Chapter 428: Landing in the Ryukyus

When they arrived in Ju County, they realized that they were short-sighted, and they were also shocked by the wealth of Ju County. It's a pity that after just playing for two days, I haven't had a good taste of the coastal scenery, so Cheng Zhijie's messenger found the two of them, saying that the three parties had already negotiated, and asked Shaobao and the princess to hurry back to Jinan.

Luo Shaobao and Princess Yong'an, who had completely forgotten their roles, quickly recovered the style of a decisive general, and without saying a word, they flew on their horses and took their servants all the way back to Jinan.

At this time, Cheng Zhijie had already returned, and he held a banquet in the city to entertain Luo Cheng and a few people. Everyone sat down separately, and they couldn't see that they were once opponents fighting for life and death, and they drank happily and the atmosphere was harmonious.

"Luo Cheng, how do you feel about my brother and sister coming to our Shandong this time?"

Luo Cheng said with a smile: "I just heard about the Great Demon Kingdom before, but today it is a pure land on earth!" For the fifth brother's ability to govern the place, the younger brother admires the five-body land! ”

Dou Xianniang's face flushed, and then followed Luo Cheng and said, "Fifth brother, I won't say much about the kind words." This time I attacked Yangxin and brought great losses to the Great Demon Kingdom; I make amends to you! At the same time, I promise you that I will not use a single knife or a shot against the Great Demon Kingdom in the future! ”

Cheng Zhijie slapped the table and said, "Okay!" Brother and sister women don't let the eyebrows! In the past, we each had our own masters, and all grievances were written off. When I have time in the future, I welcome you to come and play with me more often. ”

"Okay, we really haven't had enough of it once, have we? The Pure Land of the world is in Shandong, and we will come often in the future; Fifth brother, don't dislike it. ”

"Good! Just for the sake of my younger brothers and sisters, the sentence "The Pure Land of the world is in Shandong", we should be floating; Brothers, let's drink this cup, dry! ”

"!" The crowd shouted in unison and raised their glasses.

The next day, Luo Cheng, Dou Xianniang, Zhang Gongjin and others said goodbye to everyone and urged Ma to return to Yangxin; At this time, Kong Dezhao and Zhao Cihao had been waiting impatiently, and when they saw him coming back, they could be regarded as a long sigh of relief, and hurried back with the men and horses.

After Zhang Ding sent Li Jing, Yang Lin and Ding Yanping to land, under the pretext that the Ryukyu State did not respect the education and attacked his own army, he launched a 20,000-strong naval army in Jiujin and attacked the Ryukyus.

This Ryukyu kingdom in the Sui Dynasty refers to Taiwan and its surrounding islands; In the third year of the Great Cause, Yang Guang once sent Wu Benlang to send Chen Ling and the court to invite the doctor Zhang Zhen Zhou to send more than 10,000 Dongyang soldiers, from Yi'an to the sea, to defeat the country, and the Ryukyu Kingdom bowed down to the court.

However, the form of the Great Sui Dynasty took a sharp turn for the worse, and the king of the Ryukyu Kingdom, Huan Si Thirsty, moved his mind again. On the one hand, he ordered his eldest son Huan Si Aoyu to send an envoy to the Wa Kingdom to unite with them and jointly resist the Great Demon Kingdom, and on the other hand, he ordered his second son Huan Si Island to reorganize his armament for war.

Aoyu arrived in the Wa Kingdom at the beginning and it was smooth sailing, but then the situation took a turn for the worse, and the Great Demon Kingdom suddenly sent troops to capture the Wa Kingdom; He was also driven back with his wounds. returned to the Ryukyus, and the fish practiced martial arts and soldiers even harder, wanting to avenge an arrow.

A month ago, Ao Yu received an invitation from his friend Tieguan Daoren in the Central Plains, asking him to help fight for the world, and promised to rate the territory with him after the matter was completed. As soon as Aoyu heard the great joy and was eager for revenge, he led the army to the Central Plains, and this time there was no news.

Huan Si was looking forward to the news of his son's return every day, but in the end, his son did not come back, but the warship of the Great Demon Kingdom drove over in the sky.

The warships of the Ryukyus had already been taken away, and they had no power to intercept them, and everyone found out that the enemy ships were at first thought to be merchant ships, and they all took their belongings and waited to trade with them.

Zhang Ding was also taken aback when he saw a group of people looking forward to it on the shore; Zhang Ding ordered Lu Xingxing and Lu Mingyue brothers to be the vanguard and landed on the shore first.

When these people saw each other holding knives and guns one by one, they exclaimed, threw down their things and ran.

Zhang Ding sighed helplessly, and the army landed and successfully occupied Jilong Bay. Not many people live here, most of them are fishermen. Zhang Ding ordered the army to trade with the locals, and everyone quickly became familiar with it. Zhang Ding and others also inquired about the basic situation of the Ryukyus.

The Ryukyu Kingdom consists of more than 20 islands, the largest of which are hills, with most of the plains concentrated in the west. It is also home to most of the island's people. King Huansi lived in the Borotan Cave in the south of the island.

At present, there are less than 20,000 horses in the Ryukyus, and most of them are in the hands of the island cone. As soon as Zhang Ding and the others landed, the information quickly reached Huan Si's thirsty ears. Without saying a word, the king ordered his son, Island Cone, to lead his troops to exterminate him.

The island cone did not go to investigate, and took the army to find Zhang Ding for a decisive battle. Zhang Ding laughed when he heard this, and he asked Lu Xingxing and Lu Mingyue brothers to lead an army of 10,000 to ambush in Lion Ball Ridge; He himself led the rest of his troops to the enemy's rear.

