Great Song Pirate

Chapter 579

After suffering a heavy blow from the Fuba army, Muto organized several consecutive interceptions on the road leading to Dazaifu, but the results were all utterly defeated, so that when he fled back to Dazaifu with only a mere 1000 people by his side. There were many soldiers, and the remaining more than 1 soldiers and horses were all defeated by the Fubo army in one day. Except for those who were killed, most of them turned into stragglers and fled in all directions.

Toshi Fujiwara looked at Yori Muto, who was covered in dust and fled back in embarrassment. He was furious at first, and then felt anxious for a while. If Muto said that he had tried his best, he had almost recruited a young man from the Chikuzen Kingdom, and he even sat in Hakata himself. Wan, resisting the Skeleton Army's invasion, although he was defeated, he can no longer blame him. Now he really knows why the Skeleton Army has come all the way, and it is like entering a land of no one in the countries of West Kaido, Muto With all the power of the whole country, Lai was defeated by the Skeleton Army in one day, which shows how terrifying the Skeleton Army is!

"You are so handsome! The Skeleton Army is probably far stronger than we expected! And when I led troops to stop the Skeleton Army at the pier, their firearms really made us unstoppable. The news from various places in the past is not false. There are also a large number of our countrymen in the skeleton army, acting as their vanguard, and these people have tattooed the word Fubo on their faces, and their identities can be recognized at a glance. These damned guys are really unforgivable! " Muto Lai said to Fujiwara Jun with a terrified look.

Toshiya Fujiwara had already heard about this matter, so he immediately ordered: "Anywhere in the future, any bastard who catches these tattooed faces will be killed on the spot, and there is no need to report it! Let me ask you, where is the skeleton army now?"

After Muto Rei was stunned for a moment, he immediately replied: "Reporting is too handsome, the skeleton army may appear outside the city soon!"

Fujiwara Jun gasped, the skeleton army moved a little too fast!They defeated their Japanese fleet at sea because their ships were strong and powerful, and their Japanese ships were not opponents at all. If they lost, they could be forgiven. But they are just a bunch of pirates, and they are so powerful on land. Woolen cloth?

While everyone was still in panic, a warrior ran in outside, knelt down and shouted: "Master Taishuai, the situation is bad! A large number of skeleton troops have appeared outside the city!"

Toshi Fujiwara finally couldn't sit still anymore, so he immediately took the generals in the city with him, climbed to the top of the south gate, and looked outside in the twilight, but everyone gasped again, and saw the blackness outside the city. Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in black and black armor are looking at the city of Dazaifu, and they are starting to set up camp five miles away from the city. It seems that they are really going to attack Dazaifu!

Everyone stood on the city, looking at the skeleton army outside, they felt chills in their hearts. In their minds, the skeleton army was just a bunch of pirates, at best they were a bunch of rabble with good weapons, but today After seeing the appearance of the Skeleton Army outside the city, they realized that they were very wrong. Not only were the Skeleton Army outside not a mob, on the contrary, at a glance, they knew that they were a rigorously drilled army. It's not very real from a distance, but they can clearly feel the soaring murderous aura.

After seeing the situation of the Skeleton Army, Fujiwara Jun felt that his palms began to sweat. Such an army looks like a pirate!In his impression, although there is no communication between Dahe Kingdom and Da Song now, according to the businessmen who travel between the two countries, the Song people are elegant and cowardly, without any viciousness, but how could these Song people be like this fierce?Fujiwara Shun couldn't figure out why, so he turned around and walked down the castle, and returned to the main hall of Dazaifu.

"Now that the Skeleton Army is approaching the city, what do you think is the way to retreat from the enemy?" Fujiwara Toshi asked the military officers kneeling below pretending to be calm.

A short, stout general with a fierce face leaned forward and replied: "The general thought that now that the skeleton army has just stationed outside the city, we should take advantage of its unstable foothold and launch a surprise attack on it overnight to bring it into chaos in one fell swoop." , and then the army goes out of the city to hide and kill them, and they will be driven back to the sea, so as to ensure that my Dazaifu is safe!"

Toshi Fujiwara looked down, and found that the person who spoke was not from Dazaifu, but the general of his Fujiwara family in Sanyo Road, called Abe Kitaro, who was said to be a very combative guy among the Fujiwara family generals, so he ordered Nodded, and when he was about to speak, someone said: "This is not right. The Skeleton Army has won consecutive battles. They just defeated the Muto Army today. Their morale is high, and they have just arrived here. They must be very vigilant. Now go out of the city to attack them I am afraid that they will be taken advantage of by them instead, which will only increase the casualties of our soldiers. After the battle in the daytime, our strength has been greatly reduced, and the current strength is similar to that of the enemy. As far as I can see from my humble position, we should stick to the city and wait for the emperor's army to come to help. After the army arrives, we will go out of the city to attack, and the skeleton army can be broken!"

