Governor Takamatsu also had a hard time in Minamisata, where he had 5,000 soldiers. However, Kagoshima Honjo sent another 5,000 people one after another, and a small city like Minamisatsuma with a team of 10,000 people was really a little unbearable.

Akito was as long as he had disappeared, and he was anxious to wait in Minami Satsuma.

When he learned that the Ming warships frequently appeared in the sea off Kagoshima Main Castle, he thought that the place where the Ming people landed might be there.

As soon as he thought of this, he sent all the ashigaru towards Kagoshima Honjo, which was much stronger than the ashigaru in the castle, although it didn't have enough to eat.

At least they could eat two rice balls per meal, so the group of ashigaru made their way to the city despite some complaints.

Just as they were halfway there, they were told by someone sent by the city that the city did not need their support and that it was better for them to stay in Minamissatsuma.

Shimazu Nakayoko had already frightened tens of thousands of ashigaru, and when he heard that another 5,000 ashigaru was coming, he was so frightened that people immediately drove these ashigaru back to Minamissatsu.

When the hungry and tired Chichishigaru returned to Minamisatasuma, Governor Takamatsu had no choice but to place them in a tent outside the castle.

This tossing made the ashigaru people complain, and they were driven back without taking a sip of water after their hard journey. Dissatisfaction was in everyone's mind, including the samurai who led the ashigaru.

At this moment, the shadow of the sail appeared on the surface of the sea and obscured the sky, and the tall Galen galleon, the fast Flying Fish clipper, and various sea firmament and fortune boats appeared in the open sea of Minamissatsuma.

It was the first time for the Japanese to see such a large fleet, and everyone was stunned on the spot.

Governor Takamatsu reacted the least, and he shouted loudly, "Dock! Hold on to the docks and don't let the Akito land! ”

His orders were carried out by samurai of all ranks, and the five thousand ashigaru outside the castle were immediately taken out of the barracks and headed for the docks.

The ashigaru were kicked from the ground by the samurai and dragged with heavy steps to the docks. They raised their bamboo guns and stared at the Ming warships on the sea.

The smallest thing that catches the eye are the clippers with low sides, which sail into port and depart quickly.

It wasn't long before the tall Galen boats came into view, and two miles away the big ones stopped and turned their sides at the neatly lined ashigaru on the shore.

When Governor Takamatsu saw the Nishiyi plywood ship stop, he knew it was not good, and when he saw those sea ships crossing the hull, he immediately ordered Ashigaru to retreat.

But it was too late, and Takamatsu's biggest mistake was to calculate the attack distance of the Ming artillery, according to the large barrel of the Wa Kingdom.

Akito stopped two miles from the coast, and the ashigaru stood two miles from the sea.

The distance of four miles is a distance that the big cylinder of the Japanese Kingdom does not dare to imagine at all, and the big cylinder that can hit such a distance is all thousands of pounds of heavy big guys, and it is impossible to be installed on the ship.

Habitual thinking took his toll, and Alan laughed when he saw the Japanese in a tight formation on the shore.

The Japanese were so cute that they lined up on the shore for him to bombard. He decided that when the shelling was next, he must fight two more rounds, otherwise he would be sorry for the Japanese people to cooperate so much.

With the order to bombard, one by one the artillery windows were opened, and one by one the artillery windows were pushed out of the artillery windows to aim at the Japanese people on the shore.

Ten Sea Shark warships roared, and hundreds of guns began shelling at the Japanese people on the shore. One after another, the cannonballs hit the Japanese who were still standing in place in a daze, and when the first Japanese were torn apart by the cannonballs, the ashigaru people were stunned.

I saw that after a cannonball shattered two people, it bounced up again and broke two legs before plunging into the sand and no longer moving. The ashigaru people were stunned by the devastation caused by this shell, and they suffered four casualties in just one shell.

And what about the shelling that followed? Soon the Changxing army gave an answer, and more than half of the shells fell into the phalanx of the Japanese people in the first round.

If it weren't for the softness of the land by the sea, the shells could not bounce continuously after they landed, otherwise the lethality would definitely increase exponentially.

Even so, the first round of shelling caused heavy casualties to the 5,000 ashigaru on the shore, and the casualties of more than 1,000 frightened the Japanese people.

Governor Takamatsu's order to retreat had just arrived at this time, and the Japanese could no longer care about the formation. They fled to Minamisatsuma Castle in a swarm, and only the tall and thick walls could give them a sense of security.

The artillery bombardment of the Changxing army did not stop as the Japanese fled, and their shells chased the fleeing Japanese all the way to Minamisatsuma Castle.

Minamisata, which was nearly ten miles from the sea, became Ashigaru's umbrella, and as soon as they entered the castle, they gasped for breath. The shelling of the Akito was so terrible that the shelling alone left nearly half of the people lying on the ground.

Governor Takamatsu looked gloomily at the Akito warships that were still shelling, and with the presence of these warships, his plan to drive Akito into the sea would never come true.

Zhang Dou stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the fleeing widows in front of him, and just said a one-word comment: "Rabble!" ”

Peasants who have not undergone rigorous training, no matter how fierce their personalities, are a rabble. It's okay for such an army to fight a good fight, and as long as it encounters a slight setback, it will definitely disperse in a hurry.

"Let the soldiers land!" As soon as Zhang Dou's order arrived, Changxingjun successively got into the small boat from the big boat. Groups of Changxingjun rowed small boats to the shore, and some boats were cleaning up the debris sunk by the Japanese near the pier.

As long as a channel is cleared, the sea ships of the Changxing Army can dock directly on the pier. Those war horses can also land, and the thousand cavalry of the Changxing Army will also land on the Wa Kingdom and deal a fatal blow to the short-legged Wa people.

The landing did not go well, and the number of dinghys was limited. There were only about 1,000 soldiers who landed at one time, and the clearing of the channel was not very smooth.

The Japanese filled the boat with sediment and then scuttled it in the channel. It took a lot of time for the Changxing Army to clean up these alone, and when Zhang Dou learned that the channel could be cleared early tomorrow morning at the earliest, he shook his head depressedly.

The Japanese were so ruthless that in order to prevent the Changxing army from landing, they even blocked their own waterways.

Looking at the soldiers of the Changxing Army who were constantly gathering on the shore, Zhang Dou made a decision. Regardless of the cavalry, as soon as the 5,000 Army landed, it immediately launched an attack on South Satsuma.

Tao Lei, Lan Guitian and Ma Jingbo sat in a small boat, chatting while rowing to the shore.

"Horse boy! Wait until you enter the city, you have to keep your eyes open, don't miss the gift for your brother Lan's son! Tao Lei joked.

Ma Jingbo took it seriously, he hurriedly said, "How come? Brother Tao, don't worry! When you enter the city, the horse boy won't blink, if there is anything good, he will definitely get it back for Brother Lan! ”

Lan Guitian said: "As long as the brothers' hearts are reached, you must pay attention to safety when you enter the city." It doesn't matter if the gift is not a gift, you must be careful to protect yourself! ”
