The sudden surrender of the Japanese invaders made Yan Yingyuan unable to react for a while.

"The Woko surrendered like that?" Yan Yingyuan asked uncertainly.

To say that Yan Yingyuan was born in Jiangyin, very close to the sea, Jiangyin was also the hardest hit area by the Japanese invaders a few decades ago, a large number of innocent people were brutally killed by the Japanese invaders, people mentioned how ferocious and perverted the Japanese are and are not afraid of death, Yan Yingyuan grew up under such a legend, and the war of the destruction of Korea, 150,000 Japanese invaders gave Yan Yingyuan the impression of being quite tenacious.

And the Japanese in the western capital in front of Yan Yingyuan felt different, the Ming army landed on Kyushu Island, only three or two times I saw their figures, not only the Ming army attacked various cities It is difficult to see them to block, and now the army has not yet begun to attack the city, they are about to surrender, the so-called ferocious and not afraid of death, it seems to be the same thing.

In fact, what Yan Yingyuan couldn't have imagined was that the nature of the widow implied a strong servility! When they are strong, they are weak, when they are weak, they will appear fierce and fearless of death, and once anyone can show the strength to crush them, they will appear weaker than anyone else.

"Stop shelling!" Yan Yingyuan raised his hand and ordered.

The artillery fire stopped, and there was silence on the battlefield.

However, in just a moment, there was a sudden burst of cheers in the city, and the Japanese soldiers with white flags on the city walls also stood up, waving the white flags in their hands openly, and although they were separated by a few hundred meters, it was obvious to see the excitement and smiles on their faces, as if they were looking forward to surrendering.

Seeing this scene, Yan Yingyuan was stunned again, and his eyes were full of different colors.

After another moment, the gates of the western capital were opened, and Hidemasa Takeda and a group of Japanese generals cautiously walked out.

When they came to the front of the Ming army, they couldn't help but feel numb when they saw that the muzzle of the black hole in the Ming army's hand was aimed at them.

"Hidemasa Takeda surrendered to General Kamibang, please accept our surrender!" Hidemasa Takeda knelt on the ground and presented his katana as a voluntary surrender to the Ming army.

Realizing that the Japanese were indeed coming out to surrender, Yan Yingyuan smiled contemptuously and stepped forward to grab Takeda Hidemasa's katana in his hand, and at the same time, a group of Ming soldiers rushed forward and controlled Takeda Hidemasa and other Japanese generals.

When the Ming army stepped into the western capital, the city was already in ruins, and a large number of Japanese soldiers knelt on the ground and waited to surrender.

"That's how it is!" Seeing that the Japanese were so weak, the soldiers of the Ming army showed disdain one by one.

With the surrender of Takeda Hidemasa and other Japanese pirates to the Ming army, and the Ming army of the other four regiments also captured the cities one after another, the entire island of Kyushu was completely controlled by the Ming army, and the Japanese pirates on the island were also dealt with by the Ming army.

Yan Yingyuan fully implemented Zhu Ci's strategy of purging the Japanese state, and all the Japanese men over the age of ten were captured, counting the 110,000 Japanese army surrendered by Takeda Hidemasa and others, and the 1.7 million population of Kyushu Island, the Ming army captured 400,000 prisoners.

60,000 regular Ming troops, 140,000 garrison troops, a total of 200,000 Ming troops, control 400,000 Japanese prisoners without the slightest pressure, not to mention after being captured, the Japanese are out of their good management, worthy of living in servility, in the face of stronger than them, they can't afford to resist.

140,000 garrisons stayed on Kyushu Island and organized the escort of 400,000 Japanese prisoners on the island back to the Ming Dynasty, all of which were free labor. Yan Yingyuan, on the other hand, continued to cross the sea with 60,000 regular troops to attack Shikoku Island, the next island of the Wa Kingdom.

Shikoku Island is about half the size of Kyushu Island, with a population of only 800,000 people, and about 80,000 Japanese troops stationed on it, commanded by a Japanese general named Uesugi Toshitomi.

On the evening of 6 November, the Ming army landed on Shikoku Island overnight.

Because the Ming fleet controlled the sea, Shikoku Island was surrounded by the sea and was also completely blocked, so when the Ming army began to land on Shikoku Island on a large scale, the Japanese invaders above realized that the Ming army was likely to have fully occupied Kyushu Island.

