Yongren was busy all day, and he only felt that he had arranged it properly, and he could only enlarge the Ming army into the encirclement when the armies were in place. Yongren was in a good mood, temporarily put aside military affairs, came to the backyard of the palace, and saw the concubines sitting under the cherry blossom trees laughing constantly, and couldn't help but walk up. When all the concubines saw Yongren coming, they were all overjoyed, and they all knelt down to meet them. Yong-in sat down, smiled and asked, "What are you talking about?" ”

The concubines came to Yongren's side, and a particularly beautiful concubine said, "We're talking about cherry blossom viewing, every spring, the cherry blossoms in Kyoto are the most beautiful, I really want to see them!" Lingering under the cherry blossom trees is a wonderful thing! ”

Yong Ren smiled, "When the time comes, I will accompany you to enjoy the cherry blossoms and drink sake." ”

All the concubines were happy, but then their happy expressions dimmed, and the particularly beautiful concubine said: "I'm afraid this year's cherry blossoms can't be seen!" Your Highness wants to stay to deal with the Han people, and we must also stay with Your Highness! The other concubines all nodded.

Yongren couldn't help but be a little moved, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, we will be able to deal with the Han people soon, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom in March, and there is enough time!" When the concubines heard this, they were very happy.

Yong Hito reclined on the edge of the pond, drinking sake one by one, while two concubines knelt beside him with bottles in their hands, while the other concubines danced to the accompaniment of Toei's unique music. Dongying dance, using folding fans and other objects as props, the dance posture is very different from other ethnic groups, there is no other ethnic dance that dynamic and delicate and graceful dancing, the rhythm seems to be very, but the slowness has a strange beauty, and it is also particularly attractive. Yong in enjoys Ai Ji's dance while drinking, and everyone gets drunk without getting drunk.

At this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly came, and he came to Yongren's side, and said urgently: "Your Highness! ”

Yongren turned his head, opened his drunken eyes, and saw that it was his cronies and senior samurai Ono Chi, and said with a smile: "It's Ohno-kun, come and come, come and drink a glass of sake with me." Although this Kumamoto sake is not as soft and long as Kyoto's sake, it has a spicy taste! I love it, it's like the blood of our warriors! ”

Ohno Zhi hurriedly said: "Your Highness, there has just been a military report that the mouth of the Great Arrow Sea has been lost!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the scene immediately fell silent, Yong Ren was stunned, the music and dancing also stopped, and all the concubines showed very frightened expressions. Yongren's face changed, and he glared and shouted: "This is impossible, absolutely impossible!" With the terrain of Daya Haikou and dozens of cannons, how could the Ming army be able to attack it without ten days and a half months! It's absolutely impossible! Ohno said urgently: "This is absolutely true! The samurai and ashigaru who fled back from the Oya Haikou said that the army we sent to support the Oya Haikou has also been withdrawn, and the Ming army captured the Oya Haikou in just half a day! ”

Yongren, who has always been very calm and full of confidence, can't help but panic. The offensive of the Ming army far exceeded his imagination, although he knew that the Ming army was strong in combat and had superb tactics, but he could not have imagined that the easy to defend and difficult to attack Daya Haikou would be broken in just half a day!? He couldn't help but wonder if the Ming Army was all the demon army of the eight-pronged snake!? I can't help but wonder if I'm having a nightmare!? As soon as I thought of this, I couldn't help but reach out and pat my head, the whole person was a lot more sober, but the scene in front of me did not change in the slightest, obviously everything just now was true!

