Domineering Daming

Li Dingguo's deputy general, Hei Tianzhongzhi and others responded in a deep voice.

Itakura Shigemasa is also very familiar with their arrangements, since Itakura Shigemasa is going out of the city, they naturally have to respond.

Just when Itakura Shigemasa was secretly swearing, in the Kanmon Strait, in a hidden harbor, Matsudaira Nobuzuna was meeting someone.

The elder of the Tokugawa family, Masakatsu Naito, lord of the Katsuyama domain.

This person is Tokugawa Iemitsu's absolute confidant, even more advanced than Matsudaira Nobutsuna.

The appearance of this person indicates that Tokugawa Iemitsu has raised his attention to this war to another level.

At the same time, Tadatoshi Aoyama's [-] troops unexpectedly arrived at Hirado Castle of the Hizen Domain without anyone noticing it!

This is the northernmost part of Kyukoku Island, east and west of Kanmon Strait.No one knows how Aoyama Zhongjun did it, how he avoided the eyes and ears of the Ming Dynasty, and avoided the inspections of those feudal lords who surrendered to the Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 1366 Clear battle situation

Hirado Castle.

Tadatoshi Aoyama stood on a big rock, looking in the direction of Tsushima Island.

The brackish sea breeze passed by, blowing up Takashi Aoyama's tightly tied hair, covering his stern and stern face.

Behind him stood a group of daimyos, all looking in the direction of Tsushima Island, with different expressions.

Not far behind Aoyama Zhongjun, kneeling were many people dressed in different costumes, some farmers, some craftsmen, some warriors, and some Ming Dynasty costumes, and so on.

One of them said: "Main hall, the villain was originally a fisherman from Tsushima, and the Ming people pretended to be magnanimous and did not do anything to us. After years of observation by the villain, especially in the past few months, the Ming army stationed on Tsushima Island and so on. Outside the navy, there are at most 5000 people, many of them are craftsmen and family members of the army, and there are not many real sergeants..."

The second one said: "Main hall, the villain is a farmer and has been farming on the horse. The Ming people not only did not make things difficult for us, but also charged us a very small rent. The villain of their granary has been there. The Black Stone Palace said that the maximum supply It took three months for an army of one hundred thousand, and now, it's less than a month..."

The Black Stone Palace came out immediately and explained: "Izumoru, I have checked it carefully, and it is indeed the case."

After his words fell, the third one waited for a moment, and said: "The villain is a craftsman, and Mingren signs that we will build the city walls and fortifications for them. The villain has gone through the entire Tsushima Island. Mingren's colleagues are all in the villain's mind." Here, it has been drawn..."

The fourth said: "The villain is a ship repairer. The Ming people's ships go up and down many times. They come in and out very regularly. They have regular repairs and replenish fresh water and food. After three days, they will all enter the port. , for centralized warranty..."

The fifth one stood up and said: "My little friend is a warrior, the Ming people are very interested in our warriors, and they have recruited some training. The little man has seen their recruiter, who is in the city of Tsushima Island. Surroundings are heavily guarded, with dozens of guards following in and out..."

Then came the sixth, and the seventh.

The daimyo around him were very excited by these words, because Tadatoshi Aoyama had told them that the shogunate had formulated a plan to defeat the Ming Dynasty two years ago.

Although this plan had many twists and turns under the attack of the Ming Dynasty, but the twists and turns, it is still at this time!

Tadatoshi Aoyama naturally knew about these people's detailed actions, and this cutscene was for these big names.

He turned around, his grim expression lessened slightly, his gaze remained cold, and he said, "You all heard it, what do you think?"

The family governor of the Ryuzo family said: "Izumori, the foundation of the Ming army is in Tsushima Island. As long as we regain Tsushima Island, it will be equivalent to cutting off the Ming Dynasty's reinforcements in Jiuguo Island, and we can destroy them with our backhand!"

"That's not it. After regaining Tsushima Island, we can still look at North Korea from a distance. In terms of military tactics, it is 'surround Wei and save Zhao'. Maybe it can completely solve our predicament!" Shao Er's family governor said.

"If we can get the firearms of the Ming Dynasty, the offense and defense will change immediately. The Ming Dynasty's domestic disaster is raging, and it is impossible to fight for a long time. Maybe we can still pass this battle and occupy North Korea!" said the Matsuura family governor.

