On the beach, the district captain was lying on the ground with blood all over his body, his breath weak.
Xiao Chen walked over, slowly squatted down, and gently touched the other person's shoulders with his hands: "Hey, can you still talk?"
The district captain was struck by a large number of arrows through his body. The severe pain and massive blood loss made him about to enter a coma.
Xiao Chen's slap made him wake up a little bit.
His eyelids were raised slightly, and a sentence came out that Xiao Chen couldn't understand at all.
"I ×." Xiao Chen cursed in his heart.
What the hell is this? I can’t understand a word.
When I first captured the Japanese pirate captain, I could still understand his words.
Nowadays, I can't understand these bird songs at all.
Is this really just a natural language barrier?
Xiao Chen shook his head, stood up, and prepared to go back and resume his life.
Just as he was about to turn around, the district captain suddenly stretched out an arm, grabbed Xiao Chen's clothes, and said harsh words: "Brother, help me, help me."
Xiao Chen was startled and asked hurriedly: "What did you say?"
"I said save me." The man squeezed his eyelids several times, but the sounds coming out of his mouth became weaker and weaker.
Xiao Chen felt anxious in his heart, this guy was obviously going to die.
Moreover, those words just now were made with the last breath of energy. After saying so many words, I must have reached the end of my strength.
In addition, this guy has wounds all over his body and he bleeds very quickly. If he doesn't stop the bleeding quickly, he may die.
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen gritted his teeth and squatted down, trying to turn the district captain over.
Xiao Chen turned the pages and asked, "What's your name?"
"You, you, just call me Xiaojiu."
Xiao Jiu? He looks so big and thick, why should he be called Xiao Jiu? He should be called Da or something like that.
However, why does this name sound familiar?
He looked at this person's face carefully, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind: "Your name is Xiaojiu?"
The district captain nodded his head twice in succession: "Yes, yes, I am Xiaojiu, it's me."
I×, why is this name so familiar?
Xiao Chen thought hard, but he couldn't remember where he had heard this name.
Looking at the other person's naked upper body, Xiao Chen smiled coldly in his heart.
You can pretend you're not a Ryukyu soldier without a shirt? Don't even look at it. Your pants are exactly the same as those of the soldiers who died on the beach.
Since you are greedy for life and afraid of death, I just need the information from you.
"How did you get injured? You are not a Ryukyu soldier? Come on, is this the only Ryukyu army on this beach? What is their organization? My medicine is a good healing medicine, and it is very effective in treating external injuries.
.”
Xiao Chen took out Dongchang's healing medicine from his arms and gave the other party hope, but did not treat him at all. He asked like a barrage of questions, "This guy is almost dead, it's time to ask about the situation."
The district captain raised his head with difficulty, looked at the sky, and then lowered his gaze.
Xiao Chen was stunned. Could it be that this guy wanted to speak but couldn't?
In this case, what should we do?
At this time, the district captain suddenly said: "Brother, I am waiting here specifically for the Ming army to take me home."
"What? Are you waiting for the Ming army? Are you going to take you home? Where is your home? Are you not from Ryukyu?"
The doubts in Xiao Chen's heart came one after another.
Is it possible that this person is from the Ming Dynasty and came to the Ryukyu Kingdom by some strange combination of circumstances?
"I, I." The district captain's voice became smaller and smaller.
Xiao Chen was anxious and hurriedly leaned down and put his ear to his mouth.
"Sir, be careful." Pioneer Qianhu, who had been watching the situation beside him, shouted and was about to pounce on him.
At the same time, from the corner of Xiao Chen's eyes, he could clearly see that the district captain quickly pulled out a five or six-inch long dagger from his calf with his right hand, and was about to stab his body.
Although the dagger was short, the green light on it was obviously a vicious weapon smeared with poison.
At this moment, Xiao Chen suddenly remembered that he had just entered the Dongchang, and in the name of Duan Tianming, the commander of the Thirteenth Army at the time, on the evening of the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month last year, in a house on the outskirts of Beijing, he took the house that had been given to the enemy.
When the army was transporting grain and grass to kill Liu Zhixian, who was the county magistrate in the suburbs of Beijing at that time, his servants used poison-tempered daggers against him.
At that time, he cut off the other person's legs with a knife under the table and took his life.
