At the beginning of the civil castle, the Ming God of War was a little panicked

Chapter 176 Chapter 172

In the formation of the Ming army, Li Zhen looked at the messy Japanese pirates with disdain in her eyes.

It is said that the Japanese pirates are extremely fierce in fighting power, and they thought today was a tough battle, so this is their ability?

Seeing that the opponent had fled in all directions, he decisively ordered to stop shooting.

"Everyone, bayonet!"

With so many people, if they run away, it will be difficult to chase them.

After the order was conveyed, the [-] Battalion stopped firing. Everyone took out the three-edged dagger from their waists, clicked it, and put it on the slot at the muzzle of the gun.

Kojima Yuzo couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw the Ming army suddenly changing tactics and charging forward with a flintlock gun.

Although he didn't know why the Ming army gave up long-range firepower, maybe it was really out of ammunition, or maybe it was for other reasons, in short, his chance came!

He pursed his lips tightly, and the grievance just now was swept away, but he didn't make a move easily, instead he was very calm.

Holding the knife in both hands, he saw the Ming army approaching. The overwhelming momentum made him unable to breathe...

In the blink of an eye, the opponent's vanguard is close at hand!
A trace of killing intent flashed across Kojima's three eyes, here we come!

His own knife is faster than the wind, and he can kill him with just one blow.

He started to move like a rabbit.

Staring at the few Ming soldiers rushing forward, a smile subconsciously formed on his lips, because these people would soon become the souls of his own sword.

"kill!"

In the blink of an eye, the long knife in Yuzo Kojima's hand brushed against the cold light, as fast as lightning...

when!
At this critical moment, his knife seemed to hit something hard.

It turned out that the opponent used a firecracker to block his own attack.

Kojima Yuzo clearly felt that the opponent was very strong, and that the firecracker was very strange, it was made of fine iron.

He had also seen firecrackers before, the firing end was made of refined iron, but the handle was made of wood.

If the gun handle is also made of fine iron, it will undoubtedly add a lot of burden to the gunner, and it is of no use at all.

Therefore, when he drew his sword, he aimed at the opponent's gun handle.

According to his expectation, this knife will cut off the handle and throat of the opponent at the same time, but...

puff!
puff!
At the same time that the opponent used the firecracker to parry his own knife, the two people on the left and right raised their guns and stabbed out at the same time, and then, they only felt a chill in their ribs!
It was a piercing coldness, as if it had fallen from the world to hell.

I am facing the wind and falling flowers...why...

"rush!"

"kill!"

Kojima Yuzo felt that his whole body had no strength, and his body was slowly weakening. Those Ming soldiers didn't even bother to look at him, and continued to charge forward with their bayonets raised.

They didn't seem to know that it was the famous Kojima Yuzo who fell beside them, because they couldn't see that there was someone under their feet, but when they stepped on it...it felt a little soft...

Kojima Yusan was stabbed in the ribs, but he didn't die. He clearly felt that after being trampled by countless people, the bones all over his body made the sound of shattering...

I... my bones...

Before completely losing consciousness, he suddenly realized that, in fact, he knew nothing about the Ming army.

A Ming soldier accidentally stepped on the wound on his left rib, Kojima Yuzo snorted involuntarily, bright red blood gushed out of his mouth, and his body twitched reflexively.

The man only glanced at it, and seemed surprised to find someone alive, then he raised his bayonet and stabbed heavily!
After completing this action, continue to rush forward.

Kojima Yuzo felt that life was passing by quickly. At this moment, he only had one thought...

why?
why?
Why is that?
The so-called death without peace probably means this...

The three thousand Ming troops rushed into the Japanese pirate formation like a tiger descending the mountain, and the next step was a one-sided massacre.

After the orthodox 1.5-style rifle is added with a bayonet, it is roughly [-] meters long, while the Japanese sword is roughly half a meter long, and the longest one will not exceed one meter.

In many cases, the opponent has already been pierced with several bloody holes by the three-edged dagger before they even get close.

What's more, the [-] Battalion is the main force trained by Zhu Qizhen himself, and the combat power of the elite among the elite is completely different from that of the officers and soldiers that the Japanese pirates usually face.

Looking at the one-sided battlefield, Li Zhen couldn't help sighing: "The name is not worthy of the name, it is vulnerable!"

This is not a deliberate ridicule, but damn, I hear people bragging about how powerful the Japanese pirates are all day long, what a beast!
I thought there would be a fierce battle tonight, and I could fight it to the fullest.

