Chapter 180: Actor Torii Tosa

Yagyu gave him an encouraging look, which reassured Matsudaira a little. β†— Top Novel,

"Ladies and gentlemen, this battle is a matter of safety for our kingdom. Both His Majesty the Emperor and the Shogun are very concerned about this battle, so I hope that all of you will work together to fight against the great enemy. ”

"Please rest assured, Matsudaira-sama, we will do our best in this battle. As long as it is Matsudaira-sama's order, we Matsuura clan will not hesitate to go to the soup and fire. ”

Matsuura Jinshin first said generously.

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but feel a burst of disdain.

To say that Hirado Island and Tsushima Island are his territories, Matsuura Zhenxin is definitely suspected of fake public welfare and selfishness, and it is estimated that he wants everyone to desperately drive away the Ming army to help him recover the territory.

Although Xiao Jiujiu, who knew Matsuura Zhenxin, Matsudaira Nobutsuna still glanced at Matsuura Zhenxin with appreciation.

After all, he is still a little young, and he can't suppress these big names or generals in front of him.

Although they were polite, he could still see the contempt for him in their eyes, which made him hold back his anger.

Only Matsuura Zhenxin always obeyed him, and no matter what he did, he was the first to express his support, which made Matsudaira Nobutsuna have a much better impression of him.

Seeing that Matsuura Zhenxin spoke, other generals also expressed their support.

Only Date Masamune snorted coldly and did not speak.

This made Yanagi Zongju frown, the team is not easy to lead.

"Then this battle will go according to plan, and we will wait for the enemy to attack it halfway."

Matsudaira Nobutsuna thought for a while and said.

This was a decision they had made after careful deliberation with those daimyos, and the artillery of the Ming army was too fierce. If you prevent the enemy from landing. Then they will inevitably face heavy shelling from naval guns.

This will undoubtedly cost them a lot of money. Only by attacking them halfway, when the enemy's strength is not strong, can the enemy army be destroyed to the greatest extent.

After saying that, he glanced at Torii Tosa, and he decided to be the first to let Torii Tosa's troops play, and this war was provoked by them for their own selfish interests.

To put the shogunate, which was now established by Tosho Dai, in danger, is really a hundred deaths that will not atone for his sins.

Torii Tosa also saw through Matsudaira Nobutsuna's thoughts at a glance, which made his face extremely ugly, it seems that the fate of cannon fodder today is not to run away.

After being ready. LΓΌ Yan immediately ordered the army to start attacking.

A large number of fishing boats and Japanese ships immediately set off with soldiers laden with soldiers.

The medium-sized Western warships were parked in the middle of the sea, and the guns on one side were all aimed at the opposite shore.

As soon as the enemy moves, they will immediately open fire.

To their surprise, the Japanese ** team was in a position from afar, and had no intention of preventing the Ming army from landing on the shore.

"It seems that the enemy is planning to attack him halfway."

Jia Xu has such an old and spicy eye, and he can see through the enemy's tricks at a glance.

"Half-crossed?"

Hearing this, a smile appeared on the corner of Lu Yan's mouth.

"It's good that you don't have more casualties when you land."

He even wanted to play the trick of attacking him halfway, and the enemy really underestimated his subordinates.

He will let the enemy know what regret is.

Soon the fishing boats were on the opposite beach, and one soldier jumped out of the boat.

Some of them carried their weapons on their backs. He pushed the boats into the water.

Others carried out a Franc cannon and a bronze cannon from the boat.

The cannons were all tightly wrapped in butter-coated yellow paper to prevent them from getting water.

And ropes and stakes were tied to it. The weight of a few hundred catties can be lifted like an eight-lift sedan chair.

Soon these soldiers went to the shore and began to put on armor and line up, and they could not wear armor when landing, otherwise once the boat capsized, the heavy armor would drag them to the bottom of the sea, and they would not be able to save them when they wanted to.

