Late Ming Dynasty: Infinite Violent Soldiers

　　I never dreamed that there would be an enemy coming across the sea, and it was such a powerful and terrifying force! The harbour pier was occupied by the Chengshan ship with almost no resistance, and the marines landed ashore immediately, and established defensive positions,

　　The Japanese island has gained a firm footing.

　　A guarded Marine Corps has established a firm foothold on the Japanese island, which means that the most dangerous stage of cross-sea landing has passed.

　　Landing operations are more cruel, bloody, and more difficult than siege warfare.

　　But once they successfully landed and gained a firm foothold, it was the same as breaking the city gate and killing the city, and then it was almost time for a vertical and horizontal slaughter.

　　Zhang Hong, commander of the Chengshan Fleet, looked at the soldiers of the second guard of the Marine Corps. The entire guard had successfully landed safely and successfully, and had built a defensive formation. Relying on the harbour pier, he began to rapidly expand into the island, establishing a larger area. broad line of defense.

　　At the same time, the peasants who went on the expedition with the boat also got off the boat and went ashore one after another.

　　It is necessary to establish a port city that can be called a naval base in the fastest time at this unremarkable port terminal, with extremely complete city defense facilities! "The Marine Corps guards the periphery, guarding the naval base and the seaport. and go deep into the island to catch more prisoners for me to speed up the construction!”

　　"Leave one squadron stationed at the port to defend against attacks by foreign ships, and the remaining five 55th squadrons, spread out for me, and give me the entire western coast of the Japanese country. On the sea, no ships, including fishing boats and merchant ships, can appear!"

　　"In addition, in the southeast corner, Kyushu Island, which is closer to my Ryukyu Port, the entire island has been blocked by me, and no ship is allowed to go to sea. If possible, take down Nagasaki Port on Kyushu Island by the way! "

　　Zhang Hong immediately ordered the staff around him.

　　Kyushu Island is very close to Ryukyu Island, and Nagasaki is the most important and most prosperous foreign port of Japan in this era.

　　Of course, the Tokugawa shogunate did not let go of this piece of fat, grabbed it directly from Hizen, and made it directly under the commander.

　　Zhang Hong's interest in the entire Japanese country is these silver mines, sulphur mines and port cities.

　　Not to mention the prosperity of Nagasaki Port, it is also the best transfer station between Shimane Port and Ryukyu Port, which is currently under construction.

　　After all, in this era, the power speed of sailboats is slow, and the speed of ships is unstable. In addition, wooden sailboats have poor ability to resist wind and waves. On this journey, there must be no less ports! Occupying Nagasaki Port is also an important factor for the Chengshan Fleet to colonize the Japanese country. Supplement! With the current strength of the Japanese state, it only needs to send more than a thousand soldiers, thousands of peasants, plus muskets and artillery, enough to take Nagasaki Port and hold it.

　　Shimane: Port and Nagasaki Port will serve as two important support points for Japanese colonization, and their strategic positions are extremely important.

　　Once these two areas are captured, the port is built, and the defense line is built, the Chengshan Fleet can rest assured and boldly colonize the Japanese country.

　　What is colonization is that there is no need to discuss with the original owner at all, occupying the port terminal, taking the port city as the base, rapidly expanding inward, and frantically plundering resources! Predatory colonization, there is no need to consider subsequent development issues at all, just burn, kill and loot. .

　　In this way, there will be no loss! Not to mention, occupy those silver mines and sulphur mines and mine them in a frantic plundering style, and you will make a profit! The fleet set off everywhere and started frantically bombarding merchant fishing villages.

　　Raging the entire western coast of Japan!

Chapter 3: Japanese Unrest, Marines Attack (5/[-])

　　"Mom, what are these!"

　　On the waters off the west coast of the Japanese country, on a Japanese fishing village, the Japanese fishermen looked at an artillery battleship in the distance, speeding up towards them, menacing and full of malice, and couldn't help exclaiming.

　　On the west coast of Japan, it is difficult to see the existence of armed merchant ships.

　　And in this era, the small country and the few people in Japan have always called the musket as a cannon.

　　When they actually saw the artillery that weighed thousands of kilograms or even thousands of kilograms, they all seemed to have seen some kind of divine object. They were shocked! What shocked them even more was that on an artillery battleship, There are as many as a dozen or even dozens of cannons like this kind of fetish! What kind of power is this! How rich is this to be able to forge so many cannons, and all of them have such a large caliber Artillery! In this era, although artillery technology is mature, most of them are still made of copper.

　　As for casting a gun with steel, it requires technology, and the technology is extremely high.

　　Today, only the English navy, which is developing rapidly and even surpassing the Spanish Armada, can't stand it because of the high cost of casting guns, so they start to try to use lower-cost steel casting guns.

　　It's just that England's steel casting technology is still immature and can't be used at all.

　　Looking around the whole world, only Weihaiwei is in control of the steel casting technology.

