Great Tang Broom Star: Chapter 935 Giant Tang

  Chapter 935 Giant Tang

  The coastline is lush and green, and the side near the sea is more white.

  The waves keep coming in and then receding... Repeatedly.

  Several small sea crabs are crawling furtively on the shore, and a few big birds are slowly approaching not far away...

  This is a fat extra meal... The big birds who just had a delicious meal are very happy.

   Hoo!

   A gust of wind blew by, bringing noise, and the big bird flew away immediately.

   On the merchant ship, the captain and an armored general led out of the cabin.

   "Where is the ship?" The general was short and surprised, "But ours?"

  After escaping back to Japan, the eldest brother, the prince, went crazy, building cities everywhere, and constantly recruiting soldiers... There was news from the palace that the emperor clamored to die with Datang.

  But news came again last month that the emperor said that he would definitely defeat Datang.

  The general was transferred to the newly built city to garrison. He had already passed here, but after encountering a storm, he resolutely docked and waited.

  The captain's face was pale, "It's not our ship, it's a big...a big ship, on it..."

  A boatman screamed, "It's Datang's ship! Only Datang can build such a huge ship."

  In this era, manufacturing is hard power, and Datang's hard power can obviously crush the current world.

   "Tang Ren..."

  The general watched carefully, "More than ten huge ships, are they going to attack?"

  A sergeant behind him said: "More than ten ships cannot attack."

  The general stood on the deck with a knife in both hands, and said in a deep voice: "I'm bringing warriors with one enemy against one hundred this time. Don't worry, you will see a massacre when you go ashore..."

  When he saw the fully armed officers and soldiers of the Tang Army appearing on the deck, the captain turned pale and screamed: "Dock, Dock immediately!"

  The merchant ship turned immediately.

   "They're so fast!"

  The advantage of sharp-bottomed ships is not comparable to that of merchant ships, and the distance between the two sides is getting closer.

   "Crossbow ready..."

  Rows of crossbowmen knelt on one knee on the deck to keep their balance. The crossbow is tilted to point forward.

   "Shoot the arrow!"

  The rain of arrows flew over, and most of them missed, but the merchant ship still suffered heavy casualties.

  The Japanese general who was still full of confidence just now lay on the deck and shouted: "Come to the shore, hurry up, we can kill them when we land."

   These people have never experienced that naval battle at all, so they are full of confidence.

   "Lean to the left and right to see how deep the water is. If you can't make it to the shore, then put down the boat and take the soldiers ashore."

   Two ships on each side approached.

  The left side is okay and can be parked, but the water on the right side is shallow, so we can only put down the boat to land.

   "Catch up!"

   This is the first time Tang Xu has seen combat at sea.

   A wave of crossbow arrows ransacked, and then the Japanese were brought up to shout.

   "This is the Datang Navy. If you are still alive, hurry up and ask to surrender, and if you don't make a sound, you will be killed."

   Nothing happened.

  The merchant ship docked, and a group of Japanese rushed ashore.

  Wo will draw his sword and turn around, with firm eyes, he said: "For the emperor! Kill them all!"

  The Tang army on the left came, with hundreds of people.

  The boat on the right is still tossing on the sea.

  The Japanese general was overjoyed, "Kill them all!"

  He raised his long knife and roared, "The meritorious service is today, follow me!"

  Dozens of Japanese soldiers howled and rushed over.

  Tang Xu's boat had just landed, and he couldn't help being stunned watching this scene.

   "Are the Japanese powerful?"

  Dozens of people dared to attack more than a hundred Tang troops. This... even the most powerful Tubo would not dare?

  The Japanese are so powerful?

  The accompanying Japanese laughed dryly, but he was quite proud in his heart, "It must be a rare warrior. I once saw a warrior who killed him from the street to the end of the street with a single knife. No one can beat him..."

   Tang Xu, who had never fought a Japanese before, was a little surprised.

"look!"

  The two sides collided.

  The knife light kept flickering, and the screams never stopped.

  A team is brandishing a horizontal knife and rushing in from the front, like a chariot, killing from the beginning to the end.

   "This motherfucker..." Tang Xu felt that he had been cheated, and scolded: "Slave dog, hurry up, encircle them, and make sure no one is let go."

  The news of their coming here must be blocked, otherwise things will be very troublesome.

  According to Jia Ping'an's instructions, after discovering Yinshan, they must go back immediately without staying.

   In other words, their mission on this trip was to discover and evacuate immediately.

   Do it cheaply!

   Jia Pingan said this when he sent him off.

