Chapter 518
The lord of Hiroshima City is actually not an ordinary person. His family is also a well-known big family in the island country-the Abe family.

The Abe family is different from the Iga family. The Iga family chose neutrality in the battle between Oda Nobunaga and the Emperor of the Island Kingdom and did not defect to any side.But the Abe family clearly chose Oda Nobunaga's thigh, and between the appearance of Oda Nobunaga, the Abe family was the emperor's loyal dog.

It can be said that if it were not for the rebellion of the Abe family, the emperor of the island country would not have the slightest ability to resist in this struggle and can only be a puppet.

The lord of Hiroshima City is the grandson of the current patriarch of the Abe family. Although he has some abilities, he is still too young and his temperament is not good enough.The commander of the Hiroshima Navy is the uncle of the Hiroshima City Lord. Now that the City Lord feels that his life is threatened, the first thought in his mind is naturally to ask his uncle for help.

"My lord, according to the news sent back, the main force of the enemy army has not yet arrived. Why don't we attack first and destroy their food and grass?" Just as the city owner of Hiroshima City was in a hurry, the counselor on the side stood up in good time. , made a policy to the city lord.

After listening to the words of his counselors, the city lord suddenly realized.He had been attracted by the camp that could accommodate a hundred thousand troops before, but now he calmed down and thought about it carefully, most of the camp was empty.

"It makes sense. Tell me, how many soldiers are there in the city now?" After the city lord calmed down, he returned to his usual judgment.As long as there are enough soldiers in the city, even if the military camp is built with a scale of 20, it will be just an empty camp.

Seeing that the city lord had returned to his former heroic appearance, the counselor was also overjoyed.When the time comes for the city lord to defeat the enemy army outside the city and make great contributions, then he, the aide who mentioned the city lord, will naturally not be treated badly.

At that time, as long as the Abe family has taken a fancy to him, he will be considered to be on the pinnacle of life in the future, and he can marry Bai Fumei.

Now being asked by the grandson of the head of the Abe family, the counselor also quickly replied: "Because of the previous order of the adults, some scattered soldiers nearby have also entered the city recently. Although there are not many soldiers in the city now, there are 6000 soldiers." many."

After listening to the counselor's report, the city lord nodded.

More than 6000 soldiers are not a small number.Toyotomi Hideyoshi put down the rebellion on Kyushu Island, but he only brought 300 soldiers. After returning, there were more than [-] soldiers left.

Although the soldiers in the city are not as elite as the elite soldiers that Toyotomi Hideyoshi took away from Oda Nobunaga, with this number placed here, others cannot ignore it. "How many people have the enemy gathered now?"

"The enemy army is too scattered, but according to preliminary estimates, the number should be around [-], and at most it will not exceed [-]." When asked about the number of enemy troops, the counselor paused, and then carefully said something scope.

"Oh!"

As soon as the counselor finished speaking, a tea bowl fell on the counselor's head.From about five thousand to less than ten thousand, the difference in this number is not ordinary. It is no wonder that the city lord suddenly became angry at this time.

"We only have 6000 people. If we take advantage of the fortification of Hiroshima City, there is still a chance to stand firm and wait for reinforcements. If we do what you say, wouldn't this great advantage be handed over to others in vain? Say, who sent you here?" What are you thinking about?" At this moment, the city lord directly doubted the counselor's intentions.

The counselor was beaten and was a little unresponsive.At this time, hearing the words of the city lord again, the counselor was immediately confused.He thought that this answer might be bad, but he never thought that it would be such a result.

"My lord, my lord, please listen to my explanation..." At this moment, the counselor was so terrified that he knelt down on the ground, begging for a chance to explain.

It's just that the Hiroshima city lord is going crazy at this moment, so how could he give the counselor a chance to explain. "Come here, drag him down, I don't want to see him again!"

Without asking the counselor to explain, two guards rushed in outside the door and dragged the counselor out.

The conversation between the city lord and the counselor just now, they heard clearly outside the door.You know, although they came to the city lord's mansion to be on duty today, if there is a big battle, they will still go to the battlefield.

As a soldier, it is nothing to go to the battlefield. If you don't go to the battlefield, how can you get meritorious service?
However, the camp outside the city can accommodate 10 people, and now there are roughly 5000 to 1 people.Excluding the number of soldiers to be left in the city, there are at most [-] soldiers who can fight.When the time comes to fight, it will definitely win less and lose more.If the enemy army has another ambush or something, it will be impossible to come back.

Therefore, the two guards wanted to drag the counselor away quickly. When they saw that the counselor wanted to say something, one of the guards directly gave the counselor a fist.

Because Ye Mo built a camp outside the city, which frightened Hiroshima City, but made Wei Yan and others in the city relieved.

After re-infiltrating Hiroshima City, Wei Yan and others did not rush into action. Instead, after observing the situation in the city, they decided not to take any action for the time being and just began to explore various important targets and measures in the city.

After receiving the letter from the Lord of Hiroshima Castle, the Commander of the Hiroshima Fleet, who was cruising in the Kanmon Strait, changed his face drastically.According to the news passed by his nephew, a hundred thousand troops have been assembled outside Hiroshima, which shows that their current plan to besiege Kyushu Island is useless at all.

Although military orders cannot be violated, it is impossible for him to doubt his nephew's news.

Find the commanding general of the Kyoto Fleet, and the general of the Hiroshima Fleet also passed the news from the Lord of Hiroshima City to the general of the Kyoto Fleet. "Regardless of whether the news is true or not, I must go back to Hiroshima Castle. On the side of the strait, I will leave it to the General."

"What did General Abe say? Now because of General Oda's order, I can't go to Hiroshima with the general. Here, I wish the general a victory!" The general of the Kyoto fleet also had no news about the Lord of Hiroshima Castle. Suspicion, the Abe family still dare not lie about this kind of thing.

After bidding farewell to the generals of the Kyoto Fleet, the Hiroshima Fleet also embarked on a journey home under the leadership of the generals of the Hiroshima Fleet.

When the Hiroshima fleet left the Kanmon Strait, it was immediately detected by the Han reinforcements.Without the threat of a main navy, it would be more difficult for them to find opportunities to cross the strait.

During the time when the Hiroshima fleet returned, Wei Yan and the others also found some important targets that could be destroyed, including the granary of Hiroshima City.It's just that at this time, the granary seemed to be very well defended, which prevented Wei Yan and the others from getting a chance.

But even though they didn't find an opportunity to destroy the granary, they did collect some other important things during this period of time.During these hours, Wei Yan and the others found a lot of oil.

Although it is only vegetable oil for cooking, the flammability of the oil will not change greatly because of their different uses.But despite the important differences between vegetable oil and kerosene, what does that matter?
