Seeing Qi Mingshan leading the people away, Tang Yue lazily mounted his horse, looked at the people around him, and waved gently, and the 10,000 Far Eastern Army troops followed Qi Mingshan and began to set off one after another!
At this time, the Qilin Guard's attitude changed, "Hey, you guys from the Far East, be careful and don't let these guys knock you down when they run away!"
"Also, protect your own food. These young soldiers from the capital are famous for their lack of food!"
"The most important thing is, if they die unfortunately, remember to bring back their horses, there are ten thousand of them!"
"Hahaha...!" The whole city burst into laughter!
When Tang Yue saw Zhao Xuanyi in the crowd, he smiled at Zhao Xuanyi and said, "Don't worry, Qi Mingshan can't come back!"
Zhao Xuanyi also nodded to Tang Yue, indicating that he understood that now the prince, the Far East Army, the Qilin Guard, and everyone wanted to get rid of Qi Mingshan, and he could not escape now!
In Kyoto, people from the three major families gathered together again. Yamana Taro looked at the other two people, "I wonder what your plans are?"
Masaru Sasaki looked at Kira Harumasa and saw that Kira Harumasa did not speak. He spoke first, "General, don't worry. Just when you were resting, I had already sent out my ninjas!"
"Oh? I wonder how many people you sent? Where are they going?"
"One thousand jounin, two thousand chuunin, all rush to Hizen!"
"Hizen?"
"Now the Ming army is all gathered in Fukuoka, and Hizen is the place they must pass on their way north. I plan to use three thousand ninjas to disguise themselves as common people. Now that they find that we don't have a large army to press the border, they will definitely relax their vigilance, and they will definitely continue to massacre the common people! "
"And I let all the ninjas hide in the town, and give them a surprise when the time comes, which can easily suppress their morale. Of course, this is just a side dish! And we can no longer let the Ming army continue to oppress us, we should fight back! "Sasaki Masaki said.
"Counterattack? I wonder if General Kira means the same thing?" Yamana Taro asked coldly.
"General, don't talk about me. I have asked my subordinates to mobilize the troops immediately. Now the Ming army has 100,000 people! Naturally, we cannot underestimate it. Next, we have to discuss this. Where should the counterattack begin?" Kira Harumasa said with a smile.
Yamanatarou secretly laughed in his heart. A group of foxes couldn't sit still in the end? Let’s start the real conversation, shall we? "I wonder if there is any suitable place for the two of you?"
Masaru Sasaki continued, "Currently, it seems that the southern part has been completely occupied by the Ming army. If we want to have a counterattack, we have to use forces equal to or even greater than the Ming army! But if we want to use so many To strengthen our troops, we must have a spacious position! I have my eye on a place!"
"There?"
"Nagato!"
"Nagato?"
"That's right! If the Ming army wants to go north and continue to invade our territory, the only land is Nagato. This is the junction of the north and the south, and the terrain is very severe. The only land connecting the north and the south is the sea!"
After Yamana Taro heard this, he couldn't help but shook his head, "It would be okay in summer, with the sea on all sides. We only need to be stationed at Akamon Pass. The narrowest pass is less than two hundred steps. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. place!"
"But unfortunately it's winter now. Even if we guard Nagato, they can step over from the ice!"
"What if there is no ice?" Sasaki Masaki said suddenly.
"..." Yamana Taro and Kira Harumasa both looked at Sasaki Masaken, their eyes full of surprise.
"What do you mean...?" Kira Haru asked tentatively.
"Break all the ice around Nagato and the station and near the sea. It is almost spring now, and there is no cold winter. Breaking the ice at this time, it is difficult to freeze the thick ice on the sea. They have not crossed the river. It’s hard to attack the equipment!”
"At that time, we only need to be stationed at Chimen Pass. No matter how powerful they are, they will not be able to attack us. As long as all the ice on the sea surface melts, our navy will be able to defeat them.
You can attack, and then cooperate with the ground troops to trap them to death in the south. It is not impossible! "Sasaki Masaki said.
After some discussion, Yamana Taro and Kira Harumasa looked at the young man in awe. They didn't expect that such a young man could reveal such a thorough plan. They had really underestimated this young man from the Sasaki family before!
"When the navy lands, the combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced!" Kira Harumasa said.
"Our naval forces are not here to attack them!" Sasaki Masaki said with a smile.
"If you don't hit anyone? What will you do with it?"
"Cut off their logistical supplies. As long as they don't have enough food and grass supplies, how long can they last? How much food and grass will be eaten by hundreds of thousands of troops in a day? Even if the Ming Dynasty can afford it, we in Japan are two thousand miles away from the Ming Dynasty. It's more than 100 kilometers away, and if we do a little bit of work, their supplies will be indispensable!"
After hearing this, Taro Yamana showed a satisfied smile, "You are indeed a young genius! Then follow your plan. You will be the strategist of this war, and we will name this war the Nagato Blockade!"
"It's all up to you, general!" Sasaki Masaru said, nodding slightly, showing the greatest respect to his elders!
On the other side, Qi Mingshan led 10,000 elite soldiers directly across the ice to the village, the first town south of Hizen. It was already dusk, the sky was gradually getting darker, and the village was very quiet. All the Japanese pirates have gone home and started preparing dinner.
When Qi Mingshan set foot on land, his eyes became very cold when he saw the town in front of him, and he immediately issued the order "Kill!" without hesitation.
"Yes! Brothers, rush into the village and kill everyone inside!" the lieutenant shouted.
"Charge...!" As the commander issued the order, tens of thousands of elite soldiers raised their weapons and rushed into the village, killing any living people they saw!
