Daming Crazy Emperor

Chapter 340 Sworn to Destroy Japan

On the fifth day of September in the fifth year of Taichang, near the estuary of the Yangtze River, there were dense ships and flags like forests.

The 40 troops of Shenji Battalion and Shenwu Battalion have already moved south, and there are camps on both sides of Taicang New City that can't be seen at a glance.

The Dongyang Navy and the Beiyang Navy have gathered inside and outside Taicang Port, and there are warships that can't be seen on the sea.

This day is an auspicious day, and the wind is sunny, the sky is cloudless, and there are no waves on the sea. It is a good time to go to Japan!
Taichang stood on the top of the city gate, looked at the mighty and majestic soldiers of the three armies outside the city gate, and looked at the densely packed warships in the distance, and then said loudly: "The three animals are sacrificed."

Four strong men immediately came forward carrying the cow's head, sheep's head and pig's head wrapped in red silk, and respectfully placed them on the offering table.

Taichang immediately took the generals of the three armies, respectfully put on the incense sticks, and then took out the proclamation, took a deep breath, and read aloud:
Dongying is a bad neighbor and a surly country.

Unkind and ungrateful, fake etiquette is really crazy.

Cunning and aggressive, treacherous and prostitute.

In the realm of projectiles, jumping over the bridge several times.

In the past, there was a great man who was powerful in all directions.

Do not bully the weak neighbors, treat Dongying kindly.

Canonized Japanese slaves are regarded as children and grandchildren.

A hundred years of grace and great care.

Dongying children are ungrateful.

At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, evil spirits arose.

Coercing Baekje, wanting to go to Silla.

Bullying the weak with guns, bullying our country.

Tang Ting's persuasion for peace fell on deaf ears.

The battle of Baicun was a crushing defeat.

Incorruptible and shameless, begging to survive.

Datang benevolence, do not want to use soldiers.

Tang envoys were sent repeatedly to comfort Fusang.

Teach him Confucianism and Buddhism.

The Japanese pirates in Japan are ambitious.

Successive dynasties have borne grace and never thought of repaying it.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, there were bandits.

Harass Linhai and seize land.

It harms the living beings and destroys the city walls.

Wanli once invaded twice.

If you want to go to North Korea, you will deceive me, Ming Dynasty.

The Celestial Dynasty sent troops to defeat the Japanese pirates.

Guan Baifengchen was so angry that he froze.

He resorted to another trick, abandoning his blade and surrendering.

The first emperor was benevolent and did not want to punish him.

Japanese pirates and their ilk are especially shameless.

Only after signing the agreement, went to Ryukyu again.

Entering Dongfan, reappearing brutality.

How can the Great Tomorrow Dynasty be invaded.

Several times and three times, they made trouble for no reason.

If you don't destroy this thief, you will have trouble sleeping and eating.

Raise troops today to fight against this evil neighbor.

Defend my Ming Dynasty and swear to destroy Dongpu!
As soon as he finished reading, the generals of the three armies downstairs at the city gate shouted in unison: "Defend my Ming Dynasty, and swear to destroy Dongpu!"

Immediately afterwards, the soldiers of the three armies behind also shouted in unison: "Defend my Ming Dynasty, and swear to destroy Dongpu!"

"Defend my Ming Dynasty and swear to destroy Dongpu!"

Around Taicang New City, hundreds of thousands of soldiers roared in unison, the whole earth trembled, and the surrounding sea was shocked.

There is no need for a reason to fight Japan, but it is still necessary to boost morale before going out.

The roars of the soldiers of the three armies became more and more uniform, and the more than [-] troops gradually turned into one voice.

"Defend my Ming Dynasty and swear to destroy Dongpu!"

This prestige simply shocked the world, and this momentum even soared into the sky.

Very good, this momentum is what I want!

Taichang nodded slightly, then slowly raised his hand.

As soon as the roar stopped, he waved his hands without hesitation and said: "The battle is rising, the army is going out."

"dong dong dong dong"

"dong dong dong dong"

"dong dong dong dong"

Unknown how many battle drums were beating on the city wall at the same time, and the sound of the drums was simply earth-shattering.

The generals of the three armies immediately bowed and retreated, walked down the city wall quickly, led the army to board the ship, and prepared to go out.

Taichang saw that the army was pouring into ships of all sizes like flowing water, so he picked up the proclamation on the altar table, handed it to Xia Yunyi who was at the side, and explained in detail: "When the army goes out, you can find another Dongying maritime merchant to hand over the proclamation to others." Give it to him, let him send it to Dongpu."

