Chapter 1258: Defection
"No, no, I didn't doubt the authenticity of the family's order, I'm just a little curious, why did the family want me to fight against the water and stab Tokugawa Iemitsu from behind......"
Mitsuri Shimazu said hurriedly.
"Humph!"
Kato Takashi snorted coldly, "What's so curious about this? Ming Jun is not a good bird, is it difficult to be Dao Chuan Jiaguang is our friend? Don't forget, decades ago, when Tokugawa Ieyasu persecuted us, how many warriors of the Satsuma clan died! Now that the Ming army is strong and difficult to resist, the head of the family has reached an agreement with the Ming army, as long as he helps the Ming army defeat Tokugawa Iemitsu, the entire Shikoku Island will belong to our Satsuma Domain in the future! Isn't this condition enough to make the lord turn against him? ”
Shimazu Mitsuri was shocked, the head of the family actually surrendered to the Ming army!
"Don't hesitate!"
Kato Takashi said in a deep voice, "Shimazu Mitsuri, the Ming army is stronger than you and I imagined, a few days ago, our army fought with the Ming army, within a day, the Ming army only used a thousand troops, and took the Osumi Fort, and then under the siege of our army's five thousand troops, held on for two days, we can't help people at all, now people can fight with Tokugawa Iemitsu here, and when the Ming army's fleet and reinforcements arrive, do you think Tokugawa Iemitsu can still support it?" What's more, the Ming army also exchanged Shikoku Island? You can't find such a good thing with a lantern! ”
"I care so much about him, as long as the head of the family orders it here, then I will do it! Once the Ming army attacks the main Tokugawa army, then I will immediately lead 10,000 elite Satsuma clan to attack! ”
Shimazu Mitsuri made up his mind that if he could exchange for a Shikoku island, then the Satsuma Domain would really be developed, and wouldn't his status also have to rise?
It's just that what Shimazu Mitsuri doesn't know is that now the lord of the Satsuma Domain has already been replaced, and Shimazu Mitsuhisa's head has been cut off by his brothers, and Shimazu Hisashi has brazenly sat in the position of the lord of the domain, and the dove occupies the magpie's nest.
On the third day, Xia Wanchun and Tan Guilin gathered all the Tianxiong troops and brazenly launched an attack on the Dongying army, sixty artillery pieces opened fire in full swing, and the shells smashed over without a fatality!
One shell after another landed on the position of the Dongying army, constantly setting off a series of violent explosions, and the entire Dongying land was once again shrouded in the smoke of war!
The Dongying army also showed no weakness, and put all the artillery into the counterattack, although the power was far inferior to the Ming army, but it was much stronger than nothing.
However, it is clear that today's battle is unusual.
As soon as the war began, the Ming army actually showed its elite cavalry, Qin Mufeng only took away thousands of elite cavalry, and tens of thousands of elite cavalry gathered in the Beppu Bay area, and they have been recuperating and recuperating, and there was no attack, today, finally waiting for this time.
He Qingtian, the deputy general of the cavalry battalion, commanded tens of thousands of cavalry and launched a surprise attack directly towards the frontal position of the Dongying army!
Kill!
10,000 elite horsemen pressed towards the Dongying army like a raging wind and waves, and the momentum soared to the sky!
Tokugawa Iemitsu was secretly frightened in the back, this cavalry was fierce enough, although most of the terrain here was mountainous, and the terrain was uneven, which was not conducive to the rapid assault of the Ming army's elite cavalry, but the cavalry let go of the speed, and it was still the most troublesome enemy of the Dongying army!
"Order, order the infantry of the Ogura Domain and the Chikuzen Domain to rush forward and prepare for battle, and must contain the offensive of the Ming army's elite cavalry!"
Tokugawa Iemitsu commanded in a deep voice.
With an order, even if the two daimyos of the Ogura Domain and the Chikuzen Domain were unwilling to fight, there was no way to do it now, and it was difficult to do it......
The two feudal lords brought out all the 20,000 elite infantry under their command in one go, blocking the Ming cavalry, and the two sides launched a fierce battle on the front of the battlefield!
However, 20,000 elite infantry wanted to defeat the elite cavalry of 10,000 Tianxiong Army, and Tokugawa Iemitsu and others were too shrewd in their calculations.
Groups of elite cavalry continued to launch assaults towards the Dongying army, like a sharp sword, constantly piercing into the hinterland of the Dongying army, obviously, relying on such two elite infantry alone, it is absolutely impossible to stop the cavalry's assault, after all, this is the trump card combat power in the hands of Xia Wanchun and Tan Guilin.
Pieces of cold light flickered, and one by one the soldiers of Dongying fell in a pool of blood screaming, and the infantry of the two domains continued to retreat!
Tokugawa Iemitsu glared at the two daimyo fiercely, however, this time the two daimyo are no longer obedient, do you mean that we will continue to send troops? Jokes, we are increasing our troops and even the old bottom has been put in, and it may not be the opponent of other cavalry, even if it can defeat the elite cavalry, there are at least 20,000 elite infantry behind them, which are all top-level combat power equipped with flintlock muskets, we are not enough to stuff people's teeth, you old man or choose another talent.
Seeing that the two Ming generals twisted their heads in other directions, Tokugawa Iemitsu was depressed for a while, and wiped it, these people have been scared by the Ming army......
"Fertile Domain, it's your turn to make a move!"
Tokugawa Iemitsu's eyes fell on the face of Ito Yuheng, the head of the Fertile Domain, and Ito Yuheng's face was slightly spicy, and shouted: "Order, 10,000 elite infantry of the Fertile Domain will attack and help in the battle!" ”
Another 10,000 elite infantry pressed up, and 30,000 infantry finally suppressed the speed of the cavalry assault, but the elite cavalry of the Ming army still rushed left and right, constantly exerting pressure on the Dongying army, and the two sides were deadlocked at the front of the position.
Xia Wanchun and Tan Guilin are in control, Tokugawa Iemitsu is secretly frightened, 10,000 elite cavalry is so difficult to deal with, but there are still more than 20,000 troops in the back, all of them are the elite of the Ming army, even if they can defeat the Ming army this time, they will be greatly injured, simply, the three largest forces on Kyushu Island are now in their own calculations, but there is no worries.
"Satsuma Domain, now the cavalry of the Ming army is too fierce, and the combat power of Satsuma Domain is the best in Dongying, this time it's up to you!"
Tokugawa Iemitsu looked at Shimazu Mitsuri and said lightly.
Shimazu Mitsuri was not polite, arched his hand towards Tokugawa Iemitsu, slapped his war horse, ran towards the flank, and shouted sharply: "All the forces of the Satsuma Domain, prepare to attack, kill!" ”
Tokugawa Iemitsu saw that Shimazu Mitsuri gave the order to attack, and his heart was finally steady, with the help of 10,000 elites of the Satsuma Domain, the 10,000 elite cavalry in front of him would be defeated, 40,000 against 10,000, and the elite force of the Satsuma Domain, this gap is too big, if this can't defeat the elite cavalry of the Ming army, then he can only consider himself unlucky.
"Kill!"
The 10,000 Satsuma clan army suddenly attacked, but this time the attack was not directed at the Ming army, but from the flank, it launched an attack straight towards the Chinese army of the Dongying army!
Defection in battle, sword to blood!
