History's Strongest Son-In-Law Living With The In-Laws - Chapter 183
Chapter 183: Fierce battle on moon Cliff Island!
Translator: 549690339
The snow was falling heavily.
The ground was already covered with a layer.
!!
The Earl of Black Tortoise, Jin Zhuo, led two thousand troops to guard the defense line behind the beach of watch Cliff Island.
the so-called line of defense was just a short wall built with stones and mud.
In order to take over raging tide city, Shen lang had brought all the elite warriors with him. Most of the 2000 soldiers beside uncle Black Tortoise were new soldiers, and there were less than 500 veterans.
However, from the looks of it, there were more than 4000 people. The other 2000 people were simply mining militia, but after wearing armor, they looked like regular soldiers.
Of course, the morale of these new recruits was still high.
After all, after joining the army, the better one ate and dressed, the more money one would receive.
Moreover, the Jin family had been the people of the Jin family for generations, and their loyalty had been engraved in their bones.
Four thousand people didn’t sound like a lot, but it looked like a dense crowd.
At this moment, the pirate warships on the sea were getting closer and closer.
These new soldiers couldn’t help but become nervous, feeling a little breathless.
“Nervous my ass.” The veteran next to him said disdainfully, then grabbed a ball of snow and stuffed it into his mouth.
new recruits are so useless. They look big, but they have no courage. The veteran mocked as he chewed on the snow.
As he chewed, he felt that something was wrong.
Why was the snow salty?
“Pei Pei Pei!”
I was wondering why the snow was so yellow.
Hahahaha!
Everyone laughed and the tense atmosphere was relieved.
Even the Earl of Black Tortoise, Jin Zhuo, could not help but smile.
“Don’t be afraid, don’t panic, listen to my orders!”
“Do you still remember what I taught you before?”
Uncle Black Tortoise’s voice was not loud, but it was enough for everyone to hear him clearly.
“I remember!” Everyone shouted.
Uncle Black Tortoise said,”we’ve already rehearsed it many times over the past few days. It’s the same as usual.”
He didn’t make any bold or Grand remarks, and his tone was calm, but this made people feel at ease.
That’s right, today’s battle had already been rehearsed dozens of times.
Every recruit could recite it backwards, and every miner militia could do it even more.
On the observation tower.
“The enemy is five miles away!” The flag bearer shouted.
“Three li!”
“Two li!”
“One li!”
…………
“The Army will land on the island, kill, burn, and Rob!”
Following Qiu Tianwei’s order, countless pirates started to land frantically.
It was impossible for all of the more than one hundred pirate warships to dock at the dock, so the Pirates put down their dinghies and paddled wildly towards the beach when they were still a few hundred meters away from the beach.
Some fierce Pirates didn’t even need to use a sampan and jumped into the sea directly. With big knives in their mouths, they paddled directly towards the beach.
It was really awesome.
It was the middle of winter, and there was snow falling from the sky. The temperature of the sea water would not exceed three to five degrees Celsius.
However, these Pirates did not feel cold at all. Instead, they felt their blood boiling.
Gold.
There were a hundred thousand Jin of gold on the island.
First come, first served, whoever got it would get more points.
“Kill, kill, kill bi an!”
Immediately, the entire sea surface boiled.
Countless pirates went ashore in a frenzy.
That scene was really like when the tide was low, countless crabs were on the beach.
They were densely packed and black in color, uncountable.
Whereas the Tang clan’s private army, every one of them was wearing armor and could only row a sampan to land.
“Idiot!”
“Weak chicken!”
They looked at each other in disdain and continued to charge.
After a short while.
Most of the Pirates had rushed to the beach.
Facing uncle Black Tortoise’s line of defense, the Pirates were fearless and continued to charge forward.
Five hundred meters.
Three hundred meters!
Two hundred meters.
The legs of the new recruits of the Jin family behind the defense line were trembling. They were somewhat frightened.
