At the Yuankou fortification, samurai with a katana pinned to their waists stood on the stone ramparts and patrolled back and forth, and archers stood on the arrow towers and towers.

The kamikaze was raging, however, the expeditionary force of the Xia army still captured Iki Island and was about to attack Hakata Bay.

The 400,000 Japanese army was like a great enemy.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses will fight for the small area of Hakata Bay.

Yoshikawa Motoharu and Kobayakawa Takakei, assisted Mori Terumoto, who was a generation younger than them, and led the Mori family's legions to support the Motoko fortification.

Among them, Kobayakawa Takakei is known for his resourcefulness: "The Central Plains soldiers and horses are good at group combat, and we are good at 'one horse', such a narrow terrain, we have an advantage, so the Xia army will definitely be defeated." ”

Motoharu Yoshikawa agreed with Kobayakawa Takakei's opinion: "But we will be killed and wounded many soldiers and horses in this battle, and we are prepared for more than fifty percent of the casualties." ”

"The four brothers of the Shimazu family seem to have sent a detachment of soldiers and horses to Hirado Castle."

"It seems that the lord of Hirado Castle, Heiyoshi, is against him."

"Xia Jun, it's Xia Jun's warship!"

Suddenly, a samurai on a watchtower struck a gong and shouted a great victory, reminding everyone!

"Xia Jun!?"

Yoshikawa Motoharu and Kobayakawa Takakei glanced at each other and couldn't help sweating.

Even though the kamikaze continued, the Great Xia Dynasty still risked being destroyed by the kamikaze and stormed Kyushu Island!

The people of Dongying still overestimated the destructive power of the kamikaze.

The fleet of the Great Xia Dynasty had two navigators, Zheng He and Zheng Zhilong, and the warships were excellent, and they were not so easily destroyed by the kamikaze.

Although the losses were still very large, since the Great Xia Dynasty had made up its mind to destroy the four islands of Dongying, it was ready to bear the price!

The two elders of the Maori family, Motoharu Yoshikawa and Takakei Kobayakawa, quickly climbed a watchtower and looked at the horizon ahead.

All the daimyo and samurai of the Yuankou fortifications climbed the watchtowers, arrow towers, and catapults to observe the powerful opponents.

The strength of the Xia army even triggered the divine wind that guarded the four islands of Dongying.

Tachibana Michiyuki, Tachibana Chiyo father and daughter, Takahashi Shaoyun, Takahashi Tonghu father and son, also watched from the heights.

Daimyo such as Otomo Munarin, Mori Governor Mori Terumoto, Shimazu Governor Shimazu Yoshihisa, and other daimyo were pale, and in their sight, the mighty fleet covered the sea of Hakata Bay!

10,000 warships!

In order to prevent the kamikaze from causing the warships to collide with each other, the distance between each warship was so large that the entire Hakata Bay was filled with the warships of the Xia army!

Such a terrifying scene made the hands of all the samurai tremble.

This is their next enemy, and the Yuankou fortifications in Hakata Bay are doomed to blood.

"Dreamlike ......"

Tachibana Michiyuki is known as the "Kyushu God of the Army", but Kyushu Island is not big, and seeing such a huge military situation, Tachibana Michiyuki's palms are sweating.

It's rare for Tachibana Chiyo to see her father nervous because of the approaching war.

When Takahashi Tonghu saw the mighty Xia army ships, his eyes turned fierce: "As long as I repel the Xia army, I can enter Tachibana Mountain City." ”

Tachibana Michiyuki accepted him as his adopted son, and the condition for him to enter Tachibana Mountain Castle was to make meritorious contributions in the battle of the "Yuankou Defense Base".

Takahashi Tonghu is the first fierce general on Kyushu Island and has confidence in his own force.

The mountainous terrain of Kyushu Island doomed the Xia army to be difficult to deploy, and individual force was very important.