Yongren is not a mediocre person who easily admits defeat, and after a short period of panic, he settled down and thought: "The mouth of the Great Arrow Sea has been lost, and the original plan can no longer be carried out!" However, the overall situation has not changed, and the original plan only needs to be slightly adjusted! After the Ming army broke through the mouth of the Great Arrow, it would definitely concentrate its forces on attacking Kumamoto. I just used the strong city walls of Kumamoto and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to firmly contain the Ming army here, and when the armies from all walks of life converged and recaptured the mouth of the Great Arrow Sea with lightning speed, then the situation of closing the door and fighting the dog can still be formed! ’

As soon as Yongren thought of this, he couldn't help but smile confidently, and immediately said to Ohnoto: "Ohno-kun, you immediately lead an army of five thousand to the shore to support Tatsumoto Taro, I am giving you fifty cannons, you must guard the shore for me!" As long as you can hold out for more than ten days, our army will win! "Hey!" Ohno answered and prepared to leave.

Yong-in suddenly remembered something and hurriedly shouted; "Wait a minute!" Ono stopped and waited for Yuhito's orders.

Yonghito stood up, walked up to Ono Tomo, frowned and asked, "How did Daya Haikou fall over?" I don't believe that the Ming Army is really that powerful! ”

Ohno Tomo said: "According to the retreating samurai, it is because the range of the artillery of the Ming army is much longer than ours, and they bombard our positions indiscriminately, but we can't hit them at all!" After several rounds of heavy artillery fire, our army has suffered heavy casualties, and the fence and other defensive facilities such as horse rejection have been almost completely destroyed, and the elite of the Ming Dynasty took the opportunity to attack, although our army tried its best but could not resist! ”

When Yong Ren heard this, he was a little surprised, but his worries were put down. He believed that the Ming army had achieved such a victory entirely by sharp artillery, and there was nothing particularly remarkable about it. Then he frowned and muttered, "We must find a way to offset the advantage of Da Ming's artillery fire!" Then he thought of the trenches, and immediately ordered his concubine to bring a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and explained to Ono Chi while drawing on the white paper with a brush, and Ono quickly understood. Immediately, Yonghito explained Daming's bunker while drawing, and Ono quickly figured it out. Yonghito explained carefully again, and handed the schematic diagram with trenches and artillery bunkers to Ono Tomo, who took the schematic diagram with both hands and left in a hurry.

Yong Ren frowned and muttered, "Da Ming's artillery is actually so much stronger than ours!" Why can't our craftsmen improve the artillery?! "It turns out that for a long time, Yong Ren has been trying to improve the artillery, and he also put forward a lot of advanced concepts, but the craftsmen of the Wa Kingdom continue to try to produce the artillery in the process of experiments, but the accident of the explosion has continued to occur, to this day, the explosion of the chamber has occurred dozens of major accidents, the death of more than 100 craftsmen, but the improved artillery has never appeared.

In fact, there is nothing strange about this situation, in the Middle Ages more than 1,000 years ago, although the craftsmen of the Wa people developed the sophisticated technology of casting samurai swords by stealing the casting technology of the Tang swords, but in other aspects it can not be compared with the Central Plains at that time, if you must compare, the Wa Kingdom is at least a few hundred years behind the Song Dynasty, which is why the Song Dynasty is so weak, and the Wa people are still so yearning for the Central Plains.

In the early hours of the morning, the alarm came that the sentinel ship had discovered that the huge fleet of Daming was crossing the Ariake Sea and heading straight for Kumamoto. Yuhito immediately climbed to the highest point of Kumamoto Palace and looked to the west. Although Kumamoto is not on the seaside, the distance is more than ten or twenty miles, but at this time, the sky is clear, standing on a high place and looking out, you can clearly see the vast sea to the west and the fortifications by the sea, and those busy samurai and ashigaru can only see countless black spots, feeling like thousands of ants.

A moment later, countless black spots appeared on the sea surface in the distance, and Yongren's heart was shocked, knowing that those dense black spots on the sea must be Daming's fleet.

The Daming fleet formed a huge geese flying formation and headed for the east coast. Rapid sirens sounded on the east bank, the Japanese samurai shouted again and again, and the various teams rushed into the position one after another, and the atmosphere was very tense.

Taro Tatsumoto climbed to the top of the fortifications and looked out to sea, his eyes shining with excitement, and muttered; "Come on! I want you Han people to see the martial arts of our Yamato warriors! There were many others who were as excited as he was, and a beastly blood boiled in everyone's chest.