Although they had rehearsed it many times, the scene of these fiendish Pirates charging forward was still too shocking.
He didn’t expect that there would be so many people.
It almost covered the entire beach, and it was boundless.
“Release the arrows, release the arrows!”
Uncle Black Tortoise gave the order.
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Two thousand soldiers and two thousand miners drew their bows and arrows, throwing them.
The arrows fell like rain.
Like a Locust, it swept across the sky and then smashed down.
“Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!”
Like raindrops hitting banana leaves, the countless arrows pierced the sand.
The hit rate was almost zero.
that was because they were two hundred meters apart.
An Archer who could shoot from such a long distance was one in a hundred.
As a result, the number of casualties caused by this round of arrows was in the single digits.
“Hahahaha!”
“This group of weaklings, their arrows can’t even reach as far as my saliva.”
The Pirates all laughed.
It had to be said that the performance of the new recruits and the militiamen from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was really average. Most of the arrows shot by the militiamen were only a few dozen meters long.
“Charge! Kill them all! Kill them all!”
“Don’t kill all of them, leave some of them with good looks!”
The Pirates laughed wildly as they charged.
It didn’t look like they were fighting at all, but more like they were plundering.
“Release the arrows, release the arrows!”
Uncle Black Tortoise gave the order.
The 4,000 men behind him fired their arrows again.
Once again, arrows rained down.
Now, they were only about a hundred meters away from the Pirates, and the casualties caused by the four thousand arrows finally broke through the double digits.
However, the Pirates were already very close.
They could already see their ferocious faces and yellow teeth.
“Run! Run! Run!”
He didn’t know who started it.
After a loud roar, the guards of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu turned around and ran.
At first, it was the mining militia that fled, then the recruits fled, and finally the Veterans were also taken away.
“Don’t run! Don’t run!” Uncle Black Tortoise roared.
“Retreat slash!”
With that, count Black Tortoise Jin Zhuo pulled out his saber and slashed at the two people beside him.
Immediately, two heads rolled to the ground. Of course, these two were not real soldiers, but prisoners on death row.
This was all an act, so of course, it had to be absolutely realistic.
Even so, it seemed like they could not stop the defeat. The 4000 soldiers of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu continued to flee.
“Go to the mine, go to the mine!”
Someone shouted.
Uncle Black Tortoise was furious and roared with unwillingness, ” “Retreat to the mine, retreat to the mine.”
“Go and protect the gold!”
The battle was on the verge of collapse.
The soldiers of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu almost collapsed at the first touch.
The thirty thousand Pirates were overjoyed.
They knew that the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s Army was weak, but they did not expect it to be this weak.
…………
The Pirate King Qiu Tianwei furrowed his brows and asked Tang Zong, Are the soldiers of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu that weak? ”
Tang Zong was the eldest son of Tang Lun, the count of Jin hai.
“Not that weak!” “In terms of combat power, the soldiers of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu are stronger than us,” Tang Zong replied.
“Then why did it collapse at the first touch?” Chou Tianwei asked. Completely vulnerable? Is there a trap?”
However, Qiu Tianwei soon felt the power of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
More than four thousand new recruits and militiamen retreated frantically, running towards the big mine.
retreat! uncle Black Tortoise suddenly shouted, ” leave 500 men behind and cover the retreat of the main force!
Immediately, the 500 elite soldiers of the Jin clan formed a line of steel defense, using the temporarily built stone wall as a defense line.
These 500 Warriors were all wearing new steel armor and holding new sabers. They were armed to the teeth.
“Release the arrows, release the arrows!”
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
The 500 elite warriors shot their arrows. This time, they did not throw their arrows, but shot them straight.
“Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!”
Instantly, dozens of Pirates fell.
The arrows shot by five hundred people were even more powerful than the arrows shot by four thousand people.
“Release the arrows!”
“Release the arrows!”
Moreover, the shooting speed of these 500 elite warriors was extremely fast, and they could complete an arrow in three seconds.
