Chapter 1347 Li Dingguo Landed

Li Dingguo carefully investigated the geography of the Chimachi-fai feudal family, and with the cooperation of the MIIS, he finally led his army to land.

He has ten thousand elite soldiers in his hand, which were brought out from Guihua City and has been through a long battle formation.

He did nothing, light and simple, landed in the shore from Zongsan County, headed south all the way to Fukuoka Castle, the vassal city of the former vassal state.

To his surprise, he had almost no resistance. Even if hundreds of warriors were ambushing like a decent ambush, they would collapse in one blow and could not resist at all.

In just three days, he had already arrived at Fukuoka City and surrounded him.

Fukuoka Castle is not big, but there are still artillery behind the city's high walls.

Li Dingguo had some information in his hands, but he was not so detailed. Looking at the city, he just shook his head secretly. Compared with the Ming Dynasty's great city, this place was simply a landmark city in the countryside.

When the deputy general around Li Dingguo saw that he shook his head, he was wrong and quickly explained: "Sir, this Zhuqianfu is a bit different. There is a Dazai Mansion here, which is a must-fight place for Kyushu Island. Therefore, the city walls here are tall and cannons appear."

Li Dingguo nodded indifferently and said, "Has Kuroda Tadao not responded yet?"

Although the Kazumashimatsu tribe seems rich, with a height of 520,000 stones, the disasters on the Kyuko Island in recent years have become more and more turbulent, especially the Shimahara Rebellion in the past few years, which has severely damaged the vitality of Kyuko Island, and is now extremely embarrassing.

And this building of the forefather is also a special place, and the story that happens is even more interesting.

"No." The deputy general also showed confusion and said, "No one is guarding the city at the top of the city."

Such a scene is very strange.

Li Dingguo turned to look at the others and said, "What do you think?"

A lieutenant said, "Sir, this Kuroda Tada is a famous tyrant. He is robbing and bloodthirsty, and has long lost the people's hearts. Although he has been undermined in recent years, the internal struggles of the Kazumashimai vassal states are not stopped and the force is slackened. Fukuoka Castle is afraid that there are not many troops."

Kuroda Tada was the second generation of the Kuroda family. After Kuroda Tada ascended the throne, he committed too many atrocities. His brothers coveted his vassal lord and his family governor and instigated his retainers to go to Edo to file a complaint.

This is the famous "Kuroda Commodation", which caused a huge shock in Edo. The final result was that this retainer was considered a psychopath by the shogunate, and each beat the board was 50. Kuroda Tada "remained in office", but his power was severely weakened.

For example, the last time the Kuroda family followed Hiromasa to conquer Shimahara Castle. Although it was led by Tada Kuroda, those samurai only followed the orders of his retainer Ichizuna Kuroda and ignored Tada Kuroda.

Similarly, in Fukuoka Castle now, there are almost not many samurai, most of them were taken away by Kuroda Ichina and followed Tadatsushi Aoyama.

Li Dingguo looked at Fukuoka Castle and raised his whip suddenly, saying coldly: "The book of archery tells Kuroda Tada to surrender within half an hour. If he does not surrender, he will be killed without mercy!"

"Yes!" The deputy general took the order and immediately arranged for someone to go.

In Fukuoka Castle, the main hall.

Kuroda Tada sat in the first position, facing north and south, with his head hanging down, as if he was asleep, squinting his eyes and not moving.

Below are his brothers, retainers such as family elders and military generals, looking at each other, and then looking at Tadao Kuroda.

Kuroda Takamasa and Kuroda Nagayo are the two younger brothers of Tadayuki Kuroda. Now they have no intention of fighting for power and profit. Their face is gloomy and they refuse to speak.

There are also some retainers below, including the so-called six of the twenty-four horsemen of Kuroda and some of the family elders.

Everyone knew it well that the old, weak and disabled soldiers in their city could not resist the Ming people at all, and there were only two ways in front of them.

Either live or surrender; or die or defend the city.

At this time, a samurai ran in and handed a roll of letter to Kuroda Takamasa and said, "Dian, the nature of Akira."

Kuroda Takamasa's eyes twitched, kicked them over, and said angrily, "The palace is on it."

Kuroda Takamasa had actually taken over the position of Kuroda Tada as the governor. This performance made the warrior stunned, but he quickly woke up and quickly crawled towards Kuroda Tada and said, "Dian, the letter of the Ming people."

“Hu~Hu~”

At this time, Kuroda Tada suddenly started to snore, and it was very clear and loud in the quiet hall.

Kuroda Takamasa naturally would not let Kuroda Tada die at this time, and said in a deep voice: "Don't pretend, you are the family governor, and you should shoulder the responsibility at this time!"

Kuroda Tada was shocked, looked up sleepily, and said, "Is it over? Then let's go."

As he said that, he got up and turned to the palace behind the eyes of the group of people as usual.

The two brothers and a group of retainers were stunned, and Tadao Kuroda really left, as usual!

He doesn't care about Fukuoka Castle's life or his own life or death?

Everyone was shocked, their eyes turned around and fell on Kuroda Takamasa.

Kuroda Takamasa was very angry, but he had to bite the bullet and said, "How many people are there in the city?"

The old man, Shigekashi Kuno, raised his head and said, "There are less than 600 people."

This Kuroda Takamasa naturally knew it and then asked, "Can there be reinforcements nearby?"

Shigekashi Kuno thought for a while and said, "From the back, the fat and thick troops were basically taken away by Izu Shou. I'm afraid that there are not as many of us left behind."

Kuroda Takamasa said indifferently, "You mean, there are almost no troops in Sikkaido, so the Ming people can drive straight in?"

Shigekashi Kuno knelt down and said, "The nine countries are weak in vitality, and Izu guards are strict in recruitment, and almost all the samurai took away. Unless Izu guards go north and fight against the Ming people, the five countries in Sikkaido will be unable to resist the Ming army at all."

The other families looked silent, and they could see this situation very clearly, so they felt very stressed.

Kuroda Takamasa's expression became more and more stern, saying, "Where is Izumakuo? Could the shogunate want to abandon me, Sikkaido?"

The group of people were silent, and the Ming people came in full force. They held nearly 100,000 soldiers in the Satsuma vassal, 60,000 soldiers, 30,000 navy, and nearly 200,000 troops in the Satsuma vassal, which shows the great pressure on the shogunate.

But what they faced was not these, but the Mei people had already besieged Fukuoka Castle. Are they dead and alive?

Kuroda Takamasa looked at the silent expressions of everyone and said coldly, "What do you think?"

A group of retainers was naturally silent, obviously hitting the stone with eggs, and no one wanted to be the one who stood out.

It was at this moment that a warrior rushed in again and said, "There is a man outside the city who asked for a visit."

Kuroda Takamasa had been impatient and said coldly: "Send it away!"

But the fierce Kuroda Takamasa reacted again and said, "Who is it? The lobbyist of the Ming people?"

The samurai knelt on the ground and said, "He said that his name is Ekima Okamoto, and now he is Kim Taku-seun."

The Tsukimaebashi is separated from North Korea by Tsukimashima Island, and he naturally knows the biggest traitor in the Toyotomi era.

Everyone looked very bad when they heard the name "Kim Chung-sun".
