Chapter 242 at a loss
Yu Xiaotian shook his head and said, "Don't worry about this. Chu Cailao won't do much. Our biggest advantage is that the firepower within dozens of steps outside the wall is far more than Chu Cailao. Even if they approach, they will still pay a big price under the wall.
What's more, we have wall protection, and we have this kind of sharp weapon, so we don't have to worry too much! Today, iron craftsmen began to resume work and went all out to make bamboo shells* and iron shells* to supplement consumption! As long as they dare to come over, smash them hard! They don't have any good ideas about this!"
With Yu Xiaotian's footsteps, Liu Laoliu still couldn't help asking Xiaotian anxiously: "Xiaotian, at present, the big guys are not very worried about Chu Cai's strong attack on the fortress. There is a wall and our killers. I don't understand that Chu Cai can do anything about us, but just want to die!
But now the brothers are worried about the fleet! According to your previous arrangement, the fleet should have returned early this morning, but so far there has been no news from the fleet. We are worried about whether something has happened to the fleet?
Yu Xiaotian stopped and waved his hand to let the unrelated people nearby retreat. He turned around and looked at Liu Laoliu, Li Dazui and others who followed him, and saw that their faces were full of worry.
So Yu Xiaotian smiled calmly and said, "Don't worry too much about this! Isn't it less than a day late? Everything may happen to this war, and your worries are right, but it doesn't have much impact on us!
I believe in Wang Hong and Ma Xiao. Maybe they have encountered some trouble, but I believe they will definitely come back! It's just that it may be delayed!
It is impossible for everything in the world to be in our calculations, and it is inevitable that there will be a small mistake!
What's more, not only Wang Hong and Ma Xiao are on the side of the fleet, but now Liu Yidao has also passed. With a few of them, there should be no big deal, so even if you encounter some trouble and delay for a day or two, it is really normal! Don't worry!
What's more, we have sufficient supplies here. Even if we last for a month, we won't have the worry of ran out of food! What are you worried about?"
After listening to Yu Xiaotian's words, the expressions on Liu Laoliu and others' faces relaxed a little, and then nodded and said yes. Think about it, although there is no Yu Xiaotian in the fleet, there are Wang Hong, Ma Xiao, and a Liu Yidao. These people can be said to be loyal to Xiaotian, and they should not What's the big deal?
So they put down this idea for the time being and began to prepare to deal with today's strong attack.
After dawn, Mr. Chu Cai once again commanded his subordinates to launch a fierce attack on the Sea Wolf Village. Mr. Chu Mr. Cai changed some tactics this time, prepared more shields and shields for his men, and let his men carry them to attack the village.
At the same time, he asked many of his men to carry all kinds of miscellaneous guns within a hundred steps outside the sea wolf village, build some bunkers with sandbags on the spot, put these cannons in the bunker, and keep shelling the sea wolf village.
Even this time, Mr. Chu Cai also got a lot of gunpowder, put it in several large wooden boxes, and let his men carry it to attack under the sea wolf village, lighting gunpowder to try to blow down the wall of the village.
On this day, Chu Cai thought of almost all the ways he could think of, and even did play a role. He opened another section of the fortress wall with his heavy cannon and gunpowder.
However, after the previous experience, the response of the sea wolf has become much more skillful, with attack and defense, and the two sides are very fierce. Moreover, the sea wolf does have a great advantage in firepower, always controlling the initiative of the battlefield and causing a lot of casualties for Mr. Chu Cai's men.
When the wall of Dazhai was in danger several times, with the efforts of the people and islanders in the middle of the village, the wall was re-stabilized and never allowed Chu Cai to survive.
Even before dark in the afternoon, Yu Xiaotian also organized a counterattack and sent more than 100 dead soldiers to take advantage of an opportunity to repel Chu Cai's attack. He suddenly opened the fortress and killed the village and launched an unexpected counterattack against Chu Cailao's men.
As a result, Chu Cai's old man did not expect that the sea wolf would do such a crazy thing at this time. Unexpectedly, he was beaten again.
After killing the 100 sea wolf soldiers, they killed and injured many of Chu Cailao's men, and then withdrew from the village without stopping.
Chu Cai was old-fashioned and furious. She ordered her men to follow her to try to seize the village door, but before they chased them under the village door, she was hit by a row of guns and was knocked over by a group of people. Even if some people finally rushed to the village gate, the village gate was closed at this time to welcome them. It was a bucket of boiling oil and boiling water, which was mixed with two kinds*, so that they had to calm down and end the day's war.
