638 [Misplacement is very important]

The two wild samurai fought, and it developed to the point where a duel was a matter of life and death.

Li Dingguo came over to inquire, but there was a noble samurai of the Matsuura family who died in battle, and he exploded a set of very gorgeous high-end equipment armor one by one.

The Datong army was not allowed to embezzle the spoils of war, and all of them were handed over and distributed uniformly. Of course, these two wild warriors did not dare to take it privately, but they both said that they were noble warriors who had obtained it themselves, and they were fighting for merit there and wanted to ask for armor.

Li Dingguo glanced at the corpse of the noble warrior, and instantly lost interest.

The main body of the stomach is two iron plates, which are attached to the front chest and back respectively, and then connected with cowhide and iron sheets, and also decorated with bamboo pieces and painted patterns. The lower skirt of the armor stomach is also made of leather inlaid with iron sheets. However, the helmet is very bluffing, with a type of iron riveted in front of the forehead, which resembles a bull's horn rising high.

I found the body of another noble samurai, and I don't know who killed it, and then let the two wild samurai touch the corpse, and if they wanted to equip it, they took it down themselves.

The legendary bamboo armor and wooden armor did not appear on the battlefield.

The only equipment of those peasants was a bamboo gun, and the rest of the armor was not worn.

Ordinary infantry, on the other hand, is equipped with "half-body plate armor", note that it is in quotation marks. In fact, it resembles a cuirass made of wrought iron sheets, and is strung with leather as a vest to wear on the body. As for the lower body, it is a armor skirt made of leather inlaid iron sheets. This thing should be called "Ashigaru Cave Pill".

The wrought iron sheet of the Ashigaru Copper Pill is very thin, and it can only defend against slashing, and there are long-range defensive bows and arrows, which cannot be carried by fire guns and close-range bows and arrows.

The Datong army is receiving prisoners and letting them clean up the battlefield by the way.

In a big battle of more than 20,000 people, the real casualties were actually only more than dry, and it was really the two feudal coalition forces that were defeated too quickly. Three or four thousand people fled without a trace, and the rest were all taken prisoner, waiting for the Datong army to fall.

"Division commander, the enemy commander wants to see you."

Bring all the enemy generals here. ”

Shimazu Tsunada, who has already been seppuku on the battlefield, has not died until this moment. This thing didn't find the wrong person, he cut it with a knife, and he fainted with convulsions in pain, and it didn't take long for him to wake up again.

Li Dingguo saw that his intestines were leaking out, and there was a smell of when he got closer, so he immediately gave up and said: "Whoever goes to make up for it will also suffer if he drags it." “

"General, let's make a mistake in the next place!"

The wild warriors knelt down one after another to ask for their lives, as if they felt that it was very face-saving to give the nobles a mistake.

Li Dingguo pointed to the ghost head forty-eight: "You go." ”

"General Xie!" The forty-eighth big joy of the ghost head looked at Shiro Miyazaki triumphantly.

Shiro Miyazaki was like an abandoned little daughter-in-law, looking at Li Dingguo aggrievedly, sad that the general didn't love him anymore.

Ghost Forty-Eight pulled out his katana and walked over to Shimazu Tsunahisa.

Shimazu Tsunahisa, who was already dying of pain, struggled to get up, barely knelt on the ground, held the short blade inserted in his stomach, and his voice trembled and grateful: "Thank you, come on!" ”

Brush!

The knife light rises, the head falls, and the thing is finally dead.

Matsuura Shigenobu glanced at his head and said to Li Dingguo: "Respected General Tang, I am convinced. If you can release the warriors of the Matsuura family, the Matsuura family is willing to compensate for the losses of the Tang Kingdom. However, if the money is not enough for the time being, please allow me to compensate a part of it every year. ”

"And hand over the pirate Li Guozhu, or kill him, and promise not to plunder China and North Korea in the future! In addition, let Zheng Fuma's brother return to China. Li Dingguo added.

