Give an order.
The New Army soldiers held their guns and began searching streets and houses.
The combat effectiveness of the army comes from its organization and discipline.
Only if it is strictly organized can it be called an army.
Otherwise, they will be stragglers with no combat effectiveness at all.
When the Japanese pirates and their attached traitor servants gave up resistance and chose to flee, they lost their organization and were no longer an army.
They dispersed and hid, no longer in contact with each other.
The new army that came to search was still a complete army.
Comparing the two, the outcome is naturally conceivable.
When the Japanese pirates and the attached traitor army gathered together, they were unable to compete with the new army.
After spreading out, let alone.
Songjiang Fucheng is not big.
Basically all the adult men in the city were killed.
Even the elderly and children are few left.
Only a handful of young women were left behind for the Japanese pirates to rape and enjoy themselves.
This way.
They can no longer hide among the people.
The new army blocked and surrounded the neighborhoods one by one and searched them one by one.
The famous Japanese pirates and the traitor servants who attached to them were soon found one after another.
It's easy to capture them without even shooting.
The New Army soldiers tied them up, captured them, and made them all kneel on the ground.
They thought they would be safe by hiding, but in fact they fell into a trap and completely lost their last chance to escape.
Zhu Yunzhen got out of the carriage.
Jiang Wei stood aside, his eyes filled with heat.
His people were all numb.
I just witnessed a miracle yesterday, and it happened again today.
When the army marched quickly not far from Songjiang Fucheng, Jiang Wei was still thinking about how to attack the city.
After all, the new army carried no siege equipment, not even a ladder.
Although the power of the flintlock musket was extraordinary, sieging a city was no better than fighting on the plains.
You can't climb a city wall several feet high with bare hands, right?
Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the army had entered the city and even occupied all four city gates, making it impossible for the Japanese pirates and rebels to escape.
Everything is as natural as flowing clouds and flowing water.
If we say yesterday's victory, it was the crushing of new weapons.
It was the terror of the flintlock that broke the myth of the power of Japanese pirates.
Today's victory comes from superb military command.
Seemingly simple and unpretentious, Songjiang Prefecture was captured effortlessly.
In fact, in this military operation, every step of the calculation was extremely precise.
It is no exaggeration to describe it as "predicting the enemy's opportunities and making clever calculations".
From the pursuit of the Jiaxing City defenders last night, to today's rapid march, to the charge into the city without hesitation just now, and even occupied the four city gates...
It was as if he were a peerless master of swordsmanship, attacking one after another in a row, and the opponent didn't even have the strength to parry, let alone fight back.
In other words, this series of complex moves, in the eyes of outsiders, is just a light sword, and the opponent has already fallen.
With such superb military command methods, I am afraid that even the king of Zhongshan, Xu Da, and the king of Kaiping, Chang Yuchun, would be unable to match them and would be content to be inferior.
If nothing else, Jiang Wei asked himself, if he were to take command, when the army reached the Songjiang Mansion City, they would stop first, rest and reorganize, and at the same time send people to investigate the situation, and then consider whether to attack the city.
Most generals would do this, and this is the right thing to do.
But if this happens, the Japanese pirates will close the city gate.
The Ming army will lose its fighter opportunities as a result.
How could it be possible to enter the city so easily?
His Highness Taisun, on the other hand, did not hesitate at all and directly ordered the attack on the city.
He had already made an extremely accurate judgment.
What kind of terrifying ability is this!
Jiang Yu secretly glanced at Zhu Yunzhen's face, and seeing that he was calm and calm, he felt as if everything was under his control.
At this moment, in Jiang Wei's eyes, Zhu Yunzhen was no longer a seven-year-old child, but a god walking in the world.
If I used to occasionally worry about him because of his identity as a child, I would sometimes think that maybe I shouldn't listen to him and do things.
So now, after a series of military commands that seemed like magic and miracles, Zhu Yunzhen's identity as a child only deepened Jiang Yu's admiration for him.
People always despise children.
Unless this child proves that he is "Nezha"!
Then people will completely change their view of him.
Zhu Yunxuan is the child who gave this proof.
The last trace of doubt about him disappeared at this moment.
There is only deep joy and surrender.
If Zhu Yunzhen ordered him to do something now, no matter how outrageous it was, Jiang Yu would execute the order without hesitation.
The captured Japanese pirates and traitor servants also looked over.
The carriage was tightly surrounded and protected by so many people. There was no doubt that the person inside was their commander.
Just seeing Zhu Yunzhen's appearance, the Japanese pirates and traitor servants were stunned.
Turns out to be a child?
The person who commanded the army to defeat them and capture Songjiang Fucheng was just a child of six or seven years old.
