Li Lu stepped on a stiff and cold Ashigaru corpse and looked into the distance with a telescope. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He found that the ashigaru of a Japanese man was gone, except for the hundreds of corpses on the ground.

"Set up camp a mile in front of the pier, send out the night to check the enemy's eastward direction, and be sure not to let the Japanese artillery approach the camp."

The two thousand generals under him bowed down and agreed, and immediately sent out the night not to collect, and at the same time began a thousand general guard, and a thousand general team set up a camp.

Li Lu looked at the Japanese people looking from a distance, and immediately sent the Korean soldiers transferred from Jeju, this is Zhao Lie's order, patrolling, monitoring and interrogating the Japanese people is necessary in the Japanese area, but this is also the most hated, so this job is the most suitable to be handed over to the Korean soldiers who have a feud with the Japanese people, Li Lu thought so.

Therefore, when he came here this time, he brought 500 Korean soldiers to appease the place.

The 500 Korean soldiers were also trained for a long time, and they marched in a neat line towards the Japanese houses on both sides of the official road.

Most of the Japanese had fled, but a small number of hundreds of Japanese had not left, watching in horror as the armored North Korean soldiers rushed towards them.

As soon as the North Korean soldiers arrived, they began to search from house to house, and as a result, they found more than a dozen Japanese who had been wounded by scattered bullets in several households, and they were seriously injured and could not escape, so they went into hiding, and they were immediately beheaded by the North Korean soldiers, and the Japanese families who hid them were also beheaded.

The North Korean soldiers were really merciless to the Japanese who almost wiped out the country and caused trouble in Korea for ten years, and the few Ming soldiers who watched and supervised them were also smacking their tongues. It's a question. At first, the Japanese invaded Korea. How can the North Korean army be so poor.

Bloody and terrifying immediately enveloped Xiaomu Harbor, and the Japanese were terrified when they saw the Korean soldiers, but fortunately, the Ming soldiers watched, and the Korean soldiers did not go too far except killing a dozen ashigaru and more than 20 Japanese soldiers.

As a result, Kogi slowly calmed down.

The Ming soldiers on the shore were busy setting up large camps, erecting towers, and digging moats. It's not easy, but it's the best way to prevent your opponent from raiding.

The ship's sailors were not idle, they were unloading the huge cannons from the ship, which were ten twenty-four-pounder and twenty thirty-six-pounder long-barreled cannons pulled from Jeju's stockpile, all of which were siege weapons.

The Military Intelligence Department of the Broken Army has reported that the city defense of Zuodu Island is quite strong and not easy to attack, and it is best to have huge artillery to suppress the formation.

This has the help of giant cannons, but these things are too laborious to move thousands of catties and nearly 10,000 catties, and now it is just the first cannon to land, these are the guns used for the fort or naval guns. There were no gun carts, so they had to be pulled by mules, horses, or oxen. It is also quite time-consuming and labor-intensive.

One of the tasks of the Korean soldiers was to collect large livestock from the Japanese people, but fortunately, there was no shortage of this at the wharf, and finally found more than 10 ox carts, more than 20 horse carts, and more than 30 loose cattle and horses.

As for the collection of these big livestock, of course, they don't give a penny, have you ever seen the occupation army send money to the vanquished, he has to suffer without money, and it is already very merciful not to harm their personal safety, of course, these Japanese people can only dare to be angry but dare not speak, of course, behind the scenes, these soldiers are scolded all over the place.

With the help of these large livestock, the transportation of cannons is not a worry.

In the evening, the camp had been erected, and two moats had been dug outside, but fortunately it was a beach, the sand was relaxed, and the work was not tiring.

Outside, there are moats and horse guards, plus the surveillance of the towers, it can be said that it is impregnable, and there is no possibility of sneak attacks by the Japanese people.

Li Lu was not in a hurry to march to the interior, and he was not in a hurry, it would take a day to unload the cannon, and it was useless to be in a hurry.

He was not in a hurry, but in a hurry, Maeda Fuyoshi fled back to Sado Castle in the Central Plains, and immediately reported to Yasuda Yu, the Sado Commissioner.

"Akito, you read that right." Yasuda said in surprise.

"There is no mistake or omission in the adult, and the subordinates are willing to use the head as a guarantee." Maeda bowed.

"So what now?" Yasuda Xiong is a little sluggish, he is the flag of the general's family, but he is the executive officer who manages the general affairs, not the ashigaru general, the cavalry general, and the iron artillery general who charge into battle, in the face of such a situation, Yasuda Xiong is a bit bearish.

"My lord, now you should immediately call back the ashigaru in the Xiangchuan area, and then gather the young people in the Xiangchuan area to help defend the city, and in addition, the young people near the town town must also be recruited to defend the city."

Maeda Fengyi said in a hurry, and he was extremely disdainful of Yasuda Xiong in his heart, Nima, you are still so sluggish, it is really useless.

But no matter how urgent Maeda Fengyi is, he has to issue an order from Sado, which is all the mobilization of Sado, and he is a major ashigaru general.

"Okay, okay, this is going to send someone to call for the police immediately." Yasuda Xiong strongly agreed with the summoning of men to defend the city, the more people there were to defend the city, the more hope there was for him, and his life was guaranteed.

Yasuda Yu successively sent several subordinates and immediately began to collect the number of people.

"My lord, since it is to defend the city, rice and rolling wood and stones are necessary, if the enemy army attacks the city for several months, we will not starve, and if there is no rolling wood and stones, the city may not be able to defend." Maeda continued.