Matsuura Shigenobu said: "The Matsuura family can agree to these conditions, but please leave Tagawa Jiro." Jiro Tagawa is the brother-in-law of Xia, and he died in Xia, and his youngest son is too young and needs his brother-in-law to serve as an assistant to the retainer. Of course, if Jiro Tagawa misses his parents, he can visit his relatives in China at any time. “

Li Dingguo smiled: "You have a good calculation." But this is a matter for the horse family, and I can't be the master, whether to go or to keep watch for himself. “

"That's enough," said Matsuura Shigenobu, "how much silver taels do I have to pay?" ”

Li Dingguo said: "The compensation for the military expenditure is 250,000 taels of silver, as for the amount of compensation for the looted merchants, your Songpu family will negotiate with those merchants themselves." “

Matsuura Shigenobu sighed: "Thank you for your accommodating. ”

250,000 taels of silver, even if they tighten their belts to get by, it will take at least five years for the Matsuura family to pay it off. This is also because Matsuura Shigenobu has worked hard to make the country prosperous, and has not owed too many foreign debts, and the industry, agriculture and commerce in the area under his jurisdiction are flourishing.

As for the Shimazu family, they have a lot of foreign debts and can only repay them by digging gold mines.

Matsuura Shigenobu knelt down and kowtowed to Li Dingguo: "Your Excellency has promised, and I hope you will not break your promise,"

Li Dingguo said: "The eldest husband says the same. ”

So the seppuku ceremony began again, Matsuura Shigenobu stabbed his stomach with a knife, and scratched himself on the spot, and his brother Matsuura Nobutada was the wrong person,

With a slash, the brother's pain ended.

Li Dingguo took the captured samurai, ashigaru, and peasants and headed for Tsurumaru Castle.

In the evening of the same day, food was prepared for them, and they were treated equally.

After filling their stomachs, these captives were grateful to Li Dingguo. They were defeated in frontal combat, and their fear of the Datong army quickly turned into obedience. Now that he has not been abused, he can still eat enough, and his obedience immediately turns into obedience.

In a word, owe to clean up!

Just be nice to them, they just think you are a bully. If you beat them up, and then give them some benefits, then you will be their idol.

The captured aristocratic warrior even gave Li Dingguo a honorific title: Wushuang General of the Tang Kingdom.

The next day, Li Dingguo took more than 10,000 prisoners and came to the outside of Tsurumaru Castle again.

Shiro Miyazaki was ordered to call the city, carrying the head of Shimazu Tsunahisa, and came to the city and shouted: "The 100,000 combined forces of Shimazu and Matsuura were defeated by General Li of the Tang State with 5,000 men. There are less than 2,000 defenders left in the city, are you begging for death? ”

Shimazu Mitsuhisa looked at the head of his eldest son, and his face suddenly turned like ashes.

The reinforcements he was waiting for finally came, but as prisoners, he helped the Datong army to attack the city.

But Shimazu Mitsuhisa really doesn't want to die, no matter whether Li Dingguo kills him or not, he must commit suicide. Shimazu Mitsuhisa hasn't lived enough, his vacation villa in Kirishima hasn't finished the foundation yet, and there are those beautiful concubines...... It can be dragged on for a day.

This thing was afraid of death, so he didn't dare to surrender, and even ordered the soldiers to defend the city, and then seize the time to enjoy it.

The wine and food should be the best, let the young and beautiful concubines accompany them, enjoy the singing and dancing while feasting and drinking, and toss until they fall asleep at night.

The soldiers defending the city were so angry that although it was spring at this time, the temperature was still very low. They are guarding the city in the cold wind, but the governor is in the city, what the hell is this?

After only enjoying the third night, a group of samurai opened the gates to meet the Daido army, and then rushed into Shimazu Mitsuhisa's mansion.

Mitsuhisa Shimazu, died on the belly of the concubine.

This person has such a venting pleasure, he has nothing to rely on. The eldest son has been killed, and the other sons will definitely not be able to inherit it, and it must be the brothers who have come to take the throne.

His own father, Shimazu Tadashi, only one month into the throne, killed Ijiin Tadado (the second person in the Shimazu family). And Ijiin Tadato was strongly supported by Toyotomi Hideyoshi. To use an analogy, I was just appointed by the chairman as the general manager of the branch, and the first thing I did when I took office was to kill the deputy manager of the branch.

And this deputy manager is also the chairman's confidant.

The son of Tadado Ijiin, who rebelled in order to avenge his father, was mediated by Tokugawa Ieyasu to make peace. Three years have passed, Shimazu Tadashi killed his son again, completely destroyed the Ijiin family, and later made his own son the lord of Ijiin.

