Good morning Daming

Chapter 1052 Wall of Sighs

Chapter 1052 Wall of Sighs
It was a dark night, and there were only two sounds in the entire dock: the sound of waves gently lapping against the warships and the shore, and the other was snoring.

When Takeda Gyosai heard the snoring, he concluded that today's surprise attack would undoubtedly be a success.

Snoring on this scale cannot be faked!

He even had time to imagine a scenario in which he would suddenly have several or even a dozen giant ships under his command.

Sasaki Chiki is nothing!
You go to Hangzhou to show off and gain fame, and I will take the real benefits.

"kill!"

The Japanese pirates shouted wildly.

The steward was startled, "Why not just attack quietly?"

Takeda Gyosai stood proudly with his sword in hand, "I want to be the first to make a splash."

The military advisor waved his fan and said, "If we launch a surprise attack from close range, the Ming navy will get mad in a hurry and both sides will suffer losses. Let's shout to make the Ming army panic first. When they are panicking, our divine troops will descend from the sky. Who wouldn't panic? It's right to panic."

The manager thought, is this the art of war?

He thought of Jiang Qingzhi and couldn't help laughing, "Jiang Qingzhi claimed to be a famous general of the Ming Dynasty, but today he fell into your hands. I think this general is nothing but shit, hahahaha!"

"Hahahaha!" Takeda Gyosai couldn't help laughing when he thought that his good name would be widely praised in Japan.

He stared at the warships while laughing.

Sure enough, the Ming army on those warships were in a panic.

In the dim light, the Ming army rushed out of the cabin and ran around on the deck like headless flies, and some even jumped into the water to escape.

"Enemy attack!" the general roared.

But no one paid any attention to him. After the exhausted Ming army woke up, the first thing they did was to escape.

If you want to become a strong army and remain calm in the face of emergencies, it is not something that can be achieved through a short period of training.

It has to go through the trials of war.

The navy lacks this kind of training, and once it encounters a surprise attack, its true colors will be exposed.

"Mud!" the steward said with disdain.

The Japanese pirates were overjoyed when they saw this and ran even faster.

The pier is just ahead.

More than ten people were laying the planks of the boat, and someone waved, "Hurry!"

A sergeant who was laying the planks suddenly said, "I quit."

"Ma Liu, you idiot, how dare you turn against us?" a general cursed.

"Those are our brothers. I can't just watch them being slaughtered by the Japanese pirates. I won't do this anymore. Come on, come on..."

"Kill him!" the general shouted.

The two soldiers drew their swords and rushed over, cursing as they went, "Damn you bastard."

The soldiers retreated while shouting, "We are Ming people. We can't sell our ancestors. Captain, let's turn back!"

"Ancestor? I'm rich now, so the ancestors should be happy." Li Wan was at the dock, and he grinned, "Shout! Jiang Qingzhi is far away in Hangzhou, and he might be sleeping soundly with the beauty presented to him by his subordinates. You keep shouting."

boom!
A huge explosion suddenly occurred.

Everyone was stunned for a moment and looked towards the source of the explosion.

More than three miles away from the pier, flames rose violently.

Torches were lit one after another, and the flames formed a continuous piece...

In the firelight, a large flag was raised.

"kill!"

The sound of horse hooves suddenly arose.

faster and faster.

"Is it the Ming army?" A Japanese pirate suddenly screamed, "This is a trap!"

"The Ming army is attacking!"

Li Wan stared at the fire in a daze, and suddenly his whole body was shocked, "This is..."

The Japanese pirates were stunned.

Advance or retreat?

Takeda Gyosai was also stunned for a moment. Judging from the reaction of the Ming army, this raid was clearly successful. But... but where did these Ming troops come from?
The military advisor was the first to wake up. He pointed at the warship with his folding fan and said, "Seize the ship!"

The steward's first reaction was to run away, but then he thought, the Ming army had cavalry, how could he outrun them on his own two feet? So he also shouted, "Seize the boat! Seize the boat!"

The Japanese pirates also reacted. There were only two options left. One was to counterattack and defeat the Ming army's ambush. But it was dark at night, and the number of Ming army's ambush was unknown, so the outcome was unpredictable. The problem was that the Ming army had cavalry, and they were more likely to be driven into the water to feed the fish and shrimp if they fought with their backs to the water.

Another way is to seize the ship, which is the quickest way to survive. Looking at the panic of the Ming army, it is clear that they were kept in the dark.

Wu Tian Xingzai cursed: "Jiang Qingzhi kept the navy in the dark and used them as bait to lure us into the trap. He has such a cruel heart!"

That’s a famous coach!
The military advisor thought of a poem and could not help reciting it: "Poor bones by the river, still the person in the deep boudoir's dream."

"Seize the ship!" everyone shouted.

After seizing the Ming army's warships, they only needed to pull out the planks of the ship, and the ambushers would be helpless.

If you have the guts, just fly up. Even if you get on the ship, the infantry on the ship are no different from chickens and ducks. You can only be slaughtered at will.

The Japanese pirates shouted and rushed towards the dock again.

As Wang Tianyu ran, he shouted, "Old Li, seize the boat, seize the boat!"

Li Wan came to his senses, turned around and looked, and saw that the navy officers and soldiers were still in chaos. He was overjoyed and shouted, "Seize the ship!"

But then he choked up, he knew that after tonight, he would have no choice but to flee overseas.

It was a well-planned surprise attack, but who would have thought that Jiang Qingzhi had already noticed it and had prepared an ambush nearby.

In other words, Jiang Qingzhi had already discovered the identities of him and Wang Tianyu.

