Although the words shouted on both sides are different, they generally mean "kill".

Wei Ming was almost scared when he saw a group of warriors slashing towards him with a large knife that was more than one person long.

But he obviously underestimated the army that the Ming Dynasty had equipped him, and these were all veterans who had been tested on the battlefield.

Although they are now in the retreat mode of the rear team to the front team, they are still very quick to change the team after hearing the shouts of killing, raising their guns and shooting at the Japanese samurai who rushed over.

In the successive "bang" sounds, one by one the Japanese samurai fell to the ground.

Although they had done it heroically, they still couldn't match the difference in firepower between the two sides.

After a short period of panic, the soldiers on Wei Ming's side immediately formed a fire suppression, and hit the Japanese samurai who rushed in.

However, there are still 100,000 troops behind them, and even if they want to, there is no place to retreat.

As a last resort, they can only rush forward. But after rushing a few steps, he was shot by Daming's fire and fell in a pool of blood.

It wasn't until the soldiers behind realized what was happening that a small number of casualties were avoided, causing a mass stampede.

Wei Ming looked at the empty city gate cave and suddenly had an idea.

The enemy is so weak, why should I abandon the city and flee!

Wei Ming didn't know where he got the courage, so he picked up a katana on the ground and shouted at the soldiers behind him.

"Brothers, rush me!"

Although Wei Ming is a little superior, but fortunately, there are capable people in the garrison, Lan Liang stepped forward and grabbed Wei Ming's arm and persuaded in a low voice.

"Ming Gong, let's hurry up!"

"Withdraw?"

"Didn't we just win?"

"It's a win, but there are 100,000 people outside, and they can drown us with a mouthful of spit!"

Wei Ming was still a little unwilling.

"What if we defend the city?"

Lan Liang still shook his head firmly.

"It's useless!"

"We have 3,000 people, even if you let the brothers stay awake, we won't be able to hold such a big city!"

"Then let's go out of the city and fight?"

"No way!"

"The other side has cavalry, although the Japanese horses are relatively short, but the ants bite the elephant to death!"

Wei Ming lowered his head and thought about it, and felt that what Lan Liang said made some sense, so he sighed with infinite regret.

"Alas!"

"It's the first time this official has encountered this kind of battle that he has to retreat after winning it!"

Lan Liang didn't bother to debunk him when he heard this, he was obviously a civil official, he might have fought this battle in his life, right?

Once the retreat strategy is decided, the implementation level is much simpler.

The Ming Dynasty was not a white garrison in Japan, and over the years he had been recruiting people to build roads and build roads from Kyoto to Iwami Silver Mine.

After Yan Yi of the Iwami Silver Mine knocked away a few local guards, the road construction went more smoothly, and there was not even a single person who came out to gossip.

Moreover, there was no shortage of horses and carriages in the Ming garrison, and many military supplies were packed and taken away by them.

Yuan Daoyi outside the city saw that the Ming firepower was so fierce, and did not dare to continue to send people to attack, after learning that the Ming army was packing up his luggage, he did not take advantage of the fire to rob, but thoughtfully sent a lot of horses to assist the Ming army to retreat.

Thus, a very strange situation arises.

The Ming army packed their bags, and there were actually 50,000 troops outside the city, and the army that falsely claimed to be 100,000 waited quietly, waiting for the Ming to retreat before taking over the city.

Wei Ming originally thought that the retreat road would be extremely difficult, but when he sat in the carriage and chatted with Sanjo Shino to complete the retreat road, he realized that he had a high opinion of the source of morality.

They didn't even send a single pursuer!

Just sent a few scouts to watch their movements from afar.

This made Wei Ming disappointed, and he felt that there were several big dramas missing to watch.

Wei Ming retreated to the Iwami Silver Mine, and Yan Yi ran out to receive him very enthusiastically.

Some time ago, when the Manchu Dynasty civil and military shouted at him and shouted at him, only Wei Ming said a few words of justice to him, and also gave him a message, telling him of Daming's final decision, so that he could prepare early.

Wei Ming's early preparation was to ask Yan Yi to pick a tall and powerful person from the Japanese side as a stand-in, and then create a false impression of suicide.

He was turning a blind eye and secretly letting Yan Yi live, and this matter was fooled.

Who would have thought that before they carried out the plan of secretly Chen Cang, the two rebel kings of Japan ran back, stirring up the situation in Japan.

In this case, Da Ming can't talk about arresting people, even if he changes generals in battle, he can only re-appease Yan Yi and let him continue to serve as the general of the Iwami Silver Mine Guard, and assist Wei Ming in defending the silver mine.

