The territory of Japan is comparable to that of a medium-sized province in China, but the population is very dense. With this convenient condition, Mikasa Castle was able to form a complete naval fleet - the Japan Fleet.

The Japanese fleet naval admiral was the pirate Daming of Kyuki Katsura, and the general was a well-known pirate including Bukit Murakami. The two had an intersection during the Warring States Period. To be precise, Bukit Murakami was a defeated man under Kyuki Katsura.

Katakara was the retainer of Oda Nobunaga in the Antu Momoyama Period in the Warring States Period of Japan, and the eighth generation master of the Nagato family naval army. In 1574, Katakarara was shot and protected by the Oda army at the sea while suppressing Ise Nagashima, and made great contributions.

Later, in the Second Battle of Kitsuguchi, Katsurachi Kyuhito built an iron-armored ship and smashed the naval army of Bukit Murakami, the subordinate of the Maori clan. Because of this merit, he was granted a 35,000-stone territory and was called the name of the Pirate.

In addition to the Japanese Navy, Mikasa Castle also has a group of troops. The main generals in the army include the three heroes of the Japanese Warring States Period, namely Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu.

Oda Nobunaga was the commander, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Tokugawa Ieyasu and several other Warring States generals served as the commanders of the army. (Note: For the sake of easy understanding, the military organization of all territories in the game world is based on the Daxia as a reference.)

The three of them are in the same period and have deep intersections with each other.

Of course, the most legendary one is Oda Nobunaga.

Military, Oda Nobunaga used musket tactics in large quantities; in governance, it implemented innovative policies such as separation of soldiers and peasants, encouraging free trade, and rectifying transportation routes, opening up the road to modern Japan.

In the end, Oda Nobunaga overthrew the Muromachi shogunate, which had nominally governed Japan for more than two hundred years, and ended the Warring States period that had lasted for more than a hundred years since the Eyeren Rebellion.

This also made the Oda family the most powerful daimyo in the middle and late Warring States Period.

But on the eve of the upcoming unification of Japan, Oda Nobunaga was committed suicide by his confidant Akichi Mitsuhide in Honnoji Temple in Kyoto and committed suicide by separatism, ending his glorious life.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi was born into a peasant family and was originally a slight (i.e., a lower-level infantry). Later, he rose to serve Nobunaga Oda and gradually became rich in talent. After Nobunaga Oda's death, Hideyoshi Toyotomi won the internal struggle and became the essential successor of Nobunaga Oda's Nobunaga.

Tokugawa Ieyasu was sent to the Oda family as a hostage when he was a teenager and established a friendship with the young Oda Nobunaga, which later became a great help for the two to form the Kiyosu Alliance.

After Toyotomi Hideyoshi's death, Tokugawa Ieyasu led the Eastern Army to defeat the Western Army in the Battle of Sekigahara, and determined the hegemony. Since then, they have gradually destroyed the Toyotomi family forces and established the Tokugawa Shogunate.

Japan in the game is in the Warring States Period, and the historical talents of Mikasa Castle were also dominated by this period. Because it was the only one in the world, Mikasa Castle almost included the top historical talents in Japan.

The only special thing is that the one who entered the royal city of Edo was not any daimyo from the Warring States Period, but the Meiji Emperor who was also legendary in Japan's history.

Such a combination is indeed a bit troublesome.

…………

According to the enemy situation previously detected by the Daxia Pacific Fleet, the first formation of the Japanese fleet was stationed in the waters near Kyushu Island, the second formation was stationed on Shikoku Island, and the third and fourth formations were stationed on Honshu Island.

There should be only the fifth formation of the Japanese fleet near Hokkaido.

Since the beginning of the year, Japan has been actively preparing for the National War Month. Since then, the Japan fleet has strengthened its blockade of nearby waters, making it difficult for outsiders to detect detailed information.

Even the Black Snake Guard can only find basic information such as the geographical population of Japan, and know very little about advanced information such as military deployment in Mikasa Castle. It can be seen that Mikasa Castle has done a very good job in confidentiality.

This time, the Japanese fleet played a trick.

This time, the Pacific Fleet Navy Admiral Shi Lang arranged five formations into a swallow-shaped arrangement, and the first formation where the flagship Liuguang was located was centered, and the second, third, fourth and fifth formations were arranged in front, back and left and right.

This not only broadens the fleet's cruise vision, but also supports each other.

If five formations gather together, it would be like a group of blind men sailing in the vast ocean, which would be very dangerous and stupid.

Shi Lang had originally set up the formation correctly, but this time he encountered a challenge.

When Zhou Tai, the general of the Navy, led the second formation of the Pacific Fleet to plunge into Hokkaido, he immediately entered the encirclement of the Japanese Fleet. Five formations of the Japanese Fleet actually appeared in this sea area at the same time.

"This is impossible!"

Zhou Tai was stunned.

Just yesterday, when the Pacific Fleet passed through the Goryeo Strait and entered the Japanese waters, the Red Horse Boat sent by the fleet also found the first and third formations of the Japanese Fleet, without any abnormalities.

