Chapter 700, a one-sided war

"Ready, aim~"

"Fire~"

Outside the city of Tokyo, the Ming army wearing steel helmets, armor, muskets, and swords pinned to their waists lined up in a neat line, following the command's order, billowing white smoke rose, and dense gunfire like fried beans rang out.

The Annan army, which rushed out of the city, fell head-on to the front like a wave of wheat bending down in the wind.

Round after round of volleys, like the sickle of death, harvested the Annan army that rushed out.

Overhead, the cannonballs were still whistling towards the city of Tokyo, and the entire city of Tokyo was about to be flattened by the dense artillery fire.

"Bang~Bang~"

With the continuous sound of dense gunfire, the Annan troops who rushed out suffered heavy casualties in a blink of an eye, and it looked as if the turbulent waves hit the reef by the sea, and they were smashed to pieces.

Soon he retreated into the city in fear, not daring to engage the Ming army head-on.

It's too bullying.

This is not a war at all, but a one-sided crushing, the muskets of the Ming army are really terrible, under the intensive musket fire, the Annan army can not even rush to the distance of a hundred steps of the Ming army.

No matter how far away, even if it is to attack the Ming army with a bow and arrow, it is difficult to cause any damage to the Ming army, not to mention that the Ming army is still wearing armor and steel helmets, at such a distance, the kinetic energy of the bow and arrow is exhausted, and it can't hurt anyone at all.

"Step~Step~"

The Annan army withdrew to the city, but the Ming army began to march towards the city with neat steps.

"Hold, Hold~"

"Shut the gates, close the gates."

On the city wall, Li Hui, the king of Annan, looked at the Ming army that was oppressing, and the whole person couldn't help but shout.

But before he could finish his words, more than a dozen shells whizzed towards his position.

"Protect the king~"

Wu Qiong, the right minister, immediately shouted, and the guards around him raised their thick shields one after another, but no matter how thick the shield was, it was useless in the face of this kind of cannonball carrying terrifying kinetic energy.

"Boom~"

With a loud noise, the area where Li Hui and the others were located was a blur of flesh and blood, and Li Hui's whole person was torn apart by the cannonballs, and the flesh and blood were blurred.

"The king is dead~"

"The king is dead~"

I don't know who shouted, and suddenly the Annan troops on the city wall looked over, and they were all dumbfounded, as if they had lost their backbone, and they were sluggish.

"Bang~"

"Bang~"

It's just that before they came to their senses, under the city wall, the Ming army had already arrived, but they did not rush to attack the city, but began to use muskets to suppress the Annan army on the city wall.

With the sound of dense gunfire, a large number of people suddenly fell on the city wall, the crowd was too dense, and the small city of Tokyo gathered the troops of the entire Annam country at this time.

They originally wanted to fight the Ming army on this city wall to the end, but who knew that the Ming army had no intention of fighting with them at all, but just used the advantages of artillery and muskets to continue to harvest, and did not even have the intention of rushing into the city.

You must know that at this time, the city gate has been smashed by artillery, the city gate is wide open, and the Ming army can easily rush in and take down the city of Tokyo, but the Ming army did not.

Their purpose does not seem to be to occupy the city of Tokyo, but to destroy them.

In the rear of the Ming army, 5,000 Japanese warriors and 5,000 Korean warriors witnessed the battle with their own eyes, and witnessed that the Annam army did not have the slightest resistance under artillery attack.

Under such terrible artillery and musket attacks, even if the sword is sharp, you can't even get close to the enemy, what can you do?

"The Ming army is terrible!"

Sanada Nobuyomori's mind still had the cannonballs whistling in the sky, and the scene of being harvested like a wave of wheat, and the whole person was silent, and the 5,000 Japanese samurai were also silent and scary.

However, before they could think too much, a Ming army general in a crimson robe rode over on a horse and said to them: "Wait a minute, your task is very simple, that is, rush in and kill everyone inside." ”

Then someone who was proficient in the Chinese language of the U Kingdom and Korea also came to translate loudly.

"Got it?"

"Understood!"

When Sanada Nobuyori and the others heard this, they immediately hurriedly replied in unison.

Although I have some doubts about this order, I don't understand why the Ming army slaughtered the city of Tokyo, if you count the ordinary people in the city, I am afraid that there are two or three hundred thousand people, such a huge population, will all of them be slaughtered?

I couldn't think clearly, but that didn't stop them from carrying out their orders.

The 5,000 Wakoku samurai and the 5,000 Korean samurai, their commanders were all Ming people, not their respective Wa and Koreans, and only the 100 households who commanded a hundred people like Sanada Nobu Shomu below were Wa and Koreans.

On the top of the city of Tokyo, the suppressed Annan army did not even dare to raise its head, the muskets of the Ming army were too terrible, the rate of fire was very fast, and it was very dense, as long as someone showed their heads, they would soon be shot.

