Chapter 281: Battle of Hakata Bay
Zhang Yun was waiting for the Kobayakawa family to come and ask for surrender, ready to solve the hidden danger of the Kobayakawa family, so he waved his army south and went straight to the territory of the Shimazu family.
During the heyday of the Shimazu family, most of Kyushu was under his rule, with a total of 2.5 million koku, far exceeding the contemporaries of Tokugawa Ieyasu (1.8 million koku) and Hojo clan (2 million koku), and second only to Toyotomi Hideyoshi's 4 million koku.
In the subsequent Kyushu expedition, the Shimazu family was defeated and lost most of the territory, and now only more than 500,000 koku of territory remains. Their contemporary governor, Shimazu Yoshihiro, followed Toyotomi Hideyoshi to Korea.
Zhang Yun waited for two days and didn't see the Kobayakawa family, and he was secretly puzzled. Suddenly, I heard news from Zhang Long, who was stationed in Hakata Bay, that dozens of ships were heading towards Hakata Bay.
"It's bad, could it be that Toyotomi Hideyoshi led the army back to the division?" Zhang Yun chuckled in his heart, but he was immediately vetoed by shaking his head: "This is not right, dozens of warships can't hold so many of him." ”
In order to clarify his doubts, Zhang Yun rushed to Hakata Bay with his own soldiers.
In a sea area less than 100 miles from Hakata Bay, dozens of warships are slowly heading towards Hakata Bay. The first person stood on the main ship with his hands in his hands, looking at the familiar Japanese island, and couldn't help but smile on his face.
This man was none other than Fujido Takatora, who was sent by Toyotomi Hideyoshi to be the captain of the transport and bring back the gold and silver treasures he had recovered from Korea to Japan.
"Fujido-kun, when we get to Kyushu Island, we can finally rest." The lieutenant next to him suggested with a smile.
Fujido Takatora smiled and patted the man's face and said, "Kameda-kun, do you want to find that Kabuki again." ”
As soon as the words of "Hahaha......" came out, the people around showed lewd smiles.
Because Zhang Yun sent sailors to blockade the sea, Toyotomi Hideyoshi did not know that Zhang Yun had arrived on Kyushu Island. This Fujitang Gaohu looked almost unsuspecting when he was about to arrive at his hometown.
After Zhang Yun arrived at Hakata Bay, he immediately asked Zhang Long to drive the ship, put fifty warships in front, and hid the other fifty warships, ready to kill from the side to catch the returning Japanese army by surprise.
When Fujido Takatora was about to arrive at Hakata Bay, it was already evening, and he saw many warships docked in Hakata Bay from a distance, and he was puzzled, and hurriedly asked, "Kameda-kun, when did so many warships dock in Hakata Bay?" ”
Kameda was fantasizing about the beautiful scene of singing and dancing with Kabuki, and when he heard Fujido Takatora call him, he woke up from his fantasy and walked to the bow of the ship to take a look: "I guess it's the private ship of the daimyos."
You know, even the great generals turn a blind eye to them. ”
"Say Deasler." Fujitang Gaohu nodded with a smile, and then greeted Zhang Yun and the others in a friendly manner.
The sailors on the ship were stunned, and they didn't know what the hell these would-be robbers were up to.
"Get me back to my place." Zhang Long roared, pulled the soldiers back from their stunned state, and then gave another order: "The gunners are ready, and the cannons will be fired when the Japanese invaders enter the firing range." ”
"Yes!"
With Zhang Rulong's military order issued, soon the muzzles of the warship were all aimed at Fujitang Gaohu. The soldiers on the warship crouched in front of the cannons, their faces solemn, and their breathing became rapid.
Getting closer and closer, getting closer and closer, Zhang Long waved his hand: "Open the cannon!! ”
"Boom, boom, boom......" The cannons of all the warships bombarded Fujido's fleet. Fujido Takatora watched the cannonballs in the sky coming towards him, and was stunned for a while.
"Bang, bang, bang......" shells landed on the warship, and Fujido's fleet shattered wood and ignited a raging fire.
"Ah!!h Some of the Japanese robbers' clothes were ignited by the flames of the shells, and they let out a bitter howl, and some were even blown in half, and blood flowed out of the fractures.
Suddenly, fear spread across the fleet.
"Ahh "Fujido Gaohu struggled to get up, shook his head, and then saw his subordinates in a mess, the warship was on fire, and the adjutants next to him were all hanging.
Only then did he see that there was a Ming warship on the other side, so he got up and shouted: "Fight back, fight back!" ”
However, most of the Japanese troops who were able to act as transport teams were the weakest in combat effectiveness among the Japanese troops. In addition, he is a transport ship, only a small number of warships, the Ming army fired a salvo, and many ships have lost their combat effectiveness.
"Boom, boom, boom ......" was another salvo, and Fujido Gaohu didn't care about any counterattack, so he hurriedly found a place to hide, for fear of being killed by shells.
"Board the ship!" Zhang Long roared, and the Ming army approached the warship, first strafing another round with a firecracker, "bang ......", and then put the ladder up, and the Ming army continued to rush to the Japanese warship.
