Chapter 136: We Are Surrounded by the Ming Army!

The next day, the 45,000-strong army of the Zhou army set out for the Choshu Domain, leaving only more than 5,000 men in Nagasaki to guard the prisoners.

After getting the news, Shimazu Mitsutake, the Daming of the Satsuma Domain, was immediately overjoyed, since the main force of the Ming army had already set off from the Choshu Domain, he could take Nagasaki and block the retreat of the Ming army.

According to the news brought back by the spies, there are only 5,000 Ming troops in Nagasaki City, and no matter how brave and powerful they are, they will not be able to withstand the impact of their 200,000 troops.

Thinking of this, Shimazu Mitsutake looked excited, and they hurriedly ordered to send troops to Nagasaki in three days, the reason why they had to wait for three days was because he was afraid that the main force of the Ming army would not go far and return to support immediately, and then it would be a disaster.

Finally, three days have come, although the spies sent out have not returned, I don't know where the Ming army has gone now, but this is harmless, no matter where the Ming army goes, as long as it can't return to Nagasaki in three days.

Shimazu Mitsutake was sure to take Nagasaki in one day, after all, Nagasaki only had 5,000 Ming troops, and with his absolute superiority in troops, a small Nagasaki was not yet easy to capture.

Thinking of this, Shimazu Mitsutake no longer hesitated and hurriedly ordered, 200,000 troops set off for Nagasaki, the reason why 200,000 troops were sent was because he was not afraid of 10,000, he was afraid of what happened, if the main force of the Ming army came back, he could still have a fight.

It took only two days for the soldiers of the Satsuma Domain to reach the castle of Nagasaki, and looking at this city, which used to belong to the Hizen Domain, the only city that could be used for trade, Shimazu Mitsutake's eyes glowed green, and he had been coveting Nagasaki for a long time.

Today can finally get his wish, Shimazu Mitsutake is very excited, according to the spies at this time in Nagasaki City, there are more than 70,000 soldiers of the Hizen Domain and more than 80,000 soldiers of the shogunate.

After attacking Nagasaki Castle by himself, he can still get the soldiers and horses of the Hizen Domain, and he can improve his strength a lot, but as for the soldiers and horses of the shogunate, he doesn't want to be incorporated, after all, he doesn't want to officially fall out with the shogunate now.

The more Shimazu Mitsutake, who was dreaming, became more and more excited, and hurriedly ordered the siege of the city, and immediately 10,000 vanguard soldiers rushed towards Nagasaki Castle.

At this time, it was Yang Zhenghai who was guarding Nagasaki City, because it was a strategy to lure the snake out of the hole, so the cannons were not taken away, and they were all installed on the city wall.

Seeing this group of Fusang soldiers rushing towards him, Yang Zhenghai sneered, "Open the cannon!"

Suddenly, three 280 heavy guns, 100 Tianwei guns, and 300 mortars opened fire at the same time.

I saw that the shells of the 280 heavy artillery exploded in the middle of the Fusang soldiers, and suddenly a blank area with a diameter of more than ten meters appeared, and the Fusang soldiers within the explosion range were blown to pieces.

Although the Tianwei cannon can only blow up a blank area within a meter range, there are many Tianwei cannons, and a hundred shells explode at once, and the actual damage is more than that of 280 heavy guns.

Mortars can only kill a few people if they fall into the crowd, but the mortars are more numerous, fire faster, and have the same lethality as the Tianwei cannon.

These 10,000 Fusang soldiers were only shelled three times, and only a few hundred lucky ones were left to run back, they were really lucky, and they could still run back in such a dense shelling, it really took luck against the sky.

If they could buy lottery tickets, it would be a proper first prize of 5 million players.

When Shimazu Mitsutake saw this scene, his face was as black as charcoal, he didn't expect that the Ming army still had such powerful artillery fire, and his 10,000 soldiers didn't play any role, so it was gone.

