Chapter 698: Encirclement and Reinforcements
Therefore, Xu Hai and the others calmed down again after a short period of fear. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Ye Ma's face showed a cruel smile:
"The officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are tofu, which will break when you touch it. Since we don't have a ship, then we will sweep the southeast, occupy the whole southeast, and we will be the king of the southeast, and let Wang Zhi continue to eat salt in the sea alone. ”
Xu Hai also sat down, and said with a gloomy face: "This matter must not be left like this. When we swept the southeast, captured the Daming Navy, and had a ship, we went to Wang Zhi to take revenge. Damn, he dared to provoke Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu had already looked at him unpleasantly. ”
Xin Wulang said with a murderous face: "Where do we fight first?" ”
"Hangzhou!" Ye Ma said murderously: "Let's go to Hangzhou first, and kill that Luo Xin, which can be regarded as completing the transaction with those families." Then let them provide us with all kinds of supplies for our sweep to the southeast, and if they don't cooperate, kill them all. ”
"Yes!" Xin Goro said excitedly.
"No!" Xu Hai suddenly shook his head and said, "Now we are not just for trading, but we are ready to occupy the entire southeast, so we have to consider it holistically." If we want to occupy the southeast, it doesn't matter what kind of Laoshzi Luo Xin is, the important thing is that we must kill Hu Zongxian, as long as we kill Hu Zongxian, there will be no one in the southeast to stop us. By the time the court learned the news, dispatched the army, and came to the southeast again, we had already occupied the southeast, and at that time we would wrestle with the Ming Dynasty. If we can't break it, we will hold on to the southeast, or retreat to the sea, and by then we will have a ship. If the army sent by the Dog Emperor is still vulnerable, then we will go directly to Beijing, and maybe we can also be emperors. ”
Ye Ma, Xin Golang and the others listened to the more their eyes brightened, and they couldn't help asking, "Then how do we do it?" ”
"Go to Hangzhou." Xu Hai said in a condensed voice.
Everyone looked stunned, and Ye Ma said, "Isn't that the same as us?" ”
"It's different!" Xu Hai shook his head and smiled: "We only surround Hangzhou and don't fight." ”
"Don't fight!" Shingoro asked in surprise.
"Yes, we're going to send reinforcements." Xu Hai said proudly: "We will surround Hangzhou City, wait for Hu Zongxian to come to the rescue, and then we will ambush Hu Zongxian in the middle of the road and wipe him out." ”
"Good!" Everyone thought for a while, and applauded together.
"Greetings brothers, go to Hangzhou."
Suzhou.
"Could it be Wang Zhi?"
In the Governor's Palace, Hu Zongxian said suspiciously, he also received the news that Xu Hai and others' ships were snatched, and his first thought was that even if Wang Zhi did it, because on the sea today, only Wang Zhi has this strength.
But why did Wang Zhi do this?
After Hu Zongxian calmed down, he began to suspect the matter. He felt that no matter what purpose Wang Zhi had for robbing Xu Hai and their ship, Wang Zhi would definitely send someone to contact him, because Wang Zhi had helped Hu Zongxian, and he would definitely use it as a bargaining chip to benefit Hu Zongxian.
But...... Wang Zhi didn't, which had to make Hu Zongxian wonder if Wang Zhi had done it.
However, if it wasn't Wang Zhi who did it, then who did it?
In the Southeast, who else has such strength at sea? Dare to provoke Xu Hai, Ye Ma and Xin Goro?
If this really wasn't done by Wang Zhi, but by another pirate who was not strong......
Hu Zongxian fell into deep thought, the pirate who was not strong took advantage of them and Xu Hai, Ye Ma, Xin Wulang's men knew each other, and pretended to come to the shore to join Xu Hai and others, but suddenly attacked Xu Hai and their ships, killed Xu Hai and their men, and took Xu Hai's ship. On the sea, where there are ships, there are people, and it won't be long before that pirate who is not strong will become a huge force that is not weaker than Wang Zhi.
And what about Xu Hai, Ye Ma and Xin Goro and others?
Hu Zongxian's face gradually became ugly, and he suddenly felt that the mysterious person who snatched the ship of Xu Hai and others might be a pirate, this pirate talent!
Xu Hai and the others lost their ships, and they were bound to occupy a place in the southeast, and then aim at the sailors and seize the sailors' ships. But how could Hu Zongxian let them take away the sailor's boat?
In this way, Hu Zongxian had to fight, even if Hu Zongxian did not win in the end, Xu Hai, Ye Ma and Xin Wulang and others would not have much left, and when the time came, together with other reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty, Xu Hai and others would die. In this way, the mysterious pirate would no longer worry about Xu Hai and the others seeking revenge on him, and he eliminated the enemy for him with the help of his Hu Zongxian. It has become one of the largest forces on the sea like Wang Zhi.
