Chapter 429: The Osaka Incident
The time is approaching, the night is already very deep, Osaka Bay is calm, the sound of the waves is bursting, a group of peaceful scenes, the Eight Banners fleet moored at the port has long been silent, except for some light and dark whistles are still sticking to their posts, most of the crew has already fallen asleep, but the captain's room of the flagship is brightly lit, but there are not many people sitting inside, only three people, one person in the middle is in his early thirties, his face is like a heavy jujube, the face of the national character, thick eyebrows and long beard, not angry and arrogant, this person is the head of the fleet, Sun Mingcheng, the deputy head of the Eight Banners firm, the second son of Sun Chengwu, the head of the Eight Banners firm, and his left hand is a middle-aged man with a wide body and a fat body, who is the commercial head of the fleet, Liu Qi, and the sturdy man sitting on the right hand side is the escort of the fleet and leads the Wanshan River.
The table was full of wine and food, although they were not very rare and delicacies, but they were also very rich, and a table could not be taken down without a few tens of taels of silver, but the three people sitting around the table had no appetite at all, not to mention raising a glass and drinking, that is, they did not say a word, all sat silently and did not move, all of them looked thoughtful, and the atmosphere in the cabin was not much better, and it was uncomfortably depressing, but fortunately, the three of them were all calm people, but there was nothing abnormal.
When the child is genuine, it snows, not big, that is, some snow foam, falling with the wind, knocking out a small sound on the tile surface, the weather is very cold, the three warehouses on the right side of the wharf are patrolling the "Eight Banners Firm" escort team sentry are frozen enough, and have to retreat to the ear room of the warehouse, leaving only a few sentry on duty in the watchtower, the original strict guard has been relaxed, but the guards are not concerned, there is no side, Osaka Pier is located in the eastern suburbs of Osaka City, During the day, it is a prosperous and lively place, but at night, it is an inaccessible place, and at the middle of the night, no one will come to such a secluded place.
"Report, president, the warehouse is lax, only one person from each of the four sentry boxes, attack at this time, we will win!"
The small woods were crowded with people in black, but there was no sound, and the leader was the president of the "Wangchun Society", Fujita Jun, and as soon as the black-clothed people who went to spy on the warehouse returned to the forest, they immediately rushed to Fujita Jun's body, and the sentry led by the sentry made a report.
"Well, Yo Xi, act as planned, Sabui Saburo, take your people first!"
Hearing the report of the sentry, Fujita Jun's eyes showed a wolf-like light, and there was no nonsense, he laughed cruelly, waved his hand, and gave the order to attack.
"Hay!"
As soon as he thought of the mountains of various goods and a large amount of silver taels piled up in the three warehouses, Zuobei Saburo's eyes immediately turned red, and he answered in a low voice, gritted his teeth, waved his hand, and led more than 200 death-defying commandos out of the woods.
"Enemy attack, enemy ......"
Zuobei Saburo and others moved quickly and carefully, but at this time it was a snowy day, although there was no snow on the ground, but so many people stepped on the ground, it was impossible to be silent, even if Zuobei Saburo and others had wrapped the soles of their shoes with thick cloth, but when they rushed to the vicinity of the warehouse sentry, they still couldn't avoid being discovered by the sentry, and in an instant, the startled sentry suddenly roared, but unfortunately the enemy was too strong, and the alert sentry only shouted twice, was slashed and killed by the surging men in black.
"Stop the thief!"
"Signal for help!"
"Kill the thief!"
……
The number of the Eight Banners Merchant Escort at the warehouse is not small, even if it is the buddy of the firm, there are more than 100 people, but under the sudden attack, the position is already a big chaos, both bravely face the enemy to kill the forward, there are also those who flee in all directions shouting and screaming, it is difficult to resist the strong attack of the bandits of the "Wangchun Society", and they were killed in an instant, but fortunately, in the chaos, someone finally sent a signal for help, but saw a signal flare rising into the air, and exploded a gorgeous flower in the night sky.
"It's all here, come with me, rush to the dock, blow up the boat!"
The battle at the warehouse was already in full swing, but Fujita Jun did not send troops to reinforce him, but stood quietly in the woods, until the signal flare rose into the air, he pulled out the katana at his waist, slashed forward, broke his throat loudly, and led his troops to rush out of the woods and rush towards the dock at high speed.
"Woo, woo, woo......"
As soon as the signal flare at the warehouse exploded, all the ship guards on duty in the fleet naturally saw it, and in an instant, the alarm horn sounded suddenly, and the crew members who were immersed in sleep suddenly exploded, and it became a mess in all directions.
"Report, the warehouse has been attacked, the enemy situation is unknown, please make it clear to Mr. Sun Zhang!"
