Chapter 564: Shut That Idiot!

Chapter 564: Shut That Idiot! (Page 1/1)

In a stalemate situation, the two sides invariably used the trump card, and the 1,000 cavalry brought by the Tokugawa shogunate rushed from the rear of the shogunate and went straight to the right flank of Satsuma.

And the ironclad samurai of the Shimazu family also rushed to the right flank of the shogunate, and the attacks of both sides were launched almost simultaneously, and the changes on the battlefield restarted for a while.

Ma Bao commanded the firecrackers to shoot judgmentally, and the battles in the past few days have made the firecrackers form a conditioned reflex. In the face of the arrows that come at him, he doesn't care about it at all, and still repeats the monotonous action.

After discovering that the shogunate cavalry was attacking, Ma Bao was keenly aware of the shogunate's intentions. Use the cavalry to defeat the ashigaru, and then drive the ashigaru to attack his own firecracker phalanx.

As long as the chaotic ashigaru is set in front, the cavalry can easily approach the musketeers. Once the cavalry is tightened, it is a catastrophe for the musketeers who have no melee weapons.

But this tactic, the Changxing army had already learned it several times on the Jurchen leather, and as long as the firecrackers did not mess with the cavalry, even if they wanted to get closer, they would pay a heavy price.

The cavalry slaughtered the foot soldiers in the melee, and they rushed into Samosa's ashigaru and slashed and slashed, directly crushing the exhausted Satsuma's right flank.

Unfortunately for Mabao, the Secret Service was exhausted in the previous days of the battle. The new task force has not yet been selected, otherwise it will definitely teach the shogunate a profound lesson.

Watching the cavalry drive the rout towards the side of the firecracker, the firecracker immediately turned into a phalanx. Coupled with an attack on the flanks, and at the same time shouting loudly, let the scattered Ashigaru run to the sides, not in front of the firecracker.

Most of the ashigaru obeyed the order and withdrew to both sides, but a few still ran towards the phalanx of the firecrackers.

Ma Bao immediately ordered to fire, and a continuous burst of fire firecrackers fired. Both Satsuma's Ashigaru and the shogunate cavalry were knocked to the ground by the lead bullets fired from the firearms.

The shogunate's cavalry generals were particularly conspicuous, and they were afraid that others would not know his identity.

Ma Bao held the immortal gun at a distance of more than a hundred steps, and easily knocked this person off the horse. The shogunate cavalry was suddenly uncommanded, and fled back to the shogunate with the body of the cavalry general.

The 1,000 ironclad warriors of Satsuma fought their way into the shogunate's Ashigaru and scattered the enemy with ease. But the shogunate soon organized several times the army to meet them, and many of them were hacked to death by their opponents with all their strength.

After a big battle, both sides seem to be back to square one. Tokugawa Iemitsu, who had planned to defeat Satsuma in one fell swoop, hurriedly collected his troops and returned to the camp, and the tired Satsuma warriors also returned to the camp to rest.

Tokugawa Iemitsu looked at the general who was kneeling on the ground and was thinking about whether to let the two seppuku apologize, when there was a commotion in the camp.

A cavalryman ran with a letter in his hand and shouted: "Get out of the way!" Get out of the way! Edo Castle is defeated, and pirates attack Edo Castle! ”

Tokugawa Iemitsu, who was in the big tent, heard the news, and a mouthful of old blood almost spurted out. He shouted angrily, "Shut up that idiot!" ”

Immediately a samurai ran out, and it didn't take long to bring in a samurai. This man's clothes were torn in many places, and his body was covered with dust, and it looked like he had come from day and night.

The Tokugawa family couldn't patronize anything else, and walked quickly in front of the samurai. Reaching out and grabbing the samurai's collar, he roared, "How is Edo Castle?" ”

"General! Edo Bay was defeated, and the corpses of our people were covered with the bay. Edo Castle has been breached by pirates, and pirates are plundering Edo Castle, so return to rescue Edo Castle! ......" the samurai fainted when he finished speaking.

