Han Jin and Shan Shan led the centurion all the way south.
It's only 150 miles from the landing point to several settlements in the south, and it only takes a day's jogging on horseback.
Han Jin and the others were not in a hurry and walked forward while looking at the scenery.
After walking for almost two hours, it was almost dusk.
We originally planned to camp on the spot for the night, but a large group of people chased us behind us.
"It's them, come to me! Leave no one behind!" As soon as those people rushed over, someone shouted to attack.
Han Jin frowned and started to fight when they met? It was so obvious that he wanted to kill them.
This place is already dozens of miles away from the base camp. It is not easy to ask for help. It seems that we can only solve it by ourselves.
"Master Supervisor, there are at least a thousand of them, we have to deal with them carefully!" Ritu frowned on the mountain.
He didn't panic at all. The centurions all carried muskets, and the fifty Jiangzhou navy troops even carried some explosives.
With these things, even if there are many people on the other side, you won't be able to please them.
"Bang bang bang!"
The enemy who rushed up to kill them was immediately frightened by the burst of gunfire.
The person who rushed to the front fell down to over twenty people.
Some of the injured fell to the ground struggling and rolling, wailing in pain.
It directly destroyed the morale of the rest of the people.
"What should I do? They know magic!"
"What a bastard of magic! This is obviously some kind of strange weapon!"
"We don't even have weapons!"
"With bows and arrows! Javelins!"
"Remember it all! We are just grasshoppers tied to a rope now. Don't let anyone think that we are not doing our best! If one of them escapes, our whole family will die!"
The leader is Cai Dawen, the son of Cai family Laodeng, who is determined to become the king of Wanwan.
The leaders of the remaining two families also understood that the situation was critical, and they couldn't help but try their best.
"Bow and arrows! Shoot arrows for me!" Cai Dawen roared.
The people from the three families brought hundreds of bows and arrows, and each of them set up their bows and arrows, and started shooting.
Here Han Jin saw that he had repelled the first wave of attacks, and when he saw the other side coming out with bows and arrows, he knew that things were not easy to handle.
There were only a hundred of them, and they didn't carry much ammunition.
If we fight hard, we might be wiped out here.
Han Jin is not afraid of death, but he doesn't want to die here and no one will know.
"Let's go! Retreat to the woods!" Han Jin shouted, looking at the nearby mountains and forests, and immediately made a decision.
"Sir! How about I lead people to break out of the encirclement!" Ritu on the mountain volunteered.
"No! There are too few of us. If we separate, we might all die!" Han Jin firmly objected.
Apparently there are more than a thousand people here, but who knows if there will be more enemies in the future.
Now they must escape!
As long as we hide in the mountains and fight guerrillas with the enemies for a day or two, the base camp will definitely send people to patrol.
Han Jin explained his thoughts, and Ritu on the mountain also understood his intention.
This method is considered to be the safest and least likely to cause casualties.
"Walk!"
Everyone protected Han Jin and hid in the woods.
Cai Dawen and his gang are also stupid. One thousand, five hundred people capture one hundred people, and they don't even try to surround them. They act recklessly when they confront them.
He was about to run into the woods, but he hesitated for two minutes before being chased.
By the time Cai Dawen and others caught up with Han Jin and others, they were already halfway up the mountain.
"Abandon your horse and go up the mountain!"
Han Jin was very decisive. The mountain road ahead became very steep, and the speed of riding a horse was not as fast as his legs.
"Don't run! You can't escape!"
"Put down your weapons and be captured! I'll give you a way to survive!"
Cai Dawen shouted from behind as if he was mentally retarded.
This is so embarrassing, how can I still survive?
Even if they surrender, these one hundred people must die in order not to reveal the secret.
There is no need for Han Jin to explain this to the Hundreds.
Everyone has a clear mind.
Let’s not talk about the loyal fifty Jiangzhou naval forces.
Even the fifty Tokyo Battalion Japanese soldiers brought by Japan on the mountain understood this truth.
Because they have often done this before, first deceiving people into surrendering, and then killing them with a knife...
"Save your bullets. If they don't charge, we won't shoot. Just let them shout!" Ritu on the mountain whispered to everyone.
In terms of combat, this guy is still very capable.
Using the fewest bullets and delaying the longest time is what we need to do now.
Cai Dawen shouted for a long time, and his throat was almost smoking. Han Jin and the hundred people were still running up inside, showing no intention of surrendering.
"Damn it! Chase me! Shoot the arrows! Keep shooting the arrows!"
Cai Dawen's angry voice changed, and he greeted his younger brothers with bows and arrows.
As a result, I shot an arrow from bottom to top, and it was in the woods again.
Those arrows flew not far before falling to the ground.
Surprisingly, none of the shots hit.
"Idiot! Let's fire arrows when we get close!" Cai Dawen roared angrily.
"Uh! Young Master, weren't you the one who asked me to release the arrow just now?"
"Get out! You idiot! Chase me!"
Cai Dawen is about to be fooled to death by his own people.
He doesn't think he is stupid, he just thinks his subordinates are incompetent.
More than a thousand people listened to the order and gave chase again.
It was getting dark soon, so Cai Dawen gave the order and rushed.
"Bang bang bang!"
Only seventy or eighty steps behind them, without even drawing their bows and arrows, a dozen people were killed by Sun Tu on the mountain with musketry.
