Chapter 39 The End of Pirates

When Li Yuanhong saw that the other party had escaped, he did not pursue him. Now that he had seized the pier, he had a foothold. He was not familiar with the situation in the city and advancing rashly might cause great losses. Moreover, shots were fired here and a sneak attack had already begun. Declared failure, so the next step can only be to move slowly and steadily.

Li Yuanhong quickly arranged for people to defend the pier, with four ships as backup. He only needed to prevent enemy sneak attacks. At the same time, Li Yuanhong set up early warning devices at various key points and waited for dawn to attack the city.

At the same time, the city was in chaos. The sound of gunfire woke everyone up, especially Naoto Tanaka. Zhengxiang was sleeping with his arms around the branches. Suddenly, the sound of gunfire made him jump up and get dressed in a hurry. He got out of bed and shouted to the door as he walked: "Come here, what happened outside?"

A guard ran in from outside the door: "Report to Mr. Tanaka, we don't know yet. We only know that something happened at the dock." After saying that, the guard's eyes were gleaming, and he secretly glanced at the bed. At this time, The branch was sitting half-naked on the bed.

"Baga, why don't you hurry up and figure things out!" Tanaka said angrily.

"Yes!" The guard dared not wait any longer. Tanaka's temper was notoriously cruel. If he was not careful, he might be in trouble.

Tanaka did not wait, but called out: "Come here, quickly gather the team and go to the reinforcement dock for me."

Someone agreed outside the door, and then there was the sound of noisy footsteps. Tanaka opened the door and strode outside.

Tanaka and his troops hurried towards the pier, but before going far, they encountered soldiers who had withdrawn from the pier. Tanaka quickly grabbed a soldier and asked, "What happened at the pier!"

"Reporting to your Excellency, the dock was attacked!"

"What? Was attacked? Who did it?"

"I don't know! It's too dark to see what the other party looks like, but the other party is very strange. They use cold weapons and no guns."

"Baga, you were attacked by a group of civilians with sticks! And you were beaten so badly. It's really embarrassing for us Japanese samurai."

"That's not the case, Mr. Tanaka, we were attacked suddenly, and the other party had a mysterious long-range attack weapon. That thing can kill people invisible within fifty meters. Moreover, they seized the warship, and we were all killed by the warship's artillery. Call back!"

"Baga! Baga!" Tanaka became furious upon hearing this. He cursed and slapped the soldier in front of him so hard that his face turned into a pig's head.

When the soldiers behind saw him, they were all as silent as silkworms, not daring to speak out, for fear that Tanaka would take out his anger on themselves.

After fanning for a while, Tanaka's anger subsided a little, and then he pushed the soldier in his hand back. The soldier was stunned by the slap and fell directly to the ground without getting up.

"You bunch of losers actually lost my general's warship. You really should be allowed to commit seppuku."

None of the soldiers behind him answered, waiting for Tanaka's next words.

Tanaka saw that these people were still very well-behaved, so he didn't say anything. After all, he escaped from the main island of Japan and brought out not many people. There were only more than 10,000 people in four ships, most of whom were civilians. Later, hundreds of people died in the battle for this city. Now, he only has two or three thousand men who can fight, and the others have been turned into slaves and playthings by him. He doesn't want to give up his fighting power now. weakened.

"You go back with me now and take the dock back to me to prove that you are the best warriors in Japan."

"Yes, Mr. Tanaka!" These people shouted, but in fact they were not very confident. After all, the opponent had warships in their hands, which were completely beyond the capabilities of their guns.

Tanaka also knows this situation, but he must bite the bullet. Without the warship, he will take over, right? If he can't find a way to recapture the warship, he will probably be betrayed by his gang. This is the culture of pirates. A pirate leader who loses his command will be killed by capable pirates, and everything he owns will become the assets of the new leader. Tanaka always thought that this sneak attack was carried out by other pirates, because from the beginning to the end, the other party never took the initiative to open fire. This was very similar to several other pirate groups that he had encountered before that had escaped from Japan.

Tanaka led the team and quickly approached the pier. The pier was quiet, as if there was no one at all. Since the sky was slightly bright at this time, Tanaka could see that the gate of the pier had been blown down, leaving it undefended. He fell to the ground, and inside the gate, there were no defenses such as sandbags, it was just dark and open.

Although Tian Zhong concluded that the other party was a pirate group composed of civilians with little military qualities, he did not dare to be careless. After all, there were people on the other side who knew how to fire cannons, which would be very troublesome.

Tanaka ran to the building closest to the pier, raised his binoculars and looked inside the pier. He saw that the pier was clean and there was no one in sight, while his warship was parked steadily on the pier. On the pier, again There were no large ships (the two icebergs were ignored by him), which further confirmed that other pirates were competing with him for territory. Otherwise, how could the other pirates be so careless and undefended?

Tanaka called some of his leaders and said: "You two will attack from the main entrance in a moment. Be careful not to rush in. The other side has artillery. You will be at a disadvantage in the open area. So as soon as you enter the door, quickly attack the people on both sides of the pier." March into the warehouse area, and after occupying it, organize firepower to blockade the dock area."

"It's adults!" the two leaders agreed.

