Chapter 356 Night
They marched quickly this time, and when they arrived, they found that the Japanese pirates had already surrounded Haiyu Township, screaming, and the people inside hid in fright, but Haiyu Township was already on guard because of its remoteness.
The wall outside the township has been repaired, the wall is quite high, and the gate is very strong, the Japanese pirates couldn't get in for a long time.
In addition, there are some youths in Shangxiang guarding the gate with harpoons. The high-strength thick soil and the solid gate only persisted until the arrival of reinforcements.
There are beacons of exchange of news between townships.
It was different when Wantong and the others came, and they directly used the grenade. When it came to actual combat, Wantong realized that the power of the grenade was really not covered!
And the muskets they brought, three-stage shooting, after two rounds, the Japanese pirates surrendered directly!
But Wantong didn't mean to keep all of them, only the leader was left behind, and the rest were chopped off at the seaside!
This deterrence was huge, and the people clapped their hands and applauded, but then there was an urgent military news: Yuepu Town was attacked by pirates!
"Assemble!" Wantong asked someone to blow the whistle: "March quickly to Yuepu Town!"
The Yuepu area is named for its water. It was built in the Song Dynasty. It is adjacent to the estuary of the Yangtze River in the east, Baoshan in the south, Luodian in the west, and Shanghai County in the north.
Moreover, there is Luojing Beach in Yuepu Town, which can be used as a place for sea ships to land.
When Wantong hurriedly marched overnight, Wu Youwei was having dinner here.
Wu Youwei took a stroll to the city wall after dinner. Now the moat is so wide that there are only three stone bridges through it. The bustling crowds have disappeared; now there is not a single sparrow on it.
The city wall was full of soldiers, and they had dinner on the city wall. Half of them were on duty, and half rested. Of course, the resting place was also on the city wall. There were too few people, so they dared not change shifts. Just wait until Master Wan comes back. .
But now it was time to prepare for the war, and Wu Youwei provided military funds in the name of the Shanghai County Government, so their meals were all provided by Shanghai County, rice and braised pork.
The reason why there is no stewed sea fish is because you have to spit out the spines when eating fish, and you are afraid of delaying time.
Two bowls of top-notch rice and a bowl of oily braised pork, if not enough, you can go for more.
Wu Youwei walked around the city wall and found a lot of hot weapons. He was in a good mood. In addition, everyone was surrounded by grenades and grenades, and there were some places outside the city that were not easy to defend. A large number of landmines were buried in the defensive places.
Wrapped in a tarpaulin, the kind that explodes as soon as you step on it. In modern times, Wu Youwei's favorite TV series "Landmine Warfare" had this kind of mine. …
After looking around and greeting him, it was already late at night when Wu Youwei returned to the county government because all these people were defending the city.
Wu Youwei sent someone to deliver some red bean soup.
Supper cannot be delivered, because people will get tired after eating supper, so soldiers never eat supper.
Sending red bean soup is just to wick away moisture and sweat.
When the person who brought the red bean soup came back, it was already midnight, and Wu Youwei couldn't fall asleep. He had insomnia at this time, and he just lay on the bed with his eyes closed and fell asleep.
I really couldn't fall asleep, so I started to hypnotize myself. Other people's hypnosis is counting sheep, but he hypnotized... tens of thousands of times!
One Wantong, two Wantong, three Wantong...
As a result, when 1 Wantong was found, he fell asleep.
But it felt like he hadn't slept for long before he was woken up.
The next day was a sunny day. Some villagers were eager to go fishing, but they were stopped by the head of the village and the elders.
Looking at the bright sun outside, Wu Youwei has been waiting for news from Wantong.
And Wantong, at this time, was chasing a group of pirates fiercely, and the other party dropped a lot of luggage, just thinking about letting the Ming army behind pick up those things, so as to delay their pursuit.
At the beginning, they just left some pots and pans, rice, flour, grain and oil. These things are actually quite attractive to ordinary guard soldiers, but for the people brought by Wantong, the enemy is what they pursue Target.
No one picked up those things at all, but the victimized people who came out with them actually picked up their own things behind them!
Your family's pot covers his family's basket.....
When the pursuit was far away, the people did not dare to continue to follow, packed up their things and went back.
And the pirates who fled in front saw that the people behind were about to catch up with them, so they hurriedly continued to throw things down.
What they threw away this time was good stuff, and they were reluctant to part with it, but they had to throw it down, silk and satin, silk brocade and so on.
People in the south of the Yangtze River grow mulberry and raise silkworms, plow the fields and weave cloth, all of which are expensive silk products.
But these things did not stop the pursuers.
"Whoever beheads one rank will be rewarded! Ten beheads will be promoted!" Wantong chased after the front, holding a big knife and shouting loudly: "Chasing!
The hot-blooded little wolf cubs behind him rushed forward screaming.
The pirate leader running ahead vomited blood when he heard it: "What the hell are you still letting people live? I've given you so many things, do you want me to leave them all and just run away empty-handed?
There are also pirates who are more interesting, throwing things while running and shouting behind: "Stop chasing, these things are all for you!"
Wantong, who was chasing him, was also depressed: "Stop!"
stop?
Only fools stop!
These people ran like girls in front of them, and the people behind chased them for a while, and found that these people ran fast with bare feet, especially now that they were on the beach, these people were about to run forward and enter the water... Wantong directly tore the grenade from his waist, pulled the ring and threw it out.
It was useless before because at that time it was next to the village, surrounded by fields, and if you blasted holes one by one, the crops of the people would be ruined.
But now that I run to the beach, surrounded by sandy beaches, I don’t have to be afraid.
