Rise From the Humble

  Chapter 1152 Confrontation

"Hey, you said that we are beating drums and calling for killing like this. What if the Japanese pirates come out? Although the county magistrate said that the Japanese pirates dare not fight us, he is not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. Listen. It is said that there was a field battle with Japanese pirates in a guard station, and they were all killed by Japanese pirates in the end, they can’t do it, can we?”

  Among the young and strong people who lined up outside Taiping County, beating drums and shouting to kill, one person worriedly said to his companion beside him.

   "What are you afraid of, the county magistrate is standing in front of us." Qing Zhuang beside him said nonchalantly.

"But, if you're not afraid of ten thousand, you're afraid of ten thousand..." The man was still worried, and before he finished speaking, he heard a creak, and then saw the gate of Taiping County opened, and one after another fierce Japanese pirates came out of the gate. Then the man became dumb, his eyes widened, as if he had seen a ghost.

   "Hold the grass! Er Gouzi, you have a crow's mouth!" The young man next to him couldn't help but scolded his companion with wide eyes.

   "I, I... I didn't expect that the Japanese pirates really came out." The man said resentfully, and then asked tremblingly, "Why did the Japanese pirates come out? Didn't the magistrate say that the Japanese pirates dare not fight us?!"

"You're dead! What are you afraid of! The magistrate saved our Jingnan, your family and our family. Even if we risk our lives, we must repay the magistrate." Zhuang spit out a mouthful of phlegm heavily, gritted his teeth and looked at the Japanese pirates who filed out, and said fiercely.

   "Words, words... Although words say that, but, if you can not die, wouldn't it be better."

  Worried about being young and strong, I tremble a little.

   "What are you afraid of! Just like the county magistrate said, it's over!" Qing Zhuang punched him beside him.

   "Do it!" Worried Qing Zhuang gritted his teeth, then yelled hard, and his attitude became firm.

In fact, when the gate of Taiping County opened and the Japanese pirates filed out, Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but thump in his heart. He thought that the Japanese pirates wanted to bite him regardless of meeting with the Jiangmen Lord, but seeing that there were only about three hundred Japanese pirates At that time, Zhu Ping'an's thumping heart calmed down again.

Zhu Ping'an knew very well that the Japanese pirates were probing and trying their own strength. If their own side was vulnerable, the Japanese pirates would definitely not let go of this opportunity, and the Japanese pirate army behind them would definitely swallow him up; If so, the Japanese pirates will definitely not fight against him here, he can't afford it, he has to save his strength, and rush to Taizhou Fucheng to join Jiangmen Lord in time, and join forces to attack Taizhou.

  Everything is under control.

"Everyone pay attention, according to the exercise on the road, set up a semi-circular car formation, use the car as a battalion, the Japanese pirates come to attack, shoot them with bows and arrows from a distance, and block them with long spears if they are close, no matter how provocative the Japanese pirates are, they are not allowed to go out of the formation .”

  Facing the Japanese pirates filing out, Zhu Pingan didn't even blink his eyelids, and stood calmly in front of the crowd, raised his arms, and directed the crowd to form formations, like a giant pillar of the sky, as calm as a mountain.

Seeing that the magistrate was so calm, the crowd immediately had a backbone in their hearts, and the tense atmosphere calmed down a lot in an instant. According to Zhu Ping'an's command, all the young and strong untied the horses, cows, and donkeys from the carriages, concentrated them on them, and pushed them. The carriage was in the front row, and a semi-circular defensive formation began.

At this moment, Zhu Ping'an's role in directing the people to practice many times on the way here came out. Although the situation was severe and critical, after all, everyone had set up a semi-circular defensive car formation on the road many times, and they were familiar with it. Under Zhu Ping'an's command, everyone followed the order step by step, and quickly arranged the vehicles into a semicircular defensive formation, and placed the antlers on the carriage on the outermost side of the formation to further strengthen the defense of the formation.

  The city gate of Taiping County was more than a mile away from where Zhu Pingan was stationed. Before Jiro Hojo and other Japanese pirates could reach the crowd, the crowd had already set up a semicircle of defensive vehicles, waiting for them.

When everyone was setting up their chariots, Zhu Pingan walked up to Liu Dafu, patted him on the shoulder, and said to him, "Daaxe, go to the woods behind and tell the brothers in the woods to wait until the Japanese pirates reach the front of the formation." , Shake the tree vigorously, drag the branches, and make as much noise as possible; if the Japanese pirates still don’t retreat, you open the bag, and release all the two sacks of birds you caught in the future.”

   "My lord, don't worry." Liu Dafu nodded in response, cupped his fists to accept the order, turned around and ran quickly towards the woods.

  Liu Dafu turned around and ran away, Hojo Jiro and other Japanese pirates had already killed three hundred meters in front of the formation.

The Japanese pirates came over with a ferocious face, and from a distance, they found that the car formation in front of them was even more ferocious. There were ferocious antlers outside the car, and the entire semicircular defensive car formation looked like a hedgehog with its back thorns spread out. Same, no way to start.

   "The archers are divided into three teams and shoot arrows in turn! The first team shoots arrows!"

  Zhu Pingan commanded everyone loudly when the Japanese pirates were still more than a hundred steps away, and when they entered the bow and arrow range.

   Whoosh whoosh.

   All of a sudden, arrows rained down, flying towards the Japanese pirates who had been killed.

However, a section of operation is as fierce as a tiger, and the score of 250 is still the same problem. The young and strong bows and arrows are weak, not fast, and the accuracy is not great. Bows and arrows, on the way to kill, spread out to both sides in time, avoiding this round of bows and arrows, except for four or five Japanese pirates who were unlucky to hit the arrows, the other Japanese pirates were unscathed, even on the way to escape, Hojo Jiro and dozens of fierce Wo once again staged a good show of catching arrows empty-handed.

   "Hahaha, a bunch of pussies."

   "Ming dogs, don't you have enough to eat? Come, come, I made it in the morning, come and eat!"

  Hojo Jiro and other Japanese pirates laughed arrogantly, waving the feather arrows they received, mocking everyone in a fancy way.

   "Kill it, let these smart dogs see what a man is!"

   A group of incompetent people, none of whom could fight. Hojo Jiro despised the fighting power of the young men at this moment, brandished a Japanese sword and shouted loudly at the Japanese pirates, and took the lead to charge the young men.

   "The second team shoots arrows."

   Facing the fancy taunts from the Japanese pirates, Zhu Pingan twitched the corners of his mouth in disdain, and once again directed everyone to shoot arrows when the Japanese pirates charged. Although the rain of arrows was not enough lethal, the Japanese pirates were blocked a hundred paces away, and they had already achieved their goal.

  The second round of arrow rain was not even as lethal as the first round of arrow rain. This time, only two Japanese pirates were unlucky to be hit by the arrows, and the rest of the Japanese pirates were unharmed.

   "Big sword, after the third round of feather arrows, when the Japanese pirates relax and taunt, you can command the arrows to be released!"

  Zhu Pingan whispered to Liu Dadao while the Japanese pirates were taunting him.

  Liu Dadao took the order, and conveyed Zhu Ping'an's instructions to Liu Daqiang and other archers without any trace.
