In this regard, Zhu Di and the Yanshan Guards were also happy to save their physical strength.
We walked about ten miles on the mountain road.
A large town appeared in front of Zhu Di and others.
Of course, this is what Zhu Di and other Yanshan guards thought, but in front of Gao Li and other soldiers, this was a city in front of them, a Japanese pirate city.
All the Goryeo soldiers glowed with bloodlust.
In the city, the Zong clan had already received various news and prepared for a war.
Especially the people of the Zong clan, looking at the Koreans and the Ming people in armor outside, their eyes were full of greed.
There is such exquisite armor!
If you come, then all of them will stay!
Thinking of this, the Zong clan began to mobilize their troops and generals, preparing to keep all the bold Koreans outside.
However, before they had time to act, they saw some small black iron balls suddenly flying out from the group of Koreans outside.
Immediately, fire burned on their walls, and at the same time, they spewed out flames like a mountain god in anger.
Then, thousands more rockets flew towards them.
The Zong clan looked at the chaotic city wall, their eyes cracked, and they were terrified.
Those Goryeo soldiers whom they regarded as sheep were already rushing around to kill them.
As for Zhu Neng, Qiu Song, Chen Xi, Li Jun and others, they followed Zhu Di closely, which made Zhu Di very annoying.
However, no matter how Zhu Di scolded him, Zhu Neng, Qiu Song, Chen Xi, Li Jun and others continued to surround Zhu Di shamelessly.
All Japanese pirates who appeared in front of Zhu Di were directly killed by Zhu Neng, Qiu Song and others before Zhu Di took action.
Zhu Di was angry and helpless.
After fighting until it got dark, Zhu Di led a group of people back to the ship.
"Guo Qing, the lives of those Japanese pirates were even worse than those of the Koreans."
Zhu Di said slowly: "We killed nearly ten thousand Japanese pirates. Except for a few Japanese pirates and dignitaries, the homes of the remaining Japanese pirates were all bare and without any food.
Half of the Japanese pirates were sallow and thin. When they saw the army coming to kill them, they fled in panic. "
Guo An couldn't help but said: "Your Highness, those Japanese pirates rely on the sea and make a living by eating sea fish all year round."
Zhu Di: "..."
Zhu Neng on the side looked excited and said: "Guo Changshi, those Japanese pirates have been eating fish all their lives? No wonder they are full of fishy smell, it is so stinky!"
"If they have food, they will eat it!"
Guo An replied.
Zhu Neng said: "However, when I fought through the mountains along the way, I didn't see the Japanese pirates' fields."
"Then they all eat fish."
Guo Andao said, "They will only eat food unless they invade Goryeo or have food after the Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Neng said thoughtfully: "No wonder these Japanese pirates are trying their best to invade our country, Ming Dynasty and Korea. It turns out that they want to eat food."
Guo An said coldly: "For the sake of a bite to eat, these Japanese pirates can turn into devils and do all kinds of evil."
On the side, Zhu Neng, Qiu Song, Chen Xi, and Li Jun still wanted to say something.
At this time, the big ship was already close to the center of the bay and gathered with three other groups of ships.
The generals of the other three teams of ships also came to Zhu Di with excited faces and reported to Zhu Di: "Your Highness, the general will burn down three Japanese villages and one town this time, killing more than 8,000 Japanese people."
"Your Highness, the general will burn down two Japanese villages and one town. More than 6,000 Japanese people were killed."
"Your Majesty, the general will burn down five Japanese villages and one town. More than 7,000 Japanese people were killed."
Zhu Di nodded slightly and asked again:
"Is my Yanshan Guard injured?"
"Reporting to Your Highness, one of the last two hundred households was killed and five were injured!"
"Reporting to Your Highness, at the end of the day, no one from two hundred households was killed, and eight people were injured!"
"Reporting to Your Highness, two people from two hundred households were killed and seven were injured at the end of the day!"
"Um?"
Zhu Dihu stared, "Two people died, and one more? Why did people die?"
Those hundreds of households immediately lowered their heads, their faces full of shame.
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. The Japanese pirates are cunning and treacherous. Some of them pretended to be dead and some used hidden weapons. My brothers and I were unaware of this and fell into the trap!"
"snort!"
Zhu Di's face turned cold, "Why don't you mend your sword? Also, what do you want those Koreans to do?"
A white man said cautiously: "Your Highness, those Koreans died more!"
"Fengshishan, how can those Koreans compare with me, Yanshan Guards?"
Zhu Di was furious, "We brought 20,000 Koreans, could it be that we want them to come to the theater?
Feng Shishan, you bastard, remember this. Every time a Yanshan Guard dies under your command, one share of your contribution will be deducted from the statistics after the war! "
"ah?"
The face of the hundred households named Feng Shishan changed.
Similarly, the expressions of the surrounding households also changed slightly.
In their eyes, that contribution is worth at least a hundred taels of silver.
If a few more brothers die in the future, then they...
Thinking about it, all the hundreds of households looked furious.
Zhu Di said: "Please remember, it has nothing to do with us how many Koreans die. However, none of us in the Yanshan Guards must die!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
"Okay, it's getting late. Let's all go down to eat. We will be on strict alert tonight. Although the Japanese pirates' boats have been burned down, those Japanese pirates have been fishing in the sea all year round, and the water quality is very good to prevent them from sneaking over."
"Yes, Your Highness..."
As hundreds of families descended, lanterns were lit on the boats.
Looking from a distance, the Koreans did not feel sad at all for the death or injury of their companions. On the contrary, they all looked excited.
