Chapter 151. Nagasaki fell
The tactics are the same, in the battle of the Daling River, Huang Taiji made a trick and used fake reinforcements to coax Zu Dashou out of the city, and this time it is similar, but it was not the Ming army that captured Nagasaki, but the Japanese themselves.
Mao Jue beheaded sixteen samurai who had lurked in and more than forty Neiying, but the Tokugawa samurai in the city didn't know.
The agreed code sounded, and Mao Jue's trench, the outer perimeter of the earthen enclosure where the Japanese laborers were kept, there was a bang, the earth was splashed, and a large piece of the wall collapsed on the spot. Wearing sunflower patterns and dark armor, the Tokugawa samurai casually threw a sledgehammer and rushed through the hole with a katana. On the other side, more than a hundred Li Chao soldiers were stunned as if they were frightened, and after a few seconds of stunnedness, they let out a miserable howl of fear, turned around and fled to the depths of the trench. The backs of these fleeing figures, the shaking heads, and the seduced Tokugawa samurai showed bloodthirsty and murderous eyes in their pupils, and the corners of their mouths hung a cruel smile.
Holding their katanas high and shouting, the black samurai army rushed in, but just as their swords were about to kiss their heads and have a bloody feast, there was a sudden bang behind them.
Dust and dirt everywhere!
From the Spring and Autumn Period, China's city defense on the meteor Weng city law, the city gate followed by a small city, there is a city gate inside, when the enemy broke through the first layer of the city gate, excited to rush into the city only to find that it was a trap, there is a layer of strong city gate and hundreds of archers on the city wall condescending to leave the siegers, is all over the ground to die.
This is the case of the turtle in the urn and the taunt.
Now this earthen enclosure also constitutes the function of Weng City, the mud bags used as shelters at the head of the city are directly thrown down the gap, piles of sandbags block the Tokugawa samurai behind the outside of the earthen wall, and the inside is also stunned to staggered back a few parts, leaning together, more than a thousand Tokugawa samurai like wolves in a trap, drawing their swords and leaning into a circle, fierce and cruel looking around.
However, in the next second, their eyes changed from fierce to desperate, indeed, there is no gunpowder on a rainy day, but it is not said that there is no oil, and one of the trade materials between Tsushima and North Korea is oil.
The two or three hundred barrels of oil that Mao Jue pulled from Tsushima Island were of great use, and the timber brought by the ships from the island was soaked in oil, and then it was ignited by torches, and the black smoke that was choking in the humidity filled the air, and the crackling pile of wood was thrown into the earthen fence, and all the people who did all this on the city were Japanese people.
The snake can't be headless, among the more than 10,000 Japanese laborers, then dozens of local tyrant ninja leaders who are towards the Tokugawa family have all been eliminated, and their subordinates are either facing purges, or they can only take refuge in Inoue Totaro and several other local tyrants who are forced to cooperate with Mao Jue, control these hundreds of people, and the remaining 10,000 people are obediently fiddled, relying on the rumors of those ruffian ninjas, Mao Jue used fear to firmly control more than 10,000 people.
While directing the firewood pile to be thrown down, Inoue Totaro was still screaming like crazy.
"Kill! Kill! Anyway, we are all classified as Tong Li Dynasty, and the shogunate wants to kill us all, just like those who believe in foreign religions, anyway, we are going to die, it is better to kill him before, samurai! Hahaha! Samurai are also scared of blood!"
In his pupils, a perverted excitement and hatred twisted.
The samurai's privilege, Miao Zi with a sword, this sword is not a white belt, if a peasant, merchant, untouchable, etc. dares to show the slightest intention of resistance, it is the so-called rudeness, and the samurai has the right to kill the entire family of the peasant without any punishment.
Not to mention the peasants, even if they were rich merchants with a lot of wealth, the samurai made him kowtow and kneel, eat and drink urine, they didn't dare to resist at all, and could only passively dedicate.
Under this infinite privilege, the rest of the class was bullied by the samurai, and you can imagine how great the class confrontation between the two was! Anyway, when it came to this, the Japanese people on the wall who threw thatched piles and bundles of firewood also fell into madness at the instigation of Inoue Totaro, and the fierce poisonous fire was thrown into it in all directions in a monster-like laughter, and piles of burning firewood filled the small earthen fence, and the firelight reflected the distorted faces.
At first, those samurai were still leaning together and scolding and threatening, but as the fire became bigger and bigger, the poisonous smoke in the sky forced the space smaller and smaller, and more than a thousand Tokugawa samurai also began to be afraid, some rushed into the fire at all, and were quickly burned into a big fireball, screaming and falling into the fire, some endured a strong cough, kneeling on the ground with tears and begging for mercy, and some couldn't bear the pressure, so they simply pulled out their knives and committed suicide, and the blood in their necks splashed in the fire and made a popping sound, The corpses quickly withered and blackened in the flames. In the beacon fire, it is as miserable as hell on earth.
At first, I was scolding and trying to move away from those dirt bags, but the fire and black smoke became more and more intense, and in the terrible screams of this hell, an emotion called fear began to eat away at people's courage, and after a few minutes, the two or three hundred samurai blocking outside also collapsed, and no longer cared about any comrades, one by one the guys fled to the gable in panic, and some ran too quickly, and even fell into the mud, throwing the katana that represented the identity and shoes to the ground.
