Chapter 183

The snow was falling fiercely and splendidly.

A layer has been laid on the ground.

Xuanwu Bo Jinzhuo, leading two thousand troops, guarded the defense line behind the beach of Wangya Island.

The so-called line of defense is just a low wall made of stones and soil.

In order to capture Raging Tide City, Shen Lang took all the elite warriors away. Most of the two thousand troops around Uncle Xuanwu were recruits, and there were only less than five hundred veterans.

However, from the perspective of the scene, there are more than 4,000 people, and the remaining 2,000 people are simply miners' militia, but after putting on the armor, it looks like a regular army.

Of course, the morale of these recruits is still high.

After all, after enlisting in the army, if you eat well and dress well every day, the more money you get.

Moreover, the family has been a member of the Jin family for generations, and loyalty has been etched into the bones.

More than 4,000 people doesn't sound like much, but it looks like a huge area.

At this time, the pirate warships on the sea were getting closer and closer.

The recruits couldn't help but get nervous and felt a little breathless.

"Nervous bastard." The veteran next to him said disdainfully, then grabbed a ball of snow and stuffed it into his mouth.

"The new recruit Danzi is just useless. Looking at the big guy, he is even less courageous than Eggy." The veteran laughed while chewing on the snow.

Chewing and chewing, he felt something was wrong.

Why does this snow have a salty head?

"Fuck, that bastard pissing?" The veteran hurriedly spit out the snow in his mouth.

bah bah bah!

I said the snow is so yellowish.

Ha ha ha ha!

Suddenly, everyone laughed, and the tense atmosphere eased.

Xuanwu Bo Jinzhuo also couldn't help but smile.

"Don't be afraid, don't panic, follow orders!"

"Do you remember what I taught you before?"

Uncle Xuanwu's voice was not loud, but it was enough for everyone to hear clearly.

"Remember!" Everyone shouted.

Uncle Xuanwu said: "We have practiced many times these days, it's the same as usual."

He didn't speak loudly, and his tone was flat, but it made people feel at ease.

That's right, this battle has been rehearsed dozens or hundreds of times today.

Every recruit can go back and forth, and so is every miner's militia.

on the lookout.

The flag-bearer shouted: "The enemy is five miles away!"

"Three miles!"

"Second Mile!"

"One mile!"

…………

"The army landed on the island, killed them all, burned them all, and robbed them all!"

Following Qiu Tianwei's order, countless pirates screamed and started their crazy landing.

It is impossible for all the more than 100 pirate warships to dock at the dock, so there are still several hundred meters away from the beach. The pirates put down their small sampans and rowed towards the beach.

And some ferocious pirates didn't even need a sampan, and jumped into the sea, biting a big knife in their mouths, and paddling directly towards the beach.

It's really naughty.

This is a big winter, there is heavy snow floating in the sky, and the temperature of the sea will not exceed three or five degrees Celsius.

But these pirates did not feel cold at all, but felt their blood boiled.

gold.

There are 100,000 catties of gold on the island.

First come, first served, whoever gets the most points.

"Kill, kill, kill..."

Immediately, the entire sea boiled.

Countless pirates landed wildly.

That picture really seems like when the tide goes out, countless sea crabs use the beach.

Dense, dark, and countless.

The Tang family's private army, each wearing armor, could only land on a sampan.

"Stupid!"

"Weak chicken!"

After despising each other, they continued to charge.

Just a moment later.

Most of the pirate army rushed to the beach.

Facing Uncle Xuanwu's line of defense, these pirates had no fear and continued to charge frantically.

Five hundred meters.

Three hundred meters!

Two hundred meters.

The Jin family recruits behind the defense line trembled with trembling legs and were a little frightened.

Although it has been practiced many times, when these vicious pirates rushed up, the picture was still too shocking.

I didn't expect that 30,000 people would be so many.

Almost the entire beach is covered, it's endless.