What a talent! Great talent!
Hu Zongxian had to sigh, but at this time, he had already sorted out the dead end, and immediately sent someone to inform the sailor, so that the sailor was on guard against the surprise attack of Xu Hai and others, and when necessary, he could retreat to the sea, but he would never let Xu Hai and others grab a boat. Then he also reorganized his men and horses, and was ready to assist the sailors at any time.
Hangzhou.
City Division.
In the study, Luo Xin, Luo Qing and Qi Jiguang sat separately. Luo Qing said: "Little brother, why are you in such a hurry to call us?" ”
Luo Xin said with a serious expression: "Brother Yuan Jing, eldest brother, the Japanese are coming to Hangzhou." ”
"How so?" Luo Qing looked shocked and said, "Our scouts are monitoring the Japanese Kou every day, and they have no movement towards Hangzhou. General Qi, could it be that your scouts discovered the movements of the Japanese Invaders? ”
"Nope!" Qi Jiguang shook his head and said, "I didn't receive the news, where did the adults get the news?" ”
"The Japanese have not yet marched to Hangzhou, but the day of rushing to Hangzhou will not be far away, maybe in these three or five days, your scouts will receive the news." Luo Xin said in a condensed voice.
"You...... Is there a mole in the Wako? Qi Jiguang looked at Luo Xin in shock.
"Nope!" Luo Xin shook his head and said: "But I received a piece of news, I don't know if it was the sea force, maybe it was Wang Zhi, who snatched the ships left at sea by Xu Hai, Ye Ma and Xin Wulang and others." ”
Qi Jiguang's eyes flashed with wisdom, and he said while thinking: "In this way, Xu Hai and they have no way out. ”
Luo Qing and Luo Xin glanced at each other, although Luo Xin hadn't had time to talk to Luo Qing in private, but Luo Qing knew that the person who robbed Xu Hai and the others' ships was not Wang Zhi, but Luo Sheng. His heart became excited, and he secretly clenched his fists, and secretly said in his heart:
"My cousin made it."
Qi Jiguang on the side was shocked and said, "The sailor is in danger." ”
Luo Xin shook his head and said, "It depends on how big the hearts of Xu Hai and the others are. ”
"What do you mean, sir?" Qi Jiguang's eyes showed a look of shock and said, "Xu Hai and the others still want to occupy the southeast?" ”
Luo Xin nodded and said: "Xu Hai is not a simple person, from the position he put in this time, it can be seen that he still knows some strategies if he wants to wrap Hu Zongxian's dumplings." Now that he has no way out, I think Hu Zongxian also got the news, and Hu Zongxian must have thought that Xu Hai and others would raid the sailors and seize the warship. will definitely lay a net against Xu Hai's actions, waiting for Xu Hai to go to the water division and wipe out Xu Hai there. This time, it was not Xu Hai who made Hu Zongxian's dumplings, but Hu Zongxian who wanted to make Xu Hai's dumplings.
But......
Hu Zongxian can think of it, and Xu Hai must also be able to think of it. So Xu Hai will not go to the water division, but will come to attack Hangzhou. ”
"Attack Hangzhou?"
Qi Jiguang was still a little skeptical, but at this time, Luo Xin's heart was racing, and his judgment of the situation became clearer and clearer. With a glint of wisdom in his eyes, he said as he pondered:
Therefore, even if Xu Hai and the others wanted to snatch the sailor's warship, they would not go at this time, knowing that it was a net that Hu Zongxian could not penetrate, he would not drill it. If he wanted to capture the naval warship, he had to first defeat Hu Zongxian's army. Then he was able to take advantage of the general trend of victory and win the sailor division in one fell swoop.
So Xu Hai needs a chance, if he doesn't have a chance, he will also create an opportunity, a chance to hit Hu Zongxian hard. This opportunity is Hangzhou. ”
Luo Xin looked in the direction where the five great families lived, and said lightly: "At the beginning, this Xu Hai was hired by the five great families, but I didn't expect that now they can't control these pirates, but their financial resources have attracted Xu Hai, so Xu Hai must come to Hangzhou and kill me Luo Xin, which can be regarded as completing the transaction with the five great families, and then forcing the five great families to raise materials for them and attack the entire southeast." ”
"This ...... They only captured Hangzhou, but they may not be able to hit the ministry hard. Qi Jiguang asked puzzled.
"They're going to come to the rescue."
Luo Xin's heart had a flash of inspiration, and the situation in his chest suddenly became clear: "They will besiege the city of Hangzhou without fighting, and then ambush Hu Zongxian who came to the rescue, when they cripple Hu Zongxian, they will capture Hangzhou in one go and become their base to occupy the southeast." If Hu Zongxian was really crippled by the ambush, the southeast would fall in a very short period of time, and the chaos of the Ming Dynasty would be big. ”
"We'll have to inform the Ministry." Qi Jiguang said hurriedly.
