Chapter 736

The two daimyos led a total of 1 Ma Qin Wang, and Zhang Fugui killed nearly 2000 of them after a while of tossing just now.

The remaining 7000 who still had combat power soon entered the ambush circle of the Little Tigers.

Seeing that it was almost done, Zhu Cihong immediately sent an order:
"shot"

"Bang bang bang..."

The Ming troops in three directions had already loaded their ammunition, and upon hearing Zhu Cihong's order, they immediately got up and opened fire.

There were not many opponents, and the Little Tigers did not use light mortars at all. They all shot and killed Japanese soldiers with rifled guns at a distance of 120 meters.

Fifteen hundred rifled guns fired in turn, stunned the Japanese soldiers in an instant.

It wasn't until they saw their companions falling down in a row that they realized that they had fallen into the trap of the Ming army. Daimyo Okayama and Daimyo Akita hurriedly sent orders to retreat.

They were not really loyal kings in the first place, so of course they would not confront the Ming army head-on.

"Hurry up, the iron cannon fires to cover the retreat..."

"Bang bang bang..."

Rifled guns and Vulcan guns rang together, and gunpowder smoke filled the battlefield.

The Vulcan guns of the Japanese soldiers could not hit the Ming army at all. Even if they hit the Ming army, the Vulcan guns could not penetrate the body armor and helmets from a long distance, so they could only be killed by the rifled rifles of the Ming army.

After half an hour, more than half of the Japanese soldiers were killed or injured. They fled in all directions in order to escape, and some tried to approach the Ming army and shoot, but they were all shot dead.

As there were fewer and fewer Japanese, the encirclement became tighter and tighter. At this time, the Ming army's grenades began to show their power.

"Whizzing……"

More than 1000 grenades flew towards the Japanese soldiers like small hailstones.

"Rumble..."

The two Xiaofan soldiers had never seen this thing before, and it hurt to hit their heads. They thought this thing could only hit people.

But in an instant, the grenade began to explode, and the Qin Wang soldiers who exploded were bloody and bloody, their skins were torn apart, and their limbs were flying around.

The Japanese soldiers had never seen such fierce firepower, falling down in pieces.

The soldiers and samurai who were still alive no longer cared about their fame, and threw away the Vulcan guns that were too late to reload their ammunition and ran away.

"Cavalry Charge"

With a big wave of Zhu Cihong's hand, the Ming army immediately stopped shooting, and the cavalry of the Little Tiger Squad rushed into the crowd of Japanese soldiers with their knives and swung their knives to kill them.

The combat quality itself is not as good as the Ming army, and there is a huge gap with the Ming army in terms of equipment.

Let them be defeated quickly under the condition of superior force, which directly turned into a unilateral massacre by the Ming army.

"Stop fighting, we surrender..."

Okayama Fan Daming died in the chaos, and Akita Fan could only kneel down and surrender with a few hundred samurai.

Seeing the Japanese surrender, the Ming army did not stop shooting immediately, and all looked at Zhu Cihong.

Zhu Cihong looked at Akita Daimyo coldly, thinking of his father's words in his heart:
"Emperor, don't be merciful to this humble nation like Japan. If you have a chance to kill them, you must not let them live."

This is what Zhu Youjian specially confessed before Zhu Cihong set off for the expedition.

Although Zhu Cihong didn't understand why his father was unwilling to let the Japanese go easily, he knew that his father's words were correct.

Thinking about the multiple harassments of the Japanese on the coast of Daming and the repeated invasions of the vassal state of Korea in history.

Not only did it cause a lot of property loss and casualties to the people along the coast of the Ming Dynasty, but the Emperor Wanli's war against Japan and Aid Korea against Hideyoshi Toyoshiro also seriously injured the vitality of the Ming Dynasty.

"On the bayonet"

Zhu Cihong suddenly said that he would use the bayonet, which stunned the members of the Little Tigers and the four young generals:
"Your Highness, what are you doing with the bayonet?"