The island cone came to the Lion Ball Ridge without even hesitating, and got into the ambush circle of the Lu brothers.

Seeing that the enemy was so cooperative, Lu Xingxing said hello to Lu Mingyue, and Hula rushed down at once.

The island cone pursed his lips and said: "These Han people are all cowardly like mice, they only dare to release cold arrows from afar, and they dare not fight in person!" Come on! Charge! Let them know how good we are! Although his soldiers were in rags, they were all covered with patterns, and they rushed out with a roar.

The soldiers of the Great Demon Kingdom were taken aback by their costumes, and Lu Xingxing smiled: "Pretend to be a ghost, shoot them to death!" As soon as he finished speaking, a rain of arrows rained down on the sky, and the natives were shot down one by one, and their charge was immediately disrupted.

Lu Xingxing looked at it and shouted: "Kill!" The leader rushed up, and with a flick of the steel harpoon in his hand, he stabbed several people to death one after another. As soon as the island cone saw the iron cone in his hand, he rushed up, and smashed it on the spot with a whin.

Lu Xingxing raised a steel fork to greet him, "When!" Lu Xingxing was shocked and retreated, and the island cone also retreated a few steps in a row. The island cone shouted: "Good man, pick me up again." As he spoke, he threw himself forward and again.

Lu Xingxing knew that he was powerful, took a step back, slightly sideways and let him pass the iron spine, and then the steel fork in his hand was distracted and stabbed. The island cone hurriedly picked up the big iron cone to meet each other, and the two clanged in one place.

Island Cone and Lu Xing fought for more than a dozen rounds, and suddenly found that the enemy troops had crossed by their side; He peeked around; I couldn't help but gasp in fright.

His subordinates were already full of corpses, and the soldiers of the Great Demon Kingdom were chasing after them like ducks, and they were overwhelmed.

The island cone knows that it is not good, and he does not say a word; He jerked out a few short spears from his waist. "Woo! Woo! Woo! "Went straight to Lu Xingxing and threw it over.

Lu Xingxing was defenseless, and when he saw that it was not good, he hurriedly danced the steel fork to block; As a result, he blocked a few, and was finally shot in the thigh by a spear, and he rolled over and fell down with a bang. When Lu Mingyue saw it, she quickly gave up the fight and came to save her brother.

Seeing that the enemy had been shot, the island cone turned around and ran away without saying a word. Lu Mingyue saw that the wound where her brother was stabbed in the thigh was already blackened, and knew that the enemy's short spear was smeared with poison. His eyes cracked with anger, and he hurriedly pierced the base of Lu Xingxing's thigh with a strip of cloth, and then called the military medical officer to hurry up and treat him.

As soon as Zhang Ding saw that he had not attacked from behind, the enemy was like a tide; , hurriedly ordered the troops to attack, and the head was a volley.

The corpses of the Ryukyu army were killed all over the field, and they fled desperately, these people were all old horses who knew the way, and were good at fighting in the mountains, and they suddenly got into the mountains and forests, and soon escaped.

Zhang Ding was about to send someone to chase after him, and suddenly heard his subordinates come to report that Lu Xingxing had been hit by the enemy's secret weapon and was poisoned; It's already at stake. Zhang Ding was taken aback and hurriedly took someone to check.

I saw that Lu Xingxing's injured leg had turned black and purple, and the smelly black blood kept flowing outside. Zhang Ding hurriedly asked the medical officer, what is going on?

"Dashuai, the poison of these people is very peculiar, and our own detoxification pill can only be suppressed, not completely expelled. There is nothing we can do now; Let's send it to Jinan for treatment! ”

Zhang Dingyi frowned and said, "Okay, without further ado, let's hurry up." Zhang Yuan, you take someone to send General Lu Xingxing back to Shandong and explain it to the Demon King Chitose; I need to mobilize more doctors who are experienced in detoxification. In addition, the Ryukyus are hilly and not suitable for large corps operations, so I would like to mobilize special forces to help. ”

Zhang Yuan agreed, and then ordered someone to carry the unconscious Lu Xingxing, and got on the warship to return to Shandong.

Zhang Ding said to Lu Mingyue: "Mingyue, we can't wait until the reinforcements arrive." My plan was to sweep the western front from north to south in five routes; Occupy all plains. Waiting for the special forces to work together, we are annihilating them in one fell swoop. ”

Lu Mingyue's eyes were full of fire now, and she heard Zhang Ding say this: "Dashuai, if you have any requirements, just give orders." I don't obey! ”

Zhang Ding nodded and said, "Okay!" The enemy has now been crippled by us; There are not many troops everywhere. I plan to divide my forces into five directions and quickly sweep away the enemy on the western plain and occupy this place. Although the natives here are not very civilized, they will all be our compatriots in the future.

Our Great Demon Kingdom does not have the habit of killing ordinary people; I hope everyone can stick to this bottom line, if anyone dares to offend you, beware of my ruthless military law! ”

"Yes!" The generals' hearts sank, and they hurriedly intervened to receive the order. Zhang Ding nodded, took out five arrows, and then distributed them to Lu Mingyue and other four generals, and the army dispersed and rushed into Ryukyu.

Ryukyu is an island country, and the land is barren and not abundant; In addition, natural disasters such as typhoons and earthquakes occur frequently, and once there is a famine, the islands have nothing to eat, and people have to grind cycad seeds to satisfy their hunger, and countless people die of starvation.

Therefore, when the Great Demon Kingdom came with a large amount of supplies, the soldiers defending the city often did not resist, and some people rushed to open the city gate and let the Great Demon Kingdom army in.
