Chapter 1796 I have a clever plan

The sun was rising high, and the Japanese pirate army, which had retreated ten miles all the way, was stationed by the river, surrounded by a strong sense of defeat, and no longer had the spirit of being on the boat. .

Buried pots to make rice.

gurgling

The pot boiled rice and corn, without even a drop of meat, and a group of Japanese pirates gathered around the stove, waiting for the meal to warm up, dejected. This bland rice porridge made the Japanese pirates even more demoralized.

Due to the warning of the beacon fire of the Zhejiang Army, the common people in Suzhou City with a radius of about 30 miles learned of the bad news of the Japanese pirates' attack in advance. .

The common people took away all the belongings that could be taken away, and buried or hid the things that could not be taken away.

The Japanese pirates retreated here, and they also sent people to plunder nearby villages and towns, intending to rob property and livestock. Unfortunately, they went to several villages in a row, but they were all empty. Returned empty-handed.

Xu Hai, Chen Dong, and Maye, three big Japanese chieftains, were also sitting in front of a simple pot. They also cooked rice and corn in the pot. The only difference was that they also cooked three palm-sized river fish in the pot. .

These three fish were caught by the Japanese pirates by the river. The time was urgent, and the Japanese pirates only caught these three fish.

As a Japanese chieftain, they naturally entered their pot.

"Damn the little thief! Damn the Zhejiang army! There are seven thousand people! My army has lost so much!"

After Chen Dong got the statistics on the number of casualties and losses, he couldn't help cursing and furious.

"Oh, I was careless. I asked just now. Before the explosion, some people saw the traces of the ignition of the fuse, but they didn't pay attention to it, so that so many people were lost, and even Hojo died of hatred."

Ma Ye sighed, but when he mentioned Hojo Yinhen, he had a sarcastic tone.

"It's a good thing to learn a lot from a pit, and let us know that there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people beyond the people!"

Xu Hai squinted his eyes, and said slowly, his eyes looked towards the direction of Fengqiao Daying like a wounded wolf, "People don't fall twice in the same ditch, this time we lost so many people, mainly because of Zhejiang Injured by the gunpowder buried by the army. In the future, everyone will have a pair of eyes, especially when facing the Zhejiang army, check the battlefield in advance, as long as you pay attention, you will be able to eliminate the fuse and gunpowder early, and you will never repeat today’s mistakes.”

"That's right. What Brother Xu said is true." Chen Dong and Ma Ye nodded, deeply agreeing. They all thought that this time they suffered a loss of carelessness. Once they pay attention carefully, they will never detonate the Zhejiang Army again. Chances of burying gunpowder.

"It's okay. We have a large number of people. If we are allowed to make such a mistake, we still have more than 26,000 troops. The Zhejiang Army only has 2,000 soldiers and horses. We have caused at least hundreds of damage to them just now. At this moment, the Zhejiang Army There are about 1,500 soldiers available for battle; the defenders of Suzhou City seem to have nearly 10,000 people, but in fact, excluding the servants and the old, weak, sick and disabled, there are only about 4,000 soldiers who are really capable of fighting. The strength of our army is five times that of theirs. The advantage lies with me, and Suzhou City is like a fish in this pot, and it is still a thing in our pot."

Xu Hai picked up the ladle and filled a big bowl of porridge for each of Chen Dong and Ma Ye, with a river fish in each bowl, and said confidently.

"Brother Xu, even though that's the case, the loss of troops this time is not light, and the morale of the subordinates has been severely damaged. If you don't believe me, look, everyone is downcast. Since we started the incident, when have we suffered such a defeat?"

Chen Dong took the porridge bowl from Xu Hai, pointed at the dejected pirates around, and sighed.

"Yes, with such morale, it's not easy to attack the city, let alone the Zhe Army standing in the way."

Ma Ye also sighed.

Regarding the Zhejiang Army led by Zhu Ping'an, Ma Ye felt a little apprehensive, the Zhejiang Army's firearms were too powerful.

