Zhang Jinglin let the soldier who didn’t speak Japanese follow Su Qing. He led another subordinate who knew Japanese in front. His hand never left the hilt of his sword.
If necessary, he would risk his life to protect the Empress.
Su Qing sat calmly on the chair. This was the first time she had set foot on Japan’s territory. She sat on the chair and looked around with a sharp gaze.
After they got off the boat, a carriage came to pick them up. They still had to walk a long way to the palace. The Crown Prince sent the carriage. Although he doted on Lanting, Lanting’s status was low, and she was not worthy of him coming to welcome her personally.
Su Qing looked at the surroundings. It should be a naval base in Japan. There were more than ten ships docked at the dock, all about the same size as the ship she was on.
Su Qing had two ideas now. One was to snatch these ships and leave, and the other was to stay in Japan and turn them upside down.
Zhang Jinglin turned around to look at Su Qing. There were hundreds of Japanese pirates around. It would be challenging to take the ship with just a dozen.
However, at least they still had a chance. If they went deep into the capital of Japan, it would be tough for them to return.
“Miss Lanting, the Crown Prince wants to carry Qin Tie over.”
A man who looked like a Japanese official came over to talk to Lanting. Her identity in Japan was not a princess but a famous geisha. Therefore, the official was not too polite to her.
The Crown Prince did not want to see Lanting but wanted to see Qin Tie. It could be seen that Lanting was a plaything in his heart. This also indirectly showed that the Crown Prince was a warmonger.
Qin Tie had been captured to make mortars in preparation for the attack on the Great Tang.
“The Emperor of the Great Tang took him away, and we almost lost our lives.”
Su Qing replied calmly. She had thought it through. She couldn’t enter the capital of Japan. She would first snatch the ship. There were hundreds of Japanese pirates at the dock, and they were probably all navy soldiers. If she destroyed them and snatched the ship, Japan would be significantly weakened and wouldn’t be a threat for the time being.
“Snatched?”
The official who came to pick Qin Tie up was very unhappy. His face immediately darkened.
“Miss Lanting, you messed up the marriage, and Qin Tie was snatched away. The Crown Prince will be very unhappy if he knows.”
“I’m not happy either.”
Su Qing looked at him and said coldly. The official frowned immediately,
“Alright, Lanting, wait for the Crown Prince’s punishment!”
After he finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left. Su Qing looked at his back and smiled slightly. The Crown Prince would be even more unhappy later.
The officials who came to pick up the ship left. The pirates on the shore looked at each other. They couldn’t let Miss Lanting stay here, so they sent her to the courier station where the officials would be received.
The official who received the ship also lived here. The relay station was made of wood, and the creaking sound of walking on it was very unpleasant.
The men and women here liked to wear clogs, so their footsteps were even louder.
Su Qing was arranged to stay on the second floor, while Zhang Jinglin and the dozen soldiers were arranged to stay downstairs. So far, no one has discovered that they had been switched.
This was also the advantage of the night. Under the torch, it was not as easy to identify as during the day. In addition, the official who received the ship was furious and did not look closely. Otherwise, he would be suspicious when he saw Su Qing’s big belly.
The moon was deep, and it was the darkest time before dawn. The Japanese soldiers on the island did not know that danger had arrived. With the sea as a barrier, their vigilance was not too high. The Japanese pirates in charge of keeping watch were hugging their weapons and standing up to sleep.
Su Qing pushed open the door and walked out of the room. She heard the Japanese pirates mention the room where the official lived. She went to kill him first.
This arrogant little official met the King of Hell in a defenseless state.
After Su Qing cleared the second floor, she looked downstairs for Zhang Jinglin. As soon as she went downstairs, she saw a black shadow. When she found the black shadow, he also found her. Su Qing was about to end his life with a sleeve of arrows when she heard the other party call out to her in a low voice,
“Master, it’s me.”
It was Zhang Jinglin!
“Where are you going?”
Su Qing went downstairs. He had killed everyone upstairs. Only Zhang Jinglin and the others lived on the first floor, so he did not have to worry about being discovered.
“I want to go out and scout.”
Zhang Jinglin told her the truth. He was uncomfortable living there and wanted to figure out the terrain and find a good retreat route.
“Wake everyone up and prepare to snatch the ship.”
Su Qing ordered him to call for reinforcements while he asked Xiao Qi to move the mortars and cannonballs out of the system. There were two mortars and ten cannonballs, which was enough to wipe out the Japanese soldiers guarding the dock.
Zhang Jinglin called his men out and saw the two mortars Su Qing had placed on the ground. The corners of his mouth twitched. It was not the first time he had seen the Empress take something out of thin air. He was already used to it.
“Move it up and find a high point.”
Su Qing ordered Zhang Jinglin and the others to leave the relay station first and kill the station chief, who was on night duty.
Zhang Jinglin quickly ordered the soldiers to carry the mortars and shells and follow the Empress. The night was the best cover. Su Qing made her way to the dock based on her memory.
On the sea, Zhong Yong led his soldiers and a few experienced fishermen to row with incredible difficulty. These fishermen were all good men who fought against the Japanese pirates. The reason why they were not worried that they were spies was because their families had all died at the hands of the Japanese pirates.
They were not afraid of death as long as they could avenge their loved ones.
When they heard that the imperial court would take care of Japan, these fishermen were very excited. They had heard the story of the current emperor and wanted to submit to him. Since they no longer had any relatives to worry about, they would follow him and make contributions!
One of the old fishermen was very experienced. He had accidentally entered the waters of the East Ocean, so he was familiar with this place. Even though Su Qing’s boat had left them behind, the old fisherman still sent these soldiers of the Tang Empire over based on his memory. Zhong Yong looked at the dark sea and became anxious. If his master were in danger, he would be ashamed to live.
“Hurry up, hurry up.”
Zhong Yong kept urging him. The old fisherman sighed.
“You can’t tell north from south at night. There are hidden reefs in this sea area. If you don’t do well, you might break the bottom of the boat.”
While Zhong Yong was rushing towards Japan, Su Qing and Zhang Jinglin found a vantage point aimed at the military camp.
Setting up the mortars and making preparations, they were outnumbered. So, they had to clear out most of them before seizing the ship.
Su Qing took out her binoculars and took a look. The dock was brightly lit, and it was too easy to find the attack point.
“Fire to the left.”
Su Qing pointed toward the military camp and ordered Zhang Jinglin. The pirates who were still sleeping were in trouble. With two explosions, the military camp turned into a sea of fire.
Those who were not killed by the explosion ran out of the tent in flames and rolled back and forth on the ground. Their shrill cries sounded very terrifying in the night.
“Continue blasting, three o’clock on the left.”
Su Qing used her binoculars to command Zhang Jinglin and the others to fire. In the Imperial Palace of Japan, the Crown Prince was still waiting for Qin Tie. He was ambitious and wanted to create a great killing weapon quickly. With a powerful weapon, he could enter the Central Plains and expand his territory.
Just as he was anxiously waiting, he heard the earth-shattering sound of
cannons..
