"Bang, bang, bang..."
The neat and dense sound of musketry rang out again from the Zhejiang Army's position, bringing the quiet world back to reality.
At this time, there were still seven or eight hundred Japanese pirates surviving in front of the Zhejiang Army's position. They were all the lucky ones who survived the continuous explosions and steel rain. They stood on the battlefield like lost souls. They had not yet recovered from the shock, and dozens of them were knocked down in this round of musketry.
This was also because the survivors were standing in scattered positions, otherwise this round of musketry would have killed far more people than this.
At this point, the surviving Japanese pirates finally came to their senses. If they didn’t come to their senses, they would be dead.
run!
Run without looking back!
The six or seven hundred surviving Japanese pirates all chose to turn around and run away. If they didn't run away, they would really turn around.
Supervisory team? Haha, where is the supervisory team? Almost all of them are dead! Those who are still alive also ran away.
The Zhejiang Army is not human! Is it possible for a human to do that series of earth-shattering explosions
Even if he ran back and was killed as a deserter, he would be killed. At least his body would be intact, or at most his body would be separated.
What if I stay?!
Haha, they saw the series of earth-shattering explosions with their own eyes. The Japanese pirates at the center of the explosion were blown into slag. They were really slag, slag in the literal sense. Not to mention the broken limbs and debris, there was not even a piece of flesh weighing more than one or two pounds. It was a great blessing for his ancestors to find a broken hand...
Even if it was a slow execution, the best executioner could only cut a few hundred times, which was nothing compared to this. The damn thing was fried into minced meat. It would be impossible to achieve this effect without tens of thousands of cuts...
Not only did the surviving Japanese pirates run back, but even the main Japanese pirate army that was supporting them also turned around collectively.
"Damn, that unlucky guy Hojo seems to be dead?!" Chen Dong looked at the surviving Japanese pirates running back. He looked at him several times but did not see Hojo Michisan. He couldn't help but swallowing.
"You just saw it. He was unlucky. He seemed to be at the center of the explosion. He must have been shattered. Didn't he always say that he was willing to die for their damn emperor and for the Hojo family leader? Haha, now he has got what he wanted. He really shattered..."
Ma Ye wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and couldn't help but make sarcastic remarks.
These Japanese chieftains were not all harmonious. There was all sorts of competition and dirty deeds among them. They all wanted to annex each other and become bigger and stronger. That's how these Japanese chieftains came to be. Maya and Hojo Dosan were quite dirty.
Now that Hojo Dosan had been blown to pieces, his retainers and confidants were also blown to pieces. The other Japanese pirates under his command were not qualified to be Japanese chieftains and could only wait to be divided up by several Japanese chieftains such as Ma Ye, Chen Dong and Xu Hai.
"Stop making sarcastic remarks. The Zhejiang Army's firearms are too weird. I always feel that this place is not safe. What if the Zhejiang Army has tampered with the underground..." Chen Dong said with a sense of trepidation.
"Fuck, you're so right. Let's step back and wait until the sun comes out. We'll check it carefully again. Once we're sure there's no problem, we'll do it again with the Zhejiang Army. Don't make the same mistake twice."
When Maye heard this, he jumped up subconsciously. He was very nervous, fearing that he would repeat the mistake of Hojo Michisan.
The continuous explosions just now were really too horrible, too tragic, and simply inhumane.
How can I not have more thoughts in my heart
"A gentleman does not stand on a dangerous wall, so let's retreat for now." Xu Hai also nodded in agreement. This place was only a mile away from the Zhejiang Army's position, so it was not impossible for the Zhejiang Army to make some moves.
The three Japanese chiefs reached a consensus, waved their hands, and issued an order to retreat, which was warmly supported by all the Japanese pirates.
As a result, the rear team of the Japanese pirate army became the front team and began to retreat.
"What the hell? Why did the army run away?"
"The Zhejiang Army must be catching up with us, run quickly."
The hundreds of Japanese pirates who fled the battlefield had not yet run back to the main camp when they saw the main army begin to retreat. They thought that the Zhejiang army was catching up with them, so they ran even faster.
At first the Japanese pirate army retreated slowly and in an orderly manner, but in the meantime, rumors started to spread from somewhere and became more and more chaotic and bizarre. There were rumors saying things like "the Zhejiang army has caught up with us", "the Zhejiang army has also buried gunpowder here, it's about to explode, hurry up and run, it will be too late if you don't run", "the Zhejiang army commander is performing a ritual to invite thunder from the sky, whoever runs slower will be struck to death", etc. In short, under the influence of rumors, they retreated faster and faster, from a slow retreat, to a big step retreat, to a quick step retreat, and then faster and faster, and then they got out of control. The Japanese pirates scrambled to escape, just like the camp was roaring and exploded.
There was no way. The continuous, earth-shattering, mountain-shattering explosions that had just happened, people being blown into slag, people being blown into sieves, and so on, had a great impact on the Japanese pirates' psychology. It was no longer something that could be described by the word "terrifying". They were extremely frightened and their nerves were on the brink of collapse.
At this moment, hearing that the Zhejiang Army was chasing them, that the gunpowder was about to explode, that the commander of the Zhejiang Army had performed a ritual to attract thunder from the sky, etc., his nerves, which were extremely frightened and on the verge of collapse, naturally froze.
The collapse of one person is like a plague, quickly spreading to those around him. They rush to escape. Some are merciful and will grab the person in front of them to escape. Some will even take out their weapons and chop down the person blocking their way.
For a while, the Japanese pirates were in chaos and it looked like a camp war was about to break out.
"Damn it! The Zhejiang Army didn't catch up! There's no gunpowder underground to explode! Zhu Ping'an would never trigger a thunderbolt!"
"Stop right there, if anyone runs again, I'll kill him!"
Xu Hai was furious and swung his sword to kill three Japanese pirates who were trying to escape. The veins on his neck bulged.
He now deeply regretted his decision to retreat. It was too hasty and his mentality was affected by the huge explosion just now.
Forgetting about their own situation, the Japanese pirates have little discipline. They rely on violence, coercion and the temptation of gold and silver. The more frustrated they are, the more they cannot retreat easily, otherwise they will easily lose control, just like now.
Fortunately, it is still in the early stages of getting out of control and there is still room for recovery.
Merciless and violent killings can also deter them from falling into the situation where the camp is destroyed.
If it really turns into a camp explosion, then there is no way to save the situation, and even the most powerful generals will lose control of their troops. It is normal for most of the army to be killed or injured after a camp explosion.
Chen Dong and Ma Ye also knew the seriousness of the matter. They followed Xu Hai's example, slashed several out-of-control Japanese pirates to death with their swords, and ordered them to stop.
Under the decisive action of Xu Hai and other Japanese chieftains, the Japanese pirates finally stopped their retreat and gradually came to a halt.
After all this turmoil, hundreds of Japanese pirates were trampled to death or killed by each other.
