Great Song Pirate

Chapter 581
For just two days in a row, the Fubo army just used artillery and rockets to beat Dazaifu city, and the time was tight and the time was slow, so that the Japanese couldn't understand the rules, and they didn't dare to relax their vigilance easily. Everyone's eyes were like rabbits , red and smooth.

Because of the constant blows, the Japanese not only couldn't sleep, they even had problems eating. Those cooks were even more timid, and often they hadn't started copying the guys to cook. When a shell fell into the city, these cooks immediately scattered. However, the result was that for two days in a row, the Japanese in the city didn't even have a decent meal, and some of them didn't even have a bite of cooked food, and their legs trembled with hunger.

Japanese generals such as Toshi Fujiwara have no experience in dealing with such a situation, let alone come up with practical solutions. These people are either furious and scolding, or they hold their breath and are terrified. In short, a group of people are caught blind They couldn't do anything except braving artillery fire to cheer up their subordinates. They could only watch their own people being beaten in vain.

A Japanese general ran to Fujiwara Jun's mansion, found Fujiwara Jun in the cellar, and begged Fujiwara Jun to give him a soldier and horse, let him go out of the city and fight to the death with the Fubo army, and dying on the battlefield is better than hiding in the city like this It is better to be bombarded to death at that time, Fujiwara Toshi is also physically and mentally exhausted, living such a life of being beaten is as uncomfortable as years, and his temper has become irritable, and in a flash of brain, he actually agreed to this Japanese general His request ordered him to order four thousand soldiers and horses. After daybreak, he went out of the city to fight the Fubo army head-on, which was better than staying in the city and being beaten.

On the third day, as soon as the sun came out, the Japanese general named Quan Bingwei ordered four thousand Japanese soldiers who had been slapped in a hurry, ordered people to clean up the sundries at the city gate, and then yelled, and rushed out aggressively. The gate of Dazaifu rushed towards the Fubo army who had just completed their formation.

Xu Yi, Yang Zaixing and other generals looked at each other and smiled, and said, "It seems that Fujiwara Toshi is really impatient, so it's time for us to start!"

Yang Zaixing nodded and replied with a smile: "Exactly, they are the ones who come out of low ranks. Now that these guys are dealt with outside, there probably won't be many Japanese soldiers left in the city!"

With a ferocious expression, Quan Bingwei led four thousand soldiers and horses, galloped out of Dazaifu while howling, and rushed towards the formation of the Fubo Army. The formation of the Fubo Army changed, and the teams of crossbowmen were orderly Passed through the phalanx of pikemen and rattan players, went out to the front row, stringed the bows and crossbows in his hands and set up arrows, and aimed at the rushing Japanese team. Everyone lowered their heads and fired suddenly.

I saw the neat front of the Fubo army soaring into the sky, and a dark cloud formed by arrows flew up. After drawing an elegant arc in the air, it covered the area where the Japanese army was charging like locusts. In the team formation, there was a popping sound in the queue of Japanese people, and then the densely packed Japanese people fell down one after another, and the front line became much sparser. Some Japanese people who fell to the ground with arrows lay on the ground and screamed. howling.

Such a dense rain of arrows immediately stopped the speed of the Japanese's charge, and then continued to charge towards the front of the Fubo Army. Of the arrows he flew, only one arrow hit the armor on his shoulder, but it didn't hurt him, it just left a bloodstain on his arm, which was intercepted by the Fubo army's arrow array, as he expected, It's just that what surprised him somewhat was that the power of the Fubo army's arrow array was a little bit beyond his expectation. This guy pulled out the arrows on his shoulders, raised the Japanese sword in his hand, and continued to charge with a roar. Then they rushed forward without stopping, so these Japanese soldiers who had been slapped in the eye immediately recovered a little, and continued to charge on the corpses of their comrades.

I only heard a series of roars from the artillery position: "Fire!..."

Immediately there was a roar from the artillery position, and the gunpowder smoke enveloped the artillery position again. This time, the artillery replaced the shotgun, and the iron particles the size of soybeans were pushed by the gunpowder, like a rainstorm. It splashed on the Japanese army who was approaching the Fubo army's line. You must know that the shotgun is quite powerful when it is fired at close range. This kind of effect is naturally conceivable. The Japanese soldiers who were rushing seemed to hit a wall heavily. fell to the ground.