Now, what I need is not the other person's life, but the information from him.
He raised his left hand slightly and caught the opponent's wrist.
The poison-quenching dagger was less than half an inch away from his thigh, but he failed in the end.
At this moment, Xiao Chen also instantly understood that the other party was trying so hard to communicate with him just to make him relax his vigilance and give him a backstop before he died.
These Ryukyu people are not only vicious, but also extremely insidious.
This is Xiao Chen's first impression of Ryukyu.
However, Xiao Chen did not follow the other party's ideas and became furious when he discovered the conspiracy.
Instead, he used his other hand to take away the dagger with the opponent's stunned expression.
"How long have you been playing these vicious things? If you hurt yourself, my healing medicine will not detoxify you." Xiao Chen said with a smile as if nothing had happened.
The district captain was also shocked.
He was preparing to assassinate the opponent, but he actually thought he was playing with a dagger?
Is this arrogance? Or stupidity?
However, since he didn't see through his mind, there was still a chance.
With so many troops coming to Ryukyu, they must want to invade Ryukyu.
As a national soldier, if you kill one, you will count as one.
After making up his mind, the district captain also calmed down, as if nothing had happened.
Holding the poison-quenching dagger in his left hand and Dongchang's healing medicine in his right hand, Xiao Chen slowly poured the medicine powder onto the opponent's wound.
As if unintentionally, as the body swayed, the poison-quenching dagger moved back and forth half a minute away from the opponent's skin.
The district captain's heart was already in his throat.
Although he knew that he was seriously injured and had little hope of survival, who was willing to give up if there was a glimmer of hope?
It is almost impossible for two armies to face each other and heal the wounds of prisoners of the other side.
When the other party did this, it was obvious that he thought that he was just a citizen of Ryukyu who had been accidentally injured.
Although he has always despised the Ming Dynasty's motherly sentiments, at this moment, he hoped that this "idiot" who was healing him would be more like a holy mother.
The district captain had as many as a dozen arrow wounds. The healing medicine in Xiao Chen's hand was used up after treating five or six wounds.
"This kind of healing medicine has obvious effects, but it is also extremely precious. I will discuss it with the coach later to see if I can get another bottle. However, if the coach knows about such a precious healing medicine, treating a person will not be helpful in the battle.
I'm afraid he won't give it to me either."
Xiao Chen shook his head and slowly stood up.
The expression on his face was a bit lonely, as if he was really powerless.
"Brother, although I am a commoner nearby, I still know the garrison structure of this beach. Moreover, I know how many troops this Shannan King has in total and where he usually lives."
Feeling the pain and relief coming from the wounds where the healing medicine was poured, the district captain ignited a great desire for survival in his heart.
"You know so much? You lied to me and said you are a commoner, but in fact you are the Ryukyu defender?"
Xiao Chen asked pretending to be surprised.
"No, no, I'm really not a defender, I'm just a common person." The district captain hurriedly defended, "Ryukyu Island was not big to begin with, and now it is divided into three. And our Shannan King here occupies the smallest area.
, the entire army only has 50,000 people, and the people in the Shannan area all know these things."
"Oh, I see, there are only 50,000 people." Xiao Chen laughed, "I originally thought that the army would need to fight ten to defeat Shannan first. But now it seems that with the two armies facing each other, the Ming army can only
It takes one against two.”
"King Shannan's army also has bows and arrows, but there are very few gunpowder arrows, almost none." As if he was afraid that his information would not be able to exchange for healing medicine, the district captain said hurriedly.
"As long as we have the numbers, as for the equipment, I, the Ming Army, don't care about it."
Xiao Chen squatted down, and the poison-quenching dagger in his hand "inadvertently" cut open the skin on the arm of the district captain.
"Be careful, that dagger is very poisonous." The district captain's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly reminded the other party.
At the same time, he twisted his body to avoid the dagger.
"I know, I just want to see how powerful the poison on this dagger is." As he spoke, Xiao Chen smiled and cut open another area of skin.
"You, you are so vicious? Are you torturing me?" the district captain roared loudly.
"I just want to know the number of Shannan King's troops. Now, I know."
As he spoke, the dagger in Xiao Chen's hand swung towards the opponent again.