After a brief moment of shock, there was deep fear.
To them, this goes against common sense.
But because of this, he was even more shocked and frightened.
In their eyes, Zhu Yunzhen was like a god sent from heaven to destroy him.
The army in front of us is the heavenly army sent by God.
That's why they had such terrifying weapons and defeated them effortlessly.
"You...you...you, who are you guys?"
Kato Shoichi, the captured Japanese pirate leader, asked in horror.
"I am the one sent by God to destroy you all." Zhu Yunxuan snorted coldly, his childish voice ringing out.
The more so, the more terrifying it will be if it falls in the ears of Japanese pirates and traitorous servants.
At this time, the sky was gradually getting dark.
The surrounding guards raised torches.
The atmosphere in the city that had just experienced war was extremely desolate.
When the crisp and childish voice echoed in the air, it added a bit of abnormal weirdness.
It sounds like a devil.
Godlike.
Was it really sent from God?
Kato Shoichi was stunned.
All the captured Japanese pirates and traitor servants were stunned there.
Even the girls on the street not far away, who had just been rescued and were still in shock, were also stunned.
Have gods come to earth?
Sudden.
A traitor servant who was tied up struggled to move his body and kowtowed hard to Zhu Yunxuan.
It's like pounding garlic.
"God, have mercy on me, God, have mercy on me! I will never dare again! I will never dare again!"
He screamed uncontrollably, panicking to the point of losing his soul.
God?
This time it was Zhu Yunzhen's turn to be stunned.
Did he really think of me as a god sent from heaven?
Just as he was about to speak, he saw a second traitor and the servants of the army kowtowed.
"God have mercy on me, God have mercy on me..."
Then, like a burning flame, it spread quickly.
Third place, fourth place, fifth place...
The traitor servants all cried and begged for mercy.
When they were first captured, there were still many diehards among them.
Thinking that the worst possible outcome would be death.
It was originally a losing business.
But when I saw a strange scene in front of me, I saw that the person commanding the army was just a child of six or seven years old.
I heard him admit from his own mouth that he was sent by God.
The mentality of the traitors and servants completely collapsed.
People in this era more or less believe in ghosts and gods.
Even if they occasionally become brave and dare to smash the Bodhisattva in the temple or destroy the Taoist statue in the Taoist temple, it does not prevent them from sometimes praying for the protection of the gods.
Especially when there is a real "god" appearing in front of them.
Even if you don't care about life and death in this life, you will still consider the next life.
More importantly, seeing the "god", the last bit of psychological defense completely collapsed.
Even thinking is redundant.
There is only instinctive, deep fear and worship of gods.
Emotions are contagious.
When all the traitor servants knelt down, kowtowed to the "gods" and begged for mercy, the Japanese pirates were also completely shocked.
Is the little doll on the carriage really a god sent by God to punish them?
No wonder it appears suddenly!
No wonder his army all holds those incomprehensible artifacts!
No wonder their fighting power is so terrifying and impossible to fight against!
It must be.
Otherwise, there would be no point in having a six- or seven-year-old boy command an army.
How could the army listen to him?
As a result, the Japanese pirates also collapsed.
"God, have mercy on me!"
The Japanese pirate leader Kato Shoichi was the first to kowtow and beg for mercy.
In an instant, all the Japanese pirates followed.
If they were facing the Ming army, they would still have the courage to fight and fight to the death.
But facing the "gods", there is no longer any fighting spirit.
How can man fight against God?
Seeing this scene, the new army officers and soldiers looked at each other in shock.
The imperial guards who were guarding him were also dumbfounded.
Unknowingly, they seemed to be infected invisibly.
At this moment, I really thought that Zhu Yunzhen was not a human being, but a god.
It turned out that in the corner of the street, the girls who were still in shock also knelt down to pay homage to the "god".
Zhu Yunzhen's face suddenly turned red.
He casually said that Jilai was sent from heaven to destroy you.
I really never thought about becoming a magic stick!
He is also planning to announce his family status and tell them that he is the emperor's grandson of the Ming Dynasty?
What the hell is going on?
Do you really think of me as a god?
Looking at the torches in the hands of the soldiers in golden robes and the solemn atmosphere around them, I remembered that I was only seven years old, and this body was indeed a bit too small.
Such an abnormal scene would be easy to imagine in the eyes of an uninformed person.
What's more, these people had just experienced a major defeat and were captured by the new army.
At this time, seeing that such a young child can command thousands of troops, it is inevitable that rich associations will arise from this.
Now, I am afraid that even if I tell the Japanese pirates and these traitorous servants that I am the grandson of the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, and the army I lead is the new army trained by Ming Dynasty, they will have no doubt about his identity as a god.