"Well, now that the rice grain is enough to last for more than two months, the general will definitely send a large army to rescue at that time, and as for the rolling wood and stone arrows, prepare immediately." Yasuda sobered up a little and began to set up.

Smoke rose from all over Sado, and those who could go fled to the town, and those who didn't want to go went to the mountains and woodlands to hide.

The horrors that appeared in Korea and Daming are now reappearing in Sado.

In the next two days, 500 ashigaru guarding the northern Aikawa gold mine returned under the leadership of Ashigaru Bantou, and brought back thousands of taels of newly refined gold and silver, and more than 3,000 young miners and smelters from the Aikawa area also entered the city and began to help defend the city.

There were also 2,000 Qingzhuang people near the central town town who entered the city, which made the number of people defending the city break through the 10,000 mark, which made Yasuda Xiong and Maeda Fengyi feel a lot more stable.

It is said that it is easy to do things when there are many people, and these people will quickly prepare the rolling wood and stones, and if the house is not enough to be demolished, the city will be lost, and the house will be of use.

Between the sharpness of the Ming people's scattered bullets. Maeda Fengyi ordered to prepare more iron shields and wooden shields for protection. It doesn't matter if it's not enough. It was still demolished, so many people's houses did not have to be demolished, but the doors inside and outside were demolished, and almost every household was wide open, and I didn't know how hospitable the people of Sado were.

In this way, more than 10,000 people were frantically busy, the baggage of defending the city was accumulating more and more, and the new miners began to form a group. It's not too cluttered.

Sado was frantically preparing for war, Li Lu and Qi Wei were happily talking at the dock, and it turned out that they had learned a message from the Japanese sailors captured on the local warships that this fleet was here to carry gold and silver.

As soon as he heard that there was gold and silver in the three tattered ships that had been bombarded by Tiago's can opener, Qi Wei hurriedly sent people to repair them, saying that they couldn't be sunk, otherwise it would be too troublesome to salvage.

After a day of tinkering. These three ships were always saved, although it was impossible to restore them to their old appearance. But sailing is still fine if you don't encounter big winds and waves.

After counting, there are more than 19,000 taels of gold and 150,000 taels of silver, which is the output of nearly half a year, which makes Li Lu and Qi Wei very happy.

If you say what Lord Zhao likes the most, in addition to money or money, it's not that Lord Zhao is so greedy for money, as a subordinate of the lineage, of course he knows that the warships, cannons, armor and horses under their command are piled up with gold and silver, and this harvest is enough to break the expenses of the army in March, and Lord Zhao will always be extremely happy, it is really a windfall.

Three days later, all the cannons were unloaded and dismounted, and more than 2,000 infantry troops of the Broken Army began to march northeast to Sado Castle.

As for the armor handed over to the sailors and the guards of the warships near the shore, with the escort of the warships and cannons, it is really a joke that the Japanese people stormed the camp.

In fact, it's not far away, Sado Island is not too big, the two places are fifty or sixty miles, but the cannons can't move too slowly, and the infantry team really can't help but guard, if these cannons are sneak attacked, it will be troublesome.

So the team crawled towards Sado at a speed of twenty miles a day.

At noon on the fourth day, a team of more than 2,000 people appeared under Sado Castle, and Li Lu, who was five miles away from the city, ordered to set up a large camp, and he took his personal guards to two miles away from the city to take a closer look at Sado Castle.

Sado Castle has been around for hundreds of years, but it was originally a rammed earth wall, but 30 years ago, gold mines were opened here, and after the Tokugawa family came to power, the gold and silver mines here flourished, and became the main source of wealth for the shogunate, and the Tokugawa family rebuilt Sado Castle and covered it with bricks in order to strengthen its protection.

At this time, the city displayed in front of Li Lu can be regarded as a strong city, the city is three zhang high, one zhang wide, the moat is more than one zhang wide, and the depth is more than one zhang.

Li Lu saw that this was a city filled with human lives, and there were more than 2,000 people under his command, and they could not be attacked.

Li Lu was glad to have the help of the giant cannon, otherwise he would be in big trouble this time.

On the first day, the two armies just came to meet and look at each other, and the broken army stood up steadily and rested at night.

At the beginning of the second day, the Ming army camp began to make noise.

Yasuda Xiong and Maeda Fengyi, who received the news, hurriedly came to Xichengtou to look.

In the middle of the hour, there were 1,000 Ming troops in armor out of the camp, and they set up a military formation three miles away from the city.

Yasuda and Maeda used telescopes bought from the Portuguese to watch the Ming army.

I saw the wind fluttering the flag, the array was neat, the soldiers were high-spirited, and the armor on their bodies was shining with the faint cold light of metal in the sun.

Hmph, Maeda took a breath of cold air.

Yasuda Yu didn't know why he looked at Maeda Fengyi.

Maeda Fengyi was surprised that all the Ming army was iron-armoured, he looked back at the ashigaru under his family, although it was the general's banner team, but it was also bamboo armor and armor armor, in the past, these armor against many daimyo armorless ashigaru can be said to be well-equipped, but it is really not enough to meet this Ming army.

Then when a thousand armor troops marched in unison, they were already numb from the shock.

When the thirty cannons were transported out by the oxen and horses, Yasuda Xiong and Maeda Fengyi's faces were immediately discouraged, and they were in great trouble when they saw such a thick cannon. (To be continued.) )
