Chapter 200: Eastern Expedition to Japan (IV)

In June, Japan has entered the plum rainy season. The sky always gives people a gray and wet feeling, just like the tears of crying women. They always fall so much for years, but they never end. However, this rain does not kill the heat, but adds water vapor to the sultry heat, just like taking a sauna. This climate is not suitable for living in the dry and cold Liaodong Army for many years, especially the Ming army widely used firearms, and this weather will never be used for the Ming army's combat.

But what is strange is that Kikuchi Fenga's army did not take the opportunity to attack. Instead, they showed signs of retreating. After Li Wei received news that Kikuchi Fenga gave up Kyushu and retreated to the south, he was confused. As an old opponent, he knew very well about this woman's decisiveness and ruthlessness. Although she also had three thousand muskets, this accounted for too little of her tens of thousands of troops. Her army still relied on cold weapons. More importantly, Zhu Yuanzhang left a hand when selling muskets. He did not give Japan enough gunpowder, so it was not difficult to make gunpowder. Japan might be able to find this formula from some classics, but to reach the level of shooting gunpowder, it requires a long-term accumulation of technology, how to make, how to purify, how to grind, and how to test the formula. This is by no means what you can do by looking at books. So Li Wei had already guessed that Kikuchi Fenga had not had much gunpowder left in his hand after the war with Yoshihiro Ouchi.

But this is how her army will not be affected by rainy days. She should take advantage of the Ming army's inability to adapt to the weather and launch a large-scale attack. Her army is several times more numerous than that of the Ming army, but why did she withdraw her troops at this time? Li Weizheng was puzzled.

"Report! There is an emergency military situation."

A personal guard's report interrupted Li Weizheng's thoughts. He seemed to realize something and immediately sat back on his seat and said, "Let him come in!"

After a moment, a sergeant strode in and saluted half-kneeling and said, "Report to the general, we have scouts found that in a place called Ishimiguo, Honshu, Japan, the main force of the Japanese army was found. The number of troops was about 100,000, and it was heading towards Kyushu. The road was difficult after the rain, and they were unhappy in march."

Li Wei was immediately walking to the table and checked carefully on a map of Japan spread out. Ishimikoku was located at the westmost west of Honshu Island. After Ishimikoku, it was Nagato and then Kyushu Island. It was more than 300 miles away from the Kyushu Strait. It was normal to arrive in three or four days. But now it is the rainy season, and it will take at least four or five days to reach the Kyushu Strait. In addition, ferries have to be collected, which will take six or seven days at the fastest.

"Ashikaga Yoshiman", Li Wei murmured to himself. It should be him. Ashikaga Yoshiman led a 100,000 army to retake Kyushu. It should be said that this is a matter of gaining fame and fortune. No matter who is the authenticity of the royal family, as long as Kyushu can be recaptured, then who is the savior of Japan is a political need. As a non-blood orthodox Northern Dynasties, the Northern Dynasties will never give up this opportunity, and the Southern Dynasties will not sit idly by and lose righteousness. Prince Liangseki will definitely send troops. Li Wei knew that the Southern Dynasties moved to Shikoku Island for development last year, and their strength had been restored.

Li Wei closed his eyes and pondered for a moment. With his understanding of Kikuchi Fengya, he vaguely guessed that Kikuchi Fengya was probably taking a dangerous move.

The rain began to heavier again, and a team of horse riders walked hard on the muddy road outside Fukuoka City. There were about fifty or sixty people in this group. It can be seen that they were all dressed up by the army. Among them, there was a woman in a white dress and a gauze hat. Her eyes were calm. She looked at Fukuoka Castle in the distance, and her eyes were filled with a bold and cruel look.

Soon, the group walked outside Fukuoka Castle. The Ming army guarding the city stepped forward to stop it. The woman said fluently in Chinese: "Please tell you General Li, just say that the old friend is visiting."

The soldier went in to report, and for a moment, Li Wei was coming out to greet him in person. He laughed from afar: "Miss Fengya, don't be fine!"

The woman took the veil and revealed a pretty face. It was Kikuchi Fengya. She was wearing a high bun, and her face was particularly delicate. Her eyebrows were as dark as a distant dawn, her eyes were as autumn as a wave, and her white clothes were as snow as a fairy, which made all the Ming soldiers beside her scream, but Li Weizheng knew that there was a devil's heart hidden under this fairy-like appearance. At this time, he had fully understood Kikuchi Fengya's strategy. As he guessed, Kikuchi Fengya wanted to get rid of the fire. However, Li Weizheng really admired this woman. She could get to this day step by step and become a prince, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

Li Wei was approaching and smiled slightly and said, "Miss Fengya, I have been waiting for you for a long time."

