Until the dense and orderly sound of fire was heard, a large number of people on General Wang's side fell down like wheat being cut, and screams were heard one after another. Shang Zhifu and others on the city wall still found it hard to believe what they saw.
Is Zhu Ping'an's way of proving his guilt to be to kill all of General Wang's party members so that there is no evidence to prove his guilt?!
Zhu Ping'an, who is young, has an honest face, and behaves like a gentleman, can be so cruel!
That's right, Yunwen was able to get the top spot in the imperial examination before he was 20 years old, offended the experienced Yan Gelao, and was able to escape unscathed; Yunwu was able to make a comeback during the Japanese invasion and even make further progress, how could he be an easy person? !
As the ancients said, a merciful leader cannot lead an army. Among those who can lead an army, how many are merciful and soft-hearted? Even if there are merciful and soft-hearted people, they will die early in the war, leaving only the cruel and ruthless ones.
However, there is a time to be ruthless and cruel. Now that the Japanese pirates are approaching, how can we turn against each other and kill each other!
Thinking of this, Shang Zhifu could not help but angrily clasped the bricks of the city wall and shouted loudly, "Zihou, stop it! You stop it too! Stop it all!"
However, it was of no avail. The people in the city turned a deaf ear to the enemy. Not only did the Zhejiang army not stop, but General Wang's side also began to counterattack.
Alas, General Wang has fallen. It seems that if he is not dead, he will only be half alive. How can his soldiers not fight to the death?!
Sure enough, I saw the soldiers on General Wang's side grabbing their weapons and rushing towards the Zhejiang Army on the opposite side...
Opposite them, the first wave of three rows of Zhejiang soldiers opened fire and retreated to reload gunpowder. The second wave of three rows of soldiers came forward and quickly raised their guns and aimed while squatting, bending over, and standing. It seemed that they were about to open fire again...
"Damn it! Zhu Ping'an, you bastard! I must report you! The Japanese pirates are facing a powerful enemy, but they are killing each other!"
When Shang Zhifu saw that the Zhejiang army ignored his words and was about to open fire again, he was so angry that he jumped on the city wall and cursed, and sent a police officer to Qin to impeach Zhu Ping'an!
When mentioning Japanese crowns, the first thing that came to Magistrate Shang's mind was the ones that General Wang and his men had captured.
Outside the city, the soldiers under General Wang were fighting with the Zhejiang army. Wouldn't the captured Japanese pirates be left unattended? ! Would these captured Japanese pirates take the opportunity to escape? Although their hands and feet were tied, there was no one to watch over them. What if someone broke the ropes and broke them, and released the other Japanese pirates?!
The weapons and armor that General Wang and his men seized from the Japanese pirates were on a carriage nearby, and they had not yet entered the city.
Once these pirates break free from the ropes, won't they be able to immediately grab weapons and armor from the carriage and arm themselves again? !
Wouldn’t that be dangerous!
Thinking of this, Prefect Shang hurriedly looked towards General Wang's side under the city to see the captured Japanese pirates.
It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it, but when he did, Magistrate Shang was shocked.
Oh shit!
What's happening?!
Prefect Shang watched helplessly as the Japanese pirate captives under the city easily broke free from their ropes.
It's really easy! It's so easy that it's unimaginable.
Prefect Shang couldn't believe his eyes. In his eyes, the ropes that bound the Japanese pirates' hands under the city fell off with just a tug of his hands. The same went for the ropes that bound their feet. They fell off with a slight tug.
The process of the Japanese pirates breaking free from the ropes was easier than taking off their clothes. The ropes fell off with a slight pull.
This was not just a case of one or two Japanese pirates, but all the Japanese pirates were like this, easily breaking free from the ropes that bound them.
If it was just one or two Japanese pirates who were like this, we could say that it was because the soldiers under General Wang were careless and didn't tie up the prisoners properly, but all the Japanese pirates were like this, what does that mean?!
it goes without saying!
Prefect Shang suddenly broke out in a cold sweat on his back, his bones were chilled and his hair stood on end. He instantly felt as if he was standing at the gates of hell.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry..." In panic, Magistrate Shang pointed at the city with trembling fingers, unable to speak for a while.
At this moment, the Zhejiang Army's second round of musket fire also opened fire, and a large number of disguised Japanese pirates rushing towards them fell instantly.
"Your Excellency wants us to stop the Zhejiang Army?!" The deputy general looked at the battle situation below the city and asked for instructions. He then said in embarrassment, "It's hard to do. The Zhejiang Army doesn't even listen to your Excellency, let alone me. Unless we use thundering means to intimidate them from the city..."
At this moment, Zhu Ping'an's voice came from under the city.
"My Lord, fellow soldiers, what are you waiting for? Help me kill the pirates!"
Zhu Ping'an, who was standing below the city wall, raised his head and shouted loudly to the people on the city wall.
"What?! You want us to help you kill people and silence them?! Sir Zhu, you are too self-righteous!!"
When the deputy general heard Zhu Ping'an's shouting from under the city, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, shaking his head and said speechlessly.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry and lend a helping hand to Zihou!" At this time, the Shang prefect finally came back to his senses from his fear and shouted loudly.
"What?! Your Excellency, you want us to lend a helping hand to Lord Zhu?! Do you want us to kill the soldiers under General Wang's command?"
When the deputy general heard the order from Prefect Shang, he was shocked as if he was struck by lightning. He opened his mouth and couldn't close it for a long time.
Magistrate Shang asked us to help Zhu Ping'an. Isn't this asking us to help him kill people and silence them, and to help the tyrant to commit atrocities? !
What is the Master thinking?!
"What are the soldiers under General Wang? They are Japanese pirates. They are not Japanese pirates, but traitors who surrendered to the Japanese pirates! They let the wolf into the house and still want to take advantage of my Suzhou City! They are really traitors and deserve to die. Hateful, hateful!"
Prefect Shang said this with gritted teeth. He couldn't help but grit his teeth in hatred when he thought about how he almost fell into a trap and how Suzhou City almost let the Japanese pirates succeed in their conspiracy.
When he thought about how he had been deceived by Wang and how he had let him into the city and how he had wanted to celebrate for him, and how he had been deceived like a fool by him, he hated him even more.
Fortunately, Zihou realized something was wrong and broke out from the Fengqiao camp, shouting warnings all the way, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
The deputy general standing by was stunned. What was going on? Why did the prefect Shang say that General Wang and his men had become traitors who surrendered to the Japanese pirates? !
"Damn it! What are you still standing there for! Quickly, quickly order the soldiers to attack, aim at the group named Wang outside the city, and fire crossbows and firearms!"
When Prefect Shang saw that the deputy general was stunned and motionless, he hurriedly went up to push the deputy general and gave orders while cursing.
Seeing that the deputy general still had a confused look on his face, Prefect Shang couldn't help but curse, "Idiot! They are Japanese pirates! Didn't you see that all of them broke free from the ropes easily?! It only took a few breaths for them to break free from the ropes and armed themselves with weapons!
How could a normally bound captive be like this? It was obvious that they had colluded from the beginning, hiding their true intentions and plotting to take over our city!"
After hearing the reminder from Prefect Shang, the deputy general looked down at the city and suddenly realized what was going on. He broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly ordered the soldiers on the city to shoot arrows at General Wang and his gang.
