Chapter 1074: General Squire
The people of Tachibanayama Castle had noticed the movement in the village below the mountain last night, but because it was already late at night, they didn't take any action.
It was not until the morning that people were sent to investigate, and Japanese merchants who had come to trade at Hakata Port poured into Tachibanayama Castle early in the morning.
The village below the mountain has turned out to be in ruins, and everyone has been slaughtered cleanly, so the people of Tachibana Mountain Castle naturally can't sit idly by! And through the influx of merchants, it was learned that all this was done by the merchants of the Ming Dynasty.
The person in charge of Tachibana Mountain Castle immediately became angry, and it didn't take long for Tachibana Mountain Castle to descend more than two hundred people!
Although more soldiers were on the ship, there were also hundreds of soldiers on the dock at this time, all of whom came down from the ship with Zhang Zhijie, all of whom were elite soldiers.
Seeing that there were hundreds of elite soldiers on the dock, the arrogance of the Japanese samurai who was raging was not very arrogant. The leading samurai had a good eye, and he came directly to Zhang Zhijie and chattered.
Zhang Zhijie looked at the spittling warrior condescendingly and was a little impatient, and the translator next to him hurriedly translated: "My lord, he said that he was the general of Tachibana Mountain City, and he was asking why the merchants of the Ming Dynasty would slaughter a village!" ”
The Waiter? Zhang Zhijie didn't understand what kind of official position the general was, but seeing that he had one or two hundred people, it should be about the same as a hundred households!
Zhang Zhijie felt a little painful, he was a dignified admiral, and tens of thousands of armor divisions under his command, and when he arrived, there was a person who looked like a hundred households in Japan questioning himself!
So Zhang Zhijie directly said impatiently: "Tell him, let him hurry up and hand over that Murakami Kogoro!" Otherwise, this governor will lead his troops to level Tachibana Mountain City! ”
The translator immediately translated Zhang Zhijie's words, but the general looked angry after hearing it, looked up at Zhang Zhijie and said "Baga"!
Zhang Zhijie didn't understand the latter words, but Zhang Zhijie heard the sentence "Baga" very clearly. Not only Zhang Zhijie was very clear, but the people around him heard it clearly.
These soldiers who followed Zhang Zhijie also heard these Japanese people shouting "Baga" last night, so they specially asked the interpreter what "Baga" meant! It turned out to be a curse!
Now when they saw that this general of the Rausch army actually raised his head and shouted "Baga" to the admiral, they were all furious. What a prominent identity Lord Admiral, this man dares to scold Lord Admiral in person, it is really unbearable!
The guards around Zhang Zhijie couldn't help it in a fit of rage, and pounced directly, the general didn't show weakness, although he was relatively short, he jumped up with a fist.
This general is not weak, and he can barely support himself in the face of the guards. You must know that Zhang Zhijie's personal guards are all carefully selected from the brocade guards.
The general barely held on, but the rest of the samurai were miserable and were brought down in a moment, and the general was still struggling to hold on under the guards.
However, the general was already shocked, he was definitely a master in Tachibana Mountain City, and he actually fell in the hands of this Ming man, and he was about to lose.
Bai Yulan stood beside Zhang Zhijie and couldn't see it, her figure flashed, she took a few steps forward and kicked over. The general only felt a flower in the corner of his eye, and then a strong force came from his chest, and then there was a feeling of soaring clouds, and finally there was a sharp pain in his chest, and his throat was sweet, and he fell to the ground with blood and fainted.
I have to say that Magnolia's casual kick is very amazing, looking at the general who flew out more than ten zhang away and fainted to the ground, Zhang Zhijie smiled: "Escort him over!" ”
Immediately, two guards went to put the general over, snapping two mouths, the general woke up slowly, and was still a little dazed for a while, wasn't he just now?
But soon he saw the situation clearly, tilted his head and opened his mouth and shouted, "Baga! And then followed by "popping" two mouths!
"Baga", "Papa", "Baga", "Papa", so alternately, but soon became like this: "Eight", "Papa", "Bapa", "Papa".
The general was about to turn into a pig's head, and finally stopped talking. Zhang Zhijie actually wanted to say to him, don't call him a labor-management father, labor-management can't give birth to a kind like you.
In any case, Zhang Zhijie was still very satisfied with the actions of the guards. Now that the general has finally been honest, Zhang Zhijie said in a deep voice: "Tell the governor, where is Murakami Kogoro?" Is it in Tachibanayama Castle? ”
The general stiffened his neck and said, "Murakami-kun is indeed in the city, but he is no longer a ronin, he has sworn allegiance to the Tachibana family, he is already a samurai of the Tachibana family, and he is a noble Ashigaru general!" ”
"It's not a big deal for a noble samurai to kill a lowly commoner. Since you Ming people have come here, you should abide by the rules here! ”
Zhang Zhijie shook his head and said: "What kind of samurai is not a samurai, this governor doesn't care, this governor has only one principle, killing people pays for life, whoever kills the people of the Ming Dynasty must die!" If you hand over the ronin, Ben will kill him, and it will be over!" If you don't pay it, then the governor will lead the troops to break through Tachibana Mountain Castle! ”
"Ben Du let you go back to report the news, if you hand over the ronin, you can redeem these warriors, if you dare not pay, Ben Du will kill them to sacrifice the flag, and then set foot on Tachibana Mountain Castle!"
After saying that, Zhang Zhijie waved his hand, and the guards let go of the Japanese general, who got up and looked up at Zhang Zhijie, then picked up the katana that fell on the ground and limped up the mountain.
Until noon, there was still no news, and it seemed that these widows were not ready to give in. Zhang Zhijie immediately began to transfer troops, leaving 2,000 men to stay on the warship, and 3,000 officers and men of the Naval Division lined up on the dock.
With Zhang Zhijie's order, the 3,000-strong army immediately advanced towards Tachibana Mountain, but the army marched extremely slowly, because there were still four guns removed from the ship.
The mountain is steep, and it will not be easy to carry these guns up the mountain, but it is better than having a large army attack the city directly. Zhang Zhijie also observed the Tachibana Mountain Castle on the mountain, which was built very firmly and the city walls were also very high, which can be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack.
That's why Zhang Zhijie decided to transport the artillery up and directly blasted their city gate open. Anyway, Zhang Zhijie is not in a hurry, using artillery can reduce the casualties of the soldiers, why not?
Let these Japanese land buns see the power of artillery, otherwise they really think that they can sleep peacefully with a small mountain town.