The [-] Battalion had been preparing for this battle for a long time.

Ever since he came back from Mobei, the emperor has already started preparations. All the [-] battalions have been replaced with orthodox fifteen styles, and targeted training has been carried out.

The soldiers had been practicing such an assassination move for two months.

Every day, a movement is repeated hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands of times...

Go forward, raise your gun, stab out.

Go forward, stab out again!
Such a simple and boring action has already penetrated deeply into the bones of everyone in the [-] Battalion.

However, a seemingly ordinary action, but the Japanese pirates who were killed wailed all over the place, crying for their father and mother.

I thought it was a tough battle, but now it seems that it is really vulnerable!

In fact, the reason why people are afraid of Japanese pirates is because Japanese pirates are desperate and cruel.

And because the Ming army was getting more and more relaxed, the guards in the south of the Yangtze River were no longer as brave as they used to be.

In terms of physical strength and combat effectiveness, or the ability to cooperate in combat, when the Japanese pirates encountered the regular army of the imperial court, they did not actually have an advantage.

It's just a group of thieves hanging alone overseas, can they really have enough to eat?

The horror of Japanese pirates is that they are not afraid of death and dare to rush forward, especially when fighting, they usually use some Japanese wandering warriors as pioneers, and these people play the role of sharp knives.

Most of these people know martial arts, and they are not afraid of death.

As the saying goes, those who are soft are afraid of those who are hard, and those who are hard are afraid of death.

The army of the imperial court is nothing more than just eating and drinking. Everyone has their own little calculations in their hearts. If they lose their lives for a single bite, it is really not worth it.

But the Japanese pirates are eating with their lives.

Therefore, whenever these wandering warriors like dead soldiers charged, most of the time, they could kill the Ming army and defeat them in one go.

They didn't know that today's Ming army was completely different from what they saw in normal times.

Whether it is shooting from a long distance or fighting in close quarters, the fighting power of this beast is too strong, so strong that it makes people desperate.

I saw them scattered and orderly, one by one, like the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves, holding firecrackers, stabbing randomly.

If you look carefully, you will find that this casual movement is by no means a random stab.

The angle, strength, and direction of each assassination are almost exactly the same.

The Japanese pirates kept falling, just like wheat, being harvested.

The scene was almost one-sided massacre.

The Japanese pirates finally realized, why didn't they run away just now?

I don't know who yelled that the army had no ammunition. Everyone guessed that they would fight back, but now they found that facing this army, they had no chance or chance of winning.

They also tried to adopt some tactics, through frontal attraction, side detours, or small groups of troops going around behind, but they all failed in the end.

Under the crushing of absolute strength, any tactics and tactics have failed.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

The Ming army was still advancing, and every time they stabbed a gun, they would shout loudly, with momentum like a rainbow.

On the beach, the sound of shouting and killing was loud, and other than that, there was the sound of crying father and mother.

The soldiers of the [-] Battalion suddenly discovered that only repeating a simple assassination action is not only effective, but also saves energy.

From the beginning of the battle to the present, they are still full of energy and always maintain the highest morale.

Countless Japanese pirates were stabbed to death with bayonets before they approached.

They wanted to charge up with swords, but facing countless military stabs, the result was only a few blood holes on their bodies.

There are blood-letting grooves on both sides of this triangular army thorn, no matter which part of the body is stabbed, it will cause a lot of bleeding, which will make people lose their fighting ability.

The originally high-spirited Japanese pirates finally felt hopeless.

What is the origin of these Ming soldiers, and why are they more ruthless than themselves?
I am living overseas, that is licking blood with a knife, to maintain my survival, with my head pinned to my trouser belt, so I have to work hard, but in front of this Ming army, it seems that it is meaningless not to work hard.

Some desperadoes even tried to fight back.

But...the only thing that greeted them was the shining triangular army thorns.

The Ming army was like a machine, with no expression on its face, and kept moving forward, but the murderous aura made people feel chills.

More than half of the Japanese pirate army had been killed or injured. They watched all this in horror, the defense line in their hearts finally collapsed, and then they started to retreat like crazy.

They usually have a lot of courage. The so-called courage is for the weak. They regard the soldiers and civilians of the Ming Dynasty as weak chickens, so they show their ferocious side, but when they really meet the strong, they instantly become docile sheep!

A group of people wailed and fled across the beach one after another, but at this time, only less than 5000 of the original [-] people remained.

Some people frantically chose a way to escape, and some people circled behind the Ming army and prepared to retreat to the sea, but they realized that most of the ships had been bombed when they reached the beach.

