The Possession of My Beloved (Hidden Charm) - Chapter 170

    In this way, the previous battle plan will be overturned and repeated.

    Cui Xingzhou listened to the deductions of the soldiers several times, and always felt that it was not right. On this day, he deliberately returned to the mansion early. Taking advantage of the time before the war, he still wanted to go back to his mansion and ask the master of Lu Da.

    In addition, Miantang finally felt relieved after burying the money, but after two days, she suddenly felt a little uneasy. If the King of Huaiyang was really defeated and lost, and the Japanese returned to the North Sea, then the people would definitely be in trouble, and it would be useless even if they had money in hand and couldn’t buy food.

      Clearly, all the ants, grasshoppers, and mantises in the mountains were eaten up by them. If she hadn’t led them to surprise King Huaiyang’s camp at night and broke the blockade, they would have starved to death on the mountain.

    Thinking of this, Miantang couldn’t sit still, and hurriedly called Lu Yi, gave him silver taels so that he could buy more food, and brought Lu Zhong and other brothers to bury the food in a nearby cave Here, make a mark, this will be at ease.

    These days, she has been inquiring more or less. King Huaiyang was not well-liked in official circles, and once Beihai lost the war, he would have no backup at all.

    So you have to be foolproof when it comes to escaping.

    Just as she was scratching her scalp to plan the escape route, King Huaiyang came back.

    However, this time, he didn’t take Miantang’s favorite street food, but the model of artillery and warships used to send troops in the military camp, as well as the sand table of Koo Island.

    After fixing the sand table on the table in the study, Cui Xingzhou pulled Miantang to fight him again.

    Mian Tang looked at his sword brows with cold eyes, concentrating on strategy, and was a little ecstatic for a while.

    But when he thought about how to outflank Yangshan Laodi when he summoned his subordinates before, he should have planned and thought so handsomely, and the female mountain bandit was a little unhappy, looking at him with a shy brow. It is pleasing to the eye.

    As a result, when she faced him again, Miantang naturally showed a bit of energy, she just thought she was guarding Kou Island and saw the warships and men in the North Sea, come to destroy one by one, Come and destroy one pair.

    After eating several times, Liu Miantang proudly took a plum, and tapped Cui Xingzhou’s shoulder with her finger: “My lord, are you deliberately letting me? It’s alright. , they are all fake sand table boats, don’t be reluctant to fight…”

    “Your ammunition is already full, why are you firing again?” After Cui Xingzhou damaged two large ships, he suddenly found a loophole and pinched Miantang’s slender wrist.

      Then use it!”

    Cui Xingzhou was about to be amused by her crooked reasoning, pinched her nose and said, “The gunpowder can’t be used if it gets wet, how do you use it?”

    Speaking of this, Cui Xingzhou was suddenly silent, staring at the water surface of the sand table without saying a word.

    Liu Miantang didn’t practice any more, she just said honestly: “I lost again, I’ll kill or cut it up to the lord!”

    Cui Xingzhou did not care about dealing with the slick bandits, so he suddenly got up and prepared to return to the camp, but when he was about to go out, he reminded Miantang: “If you have nothing to do, bury some money. But hoarding it on the mountain It’s better to sell the food as soon as possible! Otherwise, the weather will be cloudy and rainy in a few days, I’m afraid that the food you hid on the mountain in a hurry will soak into buds.”

      You also have to beg me to see if I can treat you well!”

    What answered her was a hearty laugh that faded away.

    Miantang picked up and staggered from the threshold and walked in Xiao Yier, looked at his drooling mouth and said: “Your father is really not a thing!”

    When Cui Xingzhou rushed back to the camp, Li Guangcai asked King Huaiyang if he wanted to postpone the day of attacking the island.

    Cui Xingzhou is asking the local guide about the weather in recent days.

    The guide is very good at seeing clouds, and the weather is very accurate several times during the march.

    After listening to Li Guangcai’s words, Cui Xingzhou lowered his eyes and thought for a while: “No, everything is going according to the plan, besides… the soldiers have worked hard, I will send a few jars to the brothers in Xiying today. wine to soothe them.”

    Li Guangcai was stunned when he heard it, that Xiying was holding two imperial envoys and their entourage.

     Soldiers dare not get tired day and night, where can they drink? But seeing Cui Xingzhou’s meaningful eyes, Li Guangcai understood and arranged to go immediately.

