The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Zhu Fan's military capabilities are not inferior to Zhu Di's.

This battle is of great importance, and the tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers should not be underestimated, so Zhu Yan personally led the troops to set off.

Before setting off, Zhu Yan had obtained a map of the surrounding areas where the Japanese soldiers were lurking.

The key to combat deployment is not victory, because victory is inevitable in the case of using more to fight less and using sneak attacks to make clear.

The key point is how to wipe it out.

The first step is to cut off its escape route.

The retreat of these Japanese soldiers is naturally at sea, and there is a high probability that there will be troops stationed there, so Zhu Yan still needs to use sea ships to fight.

On the sea, there is no comparison between the Japanese ships and the Ming Dynasty.

Two days later, the war broke out.

The lurking Japanese soldiers didn't even react, and were stunned by the successive artillery fire.

The loud noise made the commander of the Japanese soldiers shout loudly, but it didn't work.

The Japanese soldiers scurrying around were like headless flies, screaming and running for their lives.

Naturally, it was impossible for 4 Japanese soldiers to gather in the same place. Except for the ship guards, the other [-] or so Japanese soldiers were basically in seven or eight surrounding villages.

Zhu Yan didn't care about the death of the Japanese people in the village at all. According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, although they are now under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, it is a serious crime not to report the knowledge.

Regardless of whether he is a Japanese soldier or a commoner, he will be killed.

Perhaps this is fortunate for Genji Shimoki who came with the army. Because of the filthy tribesmen, those noble warriors will not hide in Shimoki Village at all.

Ordinary Japanese people would not have any contact with Huiduo, let alone higher-class samurai.

If there were hidden Japanese soldiers in Shimoki Village, Zhu Yan would definitely not care about the lives of the people in Shimoki Village, and would directly bombard them as well.

This time, Zhu Fan brought almost all the artillery in the city, nearly two hundred in total.

At the Japanese soldiers' place, they only heard a rumbling sound, and then saw artillery fire falling from the sky like raindrops.

Not to mention the people, there was almost no complete building in the entire village under such artillery fire.

These villages are all wooden structures, which cannot stop the bombardment of artillery at all.

After several rounds of artillery fire, the Japanese soldiers are now scared out of their wits.

Next, it was the Ming army's suppression.

A large number of Japanese soldiers, led by the Ming army, rushed toward the so-called colleagues.

After betraying their own nation, they were more ruthless than the Ming army.

As if this could prove his loyalty to the Ming army.

Chinese army tent.

Zhu Bian listened to the military information that was continuously sent back from the front.

The fighting time was actually not too long, but after about two hours, basically the overall battle was over.

The next main thing is to capture the remaining Japanese soldiers.

Most of these villages are surrounded by high mountains and jungles, with no roads at all.

Many Japanese soldiers ran in in a panic and it was very difficult to capture them.

What Zhu Fan has to do now is to block all the surrounding road checkpoints and force these Japanese soldiers out.

There is no food in the mountains and forests. With so many Japanese soldiers, there must be many who are too hungry to survive and surrender.

It is much more comfortable to work as a laborer for the Ming Dynasty than to starve in the mountains and forests.

"I report to the prince that a total of 730 Japanese soldiers were captured in this battle, and more than [-] were killed. According to the interrogation, the total number of Japanese soldiers was more than [-], and about [-] Japanese soldiers fled into the mountains and forests."

"Our army killed more than [-] people and injured more than [-] people."

The military officer in charge of statistics reported to Zhu Yan.

More than 1 people ran, which is also normal.

After all, these villages are not like cities. You can run around. Even seven or eight villages cannot be surrounded.

More than 3000 casualties were obviously worth it in exchange for such a great result.

What's more, 3000% of the more than [-] people were Japanese soldiers subdued by Zhu Yan. Most of the soldiers of the Ming army were in charge of commanding, and the Japanese soldiers were left to charge and attack.

"Very well, the surrounding area is blocked, and these more than [-] people cannot escape."

"Reward wine and meat, this king wants to reward the three armies, and tell the soldiers to prepare a big pot, drink and eat meat."

Zhu Fan laughed, he really made a lot of money this time.

There are more than 2 Japanese soldiers, the best mining labor force.

Even if it can't be used up all at once in the domain, it can still be transported to Luzon.

On Luzon's side, there is now a lack of a lot of labor.

Zhu Yan suddenly dispatched an army, and the news quickly spread to the ears of the other three feudal lords.

