Feng, and the police officers from Luoyang prefect's yamen and Xiuwu county magistrate's yamen would be extremely disappointed.At that time, I am afraid that before the Japanese pirates attack, these tolerance officers will immediately scatter in frustration, and will inevitably be slaughtered by the Japanese pirates.At this time, we can only boost morale, and we must not let everyone down.So Li Qiufeng thought about it for a while, and then said: "I don't know when Jinyiwei will come to help. But they must be lying in ambush to the left, waiting for the Japanese pirates to show their weaknesses, and then they will come to help us."

After listening to Li Qiufeng's decisive words, Yin Butou and Master Feng breathed a sigh of relief.At this time, the sky had already darkened, and the strong wind swept the goose feathers and heavy snow, hitting everyone's faces like covering the sky and covering the earth.During the fierce battle just now, everyone was sweating profusely.At this moment, he stopped fighting, sweat condensed, and was blown by the cold wind, making everyone shiver with cold.Many people rubbed their hands and stamped their feet, and some cursed softly.

Just now the Japanese pirates retreated one after another, Liu Shengzong Yan was annoyed, but he and Shidaozhu are allies, and this time he has to rely on Shidaozhu's Fusang warriors to seize Fengmen Village, so naturally he can't shout like he did to Monk Guangzhi go.So he walked up to Island Master Shi, and said: "Master Island Master, we are about to win the battle, and we cannot give these Han people a chance to breathe. As long as we work harder, we will surely kill all of these Han people After these people died, not only the gold and silver treasures in Fengmen Village belonged to the island owner, but the county town was also in the hands of the island owner. The gold and silver in the city, as well as the women, naturally belonged to the island owner Enjoy."

Master Shi Dao saw that his subordinates had already retreated and did not make contact with the enemy for the time being, but he was also relieved.It's just that when he saw the corpses of seventy or eighty of his subordinates lying on the ground, his heart ached again.When he was in Fujian in the past, he often led his subordinates to fight fiercely with officers and soldiers, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, never suffered such a big loss.Thinking of the southeast coast, besides my own group, there are five Fusang pirate teams.The leaders of these pirates are all extremely difficult to mess with, and they have always had the heart of annexing other bandits.This time I formed an alliance with Liusheng Zongyan because I wanted to use this to win a large amount of gold and silver treasures, and then I could spend money to build a big ship, and then buy giant cannons to fight against other pirates.In his heart, the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were all people with a life of wine and food, but the other pirates who were also Fusang people were the enemies he was most worried about.It's just that the matter was far from successful. Nearly a hundred of his subordinates had already died in battle. How could he not be frightened?

When Liu Sheng Zongyan spoke to him, although his tone was very polite, he still ordered him to attack the main hall.Master Shi Dao was upset, thinking to himself of your sweet talk, wanting me to work my life for you.But it is my subordinates who are fighting to the death with these Han people, and your own people are left behind.Hmph, you want to borrow my knife to kill people, but don't do me any favors, do you really think I'm a fool? !

Thinking of this, Shidao Master deliberately pretended to be heartbroken, and said to Liu Sheng Zongyan: "Your Excellency Liu Sheng, it's not that my subordinates don't work hard, it's just that the other party is difficult to deal with. You also saw the situation just now, we Almost 100 of his subordinates died, and we didn't take advantage of it. We had to take advantage of the opportunity of the enemy's retreat to regroup for another battle. Otherwise, we would be mixed with the enemy. Although we have a large number, we cannot occupy We have the upper hand. Now that we have formed our formation, we will not be as embarrassed as before when we fight against the enemy."

Liu Sheng Zongyan said: "The island master's army is well-trained, I admire it very much. But when I look at the formation of these warriors under my lord, it is clearly an army formation that only defends but does not attack. Could it be that the enemy did not attack the courtyard , can we just wait here?"

Master Shi Dao said: "Your Excellency Liu Sheng, although the enemy is like loose sand, they are very powerful fighting alone. My subordinates form an army, it is a helpless way. Your Excellency Liu Sheng, don't worry, I think the enemy will definitely They won't last long, and they will attack again. As long as they confront our army, no matter how high their martial arts are, they will definitely be killed by us. It's better for us to wait for work than to fight with them."

Liu Sheng Zongyan shook his head and said: "Master Island Master, they are deliberately delaying time with us. Right now in this temple, we do have the upper hand. But Lord Master, don't forget that this is not Fujian, but It is the hinterland of the Central Plains. Although this small city is inconspicuous, it is not far from Luoyang and Kaifeng. Moreover, there are officers and soldiers stationed outside the city. If we delay and the officers and soldiers notice, the cavalry from Luoyang and Kaifeng will arrive here within a day And the garrison outside the city can kill us in an instant. At that time, not only will our previous efforts be in vain, but it will be extremely difficult for us to return to the southeast coast. Please don't hesitate, Lord Island Master, to order the attack on the enemy immediately .”

Island Master Shi shook his head like a rattle drum, and despite Liu Shengzongyan's urging, he only said that he must form an formation with his subordinates to lure the enemy to attack, and he must not rush forward rashly, lest he be taken advantage of by the enemy.Speaking later, Master Shi simply said to Liusheng Zongyan: "Your Excellency Liusheng, if you want to wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop, you might as well order your subordinates and those monks to attack, and I will lead someone to stabilize your position for Your Excellency Liusheng. Wait until Your Excellency Liusheng You're done, we captured Fengmen Village, and I can distribute some more gold and silver to you."

Liu Shengzong was furious in his heart, looked at Master Shi's round face, and secretly called him stupider than a pig.It's just that he also knows that if he wants to accomplish this, he must not offend Shidao Master.Otherwise, relying on the thirty or forty assassins from the Liusheng family and the dozen or so apprentices of Monk Guangzhi, it would be tantamount to daydreaming to annihilate the enemy in one go.I'm afraid that at that time, Li Qiufeng and others will rush forward, and they will become ghosts under the enemy's sword instead.So he suppressed the anger in his chest, and said to Island Master Shi: "Since this is the case, Lord Island Master can let his subordinates rest for a while. However, if the enemy does not come to attack, we must take the initiative to attack. We must not delay for too long. "

Island Master Shi was already annoyed by Liusheng Zongyan's urging, and before Liusheng Zongyan finished speaking, he nodded indiscriminately.Immediately, he called his two little bosses over and asked them to light a fire to keep the subordinates warm.Liu Sheng Zongyan was shocked, and hurriedly shouted: "My lord, this is absolutely impossible! These enemies and their reinforcements have long agreed that they will use fire as a sign to attack us from both sides. If a fire is lit in the temple, the temple will be destroyed. When the enemy reinforcements from outside see it, they will immediately come to help. At that time, we will be attacked by the enemy. Not only will our original advantages be wiped out, but we will also be surrounded by the enemy in the Temple of the City God and become a turtle in a urn, ready to be slaughtered. For this matter, we have already burned the hall with rockets, why wait until this time to fight fiercely with them?!"

Master Shidao looked indifferent, and said in his mouth: "We have been tossing around in the temple all afternoon, but we haven't seen any reinforcements. In all likelihood, the enemy has set up a suspicious formation to deceive us. If we don't Lighting a fire to keep warm, my subordinates are all frozen, what are you doing?!"
