Chapter 174: Three-way attack, invincible.

"Yaga, these greedy Ming people are hungry ghosts! Didn't they all say that they were all modest and generous, how did they become so greedy? ”

In a large hall in the seat of the southern government of the small Ugua country.

Fujiwara Tadahei, who served as the Minister of Imperial Affairs, listened to Fujiwara Shisuke's report, and his face was iron-blue.

In the end, he angrily smashed all the items on the table to the ground.

After a few heavy breaths, Fujiwara Tadahi roared angrily.

"These damn bastards, if they want to die, then fulfill them, order the samurai to be summoned, and kill them all! Let them understand that our Great Wa Kingdom is not easy to mess with. ”

"Hey!"

The people kneeling in the hall nodded neatly.

Fujiwara Miyori, who is the right minister, looked at the angry Fujiwara Tadahi and put forward the suggestion in his heart.

"Your Excellency, are we going to unite with those guys in the north!"

Fujiwara Tadahei glanced at him, and then at Fujiwara Shiyin.

"What the guys in the North say!"

Fujiwara Shiyin bowed his head slightly and replied: "Ashikaga Yoshinori said that if it is necessary to unite against the enemy, the command must be handed over to them. Otherwise they would rather fight the enemy alone than unite with us. ”

"Yaga!"

Fujiwara Tadahei is another national scolding.

But he also had to admit that in terms of fighting, the Ashikaga family was indeed a little stronger than their side.

Although I am a little reluctant in my heart, the enemy is right in front of me, and if the Ashikaga family is rejected, then they will have to face the invading enemy alone.

After hesitating for a moment in his heart, Fujiwara Tadahei said with a cold face.

"Tell those bastards in the north that we can agree that they are in charge, but we must have the right to assist, or we'd rather fight alone!"

"Hey!"

Fujiwara Shiyin nodded in response, and then got up to find the messenger of the Ashikaga family.

Kyoto, where the northern Ashikaga family is located.

Ashikaga Yoshitomo, who received a reply from the south, briefly discussed with his subordinates, and then came to an elegantly decorated courtyard in the backyard with a long chant.

"Mr. Du is here!"

The standard Aki official dialect came out of Ashikaga Yoshimochi's mouth.

"It's Ashikaga Shogun, please come in!"

A young man's voice rang out from the room.

Ashikaga Yoshinori straightened his clothes, reached out and opened the door and walked in.

In the room, a young scholar was half-lying on the tatami mat, holding a little gourd girl in his arms, listening to a few dancing girls singing and dancing.

Ashikaga Yoshinori took off his clogs and stepped forward, came to the table and knelt down.

He took the tea poured by a dancing girl and listened to the dancing and singing with the young man.

About half an hour passed, and the dancing girl bowed deeply and announced the end of the performance.

"Bang Bang!"

The young scholar, who was holding a little widow in his arms, applauded with satisfaction.

After the Maihime retreated, Ashikaga Yoshinori poured a cup of tea for the young man who had started.

"How is your life lately, and is it going well?"

The young scholar smiled slightly, took a sip of the teacup, shook his head, and said.

"I can't miss it!"

"Hahaha..."

"Sir, do you know that a group of strongmen have come from Izumo, and the accent is from the Ming side."

The young man nodded.

"I know, and I know who they are."

"In that case, I don't know if Mr. can tell me who they are and what they have to do with the Ming Dynasty."

The young man picked up a fruit and took a bite, glanced at Ashikaga Yoshinori and did not speak.

Ashikaga Yoshinori naturally understood what the other party meant, and this was intended to be a benefit.

The year before last, this scholar came to Kyoto with 10 people.

I listened to the report of the envoy sent to the Ming Dynasty by my subordinates, saying that it was a painter from the Ming Dynasty.

Ashikaga Yoshimoto, who is also very fond of Ming Dynasty culture, talked with the visitors.