"Lord Wei, we haven't seen each other for a long time, hahaha!"

Wei Ming also laughed when he heard this.

"The last time I saw you, you were still a quasi-prisoner, and you asked me to speak for you. Well, now that I've become a mourning dog, I have to ask your brother to take care of me! ”

"What did Lord Wei say, we are ministers in the same hall, and we should take care of each other!"

Wei Ming followed Yan Yi into the silver mine only to find out that the Iwami Silver Mine was said to be a silver mine, but it had actually evolved into a town.

There are all kinds of restaurants and tea shops inside, and what makes him even more satisfied is that there are brothels inside!

"Brother Yan, you have a good life this day, no worse than the days in Kyoto!"

"Where, where is I here comparable to Kyoto, I have been in business for so many years, and I have only invited five of the top ten Oiran in Kyoto, and five of them don't come for any money, hahaha!"

Yan Yi said modestly, but the smug expression on his face was full.

However, Iwami Castle's rapid development not only has the credit of the previous generations, but Yan Yi has also made a lot of contributions in it.

If he hadn't driven away several guards around the Iwami Silver Mine, unified Iwami, Izumo, Yasumo, and Nagato, and put them all under the jurisdiction of Iwami Castle, Iwami Castle wouldn't have been so prosperous.

In addition, they Iwami Castle had duty-free privileges and could import goods from Daming at a low price, which further prospered the city, which led to the prosperity of Iwami Castle today.

Wei Ming could naturally hear Yan Yi's smugness, and joked with a smile.

"Are you content?"

"I've been in Kyoto for so long, and I've only learned five Oirans, and I can only get ten of them from you, hahaha!"

As soon as Yan Yi heard Wei Ming's words, he knew that this guy was a fellow believer, so the conversation between the two became even more unscrupulous.

When the two of them were eating, one person was holding two oirans, and the food and wine were all served by the oiran, and the one who ate was called a fragrant one.

"Brother Yan, they all say that the release is a chore, what was not cultivated in the previous life, and it fell into the Golden Continent. The ancestors were unlucky, and the Wa country was mining. ”

"But how do they know the benefits of being released?"

"Let's not talk about anything else, there are four Oiran serving in a single meal, and there is also an Oiran playing the piano and singing music on the side, which is not comparable to that group of shabby Beijing officials!"

Yan Yi echoed when he heard this.

"Who says it's not, but if you return to Daming one day, Xia Guan will still be the same as the previous ones, saying how hard it is in Japan, how tired it is, you can't eat anything you want, you can't play anything you want!"

Wei Ming was stunned when he heard this, and laughed after he understood.

"Yes!"

"That's it!"

"Let's not only take credit for ourselves, but also for the benefit of our successors, hahaha!"

The two laughed for a while, and a soldier hurried over.

"General, there is a small force of cavalry outside the city, do we have to do something to deal with it?"

When Wei Ming heard this, he became nervous.

"What's the situation, when the official led the people to retreat, they didn't chase them, the officials all entered the city, but they came to the spirit."

Yan Yi shook his head when he heard this.

"Master Wei, you don't understand this. When you retreated from Kyoto, it was called the poor Kou, and since ancient times, the poor Kou did not chase, and people did not want to chase you, because they were afraid that you would fight with them! ”

"Now that you have entered the city, they can calmly besiege the city and trap us here."

"Huh?"

When Wei Ming heard this, he panicked on the spot.

"What can we do about this, why don't we kill it?"

"Kill?"

Yan Yi sneered when he heard this.

"Lord Wei, you don't know anything about military affairs, we are protected by the city wall now, and the Japanese slaves outside can't do anything with us."

"If we abandon the city and run away, then they have 10,000 ways to kill us!"

"Let's just stick to Iwami Castle, and we won't be able to get in for a hundred years for those Japanese slaves."

Wei Ming said nervously when he heard this.

"Not necessarily, if the whole army of the Japanese country comes to attack, what should we do?"

When Yan Yi heard this, he arched his hand in the direction of Da Ming.

"It's up to us to see the Ming Dynasty, I believe that the Ming Dynasty will not see death or be saved."

"As long as Daming sends a few warships, let's not talk about defending the city, we can push back if we don't do it!"

Wei Ming saw that Yan Yi was sure of what he said, and the big stone in his heart finally let go of a few points.

But after such a fuss from the Japanese slaves, he also lost his interest, and retreated after a few sips of wine perfunctorily.

Wei Ming came out of the restaurant, did not go to the place where Yan Yi had prepared for him, but took a few guards to the city wall.

After seeing the hundreds of cannons on the city wall, Wei Ming's heart finally fell to the ground.

