Hu Bo Yiyan carefully observed the stone wall with a telescope, and saw that it was indeed completely different from the stone wall in China.

The stone walls in China are all cut into square stones, built tightly with mortar glutinous rice, and are not afraid of artillery bombardment at all, no matter how close the distance is, the artillery of the Ming army will not collapse.

But the so-called 'Protector Shrine' in front of me is completely piled up with basically unprocessed stones of different sizes. Therefore, the height is not high, the slope is not enough, and there are no traces of plastering in the cracks of the stone, which is indeed easy to collapse under shelling.

"If this work is done by our craftsmen, there will not be enough heads to cut off." Hu Bo agreed with Wang Bi's judgment, and the reason why it did not collapse was because the distance was too far and the power of the cannonball was not enough.

"Maybe the stone wall has collapsed, and it was built by Na Huailiang temporarily." Wang Bi guessed.

"Makes sense." Hu Bo also felt that there was only this possibility.

They didn't know that this stone wall was like this back then. In Japan in this era, the city wall is a very rare thing, even the wall of the Imperial Palace is piled up like this, of course, this does not affect the Japanese to give it a terrible name - jade accumulation.

So Wang Bi decided to set up camp at the wharf today and transport a batch of artillery ashore overnight.

~~

On the stone wall, the three of them saw that the Ming army had no intention of attacking after coming ashore, but began to dig trenches, set up deer firewood, and erect fences.

The three of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then they could not care about the casualties. I learned that in the previous shelling, more than 200 people were killed and more than 500 were injured, and many of them jumped from the stone wall and fell themselves.

It wasn't a big deal, but they were annoyed by the panic before.

"This is still defending your hometown, and you are so cowardly and panicked, it's so damned!" Shao Er Lai Cheng said angrily.

"It's all to blame on Prince Huailiang, who buried our five hundred samurai for nothing, so there will be this situation." Otomo said with a dark face.

"It's really impactful." Shimazu said with deep understanding: "Without the leadership of the samurai, those ashigaru are simply headless flies, which will only add to the chaos." ”

When Japan was in Kamakura Shogunate, the manor land system was implemented. The daimyo divided the land to the mina, and the daimyo gave the land to the samurai, who led the peasants on their land to produce in peacetime, train them in leisure, and lead them into battle when it was time to fight.

On the battlefield, the peasants who served as ashigaru only knew the samurai who got along with them day and night, and only their own samurai could command them.

Therefore, Prince Huailiang's adventure not only wasted 500 warriors, but also caused the Southern Dynasty army to lose 500 grassroots officers, and the control of the three people over the low-level soldiers was naturally greatly affected.

Of course, even when they themselves were shelled, they were numb, and the movement of the landslide was really terrifying.

So when they found out that the reason why the Ming army did not attack immediately was to transport artillery to the shore, they immediately couldn't sit still.

That thing is so terrible so far away, if the Ming army is transported closer, won't the casualties caused be even greater?

"No, they must be stopped!" Shao Er Lai Cheng said anxiously: "I can't wait for them to transport the cannon to a nearby place. ”

"Yes." Shimazu nodded and said, "We must take the initiative and drive them off the beach!" ”

"But if you take the initiative to attack, not only will you not protect the country, but you will also attack the camp of the Ming army." Otomo's relatives were worried: "That's the Ming army that defeated the Yuan army." ”

"We have also defeated the Yuan army, what is there to be afraid of?" Shao Er Lai Cheng hurriedly cheered up.

But it was their grandfather's grandfather who defeated the Yuan army, what does it have to do with them?

Therefore, Otomo's relatives still do not approve of a head-on battle.

"Then night attack!" Shimazu clan long volunteered: "Tonight, I will personally lead the warriors of the Shimazu family to steal the camp, and your Otomo family only needs to follow behind to pick up the bargain!" ”

"Okay." Otomo thought it was a great idea.

~~

So on the third watch that night, the Shimazu clan led two thousand elites of the family, quietly climbed down the wall, and then took advantage of the cover of the ruins and broken walls to touch the Ming army camp in the open place of the wharf.

The distance between the two sides was less than 100 feet, and the Japanese army quickly touched the outside of the camp, erected it on the trench with the wooden planks they carried, and then climbed over with their hands and feet.

Who knew that just half of the people had passed, and the outside of the camp, which was originally pitch black, suddenly lit up. The Ming army, hiding in the shadows, threw torches into the trench where flammable materials had been piled up in advance and oil was poured on them.

In the trench, a raging fire broke out at the time of the climb, burning the Japanese soldiers who were passing above them.

Outside the camp, the Ming army, which had been in ambush for a long time, rushed out of the hiding place with a roar, and fought with the soldiers of the Shimazu family who were cut in two!

The combat effectiveness and fighting will of the Shimazu soldiers are indeed not low, even if they are ambushed and surrounded by enemies on all sides, they still wield long knives and spears to resist desperately.

But they ran into the Hongwu Ming army, which was fighting the Mongols and fled far north of the desert.

Not to mention anything else, the Ming army was one head taller and one set larger than them on average. Naturally, the strength is much greater than that of the Japanese soldiers who are only vegetarians.

The difference in strength between the two sides was too great, and this part was quickly divided and surrounded by the Ming army, and then annihilated one by one.

Then the Ming army opened fire on the Japanese troops outside the trench with muskets and bows and arrows through the furious trench.

In fact, the bows and arrows of the Japanese army are very powerful, but although they are small, they are obsessed with longbows and huge arrows, and they are here to steal the camp tonight, who will carry that kind of thing that gets in the way?

As a result, there was no way to fight back, and he could only be beaten with his head scurry.

In the chaos, Shimazu continued to command at the front until he was hit by an arrow in the knee and fled back with his retainers on his back. I kept looking back, lest the Ming army catch up...... It wasn't until he met the big friendly army that he was shocked for a while, and then he scolded:

"Bagaya Road, why did you come so slowly?!"

"When I saw that they had lit the trench, I hurried back with the men to get their bows, and this time it was delayed." Otomo waved a big bow about his height and said, "Who knew you would be defeated so quickly. ”

"Baga, the generals of the Ming army are capable, and they have long been prepared for our sneak attack." Shimazu said dejectedly.

"I'll just say it......" Seeing this, Otomo's relatives did not step forward to send him to death, and decisively withdrew to the stone wall.

Looking at the embarrassed Shimazu clan, Shaoer Lai Cheng was shocked: "How can this be? You are the bravest Shimazu army in Kyushu! ”

Shimazu Shijiu said with a gray face: "The Ming army is tall and strong, and all of them are well-equipped, skilled in martial arts, and extremely brave, in front of them, our warriors are like children, and no matter how brave a child is, he can't beat an adult." ”

The three of ......them were silent for a long time, and their eyes invariably fell on the winding stone wall, knowing that they could not resist the Ming army without this god wall to protect the country.

"Please!" The trio knelt down in reverence around the stone wall, hoping that their great god would perform another miracle and help them defeat an invincible enemy.
