Shimazu Akihisa waved the fan in his hand and commanded an army of more than 720 people in total, forming a military formation a hundred steps away from the beach.

In front of the www.biquge.info are 100 iron gunners, and on the left and right, there are 50 archers.

In the middle formation, there are about 300 spearmen who are the main force of the battle.

In the back, there are about 150 samurai with swords.

The last to be escorted was more than 50 cavalry troops under the command of Shimazu Akihisa.

The entire military column was arranged in a neat and orderly manner, and the appropriate distance between the various arms was maintained, but Shimazu Akihisa's emergency deployment was still very orderly.

It's just that what makes Shimazu Akihisa and all the soldiers feel strange is that the ships of the Ming army have been approaching the coast for a long time, but they have not lowered the gangway and let the Ming infantry come down.

"Your Excellency General, why does the enemy not get off the ship?"

The general on the side tightened the restless horse under his crotch and whispered to Shimazu Akihisa.

Shimazu Akihisa frowned, but before he could answer, he suddenly saw flags waving on the ship in the distance, and then, the earth-shaking cannonballs rang out endlessly.

The side guns of the five Longxiang-class battleships fired in unison, and at least more than 150 shells, large and small, roared towards the Satsuma military formation, which was a hundred paces away.

Shimazu Akihisa, his face was as white as paper.