Tokugawa Iemitsu slowly let go of his hand and stood in place dizzy. With a shake of his body, he almost fell to the ground, and after being helped by the people around him to sit down, he stared blankly at the roof of the shed.

It took a long time to say a sentence: "Kill!" They should all be killed! Mori Leng in the words made everyone tremble, and they didn't dare to say anything and quietly wait for Tokugawa Iemitsu's order.

……

Shimazu Nakayoko was ecstatic when he learned that Edo Castle had been breached by the Nagako army, and he did not expect happiness to come so suddenly. The lair was attacked by Tokugawa Iemitsu and there was no way to fight Satsuma, if Tokugawa Iemitsu didn't care about Edo Castle, the surrounding daimyo would cheer on the sidelines.

At that time, the defeated Satsuma and the shogunate will be divided among the other daimyos. Satsuma is naturally not afraid of having the Changxing Army as its backing, but the shogunate is different.

Their enemies are not limited to Samosa, any powerful and ambitious daimyo is their enemy. Therefore, withdrawing troops is Tokugawa Iemitsu's only option, but to withdraw troops easily, it is necessary to ask Satsuma if he agrees.

Satsuma suddenly changed from being passively beaten to being an active party, and the next morning he took the initiative to fight outside the shogunate's camp.

The Tokugawa family smashed the teacup to pieces, and he wanted to kill the samurai who reported the news with his own hands. If the news is blocked, he can still withdraw his troops unconsciously.

It's good now, the old fox in Shimazu Nakayoko won't let go of the opportunity to rip off the bamboo, it seems that this Jiuzhou Island can't be saved, and he will be surnamed Shimazu in a short time.

Tokugawa Iemitsu did not continue the war with Shimazuchuyoko, and negotiations began. At the negotiation table, the Shimazu family was not in a hurry at all, and talked to the shogunate one by one.

In the end, Tokugawa Iemitsu couldn't stand it anymore and threw out the bottom line directly. The Shimazu family's rule over Kyushu Island was recognized, but Nagasaki must be under the direct command of the shogunate.

It is impossible for the shogunate to give up the money bag in Nagasaki, and it is better to fight with Shimazu Nakayoko to break the net than to catch the money bag in his hands.

To Tokugawa Iemitsu's surprise, Shimazu Nakayoko actually agreed to this request, with one condition attached.

That was to ask the emperor to give the northern island of Ezo to Satsuma as a territory, a condition that Tokugawa Iemitsu was a little incomprehensible.

Although he was also optimistic about the land of Ezo Island, the resistance of the Anui people on the island was too fierce. The forcible occupation of troops is somewhat more than worth the loss, so this large island has been controlled by a small family that cannot be named.

I thought that the Shimazu family would open his mouth, but I didn't expect that it would ask for an island that no one wanted to want. Tokugawa Iemitsu agreed very simply, and after signing this treaty that he would regret for the rest of his life, he immediately set off for Edo Castle.

Shimazu Nakayoko watched the shogunate army leave unwillingly, if it weren't for the fact that the Satsuma Domain had no strength to fight again, how could he easily let Tokugawa Iemitsu leave.

Returning to his heart, he didn't care about the fatigue of the soldiers after the battle, and urged Ashigaru to hurry like crazy.

When he saw Edo Castle, which was still smoking, his anger rushed to the top of his head. Edo Castle was the hope of the Tokugawa family, who invested a lot of money in it to make it the center of the Wa Kingdom.

Edo Castle, which had just been expanded, had invested the efforts of two generations of the Tokugawa family, but it was ransacked by pirates before it could be used, so how not to make the Tokugawa family angry.

When he learned that the pirates had not left and were still loading looted goods from Edo Castle in Edo Bay, Tokugawa Iemitsu felt that his face was swollen.
