He was so persuasive that he actually practiced extraordinary

However, his previous display of brilliance made the soldiers on the ship feel a little afraid of him.

The people of the Great Sakura Empire, a arrogant country, generally despise their opponents, but for those soldiers who have experienced life and death disasters on the ship, the shadow of fear still shrouds them deep in their hearts.

These soldiers were full of fighting spirit at first, believing that they were serving their country. As long as they could capture the Kyushu Empire, Sakura would have unlimited development opportunities.

But they never expected that they would encounter such a powerful opponent before even setting foot in the territory of Kyushu.

Zhang Beixing's amazing fighting ability left them with indelible psychological trauma. They have not yet recovered from the shock and can't help but wonder if it was all just a dream?

If all that was true, then why were they still standing safely on the boat at this moment?

Moreover, wasn’t the person struggling in the water Zhang Beixing who had defeated them?

If all that was an illusion, then why did they all have the same dream? Moreover, most of their ships had been destroyed, and now only one-third of their original size remained.

All these signs indicate that the experience at that time was real, and Zhang Beixing's strength should not be underestimated. He is an extremely powerful existence.

Thinking of this, another soldier could no longer suppress his inner panic and stepped forward to report to General Matsui at the foot of the mountain.

"General, you must not underestimate the enemy! Zhang Beixing's strength is extremely terrifying. What happened at that time was true, not our imagination. You must be careful and do not let your guard down."

When Yamashita Matsui saw the soldier coming to report, he couldn't help but feel angry.

He has fought on the battlefield for many years. Does he still need a soldier who has never been on the battlefield to teach him how to fight?
From being a rookie to retiring after achieving success, and then to now putting on the armor again, he has gone through countless hardships and can achieve victory even when facing a huge disparity in military strength.

Now they have a large number of people, while the other side has only one person, who is like a drowned rat.

However, his soldiers were intimidated by the enemy's strength and came here to persuade him not to move forward.

How is this possible? They were just frightened by Zhang Beixing's trick. Yamashita Matsui believed that the soldier's words had a very bad impact on the morale of the entire army.

"I tell you, with this general here, we will definitely win today's battle!"

"If you continue to disrupt the morale of the army, get out of here immediately!"

After Yamashita Matsui finished speaking, he glanced at the soldiers standing beside him again and found that many soldiers on the ship were looking at the two of them.

He stared into the eyes of the soldiers and found that they were filled with fear.

Yamashita Matsui was furious. How could the soldiers of the Great Sakura Empire be so afraid of an outsider?
He felt angry again, thinking that the soldiers nowadays were worse than the previous generation. How could they defeat the Kyushu Empire if they were so afraid of death?

He had no fear of Zhang Beixing and only thought that he was a mysterious person.

Now that he has come out of the mountains, as long as he is on the battlefield, that tiger will no longer be arrogant and domineering.

At this moment, most of Zhang Beixing's body was submerged in the sea water, his clothes were soaked, and he looked extremely embarrassed.

Yamashita Matsui looked at the man floating on the sea and found it hard to understand why such a seemingly frail person could make the soldiers of the Great Sakura Empire so terrified.

Zhang Beixing was already overjoyed in his heart. He didn't expect that this general was so stupid. Has his IQ declined as he got older?
I was standing on top of a huge wave before, but now I pretended that I couldn't swim and fell into the water, but the other party didn't find it suspicious at all?

Zhang Beixing originally thought that his clumsy performance might not be able to deceive the other party, and he would need to spend more time to deal with it.

He was hesitating whether to implement the plan, but he didn't expect that before he could start to play weak, the opponent's ship turned around and headed towards him.

Zhang Beixing's original battle plan was to defeat them first. If they escaped back to the Great Sakura Empire, he would leave them alive and let their fleet return with the bodies.

If they choose to continue fighting, they will all be shot down and become food for sea creatures.

However, the development of the situation was beyond his expectations. Although they retreated for a while, they soon turned around and rushed towards him.

And there was one more person on the boat, that was Yamashita Matsui. Zhang Beixing had heard of the legend about this person when he was young.

But he did not think that the other party was terrible. No matter how powerful he was, he was just a mortal, and a mortal of the Great Sakura Empire.