  Tang Xu still remembered Jia Ping'an's eyes, half a smile but not a smile, but he felt the chill in it.

   "They escaped!"

  The Japanese army didn't expect the Tang army to be so fierce, but they were defeated in one face-to-face encounter, and then fled in all directions.

   At the critical moment, Tang Jun on the right came over, and with a single outflank, he intercepted the fleeing Japanese army.

   Immediately Tang Xu brought people over to force him.

   "Surrender or not!"

   Tang Jun surrounded them on all sides, constantly compressing the enemy's space.

  The Japanese general shouted: "For the emperor!"

   "Leave the three, the others..." Tang Xu waved.

"kill!"

  In an instant, corpses were everywhere.

  Wo Jiang had his left hand cut off with a single knife, and was dragged over like a dead dog at this moment.

   "It is impossible for Datang to win, and you people will be overwhelmed!"

  Wo will growl.

  Tang Xu scolded: "Slave dog, come here, and use torture to interrogate the recent situation of the Wa Kingdom."

   The accompanying Baiqi made a move, and after only one round, the Japanese general confessed.

   "It is said that the monarchs and ministers are panic-stricken. Many places are building cities. It is said that they have built four defenses, so they are not afraid of the attack of the Tang Dynasty."

   Tang Xu couldn't help being stunned.

  Four lines of defense…

  He suddenly burst out laughing.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

   "Si Dao... is useful for farts!"

  A sergeant sneered: "How many lines of defense do the Koreans have? But in front of the army, they will die!"

  Wo will explain a lot.

  Finally he asked breathlessly, "Some water, maybe?"

  He found that there was something wrong with the people around him.

   "How's the water?"

   "What sea water?"

  Wo Jiang saw a few compatriots laughing, very gloating, and couldn't help feeling cold.

   When Jia Pingan conquered Liaodong, he captured many Japanese people. After some torture, he found out that there was a gleaming mountain that was left behind. This time, there were five people who followed Tang Xu.

   These five people knew that they would not survive, but they were extremely excited. One of them volunteered, "Please let me do it."

   Tang Xu froze for a moment.

  The interpreter whispered: "General Tang Lang, these people are the scum among the Japanese, and they want to please the Tang Dynasty."

   Tang Xu said noncommittally: "Give them the knife."

  Five Japanese men rushed over with horizontal knives, and their ferocious faces made people feel extremely strange.

"kill!"

  The horizontal knife swung, and blood spattered.

"interesting!"

  Tang Xu found the Japanese really interesting.

   "Mr. Jia said that the Japanese are cruel and cunning, and now it seems to be true."

   Immediately they started looking for a place.

  The sky was beautiful, and after a few heavy rains, it completely cleared up.

  The fleet was sailing slowly not far from the coast.

   Tang Xu finally had some free time, so he sat on the deck and basked in the sun.

"right here!"

  Five Japanese people are arguing about where they are.

   "I don't remember it's here, it should be another day's voyage."

   "No, no, no, we have gone too far, we should turn around and go back."

  The five people argued endlessly, and everyone who heard it was dumbfounded.

   "General Tang Lang, they can't determine the location."

  Zhou Hu sat beside Tang Xu, and said with a sad face: "We've been here for three days, but what we see is green, not to mention flashes. Could it be fake news?"

   "Don't talk nonsense, try both."

   So the fleet moved on.

   A day later, the Japanese who insisted that the flight was still a day away shut up.

   I say!

   Tang Xu murmured a little.

   "One more day."

   So the fleet went forward another day.

  Tang Xu sat on the deck all day looking at the shore.

   can get nothing.

   "Where exactly?"

  The boatmen were a little impatient.

   "General Tang Lang, the food and water we brought are running out."

   Zhou Hu found Tang Xu at night, and whispered his current predicament.

   "Either go ashore to find food and water, or..."

  Either go back.

  Zhou Hu now feels that Yinshan is an unreliable rumor.

  Xiao Jia can't tell lies, right?

Won't!

  If he cheats anyone, he won't cheat me.

   "Keep looking, and also, reduce food distribution, tell everyone, persevere."

  Food began to reduce.

  The soldiers did not complain, and the boatmen also showed their skills to get food from the sea.

   "What a big crab!"

  A huge crab was brought up, and then roasted over fire, Tang Xu shared a large piece of crab meat.

   The taste is really good, fresh and sweet.

  Tang Xu felt relaxed after eating a meal of crab meat.

  But at night he was in a mess.

   When it was dawn, Tang Xu lay down directly.

   "General Tang Lang!"

   On the second day, Tang Xu's cheeks were sunken and he was out of shape.

