Chapter 723 Attacking Kyushu

"Hug your head and squat down!"

"Let's go in line, don't move!"

"Shang Lin, pack up your weapons!"

Shang Tong's command was first-class, as if he had done it many times, and it was very smooth, although it was the first time.

Liu Wentian's people were responsible for the supervision, and they selected those who looked like "senior generals", divided them into supervision, and prepared for interrogation.

At the same time, Liu Wentian ordered people to enter the chicken intestines and clean up the fish that had leaked the net.

Half an hour later, Shang Tong suddenly remembered something and said to Shang Lin, "Next, you will be responsible, I will go back to the palace!"

Shang Tong was also stunned by Dasheng. Only then did he remember it. After saying that, he turned around and ran towards Shuri Castle quickly.

Cao Wenzhao observed these prisoners of war, then picked up a spear, looked at them carefully, and then looked at their short swords, with an extremely serious expression.

After a while, Daosheng came over and said, "Sir, is there anything wrong with it?"

Cao Wenzhao shook his head, looked at the Sammo samurai who were kneeling with his head in his arms, and said, "These Japanese are short, so their weapons are relatively 'exquisite'. However, after all, they are island countries and their tactical strategies are very poor, which is a bit beyond my expectations."

Lai Daosheng nodded and said, "Sir, this is good, it saves us troubles. We can fight quickly."

Cao Wenzhao didn't say much, and asked someone to lead a horse and head straight to the shore.

Not long after, Cao Wenzhao came to the shore and looked at the ships covering most of the port.

The captain ran over and said to him, "Sir, we have checked, there are no fish that have escaped the net, and these boats are barely available."

Cao Wenzhao got on the ship in front, observed carefully, tried it, then looked up and looked forward, frowned and said, "Are these ships so small?"

The captain followed and said, "Sir, there are not many big ships, but the Satsuma ships are generally narrow and small, much worse than our Ming Dynasty. It transports some people and cargo, and it is OK to carry cannons, and it is not suitable for naval battles."

Cao Wenzhao didn't say anything, and he calculated silently in his heart.

The letter of condemnation sent to Japan will take more than ten days to go back and forth. No matter what attitude the country is in Japan, he will defeat Satsuma and establish his authority!

"Send the order!" Cao Wenzhao looked at the vast sea in the north and said in a deep voice: "Look, repair these ships, our army will set off tomorrow morning, head north, and conquer Samo!"

"Abide by the order!" Cao Wenzhao's personal guard replied loudly.

"Big victory! Big victory!"

Before Shang Tong arrived at the palace, there were already a few smart Liuqiu soldiers running back first to report to King Shangfeng and others.

King Shangfeng was excited when he heard this in the secret room and said hurriedly: "Hurry, hurry, open the door!"

Shang Lian and others also stood up one after another and looked out the door anxiously.

Three soldiers knelt outside the door. When they saw Shang Feng coming out, they shouted loudly, "Wang, the heavenly soldiers won a great victory. Without any effort, they defeated all the Satsuma Domain, and no one escaped!"

Shang Lian took a step forward and said anxiously: "What you said is true?"

"No word is true, General Shang is on the way back!" said the soldier.

Shang Lian shook his body, let out a long breath, his eyes were a little distracted, and he murmured: "Okay, okay, that's great..."

Shang Feng sat on the ground with his butt. After a while, his head was covered in sweat and his body was already wet without realizing it.

A woman in white, sixteen or seventeen years old, walked out from behind them, and looked at the two of them and said softly, "Wang, father, at this time, I still need to comfort the Tianjun and all the generals."

Shang Feng opened his eyes and quickly got up and said, "Yes, hurry up, prepare the carriage, I am going to see the general!"

Shang Lianqiang calmed down and looked at his daughter with some relief. Seeing her pretty and charming face, his heart moved slightly.

When Shang Feng and others were about to leave the palace, Shang Tong finally rushed back. Shang Feng and Shang Lian quickly pulled him into the carriage, and while walking, he ordered him to tell him carefully.

After listening, Shang Feng looked yearning and exclaimed, "The Celestial Empire is so prosperous. Our country admires it for more than two hundred years. He never thought that the military was so sharp. It is worthy of being the country of the Celestial Empire. It is not my football that can be reached!"

Shang Lian nodded slightly when he heard this. The power displayed by the Ming army was not only Liu. The ball was incomparable. Even Satsuma was a mantis armed mantis chariot, which was vulnerable.

He had a thought in his mind that he could not say for the time being.

Shang Tong's passion was not yet relieved, and he looked at Shang Feng and said, "Wang, although we are blessed by the Celestial Empire, our country cannot be self-reliant. I would like to go to the Celestial Empire after this battle to learn the art of war!"

Shang Feng was intentionally strengthening his interactions with the Ming Dynasty in his heart, and smiled and said, "After this battle, I will enter the court again. I will meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty and ask for more help to our country. Then you can go with me."

"Yes!" Shang Tong said excitedly.

Shang Lian nodded calmly, Liu Qiu passed by this time and completely understood that he could no longer hold on to the past and needed to be excited!

While they were rushing to the battlefield, Liu Wentian was interrogating Huashan Jiushou.

He didn't understand Japanese, so he could only find an interpreter to ask, which immediately reduced his majesty by half.

He sat on a large stone, and Hua Shan Jiushou knelt in front of him.

Huashan has been waiting for a long time until now, but he still feels still in fear. After all, the smell of gunpowder cannot be dissipated, which makes him very uneasy.

There are eight thousand people, now there are less than two thousand, and less than four thousand can survive!

It was terrible that they didn't even touch the corners of the Ming army! Even when Toyotomi Hideyoshi led an army of 200,000 to conquer Kyushu, they were not as powerful as they were!

