A knife in love

Chapter 2684
When Li Qiufeng saw that the leader of the Japanese pirates turned his Japanese pirates into human shields to avoid the copper coins he fired, Li Qiufeng's heart trembled, and he thought to himself that this person was decisive and cruel, and he was really a difficult enemy to deal with.Seeing the leader of the pirates rushing towards him, Li Qiufeng didn't dare to hold back the slightest, and was about to swing his knife to meet him, but he didn't expect that this person suddenly turned to the right, slipped into the corner door, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.He was both angry and funny, thinking to himself whether it was the Yagyu family or the subordinates of Fusang Daimyo, the Japanese were not only vicious and cunning, but also would do anything to escape if they were in danger, even their closest relatives would be abandoned and betrayed.Although these youngsters can be arrogant for a while by relying on scheming and cruelty, they will lose in the end if they don't respect justice in everything.

The Japanese pirates didn't expect their leader to be so despicable, they were all shocked, they all looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what to do for a while.Seeing the leader of the pirates fleeing into the corner gate and disappearing in an instant, all the pirates came to their senses, shouted, and ran desperately towards the corner gates on the north and south sides, trying to escape from the backyard.It's just that the two corner gates are very narrow, hundreds of Japanese pirates scrambled to escape through the corner gates, and they crowded into a group, but no one could escape.Some Japanese pirates got annoyed and waved their knives and guns, trying to force their way through the corner gate.The other Japanese pirates naturally refused to accept it, and drew their swords to face each other. In an instant, more than a dozen Japanese pirates were fighting in one place.

Seeing this situation, Li Qiufeng was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked Hong Hu to give an order to let the remaining forty or fifty Jinyi guards quickly put on the black bamboo helmets and black bamboo armor worn by the Japanese pirates.Li Qiufeng said to the crowd: "In order not to kill each other, my lords, please tear off the strip of cloth from the clothes of the Japanese pirate's corpse and tie it on the left arm. When you see a person with a strip of cloth tied on the left arm, you will know It's one of our own."

At this time, corpses were strewn all over the backyard, Hong Hu and other Jinyiwei took off the armor from the corpses of the Japanese pirates and put them on themselves.Qi Jiu and Wang Xiaoyu also put on black bamboo helmets and black bamboo armor.When everyone was changing into armor, the Japanese pirates were scrambling around in front of the two corner gates like headless chickens, trying to escape one step ahead of their accomplices.In a short while, four or five Japanese pirates died under the swords and guns of their accomplices.There were still a few Japanese pirates who fell to the ground, and the Japanese pirates behind them still rushed up regardless.Although several Japanese pirates cried for help, they were ignored at all.After a while, several Japanese pirates who fell to the ground were trampled to death by their accomplices. Their heads were either smashed to pieces, or their chests were pierced and their stomachs were pierced.

Hong Hu put on a bamboo helmet and bamboo armor, and tied a strip of cloth around his left arm. He raised his arms up a few times, and the armor made of bamboo slices rattled.Hong Hu thought for a moment, then turned his head and said to Li Qiufeng who was standing beside him: "I have heard from brothers who have dealt with Japanese pirates in Fujian that Fusang is an overseas island country with barren land and poor products, and they don't understand The art of making iron means that, except for the wealthy generals who can spend huge sums of money to make iron helmets and armor, ordinary soldiers can only make armor out of bamboo pieces. At that time, I didn’t know how to use bamboo pieces to make armor. I saw the real thing with my own eyes. The bamboo armor is light, and the bamboo slices have been soaked in oil. In terms of its toughness, it is still higher than the iron armor. But after the bamboo slices are soaked in oil, if they are attacked by fire, they will be burned by Zhuge Liang. The Rattan Armored Soldiers who have passed must have a miserable end..."