Fujiwara Shun turned his head and saw that the person speaking was Kato Aso, the castle guard general of Dazaifu. This person was a close relative of the Fujiwara family, and he was also a guy with some skills. When Fujiwara Jun heard that what the two said seemed to make sense, he was a little embarrassed Wake up, I don't know whether to take advantage of the fact that the skeleton army is still outside the city and leave the city to surprise them, or to stay in the city and rely on the strong city wall for defense, waiting for the army to come to help!

That Abe Kametaro was not happy when he heard it, and began to argue with this Kato Aso, both of them insisted on their own opinions, the public said the public was right and the woman said the woman was right, gradually the people in the hall were divided into two factions, Some support Abe Kametaro's opinion, some support Kato Aso's opinion, and the quarrel is very lively.

Fujiwara Jun listened to one of the first and two big ones, and really didn't know what to do. He was not an immediate general, and he was far less experienced in how to fight than these generals. For a while, he didn't know how to make a decision. , said angrily: "Stop arguing! When will this quarrel continue? Shut up, now the skeleton army is staring at us outside the city, but we are arguing here, what's the point? Don't argue at this time Well, we are ready with both hands, Abe Kametaro, you take a thousand cavalry, go out of the city from the west gate in the middle of the night, round to the flank of the skeleton army camp, and carry out an assault on them. If the raid is successful, then I will send troops out of the city to cover up and kill the enemy! And Kato, don’t fight anymore, deploy defenses in the city as soon as possible, prepare more rolling logs, rocks and other things, and guard the city closely, and never let the skeletons The army breaks through the Dazaifu, or you will kill yourself!"

With Fujiwara Toshi's words, Abe and Kato didn't dare to talk too much. They each took orders, dispersed with the crowd, and began to prepare to go. Everyone in the city of Dazaifu was mobilized, and they kept transporting to the top of the city overnight. All kinds of defensive things made a posture of defending the city. All the men in the city were forcibly conscripted on the city wall, and those who had guys were handed out to guys, and those who had no guys were empty-handed and prepared Smashing people, in short, everyone can't sleep peacefully, and the people in the city neigh and cheer.

The Dazaifu was busy, and the Fubo army outside the city was not idle either. A large number of supplies were concentrated and guarded. Yang Zaixing's subordinates immediately set up camp on the spot, quickly built a wall with wooden stakes and other things, and deployed bright troops everywhere. At the same time, the defense of various places was arranged. The attack on Dazaifu this time is different from the other cities that were attacked some time ago. They all took a day or two to conquer the city in one fell swoop and entered the city. As far as the city is concerned, it is much stronger. It is basically a reduced version of Kyoto. The city walls are tall and strong, and there are quite a few defenders, not to mention some elite Japanese soldiers. They want to take Dazaifu in one fell swoop in a short time. It is also impossible, so when setting up the camp, Yang Zaixing especially told his subordinates to take strict precautions. After setting up the camp overnight, he set up various defensive facilities outside the camp, such as deer villages, tripping ropes, and barbed wire. and other things to prevent the Japanese from sneaking into the camp at night.

The Fubo Army did these things in an orderly manner. Anyway, servants like Takeuchi were born to be used by them to do these physical tasks, and the most elite troops naturally recharged their energy in the camp, waiting for the dawn of tomorrow. They began to attack Dazaifu, and some soldiers in the navy were also transferred to dig trenches. In short, they were not idle this night, and they worked hard until the middle of the night before they arranged all the defensive facilities and began to arrange night patrols. Will be on duty overnight, and the rest of the troops will return to camp to rest.

Xu Yi doesn't need to worry about these things. With people like Yang Zaixing and Gao Jun around, he believes that they will do things properly, so as soon as his big tent is tied up, Xu Yi lays down after looking around. Rest, with so many elite soldiers here, he is not worried about what the Japanese can do to them!

When Abe saw on the top of the city that the skeleton army camp that had been bustling in the middle of the night began to quiet down, he took off his short legs, jumped down the city wall, got on his horse and came to the west gate of Dazaifu. There were already a thousand cavalry here. When Hou was here, Abe gave an order, and these cavalry jumped on their horses one after another. The west gate was slowly pushed open by the gatekeepers.

