Chapter 1113 The Japanese pirates retired?
Under Zhu Ping'an's reminder and demonstration, many government servants and soldiers also burned the ropes with torches. Except for a few ropes that were soaked in urine and river water by Japanese pirates in advance, most of the flying claw ropes were burned. Burned out.
The Japanese pirates did not make wall-climbing ladders in advance, and most of the climbing tools such as flying claw ropes were burned out. The few ropes that were soaked in urine and could not be burned were also focused on by the defenders. , the Japanese pirates screamed and fell to the bottom of the city.
After struggling to eliminate the Japanese pirates on the city wall, Jingnan County has defended the first wave of Japanese pirate attacks.
"The Japanese pirates are back!"
"The pirates are gone!"
"We kept it, we kept it down!"
After the Japanese pirates retreated, the officials and soldiers on the city wall cheered and celebrated the victory happily.
"Did you survive?! The Japanese pirates retreated?!"
"Really?!"
"Great."
The trembling and desperate people in the city heard that the Japanese pirates had retreated, and opened their mouths in surprise. They were overjoyed, wept with joy, and ran and cheered happily. Jingnan County was like a sea of cheers.
Amidst a burst of cheers, Zhu Pingan stood on the city wall with a relaxed expression, but an extremely heavy heart.
Zhu Ping'an's eyes are deep.
Although the county seat was defended with difficulty, the situation is not optimistic at all. Because, firstly, this is only the first wave of attacks by the Japanese pirates, and the Japanese pirates will definitely attack the city again after repairing; Twenty-nine people were injured, a total of 61 people were lost, and there were only 39 yamen servants and soldiers remaining on the city wall. Three years later, the Japanese pirates are still outnumbered. Although the Japanese pirates have lost more, more than a hundred people, this loss is only a drop in the bucket for the Japanese pirates, and they still have 3,000 people. many people.
Zhu Ping'an knew very well that the Japanese pirates retreated because the simple climbing equipment such as flying claws and ropes were destroyed. They needed time to cut down trees to make ladders. When the ladders were completed, the Japanese pirates attacked again.
There are thirty-nine defenders on the city, and more than three thousand Japanese pirates below the city.
Next.
How to defend this city? !
Compared with the ferocity of the Japanese pirates and the disparity in the number of the enemy and the enemy, I am afraid that in the next wave of attacks, as long as the Japanese pirates attack the city wall, the city wall can be declared lost. If the city wall falls, Jingnan County will also fall.
Difficult.
Zhu Ping'an looked at the retreating Japanese pirates, and couldn't feel at ease.
"Young master, drink a bowl of water."
Liu Dadao stepped forward with a helmet under his elbow, a bowl of water in his hand, and handed it to Zhu Pingan.
"Da Dao, thank you. Thanks to you today, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."
Zhu Pingan took the bowl, smiled and patted Liu Dadao on the shoulder, thanking him sincerely.
Really, on the city wall today, thanks to Liu Dadao, Liu Daqiang, and Liu Dahammer, the government servants and soldiers on the city wall are no match for the Japanese pirates at all. One-on-one easily kills government officials and soldiers, with one enemy, two enemies and three, they will not lose the wind, and they can fight back. Only Liu Dadao and Liu Daqiang are highly skilled, and their personal force value surpasses that of Japanese pirates. Daqiang and the others were on the city wall for emergency treatment, killing all directions, and the city wall had long since fallen. Moreover, Zhu Pingan is a frail scholar whose physical fitness is much worse than that of government servants and soldiers. The reason why he is still standing here intact is also because of the close protection of Liu Dadao and Liu Daqiang. Liu Daqiang and the others were protecting Zhu Pingan. Even if Zhu Pingan had nine lives, they were all sent to heaven by Japanese pirates on the city wall.
"Young master, why are you being polite to us? If it weren't for you, we would have died long ago. Now that we are following you, we have become fast arresters, and we all follow the emperor's rations. This is a great thing for the glory of our ancestors. Besides, you, a civil servant, will not shy away from the knife. Arrow, regardless of the danger, kill the Japanese with a knife, we martial arts practitioners, killing the enemy is our duty." Liu Dadao touched the back of his head with a simple and honest smile, and shook his head.
"Dao Dao, are you injured?"
Zhu Ping'an noticed that Liu Dadao raised his arm and touched the back of his head, and there was a lot of blood on the clothes on his waist, so he couldn't help asking anxiously.
"No, these are the blood of Japanese pirates."
Liu Dadao shook his head and explained, in order to reassure Zhu Pingan, Liu Dadao lifted his clothes to show Zhu Pingan.
Zhu Ping'an felt relieved when he saw that Liu Dadao was not injured.
"Look, the Japanese pirates retreated, but they didn't retreat. The Japanese pirates set up camp a mile outside the city."
A cheering yamen servant on the city wall suddenly noticed that the Japanese pirates retreating outside the city did not retreat, but set up camp a mile outside the city. His forehead was dripping with cold sweat and he exclaimed.
His words attracted everyone's attention, and everyone looked outside the city.
"Really, shit, the Japanese pirates really haven't retreated, the Japanese pirates have set up camp under the city, is this going to attack the city again?!"
"The Japanese pirates didn't retreat?!"
"The Japanese pirates haven't left! The Japanese pirates haven't left!"
When everyone saw that the Japanese pirates had indeed camped for a mile under the city, and they had no intention of retreating, they couldn't help but panic and sweat profusely.
"Hurry up, some pirates are cutting down trees, dragging the trunks to the camp, what are they cutting down trees for?!"
"Ladder?! Could it be that Japanese pirates cut down trees to build siege ladders?!"
"That's right, you see, they put the trunks side by side, and there are crossbars, siege ladders! The Japanese pirates are really building siege ladders!"
"The Japanese pirates are building siege ladders. What should I do? The Japanese pirates must be building siege ladders because they are determined to attack the city."
"With the siege ladder, it will be much easier for the Japanese pirates to climb the city wall. There are so many vicious Japanese pirates, and there are still two or three thousand people left. We only have more than 30 people left. If the Japanese pirates attack the city again, how can they defend the city?" what."
"How can you keep it?"
"Hey, there are so few people on the city wall that the Japanese pirates can't fit their teeth. The Japanese pirates can break through the county with a single charge. God, please, what to do, what to do, we are dead, we are dead."
Then, when the sharp-eyed people saw the Japanese pirates cutting down trees to make siege ladders, they couldn't help becoming more panicked and screaming in despair.
Soon, people in the city and the city knew that the Japanese pirates were cutting down trees to make siege ladders, and the next wave of siege was brewing. Everyone knows that there are only more than 30 yamen servants and soldiers guarding the city, and there are two or three thousand Japanese pirates. The Japanese pirates are also fierce and skilled in martial arts. After the Japanese pirates have a siege ladder, how can the county be able to defend it? .
The county seat cannot be defended!
The county seat cannot be defended!
Such remarks filled Jingnan County.
For a while, an atmosphere of despair swept Jingnan County again, and people cried in despair.
