The four armies fought, each with its own purpose.
The real Japanese pirates want to kill all the young soldiers.
The fake Japanese pirates wanted to kill everyone except the prince of Han, including Ji Gang, because the king of Han wanted to silence them.
Ji Gang is desperate and wants to kill everyone except A Lei.
The Ming navy and the young army are a united front to wipe out all the real and fake Japanese pirates.
Everyone had a clear goal, and the battlefield was chaotic yet orderly.
When Zhu Zhanhe saw the Ming navy arrive, he fired wildly at the shallows where the fake Japanese pirates had just landed. The shallows were like a pot of boiling water, gurgling and spewing corpses and debris into the sky.
Ji Gang's long legs had already outrun the range of the artillery. Judging from his direction, he was currently encircling the base camp with the escaped Japanese pirates and assassinating the Crown Prince.
Zhu Zhanhe got down from the artillery position, mounted his horse, and chased after Ji Gang.
The Japanese pirates who escaped from prison attacked the young army's base camp almost unhindered, intending to take the crown prince hostage and escape, only to find that the base camp was deserted.
The time goes back to before the Japanese pirates escaped from prison and the yellow smoke rose.
Zhu Zhanji finally used the broken porcelain pieces to cut the rope, untied himself and Alei one after another, and said, "Zhu Zhanhe is too reckless. The traitor is extremely cunning and cruel. He is not so easy to deceive. It is very likely that he will smell that we suspect him and then do something desperate. I want to help him."
Zhu Zhanji left in a hurry with his guards. Both Zhu brothers were in danger, so how could Arei stay? As soon as Zhu Zhanji left, she put on his armor, held a bamboo stick, pretended to be a young soldier, rode a horse and chased after Zhu Zhanji.
When the guards of the base camp saw that Are was missing, they had to go looking for Are with their weapons. As a result, the escaped Japanese pirates attacked from the south slope and found that the base camp was almost empty.
Zhu Zhanji led his men down the mountain to look for Zhu Zhanhe. When they were halfway up the mountain, they happened to meet Ji Gang who was about to rush up the mountain.
The one thousand Jinyiwei under Ji Gang were almost all his old subordinates who had followed Mao Xiang since the Hongwu era. They experienced together Mao Xiang's being lingchi, the disbandment of the Jinyiwei, and the unemployment of all the Jinyiwei. They fell from the top to the bottom, were secretly recruited by Ji Gang, dug corners of Emperor Jianwen, supported Emperor Yongle to ascend the throne, restored the Jinyiwei organization, and returned to the top.
These old subordinates' loyalty to Ji Gang had long surpassed that of Emperor Yongle.
Just now, Zhu Zhanhe wanted to kill Ji Gang and fired at the Jinyiwei, and they were blown to pieces. These people were immediately furious. It is true that when the cunning rabbit dies, the running dog is cooked. The Zhu family is full of ungrateful wolves!
So they followed their old leader Ji Gang in rebellion. When they saw Zhu Zhanji rushing down with his young army, they immediately raised their guns and started shooting.
The Jinyiwei and the Youjun fought among themselves, and they turned from comrades into opponents, shooting at each other. Both sides suffered heavy casualties, like wheat being harvested with a sickle, falling down in rows.
The Jinyiwei were experienced in many battles, and the young army was fearless like a newborn calf. When the new and old armies fought, no one retreated or fled, and the battle ended in a draw.
Under this cruel suicidal style of fighting, ammunition and soldiers were quickly exhausted. The Jinyiwei fought desperately to protect their old leader Ji Gang; the young soldiers used their bodies as shields to protect the crown prince.
Faith and loyalty outweigh the fear of death; this is the military spirit.
In an instant, Zhu Zhanji understood what Mu Chun said: "An army that has not experienced war has no soul."
The most notorious group in the military is the Embroidered Uniform Guard, but these people also have military spirit.
Now the young soldier has a soul, but he has also paid a terrible price.
When both sides had fired all their arrows and bullets, and no more than twenty people were left alive, they all drew their swords and began to fight in close combat.
After experiencing the artillery bombardment and hail of bullets, Ji Gang's face turned red, black and white, and his once handsome face turned into a clown face. Looking at his comrades who had fought together with him since the Hongwu era dying at his feet, Ji Gang had no time to feel sad, and drew his sword to slash at Zhu Zhanji.
Zhu Zhanji drew his sword to block, and the two men fought hard, each of their attacks being an unreserved killing move.
Ji Gang was experienced, while Zhu Zhanji was young and strong, and the two men ended up in a draw.
Suddenly, a Jinyiwei who was shot and lying on the ground hugged Zhu Zhanji's legs tightly as he was dodging.
Zhu Zhanji couldn't stop and half-knelt on the ground.
