The camp of the Qing Shang Right Naval Army Festival, there are more and more tents of the Ming army camp near the wharf, and the chariots, artillery carriages and other things are also densely lined up row after row, and the grain and grass are even more piled up.

When King Gongxian Li Xian and all the subordinate officials saw this posture, they were all terrified, when did the Ming army become so powerful, this equipment is simply desperate!

However, Yang Cong did not come here with his army to show his strength in front of the vassal kings, the main reason was that Dongying was too far away from the Ming Dynasty, and even if he started from the nearest Denglai Water Castle, it would take at least six or seven hours to reach the territory of the Dongying Hirado Domain at the speed of a steamer.

The so-called "lion fights rabbit, but also with all his strength", although the Hirado clan is weak, Yang Cong doesn't want to capsize in that ditch because of carelessness.

At this time, Dongying's overall strength is not weak, in case the princes of all walks of life do not play their cards according to common sense, secretly unite, and help the Matsuura clan resist the invasion of his "foreign enemy", it will be troublesome, if he rashly lets the sailor fleet carry 10,000 foot soldiers to rush over, it is very likely to suffer a big loss.

If the princes of Dongying are united, not to mention too much, the 300,000 army can still be pulled out, he is not so arrogant that he thinks he is invincible in the world, and he can beat more than 300,000 madmen who don't want to die with only 10,000 horses.

At this time, although the fleet of the Ming Navy Division has more than 60 warships and nearly 300 Cangshan warships, the capacity is not very strong, because these warships are not specially used to transport troops, and the new warships not only have a large number of artillery and ammunition, but also have oversized boilers and steam pistons, and the remaining load capacity is not much, plus the elite of the Ming army is a chariot and a gun carriage at this time, and the volume and weight of the equipment are also not small, so, at this time, All the new warships of the Great Ming Naval Division can transport up to 10,000 foot soldiers and their equipment at a time, and the grain, grass and baggage even have to be transported in batches.

10,000 foot soldiers, no matter how well-equipped, even with the support of the naval division warships, it is a bit ridiculous to face hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops, so Yang Cong is ready to transport the army to the port of Pusan in the subject country of North Korea first, because it is only more than a hundred miles away from Tsushima Island, the territory of the Matsuura clan, and it will not take an hour for the naval fleet to rush over.

Yang Cong's plan was still steady, step by step, first occupying Tsushima Island south of Busan, then Iki Island, which was less than 100 miles away from Tsushima Island, and finally moving south to take the Hirado Domain in one fell swoop.

In this way, he doesn't have to worry about the lack of troops, because it is less than half an hour's journey from Iki Island to Hirado Domain, and he only needs to gather all the elites of the 40,000 Southeast Army on Iki Island, and it will not take half a day to pull the entire Hirado Domain to support.

If it is indeed a bit ridiculous to use 10,000 foot soldiers to face the 300,000 Dongying coalition troops that may appear, 40,000 foot soldiers are plus more than 10,000 elite sailors, and there is no problem in the face of the 300,000 Dongying coalition troops that may appear, as long as the 40,000 foot soldiers use chariots and artillery carriages to form a formation for defense, plus the support of thousands of artillery pieces of the naval division warships, all the princes and horses of the entire Dongying are not afraid of rushing over.

After more than ten days of back and forth transfers, the elite of the Southeast Army finally arrived, and the grain and grass were fully prepared.

In the afternoon of this day, in the camp of the Ming army, among the commanders' tents, Yu Dayou, Qi Jingtong, Lu Bo and other generals, as well as Gongxian Wang Li Xun and other subject officials gathered together, and Yang Conggao, the master of the Ming Dynasty, sat on the main seat and began to arrange the next battle strategy.

Yang Cong still habitually glanced around, and then said loudly: "Everyone, now everything is ready, and it is the right time to attack the Dongying Hirado Domain. Although there are all kinds of nos, there is one thing that we have to admit, that is, they are not afraid of death, and most of these guys are crazy people who don't want to die when they start fighting! ”

When everyone below heard this, they all had a straight face, indeed, although the Japanese are not a thing, but they really don't want to die when they start a war, they will not surrender until the mountains and rivers are exhausted, and even when the mountains and rivers are exhausted, there are still people who rush up to fight with you, this point, people who have fought with the Japanese are clear.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Cong continued: "Of course, we can't grow the morale of others and destroy our own prestige, even if the Japanese are all crazy people who don't want to die, we don't need to be afraid, because we have muskets, artillery, chariots, and thunder, as long as we are careful and vigilant, even if the Japanese don't want to die, it will be fake, because they can't rush to us at all." Here, I would also like to remind everyone that with the development of firearms, hand-to-hand combat will inevitably be replaced by long-range attacks, and you can't still rush to fight with people with the idea of fighting hard. “

When everyone below heard this, they all showed a look of thought, indeed, after having muskets and artillery, the rhythm on the battlefield seems to have quietly changed, and it was not so obvious when facing the Tartar cavalry before, because the speed of the cavalry is too fast, no matter how many muskets and artillery can not block all the cavalry from a hundred or even hundreds of paces, however, it is different in the face of the same infantry soldiers, a distance of a few hundred steps is simply a moat, and the Japanese are no longer dead, It seemed impossible to rush to them.

After Yang Cong finished saying this opening remark, he picked up the ash pole on the table, stood up, walked to the large map behind him, pointed to the island above and said in detail: "This time our plan is still to take step by step, we will first take Tsushima Island, transport all the foot soldiers and grain and grass baggage to it, and then take Iki Island, and then transport all the foot soldiers and part of the grain and grass baggage to it, and finally launch an attack on Hirado City." ”

This battle plan is not complicated, it is just a little troublesome, and everyone below is clear, and no one asks questions.

Yang Cong immediately deployed: "Zhifu, tomorrow morning, you will lead 10,000 foot soldiers to go straight to Tsushima Island by boat, and within one day, you must wipe out all the enemy troops on Tsushima Island." ”

This task may seem simple, but it is not easy to accomplish, because Tsushima Island is so large, more than 100 miles long from north to south, and it is not easy to wipe out all the enemies on it in one day.

However, Yu Dayou still firmly bowed his hand and said: "The last general will obey the order." ”

Immediately afterwards, Yang Cong said to Qi Jing: "Shixian, you lead the fleet to be responsible for transporting the foot soldiers, and at the same time carry out fire support, you don't have to lead the fleet back tomorrow, first assist Zhifu to clean up the enemy on Tsushima." ”

Qi Jingtong hurriedly arched his hand and said, "The last general understands." ”

Yang Cong then said to King Gongxian Li Xun: "Lord, after Tsushima Island and Iki Island are taken, they will be handed over to you to garrison, you should be ready to prepare." ”

When King Gongxian Li heard this, he was so excited that he almost didn't tremble.

This means that Tsushima Island and Iki Island will be his!

He really didn't expect that he would have this benefit just by running to meet the Heavenly Empire's envoys, which is an expansion of territory!

He hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Xiao Wang understands. ”

Yang Cong nodded slightly, then raised his hand and said, "Let's do this first, everyone go and prepare, as for the next step, wait until you take Tsushima Island." ”