"Shoot the arrow, shoot the arrow..."

Uncle Xuanwu gave an order.

"Swish swish swish..."

More than 2,000 soldiers and more than 2,000 miners and militiamen bent bows and arrows to projectile.

Arrows rained down.

Like a locust across the sky at a glance, and then slammed down.

"Puff puff……"

Like rain hitting bananas, countless arrows rained on the beach.

The hit rate is almost nothing.

Because it's two hundred meters away.

An archer who can shoot such a long distance is one in a hundred.

Therefore, this round of arrow rain, the casualties caused to the pirates are single digits.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"These weak chickens, archery hasn't urinated as far as Lao Tzu."

"Don't say it's not as good as Lao Tzu's ability to urinate as far as I can, not as far as Lao Tzu can shoot."

Many pirates laughed.

It has to be said that the performance of these recruits and militiamen in the Earl Xuanwu Mansion is indeed average. Most of the arrows fired by the militiamen are only a few dozen meters away.

"Rush up, kill them all, kill them all!"

"Don't kill them all, leave some beautiful ones, I want the sun!"

"I want the day too, I want the day too!"

The pirates charged and laughed wildly.

Not like fighting at all, but like looting.

"Shoot the arrow, shoot the arrow..."

Uncle Xuanwu gave an order.

The four thousand people behind him shot arrows again.

Once again the arrows rained down.

This time, it was only about 100 meters away from the pirates, and the casualties caused by the rain of 4,000 arrows finally broke through double digits.

However, these pirates are already very close.

Their grim faces and yellowed teeth can already be seen.

"Run, run, run..."

Not sure who started first.

After a loud roar, the defenders of Earl Xuanwu's mansion turned around and fled.

At first the miners' militias fled, then the recruits fled, and finally the veterans were swept away.

Uncle Xuanwu roared: "Don't run, don't run!"

"Retreat cut!"

After saying that, Xuanwu Bo Jinzhuo suddenly pulled out his sword and beheaded the two people next to him.

Suddenly, the two heads rolled off. Of course, these two are not real soldiers, but death row prisoners.

It's all acting, of course, absolutely realistic.

Even so, as if the defeat could not be stopped, the 4,000 soldiers of the Earl Xuanwu's mansion still fled wildly.

"Go to the mine, go to the mine!"

Someone shouted loudly.

Uncle Xuanwu was furious and roared unwillingly: "Retreat to the mine, retreat to the mine."

"Go protect the gold!"

The battle was about to collapse.

The soldiers of the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion were almost collapsed at the touch of a button.

Thirty thousand pirates were ecstatic.

They knew that the army of Earl Xuanwu was very weak, but they didn't expect it to be so weak.

…………

The Pirate King Qiu Tianwei frowned and asked Tang Zong, "Are the soldiers of the Earl Xuanwu's house that weak?"

Tang Zong, the eldest son of Jin Haibo Tang Lun.

"It's not that weak!" Tang Zong said: "In terms of pure combat power, the soldiers of Earl Xuanwu's mansion are stronger than us."

Qiu Tianwei said: "Then why is it collapsed at a touch? Completely vulnerable? Is there any deceit here?"

However, Chou Tianwei soon felt the power of the elites of the Earl Xuanwu Palace.

More than 4,000 recruits and militiamen retreated frantically and ran towards the big mine.

Uncle Xuanwu roared loudly: "Leave 500 people behind, break with me, and cover the main force to retreat!"

Immediately, the five hundred elites of the Jin family formed a steel line of defense, which was defended by a temporary stone wall line.

These five hundred warriors were all wearing new-style steel armor, armed with new-style swords, and armed to the teeth.

"Shoot the arrow, shoot the arrow..."

"Whoosh whoosh..."

Five hundred elite warriors shot arrows, this time it was no longer a projectile, but a direct shot.

"Puff puff puff..."

Suddenly, dozens of pirates fell.