   "This is caused by eating unclean food."

  The accompanying doctors had seen it, but there was nothing they could do.

   "Drink more water."

   Tang Xu, who was pulling while eating, couldn't get up.

   "General Tang Lang, why don't we go back?"

   Zhou Hu was a little worried that Tang Xu would collapse in this sea area.

   Tang Xu shook his head, breathing weakly, "No, continue!"

  He remembered the ardent hope of Dou Dexuan, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs before departure, and Xiao Jia said that if Datang was rich, what would happen...what would it be?

  He looked at the void, "Ju Tang!"

   On the second day, Tang Xu felt better and insisted on drinking the noodle soup.

   Chrysanthemum is a bit uncomfortable, burning pain.

   But that sense of urgency is dissipating.

   "Yeah... can't die!"

   Tang Xu gritted his teeth and persisted.

   On the sixth day, the fleet still got nothing.

   "General Tang Lang, this piece of land is coming to an end."

   Zhou Hu said worriedly: "There is not much food left."

   This is the shortcoming of not having a supply base.

  Tang Xu shook his head, "Go steal it, go grab it, I can't find the silver mountain... yeah, I won't go back!"

  The accompanying army is conferring.

   At noon, an army of more than a hundred people went ashore.

  The fleet is cruising nearby.

   "They haven't come back yet!"

   Until the afternoon, someone discovered the returning army.

   When more than a hundred people came back, there were actually three wounded.

   Tang Xu asked someone to help him out.

  The sergeants carried all kinds of beasts and many bulging bags.

  The general who led the team reported; "We found the village and were attacked immediately. The three brothers were caught off guard and injured, and then..."

  He smelled of blood.

  Tang Xu looked at the food and asked, "News!"

  The general said: "It will not be revealed."

"very good."

   Tang Xu turned around, "Turn around, let's go back!"

  The boatmen began to turn around with wry smiles.

   Sailing back unsteadily all the way, Tang Xu would send his subordinates ashore to look for food from time to time.

   There are many beasts here, and they can bring back a lot of harvest every time. Occasionally, he will be attacked by Japanese people, and then he will come back with a **** smell.

  There is not too much food on board, but Zhou Hu is always worried.

   "There is not enough food to return."

   That is to say, they will starve to death before seeing the coastline of Datang.

   "There will be."

   Tang Xu smiled.

  He called five Japanese people.

   "Is there a town nearby?"

"have."

   "What are there, how many soldiers are there..."

  After some blending, Tang Xu said comfortably: "Don't worry, there will be no shortage of food for the return flight."

   Half a month later.

  There are still three days' worth of food on board.

   "We have to find a town to loot."

   Tang Xu was very calm.

  Zhou Hu's cheeks twitched, "General Tang Lang, if you encounter a large number of enemy troops..."

   There are only three hundred of us, how can we fight them?

   "Then kill them all."

  Tang Xu said as he got up and walked to the deck.

   Those boatmen are obviously in a bad mood.

  “They have all been in danger and know what food shortages can bring.”

   Zhou Hu smiled wryly: "I was also in danger of running out of food at the beginning. I heard from the old man on the same boat that earlier, when I was short of food, I even ate human flesh."

   Such a tough thing made Tang Xu retch.

   "They are afraid... what will happen if they get to that level."

   Zhou Hu whispered: "When you get there, you won't be allowed to think about anything at all, you just want to live!"

  People will turn into beasts when they wait there... That's why there is such a thing as cannibalism. If you can't bear to eat your own children, then exchange it, I will eat your children, and you will eat my children.

  Tang Xu's eyebrows jumped, and he said in a deep voice: "If there is such a day, eat me first!"

  He turned around and looked at the dumbfounded Zhou Hu, "We are soldiers from the Tang Dynasty, not stragglers. You underestimated the tenacity of your brothers."

  You don't know that kind of despair...so you are being stubborn.

  Zhou Hu looked at the boatmen, everyone was listless.

   "Let's go back." Zhou Hu persuaded again, "Why don't we come again next time. Next time, let's prepare more boats for drinking water."

   Tang Xu was in a daze.

   "General Tang Lang?"

   Zhou Hu felt that the surname Tang was a little inappropriate. For example, when you went to a brothel, those prostitutes would call you Lang, but the name Tang Lang was very spiritual.

  Tang Xu rubbed his eyes, "Um... my eyes are blurred? Come, take a look."

  Zhou Hu turned around slowly and looked up.

  The sun is shining brightly, and a mountain range comes into view.

  The sun just shone from behind and reflected on the mountains.

  The light flickered violently.

