"Instructor, are we going to fail?"

Standing on the top of the original city, looking at the overwhelming shogunate army outside the city, Amakusa Tokisada, whose face was full of smoke, began to despair.

"No, we're going to win."

Yuan Shengtu's answer confused him.

"We have nowhere to run."

"Why escape? We have completed our mission."

Yuan Shengtu's eyes are sharp, with the belief of winning.

Amakusa Shizhen only thought that he was comforting himself, and thought to say, these are nothing.

Although he is still young, he is not afraid of death.To be able to fight vigorously, what's not to be satisfied with?

At this moment, Yuan Shengtu's voice sounded again.

"Look, a ship is coming."

Following Yuan Shengtu's instructions, Amakusa Shizhen saw a small boat coming towards the city on the sea in the distance.

Because the original city was close to the sea, and the shogunate lost control of the entire sea, so although the original city was surrounded by groups on land, the passage to the sea was not cut off.

The people on the boat slipped into the city and came to Yuan Shengtu and Amakusa Tokishen.

"Colonel Yuan, this is a military order, please sign it carefully."

Yuan Shengtu pulled him over, looked and looked, and couldn't help laughing.

He handed the order to Amakusa Tokisada.

"Well, I'll say we're going to win."

Amakusa Tokisada was holding the military order in her hands, with a blank expression on her face.

It's all Chinese characters, and he doesn't understand it.

There was no other way, so Yuan Shengtu had to explain it to him.

"The Xia country has declared war on the Tokugawa shogunate, and the army of the Xia country will come here soon to destroy the enemies outside the city. Hurry up and tell everyone, and prepare immediately. This time, we will fight a thorough Great victory."

Amakusa Tokisada was really overjoyed when he heard that Xia Guo directly sent troops to fight.

It didn't take long for the news to spread throughout the Shimabara Volunteer Army.

The morale that had fallen to the bottom rapidly expanded, and everyone was looking forward to it, waiting for the moment to turn defeat into victory.

At the foot of Mount Unzen, Tadashi Kuroda met the messenger of Satsuma Domain.

"Xia Guo really sent troops?"

The messenger has nothing to hide.

"That's right. The head of the family said, I hope the Fukuoka domain can see the situation clearly and not be buried with the shogunate."

Tadashi Kuroda remained silent, making it difficult to make up his mind.

The power of the Tokugawa shogunate made him afraid, and some did not dare to rebel.

But the Xia Kingdom is stronger.

I really want to follow the shogunate to fight against the Xia Kingdom. If I fail, I am afraid that the foundation of the Kuroda family will be destroyed.

At such a time, the messengers of the Satsuma Domain could only show real benefits.

"The Saga Domain, the Tangjin Domain, and the Kumamoto Domain will all become unclaimed land. Xia Guo said that the domain lord can choose a piece of land that he likes."

As soon as he said these words, Kuroda Tadashi couldn't help but thump his heart.

As a big name, he can gain a larger territory, how can he not be moved?
"What if the shogunate pursued it after the war?"

The messenger of Satsuma domain was full of contempt for him.

I want to pick peaches, but I don't want to be beaten, I just want to do good things.

But at this moment, in order to divide the power of the shogunate, it can only be left unchecked.

"Does the lord feel that the shogunate still has the power to govern Kyushu Island after this war? The shogunate will no longer be the shogunate it used to be."

Tadashi Kuroda understood.

I am afraid that after this battle, the power of the shogunate will be greatly weakened.

At that time, let alone riding on the heads of various famous names to make a fortune.Whether it can withstand the resistance of the careerists remains to be seen.

That being the case, it would be too stupid to not consider yourself in a situation of great change.

That night, Kuroda Tadayuki did not inform Matsudaira, but quietly led the army of the Fukuoka Domain and evacuated the Shimabara Peninsula through Aino.

Not long after he left, Aino's place quickly became lively.

Countless ships approached the coast, and groups of Xia soldiers began to land.

It's the Army Corps.

Yamada Yuei is also among them.

In addition to him, there are several young talents selected by the Satsuma domain.

These people had already changed into Xia Jun's uniform at this time, and while feeling the comfort of the new uniform, they were a little frightened.

"Respected General Tang, is the [-]-strong force a little too small? Although the Fukuoka Domain withdrew from the battle, the daimyo of the pedigree will still follow Nobuzuna Matsudaira closely, and the force is several times ours."

Tang Wenhuan observed the terrain with the binoculars and smiled slightly.

"Look at this place, can you deploy too many troops?"

Yamada Yuei picked up his binoculars, and while watching, his heart was surging.

Since entering Xia Jun, he has received too many novel things.

And the more contact, the more powerful Xia Jun's terror can be felt, which also makes him obedient in advance.

Not only him, but all the people of Satsuma domain are extremely fortunate so far, and chose to follow the Xia Kingdom.

The shogunate is definitely not the opponent of Xia Guo.

"It would be enough if we just stopped Nobuzuna Matsudaira. I'm afraid that the shogunate's army will come to reinforce us, and we will be attacked from both sides."

Yamada Yuei was very attentive and helped Tang Wenhuan analyze the situation.

Next to him, Hao Huaqing couldn't help but smile.

"Now that the entire sea is under the control of our Xia Kingdom's navy, how did the shogunate cross the sea?"

Yamada Yuei was stunned for a while, and once again felt the importance of sea control in this place.

Nobuzuna Matsudaira, who was far under the original castle, did not know that his back path had been cut off.He is still racking his brains, thinking about how to break through the original city.

But since ancient times, siege warfare has not had too many flowers.

"Since there are not many artillery pieces in the city, this is a good opportunity for us to attack. Starting today, we will attack from all sides, regardless of priority, and we must not give these pariahs a chance to breathe."

After many days of fighting, the firepower in the city was much sparser.This made the confidence of Matsudaira Soaring, and decided to strengthen the attack.

The next day, the weather was fine and cloudless.

The troops of the shogunate walked out of the camp one by one and assembled in the open space under the city, forming one square after another, waiting for the order of Matsudaira Nobuzuna.

They will bravely rush to the head of the original city.

Nobuzuna Matsudaira was very satisfied with the loyalty of these cronies.

"If that's the case, then..."

Before he finished speaking, someone suddenly exclaimed.

"what is that?"

Matsudaira Nobuzuna was interrupted and felt very unhappy that it had damaged morale.However, following the instructions, he was also stunned.

Seeing the back of Yuancheng, like a conjuration, a long line of warships suddenly flashed out.

Roughly, there are at least dozens of them.

These warships are so close, only a hundred meters away from the shore.

And the flag flying on the ship said it all.

These are the Xia Kingdom Navy!

Matsudaira Nobuzuna turned pale in an instant and had a premonition that something was wrong.

"Enemy attack! Withdraw!"

Unfortunately, it was too late.

It took more than an hour for the formation of tens of thousands of troops, and it was absolutely wishful thinking to retreat smoothly at this time.

The navy of the Xia Kingdom came with a premeditated plan, how could they give them a chance to retreat calmly?
On the flagship at the forefront, Huang Fei showed a cruel smile as he looked at the chaos of the shogunate army on the shore.

"fire!"
