In the dense forest, Supervisor Sheng stepped on a branch as thick as a bowl and looked at the battle in the camp in the distance. After entering the court, before the saber drank blood, he saw a good show first.
Supervisor Sheng could not understand the logic and thoughts of these idiots, but he respected their choices and was happy for their choices. From time to time he would shout: "A lot more people died..."
Imagawa Ryotoshi never imagined that on the eve of the attack on Uiju and the elimination of the Joseon royal family, the night before the destruction of the country was within easy reach, and at the critical moment when the Imagawa family entered its heyday, the second son, Mansada and Shimazu Motohisa, actually rebelled. !
From behind, he inserted two knives into himself!
These people destroyed the fruit that the Imagawa clan most desired, and destroyed the most glorious victory of the Imagawa clan. The anger in Imagawa Ryoujun's heart could not be increased, and he kept slashing with the sword in his hand!
Imagawa Nakaaki shouted, organizing the warriors to stabilize the situation. When he saw the second young master Karai charging towards him, he picked up the bloody sword, chopped down the two sergeants, and then rushed towards the second young master Karai.
Ding!
Mars appears!
Young Master Jia Lai took a step back and looked in surprise, only to see Imagawa Zhongqiu holding a knife in both hands with a murderous look on his face. Young Master Jia Lai gritted his teeth, held the sword tightly, and said with cold eyes: "Imagawa family, accept your fate!"
Imagawa Nakaaki stared with red eyes, jumped up and slashed!
Young Master Jia Lai raised his sword to parry, swung the sword quickly, and struck him seven times in a row, forcing Imakawa Zhongqiu back several steps. Seeing that Imakawa Zhongqiu had no strength to fight back, he swung his sword sideways!
Ding!
The blade touched the blade and made a golden sound.
Young Master Jia Lai was a little surprised. Imagawa Zhongqiu stepped closer, and with a half-turn of the sword in his hand, he passed over Young Master Jia Lai's neck. He raised the knife and licked the blood.
He said coldly: "The sword is not as useful as yours!"
puff!
Imagawa Nakaaki's body swayed and he looked down at the arrow on his chest. He raised his head slightly and saw Shao Erjiao Lai coming towards him with a long bow. Imagawa Nakaaki swung his sword!
Shao Erjiao Lai bent his body, almost in a "kneeling" posture to avoid Imakawa Zhongqiu's blade. He appeared behind Imakawa Zhongqiu, raised his hand, put the long bow on Imakawa Zhongqiu's neck, and pulled back suddenly , Imagawa Nakaaki felt as if his neck had been cut, and he fell down without any force!
As soon as the person fell to the ground, Imagawa Zhongqiu felt a pain in his chest, and his pupils suddenly condensed, full of fear.
Shao Erjiao Lai had already pulled up his long bow and aimed the bloody arrow at Imagawa Zhongqiu's forehead.
Arrow out!
It was instantly inserted into Imakawa Nakaaki's forehead, and his head, which was slightly raised, hit the ground hard!
"Brother!"
The second master Jia Lai looked at the second master Jia Lai, who put down the hand covering his neck. Blood spurted out with blood bubbles. He smiled sadly and fell to the ground.
"Kill, kill them all!"
The second young man, Manzhen, saw his son died tragically and shouted for the warriors to rush to kill him.
After Imagawa Mitsuhiro killed one person, he stood with Imakawa Ryotoshi: "Father, our people have suffered heavy losses. If we continue to fight like this, the entire army may be annihilated! Withdraw!"
Imagawa Ryotoshi was in some pain. His younger brother was killed, so many brave sergeants were killed, and every samurai was lost here! If you don't take precautions, you will suffer too many manpower losses. By the time you react, your troops will be demoralized and unable to fight!
But how to withdraw now?
When armies are fighting together, they cannot withdraw if they want to. Unless a large number of people are sacrificed and a small number of people are left behind,
escape!
"Withdraw now, and all our elite warriors will be lost here!"
Imakawa Ryojun was unwilling to give in.
Imagawa Mitsuhiro shouted eagerly: "It's better than everyone staying here. As long as we are still there, the Imagawa clan will eventually rise! Today's revenge will be reported to him!"