Zhu Cihong waved his hand:

"Go up and practice your hands, isn't it a regular training item? They are the best living targets!"

"Your Highness..."

Zhu Cihong's words surprised all the officers present, and they looked at Zhu Cihong in disbelief.

When they first came into contact with Zhu Cihong, they thought His Highness the Crown Prince was always kind and kind, but now they saw that was not the case at all, this guy is also a cruel person.

If they know modern language, they will definitely shout "I rely on"

Seeing his subordinates in a daze, Zhu Cihong knew what they were thinking, and stared at them:
"There are quite a few warriors among them, you must be vigilant, and if you find something is wrong, you must cooperate with each other to assassinate them, and execute the order immediately!"

"Yes"

The four little tigers agreed, and immediately waved their hands:

"Immediately carry out His Royal Highness's order."

"Yes"

The members of the two thousand Little Tigers immediately put bayonets on their rifles, and rushed towards Daimyo Akita and his defeated generals screaming strangely.

Akita Daimyo and the others knelt on the ground, still waiting for the answer from the general of the Ming army. They thought they would escape death by surrendering, and there is no army that does not want to be captured.

But when he suddenly heard a fierce shout of killing, he looked up and almost frightened Hun away.

I saw the Ming army holding a musket in his hand, with a sharp knife stuck in the musket, rushing towards them frantically from three sides.

Of the 1 people killed by the Ming army, only a few hundred remained. They still dared to resist, and the only thing they could do was to escape.

Seeing someone fleeing, the Ming army immediately pulled the trigger and fired the last bullet after chasing, and more than 100 people were killed immediately.

Since they couldn't run away, they went all out, and the Japanese picked up the samurai swords on the ground to meet the Ming army.

"Puff puff……"

Rifled guns equipped with bayonets are much longer than samurai swords, and the number of Ming troops is ten times larger. How can they stop them.

For about half an hour, all the living Japanese were turned into sieves.

This is the first time for the four little tigers to kill people with bayonets. After the battle, they ran to Zhu Cihong excitedly:

"Your Highness, it's so cool! Each of us killed five Japanese."

Zhu Cihong had seen clearly just now that they blasted away their subordinates and challenged the Japanese samurai one-on-one.

But this time, they were not blamed. There were so many Ming soldiers holding rifles to protect them, and they would not be harmed.

"Assemble the team and drive the people from the small town ahead to clean up the battlefield, and those who resist will directly slaughter them."

When Zhu Cihong and the others killed two Japanese soldiers of King Qin, the Ming Navy encountered a broken ship of King Qin, which was sunk by the navy without any effort.

The entire Edo city was completely controlled by the Ming army, and almost all the Japanese in the city were cleaned up.

Of course, all Japanese women who did not resist were left behind, and they would give birth to mixed blood for the Ming army in Edo in the future.

Allowing Japanese women to conceive the excellent seeds of the Ming army can not only improve the short stature of the Japanese, but also benefit the Ming Dynasty's assimilation and management of the entire territory of Japan in the future.

Kuro Tanaka, the old Tokugawa shogunate, originally fled with Tokugawa Iemitsu, but was ordered to stay and negotiate with the Ming army in order to delay the progress of the Ming army's attack on Japan.

The next day, he led a negotiating team of 50 people and knelt outside Edo City with a white flag, begging to see the chief general of the Ming army.

After Qi Jiguang received the report, he discussed with Zheng Chenggong and Zhu Cihong:
"Your Highness, Commander, do you think Daming is negotiating with the Japanese? Your Majesty doesn't seem to have said anything about negotiations."

Zhu Cihong smiled slightly:
"Captain, you should discuss this matter with Governor Zheng, and it is inconvenient for me to participate."

Qi Jiguang knew that His Highness the Crown Prince didn't want to show too much light, so they stopped forcing it.

Zheng Chenggong smiled lightly:
"Captain, Ming Dynasty will definitely not negotiate with the Japanese, at least not now, but you can let them into the city to hear what qualifications the Tokugawa Shogunate has to negotiate."