　　The Japanese country is shutting down the country, how can they know that what happens in the outside world is in their eyes, and they have to use copper to cast guns, and there is still a lot of copper! But because the Japanese country is really short of copper, it is difficult for them to imagine that they would cast a door on a door. Cannons weighing thousands of pounds or even thousands of cannons cost an astronomical amount of money! Not to mention dozens or hundreds of cannons! At this time in Japan, there was a tiger squatting cannon from the Ming Dynasty that was hundreds of years behind. For them, it is already an extremely powerful artillery piece! Weihaiwei is just an unprofessional [-]-ton warship with more than a dozen large and small artillery pieces. When it appeared in the eyes of Japanese fishermen, it became a giant.

　　Especially when I saw this artillery battleship rushing towards them aggressively, I was all scared to pee.

　　"Run, run!"

　　An elderly Japanese fisherman on the fishing boat saw at a glance the artillery battleship rushing towards them, full of malice, and screamed heartbreakingly, trying to escape quickly.

　　It's just a pity that this kind of fishing boat, which is built with a few wooden boards and needs to be rowed manually, is indistinguishable from a target boat floating on the sea in front of the artillery battleship.

　　As the artillery battleship approached a distance of [-] meters, a ten-pound artillery fired immediately! It hit the fishing boat with precision, blasted the Japanese fishing boat into the sea on the spot, and sent more than a dozen Japanese fishermen on the fishing boat into the sea. Feed the fish.

　　"it is good!"

　　"This shot is so accurate!!"

　　"Hahaha, this kind of opportunity to practice guns is rare, next time, everyone will grab it from me!"

　　""

　　The artillerymen on the artillery battleship burst into laughter after being hit by the sunk fishing boat.

　　Especially the artillerymen who fired the guns almost danced.

　　On the wide sea, and still sailing at a speed of more than ten knots, it is not easy to hit the enemy ship with one cannon.

　　Even at such a close distance of [-] meters! Practice [-]-meter close-range artillery shooting, which is an item that all artillerymen of Chengshan Fleet need to practice.

　　Because in the future battles between artillery and battleships, the most reliable way is to form a battle line and shoot at close range! The competition is who can shoot more accurate guns, more guns, and more powerful guns in a short period of time. Great! Although in the entire East Asian waters, the Weihaiwei Navy is difficult to meet a real opponent.

　　But, sooner or later, it will come across.

　　Pride is pride, but from the beginning to the end, the naval soldiers of Weihaiwei never let down their vigilance.

　　The scene of sinking fishing boats on the sea appeared all over the west coast of Japan. With the attack of the five 55th squadrons of the Chengshan Fleet, the fishing boats, merchant ships, and warships on the west coast of Japan all suffered! In this kind of Chengshan Fleet , In front of the fast and powerful warships, they hardly have any power to fight back! What's more terrifying is that they can't even run! Countless ships and Japanese sailors died in the sea as the ships were sunk.

　　As for the number of Japanese people who died in this operation, Chengshan Fleet has not counted them, and they are even indifferent.

　　In the eyes of all officers and soldiers of the Chengshan Fleet, the dead Japanese people are the best Japanese! The Chengshan Fleet only counted that in a short period of time, they sank thousands of ships of various types on the west coast of the Japanese country! The Japanese people on the west coast of the Japanese country changed their color when they heard the sea.

　　I didn't even dare to mention it when I went to sea, and when I mentioned it, I was scared and scared to wet my pants.

　　Japan was originally an island country with little arable land, and most of its food depended on fishing.

　　Now that even ships are not allowed to go into the sea, it is conceivable that if there is no food, what kind of turmoil will be caused within the Japanese country.

　　All over the western coast of the Japanese country, in many places, because of the extremely hungry Japanese serfs, they rose up one after another and started riots such as frantically attacking the Japanese samurai and daimyo merchants.

　　The entire western coast of the Japanese country was completely in chaos because of the Chengshan Fleet's actions to blockade the waters and clean up irrelevant ships.

　　For human beings, nothing to eat is extremely terrifying! People who are extremely hungry, even serfs who are usually numb and seem to have no emotions, will be furious, pick up their weapons, and start killing people and setting fires.

　　This devastating strike on Japanese ships has far surpassed the actions of the Weihai Fleet in Korea.

　　Knowing all this, Zhang Hong couldn't help but be surprised. He immediately clapped his hands and laughed, and continued to order: "All the squadrons go to the east coast and sink all the ships on the east coast of the Japanese country!!"

　　"It's good if the Japanese country is in chaos, it's easier for us to colonize when it's in chaos!"

　　The Japanese country is short of food, but he has a fleet of mountains! The Japanese country is in chaos, so he only needs to take out a rice ball and a dried salted fish, and he can let the serfs of the Japanese country work hard for him! The price is extremely high! For the colonists, labor is also a resource that can be looted! Cheap labor is the most popular! "Very well, order the second guard of the Marine Corps, start dispatching, and take down Shimane: the county seat for me, Completely occupy Shimane: area, and then let us take out some food and salted fish, recruit a large number of Japanese serfs, and let us go to the silver mine to mine!"

　　Zhang Hong immediately ordered the Marine Corps to launch an attack! In the past few days, the naval fleet has been dispatched, and the construction of Shimane: Harbor on the island has not stopped. , The prototype of a seaport city has quietly appeared.

