Chapter 184: Eternal Vladivostok
The landing war in Sado Island ended very quickly. Thousands of miners did not play any role at all. They were damaged by naval guns and muskets. The remaining Japanese hid in the seemingly solid brick and stone yard to resist stubbornly.
Chen Wei just sent a small team of postmen and ignored it. His goal was to try to capture the Japanese alive. After all, someone would always need to mine such a large gold mine.
The number of miners directly determines the production of gold, and he doesn't want to dig gold by himself.
"Captain! There are many Japanese people in the yard. Should we rush in?" said an inn excitedly.
He Daning said angrily: "You're so fucking! You know, you've forgotten what you said to Master? If you can solve it with a firearm, don't fight with me. Our postmen are not short of money!
In the yard as big as a palm, tie the grenades together and throw them in it will be over!"
Chen Qiu's eyes were so bright that he slapped his thighs excitedly and hurriedly called his companions to prepare the grenade.
...
Yuichi Nakamura stood on the ladder with a careful look, poked his head out quickly, and squatted down again. He turned his head to the more than thirty Japanese people behind him and said, "Everything is ready! The pirates are about to attack!"
Upon hearing this, the Japanese people's expressions changed, and several people unconsciously retreated.
Nakamura's face became distorted and she shouted in a ferocious manner: "Let the pirates come in, we will all die. If you want to live, you have to work hard. You all understand..."
Before he could finish his words, a bundle of bamboo tubes was thrown in from outside the wall. The moment he saw the bamboo tube, Nakamura's face changed drastically.
"Boom!" The Japanese in the courtyard did not react at all. A bundle of five grenades exploded at the same time. The hot air waves swept over everyone in the courtyard, and even the solid brick and stone houses were blown down in a corner.
After the smoke of gunpowder, Nakamura slowly got up from the ground and felt cold when he saw the messy yard. He knew that Sado Island was over, and there was such a powerful firearm, that the Japanese on the island could not stop the invaders at all.
"Bang!" The gate of the courtyard was kicked open, and several fully armed soldiers rushed in.
“Onboard!”
Yuichi Nakamura didn't know where he got the strength, so he stood up with the Japanese knife in his hand and rushed towards the postman shakingly.
He Daning and others quickly raised the musket. Before they could fire, a thin figure in the smoke knocked Nakamura down from the side.
The man rode on Nakamura, and the short pickaxe in his hand hit Nakamura's head. After just a few strokes, Nakamura disappeared.
He Daning and others looked at each other in a daze, and all they saw in the eyes of each other was doubt. But the few people still did not relax their vigilance and pointed their guns at the Japanese holding a short pickaxe.
The thin Japanese saw the black muzzle and trembled, threw away the short pickaxe in his hand, climbed down and kowtowed, "Dear Masters of Ming Dynasty! The villain's name is Takeda Shun, who is a foot-smacking general on Sado Island, named Yuichi Nakamura.
Without him, no one on the island would resist the Ming Dynasty's heavenly soldiers, and everything on the island belongs to the Lord of Ming Dynasty!"
Although Takeda Shun's Chinese words are not standard, they can make people understand them. After hearing this, He Daning did not relax his vigilance and stepped forward and asked, "Why did you kill this person?"
"My Lord Ming Kingdom! A villain wants to survive!" Takeda Toshi's simple answer made He Daning believe it.
He walked up and stabbed the body with a bayonet before saying, "It's right to want to survive, but without you, he will definitely die!"
Takeda Shun was not as panic as He Daning imagined. Instead, he looked up and looked at He Daning and said, "Mr. Ming Dynasty! Takeda Shun is the legitimate son of the Takeda family, and the head of this generation. Although Takeda family was destroyed by the Oda family, there are still many loyal and righteous retainers on Honshu Island.
As long as the adults give the Takeda family a chance, the Takeda family is willing to be the adults and the masters forever and die for the masters!”
He Daning was confused when he heard this. When he was in Gifu Castle, he knew that Japan was in chaos. There were countless families of big and small, but he didn't expect that he would meet one today. However, the so-called Takeda head was a little miserable and became a miner.
When he hesitated, Takeda Toshi was a little anxious. He pointed to the collapsed corner of the house behind him and said, "Sir! Where is the place where gold is melted, there are hundreds of taels of gold that have not been melted yet."
He heard that there was gold in the house that was blown up, and shouted: "Why are you doing so much if you have gold? Why don't you get the gold out quickly!"
With Yuichi Nakamura's death, there were no Japanese people who fought stubbornly on Sado Island. What made Chen Wei a little depressed was that less than a thousand Japanese miners on the island could still work after the massacre of the port.
He only had two squadrons of postmen and could not participate in the mining work. How to maintain the original output became his most troublesome problem.
...
Vladivostok was the name given to him by the fighting nation, but in Li Fan's mind, it is always called Vladivostok.
Vladivostok is guarded by the peninsula and is a natural deep-water port. After Li Fan unified Nuer Gandusi, the first person to occupy it was here.
Although Vladivostok has a four-month freezing period every year, it is not denied that this is the only way for Nuergandosi to obtain large-scale supplies.
The sea python fleet drove directly into Vladivostok and was anchored in the built temporary port. Dozens of sea ships almost covered the temporary port, and the Japanese on the ship were driven off the ship and loaded with specialties such as fur.
Sitting in the shaking carriage, Shirou grabbed his mother's sleeve tightly, for fear of being separated again. When he got off the boat, he was forcibly taken away from his mother, thinking that he would never see his mother.
Unexpectedly, he was just arranged to take a shower, changed into new clean clothes, and was taken to his mother. He felt the softness of the cotton clothes on his body, and he felt an unreal feeling.
Did those people say it is true? They were really taken to a place like heaven?
"It's here! Get out of the car!" A rough voice sounded, and more than a dozen women and children in the carriage walked down. In front of them were rows of wooden houses made of logs. Although they were not as exquisite as Japanese houses, they could give people a sense of security.
Soon they were taken to a spacious yard, and dozens of men pointed at them, and they were watched like goods.
Jiro was a little scared and hid behind his mother, revealing half of his head to look at the group of men. Jiro saw Zhang's smile in the crowd, which made his heart relax for no reason.
The man walked towards them, pulled them up and walked out of the crowd, causing laughter from the men around him.
The man was a little embarrassed and his feet were a little fast, which almost made Yu Shilang unable to keep up. Yu Shilang seemed to have heard the name "Ergou!" clearly. Are the names of Mingren so strange?
That night, he had the most delicious dinner in his life. He had enough white rice, delicious fish soup, and a large piece of fat meat. He ate it so much that he was full of oil. The only thing that made him happiest was that he actually had his own room.
