Chapter 148: Self-Defense

The pirates outside the liquor store had already discovered the arrival of reinforcements from the other side, and hurriedly organized dozens of arquebuses to form a gun formation to aim at the officers and men of the Far East Navy in the distance.

A large force of officers and soldiers from the Far East came in formation, led by dozens of Japanese samurai from the Death Brigade, who were draped all over their bodies, wore grimaces on their faces, and had samurai swords stuck in their backs. It looks murderous and exudes a terrifying aura.

The first few daredevils in the front row held several Russian-style explosion-proof shields, and they were also wrapped in several layers of dirty linen cloth to make them look tattered, and the daredevils in the back hid behind the shields, but everyone's speed was not slow.

"Bang...... Bang ......"

As soon as the officers and men of the Far East stepped into the firing range, the arquebuses in the hands of the pirates on the opposite side opened fire almost simultaneously. More than a dozen hot lead bullets smashed the explosion-proof shield, shaking the daredevils holding the shields in the first row to retreat again and again.

But the daredevils in the back slowly moved forward with their bodies against the samurai in the first row. When the pirates' three rows of muskets had finished, twenty Dutch sailors rushed up with arquebuses, mounted them on their shields, and fired a volley of buckshots.

The formation of the pirate musketeers on the opposite side was disrupted in an instant, and the samurai of the daredevils took advantage of the chaos of the opponent's position, and rushed over with their shields, and dozens of samurai drew their katanas and killed them from behind the shields, slashing at these panicked pirate musketeers.

Dozens of pirate musketeers were killed by the fierce daredevils in an instant, and the rest of the pirates threw down their muskets and turned around and wanted to run, but they were immediately chased by the fierce warriors and killed.

The officers and men of the Far East, continuing to maintain formation, rushed into the streets. Several naval officers and men received Li Shaofeng's order, climbed up to the roof with snibter rifles, occupied several vantage points, and began to name the pirates on the roof opposite the liquor store.

Several pirates lying on the roof had their heads blown off, and the rest of the pirates jumped off the roof, but many pirates were still killed and wounded, and countless pirate corpses were thrown on the roof.

After the Far Eastern Army took control of the roof, their formation began to speed up significantly, and after a short time they were pushed to the door of the wine shop, where they reorganized their formation.

Li Shaojie and Fujii also returned to the queue at this time, a group of naval officers and soldiers came over, and everyone was relieved to see that none of them were injured.

At this time, the pirates on the opposite side also gathered all the people, and there were two or three hundred people. They formed several loose rows of arquebuses, and more pirates with swords and short guns shouted behind the arquebus formations, and the formation was even more disorganized.

Pirates are pirates after all, and although they are strong, they are only in narrow ships. Now in such an environment, it is not enough to see.

Qiu Lei next to him was blocked in the wine shop by the other party for a long time just now, and he was always on fire in his heart. He turned his head and said angrily to Li Shaojie: "Let's just throw the grenade into their queue in a while and blow up the damn thing." ”

Li Shaojie shook his head and said: "Those British may be hiding nearby and watching us, it is easy for us to destroy each other, but once our strength is exposed, then they will be wary, and we will never have a chance again." ”

After he finished speaking, he issued a loud order: "Fujita, you organize an attack now, and defeat them as much as possible, it is best to fight quickly, if the trouble continues, someone should come forward." ”

Fujita received the order and immediately went to the front row of the queue and began to lead the troops forward to attack. The entire procession, under the cover of several blast shields, began to move forward slowly.

The pirates on the opposite side saw them coming, and several rows of pirates with arquebuses fired their arquebuses. More than 100 hot lead bullets roared out of the barrel and hit the Far Eastern Army on the opposite side.

"Bang...... Bang ......"

More than 100 lead bullets smashed at least dozens on the riot shield, shaking the arms of the daredevils holding shields in the front row.

The pirates finished a round of arquebuses, and found that the shield on the opposite side was very strong, and they were not hurt at all, so they were very depressed, what kind of artifact was the other party holding, so many guns could resist,

They simply threw away their arquebuses, drew their swords, and rushed over in a swarm of people. Twenty Dutch musketeers ran to the front, set up arquebuses on their shields, and in an instant fired a round of buckshot, and several pirates who rushed to the front were instantly knocked upside down and flew out.

But the two or three hundred pirates who came after rushed forward without the slightest fear, and still rushed forward as if crazy. Fujita pulled out his 1628 revolver and shouted: "Revolver ready, only one shot at a time, fire in turn according to the formation." ”

The pirates had already rushed in to a distance of fifty meters, and when they saw that the Far Eastern Army had not yet fired their arquebuses, they became more and more excited, raised their knives and guns in their hands, and howled and pounced.

In their opinion, there were only a hundred or so people on the opposite side, and there were only twenty or thirty arquebuses, and these experienced pirates had a lot of people, and once they rushed up and fought hand-to-hand with the other party, they would definitely easily defeat the other party.

