One Piece: In the Name of the Father

Chapter 229
Leaders like Megan and even the big slave traders had always thought that although the Xiaohe leaders in the eldest son town and the fourth son town had fewer troops, they did not expect that there would be so few.

And because of the disastrous defeats on these two battlefields, they thought that the total number of troops under the command of Gerald and Allen was estimated to be less.

This is all understandable, if you fail, can you not find a reason for yourself!
What was even more unexpected was that Matsurize had prepared [-] elite soldiers to wait for the Pirate Alliance to step into the trap from the very beginning!
If it weren't for the sake of appeasing people's hearts, [-] Xiaohe troops were dispatched to Gerald's and Allen's troops respectively. With twice the force advantage, Matsurizawa would have dared to wipe out the pirate coalition forces at sea.

Facts have proved that Gerald and Allen really don't need the [-] soldiers who came to assist them respectively.

Just outside Sunken Ship City, when Matsurize led the [-] Xiaohe Army to wait for the arrival of the Pirate Allied Forces, the eldest son town and the fourth son town also made new moves.

In view of the current shortage of troops in Megan's territory, and the situation of falling into the fear of defeat.

Leader Xiaohe seized the opportunity, and immediately ordered Gerald and Allen to start an annexation war against Megan Leader, launching a war to unify Songbai Island, no longer defensive counterattacks, and can take the initiative to attack.

In this way, Gerald and Allen led the [-] Xiaohe Army respectively, and marched towards Megan.

Megan's current territory is mainly divided into two parts, part of which is the area headed by its capital, Stewart City, and Stewart Port behind it, which is their old base.

And the other piece of land has a lot of land and population, which is not much different from the area of ​​Stewart City.

It is the land and population of the northern pioneering nobles originally annexed by Megan's collar.

The division of labor between Gerald and Allen is still very clear.

Based on the boundary they are in now, it is natural that Gerald directly invades the area of ​​Stewart City, and Allen will go to Stewart City to fight with Megan after conquering the territory of Megan in the north of Pine Island. Gerald joins.

Shipwreck outside the city.

"Boss, boss, there are a lot of enemy troops ahead!"

"how many people?"

"Much, much, much more than us?"

"Damn it, those slave traders who only know Bailey, damn it, what kind of intelligence news is this, so many people, how come they only know it now?"

"Boss, the army led by Xiaohe is just outside Sunken Ship City. It seems that they are waiting for us?"

"How come, we are a secret operation, how could they be prepared, how many people are there?"

"At least [-], more is possible!"

"Captain, what's wrong, leader Xiao He is so prepared, and there are so many people?"

"I could see something was wrong, they didn't listen to me, they only knew Bailey Bailey.

When I was at the Shipwreck Harbor early in the morning, I knew that the Shipwreck Harbor was captured so smoothly! "

"Brother, let's withdraw. If we can't win, we can defeat an enemy army that is more well-trained than us on land!"

"There's no rush, but you have to be prepared. Let the brothers know that if the situation is not right, we'll run away. No matter what treasures or beauties there are, life is the most important thing."

All the pirate groups of the Pirate Alliance knew of the existence of the Xiaohe Army in front, and also knew that the raids by themselves and others had been exposed.

Everyone and every force has their own ideas and prepared way out.

However, under the greed of most of the pirates, they walked towards Xiaohe Army outside Sunken Ship City without giving up.

When I walked in, I saw the iron armor of the [-] Xiaohe Army sergeants facing the reflection of the sun, which made them regret it.

How could it be possible to win this battle? The pirates are just a little more greedy, and they are not fools!
But without waiting for them a chance to repent, and without giving them a chance to escape, the [-] Xiaohe Army marched towards the Pirate Alliance with great strides.

"Archer forward, one volley, shoot!"

Ranked at the forefront of the [-] troops of the Xiaohe Army is the archer with the longest bow and arrow.

"Two salvos, shoot."

"Three salvos, shoot."

This time, the Xiaohe army led by Matsurize had 5000 archers in the army, and they shot [-] arrows for three rounds. This is not over yet.

At this time, the Xiaohe army and the chaotic pirate coalition army got closer.

"Archers back, musketeers forward!"

The voices of the messengers came and went, and the archers quickly retreated behind the melee units, while the musketeers, a new unit in Xiaohe's army, arrived at the front.

The Firearms Bureau of Xiaohe Territory has made great progress after acquiring the firearms master and industrial chain from the former King Territory.

Now Xiaoheling not only has a large number of self-made muskets, but also cannons.

It is only because the artillery is heavy and difficult to march, and it will not be officially installed in the whole army until a lighter artillery model is produced.

As for the musket, Matsurize knows its prospects, and sooner or later it will fully replace the archer.

It's just that it is currently limited by the shortage of some raw materials for making musket ammunition, and only a thousand musketeers are equipped.

They were all in the army led by Matsurize at this time.

It was also a three-shot burst, and immediately smoke and dust billowed on the battlefield.

At this time, the pirate coalition army can't be called an army at all. In fact, they didn't suffer much damage, and there were only 2000 people at most.

However, the Xiaohe army's mighty formation had scared them out of their wits.

Many pirate groups of 200 people have spread their feet and fled in the direction they came from the shipwreck port.

This group of rabble really wasted the deposits of the big slave traders. It is wishful thinking that these rabble can hold back the main force of Xiaohe Territory to alleviate the crisis of Megan Territory.

The [-] Xiaohe army only fired three rounds of arrow rain and three rounds of musket ammunition, and they haven't launched a general attack yet!
The pirate coalition army has already been defeated by itself. It was said before that the long-range attack of the Xiaohe army caused them more than 1000 casualties at most.

At this moment, the pirates were in a state of chaos, and the pirates who were scrambling to escape suffered thousands of casualties.

It is often the pirates who dislike the pirates in front of them who block their escape route, thus killing them.

And the pirates are vicious and vicious. Many pirate groups have grievances and entanglements with each other. At this time, they also settled their grievances on the way to escape.

Matsurize was stunned, and most of the sergeants under him were also stunned. They didn't expect this enemy to be so weak and full of ugliness.

Seeing this situation, Matsurize was not in a hurry to fight with them. He chased behind the Pirate Alliance Army, and when he encountered a group that wanted to be stubborn and resist the Xiaohe Army, he attacked the Pirate Group there.

Dead bodies littered the field all the way, and they chased until Shipwreck City was out of sight. At this time, the pirate coalition army was defeated, and the total number of people did not even reach 1.

Dead to die, surrendered to surrender, the Xiaohe army chasing behind took thousands of pirates as prisoners.
