When the Shenji soldiers and the rebel gunmen began to exchange fire, the soldiers of the Songmen Guards also rushed forward.
A combined attack of firecrackers, gunpowder arrows, and most of the rebels fell.
On the top of the mountain, the Japanese pirates next to the broom head were also attacked, killing more than 200 people.
One by one, they were holding Japanese swords and crowded together back to back. Their eyes were full of fear as they looked at the Ming army rushing up around them.
The broom head was surrounded in the middle, holding a chicken leg in his hand, looking at everyone eagerly.
Xiao Chen walked out of the team of Shenji soldiers with a livid face.
His right hand was pressed on the handle of the knife that was separated from the blade at his waist.
"Who gave the order just now?" Xiao Chen's voice was extremely low as he looked at the broom head.
"it's me."
The broom head threw the chicken drumstick in his hand to the ground and stretched out his big belly.
"Okay." Xiao Chen shouted, and the Liblade at his waist was already unsheathed.
The sky suddenly darkened, as if it had been completely enveloped by the blue light emitted from Li Ren's blade as thin as a cicada's wing. Everyone on the top of the mountain was shrouded in this light.
More than two hundred Japanese pirates armed with Japanese swords had hair-like blood streaks appearing on their foreheads, extending downward.
Neck, chest, abdomen.
There was a "pop" sound.
A Japanese pirate's body was split in two from the center and fell to the ground.
"Plop, plop."
More than two hundred people were all split into two in an instant and fell to the ground.
The broom head half-opened his mouth, touched the right hand holding the knife at his waist, and slowly retracted it.
Facing Xiao Chen, he didn't even have the courage to draw his sword.
The Songmen Guard soldiers on the side, including the Songmen Guard commander Tang Xing, all stared, as if they couldn't believe what they were seeing.
More than 200 people were killed with one sword, and I didn't even see how the other party acted.
Is this still a human being? Is this still something that humans can do?
The captains of the Shenji Corps all stared with their eyes wide open.
Unlike the soldiers of the Songmen Guard, the anger in their eyes was that they wanted to kill the broomstick with their own hands.
When did you ever suffer a loss when you went out to Dongchang?
Today, in the battle with the Japanese pirates, not only did we lose more than fifty good brothers of Shenji Commander, but Commander Duan was also left here.
Xiao Chen turned around and looked at the Divine Machine Soldier in front of him: "How many people did the Divine Machine Soldier lose?"
"Fifty-seven people." The captain who was treating Duan Tianming's injuries lowered his head.
"Cut off the hamstrings and tendons of the broom head and tie them up." Xiao Chen shouted.
"No, don't. Don't you ask who I am? I am the captain of the 7th Brigade of the Ryukyu Kingdom stationed on this island. If you dare to invade my Ryukyu Island, you are an enemy of my Ryukyu Kingdom. If you catch me
, the end that awaits you is that the Ryukyu Kingdom launches an all-out war against the Ming Dynasty."
When he heard that he was going to break his hamstrings, the broom head took two steps back and shouted loudly.
"A full-scale war? Is the Ming Dynasty afraid of your small island country?" Xiao Chen turned around, his face was calm, but his words were so deep that it made people's hearts tremble.
"I have done so many evil things along the coast of Ming Dynasty and killed my best brother. The reason why I left you like this is because I am a member of the imperial court and I want to give an explanation to the imperial court. After this incident, Ryukyu
If you want to be the Prime Minister of the country, restrain your troops from harassing our Ming Dynasty along the coast again, and send envoys to bow down to our Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, don’t talk about you pig head, I will lead the Ming Dynasty army to flatten the Ryukyu Kingdom and let the entire
Not a blade of grass grows in the Ryukyu Kingdom.”
Staring at the broom head, Xiao Chen spoke slowly, word by word.
At this moment, no one doubted that Xiao Chen did not dare to do this.
No one doubted that he was incapable of doing so.
"Yes, yes! Sir, that's what you said." When the broom head heard Xiao Chen's words, he was so frightened that his whole body shivered, and he quickly nodded his head and replied.
He knew that the man in front of him was not joking, but really had the ability and courage to fulfill his promise.
Although he was a little dissatisfied, he was unwilling to anger this terrible person in front of him. After all, his life was still in his hands.
What I said before was just to use the name of Ryukyu Kingdom to put a little pressure on the other party and save my own life.