In just half a minute, he had shot out ten arrows.
The Pirates suffered a large number of casualties, reaching hundreds.
Finally!
Thousands of Pirates at the front rushed to the front of the defense line.
“Draw your blade!” Jin Zhuo shouted.
The five hundred elite warriors drew their swords in unison.
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
More than a thousand Pirates in the front pounced toward the five hundred Jin family Warriors.
The two weapons clashed.
Instantly, they started to fight each other.
The result was shocking.
The pirate Vanguard, which had twice the number of people, suffered a great loss in the first battle.
This was because their sabers only left shallow marks on the armor of the Jin family Warriors.
However, the swords of the Warriors of the Jin family could easily cut through their leather armor and cut open their bodies.
Even if he used his saber to block.
The pirate’s blade would even break.
The armor and weapons of the Jin family Warriors were more than one generation more advanced than the pirate Army.
Blood spurted out and broken limbs flew.
The battle situation instantly became tragic.
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
Five hundred elite warriors were guarding the defense line.
The pirate Army continued to surge in, more and more.
Out of the last thousand or so people, two thousand or so people rushed up to join the melee.
This was because the line of defense was so narrow that it could only accommodate about two thousand people at most.
Two thousand Pirates against five hundred elite warriors of the Jin family.
They were still equally matched.
when uncle black tortoise saw this, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
The performance of the clan’s private army was indeed very bad on the night they killed Chou Xiao.
More than 3000 people had been looking down from the mountainside, but 2000 Pirates had still managed to rush up, and there had even been casualties.
This made Earl Jin Zhuo start to doubt if his family’s Warriors were no longer capable.
And his performance in today’s battle was extremely outstanding.
Of course, it was not because the Warriors of the Jin clan had become stronger. They were still themselves.
These elite warriors had received the harshest formal combat training. The Warriors cooperated with each other to maximize the power of the battle formation.
But that night, they couldn’t even see, so they couldn’t cooperate.
On the other hand, Pirates often pillaged at night and were more adept at fighting alone. The night was more advantageous to them.
And that night, a veteran with four new recruits was even more difficult to perform.
It was daytime now, and the new armor and weapons were too awesome. Moreover, they were all elite veterans, so their battle records were brilliant.
Five hundred people against more than two thousand people, and they were still undefeated.
it seems like the elite troop strategy is the right one. It’s useless to have more people. Thought uncle Black Tortoise.
When the Pirate King Qiu Tianwei saw this, he immediately felt relieved.
“This is the true strength of the Jin clan’s Warriors. It’s a pity that there are too few of such elites.” Tang Zong, who was standing at the side, said. Uncle Black Tortoise has expanded too quickly and recruited too many new soldiers. Not only will they be useless in battle, but they will also collapse and ruin our plans.”
Although the 500 elite soldiers led by uncle Black Tortoise were powerful, their strength was limited.
More and more Pirates swarmed up, and they were soon surrounded.
The ground was covered in blood, and hundreds of corpses were piled up.
It was almost time.
break out! Break out! Retreat to the mine! Protect the gold! uncle Black Tortoise shouted.
Instantly, the 400 elites changed their formation and protected uncle Black Tortoise in the middle. They formed a sharp knife formation and started to break out of the encirclement.
After paying the price of dozens of lives, uncle Black Tortoise successfully broke out of the encirclement and retreated towards the mine.
The encirclement of more than 3000 Pirates was broken through in less than 15 minutes.
At this time, the eldest son of the count of Jinhai, Tang Zong, revealed a proud look.
These Pirates were extremely brave and fearless, but they were too undisciplined, so they were no match for the regular army on the battlefield.
The Pirate King Qiu Tianwei was also reflecting.
He had underestimated the enemy. In the battle 20 years ago, he had led 5000 Pirates to annihilate the Earl of golden universe’s 10000-strong Allied army. From then on, he had felt that the Jin family’s Army was vulnerable.