"Da Lang!" Thinking of his wife and children, Li Wan closed his eyes. "Jiang Qingzhi, you have calculated everything, but did you expect us to advance instead of retreat? Once we seize the navy's warships, we will set sail and escape. Without the navy, how can you open the sea? How dare you go out to sea to trade? Hahahaha! I'm waiting to see you make a fool of yourself and how you roll back to the capital in embarrassment."

In this chaos, two warships were exceptionally quiet. Li Wan had not noticed them before, but now he discovered something unusual. "Whose warships are those?"

"He is under Chen Yu's command." Someone said,

"Chen Yu... Not good!" After all, Li Wan had been in the navy for many years, and subconsciously felt that something was wrong, "Let's go and take a look!" Before he finished speaking, torches suddenly lit up on the two warships.

Chen Yu's voice came from the torch, "Get ready..."

Rows of soldiers were lined up on the side, wearing neatly arranged armor, and were obviously ready for battle, waiting for the Japanese pirates to attack at any time.

"Chen Yu!" Wang Tianyu stopped and had a bad feeling in his heart. He shouted, "Hurry! Hurry!"

The sides of the two warships were densely armed with firearms.

Wang Tianyu shouted, "Don't be afraid of those firearms. Most of them can only set fires. Just charge forward!"

The lethality of firearms at this moment is quite impressive, but naval battles do not require any lethality. The best way is to set the opponent's warships on fire.

The Japanese pirates roared and began to speed up... At this critical moment, they exploded.

On the two warships, a man who looked like a craftsman coughed dryly, "Um...ignite!"

The torches looked down, illuminating the dozen or so cannons.

The metallic glow suddenly flickered in the dark night.

The torch landed on the fire door and ignited the primer.

Boom boom boom...

More than a dozen cannons roared suddenly.

Smoke rushed out of the barrel.

The shells were fired and whistled towards the Japanese pirates who were running towards the dock.

"What is that?" asked Takeda Gyosai.

"Firearms!" said the military advisor. "Don't worry, Chief. The Ming army's firearms are very effective at sea, but not very useful on land." He glanced at the cavalry galloping towards them and said, "Chief, we have to get on the boat quickly."

"Let's go!" Takeda Gyosai nodded, and just as he took a step, he saw the Japanese pirates who had rushed to the side of the dock suddenly stop.

The sound of broken bones was like thunder, and in the firelight, Takeda Gyosai saw limbs flying in the air.

He gasped, and saw in disbelief that it was as if more than a dozen giant beasts had rushed into his formation...

"God, what is that?" screamed the steward.

"It's a firearm!" The military advisor's face turned pale, "Chief, turn back, turn back!"

Just one wave of attacks was enough to make the Japanese pirates stunned.

More than a dozen passages created by artillery shells were filled with blood and flesh.

Those Japanese pirates who were not dead were howling in pain, and the Japanese pirates on both sides who witnessed this tragic scene turned around and ran without hesitation.

This is not a weapon that the flesh can resist.

"Charge! Charge!" Takeda Gyosai said decisively, "Follow them. Whoever dares to escape will be killed. Kill them all."

The military advisor also came to his senses. He saw that the Ming soldiers on the two warships were busy, which showed that it would be difficult for the firearms to fire again. This gap was also their last chance, so he pointed at the two warships with his folding fan and said, "Seize the ships, seize those two ships."

Yes!

If we can seize those two warships, these powerful firearms will become ours.

The small leaders among the Japanese pirates were frantically urging their subordinates.

"They are cavalry. If we turn back, we will die. The only way to survive is to seize the ship!"

Under their encouragement, the Japanese pirates burst out with amazing strength, and their running speed was getting faster and faster.

"Good!" When they saw the first Japanese pirate rushing up from the deck, Takeda Gyosai and the military advisor cheered almost at the same time.

"As long as we mix with the Ming army, our firearms will become useless!" Takeda Gyosai laughed as he ran.

The steward also grinned. He looked back and saw that the cavalry was still some distance away. He couldn't help but said proudly, "Jiang Qingzhi, you are late."

He turned around and suddenly saw a large group of infantrymen on the sides of the two warships.

What are those infantrymen holding?
The steward suddenly thought of something.

When the news of the great victory in the Northern Expedition reached Hangzhou, there was one piece of news that made Wang Shi quite fearful... Jiang Qingzhi was in a precarious situation in this battle, and it was not some fierce generals and soldiers who helped him turn the tables, but the muskets.

——Rows of muskets fired in unison, and the cavalry that Altan relied on seemed to encounter a wall a hundred steps away.

An impenetrable wall of sighs.

firearm!

Musket!

Since Jiang Qingzhi had been prepared for this, why was he so hasty?

How could he not bring out what he relied on?

"Back off! Back off!" the manager shouted, but no one listened to him. At this moment, the Japanese pirates' eyes turned red, and their minds were full of one thought.

——Seize the ship and run away!
Jiang Qingzhi's attitude towards the Japanese pirates was well known. He would not take any prisoners in every battle. If he captured enough, he would definitely use the corpses of the Japanese pirates to build a memorial temple.

The Japanese pirates believed in reincarnation the most. Once someone lost his brain, he would become a wandering ghost.

Unable to reincarnate.

Driven by this great fear, the Japanese pirates rushed forward one after another.

"Get ready!" someone yelled.

"volley!"

"It's a musket!" the steward shouted in despair.

The running Japanese pirates were in ecstasy and no one heard this desperate voice.

Bang bang bang bang!

Countless flames burst out from the two warships.

Countless lead bullets flew over the water.

Rushed towards the Japanese pirates.

The Japanese pirates who were running wildly seemed to encounter a wall.
