Rushing... The warships on the sea are gathered, shaking up the waves, the Nanban warships are current, the ironclad ships are in the center, the troop transports, and the baggage ships are close behind, and there are all kinds of guards at the back, small morning boats.

"Enter Hinata-Nada!" The lookout shouted.

"Continue sailing southwest!" The first warship was the Nine Ghosts Yuanlong, who was responsible for towing the army.

Rushing... The ship turned the rudder and headed south along the coastline.

Ito Yubei stood on the boat, looking out at the land in the distance, where was Hyuga, the original territory of his Ito family. Now... Running back and forth on the shore... It's already the Ashigaru of the Shimazu family.

"What? What to look at again? A gentle voice came from behind him.

Ito Yubing looked back and saw that it was Hosokawa Motokatsu.

"See the young master!" Ito Yubing hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, respectfully.

"Is it because you see the old soil and miss it?" Hosokawa Motokatsu naturally knew where it was.

"Yes." Ito tried his best to avoid his mood swings, but his voice trembled slightly.

"Don't worry! We will be back. At that time, I will definitely make decisions for you and regain the old territory! Hosokawa Motokatsu's eyes were firm and gave assurance.

In fact, as early as before the dispatch of troops, Hosokawa Nobumoto privately communicated with Motokatsu and gave preliminary instructions on the reward of Kyushu. Among them is this Ito Yubing, who made meritorious contributions to the diplomacy of the Kamishi family and subsequent battles.

"Thank you, young master!" Ito couldn't help but shed a few tears, and his years of hard work paid off. In this Kyushu expedition, he will also serve as the lead of the crusade army.

"But... Since you've come here, you can't go back empty-handed, right? Always keep some souvenirs. Hosokawa Motokatsu smiled wickedly.

"What do you mean—" Ito asked with some uncertainty.

"Pass the order! Close to the shore! Hit me hard! I'm going to let the whole of Kyushu know! I'm Motokatsu Hosokawa! Here it comes! Hosokawa Motokatsu's heroic finger seemed to tremble throughout Kyushu.

"Yes!" Murakami Motoyoshi, who was behind him, immediately received the order, and then turned around and gave the order to the water army.

Whew... The flag bearer frequently waved the small two-color flag in his hand and gave orders to the detachments.

"The route is westerly! Drive along the coast! Starboard artillery ready! "The vanguard of the navy, under the command of the Nine Ghosts Yuanlong, gradually leaned inland.

"Quick! Look there! Oh, my God! So many warships! "Nagahama is a chaotic town full of fleeing townspeople, and it's a commercial port with a small amount of trade, but it can also increase tax revenue and bring economic benefits to Nobeoka Castle behind it.

"Quick! Go and tell the lord of the castle! Let's just say... Let's just say... The Hosokawa family called! "The archon guarding here looked out to sea in amazement, and the large banner of the warship was waving in the wind, embroidered with Hosokawa pine and water chestnuts!

"Yes!" One ashigaru took the order, ran backwards in a panic, and accidentally fell.

"Big... My lord... That... So what do we do? The remaining dozen or so ashigaru looked timidly at the approaching ships, their swarthy muzzles aimed at them.

"Run!" The consul screamed, turned around and ran. If you don't run, you're still here waiting to die.

"Wow!" The crowd dispersed in a hurry, seizing the road and fleeing.

Knock Click! Knock knock! Cannons rumble on the sea, fire dragons flicker, and bullets fly!

Boom! Boom! A cannon bombarded a wooden house, and suddenly the trees were broken and flying, and it was a mess.

Boom! Cracking sound! A cannon bombarded a stall, and the bottles and cans were smashed all over the place, and the slag was all over the ground.

Bang Bang Bang! Poof! "Ugh!" "Ahh Seven or eight of them were shot several times and fell to the ground.

This is the Hosokawa family's latest bullet species: grape bomb! A net bag is used to bundle several spherical iron marbles or lead marbles into a bunch, which resembles a bunch of grapes, hence the name grape bullets. Although the range is not as good as that of solid bullets, a single shot fired at close range can knock out dozens of enemy soldiers in an instant, which is enough to break up an infantry squadron. In naval battles, large swaths of enemy officers and sailors can be knocked down, and the goal of paralyzing enemy ships can be achieved.

A while ago, the national collapse of the Otomo family also used a similar scattershot mode, but their family was poor, mainly based on stones and lead bullets, so his kind is also called "stone fire arrow".

"Hahaha! Enjoyable! Beat! One more round! Hosokawa Motokatsu used a monocular to see the enemy who was beaten in the harbor on the shore, waved his hand, and gave another order.

"Yes! The young master has an order! Another round of shelling! Murakami Motoyoshi immediately shouted at the flag hand.

Whew... Call... The flag bearer waved a small two-color flag according to the order.

"Reload! Starboard shelling ready! "The warships received the order and began to clear and reload.

"Uh... But the young master... There are also ... Ordinary people..."Ito Yubing hesitated, after all, they might have been his own people before.

"Humph! Anyway! It's to let them know how good we are! Spread it out, so that more people may know about it. In this way, the number of peasants who blindly followed the Shimazu family was reduced, and more killings could be avoided indirectly. "Hosokawa Motokatsu is not a ruthless person, he knows the cruelty of war, but if he can use the lives of a small number of people to wake up the majority of people not to die blindly, he... Willing to kill to kill.

"Yes, I misunderstood the meaning of the young master. Please forgive me, young master! "Ito Yubei is convinced, this kind of realm is beyond his reach.

"Fire!" A roar!

Knock knock! Knock knock! The second round of shelling began, and it was even more intense than the first.

Boom! Boom! Splinters!

"Uhh One of the townspeople was directly knocked away by the huge force and fell heavily to the side of the road, missing an arm.

"Wow!" One of the townspeople collapsed to the ground, and it was hell in front of him, and his legs did not listen to him. With a snap, his face was splashed with blood, and when he looked closely, the usually high consul had turned into a headless corpse at this time.

Boom! Boom! "Wow! Run! "The people in the harbor only hate Mom and Dad for giving them two legs, it's a massacre!

"Newspaper... "A footlight and unkempt ran into Yangang City, and at this time, the people in the city also heard the sound of cannons, and they all looked at the tragic situation not far away, pointing and pointing, and their hearts were frightened.

"Oops! Fast! Run! "To... I'm going to tell Saburo that I can't follow the Shimazu family! "Yes, yes, it's miserable! That's amazing! It's like the gods are angry! The townspeople who had escaped from the harbor were also apprehensive, and they did not want to go again at all, and were ready to go back immediately to persuade their relatives and friends who were still serving.

"Hahaha! Good! Keep sailing! Shelling along the way! Hosokawa Motokatsu saw that the effect was good, so he simply did it a little better.

"Bah! Creak! Oh! The ashigaru families on board saw that after only two rounds of shelling, the entire harbor was reduced to ruins, and they immediately shouted in unison, and their morale was greatly boosted. I want to talk about "Mortals Through the Law of Survival" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