Now it seemed that the Jin family’s Army was not good at fighting on the sea, but was very good at fighting on land.
His pirate Army was the exact opposite.
Qiu Tianwei had also made his decision.
The moment he took down gaze Cliff Island, he would train his subordinates to become a regular army.
If the Chou clan wanted to rise up officially, they still had to go on land.
Just like the Warriors of Chou Yao ‘er’s lineage, they did not live for pillage or gold, but only for battle.
“Get into formation again, get into formation again!”
The Pirate King ordered.
Immediately, the 30000-strong Alliance Army formed up in the air and no longer charged forward in a chaotic manner.
After two hours.
The thirty thousand Alliance Army finally formed thirty formations.
“Advance and surround the mine!”
Then, the 30000-strong Alliance Army marched towards the mine.
At this time, he couldn’t and didn’t need to be anxious.
In any case, the pirate ships had already sealed off this area of the sea, and the thousands of Jin clan members would not be able to escape even if they had wings.
Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang “, countless footsteps struck the ground.
After the tens of thousands of Pirates got into formation, they set off for the big mine.
Although it was a small island, the Jin family had opened up a wide road that was four to five meters wide to facilitate the transportation of the iron and salt to the dock. Now, it was convenient for the tens of thousands of Pirates to March.
The short five li journey took the thirty thousand Pirates nearly an hour.
They finally reached the big mine.
…………
Although all the Pirates present had seen big scenes before, they were still shocked to see this huge mine pit.
It was actually so big and so deep!
This huge open-pit had a diameter of more than four hundred meters, a width of nearly one li, and a depth of more than forty meters. It could almost fit a small city.
He had no choice.
The Jin family had been mining on gazing Cliff Island for more than two or three hundred years.
Thousands of miners had been digging for a long time, a full 200 to 300 years, so it was not strange to dig out such a huge pit. Some of the open-pit mines on earth with a history of hundreds of years were much bigger than this.
More than 30000 Pirates surrounded the huge open-air mine and looked down.
There was a large path that spiraled down to the bottom of the pit. This stone path was very fast and was about three to four meters long, enough for a carriage to go up and down.
At this moment, Qiu Tianwei could clearly see that uncle Xuanwu was leading over four thousand troops to guard the bottom of the mine.
Not only were there many stone houses, but there were also many caves.
It was indeed easy to defend and hard to attack.
“Do you see the gold?”
“Do you see the gold?”
Many Pirates came to visit.
There was no gold at all.
However, this didn’t disappoint them. Instead, it made them even more excited.
They must have hidden the gold in the mine.
“I see it, I see it.”
“Where, where?”
I don’t see any gold bricks, but look at the ore soil.
Everyone saw it.
At the bottom of the mine pit was a mountain of mine soil.
It was a pity that the mine soil was covered by snow.
However, because the four thousand troops of the residence of the Earl of Xuanwu had just stepped on the mine, some of the snow on the mine had been removed.
Even from so far away, the Golden color of the ore could be seen.
Qiu Tianwei was highly skilled in martial arts and had good eyesight. He could clearly see that there was a lot of golden sand in the mine.
Tang Zong also saw it.
Although he didn’t see any gold bricks, Qiu Tianwei was even more excited.
It was indeed an ancient gold vein.
How could a normal gold mine have so much gold? even the most rich mine in the world would not have such a high content.
The gold in the mine might have been transported away.
However, compared to the entire ancient gold vein, a few tens of thousands of Jin of gold was nothing.
How much of this ore was there?
At least tens of millions of Jin.
How much gold could be washed out?
It was at least ten thousand Jin, or even more.
This wasn’t a gold mine at all, it was an ancient gold vein.
May the heavens bless my Qiu clan to rise again.
Beside him, Tang Zong’s breathing had also become hot and hurried.
It really was an ancient gold vein.
Who knew how much gold there was in this place?
