marquis of jingan

Chapter 543 Damn it!

Because of his "concern with military affairs", Shen Yi lived in the barracks for the next four or five days, and never went out of the gate of the barracks once.

He got information about Li Jielang's Ministry from Di Baosi. In the past few days, two thousand households who were arrested by the anti-Japanese army, and several hundred households who grew up on seaside islands, worked together to figure out a specific battle plan.

According to the original intelligence of the imperial court, the lair of Japanese pirate Li Jielang should be Dongtou Island not far from Yueqing. This is also the largest island in Wenzhou Prefecture. Many people settled on the island decades ago, but nearly 20 In the year of the Japanese pirates at sea, most of the people here moved to the inland.

Because the local government and army have been too weak in recent years, they have actually lost control of Dongtou Island. The last time three groups of Japanese pirates harassed Wenzhou Prefecture together, the three pirate leaders gathered on Dongtou Island, and Command all the Japanese pirates remotely.

At this time, in the account of the anti-Japanese army, two thousand households and a group of hundreds of households sat together, and a fairly detailed chart was hung above the account.

Ling Su pointed to the largest Dongtou Island on the map, and coughed: "Everyone, we all thought that the Japanese pirates' lair was on this big island."

After speaking, Ling Su glanced at Shen Yi, seeing that Shen Yi had no expression, he continued: "However, after Mr. Shen's investigation, this group of pirates is extremely cunning, and Dongtou Island is just a place for them to trade with outsiders."

As he spoke, Ling Qianhu pointed to a further place and said, "And this is their real lair."

Everyone looked in the direction of Ling Su's finger.

In the direction of Ling Su's finger, there is a small island with three words written on the bottom of the island.

Beiji Island.

Compared with Dongtou Island, this island is only a small island, and it is not even much bigger than Wusha Island, which was wiped out by the Anti-Japanese Army before.

To be honest, people in this era are still far from being able to understand coastal geography. If such an island hadn't been drawn on the sea chart, even the fishermen along the coast would hardly know the existence of this island.

Because it is far away from the sea.

A full 130 miles!

After a pause, Ling Su said, "In the past few days, we have agreed on a regulation."

"The three large ships of our army are too conspicuous and not easy to hide, so we plan to send these three large ships to and from Dongtou Island. Each ship will carry 300 people, plus some small boats, making up 500 people. Japanese pirates from Dongtou Island."

"In the past two months, our army has cleared the pirates along the coast, which will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the pirates, so the momentum on Dongtou Island will be bigger, and then the rest of the boats will rush to Beiji Island at night!"

"After the fight on Beiji Island, the battle on Dongtou Island will almost be over. At that time, the brothers on Dongtou Island will rush to Beiji Island to support and completely wipe out the pirates on Beiji Island!"

After the specific battle plan was finished, Ling Su turned to look at Shen Yi and bowed his head slightly.

It was only at this time that Master Shen slowly stood up. He looked at the crowd and said, "Everyone, this time to clear up the Japanese pirates is scheduled for two days later. At that time, Mr. Shen will personally accompany the army to conquer Beiji Island."

"This battle will not be as easy as Wusha Island. You must not take it lightly, and be prepared for a hard fight."

"If this battle is won, it means that our anti-Japanese army has the ability to face any Japanese pirates at sea."

Speaking of this, Shen Yi glanced at the crowd, and said lightly: "You all know that my anti-Japanese army is a guard. Since it is a guard, there should be a commander, several deputy envoys, and five thousand households. .”

"Now, the commander and deputy commander of the anti-Japanese army are all vacant, and there are only two actual positions in five thousand households."

"There are still many vacancies."

Master Shen looked calm, and said lightly: "This battle is won, I can't guarantee anything else, but I can guarantee that as long as you have credit, there is a lot of room for advancement."

In fact, there was someone in command of the Anti-Japanese Army, and that was Li Mu, the son of Jin Dynasty. However, Li Mu is now in Jiankang, and he can be regarded as a "remote leader", so what Master Shen said cannot be regarded as a picture.

Shen Yi looked at everyone.

"If this battle is fought well, our anti-Japanese army may be promoted to the capital."

"By the time…"

Master Shen narrowed his eyes, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid everyone will be promoted to a higher level."

And this sentence is pure painting.

The household department of the imperial court is unwilling to raise an additional new army. As far as the current [-] anti-Japanese troops are concerned, the source of most of the military salaries is Li Mu who forcibly ransacked his home. As the capital, the cost will increase exponentially. Even if the emperor has this idea, he doesn't have the money for the time being.

Unless one day, the [-] anti-Japanese troops wiped out all the Japanese pirates in the coastal waters and restored the smooth flow of Dachen's sea route, at that time, the imperial court would have a large amount of income, and then it would be possible to expand again.

But painting cakes is still very useful after all.

Hearing that they could get rich after winning the battle, the generals of the anti-Japanese army were all excited, wishing to lead their troops out immediately and pocket the ready-made credit.