   Zhou Hu's eyes were almost blinded.

   He shivered.

"what is that?"

   A group of people turned around slowly.

   "Bring those craftsmen!"

   Tang Xu was howling.

  From departure, these craftsmen are the most honored passengers on board. Before leaving, Jia Pingan explained that they could all die, but these craftsmen must be safe and sound.

  So even in the face of the crisis of food shortage, the artisans can still eat and drink every day, and the bad news is never told to them.

  The best treatment made many people dissatisfied.

  The craftsmen were invited. Just as they got on the deck, one craftsman wondered, "Is there something wrong with my eyes? How can I see the flash?"

   Then he froze.

   Several craftsmen were stunned there.

  What do you mean?

   Did you give me a sentence!

   Tang Xu was anxious, but he didn't dare to offend these uncles.

"oh!"

  The exclamation with a long tail was full of shock.

  An old craftsman rubbed his eyes and said calmly: "I'm afraid I'm blind."

   Tang Xu was disappointed...

   "The old man is blind!"

  The old craftsman bent down and patted his thigh fiercely, "Ah!"

  Amidst the screams, he jumped up in ecstasy, "Damn! Damn! Go ashore, the old man is going to have a look!"

   Tang Xu's heart beat like thunder, "You mean..."

   "That's not the old man who swallowed it in one gulp!"

  All the wrinkles on the old craftsman's happy face were stretched out.

   "It's the mineral vein!"

   "I found a silver mine back then, but it wasn't so shiny at all... This one even shines outside... That means the whole mountain is full of silver and veins, hahahaha!"

   "Leaving a name in history." A craftsman wept and choked up: "If it is verified that it is a silver mine, I will make a name in history."

   "If they are all silver mines... how much can there be?"

   Tang Xu asked with some expectation.

  The old craftsman glanced at him, and said in that unquestionable tone: "It is bigger than any silver mine in Datang."

   "How much bigger?"

  Tang Xu still didn't give up.

   "Countless."

   Tang Xu looked at the other craftsmen.

   "Countless!"

   "Countless!"

  Tang Xu only felt that someone had hit his heart hard. It wasn't a sharp pain, but a floating up.

  He turned around and howled: "Dock, Dock immediately, Yeye will take you to dig the silver mountain!"

  The fleet docked immediately.

  After leaving behind the guards of the fleet, Tang Xu escorted the experts with two hundred sergeants and set off.

   It was a difficult journey, but we got a lot of food supplies.

  When they saw the mountains, the craftsmen didn't care about Tang Xu and the others, and went straight to find the direction and start climbing.

   "Let our people go first!"

   Tang Xu was in a hurry.

   "I don't need to take care of the old man in the mountains." The old craftsman turned back and said, "The old man has been climbing in the mountains these years in search of mineral veins. He has narrowly escaped dozens of times and is still alive."

   Tang Xu said with a dry smile: "Mr. Jia said that if something happens to you, he might be able to skin me alive when you go back."

  The old craftsman was moved, "I have met many officials over the years, but I have never seen a high-ranking official who values ​​craftsmen as much as Duke Jia. I am interested. But you should wait and follow."

   You are weak chickens, don't delay the old man on his way!

   Tang Xu was extremely embarrassed.

   Then there is climbing.

  The craftsmen are relaxed and freehand, but the sergeants are a little embarrassed.

"Coming."

  The old craftsman found a flat place for everyone to rest... At this time, Tang Xu didn't know why the command power fell to the old craftsman.

  Tang Xu was sweating profusely after sitting down, wishing he could take off all his clothes. Seeing that the old craftsman's beard and hair were all white, he asked, "Why is the old man still prospecting for a long time, but aren't his children and grandchildren filial?"

  The old craftsman smiled and said: "My sons and grandchildren are very filial... This old man has already returned to his hometown. I didn't expect Yan Shangshu to say that he wants the best prospecting experts. I don't want to die on the mountain, so I lie on the bed and pretend to be dead..."

His eyes wandered, "Someone told me that it was a silver mine that could reshape the Tang Dynasty. The old man thought about this life... the war in the Sui Dynasty caused the old man's family to be displaced... precarious. The old man has realized a truth. The family did not survive, so the old man came, even if he died on the way..."

  He stood up slowly, beat his lower back with his backhand, "It's worth it!"

   Someone in front shouted: "Here, look here!"

  The old craftsman ran over staggeringly. Under the mountain wall in front of him, a craftsman knelt down, hitting the rock wall with a hammer in his hand, and then picked up a stone and lifted it up...

  Under the sun, the silver-gray ore is shining...

  …

Good night!