Only a few people snatched the landing boat, like frightened birds, rowed desperately towards the big ship.

On the beach, there are already corpses everywhere.

Boom!

Boom!

Suddenly, there was a huge explosion, and the few remaining boats by the sea, together with the people on board, were blown to pieces, and the sea was dyed red.

The Japanese pirates on the shore looked desperately at the wreckage at sea, then at the Ming army, and involuntarily dropped the sword in their hands.

Destroy it, hurry up!
People have even brought cannons, so what else are they shooting?
No matter how brave the Japanese pirates are, they are just a piece of loose sand. They have already suffered heavy casualties in the face of the firecrackers, and now they show their cannons again... But to be honest, where are the cannons?
Forget it, it doesn't matter.

Stop fighting, surrender...

When the last trace of will in their hearts was exhausted, everyone chose to give up their weapons and wait for the disposal of the Ming army.

Li Zhen looked at these so-called ferocious Japanese pirates with a dark face, all of them were sallow and emaciated, no different from refugees.

He didn't understand, just relying on these people, how could there be no peace along the eastern coast of Daming?
"Forgive me, my lord, forgive me!"

A Japanese pirate in his thirties knelt at Li Zhen's feet, trembling with injuries all over his body.

The clothes on him don't fit well, they seem to be very small, and the style is also very strange. If you look carefully, you will find that it is a woman's dress.

Li Zhen knelt down and asked, "Are you Han?"

The man hurriedly said: "Yes, the little Jiang Weishen is... a native of Zhenjiang, and after he had no way to survive, he went... to sea..."

"Why is there no way out?"

"Floods in the Yangtze River, my small family and fields were flooded, so... there was no way to survive..."

Li Zhen grabbed his collar and looked at it, then asked, "Is this a woman's dress?"

Jiang Weishen swallowed, and said, "Yes... yes!"

Li Zhen's expression was extremely ugly, and she slowly asked, "How is the owner of this dress?"

"She...she..."

Jiang Weishen's face was pale, as if thinking of that woman's fate, his eyes were full of horror.

The Japanese pirates raped and plundered, committed all kinds of crimes, that woman... the result can be imagined.

"You just tell me how she died?"

Jiang Weishen said tremblingly: "She... she... was killed by someone, a dozen people..."

Li Zhen immediately understood that these Japanese pirates are not as good as animals.

"Come on!"

Li Zhen gave an order, and immediately two soldiers stepped forward.

"My lord, please forgive me, my lord!"

Jiang Weishen seemed to realize something, lying on the ground, begging for mercy repeatedly.

Li Zhen stood up and said, "Chop off this man's limbs and throw him into the sea!"

"Yes!"

"Forgive me, please forgive me..."

Li Zhen took a deep breath and said, "When you were violent to her, did you ever think that this day would come?"

"The little one knows it's wrong, please forgive me!"

"Grace?" Li Zhen sneered, "Before she died, she must have asked you for mercy, right?"

"Please...please...ah!"

There was a hissing and lung-piercing howl, and a soldier cut it down with a knife. Jiang Weishen's arm was severed, and blood gushed out.

This soldier had also seen big scenes before. He cut off Jiang Weishen's limbs one after another with his knives.

How could Jiang Weishen bear such a crime, rolled his eyes, and passed out from the pain.

Immediately afterwards, the soldier pulled his hair and dragged him into the sea water.

"what--"

Jiang Weishen woke up from the coma. At this moment, he seemed to feel that his soul was being torn apart.

If there is hell, then the punishment of the eighteen levels of hell is nothing more than this!
After Li Zhen dealt with Jiang Weishen here, it was time to face the issue of captives.

"My lord, my subordinates have made a rough estimate. There are about 3000 Japanese pirate prisoners. How should we deal with them?"

Li Zhen glanced at the prisoners at the scene. In principle, if there is a war, the prisoners will not be killed.

For example, if the two countries are at war, the enemy troops on the battlefield surrender and stop fighting, but it can be dealt with according to circumstances.

However, the situation of these people is completely different. The sins they have done in the past are not simply thrown away.

After just one thought, a decision was made.

"There is no need for prisoners in this battle!"

"Yes!"

The [-] Battalion never asked the reason for the orders of the chief, but obeyed unconditionally.

Next, the sound of wailing, begging for mercy, and crying...the beautiful beach turned into a hell on earth.

The sea water has been dyed red, blending with the morning glow in the sky.
