Chapter 428: double attack
Chapter 428 Attack from both sides
Eunuch Su never imagined that he would encounter pirates wherever he got lost. In fact, it is not lost, but the wrong way.
"My lord, there is a fishing village over there, go and avoid it." The guard who followed Eunuch Su out of Beijing had his right hand on his waist knife, his face full of anxiety.
"No, you can't implicate the common people." Eunuch Su narrowed his eyes slightly, pirates dared to go ashore in broad daylight, it was really rampant. "Go that way." He pointed in the opposite direction from the fishing village.
Genzi glanced at the pirate who was running this way quickly, and his heart sank.
It was too close, the pirate was too close, the excited shouts could be clearly heard. None of them noticed before, as if these pirates suddenly appeared from nowhere.
Run, you will be caught up soon.
Eunuch Su was accompanied by a dozen or so guards, but he had no chance of winning in the face of the black pirates.
No! The imperial envoy must not have any accidents, absolutely no accidents.
Genzi stepped forward and said quickly: "Sir, let's go to the fishing village. To guard against pirates, the fishing village has built a fortress. According to the village, it should be able to withstand it for a while. There is a team of officers and soldiers stationed nearby. Wait until the gentleman is settled down. The little one immediately went to get reinforcements." Genzi still called him Mr.
The officers and soldiers stationed here were just sent here. Last time the county magistrate inspected and stayed in a small fishing village, he was met by pirates that night. After returning, the county magistrate allocated money to build docks for all the fishing villages near the sea, enclosing the whole village inside.
He also sent Chief Guard Jiang to prevent the pirates from going ashore and harming the people.
Eunuch Su made a prompt decision, "Go get reinforcements now, the carriage has been abandoned, and you, Old Ding, ride into the city to ask for help."
"Yes, my lord." The guard called Lao Ding immediately stepped forward to untie the horse, and turned on the horse, "My lord, I'm going down." He raised the whip and lashed at the horse's buttocks, and the horse neighed like a slap in the face. The arrow rushed out like an arrow.
Genzi hesitated for a moment, then clasped his fists together, "Sir, the little one is going too." He ran towards the garrison.
The remaining guards escorted Eunuch Su to the faintly visible fishing village, "My lord, let's go."
Seeing that they had changed direction, the pirates screamed even louder. The leading ones even pulled out their big knives and held them up high, looking fierce.
Pirates were also found in the fishing village, and the village head was beating on a broken gong while shouting loudly: "The pirates are coming, every family should take good care of the children, and the men are on the wall."
When Eunuch Su and his party arrived, the gate of Wubao had already been closed. The village head leaned on the wall to read their ID certificates, and then hurriedly opened the door to let them in, and the pirate was already close in sight.
"Master Imperial Envoy, the grassroots kowtow to you." The village chief was terrified, and the villagers on the side looked at each other in dismay. Is this man with a boyish face the Imperial Envoy? Do they have to kowtow too? but outside...
Eunuch Su supported him, "No, it's important. First drive back the pirates, and then you can do whatever you want. By the way, they can all help." Eunuch Su pointed at his guard.
There are pirates outside the wall, they are already banging on the door, and the situation is really urgent, the village chief suddenly couldn't care about anything, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Hurry up, hurry up, go to the wall, two people together, guard it!" Don't let the pirates climb up to their respective positions. Yes, take a pole and poke hard, aiming at the eyes."
After a while, he shouted again: "Is the hot water ready? Hurry up and pour it down to scald these turtle **** to death. Be careful, don't burn yourself. Have you sent the news yet? Smoke, smoke, what kind of fire are you burning?" ? You won't wet the firewood?"
He ran here and there for a while, but he was busy.
The guards went up the wall, but found it useless.
They have weapons in their hands, but neither knives nor swords are suitable. They can't wait for the pirates to climb up before killing them.
The best way to defend a village like this is to use arrows. They all know how to shoot arrows, but they don’t have arrows, and they don’t go hunting in the mountains. Who goes out with arrows on their backs?
How about they rush out to fight the pirates in hand-to-hand combat?
Just as he was hesitating, the village head came running with bamboo poles in his arms, "Quick, each person takes one."
It was only when I took it in my hand that I realized that the end of the bamboo pole had been sharpened. Everyone was overjoyed.
The guards are all selected from the imperial army, all of them are highly skilled in martial arts. When the bamboo poles are in their hands, they can use their fingers like arms. It's like poking candied haws, it's quite fun.
Su Gonggong noticed that all the young and strong men in the village were on the wall, but the old people, children, and women were not idle. Those who carried hot water carried hot water, those who brought bamboo poles, and those who carried stones... everywhere It is a person, each performing his own duties, in an orderly manner.
Pirates are miserable, they can't break open the door, and they can't climb the wall. After finally climbing halfway through the people stepping on the ground, a pot of scalding hot water was poured on the top... The pirate screamed and fell down, rolling on the ground, "Water, water, give me cold water."
Seeing the other pirates couldn't help being startled, when did these weak fishermen become so powerful? And this Wubao, when was it built?
Forget it, let's withdraw, don't lose your life, it will be a big loss.
Pirates are originally a group of rabble who are fierce and fierce. What they care most about is their own safety. How can they have any view of the big picture, organization and discipline? I only know that the situation is not good, so run away! No amount of scolding by the little leader of the pirates will work.
Unfortunately, the pirate didn't run very far, and immediately met the reinforcements moved by Genzi. The village chief also let the firewood smoke to report the news, so the reinforcements came quickly.
There are officers and soldiers in front, and there is no retreat behind. Pirates are like mice in the bellows, being angry at both ends.
There were a hundred reinforcements brought by the chief guard, and Wen Jiuxiao directly dispatched a patrol inspector. There are three inspections in Shanyun County, except for Zhang Changsheng, the other two are from Wen Jiuxiao, most of them are equipped with guards from Beijing, and their combat effectiveness is naturally much stronger than those recruited from the people.
As soon as he fought against the pirates, he immediately gained the upper hand. In addition, everyone already knows that the imperial envoy is in the dock of the fishing village, and he is doing his best to not let a pirate go. Maybe he can build another Jingguan, which will make them look good.
Seeing this, Eunuch Su’s guards hurried out of the Wubao and rushed in with their swords in hand, not to be outdone.
Under the attack from both sides, most of the pirates were killed or injured, and all those who were still alive became prisoners.
After cleaning the battlefield, the villagers of the fishing village gathered together in groups of threes and fours, counting how many rewards they could receive.
Yes, according to the new decree issued by the county magistrate, people will be rewarded for killing pirates. One pirate head can be exchanged for five taels of silver.
Eunuch Su is more curious, "Didn't Wubao be built just now? How did you manage to stay calm and orderly?"
The village chief looked proud, "Speaking of adults, although this is the first time we really face the pirates, we practice in private every two days. Who is standing in what position, who is responsible for what, who is injured and who will replace it, all of them Assigned in advance. We know what to do now with our eyes closed."
"This idea..." It doesn't look like the village head could have come up with it, "Who thought it up?"
"The county magistrate, our county magistrate sent someone to teach in the village." The village head straightened his back.
Grandpa Su...
The county grandpa is the county grandpa, why is the voice so loud?
Go to Xiaoxiang Academy to see the update.
Wishing you all a Happy Goddess' Day!
