"De de de..."
The sound of the Zhejiang Army's horses' hooves was like the soul-stirring drumbeats from hell, getting closer and closer and louder and louder, shaking the people on and under the bridge, and even the Japanese pirates on the other side of the bridge, all of whom were terrified, scared to death, and their spleens and gallbladders were broken.
The Zhejiang army was only a mile away from the bridgehead. Rows of Zhejiang soldiers were riding their horses, and the overwhelming sense of oppression was coming at them every minute.
The window of opportunity to escape is closing soon!
In order to seize the last chance to escape, the Japanese pirates fought fiercely for the road on and under the bridge. Where was the friendship among Japanese friends? The Japanese swords shone and blood was shed at any moment. Some Japanese pirates were killed in any moment.
Chen Dong, standing alone and disheveled in the wind, turned around limping and looked at the Zhejiang army that was about to rush over at any moment.
Closed his eyes.
In the morning, he was still a powerful leader of the Japanese army, but in the blink of an eye, he became a lonely man abandoned by his friends and relatives.
A lame lonely man!
Forget it, forget it, let’s just keep our dignity for now!
Although I, Chen Dong, am not a powerful and influential figure, I am also a powerful Japanese who stirs up the world. How could I fall into the hands of the Ming army in such a miserable way!
Chen Dong made up his mind, opened his eyes, and reached out to touch the sword at his waist, but he searched left and right for a long time and couldn't find it. He looked down and there was no trace of the sword at his waist, not even a hair.
What's going on
That was a top-notch Japanese sword, which he had to use all means to snatch from an old Japanese samurai. It could cut through a hair with a breath, and although it could not cut iron as well as mud, he had used it to cut off three Ming army swords.
Since he got it, Chen Dong has treated it like a treasure. He treasures it so much that he never leaves the knife. Even when his leg was broken in the forest fire, he never left the knife. How come it is not around his waist now?!
Chen Dong looked around blankly, and then saw his personal soldiers fighting with all their strength to carve out a bloody path at the bridgehead.
Um?!
Damn it! The personal soldier who said he was going to kill Wang Er, then ran away with his sword in anger, wasn't he holding my precious sword?! Damn it, it turns out that when you ran away with your sword, you were holding my sword!
Fuck! You old bastard, you took my sword away, how can I kill myself? !
Chen Dong cursed and felt his whole body again. As a result, there was no weapon on his body. No dagger, no hidden weapon, even the belt he used to hang himself on the southeast branch was gone. The belt was burned in the fire!
Damn it, what a sin, I don’t even have a thing of my own, how can I live a decent life? !
"Ahem, guys in front, give me a weapon."
Chen Dong coughed and shouted to the Japanese pirates in front who were fighting for their lives and their brains were exposed.
He continued to fight the Japanese pirates in front as usual, with no one to stop him. Only the bleak wind whistled past.
Is the sound too low?!
"Hey, you little brats in front, didn't you hear what I said?! Give me some weapons!"
Chen Dong was angry, his voice was so loud that it was hoarse.
Now someone turned around, but just glanced at Chen Dong, then turned his head back and continued fighting.
At this critical moment of life and death, who cares who you are? What's more, you are now lame, abandoned by your friends and relatives, in a miserable state, and unarmed.
Seeing this scene, Chen Dong was stunned for a few seconds, then he pulled the corners of his mouth and shook his head as if crying and laughing.
"Ha ha ha ha."
At first the sound was barely audible.
"Ha ha ha ha… "
The sound became louder and louder, and the expression on Chen Dong's face became more and more exaggerated. Finally, he limped over, supported his waist, and laughed out loud.
"Crazy, crazy, completely crazy..."
The Japanese pirates who were beaten to a bloody pulp in the fight ahead turned around and saw this scene. They sighed and fought even more fiercely.
The Zhejiang army was rushing here without stopping, the Japanese pirates were fighting for their way through, their heads bleeding and their brains scattered all over the ground, and Chen Dong was laughing loudly towards the sky, when suddenly a sharp-eyed Japanese pirate saw the Japanese pirates on the opposite side frantically chopping several supporting beams of the wooden bridge.
"Fuck, people on the other side, what are you doing?! You cut down the wooden bridge, how are we going to cross the river?!"
Seeing this scene, the Japanese pirates couldn't help but scream with pale faces.
Hearing the shouts, the Japanese pirates who were fighting with blood all over their heads and brains all over the ground were all frightened. They quickly stopped what they were doing and looked across.
Oh shit, sure enough, I saw a group of Japanese pirates on the opposite side surrounding a few supporting timbers, chopping them hard like crazy.
It's been chopped down in half, only about half of the supporting wood is left, and the wooden bridge is crumbling.
"Fuck, stop it, stop it, are you beasts?! If you cut down the fucking bridge, are we going to turn into birds and fly over?!"
"You beasts, please behave like human beings. You just crossed the river and you want to destroy the bridge. Are you still human beings?!"
"Fuck, are you guys going to destroy the bridge after crossing it?! Stop, stop, stop now, I'm about to cross the bridge, can you at least wait until I cross the bridge before you destroy it?! After I cross the bridge, all the gold, silver and jewelry I stole will be given to you."
"Brother, brother, please stop. We are from the same hometown, and I was the one who saved you from the fire. Have you forgotten? For the sake of your brotherhood, please stop. Stop chopping..."
When the Japanese pirates saw this, they couldn't help but change their faces, or cursed loudly with red faces and thick necks, and repeatedly ordered the Japanese friends on the opposite side to stop, or played the emotional card, saying that they were from the same hometown and could save their lives, etc., to get the Japanese friends on the opposite side to stop.
However, no matter how they scolded, threatened, bribed, or played the emotional card, it was all useless.
The Japanese pirates on the opposite side showed no mercy and even chopped the bridge more vigorously, swinging their swords continuously and sending broken wood flying everywhere.
The wooden bridge shook even more violently.
Their idea was very simple. If they didn't cut the wooden bridge, the Zhejiang army would catch up and kill the Japanese friends who didn't cross the bridge. The next step would be to cross the bridge and continue to chase them! In order to stop the Zhejiang army from chasing, cutting the wooden bridge was the simplest and most effective way.
This wooden bridge is the only one within a radius of dozens of miles. If the Zhejiang army wants to cross the river, they either have to take a detour of dozens of miles or build a bridge. Either way, it can at least buy them an hour or so, which is enough for them to escape.
Therefore, the bridge must be cut down. This is also the death order issued by Xu Hai and Ma Ye!
However, the Japanese pirates who had not yet crossed the bridge could not accept this. The Zhejiang army was less than a mile away and was about to rush over, and you were actually going to cut off our last chance of survival? !
That won’t do!
If you cut off my way to survival, you will become my enemy. The Japanese pirates who had not yet crossed the bridge all cursed madly while pulling out their weapons and throwing them at their Japanese friends on the other side who were hacking at the bridge frantically!
All of a sudden, Japanese swords, spears, katana, pheasant swords, wakizashi, axes, hidden weapons and other various weapons were thrown to the opposite side like hail.
In an instant, several Japanese pirates who were cutting down the bridge fell down screaming...
However, the opponents were not idiots who would wait to be pelted with knives, and they quickly organized shields, wooden boards and other items to provide cover.
Continue to cut the bridge madly.
The sound of the Zhejiang army's horses' hooves, the clinking of woodcutters, the crazy curses of the Japanese pirates, and Chen Dong's laughter all intertwined together, playing the elegy for the Japanese pirates' souls...
