Chapter 370: The Ming Army Was Counter-Surrounded by the Japanese Army?!
Hongwu Daming, drunken immortal building.
In the sky above the main hall, the pictures in these five light curtains are all changing rapidly, and it is obvious that the time flow of Longqing Daming has been accelerated again.
Clearly visible.
Since the army landed on Wajima, the Fifth Route Army has basically not encountered any decent resistance during the march, and it can be described as 'sweeping'.
But as long as the Ming army passed, these Wadao said that either they directly chose to surrender, or they could not fight the battle within an hour at most.
One of the more spectacular things is that there are often rows of samurai sitting on the top of the castle.
Whenever this time, the Ming army is in piles of three or two to watch the excitement.
Don't want money acrobatics, don't look at nothing.
"It's weird."
Then.
Jianwen Zhu Laosi looked at these five light curtains, frowned, and said loudly.
"The army of Wajima is indeed deliberately avoiding war, this is to preserve its own strength, and at the same time want to lose our army on the island, and now our army's battle line is lengthened, and the supply speed is also slowing down."
"But why is our army deliberately avoiding war?"
The voice fell.
Everyone was stunned, they hadn't thought about the problem from this angle, and subconsciously looked at these five light curtains, and after looking at them for a few minutes (several hours had passed in Longqing Daming), they all frowned.
Because they found that what Jianwen Zhu Laosi just said about deliberately avoiding the war was indeed true.
After the Fifth Route Army landed on Wa Island, although it looked fierce on the surface, in fact, the Five Route Army was also deliberately avoiding the war, and one of them can be clearly judged that this is that it is clear that Xu Da's army can attack the main force of the nearby Japanese army, but Xu Da just pretended to be blind and did not see it, and marched in the opposite direction.
"This Wang Yangming is secretly calculating something."
Yongle old Zhu Di stroked his goat whiskers, he recalled the previous world battles of the Jiajing Dynasty, and seemed to see some similarities in them.
When it was discovered that the army had begun to take an unusual path, it was a little incomprehensible, and the first thing that came to mind was that Wang Yangming must be doing some new tricks, which has become the consensus of everyone.
Not only Yongle Lao Zhu Di, but also every great prince under this podium, even Lao Zhu, all have this idea.
After several times, in the face of the abnormal operation of the army this time, they didn't have too many expressions, and they were all used to it.
The ones who should panic the most now are the eight Ga on the island of Longqing Time and Space.
The podium lesson plan is a chair.
Ji Boying drank tea and calmly looked at the changes in the five light curtains.
'Accelerate. ’
The word mind.
Instantly.
The speed of the picture change of these five light curtains suddenly doubled.
When the picture in the light curtain slows down again.
Within a few minutes, Wuzong Zhu Houzhao's voice sounded.
"Look! The Japanese army has begun to counterattack! ”
Sure enough.
Judging from this light curtain alone, the Japanese army, which was originally facing the Ming army and just blindly avoiding the war, has begun to redeploy troops at this time, and the original defensive posture has changed, no longer blindly defending, but becoming an active attack.
Moreover.
Judging by the whole big war situation.
At present, the soldiers of the Japanese army turned out to be in a ring state, and carried out a counter-encirclement of the Ming Five-way Army, and it seems that the encirclement is about to be formed.
This trick is really the opposite.
However, the princes of the Great Tomorrow in this Drunken Immortal Mansion still did not have the slightest change in their expressions, they knew very well that Wang Yangming's methods might be completely reversed in a moment.
………………
Longqing Daming, Wajima Kyoto.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who had just walked out of the emperor's palace, had a straight waist, and the eyes of the superior scanned the large number of younger brothers in front of him, and the younger brothers had been waiting outside this palace for a long time, and when they saw Toyotomi Hideyoshi stepping out of the palace, they all knelt down to pay respects.
One shouted louder than the other, and it seemed that the louder he shouted, the more faithful he was.
"Meet Guan Bai!"
"Congratulations to Guan Bai!"
“…………”
Just before a stick of incense.
The Emperor in the Imperial Palace had already issued a proclamation to the entire Wajima, appointing Hideyoshi Hashiba as the Minister of Sekihaku and Imperial Politics, in charge of all important military and political affairs of Japan, and giving him the surname Toyotomi.