And Shimazu Mitsuhisa himself, after taking the throne, also killed his two brothers-in-law.

This family is chaotic enough, beware of each other.

That's why Tsurumaru Castle was besieged, and the Shimazu clan didn't move, waiting for their own governors to be killed.

After occupying Tsurumaru Castle for a few days, Li Dingguo kept his promise and released all the prisoners of the two feudal clans. When these captives left, they were already grateful to Li Dingguo, as if they had received a great favor.

But the nobles of the Shimazu family did not leave.

Shimazu Hisakuni, or Ijiin Hisakuni, came to visit at night with goods, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Thank you, General, for getting rid of this thief for my Shimazu family!" “

Li Dingguo was quite embarrassed in his heart, and the killed Shimazu Mitsuhisa was Shimazu Hisashi's second brother.

The elder brother was killed, and the younger brother came to thank the enemy?

Li Dingguo said: "Take the things back." ”

Shimazu Hisakuni said: "That evil thief is unscrupulous, and he is good at killing his relatives, and he has long been outraged. The general is responsible for eliminating harm to my Shimazu family, and I should be grateful below, these gifts are just to express my gratitude below, please be sure to accept them! “

Li Dingguo said: "I can accept the gift, but which of you will succeed the family governor, this is your Shimazu family's own business." “

Shimazu Hisakuni said: "If you inherit the position of family governor, you can compensate Tang Bing with an additional 50,000 taels of silver." In addition, give the general another 10,000 taels privately! “

After an ambiguous statement, he finally sent the goods away.

Li Dingguo felt a little tricky, and he didn't dare to accept the gift, so he said to the translator: "You can be a witness, all these goods are sealed and confiscated, and I don't take a penny." ”

Sure enough, Shimazu Hisakuni was just the beginning, and other Shimazu nobles came to visit one after another.

Even Beixiang Jiuzhi and Beixiang Weng Jiu, with hundreds of soldiers, hurried from the eastern fiefdom, saying that they wanted to help Li Dingguo attack the city, but unfortunately the troops were too slow and came late.

Kitago Hisano, that is, Shimazu Hisano, that is, the fourth brother of the dead governor, his fief is of course in Kitago Castle. Beixiang Onghisa is the brother-in-law of the deceased governor.

The price offered by Kitago Jiuzhi was also very high, and Li Dingguo asked the Shimazu family to compensate 400,000 taels, and this goods took the initiative to raise the compensation to 500,000 taels. The only request was for his Beixiang troops to take over Tsurumaru City, and there was no need to bother Li Dingguo for anything else.

What's even more outrageous is that Shimazu Tadashi actually came by boat to visit. This is the son-in-law of the Shimazu family, because the fief is in Tanegashima, it is also called Tanegashima Tadashiki.

Regardless of bloodline or strength, it is not Tanegashima's son-in-law's turn to take the throne, this guy is purely here to be funny.

received a lot of gifts, Li Dingguo sealed them all and confiscated them, and then promised Kitago Hisashi.

The reason is simple, Kitago Hisunao is the fourth eldest of the Shimazu family.

The eldest child, the second child, and the third child are all dead, and the seniority should also be this one, which can save a lot of trouble.

Li Dingguo handed over Tsurumaru Castle to Kitago Jiuzhi to garrison, as for whether this goods can be defended, and how to persuade the shogunate to confirm his identity, then he really can't control it Anyway, the purpose of sending troops has been achieved, the Shimazu clan will compensate 500,000 taels of silver, and the Matsuura clan will compensate 250,000 taels of silver. The Shimazu clan recognized China's possession of the Ryukyus and surrendered Xiang Xiangxian and other Ryukyu royal families, promising not to plunder Chinese merchant ships again. The Matsuura clan handed over Li Guozhu and other pirates, promised not to plunder China and Korea again, and made Zheng Chenggong's younger brother a retainer.

Moreover, the "Battle of Kagoshima" was also spread throughout Japan.

According to legend, the Satsuma and Hirado feudal armies had 50,000 men, and the Daido army had 10,000 men. The two sides fought in the dark, each issued a mysterious tactic, and the Datong army finally sacrificed the "big barrel killing array".

The big barrel is artillery, according to legend, the Datong army dispatched 200 artillery, the cannonballs covered the sky and the sun and blocked the sun, and finally defeated the alliance of the two feudatories.