Although some Japanese were not fatally injured, many of them had iron sand on their faces. Although they were not dead, they had already dropped their weapons, covered their bloody faces and wailed, and started bumping around. For the Japanese, this round of shelling only stripped the first few layers of their troops, and most of them have not been overthrown by this round of shelling, but they were all scared enough. They were hit by solid iron bullets, and they were suddenly hit by a broom-like rain of iron sand, which really stunned them. They thought that shields could withstand arrows, but after this round of shelling, they realized that the wooden shields they held in their hands Under such a blow, they were like paper. Although many people covered their bodies with shields, they were still covered in blood. Looking at the wooden shields, they were beaten like sieves by iron sand. They were all holes, so the Japanese army's footsteps, which were already low in morale, immediately slowed down. As a result, they saw a dark cloud rising again from the Fubo army's formation, covering them.

When this round of arrow rain fell, even Quan Bingwei who lived in the team couldn't hold on anymore. From leaving the city to now, the soldiers and horses he brought out have been attacked continuously. The massacre, the loss was almost halfway through. On the way they came, there were corpses everywhere. He felt like his nerves were going to be broken. This battle was too suffocating!If you hide in the city, you will be beaten, but if you come out to fight hard, you will still be beaten, and will you let people live?

Just when they were beginning to hesitate, the Fubo army started to move. A large group of servants carried the ladders made in the past two days, rushed from the left flank of the Fubo army to the city wall of Dazaifu, and the artillery positions fired again. It rang, this time they used flowering bullets, and dozens of bullets smashed into the Japanese army's team, killing a bunch of unlucky guys again. Before they figured out what fell, these flowering bullets They began to explode one after another, and smoke rose up in the ranks of the Japanese army, causing the Japanese to flee in all directions, and the formation became even more chaotic. This time Quan Bingwei was not as lucky as the previous two times. A bullet was falling on his side. Amidst the roar, Quan Bingwei was blown away on the spot by the huge air wave. Before landing, he was already dead. Poor him, he just wanted to use his sword skills. , but he didn't even meet anyone from the Fubo Army, so he became a dilapidated corpse here.

With a wave of Yang Zaixing's big gun, the soldiers in the center immediately changed their formation. The rattan players and pikemen immediately passed the archers in the front row, started to press down on the Japanese army in chaos, and followed their charge. , The heavy steps shook the ground, and it didn't take long for the arrow to be crossed by them. The whole battle formation was like a hammer and smashed into the Japanese army. The soldiers on both sides had just touched , Immediately there was a rain of blood all over the sky, and the sound of shouting and killing, the sound of weapons clashing, and the screams of dying people immediately merged into one piece.

Under the attack of the Fubo army, the Japanese army, which lost its general, completely collapsed in an instant. The unrestrained Japanese army let out a sound of exclamation, turned around and began to retreat towards the gate of Dazaifu, hoping to recover Back inside the city, defending the city, but this time the Fubo army could not do what they wished, the army rushed to the gate of Dazaifu, and the artillery army did not lose the opportunity at this time, A violent bombardment started towards the gate of Dazaifu, hitting the city gate with broken stones, and even their door-blocking knife cart and the deer village that had just been placed were blasted into pieces, let alone smashed into the city gate hole. Under the sudden attack of the fierce artillery fire, solid bullets and flowering bullets fell into the city gate one after another, blowing up the Japanese soldiers who tried to block the gate again.

Kato, who was in the city, was completely impatient now. He knew that if these rout soldiers were allowed to rush into the city gate, they would immediately disperse the troops defending the city. He gave them all a chance to retreat into the city, so he no longer cared about the danger. He stood on the top of the city and roared to let the archers on the top of the city shoot arrows to prevent the rout and Fubo army from entering the city.

"Master General! The following are our people!" A Japanese general hesitated and said to Kato.

"Baga! Idiot! Let me shoot the arrows! Let them crash into the city, and the skeleton army will definitely take the opportunity to rush into the city. Let the arrows go, leave them alone, block them! Give me... ah..."

Before Kato could finish his sentence, a sharp arrow flew over from some unknown place. Kato was caught off guard for a while, and was pierced by the sharp arrow on the spot, and his body was carried by the force of the arrow and fell straight , the two subordinates quickly supported his body that was about to fall, and shouted: "My lord general..."

Kato's face was distorted, and blood gushed out of his mouth, and he shouted intermittently: "Shoot the arrow! Shoot the arrow for me...it's too late..." His body went limp before he finished speaking.

The archers didn't dare to delay any longer, they all lay down on the crenel, and started to shoot arrows at the broken soldiers and Fubo army rushing to Dazaifu below. Following their firing, a group of Japanese who had just arrived at the city immediately He was shot and fell to the ground, but it didn't cause much damage to the Fubo army behind him. A Japanese general lay on the battlement and shouted wildly: "Go back and stop the skeleton army! Now is the time for you to serve Fujiwara-sama, Go back! Anyone who dares to retreat will be shot on the spot!"

