Chapter 656 New plan

However, Jianglang believed that the current situation in Hosokawa Katsumoto was not chaotic enough, so in order to make the situation even more chaotic, Jianglang secretly sent some people.

These people were all elite soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. Through the advantages of the Ming Dynasty at sea, they had quietly been thrown behind the defense line that had crossed Hosokawa Katsumoto. At the same time, these soldiers began to unite with the leaders of the people who launched the rebellion, and provided them with a lot of weapons and so on to help them rebel. Of course, privately, they also signed a contract with these people. Once Hosokawa Katsumoto was defeated, the Ming Dynasty implemented the policies and laws he had thought of, so that the people here could live and work in peace and contentment, but the prerequisite was that these people must put down their weapons and disband the team within one year, otherwise, the Ming Dynasty would treat them as an enemy.

To a large extent, these people took up weapons in the hope of a good day. If the Ming Dynasty really implemented new policies, it would be meaningless for them to resist, and the deadline was only one year, which was to give them a period of adaptation.

More than a month passed quickly, and winter was coming here.

With the full supply from the Ming Dynasty court, Jiang Lang's hundreds of thousands of soldiers were not short of food and clothing. Of course, in return, the gold, silver and treasures he had plundered in Jiuzhou Island and other places. Of course, for Emperor Jingtai of the Ming Dynasty, he did not value these gold, silver and treasures. What was important was that the territory of the Ming Dynasty had now expanded a lot in his hands. The hundreds of thousands of expeditionary troops led by Jiang Lang were now helping him to build a large territory for the Ming Dynasty just like the emperor who had passed by his own dynasty.

Emperor Jingtai will naturally not treat these people who have built a large territory for themselves. Moreover, the autumn harvest has just passed, and the three years of accumulation have already made the Ming Dynasty support a battle. Moreover, the grain brought by Jianglang from overseas has now been planted on a large scale, solving the problem of eating for many people. Therefore, even if the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty and the soldiers of Hosokawa Katsumoto confront each other here, the soldiers are not worried about food and drink.

But Hosokawa Katsumoto is different. The army of hundreds of thousands of Ming people in front was now in a mess behind him, and people were making trouble everywhere. This supply has become a big problem now. According to the military officer, the supply can only maintain the normal consumption of the troops for ten days, but there is also chaos in the rear, and there is no amount of food to be found to be replenished. The army is about to face the situation where there is no food available.

Hosokawa Katsumoto is now anxious and has a messy city. He has no way to move his troops here, because once he is dispatched, the Ming army will immediately attack the city, and then he will be defeated like a mountain. Soon, he will become a prisoner of others like Yamana Katsuto and Ashikaga Yoshimasa. He is a poor loser. However, if he does not move, notes will also be a problem. Ten days will pass in the blink of an eye.

In addition, the problem that troubles Hosokawa Katsumoto is the problem of deserters. Incomplete estimates, the deserters are now close to 5,000.

Of course, what he hates the most is Jiang Lang.

And now Elang is playing chess with Ashikaga Yoshimasa in Kobe Castle.

Although the cultures of the two countries were surprising, the Komu Army accepted a lot of the cultures of the Tang Dynasty, so there was also Go. Now the two of them were authentic tea and playing slowly.

Ashikaga Yoshimasa seemed a little absent-minded. What he was most concerned about now was the situation on Hosokawa Katsumoto. However, Jianglang had adopted information control over him. Of course, he could know, but he could not know, or he didn't want him to know. Jianglang would not let a word enter his ears.

"Bang..."

The chess piece in Jiang Lang's hand fell and he smiled and said, "God General, you lost!"

Ashikaga Yoshimasa wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled awkwardly: "The general is very skilled in chess, I am no match!"

"Not the opponent?"

Jiang Lang smiled faintly and said, "Actually, the general is not just me, but today the general's mind is not completely on playing chess. Does the general want to know the situation on Katsumoto Hosokawa?"

After saying that, Jiang Lang grabbed the chess piece in the jar and gently placed it in the jar.

Ashikaga Yoshimasa couldn't help but be stunned. He thought that his thoughts were actually known by Jiang Lang. He nodded and said, "Yes, I heard that there is a mess there now?"

"What does the so-called chaos mean by Your Excellency General?"

Jiang Lang asked again, turning his head to look at Ashigaki Yoshimasaki. Nowadays, Yoshimasaki still has some fantasies, but this fantasy has long been broken.