Besides, this person is already old. Thinking of this, Zhang Beixing recalled the traditional virtues of the Kyushu Empire of "respecting the elderly and loving the young."

Considering his advanced age, he was left with his body intact and given a good lesson before he died.

He had made up his mind to teach the other party a profound lesson, to make him understand that his skills were not magic, but the real thing.

Zhang Beixing decided to teach the other party, but if he stood on a ten-meter-high wave and the other party stood on a warship, the distance was too far, which was not conducive to teaching.

So he thought of a better way and decided to pretend to be defeated, fall into the sea, and then try to get the other side to rescue him and get him on board.

Once on board, they would certainly capture him, but they would never kill him.

It's not that they have good intentions, such virtue does not exist in the army of the Great Sakura Empire.

They didn't kill him because he was still useful.

If they can convince him to work for the Great Sakura Empire, he will become the Great Sakura Empire's most capable assistant.

However, this would never happen. With Zhang Beixing's knowledge and experiences in the first half of his life, betraying his motherland is something he would never do.

They must have understood this, because the Kyushu Empire was most famous for its virtues, and patriotism was the most important of them.

The Great Sakura Empire will not let such a valuable life disappear easily. They will find ways to bring Zhang Beixing back to their country and use him to negotiate with the Kyushu Empire.

But Zhang Beixing would never give them such an opportunity. Once on board the warship, he would have a good meeting with these people.

Yamashita Matsui didn't know what the other party was thinking at the moment. He was just wondering whether the other party had really fallen into the water.

If the other person really fell into the water, he must have been exhausted in the sea. If they rescued him, it would only benefit them, not harm them.

But if the other party was pretending, and was actually proficient in swimming but pretending to fall into the water, then rescuing him might pose a threat to their ships and soldiers.

The soldier who had just gone up to persuade the general saw the general stop and a thoughtful look on his face, and thought that the general had listened to his words.

When the soldier next to him saw the hesitation on Yamashita Matsui's face, hope suddenly ignited in his heart. He has a wife and children at home, and he doesn't want to die in vain in this sea.

So, he pushed the soldier who had just gone up to speak, leaned close to his ear and whispered: "Go up and talk to General Matsui at the foot of the mountain, and ask him to retreat quickly." A general standing on the other side wiped the sweat from his face and echoed: "Yes, yes, Zhang Beixing is too powerful, we can't defeat him."

However, the soldier who had just gone up had been scolded by Yamashita Matsui and was feeling depressed. Although Yamashita Matsui was thinking about it now, he didn't want to go over again before he came to a conclusion.

"I don't plan to go. If you two want to go, go by yourselves. I don't want to make him unhappy." A soldier expressed his position firmly.

After hearing this, the other two soldiers began to murmur in their hearts. They were also full of resistance to this war. Their country's territory was small. If it could be wider, even if it was only one thousand square meters, perhaps they would not have to set foot on this battlefield and face this life-and-death situation.

However, the reality is cruel. They know that if everyone dies, it will be an immeasurable loss to the Great Sakura Empire.

From any perspective, retreat seems to be their best option at the moment.

But the war was imminent, they were already on the battlefield, and a large number of the country's soldiers had died heroically.

At this moment, General Yamashita Matsui's expression suddenly became extremely firm, his eyes were fixed on Zhang Beixing who was struggling on the sea, as if he was about to rush forward in an instant.

This scene frightened the soldier next to him. He knew very well that if he hesitated any longer, he would be the next to die.

"General, please think twice! We can't act rashly, otherwise we will be blamed by the country and we won't be able to bear it." He persuaded anxiously.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Yamashita Matsui's originally serious face suddenly became hideous and terrifying.

"In the midst of a great war, how dare you talk nonsense like this? Do you want to shake our morale?" he roared.

Yamashita Matsui was extremely anxious at the moment, and he couldn't decide whether to save Zhang Beixing or not.

The soldiers' opposition made him even more angry. Did they think that he was too old and unable to be the leader?
Just then, some people in the team started talking about his age.

"General, you are old. For safety reasons, let's retreat." said one person.