Why did five formations of the Japanese fleet appear in Hokkaido at the same time in the blink of an eye?!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Naturally, the Japanese fleet would not explain to Zhou Tai. Under the command of Jiugui Jialong, they immediately launched intensive shelling on Zhou Tai's troops, attempting to annihilate the formation in one fell swoop.

Thanks to the previous "generosity" and "privateness" of Liberty City, Mikasa Castle started the process of firearm transformation at the beginning of the formation of the Japanese fleet. Mikasa Castle is not inferior to Daxia in terms of artillery or muskets.

Since the firearm manufacturing technology comes from Free City, it is even better than Daxia.

In the vast sea, the Japanese fleet formed a huge encirclement, with more than 200 main warships arranged in fan shape, and frantically tilting the artillery fire at Zhou Tai's troops trapped in the center.

Giant shells were like meteorites from the sky, facing Zhou Tai's head, either piercing the deck, breaking the mast, shattering the hull, or falling into the air, splashing huge waves on the sea surface.

The unlucky deep-sea beast just surfaced and was about to breathe fresh air when it was hit by a shell. A huge pit was blown out of its thick back, and blood and flesh were flying everywhere, and it seemed that it was not alive.

This is called a disaster for fish!

Seeing this, the nearby deep-sea giant beasts rushed to the outer waters, avoiding them.

Zhou Taimen was so dizzy that he was blown up and suffered heavy losses in an instant.

"Quickly, ask for help from the flagship!"

With Zhou Tai's order, a signal flare immediately took off. Then, a mimicry aircraft docked on the flagship of the second formation took off vertically, and continued to the safe airspace before flying towards the periphery.

After ordering, Zhou Tai began to adjust the fleet formation and set up a defensive formation. The overall strength of the Japanese fleet was comparable to that of the Pacific Fleet. With one to five, Zhou Taike did not have this confidence.

The safest way now is to wait until the large army arrives.

"Damn it!"

Zhou Tai, who had a bad temper, had a bad temper, had a gray face and gritted his teeth.

The flagship of the Japanese fleet, Nine Ghosts.

On the top deck, Fleet Admiral Jiugui Jialong used a telescope to observe the battle situation in the distance, and showed a satisfied expression on his face, and said with a smile: "It's great, continue to shell the shelling and don't give the enemy a chance to breathe."

"Hi!"

Jiugui Jialong noticed the enemy's aircraft that took off and knew that the enemy reinforcements were about to arrive soon. As a pirate name, Jiugui Jialong was not very afraid of the Daxia fleet.

On the contrary, he was full of confidence.

According to Jiugui Jialong's understanding, in history, Japanese pirates often attacked the southeastern coastal areas of China. If they lost less and won more, they would naturally not be afraid of Daxia.

Jiugui Jialong's appetite is not just the enemy's vanguard troops, but to use this as bait to completely defeat the Daxia Pacific Fleet and defend the Japanese sea power.

"Come on!" Jiugui Jialong's lips were smiling.

…………

With the help of mimicry aircraft, communication conchs and signal flares, Shi Lang, the admiral of the Pacific Fleet, soon received a distress signal from Zhou Tai and frowned.

"Send an order to send a red horse boat and a mimetic aircraft to detect the enemy situation."

Shi Lang was not panicked, nor did he directly order reinforcements. It was a taboo for military strategists to attack rashly when the enemy was unknown. As a mature general, Shi Lang naturally would not make such a low-level mistake.

Soon, the four formations released hundreds of red horse boats and spread them into the waters ahead like sea fish, responsible for investigating first-hand intelligence and making decisions by the admiral.

At the same time, five mimicry aircraft took off.

"Transfer the left and right wings to accelerate the advance with combat formation." Shi Lang followed.

"promise!"

During the fleet's marching, information was constantly reported. Shi Lang was surprised at all as Zhou Tai when he learned that the entire Japanese fleet had appeared here.

"It's a problem now!"

Shi Lang looked solemn. Even if he pushed the entire fleet, he would lose one move first because it was a away game. To be honest, Shi Lang was not confident that he could easily win this naval battle.

"There is no choice but to use secret weapons!"

Shi Lang was unwilling to fight with the Japanese fleet at this time, both sides suffered losses. After all, the naval battle was only the first stage of the national war, and the subsequent landing battle was the highlight.

If you are crippled now, this national war will be very difficult to fight.

Before the war, Ouyang Shuo specially equipped the Pacific Fleet with a secret weapon, and Shi Lang didn't expect to use this trump card so soon.

In the fifth year of Gaia, Japan was actively preparing for the war, and Ouyang Shuo did not make any preparations.

Just two months ago, taking advantage of the opportunity to purchase magic crystals from Lemoria, Ouyang Shuo spent one million gold coins to purchase four magic powered submarines from Lima City at one time.

Before the start of the National War, three were rated to the Pacific Fleet and one was rated to the Yashan Fleet.

At Shi Lang's instructions, the three magic-powered submarines accelerated instantly like ghosts, and sneaked towards the battlefield ahead along the position information found by the aircraft.