The so-called Sekihaku of the Wakoku is actually equivalent to the prime minister of the upper state, plus a minister of the Imperial Government, and from the legal point of view of the organizational structure of Wajima, the current Toyotomi Hideyoshi is already the first person under the emperor in fact.
Of course.
In terms of the power structure of the Wa Kingdom, Toyotomi Hideyoshi was already the first person.
And why didn't Toyotomi Hideyoshi open his own shogunate and not be called the general of Seiyi.
This is also the side that makes Toyotomi Hideyoshi very helpless, no matter how monstrous the power in his hands is now, some factual problems just can't be changed.
For example, bloodlines.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi was born in poverty, had a low bloodline, and was not a nobleman.
In the Wa Kingdom, the shogunate of all dynasties and the generals of the Shogunate were all nobles.
If Toyotomi Hideyoshi chooses to open the shogunate, then with his lineage, it will definitely cause ridicule, and even the daimyo who have already submitted to it in various places will rebel again.
A very simple example, if it is equivalent to the Qin and Han dynasties.
Liu Bang took the lead in becoming emperor, and with his bloodline and background, the people of the world, especially those nobles, would not be willing to submit, thanks to Xiang Yu who built a buffer in the middle.
"Lord Guan Bai, all the armies are in place."
"Ikeda is on the front line, marching according to the plans of the adults."
At the moment, one of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's two major cronies, Niwa Nagahide stood in front of everyone with a smile.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi looked at Niwa Nagahide, this face that was always flat, at this time finally showed a smile, looking up at the sky, the warm sun was shining, just like his mood at the moment, it can be described as extremely comfortable.
From a poor boy to Guan Bai, who has become above 10,000 people, he has finally reached the pinnacle of life.
Taking advantage of this attack by the Ming army, Toyotomi Hideyoshi completely completed a gorgeous transformation of his own life, shortening what would have taken at least five years to complete in just one month.
He first used the Ming Kingdom as an excuse to attack him, and forcefully killed Shibata Katsuya and Tokugawa Ieyasu, and attacked the fiefdom of the two clans, unifying all the forces within the Oda family.
Then, in the name of the emperor, the edict ordered the daimyo from all over the world to come to Beijing to meet and discuss the strategy of defending against the enemy Ming Kingdom.
As soon as these daimyo entered Kyoto, they were all placed under house arrest without the slightest interrogation process, and their fiefdoms were quickly annexed by Toyotomi Hideyoshi.
The remaining big village chiefs in various places, seeing that the situation had reached such a situation, and considering that with their own strength, they could not resist the surging Ming army at all, they all surrendered.
Since then.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi quickly unified Wajima in just one month, and completely broke away from the name of the Oda family, and became the emperor's appointed Sekihaku, both on the surface and in reality, he became the first person in Wajima.
Let the Toyotomi clan become the fifth largest clan after the four major clans of "Fujiwara clan", "Genji", "Taira clan", and "Tachibana clan".
This kind of wisdom and courage that can turn pressure into motivation can be said to be difficult to find in hundreds of years, except for his identity as Yaga, this Toyotomi Hideyoshi is indeed a rare talent in terms of personal talent.
"The Ming Kingdom will come to attack from the sea, there will be a feeling of fatigue and discomfort, and during this time, it is even more singing all the way, it is inevitable that there will be a sense of underestimating the enemy, you tell Ikeda Hengxing, let him follow the plan, first give the Ming army sweetness, and introduce them to the grave we dug for them in advance."
"Remember."
"This is Japan, it's our territory, and our greatest strength is our understanding of the terrain."
Toyotomi Hideyoshi smiled, his eyes full of confidence.
In the war, he asked himself who he had never been afraid of.
What about Da Ming?!
Gan!
He remembered that he had killed Akechi Mitsuhide in two hours because he had relied on his full knowledge of the terrain.
In Toyotomi Hideyoshi's view, fighting a war is a very simple thing, as long as the terrain occupies a sufficient advantage, as long as the timing of the troops is appropriate, even if there is a huge disparity in troops, it can still achieve a big victory, which is the way of the art of war that he has summed up over the years.
This is also why, in the original historical trajectory, Toyotomi Hideyoshi planned to conquer the land of Korea first, and then enter the Ming Dynasty, that is, because Toyotomi Hideyoshi took a fancy to the topography of the Korean Peninsula and his vision was ahead of his time.
"Yes."
Niwa Nagahide nodded.