"Oh, what fear is there for the Zhejiang Army? If it weren't for this explosion, the Zhejiang Army would have been captured by us. We had already attacked the front of the Zhejiang Army at that time, and the people in the front had already fought hand-to-hand with the Zhejiang Army. In just one breath, the Zhe Army's position has been crushed by us, and we are all enjoying the feast in the Zhe Army camp now!"

Xu Hai took a bite of the fish with all his strength, chewed it with thorns, swallowed it, and said hoarsely.

"Well, that's true. If it wasn't for the fact that the Zhejiang Army didn't pay attention to martial arts morality, was cunning and deceitful, buried gunpowder in secret, and suddenly detonated it, the Zhejiang Army would have been wiped out at this moment. Zhu Ping'an is really treacherous. It doesn't make sense!"

Chen Dong nodded vigorously, feeling annoyed and regretful, and finally could only scold Zhu Pingan for being insidious and cunning.

"Fight it! Since we almost crushed the Zhejiang army just now, how about we storm the Zhejiang army's position again after dinner?! Last time we were able to attack the Zhejiang army in front of the formation, and this time we will be able to. Let's have a meal this time." The leader of the moat is wise enough to check the battlefield carefully, and let him check out all the gunpowder and lead wires, and don’t give Zhu Ping’an’s son another chance to bury the gunpowder and detonate it.

Ma Ye took a sip of the soup, grinned at the scalding, angrily threw the porridge bowl on the ground, and suggested to Xu Hai and Chen Dong.

"Brother Ma, that's a good suggestion. We have suffered such a big loss. The Zhejiang army must have never thought that we would go back so soon. This return of the carbine will surely catch him by surprise, and we will take revenge for the loss of soldiers and generals! Wait for the breakthrough! The Zhejiang army captured Zhu Ping'an alive, and I want him to suffer the humiliation of his crotch!"

After hearing this, Chen Dong's eyes couldn't help but brighten up. He agreed with Ma Ye's proposal very much, and couldn't wait to seek revenge from Zhu Pingan.

Immediately, Ma Ye and Chen Dong looked at Xu Hai, waiting for Xu Hai's reaction.

In their Japanese pirate alliance, Xu Hai still has a relatively large voice. Xu Hai has the largest number of Japanese pirates and strong combat effectiveness. Moreover, Xu Hai is known for his resourcefulness and is the brain of the alliance.

If you want to return to the carbine and attack the Zhe Army's position again, you must get Xu Hai's approval before you can do it.

Under the expectant eyes of the two, Xu Hai shook his head slightly.

This immediately disappointed Chen Dong and Ma Ye. The two looked at Xu Hai dissatisfied, and asked, "Why not? Brother Xu is afraid of the Zhe Army? Just now Brother Xu said, 'What is there to fear about the Zhe Army', this Isn't it too fast to slap your face?"

"It's not that I'm afraid of the Zhejiang Army, but that it's inappropriate to attack the Zhejiang Army now. That's right, if we regroup and kill him with a carbine, we will surely break through the Zhejiang Army's position and unscrew Zhu Ping'an's dog's head, but have you ever thought about it? It is already bright, and we have nowhere to hide. As soon as our side kills the carbine, the Zhejiang army will know that the Zhejiang army has just won and its morale is high. Thousands of people will be lost. Now the morale of our army has been seriously damaged, and if they take such a big loss to attack the Zhejiang army, it may change."

Xu Hai heard the words, sneered, and said lightly.

"Then what should we do? If we can't retreat? Why don't we become the laughing stock of everyone, how can we hold our heads up in front of our peers?" Chen Dong and Ma Ye dissatisfied.

"How can we retreat before the city of Suzhou falls!" Xu Hai shook his head vigorously.

"You don't attack, you don't retreat. Are you here to play in the mountains?" Ma Ye sneered.

"I have my own plan to destroy the city." Xu Hai smiled slightly.
