Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 723
Yagyu, the number one master of the Satsuma domain, cheated, seeing that most of the soldiers he brought were casualties, and he himself was shot and injured.

Liu Sheng's spirit of fraudulent weaponry was aroused, and he jumped up and rushed to the position of the Ming army.

This is a military commander. If ordinary people see that the situation is not good, they will definitely get rid of it immediately.

"boom……"

Zhang Huangyan raised his hand and shot at his lower abdomen, and the Minnie bullet immediately blasted a bloody hole in Liu Sheng's lower abdomen.

"what……"

Liu Sheng let out a scream, and his body fell from the air, but before his body hit the ground, Lin Feng shot again:
"boom……"

This shot directly turned Liu Sheng into Erlang Shen, and his eyebrows were pierced by a mini bullet and died.

In this way, the top master of Satsuma died in battle for Satsuma.

In the era of hot weapons, no matter how brave you are, it is useless, if you fall behind, you will be beaten.

As soon as the general died, the Japanese scattered and fled in all directions. Zhang Huangyan immediately issued an order:

"Marines, charge..."

"Go ahead!"

"Kill it!"

"Kill all the little Japan..."

Hearing that they were going to charge, the soldiers of the Ming army immediately threw all the grenades on their bodies down the hillside.

After the grenade exploded, they charged down from above.

How can the Japanese remnants and defeated generals block the charge of the Marine Corps.

Rifled guns were used for shooting in the distance, and bayonets were used for hand-to-hand combat close up.

Almost all the Japanese masters died on the way to the charge, how could the remaining remnants block the charge of the Ming Marine Corps.

The rifled guns of the Ming army were all equipped with bayonets, and they had received strict training. They were almost one-shot against the Japanese who had no intention of fighting.

This method of fighting with swords and swords aroused the fighting spirit of the Ming army even more.

Soon they became bloodthirsty beasts, while the Japanese became lambs to be slaughtered.

Three thousand fought against more than 5000 Japanese remnants, and the Ming Marine Corps insisted on killing the Japanese until the entire army was wiped out.

At this time, Li Dingguo also led the Daming Dragon Banner Army, and the corpses of the Japanese soldiers who attacked them head-on were scattered all over the field with blood flowing into rivers.

The remaining 1 Japanese had no choice but to flee to Kagoshima, and the Dragon Banner Army followed closely behind.

When the Japanese retreated into Kagoshima City to count the number of people, it was found that only more than 6000 people managed to escape back.

This battle almost wiped out the Satsuma army. Counting all the soldiers in the city, it is impossible for the Satsuma to have [-] soldiers.

Mitsuhisa Shimadzu was completely dumbfounded at this time, and he began to regret not listening to Junjiro Koizumi.

Thinking of Koizumi Junjiro, Mitsuhisa Shimadzu immediately sent someone to find him, preparing to let him negotiate with the Ming army.

But Koizumi Junjiro had long since disappeared, as if he had suddenly evaporated from the world.

Mitsuhisa Shimadzu could only give up looking for Junjiro Koizumi and immediately called a meeting of all the daimyo under his command.

Although the Satsuma Peninsula is the territory of the Satsuma clan, there are also more than a dozen clans, but after the war, almost all soldiers were killed or injured.

However, there are still quite a few officials, and these big names are all sitting in the hall with their heads downcast at this moment, and they have no idea.

Mitsuhisa Shimadzu saw that they were not talking, so he could only say:

"The Ming army has already approached the city. We have no ability to fight now. We can only work together to defend Kagoshima and wait for the shogunate to rescue. There are still 6 or [-] people in the city. Go and gather them all to defend the city immediately. In addition, in order to delay the time and wait for the reinforcements from the shogunate, we must send people to negotiate with the Ming army."

Hearing that someone was sent to negotiate with the Ming army, a daimyo immediately said:
"Negotiations should not work, and it also means that the army does not accept surrender. Wouldn't that be tantamount to death."