They quickly put on their armor, and then the Divine Arm Crossbowman was in front, and the Qi family's arms were behind.

Date Masamune and the others also silently watched the enemy's movements until about five thousand soldiers had gathered on the shore.

Matsudaira Nobutsuna smiled and said to Tosa, "Toi-sama, you can do it." Here, I would like to wish Lord Torii a victorious start and make the first contribution to this battle for our god country. ”

Torii Tosa's face was flushed with anger, and of course he knew Matsudaira Nobutsuna's sinister intentions.

But he also knew that it was useless to fight, so he snorted coldly and took the order to leave.

At the same time, he kept sneering in his heart, he believed that Matsudaira Nobutsuna would regret this decision soon.

After Torii Tosa left, the soldiers began to talk in a whisper.

It was Matsudaira Nobutsuna's decision to attack so quickly, because he believed that this battle was the first battle between the Ming Dynasty and their divine kingdom, and that he could not afford to lose.

I'd rather kill fewer enemies than win this battle.

Of course, he was slandered by the soldiers, and felt that Matsudaira Nobutsuna was really too cautious.

But after a long time, they suddenly discovered that Toi's army had not yet attacked.

This made Matsudaira Nobutsuna feel a little annoyed, what the hell was going on, had they already ignored his orders?

"What is he doing here? Is he a coward? Didn't he see that more than two thousand more of the enemy went ashore? Did he want to wait until all the enemies were ashore before attacking? ”

Torii Tosa roared loudly at the soldiers.

Date Masamune's face sank, and Toii Tosa's performance was a little strange.

He probably didn't want to let go of the water in this battle.

If the Ming army is really defeated, then Tokugawa Iemitsu's prestige will definitely be in full swing, even covering up his father's light.

Even Toyotomi Hideyoshi could not compare to him back then, and Tadanaga would completely lose any chance of succeeding the general.

But what if you lose? I'm afraid that the people in the country will be unstable, and he will have a chance to be loyal.

Thinking of this, Date Masamune couldn't help but be shocked.

It's bad if that's the case, once the enemy gets a foothold. Then this battle will not be easy to fight.

Come to think of it. So he pulled Yagyu and Matsudaira Nobutsuna aside. I told them about my concerns.

Hearing this, Matsudaira Nobutsuna and Yagyu were both taken aback.

They are all big names in the Japanese shogunate, and they have seen a lot of intrigues, and they also feel that it is not impossible.

"So what are we going to do?"

Matsudaira Nobutsuna said hurriedly.

Hearing this, Date Masamune's face couldn't help but show a look of disdain.

You're the boss here, and you're always asking people what to do, whether you have an opinion or not.

Yagyu munchi coughed lightly, and Matsudaira Nobutsuna realized his gaffe.

He couldn't help but blush. Then ponder.

"Why don't we take the lead."

Matsudaira Nobutsuna said.

"The order cannot be changed overnight, so it will not become child's play."

Date Masamune said softly.

Matsudaira Nobutsuna couldn't help but be so angry with Date Masamune's words that his eyes turned red, and this damn old guy didn't take him seriously at all.

Yanagi pulled him by the hand, signaled him not to be angry, and then said, "I'll go and see what he's doing?" If he dares to fail deliberately, I don't mind slashing him with a sword. ”

Speaking of this, there was a hint of ruthlessness in Yanagi Zongju's eyes.

"Then please leave it to Yagyu-sama."

Matsudaira Nobutsuna said with a grateful face.

Yagyu did not waste any time, summoned a few horses, and several of his men galloped towards the army of Torii Tosa.

Coming here, Yanagi Zongju directly and unceremoniously identified himself. Let the soldiers take him to Tosa.

After knowing the identity of Yanagi Zongju, those soldiers did not dare to slack off. Hurriedly led the way for him.

Soon Yanagi found that there was a group of people in front of him, which couldn't help but make him feel a little puzzled, what was going on here.

