After deciding on a plan, Tang He immediately sent a fast horse to investigate this Nagawa pontoon.

Later, after some rest, the Ming army began to pull out the camp and march towards Fei.

The 100,000 soldiers and horses of the Ming army, except for the 10,000 left behind on the ship, the other 90,000 troops have entered the territory of Feiqian in a mighty way.

Matsuura Castle,The guardian daimyo stationed here is the Shaoji clan.,The Shaoji clan is different from the ordinary small lord of Sokoka.,They have a long heritage.,Since the Kamakura shogunate period, they have been one of the overlords of Kyushu.,The current Hizen is occupied by them.。

They got the news when the Ming army arrived on Zhijia Island before, but the current head of the Shao Er clan, Shao Er Puteng, did not immediately send troops to stop the attack, but disappeared after leaving the city with half of the generals, leaving only one of his fifteen or sixteen-year-old grandsons in the city to guard.

Shaoer Puyi knelt on the mat, wearing a bright and noble samurai uniform, carrying a waist knife at his waist, and his posture was tall at a young age, with resolute eyes.

The general of the Shao Er clan, Ping Jinglong, is reporting the news to him: "Young Master, my subordinates have found out that the Ming army has landed on the south bank of Songpu and is coming in the direction of Songpu. ”

After hearing this, Shaoer Puyi was not only not worried, but was overjoyed, and his eyes were bright: "It's great!" Hurry up and gather the warriors of the clan and follow me out of the city to meet the attack! ”

"Huh?" Ping Jinglong was stunned, and hurriedly persuaded: "No, young master, the lord ordered when he left, we just need to hold on to Songpu City, the Ming army is strong, we can't get out of the city!" ”

Shaoer Puten took away most of the soldiers and horses, and now they only have more than 10,000 people in their hands, and it is okay to defend the city, and when they go out of the city, they will hit the stone with an egg!

However, Shaoer Puyi didn't listen, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, advocating the spirit of bushido, and now that the enemies are coming to the door, how can he hide in the city as a turtle with a shrunken head!

"The enemy has all been attacked, how can the warriors of my Yamato clan avoid fighting without fighting?" Shao Er's awe-inspiring Tao of universal righteousness.

"This ......"

Ping Jinglong was a little speechless for a while.

It's true that the spirit of bushido teaches people to be loyal and brave, but that's politically correct, fooling the low-level samurai, and they, the powerful, will not go up to die knowing that they are invincible.

But there are exceptions to everything, just like this young two Puyi in front of him, although he is also a powerful person, but he is convinced of the spirit of bushido, and regards loyalty and honor as life!

Of course, this is also because he is young and vigorous and has not experienced the lessons of reality, otherwise he would definitely not be so naïve.

Ping Jinglong explained with a look of embarrassment: "Young master, this matter is ...... him"

"That's it! Needless to say, immediately gather people to follow me out of the city to meet the Ming army! ”

Shaoji Puyi interrupted Ping Jinglong's words, got up and left.

Ping Jinglong hurriedly followed and chased after him, and persuaded him bitterly as he walked, but Shaoer Puyi looked like he "didn't listen to Wang Ba's recitation", and ignored it at all, and in the end, Ping Jinglong couldn't persuade the young master.

Here, the Ming army marched, dusty, banners covered the sun, and arrived near Songpu City after half a day's effort.

At this moment, the scout suddenly came to report: "Report, General, there is an enemy attack ahead!" ”

Tang He's face changed suddenly when he heard this, and he hurriedly ordered in a loud voice: "Order the whole army to line up and prepare to meet the enemy!" ”

"Yes!"

When the military order was issued, the army moved quickly, but it was not easy for tens of thousands of troops to suddenly stop from the marching state and adjust their formation.

Li Wei also got the news here, and then ordered his subordinates to line up the musket array and set up the cannons. Then he came to the front of the battle and joined Tang and Hu Hai.

"General, how many enemy troops are there in front?" Hu Hai asked hurriedly.

Tang He glanced at the two of them and replied, "The preliminary estimate should be about 10,000 people." ”

When Li Wei and Hu Hai heard this, their nervous expressions relaxed.

With only 10,000 people, even if they rush to the battle, it is not a big problem.

"In that case, the last general is willing to be the vanguard!" Hu Hai immediately bowed his hand forward.

Tang He was about to agree, but Li Wei hurriedly interrupted: "I'll do this battle, my cannon is already impatient!" ”

If it's the other enemies, forget it, he has to do it himself!

Hu Hai glanced at him, then put down his hand and retreated.

Tang He looked at the two of them, didn't get entangled, and said directly: "Okay, then Jiang Duhou will be the vanguard for this battle!" ”

Li Wei nodded, and immediately asked the soldiers around him to give orders to adjust the formation.

In front of the Ming army, Shaoer Puyi took the lead, and Ping Jinglong followed closely with a bitter face, leading tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to rush over.

