The sound was too noisy, and Hauge was worried that he could not hear the specific situation of the Ming army, so he did not order the man to go to the top of the city. Instead, he hurried down the city in order to understand the situation of the Ming army as soon as possible.
For him, although the fighting was going on in Japan, he didn't have much to worry about. But the news about the Ming army has always been a big stone in his heart. Are you always worried about when you will fall behind?
He quickly arrived at the bottom of the city. As he strode closer to the subordinate, he asked sharply: "Where did the Ming army attack? How far away are they from us?"
Turg and the others who followed him down also had nervous expressions on their faces. They were right behind Haug, staring at the man and listening with a little uneasiness.
The Jianlu who came to report the news took advantage of this moment to stabilize his breathing, and quickly reported to Hauge: "Master, the Ming army did not attack, but after landing on Honshu Island, they attacked Shimonoseki and Tokuyama. The construction of cities in these two places seems to be based on these two places, and then attacks to the north. As for the number of Ming troops, it is probably about 5,000 in Xiaguan and 10,000 in Deshan. However, most of these Ming troops belong to the From the navy of the Ming Dynasty."
After listening to the detailed report, Hauge couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It was still far away from Kyoto and there was no sign of attacking north, which was good.
However, judging from the movements of the Ming army, they are going to fight north after all. Even if Hauge breathed a sigh of relief, his face was not very pretty, and as for his smile, he couldn't even smile.
After glancing back, he waved and shouted: "Let's go back and discuss this matter!"
For the Ming army, it was really a big worry, and he repeatedly warned himself that he must pay attention to it.
He was no longer interested in the carnival in Nagoya. He immediately took the people around him and galloped back to the Chinese army camp outside the city, and then immediately ordered a military meeting with his close men.
For this military meeting, he did not summon any Japanese subordinates, but people from his own clan, including the traitor Bao Chengxian, to discuss the matter.
After explaining the situation, Hauge glanced at the people below with a stern face and asked them: "The Ming army will obviously not let us go. What should we do next?"
Turge was already thinking about this on the way here. At this time, when he heard Hauge's question, he turned to look at the others, including the traitor Bao Chengxian. None of them spoke immediately, so he reported to Hauge: "Master, judging from this situation, the Ming army should not attack northward in the short term." Signs. In this case, we might as well speed up and destroy the Tokugawa shogunate, and then gather the daimyo from all over the country to form an alliance to deal with the Ming army together!"
The Tokugawa shogunate was the original ruler of the Japanese country. If this was not eliminated, the new replacement would not be able to suppress the Japanese country.
Turge's meaning was very clear, which was to end the war in Japan as soon as possible. After killing the Tokugawa shogunate, he would appropriately give up some of his interests, win over other daimyo, and form an alliance to fight against the Ming army.
Upon hearing his idea, many Jianlu leaders nodded and agreed with his proposal.
However, Hauge learned the lesson. Seeing that most of the people below agreed with this idea, he frowned and suddenly said: "Then if the Ming army is just showing an illusion, maybe they will take advantage of us." What if we don’t pay attention and suddenly launch an attack on us? Don’t forget, we have suffered such losses many times!”
It is said that once bitten by a snake, fear of well ropes for ten years, Hauge personally experienced the loss of Liaodong, and watched the Japanese army be beaten to pieces by the Ming army. He has come to an experience: all their people thought that the Ming army would be like this, then The Ming army often doesn't do this! The more they are afraid of something, the more the Ming army will do!
Now his men think that the Ming army will not attack north immediately, so Hauge's conclusion is that the Ming army will definitely attack north immediately; what they are most worried about now is that the Ming army will attack them, so the Ming army will definitely attack them. will attack them.
At this time, after hearing Hauge's reminder, the Jianlu in the Chinese military tent were speechless for a moment. If we go by previous experience, especially if the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty personally led the army, this is definitely the case.
However, we are in the Japanese country now, and the Emperor of Ming Dynasty is not leading the army. It is impossible for this to happen again, right? Besides, if the Ming army was so powerful, how did they defeat the Ming army in the past?
Thinking this way, some Jianlu were a little disapproving. However, they did not dare to go against Hauge's wishes, so they had no choice but to remain silent.
Hauge stared at what they were looking at. Seeing their expressions, how could he not know what they were thinking. Suddenly, he was unhappy. What do you mean, do you think you were scared into a coward by the Ming army? Be careful and you won't make a big mistake. If you lose, where can you escape next? Now there is no way out!
