Chapter 1,447 The Japanese pirates crossing the river and the censor returning home

The battle to suppress the Japanese in Funing Town became a joke. Liu Magistrate Liu and Xu Qianhu gathered more than 2,000 troops, plus the later 800 reinforcements, and the cumulative number of troops reached as many as 3,000. The Japanese pirates had only 150. Typically, they had more than 10 attacks, but the result was shocking: one Japanese pirate was not damaged, and only more than ten were slightly injured, while the Ming army suffered 644 casualties, and the minor injuries were countless! Liu Magistrate Liu, the chief commander of the Ming army, vomited blood and fainted, and the second commander Xu Qianhu was still in shock, as if he was mourning and was criticized...

Naoko Kaorama and Mifanro Matsuura led the Japanese pirates to easily crush the Ming army outside the east wall, killed the Ming army with blood, cried and called her mother, and then laughed arrogantly and crossed the Qishui River on a raft.

Watching the Japanese pirates crossing the river eastward, more than a thousand Ming troops survived, especially the Ming army that had faced the Japanese pirates, were like the Ming army surviving outside the east wall, hoping to beat drums and drums to send off the Japanese pirates. Seeing the Japanese pirates disappear on the other side, the Ming army seemed to have sent away the plague god, and suddenly felt like they had a disaster in their hearts, escaped from heaven and saved their lives.

Thank God, these Japanese pirates who killed people without blinking and chopped people like chickens finally left!

We are saved!

Ming Jun cried...

It was dark and I couldn't see my fingers. The straight man from Guodao, Matsuura Mifanro, and disappeared from the Ming army's sight after crossing the Qishui River with the Japanese pirates.

The prefect Liu vomited blood and fainted, and the command of the Ming army fell into Xu Qianhu. Xu Qianhu was still in shock and was deeply afraid of the lethality of the Japanese pirates. He did not dare to order the Ming army to cross the river to chase the Japanese pirates.

"On the other side of Qishui River, there are both official roads, rural roads, woods, low mountains and hills, and the terrain is extremely complex. It is late at night, so it is difficult to detect traces and it is difficult to trace the whereabouts of the Japanese pirates. If you are unprepared, it is easy to take advantage of the Japanese pirates. It is better to send heavy troops to pursue the Japanese pirates after dawn tomorrow."

Xu Qianhu found a high-sounding reason and ordered the Ming army to rest on the spot and cross the river again tomorrow morning to hunt down the Japanese pirates.

"Sir, wise!"

When the generals heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief and praised Xu Qianhu's wiseness. They were also scared by the Japanese pirates. The Japanese pirates were so cruel. In today's battle, one hundred households died, three general flags died, and eight small flags died! They were all afraid that the next one would be their turn. When they heard Xu Qianhu's order to stop the troops and pursue the Japanese pirates tomorrow, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

The Japanese pirates came from afar, all for plundering wealth. Funing was robbed and had no property. The Japanese pirates would definitely not come back after crossing the river. They would definitely be safe this night, and the Japanese pirates had already gone far away in one night and would definitely not be able to catch up. Of course, even if they could catch up with the Japanese pirates, they would not be able to catch up.

Therefore, the generals wished to raise ten thousand hands and enthusiastically support Xu Qianhu's wise decision-making.

The Ming army received the order from the higher authorities to rest tonight and to chase the Japanese pirates tomorrow morning, and they all raised ten thousand hands to agree.

To the east of Qishui River is a wilderness. A half mile away is an official road. The official road leads directly to Hangzhou Prefecture to the north. It is connected to the official road and has several rural roads leading to nearby villages and towns. Not far away is a dense forest, and there is a low mountain and low hill. Countless villages are scattered on the edges of dense forests and low hills.

Whether it is dense forests or low mountains and hills, they are suitable for hiding. Once you enter it, it is difficult to find traces and whereabouts.

If Japanese pirates enter dense forests or hide in low mountains and low hills, they are really like fish entering the sea and are hard to find.

However, the Japanese pirates did not choose to enter the dense forest or hide in the low hills, but walked onto the official road in a swagger.

"Are you sure this official road leads directly to Hangzhou Prefecture?" Matsuura Mifanro confirmed to the Japanese pirates who followed Xu Hai.

"Yes. When I followed Xu Hai to land in Shangyu and plunder the Ming Dynasty, Xu Hai pointed to this official road and said, "The Japanese pirates confirmed.

"Yaxi!" Matsuura Mifanro nodded with satisfaction, turned around and suggested to Naoko Kaorama, "Straight General, how about we rush to the Hangzhou Prefecture and find a secluded village to rest?!"

"Like the view of Sanfanlang! I can't wait to see the prosperous Suhu area of ​​the Ming Dynasty!"

The straight man from Guodao licked the contaminated Ming Jun blood on his face, and nodded with a chuckle.

Suddenly, a group of Japanese pirates walked north along the official road with a swagger, aiming directly at Hangzhou Prefecture.

At this moment, about ten miles north of the official road, there were also a huge group of people holding torches to the road.

This is Qian Jing, a retired censor who returned to his hometown and returned to his hometown with great honor.

Qian Jing retired as the position of censor, a seventh-rank official, and an old colleague of Hu Zongxian.

Qian Jing's hometown is from Qiaotoubao Town, Shaoxing Prefecture. It is located close to Shangyu County, just five miles north of Shangyu. The old censor Qian is 60 years old this year and is a late-stage representative. He passed the imperial examination at 49, and was only admitted to the Jinshi at 53, and was awarded the position of a local magistrate. Like Hu Zongxian, he took the route of the imperial examination in the lineage of the imperial examination. However, Qian Jing was old and had not waited to be promoted from the imperial examination to retire. His career was frozen in the position of the seventh-rank supervisor.

Of course, he was lucky. Although the Censor of the Supervisor was only a seventh-rank official, he had a high position and was a powerful existence in the officialdom. Therefore, during his tenure as the Supervisor of the Supervisor, he was also a glorious event and did not disappoint his hard study for decades. When he left home, he was alone, and when he returned home, he had five wives, concubines, children, three children, children, children, children, children, children, children, children, children, children, children, a gardener, a servant, a chef, and a family servant, with a total of sixty or seventy people.

Of course, his vocation was not only his wives, concubines, children, servants, and others, but also fifty soldiers sent by the resignation of local officials and more than eighty soldiers sent by officials along the way. When he heard about it, his colleague Hu Zongxian not only warmly welcomed the old Censor Qian, but also in view of the frequent attacks of Japanese pirates in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, for the sake of the safety of the old Censor Qian, regardless of the refusal of the old Censor Qian, he insisted on sending a hundred soldiers to escort the old Censor Qian. When he left, he also reminded the old Censor Qian to rush on the road during the day and not to rush to the night at night.