Imagawa Ryotoshi looked at the situation and knew that he was completely at a disadvantage and that collapse was only a matter of time. He gritted his teeth, took more than thirty warriors, and fled north.
Before leaving, Imagawa Ryojun did not forget to mobilize their morale and let them withstand it.
But Imagawa Rokutoshi underestimated the arrangements of his second son, Mansada, and Shimazu Motohisa. Shimazu Hisaotō led more than 300 people to ambush in the north. Seeing that Imagawa Rōtoshi was really going to run away, he led his men to suddenly attack.
He chased them nearby and shot seven or eight warriors with long bows.
Imagawa Ryotoshi and Imagawa Mitsuhiro had no choice. There was a river to the south, enemies to the north, and the Shaoer clan and Shimazu clan camps to the east, so they could only run to the west.
Without the command of Imagawa Ryotoshi and Imagawa Mitsuhisa, the Imagawa clan's army soon lost the courage to fight. They were personally led by Shao Er Mansada and Shimazu Motohisa to kill more than 2,000 people. The Shao Er clan and Shimazu Motohisa surrendered. The Shimazu family didn't even leave alive. After being captured, they were slaughtered in rows!
It was not without reason that the second son, Manzada and Shimazu Motohisa, started a rebellion and hated the Imagawa clan and did not hesitate to massacre their subordinates.
More than thirty years ago, Imagawa Ryotoshi approached the Shimazu family and hoped to invite Chikuzen daimyo Shao Erfu to meet with him. The Shimazu family received the Imagawa family's guarantee and endorsed the Shaoer family, ensuring that the banquet would be worry-free.
Shaoer Dongzi was relieved and went to Mizushima to attend Imagawa Ryojun's banquet and discuss the situation in Kyushu.
As a result, at the banquet, in front of various famous names and powerful leaders,
Imagawa Zhongqiu killed Shao Erdongzi in a sudden attack. Imagawa Liaojun also accused Shaoerdongzi of colluding with the Southern Dynasty and killed his subordinates together!
The behavior of the Imagawa family made the Shao Er family no longer trust the Imagawa family, and they were always looking for opportunities to take revenge. As the guarantor and endorser, the Shimazu family was also harmed by the Imagawa family.
In a tripartite agreement, if the creditor defaults on the debt, the guarantor will naturally be held liable.
In order to prevent the Shaoer family from attacking the Shimadzu family, and because the Shimazu family hated the Imagawa family's style, and the Imagawa family's ambition was to control the entire Kyushu Island, the Shimazu family, the Shaoer family, and others began to form an alliance and accumulate strength.
I don’t know if there was something wrong with Ashikaga Yoshitomichi’s brain, or it was God’s favor. The Ashikaga shogunate forcefully mobilized daimyo from various places for the Northern Campaign, and actually organized the Imagawa clan, the Shaoer clan, the Shimazu clan, etc. together.
Although Imagawa Ryotoshi and Imagawa Nakaaki have not forgotten the Mizushima Incident, as powerful old figures and die-hard loyalists of the shogunate, they did not pay attention to the Shaoer clan and the Shimazu clan at all, and they did not expect these people to dare to Betray yourself, dare to betray the shogunate!
This led to today's fiasco.
Imagawa Ryotoshi led his men as they ran all the way. Seeing the dense forest in the distance, hope finally ignited. As long as they entered the dense forest, they could use the vegetation to block the sight of these people, reduce the threat of longbows, and then escape!
The jungle is getting closer!
Imagawa Ryoujun was a little tired. After all, he was in his fifties or sixties. Running so far in one breath was really life-threatening.
Imagawa Mitsuru was in his middle age. Seeing that his father couldn't run away, he wanted to pull Imakawa Rōtoshi away, but the pursuers behind him were getting closer and closer. Imagawa Mitsuru gritted his teeth and let go of Imagawa Rōtoshi's hand, regardless of it. Lead the people and run forward.
"You traitor!"
Imagawa Ryojun did not expect that his son would abandon him at the last door and run away for his life alone!
Imagawa Mitsuru also had difficulties. Instead of all of them dying, it would be better to leave one as a seed.
