Chapter 197 Open the city gates and welcome the King of Jin
Lin Fengxiang didn't even have time to put on his armor. He grabbed the ring-shaped sword and helmet placed on the desk, put it on his head, and ordered loudly:
"Come here, please pass this general's order to close all the gates of Jiaozhou City. All the Japanese soldiers in the city will go to the city. All the young and strong people in the city will go to the city. Open the armory to distribute weapons to the people who come to the city to help in the battle!"
"If the Japanese pirates are allowed to break through the city, no one, male, female, old or young, will be able to survive in this huge Jiaozhou City!"
"Yes, General!"
The messenger immediately accepted the order. Before he could leave, Jiaozhou garrison Lin Fengxiang said again: "Send someone to Jinan Mansion immediately..."

When the words came to his lips, Lin Fengxiang swallowed them back.
His original intention was to immediately send eight hundred miles to Jinan Prefecture to report the military situation and request Jinan Prefecture to send reinforcements for reinforcements.
But then I thought about it, Jinan Prefecture was captured by the Longcheng rebels of the traitor Chen Huaian a month ago, so how could any reinforcements be sent to reinforce Jiaozhou City.
Lin Fengxiang's expression froze, and he said with some choking: "Forget it, there will be no reinforcements!"
"Send the order and tell the Japanese soldiers in Jiaozhou City that the time has come to sacrifice their lives for the country and to be loyal to the country. If you die, you must die on the city wall!"
"The general will get the order!"
This time, the messenger finally received all the military orders from the garrison general Lin Fengxiang and hurriedly rode out of the garrison mansion.
It was only then that Lin Fengxiang's soldiers sent his armor over and took the initiative to put on the armor for the general.
Lin Fengxiang's war horse was also led outside the gate of the garrison, snoring suddenly and raising its front hooves.
After finishing the dressing, Lin Fengxiang got on his horse, holding the Huanshou knife tied around his waist tightly. He looked back at the plaque of Jiaozhou garrison for the last time, and then resolutely rode away, heading straight for the Jiaozhou city wall.
Following the order from Jiaozhou garrison Lin Fengxiang, the entire Jiaozhou city suddenly roared with wind, cranes, and soldiers. Countless young men and women in the city rushed to the top of the city with their wives, children, and parents seeing each other off with tears in their eyes.
At this moment, their identity is no longer whose son, whose husband, whose father;
Rather, they are the warriors of the Han nation who bravely fought against the Japanese pirates in Jiaozhou City!
Unitary hour.
On the ancient wall of Jiaozhou City, Lin Fengxiang, the Jiaozhou garrison wearing armor and sword, personally sat at the head of the city. Every crenellation on the wall was guarded by Japanese soldiers wearing cloth armor and cotton armor, holding swords, guns and crossbows;
Then, there were the young men in the city who came to the city in plain clothes to help in the battle. A few of them held official weapons in their hands, but most of them only had hoes, sickles, nine-tooth rakes and other handy agricultural tools in their hands.
It is easy to tell from their fearless expressions that this is not the first time they have gone to the city to help in a battle;
Come to think of it, after the 200,000 Japanese soldiers destroyed Tumubao, these coastal cities with no military strength must have been harassed and invaded by Japanese pirates.
"Report——"
"General, the enemy, a large number of enemies are heading towards Jiaozhou City!"
Suddenly, a loud announcement from the Japanese scouts came from the city wall.
As soon as these words came out, the soldiers and civilians guarding the city on the city wall immediately felt nervous, and they all looked out of the city in unison.
Guard Lin Fengxiang's eyes were naturally attracted by the dark figure that appeared in his field of vision.
hiss--
After a quick glance, Lin Fengxiang couldn't help but take a breath. There were too many "pirates" appearing in the field of vision of him and the soldiers and civilians on the city wall!
Surprisingly, there are also cavalry!
This group of pirates is extraordinary!
Lin Fengxiang pulled out his sword, stared at the Japanese pirate army that was approaching Jiaozhou City, and shouted: "Prepare Japanese soldiers, prepare for war!"
"Prepare for war!"
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Woo——
Soon, the sound of deep and heavy drums and the sound of desolate horns could be heard inside and outside the walls of the ancient Jiaozhou City.
Facing the "pirate" army pressing down on the territory, a chilling atmosphere filled the air both inside and outside the city walls. The oppressive pre-war atmosphere began to make the soldiers and civilians on the city walls look solemn and fearful.
Facing a large number of well-equipped "pirates", today's battle in Jiaozhou will probably be a disaster!
Kick, kick, kick!
Kick, kick, kick!
At this moment, the "pirate" cavalry who appeared outside Jiaozhou City began to urge the war horses under their crotches to accelerate and sprint. The iron hoofs of the war horses hit the ground, and the sound and vibration they made were like dull thunder.
When they were more than a thousand steps away from Jiaozhou City, this group of "pirate" cavalry suddenly raised their flags.
Accompanied by bursts of brushing sounds, flags with scarlet faces and four-clawed yellow dragon flags with a big word "Jin" written on them whistled in the wind on the galloping horses.
"General, they, they don't seem to be pirates!"
"The flag they are flying is the Jinwang flag of the Great New Dynasty!"
On the city wall, there were sharp-eyed and literate defenders. After seeing the flags raised by the cavalry outside the city, they immediately reported to Jiaozhou garrison Lin Fengxiang with exclaims.
Lin Fengxiang, who was standing on the city tower, naturally recognized the Jinwang flag raised by the cavalry outside the city.
For a moment, Lin Fengxiang just felt that his brain was a little weak.
Didn't Jin King Chen Huaian's Longcheng rebels just attack Jinan Prefecture?
I have never heard of the Dragon City rebels. When will there be an additional navy army!
So what happened to the naval troops who landed at Qin Port under the banner of King Jin?
At this time, Lin Fengxiang could basically confirm that the naval force that appeared outside Jiaozhou City was definitely not a Japanese pirate disguised as a pirate.
It is absolutely impossible for those uncivilized savage rogues on the Japanese islands to have such sophisticated equipment.
As the cavalry continued to approach Jiaozhou City, Lin Fengxiang could already recognize the armor worn by the cavalry. They were all Mingguang armors that only generals above the Qianzong in the New Dynasty army were qualified to wear.
This cavalry, even the ordinary soldiers are all equipped with golden light armor, which is simply unbelievable.
Could it be that this cavalry is the legendary Jin Wuwei, the imperial guard of Jin King Chen Huaian?
Lin Fengxiang was thinking wildly, and even a thin layer of sweat began to appear on his forehead. After he roughly guessed the identity of the person, he hurriedly ordered loudly:
"The order goes down. Without the order of this general, no one is allowed to launch an attack without permission. Anyone who disobeys the order will be punished without mercy!"
"The general will get the order!"
Here, Jiaozhou guard Lin Fengxiang had just finished speaking.
Outside the city, a group of cavalry wearing golden armor, led by Xiao Po, the commander of the Jinwu Guards, arrived at a place 200 steps away from the foot of Jiaozhou City.
After reining in his horses, Xiao Po immediately shouted to the Jiaozhou city wall at the top of his lungs: "Who is on duty on the city wall?"
"This general is Xiao Po, the commander of the Jinwu Guard under King Jin. I have come here to call the door on King Jin's order. Why don't you open the city gate quickly and kneel down to welcome His Highness King Jin?"
