Great Song Pirate

Chapter 559 The Death of a Loyal General
The exhausted guy finally recovered his breath at this time, and continued: "Master General! A large fleet of skeleton troops suddenly appeared behind us, and they are starting to attack the rear of our fleet. Please, General!" My lord, hurry back and support them! My lord probably won't be able to stand up to them!"

After hearing what he said, Muto was completely dumbfounded. After being stunned for a while, he suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the lapel of his chest and shouted: "How is it possible? How is it possible? You said that a large number of skeleton army ships suddenly came from behind. Are there any?" How much? Say it quickly!"

The Otomo's family who came to report the news looked at the hideous Muto in horror, and stammered: "I'm afraid... I'm afraid they must have at least... seventy or eighty boats! And they are all big boats." !"

Before he could finish his words, seeing Muto, he pushed him out with all his strength, rolled over heavily and lay on the deck of the ship building.

"Baga! We were fooled by the skeleton pirates! Baga! Damn skeleton pirates! Damn skeleton thieves! The number of them coming to us this time is far more than thirty or forty! We were fooled!" Muto Hirobumi finally understood the situation in front of him, his heart was filled with shock and anger, and he cursed loudly.

"My lord, my lord! Let's hurry back and face the battle! If it's too late, we'll be even more passive!" A retainer of Muto's family approached Muto Hirobumi carefully to remind him.

"Order all the ships to return immediately and turn around to face the Skeleton Army. Now is the time for us to be loyal to Yamato! Today we have no way out, unless we kill the Skeleton Army, otherwise we will be killed by the Skeleton Army! Everything If anyone dares to back off or run away, I will definitely kill his whole family when I go back!" Wu Teng didn't care whether his order would be fully conveyed to every ship, he jumped and shouted.

Muto commanded his messy fleet and began to turn around. After a long period of fuss, they finally started to turn back towards the way they came from. But at this time, they suddenly realized that they originally had the upper hand. After chasing for a while, when facing the main fleet of the real Skeleton Army, it has completely become a downwind position. The speed of the ship cannot be increased, and it is very difficult to even turn around.

After Xu Yi led the vanguard fleet through all the way, he saw through the binoculars the Japanese fleet gathering in the distance and turning around. After knowing that the Japanese had thoroughly figured out the situation, he put down the binoculars and said with a smile: "Gunners! Now you can show your power! Give me a hard beat! Beat up so hard that you can't even remember their last names!"

Just when Xu Yi ordered the fleet to fire, several feathered arrows flew from a Japanese ship on the side, and hit Xu Yi directly...

It turned out that the Japanese major on this boat had already seen from Xu Yi's boat that this boat was definitely a handsome boat of the Skeleton Army, and also saw Xu Yi's figure surrounded by many people on the boat tower, from the crowd's attitude towards him Xu Yi's identity was immediately confirmed by his attitude and his attire. This person is definitely the leader of the skeleton pirates, so he immediately braved the rain of arrows splashed from the crossbar and stood against the shield. They called a few archers, pointed at Xu Yi and shouted to them: "See that man with the cloak? He is the leader of the Skeleton Army. Let me shoot the arrows and shoot him to death. You will enjoy it in the future." Inexhaustible glory and wealth! Shoot him to death with an arrow!"

After hearing this, several Japanese archers immediately set their sights on Xu Yi, feeling secretly happy. If they can really shoot the leader of the skeleton army to death, then they will be prosperous in the future. The Skeleton Army might be defeated, so several people aimed at Xu Yi at the same time, gritted their teeth and fired arrows at the same time. Several feathered arrows almost passed the space between the two ships at the same time, and flew towards Xu Yi in unison.

Just as Xu Yi was focusing on the Japanese fleet that was gathering in front, these arrows flew not far from Xu Yi, because Li Bo was left on Tanegashima by Xu Yi this time to cooperate with Yang Zaixing's actions. He couldn't protect Xu Yi, so Cui Yan stood beside Xu Yi. He didn't dare to relax his protection for Xu Yi. Now they are in the enemy's formation, and the sky is full of flying arrows, so he dare not have No slack in the slightest, commanding operations is not his business, protecting Xu Yi's safety is what he needs to do most. As Xu Yi's captain of the guards, he has faithfully done what he should do.

So when the arrows aimed at Xu Yi were about to arrive, most people were shifting their attention to the cannons on the ship and didn't notice the sudden attack of arrows, but Cui Yan noticed it immediately The target they chose exclaimed: "My lord, be careful!..." Then they pushed Xu Yi aside with all their strength, and drew out his waist knife to block these arrows. He blocked two feathered arrows, but he couldn't block all the arrows after all. His body was shocked suddenly, and then he stepped back a few steps, then turned his head to look at Xu Yi, and shouted with all his strength: " Protect the lord!"