If they should be bombed, they must be bombed. They can't be put into the sea ship, and they will really be unable to catch up.
The pirates in front were running so hard that their lungs were blown out, when suddenly there was an explosion behind them!
Looking back, okay, all of a sudden, a lot of little black things flew over, and their last consciousness was the sound of rumbling explosions...
The day was calm, Wu Youwei went up to the city wall to offer condolences again after eating.
There is no way, Wantong is not here, he consciously wants to improve the relationship between the army and the people, and even told those people some combat experience.
He has no actual combat experience, but he has been in the Jagged Forum. If he was not in poor health at that time and could not pass the physical examination, he really wanted to be a soldier.
The people taught by Wantong were originally elites, and now they are the elites among the elites, and their quality is quite good.
But he admired Wu Youwei very much. It was really unexpected that Wu Youwei, a civil servant, could know so much combat experience.
No wonder Lord Wan is so close to this little county magistrate.
Co-authoring means having a common language!
Wu Youwei squatted on the city wall and chatted with others for a whole day, and when he had lunch at noon, he always ate the same thing as them on top of the wall.
It's just that today's meal is still rice, braised pork, and an extra vegetable soup.
Maybe it's because people eat more?Wu Youwei actually ate half a bowl of braised pork, the person in charge of serving who followed him saw it, and wondered if the master should come to eat on the wall next time?This is a lot to eat...
While Wu Youwei was eating, Wantong was already cleaning the battlefield.
"My lord, we came yesterday and wiped out more than 50 Japanese pirates and more than 100 pirates. Shouldn't it be reported for credit?" The young general who came with Wantong smiled and wiped his face. A head. "Statistics are good, take a break for a while, and tomorrow we will go to the surrounding villages to avoid any enemies left behind!" Wantong looked at the pirates who were captured alive: "Don't kill these people, ask them, Any news? This season should be the time when pirates come ashore and kill as many as they can.
It is said that Jiangnan is a land of fish and rice, but only after I arrived at Wantong Jiangnan did I realize that the land of fish and rice is also divided into places. Places close to mansions and Dazhou capitals are naturally rich in output, but most of those places are controlled by aristocratic families, or high-ranking officials. .
Weaving and farming are barely enough to make ends meet.
But people living near the sea are even more difficult. No wonder Youwei attaches great importance to the sea. These pirates are not bad, but those Japanese pirates are simply not human!
So Wu Youwei left behind the leader of the Japanese pirates who could speak Chinese, and the rest were chopped off. The pirates tricked them into reducing their crimes, and after they were recruited, they were all chopped off too!
At night, Wantong read the confession under the light. These people were only part of the many pirates and pirates, and they knew the hiding places of at least a dozen gangs of pirates and pirates.
Wantong took out the sea chart that Wu Youwei had drawn based on the memory of the future world. He remembered some places, but to be honest, he really didn't remember some places.
But I can probably remember it.
Who told Wu Youwei to be a master teacher back then, but the geography class was subsidized, so he prepared the lesson very comprehensively.
Maps of the whole country can be drawn, and there will be no mistakes.
At that time, Shanghai was the Pearl of the Orient, so Wu Youwei has a deep memory. He remembers Beijing, Guangzhou and Shanghai, which were the cities with the highest housing prices at that time.
However, there are countless small islands in the sea, and what Wu Youwei can remember are some beautiful islands, as for those less famous ones, he really doesn't know.
Especially the island of husband and wife, where a couple guards an island, it does exist in later generations, so Wu Youwei doesn't know about it.
Wantong can find a general place, but he has never been there and doesn't know the situation, so he thinks more. It is not unreasonable to think carefully. There are no casualties among the people he brought out so far!
This is also a miracle...
After the sun went down, Xujiahui entered a quiet sleep time. Soldiers guarding the village patrolled the fence with swords, guns, swords and halberds and hot weapons hidden in their waists.
In the village, there are spontaneously formed young and strong patrols in front of each house.
Xu Sihai watched them walking back and forth on patrol, but he was really too lazy to move, so he found a place with a leeward wind, and made a nest there. Later, when everyone was tired from walking, they rested beside them.
I was bored and didn't dare to sleep, so I started chatting: "Master Wan took people out for two days, and I don't know what's going on.
"If people don't come back after three days, tell me, can you resume work?"
"Should it be possible? We don't care, those migrant workers must not eat and drink for nothing, right?"
"I hope the army will come back soon, now the pirates and Japanese pirates don't know when they will be able to...
The content of everyone's chat was nothing more than these things, Xu Sihai was so annoyed by what he heard, he just fell asleep.
He woke up from hunger in the middle of the night. In the evening, he ate some wild vegetables and stewed a sea fish. There was no staple food, but the sea fish was big enough to barely satisfy his hunger.
Now he is hungry, what to do?
Others who patrolled like him have gone back to rest now, and they naturally have another group of people patrolling in the middle of the night.
Even if he wanted to steal something, he had no place to do it, and at this time, so many people were tense, so he didn't dare to make people angry!
I had no choice but to crawl out from the dog hole under the high wall.
Fortunately, he is very thin, so there is no problem in getting in and out, so how about looking for something to eat?
After walking a long way, he found a wild peach grove. The peaches were not very ripe at this time, so he walked a long way into it, almost out of the peach grove, before he found some edible ones.
"It's really bad luck to just order peaches like this!" Xu Sihai wiped the peaches with his sleeve, and immediately bit into his mouth, it was quite sweet.
He is also hungry, as the saying goes, "Hungry is as sweet as honey, and full as honey is not sweet." He is hungry now, and Li Zizi has nothing, so whatever he eats is naturally delicious. A hand stretched out...
