Chapter nine hundred and sixty-ninth the battle of the spear and the shield
The Ming army was still very fast in advance, and in a blink of an eye it had arrived at the fjord.
But one of the oncoming problems is that the fjord is a little small, and the Ming army's navy is composed of hundreds of lucky ships.
This is a bit too large.
What's more, more than twenty Japanese pirate ships have been parked in the port. Simply put, there is not enough space in the port for the Ming army to dock ships led by Zheng Chenggong.
This is indeed a very difficult problem.
Zheng Jing had to choose to face it.
After some contemplation, Zheng Jing ordered the bombardment of Japanese ships in the port.
Originally, he thought that he could seize these Japanese ships after winning the battle, which could be considered a spoil.
But now it seems that this issue should not be given priority, but should consider taking down Xiaolangyu for a limited time.
Only by taking down Xiaolangyu Zheng Chenggong can this opening battle start.
Then the flag began to float on the flagship.
This means that each Ming army warship will then start to move its positions and aim the muzzle at the dock.
With the command of the flagship, artillery roared for a moment.
Countless shells were smashing straight towards the dock.
Did Tiezhu and Erniu have ever seen such a scene? They were so scared that they covered their ears and squatted on the deck, not even daring to show off their breath.
The Ming army's offensive was very fierce, and the dock was smashed into pieces with one round of cannon.
As for the Japanese ships docked on the dock, they were even seriously damaged and burned. Some were even sunk directly, emitting a burnt smell.
Tiezhu and Erniu gradually adapted to this environment and dared to stand up and watch.
Seeing that the Japanese ships were all hit and burned, they were so happy.
"The prince is heroic and handsome, and the prince is very good."
Zheng Jing was very proud of his feelings of being flattered, but it was from ordinary people.
Ordinary people will not lie, they sincerely thank him.
It was just a little strange. The Ming army had been shooting for so long, and it seemed that the Japanese pirates on the island had no intention of fighting back.
Although the iron cannons of the Japanese pirates are not sharper than the standard firearms of the Ming army, they should not be as timid as this, right?
The promised Japanese pirates are extremely cruel and bloodthirsty?
Why did they become docile little lambs when they arrived at Zheng Jing?
Zheng Jing felt puzzled for a moment.
Regardless of this, it would be a good thing for the Ming army to not fight back.
Could it be that Zheng Jing went to rush his son to beg the Japanese pirates to fight back?
Zheng Jing narrowed his eyes slightly and admired the fierce attack of the Ming army.
It is estimated that it will be almost done after a few more rounds. The Ming army will be able to land on the dock.
The Japanese pirates were delayed and probably hid.
Zheng Jing carefully observed the terrain of this small Langyu and found that the middle part was full of towering mountainous areas.
Most of the Japanese pirates hide in the mountains and want to rely on the advantage of the terrain to resist stubbornly.
Joke! Do they think it's safe to hide?
Zheng Jing came here with only one purpose, that is, to kill all the Japanese pirates on Xiaolangyu, without leaving any one!
Even if these Japanese pirates knelt in front of him and begged for surrender, Zheng Jing would not accept it.
How did these extremely vicious evil ghosts kill the people of the Ming Dynasty?
They are not worthy of forgiveness at all.
...
...
Ichiro Inoue and Takashi Oda could clearly hear the roar of cannons even when they hid on the mountain.
The sound was deafening and could tear the eardrums.
At this moment, the two were extremely glad that they did not stay at the dock to guard the pier.
That's a decision that only idiots would make.
Now Ichiro Inoue knows very well that the Ming army is about to land.
The Ming army will definitely search everywhere shortly after logging in.
The Japanese pirates guarded several important paths to climb the mountain.
If the Ming army wants to go up the mountain, they can only walk from these few places.
They have a lot of guns and cannons in their hands, and they can play a role at this time.
Be patient, you must be patient at this moment.
Ichiro Inoue once again and again, he warned himself not to be impulsive.
"Boss, how do you deal with the arrested people?"
"Just tied up like this. They may be able to save our lives at critical moments."
Oda Geng understood it when he heard this. The boss meant to let these people be human talismans.
Don’t the official army claim to love the people as much as their children? Then how can they have the nerve to hurt their people?
As long as the Japanese pirates pushed these people out at a critical moment, the Ming army would not dare to attack again.
Of course, this is a last resort.
Ichiro Inoue still hopes that the Japanese pirates can rely on the advantage of geographical advantages to block the Ming army.
Huh, I really didn't expect so many things to happen overnight.
But this also fully inspired the wild beast in Ichiro Inoue's heart.
He likes to seek excitement, and it is a great opportunity to show his strength.
If he can defeat the powerful official army with more and fight less, his position in the Japanese pirate circle will rise sharply.
People pursue a sense of identity, and the same applies to Japanese pirates.
Ichiro Inoue is looking forward to this battle very much, and he hopes to fight happily.
I hope Mingjun will not let him down.
...
...
After confirming that there was no danger, the Ming army had already started to log in.
The strength of the Ming army is that they can make appropriate changes to completely unfamiliar environments at the first time.
This Ming army was a navy, but because there were mountains on the island, they also changed their clothes in time to adapt to the environment.
Zheng Jing also came to the island. His safety was not a problem surrounded by a group of personal guards.
For some reason, Zheng Jing felt very excited after coming to the island. Perhaps it was the kind of yearning in the bones of the Zheng family.
"I ordered the search of mountains and search inch of land, and no Japanese pirates are allowed to be let go."
The Ming army had enough soldiers, so many that they seemed a little crowded when crowded on a small island.
After going up the mountain, this situation was greatly alleviated.
At least so far, there have been no problems that the Ming army cannot handle.
Zheng Jing was also very at ease.
In his opinion, this will be a full-scale crushing battle.
But the situation did not seem to develop exactly as he imagined.
After the Ming army began to climb up the mountain, it was discovered that the Japanese pirates were really hiding in the mountains, and the Japanese pirates' location was very tricky, which was exactly the only way for the Ming army.
Japanese pirates can defeat the Ming army, but the Ming army cannot defeat the Japanese pirates.
Not to mention how popular this is.
Zheng Jing was very angry. It felt uncomfortable to be shot coldly, especially the Japanese pirates.
It’s obvious that the other party is not as strong as you, but they just don’t give you a head shot.
Moreover, the Ming army is facing a problem now and they cannot determine the specific location of the Japanese pirates.
The problems facing the Ming army are very difficult.
The best choice is to burn the mountains directly and force the Japanese pirates out.
But Zheng Jing would not do this unless he was absolutely sure. Because in this way, the people who were abducted by the Japanese pirates would definitely be burned to death, and it is not worth sacrificing these people to kill them in order to kill the Japanese pirates.