These Japanese cavalry are all elite soldiers brought by Abe Kametaro from the Fujiwara family on Sanyo Road. They are all soldiers for the Fujiwara family since they were young. They are very sturdy, and their equipment is the best in Dazaifu. Everyone has a suit of armor, which looks much more formal. These soldiers will follow Abe Kametaro all the way to urge the horses under his crotch, and take small steps to make unnecessary noises as little as possible. It doesn't take long before they appear On the west side of the Fubo army camp.

Abe Kametaro looked at the gleaming skeleton camp, except for groups of patrolling soldiers patrolling the camp from time to time, there seemed to be nothing special, so he slowly pulled out his sword from his waist, and suddenly, He waved towards Fubo Army's Dazhai, then clamped the horse with two short legs, and rushed out at the head of the horse.

The rest of the Japanese cavalry also exerted their strength at the same time. They drew out their sabers one after another, followed Abe Kametaro and killed them towards the Fuba Army camp. The guards above shot.

With the activation of a thousand cavalry, the ground began to shake slightly. When they rushed into the arrow field of the camp, a rain of arrows immediately rushed from their team to the Fubo soldiers at the gate of the camp. fly away.

"Enemy attack..." As soon as a soldier called out the word "enemy attack", a sharp arrow hit his throat, and then he stared unwillingly, and threw himself on the ground in front of the camp gate.

The few remaining soldiers immediately rang the gong, and the sound of the gong spread far away in the silent night, making people feel heart palpitations after hearing it. Abe Kametaro roared and rushed to the gate of the camp first, waving The knife chopped down a Fubo army member who was trying to intercept him with a gun, and then the leaping horse jumped over the deer village in front of the camp gate, and went straight to the camp to kill.

Some unlucky fellows failed to ride their horses to jump over the deer village blocking the camp gate. As a result, they slammed into it heavily. The horses and people were immediately pierced by the deer village's spikes, and died violently in front of the camp gate on the spot. The deer village looked so thin in front of 1000 people, and soon the deer village was knocked down by the Japanese, and there was no obstacle in front of the camp gate. In the camp...

At this time, Xu Yi was sleeping soundly in the big tent, when there was a sound of gongs and horses neighing outside the tent, Xu Yi was startled suddenly, and got up from the couch in a blink of an eye, but because of the sudden , touched the wound on his shoulder, made him gasp in pain, and snorted, and when he was about to ask what happened outside, Li Bo reported outside: "My lord, it really is as Commander Yang said. Unexpectedly, the Japanese sent troops to attack the camp!"

Xu Yi kicked on his boots, then put on a long gown casually, walked out of the big tent quickly, and saw that a group of guards had gathered outside, all their swords were out of their sheaths, and their eyes were fixed on the west side of the camp. With a posture of resting on his guard, Daniu lifted his mace and immediately stood beside Xu Yi. Xu Yi heard the chaotic shouts and shouts at the gate of the camp to the west, so he asked Li Bo Said: "How is the situation? How many Japanese people have come? Is there any trouble in our camp?"

Li Bo immediately replied: "Your Majesty, don't worry. The Japanese only came about 1000 people and tried to steal camp from our west gate, but they happened to fall into our ambush. At this moment Commander Yang and the others are leading troops to encircle them!"

Abe Kametaro led his cavalry to break through the gate of the Fuba Army's camp in one fell swoop, and rushed into the camp of the Fuba Army screaming wildly. As a result, as soon as they rushed into the camp gate, they felt that something was wrong, because there was something wrong in front of them. Another wall appeared, and it was so dark that nothing could be seen clearly. How could there be two camp gates?He was a little confused, but he had already rushed here. He had no other choice but to continue to kill, so he gritted his teeth and continued to rush towards the second camp gate with his soldiers and horses.

The horse on which Abe Kametaro was riding was quite spiritual, and the horse that was galloping suddenly jumped up, and did not know what to dodge, until after Abe Kametaro jumped over, he found that there was actually a rope on the ground, Across the road, he was secretly surprised, he was lucky, he was not tripped by the bridle rope, but the soldiers and horses who followed him were not as lucky as him, running at the end The dozen or so horses in front immediately bumped into the tripping ropes on the ground, and immediately let out a loud hiss, and brought the cavalry on their backs to the ground, and the horses that were galloping at high speed suddenly fell over, No matter how powerful the riders were, they had no choice but to follow them and hit the ground. As a result, their shock formation was immediately disrupted by this sudden change, and the cavalry who followed realized that there might be something ahead, so they all pulled He held the reins and tried to stop, but the horse was galloping. How can it be said that it can stand still? With a huge inertia, it still rushed forward. As a result, some Japanese soldiers were tripped by the horse ropes and fell on the ground. On the ground, he fell and was bleeding.