As soon as this statement came out, everyone agreed.

Some people were worried that the general might have an accident during the war, while others questioned whether he could take on such an important task since he had not fought in many years.

But more importantly, the enemy they faced, Zhang Beixing, was too powerful.

Whether in the past, present or future, or even in the entire history of the world, it is difficult to find an opponent that can match them. Fighting against such an enemy, they have almost no chance of winning.

"That's right, that's right, the enemy is too strong. If we continue like this, we will definitely be defeated." Someone whispered.

Yamashita Matsui was already furious, and he became even more furious when he heard this.

He turned his head sharply, trying to find the person who had dared to speak so recklessly. Seeing this, the people in the team immediately fell silent, standing straight, as if no one had spoken just now.

Yamashita Matsui urgently needed an outlet for his anger.

At this moment, he noticed that a soldier in the corner had not yet closed his mouth.

"It's you! Who told you to talk nonsense without permission? You are disrupting the morale of the army! If anything unexpected happens in the war, it will be all your responsibility!" He walked forward with a roar, grabbed the man by the collar and lifted him up high.

"Were you the one who was talking just now? You have disrupted my military morale, so you must pay the price!" Yamashita Matsui said, and without waiting for the other party to answer, he pushed him into the sea.

The soldiers around were all shocked when they saw this scene. Before they could come to their senses, the man fell into the sea with a "splash" and disappeared among the waves.

Because the man fell into the sea so suddenly, he forgot to breathe for a moment and sank straight down.

After his anger, Yamashita Matsui gradually realized that his actions were quite impulsive and he secretly regretted it in his heart.

However, the man had been thrown into the sea by him, and it was probably difficult to find any trace of him at this moment.

At this point, he could only bite the bullet and turn to the stunned soldiers on the ship and say:
"This is the result of disturbing the morale of the army! If anyone dares to speak nonsense again, his fate will be the same as his!"

The soldiers were terrified by Yamashita Matsui's brutal appearance. They kept silent, fearing that if they said something careless, they would follow in that man's footsteps and be thrown into the sea to feed the fish by the old general.

Zhang Beixing stood on the boat, feeling puzzled by the entanglement of these people. He thought, isn't the most important thing now to rescue him aboard and then interrogate him? He had been in the sea for a long time, and the cold water made him feel uncomfortable.

The people on the boat had not yet taken care of their own affairs, and just now they threw someone overboard. Zhang Beixing was puzzled by the old general's actions.

If they really cared about the country, why would they treat innocent soldiers like this?

This was the first time he had seen such a selfish general.

Zhang Beixing sighed in his heart, this was truly an eye-opener.

Just then, he looked down and found a colorful jellyfish floating on the water.

Although the jellyfish was beautiful, it was in danger because a giant fish was following it.

Zhang Beixing didn't know what kind of fish it was, but judging from its big open mouth and sharp teeth, it was obviously a carnivore.

Seeing that the fish was about to catch up with the jellyfish, Zhang Beixing felt that the jellyfish was really beautiful and it would be a pity if it was swallowed by the ugly fish.

So, he decided to help and dived down to rescue the jellyfish.

Anyway, the troubles of those people on the ship will take some time to deal with.

He dived into the water and grabbed the big fish. The fish struggled desperately in his hands, but to no avail.

Zhang Beixing was extremely strong and pushed the fish away.

The fish was so disoriented by the sudden change that it even swam in the opposite direction.

It is said that fish only have a memory of seven seconds. The fish soon forgot what had happened and swam away happily. Zhang Beixing turned around and tried to find the jellyfish, but suddenly felt himself being lifted up by a hand.

He recognized it as the uniform of the Great Sakura Empire, and although he didn't know whose hands it was, he was very familiar with the clothes. He remembered his purpose, so he continued to play dead, pretending to be drowning.

After the man pulled him out of the sea, he immediately checked his condition. Seeing that Zhang Beixing seemed to be unconscious, the man was obviously relieved.

Yamashita Matsui originally doubted whether Zhang Beixing had really fallen into the water. However, when he looked back, he found that the man was actually sinking slowly, and he couldn't help but feel secretly happy. (End of this chapter)
