With a bang, Matsumae Kohiro's teacup fell on the table, and he asked in surprise, "What do you say, say another word." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

At this time, he did not have the majesty of a feudal lord, his mouth was wide open, and he could even see the molars behind him.

"Lord Bing." Inoue fell to the ground, "The battle report came from Tokatsu, and the combined forces of my Matsumae Domain, Mutsu and Anui were defeated south of the Tokachi River, and more than 10,000 people were beheaded, and the rest were scattered. ”

The muscles on Matsumae Kimihiro's face twitched, and his unconscious hand held the fragment of the teacup, blood slowly flowing from the cracks in his tightly clenched hands.

"Really." His voice grew extremely dry.

"My lord, there are more than 100 ashigaru and samurai who escaped from Tokachi, and a total of more than 100 people are outside the door." Inoue trusts the volt even lower.

"Call them up." Matsumae said in a deep voice.

He was eager to know why there was such a fiasco, this is an army of more than 20,000 people, although the Anui people are almost not equipped with armor, and their combat strength is not good, but it is also more than 10,000 clan soldiers, how can they be defeated so quickly.

The talk of the Ming army's melee rout has been circulating in Japan for a hundred years, until the recent battle of Keicho Bunroku, it is said that in addition to the Ming cavalry is more difficult, its infantry combat power is stronger than the Korean army, is it that the Ming army ambushed them, or there is some sharp weapon for long-range attack.

Matsumae was puzzled.

When he asked about the back Ashigaru head and Ashigaru one by one, he was completely speechless.

The fiasco was indeed a fiasco, and Matsu Horizon, Doi Yuki, Yasuda Shinkatsu and others were also killed there, more than 10,000 people were killed by the Ming people, and the Tokachi Hao clan was wiped out. Most of the Mutsu reinforcements were killed. The small part surrendered.

He was surprised to hear it. The Ming people have sharp iron cannons, fierce melee combat, invincible cavalry, is this the Ming army, isn't this a strong army in the world, if there is such a general, how can he fight with Japan in Korea for several years.

He didn't believe it, and he asked repeatedly. Even with torture, the answers obtained are still these.

Matsumae Kimihiro finally waved everyone back.

He thought about it for a long time behind closed doors, and more than half of the military equipment in the domain was lost, and even these fallen samurai and the bereavement of Ashigaru could also bankrupt the finances of the domain, not to mention that Ashigaru had to continue to recruit Ashigaru.

If you don't block the checkpoint leading to Tokachi in the south of the northeast corner, wouldn't the Akito be able to take advantage of the emptiness of the Matsumae Domain to attack the domain in one fell swoop, so it was inevitable to recruit Ashigaru.

With such money and food, the full mobilization is light, and it is necessary to give money and food. I have a splitting headache.

In the afternoon, Matsumae Kohiro came to the tomb of his grandfather Matsumae Yoshihiro. He offered sacrifices with his own hands and knelt before the tomb.

This is already his habit, no matter what difficulties he encounters, he will sit in front of his grandfather's grave for a while and meditate for a while.

In his opinion, Matsumae Yoshihiro was a god-like figure, who brought the Matsumae family from a semi-independent small wealthy family to the throne of the Matsumae feudal lord, preparing armaments, managing internal affairs, and liaising vertically and horizontally.

He seemed to feel his grandfather's soul here, and continued to teach him to move forward, which has allowed him to overcome countless difficulties in the more than ten years since he took over.

An hour later, Matsumae opened his eyes, and his eyes regained their brightness.

"Qingguang is on the top, and Sun Gongguang vows to revive the family name and continue the Matsumae Domain, and he will not give up easily, and my Matsumae family has no one who is defeated and escaped."

Matsumae swore that he would get up and take care of the weeds in front of and behind the scenes.

After bowing deeply to the tombstone, Matsumae walked with firm steps.

When the news of the 10-victory fiasco reached Mutsu, several feudal states and wealthy clans here were mourned, which was not only a great loss of the strength of the feudal clans and wealthy clans, but also the Ming people's troops were eyeing the other side, and they did not know when they would land in Mutsu.

If there were doubts about the combat power of the Ming people in the past, this ten-victory battle proved that the Ming people were not only invincible in naval battles, but also fierce in foot combat, at least they could fight with the elite banners of the shogunate.

The news of the fiasco spread from Mutsu to the entire territory of Honshu, and for a time Akito came and surprised how many feudal samurai were there.

The Battle of Iki Island and the Great Victory of Ten Victories, the prestige of the Broken Army spread throughout Honshu, Kyushu, and Shikoku, and it can be said that the prestige of the country was raised outside the territory.

There was silence in the castle tower, and Tokugawa Iemitsu folded his hands around his chest and closed his eyes to recuperate.

His two most trusted subordinates, Inaba Masakatsu and Yanagawa Zongju, looked at each other at the bottom.

The defeat of the Ten Victories Coalition shook the shogunate, and of course the exact battle situation is unknown now, but the victory of the Ming Dynasty is certain.

This gave the Tokugawa shogunate a great crisis, repeatedly defeated by the Ming water division, and it can also be explained that the water war is not my strength, and now even the infantry battle has defeated the Ming people, even if it is a group of miscellaneous coalition forces, it has made the Tokugawa family disgraced.

After all, although the battle was fought in Tokatsu, it was actually launched under the orders of the shogunate.

This was his personal order to let the Mutsu Clans go out to win ten victories, and even sent some sailors to transport them, he did not force a certain victory, in his opinion, as long as he contained the Ming people and thwarted their plot to annex ten victories, so as to delay and wait for change.

