Volume 5 Chapter 70 The little devil was miserable

Kayama Hisamori was almost mad, he was the future general of the Satsuma Domain, the eldest son of Kashiyama Hidaka, the chief general of the Shimazu clan of the Satsuma Domain, and even the lord of the domain was polite to him, but this time he was slapped hard, and he was pushed to his knees and couldn't move.

This is simply a great shame, this revenge is not avenged, how can this breath be swallowed.

When he returned to Tsurumaru Castle, he immediately told his father about it, and then went to the feudal lord Shimazu Tadashi to complain.

Shimazu Tadashi still attaches great importance to the young general under him, and he even intends to let Kayama Kumori replace Kayama Hidaka's position as the general of the formation in the past two years, because Kayama Hisataka is too rigid, and sometimes he resists his orders a little, and Kayama Kumori is very good at welcoming and quite obedient, so he wants to hand over his army to Kayama Kumori to command.

At this time, as soon as he heard that Huashan Jiushou asked to see him, he immediately asked people to pass him in, and prepared a good fragrant tea while brewing and waiting.

Soon, Birshan's long guard walked in respectfully, and said, "See the head of the family." ”

Shimazu Tadashi cordially beckoned him to kneel down and pour him a cup of hot tea, then asked with a smile: "Jiumori, didn't you go to Ryukyu, why did you come back so soon." ”

Birshan, Kumori picked up the teacup and pretended to take a sip, and then said solemnly: "My lord, this time it may be a little troublesome." ”

Shimazu Tadatsune saw that Kayama Hisamori didn't have any special expression, and thought it was a trivial matter, so he smiled and asked, "Oh, what's the matter, does the King of the Ryukyus have any different intentions?" ”

Kayama Kumori nodded and said, "Yes, the king of Ryukyu went to the Ming Kingdom to complain, and the Ming Kingdom sent troops. ”

Shimazu Zhongheng heard this, his hand shook, the tea was almost spilled, he could have participated in the war of the Wanli Dynasty, and also followed his father to participate in the most tragic bloody battle of the Blue Hoof Pavilion, the courage of the Ming army, he still remembers it vividly, 120,000 troops surrounded less than 30,000 Ming troops for two days and two nights, and there was no difference between victory and defeat.

He and his father led an army of 30,000 to ambush Li Rusong, the chief general of the Ming army, who only brought 2,000 cavalry to help, but failed to take it down, and was forced to rush into the formation by him.

Every time he thought of the bloody battlefield, he broke out in a cold sweat, the Ming army was so brave, he really didn't want to face such a terrible enemy again.

The reason why he slowly advanced and spent nearly twenty years to send troops to occupy Ryukyu Island was that he didn't want to conflict with the Ming army, but he didn't expect the Ming army to come!

He pretended to be calm and asked lightly, "How many men and horses are coming from the Ming army?" ”

Birshan, Kumori, said vaguely: "There are probably more than 100 warships, more than 10,000 people." ”

More than 10,000 people!

Shimazu Tadashi has already retreated a little, in his opinion, the Ming army can at least one enemy three, more than 10,000 Ming troops, and the 40,000 horses under his command may not be able to do it.

Huashan Jiushou is very good at observing words and feelings, the reason why he said so vaguely is to depend on the reaction of the head of the family, if the head of the family does not take the Ming army seriously, it is naturally the best, if the head of the family is a little afraid of the Ming army, he will say that the Ming army is a little worse, in short, he is to deceive the master of the family to clean up the Ming army.

As soon as he saw the hesitation of the head of the family, he understood, the head of the family was a little afraid of the Ming army, he hurriedly boasted: "There is nothing to be afraid of these Ming troops, I pretended to be a messenger to go to their military camp to see, their military discipline is sloppy, they have no fighting spirit, and they don't even have muskets and artillery, they still have swords, guns, bows and arrows!" ”

When Shimazu Tadashi heard this, he couldn't help but say, "Oh, really? ”

Huashan Jiushou nodded vigorously and said: "Of course it's true, I only brought more than ten warships and hundreds of sailors, and they didn't dare to do anything to me." ”

Shimazu Tadashi thought about it, yes, if the Ming army is really powerful, how could it be possible for Kayama to come back.

Seeing that he had already shown an eager expression, Kayama Hisamori immediately pretended to be angry and said: "That Ming official is arrogant, he not only wants us to return to Amami Goshima, but also wants us to pay five larger islands to the Ryukyus, otherwise, he will lead the army to destroy our Satsuma Domain." ”

Shimazu Tadashi was stunned when he heard this, and paid five bigger islands to Ryukyu? Where did I come from the five bigger islands, do you want to compensate them all the Satsuma Domain, doesn't this force me to turn my face!

He thought for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "Then the officials of the Ming Kingdom really said that?" ”

Kayama Kumori added fuel and vinegar and said: "Yes, he also said that the Tokugawa general is a fart, and he also said that he wants you to ...... the head of the family." ”

Seeing his spitting appearance, Shimazu Tadashi immediately asked, "What do you want me to do?" ”

Birch Mountain Jiushou immediately "mustered up the courage" and said: "He also said that he wanted the head of the family to kneel down and kowtow to admit his mistakes." ”

"What?" Shimazu Zhongheng heard this, this fire came up all of a sudden, and the Ming Kingdom was weakened like this, and their officials were still so arrogant, Baga.

