Chapter 247 fierce battle
Inoueta was able to become a low-level samurai, not only had excellent martial arts, but also had a flexible mind. The moment the cannon sounded, he understood that he had to capture it.
Otherwise, the ships entering the port will be under the threat of the other party. Although the other party only has three cannons, their power is surprisingly great.
Instead of letting the ship close to the dock, he rushed directly to the shore. Compared with the many ships that continued to dock in the port, his ship was not surprisingly successful and rushed to the beach.
Inouda immediately asked his subordinates to call on the soldiers who came ashore to gather, and not long after, more than 300 people gathered. Although there were not many people, Inouda did not intend to wait any longer and rushed to the top of the mountain with his people.
Only a height of several dozen feet can be considered low hills. They climbed up smoothly, but when they approached the cave, they encountered trouble.
The low shrub that originally grew on the hillside was cut down. What made Inoueta want to curse was that the Ming people still had about a foot of the tree roots cut down by the shrubs.
The roots of these trees are unevenly thick and thin, and they stay on the hillside. The tops are cut diagonally like sharp thorns, which will hurt the calf by accident, making Inoueta who climbs the mountain unhappy. But he has no time to clean these roots, so he can only make people move forward carefully.
Just as he was about to approach the top of the mountain, a row of smoked bamboo tubes fell from the sky. Inoueda instantly widened his eyes and shouted: "Let's go down! Akito throws away ten thousand enemies!"
The Japanese are no longer as ignorant as before about this kind of explosive bamboo tube. They know that just by lying down, they can reduce the chance of casualties.
After Iouda gave the order, he was stunned. There were sharp tree roots everywhere. He was lying down and was not tied into a sieve?
Looking around eagerly, Inoueta's eyes lit up, and he finally saw a position where he could barely lie down, but a foot lighter was faster than him and had already stood on the narrow clearing.
The smoked bamboo tubes were getting closer and closer, and Inoueda no longer cared about it and shouted: "Madonna!"
The sir who was about to climb down was obviously stunned when he heard this, turned his head and looked at Inoueta beside him. Just as the other party was stunned for a moment, Inoueta quickly lay out in the empty ground, and at the same time grabbed Wu Xiong and covered him on his body.
The explosion sounded, and the Japanese who had nowhere to hide were blown up. The screams mixed with the explosion sounded, and more than a dozen Japanese were thrown to the bottom of the mountain. More people were pierced by the roots of the tree on the ground and fell in a pool of blood.
Inoueta finally woke up from his dizziness, but just about to get up, he heard the sound of muskets. He unconsciously grabbed the martial bear on his body.
The gunshots were mixed with vague Chinese words: "Shoot...battle...kill Japanese pirates..."
Inouetian instantly widened his eyes, his breathing became rapid, and he wanted to shrink his entire body under Wu Xiong.
Compared with the Ming people who were like a tiger going down the mountain, the foot of the explosion was so dizzy that it was blown away without any resistance. With just one counterattack, hundreds of corpses were left on the hillside.
Inoueta didn't know how he survived, and the knife that pierced the body of Wu Xiong, struck his neck against his neck. If Yamashita hadn't organized a second attack, the Mingren wouldn't have retreated at all.
After several tug-of-wars, the Ming people gave up shelling at the port and replaced them with shotguns and directly killed the Japanese who were attacking the mountains. The Japanese corpses covered the hillside, and blood gathered into a red stream, slowly flowing to the foot of the mountain.
I don’t know that I have been fighting for too long, but with a loud noise that shook the sky, the cave on the top of the mountain disappeared, leaving behind a piece of soil and gravel.
Kuroda officer and Wei was standing on the deck and saw that the harbor was full of ship fragments, and his eyebrows couldn't help but jump.
Unexpectedly, just landing on Sado Island, I paid fourteen large and small warships and more than four hundred Japanese lives.
But the wise man who asked him to give all this calmly retreated. That's right! He just retreated!
He didn't believe what his subordinates said at all. No matter how stupid the Ming people were, they would not detonate the cave and commit suicide. The only explanation was that there must be other exits in the cave.
The most common ones on Sado Island are miners, so it is not too easy to dig out a passage that can retreat.
I originally wanted to wait until the warship that eliminated the Seongmei people and then deal with the Seongmei people on the island. But the other party took the initiative to provoke, and Kuroda officer and soldiers did not mind letting their soldiers see blood before the war.
It has been a while since the besiege of Sado Island. I believe the Ming people have received the news that the Ming people on the island are no longer so important.
If he could cause so many casualties from his men, I believe the Ming people on the island were all elite. At least the power of the artillery was very powerful, which was much stronger than the Japanese big tube.
But what made Kuroda officers and soldiers feel a little regretful is the artillery buried on the top of the mountain. If several Mingren artillery cannons can be seized, they will also play a significant role in the subsequent battle.
"Sir! You have brought the person you want!"
Kuroda officer and soldier were thinking about the next battle when a samurai walked into the cabin and bowed.
Learning from Tokugawa Ieyasu's lesson, Kuroda officers and soldiers did not camp on the shore at all, but ordered all ships to stand by. Once there was news from Aoi, they would go to sea to fight decisively.
"I am the subordinate Inouda to pay homage to General Kuroda!" Inouda, who was covered in blood, bowed respectfully.
Kuroda officer and soldier nodded with satisfaction and said, "Kun Inoue! It is the glory of every samurai who can fight to the death for Toyotomi. You are the first to attack the mountain today and the last samurai to retreat. Tell me what you think of the Ming people!"
When Inouda heard this, he blushed a little. The reason why he could live on the mountain for a long time was that he was hiding under the corpse of his companion and did not dare to show his head at all.
But in front of Kuroda, he couldn't say that, and immediately said seriously: "Master Kuroda! My subordinates think that Mingren's firearms and armor are powerful, but there are not many people. As long as Mingren is trapped, it should not be difficult to destroy them.
In addition, the Japanese swords have little effect on Ming people's armor. The effects of heavy weapons such as Tai swords and puncture sticks are much better. This is what I think of for the time being. Please ask Lord Kuroda to atone for his sins!"
After hearing this, Kuroda officer and soldier smiled and said, "Inoue! You said it well. I'll give you two thousand people, are you sure to capture Sado Island?"
When Inoueda heard this, he knelt down excitedly and kowtowed hard and said, "Thank you, Lord Kuroda for your cultivation. Inoue will surely capture Sado Island and kill everyone on the island!"
"Yeah! Very good! Go and prepare!"
...
"Back! Back! Are you ready, Zhang Shuangquan? Brothers can't stand it!" Anfei Yanggu's voice echoed in the mine cave, and the dust shaking fell.
"Give me three more breaths!" Zhang Shuangquan responded, ran quickly to the depths of the mine, inserted the fuse into the bamboo tube and ignited it quickly.
"Get another shot and leave, don't forget to cover your ears!" Ahfei Yanggu raised the musket and pulled the trigger. After firing, he quickly raised the musket and turned around and ran away, not forgetting to cover his ears with both hands.
Chapter completed!