It should be the fate of these defeated soldiers. Now they can't retreat, and it's impossible to advance. They are just caught between the Fubo army and the Dazaifu. General broke into the Japanese, and after swiping the sword, no one could stop him within five steps. The Japanese were unable to parry, and like a sharp knife, they ruthlessly split the formation of these rout soldiers, and killed them straight towards the city gate.

And the servants also rushed towards the city wall carrying the ladders, and began to add the ladders to the city wall with their shields on their backs. Yang Zaixing gave them the task of attacking the city wall, but he didn't expect them to climb up, but just let them try to attract them. The firepower of the archers of the Japanese army on the city is just to reduce the loss of the main force attacking the city gate. Although it is a bit unethical to do so, the cannon fodder is used for consumption, and no one will complain about him. Apart from obeying, the servants He didn't even dare to fart, so he could only follow his orders and start attacking the city.

In this way, the two sides began to fight fiercely at the city wall and the city gate. The Japanese also went crazy and threw a large number of rolling logs and stones down the city wall, which caused a lot of damage to the attack of the servant army, but they themselves were also defeated by the servants. Many of the archers of the Fubo army who pressed up behind the army were shot to death. The arrows from both sides crossed in the sky and attacked each other one after another. For a while, the whole Dazaifu seemed to be boiling.

Although Kato was killed in battle, the Japanese still had some other generals in command. For them, there was no way out except to fight to the death, so when Gao Jun led his army to break through the defeated Japanese army As soon as they reached the city gate with a piece of rubble in the east, a group of Japanese soldiers rushed out of the city under the leadership of a Japanese general, and stopped Gao Jun's soldiers head-on. The two sides launched a desperate battle at the city gate. At this time, both sides were blood-stained, and Gao Jun was soaked in blood, swinging the simple knife like a wheel, rushing left and right at the gate of the city. After some slashing, even himself I can't count how many Japanese soldiers have been beheaded. At this moment, the battle has completely entered a white-hot level.

After a lot of fighting, the Japanese army who resisted the Fubo army at the city gate finally couldn't bear it anymore. They didn't have a good night's sleep or a full meal for two days and three nights. After Yu Yong passed away, no matter in terms of tactics, physical strength or morale, he was unable to confront the Fubo army who had been recharging their energy for a long time, and was gradually squeezed into the city gate by the Fubo army. Under the attack of the archers of the Fubo Army behind him, Chen Ji was also killed and injured.

After Gao Jun waved a throwing knife, when the Japanese general who tried to continue to resist fell down clutching his throat, the Japanese army at the city gate finally collapsed. Under the leadership of Gao Jun and others, the Fubo army was like a black The torrent of water generally poured into Dazaifu Castle.

Although the Japanese army has been trying to push the Fubo army out of the city near the city gate, as more and more Fubo troops entered the city, they gradually lost their numerical advantage and were driven away by a large number of Fubo soldiers. After entering the city, street fighting began, and the city gate was completely lost. Even the servants who had not been expected to pay considerable casualties climbed the ladder to the top of the city, chasing and killing those The archers of the Fujiwara Army defending the castle came.

After the main infantry entered the city, Lin Xiong and his brothers from the navy followed closely behind and began to enter the city in a large scale. As they entered, the fierce battle in the city became much more intense. On several streets of Dazaifu, everywhere Crowded with soldiers from both sides fighting each other, the situation completely turned to the side of the Fubo army. Relying on their own excellent equipment and high-spirited fighting spirit, they beheaded the Japanese army one by one under their own knives, and sent They rushed into the alleys from the main street, sealed off the entrance of the alleys, and dispatched archers to shoot and kill the Japanese soldiers in the alleys, advancing down the alleys one by one, and wiped out organized ones after another. The Japanese army team, the whole city was full of shouts of killing, everywhere was full of flames, the screams of the dying people filled every inch of the city, there were blood stains everywhere, and there were corpses lying everywhere.

The battle lasted from noon to night and it still didn't end, but most of the areas have been controlled by the Fubo army, and the remaining Japanese were basically suppressed to the area of ​​Fujiwara Prefecture, and the battles in other places were basically over. The troops of the Fubo Army are starting to search and suppress from house to house, without missing any places, so as to avoid another situation like the last time Xu Yi was attacked.At this time, the Fubo army had all entered Dazaifu, and the battle was drawing to a close.

