Chapter 196: Eight people are enough to destroy the Japanese
After leaving the fishing village, Gu Xi and Chu Zhao rode their motorcycles straight to Haiping County, where the imperial navy was now stationed.
Although Gu Xi had come to Taizhou Prefecture to distribute grain seeds before, she had only been to Taizhou Prefecture City. The grain seeds were transported and distributed by local officials in the counties below.
Haiping County is located at the easternmost part of Taizhou, far away from the provincial capital, and Japanese pirates are rampant. Most people living on the coast are fishermen, and very few people grow rice, so the Taizhou government did not send grain seeds here.
When they were almost reaching Haiping County, Gu Xi released the eight hundred soldiers. After all, the imperial edict also said that the eight hundred soldiers should follow the imperial teacher to the battle.
Lin Xiaoxuan also came out with the soldiers. He learned how to ride a horse in the space villa. Now he rode on horseback with the majestic eight hundred special forces, and there was no sense of incongruity.
When we arrived outside the city gate, we found it was closed. There were many soldiers patrolling back and forth on the city wall. The whole city had a solemn feeling of being on high alert.
The two men rode to the city with 800 soldiers, holding up the imperial edict in their hands and shouting:
"The Imperial Master has received the imperial decree to suppress the Japanese invaders. Open the city gates immediately!"
Someone on the city wall shouted:
"Just a moment!"
After a while, the city gate did not open, but a rope was lowered from the city wall, and two people slid down the rope one after another.
After the two men landed, they ran to Gu Xi and Chu Zhao and said:
"I am Li Quan, the commander of the anti-Japanese navy. To prevent Japanese pirates and spies, the city gates cannot be easily opened. May I ask who is the imperial master? May I have the imperial edict for your inspection?"
They did report to the court and request support, but the reinforcements arrived much faster than they expected.
Gu Xi took a look at Li Quan, who looked to be about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He had just been seen sliding down the city wall, so he should be quite skilled.
Moreover, he dared to leave the city with only one guard when he was unable to confirm the other party's identity, which shows his extraordinary courage.
Chu Zhao handed the imperial edict to Li Quan and said:
"This is the Imperial Master, I am Chu Zhao from the Northwest Army."
Li Quan read the imperial edict, then looked up at Gu Xi and Chu Zhao, then respectfully returned the imperial edict, clasped his fists and bowed excitedly, saying:
"I have heard about the achievements of the Imperial Master and General Chu in the Turkic War, but I didn't know that the Imperial Master was so young. The court is able to send you two here, so I think the threat of the Japanese pirates will surely be resolved."
Li Quan was also a rather proud general with some skills. He was able to deal with the Japanese pirates along the coastal areas with ease.
But this year, for some unknown reason, the number of Japanese pirates increased by tens of thousands, almost three times the number of the navy that was fighting against them, so he was unable to cope with the situation.
He had heard of Chu Zhao's name before. They were all generals of the younger generation, but he had never taken them seriously before. He only thought that Chu Zhao became a general by relying on his family background.
Until a few days ago, when he heard that Chu Zhao and Qi Dasheng had destroyed the Turks in just over a month, he had to admit defeat and even admired these two people very much.
"I will order the city gates to be opened and invite the Imperial Master and General Chu to enter the city."
Gu Xi got off the horse and said:
"General Li, there is no need to bother. Our teacher has heard that many women have been abducted by the Japanese pirates. We can't delay any longer. We will set off immediately. We came here just to learn about the situation of the Japanese pirates."
If Gu Xi brought so many people into the city and discussed things, another day would probably pass. Since he had met Li Quan at the city gate, he might as well get to know the situation here and set off immediately to destroy one wave of Japanese pirates today.
Li Quan didn't expect the Imperial Master to be so impatient. How could he discuss the military situation in public? Wasn't he afraid of leaking secrets?
He looked at the soldiers behind the Imperial Master, hesitated for a moment, and said:
"National Master, General Chu, can you please spare me a moment to talk?"
Gu Xi was not afraid of leaking the secret. Even if there were really Japanese pirates spies nearby, Gu Xi would probably have destroyed their lair before he could send back the news.
But he still cooperated and walked a few dozen meters to the side. After making sure that others could not hear the conversation here, Li Quan took out a map from his sleeve.
I didn’t expect this guy even carried a map with him!
Judging from the degree of damage on the map, it was obvious that Li Quan had studied it a lot.
"Master, General Chu, please take a look. I have also planted spies before. There are Japanese pirates stationed on these small islands that have been circled. The number of Japanese pirates on each island ranges from 5,000 to 20,000. I have marked them all."
Gu Xi took a look and saw that there were indeed a lot of words densely written on the map, so he took out his mobile phone and took a picture of it.
Li Quan looked at the thing in the Imperial Master's hand in surprise. Gu Xi was unwilling to explain, so he put away his phone and asked:
"General Li, do you know where those abducted people are being held? Are they with the Japanese pirates?"
If they were held in solitary confinement on a small island, she could rescue them and then directly send fighter jets to bomb other islands. No matter how many tens of thousands of people there were, it would just be a matter of buying a few more bombs.
Li Quandao:
"They not only abducted women, but also some men to do hard labor. They were on every island. They were not detained in solitary confinement because there was no boat and no way to escape."
This is a bit tricky. Bombs attack indiscriminately and may even kill their own people.
Although the eight hundred special forces were very brave and she had enough guns and ammunition, with eight hundred against tens of thousands, casualties were inevitable.
Gu Xi pointed to a large blank area at the edge of the map and asked:
"General Li drew a blank here. This must be the pirates' lair, right? Did all these pirates come from this place?"
If I'm not mistaken, the blank area circled by Li Quan should be the Devil Country.
Li Quan admired:
"The Imperial Master is very accurate in his predictions. I have interrogated a Japanese pirate captive before, and this place was also painted according to his confession. However, I have never been here, so I drew a blank."
"Okay, I understand. You should immediately gather the navy to station along the coast and wait for support." Gu Xi said.
Li Quan was stunned. How could he be the backup? Shouldn't he be the vanguard?
"National Master, aren't you here to lead the navy to suppress the Japanese?"
Gu Xi said:
"The National Division has brought 800 soldiers, which is enough. You will lead the troops to station at the seaside until I rescue the people. I need you to settle them. The National Division will leave two signal soldiers for you. If there is any news, the National Division will send a message to them."
Li Quan was even more shocked, his tongue was a little tied:
"Then I will arrange a ship to send the Imperial Master out to sea."
He had heard that the Imperial Master and Chu Zhao had led only a thousand soldiers deep into the Turkic capital, and he thought it was just an exaggeration by the storyteller. Now it seems that the more skilled, the more daring.
"No need. Our master has his own way to go out to sea. You can take people to the seaside pier to meet him as soon as possible."
Gu Xi had never seen the warships of An Ning Kingdom, but he had never even been to Guizi Kingdom, which showed that the ships were not very good, probably just at the level of fishing boats.
After thinking about it, Gu Xi's consciousness entered the Wanhuo Mall and searched, but did not find the aircraft carrier. It seems that the Wanhuo Mall does not have everything.