A young Ming soldier had just stepped on a Japanese warship and came up with a Japanese warship. I saw him roar and poke at the wolf's heart, "Uh. The soldier kicked him in the chest and drew his spear.
"Kill, !!"
"Ahh
......The sound of killing and the sound of metal colliding constantly resounded around the ship, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the blood stained the sea red.
As time passed, the shouts of killing weakened, and Zhang Yun saw in the distance that the battle was almost over, urging the warships to speed up and keep up.
When Zhang Long saw Zhang Yun coming up, he hurriedly saluted: "Master Hou." ”
"Not bad." Zhang Yun patted him on the shoulder, and then slowly walked onto the Japanese ship.
If it weren't for the fact that the kid Fujitang Gaohu had a hard life, he wouldn't have died. Several soldiers escorted Fujitang Gaohu to Zhang Yun, at this moment he was wearing a cloak and his face was blackened by thick smoke, and his appearance was very funny.
Zhang Yun cleared his throat and asked, "You drop, what name is dropping?" ”
Fuji Tang looked puzzled, not knowing what Zhang Yun said.
At this time, the translator ran out and said a lot to Fujitang, and finally the translator smiled and replied to Zhang Yun: "Master Hou, this kid's name is Fujido Gaohu, and he said that he is a close confidant of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. ”
"Then you can help me ask why he is back now."
The translator asked Fujitang Gaohu again, but Fujitang Gaohu didn't dare to hide it, so he told the translator everything.
"Master Hou, he said that he was responsible for bringing back the treasure looted in North Korea."
When Zhang Yun heard this, he exclaimed: "What?!" Then he looked at the surrounding ships, and found that less than ten ships were still floating at sea, and the rest were sunk to the bottom of the sea.
"Quick, quick... Go and bring me back the treasures of the ship. ”
After counting, a total of 2 million taels of silver, 100,000 taels of gold, plus all kinds of jade, countless rare treasures. It's a pity that some of them are still sinking, and if they are all salvaged, what a terrifying number it would be?
After recovering all the jewels in the bag, the fleet returned to the Hakata Bay Pier. There were still many corpses of Japanese soldiers floating in the sea area before, and at the same time, the sea was blazing, and black smoke rose into the sky.
As soon as Zhang Yun returned to the tent, he began to think about how to deal with the old boy of Fujitang, and while thinking and meditating, Zhang Yun's thoughts were interrupted by a movement from outside.
"Master Hou, the envoy of the Kobayakawa family came, saying that he wanted to negotiate peace with us, and he ...... it."
Before he finished speaking, he was rudely interrupted by Zhang Yun: "Let them in." ”
"Yes."
The guards responded, and then three short old men walked in with a budding girl.
"Ladies and gentlemen, if you want to negotiate peace with me, my price is not low." Zhang Yun got up and looked at a few people with a smile.
The translator immediately translated Zhang Yun's words.
After hearing this, Tomohide Kobayakawa nodded again and again, and said a lot to the translator, until a smile appeared on the translator's face.
Zhang Yun watched the two chatting so happily, picked up a token on the table and hit the translator: "You don't translate for me quickly, you're addicted to chatting with him, right?" ”
The translator touched his head and smirked, then arched his hand at Zhang Yunyi, and said: "Congratulations to Hou Ye, congratulations to Hou Ye, they said that they were willing to take out 200,000 taels of silver, plus a city to give to Hou Ye, I hope Hou Ye will not fight to the east." ”
"That's a little little, right? 200,000 taels of silver, a city, really send me away as a flower? Zhang Yun shook his head again and again.
"Isn't there another delicate beauty? That's the little princess of the Kobayakawa family, and they are willing to give it to the Hou Ye......"
Zhang Yun glanced up at Xu Xi behind him, and saw that her pretty face was cold, if it weren't for the scruples that someone else would have had a seizure here.
"Ahem...... Get out, get out of here, you tell him to get back for me. Zhang Yun saw that Xu Xi was on the verge of going berserk, and hurriedly dispersed everyone.
Everyone in the tent was puzzled, thinking that Zhang Yun couldn't wipe his face away, so he pretended to be angry.
"Roll !!" Seeing that everyone didn't move, Zhang Yun roared again.
At this moment, several people hurried out of the tent like frightened rabbits.
"If you dare to touch that little girl, don't even think about touching me in the future." Xu Xi spat out a sentence coldly.
"Don't dare, don't dare." Zhang Yun shook his head again and again, then hugged Xu Xi from behind and said good words in her ear for a long time, which calmed her down.
The girl just now was no more than fourteen or fifteen years old, she was a little Lori, and Zhang Yun was not interested in this kind of girl in the slightest. Besides, if the Kobayakawa family wants to exchange a woman for a reduction, it will be too easy.
That night, Zhang Yun also said his bottom line, 400,000 taels of silver, 20,000 stone of grain, plus a city.
Kobayakawa Tomohide thought that Zhang Yun liked more mature women and wanted to change a few more women for him to pay off his debts, but Zhang Yun sternly refused.
"If I break through your city, and the women in it are all mine, why should I need you to send them?"
After Jisoo heard this, he hurriedly returned and reported to the young master and his wife, but he left Hexiang here.
