Chapter 687: The Japanese Raiders Against Ma Fengyun (2)

The nine thousand army led by Tadao Sakai, the old man from Japan, came to the East China Sea of ​​Tsushima Island. It did not pass through the strait between the upper and lower islands of Tsushima Island, but landed on the east coast of Tsushima Island. The Japanese had also heard of the powerful artillery of the Ponu Army, saying that a gunship of the Ponu Army Navy could chase and fight the Japanese pirates on Jeju Island with a gunship. However, today they were lucky today and did not see the Ponu Army gunship. Two clutches in the north could not see the flag clearly. Facing the powerful Japanese fleet, they seemed to be unable to do anything earth-shaking.

Tadari Sakai was still very cautious at the beginning of the entire landing process. He only let more than 600 foots, led by six captains of the Six Left Guard, Jitachi Aoyama, slowly approach the gentle Takamashima Beach. When the boat approached the coast, Jitachi Aoyama pulled out his sword and jumped off the boat and ran towards the beach quickly. As Jitachi Aoyama waded through the waist-deep sea, the heads and players in bamboo armor behind him jumped into the shallow sea like dumplings. Jitachi Aoyama stared at the continuous hills a hundred feet away with vigilance, as if looking for clues hidden by the enemy behind the mountain.

In the early morning, the sound of the waves slapping on the beach was only the gentle sound of the wind. Aoyama Jitachi did not let the followers line up on the beach, but rushed to the five-zhang hill a hundred feet away. When the Japanese landing troops stood panting and looked west, a large area of ​​green and smooth grass appeared in front of everyone. The peaks were towering into the clouds more than ten miles away in the distance, and the green pine forest was refreshing. Aoyama Jitachi, who had participated in many wars between Daming, still noticed a lot of strange things in peace.

Most Japanese officials knew that Tsushima Island was a fishing island, and there were not many fertile fields on Tsushima Island, and most of the residents on the island were fishermen. Take the grass in front of you for example. The grass that seemed to grow well could not be planted with rice. There were no traces of animal movement within a radius of more than ten miles, and there were few birds in the clear sky. At this time, Jitachi Aoyama turned his eyes and looked behind him. A large number of Japanese troops were approaching quickly from the red seal ship to the shore. He did not stop too much, and led more than 600 subordinates to search and advance ten miles westward. He thought that the enemy would be hidden in the dense forest ahead, but when Jitachi Aoyama and his friends came to the foot of the mountain, they still did not find any trace of the Posses' Army.

The old man Sakai Tadari, who had been watching on the iron armored ship, saw that he had not seen the enemy for more than an hour, so he led his guards to land on the shore. He did not camp at Ping, but waited for news from the front of the van Aoyama Shitachi tribe. After more than two hours, the forward came to report, and after preliminary search, no trace of the enemy was found within ten miles ahead. At this time, Tadari Sakai changed the boat from the iron armored ship to land on Tsushima Island. Sakai Tadari was also a veteran, and he was also very surprised why the Posou Army was hiding in Yanyuan City and could not meet the enemy outside the wilderness.

The Japanese shogunate had long heard of the new overlords of the grasslands, which were emerging overlords thousands of miles away. The news obtained by the Japanese merchants who smuggled with the Southern Zhili of the Ming Dynasty said that starting from the year of the Ming Dynasty, the overlords on the grasslands were replaced by a subway army of the Ming Dynasty, which was composed of the Ming Dynasty's escaped slaves in Liaodong. This army of hundreds of thousands of cavalry not only beat the descendants of a generation of genius Genghis Khan into a wild dog of the prairie, but also beat the Qing Dynasty, which was founded by the Jurchens in Jianzhou, Liaodong, to make the Qing Dynasty. The most important thing is that the commander of this powerful army was still a twelve-year-old doll when he started his family, and he was only eighteen years old this year.

The Japanese shogunate was suspicious of this mythical legend. Until last year, after the Hokki was occupied by the Posou Army, Tadashi Aoyama sent more than ten teams of ships to the Hokkiki to investigate the enemy situation, but all of them were gone without returning. Tadashi Aoyama then brought twenty small boats and Guanbo to the Hokkiki, but was intercepted by a fleet of five gunships. The gunship was wearing the black wolf-headed battle flag and lined up to block the way of Tadashi Aoyama's fleet. Although the gunship fleet only had five warships, each warship was taller than Nobunaga's iron armored ship. Faced with such a strong enemy at sea, Tadashi Aoyama could only return in disappointment.

Tadari Sakai, an old senior from the Japanese shogunate, received an urgent report from Tadatsushi Aoyama, specifically asked someone to come to Japan for information about the Possess Army from the caravans that came to Japan for trading. As a result, true and false news was flying all over the sky. There were more than ten versions of the birthplace of Zhang Ping'an, the baby commander of the Possess Army. The most thriller was the Korean version of Zhang Ping'an. According to the Koreans, Zhang Ping'an was born in Heiandao, North Korea, and his parents gave him such a memorable name. The Japanese shogunate almost believed that this Korean version was not credible, and the shogunate believed that Zhang Ping'an was born in a Mongolian aristocratic family.