    In the evening, the soldiers of the Western Battalion each handed out a pot of wine and gathered in their respective tents to drink. Jug of wine.

    The two imperial envoys were imprisoned here. They hated and feared the King of Huaiyang in their hearts. Wherever they were in the mood to drink, they gave the wine to the soldiers who took care of them.

    Several soldiers already had wine from the battalion, and they got the fine wine in the hands of the two imperial envoys, all of them were happy.

    After drinking a few jugs of wine, a soldier asked: “I don’t know what day it is today, but I actually rewarded so many wines. It would be nice if I could do this often.”

    Another soldier said: “Xu is that the training was too hard a while ago, give us some fun?”

    The leader hiccupped and said in a low voice, “I have a brother who is on duty under the battalion general, and the battalion general said that one is to reward us for our early training, and the other is to let us relax, the day after tomorrow. So that we can go to Ko Island to attack the Japanese. You know this, so don’t spread it.”

    The two commissioners heard a move in their hearts and couldn’t help but look at each other. After a while, several soldiers got drunk one after another and fell to the ground one by one.

    The two emperors sent their servants to check and test, and found that a few soldiers were really drunk, and hurried out of the camp, only to find that there were soldiers standing guard at the camp gate, and other soldiers were Sleeping soundly in the tent.

    Fortunately, they were confined to the edge of the camp, and they were not far away from the camp wall made of wooden planks. The wall, one foot deep and one foot shallow, escaped.

    One of the envoys said bitterly: “This old man has lived most of his life, and he has never been so embarrassed!”

    The other one stepped on the mud all the way and said: “He is not the only one who offends us… After a while in Qianzhen, I will have a way to contact Shi Guozhang’s people… King Huaiyang will attack the day after tomorrow. Kou Dao is gone, wouldn’t it be a pity if no one gave him “assistance”?”

    Speaking of this, the two of them laughed at the same time, and continued to drive forward… They walked faster, so as to help the Huaiyang Dynasty go faster from the gate of hell!

    He is also secretly scolding Huaiyang King as not a thing, and the general Yingsi Temple on Kou Island.

    Yingsi Temple has built its old nest for many years, and every time the Japanese looted in the North Sea for several years, they have returned with a full load. complete.

    The most important thing is the five new cannons. That is the treasure of Zhendao. Once it is shot, it will definitely be called the navy of Beihai.

    However, this baggage is the secret of Koo Island. In order to confuse the King of Huaiyang, he hid food in a cave, and deliberately did not give food to the old, weak, sick and disabled, so that they all fled. He repeatedly sent Japanese people to Beihai to buy food, just to make the King of Huaiyang feel underestimated and attack with confidence.

    But Cui Xingzhou didn’t know what he was waiting for, and there was no news for a long time.

    Until he suddenly received news from Shi Guozhang’s subordinates, the Huaiyang army finally began to rectify, and tomorrow they would attack Kou Island.

    Yingsi Temple has been planning for so long, and waiting for this moment, he hurriedly called a few capable subordinates and asked them to prepare bows and arrows and ammunition to deal with tomorrow’s war, and he followed suit. Take a tour of the island to make sure everything is safe.

    Soon, a heavy fog gradually formed on the sea. In the misty fog, a few ship shadows came towards Kou Island, looming in the fog.

      It was blown to the bottom of the sea before it was reached, and Xue was ashamed of her defeat last time.

    Eaji Temple knew that such large ships would not drive to the shallows, so as soon as they entered the range, they sank the large ships immediately, and never gave them the opportunity to put down the small ships.

    It’s just that the big ship broke down early and stopped, and the Japanese gunner had to raise the muzzle to hit the warship.

    There was a loud bang, the hillside where the artillery was located seemed to tremble, and the five artillery took turns firing. Soon, the mast of a warship in the distance fell down, and the other warships quickly separated to avoid the shells.

    As the cannonballs were fired, the sky gradually began to rain heavily. The rainwater flowed in along the muzzle and slowly collected at the bottom of the barrel. The Japanese had to shoot a few shots before lowering the muzzle to drain the accumulated rainwater. However, the repeated collection of rainwater also had a serious impact on the barrel. In the subsequent shots, the shells hit closer and closer, and the more they hit, the more they hit the sea.

    The Japanese on Kou Island cheered.