"Horn Ga, the Ming army has so many big cylinders!" The large barrel mentioned by Shimazu Akihisa became synonymous with "large iron cannon" during the Warring States period in Japan, and its original meaning did not refer to the artillery used in the Ming Dynasty and Europe, but specifically to the large-scale arquebus. Therefore, although the caliber of some large barrels is very large, equivalent to small-caliber artillery, its essence is still the same as that of iron cannons, which must be fired by pulling the trigger. Because at this time, artillery in the real sense was not yet available in Japan, so Shimazu Akihisa naturally regarded the artillery of the Ming army as a large barrel like a large arquebus. More than 150 solid iron bullets, forming a terrifying rain of death, pounced on the panicked Satsuma army array, and soon, endless screams rang out from the Satsuma army array. Shimazu Akihisa was horrified to see that a large number of his soldiers were smashed by these huge black iron bullets to a blur of flesh and blood, stumps were splashed, blood and internal organs were flying everywhere, and the general who asked him was directly smashed by a black iron bullet the size of a head, even people and horses, into a disgusting ball of flesh and blood. This extremely terrifying and huge blow made the Satsuma army, which had always been brave and arrogant, unable to bear it at all, and immediately collapsed. The Ming army's naval artillery salvo caused at least 300 Satsuma soldiers to be killed and wounded. The remnants of the soldiers wailed, abandoned their weapons one after another, and subconsciously fled to the main formation on Tangwan Mountain. "Withdraw, quickly withdraw to this formation!" Shimazu Akihisa roared, and then took the lead with the remaining more than ten cavalrymen and fled wildly in the direction of Tangwan Mountain. At this time, after this round of shelling, the five battleships lowered their gangways and let the Tigers on board roll down the ship. At the forefront is the Flying Harrier Light Ride. They galloped on their horses, screaming sharply, and soon caught up with the fleeing Satsuma soldiers, and with a powerful swing of their swords, a Satsuma deserter screamed and fell to the ground. The horses' hooves rumbled, the sword flashed, and the screams were repeated, and when they chased to the foot of Tangwan Mountain, except for the more than ten cavalrymen who escorted Shimazu Akihisa to escape back to their main formation, all the rest of the rout had been killed by the Flying Harrier Light Cavalry. The wounded soldiers abandoned by the Satsuma army were stabbed by Li Xiaojun's infantry with knives and guns, and all of them were killed. At this point, the blocking battle planned by Akihisa Shimazu ended with the complete defeat of the Satsuma army. Not a single member of the Ming army was injured, but more than 700 soldiers of the Satsuma army had died, and only more than 200 soldiers remained. Li Xiao, who came to the shore, slowly rode his horse to the Satsuma army formation, and saw the broken corpses everywhere and the dark red blood sprinkled all over the ground, but a faint smile appeared on his face. These little Japan, who have always been arrogant, would never have thought that they would not even have a chance to fight, so they all died here. Li Xiao looked up at the sky, and the sun slowly slanting to the west painted the warm afterglow all over his handsome face. "Pass on the order of the Benbo army, the infantry clean up the battlefield, throw all the enemy corpses into the sea to feed the fish, and the heavy dragon artillery troops and musketeers, according to the pre-battle plan, continue to attack the main camp of Tangwan Mountain, and before the sun goes down, break through the main formation, and destroy all the remaining Satsuma troops on the island." "Order!" Like a bloody sunset, Shimazu Akihisa, who fled back to the main formation, stood on the watchtower of the main formation, and watched expressionlessly as those Ming troops were pushing ten large artillery with extremely huge muzzles along the mountain road, and slowly moved towards the mountain crossing. And behind these cannons, there was a dense crowd of musketeers who followed. Shimazu Akihisa suddenly had a wry smile on his face. He could see that these big barrels of the Ming army were very likely to be more powerful than the guns on the previous ship, so his own formation would be extremely difficult to withstand such a salvo bombardment. Do you want to surrender? This thought suddenly flashed through Shimazu Akihisa's mind. He shook his head quickly, though, ashamed of his own thoughts. Satsuma's samurai are only those who died on the battlefield, but there are no people who surrender on their knees! Although the lord of the Nasatsuma domain, Tsumitsu Hisashi, was so suspicious of him, this was by no means a reason for him to betray the Shimazu family. Loyal and brave samurai can only wither on the battlefield of life and death like cherry blossoms. Thinking of this, Shimazu Akihisa has already made a decision. Since the ultimate fate of the samurai is to die in battle, let yourself and these subordinates be loyal to the Shimazu family here. Akihisa Shimazu returned to his own room and returned to his room. At a glance, he saw the prostitute, who was huddled in the corner of the wall, shaking like chaff, and the blind musician who sat on the sidelines, like a puppet. "Play music, dance." Shimazu Akihisa threw the sword on the tatami mat, and while taking off his armor, he coldly ordered. The bleak and deep scarlet music, like a cry, sounded like a cry, and the prostitute with tears in her eyes, holding a handkerchief fan, danced tactfully with the music. Akihisa Shimazu, who was wearing only underwear, drank three glasses of sake in a row with a hideous face, then got up with a sinister smile and rushed towards the prostitute with a roar. Like a wild beast, he stripped the prostitute of all her clothes and pressed her jade-like body under him. In the melodious music, the prostitute's crying was intertwined with his roar, and it was not until he roared and collapsed on her limp body after a burst of electric tingling from head to leg. "General。。。。。。 Shimazu Akihisa slowly picked up the tear-stained face of the prostitute, and his thick fingers gently brushed her red lips, this samurai with a heart like iron, there were tears flashing in his eyes. At this moment, there was a loud crashing sound from outside. The whole room shook and shook, and the sand and stones from the ceiling fell in a slurp. Shimazu's face was expressionless, but his heart was like a knife. He knew that it was the Ming army that was bombarding the wall of the formation, and under such a fierce shelling, this formation was afraid that it would not last long. "It's time to hit the road, are you ready?" He smiled bitterly at the prostitute he was holding in his arms, his voice trembling slightly. The prostitute burst into tears, but nodded slightly. "Do it, General, it's my honor to die at your hands." Shimazu Akihisa stood up and gently picked up the cold and sharp sword, and he clenched the long shark skin handle hard. "Don't be afraid, my knife is fast, it won't hurt." Akihisa Shimazu is naked all over the body. The prostitute, who was naked but sat still with his back to him, said with a wry smile. Immediately, he let out a loud shout and swung his knife at the cross, and the head of the prostitute took to the air, and after making a short arc in the air, it rolled down into a dark corner. The headless body of the prostitute, with its neck as smooth as a mirror, and blood gushing like a spring, slowly fell on the tatami mat. Shimazu Akihisa looked hideous, turned his body, and shouted again, the knife slashed over, and the blind Noh musician who was playing the piano on the side was also the same as the prostitute, with two heads and two places, and blood spurted wildly from the broken neck. Shimazu Akihisa held the blood-drenched Tai Knife aloft, raised his head and laughed, his voice crazy and poignant. There was another loud cannon fire, and the light clatter of the wall wall followed, and the whole room shook more and more violently. Akihisa Shimazu knew that time was running out for him. He called out to the retinue and asked him to help him get dressed and armoured, and then turned around and left. After the third salvo of the Ming army, the walls of the main formation facing the road had all collapsed. At this time, in the middle of the formation, suddenly the fire was blazing, and the thick smoke covered the air, and the main general Shimazu Akihisa led all the remnants of the troops in the formation, like a group of ghosts, from the fire and smoke through the formation, and rushed down the mountain. Li Xiao, who saw the Satsuma army's fire from a distance, frowned unconsciously. It's a pity, I didn't expect these die-hard guys to set fire to the baggage ordnance first, but it greatly reduced their own post-war captures. Shimazu Akihisa took the lead, he raised the bloody sword in his hand, led more than a dozen cavalrymen, roared loudly, and rushed down the mountain first. The firecrackers who had been waiting for a long time at the foot of the mountain immediately rushed up one after another, and the sound of firecrackers was as dense as firecrackers. A small buckshot weighing three coins first laughed through Shimazu Akihisa's throat and came straight out of the back of his neck. Immediately afterward, two more lead bullets pierced his carcass and burrowed into his chest and abdomen. Shimazu Akihisa fell from his horse like a piece of wood, and was immediately trampled into a meatloaf by the horses behind him. The 1,000 musketeers were divided into two groups, and after two volleys of muskets, all the remnants of the Satsuma army were wiped out. On the entire mountain road, people and horses are in wait, and the corpses are in disarray. A firecracker rushed over to cut off Akihisa Shimazu's head, then raised his head and laughed loudly, rejoicing that he had won the first prize. At this point, the Satsuma army stationed on Amami Oshima Island was completely wiped out, and the long-distance attack of the Tiger Army was surprisingly zero casualties. Just as the Satsuma army conquered the Ryukyus with minimal losses with its sophisticated firearms, the Tigers now returned a tooth for a tooth and won a complete victory in this battle without any casualties. After showing the head of Shimazu Akihisa to the Satsuma military ships in the port of Amami Island, these Satsuma naval troops who were firmly surrounded by Li Xiao's sailors in the harbor no longer had the will to resist, so they had to obediently surrender to Li Xiao, and then Li Xiao sent sailors to receive them. It's just that the spearmen and shield soldiers who came with the ship but never had the opportunity to show their skills all had a look of regret on their faces, and they felt that this time they came not to fight, but as if they were to travel. After the Tiger Army urgently cleaned the battlefield again, the sunset finally set, and the sky and the earth were like a bloody afterglow, and the cheers and celebrations of the Tiger soldiers were like spring thunder, which lasted endlessly. As the moon rose high, Li Xiao led the entire fleet, including more than 30 Japanese naval vessels, to return south to the Ryukyus. The moonlight is like water, the sea is sinking, and on each ship, the two huge sun and moon double dragon flags and the fierce tiger roaring sun flags are facing the cold sea breeze, hunting and flying.