Originally, this Danyu Nagahide and Ikeda Hengxing were both Oda Nobunaga's cronies, Niwa Nagahide's wife was still Oda Nobunaga's righteous daughter, and she was half of Oda Nobunaga's son-in-law, and Ikeda Hengxing was even more powerful, which was the younger daughter-in-law of Oda Nobunaga who directly married Oda Nobunaga and became a widow, and after successfully transforming into a pick-up man, Ikeda-kun also successfully became Oda Nobunaga's first confidant.
If you really want to count the status, Toyotomi Hideyoshi has to hover behind him.
When Oda Nobunaga was killed, Niwa Nagahide, Ikeda Tsuneko, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Shibata Katsuo held a meeting to decide who would be the boss of the Oda family.
Both of them chose to honor Toyotomi Hideyoshi, nothing more than to take a fancy to Toyotomi Hideyoshi's potential, and now it seems that they feel that their eyes are not wrong.
"Ming Guo dares to enter my great Japan this time."
"This is white, it must be called it, there is no return."
Toyotomi Hideyoshi grinned, with pride in his eyes.
"After the defeat of the Ming army, the Ming country must be in a state of military emptiness, you start to prepare for the crossing of the war ships, grain and grass, equipment and other military resources, once our army annihilates the Ming army on the frontal battlefield, our army will take advantage of the situation to kill North Korea, after taking North Korea, and then attack the Ming mainland."
When Toyotomi Hideyoshi became Sekihaku, when he became the absolute first person on Wajima, when he had an army of up to one million in his hands, all the rebelliousness and ambition that he had suppressed in his heart over the years came to his heart in an instant.
On the question of the Wajima army.
Because of some banterizing factors, in the eyes of many people, the Warring States of the island country is a small fight and belongs to a village-level armed fight, and this understanding is actually not wrong.
Especially during the most chaotic period of the Warring States period, Wajima was such a big place, and it was divided into hundreds of countries at most, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a village chief to establish a country by simply occupying a city.
Wars between small villages are indeed like fights, and hundreds of people, thousands, or even dozens of people often fight.
But.
By the end of the Warring States period, these chaotic small countries were gradually annexed, and super large village chiefs appeared in various places, and Oda Nobunaga was one of them.
And the war between these big village chiefs is no longer a village-level fight, at least in terms of numbers and tragedy, it is no less than the fighting on the other side of the mainland.
250,000 people were invested in the Battle of Imjin, 150,000 people participated in the Battle of Sekigahara, etc., and the magnitude of these wars has reached hundreds of thousands, and the young and middle-aged people in the entire Wajima Island, but all the men who can move, one is counted as one, and basically they have joined the army, and the number of soldiers is as high as one million.
"Yes."
Niwa Nagahide did not hesitate at all in the face of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's words, without the slightest doubt, it seems that in Niwa Nagahide's view, as long as the words come out of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's mouth, they will definitely become reality.
Then.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi's gaze swept over the group of younger brothers who came to greet him in front of the Emperor's Palace, with a look of pride in his eyes, and a deep voice came out of his throat.
"Remember."
"Our goal is not only to unify Japan, but to create a sea of stars."
"The first step is the Ming Kingdom on the other side!"
Two sentences out.
The younger brothers all listened directly to the spot and were excited, and they were quacked by Toyotomi Hideyoshi's chicken blood.
And at the same time.
The west gate of Kyoto, Wajima, and the soldiers of Wajima who were guarding the castle tower were bored.
Suddenly, an exclamation arose from the top of the watchtower.
"敵襲です!"
"敵襲です!"
“…………”
Those who hear the sound look subconsciously.
I saw the soldier who shouted for the enemy's attack, and he was just halfway down the stairs.
Shout~!
The sound exploded.
An arrow pierced through its left temple and out of its right temple, nailing it to the tower.
The other eight Ga were stunned, and subconsciously looked into the distance, only to see the land on the horizon, with dense human heads coming into view, and at the same time, there was a thunderous sound of horses' hooves galloping.
Toyota Hideyoshi would never have thought that his proud understanding of the terrain was actually in the eyes of the Ming army.
The land of Wadao has been plowed more than ten times by the Ming army in the early and middle Ming Dynasty, and the terrain of this Wadao Island, even if it is a secret passage that the Wa army itself does not know, is clearly marked on the march map of the Ming army.
