Rebirth of The Deer and the Cauldron, Wei Xiaobao Becomes a God

Chapter 81: Marching into the Shiyu Mountains (2)

Wei Xiaobao looked at Shuang'er beside him again, wondering if her martial arts skills had improved after drinking ginseng chicken soup for so long.

【Wei Shuang'er】

【Gender: Female】

【Age: 19】

【Cultivation: Martial Master (Yuan Man)】

[Skills: Huashan Swordsmanship (minor success), Acupoint Pressing (minor success), Hunyuan Palm (minor success), Swift Wind Footwork (minor success)]

[Condition: Normal]

The cultivation level is the same as the last time I checked.

In fact, what Wei Xiaobao didn't know was that Shuang'er had just been promoted to the Perfect Martial Master realm last time, but this time she had already consolidated to the peak of the Perfect Martial Master realm and was moving towards becoming a Martial Master.

The thousand-year-old ginseng chicken soup and the alchemy furnace have made great contributions.

Looking at his own meridians again, Wei Xiaobao found that there were fewer annoying bumps on his meridians, and in some places he could see the meridian stripes. This was a big improvement, and it seemed that drinking ginseng chicken soup was really effective.

The next day, just after dawn, the enemy camp had finished breakfast, broke camp, and the entire army set out.

Captain Tang sent out scouts to march ten miles forward, and the army moved forward slowly.

At nine o'clock in the morning, scouts reported that a copper mining area was discovered ahead.

There were 300 Tokugawa soldiers stationed in the mining area and more than 2,000 miners.

The scout gave the hand-drawn sketch to Captain Tang.

The sketch marked that the copper mine was divided into a living area and a mining area. The mining area was located halfway up a mountain, with five mine entrances and a sentry post at each entrance. There were about ten people at each sentry post, and if there were two shifts, there would be a team of 100 people in the mining area.

The living area is located in the valley at the foot of the mountain. It is a flat plain with an area of ​​about two square kilometers. There are garrison barracks, miners' sheds and living service areas. There are two teams of 2 people stationed in the barracks.

Captain Tang consulted Ishikawa Daishan about the origins of these miners.

These miners come from three sources:

First, the criminals declared by the Tokugawa shogunate were people who opposed the Tokugawa shogunate and violated the laws issued by the Tokugawa shogunate.

The second group is: the daimyo of Po County whom the Tokugawa shogunate conquered, the prisoners captured by the army, and the noble families and commoners who were enslaved in the war zone.

The third is to lure civilians with high salaries.

When these miners arrived at the mining area, no matter what their previous identities were, they all became slaves, including their descendants who reproduced here. They were all slaves and mined in the Shiyu Mountains for generations.

"Where there is oppression, there will be resistance." Captain Tang remembered what Commander Wei had said.

He thought that if these miners could be used well, they would become the most determined force to overthrow the tyranny of the Tokugawa shogunate.

Then you need to try to reduce the losses of miners in the battle.

This mining area cannot be bombarded. If we use bombardment, firstly, it will injure innocent miners, and secondly, it will cause the mine to collapse, and Commander Wei will scold us.

Then use traditional tactics and challenge.

Who to send?

Captain Tang thought about it and felt that the Princess Guard was the most suitable team, but he was afraid that they would be obsessed with Bushido and become stupid and always want to fight to the death. So he decided to give this guard a lecture to curb their Bushido evil spirit.

After a while, the drooling yellow machine, who had received the training order, gathered the guards.

Captain Tang stood in front of the princess's guards and said, "You are the royal guards of the Japanese Empire, the guards of Princess Ling Zhao. You are well-equipped and are the pride of all Japanese armies!"

The Oda Squadron, Takeda House Squadron, and Uesugi House Squadron who were receiving training all puffed out their chests. What the commander said touched their hearts.

Before I could feel happy enough, I heard Captain Tang say:

"However, judging from yesterday's battle, you are not real soldiers. You are just a bunch of reckless men and village women, fools who only know how to act recklessly.

Instead of using their sophisticated weapons, they just rush forward to fight with knives.

Is your life so worthless?

From the day you joined the Royal Guards Princess Guard, your life is no longer your own, but belongs to the royal family and Princess Ling Zhao!

Anyone who disobeys military orders, acts without authorization, or dares to show off his samurai code, must immediately take off this military uniform, get out of the Royal Guards, and get out of the Princess' Guards!"

After Captain Tang's reprimand, the 300 guards dared not say a word. If this commander really fired them, they and their families would be dead soon.

"Each squadron, please express your stance!" Tang Li requested.

"On behalf of the Takeda Squadron, I will resolutely obey the orders of my superiors and will never act impulsively!" Big Foot Jiro said loudly.

"On behalf of the Oda Squadron, I will resolutely obey the orders of my superiors and will never act on my own." Drool Yellow Machine stated.

"On behalf of the Uesugi Squadron, I will resolutely obey the orders of the superiors and follow their commands and will never disobey them." Yamazu Feida expressed his attitude.

"Okay, remember your statement." Tang Li looked at the other members of the princess's guards and said:

"Now I order the Royal Guards Princess Lingzhao's Guards to form a squadron of 100 people and advance towards the copper mining area to launch a military attack."

The military formation attack means marching in formation, marching to the beat of the drum.

When reaching the firing range, the queue automatically stands in three horizontal rows, the first row squats, the second and third rows cross forward, and the three rows keep firing at all times. This is a military formation attack.

Then, the guards flew the flag of the Royal Guards and marched towards the copper mining area.

When they reached 1000 meters, drum beats sounded, and the three squadrons followed the drum beats and advanced in parallel to the gate of the copper mine living area and stopped 300 meters away.

At this time, the Tokugawa family defenders of the copper mine saw an army of 300 people coming to the beat of drums. At first they thought that the captain who was changing guard was joking, but when they saw clearly that this team was flying the flag of the Royal Guards, their brain circuits were suddenly insufficient.

This troop wore shiny black helmets and yellow leather helmets that belonged only to the royal guards. Each of them held an unknown crossbow in his hand and had a samurai sword on his waist that had never been seen before.

The troops were well-organized and their morale was high; it was obvious at first glance that they were an elite force.

But no matter what the other side did, the captain stationed at the copper mine immediately gathered his troops, stood at the gate of the mining area, and was in a stalemate with this unidentified team.

"What are you doing here? Why are you running to our mining area?" the Tokugawa army captain shouted.

"Jiuoosute Kousan Auntie (surrender your weapons but don't kill you)" the drooling yellow chicken shouted loudly.

"Jiu-oh-sute, Kou-san auntie (surrender without killing)"

"Jiu-oh-sute, Kou-san auntie (surrender without killing)"

……

The soldiers of the entire guard team repeated the shout in unison, with great momentum.

"Nani." The other party did not reply, but just shouted to surrender and not kill. The captain also did not understand how to deal with this situation.

When the miners in the living quarters saw the army outside the gate flying the flag of the Royal Guards, their expressions varied. Some were excited, some were numb, and some burst into tears. The brave ones ran to the area near the barracks door to watch, while the timid ones hid in the house and watched through the doors and windows.
