Warring States Eagle

Chapter 503 Siege Weapon

Just when Ujiu Shengding exclaimed, the Luo family's army on the road where Zheng Liang was located had already entered the harbor of the Five Islands Navy.

Although the Five Islands navy had some ships on guard outside, but when the Luo family suddenly attacked, they were either busy collecting tolls in farther waters or hid on some small islands in the Five Islands to rest. They didn't even have the chance to go back and report the attack by the Luo family's navy.

When the Luo family's sailors rushed into the harbor without warning, most of the Five Islands sailors were still resting in the wooden houses on the shore.But in the bay, there are more than [-] Guan ships and dozens of small boats, and even a lot of merchant ships. This is about half of the ships in the Wudao Navy, and the rest of the ships are distributed in Around the Goto Islands and at the harbor outside Shiroyama Castle on the Ukushima side.Zheng Liang had sent people posing as passing businessmen to check out all this information a few months ago.

Seeing so many boats, Masatora Tao, who is the leading general, laughed loudly and said, "I didn't expect to encounter so many live fish today, I'm afraid I'm going to make a fortune, everyone, kill them for me, the country will My lord has sent a message, after conquering this place, not only will you have military merits, but you will also be rewarded with an extra bucket of rice." Live fish, a slang word circulated by pirates, generally refers to merchant ships with a lot of money.Now the Luo family not only has to deal with the Wudao sailors, but also the merchant ships moored here. Let these merchants know that they would rather pay some berthing fees to berth at the special port of the Luo family than to berth elsewhere. Otherwise, they will be attacked by Luo's family.

There must be a brave man under the reward, and rice is equivalent to the precious food of abalone and shark's fin in later generations.Now the lord of the country said that not only can he get military merit normally, but he will even reward him with rice.This is a huge sum of money for soldiers.They were very excited.The psychology of resistance due to the need for a big battle in the cold weather has also changed. They all shouted in low voices, and clenched the weapons in their hands.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" At this time, the people in the bay realized that they had been attacked by surprise, so they all shouted.So the soldiers already on board immediately tried to take the initiative to sail to meet them.But they found that due to the small number of people on board, they couldn't start the boats in time. In the end, only three or four boats took the initiative to meet the Luo family's navy that was rushing into the harbor without fear of death.

"Hmph. Overestimate your own strength! Yu Jiushengding, I persuaded you at the beginning, but you put me under house arrest. You never thought that my family would be killed so soon? Hahaha!" Masatora Tianwei looked at it with disdain Several enemy ships that seemed to be sent to death said.The bad breath in my heart due to being under house arrest by the Five Islands navy has also dissipated a lot.

Just as Masatora Tao commanded the boats to rush into the harbor to attack the fleet of the Goto Navy that had not had time to adjust, the soldiers of the Goto Navy who were resting on the shore finally came to their senses. They picked up their weapons and rushed towards the ships in the harbor.There was chaos in the port for a while.

A soldier who just woke up, picked up his weapon and walked out of the house when he heard the noise outside, but he was shocked to find a group of neatly dressed soldiers appearing next to his wooden house.

This army is the sixth standing Ashgaru squad of Enjoji Nobuyoshi, Rashi Masamune and others.They followed Zhengliang's order, after approaching the five islands.They split into two groups with Masatora Tianwei's navy.Masatora Tao's water army served as an attacking force on the front, attracting the attention of the enemy on the shore.On the other hand, Enjoji Shinyin's squadron landed secretly at another location, and then joined forces with Masatora Tao's navy from behind to attack the enemy.

Now they just got out of the bushes and were about to go into battle, but happened to meet the soldiers of the Goto Navy who came out of the door, so Masamune Luo, who was the most experienced soldier, raised his sword and stabbed each other straight throat.Before that, Zheng Liang had already issued a message that as long as those who hid at home obediently, they would no longer chase and kill them, but those who were still outside with weapons, regardless of gender, age or age, could be killed.

Seeing Masamune Roshi's aggressive attack and wanting to kill him, the soldier of the Goto Sailor Army panicked before he understood what was going on, and tried to avoid the Taidao.

