On the coast of Sado Island, thousands of Japanese troops have gathered, seeing their own fleet almost wiped out, seeing the Ming warships slowly approaching, and seeing the flags hunted and displayed on the warships, these thousands of Japanese people raised their bows and arrows in their hands, and still did not give up and fired a crazy salvo at the ships docking.

And Daming's response to this is still the same tactics, turning the rudder, adjusting the hull, and returning fire with the artillery on the left and right sides of the ship.

Condescendingly, and relying on artillery that far exceeds the range and power of bows and arrows, it is not too easy to hit these Japanese people, and after several rounds of cannonball salvos, the Japanese people's arrow array has been chaotic.

The Ming Dynasty has been peaceful for a long time, Wang Gong's gunpowder, projectiles have been made year after year, and several years of hoarding have already become an incomparably considerable scale, and most of the expedition has been taken away, so there is no need to worry about the lack of ammunition for the artillery.

The volleys of artillery were fired one after another, until the entire arrow array of the Japanese completely collapsed, and the ships quickly docked, and the soldiers with firecrackers disembarked first, and the firecrackers in their hands fired another round of salvos.

Under the cover of these firearms, groups of soldiers left the ship and landed, and then lined up in the open space of the beach, advancing towards the battle line of the Japanese people.

During this period, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army had not yet declined to the outrageous level in the later period, and although the Japanese knives in the hands of the Japanese were sharp and sharp, the Ming army was likely not to take advantage of them with their short handover, but with the fire gun in hand, there was no need to do close contact at all.

Taking advantage of the collapse of the Japanese people's arrow array, before a new round of offensive was formed, a pole of fire was a sharp weapon to harvest human lives.

Advancing layer by layer, round after round of salvo, there is almost no grass growing within dozens of steps.

The sound of the fire of the firebolts, the shouts of killing, the shouts and curses of the dumb fire, and the wails of the Japanese people were all in one.

Behind them, there were still warships docking, and a large number of officers and men disembarked one after another, holding firearms and quickly joining the battle group, so that these resounding voices rose to a new level.

On the tower of the battleship, Zhang Mao held the railing with his hands, his whole old face turned red with excitement, and he didn't know what he was muttering.

If you listen closely, you can probably hear the blessing of the ancestors, God opened his eyes, and the old man was finally able to lead the troops to fight.

After tens of thousands of soldiers landed one after another, the resisting Japanese were all killed and wounded, and the remnants fled one after another.

After another half an hour, a certain warship dragging the carcass of the whale finally arrived, and by this time, the battle had long since ended, and all that could be seen was the countless corpses on the shore, and the red soaked in the mud.

The red is dazzling, the red is vivid.

Although he knew that it was very likely that he would not be in a hurry, and the practice of the target had been delayed for so long, seeing that the war was over, Zhu Houzhao was still angry.

When the ship docked and stopped, they got off the ship, and the Ming army on the shore had already cut down the surrounding trees, built a huge fire, and threw the corpses of a Japanese into the fire.

The smell of burnt and bloody is permeated throughout the beach, and it is intertwined to make people feel uncomfortable when they smell it.

Zhang Mao's face at this time had regained calm, only there was a wisp of imperceptible excitement between his eyebrows, he walked over to Zhu Houzhao and saluted, and then looked at Xia Yuan and said: "Xia Rongzheng, this expedition to the Japanese Kingdom is all your one effort to advocate to Your Majesty, now that the army has landed, what kind of charter should it be?" ”

"The intention of the lower officials is to follow the direction of the Japanese people's rout, follow the vines and find melons, first destroy the daimyo entrenched here, and occupy the entire island."

As the commander-in-chief, Zhang Mao learned that the Wa Kingdom might be in civil strife now, and he also knew that these princes of the Wa Kingdom were called daimyo, but hearing that the daimyo had been destroyed first always made him feel very harsh.

Zhu Houzhao felt even more harsh, frowning and interjecting: "What Daming? The Japanese still have the Ming Dynasty? ”

"Your Highness, this name is not the Ming Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, the name is the name of the name, and His Highness understands it as a separatist force."

Hearing the word secession, Zhu Houzhao's frowning brows instantly relaxed, and his eyes lit up, "You mean, there is still a separatist force of the Japanese Kingdom entrenched on this island?" ”

Xia Yuan thought about it with his heels, he knew what this kid had in mind, and what he could do was a big force, there were people and soldiers in the land, and with these, it meant that there was a war to fight, and then this kid felt that he had a place to play.

"If there is no great name entrenched."

"Don't call it a daimyo, this palace always sounds awkward, you change it."

"Then it's called too. No, Chieftain. ”

Instead of changing his name, the first word that came to Xia Yuan's mind was actually Taijun, as a later generation, he had long combined these two words with Xiao Ri, and they both formed a conditioned reflex, but he thought about it, Taijun is a good word, such as She Taijun.

Why let the little day practice the word Taijun.

"Chieftain?"

Zhu Houzhao thought for a while, and then nodded and said: "Okay, the Japanese chief is the Japanese chief, as long as it is not a big name, what do you want to say, you continue." ”

"If there is no big uh here, if there is no Japanese chieftain entrenched, it is absolutely impossible for there to be so many Japanese people."

Let's call it a widow.

Xia Yuan looked at the corpses that were lifted and thrown into the fire, they had no armor, they were wearing ordinary clothes, but they had weapons in their hands, that is, soldiers.

"The old man also thinks so, even if there are no Japanese chieftains on this island, there must be a force entrenched here." Zhang Mao bowed his head and quickly accepted the term "Chieftain".

"The old man sent scouts to follow the fleeing widows to find out the news, and now while the scouts have not returned, he will let the army repair for the time being."

Speaking of this, Zhang Mao turned around and looked at the mountains on both sides, and then looked at the vast sea connected by the coastline, and then said: "This island should not be far from the Japanese country, and the capture of this island can be used as a camp for our army." ”

Hearing this, Xia Yuan really wanted to say that the hero saw the same thing, don't look at the old man of the British Duke who has never been on the battlefield or led the troops to fight, but he has been immersed in the barracks for many years, and he still has a strategic vision.

Sado Island is definitely competent as a military fortress, and it can attack the Japanese mainland if you advance, and you can defend it by relying on the island when you retreat.

Not to mention, there are gold and silver mines on this island.

According to his idea, even if he finishes fighting the Japanese state, this island must not be abandoned, and he must leave the army to stick to this island and completely build it into an overseas territory of the Ming Dynasty.

At this time, Zhang Mao looked at Zhu Houzhao again, and saluted again: "Your Highness, the old minister dared to ask His Highness to move, and he just fought a few times, caught a few live mouths, and bothered His Highness to help interrogate him." ”

This is to let Zhu Houzhao, a person who is proficient in foreign languages, appear, and when he goes out, he is afraid of the language barrier.

And this is also the reason why Zhang Mao reluctantly agreed to Zhu Houzhao to accompany the army, otherwise, with the enthusiasm of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who dreamed of going to the battlefield, Zhang Mao would not have brought him to death.