"Toi-sama, what should I do? Your leg is broken, how to lead troops to war. Why don't we send someone to tell Matsudaira Nobutsuna-sama and let Matsudaira-sama attack the enemy with someone else. ”

One of the men screamed.

"No! Not to mention that a leg is broken, even if the limbs are broken, I crawl and crawl to fight the Ming army. Many people in the world have misconceptions about His Royal Highness Tadashi, thinking that His Royal Highness Tadashi wants to compete with his brother for the position of general, but they don't know that he is trying to motivate the general, so as not to slack off. ”

"Your Royal Highness, you have been wronged! You are obviously loyal to the general, but in order to inspire the general, you are willing to accept the world's infamy against you, this is really a strange injustice! Today I want to prove to the world that our Highness will do absolutely anything for the sake of the kingdom of God. ”

At this time, the voice of Torii Tosa's grief and indignation came from the crowd.

……

Hearing this, Yagyu Muneki's mouth couldn't help but turn into an O-shape, as if it could be stuffed into a large duck egg.

His subordinates were also extremely surprised, could it be that they had always misunderstood Zhongchang?

But soon Yanagi Zongju thought of something, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a sneer, and then he lined up everyone and walked in.

He found Torii Tosa lying on the ground, sweating profusely.

And his left leg is obviously a little deformed, which can be seen at a glance with Yagyu Zongju's many years of battlefield experience.

His left leg was definitely broken, which made him gasp.

It's really ruthless, he even broke his leg for acting, which made him not admire it.

But the Ming army was landing, and he didn't have time to spend time here at Toi.

So he pretended to be very concerned and said, "Lord Toii, what's wrong with you?" ”

After seeing Yagyu Muneki coming, Tosa Torii actually cried loudly.

"Lord Yagyu, I'm sorry Shogun. I was so useless that I fell off my horse and broke my leg in my eagerness to engage the enemy. ”

The rest of the generals also testified for him, showing Torii Tosa's loyalty to Tokugawa Iemitsu to the fullest.

Yanagi Zongju couldn't help but feel a big head for a while, he had seen a shameless one, but he had never seen such a shameless one.

He Yagyu is responsible for supervising the hundred officials, and he still doesn't know who Tadanaga and Torii Tosa are.

actually has the face to show loyalty in front of him, and sure enough, he is invincible!

"Lord Toii's loyalty to the shogun is admirable, but you see that the enemy has already landed a thousand people, we can't delay it any longer, if it drags on any longer, it will only delay the fighters. It's better to do this, if Toi-sama is not in good health, how about I ask Matsudaira-sama to send other generals to take the lead. ”

Yagyu said as he resisted the urge to kill Tosa with a sword.

"No! Absolutely not! I have to fight this battle! As a samurai, you should try to complete your mission even if you sacrifice your life, let alone just break your leg! Lord Yanagiyu, you're insulting me! ”

Tosa Hoi screamed like a male dog that had been stimulated.

"So, Toi-sama, can you order the army to attack immediately? We really can't afford to let the enemy's soldiers continue to land any longer. ”

Yanagi said with a smile.

At the same time, his eyes flashed dangerously, and his hand quietly grasped the hilt of the knife.

Tosa, who is very proficient in observing words and feelings, immediately understood the subtext of Yagyu Soju, that is, if he delayed any longer, Yagyu Soki wouldn't mind slashing him with a knife.

So he hurriedly put out his thoughts of continuing to act, and hurriedly said:

"Of course, today I am being carried and I am going to participate in this fight."

Speaking of this, Torii Tosa seemed to be in great pain, and then said loudly: "Hurry up and carry a tatami mat, today I will command the battle with an injury." ”

Those samurai were all moved, and they were extremely proud of Torii Tosa's wounded behavior.

Only Yanagi Zongju was speechless, this person was too deep in the play.

But can you hurry up, I didn't see that the number of enemies is almost in the tens of thousands. (To be continued......)
