"What's the situation in Hangzhou? Haven't those dog officials abandoned the city and fled? Sitting in the most beautiful hall in a village three miles away from Hangzhou, dressed as a Japanese samurai, a small dog with pigtails on his head, and a katana in his hand, he looked at this gorgeous hall with envy while asking a companion beside him.

This is the house of a small boat owner in a small local village, according to common sense, this is only a small rich family in the country of China, but looking at the gorgeous hall, even the great names of their own country cannot be compared.

Sitting in this sun-drenched hall, comfortably drinking his favorite tea, squinting his eyes and enjoying this rare quiet, if it weren't for the bloody smell of the corpses lying on the ground outside, which somewhat ruined his mood, he would really go on like this forever, and never return to that kennel-like country.

"The people of China are really rich." The puppy sighed in his heart.

"Lord Hui, the people of China have not abandoned the city and fled." The companion replied cautiously and respectfully, "Not only that, but the ninja reward we have just received, not only did the county not show the sign of abandoning the city, but began to sign a match, strengthen the city's defenses, and make a posture of a decisive battle with us. “”

"Huh?" When the little dog heard this, he couldn't help but sigh, and turned his head to look at this subordinate in disbelief, as if he wanted to confirm the accuracy of the information he heard.

At any time, as long as the local government heard that their "Japanese cowards" had come ashore, the first reaction was that the small people fled, and those who could not escape would also contribute all their belongings, and stretched their necks, waiting for their katana to cut off their heads, just like the owners of this solid courtyard. Although Qi Jiguang came out because of a different kind of Qi Jiguang, he is already dead, and he can't die anymore, and he has no successors. It can be said that their court is even more corrupt now, and even a few mountain savages can't resist the attack, and the prestige of our "Wako" daimyo is still there, and the situation has not changed much.

"Are we going on the offensive?" The partner's eyes flashed in the shape of a copper coin, and he asked cautiously.

"Attack? Ha. The puppy snorted, and then looked at the companion like an idiot. A warrior of less than 500 people,

With two thousand Ming dogs, you are going to attack a fortified city like Hangzhou? Not to mention whether the attack can achieve its goal, it is that the casualties are beyond their own means.

"Our warriors of the Great Japanese Empire are invincible, and a small Hangzhou can be conquered overnight. Ask your Excellency to give the order. This fool not only didn't see the contemptuous eyes of his boss, but assured with infinite confidence that in fact, in this self-confidence, he was greedy for the wealth of those rich countries in Hangzhou.

Yes, according to the news from the Han spies, the wealth of the top five maritime merchants in Hangzhou alone can completely buy half of Japan, think about it, in hundreds of thousands of years, how much wealth has the Heavenly Dynasty "plundered" in Japan?

Clay-fired porcelain costs not much at all, but in Japan it is sold dozens or hundreds of times more than itself, and what insects spit out makes cloth, which can only be exchanged for hundreds or thousands of times silver, not to mention copper coins. In their case, it was always exchanged for two taels of silver, but once it was shipped into Japan under the pretext of balancing, it was ten taels or twenty taels of exchange. If you look at it now, where is the Japanese money system that is popular in the world? It's all Ming copper coins. In this way, Japan can only get poorer and poorer, so poor that a warlord and a daimyo go to war, just because his son drank half a bowl of gruel, he will be severely complained about by the daimyo who is a father.

Those who eat me must spit it out, and those who take mine must be returned, this is the purpose of the puppy this time.

If this Hangzhou is really taken, then his wealth will instantly become the first in the whole of Japan, and in that way, he can use this huge wealth to let his family defeat all other opponents, so as to truly assist the emperor to become an absolute pro-government.

And once the emperor is in power, and then has his own family to assist, a strong, universal empire will be invincible, into Korea, and thus into the Ming Dynasty, a fertile land with honey and black oil everywhere, so that the emperor in that Forbidden City, become the real emperor of the world.

However, there is a bad thing in everything, but then, there are only five hundred of his current subordinates, and the rest are those lowly Chinese people, who fight a good fight, and their own compatriots are okay, let them really pick up the sword qiang to attack the city? That's not going to happen.