The originally peaceful village suddenly turned into a living hell. The old man begging for mercy, the woman's scream, the baby's cry, etc., all the sounds were mixed together!
But these voices could not withstand the anger in the hearts of these Ming soldiers. They had been suppressed and humiliated by other armies for so many days. Now they had an opportunity to prove themselves. How could they let it go so easily?
Although this group of people are not Japanese soldiers, nor do they have super fighting power, in their eyes, there is no difference. They all have to be killed anyway. The more they kill, the stronger they are!
The belatedly arrived Far Eastern Army slowly landed on land. When they saw the scene in front of them, they did not express much. Even though this group of soldiers had already started the first battle of their expedition, in their eyes, as long as they did not fight with the army, , they will always be young master soldiers, and they are still looked down upon!
A soldier ran up to Qi Mingshan, his face full of joy: "General, we have won and have killed all the Japanese pirates in the town!"
"Okay, now that it's getting late, let all brothers seize the time to clean up the battlefield and then have a good rest. We will continue heading north tomorrow morning!" Qi Mingshan said.
"Yes!" Soldier goes to deliver the order!
At this time, Tang Yue led his Far Eastern Army. Seeing the situation in the town, he smiled slightly, "I didn't expect that the elite soldiers who I didn't dare to find were quite effective! They actually killed all these villagers so bravely. Not bad!"
How could Qi Mingshan not hear that Tang Yue was laughing at him, but there was nothing he could do about it. After all, he currently had the fewest troops and the least combat experience. Even if he wanted to gain face in front of Tang Yue, it would be difficult for him to do so. sky!
But Qi Mingshan is not in a hurry, thinking that you will arrive in the capital eventually, right? When the time comes, I will give you a good show and let you know how powerful I, Qi Mingshan, am. Thinking of this, Qi Mingshan smiled slightly, "After all, this is the prince's order, and I cannot disobey it!"
Tang Yue laughed loudly after hearing this, glanced at Qi Mingshan with contempt, and then led his army inside to find a place to rest.
But Tang Yue ignored Qi Mingshan, and Qi Mingshan kept everything in his mind. As long as he was given a chance, Tang Yue would be beyond redemption! After arranging for everyone to set up camp, Tang Yue sent his own
Someone sent a message to Zhao Xuanyi!
Zhao Xuanyi received the news from Tang Yue early the next morning. After getting Tang Yue's letter, Zhao Xuanyi smiled, "It seems that Qi Mingshan is not a waste yet, at least he can beat women and old people!"
Shen Wei smiled, "Young Master, now that Qi Mingshan has been sent away, what should we do next?"
"Now that all the troops are in place, let's not eat and drink here every day. Let's inform and leave 5,000 Far Eastern troops to stay here. The rest will be ready within half an hour. Let's continue going north!"
"Yes!" Shen Wei nodded and said.
Zhao Xuanyi came to Li Hanyan's side, "I am about to leave this comfortable Fukuoka, and I am really reluctant to leave!"
"Isn't this those fish?"
"It's better that Madam understands me. From now on, I can only send troops to grab food, otherwise I'm afraid we won't have enough food!"
"Why do you sound so like a bandit?"
"You're right, now I am a bandit from the Ming Dynasty, here to rob this Japanese pirate's food and grass! Get ready, I will go directly to command the army later, I will go to the prince!"
"Sure!" Li Hanyan nodded!
On the Qiming Mountain side, they have begun to lead all the Ming soldiers to Tsukasaki in the middle of Hizen! When the Japanese pirates living here saw the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, they were so frightened that they seemed to have lost their souls. They couldn't help but run around. Some were so frightened that they could not even run away and just stood there stupidly!
Naturally, the soldiers from the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion would not miss this opportunity. They immediately pulled out their swords, revealed their spears, and began to kill the Japanese pirates aimlessly!
Qi Mingshan rode a horse to a yard. He looked at various Japanese things in the yard. He didn't recognize them and was not interested. He found a corner everywhere, sat down and closed his eyes. At this moment, there was a fight outside. And wailing doesn't seem to attract his attention!
Qi Mingshan felt very conflicted at the moment. He was obviously out to fight, but no matter where he went, he was killing people. This made him feel a little confused about his behavior. He was obviously a general, so he should have gone into battle to kill the enemy. , fight with the enemy for hundreds of rounds, and then cut off the enemy's head to make yourself famous in one battle!
And now? Otherwise, he would not be allowed to participate in the war. Even if he was given an order, he would still come to kill these people. This kind of laborious and not easy task made Qi Mingshan feel very twisted!
I don't know how long it took, but Qi Mingshan felt someone's figure in front of him. He opened his eyes and saw that it was his own men. Qi Mingshan stood up slowly and said, "Are you done?"
"The killing is over, what next?"
Qi Mingshan sighed, "Immediately send out troops to capture Chikuzen and then return directly to the main force. This can be considered as our mission has been completed!"
"Yes! Everyone gather immediately and move on!"
"Yes!" After two victorious battles, the mood of this group of soldiers has changed drastically. They originally thought that the war would be difficult, but after two battles in the past two days, all the soldiers realized that the war was so easy. ah?
With this feeling of victory for the new recruits, everyone began to move forward and continue marching to the north of Hizen.
After these soldiers left, Tang Yue led 10,000 Far Eastern Army soldiers to the town. Seeing the Japanese pirates all over the place, Tang Yue couldn't help but smile, "This Qi Mingshan can do this kind of work, and other things." I guess he doesn’t know either!”
"General, shall we continue to follow?"
"Don't worry, all brothers stay and search the town to see if there is anything useful and take them away directly!" Tang Yue said.
"Yes!" The Far Eastern Army began to rummage around in the town, searching carefully for all food, poultry, and some daily necessities!