The archery of 500 people was more ferocious than the power of the 4,000 people just now.

"Fire arrows!"

"Fire arrows!"

Moreover, the five hundred elite warriors can shoot arrows so fast that they can complete one arrow in three seconds.

In just half a minute, ten arrows were fired.

Pirates suffered extensive casualties, reaching as many as hundreds.

finally!

The first thousand pirates rushed to the front of the line of defense.

Xuanwu Bo Jinzhuo roared, "Draw your sword."

Five hundred elite warriors drew their swords neatly, and their movements were uniform.

"kill!"

"kill!"

More than a thousand pirates in the front rushed towards the five hundred Jin family warriors.

Hand in hand.

Immediately, they were fighting frantically.

The result is surprising.

Pirate Pioneers, with twice as many people, suffered a big loss in the first battle.

Because their war knives slashed on the armor of the Jin family warriors, there was only a shallow trace.

However, the swords of the warriors of the Jin family can easily split their leather armor and cut their bodies.

Even if the sword is blocked.

The pirate's sword will even break directly.

The armor and weapons of the Jin family warriors are more than a generation advanced compared to the pirate army.

The blood shot, and the severed limbs flew.

The battle situation turned violent in an instant.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

Five hundred elite warriors guard the line.

The pirate army kept coming, more and more, more and more.

In the end, more than 1,000 people, more than 2,000 people rushed up to join forces.

Because this line of defense is so narrow, it can accommodate more than 2,000 people at most.

Two thousand pirates fought against five hundred elite warriors of the Jin family.

It was still comparable.

Uncle Xuanwu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene.

On the night of killing Qiu Xiao, the performance of the family's private army was indeed very bad.

More than 3,000 people were condescending on the mountainside, and they were even rushed up by 2,000 pirates, and there were casualties.

This made Earl Jinzhuo begin to wonder if his family's warriors were not good enough?

And today's battle performance, but extremely excellent.

Of course it wasn't because the Kim family's samurai became stronger, they were still them.

These elite warriors received the most rigorous formal combat training. The samurai cooperated with each other, and the power of the general formation was brought into full play.

But that night they couldn't see, and they couldn't talk about cooperating with each other.

On the contrary, pirates often loot at night, and they are better at fighting alone, but night is more powerful for them.

And that night, a veteran with four recruits, it was even more difficult to perform.

It's daytime, plus the new armor and weapons are too awesome, and all of them are elite veterans, so they have a brilliant record.

Five hundred people fought against more than two thousand people, and they were still undefeated.

"It seems that the strategy of elite soldiers is the correct one. Too many people are useless." Uncle Xuanwu said in his heart.

Seeing this scene, Pirate King Qiu Tianwei felt relieved.

Tang Zong on the side said: "This is the strength of the warriors of the Jin family, but unfortunately there are too few such elites. Uncle Xuanwu has expanded too fast and recruited too many new soldiers. Not only is it useless in battle, but it will collapse and collapse. big deal."

Although the five hundred elites led by Uncle Xuanwu were powerful, their strength was limited.

And more and more pirates came up, and they soon surrounded them.

There was blood everywhere on the ground, and hundreds of corpses were piled up.

It's almost time.

Uncle Xuanwu shouted: "Break out, break out, retreat to the mine, defend the gold!"

Suddenly, more than 400 elites changed formations, protecting Uncle Xuanwu in the middle, forming a sharp knife formation and starting to break through.

After paying dozens of lives, Uncle Xuanwu successfully broke through and retreated towards the mine.

The encirclement of more than 3,000 pirates was broken through in less than a quarter of an hour.

At this moment, Tang Zong, the eldest son of Jin Haibo, showed a proud look.

These pirates are extremely brave and fearless, but they are too undisciplined, so they are not the opponents of the regular army at all on the frontal battlefield.

Pirate King Qiu Tianwei is also reflecting on this.

