I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 962 Situation Reversal
The gunfire gradually died down.

No one expected that fifteen minutes ago, the pirates were still in high spirits, ready to counterattack.

But at this time, he had already been beaten so badly that he had no ability to fight back.

The way out has been blocked, and the only way out for the remaining water pirates is the land passage behind the water village.

One by one, they ran into the water village desperately.

Some people felt that the speed of the boat was too slow, so they jumped into the water and swam towards the shore.

Chen Hong and the others saw all the chaos in the water village at this time.

Gently waving the command flag in your hand,
"Order, all personnel are ready to attack, let's go ashore and pursue!"

The time for finishing has come, and the time for harvest is coming.

How can everyone be unhappy.

This battle was almost entirely due to the credit of the crew, and the soldiers hardly did anything.

Now it's finally their turn to contribute. If they can't take advantage of this time and make some contributions, I'm afraid they won't even have the chance to drink some soup in the end.

Following Chen Hong's order, the officers and soldiers rushed into the water village unstoppably like a flood that opened the gate, like a beast out of a cage.

Although this time has come, it still cannot be taken lightly.

After all, just one round of impact and one round of shelling killed less than half of the water pirates at most.

Even though the water pirates were panicked at this time and had no thought of resisting, their numbers still far outnumbered the officers and soldiers.

No one can guarantee whether they will resist in the end.

If you are careless at this time and cause the fleet to suffer serious losses, then the loss outweighs the gain.

Chen Hong left two adjutants and a quarter of the officers and men to garrison the ship to guard against the stubborn enemy at any time.

And he himself and Jiang Hao, each leading more than 200 people, went deep into the hinterland of the water village, and went straight to their base camp, which was the so-called Juyi Hall.

Judging from the previous intelligence, most of the wealth that Hun Jianglong and the others have collected over the years is hidden in the treasure house behind the Juyi Hall.

This place is the first to win everything.

However, what is unexpected is that they have just stepped into the gate of the Juyi Hall, and not all of them have come in yet.

The door of the Juyi Hall was suddenly closed.

The heavy iron gate, with a bang, completely blocked the entrance.

Just as Chen Hong and the dozen or so musketeers rushed into the hall, they were a little dazed.

A black shadow, suddenly two black shadows rushed out from the corner.

But what they were holding in their hands made Chen Hong's eyes condense, and he felt a chill rushing from the soles of his feet to Tianling Gai.

"His Royal Highness, he was caught by someone!"

Kakaka.

In just an instant, the dozen or so musketeers behind Chen Hong immediately raised their guns and pointed them at the two people who suddenly appeared.

"Who are you, let them go quickly, otherwise, no one will be able to go out from here today."

"Hehehe, General Chen is really brave. At this time, he is still calm and composed. He is indeed a general who has fought for many years!"

The fact that the visitor was able to say his name in one gulp meant that the other party must be a person who knew himself and others very well.

In other words, there is a great possibility that the other party has already seen through the identities of Zhu Zhanji and Tang Wanqing. Are they planning to threaten the two princes and make them retreat!

Apart from this possibility, Chen Hong couldn't think of any reason for these two mysterious people to catch Zhu Zhanji who was very good at pretending.

On the one hand, a big victory is within reach, and on the other hand, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince whose life is at stake.

Chen Hong chose without any hesitation, temporarily protecting Zhu Zhanji's safety.

After all, victory can still be fought in the future, but once something happens to the crown prince, everything will be over.

At this time, his eyes were rapidly patrolling every corner of this gathering hall, as if he was looking for something anxiously.

"Damn it, where did Mr. Zhuang go? He hasn't appeared at this time. If His Royal Highness is really injured, who can bear the responsibility."

"Hmph, General Chen, you don't need to bother to find a way out. This Juyi Hall has been remodeled by craftsmen, and the walls are very thick. Even if it is bombarded with artillery, it will take a lot of time to break through.

No one is bothering us now, let's have a good chat! "

According to Chen Hong's experience, the guy who can be so calm when facing so many musketeers is definitely not a different person.

And His Royal Highness and Miss Tang's skills are not too bad, but they were still captured alive, which further shows that the opponent's situation is not simple.

At this time, the Juyi Hall became a cage, people outside could not get in, and people inside could not get out, and Mr. Zhuang didn't know if he could come to the rescue in time.

Now, the only thing I can rely on is probably myself.

After analyzing the situation at this time at an extremely fast speed.

Chen Hong calmed down instead.

"Hmph, it looks like you know our situation very well.

Since you plan to talk to General Ben, don't hide your head and show your tail, show your true face! "

The two men in black looked at each other, nodded to each other silently, and then slowly removed the burqas on their heads.

One of them has white hair and a childlike face, he is Ma Dazhong, the great eunuch who covers the sky with his hands in Nanjing city.

And two people, with sharp eyes, faces as cold as knives and axes, tall and tall, just like a general, but they look very unfamiliar.

But this person can be with Ma Dazhong at this time, and cooperate so tacitly, there is almost no need to guess, the identity of this person is ready to be revealed.

He should be the master of this water village, Hun Jianglong, the leader of water bandits that no one dares to provoke when he rampages across the river.

"Hahaha, I can't imagine that Eunuch Ma, the dignified former guard eunuch, would do such a thing like a thief."

While speaking, Chen Hong cast his eyes on Hun Jianglong, who was burly and resolute.

Said very politely,
"If my guess is correct, your Excellency should be the leader of more than a dozen water villages in the river, you should be a dragon in the river!"

The strong man cupped his hands slightly, and said in a forceful and forceful voice,

"That's right, a certain family is Hunjianglong!"

Chen Hong is not a fool either.

The current situation is that although there are a dozen musketeers on our side, plus myself, we can barely fight the two of them, but the opponent has hostages in hand, which is naturally determined. If we really use huge profits to solve this problem The thing is, without a doubt, the stupidest.

That's why he sneered at Ma Dazhong, but he was very polite to Hun Jianglong.

I just wanted to create a sense of splitting the other party first. If Hun Jianglong could be persuaded in the next negotiation, then paying an extra polished commander Ma Dazhong would be easy.