But the tripping rope also broke on the spot due to the continuous impact, and an ominous premonition rose in Abe Kametaro's heart. Could it be that the other party had already prepared for it?If that's the case, they suck!But it seems a pity to turn around now. Seeing that the brightly lit Fuba army camp is in front of them, and now they are only one step away, it seems a pity to retreat. Abe Kametaro gritted his teeth, waved the sword in his hand again, and Once they rode their horses and rushed forward, and the soldiers and horses behind them saw that the main general had been killed, so they urged their horses again and rushed forward.

Just as they were about to rush to the second camp gate, something happened suddenly again. The horses of the cavalry in front neighed and jumped up, and then fell heavily to the ground. The cavalry behind had no time at all. Reining in the horse, he immediately stepped over them, and immediately fell to the ground. Abe Kametaro was startled, and quickly looked at the ground with the faint light, but he gasped in fright After taking a breath, there are some holes densely covered on the ground, each of which is about the size of a bowl, about half a foot deep, just enough to trap a horse's hoof. Those horses that fell just now stepped into these small traps, and immediately The horse's leg was broken, and it would be strange if it didn't fall!

Abe Kametaro yelled at the Skeleton Army for being insidious, and they could come up with such a wicked idea, but he looked back at the team behind him, and saw that almost all the troops he brought had followed him in, and he was hesitating Could it be that when he continued to charge forward, there was a sound of clappers suddenly sounding around him, and then he heard a burst of dense swishing sounds. Abe Kametaro immediately recognized what the sound was, and exclaimed: "Quickly retreat! Among us Ambush!"

As soon as his words fell, he rode his horse and ran towards the outside of the camp, but it was already too late at this time, a rain of arrows rained down in the night sky, and fell heavily into their team. The rain immediately brought out a cloud of blood in the Japanese army. A large number of Japanese cavalry screamed and fell under the horses with arrows, and their mounts were also shot by arrows. The hurt horses jumped wildly. Their formation was completely messed up, and suddenly there were torches lit up in all directions around them. At this moment, the Japanese could see clearly that they were trapped in a small area similar to an urn city, surrounded by fences, And a large number of archers from the Fubo Army emerged behind the fence.

It turned out that when Yang Zaixing and Gao Jun were setting up camp, they considered that the Japanese might attack the camp at night when they were not yet firmly established, so they set up such traps at the two camp gates that were most likely to be raided. The barracks with a structure similar to the urn city want to let the enemy army rush in and become the turtle in the urn. As a result, Abe Kametaro really rushed in. When Abe Kametaro's soldiers and horses just rushed to the front of the camp gate, they stood in the second place. The archers near the Daoying Gate heard the news, and immediately rushed to the predetermined position with their team, and just kept Abe Kametaro and the others in the circle.

At this time, it happened that Diao Bin was in charge of guarding the west gate. Diao Bin was born as an archer. Stopped the group of Japanese people, issued an order, and fired a thousand arrows. The first round of firing shot and killed many Japanese people. At the same time, he ordered people to use bows and arrows to block the Japanese people's retreat. Arrows fell like rain , and shot towards the Japanese who attacked the camp.

Abe Kametaro really has some skills, swinging the knife to the left and right, unexpectedly fell one unscathed, but his soldiers and horses were unlucky, under such rounds of shooting, there was no way to parry, and one after another fell under the horse. .

After Abe Kametaro suffered this blow, he never dared to stay any longer. He never thought that the skeleton army would be so vigilant. They didn't even leave him a chance, and even dug a big hole for him. If he doesn't leave, It is estimated that even he will stay!
Abe Kametaro commanded these remnants and defeated generals, and rushed out of the camp desperately. The arrows that flew from behind him from time to time kept these people behind him here one by one, and when he got out of the camp , but there are only less than 200 people left around, and the remaining 800 people have become ghosts under the arrows of the Fubo Army, but Abe can't care about those subordinates who didn't come out at the moment, and brought these remnants with him Fleeing in the direction of Dazaifu like a bereaved dog in panic.

Not long after, a sturdy cavalry rushed out from the camp of the Fubo Army, but seeing that the remnants of the Japanese attacking the camp had approached the city of Dazaifu, they stopped their mounts and turned back into the camp.

Fujiwara Toshi still had high hopes for Abe Kametaro's surprise attack on the Fuba Army's camp when he left the city. After Abe Kametaro left the city, he climbed up the city wall and tried his best to watch the Fuba Army's camp. After watching for a long time, In the end, I only saw the sound of shouts of killing coming from the Fubo army camp, and the screams of many dying people, and then I saw a small group of soldiers and horses rushing back to Dazaifu, so I was immediately discouraged and heavily He punched the city wall, then went down the city and returned to the mansion.