This battle was too aggrieved, even though the Ming army was strong, but they didn't even have a chance to fight with the Ming army.

From the very beginning of the war, the Ming army suppressed them to fight, artillery, muskets, and there was no chance of even hand-to-hand white-knuckle combat, and there was nowhere to release any blood.

"Liu Jin can almost be killed, right?"

Zhang Mao rode on a tall horse, holding a telescope to carefully observe the situation in the city of Tokyo, the entire city of Tokyo has been turned into a ruin under the attack of artillery fire, the city walls are full of devastation, and even a section of the city wall has been blown down.

The Annan army had already suffered heavy casualties, and it was almost time to enter the city.

"Well, it's almost ready to be killed~"

"Let the Japanese warriors and Korean warriors kill first, let them be used as swords, clean up these people of Annam, and if these old forces are not cleaned up, our Ming rule here will not be stable."

Liu Jin nodded and said, just now he asked people to pass the order to the Wa Kingdom and the Korean Samurai Regiment.

There will always be someone to be the bad guy, and there will always be someone to carry the bad reputation.

Obviously, Liu Jin didn't want to be this pot, so he had to let these people from North Korea and the Japanese samurai regiment carry it, even if the people of Annam had any hatred in the future, it would not be blamed on the head of the Ming army, and the slaughter of the city was not slaughtered by our Ming army, but by the Japanese and Korean samurai regiments.

As for who gave the order, I don't know, anyway, Liu Jin won't admit it, Zhang Mao won't admit it, and the Ming army will also say that it wasn't given by himself.

I brought them here so they could do this kind of thing.

Not only the powerful people of Annan in Tokyo, but also many Haoqiang and Tusi in the entire Annan country, these people Liu Jin plan to sort it out and clean it up.

In the past, when the Ming army ruled here, it was not sorted out, so these Haoqiang and Tusi were also often repeated rebellions, and the establishment of the Houli Dynasty actually relied on the support of these Haoqiang and Tusi.

Liu Jin will not make such a mistake again, and he will not leave such an opportunity for them again.

I have a knife in my hand that has been blackened, why is it not easy to use, and I can clean it up all at once.

"Siege~"

Zhang Mao nodded, and suddenly gave an order.

Soon, the order reached the Korean and Wa warrior regiments.

"Kill!"

Sanada Nobuyori, Li Fangti and others received the order, and the 5,000 Japanese samurai and 5,000 Korean samurai drew their swords one after another, and rushed towards Tokyo City like a tide.

The artillery fire began to extend to the inner city of Tokyo, and the suppression on the city walls was still there, the gates had been opened, and the Japanese and Korean samurai began to pour in, and began to spread rapidly throughout the city.

"Kill~"

On the city wall, Sanada Nobuyori rushed forward with more than 100 Japanese samurai under his command.

The Ming army actually let them fight the vanguard, the gate of this city has been wide open, and the Annan army has suffered heavy casualties, and the Ming army can easily take the entire city of Tokyo by rushing in by itself.

However, the Ming army did not, but cheapened their Japanese and Korean warriors, which was the first to rush in naturally has a lot of benefits, the more people killed, the greater the merit, and to rush in first, you can naturally grab the most gold, silver, jewelry and the like.

"Kill~"

The remaining Annan army on the city wall finally had a chance to fight the enemy, and with a roar, they also rushed towards these Japanese and Korean warriors with red eyes.

However, as soon as they fought, they sadly found that they were no match for these Japanese warriors and Korean warriors at all, and these Korean and Korean warriors were very well-equipped, wearing armor and helmets, and each one was superb in swordsmanship and in good shape.

Sanada Shin Mamoru is like a tiger rushing into a flock of sheep, the katana in his hand is constantly waving, the sword light flashes, leaving a bloody path in his pass, and killing all the way on the city wall.

These Japanese warriors under his command are also very powerful, all of them are samurai from samurai families, not to mention anything else, this swordsmanship alone is extraordinary, plus this body of excellent equipment.

The battle presented a one-sided situation, and even the most elite Annam army was far from being the opponent of these Japanese and Korean samurai regiments, which was no longer a battle, but a one-sided slaughter.

On the city wall, corpses were strewn all over the field, and blood flowed like a river, and in a blink of an eye, the control of the city wall fell into the hands of the Wa Kingdom and the Korean samurai regiment, and then quickly spread to the entire Tokyo City.

"Take a break ~ stand up ~ walk together!"

Outside the city, groups of Ming troops began to march towards the city of Tokyo, and their goal was simple, that is, the inner city of Tokyo, especially the imperial city in the inner city.

There is a huge wealth accumulated by Annan over the years, how could Liu Jin and Zhang Mao really cheap the Japanese and Koreans, they do the dirty work, and the fruits of this victory naturally have to be eaten by their own people first.
