Chapter 843: Fujita High School Sophomore? What a contempt
At this time, the sky was getting dark, and the night covered the earth and brought the whole world into darkness. Originally, at such a time, it was already time for the family to finish dinner and enjoy a leisurely time after a day of work.
But in Okazaki City, there are fires, and there are shouts of killing everywhere. There is no laid-back atmosphere at all, but it is full of tension and frightening elements.
Since Tokugawa Kayo entered Okazaki Castle with his army, Yuji Kawabe began to lead his men and began to kill the defenders in Okazaki Castle.
If you want to completely control Okazaki Castle, then the defenders of Okazaki Castle will definitely have to be wiped out. Because keeping these people will have a great hidden danger for future rule.
Therefore, some of the old nobles and wealthy families in the Miyazaki domain are the targets that are bound to be cleansed.
Even if Zhao Hongyu didn't ask for this, Tokugawa Kayo wanted to do it, not to mention that this was still approved and made clear by Zhao Hongyu, the crown prince.
Encouraged by the reward that they could plunder for a day after the city was broken, the soldiers of the 1st and 2nd Corps of the Imperial Alliance Army who entered Okazaki Castle showed their strong combat effectiveness.
Coupled with the fact that their morale was high and the enemy's morale had dropped to a low point, it was very easy for them to kill the defenders in Okazaki Castle.
Often, the defenders of Okazaki Castle would either turn around and run away or surrender en masse when they encountered Yuji Riverside's troops.
The confrontation they encounter is very rare.
Although there are some sporadic resistances, these resistances are not at all climatic and will be resolved in a very short time.
As a result, after nightfall, the four gates of Okazaki Castle and the main points of the city streets were basically controlled by the Imperial Army.
In other words, Fujita High School has been completely trapped in his residence. There is no way to escape Okazaki Castle.
And those temporarily conscripted militiamen, in the battle in the city, surrendered to the Imperial Allied Army in batches, which made Yuji Kawabe very happy.
After all, most of these captives who surrendered could be converted into soldiers under their command in the future. Then they will become their own descendants in the future, as a foothold in Kyushu.
Therefore, he is willing to accept these guys who are willing to surrender.
As for those who are unwilling to surrender, Yuji Kawabe will not be polite and soft at all.
The doors of the houses in Okazaki Castle are closed. Despite the shouts of murder in the streets, the residents were merely observing the situation outside through the cracks in the doors.
Moreover, the Imperial Alliance Army and the soldiers of the Imperial Gene did not disturb those ordinary people, after all, they will all be the subjects of the empire in the future.
And the reward promised by Yuji Kawabe at that time was not aimed at these civilians.
In the end, he made an explanation, that is, when looting, the target is not allowed to be placed on the people, but only those wealthy nobles, if they find that there is anger intruding on the people, then immediately cut off the head after grabbing.
It is under this strong threat of Yuji Riverbe. So don't look at the chaos in Okazaki City, but the harm to the people at the bottom is still not big.
This also made many people in Okazaki City breathe a sigh of relief.
The 1,000 Imperial Gene Human soldiers who followed Yoshiro Tokugawa had already divided into four squadrons. Then it occupied the four gates of Okazaki Castle.
Yuji Kawabe and more than 1,100 soldiers of the Imperial Alliance Army have surrounded the residence of Fujita Takaji.
There were another 1,000 Imperial Army Genetic Soldiers, who were divided into small teams, and no fifteen or twenty people began to patrol Okazaki Castle. In order to prevent some gangsters and ronin in Okazaki City from making trouble and taking the opportunity to hurt the people at the bottom.
So, the situation in Okazaki Castle after entering the night. Basically, it has been completely controlled by Tokugawa Kayo and Yuji Kawabe.
Outside Fujita's residence in the second year of high school, there is a large square paved with gravel. In this square gathered a dense crowd of more than 6,000 former Okazaki defenders who had surrendered and laid down their arms.
These guys' eyes weren't the slightest bit angry, they looked very numb.
Compared to those elites who died in the Maitreya Plain, they are really not a little weaker.
But it's not surprising to think about it, after all, they are all farmers, and they were temporarily recruited to Okazaki Castle by Fujita High School.
Originally, they thought that the enemies they were going to deal with were some very weak guys, but they didn't expect these enemies to be so powerful, everything exceeded their original guesses and estimates.
In addition, the three horrific rounds of artillery bombardment during the siege of the city in the afternoon, as well as the fierceness shown by the Imperial Allied troops during the street battles in the city, completely discouraged these militiamen from continuing to fight.
There was no way for them to fight such a formidable enemy, because there was simply not the slightest hope of victory.
Of course, this also has something to do with the militia's lack of will to fight.