As the distance narrowed, they gradually saw the situation of the Ming army, and Ping Jinglong was overjoyed when he saw that the Ming army was still in a hurry at this time, and it was chaotic.

"Great, young master, the Ming army has not yet gained a stable foothold, we will lead the fast cavalry to rush up at this time, and we will definitely be able to inflict heavy losses on it!" Ping Jinglong shouted hurriedly.

They will definitely not be able to defeat this little bit of men, but if they can take advantage of the enemy's unstable foothold and rush to kill and retreat, it can be regarded as a big victory.

However, when Shaoer Puyi heard this, he reined in the reins of his horse and shouted: "Stop! ”

Hearing his order, the army quickly slowed down from a state of madness, and stopped after a moment.

"Young master, why do you want to stop?" Hirakyo Takashi was stunned.

Shao Er Puyi said: "No! We are glorious samurai, how can we take advantage of the danger of others? ”

When Ping Jinglong heard this, the whole person was stunned! Scold the idiot in my heart!

This young second Puyi usually only knows how to practice martial arts, and has never led soldiers, and he didn't expect this person to be such an idiot!

"This is a war, young master, soldiers are not tired of cheating!" Heikyo Takashi was angry and ruined.

Shao Er Puyi frowned slightly, and said unhappily: "That's just an excuse for the weak, as warriors, we must defeat the enemy openly even on the battlefield!" ”

"I*&*¥#@......" Pingjing gritted his teeth angrily and scolded angrily in his heart.

But the Wa Kingdom has a clear hierarchy, the name is the master, and the master's words are everything, and he can't disobey, so he can only watch the great opportunity slip away.

"Huh? How did they stop? ”

Here in the Ming army, Tang He and the others saw that the Japanese suddenly stopped, and suddenly sighed.

Li Wei and Hu Hai were also a little puzzled, and watched the army of Japanese people closely, beware of any conspiracy they had.

However, as time passed, they gradually discovered that these Japanese people really just stopped there, as if the two armies had set up a posture before facing each other.

After some tense arrangement, the Ming army quickly formed a strict military formation, and at this time, even if there was any conspiracy on the other side, they were not afraid.

Lu Tang led the people to line up in front of the battle, and Li Wei commanded behind them, and after they were all ready, the Japanese army on the opposite side made another move.

"Shoot the arrows!" Shao Er Puyi ordered.

According to the rules of their Japanese people, the two armies faced each other, and the sound of arrows was used as a signal to start a war, which was called "Yahe", which meant to tell the other side that the battle was going to begin.

Ping Jinglong was already too lazy to take care of this second goods, and at this time he was thinking about how to escape back to the city with this idiot after the rout.

With a whoosh, an arrow shot out and exploded in the air.

Li Wei and the others were stunned when they heard this, and asked Lu Tang, "What are they doing here?" ”

Lu Tang frowned, he didn't know what this meant, but the Qianhu who was transferred from the coastal guard next to him was more familiar with the Japanese people, and explained it to them:

"I've heard that the Japanese call this kind of arrow Yahe, which means that war can be started."

Li Wei couldn't help but sneer when he heard this: "Do you need to talk about going to war? Isn't this stupid? ”

"Hahaha......"

His soldiers also laughed.

After laughing, Li Wei's face became serious, and he said: "Since everyone has fired arrows, we have to give someone back, but we don't have arrows, so we can only use cannons, Lu Tang, let go of cannons!" ”

"Yes!"

Lu Tang received the order and commanded the artillery to prepare, and as the order flag was waved, the rumbling cannon sounded, which was much louder than the arrow of Shaoer Puyi!

As soon as the cannon sounded, the Japanese soldiers here immediately panicked, and the horses neighed when they were frightened.

The next moment, the cannonballs flew quickly, and the terrifying power directly cut a line of blood among the Japanese soldiers, and the Japanese people who were hit by the cannonballs were either torn apart, or had broken arms and legs.

Shaoer Puyi barely stabilized his war horse, and when he saw this scene, his eyes suddenly cracked: "Baga! The Ming people don't talk about martial arts! ”

Ping Jinglong was also shocked at this time, they were still two miles away from the Ming army, such a long distance, the bow and arrow would definitely not be able to shoot, but the opponent's artillery had already hit, and the power was so terrifying.

"Give me all the rush! Kill these despicable Mingren! ”

Shao Er Puyi roared and was about to rush forward, but Ping Jinglong hurriedly stopped: "Young master, don't!" The Ming army has such a sharp weapon, we are not opponents at all, so let's hurry back to the city to hide! ”

"No, I will never retreat, rush!" Shao Er Puyi is worthy of the name of a samurai, leading the way, and being unmatched!

The roaring cannons rang out one after another, and the Japanese soldiers were killed and wounded countless before they could get close.

Heikyo Takashi trembled in his heart when he heard the continuous sound of cannons, but the other ordinary samurai were very heroic, and they rushed forward under the leadership of Shaoji Puyi. (End of chapter)