However, whenever Yanshanwei looked at them, the Koreans would quickly stop smiling and become wary.
Chen Xi's small eyes narrowed slightly, gradually turning into a small gap, "Your Highness, Guo Changshi, look at the eyes of those Koreans, they must have grabbed a lot of good things from those Japanese pirates during the day. !”
"Um!"
Guo An and Zhu Di both nodded slightly and ignored it at all.
Chen Xi and Zhu Neng couldn't help but be a little surprised, "Your Highness, Guo Changshi, shouldn't we let those Koreans hand over their property?"
Zhu Di glanced at Guo An.
Guo An said slowly: "Those belongings were robbed by those Koreans who risked their lives.
I, Prince Yan, still want those Korean people to fight hard, how can I rob them of their belongings?
In addition, we, Prince Yan’s Mansion, don’t like the items that the Koreans snatched.
Of course, the most important thing is that as long as Goryeo and Prince Yan are still trading, no matter how much property those Goryeo soldiers steal, it will eventually flow into Prince Yan’s mansion..."
Following Guo An's explanation, Zhu Neng, Chen Xi and others could not help but look thoughtful, and no longer paid attention to the excited Koreans.
After a day of fighting and fighting during the day, everyone was very tired.
So, after a meal.
Everyone fell asleep quickly except for the soldiers who were keeping watch.
Contrary to Zhu Di, Guo An and others' worries, the Japanese pirates did not dare to attack all night, or the Japanese pirates did not even know that they had damaged hundreds of ships and killed more than 30,000 compatriots.
Early the next morning.
Zhu Di sent out scouts to continue searching for Japanese pirates along the four towns that were killed yesterday.
However, after searching for half a day, except for a few small villages, no large Japanese pirate towns were seen.
Zhu Di said to Guo An: "There should be no large group of Japanese pirates on this island. We have decided to leave here and join Chen Gui, Wang You and Qiu Fu to attack the big Japanese island!"
Chen Gui, Wang You, and Zhu Liang were all generals who followed Zhu Di to join the vassal state.
This time, they led the fleet along both sides of Tsushima Island to surround Tsushima Island.
"What His Highness said is absolutely true!"
Guo An nodded slightly and did not object.
He knew that Zhu Di was anxious, and Zhu Di would have to go back in half a month at most.
"Send the order, the fleet sets sail and meets Qiu Fu and the others!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
…
The channel in the bay where they were located could only pass small boats.
As for the big ship Zhu Di was on, it couldn't pass at all.
Therefore, the fleet can only sail out of the bay and sail around the island.
Along the way, they also saw dozens of burned ships, large and small.
There are even burned down towns, villages, and mountains...
In this way, after sailing for a day and a half, we finally found the three fleets of Qiu Fu, Chen Gui, and Wang You.
At some point, three fleets had gathered together.
Seeing Zhu Di, the three people quickly boarded the ship to pay their respects.
"Your Highness, the last general's fleet suffered three deaths and ten injuries, but more than 20,000 Japanese pirates were wiped out!"
"Your Majesty, the last general's fleet has killed five people, injured 12 people, and wiped out more than 23,000 Japanese pirates!"
"Your Highness, the last general's fleet has killed one person, injured five others, and wiped out more than 12,000 Japanese pirates!"
"Why are there so many casualties?"
As usual, Zhu Di severely scolded Qiu Fu, Chen Gui, and Wang You.
Then, they integrated their fleet and headed straight for the Japanese pirate island opposite.
On the ship, Zhu Di looked confused about the attack location pointed by Guo An.
"Guo Qing, is this the place where King Lianghuai of Japan is located?"
Guo An replied honestly, "Your Highness, I forgive you, but I don't know where King Lianghuai of Japan is?"
Guo An also heard about the bad reputation of King Lianghuai of Japan.
Lao Zhu sent envoys twice to ask King Lianghuai of the Japanese state to take charge of the Japanese pirates and pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty. However, King Lianghuai of the Japanese state not only killed the envoys of the Ming Dynasty, but also continued to let Japanese pirates harass Shandong, Zhejiang, and Fujian.
Even Lao Zhu threatened King Lianghuai of the Japanese country and wanted to go to the Japanese country.
However, King Lianghuai of the Japanese state was also very tough. He wrote to Lao Zhu, saying that if the Ming Dynasty sent troops to conquer the Japanese state, he would actively prepare for war.
This made Lao Zhu very angry, but when he thought that the Yuan Dynasty went to Japan twice and encountered strong winds and returned defeated, he gave up his plan to attack Japan.
This time, Zhu Di came to attack Japan aggressively, and King Lianghuai accounted for half of the reason.
Zhu Di said coldly: "No problem, catch a few Japanese dignitaries, they must know where King Lianghuai is hiding!"
"Your Highness is wise!"
Guo An echoed.
Zhu Di glanced at Guo An helplessly and asked, "Why did Guo Qing choose to attack here?"
"Your Highness, please forgive me. This is my humble instinct."
Guo An said slowly.
"intuition?"
Zhu Di looked confused.
Guo An smiled awkwardly, "I can't remember when I read an ancient book, or a letter, which said there is a silver mountain here."
"Silver Mountain?"
Zhu Di's eyes widened, "Is this true?"
Guo An shook his head quickly and said, "Please forgive me, Your Highness. I am not convinced, so I wanted to come here to test it out."
Zhu Di's face turned solemn, "In this case, we will use up all the grenades and incendiary bombs we brought here, and we will also dig through this area."
"Thank you for your trust, Your Highness."
Guo An said gratefully.
