The purple plug is separated by three passes, and the yellow dust is passed on all sides. The beard blows back, and the Han moon is still empty. The miscellaneous is still with the horse, and the depression is dark and chasing the wind. The general took a break and wiped it, leaving some red in his battle robe.

Knowing the news of the all-out invasion of the Portuguese navy, the daimyo princes from all over the country united as never before, and sent elite generals to Muromachi to participate in the battle, and with the number of troops that the Shogunate's palace could mobilize, the shogunate gathered a total of 120,000 elite soldiers and horses. Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimasa personally served as the commander-in-chief of the war, and he appointed Kazuo Yagyu and Tokugawa Tatsunobu as deputy commanders, gathered troops along the coast of Yokohama, and began to train men and horses day and night in preparation for a decisive battle at sea.

Soon after Dugu Xiaotian and Yanagi Yukiko got married, all parties arrived, and Dugu Xiaotian also began to be busy for the subsequent sea battle. He procured a large number of cowhides and cannonballs, selected ten masters of the brocade guard, and secretly trained in a small lake on the coast, the outer part of the training place was monitored by the shogunate masters, and the inner perimeter was closely monitored by the masters of the Ming brocade guard, so that outsiders could not understand the content of their specific training.

Night is approaching, and on a deserted island near Yokohama, the sea breeze is howling. Guizang Takeo and Yu Feihua stood on the shore, letting the sea breeze blow on their faces, not moving.

Guizang Takeo was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Military Division, we have received the battle letter from the General's Mansion, and we will fight a decisive battle on Yokohama the day after tomorrow." Your eyeliner, have you found the arrangement of Dugu Xiaotian? ”

Yu Feihua's face was embarrassed, and she said softly: "Chief, our dark line has not found useful information, Dugu Xiaotian with his entourage from Daming, trained in a small lake, one kilometer around is strictly under martial law, our people can only approach 200 zhang, and we can't see the specific situation of their training." ”

Guizang Wuxiong pondered for a long time, "How many people are there in Dugu Xiaotian's training?" ”

"Less than 20 people!" Yu Feihua affirmed.

"Military division, only 20 people, even if a special assassination team is formed, can it make a difference on the battlefield of more than 100,000 people?" Guizang Takeo asked coldly.

Yu Feihua pondered for a moment, "Unless this team can capture Badel or the leader of you, it won't change the entire battle situation." ”

Guizang Takeo nodded, "There are only these two possibilities I can think of, how many masters can we deploy now?" ”

Yu Feihua's expression darkened, the last time Chinatown assassinated Dugu Xiaotian, the loss was extremely heavy. She gritted her teeth and said, "Great Chief, the master of internal strength above the seventh level, we still have more than seventy people. ”

Guizang Takeo said coldly: "Strategist, you lead fifty masters to the Portuguese marshal ship 'Holy Sword' to protect Prince Bardell and Captain Hahn. The rest of the masters remain on my flagship 'Thousand Blades'.

Yu Feihua bowed down and agreed, "The victory or defeat of this battle is mainly on the battleships, there are a total of 26 gunboats on our side, according to intelligence, there are only 20 gunboats in the General's Palace, and the performance and artillery range power are not as good as the Portuguese gunboats." ”

Guizang Wuxiong nodded yes, and then asked: "Near Gulangyu Island, have you detected the movement of the Daming Naval Division?" ”

"The Daming Sailor has been staying at the Xiamen port station and has not moved." Yu Feihua said respectfully, "Three days ago, we had already sent 3,000 pirates, led by Kojiro, to pretend to be Japanese pirates to raid the villages near Fuzhou, causing interference to the rear of the Ming Dynasty. They don't act rashly. ”

"Good! Now that the news has leaked, the Portuguese warship is no longer a secret, and we will use all our strength the day after tomorrow to crush the General's Mansion head-on. Guizang Takeo shouted loudly, roared at the sea, and the shore roared.

It's late at night, and people don't sleep. Yanagi Yukiko's face was haggard, and she said softly: "Brother Tian, there will be a sea battle tomorrow, I can't sleep, I'm worried about the outcome of tomorrow's war." ”

Dugu Xiaotian smiled indifferently, "Didn't I 'brag' to you?" What else are you worried about? ”

"There are a lot of variables on the battlefield, I'm afraid there will be an accident tomorrow?" Yanagi Yukiko pressed her face to Dugu Xiaotian's chest and said worriedly.