After this day's fierce battle, both sides were exhausted again and paid a lot of price. After nightfall, the sea wolf sent people to light a lot of bonfires and hot pots a hundred steps outside the stockade, illuminating the distance within 200 steps outside the village, which caused great trouble for Chu Cai's old night attack. .
In the middle of the night, Chu Cailao once again repeated his old skills and launched a night attack on the sea wolf, but this time Chu Cailao did not attack Dazhai, but launched a night attack on the commercial stack area that he had not attacked for two or three days.
In the past two days, Meng Fei was depressed to death in the business stack area. Every day, he stared at Chu Cailao's attack on Dazhai again and again, but he could only use their limited cannons to fire at Chu Cailao's men far away.
This time, Chu Cai attacked the business warehouse area at night. Meng Fei had been waiting for them with his men. It was not Meng Fei's foresight, but after he learned the lesson from Dazhai the night before yesterday, he was extremely strict in the business stack area at night. All the departments could not take off their clothes, the guns were not left their hands, and the knife handle should be held at any time. To deal with the sneak attack of old Chu Cai.
When Chu Cailao began to sneak up on the business stack area in the middle of the night and were found by them, Meng Fei took the subordinates in the business stack area and began to fight with them crazily. The two sides fought fiercely for an hour. Chu Cailao couldn't get off the business stack area, so he had to stop the army again.
After collecting troops in the second half of the night, Mr. Chu Cai sat in his tent and was really depressed. He led his troops to stir up the public and rushed to Nanri Island. It was the fourth day. It was the fifth day at dawn, but after these four days, in addition to spending thousands of silver, he also had to bear his men. The money consumed a lot of ammunition and food, and paid the price of more than 1,000 casualties, but there was not even a harvest.
This trip when he comes to Nanri Island, if he goes like this, it can be said to be a complete loss. Usually, if they go ashore and attack some Zhaibao counties, if they don't attack, at least they can still attack the surrounding area before leaving. At least they will not lose money in the end.
But now when he came to Nanri Island, he found that if he couldn't get rid of the sea wolf's village, he would not even have a chance to repay the capital. In the past few days, he sent people to search all the villages on the island, and could hardly find anything useful except empty houses.
Generally, they go out to do business. Rarely, when they prepare enough grain, they rob them on the spot and rely on grabbing to meet their consumption. However, here in Nanri Island, sea wolves brought them a strong wall and clear field in advance and left almost nothing for them. They want to find something to eat. You can only find a way to dig around like a mouse. If you are lucky, you can find something to eat. If you are unlucky, you can only dig out a mouse.
He has completely realized the power of the sea wolf. This smart craftsman who didn't know where the sea wolf got it. In such a short time, he actually got out so many sharp firearms, cannons, *, and the kind of thunder that exploded when landing. Every time he sent people to attack him, he was used by the sea wolf. Some things ran back with hail-like corpses.
Now even he is about to lose confidence. This sea wolf village is simply a hard bone that can't be gnawed, which has broken a few of his teeth. Now he dares not lie to himself anymore and can capture the sea wolf's fortress.
Old Chu Cai sat in the big tent and sighed and was extremely depressed. Although it was almost dawn at this time, he was still not sleepy at all.
Even Master Zhou lowered his head in frustration and sat with him in the big tent, but now his sleepy upper eyelids hit his eyelids straight down.
"Master Zhou! In this situation, what do you think we should do? Chu Cai had no choice, so he asked Master Zhou, who was sitting beside him.
Master Zhou quickly replied, "This... let me think about it a little!"
With that, Master Zhou stood up and walked a few steps in the tent. He cheered up and said to Mr. Chu Cai after thinking about it, "This time we came here, we didn't expect the sea wolves to be so good at fighting, and their guns were so sharp that we didn't expect!
Now in the three days, the brothers have suffered heavy casualties, and their morale is not as good as when they first came, which is also a fact!
But now it is definitely not the best way to retreat, otherwise it will be a big blow to the reputation of the big shopkeeper! But if we don't retreat, it's not easy for us to take down the sea wolf's village!"
Old Chu Cai's eyelids turned over and gave Master Zhou a white eye. He thought that these words were all nonsense. Needless to say, he could figure it out, so he asked in a muffled voice, "These old men understand! Now I'm asking you what to do! Can we find a way to take down this village surnamed Yu! What should we do if we can't take it?"
(Thank you again for the reward of the snoring brothers!)
