A knife in love

Chapter 2792
Li Qiufeng was anxious and didn't bother to be polite to him, so he said, "Where did Mr. Zhang Guizhang go?"

The officer and soldier said respectfully: "Master Zhang led us to chase down the Japanese pirates and rushed here. Seeing that he was about to catch up with the escaped Japanese pirates, a group of Japanese pirates rushed out from the city to meet them. Master Zhang was worried about the Japanese pirates. After escaping into the city, close the city gate and give us a urn to catch the turtle, so he brought 100 brothers into the city and left more than [-] brothers outside the city. While guarding the city gate, they waited for the man. It turned out that there was a battalion of defeated Japanese pirates coming. We tried our best to stop them, but there were too many Japanese pirates, we couldn't resist, and watched them rush into the city."

Hearing what the officers and soldiers said, Li Qiufeng was clear in his heart, knowing that Zhang Gui was determined to capture or kill the Japanese pirate leader, so he pursued the Japanese pirate leader closely and rushed all the way to the north gate of Dongliao County.When the Japanese pirate leader led the army to kill Laoweng Mountain, he left behind a few troops in Dongliao County.Seeing the Lord General fleeing back in embarrassment, the Japanese pirates in the city went out to meet him.Zhang Guisheng was afraid that after he led his troops into the city, the Japanese pirates would close the city gate and cut off his escape route, so he left more than a hundred officers and soldiers to stand near the city gate, guarding the city gate while waiting for the barbarian horse army to come forward. Come to help.He himself led [-] officers and soldiers into the city, desperately chasing and killing the Japanese pirate leader.It's just that tens of thousands of defeated Japanese pirates fled to the north gate of Dongliao County, and the hundreds of officers and soldiers guarding the left of the city gate couldn't stop them at all.Zhang Gui's army was extremely strict. Although these officers and soldiers knew that they could not withstand the siege of the defeated Japanese pirates, they did not dare to escape and fought hard against the Japanese pirates.Fortunately, the defeated Japanese pirates were terrified and had no intention of fighting at all. They only wanted to flee and did not fight the officers and soldiers with all their strength.Otherwise, no matter how brave these officers and soldiers are, they will never be able to withstand the mad attack of thousands of defeated Japanese pirates.

Thinking of this, Li Qiufeng nodded, and said in his mouth: "I was ordered by Mr. Xu Yingyang, the Fusi governor of Jinyiwei North Town, to come to help Mr. Zhang. Although there were many Japanese pirates defeated, they were scared out of their wits. I only want to run for my life, and I have no intention of fighting to the death here. Moreover, the barbarian army will arrive in no time, enough to kill the Japanese pirates, so you don’t have to be afraid. I must catch up with Mr. Zhang as soon as possible, so I won’t delay here.”

After Li Qiufeng finished speaking, he rushed towards the city gate without waiting for the officer and soldier to answer.At this time, most of the defeated Japanese pirates had rushed into the city, and thousands of Japanese pirates could not enter the city for a while because they were crowded together at the city gate. Nan fled and fled back to the warship as soon as possible.Li Qiufeng and others rode their horses into the city. Although there were defeated Japanese pirates everywhere, no one dared to step forward to stop them.

Li Qiufeng galloped his horse through the city gate and rushed into the city in an instant.At this time, it was dark, and there were still fires burning everywhere in the city.Looking around, as far as the eye can see, there are ruins and ruins, and it is completely impossible to recognize that this is Dongliao County.When everyone saw the corpses of many Han people lying in disorder in front of the city gate, they hated the cruel and vicious Japanese pirates even more.Annoyed, Wang Xiaoyu galloped up his horse to catch up with a few Japanese pirate soldiers who were desperately fleeing. Holding the spears tightly in both hands, he smashed and swept under the horse without thinking, beating the two Japanese pirate sergeants until their brains were split to death.The few remaining Japanese pirates were terrified, and ran away desperately, jumped into a half-burned house on the side of the road, and disappeared in an instant.