After Cui Yan finished his life, he fell down slowly on his back. Xu Yi was accidentally pushed away by Cui Yan just now. He staggered and stopped immediately. The scene of Yan's fall, couldn't help it, even his eyes were red, he rushed over with a brisk step, caught the body of Cui Yan who was falling, and looked intently, only to see three Japanese arrow feathers nailed to the ground. On Cui Yan's chest and abdomen, an arrow just hit Cui Yan's heart, so he was shocked: "Cui Yan...you..."

Cui Yan fell into Xu Yi's arms, seeing Xu Yi squatting beside him unscathed, a gratified smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he opened his mouth, and said weakly: "My lord, be careful! Cui Yan can't serve you anymore. It's gone!... Vomit..." Before he finished speaking, a stream of blood gushed out of his mouth, and his eyes began to slacken.

Now Xu Yi is impatient. Cui Yan was brought back by him in exchange for his blood. Accustomed to the days when Cui Yan was by his side, he was always able to carefully discover his own needs, and promptly and quietly did what he asked for, never asking him a second time. It can be said that he now feels that he can't do without Cui Yan who is loyal to him, but he didn't expect that in order to save himself today, he...

"Yang Ci! Where is Yang Ci? Tell me Yang Ci to come over and save Cui Yan quickly! Cui Yan! Cui Yan...don't give up, you will be fine, Cui Yan! Don't die! I order you not to Die! I want you to do things, a lot of things! Don’t die! Did you hear that? Don’t die! Without my order, you don’t die! Cui Yan, cheer up!..." Xu Yi yelled loudly to make people Quickly find Yang Ci, while shaking Cui Yan's body whose eyesight is beginning to slacken, he yelled with all his strength, trying to cheer Cui Yan up.

Maybe because he heard Xu Yi's cry, Cui Yan's eyes focused on Xu Yi's face again, with blood gushing out of his mouth, trying to say something to Xu Yi, but he opened his mouth a few times, But he couldn't say a word, so he turned his eyes to Daniel who was rushing over, stared at Daniel vigorously, raised his left hand, and pointed at Daniel and Xu Yi with all his strength.

Although Daniu is simple and honest, he still understood Cui Yan's meaning immediately. Cui Yan was telling him to protect Xu Yi's safety, so he replied with tears: "Brother Cui, don't worry, there is Daniel here, my lord It will be all right! Daniu will risk his life, and nothing will happen to the lord! Woohoo..." Before he finished speaking, Daniel began to cry.

Xu Yi hurriedly wiped the blood from Cui Yan's mouth, and shouted: "Don't move Cui Yan! Don't move, hold on! Yang Ci will be here soon! You have to hold on!"

Cui Yan saw that Daniel had already understood what he meant, so the corners of his mouth twitched a few more times, showing a gratified smile, then he closed his eyes, his head suddenly tilted to the side, and he didn't breathe anymore.

"Cui Yan...!" Xu Yi's heart-piercing roar sounded from the ship tower of the Zongheng. There was a roar, one after another roared.

Yang Ci, who was treating a brother injured by an arrow in the cabin below, received Xu Yi's order to call him, so he handed the wounded man over to a medical soldier beside him to treat the wound, and then quickly followed the anxious-looking man. The personal soldiers flew out of the cabin and ran to the top of the ship tower.

After boarding the ship building, he immediately saw Xu Yi who was squatting on the ground, hugging someone alone, so the crowd came to Xu Yi's side, and he immediately saw Cui Yan who had closed his eyes. He grabbed Cui Yan's wrist and felt his pulse, but he couldn't feel anything. Then he quickly checked Cui Yan's injury, and found a feathered arrow stuck in the center of Cui Yan's chest. On the knife, but fortunately his heart was a little crooked at that time, and he was not pierced by the knife. After Xu Yi transfused blood for him, he saved his life. But today, the arrow in Cui Yan's chest happened to be It shot at his heart, and it turned out that the arrow took Cui Yan's life.

After seeing this situation, Yang Ci gently shook his head at Xu Yi with tears in his eyes. At this time, the soldiers around him heard the news of Cui Yan's death, so many of them expressed their grief and cried. shouted.

Cui Yan is very loyal. Since he came to Xu Yi's side, he has gotten along well with these soldiers and took good care of these brothers. Even after becoming Xu Yi's guard, he has no airs towards these brothers. , plus he was a little older, and the soldiers respected him very much. Seeing Cui Yan died in Xu Yi's arms today, these soldiers all thought of Cui Yan's benefits to them, so they all showed sadness, some People cried on the spot.