Luo Xin nodded and said, "I left to repair the book and sent someone to send it to Hu Butang." ”
"When Lord Ministries received the letter, will they watch Hangzhou being besieged and not come to the rescue?" Luo Qing asked with some concern.
"No!" Luo Xin shook his head and said, "When Lord Butang receives this letter, he will definitely not believe that Xu Hai will attack Hangzhou. He will still be sure that Xu Hai will attack the sailor, so he will still set up a net of heaven and earth in the sailor. When he finds out that Xu Hai and they are really besieging Hangzhou, he will believe my words and believe that Xu Hai will surround and send reinforcements. However, Hangzhou cannot be lost, if Hangzhou is lost, he Hu Zongxian will bear the greatest responsibility, this is the capital city, not the county seat. He Hu Zongxian sat in the southeast, but let Hangzhou fall, and His Majesty would cut off his head. So, he's going to come, but with my reminder, he's not going to fall for it. ”
Luo Qing raised his eyebrows and said: "Little brother, it's better to plant land mines outside in advance like you did last time when you guarded the capital, not to mention that Xu Hai only has more than 50,000 people, even 200,000, and he can defeat them in one go." ”
Qi Jiguang also raised his eyebrows when he heard this, he had long heard the prestige of the land mine made by Luo Xin, and he had always wanted to see it with his own eyes. couldn't help but look at Luo Xin expectantly. Luo Xin shook his head and said:
"No, I can't. If the mines were planted in advance, they had to be detonated before they set up camp, otherwise they would have discovered it when they set up camp. After such a detonation, the actual number of enemies killed is not large, and the pirates will scatter and flee, and when they regroup, it will be another trouble. Therefore, we have to wait, wait for the army of the Lord of the Ministry to arrive, and at that time, the inside and outside will be combined to wipe out Xu Hai and them. This is a rare opportunity, in the past, after Xu Hai and others went ashore, once they encountered a large army, they would evacuate and escape by boat. Now that they have no way out, a bunch of pirates are like fish out of water, so they must be caught this time. In this way, Wang Zhi is left on the sea, and it is much easier to deal with. I missed this opportunity, and I will never have such an opportunity again. ”
"But...... After waiting for Xu Hai and them to set up camp, how to bury the ground mines? Qi Jiguang asked confusedly.
Luo Xin smiled: "There is no need to bury ground mines, we can use catapults to throw thunderbolts into the camp of the Japanese Bandits." I've studied these pirates, don't look at their fierceness in the southeast, in fact they haven't experienced a real war. Brother Yuan Jing, to tell the truth, the scale and intensity of the war in the Japanese rebellion here in the southeast were much worse than those in the north. The Ming officials in the southeast were eroded, and the fighting effectiveness of the Japanese was not strong, and the experience of attacking the city was also lacking, they often camped not far from the city wall, and the catapults were completely able to throw thunderbolts into the camp of the Japanese invaders. At that time, taking advantage of the panic of the Japanese invaders, we should join forces with Hu Butang inside and outside, and Hangzhou City is the place where Xu Hai and their bones are buried. ”
Suzhou.
Wan Daquan stood in front of Hu Zongxian, Hu Zongxian looked at Luo Xin's letter in his hand, and disapproval flashed in his eyes. Putting down the letter, he said lightly:
"If you go back and tell him, just say that Ben Shuai knows."
"Yes! Humble resignation. ”
Watching Wan Daquan leave, Yu Dayou, who was sitting in the camp tent, said softly: "Lord Ministry, what is the letter from Lord Luo?" ”
Hu Zongxian smiled faintly and said: "The letter said that the Japanese will go to Hangzhou, and then wait for us to come to the rescue and surround the point to send reinforcements." ”
Yu Dayou's face also showed disapproval: "How come? Now the most anxious thing for the Japanese is to get a ship, they will definitely attack the sailors, how can they go to Hangzhou? ”
"That's what I said!" Hu Zongxian said with a smile: "No, he still doesn't know the southeast, let alone the Japanese Kou, he thinks badly." ”
"Hehehe......" The generals in the tent all laughed, and the laughter was full of disapproval.
Hangzhou City.
Now Luo Xin's manor outside Hangzhou City, the people who have seen the light have been taken away by Luo Sheng. Therefore, Luo Xin transferred all the people in the manor to Hangzhou City and let them live in the rear office of the city. At this time, they were secretly making thunderbolts, and at the same time, Luo Xin drew a picture of the catapult and handed it to Song Danian, so that the workshop of the prefect's yamen began to make the catapult. At the same time, the workshop also made a batch of barbed wire and some iron rods, and asked Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing to lead people to make holes in their daughter's wall.