Imagawa Mitsuhiro was aware of this, but not so. When he saw that he was less than twenty steps away from the dense forest, he suddenly saw a man emerging from the dense forest, holding a strange thing in his hand.
call out!
The trigger clicked, the crossbow string trembled, and strong force was poured into the pure iron crossbow arrow. It flew out with the starlight, bringing out a ray of blood. The force was not reduced, and it penetrated into the shoulder of a warrior. And out.
The blood condensed and dripped along the arrow.
Imagawa Manfan staggered and looked up ahead.
It was like a black wave, surging along with the roaring sea wind.
There was a clattering sound, and rows of crossbowmen came forward, forming a fan-shaped half-pack. The army separated in the middle, and a horse stepped out.
Sheng Yong grabbed the riding whip and watched coldly as Imagawa Manfan fell to the ground and died. He turned his attention to Imakawa Ryojun who was guarded by the samurai, raised his hand and waved it gently.
Arrows are like locusts!
The stars are dim and dull.
By the time Shimazu Motoyo and others arrived nearby, Imagawa Jun and others could no longer be seen. There were only a bunch of people like hedgehogs lying on the road.
Shimazu Motoyo stared and shouted in Japanese: "Da Ming, we will leave as agreed."
Sheng Yong took out his ears, raised his riding crop and pointed it at Shimazu Motoyo, followed by a row of arrows, and said: "He was scolding us just now, right?"
Supervisor Sheng nodded.
That's right, speaking to the people of Ming Dynasty in bird language is not a curse.
If you respect Ming Dynasty and are afraid of Ming Dynasty, at least learn Mandarin well before dealing with it.
No matter how bad it is, you can find a few monks and laymen who can speak Mandarin to talk to you. If one person is just yelling there, it is obviously a curse.
Shimazu Motoyo never imagined that Daming would kill him without saying a word!
There was no time to dodge, and there was nowhere to hide. Ming's crossbows had a long range, not to mention that this group of people were already within a hundred steps of the Ming army, and a large number of crossbows were fired in volleys. Who could stop this thing.
Sheng Yong has no intention of cooperating with Shao Er or Shimazu. Damn it, Imagawa Jun’s head needs to be given away by you. It’s not just a matter of words for Daming to want it. Besides, what the brothers want is military merit. Let you go, where will the military glory come from?
"kill!"
Sheng Yong issued a military order.
The roaring Ming army began to advance, led by a mixed army of pikemen and crossbowmen. The pikemen charged with spears to deal with the remaining soldiers, while the crossbowmen followed closely, always alert to the enemy's movements. When they saw someone picking up a longbow, they immediately Shoot.
Of the hundreds of people including Shimazu Motoyo, only about sixty escaped, and the rest were all lost outside the dense forest.
The Ming army was dispatched and pursued quickly.
After several miles of journey, we arrived in no time.
The young men Manzhen and Shimazu Motohisa, who were red-eyed by the killing, were enjoying the victory and the pleasure of having their great revenge. However, unexpectedly, Shimazu Motoyo's remaining sergeants ran back and, with some help from Java, the young men Manzhen and Shimazu were killed. Shimazu Motohisa's expression changed and he quickly organized the sergeants to take precautions.
Young Master Manzhen summoned the monk soldier Nan Lai: "Go and tell the people of the Ming Dynasty that we will retreat ourselves. If they want to attack us for some reason, they will have to fight with each other! At that time, who will live and who will die? There’s no telling!”
Nan Lai took the order and went alone to lobby Sheng Yong.
No
After a long time, Sheng Yong looked at the Japanese troops waiting in the distance and cursed at Supervisor Sheng beside him: "Damn, most of the firearms have been moved away by the navy. We have to use them sparingly and push the Eight Bull Crossbow first." Come out……"
Nan Lai died for unknown reasons.
Later, when compiling history, the historian asked Sheng Yong and then recorded:
When Nan Lai kowtowed, he saw that Sheng Yong was so violent that his liver and gallbladder were split and he died.
As for how Nan Lai died, we can only ask Sheng Yong. Is it because Sheng Yong was ugly and came out to scare people in the middle of the night? That is not easy to explain...
——
Thanks to Tuxue Hengxing for the reward. This is the second leader of the Ming Dynasty. I am happy. Jingxue is very grateful!
