Chapter 1,776 Then, there is no more
The wind rises, the snow falls, and the Japanese arrive.
The vanguard sent by the Japanese pirates was less than 300 meters away from Fengqiao Camp. Although it was dark, the faces of the Japanese pirates could be seen from the torches they were fighting against. They were ferocious and crazy, arrogant and bloodthirsty.
Zhu Ping'an held up the saber and stared at the Japanese pirate striker in front of him without blinking, feeling a little regretful.
This group of Japanese pirates had combat experience and were quite cautious in marching. They did not rush over. The Japanese pirate army stopped about a mile in front of Fengqiao Camp and sent about six or seven hundred vanguards to the camp to test the reality of our army.
It would be great if the Japanese pirate army rushed over in a swarm. After resisting the Japanese pirates' offensive, they could ignite the lead and detonate the wine jar of gunpowder buried 100 meters ahead. It would definitely be enough for the Japanese pirates to drink a pot of it.
Unfortunately, the Japanese pirates were cautious and only sent six or seven hundred forwards. This amount of Japanese pirates was not worthy of detonating the gunpowder in the wine jar.
Gunpowder wine jars are a one-time deal. After being detonated once, the Japanese pirates will inevitably be more careful and will not fall twice in a ditch.
However, it doesn't matter. If you eat the Japanese pirates' forward, the Japanese pirates will be angry and will inevitably send more troops.
While Zhu Ping'an was staring at the Japanese pirates' vanguard, Xu Hai and other Japanese chiefs also observed the Fengqiao camp among the Japanese pirate army.
"A new low wall with a man high is added to Fengqiao, and there is a low wall with a man high is also a low wall with a man high is on the river bank. There is a three-story whistle fortress on the east slope of Fengqiao. In front of it, there is a low wall connecting Fengqiao, the whistle fortress and Fengqiao camp. Haha, the fortifications of the Zhejiang Army are really a thing for children in the lake. The low wall with a man high is also wanted to stop us, so I don't even need a ladder, and I can pass it over. Except for the difficulty of the three-story whistle fortress, I think our 700 forwards can take down the others."
Chen Dong walked to the army to observe and saw the Zhejiang Army's low wall defense from afar. He couldn't help but sneer and shook his head.
"Brother Chen, the Zhejiang Army is not that simple, you can't underestimate the enemy. Look, our vanguard has already rushed to 200 meters, and the Zhejiang Army still doesn't move. This is to put our vanguard closer and then fight to improve lethality. Without enough courage and discipline, you can't do this. This Zhejiang Army is not simple."
Xu Hai shook his head slightly, pointed to Fengqiao Camp, and said slowly, reminding Chen Dong and others not to underestimate the enemy.
"Haha, Brother Xu, Zhejiang Army doesn't move. Is it possible that they were scared by us?"
Ma Ye said with a smile.
"Ha ha ha ha......"
After Ma Ye finished speaking, a burst of laughter suddenly rang out.
"Ma Yejun, are the Zhejiang Army scared? You will know immediately. Our forward has already rushed to a distance of 150 meters."
At some point, Hojo Daosan took out a fan from his arms and opened it. The sun, moon and the Big Dipper were painted on it, and pointed to the forward who had already rushed 150 meters in front of the Zhejiang Army formation and said.
"This distance has entered the range of the Zhejiang Army's crossbow, why hasn't the Zhejiang Army made any noise yet?! You won't be really scared by Brother Ma Ye Yan Chong, the Zhejiang Army was silly by us, right?! Otherwise, why wouldn't you shoot an arrow?!"
Chen Dong watched the forward rushing to the Zhejiang Army's formation one hundred and fifty meters away. The Zhejiang Army still had no movement at all and did not shoot an arrow. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then said half confused and half sneer.
"Hahahaha, I was just joking. But I didn't know that the Zhejiang Army was so unbearable that it was really scared to death!"
Ma Ye shook his head and laughed.
