Chapter 711: Pengcheng
"You are more than death, especially you, Shang An!" Shang Bin knelt in front of him and shivered the fat King of Ryukyu.
After Japan occupied Ryukyu, his seventh brother Shang'an made accomplices for the tiger with a group of ministers and massacred tens of thousands of Ryukyu people who resisted Japan.
In recent years, in order to win the favor of the Japanese army, the women of the Ryukyu family even forced to go to the Japanese military camp and allowed the Japanese soldiers to humiliate them.
In terms of taxation, Shangan even paid heavy taxes to the people of Ryukyu and won the recognition of him by the shogunate.
All kinds of behaviors are worse than beasts.
From Shang'an to the Ryukyu officials who helped the evildoer killed thousands of times, and it was difficult to relieve the hatred in his heart.
Looking at Zhou Yi, he said, "General, kill them, these people's hands are covered with blood from the people of Ryukyu."
"Drag them all out and behead them!" Zhou Yi shouted.
Upon hearing this, the Ryukyu ministers kneeling on the ground were so scared that they collapsed on the ground and kept begging for mercy.
There are also some Ryukyu ministers who are shit and urine flowing.
Since the arrest of Ryukyu King Shang An, he was so scared that his body was trembling with distance and could not speak a word. Now he fainted directly.
After receiving the order, the Marines dragged all the Ryukyu ministers in the hall out.
After a while, cries and screams rang one after another, and then returned to peace.
At this time, Shang Bin said to the ministers behind him: "You will immediately take over the various Ryukyu offices and sentence the Ryukyu officials in the official offices to the crimes. Those who are extremely guilty will be killed without mercy. Secondly, those who should be imprisoned will be imprisoned. Those who can use it will be used."
"Yes, the king." The officials of Ryukyu shouted in unison.
After killing Shang'an, Shang Bin is the King of Ryukyu at this moment.
Immediately, they turned around and walked out.
Zhou Yi transferred more than a thousand soldiers to take over the official office.
Then he said, "You are a messy palace. You won't have dinner here tonight. Let's talk about it when you take down the entire Ryukyu Kingdom."
There are also South Island and North Island in the north and south directions of Nakajima, and they only occupied Nakajima.
Shang Bin smiled and said, "When I take over Ryukyu, I will treat the generals and soldiers."
The Marine soldiers were not allowed to invade the people and spent a night in the Ryukyu royal city.
The next day, Zhou Yi ordered Pan Chang to take over the South Island and the North Island.
After two days of battle, all the remaining eight thousand Japanese soldiers were annihilated.
at the same time.
News of Shang Bin returning to Ryukyu spread throughout the Ryukyu Kingdom.
Because the Marines did not violate anything, the people of Ryukyu also walked onto the streets.
At this time, they learned that Shang An and the ministers who were extremely guilty were all executed.
Moreover, King Shang Bin overturned Shang'an's government orders, and the heavy taxes were gone, and the women who suffered in the Japanese military camp also returned home.
"The king is back, and the hard days of Ryukyu have finally come to an end." The old people in Ryukyu Kingdom cried bitterly.
The young and strong people had tears in their eyes, although they only learned about the prince of Ryukyu through the stories of the old people.
But the decrees introduced by Shang Bin have won their hearts.
With the old people, they came to the palace, knelt all over the ground, and kowtowed to the palace.
Shang Bin was wearing a royal robe and waved to the people on the wall of the palace.
Zhou Yili stood beside Shang Bin, and he said, "You are indeed a little bit popular."
Shang Bin's face was full of smiles, and he held Zhou Yi's hand and waved to the people, "It all depends on the kindness of His Highness and the bloody battles of his soldiers. From now on, Ryukyu will be my Shang Bin's Ryukyu, and your Highness's Ryukyu."
"Hahaha..." Zhou Yi laughed.
The location of Ryukyu is very important. The South Island, Central Island and North Island extend for more than 600 miles, lying between Yizhou and Japan.
After controlling here, the Navy's range of activities will be greatly expanded.
Without carrying a supply ship, they can also expand their range of activities from Yanzhou to Yizhou waters.
At the same time, merchant ships will also benefit from this.
After all, Ryukyu is a transit point for trade between Japan and Western countries.
...
Pengcheng.
While Zhou Yi took down Ryukyu, Chang Wei led the army to arrive here.
From Lucheng to here, there are 600 miles apart.
Except for taking Yicheng in one day, they spent almost all their time on the road.
After all, from Lucheng to Yicheng, there are basically mountain roads all the way.
But after passing Yicheng, there is an endless plain.
They walked for a day and didn't even see a mountain.
It was not until Pengcheng that there were scattered hills standing on the earth.
However, these hills are basically all alone and are not connected in pieces.
There are large areas of farmland between the two mountains, which does not affect their marching at all, nor does it provide a natural barrier to Pengcheng.
"No wonder the grain from the world comes from the Xie family. There are farmland, lakes and rivers everywhere." Looking at the head of Pengcheng, Qin Shan sighed.
Passing the channel: "What Xie family, we will be here soon."
"That's not it." Lu Chang pinched.
Along the way, the speed of the collapse of the army of the powerful clan was basically equal to the speed of their march.
Pengcheng is also very good at it.
After saying that, the three of them looked at each other and laughed.
Chang Wei ignored the three of them.
He was looking at Pengcheng intently.
Since ancient times, Pengcheng has been a must-fight place for military strategists.
The reason is that the Huai River is from Pengcheng to the south.
Taking down Pengcheng is equivalent to controlling Huai River.
If the counties and counties south of the Huai River control the Huai River will have no natural danger to rely on, and will only be swallowed by the enemy whales.
Their only way is to escape to Jinling and defend against the enemy with the natural danger of Jiujiang.
That is why the powerful clans hoarded heavy troops here and fought with them.
Win, defend the Huai River, and the counties and counties in the south are safe and sound.
If you lose, you can delay the attack of Yanzhou's troops.
According to the news sent by the detective, these days of retreat, the powerful clans recruited private soldiers of the powerful clans.
The private soldiers of the rich and powerful people who collapsed from Qizhou, as well as the private soldiers of the rich and powerful people who came from Yuzhou, Ningzhou and Bozhou were about 300,000.
Half of them gathered here.
The remaining half continued to move south and followed the army of the tribe toward Huaicheng.
But even so, there were about 300,000 people in Pengcheng.
The soldiers of the Xie family, Wang family, Han family and other powerful clans each have 50,000 troops, and 150,000 private soldiers of the rich clan.
Although these powerful private soldiers were like native chickens and tiles in their eyes.
But so many soldiers piled up in a city will still cause them some trouble.
At least it will cause the royal family to pay more casualties.
And I am afraid that I can't get Pengcheng in one day, and it will take several days.
However, they had to fight and go south bypassing the city, which was equivalent to handing over the back of the royal family's personal army to these 300,000 soldiers.
"It's not too late for you to be happy when you take down Pengcheng." Chang Wei put away his telescope and "prepare to attack the city!"
In response, Qin Shan and the other two returned to their respective troops.
Immediately, they sent soldiers to dig trenches in the direction of the city wall.
Although this new tactic is monotonous and boring, it is very effective every time.
It can often win with minimal casualties.
This war only took more time, and it required trenches to protect the safety of the soldiers.