He gritted his teeth and said: "Jiushou, you say, how many warships and how many men and horses do you need to clean up those Ming troops?" ”

Birch Mountain has long guarded the railway: "Two hundred warships, twenty thousand horses are enough." ”

He has more than 200 warships and more than 20,000 horses under his Shimazu clan, of course, he will not send out all his own formation, he thought about it, and then nodded and said: "Okay, I will transfer you 100 warships and 10,000 soldiers and horses in this formation, plus more than 200 warships and more than 20,000 horses from other legions, you go with your father and teach the Ming army a good lesson." ”

Finally, it was done, and Biryama Jiushou immediately stood up and nodded and said, "Haiyi." ”

Zhang Bin didn't know that Huashan Jiushou was so favored in front of Shimazu Tadashi, and he didn't expect that it would be so simple, he thought that if he was going to advance step by step and hit the border of the Satsuma Domain, the Satsuma Domain would send troops with all its might.

By this time he had already taken Yoron Island and Okinagabu Island, but he did not rush to the north, but slowly moved the fishermen there, and each island had to be delayed for four or five days, and the defenders of the Satsuma Domain had already known that he had called, and they also sent a clipper ship to Kagoshima, the headquarters of the Satsuma Domain, to report the news.

Shimazu Tadashi was even more angry when he heard the news, and under his urging, the generals of all walks of life gathered the army in less than ten days, but as soon as the army was assembled, he was a little embarrassed, because these so-called warships under his command were inferior to the warships of the original Ming army sailors, most of them were arson boats converted from fishing boats, and most of the rest were sailing oarboats of the size of Cangshan boats, and there were only about 20 warships as big as Fuchuan, and 300 "warships" could not fit more than 30,000 people at all!

In order to transport all the horses at once, he had to send all his warships out, and he barely managed to load more than 30,000 people.

More than 400 warships and more than 30,000 horses slaughtered at the Ryukyus.

This guy, more than 400 warships sounds a bit scary, but in fact, it is more than 200 fishing boats, more than 100 small sailing boats and more than 20 large ships, and their so-called artillery is actually a bowl-mouth gun, which is worse than a tiger squat cannon.

However, it is indeed quite spectacular for more than 400 large and small ships to gather together, and the ship is still crowded with people, the arson boat that could only carry more than 10 people has squeezed out more than 20 people, the sailing boat that can only carry 30 or 40 people has been stuffed with nearly 100 people, and as for the "giant ship" as big as the fortune ship, there are even 2 or 300 people on it, but fortunately, the voyage from Kagoshima to Amami Oshima is only five days, otherwise, so many people are crowded on the ship, even if they don't starve to death, they will die of thirst!

When the "army" of the Satsuma Domain rushed to Amami Oshima, Zhang Bin was leading the army to attack Tokunoshima, which was larger than the previous islands and the islands of Rondo and Okinirabu, with a radius of 20 miles, and there were three large fishing villages on it, and the defenders of the Satsuma Domain were more than 100 people.

More than 100 people, ten teams of elite special operations battalions are not very easy to kill, not that they can't be beaten, the main reason is that they are afraid that they will not be able to surround them, let them run, then it will be troublesome, after all, the island is so big, it is difficult for them to hide wherever they go.

Zhang Bin received the news, enough to send five groups of personal guards, more than 500 people, on more than 20 wheels, up to surround the three fishing villages, a siege, and finally killed all the more than 100 defenders, but this also delayed a little time, as a result, he just led the fleet to Tokunoshima for two days, the fishermen on the island only half of the removed, sent to Amami Oshima sent the news that the Satsuma clan army had arrived at Amami Oshima.

When Zhang Bin heard the news, he "hurriedly" ordered someone to catch up with more than half of the remaining fishermen on the island of Tokura, and the island of Tokurakua suddenly jumped with chickens and dogs, crying and calling for mother, the scene was chaotic, just like fleeing, the army of the Satsuma clan found out the news, and couldn't take care of resting, and hurriedly chased after it.

In fact, as long as Zhang Bin ordered all the ships to drive at full speed, he could get rid of the Satsuma Domain army behind him in an instant, but he just didn't speed up, he just slowly hung the Satsuma Domain's army, and he "fled" for five days before "hurrying" back to Naha Port, and at this time, the Satsuma Domain's army was only about an hour away from Naha Port.

The reason why he hung the army of the Satsuma Domain like this was to attract them and make them catch up desperately, and also to let Yu Chenglong lead the fleet to ambush them.

At this time, Yu Chenglong had already led fifty Weiyuan battleships and one hundred wheels to hide near the former island less than twenty miles southwest of Naha Port, as long as he sent a signal, Yu Chenglong could immediately lead the fleet to rush up and block the retreat of the Satsuma Domain's army.