This consciousness surprised the Japanese on the island, and Kyushu Island only resisted for nine days, and it was fully captured by the Ming army?

"General, it's not good, the Ming army has begun a large-scale landing on our Shikoku Island!" There was a Japanese who urgently reported to Toshimi Uesugi.

"So fast!" Uesugi Toshitomi was taken aback, after all, since the Ming army began to land on Shikoku Island on a large scale, it almost showed that Kyushu Island had fallen.

Upon hearing the news of the overnight landing of the Ming army, Uesugi Toshitomi certainly would not let go of attacking before the Ming army completed the landing.

The army of Japanese on the island of 80,000 Shikoku, led by Uesugi Toshitomi, hurried to the shore where the Ming army had landed.

Night was falling, and the Ming army had landed more than 10,000 people.

"Kill Gaga" Uesugi Toshitomi came out with 80,000 Japanese invaders, and a fierce battle broke out on this coast.

The defending Ming soldiers responded calmly, throwing a grenade before firing after the Japanese invaders rushed forty meters into the area.

At the beginning, the Japanese invaders rushed into a distance of forty meters, and seeing that the Ming army was in front of them, they could immediately rush up to fight the Ming army hand-to-hand, but unfortunately before they could be happy, they were killed and injured by the grenades thrown by the Ming soldiers.

"Boom, boom, boom" Hundreds of grenades exploded, and the vanguard's pirates were immediately blown up.

This was not over, the machine guns and rifles of the Ming army also began to fire.

"Bang Bang Bang"

"Da Da Da"

A dense stream of bullets swept through, and a large number of Japanese soldiers were shot and killed, and the Japanese were cleared from a distance of forty meters to a hundred meters away almost instantly.

"Kill Gaga," Uesugi Toshitomi roared loudly.

However, they were flesh and blood after all, and in the face of the overwhelming weapon superiority of the Ming army, any resistance and charging they fought were in vain.

The charging Wako still could not escape the fate of being shot in pieces, and soon the Wako were cleared 200 meters away, and even Uesugi Toshitomi, who was in command between 200 meters, was not spared.

"Poof! Poof! More than a dozen bullets pierced Uesugi Toshitomi's body.

Uesugi Toshitomi, the supreme general of the Wako Army on the island of Shikoku, was shot and killed as soon as he appeared.

After the death of Uesugi Toshitomi, the Japanese soldiers were leaderless, and the Japanese army, which was originally frightened by the powerful firepower of the Ming army, was instantly defeated, in the end, it was the same as the Japanese on Kyushu Island, most of them were soldiers who had been temporarily recruited in the last two months, and the will to fight was not high, coupled with the strength of the Ming army, the character of the Japanese army was weak when it was strong and weak again!

The army was defeated like a mountain, and the remaining 70,000 troops of the Japanese invaders fled all over the mountain.

This time, Yan Yingyuan did not wait for dawn to attack like on Kyushu Island, but directly ordered the landing of more than 10,000 troops to chase and kill the fleeing Japanese soldiers.

Other Ming soldiers were still landing, and the 12,000 or so Ming troops who had already landed formed a small team of twenty or thirty people to pursue and kill the fleeing Japanese invaders, expanding the results of the battle.

It seems that Yan Yingyuan is planning to directly annihilate the main force of the Japanese army on the island in a battle tonight, and take Shikoku Island as quickly as possible so that he can quickly start attacking the next target, and the most important target, Honshu Island.

"Kill"

During the pursuit, more than 10,000 Ming soldiers continued to shoot and kill the slow-running Japanese soldiers.

This pursuit lasted all night, the Ming army penetrated dozens of miles, and in the process also took advantage of the situation to capture seven Japanese cities, shooting and capturing no less than 30,000 Japanese invaders, counting the nearly 10,000 Japanese invaders shot and killed by the sea, the 80,000 Japanese army on Shikoku Island has been lost nearly half, and the remaining 40,000 Japanese army is also leaderless, fighting separately, no longer worrying.

In the early morning of the next day, after an overnight landing, the 60,000 regular troops of the Ming army had all landed.

Yan Yingyuan ordered the landed Ming army to attack the depths of Shikoku Island non-stop.