　　Although it is still not perfect, the wharf and the fort have been built.

　　The Marine Corps can also officially attack! Feilu reminds you: three things to read, collect, recommend, and score

Chapter 4 Shimane Daimyo's Fear (5/[-])

　　Shimane: The county is said to be the county seat, but in fact, it is not much different from the towns in Daming. The periphery is only four or five meters high, surrounded by small earth walls, and the city walls can’t be called, and there are no beacon towers, artillery towers and other defensive facilities.

　　Even Daming said that "horses can run on the city wall"

　　There is no such argument! The Japanese army defended the city, and most of them used ladders to defend the city. Because the city wall was too thin, there was no need to climb the city head at all, and there was not even a place to stand on the city head.

　　This kind of wall-like city defense is still somewhat useful in the age of cold weapons, especially in places where Japanese weapons are extremely scarce, and it cannot be said that it is too weak.

　　Because other people's opponents are their own people! Everyone's level is the same, and there is no such thing as strong or weak.

　　The competition is still the number of warriors under his command! Which daimyo has more warriors, then which daimyo is stronger! The Japanese war is basically the battlefield of the Japanese warriors. As for those temporarily recruited serfs, they are not soldiers, they are purely a number of people. of.

　　No training, no understanding of military discipline, or even a little military literacy, only know that swarms rushed to cut people, or were defeated and scattered serfs, which can be called soldiers! Shimane: the name of the county , The power is not big or small, although its subordinate territory has the Iwami silver mine, but this Iwami silver mine is directly controlled by the Tokugawa shogunate.

　　Therefore, after all the hard work, he was able to raise less than [-] warriors.

　　Eight hundred samurai, in Japan, can be regarded as not weak, and when they fight, they can also recruit serfs. They are not just a bunch of people, or they have thousands of soldiers! Therefore, Shimane: the county name, there is no Feeling that his troops are not enough, he is very relieved to stay in his mansion, exploiting the serfs in the territory and enjoying life.

　　Although the Iwami Silver Mine doesn't belong to him anymore, but in his own territory, the Tokugawa shogunate can eat meat, and he can also share a soup! It's just that in the past few days, Shimane: The county's name is very headache. , There are forces suspected of coming from Daming, driving a warship, crossing the sea, and entering his territory.

　　What made him even more depressed and headache was that he found out that it was too late. Before he noticed anything, the army of this force had already landed on the shore, and on the coast, the piers and forts were expanded. Build a seaport city and stay forever on his turf.

　　He wanted to lead the troops to drive him down, but his retainers told him that this fleet, which was suspected to be from Daming, actually sent an army of [-] to [-]! The strength of the troops far exceeded his expectations! The thing is, the warriors among them actually have as many as five or six thousand. Except for the cavalry, almost everyone wears armor and helmets! Armed to the teeth, armed to the point of anyone looking at it, they are shocked.

　　Without saying a word, Gen: The daimyo of Shima Prefecture, the Crazy River Shogun asked for help and asked them to send troops.

　　Fortunately, these Da Ming people did not immediately attack his city, but built a port, which made him relieved, and at the same time anxiously prayed that the reinforcements would be exhausted.

　　Just like that, I waited for several days.

　　Suddenly the retainer told him a shocking news. The ships on the west coast of the entire Japanese island suffered a devastating blow. No one who went out to sea and not a single ship came back, causing panic in the entire west coast of the Japanese island.

　　because of the ships

　　Unable to go out to sea, many fishermen could not go out to fish, and without a source of food, they were so hungry that they began to frantically loot other people's food, which directly led to a chain reaction. During the operation to snatch food.

　　It directly led to the generation of a large number of rogues, who frantically attacked the territorial mansions of the samurai daimyo.

　　The entire west coast of the Japanese island is in chaos! The Japanese country is not very big, and the chaos on the west coast has also caused turmoil in many places on the east coast.

　　In just a few days, the entire Japanese country was in chaos! This is the horrific consequence of not having enough food to feed so many people and being cut off from the source of food.

　　Most of the troops of the Tokugawa shogunate have been sent to various places to madly suppress the rioters and refugees, and it is impossible to send troops to come to support!

　　With a bang, a roar rang out.

　　"They did it, absolutely they did it!"

　　"Those who destroyed fishing boats and merchant ships were definitely the people of the Ming Dynasty!"

　　Gen: The island county daimyo reacted instantly. Although he didn't have any evidence, he immediately decided that it was the Da Ming faction who occupied his territory and frantically built the port and wharf.

　　"They are really ruthless!!! They actually destroyed all the ships in our Japanese country, so that we could not go out to sea to fish, and they also cut off our Japanese country's overseas trade routes and cut off the entry of overseas grains. They want to starve us to death!"

　　"These Daming people are really crazy!"

　　The retainers and warriors around them shouted loudly, one by one, roaring in anger, furious.

　　Gen: The island county daimyo sneered: "This is revenge from Daming, they hated the wandering warriors of our Japanese country, they plundered the Daming coast for hundreds of years, they have long remembered the hatred in their hearts, and now they come here Revenge!"
