A good battle, was suddenly killed out of the four black big Cheng bite gold to be disturbed, I don't know where to kill the Western gunboats disrupted the pursuit route, bombarded Liu Chongguang ship more than 70 cannons, fortunately the accuracy of these gunboats is not too high, a total of only 11 guns hit, and 6 guns bombarded the side side, but even so, still killed and wounded more than 60 people of the Iron Righteous Army.

Fortunately, these guys are also empty-hearted, and after releasing a round of artillery to force the Ming army back, they quickly retreated and fled, and did not further expand the results of the battle, so that Mao Jue had time to adjust the order of the battleships.

It was still the Black Pearl three battleships that took the lead, forming a defensive formation in a ring, protecting the island and troop carriers behind the artillery fire, and the Ming army still achieved some results, and after the warships landed, they took the opportunity to capture the Iki Mountain Pavilion and took the defensive position of the Fukushima Domain of the Japanese army here.

Unlike the Tsushima clan, which was not like the Tsushima clan, the Japanese people here still resisted, and their entry into the city was delayed until about five o'clock in the evening.

Bar ~ The corpse of a high-ranking samurai wearing the so-called Nanban carcass was pulled aside and the door was opened, his armor should be modeled on Western plate armor, which could withstand the shot of the iron cannon, but there was still a big hole in his chest and was pierced by a sharp cone bullet.

However, this thing reminded Mao Jue of today's battle again, which made his face even more gloomy, without taking another look, avoiding the blood stains on the ground, Mao Jue walked directly into the main hall of the feudal lord of the Yiqi Mountain Pavilion, followed by Kong Youde, Geng Zhongmingwen, Meng Shenrong and others came in successively.

The samurai are all cross-legged, and the custom came from the Tang Dynasty, there is not a seat in this hall, and a few pro-soldiers have been rowing for a long time before they found a bunch of Japanese military benches, but these are not the point, just sat down Mao Jue was already annoyed and shouted.

"Take Liu Chong!"

"Sin General Liu Chong, meet the general!"

It should have just come down from the battlefield, this Liu Chong's face was still spraying blood, and the cotton armor on his body also had a few knife marks, which should have been cut by a Japanese samurai sword, and he was directly carried over by his own soldiers before he came down from the battlefield.

"Lao Tzu asks you, who let you go out with a warship!"

"Master Hui, no!"

"Disobeying military orders, what about military law?"

"Kill!"

"Someone!"

Seeing that the two teams of pro-soldiers really came in with knives, the generals next to them hurriedly persuaded them, and Su Fatzi was the first to stand up and hugged his fist at Mao Jue.

"General, General Liu is also eager to kill the enemy, in order to serve the general, military law is not tolerated, it is excusable!"

"Yes, General! Now that the battle is imminent, killing the general will also shake the morale of the army! ”

The rabbit died and the fox was sad, if Liu Han was cut down today, God knows when his blood came up, he would have to lose his head in a daze, although it was not Mao Jue's relatives, Kong Youde was also helping on the side, but before the words fell, Mao Jue had already stood up angrily.

"How did you lose the battle of Quang Ninh? How did Zhang Chun's more than 40,000 troops die in the Battle of Dalinghe? Fortunately, this is a naval battle, to deal with the Japanese State, if you confront Jiannu, this is like Liu Han, disobeying military orders and attacking without authorization, so that my formation will be broken, and our Iron Righteous Army will not have to be wiped out? Military law is no small matter!"

But after all, so many people opened their mouths to plead, and it was really a big war imminent, and after a long time of fire, Mao Jue also sat back with a heavy face, and when he stretched out his hand, he pulled out the dagger he carried with him, and as soon as he gritted his teeth and cut it in the palm of his right hand, blood gushed out at once.

"General!"

Startled, Su Changmei and the others all stood up nervously and were about to run over, but Mao Jue slammed his bloody hand and forced them to sit back.

"I didn't emphasize military discipline, it was my mistake as a coach, and I punished myself here! However, this Lao Tzu also established this military rule with blood, disobeyed the military order, went out to fight without authorization, disrupted the formation, and escaped from the battle, no matter who it was! Chop!"

"The last general obeys!"

It's really ruthless to yourself, this is a real game, watching the blood dripping down, more than 20 generals all trembled and slammed their fists, even the drunkard Kong Youde did not dare to make an exception.

After dealing with this matter, Mao Jue looked at Liu Chong who was kneeling in the middle in annoyance, and snorted coldly.

"This time the general is also at fault, so I give you a chance to atone for your crimes, this time because of you, sixty-two brothers were killed and wounded, and in the next battle, you will kill sixty-two widows for Lao Tzu, and use your head to lead the army to compensate for these sixty-two families, if you can't cut it down, you will die on the battlefield, don't come back to see Lao Tzu!"

"Sin will obey!"

This disposition also made Liu Chong breathe a sigh of relief, although it was severe, but for him, it was not unattainable.