Before Hong Hu finished speaking, he heard the sound of feathered arrows piercing through the air. Countless feathered arrows were shot from the top of the stone wall on the west side and the two corner gates in the north and south, all of them were aimed at Hong Hu.Li Qiufeng was startled, and hastily swung his knife to call the flying arrows.Hong Hu was caught off guard, although Li Qiufeng knocked over a dozen feathered arrows flying, seven or eight feathered arrows still shot at Hong Hu.One of the feather arrows hit Hong Hu's throat, and the other pierced his right eye.

Li Qiufeng watched Hong Hu hit the arrow, he was shocked and regretted, he thought to himself that I thought the Japanese pirates fled in a hurry, and the leader of the Japanese pirates wanted to reorganize the army and make a comeback, and it would take a lot of work, so it was a bit sloppy.Unexpectedly, although the Japanese pirate infantry did not counterattack, the Japanese pirate leader ordered the archers to quietly climb to the top of the wall.Just now we were busy stripping off the armor from the corpse of the Japanese pirates and putting it on ourselves. The Jin Yiwei who was ordered to guard against the Japanese pirates only focused on the two corner gates in the north and south, but did not pay attention to the top of the wall.Moreover, the leader of the Japanese pirates knew that Hong Hu was the leader of the crowd, so he made up his mind to shoot the horse first when shooting people, and capture the king first when capturing the thief, and ordered the Japanese pirate archers to shoot Hong Hu with all their strength first.In this way, dozens of Japanese archers shot all the feathered arrows at Hong Hu. No matter how good Hong Hu's martial arts is, I have three heads and six arms, and I can't resist dozens of feathered arrows shooting at Hong Hu at the same time.

When all the guards in Jinyi saw that Hong Hu had been hit by an arrow, they were shocked.There are a few Jinyiwei who are not weak in martial arts, and are extremely alert.Hearing the sound of feathered arrows piercing the air, he immediately bent his bow and set up an arrow, and shot back at the Japanese pirates who climbed up the stone wall at the west head and the top of the two corner gates.Feather arrows were everywhere, and four or five Japanese archers screamed and fell from the top of the wall.The rest of the Japanese archers were startled, and immediately retreated behind the wall, not daring to shoot arrows at the crowd for a while.

Li Qiufeng supported Hong Hu and made him sit on the ground slowly.He wanted to heal Hong Hu's wounds, but when he saw that Hong Hu was not only blinded in one eye, but also that the long arrow that had been shot into his throat had pierced several inches into his flesh, his heart sank immediately.More than a dozen Jinyi guards held Xiuchun swords and surrounded Li Qiufeng and Hong Hu in the middle to prevent the Japanese archers from firing cold arrows to hurt people again.

I saw Hong Hu trembling, his mouth couldn't stop moving, as if he wanted to speak, but he couldn't speak, he could only utter a strange cry of "ho ho".Li Qiufeng wanted to pull the feather arrow out of Hong Hu's throat several times, but he knew that once the arrow was pulled out, Hong Hu would die of anger in all likelihood, he hesitated in his heart, raised his left hand several times, But let it go again.

Just when Li Qiufeng was hesitating, Hong Hu raised his trembling right hand, held the shaft of the feathered arrow stuck in his throat, and pulled out the feathered arrow forcefully.As soon as the arrow tip left his throat, a bloody arrow spurted out from his wound.Hong Hu coughed dryly twice, and said in a trembling voice, "I really hate..."

Before Hong Kong Tiger could finish his sentence, he suddenly opened his mouth wide, a mouthful of blood spewed out, his head drooped powerlessly, and he died of exhaustion.Seeing this situation, Li Qiufeng felt a pain in his heart, but there was nothing he could do, so he carefully placed Hong Hu's body on the ground, then stood up, and said loudly to the guards in Jinyi: "Master Hong has died for the country! We have to do it for you!" He took revenge. It’s just that the Japanese pirates are powerful now, we can’t stay here and wait to die. We have to get out of the county magistrate’s office as soon as possible, escape from the city, meet up with Mr. Xu, and then try to deal with the Japanese pirates. Allow Japanese pirates and clowns to run amok? My lords, if you don’t want to be cut off by Japanese pirates, you must make up your mind to kill the generals with me!"
