Chapter 2028: All Sows Suffer
"South of the mountain" and "north of the water" are Yang, and "north of the mountain" and "south of the water" are Yin.
Jiangyin is located on the south side of the Yangtze River and on the south side of the Yangtze River. During the Spring and Autumn Period, the fief of Huang Xie, the Lord of Spring and Autumn, was in Jiangyin County, which was known as the "Old Fief of Spring and Autumn". It was a rich land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River, a state bordering the Three Wus, and a meeting place for boats and carriages of the Hundred Yues.
At this time, Jiangyin County was decorated with lights and colors inside and out, immersed in a cheerful atmosphere of faith.
"Boss Wu, I wish you a prosperous business, healthy family, and a happy new year."
"Haha, Boss Liu, I'd like to borrow your good words and wish you great success in the new year and a flourishing business."
"Hahahaha, Boss Wu, we are rivals. If you wish my business to grow steadily, then you are not afraid that my business will take away yours."
"Boss Li, are you stealing my business, or am I stealing your business? It all depends on your ability."
"Hahahaha, ok, well said, let's rely on our own abilities."
People on the street wear new clothes and carry gifts to visit relatives and friends. When they meet on the street, they greet each other and say auspicious words to wish each other a happy new year. Even if they meet old rivals, they will smile and wish each other a happy new year.
In the streets and alleys, children ran out in groups of three or five, showing off their new clothes to each other, taking out snacks such as honey money, preserved fruits, melon seeds, and candies that they could not usually eat from their pockets, and eating them proudly and exaggeratedly.
There are also many naughty children who hold a stick of incense in their hands, take out firecrackers from their pockets, put them on the ground, or put them in strange places, cover their ears with one hand, and stretch out the incense with the other hand, trembling with fear and excitement, and use sparks to light the fuse of the firecrackers.
"Snap" "Bang"
Amid the sound of firecrackers, the naughty kids shouted and laughed with great joy, especially when they scared passers-by and chased them, yelling at them to stop running, they were so happy that they were exploding.
Laughter could be heard from every courtyard, and the aroma of wine, meat and vegetables could be smelled from every courtyard.
It's Chinese New Year.
Every household, men, women, young and old were all immersed in the joy of the New Year. No one would have imagined that a few miles away, dozens of Japanese ships were cutting through the wind and waves, heading upstream towards Jiangyin County.
"Paddle at full speed! The leader said, speed is of the essence in war! Kill him by surprise!" The small leader of the Japanese pirates held a whip and supervised his subordinates to paddle hard. If he saw anyone who was not using all his strength, he would whip him.
"Charge into the county town, and pick any woman you want and have sex with her! The leader said, charge into the county town, and burn, kill, and rob all the houses except the wealthy and powerful families! Whoever you grab is yours!"
The Japanese pirate leader spoke to everyone while waving his whip.
With the help of carrot and whip, the Japanese pirates rowed their boats and the Japanese ships moved forward rapidly like an arrow.
After a while, the Japanese ships rushed to the moat outside Jiangyin County.
"It's here, it's here."
Amid the noise, Shingen Ryuzoji and Shimosaburo Matsuura walked out of the cabin and came to the deck.
The county seat of Jiangyin is in sight.
The endless city wall is eight meters high. The foundation is made of five layers of large stones, and the walls are made of large blue bricks. There are four sub-cities, three city shops, and more than twenty watchtowers and nests. There is a horse racing track on the city, which is wide enough for horses to gallop. There is also a moat outside the city, which leads directly to the mighty river. It is simply a huge city.
"Oh my god, what a huge city! Mr. Xu, Mr. Ma, we are here to attack Jiangyin, why are we attacking such a huge city? This, this, this must be Yingtian, the capital of the Ming Dynasty in Jiangnan, right?!"
When Matsuura Shimosaburo saw Jiangyin County, he exclaimed in surprise, thinking that Xu Hai and Ma Ye had brought them to attack the Ming capital Yingtian, and was shocked.
Although they were proud of their bravery and looked down on the fighting power of the Ming soldiers, they were not so confident that they could attack the capital of the Ming Dynasty with just a few thousand people! In their country of Japan, even to attack the small city of another daimyo, they would need more than 10,000 people!
"Ahem, Mr. Xu, Mr. Ma, we should wait until the army sent by the head of the family arrives before we can attack the capital of the Ming Dynasty."
Shingen Ryuzoji also coughed and repeated it.
"Hahahaha, General Ryuzoji, General Matsuura, this is not the Ming Dynasty's capital Yingtian, this is Jiangyin County."
Maye couldn't help but burst out laughing.
These Japanese are really frogs in the well, without any knowledge at all. They think a county town is the capital! How small must Japan be! How poor must it be! To think a small county town is the capital! No wonder the Japanese warriors are so good at fighting. Poor people are born in poor mountains and bad waters. They are so poor that they can't even afford to eat. They have to fight to the death to get something to eat. How normal.
"What?! This isn't the capital Yingtian, this is actually Jiangyin County?"
"A county town?! A small county town is so huge?! How big must the real capital Yingtian be?! What about the current capital of the Ming Dynasty?! I... I can't even imagine how magnificent the capital must be!"
When Matsuura Shimosaburo and Ryuzoji Shingen heard that this was actually Jiangyin County, they opened their mouths in surprise.
Unbelievable!
Incredible!
In their eyes, such a huge city is actually just the most basic unit of power in the Ming Dynasty - a county town!
The county town is so huge, they can’t imagine how magnificent the prefectural capital, the capital city, and the capital city of Daming must be!
"Hurry, hurry, boys, get off the boat quickly and rush to seize the gate before the soldiers guarding the gate can react!"
Following the orders of Xu Hai and others, the Japanese pirate leader kicked and stomped his pirates off the ship as soon as it docked and headed straight for the county town!
The officers and soldiers guarding the county gate were not completely stupid. Although they were enjoying four dishes and one soup and drinking a lot of wine at the city gate and did not discover the Japanese ship at first, the noise of the Japanese pirates disembarking and the screams of the people outside the city gate made them discover it belatedly.
"Oh no! The Japanese pirates are coming!"
"Quick, stop drinking, close the city gates quickly, and don't let the Japanese pirates enter the city. If the Japanese pirates enter the city, we will all be finished!"
"Close the door, close the door, close the door quickly!"
The soldiers guarding the gate shouted in panic, got down from the table in a hurry, and rushed up to close the city gate, crawling and rolling.
A group of officers and soldiers hurriedly closed the city gate, and finally closed it a second before the Japanese pirates rushed in.
"Thank God, we finally closed the city gate before those killers came in! Let me tell you, we have done a great job this time! If the Japanese pirates entered the city, our county would not be celebrating the Spring Festival, but the Ghost Festival."
An old gatekeeper with gray hair and a breath of alcohol on his lips breathed a sigh of relief after closing the city gate and said that he had survived a disaster.
"We know that the Japanese pirates have burned, killed and looted countless places in this period of time. Wherever the Japanese pirates have broken through the village, fortress, fortress and county town, there will be rivers of blood and hell on earth!"
"If the Japanese pirates enter the city, not only my wife and mother, but even our sow will be in trouble!"
A group of gatekeepers who survived the disaster sat behind the city gate and denounced the Japanese pirates.