But what they didn't expect was that there was a sudden sound of popping beans on the opposite side, and then a cloud of smoke rose up, and the fierce pirate who rushed to the front felt as if he had been hit hard in the chest, and his body flew upside down, and then there was no more.

In order to hide the strength, and also not to let a repeating weapon like a revolver be discovered. Each of them fired only one shot at a time, but nearly a hundred revolvers were fired in a loop, and it was no joke.

The rain of bullets continued endlessly, making this group of pirates completely desperate, and before they could rush to within thirty meters of the other party's queue, dozens of people had already fallen, and the pirates behind immediately felt that something was wrong.

In the arquebus era, no matter how fast you loaded, you couldn't get to this point. The almost non-stop firing broke the form on both sides in no time, especially after a few pirates turned and fled, and the rest of the pirates stopped rushing. The battle could not be fought, and they turned and fled.

The escape of a few pirates, like a contagion, was joined by all the pirates. Fujita pulled out his katana and said it in Japanese, which he hadn't spoken in a long time.

"Kill to ......"

Then he took the lead in rushing out with a katana, and dozens of samurai of the daredevils also drew their katana and followed them out. Van Bit and the twenty Dutch sailors also took the swords they had just picked up, and roared forward with red eyes.

The battle ended quickly, most of those pirates fled, and the unlucky ones who ran slowly died under the knives of the daredevils and the Dutch, Li Shaojie knew that today's goal had been achieved, and he didn't want to make any more trouble, so he recalled the troops and cleaned up the scene on this street.

Suddenly, hundreds of fierce pirates rushed out from several street corners, and finally all gathered on this street, one by one looking at them with fierce eyes. Li Shaojie looked at each other with a smile, and waved his hand to signal everyone to assemble as a team.

Fujita turned around and glanced at the other party, and suddenly swung his knife violently, cutting off the head of a foreign devil pirate who was howling on the side of the street, and then turned his head with a cold face, looked at the other party coldly, turned around and returned to the Far Eastern army column arrogantly.

Li Shaojie looked at the pirates on the opposite side and found that most of them were composed of Ming Dynasty people, mixed with some Japanese and Koreans, and a middle-aged man led by them was looking at them with a smile.

The man took two steps forward and laughed: "I didn't expect that my Han family boy will have heroes and heroes wherever he is." Brother, look at the eyes, come back to us. Ha ha...... When you get to your brother, you don't cough, so that your brother can get drunk with you. ”

He was polite, and immediately turned pale, pointed to the messy alley, and said gloomily: "Let's talk about the rest later, let's talk about this matter first." Brother, it's not easy for me to support this business, let's go one yard to one yard, you are both knives and cannons today, make it like this, you have to give my brother an explanation.

If it's like you are today, then I can't do it here. Brother, don't say brother, I won't give you this face, if we don't figure out this matter today, we won't be able to drink this wine. ”

Li Shaojie's face changed, but he still smiled and said: "Brother first came to Baodi, I wanted to be happy here, but I have this temper, people don't offend me, I don't offend people, if people offend me, I will destroy him and the nine clans." It's causing trouble to my brother, brother, you can do whatever you want. ”

The middle-aged man listened to Li Shaojie's words, although there was no change on his face, his eyes were gloomy. The surrounding atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing, and even the pirates watching around could feel a cold murderous aura permeating the surroundings.

Suddenly, someone next to him spoke, and it was one of the Britons. He smiled in English and said: "Gentlemen, I can testify to this incident today, it was the gang that made the first move, they were the first to take out the firearms, and they were the ones who gathered people to come here to retaliate, I can testify that this gentleman has always been defending himself." ”

The middle-aged man on the opposite side listened to the translation of the person below, thought about it for a while, and immediately laughed and said, "Haha...... Good! Brother, I didn't misunderstand you, I didn't embarrass our Han family. Since you have been wronged, brother, then brother, I will definitely give you an explanation. ”

After he finished speaking, he turned back and shouted, "Go...... Not one remained, the ship and the goods were divided in half, half for my brother, and half for the merchants on this street. ”

As soon as his words fell, the people below responded violently, and they walked away in an instant. The middle-aged man turned around, hugged his fist at Li Shaojie, and said with a smile: "Brother, my brother was offended a lot just now, and today my brother is the east, so how about making amends." ”

Li Shaojie also arched his hand, and said with a slight smile: "I'm tired of killing people today, and my brother will visit him another day and ask my brother for advice." ”

The middle-aged man laughed and said, "Okay! Then I'll sweep the couch and wait for a big drunk with my brother. ”

After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked away, and the many pirates surrounding the street also dispersed, only the Englishman stood and didn't leave, looking at Li Shaojie with a smile.

Li Shaojie nodded at him with a smile, waved his hand, turned around and left with someone.

Fujii turned his head before leaving, gave the Englishman a gloomy look, and then slashed out again, slashing off the head of a wounded pirate soldier on the side of the road. R1152
