Chapter 1514 ??? The battlefield is like a shopping mall?
Zhu Cihuan brought up the United States of Xinzhou as a shield, and Shimazu Noyoshi and a bunch of "Gyeongju Red Deers" had nothing to say.
That is a country of 1 million gun-toting mobs!
Even if you don’t count the gun-toting mobs, the United States of New Zealand still has a quite powerful navy. If the main force of the Eastern Fleet of the Great Ming Dynasty returns to its hometown, the Pacific coast of North New Zealand will be the number one navy of the United States!
After taking over the three states of Suo, Xi, and Na, and handing over Angel Castle (according to the agreement between Zhu Cihuan and Zhu Hehao), the coastline of the Jiaqing Kingdom will become very long, at least eight or nine thousand miles (because there is a
The very slender Gyeongju Peninsula). If you don’t have sea control, how can you defend such a long coastline? How many samurai families are there in the entire Gagyeong Kingdom? One samurai family can defend a coastline of one or two miles? What kind of combat effectiveness can it have if it is spread like that?
Moreover, the Jiaqing Kingdom's financial resources are limited, and it is impossible to establish a maritime armed force that can compete with the United States Navy.
Therefore, this group of warriors from the Kingdom of Jiaqing can ignore New Spain, but they dare not ignore the thoughts of the United King.
An overly powerful Jiaqing Kingdom is unlikely to be something that the King of United States would like to see!
So everyone can only accept it as soon as possible, and then quietly accumulate strength...
Just when Zhu Cihuan used the banner of the local tyrant king to reluctantly hold back the group of Gyeongju warriors who were obviously exhausted but still wanted to run away. The sound of horse hoofbeats came from far and near, and then
It's an elongated Chinese "bao——".
This is the return of the patrol sentry sent by Zhu Cihuan!
After receiving the baggage supplies from Guaymas Port, the Gyeongju Army's cavalry resumed some activities and could enter the south of Guasavi Castle for search and exploration.
Now shouting "Report——" and flying into the roof without knowing where to go, he was a samurai named Takeda Huanzhi (formerly known as Nobuyuki, who adopted the nickname of Zhu Cihuan). He was the warrior who had once been surprised.
Koshinobu's scraps from the Takeda family (there is a family tree that can be checked) had no future in Japan, so he was deceived by Masaki Hoshina into Kakyu Province and became a member of the Takeda Cavalry.
When he first came here, he wanted to show off his talents in the New World and recreate the scenery of his ancestors. But he didn't expect that he became a horse rancher in Jiaqing Country and raised horses for ten years. During this period, he was only occasionally sent by Hoshiki Masaki to work as a rancher.
Horse thieves invaded the Sonoran Desert to rob people... They made some money, and they were rewarded for their merits in robbing people. They received the word "Huan" from Zhu Cihuan and became a member of the cavalry.
Squad leader.
But this is not the samurai life he wants! Are the descendants of the dignified Takeda family about to become horse thieves and bandits in the New World? But what can we do otherwise? The Kaqing Kingdom is a place struggling to survive.
Home!
Whether it is the United States in the north or the Kingdom of New Spain in the south, if they really get angry, they can destroy the Kingdom of Jiaqing.
Just when he was almost resigned to his fate and gave up on his dream of being a warrior, things suddenly changed and the war came!
Takeda Huanzhi, who is already in his 30s this year, immediately roped in his son, a believer who had just served in the Yuan Dynasty, and joined King Kaqing's expeditionary force together.
For more than a month, Takeda and his son have been the vanguard of the Kaqing Kingdom's army. Until several of the horses they carried died of exhaustion, and they had to change from cavalry to idle "walking cavalry".
Fortunately, the Port of Guaymas finally sent new war horses, all of which are good horses produced in the pastures of the United States!
After having war horses, the warriors of the Takeda Cavalry can finally transform back into mounted cavalry and go to the front line to make contributions.
On the night when he mounted his war horse and went out with his comrades, he made a major discovery!
