Chapter 1356 Close the fortress
Li Dingguo's actions naturally meant to let Tadatsutsu Aoyama know his purpose.
Sure enough, it didn't take long before Tadatsushi Aoyama received the news.
The old man with a calm face said, "Dian, are the Ming people going to attack their own island?"
The essence of Japan is on its own island. No matter how turbulent the Kyuko Island is, the shogunate will be calm, but once the Ming army enters its own island, I am afraid that no one from top to bottom can calm down. Those who still push three obstacles and disobey the four evil spirits will deeply feel the crisis.
This will be a real danger for Japan, and a real earthquake is coming.
Tadatsutsu Aoyama looked at the map at the table, his eyes fell on Guanmen Strait, and then went to the right, which was the home island.
The island of this country is full of mountains and plains. There was a powerful cavalry in the Ming Dynasty that could gallop more than 200 miles a day. If you cross the Guanmen Strait, you may drive straight into Luoyang (Edo)!
But Tadatsushi Aoyama's eyes quickly moved back and said in a cold tone: "I was on Jiuguo Island for one day, so the Ming people could not enter their own island without any scruples. Their purpose is to control the Guanmen Strait and cut off our support, and the second is to lure me out."
The old man listened and said, "Dian, that's not bad. The wise people have always been deceitful. If they really enter their own island, the public will be furious!"
Tadatsuto Aoyama's face was as iron as he could not see his expression, and said lightly: "Don't worry, look again. Where is the Ming Dynasty's navy now?"
The family really couldn't understand it. It was now at this time. Tadao Toshi Aoyama was still 'not in a hurry' and said silently: "Most of them were stationed in Tsuma Fan, and some were scattered everywhere, including some in the Mansion Bay and Guanmen Strait. Now they want to attack Guanmen Strait, and they may concentrate nearby."
Tadao Toshi Aoyama stared at Guanmen Strait, nodded secretly, and said, "Guomengmen Strait is more than 30,000, each of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait has 60,000. There is still more to support at any time, so don't worry."
My old family is not only worried about closing the strait, but also about them now.
In the entire Jiuguo Island, only the Feihou Vanguard is still in their hands, but they have an army of 70,000. The Feihou Vanguard cannot afford it at all. It will not take long to keep the food and grass. If there is no supplement, they may collapse without fighting.
Aoyama Tadatsutsu naturally understood this, and the old man didn't say much, saying: "According to the news from all over the country, Dorgon sent 20,000 people to sweep the eight countries except the fat and graceful vassals. Anyone who did not resist was killed or even slaughtered the city... They robbed countless gold, silver, money and grain. Hei Tian Zhongzhi even forced himself to recruit. It is said that he had 20,000 people in his hand, and was trained with the help of the Ming Dynasty..."
Tadatsutsuki Aoyama knew about it earlier, and said with a blank expression, "Let them kill me, are there any abnormal movements in Kagoshima?"
The old man was puzzled and replied: "No, we blocked the shore, but there was no way in the sea. They often went out to sea, and there were also Ming navys appearing."
Kagoshima is a peninsula, derived from the Neihu Lake, which connects the sea, and the Ming Navy comes and goes freely. If Japan does not have a powerful navy, it will be helpless in such a place.
Tadao Toshi Aoyama put away the map and said, "Let them see it, block it. Let the main halls come to see me."
Tadatsushi Aoyama is different from Shigemasaki Itami or Nobutsu Matsuhira. He was a person from the Tokugawa Ieyasu era and was loyal to the Tokugawa family. He was a person who respected the Tokugawa family and Tokugawa Iemi.
These big names, whether they are external, genealogical, or relatives, have never dared to neglect Tadashi Aoyama.
"Yes." The old master of the family.
Tadatsushi Aoyama remained silent and allowed Kyuko Island to fall. The names, especially those from Kyuko Island, were naturally very angry. Various voices had appeared in the army, and there were signs of instability. Tadatsushi Aoyama needed to appease and control them.
On the other hand, Dorgon was stationed in the inner city of the mansion, Daishan, Mandahai, Duoduo, Hei Tianzhong and others led their army to gallop across the five northern countries, eliminating all disasters, and at the same time collecting food, grass, money and food.
In addition to the fat and graceful vassals, Jiuguo Island is basically under the control of Dorgon. With their personality of "killing if you don't accept it", they have confiscated countless famous names, family warehouses and arsenals.
In just half a month, the inner city of the mansion was full of money and grain, and there were hundreds of family governors who knelt down to them!
Hei Tianzhong was full of energy and complacent, because these governors were all under his command, and his army expanded to 20,000!
On Kyuko Island, the only danger is Aoyama Tadatsutsu, who is shackled in the fat and graceful vassal. In addition to the intense training of troops these days, Hei Tian Tadatsutsu was also exploring Aoyama Tadatsutsu's position while asking for his orders, hoping to cut Aoyama Tadatsutsu off as soon as possible to completely control Kyuko Island in order to seek peace of mind.
Dorgon's cavalry kept provoking her, trying to force Qingshan Zhongjun out, but Qingshan Zhongjun was like an old turtle, but she just didn't come forward, which made Dorgon and others helpless and admired his determination.
At the same time, Li Dingguo led 5,000 men and 1,000 cannons not far from Guanmen Strait.
The army was still taking a simple rest and maintaining cannons and ammunition. Li Dingguo and his men came to Guanmen Strait not far from him and observed secretly.
The deputy general was beside him, rubbing his shoulders, looking at Li Dingguo's arm tied with bandages and hanging, and said, "Sir, our injury is not good, Dorgon also said, it doesn't matter if the speed is slower, why are you so anxious?"
Li Dingguo held a telescope and looked through the woods in the direction of Guanmen Strait, saying, "Let them raise the big basket at the right angle."
The deputy general responded, and then looked, and after a while, he frowned.
The Guanmen Strait was not what he expected. It was not like a strait or a ferry, but more like a fortress, with turrets, tall buildings, various fortifications, and strict warriors patrolling each other, so tightly beyond imagination.
More importantly, he saw many cement buildings, artillery towers, walls, watchtowers, etc., all of which were like this.
Suddenly he hated and said, "Sir, Luo Yang's death is not worthy of sacrificing his ten thousand times!"
Li Dingguo was still observing carefully, shook his head with a normal expression and said, "I have been working hard to build water conservancy a few years ago. It is not a secret that cement is not a secret. There are so many Japanese people coming and going, so it is not necessarily because Luo Yangxing deliberately leaked it."
Despite this, the deputy general was still very angry and said, "Sir, the Japanese obviously have prepared for it. We are afraid that it will be difficult for us to attack... No wonder the Grand Governor has not taken action."
Li Dingguo put down his telescope, turned around and went to the big basket, saying, "We don't need to guess the strategy of the Grand Commander, we will implement the tactical part first."
The deputy general followed the basket and looked at the inside of the fortress, and his expression became even more shocked.
The layout of this fortress does not look like the style of Japan, but rather like the Ming Dynasty, or just copying it. This fortress is simply a copy of Shanhaiguan, built on the continuous mountains, with high city and thick walls, easy to defend but difficult to attack!
