Yang Wenli made a sound, Yang Renri first led the warship forward, and when he arrived at a place one thousand meters away from the coast, he no longer moved forward, but instead cruised along the coast, this was to prevent a surprise attack by the Japanese battery, and Yang Renri's artillery was pressing.

Afterwards, Yang Rentian led the officers and soldiers of the General Banner to continue to advance and landed at the Fushan Port Wharf, accompanied by the Japanese interpreter.

"Order, each small banner to control the wharf, city gates, forts and other important places, confiscate Japanese weapons, armor, bows and other equipment, block all the main roads in the castle town, and prohibit passage."

"Yes"

The black-armored officers and soldiers are well trained, and the superiors have absolute authority over the subordinates, so Yang Rentian gave an order, and ordered the slaves to come out, and a few small flags were quickly executed according to the order.

When the warship approached the dock, the soldiers turned a blind eye to the high-ranking Japanese officials kneeling on the pier, and spontaneously dispersed to both sides like a torrent hitting an embankment, confiscating the weapons and equipment of the Japanese guards, and taking these Japanese flag warriors into custody.

The slightest disrespect is an old fist, the black-armored soldiers are tall and strong, and the Japanese warriors are generally shorter, and they can fight obediently in a few hours.

There was no resistance to the takeover of the forts, gates, and towers, because they knew that the feudal lords had surrendered and that there was no good fruit to eat from resistance.

There are fifteen gates and twenty-five iron cannons in the entire Fushan Castle, which are arranged on the castle tower and various forts, which are the biggest threat to the Black Armor Army.

After controlling the artillery, it was impossible to change the sky, so the warships stepped up to the shore, and a group of soldiers in steel armor quickly disembarked and seized the main roads in the castle town, began to restrict travel, and drove away the onlookers.

The docks at Fukuyama Castle were not large, so only a few warships docked at a time, and a group of heavily armed and murderous soldiers were laid down, and they immediately left the dock to give way to berths, and then another group of warships docked, and the cycle was repeated, as if there were endless soldiers.

made a group of big names, family elders, old and middle nobles kneeling on the dock, trembling and frightened, how many iron armor elites are there? At the same time, they are also secretly glad that this kind of military power can wipe out a country at will, and it is really the Ming Dynasty, with strong national strength, and it is not ordinary when they make a move.

When Yang Rentian stepped on the dock under the escort of twenty slave soldiers, Matsumae Gongguang saw that he was majestic and extraordinary, looking forward to it, and he was accompanied by a translator, he thought that Yang Rentian was the great commander of the Ming people, so he bowed loudly and said: "The small state of the lower country, the ...... of the Matsumae domain"

Seeing that the head of the family had misunderstood, the interpreter hurriedly interrupted and introduced: "Your Excellency the head of the family, this is the general of Your Excellency the Great Commander, Your Excellency Yang Rentian, Your Excellency the Great Commander has not yet landed. ”

"Flag Officer? Commanding so many ironclad elites, is it just a small chief flag officer? Matsumae was confused, and his head was full of questions.

The Japanese know the Ming Dynasty very well, especially a daimyo like Matsumae Gonghiro, who knows that the chief flag officer in the Ming Dynasty is just a small seven-rank military attache under the Gantosho, who has just entered the stream, and leads only fifty guards and soldiers, and is not a regular army, which is equivalent to the Japanese ashigaru. Such a small official, what kind of general is he called?

Yang Wenli knew that Matsumae Gongguang in front of him was puzzled, so he smiled and said: "We are the Black Armor Army, not the army of the Ming Dynasty, although our establishment is borrowed from the Daimyo's Wei system, but it is also very different, in short, I am the general under the Great Commander." ”

The Japanese interpreter translated his words to Matsumae Kohiro untouched, and after the translation was finished, Matsumae Kohiro was stunned on the spot.

Black Armor? Not the Ming Army? These two keywords are very informative, indicating that this is an independent force, not acting on orders, and perhaps the so-called great commander is equivalent to the lord of the country.

But they are obviously Ming people, but they claim to be non-Ming soldiers, so maybe this black armor army is the rebel army of the Ming Kingdom, and they can't stay in the Ming Kingdom anymore, so they go overseas.

Smart people can often judge the reality of the other party from simple words, and Matsumae Gonghiro's judgment is also inseparable.

However, even if this is just a group of rebels in the Ming Kingdom, it is far from being something that the Matsumae Domain can deal with, Matsumae Gonghiro and the nobles who are kneeling on the ground, seeing that the soldiers on the other side seem to be endless, constantly spitting out, and all of them are strong and strong, wearing steel armor all over the body, such a strong strength, not to mention the Daimyo of Matsumae Domain, which does not have a high number of stones, even those wealthy families in the Kanto region, I am afraid they can't resist it!

