Chapter 632: Attacking Nagano
The heavy bombardment lasted for most of the hour, and the Ming army fired almost all the shells they carried.
At this moment, Nagano Castle is already in ruins, and there are almost no buildings that are still intact.
"It's time to go in and clear out the pirates inside!" Yan Yingyuan muttered to himself.
Immediately, Yan Yingyuan sent a herald and ordered the Ming army besieging the four city gates to attack the city together.
"Kill"
Of the 50,000 Ming troops, in addition to the thousands of artillery battalions that remained to defend the city, more than 40,000 other people attacked Nagano Castle from the four gates at the same time.
The Ming army was fierce and almost unstoppable.
For most of the hour, the continuous and intensive shelling not only destroyed most of the buildings in the city, but also killed a large number of Japanese soldiers and civilians in the city.
Originally, there were about 170,000 Ito families and soldiers in the city, but after this shelling, there were less than 140,000 people with combat effectiveness, and with this number of men, it was impossible to resist the attack of more than 40,000 Ming troops.
Not to mention the fact that the Ming army had already shown its invincible combat effectiveness in the Battle of Hiroshima, which planted the seeds of fear in the hearts of the Wako soldiers.
The Ming army had just rushed in, and the first thing that the Japanese soldiers in the city thought of was not to resist, but to flee.
They may be usually ferocious and perverted, seemingly fearless of death, but they are also like untamed wild dogs, once the enemy shows the slightest cowardice or inferior to them, they will desperately pounce and bite like mad dogs, but once the enemy shows their desperate combat power, so that they do not see any hope of victory, they will be like untamed dogs, more tame than anyone else, almost difficult to give birth to the mind of resistance.
This was the case at the moment, where the battle of Hiroshima and the artillery fire had almost completely destroyed their will.
The Ming army of the Fourth Route continued to advance to the center of the city, and a large number of Japanese soldiers were forced to the center of the city, and the more they went to the center of the city, the more dense the Japanese soldiers became, and the Ming soldiers gradually surrounded more than 100,000 Japanese soldiers.
In addition to the thousands of Japanese soldiers killed by the Ming army along the way, about 130,000 Japanese were besieged by more than 40,000 Ming troops in the center of the city.
There are not only Ito Tsumoto and Takeda Shio and others inside, but even the so-called emperor of the Wako is also inside.
Yan Yingyuan rode on a war horse and looked at the besieged Japanese through the telescope in his hand.
"Hehe, I really can't imagine that the so-called emperor of the Japanese Kou is actually a woman!" Yan Yingyuan said with a strange smile.
Although before the attack on the Wa Kingdom, the Jinyi Wei secret agents collected a lot of information about the Wa Kingdom, but because the so-called emperor of the Wa Kingdom had already been hollowed out and did not have any real power, it did not receive much attention, so that Yan Yingyuan did not know the gender of the so-called emperor of the current Wako in advance, originally according to his thoughts, the one who could be called the emperor should be a man, and he never expected that there were also examples of women being emperors in the Wako, and there were many of them.
As for how Yan Yingyuan can tell who is the Emperor of the Imperial Palace, it is very simple, the Imperial State advocates the culture of the Tang Dynasty, and the imperial robe is partially copied from the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, plus the crown on his head.
The current emperor of the Wa Kingdom is named Xingzi, born in the fourth year of the Apocalypse, Chongzhen succeeded to the throne in the second year, and was only five years old when he succeeded to the throne, which was chosen by the Tokugawa shogunate for ease of control, and now he is only twenty-eight years old, and he has two sons and three daughters, and when the Ming warships bombarded Edo, he killed a son and a daughter, and when the Ming army shelled Nagano Castle just now, he was killed by a son and a daughter, and even his husband was killed, but it is said that the female emperor of the Wa Kingdom is now only one daughter.
Facing the encirclement of the Ming army, the female emperor's face was pale, her eyes were full of hatred, there was no way, her four children and her husband died in the hands of the Ming army, and it was normal for her to hate the Ming army.