The Japanese and Tu on the mountain were also very restrained in fighting, and when the pursuers came in, twenty people were ordered to fire their guns.
Once they were far away, everyone continued walking into the woods.
The team of 100 people was divided into five small groups and took turns shooting from the rear.
I saw that there were only twenty guns, but they were so heavy that 1,500 people did not dare to rush forward.
"Trash! You bunch of trash!"
"Think about your wives, children, and children! As long as one of them is alive, you will kill the whole family!" Cai Dawen could only threaten the wives, children, and children of his younger brothers.
However, this had some effect, and the younger brothers finally dared to catch up with their guns.
He also wounded several people on Han Jin's side with bows and arrows.
"General on the mountain! This won't work! When we run out of energy, it won't be easy to drag on." Han Jin looked at the three wounded soldiers and frowned.
None of the injuries suffered by these three people were critical, just two shoulders and one elbow.
Although it has a slight impact on combat effectiveness, it does not delay escape.
But if this continues, once everyone loses the prize and loses their physical strength, they won’t be able to run.
"Master Han, do you have a way to break this situation? We are not familiar with each other here, so I am completely blind now!"
In the past few years, Shan Ritu has been very good at learning Daqian dialects, and he can easily pick up idioms and sayings.
Han Jin looked around and saw that everything was so dark that he couldn't see clearly what was going on around him.
"Continue walking up the mountain! When you reach the top of the mountain, find a commanding height and defend it!" Han Jin said in a deep voice.
If you just run away like this all night, even if you have bullets, you won't be able to hold it back.
The main reason is that I have no direction and I don't know where the way out is.
Han Jin's plan was to escape to the top of the mountain, find a commanding height, and use muskets and explosives to hold on to the commanding heights.
The pursuers were all strong men, and they probably didn't have the guts to charge the fortress with all their might.
It doesn't take much, just wait for a day or two and Song Yang and the others will come over.
When we came out, everyone brought marching rations, canned food, dry food, beef jerky, and water hoses with them.
It's not a problem to keep these things for two or three days.
After thinking about it for a while, the Japanese people on the mountain also felt that what Han Jin said was a solution.
"Then listen to Supervisor Han! Let's go up the mountain!"
One hundred people took advantage of the darkness to continue climbing to the top of the mountain.
Cai Dawen and others did not dare to relax and could only pursue them desperately.
The two groups chased each other and ran away in a stalemate until midnight.
Han Jin and others also arrived at several steep slopes approaching the top of the mountain.
Further up the mountain are rocky cliffs, and it is impossible to find a foothold in Mahakala.
"Let's stay here! Use explosives to blow up those rocks! A pile of rocks is a Huashan Road! Let's see how they chase after us!"
Ritu on the mountain pointed to the place where they came just now. There were several big rocks hanging above their heads. If the rocks were blown down, at least half of the way up the mountain would be blocked.
The narrower the road, the easier it is to guard.
Han Jin waved his hand and motioned to Ritu on the mountain to handle it by himself. He was wheezing and unable to speak a word.
Although Han Jin has been running around in the past few years as a supervisor, he is in good health.
But it was the first time in my life to climb such a steep and high mountain.
Most of the centurions were also in this state, and they were all huffing and puffing from exhaustion.
Only Ritu and a few people on the mountain who are in excellent physical condition can still bear it now.
Ritu on the mountain comforted everyone to sit down and rest, and he personally led people to load explosives on the big rocks.
Just as he finished his work, the pursuers behind him came again.
Even though they are just strong people, they are all here in Wanwan. Even if they are not as good as the mountain tribes in crossing the mountains, they are still better than the navy like them.
Although Cai Dawen was a little out of breath, he could still bear it.
They are really the beacon of light in the middle of the night with their torches.
Ritu discovered them all the way up the mountain.
"Light the torch and ask them to come here quickly." Sanshan Ritu ordered.
Sure enough, the torch was lit, and Cai Dawen and others immediately chased after them.
By the light of the fire, Cai Dawen could see at a glance that the Centurion was resting on a gentle slope on the cliff.
"Haha! You can't escape! Do you think climbing a mountain is so easy? You fools are exhausted!" Cai Dawen laughed.
Looking at the Hundreds resting there, Cai Dawen thought he had a chance of winning.
"Come on, I'll kill a reward of 100 kilograms of grain!"
"Kill the two leaders and reward me with a big girl!"
Cai Dawen offered generous rewards, and the younger brothers became excited, seeing that the enemy was dying.
The momentum of tailwind, as fierce as a tiger, must be brought out!
The younger brothers swarmed up, fearing that they would fall behind and not be able to pick up the heads.
Cai Dawen pinched his waist, and his proud aunt burst into laughter.
It was as if I could see the day in the future when I would become the Prince of Wanwan and the King of Wanwan.
"Boom~"
"Boom boom boom~"
A series of explosions suddenly appeared, frightening Cai Dawen so much that he fell over.
"Where's the thunder? Where's the thunder!" Cai Dawen sat in a panic and looked around.
The other two people beside him, Su and Wu, were already standing on the spot like clay sculptures.
Following their gazes, Cai Dawen looked toward the mountain.
The mountain road where seven or eight people could pass side by side was blocked by a pile of gravel.
Even if you are rushing up on gravel, it is good if you can pass one person at a time.
Not only that, but several half-buried brothers could also be seen in the rubble.
Needless to say, the "thunder" just now must have been an ambush by those Dagan people.