Wang Xiaoyu killed two Japanese pirate soldiers, and the lingering hatred in her heart was still lingering. Just as she was about to find some more defeated Japanese pirates to vent her anger, Murong Danyan galloped up to her side and said loudly to her, "Brother Li and Mr. Qi have already sent to the city. Go, let's not delay here!"

Wang Xiaoyu had no choice but to rush south with Murong Danyan. Along the way, he saw countless defeated Japanese pirates fleeing everywhere, and he didn't dare to stop Li Qiufeng and others.Li Qiufeng wanted to catch up with Zhang Gui, he had no intention of getting entangled with these defeated soldiers, he only cared about galloping southward on his horse.Although Wang Xiaoyu was unwilling, he did not dare to stop and kill the pirates.

Li Qiufeng led the crowd across Dongliao County from north to south, and when they rushed to the vicinity of the magistrate's yamen, there was no sign of the defeated Japanese pirates.Qi Jiu followed Li Qiufeng, seeing that almost all the houses on both sides of the road had been burned down, he thought to himself that the Japanese pirate master was shot by Li Chengliang, so he could only run away desperately.Zhang Gui led the officers and soldiers to hunt down the Japanese pirate leader and was blocked at the north gate of Dongliao County.However, a few Japanese pirates couldn't stop the attack of Zhang Gui's gang at all, and the officers and soldiers followed the Japanese pirate leader and attacked the city.Then the defeated Japanese pirates also fled into the city, desperately fleeing to the south of the city.We chased all the way, and finally rushed to the center of Dongliao County, leaving behind the defeated Japanese pirates who had fled into the city.In this way, the Japanese pirate leader is very weak, even if he escapes to the shore, as long as he does not have time to escape to the warship, we have a chance to capture or kill him.

The crowd rushed past the magistrate's office and continued to chase south of the city.At this time, the sky was almost completely dark, and it was already difficult to see what was around.The sound of horseshoes was earth-shattering, as if the ground was trembling.A few flames could be vaguely seen in the distance, but they were far away and could not be seen clearly.

When everyone rushed to the gate of the South City, they couldn't help being shocked when they saw the situation in front of them.I saw that the gate of the south city had collapsed, and there were bricks and rubble everywhere.There are several gaps of different sizes, which only allow two or three people to walk side by side.Li Qiufeng rushed out of the city from a gap on his horse, while thinking to himself, Xu Yingyang asked the Japanese spy Jiang Shiye to lead the people to build the city wall. How can the city wall built up be of great use?The army of Japanese pirates attacked the city, and by some unknown means, they dug down the city wall and entered the city.

Li Qiufeng rushed out of the southern city with his horse, and reined in his mount thirty or forty feet away from the city wall.He knew that the wall of the southern city had collapsed and there were only a few openings to pass through. It would take some time for more than 200 barbarian horse troops to rush out of the city through these openings, so he reined in his mounts and waited for all the barbarian horse troops to leave the city. , Go after Zhang Gui again.

After Li Qiufeng stopped, Qi Jiu also reined in his mount, turned his head and said to Li Qiufeng, "Brother Li, I'm afraid something is wrong."

Li Qiufeng was startled, and turned his head to look at Qi Jiu, but it was completely dark, and he could only see Qi Jiu's figure vaguely, but he couldn't see the expression on Qi Jiu's face at all.I heard Qi Jiu continue to say: "The wall of the southern city was only built in a few days, and it was built hastily by driving out the people. It will definitely not be strong. But it is not an easy task to dig the wall to collapse. When I was in Dengzhouwei, I saw the navy test the cannons. At that time, I heard a navy official say that the cannons on the navy warships can not only be used to attack enemy warships, but also can be used to bombard them. The city wall. If you encounter a fortified city, you might as well move the cannons on the warship ashore and bombard the city wall with more than a dozen cannons. Much easier."