In fact, such a thing is hard to hide from others.

After all, with 10,000+ numbers, there is a lot of movement in the march.

Yancheng.

Zhu Di soon got first-hand inside information.

"The tribal people, descendants of the Southern Song Dynasty in the early Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties? This guy, Zhu Yan, is really lucky."

"That Ashikaga Yoshimitsu lost [-] troops in vain. With such a big movement from the second brother, he must have been informed, and he probably won't dare to come."

Zhu Di was speechless.

Just fight if you say so. It has caused such a big commotion, and now everyone outside knows the situation.

Without even thinking about it, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu must have many informants here on Kyushu Island. Now that the ambush set up has been wiped out, a little thought will tell that the plan has failed.

The next battle will be completely out of the question.

In fact, Zhu Di had already guessed that Ashikaga Yoshimitsu would arrange an ambush when he deduced it.

Before heading to Kitakyushu City, it was decided to arrange a detective horse search.

Now it's like being cut off by Zhu Fan.

This means that all the benefits were taken away by Zhu Fan.

That's not right. Zhu Di also made 30 taels from Xu Huyou.

It seems that no one is at a loss.

"Damn Uedo!"

Yoshimitsu Ashikaga gritted his teeth.

These are [-] elite warriors, and there are a large number of firecrackers, which is equivalent to smashing them all.

The most important thing is that most of the daimyo who passed this time were his direct subordinates.

Regardless of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's control of the Japanese military power, in fact many Japanese soldiers would only obey the orders of the daimyo, rather than the orders of him, the general.

This has greatly weakened the power of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu.

The news cannot be concealed for long, because Shimoki Village has been appointed as the new manager by Jin Wang Zhu Yan.

Shimoki's surname was abolished, allowing them to restore the Han Chinese surname.

In terms of class, they are more noble than ordinary Japanese.

Spending thousands of gold to buy horse bones, Zhu Fan promoted many people from Xiamu Village to officials in charge of many Japanese villages within the domain.

After hearing this news, coupled with the information sent back by Hosaku, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu didn't know that he was betrayed by these despised tribesmen.

"General, if the tribesmen in Shimoki Village will betray us, then the tribesmen in other places will definitely betray us when they hear the news."

"There is an old saying in the Central Plains that it is better to act first, and it is better to clean up all the tribal people in Honshu Island first."

The speaker was Ouchi Shinji of the Ouchi family.

As the ruling family of the Nagato Kingdom, the Ouchi family sent many outstanding young talents of the clan to the past this time.

But I didn't expect that everything was damaged to that point. Even if they were still alive, it would be difficult to save them.

In Japan, there is a rule that a ransom can be paid to redeem the defeated nobles.

But these rules were not easy for the Ming army.

After the Ming army captured the Japanese soldiers, they directly used them as laborers and would not pay attention to the requests of the Japanese nobles.

Even Ashikaga Yoshimitsu wanted to redeem some close family daimyo on Kyushu Island before, but he was rejected by the feudal kings.

Ashikaga Yoshimitsu hesitated.

Massacre of tribal people is not a good thing.

The so-called descendants of the Han people, in fact, most of them are in Kyushu Island.

Burakumin are not only descendants of Han people, but also criminal Japanese, who will also be degraded as Burakumin.

Moreover, after 130 years of development, in fact, these so-called descendants of Han people are almost no different from Japanese people in Zhongzhou Island.

After all, even in the army of the Southern Song Dynasty, most ordinary soldiers were not heirs of the family.

"Your Excellency, General, I need to explain to the family."

"I think other families also need this explanation."

Ouchi Shinji bowed his head and said solemnly.

Ashikaga Yoshimitsu sighed, "Okay, let Shinji-kun arrange this matter."

Ouchi Shinji bowed and saluted: "Thank you, Your Excellency, General."

This defeat, in fact, did not have too much impact on the country as a whole. Now that the country is vigorously recruiting soldiers, [-] Japanese soldiers seem to be a lot, but they are not too many in comparison.

The real influence lies in Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's personal prestige.

So Yoshimitsu Ashikaga also knew that he had to find someone to take the blame.

Not only Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, but also the big names who followed him.

The daimyo of the Wa country belong to the hereditary family inheritance, and the daimyo is similar to the patriarch.

But within the clan, there are many people similar to clan elders, and many famous names often have many competitors.