A trace of shock suddenly flashed in Kikuchi Fengya's eyes, but the shock disappeared in just one flash. She smiled slightly and said gently: "The old friend came from afar. Fengya was welcomed by sweeping the bed and cooking tea, but Li Qianhu refused to appreciate the scenery, which made Fengya have to come to the door in person."

"Why, I have prepared the best wine. Will Miss Kikuchi have a drink with me?"

Kikuchi Fengya shook her head, her smile still charming, "I haven't drunk for a year, but for Li Qianhu, I'm willing to break this precept."

"Okay, Miss, please sit in the room!" Li Wei was posing for invitation, "Miss Fengya!"

"You are waiting outside, no one can come with me. It is a private matter for me to visit Li Qianhu."

Kikuchi Fengya gave his men a few words, and then followed Li Weizheng into the house. Li Weizheng asked Kikuchi Fengya to sit down, and then gave her a cup of tea and smiled: "Since you have quit drinking, you don't have to quit anymore. Outside this room, you and I are enemies, but in the room we are friends. I am happy that you have successfully quit drinking, come! Let's have a cup of tea."

Kikuchi Fengya picked up the teacup and took a sip. Her eyes rolled and she smiled softly, "Wei Zhengjun, I have toasted you twice, but you have made excuses to turn it off. How can I toast you with this cup of tea again? Are you willing to drink it?"

She handed the teacup over and stared at Li Weizheng, but Li Weizheng took it and said with a smile: "It's only a matter of three. If Miss Fengya doesn't drink the third cup, it will really let the beauty down."

Li Weizheng drank the tea in one sip. He laughed and said, "The fragrance is still there, but Li Weizheng finally got a kiss."

At this moment, Kikuchi Fengya also understood that Li Weizheng had seen through his strategy, so he dared to drink his own tea. Yes, it was her honor to be with such men.

Her eyes were flowing, and she suddenly sighed and said, "Wei Zhengjun, whether in Beijing, Guangdong, or Nara, I want to ask you for a night's relationship, but you never give me this opportunity. If I beg you again now, will you give it to me?"

After saying that, she stood up, gently took off her dress, revealing her white skin all over. She pulled off her hairpin, and her long hair like a black waterfall spread on her shoulders. She walked to Li Wei and knelt down, her eyes were blurred, and she said with a hint of resentment: "Wei Zhengjun, I have always been very conflicted with you. Sometimes I want to kill you, eat your flesh, and peel your skin, but sometimes I want to give you a baby. Do you understand my heart? This time I came here to negotiate with you, but I also know that this may be my last chance. Give it to me! I want to conceive your child, and in the future, I will make him the emperor of Japan."

Li Wei was gently stroked her smooth breasts, but smiled faintly and said, "Feng Ya, you are always calculating, and even want to use the position of Emperor to lure me. In fact, you don't need it. As long as I defeat Ashikaga Yoshima and break the balance of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, with your means and ability, you will definitely seize the opportunity to defeat Prince Ryoseki and replace him. I know very well in my heart that I will not care who will be the Japanese emperor in the future, but no matter what, I will fight Ashikaga Yoshima to realize my Japanese strategy. You really don't need to sacrifice your body in exchange for this opportunity."

Kikuchi Fengya was shocked, and she immediately lowered her long eyelashes and said with a little sadness: "Weizhengjun, I am twenty-eight years old this year. As a normal woman, I also long to have my own children and inherit my career in the future. But so far, I have never met any man who can make me willing to give birth to a child for him. I have countless men, but I will drink a glass of medicinal wine in advance for everyone, but today I don't. In fact, the reason is very simple. I can make me taste the unforgettable pain of failure in this life, you are the only one. In the battle of Huangpu Island, you pushed me out of hell. That night, I knelt on the deck and swear that one day I, Kikuchi Fengya, will stand up again. Today I succeed, but this is your gift. You killed the Thousand-faced Moon Goddess, but Kikuchi Fengya was reborn. I hate you to the core, but I just want to conceive your child."

"Kneel on the small table and look at me with your back!" Li Weizheng whispered.

"yes!"

Kikuchi Fengya obediently executed his orders. At this moment, the female devil was gone, just an ordinary woman.

Four days later, Kikuchi Fengya personally led a large army to suddenly intercept Prince Liangcheng who crossed the sea on the Songshan Peninsula of Zhou Fangguo. The Southern Dynasties army was unable to defend, and suffered heavy casualties. More than 40,000 people surrendered to Fengya Kikuchi. Prince Liangcheng was surrounded on a small island. Finally, he committed suicide in anger and despair. Fengya Kikuchi immediately led the army to cross the sea and enter Shikoku Island. Three days later, she was under the Southern Dynasties Imperial City. She accepted the title of Emperor Guishan on a war horse and became the Minister of the Southern Dynasties' Taizheng and the General of the Conquest of the Yi.