Originally, the rumors spread by Inoue's ninjas, and the Japanese who were afraid that the shogunate would kill themselves and others who helped the Ming army and had to stand up and fight, were still full of indescribable fear, but seeing that they were shouting five or six on weekdays, threatening to behead and behead at every turn with a katana, and even forcing people to seal their wives and daughters, the guys who had to stammer, now they are one step at a time, their faces are gray, their faces are covered with blood, and they flee because of fear, which is established in the hearts of the Japanese people. The samurai's ferocious majesty is like a sand sculpture on the seashore, washed away by the tide.
Countless thin and dirty heads poked out of the trenches, and their twisted and hideous faces were full of ferocity, when the feudal rules were broken, the destruction caused by the mob of the Japanese people was no less than that of the peasant rebels of the Ming Dynasty, and the firewood pile on the earthen wall was almost thrown away, throwing down more than a thousand Tokugawa samurai waiting to die, and the Japanese people on the wall also slid down, in front of the gable, thousands of agitated mobs climbed along the gable, but the bows and arrows and iron cannons soaked in the heavy rain had no strength at all, The arrows shot under the wall pierced the mob's body shallowly, or even at all, which aroused the brutality and anger of the mob.
At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Mao Jue completed the defeat of the Nabeshima Army and the Kuroda Army, and when the Hui Army returned, Nagasaki Castle, which had been holding out for more than ten days, had fallen.
"Hahaha, rice! I've grown rice all my life, and the first time I ate rice in my life was in the hands of Koreans, these are all mine, hahahaha!"
Kicked open the door of the rice grain store, a few Japanese madmen lifted the rice grain in the box like that, some people desperately stuffed it into their mouths, some people knelt on the ground and cried, the cloth shop, the gold shop, and the shops next to it were also pry open, and on the avenue, the ragged Japanese people even took women's clothes and put them on their bodies.
Few people are normal these days.
I don't know when the heavy rain will stop, but Nagasaki in the evening is not beautiful at all, and the turmoil in the streets is not only those outside the widows, but also the poor people in the local town, hooligans, and ruffians have also come out to make trouble, and even many poor samurai have joined the ranks of taking advantage of the fire to rob, and I have long seen those poor people who are unhappy with the rich merchant townspeople smashing open the shops one by one, smashing and looting the things inside, and some are even setting the houses on fire, the sun is gradually turning west, but the raging fire is burning rapidly, The night sky of Nagasaki is illuminated.
It's really like the end of the world has come, in the fire, some rich businessmen desperately cry for help, but no one helps him at all, there is no need to find a corner, the usually moving rich lady or singer geisha is directly torn by the mob and tears her clothes, and she is on the spot, and half of the city is groaning. Rules are rules, even the most oppressive feudal slave rules, once broken, the consequences are still disastrous.
In this scene, even Mao Jue, the person who opened Pandora's box with his own hands, was powerless to restrain it, the only thing he could do was to take the lead and occupy the domain first.
On the street, the gunshots that had been quiet for a day rang out fiercely, the gunpowder of the Iron Righteous Army was kept in deerskin bags, and it was wrapped into a fixed paper shell bullet with cowhide, it was indeed helpless when the heavy rain poured, but the weather was sunny in the evening, it was taken out and could be used directly, the situation was out of control to the point that even the Ming army would encounter a mob attack when entering the city, advancing along the street, Shen Rong's third regiment had to shoot each other alternately, and on the street, the bodies of the mob that were killed were lying on the road ahead.
Fan Mansion.
The guard samurai at the door did not know where to flee for a long time, which means that the majestic official palace of the shogunate has not escaped the looting of the mob, more than a dozen Nagasaki mobs wearing short black clothes are carrying bulging cloth bags, and are walking out excitedly, but they are facing a group of Ming troops, who were supposed to put down their things and scatter their legs to run away from Mao Jue's flintlock pistol helped again, seeing that the iron righteous army was holding "iron cannons", these mobs were greedy from their hearts, and evil was born from the guts, and suddenly copied out the knife and rushed upward, The Ming army was naturally not polite, and he picked up the musket and shot it for a while, and the remaining two wanted to run, but they were directly grabbed by the bayonet on their backs, and they also settled the account.
But what they fell out of made the Iron Righteous Army's breathing become short.
With a bang, the pockets were scattered all over the ground, and the shiny gold coins became particularly dazzling in the firelight tonight, and one of the iron rebels subconsciously squatted down and reached out to pick it up, while the other two ran to the rest of the bags, but then there was a bang, and everyone's footsteps were frozen there.
It was also shiny, and the leader's revolver was taken out by him, and the sound came from the sound of the drum buckle, and seeing the gloomy face of his leader, the soldier who had just stretched out his hand almost held his breath and retracted his hand.
The wealth is moving, even if the formation is long, his heart is beating wildly, and when he takes a deep breath, he quickly looks away.
"You! You! Pack things together!"
"Quickly send someone to inform the general!"
About twenty minutes later, the treasury of the military office was already full of Ming troops standing guard with Ming Huanghuang bayonets, surrounded by the guards of the brigade, Mao Jue finally came He knocked on the walnut shell for so many days, and finally knocked out the delicious nuts in front of him.
The door of the warehouse had already been pushed open and half-hidden, and with torches, Wen Meng was the first to rush in, and several guards followed to light the candles on the wall, and a golden light instantly filled Mao Jue's eyes.