After the mobilization meeting was over, these anti-Japanese army generals immediately went down to prepare.

Two days passed quickly, and at ten o'clock in the morning on the third day, three large ships of the Anti-Japanese Army and almost [-] small and medium-sized ships gathered at the Yueqing Wharf. As the flagship in the middle of the three large ships issued a semaphore, all All the ships set out to sea together, with great momentum.

After traveling more than ten miles, the fleet parted ways. The three big ships led some small boats to Dongtou Island, while the others headed to Beiji Island.

As for Master Shen Yi, he was naturally in the latter's fleet.

He sat in a medium-sized ship, a very ordinary ship, neither in the middle nor the flag of the flagship.

There were almost fifty people in this boat, including three hundred households, and Lingsu, a thousand households.

In Shen Yi's cabin, after hesitating for a while, Ling Su said, "Mr. Shen, what I mean by this subordinate is that you should go to the flagship and go to Dongtou Island with Xue Qianhu, where the Japanese pirates gather at Beiji Island. "

Ling Su whispered: "This subordinate is really worried about your safety."

Shen Yi patted the iron armor on his body, and said loudly: "I am the imperial envoy in charge of the Anti-Japanese Army. Where the main battlefield is, I will naturally be there."

"I'm sitting here, Ling Qianhu don't talk nonsense, this time you fight well, you and my brothers will get promoted and get rich together, if the fight is not good, we might as well die together on Beiji Island."

Ling Su quickly said: "You are serious, even if we fight hard this time, we will not lose to the Japanese pirates."

Shen Yi stood up with a smile, walked out of the cabin, and came to the deck outside. He asked the experienced sailor on the ship, and after learning the direction of Beiji Island, he looked in the direction of Beiji Island.

At this time, they were still about a hundred miles away from Beiji Island.

Naturally, the island cannot be seen.

After Shen Yi blew the sea breeze on the deck for a while, he went back to sleep in the cabin.

He had exhausted his mind these past few days, so even though he was on the boat, he slept soundly. This time, he slept until midnight, close to the early morning.

It was Ling Su who woke him up.

"My lord, we are already approaching Beiji Island."

Shen Yi woke up immediately, stood up and put on his armor, and asked, "How far is it?"

"It's five miles at most."

Shen Yi opened the window of the cabin and glanced at the sky outside.

In the early hours of the morning, the sky was almost dawn.

Shen Yi didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately ordered: "Close close to Beiji Island immediately, and try to land quietly. If you are discovered, use artillery to cover the landing of the wolf soldiers. Remember to use more firearms to minimize casualties!"

Ling Su nodded, and immediately went down to give orders.

The fleet began to approach Beiji Island!

When the sky was getting dark, Shen Yi's boat was only one or less than two miles away from Beiji Island.

More than [-] steps is beyond the distance of an arrow. Even if there is a downwind, bows and arrows cannot shoot this distance. Except for artillery, it belongs to the absolute safe distance of this era. Shen Yi and Ling Su will go to each other at this distance before landing. command.

At this time, Shen Yi's ship had been replaced with the flag of the flagship, and the messengers began to stand on the deck and wave semaphore, commanding the rest of the ships according to Ling Su's order.

At this time, the [-] boats had already been discovered by Japanese pirates, and the Japanese pirates on the island had already started to fight back.

Ling Su stood on the deck and roared angrily, "The gunners aimed at the south and covered the landing of the wolf soldiers!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a gigantic long arrow from an ordinary spear shot over with a "swoosh" sound!
This long arrow hit the flagship where Shen Yi was, and the long arrow did not stop. It was nailed into the hull of the ship for a few feet, directly smashing a board of the ship!

After Ling Su heard the sound, he immediately stood on the deck and looked down. When he saw the long arrow, he was stunned!
"bed…"

He lost his voice: "Bed crossbow!"

This anti-Japanese soldier, Qianhu, turned his head directly, and looked at Shen Yi who was watching the battle not far behind, his voice trembling with fright: "Master Shen, bed crossbow, quickly enter the cabin!"

The reason why he is so afraid is not because he is afraid of death, but because he is afraid that Shen Yi will die...

After all, if Master Shen dies here, not only will his political life end, but his physical life will also end...

Shen Yi couldn't help frowning too.

He looked at Beiji Island in front of him with a solemn expression.

bed crossbow?

Isn't this something only available to the military?Japanese pirates too?

Could it be given by the Zhao Clan?

wrong.

Shen Yi himself denied this idea.

It is impossible for Zhao Clan to be so stupid.

Master Shen looked further north.

At this moment, he seemed to understand something in his heart.

I understand why in the past 30 to [-] years, why the Japanese pirates in Dachen Coast have suddenly risen, and why these Japanese pirates have been suppressed repeatedly.

Reminiscent of the tragedy caused by Japanese pirates in Taozhu, Taizhou Prefecture...

These fools...

Damn it...!