However, no matter what, it could not change the outcome of the imminent destruction of the Wa Kingdom by the Ming army.
The Ming army set up machine guns, and their rifles were also aimed at the Japanese invaders.
Yan Yingyuan ordered the soldiers of the Ming army to shout out the only sentence that they had learned since the attack on the Japanese State Chinese those who surrendered will not be killed!"
"Those who descend will not be killed!"
"Those who descend will not be killed!"
Once, in order to facilitate the surrender of other Wu Kou and avoid indiscriminate killing of innocent people, Yan Yingyuan ordered all the soldiers of the army to learn this only Chinese language.
The shouts of more than 40,000 Ming troops, and the muzzles of the black holes pointed at them, formed an incomparably compelling momentum, which overwhelmed the besieged pirates.
Fear and despair spread among these widows.
"Killing Gaga" had unwilling Japanese pirates trying to break through the encirclement of the Ming army, and there were about 1,000 people.
They were greeted by icy bullets.
"Fire!"
"Da Da" The Ming soldiers shot without hesitation.
Thousands of Japanese soldiers were all shot and killed almost instantly, and even because the Ming army's bullets ranged nearly 300 meters, many Japanese soldiers who did not participate in the charge were also affected, and a large number of them fell.
With the experience of these thousands of pirates, the faces of the other pirates turned even paler.
Takeda Zhixiong's eyes were also full of fear, the Ming army was really too strong, and it couldn't be defeated at all!
Ito Kamoto looked sad and indignant, his heart was like ashes, it was because of him that Great Japan would fall to this point so quickly, and now even the emperor was surrounded, and the Ming army almost wiped out the emperor and all the heads of the family in this battle, he knew that it was impossible for them to break through the encirclement of the Ming army, and Great Japan was over! He, Ito, is a sinner of Great Japan!
"Your Majesty, the minister Ito has caused His Majesty to suffer this ordeal, and the sin deserves death, please allow the minister to atone for his sins!" Ito said to the female emperor through gritted teeth.
The female emperor has been living in the Edo Imperial Palace since she was five years old, and not only is she like a manipulated doll, but she has no real power, and Ito's appearance makes her a little overwhelmed for a while.
Without waiting for the female emperor to answer, Ito's expression was grim.
"Sons and daughters of the Ito family, your chance to atone for your sins has come, rush with me and kill Gaga"
Ito Kamamoto brandished the katana in his hand and rushed towards the Ming army with the three hundred core members of the Ito family.
"Kill Quack"
"Another wave of death! Fire! The general of the Ming army sneered and gave the order to shoot without hesitation.
"Da Da" was followed by another burst of intensive gunfire.
At least dozens of blood holes were punched on Ito's body, not only on his body, but also on his face and forehead, and almost his entire face was smashed, his body was like a plug, and his body fell to the ground, and his death was miserable, and he couldn't see it! The three hundred core members of the Ito family who followed him were all shot.
Although there are still many people in the Ito family who are afraid of death and do not follow the charge, at this moment, with the death of Ito Kamoto, the Ito family is considered to have perished.
Ito Kamoto is also a hero, and he has been the shogunate of the new Shogunate of the Japanese Kingdom for two days, but he is just a little stupid.
The death of Ito Kamoto made the faces of Takeda Shio and other leaders even more ugly, and the female emperor of the Japanese country was also frightened, her face turned pale, and the hatred in her eyes was diluted by half, and the Ming army was really terrifying.
At present, there are only two choices in front of Takeda Shio and Emperor Wakuni and others, one is to surrender and the other is to die! It's up to them to choose!
The answer is obvious, the Japanese who were unwilling to surrender and dared to rush out were already dead, and in the face of the guns of the Ming army, Takeda Zhixiong and others finally decided to surrender in a decadent manner, after all, even if they resisted, they might not be able to cause any casualties to the Ming army, but they died in vain.