"Yes, haven't we investigated it? Isn't the commander of the Zhejiang Army the new top scholar in the court? He is only in his prime. He is a weak scholar who is still young. It's normal for the first time to see such a big battle. But I didn't expect that this guy was even worse than Zhao Kuo who talked about war on paper. Zhao Kuo had fought with the killing god Bai Qi for several months. This guy was scared silly as soon as he met us. He was really useless as a scholar."
Chen Dong thought about the situation he had investigated before, and the commander of the Zhejiang Army was a young scholar, and he couldn't help but feel that the possibility of being frightened was very high and he sneered.
"Really scared?!"
Xu Hai was also a little unsure at this time. The forwards had already rushed to the Zhejiang Army's crossbow range, so why didn't the Zhejiang Army move?
"Haha, I just said that Brother Xu is too cautious and looks down on them too highly." Ma Ye smiled with his arms in his arms.
"Yaxi! The big thing is settled! The guys have already rushed to a distance of 100 meters, and they have reached the range of our Japanese bow. Look, Haneda Hoedaro, who is in the forward, has already led a hundred archers to lead the bow and shoot arrows, suppress the Ming army, and escort the rest of the people."
When Hojo Dozo Mitsu saw a hundred archers split into the Japanese pirates' vanguards and suppressed the low walls of the Zhejiang army, he said with a happy look.
"Good job!" Chen Dong and Ma Ye nodded happily.
Xu Hai frowned slightly, vaguely realizing something was wrong. The Zhejiang Army shouldn't be so incompetent.
In front, the Japanese pirate vanguard had already rushed to the front of the Zhejiang Army for a hundred meters away. Haneda Hoshitaro took a hundred archers and stopped at a distance of one hundred meters, lined up in a row, with each person standing tall, taking out a feather arrow from the quiver on his waist, leading the bow toward the low wall, and shooting it. Liu Dadao hurriedly raised his shield to protect Zhu Ping'an.
Behind the low wall, the Zhejiang army in the back row also took out their shields and raised them to protect their comrades in front and themselves.
One hundred bows and arrows were shot sparsely, with a very strong force, and I heard it at the right time. More than one hundred arrows, at least ninety arrows shot in the direction.
However, due to the fact that there is a short wall that is tall, a shield, and a cotton armor with an oversized protective area on the Zhejiang Army.
Most of the Japanese pirates' bows and arrows shot to the low walls. Those who had a tricky angle rushed straight to the front door were also blocked by the shields. The ejected feather arrows fell behind the low walls and were nailed to the unprepared Zhejiang Army, and were also blocked by the cotton armor of the Zhejiang Army.
This round of feather arrows from the Japanese pirates did not cause any harm to the Zhejiang army.
Haneda Hoshitaro was not depressed at all, but on the contrary, there was a smile on his face, because under the cover of his feather arrows, the Japanese pirates' forward rushed for more than ten meters. With another round of feather arrows, they could cover the forward to rush into within fifty meters.
A distance of fifty meters, which is only a few breaths, is a major matter.
"Cum again!"
Haneda Hoshitaro ordered loudly.
The Japanese pirates under his command followed his order to draw bows and shoot arrows again. As in the previous round, this round did not cause any harm to the Zhejiang Army. Only one unlucky Zhejiang Army was shot by the bow and arrow.
Haneda Hoshitaro was very excited because the forward had already rushed to within fifty meters.
"Give up the bow, kill him!"
Haneda Hoshitaro shouted, first threw down the longbow in his hand, drew out the Japanese sword and rushed forward. His subordinate Okuo followed him, threw down the longbow, and followed him with the Japanese sword.
Just after Haneda Hitotaro rushed a few steps, he heard the loud shout from Commander Akito in front of him, "Let's fire!"
Then, I saw dazzling fires lit up in the low wall in front, followed by a deafening "bang bang" gun.
Then, nothing happened.