“Duke of raging tide, what should we do now?” “All of uncle Black Tortoise’s guards are at the bottom of the mine. Should we charge into the mine in one go and kill them all?” Tang Zong asked. Take away the entire ancient gold vein?”
Qiu Tianwei’s heart was filled with a strong impulse.
Charge down, charge down!
He had killed all the Jin clan members.
They would take all the gold and occupy the ancient gold vein.
But,
Looking at this huge mine pit, Chou Tianwei instinctively felt danger.
This sinkhole looked too ghastly, and it instinctively gave people the feeling that it was a fatal trap.
Shen lang was extremely vicious and cunning.
What if he had set up a shocking trap in this huge mine?
“No! I’m not going down!”
The Pirate King Qiu Tianwei said, ” the ancient gold vein won’t run away. The thousands of people under uncle Black Tortoise won’t be able to escape either. We’ll surround them and not attack.
“Is there a need for this?” Tang Zong asked.
“What if there’s a trap in the mine?” the Pirate King Qiu Tianwei asked.
A trap? What trap?
This mine pit was full of hard stones, not a forest or a swamp. Where was the trap?
However, even his father, Tang Lun, did not have much room to speak in front of Qiu Tianwei, let alone him, Tang Zong.
yes, everything will be in accordance with the will of the Duke of raging tide!
Therefore, the suspicious Pirate King Qiu Tianwei set up camp above the huge mine and surrounded the entire mine.
He just refused to come down.
Uncle Black Tortoise, so what if you’re hiding under the mine?
Do you have enough food? Is there enough water?
I’ll surround you and starve you to death or die of thirst.
Even if there was a trap, it would make you completely blind.
Finally, I’m going to catch a turtle in a jar.
…………
In a stone house at the bottom of the huge mine.
Jin Zhong looked at the densely packed pirate camp, and said worriedly, ” “master, what should we do if qiu tianwei’s army doesn’t come down? It took us a few months to set up an inescapable net and a shocking trap in this mine. But if Chou Tianwei’s pirate Army doesn’t come down, we can’t do anything.”
That’s right!
It’s useless to set up a trap. They won’t step in.
Uncle Black Tortoise said indifferently,”you’re already anxious?” He would definitely step in, according to lang ‘er’s plan, step by step. Lang ‘er’s understanding of the human heart is terrifying.”
Shen lang had never lost to anyone in psychological warfare.
Unless you were not greedy, did not have a grudge, and did not hate.
Otherwise, he would definitely fall into Shen Lang’s trap. It was only a matter of time.
“At least until now, everything that Qiu Tianwei has done is in line with lang ‘er’s prediction,” Earl Jin Zhuo said.
………………
Qiu Yao ‘er had warned Shen lang not to step into raging tide city again, or he would be killed without mercy.
Therefore, Shen lang came again.
It had been more than a month since he had been ravaged by Chou Yao ‘er.
He had once again stepped into this extremely prosperous city.
This time, raging tide city was still extremely prosperous, but it had become chaotic.
Because Qiu Tianwei’s pirate Army had left, Qiu Yao ‘er gathered all her troops in the city Lord’s Manor and closed the door tightly. She didn’t care about what was happening outside.
In the beginning, the villains of raging tide city were still very careful.
However, they soon realized that no one really cared about them, so they began to kill and Rob.
The city’s crimes were being released.
It was getting more and more chaotic.
More and more spies and Warriors had infiltrated the city.
The good and the bad were mixed together.
Along the way, Shen lang had seen at least three robberies and two murders.
However, the shops on both sides of the street continued to do business.
This was because there were more than ten martial artists standing guard outside each shop. Ordinary hooligans would not dare to provoke them.
This was the real chaos City.
Shen lang entered a courtyard under the escort of hundreds of elite warriors.
order all the Warriors hiding in raging tide city to gather!
“Prepare to attack the raging tide city Lord’s mansion!”