The chaos had started, but Sun Mingcheng and the others, who were sitting in the captain's room of the flagship, still sat still, and did not show a very nervous look, until a guard rushed into the cabin like a whirlwind and reported the news of the attack, and the three of them quickly exchanged glances.
"Commander Wan, immediately lead the two ships 'Lu Yuan' and 'Lu Yao' to defend against the enemy, and President Liu Zhang immediately commands the rest of the ships to immediately lift anchor, withdraw from the dock, and act!"
Sun Mingcheng didn't pay attention to the guard who came to report the news, nor did he ask how the enemy was doing, and gave the battle order straightforwardly.
"Wow!"
Wan and Liu were both insiders, and they knew exactly what was going on with the attack at the moment, and they would not have any objections from the side, so they bowed down and responded to their promises, and rushed out of the cabin with their front and rear feet, and went to arrange the relevant deployments without mentioning it.
"Kill it, blow up the ship, blow up the ship!"
Although the "Eight Banners Firm" fleet is a well-trained division, but under the sudden attack, there is still inevitably great chaos, although the order to lift the anchor and retreat has been issued, but the action is not very coordinated, some ships have raised their sails, slowly sailed out of the berth, some ships are still busy lifting anchor, the whole fleet is in a mess, at this time, Fujita Jun has led more than 300 people rushed to the dock, but saw that he roared hoarsely and gave the order.
"Blow up the ship! Blow up these Qing people! ”
"Fried, fried for Lao Tzu!"
"Throw thunder bombs and blow them up!"
……
The nearly 100 black-clothed people who followed closely behind Fujita Jun were all carrying baskets, and the baskets were full of thunder bombs made from gourds, but seeing this group of black-clothed people roaring wildly, they lit the fuse on the gourd with a lead rope, and threw the thunder bomb at the cargo ship closest to the dock.
"Boom, boom......"
More than 100 men in black threw bombs on the cargo ship, and suddenly exploded on the cargo ship, only for a moment, the huge cargo ship caught fire everywhere, and the sailors on the ship who were suddenly attacked became a mess, although there were many sailors who tried their best to extinguish the fire under the captain's order, but the fire had been completed, but how could it be extinguished, all the sailors on the ship were burned to the point of screaming, and there were countless people who escaped from the water. But those men in black refused to give up, and they were still playing on the boat and throwing thunder bombs regardless of it.
"President, this ship is almost finished, it's time to attack the next one."
The black-clothed people of the "Wangchun Society" were all rabble, and they threw bombs so much that they forgot about the rest, and they didn't notice at all that the "Eight Banners Firm" fleet except for the middle two, the rest of the ships had begun to leave the berths, but Ashikaga Yuzo realized that something was wrong, so he hurried to Fujita Jun's side and reminded him loudly.
"Baga, look for death!"
Fujita Jun has never moved, let his subordinates wait there frantically, a pair of eyes staring at the raging cargo ship, there are faint tears in the eyes flickering, but at this chaotic moment, but no one notices this, until he heard Ashikaga Yuzo's reminder, Fujita Jun suddenly became angry, the katana in his hand was horizontal, and he cut off the head of Ashikaga Yuzo without saying a word, and a warm blood instantly splashed Lao Gao, splashing all the black-clothed people around him.
"Follow me, blow up the first two ships, keep up!"
The people in black didn't expect such a change, and they were all shocked by the death of Ashikaga Yuzo, and they forgot to continue to drop the bomb for a while, and only looked at the crazy Fujita Jun in a daze, but Fujita Jun didn't have a half-sentence explanation, and yelled and gave the order.
"Hay!"
Fujita Jun rushed up like this, and the people in black didn't dare to slack off a little, and followed Fujita Jun with a roar, and rushed towards the two cargo ships docked on the dock like a tide.
"Fire!"
The two cargo ships that are still docked on the dock are the "Lu Yuan" and the "Lu Yao", the two cargo ships are dead silent, in the darkness each ship has more than 200 gun-wielding samurai standing in three columns, quietly waiting for the impact of Fujita Jun and others, until Fujita Jun and others rushed to the time when they were thirty steps away from the ship, but saw Wan Shanhe, who was standing at the height of the bow, suddenly waved his hand and gave a loud order.
"Bah, ......"
Wan Shanhe gave this order, and the samurai standing on the two boats pulled the trigger one after another, and began to cover the fire according to the standard of three shots, and in just an instant, most of the surging black-clothed people were knocked down, and the rest were so frightened that they turned around and ran away, but Fujita Jun rushed forward with a knife regardless of his heart.
"It's finally over......"
Although Fujita Jun rushed fiercely, how could his body withstand the bullets, and he was shot more than a dozen times in an instant, and fell on the dock covered in blood, but Fujita Jun did not regret his own impulse, but laughed with satisfaction, and after muttering, his eyes gradually lost their lustre......