"The two of you will lead a group of people and move along the pier wall towards the seaside. When the main gate is opened, you quickly approach the warship from the sea. While the other party's attention is at the gate, quickly board the ship and seize it from me. return."

"It's my lord!" The two men nodded.

"Okay, let's start taking action. Stay in touch and listen to my orders at any time!" After Tanaka finished speaking, he waved his hand and asked the people below to start taking action.

Several subordinates took their respective teams into action. Everything went smoothly at first. The front team quickly broke through the gate and began to move towards the warehouse area. The other team also quickly arrived at the seaside and headed along the coast. Two warships approached.

Just when the group of frontal troops approached the warehouse, an accident happened. Bows and arrows flew from nowhere and directly shot through the leader. Following this bow and arrow, many crossbow arrows flew out from the warehouse. Those who were in the open space were Many pirates were shot dead on the spot.

"Lie down and shoot, get down quickly!" The surviving leader quickly went to lie down, and then shouted to his men.

Then these men hurriedly climbed down, and then frantically poured the bullets from their guns towards the warehouse. Most of the bullets hit the cement wall of the warehouse, making a "pop" sound. After the other party fired the crossbow, they returned to the warehouse and hid. These bullets did not hit the other party at all.

As the fierce gunshots rang out, the bullets in the hands of these pirates were quickly emptied, and they made the sound of firing pins. "Baga, hurry up and change the magazine!" the little leader hurriedly ordered.

However, at this moment, another bow and arrow flew out of nowhere and hit the little leader in the back of the head, nailing him directly to the ground. As soon as the two leaders were dead, the remaining pirates immediately stood up and turned around and ran back. However, at this moment, there was another burst of arrows behind them. Many pirates were shot directly through the back of the head and fell to the ground dead. There are still many people who are lucky and have not been shot in the vital parts, but they are in greater trouble if they lose the lottery. These injured pirates are shouting in pain and hoarse at the top of their lungs, which only makes the surrounding pirates even more distracted and run away. Faster.

Tanaka didn't care about the defeat on the front. Originally, these people on the front were cannon fodder, just to attract the opponent's attention. The main thing is the side attack. As long as the side attack is successful and control of the warship is regained, it doesn't matter how many people die.

However, the reality is cruel. Those on the side took advantage of the raging battle to sneak close to the warship. However, when they emerged from the cold water and approached the warship, many crossbow arrows suddenly shot down from above, hitting those who had just been attacked. The emerging pirate shot back into the sea, and the sea surface was suddenly dyed red.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the two leaders quickly ordered a retreat. However, they could not increase their speed when retreating in the sea. Moreover, the cold water made their hands and feet stiff, which made them unable to swim fast. By the time they escaped from the range of the bow and arrow, two hundred There were less than fifty people left in the multi-person team.

The attack from both directions failed miserably. Tanaka was so angry that he cursed and almost threw the telescope in his hand. Fortunately, the telescope was hung around his neck, which prevented him from throwing it.

Just as Tanaka was furious, the soldiers around him suddenly screamed, and his follower was hit in the shoulder by a crossbow. It turned out that the follower had just stamped his feet due to the cold, and accidentally moved his body a small step to the right, which happened to be a small step. A crossbow arrow flew in. This crossbow arrow was originally meant to shoot at Tanaka. Since Tanaka was short and fat, the soldier was hit by an arrow in his shoulder and became a shield.

As the guard screamed, more crossbow arrows were fired from all directions. When Tanaka saw this, he rolled on the spot. His round figure made him very flexible when rolling on the ground. He easily dodged the crossbow arrows fired by him, but his men were not so lucky. Many were shot into hedgehogs.

Tanaka dodged the crossbow attack, was in shock, and ran towards the corridor. Then he quickly took out his walkie-talkie and shouted: "Retreat, retreat quickly!" At this time, he already understood that he was ambushed.

He ran downstairs quickly. At this time, he regretted a little. Why did he climb upstairs when he had nothing to do? When he ran downstairs from exhaustion, he didn't know if he still had the strength to escape.

After finally running downstairs, Tanaka felt that his legs were a little weak. Ever since he occupied this city, he has been king and domineering. He only knows how to exercise on women's bellies. But now he realizes how harmful this kind of exercise is to the ability to escape.

After greeting his men, Tanaka ran hard towards his home base in the city with heavy steps. However, bows and arrows were shot down from the buildings on both sides from time to time. Although his men kept shooting wildly at the buildings on both sides, But that had no effect. Most of these bullets hit the wall, and some shot into the sky. None of them hit the archer upstairs.

Just as their attention was focused on the stairs upstairs, suddenly many soldiers holding shields and knives rushed out from the corridors on both sides. These people quickly rushed into the crowd, swung the steel knives in their hands and slashed at them. These pirates were completely unprepared. Close combat was not their strong point at all. They were chopped down one after another. Some pirates even raised their rifles to resist the steel knife, but the rifles could not withstand the level 10 steel knife. The steel knife directly split the rifle in two. Half the time, the person behind the rifle also died with the rifle.

The battle didn't last long. In less than a quarter of an hour, all these pirates who dominated the sea were lying dead on the street. The chubby Tanaka was shot directly through the head by a bow and arrow, and he died!