When the shogunate sailor is completed, it is the time of the general decisive battle with the Ming people, once the Ming people and sailors are defeated, the Ming people in Ezo will be trapped and fighting, and it will not be a trouble.

Who would have thought that this gang of miscellaneous cards would collapse at the touch of a button, and they would be defeated in one day, and most of them would be killed, which was simply incompetent, and even with him, the general of the Japanese conquest, he had no face.

Shame on you, in the past hundred years of confrontation with the Ming people, the infantry army has never been so defeated, this time it appeared in his office, and many daimyo samurai who have always hated the Tokugawa family must be celebrating with their crowns.

"Your Excellency, there is no conclusive news on this matter, it is better to wait until everything is settled." Masakatsu Inaba finally opened his mouth.

"Mutsu has confirmed the news, but the battle report from the Matsumae Domain hasn't arrived yet." Tokugawa Iemitsu opened his eyes and shook his head with a wry smile, "Now it's because the accurate battle report of the Matsumae Domain hasn't arrived yet, so I will discuss it with you and others." I can't let Akito continue like this. ”

"Your Highness, now you should support the Matsuzen Domain as soon as possible, let him recover his vitality or even far better than before, nailed to the Ezo Land, and not let the Ming people successfully and completely occupy the entire Ezo Land." Yanagi advised.

"You're saying that the other daimyo will send Ashigaru or Norimoto will come to Matsuzen's aid." Inaba Masakatsu wondered.

"The ten-victory fiasco, I'm afraid that the other daimyo are extremely reluctant to come to Matsuzen to help, and even the great shogun can't force the order. After all, the Mutsu reinforcements suffered heavy losses. Plus the last expedition to Jeju. If there is another defeat, the prestige of the general will be greatly damaged. Yanagawa shook his head.

"It's just that the flag can't be moved lightly, after all, after several defeats, some people are afraid to move." Inaba is victorious.

"Of course, the flag can't go to sea, and before the sailor is completed, the flag can't board the ship and go to sea, in case of accidents, the meaning of the subordinates. Nowadays, there are many exiled samurai, who have no food and clothing, and who pick quarrels and provoke trouble in the countryside. Yanagawa looked at Tokugawa Iemitsu.

"Well, yes, it's a good idea to hire them, you can reinforce the Matsuzen Domain, let him fight with the Ming people, even if he loses again, it will not damage the general's reputation." Inaba nodded in agreement.

Tokugawa Iemitsu nodded slowly. This method is feasible, and no matter what, it has to be resisted by the Matsumae Domain.

"As for the Ming Water Master. Didn't the Dutch merchant house in Osaka explain the sharpness of the Ming people's cannons, hoping that our army could capture a Ming warship and capture its giant cannons for its gunsmiths to study. Yanagawa looked at Inaba Masakatsu.

Inaba Masakatsu nodded to indicate that there was such a thing.

"After hearing about it, the subordinates deliberately found the general of the Xiangjing Boat, and learned that the Ming people did have sharp artillery, which was stronger than the artillery of the Southern Barbarians, and the subordinates saw that the Ming people's warships were extremely strong, and whether it was on this." Yanagawa Muneju bowed.

"In this way, we have to obtain the warships of the Ming people and study them in detail, if this is the case, our army has imitated such artillery, the Ming people's sailors, hum, hum." Tokugawa Iemitsu said viciously.

Yanagawa Zongju didn't say anything, and it was enough to point it so far.

"Your Highness, now that the Daimyo Choshu, Ishibo, Tosa, Satsuma, Sendai and other places have sent military masters, they have all arrived in the town and begun to enter the affairs of the various domains, and now there is information coming, and there is no sign that they have different ambitions."

Yanagawa said.

"Well, we still need to take more precautions, these daimyo are all treacherous and cunning, and I know that my shogunate is extremely distrustful of them, and I am afraid that only after a long time can I gain something."

The Tokugawa family said that he was much older now.

"Your Excellency, rest assured, these places are all subordinate elite soldiers and strong generals, and they will definitely do their duty for the general."

Yanagawa Zongju bowed.

Tokugawa Iemitsu nodded approvingly, he was still extremely relieved about Yanagawa Zongju.

"General, there is something unknown to my subordinates, and I hope that His Highness will give me advice." Yanagawa hesitated.

"Something to say." The atmosphere is good, and Tokugawa Iemitsu is kind and pleasant.

"I don't know if we sent a military teacher to each of the daimyos, as well as the Kii Domain, the Owari Domain, and the Mito Domain."

Yanagawa asked.

Tokugawa Iemitsu glanced at Yanagawa Muneju deeply, he knew that his own art of war teacher was asking him for instructions, and whether these three families sent a war master in the end, these three were the three imperial families of the Tokugawa shogunate.

They were all grandfathers and sons, and the younger brothers of their father Hidetada were the first governors, and they were also the branches of the Tokugawa shogunate, and their combined fiefdom amounted to nearly 2 million koku.

It is said that the same clan and the same family, of course, can help each other, but these three families have the right to inherit the position of general, of course, in the case that the general has no heir or the general is perverse.

There's something interesting in this, what kind of thing did the general do perversely.

"Send the Art of War Teacher to them, after all, all the daimyo have been dispatched, in order not to be too resistant to other Daimyo, they have to be sent there, of course, the Art of War Master should not deliberately inquire about anything when he arrives there, so as not to hurt the harmony, of course, some news will be sent to the door by himself, and don't let it go."

Jiaguang understated.

Liu Chuan replied on the ground, this kind of big thing, of course he didn't dare to act arbitrarily if the general didn't speak, otherwise he would be pushed out to be a scapegoat in the future. (To be continued.) )