Ashikaga Yoshimasaki was slightly silent, then said: "Since Hosokawa Katsumoto fought with the Supreme Three years ago, he has been working hard to train his troops, but now the general does not seem to be fighting directly with him. Moreover, there are rebellions everywhere in his territory. Is this a plan for the Supreme? "

Is it a plan that Jiang Lang naturally won’t say it clearly, smiled, stood up, and asked, “So do you think this is my plan?”

This really stopped Ashikaga Yoshimasato, and he thought about what to answer in his heart. He shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know this!"

Jiang Langze said: "It doesn't matter whether it is a plan or not. The key point is that Hosokawa Katsumoto has not supported it for long. According to our information, due to the chaos in the country, his supply introduction has problems. Now his food is only supported for more than ten days. After more than ten days, even if we launch an attack, the general can take revenge. After all, Hosokawa Katsumoto harmed all the family of His Excellency General, and this revenge cannot be avenged!"

Ashikaga Yoshimasaki's whole family was destroyed by Hosokawa Katsumoto. This is the proven news. Now that he heard Jiang Lang mention it again, Ashikaga Yoshimasaki was also very angry and immediately said: "Yes, of course this revenge must be avenged!"

Jiang Lang nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, I'll take him to the general to deal with it. You can kill him no matter how you want!"

After saying that, he laughed and walked out with his hands on his back.

As Jiang Lang expected, Hosokawa Katsumoto's supply had stopped in ten days. In order to allow the soldiers to suffer more time, Hosokawa Katsumoto's army should drink porridge, which was as thin as water, and there were only two meals a day. After a few days, the soldiers couldn't help but complain, but there was no supply. After a few days, the porridge was not allowed to be drunk.

Hosokawa Katsumoto's supply mainly relies on land and water. In order to block Hosokawa Katsumoto, in this sea area, Jianglang arranged the Ming Dynasty warships. Whenever he encountered Hosokawa Katsumoto's supply fleet, he took it with all his strength. The navy, which had always complained that there was no big war, now there were big wars every day. During this period, many Hosokawa Katsumoto's supply fleets were eliminated and completely cut off his sea transportation route. On land, under Jianglang's super control, uprisings broke out everywhere on the road through the capital. There was no way to transport the supply of Hosokawa Katsumoto here.

Moreover, even though he knew that there was a food crisis in Hosokawa Katsumoto, Jianglang used a very ruthless method. After three days, Hosokawa Katsumoto's troops had drunk the porridge that they could not eat enough for three days. Jianglang ordered his husband to cook in front of the camp, and they were still making big fish and meat.

The God of Heaven was also beautiful at this time. The northeast wind was blowing these days. The fragrance of the things made by these guys was soon blown to the walls of Katsumoto Hosokawa. The soldiers who were already hungry today immediately smelled these fragrances. They were all hungry and were immediately attracted by the fragrance and drooling. At the same time, their stomachs also started to rumble, as if they could not bear the fragrance.

However, Jiang Lang’s actions are far more than that, he has a next step.

After making these foods, thousands of people immediately called out, and under the eyes of these Hosokawa Katsumoto soldiers, they started eating, drinking, and drinking heavily. At the same time, they kept drinking, delicious and so on.

Drinking porridge every day can't fill your stomach at all. With the cold wind, these soldiers have long been unbearable. In this case, looking at these Ming Dynasty soldiers who were eating and drinking, these soldiers could only swallow their saliva.

Seeing all this, Jiang Lang smiled very happily.

In the next few days, Jiang Lang was still like this. He cooked under the eyes of the hungry soldiers, and then asked the soldiers to eat under their noses, and then shouted ok.

Finally, some soldiers couldn't bear it anymore, so they sneaked out at night and surrendered to the Ming Dynasty camp. And once they came over, the Ming Dynasty people immediately treated them with good wine and food. Of course, this was just one or two meals. After all, Jianglang didn't have much to feed them, but it was still okay to eat enough.

With the first one, there was the second one and the third one. In the next few days, more and more soldiers began to sneak to the Ming Dynasty. At first, they ran away secretly, one or two, one or two, and when they arrived, they were in groups. Hosokawa Katsumoto also discovered this problem. At first, they took compulsory measures, but afterwards, there was no way, because even those people began to join the escape camp.

Hosokawa Katsumoto's hundreds of thousands of troops were actually messed up and on the verge of collapse without spending a single soldier on the surface.

However, Jiang Lang was not finished. In the next few days, Jiang Lang made another move, allowing the soldiers' families to come here.
