Steel Dynasty - Chapter 585
[Chapter 585 Control the whole island]
“Boom, boom, boom…”
The black iron ball hit the pirate ship with a dull sound. A pirate ship was hit by dozens of cannonballs and was instantly shattered. Some soldiers were directly hit by the cannonballs. Beaten to a pulp.
Fear, deep fear, the shouts of the soldiers of the Three Mountain Kingdom instantly turned into screams, a ship was torn apart, and the entire fleet was in chaos.
Murayama Keiaki stood on the sea ship. There was no one on either side of him. Countless shells whizzed past his ears and took away all his crew members. He was speechless, his legs were shaking and he could not move. There were countless flying sawdust and blood in his eyes, and with the rumbling sound, the ships sank one by one.
Looking at the fleeing soldiers and the desperate expressions on their faces, Yue Yun once again realized the horror of this weapon. Just a hundred meters away, the pirate warships were directly penetrated by cannonballs. A dozen cannonballs were enough to destroy them. It was a sea ship, and most of the pirates were directly hit by the dense cannonballs, flying out in a string, and they could not survive.
The battle was fierce, and the warships of the Three Mountain Kingdom had nowhere to escape. The ships that tried to escape were also sunk one by one. After half an hour, only floating debris and corpses were left on the sea.
“Stop shooting and capture a few alive.” Yue Yun gave the order. The navy of the Sanshan Kingdom had completely collapsed and there was no longer any threat.
After his order was issued, the fleet took action and sailed towards the destroyed warship. Ropes were thrown down one by one. The soldiers who were not dead seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and climbed up along the ropes.
“General, let’s capture a Japanese man.” When Yue Yun was staring at the sea intently, a soldier held up a trembling man and threw him in front of Yue Yun. “According to those soldiers, he was sent by the Japanese country to monitor Hu Hai. Moreover, in addition to this pier, there is also a pier where some Japanese pirate ships are parked.”
He glanced at the Japanese and said, “What’s your name?”
“The younger one is Murayama Qiming.” Murayama Keiming was so frightened that he didn’t dare to hide anything.
Yue Yun sneered, “You should know where the dock is. Now lead the way, or I will throw you down to feed the fish.”
“Yes, yes…” Keiming Murayama nodded like garlic.
At this time, Liu Chen had been chasing for nearly forty minutes on the coast. After crossing a hillside, it suddenly became clear in front of him. It turned out that outside the woods was a semicircular sea area surrounded by mountains. It was very vast and It is very hidden. When the fleet came just now, they were blocked by the woods and did not see this bay.
The escaping soldiers were still running down the hillside one by one. On the side of the beach were more than a hundred ships of various sizes docked. Some of the ships had already begun to flee, and the people on board were all dressed as Japanese pirates. .
“Follow me,” Liu Chen yelled, and one by one he rushed down first. Upon seeing this, the Marines followed him, screaming and rushing down.
He had heard the sound of cannons just now, and the fleet must have started a war. After taking this dock, they really controlled this sea area.
At this time, the soldiers of the Sanshan Kingdom were no longer interested in fighting. Liu Chen effortlessly occupied another dock more than ten miles away. At the same time, he also captured more than a dozen warships, but there was nothing he could do about those warships that had escaped.
But just for a moment, he saw the fleet led by Yue Yun sail into the bay, and at the same time, the thundering sound of cannons rang out again.
After shelling for a while, Yue Yun ordered the fleet to sail into this bay. On the way, Murayama Keiming had already explained the characteristics of this excellent bay. According to him, the water in this bay is very deep, more than ten meters, so it is very suitable for ships. They only recently built a dock here to serve as a new dock for Japanese pirates.
The warships docked one after another, and Yue Yun got off the ship.
“Who are these people?”
Yue Yun couldn’t help but ask as there were thousands of people squatting on the pier.
“General, these are the people of Great Chongqing. They were captured by Hu Hai and made slaves here.” Liu Chen said.
“Find a few people to lead the way. We are going to talk to the Kingdom of the Three Mountains.” Yue Yun said after thinking for a while.
The two nodded. Although they had driven away Hu Hai and the Japanese pirates on the island, they still had to occupy the island. To completely occupy the island, they had to talk to the king of the Three Mountains Kingdom.
Moreover, according to Xiao Ming’s plan, they would temporarily station troops on the island to prevent Japanese pirates from counterattacking. After all, it was too close to the Japanese country.
Yue Yun’s proposal was approved by two people, and in addition to garrisoning troops, they also wanted to build a bastion to defend against the enemy. These slaves could still be used for the time being, and in addition to these slaves, they also captured many surrendered soldiers. This construction The bastion needs to quarry rock, and it is most appropriate to hand it over to these prisoners of war now. “I’m afraid your highness is a little worried. Why do you need a bastion to deal with the soldiers on this island?” Liu Chen said.
“You are wrong. These bastions are not to deal with the people here, but to deal with the Japanese pirates. And these are not what we care about. His Highness naturally has his considerations. Our duty is to carry out the task. Now we still follow the Let’s take the road to the residential area,” Yue Yun said.
“Yes!” Liu Chen said.
After that, the two men led the soldiers towards the island. After passing through the woods in front of the dock, they suddenly saw a bright light in front of them.
At this time, there were many rice fields in front of them, and at the end of the rice fields were densely packed houses. These houses were no different from the buildings in Dayu.
“The king’s palace is in the center of the city.” said the people who led the way. He was captured on the island five years ago and is very familiar with everything here.
Yue Yun and Liu Chen nodded and led the army to move forward into the island. After walking twenty miles, they arrived at the residential area.
The common people who led the way introduced them to them on the way here. The characters of the Sanshan Kingdom are the same as those of the Yu Kingdom, and the clothes are exactly the same. However, since they were occupied by Japanese pirates, some of the island’s dignitaries have put on kimonos and learned from the Japanese pirates. language.
Some common people’s children were also required to learn the Japanese language.
The arrival of the army aroused the vigilance of the island residents, who hid in their homes and watched them through the cracks in their windows.
Yue Yun didn’t take it seriously. He understood the situation on the island. This island country with a population of 200,000 had very few troops. Because of this, they were like grass on the wall trying to survive between the Japanese pirates and the Great Chongqing Kingdom.
But from now on, there will no longer be the Three Mountain Kingdom, and from now on this place will be part of the territory of the feudal state.