After completing this most important disposition, Mao Jue waved his sleeves with a straight face.

"Let's all go down! All the armies set up camp and rest early, and tomorrow, they will cross the sea and land and take the city in front of them!"

"The last general obeys!"

…………

The Wa Kingdom is a typical feudal system, layers of feudalism, from the shogun to the following daimyo, retainers, samurai, peasants, the barriers are clear, so the vast majority of the territory is also like the West, building castles in high places, one to demonstrate the authority of the daimyo, suppress the people, and the other is also a military defense function, this Iki Mountain Pavilion is no exception, although the castle tower is not large, but it is also the highest building on Iki Island, standing here, with a large telescope, you can vaguely glimpse the main island of Kyushu Island on the other side.

A bay embraced a large port city, and it was evident that the city had become tumultuous and restless tonight, and the streets were full of lanterns and shadows, and on the shore, four Western gunboats and the ships that had escaped were dangling in the harbor.

Today, Mao Jue's miscalculation is missing, he forgot his goal, Nagasaki Port, the largest port in the Japanese country, is still the trading place of the Dutch East India Company.

On the one hand, the Netherlands did bring wealth to the shogunate, as well as advanced weapons such as muskets and artillery, and on the other hand, the Dutch East India Company was also obedient, did not spread Catholicism, did not mix with the domestic politics of the Japanese state, and also brought intelligence about Southeast Asia to the Japanese state.

Even in the Shimabara Rebellion, which relied on the Catholic uprising, instead of extending a hand to their fellow believers, these believers of God sent gunboats to bombard Shimabara Castle and sided with the Shinto pagans.

Then Nagasaki, the only window of their trade, was under fire, and it is not surprising that these Dutch red-haired devils have made a move.

Fortunately, things have not reached the point of being out of control, even if there are four Western gunboats, they are just merchant ships, like the Black Pearl in Pirates of the Caribbean, only more than forty meters, a row of gun bays with an open-air battery on the deck plus a piece, each ship is only thirty-two guns, and only the lower deck is heavy artillery, especially now Mao Jue's artillery mounts are more advanced than Western warships, in terms of firepower, they are not opponents.

However, in Mao Jue's plan, the plan to annihilate the Japanese naval division and land directly from the port to occupy Nagasaki was declared bankrupt, and he had to find a way to throw the army ashore, and then find another way to attack the city.

Lying in front of the telescope, staring at Nagasaki Port in the night, Mao Jue's pupils seemed to be faintly flushed with a layer of red.

This fight against Japan is not a whim of Mao Jue, a hot head, indeed, there is a hatred factor for later generations, but the bigger source is the current environmental persecution, especially after the Battle of the Daling River.

Mao Jue no longer wants to entrust his life to the hands of those laymen, he luckily avoided the battle of Dalinghe this time, what about the next Songjin battle? There is also the battle of King Qin, where the Qing army entered the customs five times, and the erosive battle that suppressed the peasant army, Mao Jue is not a loyal minister of this era, he is not willing to fight for his life for the sake of being mean, suspicious, and overweight, and his mother's blind command of Emperor Chongzhen.

What if, can there be a reason to implicate Donggang Town in Lee's North Korea?

War with the Japanese seems to be a good excuse.

And with today's Dongjiang, far from being Jiannu's opponent, if you want to survive in the extinction attack of Huang Taiji, you must develop and strengthen yourself, Yuan Chonghuan originally wanted to seize Dongjiang, that is, to trade with North Korea to earn military salaries, but now Dongjiang has this convenience is far from enough for Mao Jue. Land, population, weapons, he lacks everything!

However, looking around, to the west is Houjin, and it can't be provoked for the time being, and to the east is the Li Dynasty, which belongs to the alliance and can't be moved, and to the south is the Ming Dynasty, if you try it, then it seems that only the Wa Kingdom can become a stepping stone, and draw flesh and blood from Little Japan to strengthen himself, and Mao Jue has no burden in his heart.

As for whether he will provoke another big war between the Li Dynasty and the Japanese Kingdom, and whether the angry Japanese people can attack the peninsula and burn and plunder again, Mao Jue can't take care of it, he is a person who is about to die of thirst in the desert, where does he still have the heart to hand the last bottle of water in his hand to others?

So Nagasaki Castle in front of him, he is determined to win! Whether it is to provoke a war, or for the children of the population, money and materials.

"Don't think about it, tomorrow the army will wait for your command, I will boil some porridge for you, drink it while it is hot, and then rest early!"

Just when Mao Jue was distracted, a soft exchange suddenly sounded behind him, and when he turned around, it was Adriana, her little face was dirty, full of straw and black ash, and a jar of porridge also exuded a mushy smell.

However, before the girl became angry, she stopped snorting, reached out and grabbed her waist, and finally turned her head, and suddenly opened her fist to grab Nagasaki Castle, which was still noisy in the night, in her hands, and immediately hugged Adriana, and Mao Jue entered the castle tower without looking back............