Is your dream about to come to naught? The more Shimazu Mitsutake thought about it, the more angry he became, and hurriedly ordered: "Keep rushing up for me!" ”

After the generals got the order, they hurriedly went down to organize the second charge, this time there were 20,000 Fusang soldiers charging, this time the Fusang soldiers were much smarter, and everyone was scattered, which greatly reduced the killing efficiency of the cannon.

This time, at the cost of only 5,000 soldiers and horses, they arrived, 200 meters from the city wall, when the heavy machine guns and Gatling guns on the city wall opened fire.

The previous battles were sieges, so I didn't make good use of Gatling's power, and now I was defending on a high place like the city wall, and shooting at the Fuso soldiers below was as easy as cutting wheat.

This Gatling's harvesting speed is much stronger than that of a cannon, and with his terrifying speed of more than a thousand bullets a minute, these fifty Gatlings on the city wall can be said to kill as many as they come.

The fifteen thousand Fuso soldiers who rushed to the front of the city wall were all defeated by Gatling in just ten minutes.

At this time, another 30,000 Fusang soldiers rushed towards the city wall, and this time the shelling killed only 3,000 soldiers, and the remaining 27,000 soldiers also rushed under the city wall, and they also suffered the Gatling baptism.

The Fusang soldiers fell one by one, and these Fusang soldiers who rushed to the front had no choice but to use some simple ladders to set up on the city wall, and then climb up.

At this time, the 500 soldiers with AK47 shot at the people on the ladder, because the AK47 was too powerful, as long as one shot Fusang soldiers would fall off the ladder.

At this moment, 500 bombardiers also dared to go to the gathering area of the ladder, and when they came to the ladder, they took out grenades from the bags behind them and threw them at the ladder.

These grenadiers are all selected and trained, and they all throw far and accurately.

I saw that countless explosions suddenly came from under the five cloud ladders, and the Fusang soldiers who were about to climb the cloud ladders were blown up one after another.

The five ladders were also blown apart, and the people on them fell one after another.

In this way, the two sides launched a fierce siege battle, and the Fusang soldiers were using their lives to fill the bullets of the Zhou army, and Gatling no longer knew how many people had been killed, and the people who fired had already changed two waves, after all, anyone who kept shooting like this for half an hour couldn't stand it.

When the soldiers of the Satsuma Domain were about 30,000 soldiers, another 40,000 Fusang soldiers rushed up, and with the addition of these 40,000 Fusang soldiers, the Zhou family army suddenly fell into a disadvantage, after all, there were too many people to kill at all.

At this time, there are more than 20 ladders erected on the city wall, and the dense Fusang soldiers climb up, and it is believed that it will not be long before there will be Fusang soldiers who will be able to climb the city wall.

Seeing this scene, Shimazu Mitsutake finally showed a smile, although he paid the lives of 60,000 Fuso soldiers, but Shimazu Mitsutake didn't care, he just wanted Nagasaki, the soldiers were gone, and they could be recruited again, he never put the life and death of the soldiers in his eyes.

Just when Shimazu Mitsutake thought that he was about to take Nagasaki, he suddenly heard the sound of uniform footsteps from all directions.

"The daimyo is not good, we are surrounded by the Ming army!" A soldier ran to Shimazu and knelt down in front of him.

"What? We are surrounded by Ming troops? Where did the Ming army come from! Shimazu Mitsutake was shocked.

"We are surrounded by Ming armies attacking us!"

Hearing this, Shimazu Mitsutake decisively ordered: "Don't attack Nagasaki, everyone go back and break through." ”

The officers and generals of the Satsuma Domain were also shocked when they heard this, and hurriedly ran down to give the order.

But their speed has slowed down, they have been surrounded by the Zhou army, yes, they are surrounded.

Although the Satsuma Domain still has 140,000 soldiers and horses, it is not worth mentioning at all in front of the 50,000 hot-armed troops of the Zhou family.

Shimazu Mitsutake led 100,000 Fuso soldiers in one direction.

Since they were already surrounded by the Zhou family's army, how could they escape so easily.
