Chapter 421: Onlookers' Battle, Charge After Washing the Floor!
When you go, you go against the wind, and when you return, you are familiar with the road. Soon Nagasaki was in sight, and it was early in the morning and just after dawn.
"Lower the mainsail and raise the auxiliary sail. Get ready to go ashore and go straight from another place to the Daimyo Castle Mansion along the road! ”
With the order of Zhu Zilong's clone, the sailors who had been prepared for a long time untied the ropes on the mainmast, and the huge mainsail descended from the mast with a clatter.
"Beat the flag, let the back follow the flagship, and don't fall behind!"
As one command after another was conveyed, each helmsman was conscientiously executing. With the last rays of the beautiful sunset, Nagasaki's coastline is becoming more and more visible.
At this point, a smile appeared on the face of Zhu Zilong's clone.
And even when the entire fleet was getting closer and closer to Nagasaki, the Nagasaki Daimyo's Mansion, which had no concept of a city wall at all, still didn't notice it at all. Of course, if you find it, it is estimated that you can't stop people.
This is because there are no Chinese-style walls in Japan's major prefectures from ancient times to the present.
There are three types of Japanese castles: Heijo, Yamashiro, and Hirayama Castle.
First of all, the mountain castle was developed in the Yayoi period and the early Kofun period, and the rudimentary form of the mountain castle, that is, the highland settlement, appeared, and then with the evolution from a village to a country, and the influence of Joseon, which was also mountainous, gradually developed from the Asuka-Hakuho-Nara period to the early Heian period.
In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the number of castles built using temples also increased, and it was only later that the Sengoku mountain castle that we are familiar with came to the stage of history with the appearance of the Sengoku daimyo in the Muromachi period.
Then there was Heijo Castle, and in the Yayoi period, a castle called Yayoi Kanho Settlement appeared, but it soon disappeared. Because of the influence of the mainland, it was replaced by the wealthy clan hall of the Kofun period and the castle gate of the Heian period, which was the prototype of the future Heiankyo.
In the Kamakura period, the square pavilion was developed to be smaller but more defensive, laying the foundation for the future Heijo in the Warring States period.
Looking at Japan during the Song Dynasty, with the exception of Kyoto Heiankyo, which was the emperor's office of the Emperor of Japan, there were also buildings similar to Chinese-style castle walls. It's called "city wall", but many of them are not made of stones, but layer by layer of earth to build up and reinforce, much like a rammed earth city wall, called "plate building"!
However, this height, and the absence of other city risks, is basically nothing.
Others resemble the Great Wall. The purpose of enclosing the city and protecting it is to build an earthen platform on the mountain, and the representative building is the Kamakura period of Kamakura. And there will be some branch cities on these earthen platforms that play the role of beacon towers, such as Sumiyoshi Castle and Sugimoto Castle in Kamakura Waiguo. Cities like this are also called castle cities.
Generally speaking, cities in Japan are separated from each other. The castle is the castle, and the city is the castle town and the village. Therefore, ancient Japan was more like a European manor system. Therefore, the city has no walls. But the castle is different, because it functions as a fortification, so it has always had walls.
However, the height and solidity of the castle walls are only of a medium level.
The daimyo of Nagasaki was close to the sea, and because artillery was not widely available in this era, the Japanese did not have the impression of being prepared for long-range attacks.
Until this moment!
A samurai who had just risen in the castle suddenly saw the situation on the sea clearly, and his eyes suddenly became round. Some of the stutterers pointed to the distance and said to their companions, "Look, isn't it...... Isn't it ......"
It's just, the next minute, not waiting for the answer of the companion. A gust of sea breeze blew through the dark clouds that blocked the moon, and suddenly the situation on the sea became clearer.
After seeing the situation on the sea, the smiles on the faces of the samurai suddenly lingered. I saw that on the boundless sea, rows of huge ships appeared.
And on the tall masts of those big ships, a clear five-star red flag of the golden dragon, sun and moon is fluttering in the wind. Faintly, you can also see a big (Song) character on the hull!
A samurai muttered: "It seems to be the warship fleet of the Great Song Dynasty, it's not good, hurry up and blow the trumpet." It doesn't seem to be here to trade, so you have to be prepared to meet the enemy! Wake everyone up! ”
However, without waiting for him to react.
I saw that faintly on the sea, there was the sound of cannonballs.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!
A loud bang that had never been heard before, coupled with a bombardment of iron balls, slammed into the walls of the castle. Often, a solid cannonball is knocked down, and the wall is pierced or half-damaged even if it is smashed and jumped. The flying rubble fired like bullets, hitting nearby samurai and peasant soldiers.
"Boom"! "Boom"! "Boom"! "Boom"! "Boom"! "Boom"!
The artillery on the warship was all made of fine copper, and Zhu Zilong's doppelganger asked to play a wave of momentum, regardless of losses. Desperately devouring leaf-swallowing flames and cannonballs!
Nema, this is simply a flotilla shell, washing the floor!
Although the Daimyofu can be claimed to be one of the strongest cities in Kyushu, it is not as dexterous as it is to fight hard. Just like a cannonball, it just came crashing down the castle tower, and you can imagine how demoralizing it was, and the merchants of Tomachi watched from the streets, and some of them couldn't help but sob.
Of course, more of them are the local people in Japan, who still think that the heavens are angry and thundering. And the Daimyo's mansion was bombarded by Thor, and he didn't expect it to be artillery at all, after all, this thing is a new product on the side of the Great Song Dynasty.
The last time I came over, Zhu Zilong's clone was not exposed. Even if someone saw it, they didn't know what it was, but now they know what it was like to spread it around too late, and when they were beaten, it was like that. It's too late for anything!
Fortunately, the number of these finished guns is not enough to exclude shooting, and of course there are not many qualified gunners.
After a few rounds of salvo, only the army can play. However, the momentum has been beaten, and this is enough.
The other Japanese merchants outside the castle didn't know what was going on until this point. Of course, there will be no one to attack their territory, and the war of the Fuso Warring States basically does not involve the people of the town, and it will even form a situation where you fight you, and I will still open the door to do my business. It's even a strange flower on the battlefield!
Although Zhu Zilong's doppelganger will not fight according to the habits of the Japanese, modern people have crossed over and are unwilling to kill the people indiscriminately. More or less, it is also in line with the current habits on the battlefield in Fuso.
The first wave of pirates who disembarked from the ship, after receiving the order to take down the daimyo's mansion and grab everything for themselves. In line with the wealth lost last time, this one will have the name of the regular army, and it can be regained. Naturally, I won't miss this great opportunity!
And the situation in the Daimyo's Mansion on the other side, how many people, and how many people can be frightened by the cannonballs, and there is still a little bit of fighting spirit, and they know what the situation is when they think about things with their butts.
This is simply giving money for nothing, even if you are cannon fodder charging into battle, there is no danger, if you don't rush at this time, wait for when.
Soon, the two sides shouted and screamed, and there were ordinary people watching the excitement next to them.