Accompanied by Li Bo and other personal guards, Xu Yi also came to enter the Dazaifu city, outside Jun Fujiwara's mansion, looked at the tall and sturdy Fujiwara mansion with its gates closed, asked about the situation, and learned that There are roughly a few hundred people, most of them should be the generals of the Muto family. After the city was broken, they all gathered in Fujiwara Toshi's mansion, merged with Fujiwara's personal soldiers, and prepared to make a final desperate resistance. Yi sneered, and said to Li Bo: "Bring that guy out! Let him persuade the people inside not to make us bother. It's better to open the door and surrender. We'll just kill them!"

Li Bo nodded when he heard this, and immediately pushed out a person from behind. With the light of the light ball and torch, someone quickly recognized the identity of this person. It turned out to be the Muto Hirobumi they captured in the previous battle at sea. After the guy was arrested, he was kept in the cell of the Zombie by the Fubo Army. He hadn't seen the sun for a long time, his face was as pale as a ghost, and he was sent to Xu Yi tremblingly.

"If you have any value, then go open this door and let everyone inside come out and surrender, otherwise, don't come back! I will blow up here in a while, and save you bastards from staying The world is wasting food!" Xu Yi ordered Muto Hirobumi.

Mu Teng quickly agreed. After being imprisoned for so long, he now cherishes his life even more. Instead, he no longer has the mood of begging for death at the beginning, so he hurried to Fujiwara Mansion and shouted inside: " Don't shoot arrows! I'm Muto Hirobumi, I'm not dead yet! Don't shoot arrows!"

Some of the generals on the wall of the courtyard happened to be the generals of the Muto family, and hurriedly stopped those Fujiwara soldiers who were about to shoot arrows, and quickly informed Muto Yori who was hiding in the courtyard.

Muto Yorui and Fujiwara Junwen were startled when they heard this, and hurried to the door, lying on the crack of the door and looking out, seeing that it was really Hirobumi Muto, they quickly opened the crack of the door a little, and connected Hirobumi Muto to the mansion.

After Muto saw the same pale Fujiwara Toshi, he quickly knelt down and kowtowed, saying that he was a guilty general, and was helped by Muto Hirobumi, and Muto Hirobumi said: "Master too handsome, your humble position has insulted your trust, the result of the battle at sea A big defeat, let the handsome man also suffer!"

Toshi Fujiwara had already lost his temper at this time. What else could he say about Hirobumi Muto after he came to this kind of field?So he waved his hands and said: "Let's not talk about this, we all underestimated the skeleton army, which led to the current fiasco. The skeleton army is much stronger than we thought! I think they will let you back now, There must be a purpose, you just say it!"

Muto Hirobumi raised his pale face and said to Fujiwara Toshi and the others: "My lord! The humble job was released by them this time to persuade you to surrender! They..."

Fujiwara Junyi immediately stopped his words, and said angrily: "Don't say it, surrender is impossible. Thinking that our Fujiwara family has been loyal to the Yamato Kingdom for generations, how can we surrender to a bunch of pirates? Isn't that necessary? Let us lose the face of the Fujiwara family?"

Wu Teng hurriedly persuaded: "Master Taishuai, listen to me, the Han people have an old saying that it is good to keep the green hills alive. Now the city of Dazaifu has been captured by the Fubo army, and the mansion of your lord has also been captured by them." Surrounded in groups, with the terrifying things in their hands, it can be said that this place can be razed to the ground without any effort. Now that it has reached such a point, resistance is futile, and the adults also understand that there is no hope now. The Emperor Baihe will immediately send troops to rescue us, and Baihe thinks that his lord must understand that once the lord dies, the entire Xikaido will become the territory of the emperor Baihe, so why should the lord be loyal to him? The Fujiwara family has been important ministers in the court for generations, but look at it now? Needless to say, I am afraid that Mr. Taishuai knows that if this place is lost again, wouldn’t the Fujiwara family not even have the last place?  … "Muto is a die-hard supporter of the Fujiwara family, so he brought up this great truth and said it eloquently.

After hearing Muto Hirobumi's words, Fujiwara Toshi clenched his fists. In fact, he had already figured it out in the past two days. If Shirakawa really came to support them, he should have arrived long ago, but his army has been delayed. To the point where Dazaifu was destroyed today, Toshi Fujiwara understood Shirakawa's thoughts even more, so he became tempted.

(Preview! This is the last battle of the Wa country, and the pig's feet will return to the country tomorrow! Hehe!)