Soon after, Yang Renyue also went ashore, and by this time, the Black Armor Army had taken full control of Fukuyama Castle and the commercial district of Joshita Town, and the Matsumae Domain had been completely lost.

Then the civilians and slaves of the ships, and a large number of horses, began to land, and they drifted on the sea for twenty days, and as soon as they landed on solid ground, they were overjoyed, and they had no more fear of dying at sea.

Some people even knelt on the ground and whimpered, which is a person who has lost a loved one at sea, and is paying tribute to his family!

Even the horses, which had been sick with seedlings, neighed loudly and snorted as if to express their joy as soon as they landed on solid ground.

Seeing these seemingly endless high-level war horses, at least 20,000 horses, these Japanese nobles were completely convinced, this black armor army is indeed terrifying, and surrender is a wise move.

The most famous period in Japanese history is the Warring States period. This period is like the Three Kingdoms period in China, which can be described as "heroic". Some well-known figures such as Oda Nobunaga, Tokugawa Ieyasu, Kamishi Kennobu, and Takeda Shingen all emerged one after another during this period.

Under Takeda Shingen, there is a mysterious cavalry unit, because of its bravery and good fighting, all Japanese daimyo are feared - this is the Takeda Red Reserve. The so-called "akabi" refers to the red armor. Because Japan is heavily influenced by China, China is precious to red, and Japan is naturally precious to red. The core of the Red Reserve is the cavalry, which is the most noble in Japan. (Note that the Takeda Akabi was originally a pure cavalry unit, but later evolved into a mixed infantry and cavalry unit, but its core combat power was still cavalry)

Takeda Shingen only pays attention to one word in the use of soldiers - "fast". As the so-called "soldiers are fast", in the words of his favorite "The Art of War", it is "as fast as the wind". As soon as the Takeda family's Akabi team appeared, they showed their unusually strong strength. In 1555, a conflict broke out between Uesugi Kenshin and Takeda Shingen of Echigo Province, known as the Second Battle of Kawanakajima. In this battle, the Red Reserve defeated the Uesugi family's vanguard of up to 8,000 men with only a weak force of 800 men.

After several battles, the cavalry of the Red Reserve made great contributions to the Takeda family. In the Battle of the Tripartite Plain, a Red Reserve vanguard cavalry of Takeda Shingen beat the famous Tokugawa Ieyasu to the head. No matter how you look at it, the cavalry of the Red Reserve was the strongest cavalry unit in ancient Japan.

So what kind of war horses did such a bullish cavalry unit ride? If you don't say you don't know, it's embarrassing when you say it! The quality of horses in Japan has always been poor. Most native Japanese horses are ponies. It is called a pony because of its very short size. How short is it, exactly? Some adult ponies can only grow up to 85 cm tall, which is still the height of the head. It can only reach the knee height of a person who is 1.6m tall, which is almost the size of a husky!

The most "tall" native horse in ancient Japan was called the "Kiso horse". The royal war horse of the Takeda Red Reserve is the Kiso horse. But when it comes to the size of the Kiso horse, it is also surprising to modern people. Most adult Kiso horses are only 110 cm tall, almost the height of the waist of the average modern adult. In fact, in the strict sense, this kind of war horse cannot be used as a war horse at all!

The so-called war horse is called a war horse, and it must first meet a certain height. The tallest horse in the world is the British Shire Horse, which is more than 2m tall at the shoulder, which is simply a giant beast. The Mongolian horses used by Genghis Khan to sweep across Eurasia were much shorter, with a shoulder height of only 135 cm. However, although the Mongolian horse is not large, it is very tenacious and adaptable to various harsh climates, so it is very suitable for war horses. But in any case, the size of the Mongolian horse is acceptable.

On the other hand, the Japanese Kiso horse is really too short, only 110cm in total, basically a large husky, and it is almost the same for children to ride, how can it fight? If you really have to fight, let alone a long-distance attack, the impact power is not up to standard. It is no wonder that during the Meiji Restoration, Japan introduced a large number of European horses to improve horse breeds, and bred the famous Kanto horses.

But it is this kind of short horse that has made the most powerful Red Reserve cavalry in ancient Japan, which is really incredible! If I had to explain, there was only one reason – and that was that the Japanese were shorter. The height of the Japanese in ancient times was generally only 1.4 to 1.5 meters, at least 20 cm shorter than the Chinese. According to the same ratio, the Mongolian horse ridden by the Chinese is 135cm, minus 20cm is 115cm, which is exactly the same height as the Kiso horse. In other words, the short stature of the ancient Japanese was more suitable for riding a shorter horse. Therefore, the Red Reserve cavalry composed of short Kiso horses can make the Japanese fearful.

The tall black-armored army, coupled with a huge Mongolian horse, sprints up, which is equivalent to an ancient version of a heavy tank, how can you call the short Japanese to resist? It is understandable that these nobles were convinced when they saw so many war horses disembarking......