After sending this call to arms, Ming Dynasty is no longer an undeclared war. As for when the Tokugawa shogunate in power in Japan will receive it, he doesn't care.

I'm just doing a surprise attack, and after the raid is over, I'll stuff your mouth with a letter of proclamation!
Back then Toyotomi Hideyoshi did not write any proclamation, but Toyotomi Hideyoshi just wrote a letter to the King of Korea, saying that he wanted to attack the Ming Dynasty by false means, but the King of Korea disagreed, so he sent troops directly to North Korea.

The Japanese pirates are so arrogant, so naturally there is no need to talk to them about etiquette, let's do it first.

This time, he mobilized two hundred chariots, five hundred Spike warships, fifty Dragon tooth warships, one Aegis ship, more than seven hundred naval warships, and even more sailors. There are as many as 45 people, plus the soldiers of Shenji Battalion and Shenwu Battalion, there are more than [-] people in Ming Dynasty.

With so many horses and warships going out, the scene was too grand to imagine. It took more than two hours just for the soldiers to board the ship.

Taichang saw fifty dragon-tooth warships leave the dock one after another, and then he took Lu Xiangsheng, Minister of War, Yuan Keli, Governor of the Navy, and a group of escorting masters to board the flagship Aegis, and came to the top of the battleship.

Soon, the flagship Aegis left Taicang Port and came to the sea outside the mouth of the Yangtze River.

At this time, more than [-] large and small ships had scattered in all directions, forming a long queue after another and heading straight to the east.

The army finally set off.

Taichang turned the barrel-like binoculars and glanced around, and couldn't help showing a hint of excitement on his face.

With so many warships and so many troops, how can Dongpu resist?
This time, he will definitely destroy Dongpu and complete the great cause that Yuan Shizu never accomplished.

This is just the beginning, there are Nanyang, Xiyang, and Continental, whoever dares to refuse to accept it will all get down!

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, the more he thought about it, the more excited he became, his blood boiled with excitement, and he forgot about the time.

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Xiangsheng finally couldn't help reminding in a low voice: "Your Majesty, why don't we go to see the map of Dongpu and discuss the strategy of marching? After all, it will take more than a month to transport 40 infantry to Dongpu. How can we proceed safely for more than a month?"

Indeed, no matter how close the waterway is to Taicang Port, it is nearly [-] miles away from the Satsuma Domain, and the ship can travel up to [-] miles even if it sails non-stop day and night.

In other words, it takes nearly four days for the ship to transfer back and forth.

And more than [-] large and small ships can only transfer [-] infantry at a time. If there are more ships, it will be a bit crowded, and it will not be safe in wind and waves.

In this way, the Dongyang Navy and Beiyang Navy fleets had to transfer eight times back and forth to transfer all 40 infantry to Satsuma.

In the meantime, days that are not suitable for sailing such as windy and rainy days have to be excluded. It is not bad to complete the transshipment in more than a month.

So, how to advance in this more than a month?

Are they advancing triumphantly or steadily?

In the meeting hall, Lu Xiangsheng and Yuan Keli were staring at the map of Dongying, frowning and thinking.

After all, they have never commanded so many land and water troops to go on an expedition across the sea, which has at least tens of millions of people in Japan.

How people will resist is yet to be seen.

Taichang, on the other hand, was drinking tea calmly, waiting for Lu Xiangsheng and Yuan Keli to speak.

In fact, he already had a rough strategy in mind.

It would be best if Lu Xiangsheng and Yuan Keli could come up with a better strategy.

If the two couldn't come up with a better strategy, then just follow his.

Lu Xiangsheng and Yuan Keli didn't dare to make random suggestions. After all, this was a battle between Daming and Dongpu, and the combined strength of both sides exceeded one million!

Such a war has not happened several times in thousands of years of history.

Moreover, this is no longer a battle of national destiny, but a battle of destroying the country. How dare they propose a general indiscriminately.

Taichang saw that the two of them hadn't spoken for a long time, so he could only ask: "How about this, let's be safe and take our time. For more than a month, we will first occupy the Satsuma domain, build a good port city, and first gain a firm foothold before going What do you think about attacking other places?"

Ah!
It took more than a month to lay down a vassal state?
There are 66 vassal states in Dongying. If you fight like this, you can't fight for five or six years!
This is too safe, right?
Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, isn't it a little slow for us to march like this?"

slow?

In fact, do not hide.

Taichang smiled and shook his head and said: "Not slow, not slow, we want to conquer Dongpu once and for all, not just defeat them."

Completely conquer Japan!
Can Japanese Japanese pirates really conquer it completely?
Of course!
If you don't accept it, do it until they accept it!