"Xuezi, let me tell you a big secret, half a month ago, I had already arranged for Master Zhang Shouren to go to Fujian, mobilize the Daming Water Master, and make all preparations." Dugu Xiaotian leaned to Yanagi Yukiko's ear and whispered.

Yukiko Yanagi's ears itched, and she was overjoyed when she heard this. She gently hammered Dugu Xiaotian twice with her small fist, "You are so bad, you still hide such a powerful trick." ”

Dugu Xiaotian gently hugged her into his arms and said gently: "This is a big war that will shake the fortunes of Dongying's country, how can your husband not strategize and arrange carefully, you can rest assured and have a good rest." ”

Yanagi Yukiko twisted her body twice, and said coquettishly: "I'm relieved, but I can't sleep because of what you said, I want it once." ”

"Well, there's still eight hours before the war starts, so it's too late." Dugu Xiaotian agreed softly, and then hugged Xuezi tightly.

On January 9, the 25th year of the Toei calendar, the largest naval battle of the Muromachi period broke out. Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimasa, led an army of 120,000, 20 large gunboats, and 150 small warships to fight a decisive battle in the Yokohama Islands with the warships of Takeo and Portugal.

Guizo Takeo led 70,000 rebels, ten gunboats, and 80 small warships to fight on Yokohama Island. The Portuguese navy, with 26,000 navies, 16 new gunboats, and 102 small warships, sailed out from a secret base on the back of Yokohama Island to join the rebel fleet of Takeo in Tibet.

The vast ocean is boundless, and looking down from the vast starry sky, more than 200 warships of the warring sides are like insects of all sizes, lying on the blue wheat field. An army of 200,000 people seems so small to fight on the sea, but this battle will determine the future political situation and the well-being of the people.

On Ashikaga Yoshimasa's handsome ship 'Daisho', everyone held a clairvoyant mirror and carefully observed the enemy's military formation. The warships on both sides were approaching, and it was already less than three kilometers.

"General, we can start acting," Dugu smiled and bowed.

Ashikaga Yoshimasa nodded, "Dugu Shaoxia must protect his own safety, and in addition, if your surprise attack fails, I will burn the beacon tower on the sea as soon as possible and send a signal to the Daming Sailor for help." ”

Dugu smiled and shook his head, "General, there are many variables on the battlefield, in order to win this battle, we should make an emergency plan." ”

Liu Sheng and a man sighed, "Dugu Shaoxia, please, if this raid is successful, it will reduce at least half of our casualties." ”

Tokugawa Ryushin also bowed and said in stiff Chinese: "Xiao Tianjun, please, your strategy is very bold, I admire it." ”

Yanagi Senbei and Yanagi Yukiko were also on the General, Yanagi Yukiko looked at Dugu Xiaotian with affection, and smiled: "Pay attention to safety, if there is danger, retreat in time!"

Dugu Xiaotian glanced deeply at Yanagi Yukiko, and snorted, "Line up!" ”

Ten brocade guards came up from under the cabin, each carrying a copper pipe with water on their bodies, carrying a special large leather bag, and a rattan basket wrapped around their waists.

The generals of Dongying looked at this strange outfit and were amazed.

Dugu Xiaotian took over a set of the same equipment and quickly put it on. He observed the enemy battleship with a clairvoyant for a moment, "There are still two quarters of an hour to go into the range of the gunboat, let's brag and prepare to launch." ”

Eleven people pushed aside the copper tube of the special cowhide bag behind them, inhaled suddenly, and then blew into the cowhide bag behind them, like blowing a big balloon, so back and forth more than 30 times, blowing the cowhide bag behind them into a "balloon" more than half a person high, and then sealed the copper pipe with a knob.

Dugu Xiaotian smiled at Xuezi and jumped into the sea first, followed by the remaining ten people who also jumped off the gunboat. Eleven water escape brass pipes emerged from the sea and hurried towards the enemy gunboat group.
