Chapter 507: Nobunaga Returns to Kyoto
Zhou Yu's solemn bow made Zhu Hao, who plagiarized the experience of later generations, suddenly feel a little embarrassed, and hurriedly snorted, helped Zhou Yu up, and said:
"Zhou Dudu, what are you doing here, get up quickly!"
"This king can have your help, it is the blessing of this king!"
As Zhu Hao's words fell, the two complimented each other a lot, needless to say.
After Zhu Hao had already decided on the general policy of ruling Wajima, he naturally wanted to send troops to rescue Kameda Ichiro, who was defeated and retreated.
With Zhu Hao's order issued, the Chinese army, led by Xu Chu Dianwei, sent 50,000 troops, and went to the front line in Nagoya to rescue Kameda Ichiro, at this moment Kameda Ichiro has been surrounded by Tokugawa Iemitsu's army.
When Xu Chu arrived, it was Kameda Ichiro, the key to his survival, in fact, the reason why Xu Chu stuck the time so just right was actually instructed by Zhu Hao, he didn't want Wajima to have his own military strength, which was not conducive to his later power rule.
Therefore, Xu Chu received an order to let Kameda Ichiro's clan be almost consumed, and then start to destroy the army of the Tokugawa shogunate.
At this moment, Kameda Ichiro, when he saw the arrival of the Ming army, was like a son seeing his father, and immediately knelt on the ground and shouted:
"Merciful Great King, your servant Kameda thank you for giving you a new life!"
Kameda Ichiro said without ambiguity, and really kowtowed in the direction of Zhu Hao's big tent, with a solemn expression, really like he was bowing to the gods.
With the addition of the Ming Tiger and Wolf Division, the tide of battle was reversed in an instant, Tokugawa Iemitsu didn't expect that Kameda Ichiro would be mixed with the Ming army, and with the entry of the Ming army, Tokugawa Iemitsu couldn't help but roar angrily:
"This damn Kameda Ichiro, he actually colluded with the Ming Dynasty, such a cheap person, my country, everyone will be punished!"
Tokugawa Iemitsu said, regardless of the Ming army that entered behind him, he immediately led the army and besieged Kameda Ichiro, and now the angry Tokugawa Iemitsu has only one thought in his heart, that is, even if he dies here today, he will pull Kameda Ichiro as a back.
In the face of the intensified siege of Tokugawa Iemitsu, Kameda Ichiro, who had just lost his fighting spirit, saw the arrival of the Ming army at this moment, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, very heroic, as if possessed by the god of war.
Tokugawa Iemitsu attacked Kameda Ichiro for a long time, and Xu Chu was commanding the Ming army and stepped up the encirclement and suppression of the Tokugawa shogunate's men, which made Tokugawa Iemitsu's men suffer heavy losses.
Tokugawa Iemitsu knew that it was unrealistic to want to keep Kameda Ichiro today, but if he attacked just now, he had already said it, and he was so anticlimactic, which made him feel a little faceless.
Just this Tokugawa Iemitsu, when he was retreating, the guard beside him stepped forward and said:
"General, the Ming army is strong, and it may be difficult to make contributions today, so it is better to temporarily retreat and retain strength!"
The guard's words happened to give Tokugawa Iemitsu a step down, he looked at Kameda Ichiro, who was close at hand, and then looked at Xu Chu behind him, and snorted:
"Okay, even if Kameda's grandson is lucky today, Ben will definitely behead him next time!"
"The general will order the whole army to break through and move closer to Kyoto!"
With the Tokugawa Iemitsu issuing the order to withdraw the troops, soon these Tokugawa shogunate's men and horses broke out of the encirclement, and the reason why they were able to break out of the encirclement so quickly was not without the element of Xu Chu deliberately releasing water.
Although the people of the Tokugawa shogunate were killed a lot by Xu Chu, there were still tens of thousands of people at the moment, and it was unrealistic for Xu Chu to encircle and annihilate these tens of thousands of horses, so Xu Chu wisely chose to let go of Tokugawa Iemitsu for the time being.
Therefore, Tokugawa Iemitsu was able to break through so smoothly.
With the breakthrough of Tokugawa Iemitsu, the Battle of Nagoya came to an end, but Zhu Hao's war against the Japanese had just begun.
At the same time as the battle of Nagoya began, Zhu Hao's other three armies also launched an offensive, and the Ming army was like a bamboo, and the other three armies all achieved great results, among which the entire territory of Hokkaido was occupied by the Ming army.
In the face of Zhu Hao's four-way army, Tokugawa Iemitsu knew that he could no longer disperse his forces and be broken by the Ming army one by one, so he immediately ordered all the armed forces on the island to assemble towards Kyoto, and he was going to start a final decisive battle with Zhu Hao in Kyoto.
With the contraction of the entire line of Tokugawa Iemitsu, the Ming army quickly occupied most of the Wajima, the four-way army, and the peak of the army pointed directly to Kyoto, and the decisive battle was about to begin.
Just when Zhu Hao's four-way army was rapidly assembling towards Kyoto, Tokugawa Iemitsu's chief of staff, Yamada Nobunaga, finally returned to Kyoto again.
This Yamada Nobunaga, I have to say that his fate is big, after he was thrown into the sea by Zhu Hao's order, relying on his good water nature, he thought about swimming to the dock.
However, when he was less than half the distance he swam, he felt exhausted and passed out in the sea, and he must have died in the sea, but he was pushed to the shore by the tide and was rescued by the local fishermen.
Originally, Yamada Nobunaga had already arrived at Wajima, but because he had been soaked in the water for too long, he couldn't afford to get sick, and after half a month of recuperation, he was relieved.
Although Yamada Nobunaga was recuperating from his illness, he paid close attention to the situation in Wajima every day, and when he heard that there was no good news, he was very anxious, but because of this, he was miraculously healed as if he had returned to the light.
After Yamada Nobunaga recovered himself, he immediately rushed to Kyoto to meet Tokugawa Iemitsu.
When Tokugawa Iemitsu saw Yamada Nobunaga again, Yamada Nobunaga was extremely miserable, and his whole person was ragged, like a beggar, which made Tokugawa Iemitsu a little unbelievable:
"You, you're Yamada-kun?"
"Why are you so embarrassed?"
Yamada Nobunaga listened to Tokugawa Iemitsu's words, sighed deeply and said:
"General, it's hard to say this to your subordinates!"
"The boss of the Ming Dynasty didn't play cards according to common sense at all, he not only insulted my country, but also threw his subordinates into the sea!"
"My subordinates have a big fate, so I am fortunate to come back to see the general!"
"The subordinates have been entrusted by the general, please punish the general!"
Tokugawa Iemitsu, looking at Yamada Nobunaga's miserable appearance, where could he still punish him, and immediately sighed and said:
"I can't blame you for this matter, I can only say that the Ming people are really arrogant, not to mention you, even the face of the general, these people have not been able to see it!"
"Originally, in Nagoya, the general could have quelled the rebels in one fell swoop, and he didn't want the Ming army to stick in and let the general's hopes be disappointed, it seems that God really bless my Tokugawa family!"
Yamada Nobunaga, listening to Tokugawa Iemitsu's words, groaned for a while, and then said with a grim face:
"General, don't panic, we still have special skills, which can defeat the enemy in one fell swoop!"
