open sea

Chapter 380 Rewards
The name Hyakutake Kenkan is just like Arima Harujun, it's a title party.

He didn't break through the formation of mandarin ducks with an inch soldier in his hand, covered his body with a piece of armor and was stabbed all over by a big moso bamboo, but he did have impressive bravery, and this bravery made him a lucky one.

After all, compared with those who carried naginata and Taisao to attack the mandarin duck formation, Bai Wuxian and his luck were much better. In hand-to-hand combat, those people died the worst.

The fighting seemed to break out in an instant, and within a few breaths, a row of Japanese soldiers fell in front of the mandarin ducks. Wolf sticks, boring handles, long spears, and short knives, there was always one who could overthrow them.

The group of people lying on the ground may not all be dead, many of them were just cut by wolf traps, without big armor or full protection, they would leave inch-deep scars on their bodies at the beginning of contact, a little bad luck , can cut a few tendons.

After all, there were only a few who could avoid the wolf trap and their own guns after the battle, and most of them rolled and screamed in front of the battle.

It's not that they want to yell in such a disrespectful manner, warriors have the dignity of warriors, and men have the masculinity of men... It really hurts too much.

In the several hundred households each occupying the formation, looking around, they almost got the same results after the first battle. They did not reduce their numbers at all. At this time, the lack of commanding ability of the subordinate generals was reflected. Originally, it was only the Nanyang Banner Army General Banner Officials, they don't yet have the talent to lead the army alone, and each orders to move forward with forgetfulness.

Five hundred households have fronts and backs, which makes a gap in the originally unbreakable formation, but no one can grasp this fleeting opportunity.

The general Bai Wuxian was still rolling all over the floor because of the pain, and the pain was even more painful because of the rolling all over the floor, how could he have time to take care of them?
Not to mention the lower-level warriors, this group of people rushed the most violently just now, and now the damned are almost dead, and those who survived with thick armor are now in the most pain all over their bodies, and everyone feels lingering fear when they see the big black wolf. Dare to rush again.

There were a few knowledgeable ashigaru shouting for the gap in the enemy army, but they had no appeal. When the samurai masters found out, all the ministries and families also found out the problem, and the battle formation was closed.

When the enemy was in fear, the gunman and the killer stepped forward together. The killer cut off the head, and the bird gunman raised the gun over his head with a long card, and released the spear ashigaru within ten steps to the samurai's last dignity— - With such a distance, their gun skills are obviously very closely related to the True Lord of the Dragon and Tiger Profound Altar.

The leaders of each formation slammed and blared, directly smashing the barriers of Bushido. The Hyakutake Ken looked left and right and saw that there were only a hundred or ten remnants of defeated generals around him. The ashigaru reinforcements retreated quickly.

The weird posture is mainly due to the hands, and there are too many wounds to cover anywhere.

The Xianglong flag fluttered in the fields of Hirado Island, and before Chen Bazhi even opened fire to bombard the enemy troops who were expected to outflank the two wings, he saw cheers from all the troops of the former army like a tsunami. The artillery fired and fired the command flag to let the flag army rescue.

The battle of the large army is over, but there is still a hundred households next to his mother who are struggling, so no one cares about it?

Amidst the roaring artillery fire, several hundred households retreated and looked at the commander's banner, only to realize that on their right wing, one hundred, no, it was no longer a hundred households, and four mandarin duck formations of less than ten people were surrounded by dozens of enemy troops with ashigaru and The attack of a hundred archers retreated steadily, and they were already retreating hundreds of steps away from them, so that the Japanese sergeants who killed Xing did not see the fact that their general had retreated.

There is no suspense, the field on the left wing and the banner army fighting out from the forest on the right flank reached an outflanking. The bird gun team fired guns from the sides of the enemy's abdomen and back, and dozens of mandarin ducks rushed to kill them. battle.