It's a pity that it's too late.The soldier immediately let out a scream of "Ah!", and died so badly that he couldn't die any more.Blood was still dripping from the Taidao in Luo Masamune's hand, the soldier's head had long since disappeared, and his body was hanging on a tree and no one cared about it.

"Go up!" Enjoji Shinyin and Rashi Masamune saw that Tao Masatora had started to seize the ship at the port ahead, so they immediately shouted, and led the five hundred standing ashigaru who followed behind them, holding weapons in their hands and lowering their heads. He rushed forward.

Sudden front and back attacks, the Wudao sailors who were trying to prevent the Luo family's navy from landing at the port were immediately beaten to the point of crying. The army also took the opportunity to control the ships of the Five Islands Navy moored in the harbor, and at the same time began to land to cooperate with the sixth standing ashigaru squadron on the shore.

The sound of fighting resounded throughout the five islands waters.

Yujiu Shengding and Yujiu Chunding and others who also came here after hearing that their family was attacked were lying on a section of the city wall and saw the sound of killing outside the city, their faces were gloomy. They saw that the Luo family's attack seemed to be a naval force And the ashigaru attack at the same time, it is obvious that the Roche family is attacking them with all their strength.

Yu Jiushengding's face looked a little blue. Once Jiangchuan City fell, he would be in a difficult situation, and now even if he wanted to escape, it was impossible. Once the navy was defeated by the opponent, he would even flee outside the city , There is no way to escape from the island.

Yu Jiuchunding on the side also said with a bad expression at this time: "My lord, the opponent is obviously coming prepared! The opponent has already invested so much troops in attacking this place, if the situation is also the same on the other side of Chengshan City, I'm afraid it will come soon." There is no time to come to the rescue."

"No...won't it?" After hearing Yu Jiuchunding's words, Yu Jiushengding immediately said in a little panic.But his tone of voice was obviously lacking in confidence.

"Hey! My lord, at the beginning, my younger brother persuaded you not to listen to the so-called promise of the Dayou family, but you didn't listen. After the Dayou family's attack on the Luo family failed, even though you listened to my younger brother's persuasion, you sent someone to express to the Luo family. Apology and goodwill. After getting the understanding of the Luo family, you can't relax your vigilance against the Luo family, but... hey!" For this elder brother who has brought prosperity to the family and is becoming more and more complacent, Ujiu Chun is determined. There is nothing to say.

"Didn't I already follow your original order and just send the navy to the sea border of the Luo family, and take further action after getting the exact news of the progress of the Dayou family? Besides, after my family withdrew the troops, I was also persuading you I will send someone to take the initiative to apologize to the Luo family and make friends!" Yu Jiusheng said innocently.

"Hey! My lord brother, my brother's original suggestion was to wait and see instead of sending troops, but you finally sent a navy to invade the sea area of ​​the Luo family. This is equivalent to declaring war on the Luo family! Besides, you still listened to me The slanderous words sent by the envoys sent by the Otomo family put the envoy of the Luo family, Masatora Tiano, who has always had a good personal relationship with the family, under house arrest. Such a big offense, do you think that just an apology can make the Luo family rest? It is because of this that my younger brother told you to strengthen your vigilance against the Luo family. But you... hey!"

"This... this, Erlang, what do you think is the best thing to do now?" Facing his younger brother's words of accusation, Yu Jiusheng decided that he had done something wrong this time, and now is not the time to continue arguing. So he finally asked Ujiu Junding who had always acted as his military adviser.

Just as Ujiu Shengding and Ujiu Junding were discussing how to deal with the crisis, Zhengliang also officially set foot on the land of the five islands.

"At Nagasaki Fukuda City, the military division is waiting there with a large number of logistics troops. You immediately lead the Dutch fleet back to pick them up." Zheng Liang ordered his retainers.To be honest, Zheng Liang was quite looking forward to this siege battle, because this time in addition to the ladder, Weapon Workshop invented another siege tool.This time is just to test the actual combat effect.
