The rise of the poor

Chapter 1446 The opportunity to make merit is here

"Well done! It's finally here! My big knife is already hungry and thirsty."

When Naoshima heard that the Ming army was coming, Naoshima grinned happily. Gulu rolled over and got out of bed. With the assistance of Matsuura Sanbanrou, he put on a big kai, put on a lion bite helmet, and came to the courtyard with a samurai sword .

This set of Taikai was once worn by Ryuzoji Takanobu, and it was specially rewarded to Nabeshima Naoo before departure.

After Naoshima put on the armor, he was very heroic. He felt that the power was transmitted from the armor to the body, and his combat power increased.

Matsuura Sanbanlang is also wearing a suit of armor, although it is not as gorgeous as Nabeshima Naoo, but it is also a full-body heavy armor inherited from the Matsuura family that is very valuable. It accounts for about one-third, and most of their armor is light armor, while other Japanese pirates have no armor, and they wear civilian clothes and bare feet.

The Japanese pirates in the courtyard are all ready to fight. Dozens of Japanese pirates with bows are stepping on chairs, showing half of their heads on the courtyard wall, stretching out their bows; there are also ten Japanese pirates holding iron cannons, occupying the commanding heights of the third floor. The rest of the Japanese pirates are fighting in close combat, holding katana, naginata, spears and other weapons in their hands, ready to go.

Although there were only 150 Japanese pirates, each of them was full of fighting spirit, and no fear was seen on anyone's face.

"Yukishi, bastards, not bad!" Nabeshima looked at the pirates and grinned in satisfaction.

"General Straight Man, look, the Ming army is already less than [-] miles away." Sanbanlang Matsuura said, pointing outside.

Naoshima looked up and saw that a large number of Ming troops were advancing here in a certain position outside.

Naoshima made a rough count, and there were about two thousand people. He grinned and said, "Yaoxi! This time I can drink my blood with my big sword!" Then he turned his head and shouted at the Japanese pirates in the courtyard, "You bastards, We only have 150 people, and there are more than [-] Ming soldiers outside, are you afraid?!"

"Not afraid!"

"Afraid?! We are afraid that the Ming army is not enough for us to kill! I heard that the Ming army is as weak as a monkey."

The Japanese pirates in the courtyard laughed arrogantly, and all of them ignored the Ming army who came to encircle and suppress them outside the courtyard.

"Hahaha, you sinful, inhuman bastards are worthy of my Yamato good boy!" Naoshima laughed in satisfaction, and pointed to the late Ming army outside. Arrogantly said: "When the Ming army comes, I will take you bastards to kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

The Japanese pirates in the courtyard brandished their weapons, each with a murderous look, and each with a ferocious face like a wolf.

"Straight male generals, everyone, when this wave of Ming people comes, if the Ming army is strong, we just need to guard the courtyard to save ourselves, make a raft at night, raid the Ming army at night, and cross the river to escape ;If the Ming army is weak, then everyone should not kill too hard, take a little effort, and don't scare the Ming army away. This is our first contact with the Ming army, and the opportunity is rare. I want to observe and study the Ming army carefully. In the current situation, after today, you can kill as much as you like."

Matsuura Sanbanlang calmly looked at the fanatical Nabeshima Naoo and the Japanese pirates, and suggested calmly.

"Sanbanlang, listen to you!" Naoshima nodded, and said to the Japanese pirates, "General Sanbanlang has heard everything! Mingren will come later, take some effort, don't miss out on spying Daming's big event!"

"Hi!"

All the pirates said in unison.

At some positions outside and inside the courtyard, more than two thousand Ming troops were advancing towards the courtyard, and their uniforms separated them into two parts.

Some of them were soldiers and horses led by Liu Xi, the prefect of Shaoxing. There were more than [-] people in total, [-] were troops from Shaoxing Prefecture, and [-] were unofficial troops such as yamen servants and civil servants from the eight counties in the jurisdiction.

The other part is a thousand guard soldiers led by Xu Ziyi, a thousand households of the guard.

Liu Zhifu and Xu Qianhu did not negotiate to join forces to encircle and suppress the Japanese pirates, but led troops to encircle and suppress the Japanese pirates separately.

Funing Town (that is, the village and town where Naoshima Naoshima and his Japanese pirates ravaged) has more than a hundred people who survived. After escaping from the Japanese pirates' butcher knife, the news spread that the Japanese pirates landed and killed Funing Town. The prefect of Shaoxing Liu Xi and Xu Ziyi, a thousand households in the guard, got the news almost at the same time.After learning that there were only more than 100 Japanese pirates who had landed, Liu Xi, the prefect of Shaoxing, and Xu Ziyi, a thousand households in the guards, came to a conclusion: this is a good opportunity to make meritorious service!
In the recent period, under the connivance and instigation of Wang Zhi, the leader of the Japanese pirates, the Japanese pirates have gone crazy, and the frequency of landing and harassing the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas has greatly increased.Liu Xi, the prefect of Shaoxing, and Xu Ziyi, a thousand households in the guard, were under a lot of pressure.

The prefect status of the Ming Dynasty is equivalent to that of a high-ranking city official who concurrently serves as the mayor of a prefecture-level city. He has a high position and heavy responsibility. All government affairs such as inspecting traitors, assessing subordinate officials, and collecting taxes are all their responsibilities. Of course, the most important responsibility is to protect the environment and the people.Today, the Japanese pirates have repeatedly harassed and harassed the counties of Shaoxing Prefecture, causing serious casualties and property losses to the counties of Shaoxing Prefecture. Can Liu Xi, the magistrate, be under a lot of pressure?

To a certain extent, the Ming Dynasty guard station is equivalent to a small military region now, and it shoulders the responsibility of defense.One of the main areas that Xu Ziyi was in charge of defending was Shaoxing Mansion. Now Japanese pirates are harassing Shaoxing Mansion like crazy.

During this period of time, the Japanese pirates who harassed Shaoxing Mansion were usually more than a thousand people, and the few were as many as five or six hundred. Liu Zhifu and Xu Qianhu wanted to kill the Japanese, but they had limited troops and limited combat power, so they had no power to do so.

Now, when I heard that a group of more than 100 Japanese pirates landed, I immediately felt that this was an opportunity to wipe out all the Japanese pirates and make a great contribution.

In the past, when Japanese pirates landed and harassed them, they would inform each other, reach a consensus, and join forces to expel the Japanese pirates.

But this time is different.

This was an opportunity to make meritorious deeds. After hearing the news, they further confirmed that the news was true. There were indeed only more than 100 Japanese pirates.They met each other on their way.

Hehe, what a coincidence.

Liu Zhifu and Xu Qianhu couldn't help being a little embarrassed, but both of them are experts in the officialdom, and they can handle this kind of embarrassing situation with ease.

"Xu Qianhu, after I heard that Funing Town in the area under my jurisdiction was captured by Japanese pirates, I feel sorry for the people. I was afraid that the Japanese pirates would cause more killings. Before I could tell Xu Qianhu in time, I recruited troops to destroy the Japanese pirates."

Liu Zhifu said with a sad face.

"Prefect Liu, the last general also heard that there were Japanese pirates landing in Funing Town. He was worried that the Japanese pirates would loot other places, so he hurriedly summoned soldiers from the guards to wipe out the Japanese pirates. He was eager to wipe out the Japanese pirates for a while, so he didn't come to notify Liu Zhifu."

Xu Qianhu clasped his fists, with a sense of responsibility on his face.