If they caused the family to suffer too much loss and aroused the suspicion of the family members, then the patriarch could be replaced within the family.

The tribal people are so good to blame, and killing them will not arouse the opinions of the people. In the eyes of many people, these filthy people are so filthy that even the Buddha will not forgive them.

And Hui Duo betrayed the Wa country, and the common people would easily accept such a thing.

It's not that the general's plan didn't work, it was because of those dirty betrayals and betrayal of the general that the noble warriors of the Japanese country failed to defeat the Ming army.

What a great explanation.

There is no need for Ashikaga Yoshimitsu to stay here anymore.

King Jin smashed his ambush, and now it is meaningless to fight against King Yan.

Now I can only go back to Kyoto and look for opportunities again.

Just as Ashikaga Yoshimitsu left, the daimyos of the Nagato Kingdom raised their butcher knives at the tribal people in the territory.

"Damn untouchables, you betrayed the great lord. I will use your blood to pay tribute to the dead warriors!"

They bowed before the Ming army.

And when it comes to dealing with these tribesmen, they use heavy blows.

The tribal people were originally the lowest level of the Wa country, not to mention their shabby clothes, they almost never had a full meal, and all of them were covered with skin and bones.

Facing the Japanese warriors, how can there be any ability to resist.

He was continuously beheaded while wailing.

Some samurai are interested and will compete whose sword can cut off the head faster.

For the poor samurai, it was even more of a carnival. They robbed the tribal people of what little property they had, even if it was pitifully small, to make them more happy.

The primitive animal nature was thoroughly stimulated, perhaps this had always been hidden in their bones.

Even though many people know that most of these tribal people are criminal Japanese, the descendants of the so-called Han people rarely exist on Zhongzhou Island, and they are basically located on Kyushu Island.

But in the eyes of the warriors, it doesn't matter. Most of them are the same, and there is no difference.

Atrocities are spreading.

Not only the Nagato country, but also neighboring countries such as Shuo, Iwami, and Aki have also become popular.

Even some families that did not send their daimyo to fight in Kyushu Island took advantage of this opportunity to commit violence.

What Ashikaga Yoshimitsu didn't expect was that when the beast in the cage was released, there would be no control at all.

There are not many tribesmen, and they are only a handful in the entire Wa country.

These warriors who have experienced the thrill of killing without scruples, those who are not satisfied with the meager wealth of the tribal people.

The butcher's knife extended to those ordinary Japanese villages.

"Ota-san, is it really okay for us to do this? We are not tribal people here. If the news spreads, we will definitely be punished by the government."

Dozens of warriors gathered together and looked towards the village not far away.

The one who spoke was one of the leading warriors.

They are samurai from the Uehara family.

Uehara Ohta chuckled, looked at the village in the distance with greed in his eyes, and said, "Tetsuya-san, as long as we kill all the people in this village, who knows it was the Uehara family samurai who did it."

"This is the border between Zhou Fang Kingdom and Anyi Kingdom. I have already inquired about this village. They have taken in many tribal people."

"If you help the people of Huiduo, can they still be people? They are also Huiduo. It is just for us to kill them."

"Besides, as long as we don't say that we are samurai of the Uehara family, who will know."

"It's not just our Uehara family who is doing this now, there are many samurai from other families doing this as well."

"Tetsuya-san, don't hesitate. Look at the edge of the field. What a lovely girl. I'll let you enjoy it first."

Tetsuya Uehara looked in the direction Uehara Ohta pointed.

Sure enough, I saw a young woman.

The woman seemed to be gathering some wild vegetables at the edge of the field, and her graceful figure caught Tetsuya Uehara's eye.

Compared with Burakumin, normal villages have such beautiful girls.

The surrounding warriors suddenly became greedy.

Someone behind laughed and said, "Zhe Ye-sang, if you don't want it, then leave it to me."

The surrounding warriors immediately booed: "Zhe Ye-sang, I can do it too."

"Tetsuya-san, let that girl go and let me do it."

"Zhe Ye-sang, do you want me to clear the way for you first?"

"Zhe Ye-sang, it's boring to be alone, let me accompany you, what a lovely girl!"

When Uehara Tetsuya heard this, his face showed a bit of shyness, he completely forgot his previous thoughts, and shouted to the samurai next to him: "It's mine, no one is allowed to snatch it."

When it comes to this point, naturally there is no place for hesitation.

Many Uehara family warriors no longer hid and headed straight towards the village.

They couldn't wait any longer.