He underestimated the enemy a little bit. In the battle 20 years ago, he led 5,000 pirates to kill Count Jin Yu's 10,000-odd coalition forces. Since then, he felt that the Jin family's army was vulnerable.

Now it seems that the Jin family's army is not good at naval warfare, but is very good at land warfare.

And his own pirate army is just the opposite.

Qiu Tianwei also decided.

Once he has captured Wangya Island, he will also train his direct descendants to become regular troops.

If the Qiu family wants to rise formally, they still have to land on land.

Just like Qiu Yao'er's direct line of warriors, not for looting, not for gold, but only for fighting.

"Re-arrange, re-arrange!"

The Pirate King ordered.

Immediately, the 30,000 coalition troops formally formed a formation in the large open space, no longer rushing madly.

After a full hour.

The 30,000 coalition forces finally assembled into 30 formations.

"March, surround the mine!"

Then, the 30,000 coalition troops marched towards the big mine.

Don't be in a hurry at this time, and don't be in a hurry.

Anyway, this sea has been blocked by pirate warships, and thousands of people from the Jin family are unable to fly.

"Bang bang bang bang..."

After the formation of tens of thousands of pirates, they headed towards the big mine.

Although this is a small island, in order to facilitate the transportation of iron and salt to the wharf, the Jin family has opened up a wide road, which is four or five meters wide. Now it is convenient for the march of tens of thousands of pirates.

In just five miles, the 30,000 pirates walked for nearly half an hour.

Finally reached the big mine.

…………

Although all the pirates present had seen the big scene, they were still shocked when they saw this huge mine.

So big and so deep!

This huge pit is more than 400 meters in diameter and 30 to 40 meters deep.

There is no way.

The Jin family has been mining Wangya Island for more than two or three hundred years.

Thousands of miners have been excavating for two or three hundred years, and it is not surprising that such a huge sinkhole has been dug up.

More than 30,000 pirate coalition forces surrounded the huge mine and looked down.

There is a road that circles down and directly reaches the bottom of the pit. The stone road dug out is very fast, three or four meters long, enough for a carriage to get up and down.

At this time, Qiu Tianwei could see clearly that more than 4,000 troops led by Uncle Xuanwu were guarding the bottom of the mine.

There are not only many houses made of stone, but also many caves.

Really easy to defend.

"See the gold?"

"See the gold?"

Many pirates have visited.

No gold at all.

But this did not disappoint them, but made them even more enthusiastic.

The gold must have been hidden in the mines by them.

"I saw it, I saw it."

"Where, where?"

"I haven't seen the gold bricks, but you can see those mines."

Everyone saw it.

There are countless ore deposits under the mine, like a mountain.

It's a pity that these mines are covered with snow.

But because the 4,000 troops of Uncle Xuanwu's mansion had just stepped on it, the snow on some of the mines had been trampled.

Even if these mines are so far apart, you can see the golden color.

Qiu Tianwei has high martial arts skills and strong eyesight. He clearly saw that there were countless golden sands in this mine.

Tang Zong also saw it.

Although he didn't see the golden bricks, Qiu Tianwei was even more excited in his heart.

It really is the ancient golden vein.

How can there be so many golden sands in normal gold mines, and Tianda's rich mines do not have such a high content.

The mine's gold may have been shipped away.

But compared to the entire ancient gold vein, a mere tens of thousands of catties of gold is nothing.

How much are these minerals below?

At least tens of millions of pounds.

How much gold can be washed out?

At least tens of thousands of pounds or more, or even more.

This is not a gold mine at all, this is the ancient gold vein.

God bless my Qiu family to rise.

Tang Zong next to him was breathing hot and fast.

Really ancient gold veins.

God knows how much gold is there.

"Marquis Anger, what should we do now?" Tang Zong said, "All the defenders of Uncle Xuanwu are at the bottom of the mine. Shall we rush directly to the mine and kill them all? Take away the entire ancient gold vein. ?"

