The battle in the middle of it can be said that the wind swept away the leaves, and there was nothing to say.

The first is the surprise, the second is the power of firearms, and the third is the combat effectiveness of the Black Flag Army and the Special Operations Army.

I am used to seeing the city walls of Tanzhou, and then looking at these small northern cities of Fusang, it is like a fence.

So far, Sun Shixu has controlled half of the Dongshan Road north of Ziwakamatsu, and the two Fuso countries of Mutsu and Dewa are completely under Sun Shixu's control.

Now I am qualified to talk to Emperor Suzaku. The main thing is that Peng Xiao needs to be returned, because it is time to break away from the state of Chu and become a traitor.

The days that followed were bloody, and there was not a day that did not kill.

Sun Shixu slaughtered the Oku Hagaoka clan, the Nanbu clan, and the Akita clan of Dewa like a devil, as long as it was the men of the Hakuoka clan, the Nanbu clan, and the Akita clan, all of them were killed, and they were killed for five days before they stopped.

More than 2,000 people were killed in three days.

Sun Shixu was very helpless, if he didn't kill these people, he might have a rebellion in the territory at any time, and he and these foreigners couldn't govern these territories well, and the fastest way to achieve results was to quickly remove the root cause of the possible rebellion.

And then, Sun Shixu's strategy began to change and began internal affairs, because he needed a stable territory, and the six thousand Chu army and three thousand six hundred indigenous soldiers were his backing.

In fact, Sun Shixu was poisoned by the Baili Wuji country and the nation, just imagine that even the people of the Central Plains had no concept of the country at that time, let alone these Fusang people.

Sun Shixu left the internal affairs to Xu Shouren and fifty students, and began to reorganize the Chu army and indigenous soldiers, with the aim of recruiting soldiers in Mutsu and Dewa. Forced conscription, of course.

Sun Shixu asked Peng Xiao to transport Ezo's food and ordnance to Wakamatsu before leaving.

After that's done. He also forcibly "disarmed" half of the cold weapons of the sailors on the Zhenliao, Zhenhe, and ships, and of course it was impossible for the firearms to be left behind. The only firearms Sun Shixu left behind were a large amount of gunpowder and mines, and even the grenades were all brought back.

This is Baili Wuji's order, according to Baili Wuji's assumption, Fusang should be in the era of cold weapons after a thousand years.

After sending Peng Xiao away, Sun Shixu began to recruit soldiers.

With the exception of Ezo, all men from 16 to 25 in Mutsu and Dewa were forcibly drafted.

In a month, the number of conscripts exceeded nine thousand.

And the prisoners in the previous war, after killing all the officers above the head of the Ashigaru group among all the captives. Sun Shixu ordered that all the 8,000 captives and the 9,000 recruits who had been recruited be scattered and reorganized.

With these people. Together with the original 6,000 Chu troops and 3,600 Ezo natives, there were 27,000 soldiers.

Sun Shixu had no intention of mixing the Black Flag Army or the Special Operations Army with the Fusang soldiers, because he thought that this was not the Chu State, not my race, and his heart would be different, so Sun Shixu just mixed the Black Flag Army with the Special Operations Army to form a new army and change its name to the Expeditionary Force.

Set up a separate army of 3,600 Ezo natives. It's called the Ezo Army.

The 17,000 Fusang soldiers were set up as a separate army, which was called the Fuso Army.

With the spear armor brought by the Chu State, all these 2,600 people were organized into pikemen. In the Ezo Army and Fuso Army, all officers above the rank of Ashigaru General were all officers in the Black Flag Army. And start training.

If there are no surprises. Sun Shixu thinks that it is not too difficult to hold on to Mutsu and Deyu. As long as these two countries are not lost, there is no danger to Ezo across the sea.

Mutsu specializes in wood, placer gold, copper, and horses, and Dewa specializes in gold, silver, copper, and wood.

With this, it will be possible to buy supplies from the countries of the south. The annual stone height of the three territories is enough to maintain the current army size, not to mention the large amount of grain hoarding from the Chu State.

The facts did not develop according to Sun Shixu's expectations. It turned out that Sun Shixu wanted to use the Three Kingdoms as the foundation to induce Emperor Suzaku to recognize his strength. So that he can truly enter the inner core of Fuso.

But Emperor Suzaku couldn't stop Fujiwara Tadadahei's anger at all because of his power, and he didn't want to stop it, because he still wanted to continue to see Sun Shixu's strength.

Fujiwara Tadhei was very angry, and he had just appointed him to the official position of Ezo Mamoru to occupy Mutsu and Dewa in less than a month, and even wantonly killed the entire clan of officials, which was simply a conspiracy.

But after all, it was Ezo Mamoru appointed by himself, and Fujiwara Tadahei didn't want to slap himself in the face, so in the name of the emperor, he ordered the five countries of Hitachi, Ueno, Shimono, Musashi, and Echigo, which were adjacent to Mutsu, to gather 30,000 troops plus 5,000 cavalry from Kai to defeat Sun Shixu.

A month later.

April 21.

When the 35,000 combined army approached Wakamatsu Castle, they camped fifty miles away and prepared to attack the city.

At this time, Sun Shixu had already prepared.

Sun In-wook didn't want to fight.

I don't want to defend the city, this kind of wall can't be held at all.

Sun Shixu decided to use the old method of a hundred miles of unscrupulous.

Because Sun Shixu believes that the old way must be a good way.

The old method has been tested in battle.

Sun Shixu ordered all the soldiers of the expeditionary force to plant a large number of mines within 20 zhang in front of Wakamatsu Castle, and to place the strings in bamboo pipes according to the old method and bury them in the ground. And the soldiers who pulled the strings hid behind the city gates.

A lot means a lot. A lot means a lot of it.

Sun Shixu has nothing to be reluctant to, he is very reluctant.

Among the shipwrecks of ordnance that Peng Xiao had, there were 18,000 mines.

Landmines are really hard to use in the offensive and in the field.

Therefore, Sun Shixu does not want these mines to become a burden, and he cannot waste them.

As a result, a large number of his orders were to plant half of the mines in front of the city.

In addition to infantry and cavalry, the enemy outside the city also had a small number of ladders, and there were no large siege equipment, which made Sun Shixu very relieved.

He even poured a cup of sweet potato roast in the city and invited Xu Shouren to drink it.

Under Xu Shouren's eyes, Sun Shixu reluctantly drank the wine in the cup before he began to organize his armor and go to the city gate to watch the battle.

Yes, it's a spectator.

Sun Shixu thought that if this could not stop the enemy army of Fusang, then he could only find a boat with Xu Shouren and flee back to Chu.

The offensive began.

The 30,000-strong army pressed towards the southern city wall.

The five thousand cavalry were not suitable for a siege, so they swept on both sides. Running back and forth, it's a lot of fun.

The enemy forces are getting closer and closer.

Already close to it, enemy soldiers had begun to set up ladders on the walls.

Dozens more soldiers began to climb.

At this time, Sun Shixu absentmindedly picked up the signal flag. And took out two pieces of cotton and stuffed them in his ears.

No, the wind was strong on the city tower, and I lost my eyes for a while, and I wanted to wipe my eyes with my hands, so I had to throw the signal flag down the ...... the city tower.

So "boom...... The sound of "boom ......" is endless.

Sun Shixu raised his eyes and looked.

From a distance, I saw that the soldiers of the Fusang Army and the Ezo Army who had withdrawn to the north of the city were all squatting on the ground with their heads crossed, not daring to move in the slightest.

Sun Shixu couldn't help but curse in his heart. (To be continued......)