Also, in this land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there is also a navy formed by the Ming Dynasty, there are 50,000 horses, although they are weak and weak, but do you know which of them are pulling up which tendons, and sending a fleet of warships to cut off their own back road?

Therefore, it is the best choice for you to win Rizhao without blood.

Therefore, the best way is to suddenly go ashore this time, make a big noise and use coercion to make the Ming officials abandon Hangzhou, and then occupy it without blood. And the 500 warriors he led are all experienced in a hundred battles, and he has to take them back to fight in Japan.

He lowered his head and thought about it: "Please Zhao Sang come over, I have something to say." The puppy said to one of the original ashigari standing at the door.

The ashigaru knelt on one leg to receive the order, and ran out of the flight.

Zhao Sang, whose real name is Zhao Wujie, is also a person from Hangzhou, and he also did maritime smuggling trade earlier, but he has no foundation behind him, not only to fight with pirates at sea, but also to always beware of the calculations of those wealthy families.

Originally, after this war, Zhao Wujie was cornered, so he stomped his feet and simply recruited a group of fishermen who could not survive because of the sea ban on the coast, and formed a pirate force, working hard and happy at sea, because of many times with the five families of Hangzhou as enemies, by the five joint strikes, but also because of the five families called the Hangzhou Navy to encircle and suppress, after several major wars, although relying on the strategy to get rid of the situation of annihilation, but also the vitality was greatly damaged, and it was difficult to support. So, Zhao Wujie took the remnants of the defeated army to take refuge in the largest group of pirates along the coast, and with his wit and calmness, in the pirate gang, he slowly rose to the top, and even killed the big boss in a long-planned fire fight to become the leader of this force.

But in any case, in the face of the powerful five coalition forces, as well as the Jiangsu and Zhejiang sailors who were called, Zhao Wujie had no chance and strength to take revenge, so he turned to the Japanese Kou.

The Japanese are fierce and notorious, even the Jiangsu-Zhejiang sailors are quite jealous, not to mention the five coalition forces, so Zhao Wujie escaped the catastrophe and saw the hope of revenge again.

Just a few days ago, after careful consideration, Zhao Wujie finally said that he would move the little dog to send troops, and he checked his subordinates to follow strongly, and went ashore with murderous spirits, killing Hangzhou, looking for the five bad luck.

The situation in Hangzhou, Zhao Wujie is the most clear, however, although the city wall is tall and strong, and the five families have a large foundation in the city, and the caretaker is also strong and strong, once the nest is dangerous, he will definitely defend it with all his might, and if he really wants to fight to the death, he will definitely suffer heavy casualties, even if he takes Hangzhou, these battle-hardened old pirates who follow him will also be lost, although as long as the money and food are in hand, it is easy to recruit fishermen who are about to starve to death as thieves, but those people have no combat effectiveness at all. Therefore, Zhao Wujie agreed with the little dog to bluff, hoping to scare away the Rizhao officials, a group of dragons without a leader of the city defense is equivalent to no city defense, at the same time, three miles away, wanton killing to drive the people to flee to Hangzhou, not only can cause greater pressure and panic in Hangzhou, at the same time, but also let hundreds of their own subordinates hide in it with short blades, take advantage of the chaos to enter the city, and meet with themselves inside and outside, then, even if the five families are desperate, it is also a lack of skills.

At this time, Zhao Wujie was listening to the spies returning to Hangzhou to take pictures of the situation at the stationing of the whole army, and the more he listened, the tighter Zhao Wujie's brows wrinkled.

"No, according to my own inquiry, the political envoy and the officials at the top and bottom of Hangzhou are simply useless scholars, a straw coward, at this time, why did they suddenly become tough and courageous? also organized his own means in an orderly manner and organized the signing of Ding to defend the city? ”

"Is this accurate?"

The person who came seriously reported: "Accurate, not only that, but the soldiers of the nine battalions outside the city have also begun to enter Hangzhou, Hangzhou, which is now unbreakable, please think twice."