Qiu Tianwei's heart was full of strong impulses.

Go down, go down!

Kill the Kim family cleanly.

Take all the gold and take over the ancient gold veins.

but……

Looking at this huge mine, Qiu Tianwei instinctively felt dangerous.

This tiankeng looks really shocking, and it instinctively gives people the feeling of a deadly trap.

Shen Lang, this evil beast, is extremely vicious and cunning.

What if he set a shocking trap under this huge mine?

"No! Don't go down!"

Pirate King Qiu Tianwei said: "The ancient golden veins can't run, and the thousands of Uncle Xuanwu's wings are also difficult to fly. We can only besiege and not attack."

Tang Zong said, "Is this necessary?"

Pirate King Qiu Tianwei said, "What if there are traps in this mine?"

trap? What trap?

This mine is all rock, not a forest, nor a swamp. Where did the trap come from?

However, even his father Tang Lun didn't have much room to speak in front of Qiu Tianwei, let alone Tang Zong?

"Yes, everything is according to the will of the Lord of the Furious Tide!"

So, the suspicious pirate king Qiu Tianwei set up camp on the huge mine and surrounded the entire mine.

Just refused to take a step down.

Uncle Xuanwu, what if you hide under the mine?

Do you have enough food? Is fresh water enough?

I've been besieging you, starving you, and dying of thirst.

Even if there are any traps, it will make you completely blind.

Finally, I came to a urn to catch the turtle.

…………

Inside a stone house at the bottom of a huge mine.

Jin Zhong looked at the densely packed pirate camps above, and said with worry: "Master, what if Qiu Tianwei's army doesn't come down? It took us a whole few months to set up a net and a shocking trap in this mine, but if Qiu Tianwei's pirate army does not come down, what should we do? Come down, there's nothing we can do."

yes!

It's useless for you to set traps, people don't step in.

Uncle Xuanwu said indifferently: "Is this in a hurry? He will definitely step in. According to Lang'er's deployment, it will be done step by step. Lang'er's thinking about people's hearts is very terrifying."

Compared with psychological warfare, Shen Lang has never lost anyone.

Unless you are not greedy, not enmity, not hate.

Otherwise, it will definitely fall into Shen Lang's trap, it's just a matter of time.

Earl Jin Zhuo said, "At least until now, all of Qiu Tianwei's actions are completely in line with Lang'er's estimates."

………………

Qiu Yao'er had warned Shen Lang not to take another step to Raging Tide City, otherwise he would be killed.

So, Shen Lang came again.

It has been more than a month since he was ravaged by Qiu Yao'er.

He once again boarded this extremely prosperous city.

This time, Raging Tide City is still extremely prosperous, but it has become chaotic.

Because Qiu Tianwei's pirate army was gone, Qiu Yao'er assembled all the troops in the city lord's mansion, and closed the gate, ignoring everything that happened outside.

At first, the villains in Raging Tide City were cautious.

But soon they found out that no one really cares, so they started killing and looting.

The sins of the city began to be unleashed.

It's getting messier every day.

More and more spies, samurai mixed into the city and the like.

A mix of fish and dragons.

Along the way, Shen Lang saw at least three robberies and two murders.

However, the shops on both sides of the street do the same.

Because there are more than a dozen samurai guards outside each store, ordinary hooligans dare not provoke them.

Truly a city of chaos.

Escorted by hundreds of elite warriors, Shen Lang entered a courtyard.

"Order, all the warriors lurking in Raging Tide City begin to assemble!"

"Prepare to attack the Lord's Mansion of Raging Tide City!"

Note: The first update was delivered, and I still only slept for four hours. This insomnia is terrible. The work efficiency is not as good as staying up late before, so the first one is even later.

I go to lie down for a while, close my eyes even if I can't sleep, and then continue to write the second update. Pray for a monthly pass and ask for support!