During the conversation, these people did not mention a word about the affairs of the Ming Dynasty, only saying that they and others were painters who came to copy the scenery of the Wa Kingdom.

Ashikaga Yoshinori naturally wouldn't believe the nonsense of these people, but he didn't dare to torture him.

The Ming Dynasty is not something that a small country can afford to offend.

Although there is a sea sandwiched between the two sides, North Korea is too close to the Ugua country.

Moreover, the Korean state is still a loyal lackey of the Ming Dynasty, if the Ming Dynasty wants to attack the small Japanese gourd country through Korea.

Those sticks will definitely raise their hands and feet in favor, and even personally row a boat to send the Ming Dynasty lord to attack the country of Ugua.

What is the reason, Ashikaga Yoshinori knows very well in his heart.

Over the years, the samurai who had been defeated by the Wa Kingdom left the land and became the Wako who plundered at sea.

Even a country as powerful as the Ming Dynasty has Japanese robbers who dare to rob it, let alone a small stick country.

Therefore, the sticks who have suffered enough from the nest can't wait for the little gourd country to disappear from this world.

In order to find out the meaning of these painters, Ashikaga Yoshimochi spent a lot of money to buy a scholar surnamed Du led by him.

This surnamed Du refused harshly at first, but later under the offensive of the money beauty, he completely fell.

Not only did he personally kill the other 9 companions, but he also explained some of the reasons why they came to the Wa Kingdom.

It's just that this guy is very greedy, and he only takes a little information in exchange for benefits at a time.

The other party relied on Ashikaga Yoshitomo to dare not force him to attack, so he had no fear.

Refilled the teacup with water for the other party's drinking, Ashikaga Yoshinori said with a smile: "What Mr. wants, as long as I have it, I will definitely satisfy Mr." ”

The corner of the young man's mouth showed a victorious smile, and he looked at Ashikaga Yoshinori and whispered.

"When I went out the other day, I fell in love with a pair of sisters, but they are the daughters of your generals."

Ashikaga Yoshimo's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the other party for a long time before nodding with a smile.

"I'll arrange for them to come over tonight, but for the sake of their samurai daughters, I ask Sir not to hurt them."

Ashikaga Yoshinori knows that this person surnamed Du is a pervert.

The means of torturing women are tricks in and out.

Every day from this courtyard, a tortured and unadult-looking dancing girl can be carried out.

That's why Ashikaga Yoshinori said so.

The young man surnamed Du smiled lightly.

"Depending on my mood, as long as they serve me well, I won't be embarrassed for them."

After negotiating the terms, Ashikaga Yoshinori began to ask for the information he wanted.

But before that, he told him everything he knew.

was satisfied, and the young man did not hide it, and said calmly to Ashikaga Yoshimochi: "The king you are talking about should be His Royal Highness the Grand Sun of the Ming Dynasty, he once went to sea with Zheng He, and it is common to play the role of a pirate. ”

"And he himself is ruthless, if you don't get what he wants, your country will usher in a bloody storm."

"The legion under him should be the naval force of the Ming Dynasty, and the Shenji Battalion of the three major battalions of the Beijing Division, as for the rest, I don't know very well, it should be newly established after I left."

"Navy, Shenji Battalion!"

Ashikaga Yoshinori repeated the two names in his mouth.

Last year, Zhu Di's Northern Expedition, Ashikaga Yoshinori also heard about it recently.

He was also amazed by the fierce performance of the Shenji Battalion.

At the same time, he also keenly discovered that the Shenji Battalion could have such a powerful combat power, which was completely brought by the weapons in the hands of the soldiers, called flintlock pistols.

At that time, Ashikaga Yoshinori had an idea in his head.

The little gourd people are not tall, and their bodies are not as strong as the Ming soldiers.

When the two sides are at war, they are inherently on the weak side.

If the Japanese soldiers were equipped with such flintlock pistols, the gap in the middle would have disappeared by more than half.