After all, gods have a human identity, which is very reasonable in folk stories and is in line with people's cognition.
Zhu Yunzhen couldn't help but laugh.
Have I changed from the great grandson of the Ming Emperor to a god walking on earth?
but.
This doesn't seem like a bad thing.
It just makes the implementation of my next plan go more smoothly.
Perhaps, we can take the opportunity to make some changes.
"You burned, killed, looted, committed all kinds of evil, and committed such great crimes. It can be seen that the people are easy to abuse, and the gods are hard to bully. You are not afraid of going to the eighteenth level of hell, going up the mountain of swords, and going down to the pan of oil, for thousands of years. , to be tortured forever?”
Since they think they are gods, they might as well pretend to be like them.
Anyway, he won't admit it, and he doesn't bother to deny it.
These words are not only spoken by gods.
Human generals can also be reprimanded in the same way.
"God, I have no choice but to do this! Our family has no fertile land. Since Zhang Shicheng's defeat, we have no way to make a living. We can only make a living by drying salt and fishing along the coast, but the imperial court has banned the sea. My livelihood is completely at risk, so I have no choice but to fall into the trap of being a bandit..."
"God, I am the same..."
"God, I have no way to go..."
The famous traitors and servants of the army all confided their difficulties.
Everyone said they were desperate and had no choice but to do so.
Zhu Yunzhen listened quietly until the voice gradually calmed down.
He just spoke coldly.
"A good one is desperate, a good one is forced to do something."
"Tell yourself, is there really no other way to go? Or do you think it would be easier to burn, kill, and loot?"
"You think you have no choice but what about the people of Songjiang City?"
"What have they done wrong? Are they going to be slaughtered by you?"
"Are you forced to collude with Japanese pirates and harm your compatriots?"
"You guys open your eyes and see how ravaged Songjiang City is now? Do you still have the nerve to say that you are doing such evil because you are desperate?"
In an instant, all the traitors and servants fell silent.
Zhu Yunzhen's face turned pale.
Of course he knew that what these people said was indeed somewhat true.
But in this era, limited by technological civilization and productivity levels, except for a very small number of officials, landlords, wealthy businessmen, etc., the vast majority of people are struggling to live at the poverty line.
Having a full stomach is not an easy task for ordinary people in this era.
When it comes to being forced, that can be said for everyone.
What's more, these guys are still scum who colluded with Japanese pirates and betrayed the nation. How can we spare them?
However, there is no rush.
His eyes looked at the Japanese pirates on the side.
"God!"
Seeing Zhu Yunzhen angrily denounced the traitorous servant army, Kato Zhengda dared not kowtow, but did not even dare to beg for mercy.
"Your sins are so grave that even death will not be enough to apologise."
"However, Gu can give you a chance to atone for your sins, and take Gu's heavenly army to your base camp to completely eliminate all sins."
Although the Japanese pirates wandered from the Japanese country.
But the Japanese country was too far away, and it was impossible to attack Songjiang Fucheng by boat from there.
What's more, most Japanese pirates are basically samurai from the losing side in the Japanese civil war.
With nowhere to go in the Japanese country, he wandered to the sea and became a Japanese pirate.
There must be their strongholds near the coast or on islands not far away.
Zhu Yunzhen had never thought that he would find the Japanese pirates' stronghold this time.
This is not an easy task.
We can only do it step by step.
His plan was to find the pirate ship and burn it.
Daming Sea Ban.
Private ships were confiscated by the government or simply destroyed.
As long as the Japanese pirates' boat is destroyed, they will not be able to leave.
These people dared to attack the Ming Dynasty and massacre the people. Zhu Yunzhen did not intend to let any of them go.
but now.
He changed his mind. Since these people thought he was a god walking on earth, he might be able to use this identity to find out where their stronghold was.
Then they went straight to Huanglong, cut the grass and roots, and eradicated the Japanese pirates' stronghold in one fell swoop.
Kato Masaichi was startled.
He didn't understand why the gods didn't know where their base camp was.
Aren’t gods supposed to know everything?
But immediately, Kato Shoichi automatically figured out that the gods were going to use human methods to destroy them.
That's why the army was brought.
Because of this, he was given the opportunity to make meritorious deeds.
right.
That's for sure.
The location of the base camp is top secret.
If the other party is a mortal, even if he is forced to use the most cruel punishment, even if he is cut into pieces with thousands of knives, skinned and stuffed into grass, it is impossible to confess.
Kato Shoichi considers himself a true samurai and will never be a shameless traitor.
But in the face of gods, can this still be considered betrayal?
It can only be said to be redemption!
Kato Shoichi's tightly bound body kowtowed with difficulty: "Yes, Lord God, I am willing to lead the way!"