‘Ming, it’s true that you can’t be deceived!’ Huashan Jiushou’s heart was pounding, and his mind was even more chaotic. I don’t know what kind of treatment he would end up with.

Liu Wentian threw out questions one by one because the other party couldn't understand and was too lazy to show his majesty. He just asked the topic he was concerned about with expressionless face.

This translation is Liu Qiuren, who is proficient in Chinese and Japanese. He is very majestic and scolds him from time to time. He scares Huashan's body trembles from time to time, and he becomes even more scared. After all, he can't understand Chinese even a few words.

一边做记录的小吏心中腹诽,也没有去理会这翻译的狐假虎威,认认真真的记录着.

The more Liu Wentian asked, the more strange he became, and he looked at Huashan Jiushou with a strange look.

Huashan became more and more afraid, and suddenly he suddenly knocked his head on the ground, gushing loudly, not knowing what he was talking about.

The translator snorted coldly, turned to Liu Wentian reluctantly and said, "General Liu, Huashan Jiushou said that he is willing to surrender and is willing to fight for the Ming Dynasty. He is loyal and will never betray!"

Liu Wentian had already asked almost the same question, waved his hand and said, "Tell him, I don't need it in the Ming Dynasty." As he said that, he stood up and was about to leave.

Huashan Jiushou seemed to understand, and suddenly kowtowed to Liu Wentian again, and said a long list loudly.

Liu Wentian couldn't understand, so he turned to look at the translator.

The translator was shocked and said hurriedly, "General Liu, he said that the Satsuma Kingdom is now empty and is willing to take the Satsuma Kingdom for the Celestial Empire as a letter of submission."

Liu Wentian's eyes lit up. If this is true, this Huashan Mountain will be useful for a long time.

Liu Wentian couldn't make the decision on this matter. He looked at Huashan for a long time and pondered for a moment, "Tell him, I'll report it and let him wait."

The translator looked at Huashan Jiushou kneeling on the ground and said lightly.

Huashan Jiushou looked motionless, suddenly knelt down and nodded suddenly, saying, "Ha!"

Liu Wentian found Cao Wenzhao who had returned from the port and said as he walked: "Sir, our information is still a bit bad, do you know? The Japanese country, which is the size of a palm, actually enfeoffed seventy or eighty small countries, which is the Jiuzhou Island where Satsuma is located. There are more than ten small countries. They are not subordinate to each other. Each small country has no more than ten thousand troops at most, and there is no formal training army. They are all mixed and so-called "samurai", and they are completely a mess..."

Cao Wenzhao paused and looked at him and said, "What you said is true? Is it reliable?"

Liu Wentian thought that Japan was ridiculous and nodded, "It should be reliable. The information of the Jinyiwei also mentioned it. Comparing it, it is very credible. By the way, the leader of the army is going to surrender. I hope that we will conquer Satsuma. Satsuma is now empty and can drive straight in."

Cao Wenzhao suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at the sky and began to think.

This was what he learned from Zhu Xu unconsciously. Of course, he didn't dare to do this action in front of Zhu Xu.

A small ambition sprouted in Cao Wenzhao's heart and then slowly grew stronger. Now it was so itchy. But this ambition was a bit risky and might have been messed up. If it was messed up, it would have broken Zhu Xu's plan and fell into the situation he was worried about.

But if it succeeds, it will not only be a great achievement, but will also bring endless benefits to the Ming Dynasty and also set an excellent outpost for Zhu Xu's unspeakable ambitions!

When Liu Wentian saw that Cao Wenzhao had been looking at the sky, he said after a while: "Sir?"

Cao Wenzhao's expression moved slightly, then coughed, looked at Liu Wentian, and was still struggling violently. The situation he encountered was faced by many generals who led the troops, which was a temporary response to the actual situation. Whether it was successful or not, it was "disobedience" in the eyes of the superiors, which was an extremely dangerous thing!

Cao Wenzhao was even more special. Everyone in the world knew that he was the first confidant of the Emperor of Ming Dynasty and was trusted. Therefore, he always acted very cautiously, for fear that he would be caught and misunderstood by Zhu Xu.

But this opportunity in front of him really made him unable to control it and wanted to give it a try.

But the opportunity was fleeting, and Zhu Xu was thousands of miles away again, and it took a few months to pass!

Liu Wentian looked at Cao Wenzhao and still didn't say anything, and felt something in his heart, saying, "Sir, what's the difficulty? You might as well say it out loud. Maybe it may not be possible to solve your doubts."

Cao Wenzhao looked at him, thought for a while, and pondered: "I won't hide it from you. I have mobilized the navy from various bases in the north, as well as Qin Yiming from Korea and reinforcements, and there will be 30,000 troops and 3,000 naval troops, which can completely sweep the entire Kyushu! As long as I am fast enough, I can build defenses in the junction of Kyushu and the main island of the Japanese state. With the navy, even if the 200,000 Japanese troops come to attack, I am confident that I can defend it and include this island in my Ming Dynasty!"

Liu Wentian opened his eyes and said, "This is indeed a good opportunity. What are you worried about?"

Cao Wenzhao looked up at the south and said, "The red-haired man is eyeing him, the emperor must concentrate on his response. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty is experiencing disasters and cannot withstand the consumption of a great war. Therefore, the emperor's thousands of instructions should not fall into a war of attrition. The only thing I worry about is that I really fall into this situation, and the emperor and the court cannot explain it."

Liu Wentian understood that the key to the problem was that they could not get caught in, confront Japan, and fell into an unpredictable long-term war of attrition.

"Sir, I have a way!" Suddenly, Liu Wentian said with a flash of eyes.