He was thinking this, and just when he was about to get angry, he suddenly saw Bao Cheng, who had been lowering his head, raise his head first, walked out of the queue and said to Hauge: "I think that the master is wise, and the Ming army is probably trying to confuse us. Build the plank road openly and secretly visit Chencang!"
Having said this, he turned to look at the others, and then reminded in a deep voice: "Don't forget, everyone, the Ming army has a navy, and it doesn't have to be fought from the land to the north! This is the Japanese country, and the Ming navy is The effect is great, they can even land at close range and directly attack Kyoto!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was surprised, even Hauge himself was quite surprised.
Although they, the Jianlu, came to the Japanese Kingdom by boat, in their hearts they still did not take the navy seriously. All they thought about was the battle on land.
Of course, it can also be said that Hauge's headquarters has never had its own navy and has been fighting on land, forgetting that Japan is an island country and how important the navy is.
It is absolutely possible for the Ming army to attack from the sea and land directly on the seaside closest to Kyoto!
When they were all shocked, they heard Bao Chengxian say again: "We can no longer afford to lose. As long as we are defeated once and the losses are too large, even if the Ming army does not destroy us, the Tokugawa shogunate will definitely take the opportunity to destroy us!" "
Upon hearing this, Hauge immediately stared at him and asked, "What should we do?"
Turge was also anxious and asked: "Then what should we do? The Ming army has a navy, and we are unable to defend against this broken island! Otherwise..."
After hesitating for a while, he added to Hauge: "How about the master orders that no one is allowed to live a hundred miles away from the seaside and everyone moves inward. Even if the Ming army wants to attack us, they will have to walk a long way overland. In this way OK?"
When Hauge heard this, he frowned and immediately started thinking.
After thinking about it for a while, I felt that this method was the best solution. So, he raised his head and was about to nod in agreement, but he happened to see something wrong with Bao Chengxian's expression. He couldn't help but wonder, could this Mingguo have always been resourceful and have some countermeasures?
One thing, he had to admit, those born in Mingguo usually had their brains manipulated.
Thinking of this, Hauge asked Bao Chengxian: "What do you think? Let me know."
Not to mention, Bao Chengxian does have some ideas. When Hauge asked him, he touched his sparse goat's white beard and said: "Master, I think that to deal with the Ming army, we must be surprised."
Hearing his words, it seemed that he already had a good strategy to deal with the Ming army. Hauge couldn't help but feel happy and asked quickly: "What's the way to surprise?"
If he didn't expect it, then it was probably a surprise. Being able to defeat the Ming army was what he had always dreamed about.
However, Turg next to him was a little unconvinced, and immediately followed Hauge and said: "How to deal with the Ming army? They have a navy, but we don't. Should we ambush them and catch them by surprise when they land?" But when will they land and where will they land? Who knows, can you tell me how to catch them by surprise?"
Bao Cheng listened first, but smiled slightly and said: "Of course we have no way of knowing where the Ming army will land or when they will land! However, one thing is very certain, that is, Xiaguan and Deshan! "
Having said this, he turned to look at Hauge and said in a very confident tone: "Master, the Ming army should never have expected that we would attack Xiaguan and Deshan. This is just a surprise. In addition, the reason why we attacked here Another advantage of these two places is that if the Ming army is severely defeated, even if their navy plans to land and attack us, they will have to shelve it. As long as we give the Ming army in Japan a sufficient blow, the Ming army will It will not be possible to mobilize troops from within the pass for a while. Maybe we will give up the idea of continuing to attack the Japanese country because of the excessive loss of troops."
Upon hearing his words, all Jianlu could not help but be stunned. Indeed, they were all frightened by the Ming army, and they really never thought of taking the initiative to attack the Ming army. Their original thought was that if the Ming army didn't attack them, it would be a blessing.
When Hauge thought about it this way, he suddenly felt happy.
Bao Chengxian's proposal was not only unexpected, but also had considerable benefits if it succeeded. This can be regarded as a very good move to replace defense with offense.
So, without waiting for other Jianlu to express their opinions, Hauge immediately asked impatiently: "Then how do we attack the Ming army in Xiaguan and Deshan? How can we severely damage the Ming army?"
When the other Jianlu heard this, they all lowered their voices and held their breaths, listening with their ears perked up. It is really for them to want to defeat the Ming army too much.
Bao Cheng listened first, smiled slightly, and said confidently: "Master doesn't ask, the slave has to say it. Just now, the slave has thought carefully about the completely feasible strategy. I dare not say that I will definitely defeat the Ming army, but basically it is It’s certain…”
As he spoke, he stated his thoughts in detail, which made Hauge and others' eyes light up.