The basis for the news of the Japanese shogunate was that Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Pou Nu Army, accepted the official position of the Pou Nu Huo Shin-fue envoy of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming court generally granted such local officials to chieftains in the wild lands. It is rumored that the commander of the Pou Nu Army had the divine power of the Japanese God Hachiman, who could kill Nurhaci, the former Khan of the Qing Dynasty, alone among the enemy's thousands of troops, and obtained the title of the Pou Nu Marquis. Therefore, the general of the shogunate general Tokugawa Iemitsu even believed that Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Pou Nu Army, might be a Japanese. His argument was that Zhang Ping'an was cunning and insidious, and did not care about credibility in doing anything shameless to win the war.

Tokugawa Iemitsu believes that the series of insidious characteristics of the commander of the Slave Army, Zhang Ping'an, are almost consistent with the practices of the Japanese shoguns before ascending to the throne. For this reason, Tadari Sakai, the old man from the Japanese shogunate, wrote a letter to the Slave Army that captured Yanyuan after waiting for the camp, hoping to resolve the misunderstanding between the Japanese and the Slave Army in a peaceful way. Although the Japanese shogunate sent more than 10,000 landing troops this time, Tadari Sakai was still unwilling to take action easily before finding out the details of his opponent. This was mainly because, decades ago, the Japanese army under the command of the then shogunate general Toyotomi Hideyoshi, hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops attacked North Korea several times.

The result was that the cowardly soldiers in Korea were a group of farmers in front of the powerful Japanese army, which was simply unbearable to the battle. The army that the Japanese feared most in the Korean War was the Ming official army. Tens of thousands of Ming official army defeated hundreds of thousands of Japanese elite troops to almost destroy the entire army. This painful lesson scared the Japanese for decades. However, the Ming official army seemed to be on a downward path recently and was beaten by the Jurchens without the power to fight back. The grassland overlord Po Slave Army was able to defeat the Jurchens several times, which means that their combat power was much stronger than the Ming official army. Japan respected the strongest, so Tadari Sakai planned to be polite first and then fight.

After receiving the news that the Japanese army landed on Tsuma Island when Zhang Tong, who was stationed in Yanyuan City, had a feeling of rest. He looked down on the stinginess of the Japanese. Although his main army was not here, the Jiannu Tartars had to use 70,000 to fight for 70,000 to 80,000 to 70,000 to 80,000. It seemed that only 10,000 people were sent to some 10,000 people, which was really not enough to interfere. As for the military merits of the Japanese pirates, Zhang Tong valued the prisoners of Japan more. In his eyes, these Japanese soldiers almost became prisoners of the Pound Army. For this reason, Zhang Tong emphasized when issuing military orders that when fighting with Japan, he should treat prisoners well and try not to kill prisoners, otherwise he would not be able to work with the people of Pound City who paid for war bonds in the future.

Yan Yuancheng said it was a city, but in fact there was only one wooden castle built on a huge rock. The Japanese built castles with many differences from the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty built a city wall to protect the people, while the Japanese only protected Daming and their families. As for the Japanese people, they were all inferior consumables, whenever the war came, the people could only run into the deep mountains to hide. This time, the Slave-Breaking Army focused on annihilation of the enemy troops in the war, and Zhang Tong dispersed the main force, leaving only more than 2,000 combat soldiers beside him.

But Zhang Tong waited for a day and didn't wait for the landing to challenge him, which made Zhang Tong crazy. He didn't understand why the Japanese were so nagging? What made Zhang Tong even more crazy was still behind. The Japanese pirate army had already landed but did not fight but sent people to send letters to hold a meeting. Zhang Tong was puzzled when he saw this letter written in Chinese. Why was it so difficult to fight a war with Japan? What Zhang Tong most hoped was that the Japanese pirate army would come to the inland. The slave army only needed to send cavalry to cut off its retreat. Then Yang Qiantu Navy arrived to defeat the Japanese warships and captured the Japanese red seal ships. Isn't that the matter!

Zhang Tong didn't expect that there were so many tricks in Japan's war. In order to attract the enemy to Yanyuan City, Zhang Tong still planned to accept the request for a meeting between Japan. In the Po Nu Army, the commander Zhang Tong was a strange person. He usually communicated with his subordinates very smoothly, but when he arrived at a big occasion, he was a serious person. It was precisely because of his weakness that Zhang Zheng of the Po Nu Army, took into account his weaknesses and specially asked Po Nu City Xuanwei to experience Song Meixin, the most social person, to help Zhang Tong, and thus make up for his shortcomings in these aspects.

However, Song Meixin was at Kuye Island hundreds of miles away. Zhang Tong couldn't relieve his thirst even if he wanted to transfer him over. Originally, Zhao Sidao, the Thousand General Staff of the Conquering Yixing Camp, was able to do this, but Zhao Sidao was a little too upright and not good at turning in small places, and was not suitable for using fraudulent means to deceive Japanese pirates. Then, Zhang Tong suddenly remembered that he was appointed as the deputy general manager Ximen Qing. No, it was Chu Liuxiang. It was Chu Liuxiang who was the most shameless in the Conquering Yixing Camp. This person not only played with all the women of the famous masters when he came to Tsushima Island, but also drove all the men.

Such a cruel and shameless person, except for the General Zhang of the Pou Slave Army, is the one who must be the one who can win Chu Liuxiang to discuss secretly and give the bottom line of Chu Liuxiang's negotiation with the Japanese government. That is, he will try his best to trick the Japanese pirate army to the vicinity of Yanyuan City, and at least let the Japanese army stay away from the seaside, so that the Pou Slave Army can completely wipe out the Japanese army.