If they were to make some improvements to make this flintlock pistol stronger, the Wa kingdom would be invincible, and even the Ming army would not be their match.

Thinking of the rich land and countless mineral resources of the Ming Dynasty, Ashikaga Yoshinori was envious in his heart.

If the Great Wagua Kingdom can have such a vast land and rich resources, then who else in the whole world is the opponent of the Great Wagua Country.

It is a great waste for the lazy and stupid Ming people to hold that piece of land, which should belong to the great Great Gouuagua Country.

Only the industrious people can have such fertile land and countless resources.

"Sir, know the drawings of flintlock pistols and artillery."

Thinking of flintlock pistols and artillery, Ashikaga Yoshitsu looked at Mr. Du with fiery eyes.

The young man surnamed Du tugged at the corners of his mouth when he heard this.

He's just a map-drawing intelligence officer, and though he's seen flintlock pistols and artillery, it's not something that can be studied by looking at the appearance.

But there is a good saying, if you have a bargain, you don't take advantage of it.

Anyway, these little dwarfs don't know the principle of weapons, so just draw one for them according to the model.

The young man surnamed Du took a sip of tea and said incomprehensibly: "I have participated in research, and some of the important structures were proposed by me, but unfortunately I offended Shangguan later and was sent out to draw drawings." ”

As he spoke, he showed a look of indignation.

Ashikaga Yoshimochi was ecstatic in his heart and prostrated directly to the ground.

"Please also ask Mr. to give me immortal things, and in the future, when I sweep away the Japanese country, my country will treat Mr. sincerely as a national teacher."

Although the young man surnamed Du had no expression on his face, he was ecstatic in his heart.

He was just a small scholar in Daming, but he didn't expect that he could become a national teacher in the country by paying a little information and even drawing some drawings.

Although the small Japanese melon country is not even 1/10 of the Ming Dynasty, it is also a country.

Being a national teacher of a country is much more comfortable than being a useless petty official in Daming.

Thinking of this, the young man pretended to be embarrassed, and finally after Ashikaga Yoshitoshi asked many times, he agreed with a helpless look.

Soon, Ashikaga Yoshinori excitedly left the small courtyard with three drawings and went to find a craftsman to experiment.

The young scholar looked at Ashikaga Yoshinori who had left, and shook his head with a chuckle.

He wasn't afraid that the other party wouldn't be able to experiment and come to him for trouble.

Excuses, he had already thought of them.

He had heard that the steel used for the flintlock pistols of the Shenji Battalion was specially provided by His Royal Highness Taisun.

That kind of steel is the top secret of the Ming Dynasty, and it is said that only a few people know about it.

If Ashikaga Yoshinori can't research firearms, he can use this excuse to excuse himself.

The quality of your own steel is not up to par, but it's not my drawings.

Ashikaga Yoshimori, who had received the information on the drawings, asked the craftsmen to study the drawings and called the envoys from the south.

Of course, he didn't want to share the information he had gotten with the other side, but he wanted to set a course of attack with the other side.

Knowing Zhu Zhangui's identity, Ashikaga Yoshiji did not choose to negotiate.

What about the grandson of Daming.

This is the territory of the Wa Kingdom, and we are fighting on our own soil, occupying the right time and place.

And we have more troops than you.

The time, place, and people are all on my side, why should I talk to you.

Even Ashikaga Yoshitochi still has a little ninety-nine in his heart.

If he defeats the grandson of the Ming Dynasty, he will capture Zhu Zhangui, the grandson, in his hands.

At that time, you can not only harvest a large amount of weapons and equipment, but also ask Daming for something.

The grandson of a country should be very valuable.

Soon the two forces reached a unified opinion.

In order to drive the invaders away as quickly as possible, the two sides gathered all the forces they could.

After more than 10 days of preparation, the two sides gathered more than 80,000 soldiers and horses, and nearly 1,000 large and small ships.