The famous generals of the Shimazu family gritted their teeth, they were the main force defending Kyushu Island, and the Satsuma samurai of the Shimazu family were undoubtedly the most courageous warriors on Kyushu Island, active for hundreds of years.

Not all samurai were like the four belligerent brothers Takahashi and the Shimazu family, and the vast majority of samurai were so heavy that they almost suffocated.

The dense Great Xia warships spread all over the sea, the dragon flag was waving, and the decks of the lucky ships were flanked by sharp armor, and the cold bowls were aimed at the coast.

The tens of thousands of warships of the Xia army were divided into two groups, and it seemed that they planned to divide the troops into two routes, attacking Hakata Bay from the east and west, and seizing the Yuankou fortification.

The beach-grabbing landing battle turned into a beach-grabbing battle.

In fact, Xia Jun had experienced similar battles before.

When the Fubo army was attacking Goryeo, the king of Goryeo, Yi Sung-gye, set up a stone fortress in the area of Seoul.

Only this time, the daimyo of Toei were more prepared.

Also, the terrain of Kyushu Island is more rugged.

"Li Chenggui, your Goryeo army attacked the west side, and I personally attacked the east side. In addition, Gan Ning attacked Shikashima, gathered elite forces on the island, waited until the tide was low, and killed from the direction of Shikashima to the land, bypassing the 'Motoko fort'......"

As the commander of the first batch of Eastern Route Army, Le Yi began to deploy to attack Hakata Bay.

The Xia army was on the offensive and had to attack as well.

Kitakyushu is often stormy, and when the kamikaze is triggered, hurricanes hit the nearby islands from time to time, and the Xia fleet in the sea could suffer losses at any time.

According to Le Yi's plan, if Hakata Bay cannot be taken in half a month, then the fleet will most likely need to retreat to Hirado Island and other places to rest, restore morale, and wait for reinforcements.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, the difficulty of this battle is beyond what you can afford now, so your soldiers and horses will serve as reserves for the time being. How about your troops and horses when you occupy Hakata Bay, or when you need to do it? ”

Le Yi considered that the attack on the "Yuankou Fortification", the Xia army needed to fight for the stone barrier without siege equipment, the difficulty was not trivial, in case Chu Wu had three long and two short in this battle, Le Yi could not bear the consequences.

The crown prince can take risks, but also in moderation.

Chu Wu nodded.

Le Yi has experienced a hundred battles and has served Chutian for twenty years, and he is definitely trustworthy.

At this time, as the crown prince, not interfering with Le Yi's judgment is already the greatest contribution.

After Le Yi made the deployment, the troops and horses prepared to attack.

Zhuge Liang, Yang Xingmi, and the royal wild boar were temporarily under the jurisdiction of Chu Wu and were the direct subordinates of Chu Wu.

Lu Lingqi finally relieved herself, and heard that the Xia army was going to start attacking the "Yuankou Fortification", and she wanted to participate in the war.

"You are now the head of the East Palace Guard, follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and you can't go out without permission."

Zhuge Liang stopped the impulsive Lu Lingqi.

Zhuge Liang was responsible for assisting the prince, while Lu Lingqi was subjugated as the head of the East Palace Guard, and her duty was to protect the prince's safety.

Lu Lingqi stopped it.

The vanguard of the Xia army had already boarded the boat, planning to take advantage of the high tide to go ashore in one fell swoop to fight and seize the "Yuankou defensive base".

The first batch of Xia troops to land may die in nine lives.

"Ask the imperial court for instructions and send more fierce generals to fight for Hakata Bay."

Le Yi believes that the number of fierce generals in his hands is still insufficient, and he may need the imperial court to send a second batch of reinforcements to break through the "Yuankou Fortification".

In Hirado Castle, Mi Zhu waited anxiously in the teleportation array.

The teleportation array between Hirado Castle and the Central Plains, after Mi Zhu persuaded the lord of Hirado Castle, Taira Yoshimori, had been secretly opened, and a group of Xia troops came out of the teleportation array.
