Chapter 403: Capture Matsuura Castle

The battlefield was surprisingly quiet, the sea chain and the sea snake had already led their own people to cover up the past, Zhen Qian walked to the gate of the Japanese camp with light smoke, the fire was still burning, at this time the camp could not enter at all, and when the fire was extinguished, only a piece of ruins would remain.

Zhen Qian didn't have the idea of extinguishing the fire, there weren't many people left around him, and he obviously couldn't do these things.

Qingyan said with some regret: "There should be a lot of baggage in the barracks, it's a pity that they have all been burned out?" ”

Zhen Qian didn't expect Qingyan to say these words, maybe this is the difference between a woman and a man! With a wry smile: "What's the pity, you haven't seen how poor most of the Japanese soldiers have become, there are not a few pieces of armor on their bodies, and some of the armor is still made of bamboo, what good things can you expect from the Japanese barracks?" ”

When I was cleaning the battlefield just now, I found that a lot of the armor on the Japanese soldiers was actually made of bamboo, as for those weapons, they were also so miserable that they fell off the scum, and if they were stronger, they could directly break the sword, Zhen Qian tried it and found that these weapons couldn't cut the chain mail on his body at all, and such an army was a big joke.

Zhen Qian re-assessed the strength of the Japanese army in his heart, the spirit of not fearing death is good, the weapons and equipment are too poor, the personal quality of the soldiers is not high, most of the Japanese are not tall, and the body shape is also on the thin side, you can find that it is malnourished at a glance, and the soldiers are like this, you can imagine ordinary Japanese people.

When I returned to the camp, it was not yet dark, and this was the time when people were most sleepy, but at this time I was in a very good spirit, standing on the beach with a pair of bloody eyes and waiting for the sun to rise from the sea.

The light smoke put a dress on Zhen Qian, the water vapor on the beach was very heavy, and the early morning was also the coldest time of the day, he took a deep breath of the sea breeze with a fishy smell, spit out all the air in his lungs, and reached out to hold the light smoke in his arms, at this time he didn't want to say anything, silence was the best.

The waves washed up on the beach over and over again, and retreated again and again, there were many things washed to the shore by the waves, beautiful shells, unknown seafood could not attract Zhen Qian's attention, only when a little light appeared on the sea, the whole sky lit up at once.

The sunlight was dazzling, making Zhen Qian's eyes squint involuntarily, and the world became clear at this moment, and the whole person was wrapped in light at once, looking very holy.

Jianzhen sat on a rock by the sea and chanted, looking at the past from a distance, it was so sacred and solemn, this was the third time that Jianzhen had gone to the country of Wa for the deceased.

Compared with Jianzhen, Zhen Qian found that he needed the sunshine even more, and he knew that what Fujiwara Shuxiong said was a lie, which was helping the tiger to abuse, and he seemed to be more despicable than Fujiwara Shuxiong.

At this time, you should stay away from Jianzhen, only in this way can you forget this seemingly meaningless killing, and firmly tell yourself that these things you do are right, there is no need to discuss the inferior roots of the Japanese people with Jianzhen, this kind of thing Jianzhen will not do and can't do, only you can do it.

The sea snake came back, it was to send the wounded soldiers back, and the sea chain led the troops to chase after Matsuura Castle, and the battle was planned until now.

Zhen Qian now needs to consider the impact of this battle on Hizen Province, Yamamoto Isoroku and Toyotomi Hideyoshi were sent to interrogate and capture prisoners, and learn some information about Hizen Province from their mouths, and it is inevitable to make mistakes when they always guess.

Fujiwara estimated that he would not come back after capturing Matsuura Castle, and he and the maritime merchants also needed to find some Japanese to help repair the sea ships, which were very important, and even related to whether he could gain a firm foothold in the Goho Islands.

Around noon, Wang Tianxing finally came back, sweating and drinking a large bowl of cold boiled water before panting and said: "Songpu City has been captured, but Shao Er Dongshang has run away, and now many people are sent out to look for it, and ...... should not be able to escape." ”

Zhen Qian frowned, he didn't expect that the Japanese people also had war horses, and it was said in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty that when the Japanese sent an envoy to see Cao Cao, the king of Wei, they saw the war horses and didn't know what they were, indicating that the Japanese did not produce horses, and I didn't expect that there were already Japanese people who brought war horses to the Japanese from the north of the Central Plains, and there were quite a few of them, which was their own mistake.

It's not surprising that Shao Erdong can run away with a horse, this is a big hidden danger, but this is not his own trouble, it should be the trouble of the Fujiwara clan.

"It's okay that Shao Er Dongshang ran away, at least after Fujiwara Shuxiong knew the news, he didn't have time to care about us, we have to contact Zhen Jiu now, can't this matter be delayed for too long? You take a break, and then take someone to find some Japanese craftsmen to come back, the more the better, coercion and temptation can be used by any means, and there is no need to consider any impact, and then inform Fujiwara Shuo to prepare more food for us, we may have to live here for a while? ”

After the sea snake came back, he immediately asked the sea snake to drive the only two remaining sea ships to the Wufeng Islands to look for Zhen Jiu, calculating the time, Zhen Jiu should arrive at the Wufeng Islands a month earlier than himself, and if he wanted to do something in the Japanese country, he couldn't do without Zhen Jiu in secret.

In the evening, one of Fujiwara's servants and two maritime merchants returned to camp and brought Zhen Qian the latest battle report of Songpu Castle.

Fujiwara brushed the male arrived at Matsuura Castle around the fourth watch, at this time the sky was not yet bright, and the city gate would not be opened until the fifth watch, and there was already a sparse crowd at the city gate, and he saw a group of menacing people killing him, and thought that the robber who occupied the mountain was the king of the mountain, and threw down the garbage and turned around and ran, since there was no one who even notified the soldiers guarding the city.

The city wall of Songpu City is only more than one zhang, dozens of sailors have long been prepared, with a long bamboo pole in front of a person, sprint a few steps to send people to the city, Shao Er Dongshang has already taken away the elite in the city, leaving only some old, weak, sick and disabled, seeing a fierce robber rushed to the city, even did not have the courage to resist and scattered.

Fujiwara Shuxiong rushed to the city with people and quickly occupied the guardian house, immediately sent people to control the four gates, and then pulled out the sleeping officials in Matsuura City one by one from the bed, and did not forget to let people occupy the barracks, and it was almost noon when everything stabilized.

The warehouse of the Guardian Mansion was opened by the Maritime Merchant's men, and there was indeed a lot of property in it, which was enough to make up for the losses caused by the Maritime Merchant's storm, and one by one they were like chicken blood, ready to rob Matsuura City again.

Fujiwara Brusho was not carried away by the victory, and gathered several maritime stewards and asked them to restrain their subordinates, now that Matsuura Castle has belonged to him, Fujiwara Brusho doesn't want to see a tattered Matsuura Castle, let alone offend all the officials and nobles in Matsuura Castle, and if he wants to govern Hizen Country in the future, he has to count on these talents.