As long as he is willing to send himself to the Ming court, his head can be regarded as saved.
Ryukyu is a country after all.
It is very possible to exchange a country's face for one's own life.
And at this moment, what if I follow his words and endure the temporary humiliation?
However, once the hamstrings and hand tendons are severed, he will be no different from trash.
He lowered his head and asked tentatively with his broomstick: "Sir, I am fat and not very agile. Just tie me up. I don't need to pick my hamstrings and hand tendons, right?"
"I'm leaving you to die. As a court official, I have to deliver errands to the court. But underneath, lie the bodies of more than fifty of my Dongchang Shenji soldiers. Do you still want to keep your hamstrings and hand tendons intact?"
"Xiao Chen raised his right hand and pointed at the hillside where everyone was charging up.
As soon as he finished speaking, before the broom head could tell the difference again, two captains from the Shenji Corps walked over, flashing the swords in their hands several times quickly.
"Ah...ah..." The broom head's howl like a killing pig sounded from the top of the mountain.
Regardless of the other party's screams, the two captains quickly tied up the broom head.
Xiao Chen let out a long sigh and looked at Songmen Guard Commander Tang Xing: "Commander, how many people did Songmen Guards lose?"
"I just did an inventory. Together with the corpses on the beach below, the loss of Songmen Guards is also around 500. The specific number has not been calculated yet." Tang Xing said softly.
Although this battle was a complete victory, his losses were not small.
"More than five hundred people, plus the loss of Dongchang, that's more than six hundred. Although the losses are heavy, we can uproot the Japanese pirates entrenched on the coast of the Ming Dynasty, which is worthy of those brothers who died." Xiao Chen nodded.
Head, the voice is very deep.
"Sir, is Commander Duan of Dongchang also...?" Tang Xing did not dare to ask the following words.
The person who can be taken by the captain in purple must be his most capable subordinate.
If Captain Duan had stayed here, then the Japanese pirate broom captain would have had to burn a few incense sticks to the sky if he was lucky enough to save his life.
"Yes, Commander Duan stayed here." Xiao Chen said slowly.
Tang Xing was stunned. The rope was indeed broken at a small point.
But for a moment I didn’t know how to answer the question, so I could only whisper: “My condolences, sir.”
Xiao Chen nodded: "Commander Duan sacrificed his life for the country. Even if he dies, he will be honored."
In my heart, I felt extremely uncomfortable.
If it weren't for saving himself, Duan Tianming would not have died.
I owe him a life.
But at this time, there were corpses all over the mountains and plains. Some were from the imperial army and some from Japanese pirates.
These soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country should be buried with dignity.
And these things all need to be presided over by oneself. I cannot blindly sink into the grief of Duan Tianming's death and ignore the other brothers who died in the battle.
Raising his head, winking, Xiao Chen said slowly: "Clean the battlefield, move all the corpses of Songmen Guards soldiers to the boat, and transport them back."
"Where are those from Dongchang? Let's move to the boat together?" Tang Xing asked.
Xiao Chen shook his head: "No. Commander Duan chose to guard this island, so let the brothers from Dongchang who died in battle guard here with him."
Returning to Duan Tianming's body, Xiao Chen knelt down, took Duan Tianming's arm and carried it on his back.
As he climbed to the top of the mountain step by step, all the other captains who died in the battle were also sent to the top of the mountain.
Taking off Duan Tianming's knife, Xiao Chen began to dig a hole in the ground.
The other captains also silently pulled out their swords and dug beside Xiao Chen.
I don't know how long it took, until the sky gradually darkened, and a large pit two feet long and one foot wide was finally dug.
Picking up Duan Tianming's body, Xiao Chen placed him at the front.
The corpses of other Shenji captains were placed next to them one after another.
After wiping the sand and dirt off Duan Tianming's knife on his clothes and putting it into the scabbard, Xiao Chen bent over and placed the knife in Duan Tianming's hand.
The other people's swords and guns were also placed beside them.
Staring at Duan Tianming's already slightly blue face, Xiao Chen picked up a handful of sand with both hands and slowly scattered it on Duan Tianming's chest.
The sun set from the horizon, and the moon slowly rose with a hint of coldness.
On the flat ground on the top of the mountain, a huge earth bag has formed.
In front of the earth bag, Xiao Chen stood quietly.
The more than two hundred Dongchang Shenji military commanders behind him also had heavy faces.
