Ryukyu is an archipelago, with a total of seventy islands, large and small. There are only four large islands that are truly habitable and economically developed, and the other islands can only be used as temporary supply places.
The most developed island in Ryukyu is Rock Island. There are more than 1.4 million people in Ryukyu, and Rock Island alone accounts for 800,000.
Yan Qi led a hundred thousand troops to the Rock Island Pier. The defenders of Rock Island were horrified.
Where did so many warships come from? At a glance, there are more than five hundred ships, majestic and endless.
The garrison of Rock Island only numbered 10,000 people. The general's name is Noda Yoshimasa. It was sent by the Japanese military to guard Ryukyu.
Because the land of Ryukyu is barren and the population is sparse, it is relatively weak in terms of economic and social value. Tokugawa Nobuhiko took control of Ryukyu, knowing that Ryukyu was not an important defense area, and only stationed 10,000 defenders.
better than nothing. The defenders guarding the pier were so frightened that they even forgot to cry and went to find Noda Yoshitsuru.
"What? An army of 100,000 people?" Noda Yoshishima was shocked and hurriedly led the poor 10,000 soldiers, pretending to be calm, and rushed to the dock.
At one glance, Noda Yoshihide felt chilled. Unexpectedly, there is such a vast naval force.
Especially such a powerful warship, how could it be built on earth?
"This is the warship of Dahua, and there is also the battle flag of Dahua, with the word 'Yan' written on it. Yan Qi is coming, the war king of Dahua - Yan Qi is coming..." When Noda Yoshihide looked at When the words "Yan Qi" came out, I didn't even have the courage to resist.
The defender asked Noda Yoshimasa: "General, how should we fight?"
"How to fight?" Noda Yoshihide said: "What else to fight? Escape!" The defenders cried out with a sad face: "Escape? How to escape? Do you want to jump into the sea?" Noda Yoshihide was at a loss.
That's right. Where is he fleeing to? The vast sea. If he didn't escape, it wouldn't be enough for Yan Qi to fill the gap between his teeth. Noda Yoshihide was in a panic, looking around at a loss, not knowing what to do.
...Yan Qi ordered Xu Tianhu to land ashore. Xu Tianhu smiled at the defenders on the shore, who were bending their bows and shooting towards the moon: "Be a smart man, hello to you, me to everyone, if you are stupid, don't blame me for massacre." Dahua Shiwanshui The army landed ashore in such a swaggering manner.
Noda Yoshitsune led ten thousand naval troops, neither advancing nor retreating. He just stood aside and looked around in embarrassment.
It seems that they are not defenders or parties involved, but just standing aside and watching the fun. Yan Qi finally landed.
Xu Tianhu asked nonchalantly: "Who is Noda Yoshishima?" Noda Yoshishima had a portrait of General Dahua. He knew that this young general was Xu Tianhu, so he did not dare to neglect and ran over quickly: "General Xu, what are you doing? ...What are you..." Xu Tianhu bared his teeth and smiled: "We are the Dahua Navy, you defenders, when we land on the island, why don't you attack me? You defenders are not fulfilling their responsibilities." Noda Yoshihashi was embarrassed. "General Xu, don't laugh at me..." Xu Tianhu said: "I didn't laugh at you, I praised you! You did a good job, you are very smart and flexible! If you have no brains, stop our Dahua Water The army landed on the island, and you, ten thousand people, have now become cold corpses."
"This..." Noda Yoshitsune didn't expect Xu's words to be so innocent, and it was a bit too much to save his face. However, he had to admit that Xu's words were 10,000% true.
Xu Tianhu glared at Noda Yoshimasa: "Why don't you go over and wait for the Dahua War King to lecture you?"
"Yes! It's over now, it's over now!" Although Noda Yoshitsuru was a general of the Japanese country, he had been completely suppressed by the aura of the Dahua Navy.
There is a feeling, what does it feel like? Bandits met the regular army! That's what it feels like. Noda Yoshihide bowed his body and bowed to Yan Qi: "Greetings...Greetings to Mr. Yan..." Yan Qi smiled: "General Noda? You are very wise." Noda Yoshihide didn't know what to say, he was embarrassed Deadly.
Yan Qidao: "Remember, it's because I have a good relationship with Mitsui Luo that you saved your life. Otherwise, you would have become a cold corpse now. Do you understand?" Noda Yoshihashi nodded hurriedly: "I understand. I understand." Yan Qi said: "It's good if you understand." Noda Yoshihide asked: "Master Yan, why are you here..." Yan Qi shook his head: "You ask me why I came? Hey, so Say, you still don’t understand.”
"Master Yan, I..."
"Let me tell you, if you really understand, you should understand that when I arrive in Ryukyu, you should not appear in Ryukyu. Since you are no longer in Ryukyu, can you still ask stupid questions about what I am doing here?"
"Yes, Lord Yan, I understand, I will withdraw now." Noda Yoshihide finally understood what he should do.
He wiped the sweat from his head and immediately summoned ten thousand defenders. In panic, he ran onto the warship and fled.
The Dahua navy couldn't help but howl in excitement when they saw Noda Yoshimasa's navy fleeing in panic. Xu Tianhu watched Noda Yoshitsuru running away from a distance, feeling very regretful: "Brother Qi, is it too merciful to just let them go like this? These Japanese naval forces should be killed." Yan Qidao: "Of course it's easy to kill them, but I don't want to save face for Mitsui." Xu Tianhu said: "It's so shameful for Mitsui to lose face." An Qing asked Xu Tianhu on the side: "Noda Yoshimasa is still alive to Tokugawa Masahiko If you plead guilty, you will definitely say that Mitsui Luo hooked up with Yan Qi and betrayed Ryukyu Island. What is the effect of this? "
"If Noda Yoshihide dies, then who will be the mouthpiece? Do you know which one is more effective?" Xu Tianhu patted his head: "I see." Yan Qi landed on the island and drove away Noda Yoshihide. Chang's 10,000 defenders made a big move.
Those fishermen in the distance could see clearly. Many fishermen looked at Dahua's battle flag from a distance, but did not dare to come close.
Yan Qi's eyes are so amazing. He waved to everyone: "Hello everyone, I am Dahua Yanqi! Most of you must be descendants of Dahua, right? We are still fellow villagers."
"My fellow countrymen are in tears when I see my fellow countrymen. Come, I have some fine wine here for all of you, my fellow countrymen. First come, first served, if it's too late." Ryukyu people live in poverty, lack of food, and are reluctant to drink.
They heard Yan Qi say that there was good wine, so they swarmed around him regardless of the danger. Yan Qi said: "Don't worry, everyone, there are a lot of people on the ship. If you have enough, you have enough."
"Not only is there wine, but there is also food and cloth and clothes!" More and more Ryukyu people gathered around. Many children were jumping up and down, carrying food on their backs, and walking unsteadily. They obviously couldn't carry it, but they still wanted to carry more.
When Yan Qi saw that they were sallow, thin, and stooped, he knew that their lives were quite unsatisfactory. Although I lamented the hardship of the Ryukyu people, I nodded with relief: the more so, the easier it will be to handle the Ryukyu issue.
