Chapter 1368 The Battle of the Foundation
More than 100 warships of the Ming Dynasty were arranged in semi-arc shapes, and they were bombarding wildly at the inner port of the base. Small ships were shuttled through, and the arrows and long bows on them were already full.
This is a plan that the Ming Dynasty had already made. Although I didn't expect that the shogunate army would really come, since it was coming, their reaction was quite quick.
The lights in the base were as bright as daylight, and countless soldiers were shuttled through, and the harsh bells rang throughout Tsushima Island.
At the base landing, thousands of cannons kept flashing, and black shells were so conspicuous in the dark night, falling into the sea.
"Occurrence! Attack!"
Tokugawa Hidehito put aside Matsuhira Nobuzu, yelled fiercely, and pulled the samurai on the ship.
But at this time, who still cared about him, moved the bow one by one, turned his head quickly, and wanted to escape from here.
This is a trap. They cannot fight and can only break away from the encirclement as soon as possible.
Matsuhira Nobuzuki looked indifferent and felt sad. He sat at the bow of the boat, staring at the firelight in the distance, listening to the deafening sound of cannons, his mind roared, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Without his command, the Japanese navy was in chaos and ran around, desperately trying to break out.
This navy was secretly constructed with the help of the Westerners and has been strictly kept confidential and has not been carried out in actual combat.
Many people were shouting to fire artillery and fight with all their might, but the formation had long been chaotic. In addition, the artillery fire of the Ming Dynasty was covered with the Japanese navy, and there was no way to fight back.
Liu Jingming's net was very big, and shelling from all directions enveloped all the Japanese ships. The small ships shuttled back and forth, collecting the fish that might have been close to.
In the dark night, the two navy were almost blindly fighting. The difference was that the artillery fire in the Ming Dynasty was even more fierce and the Japanese fleet was discovered before.
This was a one-sided shelling, and the Japanese navy could only escape in all directions.
On the other side, the artillery array on the shore was constantly scattering shells, and the Japanese troops ships exploded from time to time. Some were shouting for attack and some were shouting for retreat, and the formation was disrupted.
They were just troop transport ships, and they lost the protection of the navy, and they were the meat on the chopping board and could only be slaughtered.
The war continued, and the sound of cannons slowly subsided from late at night to dawn.
Yang Sichang, Cao Bianjiao, He Xilian and others had arrived at the base, stood by the military port, watching the bodies of busy bosses and soldiers who were checking ships.
Zheng Zhilong, Liu Jingming and others successively returned.
"Sir, the Japanese Navy has thirty ships, seven of which have been sunk, captured and searched for 14, and nine more have run away. The navy is currently pursuing it."
"Sir, this time the Japanese ambushed our troop ship, a total of 30,000 people. We captured 12,000 people alive, surrendered 5,000, were bombed and drowned 6,000, three, and nearly seven,000 people ran away or disappeared..."
"Sir, we killed and injured more than 20 people, and more than 20 cannons were blown up, and the others were fine..."
"Sir, the navy is already salvaging the wreck, and it will be cleaned up soon..."
Yang Sichang and others listened, very satisfied, with a smile on their faces.
Not long after, a naval soldier hurried over, knelt on one knee, and reported loudly: "Sir, capture the Tokugawa family's elder Matsuhira Nobusuka alive!"
Yang Sichang's expression moved slightly, knowing that Matsuhira Nobuzu was Tokugawa Iemitsu's confidant, and immediately said, "Take it seriously, no, take good care of it, let him rest for a while, I'll go see him in person later."
"Yes!" said the soldier.
He Xilian listened and hurriedly said, "Sir, the imperial edict and list of the Emperor of Japan will arrive. You can issue a siege order to your own island."
Yang Sichang's eyes flashed slightly and said, "It's not enough. After Dorgon defeated Qingshan Zhongjun and conquered Guanmen Strait, that's a good time!"
He Xilian, Qian Jinxiao and others listened, and Gu Shi nodded silently.
Tadatsuke Aoyama had 20,000 people left, and Shigemasato Ichikura had 50,000, plus 30,000 people from the other side, 80,000 people. These 80,000 are already the last army that the shogunate can send to Kyukuni Island.
If Dorgon could defeat him, the shock to Japan would be absolutely extraordinary. Then, the emperor's imperial edict was issued, plus the list of Emperor Houmizuo, and the Ming Dynasty's siege order would definitely have miraculous results!
Cao Bianjiao turned his head and looked at Yang Sichang and said, "Grandmaster, the King of Tang is here, and the subordinates ask for an order to lead the navy to the Guanmen Strait to help Dorgon break through the Guanmen Strait!"
King Tang was in the Navy for many years. Although he was an vague identity as an "affiliate", he represented the importance of the Ganqing Palace to the Navy and was also the emperor's confidant, silently guarding the Navy.
His arrival may express the dissatisfaction of the Ganqing Palace with the long-standing delay in the war.
Yang Sichang pondered for a moment and said, "Don't go deeper. The strait is so strict that Japan is guarding so strictly. There must be a way to deal with the navy. Just deter it. You can act on the camera."
"The emperor accepts the order!" Cao Bianjiao said.
Matsuhei Nobusuke was crushed to the ashore at this time and came straight to Yang Sichang.
Matsuhira Nobuzu was embarrassed, soaked, with hair loose, and a calm face after despair. He looked at Yang Sichang and the others and said, "I only have one problem."
It is very stiff, but it is a clear expression. It is a film of the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
Yang Sichang looked at him, thought for a while, and said, "My Majesty the Emperor of the Wisdom of the Emperor of the Wisdom: If you want to achieve an unprecedented victory, you must stand high, see far, and walk fast. Only by walking ahead in everything can you be invincible."
Nobuzumatsu looked expressionless and silent for a moment, saying, "Are you referring to a firearm?"
Yang Sichang smiled on his face, not the ridicule of the winner in the face of the loser, but a kind of reverence, saying: "You understand one-sidedly, firearms are just one aspect. This war is also the case. Your Majesty had long expected you to attack."
Matsuhira Nobuka showed a strange look, then shook his head slightly and said, "Since you refuse to say it, I don't ask, what are you going to deal with me?"
Yang Sichang looked at him and said, "You could have chosen to die by yourself, why didn't you die?"
Matsukai Nobuka didn't say anything, looked at Yang Sichang seriously, and turned around and left.
Yang Sichang looked at his back and said to himself: "This person may be of great use in the future."
Qian Jin Xiaodao: "I have something to do with you, so I refuse to die. I should be able to use it for me."
On the side of Tsushima, the Ming Dynasty won a great victory and built a mae vassal. Tadatsushi Aoyama from Hirado Castle was always looking at the direction of Tsushima.
Looking at Tsushima, which seemed to be calm, the sky gradually brightened, his cold face was like cast iron, and his eyes were cold.
If Matsuhira Nobusuo succeeded, it would never be so quiet. The faint sound of cannons last night was not like Western artillery guns.
As a long-time general on the battlefield, Tadatsushi Aoyama instinctively guessed a possibility. But he was unwilling to believe it, nor could he believe it. This was the key to the Japanese Jedi attack, turning defeat into victory.
If it fails, Japan will be completely passive and will fall into a hard battle, and the victory or defeat will be unpredictable!
The sky gradually brightened, and the sea was still calm, without any agreed signals, nor was there a ship to report the message. Everything was quiet, terrible.