Compared with the elite soldiers who died in the Maitreya Plain, it is still possible for these militiamen to fight a smooth battle, but it is completely impossible to say that they will fight any hard-fought battles.
Many militiamen who laid down their arms and surrendered were thinking that they would be able to go home immediately, and then take care of their wives and children, as well as the few acres of land at home.
Because they are not official soldiers, they are more concerned about their own affairs than those who are paid by their lords to fight for their lords.
You must know that these militiamen came to Okazaki Castle only because of the conscription of Fujita's high school sophomore.
After all, on the side of the Wa Kingdom, the lord has the right to recruit the young men in the territory and bring his own food to fight for himself.
However, the combat effectiveness of these conscripts is very low.
Come to think of it, they even have to bring their own food, so it is conceivable how it is possible to fight to the death for the lord.
Therefore, it is okay for such people to form a team to fight a tailwind battle after victory, because they can get some loot. But in times of adversity, these are the groups that are the quickest to collapse.
Therefore, in the face of Yuji Riverside them. It's nothing new that these guys will surrender in droves.
Coincidentally, Yuji Riverbe is relatively short of manpower, after all, he now has more than 600 people in the First Legion, and more than 500 people in the Second Legion, which is not very loyal.
Therefore, he desperately needs to replenish and expand the strength he has at hand.
Because he knew that with the name of the Tokugawa family, it was completely impossible for him to compare.
As long as the Kyushu side is stabilized, then some of the former ministers of the Tokugawa family will come to Kyushu one after another to seek refuge in Tokugawa Kayo.
At that time, Tokugawa Kayo had the assistance of these retainers. It's a big threat to yourself.
At the same time, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to choose himself as a containment of the Tokugawa family, then he must expand the forces at hand.
These things, Yuji Kawabe had thought of a long time ago.
It's only the stupid wellhead that makes three, and he hasn't thought about this aspect at all.
More than 6,000 captives, after picking and choosing, at least half of them can be left, then he can add more than 3,000 troops.
Then those who were eliminated. You can also make a favor and give it to Tokugawa Kayo as her capital.
Hehe, if you do so well, you can get a reputation as a good person, this thing is very cost-effective.
"Your Excellency. Our army has surrounded the residence of Fujita High School, and at the same time, we have been informed that the entire Okazaki Castle is now under the complete control of our army, and we ask you to show us the next arrangements. ”
After listening to the report of his subordinates, Yuji Kawabe laughed.
"Hahaha. As far as Fujita's sophomore year of high school is concerned, he dares to have the heart to confront us. Originally, I thought he had some skills, but now it looks like that's just that. ”
For with a force of less than 10,000 troops. came to fight the entire plan against the Kyushu coalition army, and Yuji Kawabe was more supportive of Zhao Hongyu.
It can be said that at this step, he once again came together with Zhao Hongyu.
Because Yuji Kawabe believes that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince from the so-called Song Empire in the Americas, he is absolutely confident that he will make this kind of arrangement, and he is not the kind of idiot who doesn't understand anything.
At the same time, after the Battle of Osaka, Yuji Kawabe had a deeper understanding of Zhao Hongyu.
Sure enough, the strength of the Imperial Army in the First World War was perfectly displayed. confirmed Yuji Kawabe's speculation all along, and strengthened his loyalty to Zhao Hongyu.
On the other hand, Yuji Kawabe, who already considered himself a courtier of the Song Empire, began to turn around and despise his former compatriots.
For example, the initiator of the Kyushu Coalition Army, Fujita Takaji.
For the name of Fujita High School, Yuji Kawabe has actually heard of it.
After all, as a daimyo Fujita high school sophomore, there will always be some people in the territory of various daimyos in Japan who will brag for him to spread.
Therefore, the so-called Daimyo of the Kyushu Tiger Wolf Fujita High School is still very loud outside.
In addition, the people of Kyushu have always been brave and ruthless, and they do not obey the dispatch of the shogunate, and even the shogunate has nothing to do about it, so people have a high opinion of the daimyo of Kyushu.
But the current Fujita high school sophomore, in the eyes of Yuji Kawabe, is just a general.
Yes, don't look at how evil it is blowing outside, but just with the various reactions of Fujita High School now, it is enough for Yuji Kawabe to express his incomparable contempt.
But if Fujita had been a qualified daimyo and commander, he would not have been surrounded by himself at all.
Because when the city was attacked in the afternoon, there were no troops attacking the three gates of Okazaki Castle, and he could have left Okazaki Castle completely. But this guy didn't leave his home, and was stuck in the house by himself.
It's not what an idiot is!
Anyway, Yuji Kawabe already despises Fujita High School from the bottom of his heart. (To be continued......)