"No wonder Butcher Yan didn't panic, it turned out that there were such good things!"

As soon as Wei Ming's words fell, he heard Yan Yi laugh loudly.

"Master Wei, it's not a good habit to speak ill of people behind your back!"

Wei Ming didn't seem embarrassed when he heard this, but repeated it in front of him.

"Let's say you're a strict butcher, but we praise you!"

"Our biggest regret now is that you killed too little at that time, if you killed a few million more at that time, we wouldn't have to be trapped in the city now."

Yan Yi shook his head when he heard this.

"You can't kill it, you can't kill it at all!"

"If you kill more than 10,000 people, you can't kill it."

"Lord Wei doesn't know, the matter of slaughtering the village is quite a test of conscience. In the days when the village was slaughtered, there were soldiers in the barracks who had nightmares every day, and they were often so frightened that they got up in the middle of the night and ran around the barracks! ”

Wei Ming not only didn't feel terrified when he heard this, but faintly regretted it.

"Did you only kill more than 10,000?"

"Of course, how many do you think the despicable can kill?"

"There are still a lot of manslaughters that were made when the red eyes were killed, in fact, there were only three or four thousand people who actually slaughtered the village, and more people were killed by the ronin samurai who took advantage of the fire to rob, and they killed a lot more than us."

"The lowly position just said to them, all the property they have robbed belongs to them, and if they don't want a penny from the lowly position, they will kill the red eye."

"However, this matter is counted on the head of the lowly office, and the lowly office is not denied."

"After all, without my support, they wouldn't be able to do so many pickled things!"

"Oooh oh ......"

When Wei Ming heard Yan Yi say this, he finally had a little more understanding of the battlefield.

"So it's so troublesome to kill someone!"

"Lord Wei, you'll know if you go to the battlefield a few more times. This kind of killing in the village is different from killing people on the battlefield, they are two completely different feelings. ”

"It's okay to kill 100,000 people on the battlefield, but when it comes to slaughtering villages, killing a few thousand people is not a lot."

"Imagine when you raise your knife to the gray-haired old man and the baby who is waiting to be fed, can you do it?"

Wei Ming shook his head when he heard this.

"This official can't!"

Yan Yi smiled bitterly when he heard this.

"The lowly position is also a human being, and the lowly position cannot be done."

"But I found that there was someone who could, and that was those Japanese ronin samurai. They really can do anything, and they did all the crazy things! ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Wei Ming's eyes when he heard this.

"Since they did it, why didn't you argue and refute yourself when the Manchu civil and military attacked you for slaughtering the Japanese people?"

Yan Yi spread his hands helplessly when he heard this.

"Because these people were all killed by me afterwards, I didn't even have a living mouth, how can I defend myself!"

Wei Ming was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then cheered loudly.

"General Yan deserves to be a real man!"

"This beast should be killed!"

"If we can hold on to the Ming reinforcements, this official will definitely write to the court to ask for credit for you!"

Yan Yi is very aware of his situation, he wears the nickname "Yan Butcher" on his head, he doesn't want to be promoted in this life, and he is lucky not to be liquidated when he returns to Daming.

"Then I thanked Lord Wei first, but I don't expect anything from this matter......

The topic was a bit dull at this point, and Wei Ming didn't know how to comfort Yan Yi.

When torches were lit at the top of the city, the two men went to sleep peacefully for fear of being used as live targets.

The next day, before Wei Ming could get up from his bed, he heard the guards say that there were a few more Japanese slaves outside the city, and through the binoculars, he could see that more Japanese slaves were gathering in the distance, and cutting down the surrounding trees to build siege equipment.

Wei Ming was a little panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly went to find Yan Yi, but unexpectedly, Yan Yi had already gone up to the city wall one step ahead of him.

When Wei Ming chased after him, he was bumping into Yan Yi commanding the soldiers how to arrange the defense, Wei Ming was born in the imperial examination, and he couldn't say that he didn't know anything about military affairs, so his knowledge was also limited.

Therefore, when Wei Ming saw Yan Yi commanding the soldiers, he immediately came up with the idea of stealing the division.

"Go to the eastern wall, and see if they have been laid out according to the general's orders!"

"No!"

"And this cannon, it must be oiled and maintained every day, and the shells should not be stacked on the city wall, but must be placed in the ammunition depot behind the city wall, and one in the cannon in normal times, one outside, and the rest should be stored in the warehouse......"

"No!"

"Finally, from today onwards, the mining matter can be slowed down first, and three hundred people will be dispatched every day to train the miner queue, so that they can assist in defending the city......