The fortifications built by the Wa people on the east bank are very different from the ancient fortifications in the traditional sense. Under the influence of Yongren, the Japanese urgently built this fortification in a few days, similar to the coastal fortifications of World War I and World War II. The stretch of trenches, the dense rejection of horses outside the trenches, the Tibetan military posts distributed along the trenches at intervals, and the cannonball bunkers with roofs.

Taro Taro Ryumoto said to Tomo Ohno next to him: "Ohno-kun, the enemy will attack soon, let those farmers and fishermen leave, don't get in the way here!" In order to build a coastal defense line in a short period of time, the Japanese temporarily forcibly recruited a large number of Japanese people nearby, and most of the work of this fortification was completed by these people. Ohno Tomoshi answered and ran down, and the Japanese samurai and Ashigaru rudely drove away the Japanese people. There was an uproar on the defensive position, and the farmers and fishermen fled from the defensive position in panic.

Yang Peng stood on the flagship building, looking at the Japanese position in the distance. I couldn't help but feel a little surprised to see that the positions built by the Japanese actually looked like the fortifications of World War I and World War II.

The huge fleet approached and came to a halt six hundred paces from the shore. The Daming cruiser took two hundred steps forward, and then turned sideways and lined up. All kinds of orders are constantly being conveyed. Immediately, a huge roar resounded on the sea, and thick smoke was seen, and shells rained down on the Japanese positions on the coast, making a sharp whistling sound. There was a panicked shout on the Japanese position, and the Japanese samurai and ashigaru hid in the trenches and Tibetan military posts one after another, and almost at the same time, a loud rumbling sound came from the Japanese position, dust and smoke and fireworks rolled, and the horse-repellent picket was thrown high into the sky by a huge force, and the entire Japanese position seemed to be boiling!

While the Ming artillery fire was frantically ravaging the opponent, the Ming assault troops were waiting in the ship for the assault order to be issued. A soldier smiled and said to the soldier next to him; "Brother, this kind of war is really boring, the artillery fire has already crushed the enemy army, let's go up just to clean up the mess!" The soldier next to him laughed, "Isn't that bad?" Although we are not afraid of death, it is not good to be able to not die! The soldier raised his eyebrows and said, "I am willing to die on the battlefield and be buried in the Hall of Loyal Souls, I am willing to die on the battlefield if I can have such glory!" Another soldier laughed and said, "It's fun to live and win glory!" ”

Just then, the captain came in and said loudly: "Attention everyone, the artillery attack will soon be over, everyone check their armor and weapons!" Don't give Lao Tzu a situation when attacking, otherwise Lao Tzu will definitely kick your eggs! The sergeants laughed and checked their armor and weapons. The equipment of the Ming army was completely different from that of other armies, the soldiers were almost all heavily armoured, and the weapons were more than the same, like the soldiers on this boat, their main equipment was an iron shield in their left hand, a short spear in their right hand, and they were also equipped with daggers and crossbows, when necessary, they stuck their iron shields in the ground to form a barrier, and used crossbows to attack the enemy. Several of these soldiers were also armed with primitive grenades, thunderbolts, which could bombard enemies at close range. In ancient times, there should have been no more well-equipped army than them, so to speak, armed to the teeth!

The rumbling of cannon overhead gradually calmed down, and then the soldiers in the cabin felt the ship suddenly move under their feet. The sergeants knew that the boat had begun to charge, and they couldn't help but get excited. Twenty warships carrying 2,000 commandos rushed towards the enemy's position in two groups, the left and right.

Ono rushed to the artillery position and shouted: "The enemy is coming, ready to shoot!" "The gunner immediately pushed the gun out of cover and onto the firing platform. The artillery of the Japanese was thick and short, and it was impossible to shoot inside the bunker, and it was necessary to push it onto a platform with a good view to effectively fire at the sea. Artillery pieces came out of the bunkers, and the gunners were busy reloading gunpowder projectiles, adjusting the angle of fire and preparing for firing.