The Ming army fleet carried the fishermen in front of the "rush" to escape, proving that they were not the opponents of the Satsuma Domain's army at all, he just wanted to catch up immediately, catch Zhang Bin and humiliate him, so that he couldn't survive, he couldn't die!

It's a pity that the speed of both sides is about the same, and they have been driven to Ryukyu Island, and they haven't caught up with others, but it's also fast, as long as they rush to Naha Port, that kid can't escape if he wants to.

Kayama Hisashi didn't understand why his son was so excited, but it was a good thing to be so "belligerent", so he didn't say anything, and after rushing to the vicinity of Naha Port, he didn't rush to attack, but found a relatively gentle beach and put down all the more than 20,000 foot soldiers, and let Kayama Hisataka take it to attack the Ming army's military camp, and he rushed to the port with more than 400 warships.

Zhang Bin had already climbed the hill behind the barracks at this time, and a simple lookout had already been built on the hill, he stood on the lookout and watched the Satsuma Domain's foot soldiers landing, and couldn't help but show a smug smile, how could the more than 20,000 foot soldiers run away, because there was no boat to pick them up!

He waited for nearly half an hour, until the foot soldiers of the Satsuma Domain came ashore and the warships of the Satsuma Domain also rushed to the port, and then he ordered: "Order, Qi Yuangong and Lu Xiangsheng form a formation to defend, and Yu Chenglong is ready to attack." ”

A wave of order flags, the camp of the Qi family army under the mountain immediately sounded a burst of orders, the elite of the Qi family army rushed to the outside of the camp in a neat line, and set up a large arc-shaped array, protecting the camp and the small mountains behind, the Zhenyuan cruiser and wheel boat in the port also moved, they eliminated a strange pocket formation, there were only twenty Zhenyuan cruisers near the port, and a hundred wheel boats were separated from the left and right, gathered on both sides of the Naha harbor.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Birch Mountain Hisataka led 20,000 foot soldiers to rush to the flat ground about two miles outside the Ming army camp, he looked at the outer tortoise shell-like shield array, couldn't help sneering contemptuously, and then shouted: "The pikemen rush forward, go to open their shield array, the musketeers follow, aim and shoot, and the others rush with me!" ”

If the Ming army didn't have muskets and artillery, he could really rush away the mandarin duck array of the Qi family's army like this, but unfortunately, the Ming army not only had muskets and artillery, but also a lot of scary!

Qi Yuangong was not in a hurry to open fire, the enemy rushed to the front of the shield formation, and he did not issue any orders, and at this time, the fleet of the Satsuma Domain also rushed into the harbor of Naha, Zhang Bin immediately ordered: "Order, Yu Chenglong attack." ”

A command flag waved, and a wheel on the sea quickly spread the order to twenty miles away through a relay method, and Yu Chenglong immediately led the fleet to rush towards Naha Harbor.

On the side of the Qi family's army, seeing that the pikemen of the Satsuma Domain were less than a hundred steps away from the shield array, Qi Yuangong then ordered: "The mandarin duck formation squats, the musketeers shoot five rounds in sections, and the tiger squat cannon fires five rounds in a salvo!" ”

"Whoa", the mandarin duck array on the periphery of the Qi family's army suddenly became half a cut shorter;

"Papapa", the five thousand musketeers behind the mandarin duck array took turns firing;

"Boom, boom, boom", four hundred tiger squatting cannons let out a roar!

The foot soldiers of the Satsuma clan suddenly fell down in pieces like wheat harvesting, and Kayama Kumori looked at the front in horror, and then looked at the back, and the musket bullets in front were like rain, and the pikemen and musketeers on his side began to roll on the ground in the blink of an eye, and the cannonballs behind were like hailstones, smashing blood everywhere, and the howl was continuous.

He was dumbfounded for a moment, didn't the Ming army have no muskets and artillery, what the hell was going on?

On the port side, Birchama Hidaka was also startled when he heard the sound of cannons, he thought it was the giant ship of the Ming army in front of him who opened fire, but he didn't even make a splash on his side, he didn't understand what was going on, and suddenly there was a loud sound like a tsunami behind him, and the shells finally fell, fifty Weiyuan battleships, a round of sideside salvo is 2,500 shells, the shells are really raining, "crackling" a chaotic sound, accompanied by countless screams, just one round, at least hundreds of warships have been sunk!

The battle on the sea did not last long, fifty Weiyuan battleships, five rounds of broadside volleys, more than 10,000 shells were smashed, and the sailors of the Satsuma Domain, which were proud of them, were reduced to a pile of broken wood, and not a single warship remained.

The battle on land didn't end so quickly, because the Qi family army had only fired less than three rounds of volleys, and the foot soldiers of the Satsuma clan began to scatter and flee, and after the five rounds of volleys, there were still thousands of foot soldiers of the Satsuma clan who fled, fleeing everywhere, Qi Yuangong had to order, and the four hundred groups of mandarin duck formations scattered in four directions in pursuit.

Looking at the elite of the Qi family army and the foot soldiers of the Satsuma Clan chasing and fleeing below, Zhang Bin couldn't help but show a cruel smile on his face, little devil, this is miserable!
