Chapter 1260: Beppu Bay Defeat

Matsudaira Nobutsuna was really panicked, when he combined with Zheng Cai's fleet, the two fleets fought against the Ming fleet, and one fleet was just barely able to withstand the attack of the Ming fleet, and now only he was left, Zheng Cai didn't know where to go, wouldn't it be the opponent of the Ming fleet, the most important thing is that the Dongying fleet must not afford to lose, and now the battle on Kyushu Island is undecided, once it fails, it still needs its own fleet to respond!

"Retreat, the army immediately retreated to the east, send a letter to the general, the Ming fleet came to help, the Dongying fleet was invincible, and it was impossible to support the big battle, please prepare to withdraw the army!"

Matsudaira Nobutsuna shouted urgently.

The Dongying fleet didn't dare to stay at all, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great, and Qi was still in a narrow bay, if it was entangled, it was not up to them to escape if they wanted to escape, it depended on whether the Ming fleet gave them a chance to retreat!

Matsudaira Nobutsuna reacted quickly, turned around and ran, to Matsudaira Nobutsuna's surprise, the Ming fleet had no intention of pursuing at all, but instead discharged the main battleships in Beppu Bay, and all the side guns were exposed, and launched a rapid artillery bombardment towards the battlefield in Beppu Bay, the target, the position of the shogunate army!

The artillery fire of the Dongying fleet is already dense enough, and now it is the turn of the Ming fleet to shoot, which is even denser than the Dongying fleet! One shell after another hit the battlefield, dozens of capital warships, more than 500 guns were used at one time! Hundreds of shells flew through the air and smashed straight down on the heads of the shogunate army.

Before the shogunate army could react, a single shell exploded on the position......

Boom Boom Boom ......

In the blink of an eye, the shogunate position was already overturned, Tokugawa Iemitsu had just received the news from Matsudaira Nobutsuna, the cannonball arrived, and a cannonball exploded next to Tokugawa Iemitsu, a huge wave of air, and Tokugawa Iemitsu was blown out, if it wasn't for the guards around him to block Tokugawa Iemitsu's body, I was afraid that Tokugawa Iemitsu had become a sieve.

Even so, Tokugawa Iemitsu has already been smashed, his hat has flew, his katana has flew, and even his cheekbones have been broken!

"Phew......"

Tokugawa Iemitsu got up with difficulty, spitting out the dirt in his mouth, just now the fall happened to rest on a stone, and even the front teeth were knocked off, how miserable it was.

"General, General!"

Ito Yuhiro and a few others quickly ran over and supported Tokugawa Iemitsu.

"General, the artillery of this Ming army is too fierce to resist at all......"

"Withdraw troops, withdraw troops! Immediately withdraw your troops and retreat in the direction of Mt. Vision, quick! ”

Tokugawa Iemitsu was so heartbroken that he never thought that the Ming army's fleet would be so powerful, even stronger than he imagined!

"Retreat, retreat!"

The generals under his command began to command the army to retreat urgently in the northeast direction!

However, at this time, it is impossible to easily shake off the pursuit of the Ming army.

Not only did the elite cavalry of the Ming army chase and kill everywhere, but the elite of the Tianxiong army behind them has also pounced, and the Dongying army of more than 100,000 people has been beaten and scattered, and the generals at all levels of Dongying have been unable to restrain the scattered army at all, and the army is defeated like a mountain!

Tokugawa Iemitsu has already received news from Matsudaira Nobutsuna, knowing that Matsudaira Nobutsuna has taken the first step and ran to the vicinity of Mt. Amiri to meet the army, as long as the army withdraws to Mount Foresight, the army can go to Honshu Island or Shikoku Island by boat, and organize the army to fight a decisive battle with the Ming army again, this time it is definitely not that he can't defeat the Ming army, but because he was stabbed in the back by these bastards of the Satsuma Domain, which made the positional defense collapse directly, and the whole army fought again, and the Dongying army was not without a chance to turn the tables.

However, it is clear that Tokugawa Iemitsu is too optimistic and overestimates his own strength.

Just as Matsudaira Nobutsuna was launching an artillery attack on the Ming army, a large army had already arrived at Shirakiwan on a troop transport, which was only a few dozen miles away from Yuanjian Mountain, and it was only a matter of one or two hours to rush with all his might.

The garrison of Baipesta Bay saw that the fleet was waving the flag of the Satsuma Domain, and thought it was their own people, and they did not have the slightest defense, so they let the fleet easily approach the dock, and the troop carriers docked on the dock, and the Satsuma Domain army landed first, and the Satsuma Bay garrison thought that these Satsuma Domain troops were here to aid the Dongying army, but was the general of the Satsuma Domain Naval Division stupid? If you want to rush to the aid of the Toei army, the fleet should sail directly to Beppu Bay, which is still nearly a hundred miles away from Beppu Bay, and it will take nearly a day to rush from here to Beppu Bay......

When the garrison of Baikiwan was at a loss, the Satsuma Domain army suddenly attacked these garrisons, and the garrison of Baikiwan was only more than 300 people, and the Satsuma Domain army had nearly 10,000 people, and in an instant, the Satsuma Domain garrison had been submerged in the army of the Satsuma Domain, and was swallowed by the Satsuma Domain.

After taking Baizhu Bay, more than 10,000 Ming troops and cavalry landed quickly, and then advanced at full speed in the direction of Beifu Bay!

This is to end the back road of the Dongying army......

Matsudaira Nobutsuna took the first step, and soon the fleet reached the Tomi Mountain sea, but as soon as he arrived here, a fleet rushed over in the distance.

Matsudaira Nobutsuna was secretly frightened, could it be that the fleet in Beppu Bay was not the main force of the Daming fleet? Oh my God, how many warships are there in this Ming Dynasty? Although the size of the fleet in front of him is not very large, the combat power is already considerable......

Well?

No, this, this is the Satsuma Domain?

Matsudaira Nobutsuna was secretly vigilant in his heart, the current Satsuma Domain army has rebelled, who knows if the Satsuma Domain Navy Division has rebelled, if it is suddenly bitten by the Satsuma Domain Water Division, it will be unlucky!

"Someone, wave the flag, just say that the Dongying fleet is cruising here, and order the Satsuma Domain Naval Division to retreat immediately!"

Matsudaira Nobutsuna shouted.

In any case, let's test the reaction of the opposing fleet.

Soon, the signal from the opposite side was transmitted.

"My lord, the fleet of the Satsuma Domain on the other side said that Shimazu Kuri, the second lord of the Satsuma Domain, suddenly surrendered to the Ming Dynasty and helped the Ming army to attack Kagoshima Castle, and now it has been defeated by the Shimazu Mitsuri Lord, but because Shimazu Kuri has ordered the Shimazu Mitsuri Division, which supports the shogunate, to directly rebel on the front line, so the Satsuma Domain Navy Division was ordered by the Lord of the Satsuma Domain to go to Beppu Bay to support the general and collect the military power of Shimazu Mitsui!"

The signal soldier on the watchtower said to Matsudaira Nobutsuna.

Matsudaira Nobutsuna is skeptical, really? If Shimazu Kulie rebelled, then Shimazu Mitsuhisa should have passed the news to the general a long time ago, how could it be delayed until this time, knowing that Shimazu Mitsuri rebelled against the water and inflicted heavy losses on the shogunate army, and he didn't get any news from Shimazu Mitsuhisa? What the hell, is Mitsuhisa Shimazu stupid?
