Chapter 437: Destroy his country and destroy his species.

The scouts sent out came back much faster than expected. Before the interrogation was over, several scouts came back one after another. When he saw a few people, Zhang Mao was startled for a moment, and then asked: "Why are you coming back?"

So fast? Have you found out all the information that I asked you to wait for?"

"When I returned to Zhang Shuai, I roughly made a thorough investigation. There were about six Japanese camps about one or two miles away from here. There were about one or two thousand Japanese in them. After passing the camps and a few miles further, there were

There is a Japanese city and the strength of the troops. I and others have tried many methods, but they really can’t find out. Please punish Zhang Shuai."

After hearing this, Zhang Mao had no intention of punishing him. These days, the scouts who inquired about information were either secretly observing or asking questions by grabbing their tongues.

This so-called tongue is naturally meant to be caught alive and forced to ask for information, but in this country of Japan, not everyone understands foreign languages ​​​​like the prince. Even if they were caught, they would not be able to ask anything at all if the two parties do not understand the language.

To observe in secret is basically to sneak into the city, but the language barrier will undoubtedly greatly increase the risk of exposure.

So these people probably just went there to investigate, and then came back to report.

No wonder he came back so quickly.

Zhang Mao was thinking in his mind and asked about another piece of news that caught his attention, "Is there a city just a few miles away from the shore?"

"About five or six miles away."

"What is the scale? Is it a city or a camp?"

"It's not big in scale. It's probably bigger than Gunsan City in North Korea."

"That's really a city."

Zhang Mao's face darkened a little, "This island looks so big, but these Japanese built the city so close to the shore. How many cities should there be on this island?"

He originally thought that there were not many forts on this island, but there were six forts and a city just a few miles away from the shore. So how many would there be on the entire island from point to point?

This is by no means good news.

After all, siege warfare is the most difficult battle to fight, and often involves the greatest casualties.

The more cities there are, the more casualties there are.

"Don't worry, Zhang Shuai, there shouldn't be many cities on this island."

Hearing this sudden sound, Zhang Mao turned his head and saw Xia Yuan emerging from the interrogation barracks behind him. He opened his mouth and asked: "Not many cities? Your Highness has come out of interrogation?"

"No, these Japanese are very tough-talking. It looks like they need to be punished."

"Then how do you know there aren't many cities on this island?"

"Look at the landforms. Didn't Zhang Shuai realize that there are mountains on both sides?"

Xia Yuan pointed to the left and right sides with his hands. The terrain of Sado Island is very strange. If viewed from a high altitude, the entire island looks like a tilted I-shape, or a parallelogram.

There are two almost completely parallel mountains on both sides of the word I. In this era of backward productivity, the mountains on both sides have not yet been developed. They are all virgin forests, with high mountains and giant trees. They are not suitable for survival at all, let alone building a city.

Only the middle part of the island is a plain, suitable for living.

The entire island covers nearly a thousand square kilometers, but the plain in the middle is only about a hundred square kilometers, and there are inevitably smaller hills in it. Even if a city is built in such a large place, how many cities can be built?

"On both sides are huge mountains as far as the eye can see, which means that the only place in the middle that can build a city is the area in the middle. In my opinion, there are about three or five cities on the entire island."

Zhang Mao was silent for a while and then said: "No matter how big the city is on the island, this city must be captured. In order to prevent other cities from rushing to reinforce, it must be done quickly. Send my commander's order to the generals and let them come to discuss the matter.

.”

This is the general's order to recruit soldiers to attack the city.

"Zhang Shuai." Xia Yuan shouted, and then continued: "I would like to ask you, how does Zhang Shuai plan to fight this battle?"

Zhang Mao frowned, "What does Xia Rongzheng have to say?"

"I don't dare to say anything when I see you. I just want to ask what kind of preparation Zhang Shuai has for this attack."

"situation?"

"It means what attitude you use to attack the city and what purpose you go for."

"When you say this, I can't understand you anymore. Tell me, what is Xia Rongzheng's purpose?"

Xia Yuan immediately replied: "This island is less than a hundred miles away from the mainland of Japan, and its geographical location is particularly important. When we capture this island, we can use it as a stronghold to advance, attack, retreat, and defend. Therefore, this is the first step to attack the city.

The first battle can be said to be the top priority.

The lower official believes that whether it is attacking this island or the subsequent conquest of the Japanese mainland, we should use ruthless force to attack the city at first sight, plunder the land at every sight, and kill the thieves at sight!"

Hearing this, Zhang Mao was immediately moved and asked: "Are you going to destroy the country?"

Xia Yuan asked strangely: "Tens of thousands of troops took the trouble to come here by boat. Isn't it to destroy the country? Is it because they are here to check in for tourism?"

"."

Zhang Mao choked at these words, and Xia Yuan pointed to the bodies that were about to be burned, and then pointed to the beach stained red with blood, "Zhang Shuai, this is a war. Since it is a war, then this is a war."

The goal is to seek the greatest result, and what is the greatest result? To destroy the country, exterminate the species, clear out the royal city, destroy the palace, destroy the ancestral temple, that’s it!”

At the end, Xia Yuan almost burst out every word from his teeth. Zhang Mao's heart was beating wildly, and his expression was strange, with strangeness and confusion.

"Are you trying to... massacre the city?"

"Xiaguan is a scholar. The sage is called benevolence, but the word benevolence also depends on who is right. In the battle of Baijiangkou in the Tang Dynasty, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty beat the Japanese to fear and pain, but they only left them a breath.

This opportunity allows them to come back thousands of years later, invade our borders and kill my people."

“I don’t know how many of the people on the southeastern coast who lost their lives to Japanese swords were blaming and regretting before they died.

It’s a pity that during the Battle of Baijiangkou, China was so powerful at that time that it beat the Japanese until they were unable to fight back, but why didn’t they beat them so hard that they would never be able to stand up again?

I blame the Tang Dynasty for giving these Japanese a chance to stand up, so that they could vent their hatred on future generations."

A puzzling fog appeared in Xia Yuan's eyes, and his voice sounded a little erratic, "On this occasion, what I have to do is not to let future generations blame us. Now that

Now that we have entered the territory of Japan, we should try our best to eliminate future troubles for our descendants.

Don't let future generations blame and complain, don't let enemies have the opportunity to rise in the future, don't let future generations read history books and read that tens of thousands of soldiers of the Ming Dynasty boarded the Japanese country, but failed to complete their achievements when they clearly could have done something.

In the first battle, like the Tang Dynasty, it gave the Japanese a chance to breathe, and future generations will feel regret for us."

"What's more, among the crimes of the Japanese listed in the document to punish the Japanese, the biggest one was that they had harassed the southeastern provinces for many years, causing the death of countless people.

We are here to collect this blood debt this time. The blood debt must be tasted with blood. Otherwise, how can we pay homage to the souls of the dead?

Now is not the time to talk about women's kindness. Since you want to fight, you can't have the slightest kindness. Kindness to the enemy is cruelty to yourself.

Zhang Shuai, you are kind but don't control the army, you should understand this better than your subordinates."

Zhang Mao stared at him for a long time without saying a word, as if he wanted to see something from his face. After a while, he looked away and said, "Pass the general's order to all the soldiers in the army. In this expedition to the Japanese country, every city and place must be captured."

Don’t seal the knife for three days.”
