Chapter 1080: Heavy Crack

Katsushi Ikeda turned his head and saw that the dead soldiers behind him were being massacred. The so-called master dead soldiers in his eyes were truly vulnerable to Yi Tusheng's hands. Basically, they were knocked to the ground and died of death if they could not even meet three times. Everyone who took the action was basically above him.

Katsu Ikeda used a false move, rolled on the ground, and sent out a series of diamond ninja darts in his hand, and rushed forward. But Yi Tusheng was faster than him, and his body shook behind him. He grabbed his shoulder with his hand, pulled him back, and then pulled Katsu Ikeda's body to the ground. Then he went up and pointed his acupoint.

However, Yi Tusheng and his men still did not wipe out the dead soldiers, so they still let one or two run back to the city. It is not a big deal to run away. The problem is that after these or two people returned, they reported to Kita Kita Katsura to Katsura's capture of Katsura alive, so Kita Kita took the Ikeda family's gold, silver and treasure wife and daughter to leave the Hikema Castle overnight. By dawn the next day, the Hikema Castle was actually an empty city.

Yi Tusheng was originally planning to take Katsushi Ikeda to threaten the defenders in the city to surrender, but he didn't expect that when the army came to the city the next day, he found that the entire city had been empty, and there was not even a soldier guarding the gate on the top of the city. The gate was open to the outside, and the people inside were tired of running.

Yi Tusheng was puzzled and didn't think too much about entering the city, while ordering Shang Kexi to lead troops to Osumi City to see the situation. Unexpectedly, Shang Kexi came back and reported that Osumi City had also become an empty city, and his army had occupied the city without any effort and was celebrating the achievements.

This situation is a bit pointless for Yi Tusheng. The established combat plan has failed, but it may not be a good thing. The rest are the two cities of Tanaka and Hinaga and Toyogo from the Kida family, which Geng Zhongming led his troops to attack. It is estimated that it will take some time before the news will be heard.

After occupying the two cities of Himemaki and Osumi, the soldiers did not die too much, and the soldiers were still in a stable mood. Considering that Yi Tusheng, who had to put the overall situation first, did not order the massacre to launch a massacre, he just ordered the generals below to organize a temporary government in the city, and also killed those unruly people with resistance consciousness, searched for young women and finished the Ming Dynasty soldiers, and searched all the wealthy families in the city to wipe out the family. Although it was very unethical, it was much more generous than the small massacres in Hakata Castle.

At this time, news came from Tsushima Island and the generation of Ryukyu. Gao Yigong and Kong Shen's owl had fully controlled and occupied the above-mentioned areas and asked Yi Tusheng what to do next. Yi Tusheng immediately instructed them to push Ryukyu and Tsushima's royal family members to Japan first, and then send troops to garrison on the two islands. Kong Shen and the owl continued to stay, while Gao Yigong had to return to the front of the army to serve. This decision was made because Yi Tusheng did not trust Gao Yigong very much. After all, he had betrayed his master. If he proclaimed himself king on the island, it would be a bad thing.

At noon the next day, Yi Tusheng, who had waited for Geng Zhongming's news in the city, unexpectedly waited for Liu Zongmin's news. It turned out that Liu Zongmin was ordered to lead the sail gunboat to patrol the eastern waters of ***, and the fleet of Beiji Machang's fleet had a total of twenty sailboats, and Liu Zongmin's command had almost 20 gunboats. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty gunboats used sidewalk gunboats, which were much more powerful than Beiji Machang's gunboats. Within two hours after the fire, more than ten Japanese gunboats were sunk. The remaining seven or eight gunboats all raised their sails and fled. Liu Zongmin was pursuing at this moment.

In addition, some of the navy boarded the destroyed Japanese gunboats and collected countless gold and silver and beauties on it, which were almost all the gold, silver and jewelry accumulated by the Ikeda family and the Kitaki family over the past century. Yi Tusheng ordered that these gold and silver be rewarded to the soldiers as a general, half of which were confiscated, and all the beauties were rewarded to the generals below. However, the only regrettable thing is that there was no flagship of Kitaki Matsuo among these sunken gunboats. It seems that this old boy is still at large.

"Report to the prince, General Geng Zhongming's battle report has arrived. Please check it out." A soldier ran in from outside and handed Geng Zhongming's battle report to Yi Tusheng. Yi Tusheng quickly opened the battle report. When he saw the content, he suddenly lost his luster. It turned out that Geng Zhongming was in some trouble.

The thing is like this. Geng Zhongming made a very smooth start. After several close contacts with the Tanaka family, he found that the combat effectiveness of the Tanaka family was ordinary, so he decisively sent troops to attack the city. In order to show the power of the Central Plains warriors, he did not choose to attack the city with cannonballs. In general, there are still figures such as cannonballs. Even if they are not counted, they are made with money. After an hour, it will be countless real money and silver. Geng Zhongming felt that he could save as much as possible.

Geng Zhongming had a good expectation. The combat effectiveness of the Tanaka family was really not very good. The Ming army barely tried hard to arch the city. In this way, Geng Zhongming became jealous of underestimating the enemy. After entering the city, Geng Zhongming, who was eager to make contributions, found that there was no shadow of Tianaka's piercing in the city. He couldn't help but feel an atmosphere in his heart. It was obvious that the head of the Tanaka family ran away and took away some soldiers, which made it difficult for him to explain to Yi Tusheng.

After killing thousands of people to vent their anger, Geng Zhongming and the next morning ordered the entire army to pursue Fenghoucheng in the direction of Fenghoucheng. Even if they could not use the Tianaka puncture halfway, they must keep him in Fenghoucheng. Otherwise, even if his mission was successful, there would be nothing to show off.

But what Geng Zhongming did not expect was that the Ming army was ambushed by the Tanaka family and the Kida family halfway. The army suffered heavy losses, losing five or six thousand people. For the time being, they could only retreat to Hinaga City. Although the Ming army could bear the loss of five or six thousand people, the Ming army was too embarrassed. The two small daimyos, with only 20,000 or 30,000 troops, actually caused such a heavy blow to the Ming army. Not only Geng Zhongming's atmosphere, Yi Tusheng also felt that his face was lost. So Yi Tusheng decided to go to Hinaga City in person and accept Geng Zhongming's command.

When Yi Tusheng's army entered Hinata Castle, Geng Zhongming and his men knelt on the stone road in the city and did not dare to get up, shouting that he was guilty. Yi Tusheng felt that victory and defeat were common in military affairs, and did not say much, but just scolded Geng Zhongming a few words, blaming him for his greed for making great progress and making meritorious contributions.

After coming to the house, Geng Zhongming hurriedly introduced the failure of Yi Tusheng and his colleagues to Yi Zhongming. Geng Zhongming said: "It's mainly because we don't understand the terrain. Tanaka Punch and Kima Sa, the head of the Kida family, took advantage of our weakness to set a trap for me. Tanaka Punch is also a very wise person. From the beginning, he was very weak and retreated step by step, which made me gradually lose vigilance. Later, he simply gave up his own city and wanted to lure me into a valley on the southern foot of the Asama Mountain to burn to death. I was already in an ambush circle. None of the 40,000 vanguard troops I led were spared, but fortunately I had a rifle..."