Seeing the enemy's retreat, Chen Bazhi ignored the repeated proposals of pursuit by his subordinates who had just tasted the big victory, and waved his hands to order his subordinates to rest on the spot. The artillery gathered together to find a high point to build an artillery position, and counted the heads.

Takanobu Matsuura in Kusano Castle is not a fool, he saw clearly the one-sided battle in the field, Naoshima Naoshige ordered his men to protrude from the castle to the west for less than half of the reinforcements, and the people behind were all chased by the Matsuura family Samurai entangled.

Especially after the ashigaru brigade was defeated by the Banner Army, the Matsuura family even sent a group of horse-riding warriors to dismount with iron cannons, blast off their horses for a while, and then jump on horses with knives and guns, matchlock guns, or short soldiers and bows in the city. The Japanese pirates also returned to their ferocious nature. Although they were rare even with humble belly, they were able to chase and kill those Ryuzoji samurai with their swords, and completely defeated the army led by Naoshima Naoshige.

Of course, although they hacked lively, after all, one chased and the other fled, and the gains in a short while were not as good as Chen Bazhi's flag army fighting hand-to-hand for a moment.

Chen Bazhi was obviously not as happy as his subordinates, the meritorious officers under his command reported the battle deaths, and did not take the pursuit of death and northward pursuit seven or eight miles away as a matter at all, so the ten subordinates and hundreds of households were called together to reprimand them.

"Let's not talk about the three hundred households and the artillery team in the forest. You six hundred households and five hundred households killed three people in total, and one hundred households killed 55 people!" Chen Bazhi was rescued and picked up in disgrace Bai Hu, who came back with a life, said to the other five people: "From the beginning of the war, we can attack and defend each other. His banner army is afraid of being bombarded, how about you?"

"The cannon can only kill more than ten people, and the rest is your fault. You didn't lead the soldiers to keep up with your comrades, so you were intercepted; Only when the wounded soldiers let the flag army be slaughtered will they be defeated."

After training the others, Chen Bazhi gave a few words to Baihu, who suffered the most casualties. He knew that this was already an excellent result, but he didn't want to praise his subordinates. Go on; 370 taels of merit for a head is amazing, and the meritorious officer has divided the merits according to the small flags, so don't expect to be like Qi's army with a head of 30 taels."

"There are only so many real Japanese pirates in the southeast. Now there are real Japanese everywhere. In the future, there will be battles. One head will be five taels. If there is no death in battle, the whole collar will be awarded. If there is a death in battle, the reward will be deducted. The small flags will be distributed according to military law. Temporary Remember the merits, and transfer silver from Luzon in a few days."

"There will be battles in the future. The armor of each banner army, mail armor, double-sided breastplate, iron hat, waist knife and hand gun, strong bow and poisonous crossbow, Ryukyu will send the price list in a few days. Your banner army wants to change armaments Yes, according to the price list, you will be deducted from the reward. If you have a good armor, you can kill more enemies in battle, and if you kill more enemies, you will have more silver taels before you can be promoted to rank."

"This battle was fought with difficulty. In the future, half a hundred households will be lowered to the general banner. Hirado will set up a guard post in the future, and there will be no shortage of official positions. Go back and think about the gains and losses of this battle. One person writes a battle report, and tomorrow and two days after dinner, there will be no singing of triumphs, and the flag officer and flag army will communicate for half an hour."

"It's all gone, wait for the princes of Hirado to send someone."

The crowd dispersed, and Chen Bazhi looked at the distant mountains with his arms folded. His father did not give him the right to transfer money, and he did not receive any rewards for military exploits except military pay, but as long as something happened, he could transfer armaments.

So he had to encourage the Banner Army to try to exchange all the rewards for armaments, which he had been thinking about for a long time.

In the fields near Kusano Castle on Hirado Island, the young Ming general imitated his adoptive father's gesture of grinding his beard, but in fact he only touched his smooth chin and muttered to himself.

"When all their armaments are replaced, the young master should have mines in his hands, right?"
