Chapter 640 Dai Puyu

Dinghai Wharf, Front Line of Defense

"Brothers, the Japanese pirates are about to land. Everyone cheer up and do their jobs well! Don't blame me for being rude to anyone who wants to play tricks."

Under the urging of the vanguard, a group of small soldiers each carried a heavy bundle of arrows and moved forward.

Everyone was sweating profusely.

Maybe it was hot or maybe it was a weak body. When the last person lost his mind, he was already out of breath, and he was even more shaky when walking.

"Let's go!" Suddenly there was a furious voice from behind, "You're dawdling, haven't you eaten?"

The little soldier hadn't realized what happened when someone kicked his butt hard.

Alas.

He couldn't help but tilted his body, and fell headlong to the side of the road.

"you……"

The arrow was heavy, and it took a while before the thin soldier struggled to get up from below.

However, after seeing clearly the armor and sharp blade on the kicker, he silently swallowed back the words on his lips.

"Yes, yes, the little one will go right away."

The guard who kicked the person ignored him at all, just smiled and led Dai Puyu behind him.

"General, this way please."

Finally, she gave him a hard look.

"What are you doing lying there? Why don't you get up and send the arrows to the front? The Japanese pirates will land immediately. If you delay the arrows ahead, even if you have ten heads, you won't be able to cut them off."

"Yes Yes Yes."

The little soldier didn't dare to complain at all, he quickly picked up the arrow with all his strength, and wobbled after his companion who was walking far ahead.

Dai Puyu frowned, "Which bastard recruited this soldier?"

Why are you as thin as a stick of firewood?
Not to mention letting him charge forward, even moving something would be a problem.

Wouldn't it be a waste of time for such a thin monkey to recruit into the army?

"This..." The guards nearby all looked at each other in blank dismay.

The entire Legion is so numerous that it is almost impossible for them to recognize everyone.

What's more, in the battle of Dinghai Wharf last year, the Central Army lost troops and lost generals.

Afterwards, Feng Haohan could only redeploy the personnel of each army, for example, one person from the rear army of the central army was sent to the damaged front army.

In addition, Fang Yinbao stared at "Qi Kongxiang" so hard that Feng Haohan could only frantically move things around to make the ledger look perfect.

Now the military personnel are in a mess.

It is even more impossible for the generals to recognize every soldier under their command.

"That's it."

Dai Puyu also knew some of the mysteries, so she waved her hand and ignored it.

A group of people went up to the nearest watchtower.

Dai Puyu raised the binoculars and looked towards the sea to the east.

"The artillery fire on the high ground is very intensive. How is the current battle situation?"

"Return to the general, so far our side has sunk thirteen enemy ships and injured countless people. However, the Japanese pirates are very close to the shore and are working hard to build a pontoon bridge."

"Build a pontoon bridge?" A personal guard smiled and squeezed over to compliment, "The general is worthy of being from a family of generals, and some substances in his hands seem to have no effect, but they will always turn decay into magic in your hands. "

"For example, those wrecked ships, if the general hadn't ordered them to be sunk collectively as rocks, I'm afraid the Japanese pirates would have been able to land directly now."

Thousands of wears, no flattery.

Dai Puyu felt very relieved when he heard it, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"The Japanese pirates are rampant, fishermen can't get out to sea, and it's useless to keep the fishing boats. We came all the way from Ruinan County to help, and there is nothing wrong with them sinking some boats. There are people who are rich."

"The general is wise."

Dai Puyu nodded, "The general ordered that the Japanese pirates are about to land, and all the ballistas, catapults, and bows and arrows in front of them are aimed at the pontoon bridges. The general will compete with Fang Yuanwu above to see who has the stronger firepower!" "

"Yes!" The orderly hurried away.

"General," the guard approached with a smile again, "Do you want to continue digging those trenches?"

Dai Puyu pondered, but did not respond immediately.

He couldn't help but think of what Lin Hanmo said before he left.

"Cousin, the Japanese pirates' homeland has been destroyed, and they have no way out. The combat power and will emanating from this are by no means comparable to the remote and barbarians we imagined in the past. Therefore, you must not be careless when confronting head-on. Be fully prepared.”

"...Especially the trenches. According to the combat experience at Dinghai Wharf last year, every trench is an extremely cruel meat grinder. I hope you will pay more attention to it and actively use it..."

The little guard didn't know what the general was thinking, so he continued to babble.

"The front needs a lot of strategic materials such as arrows, crossbows, arrows, rocks, bombs, kerosene, etc., but because of the messy trenches dug on the ground, brothers need to climb up and down to move the materials, which is very troublesome, causing everyone to complain..."

"How many trenches have we dug?" Dai Puyu asked suddenly.

The military adviser next to him quickly flipped through the notebook he was carrying.

"Returning to the general, each trench is huge in size. It is long and runs across the entire pier from north to south; it is about two feet wide; and it is half a foot deep. At the same time, with the piled up earth ditches, the total depth can reach a little over a foot."

"According to the plan, a total of six trenches of this size need to be dug, and three of them have been roughly completed."

"Very good." Dai Puyu nodded in satisfaction.

He raised the binoculars and looked ahead a few times, but there was too much smoke, but he couldn't see anything clearly.

"When will the other three trenches be completed?"

The little military division quickly flipped through other data.

"Back to the general, if no additional manpower is sent, based on the previous excavation speed estimate, it should take another half a month to 20 days if there are no accidents."

"So long?" Dai Puyu couldn't help frowning.

"That's right," the little bodyguard came up again, "General, my subordinates feel that those trenches don't need to be dug anymore."

He counted on his fingers.

"From the beginning of the fight to the present, in less than an hour, the Japanese pirates have lost thirteen battalion-class ships, which shows the power of the army's luggage. At the same time, our side has almost no losses. It can be said that the casualties on both sides are not enough. Proportion."

"In addition, Ishikawa Taki has no food in hand. As time goes by, they must rush to land, and the enemy ships will be crowded together on a larger scale. It will be easier for our side to damage and sink them."

"And those trenches will have to be dug for half a month or even 20 days. Maybe all the Japanese pirates will be dead by then."

"Makes sense."

"indeed."

Others also voiced their approval.

Dai Puyu couldn't help raising the binoculars again, and looked towards the high ground on the left wing where Fang Yuanwu was.

Looking at the densely packed trebuchets, which kept dropping fireballs and stones, he couldn't help feeling agitated.

"Then stop digging. Order the front-line brothers to concentrate on blocking the coast, and everyone should not be stingy with the materials in their hands. Be sure to let the pirates come and die one by one."

"Yes!"

Dai Puyu's order was quickly transmitted to the front, and the clanging sound of stone digging stopped.

Call ~
All the engineers let out a long sigh.

Many people even threw the guy in their hands far away in the first place.

This is one of the top ten piers in Yunchui.

In order to allow the goods to flow as quickly as possible, an unknown number of layers of Panlong stones were buried under the ground of the entire Dinghai Wharf, and the surface was paved as hard as iron.

Not to mention digging a half-foot-deep trench, it is not easy to dig the ground.

Now that the forward asked to stop, everyone couldn't help but want to applaud loudly.

During the Dinghai Wharf defense battle last year, the number of Zhang Yang's northern guards was small, and I don't know how they dug out these trenches...

"Kill it."

At the same time, the first batch of Japanese pirates at sea officially rushed to the shore.