Suddenly, Ohno saw a thick smoke billowing on the sea, and then a huge thunderous sound came like a tsunami, Ohno's face changed, and he hurriedly rolled and crawled towards the artillery bunker. Almost at the same time, countless black projectiles rained down, and the scene was dusty, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and then, a violent explosion sounded, the flames on the artillery position rolled, and the stumps and fragments flew all over the sky, and in the chaos, mixed with heart-rending screams!

It turned out that as soon as Yang Peng saw the enemy's position and fortifications, he guessed the enemy's ground layout, so he deliberately sent an assault force to lure the enemy's ground artillery out of the bunker after the artillery was prepared. At this moment, the Daming cruisers, which had long been ready to attack, opened fire together, and the dense rain of bullets destroyed the enemy's artillery unit almost instantly! However, the artillery fire did not stop there, and round after round of heavy fire continued to sweep through the enemy positions like a tsunami, until the two thousand assault troops approached the shore, and the bombardment stopped.

Just when the Japanese soldiers were dizzy and didn't know where they were, exclamations came one after another: "The enemy is about to land!" The enemy is coming ashore! The Japanese soldiers poked their heads out of the trenches one after another, and saw that the Ming warships were landing one by one. At this time, there were several loud bangs from the artillery position, and several shells flew towards the Ming warship that was landing, most of them fell into the water and stirred up the sky-high water column, and one actually hit the hull of a warship, with a loud bang, and the entire warship was penetrated, but the warship was not affected much, and still headed towards the shore. At this time, the cruisers of the Ming army no longer fired, this era is different from modern times, it is difficult to achieve accurate strikes with artillery fire, and the assault troops have approached the enemy.

Taro Ryumoto was very anxious when he saw more and more Ming troops coming ashore, and immediately ordered two mid-level samurai to lead thousands of low-level samurai and ashigaru to counterattack. He was to drive the enemy army into the sea while they were still on their footing.

The war drums of the Japanese people rang out, and a crazy shout suddenly came from the Japanese position! I saw thousands of Japanese samurai and ashigaru rushing from the position.

Seeing this, the Ming commander immediately raised his voice and shouted: "Form a defensive formation!" ”

More than 100 Ming troops holding shields and short spears immediately rushed forward, stacking their shields layer upon layer to form an arc-shaped fish-scale shield defense line. In an instant, the Japanese rushed up like a tide, brandishing their spears and katanas and slashing wildly at the shield wall, crackling loudly, mixed with the crazy shouts of the Japanese people!

Suddenly, countless short spears pierced out from between the gaps in the shield, and the Japanese people who approached the shield wall screamed and fell to the ground one after another. The Ming commander raised his horizontal knife and shouted: "Rush! ”

The shield defense line was withdrawn, and the hundreds of Yanyun troops standing behind the shield defense line immediately shot with their crossbows, and dense arrows flew all over the sky, like flying locusts, only to see the Japanese samurai and ashigaru screaming and falling to the ground, and the momentum of their charge had completely collapsed! More than 100 soldiers armed with iron shields and short spears rushed into the middle of the Japanese people, the short spears continued to assassinate and raise a rain of blood, and the iron shield continued to smash the flesh and blood of the Japanese people. The Japanese people howled frantically and sacrificed their lives to attack, but their attack hit the body of the Ming warriors, as if they were hitting a boulder, with a sonorous sound and sparks splashing everywhere, but they could hardly hurt the Ming warriors! The battle on the spot was nothing short of a one-sided slaughter! The Japanese finally became frightened and turned around and ran backwards. The Ming army took advantage of the situation to attack the defensive positions of the Japanese people!