Another Daming got up and said:
"I am in favor of negotiations. If they attack the city, we will not be able to stop them. Liu Shengliou and his son Liu Shengzong and other generals were all killed by the Ming army. There is no one in the city to lead the army to fight. Why don't you give it a try? In case the Ming army Surrender accepted."

"That's right, I should have listened to Junjiro Koizumi's suggestion in the first place. Yagyu's stubbornness caused the current situation. I also agree to send someone to negotiate."

……

After Mitsuhisa Shimadzu spoke first, other daimyos spoke one after another, and almost all agreed to send someone to negotiate, and they were willing to surrender.

Speaking of the people who went to negotiate with the Ming army, everyone thought of Koizumi Junjiro again, but unfortunately he has disappeared.

In the end, Mitsuhisa Shimadzu's uncle Masamiya Shimadzu was willing to risk his life to negotiate with the Ming army for the sake of the Shimadzu family and the future of Satsuma.

At this time, the [-] Ming troops had sealed the four gates of Kagoshima, and were preparing to launch a general attack later.

At this moment, the gate of Kagoshima City slowly opened, and a Japanese man in his 50s came out with a white flag in his hand.

"Don't shoot. I'm from the Shimadzu family. Satsuma is willing to surrender. The villain wants to see your Governor Li."

Li Dingguo was discussing with Zhang Huangyan the tactics of attacking Kagoshima when someone came to report:
"Report, the gate of Kagoshima City has been opened, and the Japanese sent a representative to ask to meet with the governor."

"Oh, they are about to surrender, what does General Zhang think!"

Li Dingguo was a little surprised, and began to surrender before he attacked the city, so he asked Zhang Huangyan for his opinion.

Zhang Huangyan thought for a while:
"We didn't accept surrender, but the siege is a bit hasty now, let's see what Little Japan wants to do."

"Okay, I have the same intention."

"Come here, pass on the order of the governor, let the supplies behind catch up as soon as possible, take a rest and prepare to attack the city."

"Yes"

After the messenger left, Li Dingguo said:

"Come on, let the Japanese come in."

"Yes"

Soon Shimadzu Masamune was brought in by soldiers.

He looked up at the chief general of the Ming army, and there were actually two young generals, which surprised Masamiya Shimadzu, and he secretly said:

"He was able to lead Daming to attack Japan at such a young age. It seems that Daming has a lot of talent."

"You still don't kneel down when you see Lord Tianchao, bang..."

Shimadzu Masamiya was thinking about something, when a Ming soldier suddenly yelled, and then kicked him on the crook of the leg.

Masamiya Shimadzu's legs softened and he knelt in front of Li Dingguo and Zhang Huangyan.

Shimadzu Masamiya ignored the pain from his knee and hurriedly kowtowed to Li Dingguo and Zhang Huangyan:

"General of the Celestial Dynasty, the villain is the uncle of Mitsuhisa Shimadzu, the lord of the Satsuma domain. This time, he was ordered to negotiate with General Daming."

"Hahaha……"

Li Dingguo and Zhang Huangyan laughed at the same time before Shimadzu Masamiya finished speaking.

"Joke, you were ordered to negotiate with General Daming? Thanks to your Japanese thinking, Daming is about to break the city. What qualifications do you have to negotiate with Daming?"

Li Dingguo's expression darkened suddenly, and he scolded Shimadzu Masamiya sharply, leaving Shimadzu Masamiya speechless.

That's right, Kagoshima City will not be guaranteed. What qualifications does Satsuma have to negotiate with the Ming army.

But thinking that there are still [-] to [-] people in the city, Shimadzu Masamiya seems to have found a bargaining chip again, so he said:
"There are still 2 to [-] soldiers and civilians in Kagoshima City, and there are more than [-] young and middle-aged people. If we wait for help, Ming Dynasty should not be able to break through the city easily, right?

If the Ming army attacks by force, there will inevitably be heavy casualties. As long as you promise to let go of the high-level Satsuma clan in the city and give them certain treatment, we are willing to surrender, so that the Ming army can enter the city without firing a single shot. Wouldn’t it be better? "
