Chapter 2049 It’s hard to escape even if you have wings

The fire in the reed marsh was raging, sweeping like a dragon under the howling cold wind. The light snow that fell in the morning did not affect the fire much, but the water from the melted snow added more smoke to the fire, and the billowing black smoke seemed like countless Black Mountain monsters were born.

In the fire, few people were burned to death, but many were choked to death by the thick smoke, reaching about 80%.

The thick smoke caused by this light snowfall significantly increased the mortality rate of the reed marsh fire.

"Help, Help"

"きゅうめい, きゅうめい, Odo-san, Ogi-san, I miss the cherry blossoms in my hometown."

The Japanese pirates cried for their parents and came to the end of their sinful lives in the fire and thick smoke.

Even though many Japanese pirates covered their mouths and noses with diapers, they continued to die in the thick smoke of the fire. The billowing fire and thick smoke made it difficult for them to tell the direction, and the carbon monoxide and sulfur dioxide in the smoke made it impossible for them to cover their mouths and noses.

The place where the Japanese pirates ambushed was about a hundred meters away from the path, and this hundred-meter distance became an insurmountable road of death for the Japanese pirates.

Of course, there were also many Japanese pirates who could not see the direction clearly in the thick smoke of the fire, but they relied on their memory to escape to the roadside.

The Japanese pirates who had finally escaped from the sea of ​​fire did not dare to flee south. With the Zhejiang Army in the south, they only dared to flee north. After crossing the bridge, they escaped from Jiashan County and arrived in Southern Zhili. They escaped.

I will settle this account with the Zhu family and the Zhejiang Army later.

Uh

Still not good

If you encounter the Zhejiang Army again, stay as far away from them as possible. The Zhejiang Army is too powerful for us Japanese pirates!

Run North

Run, run, run again, you will get on the bridge, you will escape, if you survive a disaster, there will be blessings in the future, good things will definitely happen in the future.

The smile of hope that they would be blessed in the future after surviving a disaster quickly withered on the Japanese pirates' faces before it could even bloom. In sight, to the north, under the bridge, there were rows of Zhejiang soldiers in full cotton armor. The first row was squatting, the second row was bowing, and the third row was standing.

"There is an ambush ahead! Zhejiang Army, it's the Zhejiang Army!" The Japanese pirates in the front shouted in panic.

Before they turned around, they saw a flash of fire on the opposite side, followed by the neat and dense sound of musketry "bang bang bang".

Severe pain, screaming, falling to the ground

The Japanese pirates in the front had barely shouted that there was an ambush when they were shot to pieces by a volley of musket fire and fell to the ground dead.

The Japanese pirates who were escaping behind had no time to brake, and continued to rush forward by inertia, stepping on the bodies of the fallen Japanese pirates.

The first three rows of Zhejiang troops retreated after firing their muskets, and the back three rows of Zhejiang troops stepped forward again, holding their muskets in the same squatting, bending, and standing positions. The neat and dense "bang bang bang" sounds rang out again.

The Japanese pirates had no time to brake and were almost all shot to pieces by the dense fire from the muskets, falling dead to the ground.

Only two Japanese pirates escaped the disaster because they were tripped by the corpses of the Japanese pirates in front of them.

The Japanese pirates at the back realized belatedly that the Zhejiang Army was ambushing in front of them from the "bang bang" sound of muskets, the screams of being shot, and the shouts of "The Zhejiang Army is ambushing". They quickly turned around and ran back, but unfortunately they collided with the Japanese pirates who were running forward. A group of Japanese pirates turned around and rushed forward and collided with each other. In the fear of life and death, they refused to give in to each other and rolled on the ground, and naturally got trampled.

"Fuck, I fell down, don't step on me, don't step on me, ah"

Screams rang out one after another. I don’t know how many Japanese pirates were trampled to the ground. There was only exhalation, no intake of air.

"Don't run forward, you bastards. The Zhejiang Army has ambushed us. It's a dead end!"

"Hurry, the reeds over there are not on fire, get in quickly."

"You are crazy. If you go into the reed marsh, they will set it on fire. I just escaped from the sea of ​​fire, which is already a blessing from my ancestors. If there is another big fire, I don't have the confidence that I can escape. Whoever wants to go in can go in. I won't go in anyway."

"If we don't go through the reed marsh, we will be dead. There are Zhejiang troops in front and behind us. There is a big fire over there. No matter the fire or the firearms of the Zhejiang army, they will not show mercy to any Japanese pirates!"

"Don't go too deep into the reed marsh. The Zhejiang army is lying in ambush at the bridgehead. But the river is long. We can get through the reed marsh to the river bank and cross to the other side."

After the Japanese pirates trampled on them, the surviving pirates panicked and became confused. They didn't know where to run.

Just as the Japanese pirates were making a fuss, a few "bang" sounds were heard and the Zhejiang Army's tiger squat cannon fired towards this side.

The range of the musket could not reach that point, but the range of the tiger squat cannon was long enough to cover the location of the Japanese pirates.

The Tiger Crouching Cannon fires granular shells, and one shot can cover a large area.

Dense rain of iron balls and gravel exploded among the Japanese pirates, piercing the bodies of one pirate after another.

"what"

A burst of screams rang out again, and the Japanese pirates fell to the ground, both dead and injured.

"Everyone, don't worry about each other. Just run wherever you want. If we stay together, we will be too conspicuous. It's better to disperse and escape."

"That makes sense. If we gather together, the possibility of being targeted by the Zhejiang Army is too high. Everyone take care of yourselves. I'm leaving first."

The surviving Japanese pirates dared not stay where they were. They shouted and fled in different directions, some in groups of three or five, some alone. They did not care whether the reed marsh would catch fire or not, and they fled into the reed marsh.

"Sir, the Japanese pirates who escaped from the fire have gone back to the reed marshes. They are probably going to the river and cross the river to escape."

Liu Mu saw from afar that some Japanese pirates had entered the reed marsh again. He guessed their intentions and quickly reported to Zhu Pingan.

"Send rockets to set fire to the reeds along the river bank."

"Also, quickly send rangers to search the other side of the river and all the roads leading to Nanzhili. The Japanese pirates must have fled back to their lair in Tuolin to escape the river! With the Ten-Household Baojia System in place, it will be extremely difficult for the Japanese pirates to hide in Zhejiang."

Zhu Ping'an immediately gave the order.

Soon, the reeds on the river bank also began to burn fiercely, and the Japanese pirates who had just escaped into the reed marshes were once again faced with the fire and thick smoke.

Many Japanese pirates who had just escaped from the fire and smoke fell down in this fire and smoke.

Only a few Japanese pirates were able to escape.

After escaping the fire again, the Japanese pirates came to the river. No matter how deep or shallow the water was, no matter how cold the water was, and no matter whether they could float or not, under the threat of death, they jumped into the rolling river one after another.

The river was very large and deep. The Japanese pirates who could not swim disappeared as soon as they jumped into the river. Others suffered cramps due to the stimulation of the icy water as soon as they jumped into the river. Their ability to float was useless and they were gradually swallowed up by the river.

Finally, some Japanese pirates crossed the river, but before they could be happy, the Zhejiang Rangers came to kill them.