When Taro Ryumoto saw the Ming army attacking, he couldn't take care of his own soldiers, so he immediately ordered the archers to shoot. The archers immediately fired their arrows, and the rain of arrows flew over and fell into the crowd. The Japanese samurai and ashigaru who were fleeing back turned on their backs; The Ming sergeant raised his shield, and the arrows crackled and fell on the shield, or hit the armor, which did not cause much damage to the Ming army at all! This round of bow and arrow shooting by the Japanese only shot a lot of their own people!

Taro Taro Ryumoto showed a ruthless look and shouted: "Yamato warriors, pig attack!" ”

Hundreds of Japanese people immediately rushed out of the trenches with gunpowder bags one by one, and rushed towards the Ming army, howling wildly.

The Japanese ashiki rushed into the middle of the Ming army, Yan Yun stabbed with a spear, slashed with a knife, where could the Japanese ashigaru deserve a blow, and they all screamed and fell in a pool of blood. Suddenly there was a boom, and a ball of fireworks rose up in the crowd, and then the boom exploded, and the fireworks rolled, almost submerging the clearing, and in the rolling fireworks, I saw stumps flying all over the sky! The Japanese soldiers on the battlefield shouted excitedly: "Wan Zai! Everyday! ……”

The smoke and dust gradually dissipated, and almost half of the hundreds of assault Japanese ashigaru were killed, and the rest were lying in a pool of blood wailing. And those Yanyun soldiers slowly got up from the ground, and in the end, there were not many who were really killed! It turned out that these Yanyun soldiers were not only wearing heavy armor, but also holding steel shields, and the gunpowder bags of this era were by no means as powerful as gunpowder in the twentieth century, and the power of gunpowder explosions was almost blocked by steel shields and armor, so there were not many deaths!

Seeing that the suicide attack had little effect, the Japanese couldn't help but panic.

The Ming army reorganized and rushed towards the enemy position, and the enemy hurriedly fired arrows, as before, with almost no effect.

Before the Ming army rushed to the trench, more than a dozen soldiers threw thunder into the trench, and the dull explosions sounded one after another, and the smoke and dust billowed in the trench. The Ming army took the opportunity to rush into the trenches, and cut down when they saw a figure in the smoke. The clatter of slashing and slashing rang out, along with a terrible scream.

When the smoke cleared, a post-war corpse pillowed, dripping with blood, and it was full of Japanese corpses. The rest of the Japanese had fled to the trenches behind.

Yang Peng saw that the attack was very smooth and the momentum was like a bamboo, and immediately ordered 5,000 soldiers to attack head-on. Fifty warships carrying 5,000 Ming soldiers chopped through the waves and rushed towards the frontal position of the Japanese people. At this time, the Japanese people had been overwhelmed by the first wave of attack troops of the Ming Dynasty, and they could not care about anything else.

Yong Ren stood at the highest point of the palace, and when he saw the unfavorable battle situation ahead, he couldn't help but be flustered, and his face was cloudy. Da Ming's tactics amazed him, and the powerful combat power of the Ming army made him feel very frightened and puzzled at the same time.

The 5,000 Ming army attacked the Japanese position from the front. The Japanese were already unable to resist, and at this time they were attacked head-on by the 5,000 Ming army, and the entire position was on the verge of collapse.

A group of Japanese people could not resist the onslaught of the Ming army and retreated to a Tibetan military station. A low-ranking samurai shouted, "Get ready! Fight the Han people to the end! All the ashigaru shouted in unison, regaining their fighting spirit.

Suddenly, several round orbs were thrown in through the doorway. The faces of the widows changed dramatically, and they screamed. At this moment, there were several muffled rumbles, smoke and dust billowed in the Tibetan military station, and screams rang out. At this moment, several Daming warriors rushed in and returned to the slash, and the low-level samurai and a few ashigaru crawled out from the other end.

The offensive of the Ming army was wave after wave, and it was extremely fast. The Japanese only felt as if they were facing the most terrible tsunami, and their fighting spirit quickly collapsed. Eventually, the Japanese samurai and ashigaru fled their positions and rushed towards Kumamototomi.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