After discussions between the two sides, it was decided to attack the enemy camp from the sea.

All the soldiers and horses gathered at the port of Kyoto, and according to the calculations of the priest, July 1 was the best auspicious day.

Izumo, Tsukiyama Tomita Castle.

Zhu Zhangui looked at the map with a frown.

They have been in the country for nearly a month, and the 10 people sent out the year before last have not yet come to report.

Zhu Zhangui asked Nizi Jiujiu, and the other party said that he had never seen the so-called painter at all, and he had not even heard of it.

It can be seen that these artists may have had an accident.

At the beginning, Zhu Zhangui sent them over to understand the internal situation of the small Wagua Kingdom and the location of the distribution of various forces.

But now these people are missing.

Without the maps and intelligence guidance of these people, it would have a great impact on the Ming army.

If you don't know the distribution of the enemy's forces and the situation on the ground.

A rash march is easy to be ambushed by the enemy.

Once or twice, the Ming army can still withstand it with its own heritage.

But if there are too many times, it will be troublesome.

"King, it's confirmed!"

Just when Zhu Zhangui frowned and looked at the simple map in front of him, Hu Yu, the head of the personal guard, strode in.

Walking to Zhu Zhangui's side, Hu Yu said in a low voice.

"The northern and southern courts are in Kyoto Bay, and they have indeed assembled a large number of soldiers, horses, and ships."

Zhu Zhangui glanced at him.

"Can you tell how many people there are?"

Hu Yu shook his head slightly.

"The navy sent a ship to investigate, but in order not to be discovered by the enemy, they were far away, and they could only determine through telescopes that there were troops, horses and ships assembled there, but they couldn't see how many people and warships there were."

Zhu Zhangui knew that the location of the little Japanese gourd gathered soldiers and horses was the information that a down-and-out samurai of the Japanese Kingdom came to sell.

The other party claimed to have an enmity with the Ashikaga family, and was willing to exchange an intelligence for the opportunity to join Zhu Zhangui's forces.

Knowing that this information was about the location of the northern and southern imperial courts and the gathered soldiers and horses, Zhu Zhangui agreed to the other party's conditions.

arranged the other party in the mine and became a supervisor leader.

At the same time, a sea ship was sent to Kyoto Bay to investigate the situation.

On land, because of the language barrier and the size of the land, it is really difficult for Zhu Zhangui to send someone to mess around.

He didn't believe in the captives of the little gouas, so there was only one way to explore the sea.

"Notify the generals to have a meeting!"

After determining the location of the enemy's garrison, Zhu Zhangui pondered for a moment and ordered everyone to be called for a meeting.

Soon all the generals of the sea and land sides gathered.

Zhu Zhangui looked at all the generals and said, "Recently, I received a piece of information that the little gourds have formed an alliance with the North and South Koreas to prepare against us. ”

The generals below listened attentively one by one, without any disdain or contempt on their faces.

Zhu Zhangui warned them more than once.

The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, and no enemy can be taken lightly.

Even if it is a group of uncivilized natives, they will use unexpected ways of fighting.

Anyone who despises the enemy will pay a heavy price for his contempt.

Therefore, even though the generals did not look down on the little nest melon in their hearts, they still maintained a cautious and serious expression on their faces during the meeting.

"But it could also be a trick for the enemy."

Zhu Zhangui tapped on the simple map in front of everyone.

"If I were an enemy and I knew that my opponent's navy was strong, I would choose to gather a large number of ships, disguise myself as an attack from the sea, attract all the attention of the enemy, and then suddenly launch a surprise attack from the land route to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop."

Zhu Zhangui looked at all the generals with his command baton.

"We don't know how the Wa Kingdom was chosen, but we have to prepare for both."

"So I order!"

"Whoa!"

All the generals collectively held their chests up and raised their heads.

"Li Hu obeys the order!"

"The last general!"

