0422 Greeting the King
After the meeting, the departments did not take action immediately, but first formulated a complete plan according to their actual situation, and then began to implement it steadily.
The Privy Council was the first to take action, first sending a brigade to Unu Island, and then sending sailors to cut off Kyushu Island from other islands.
After all this was done, troops were sent to officially land on the island.
This time the mission was grabbed by Lin Xingzhu's brigade, and he was high-spirited.
Finally got the battle, although it was just bullying and bullying the Japanese slaves, but it was also a battle.
"Tell the brothers that the opportunity for meritorious service is right in front of us, and no one can hold back. We will not only fight this battle, but also fight beautifully. ”
"Yes."
This time, he was going to smash Huanglong and raid and take the royal city of a small country. On the way, I came across a village where many Japanese slaves were working in the fields.
His lieutenant Mao Zhishan said: "Brigade commander, do you want to kill all these people to prevent leakage of information?" ”
Lin Xingzhu said: "No, go at full speed and destroy their capital in one fell swoop before the Japanese nu people react, and the rest of the people will not be able to survive." ”
However, those Japanese slave people seemed to want to oppose him, and when they saw Tang Jun, they shouted and threw down their farm tools and turned to run, shouting and shouting as they ran:
"The Tang people called, the Tang people called, the Tang people called......"
Although he shouted in the Japanese slave language, Lin Xingzhu couldn't understand it, but he was not stupid, and he could guess what was going on, and his face suddenly darkened.
"Huh...... I wanted to spare their lives, but since I wanted to die...... Mao Zhishan, take a company of people to destroy this village, and solve it quickly. ”
Mao Zhishan said excitedly: "Yes...... Suhan, bring your people with me. ”
The company commander named Su Han was even more excited and shouted, "Brothers, it's open, it's open, come with me." ”
A company of soldiers broke away from the group and pursued in the direction of the village under the envious gaze of the others.
I didn't know that as soon as I was halfway there, I saw two or three hundred Japanese slaves, men, women, and children, rushing towards them with farm tools and sticks.
This scene surprised Mao Zhishan: "Don't want the Japanese slaves to be so fierce? ”
Su Han didn't have so much emotion, and said disdainfully: "It's just looking for death, and the brothers are arrayed to meet the enemy." ”
The soldiers automatically divided into three rows and raised their muskets in their hands. However, the speed of the queue was a little slow, obviously because of the lack of time for training and some lack of skill.
Su Han continued to shout: "Brothers, don't worry, listen to my command, put it in and fight again, the hit rate is higher." ”
300 meters...... 200 meters...... 100 meters......
When Su Han was about to give the order to shoot, the Japanese slaves stopped, and then knelt on the ground.
What is this for? Kowtow to each other before fighting? Could it be that this is the emerging ritual of the Japanese slave kingdom? That's too polite, isn't it?
However, everyone was not stupid, and they quickly reacted that these people were not here to fight, but to surrender.
Fortunately, there is a person in this village who understands Tang Chinese, and although he stumbles, he can barely express the meaning clearly.
……
Lin Xingzhu looked at the Japanese slaves kneeling on the ground in the distance, and said in disbelief: "You said they came to greet the king?" ”
Mao Zhishan cried and laughed: "Yes, they said that they had long been fed up with the oppression of the lord, and they were looking forward to Wang Shi coming to rescue them." ”
Lin Xingzhu said: "Take farm tools and wooden sticks to greet Wang Shi? ”
Mao Zhishan said: "They said that they want to join the king to crusade against the lord together......"
Lin Xingzhu: "......"
Mao Zhishan asked, "Brigade Commander, what should you do about this matter?" ”
Lin Xingzhu said angrily: "What should I do?" We are marching and fighting, a very serious matter, how can we lead a group of rabble. Disperse them all and continue the march. ”
The army marched again, but they soon found that the people were following from a distance, and they had been driven out several times without success.
wanted to kill them, but those people were too deferential, and when they saw Tang Jun coming, they knelt down and kowtowed, but they couldn't do it, so they could only let them follow in the end.
Therefore, these generals of the Tang Army were promoted too quickly, and there were flaws in many places, such as not being ruthless enough.
Of course, whether this is a disadvantage or not is debatable.
But Lin Xingzhu didn't know that this was just the beginning, and what happened later simply subverted his perception of the world.
More and more slaves followed, and soon reached nearly 2,000 people.
encountered a small city on the way, Lin Xingzhu had no intention of attacking, his goal this time was to smash Huanglong.
But he didn't have to do it, the soldiers and civilians in the city tied up the officials and generals, and took the initiative to open the city gate and surrender.
When these people learned that the people behind them were all helping to fight the lord, the men, women, and children of the whole city also joined in, and the number of people exceeded five thousand at once.
Now Lin Xingzhu can't think about it.
Find a few stewards and tell them that if they really want to follow, they will leave the old and young sick in the city, and send the young and strong to follow.
The Unons were very excited to get permission, and obediently left most of them behind, and only sent 700 young men to follow the army out.
Before leaving, Lin Xingzhu raided the homes of the city lord, generals and others, and found a large amount of grain and distributed it to the Japanese slave people.
Next, it can be said that he looked at the scenery all the way, and hit the capital without a single soldier.
Moreover, more than 6,000 Japanese slaves were recruited along the way.
The lord of this small country is quite tough and ready to defend the city. And his dominance over the national capital should be relatively strong, and he was not tied up and surrendered by his subordinates.
Lin Xingzhu didn't care if he surrendered or not, everything was a paper tiger in front of the cannon.
Just as he was about to ask someone to pull the cannon up, the Japanese slave who had been following behind took the initiative to stand up.
"General, please give us the glory of the siege."
Looking at the broken knife in the hand of the representative of the Japanese slave in front of him, Lin Xingzhu said in a strange tone: "You say, you want to attack the city?" ”
The man said, "Yes, this is the common request of our six thousand one hundred and fifty-eight people, please grant it to the general." ”
Lin Xingzhu said: "Oh? So what do you want? ”
The man said: "The lowly people don't dare to ask for anything, if the general thinks we are useful, please give our family the status of the Tang people, please." ”
Lin Xingzhu was surprised at first, then understood, and said solemnly: "Okay, I'll give you a chance, if your performance can satisfy me, I can make the decision to make you a Tang person." ”
The man trembled with excitement and said, "General Xie, please take a look...... In the next retirement. ”
Lin Xingzhu suddenly stopped him and asked, "What's your name?" ”
The man stopped and said, "I don't have a name, others call me Tian Yisan, because I admire the Tang Dynasty, I named myself Tang Tian." ”
Speaking of this, he knelt down again and said: "Take the name of Tang without permission, please forgive the general." ”
Lin Xingzhu nodded and said, "If your performance in this battle can satisfy me, then I will allow you to use the name Tang Tian." ”