"Report to the king, last night, the ministers and others discovered the Spanish night camp sixty or seventy miles south of Guasavi Castle! The night camp was very large, and countless bonfires were lit... The number of enemies is probably huge.
Tens of thousands of people!”
"What? Tens of thousands of people?"
"It came so quickly!"
"You've come just in time! Your Majesty, our army has won consecutive battles, its morale is high, and it has received supplies and artillery. It is fully capable of fighting the Western Yi to the death!"
"Yes, now is the God-given opportunity to defeat the Western Yi..."
"Your Majesty, please give the order!"
Zhu Cihuan was really speechless when he saw these men who were overly brave and highly motivated to kill people.
Killing someone is risky, and you need to be cautious when going into battle. Why don't you know?
He turned around and looked at Shimazu Noyoshi, who said: "Your Majesty, we are outnumbered and the enemy is outnumbered. We may not be sure of our majestic formation. We should use surprise and night attacks to defeat the enemy!"
Shimazu Nobu said loudly: "Your Majesty, I invite you to fight, and I am willing to lead 3,000 elite troops to attack the enemy camp!"
Hoshina Masaki also said: "Your Majesty, it rains a lot these days. Maybe we can use the rainy night as a cover to surprise the enemy camp!"
Zhu Cihuan was really speechless. Another three thousand against thirty thousand, another surprise attack on a rainy night. Are we going to rush directly into the New Spanish army and chop off the head of Don Juan José? Do you think that he is Don Juan?
.Is Jose Imagawa Yoshimoto?
"Nonsense!" Zhu Cihuan's face darkened again. He glanced around the hot-headed warriors in the room who were eager to die, and his tone became serious, "Now we have to retreat...at least retreat to
Go to the Fortress of Navoa.”
"Back off?"
"Are we going to retreat without a fight?"
"Your Majesty, you can't do it. If we retreat without fighting, everyone in the world will look down on us Gyeongju warriors..."
"Idiot!" Zhu Cihuan shouted, "It's no longer time for us to fight our last... Now someone has invested money in us, and it's a lot of money. Our previous 2,000-mile advance has already
It whetted the appetite of those people. So there will be more and more large sailing ships bringing baggage, weapons, and even reinforcements to the port of Guaymas!
Since they have invested so much capital, they will not just watch us fail. If we fail, they will lose everything... So let's back off and scare them. Then they will definitely give us some help.
If we invest more capital, we might be able to persuade the King of the United States to send troops."
Not to mention, Zhu Cihuan's analysis is quite reasonable...at least he has a pretty accurate grasp of investors' mentality.
They didn't have much confidence in Zhu Cihuan and Jiaqing Kingdom before, so they were careful when spending money. Later, they saw that Jiaqing Kingdom's army was overwhelming, so they rushed to spend money... This was a big investment.
!If they see that the market in Jiaqingguo is not good and starts to go down, will those people be willing to take their losses and leave the market so quickly?
That is impossible. Investors are generally unwilling to give up until they reach the Yellow River, so they will definitely continue to invest more and put pressure on Zhu Hehao to send troops to rescue. If the United States sends troops, this battle will be
Are you still afraid of not winning?
Zhu Cihuan continued to say to his subordinates: "After we retreat to the Wonahua Fortress, we are only more than three hundred miles away from the Port of Guaymas... Guarding this port, we are not afraid of not getting backup. And Tang
. Juan Jose has no sea route, and supplies and support are transported by land. It will definitely not last long. If we don't fight him by then, we will drag him down with deep ditches and high fortresses. When he can't sustain it anymore, we will either risk an attack or
Just retreat in despair! No matter what he does, we can win a great victory!"
What he means is that now that the investors of the United States have been trapped... they can burn their money to burn off Don Juan Jose, although Don Juan Jose is also quite rich.
, but he had to transport supplies by land, and the cost was too high to keep burning.
Why work so hard when you can burn money to win?
There is a lot of money in the United States...the specialty there is money! The specialty products are gold and mink! What are you afraid of if you burn a little?
What he said made sense! It opened the eyes of a group of warriors who knew how to fight and kill, and they all nodded along!
Chapter completed!