With Zhu Zhangui's call, Li Hu strode to the hall and bowed.

"After the meeting, you take 2/3 of the navy, take the marines, and go to Jindu Bay to attack the enemy."

"Whether the enemy is a decoy, or really intends to attack from the sea, you tell me, with the strength in your hands, do you have the confidence to defeat them!"

Li Hu replied loudly with a serious expression.

"The sun, the moon, the mountains and rivers are here, the Ming Dynasty will never be invincible, this battle has me, and I will win!"

"Good!"

Zhu Zhangui shouted hello.

Then he looked at Jianghuai.

"Jianghuai obeys orders!"

"The last general!"

Jianghuai also strode forward.

Zhu Zhangui pointed to Izumo's northeast direction.

"After the navy departs, you take half of the soldiers and horses of the Shenji Battalion to attack in the northeast direction, and flank the navy left and right, and directly attack the enemy Kyoto."

Retracting the baton, Zhu Zhangui looked at Jiang Huai.

"We are not familiar with this battle, and we may face a sneak attack from the enemy at any time, so you have the courage to lead someone to break through."

Jiang Huai grinned.

"Back to the king, as long as my Shenji Battalion has its feet on the earth and the sky above its head, it is the Longtan Tiger's Den, and my Shenji Battalion will dare to break through."

Zhu Zhangui nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, I won't follow this battle, it's up to you to decide how to fight, this is your first time leading troops alone, but it's a good opportunity to hone."

"With this training, when I lead the large army to fight alone in the future, I will not be tied down because of my lack of experience."

When the generals below heard this, they all looked at Jiang Huai with envy.

His Royal Highness's meaning is nothing more than to say that when he ascends the throne in the future, Jiang Huai will have the opportunity to lead the army alone like Xu Da Lanyu.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Jiang Huai knelt on the ground excitedly and made a big salute.

Zhu Zhangui stretched out his hand to pull it up, and then looked at the other generals.

All the generals held their heads up, hoping that Zhu Zhangui would give them a chance to lead the troops alone.

The Shenji Battalion is divided into two halves, and Izumo Stone sees that these two places are not big, and the guard battalion in Zhu Zhangui's hands is enough to protect it.

Moreover, Li Hu and Jianghuai are both fighting in the northeast direction, but they have not sent people in the southwest direction.

The remaining half of the Shenji Battalion was not taken away by Jianghuai, and it must have been to fight in the southwest direction.

Zhu Zhangui glanced at the generals below, and finally stopped his gaze on a middle-aged man with an honest appearance.

"Shen An!"

The middle-aged man standing among the generals who was not very conspicuous was stunned for a moment and hurriedly stood up.

"The last general!"

Zhu Zhangui looked at Shen An and said, "You have been with me for many years like Li Hu, and I have always seen your contribution over the years." ”

"You have a stable personality and good ability, but you lack a chance."

"This time I decided to attack the southwest direction, and you will be responsible for leading the team."

The honest and honest Shen An, his eyes were red with excitement.

"The last general will live up to His Highness's trust and make every effort to take the southwest land."

Zhu Zhangui nodded with satisfaction, and looked at Zhang Xian, the deputy commander of the Shenji Battalion, who was a little lost on the side.

"Your position has been promoted too quickly, and some combat skills are not solid enough, this time you will follow your command to study hard, and there will be opportunities in the future."

Zhang Xian nodded hurriedly.

He knows his weaknesses.

He is not a problem with charging into battle, but he is still a little immature in terms of command.

The fact that he was able to climb to the post of deputy commander of the Shenji Battalion was completely the result of his shot in Qufu.

If it weren't for that shot, I guess I'd still be just a petty officer.

After arranging the battle plan, Zhu Zhangui watched as all the generals raised their hands and hit their chests.

"If you don't break the enemy's army, you swear not to turn back!"

All the generals shouted angrily.

"Kill!"