Rebels usually die because they talk too much. But Ji Gang is not an ordinary rebel, he is unique.
Ji Gang didn't say a word and swung his dagger towards Zhu Zhanji's neck.
Death finally came, and Zhu Zhanji suddenly felt inexplicably calm. It was all finally over. I finally didn't have to be so tired, and I didn't have to be forced to make a difficult choice... It was over.
Ping!
With a gunshot, a bright red flower exploded on Ji Gang's chest.
The Embroidered Spring Sword fell from his hand and stuck a foot into the mud. Ji Gang held the handle of the sword and barely supported his body. He was wearing soft armor, and the shot broke the armor and skin but did not injure his internal organs, so he did not die.
Snap!
This is the sound of the bullet being loaded again, and the other party is going to fire a second shot.
Damn it! Ji Gang took out the flying knife from his waist and headed in the direction of the gunshot. He saw a young soldier in bright armor riding on a horse, holding a flintlock rifle and aiming at him.
The moment the flying knife slipped out of his hand and stabbed towards the soldier who fired the gun, Ji Gang's hand shook and he deliberately changed the trajectory of the flying knife.
Because she is the daughter of A Lei-Hu Shanwei.
After disguising herself as a man, A Lei and Hu Shanwei are somewhat similar, especially her extremely serious and forcedly calm expression, which is exactly the same as Hu Shanwei's.
The flying knife brushed past Are's cheekbone and cut the skin on his cheekbone, leaving a thin red line on his fair skin.
Arei rode his horse to chase Zhu Zhanji. When the Jinyiwei and the young soldiers shot at each other wildly, she had no choice but to ride away. When both sides drew their swords to fight, she rode her horse again, holding a flintlock to support, and saw Zhu Zhanji dueling with a clown.
A Lei is mildly nearsighted. In broad daylight without his glasses, she couldn't recognize that the clown was Ji Gang.
Zhu Zhanji was ambushed and fell to his knees, and the clown wielded a knife to kill him!
Arey fired.
The clown half-knelt on the ground and drew out a flying knife to kill her, but he missed.
Ping!
Are fired the second shot without hesitation.
This time, Ji Gang's chest was not protected by soft armor and exploded completely, with blood gushing out.
Ji Gang fell backwards to the ground.
Strength flowed out of his body along with the blood, like a river bursting its banks. His body was about to die, and his limbs seemed unwilling to give up, twitching and shaking on their own.
In a trance, he saw a girl who looked very similar to Hu Shanwei riding a horse towards him with a concerned expression (the target was actually Zhu Zhanji).
Ji Gang seemed to have returned to the past, when he was still the number one vase in the Jinyiwei, with a hairy head covering his head. He lived a heartless life, just being silly and happy all day long, and being free and easy.
Mao Xiang was very disappointed with him. "You should find a woman to marry as soon as possible. You will never achieve anything great in your life. You just know how to muddle through. If you give birth to a child and leave offspring, that would be the pinnacle of your life."
Ji Gang: "It's impossible to get married. I will never get married in this life. If you want to get married, go ahead and do it yourself. If you have a child, I will adopt him as my godson."
Mao Xiang was furious: "There are rumors going around the palace now, saying that you and Hu Shang Gong are having an affair, and that the two of you always go on business trips together, and have an affair without a matchmaker. The rumor also says that your relationship with Hu Shang Gong started when Empress Xiaoci was assassinated, and you saved her in the silkworm house, and since then Hu Shang Gong has pledged her love to you in return for saving her life. These rumors are very convincing. You have not married all this time, just waiting for Hu Shang Gong to leave the palace. This kind of heart-breaking rumor can be resolved by getting married."
Ji Gang smiled instead of getting angry, "Since Lord Mao said it was a rumor, don't take it seriously. Someone in the palace is spreading rumors and causing trouble. The Jinyiwei and the Gongzhengsi will work together to investigate and find the rumormonger, and the rumor will disappear."
Mao Xiang sneered: "From what I see, you seem to be even happier after hearing the rumor. Are you hoping that the rumor is true?"
Ji Gang chuckled, "No, you are talking nonsense, don't talk nonsense."
Mao Xiang was helpless: "The falling flowers have feelings, but the flowing water has no intention. Sooner or later, you will fall into Hu Shanwei's hands!"
… My body was getting colder and colder, my vision was getting blurrier and blurrier, and it gradually shrank into a white line. The white line kept flickering, like a candle in the wind, about to go out.
Ji Gang thought to himself: What you said has come true, Lord Mao. You were half right. I died at the hands of Hu Shanwei's daughter, so it can be considered... a worthy death.
The white line disappeared completely, and Ji Gang fell into endless, eternal darkness.