"Matsudaira Palace has led our shogunate navy to sea, and it will be day and night. It will not take long to arrive at Hirado Castle! After Tsushima Island is destroyed, Izu Shou will return to Kyukoku Island, and the Ming Dynasty in Kyukoku Island will be easily destroyed. All the troops on the island, whether defending themselves or going south, can vigorously contain the Ming Dynasty, and the situation is about to reverse..."

In their view, Tsushima Island is the most important transfer and command place of the Ming Dynasty. If it is lost here, it means that the Ming Dynasty's army on Jiuguo Island will lose its command and backup. Like a kite with a broken string, the only result It is to be destroyed!

At the same time, the destruction of Tsushima Island has an additional purpose, which is to wipe out the navy of the Ming Dynasty. Once the Ming Dynasty has no navy, it will be a toothless tiger to Japan. It looks fierce, but in fact there is no threat!

Qingshan Zhongjun listened to them talking one by one, without interrupting, for a while, he said: "Now, do you have any questions?"

In the past, Tadatoshi Aoyama was like an old tortoise, he couldn't shrink back, and his slowness caused a lot of dissatisfaction.

The servants of the Otomo family immediately stepped forward and said: "Gongfang, Izushou is far-sighted and seeks to defeat the enemy with one move. The villain will admire you!"

Others followed one after another. At this point, who cares about what happened before.

Qingshan Zhongjun said with a blank expression: "The following plan is to assign a group of people to the Guanmen Strait to cover our real actions."

What Qingshan Zhongjun has to do is to pretend to join forces with Itakura Shigeshang to eliminate Li Dingguo and blur the Ming Dynasty's vision.

"Yes!" A group of people responded in unison, full of enthusiasm.

Now is the critical moment for the eradication of the Ming Dynasty, and making contributions is just around the corner!

When Tadatoshi Aoyama announced the big plan and made the next plan, the Japanese navy led by Matsudaira Nobutsuna, 4000 large and small ships, and [-] people had quietly left the Kanmon Strait, and quietly sailed to the Chikuzen Domain along the coastline of the West Kaido , ready to join Aoyama Zhongjun.

These ships do not show traces of the Japanese kingdom or the Ming Dynasty. They are more like the armed wear of the Francophone. Xiyi people.

Matsudaira Nobutsuna moved westward along the coastline, hiding at night and coming out at night.

That night, he stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the stars in the northern sky, with a calm expression, but his eyes flashed with worry in the darkness.

A series of wars in the Ming Dynasty seemed to have taken the lead, but there was always a feeling that the strength had not been released. The 20 army has only used [-] to [-] so far, and the remaining more than [-] have not moved at all.

"What the hell is Ming going to do?"

Nobuzuna Matsudaira kept asking this question from the bottom of his heart. The Ming Dynasty was capable of directly attacking the Honguku Island, which was the foundation of the Wa Kingdom.

However, the Ming Dynasty seems to have been deliberately avoiding its own island. Why?

Matsudaira Nobutsuna couldn't figure it out, and he didn't think about it anymore.The war has developed to this point, so he can't help but think about it, so he has to break the boat and go all the way to the dark!

Within a day, Li Dingguo outside the Guanmen Strait Fortress finally received the news.

"My lord, Aoyama Tadatoshi's 2 troops have come from the Chikuzen Domain, and Itakura Shigemasa's army may come out at any time. We only have [-] people, and we are all old and weak soldiers. What should we do?" Li Dingguo's deputy said anxiously.

Not to mention Aoyama Tadatoshi, Itakura Shigesho's 3 people are enough to destroy them.At this time, they didn't have the courage to fight back.

Li Dingguo felt more and more that something was wrong. The actions of Tadatoshi Aoyama and Shigemasa Itakura seemed logical, but they were not in line with the art of war, let alone the overall strategy, and seemed too deliberate.

"What the hell are they going to do?"

Li Dingguo thought for a while, his expression remained unchanged, and said: "I want to write a letter to the governor...the whole army will withdraw twenty miles to the south, and I will personally arrange the ambush!"

"Yes!" The lieutenant said in a deep voice.

Chapter 1367 Collusion

The situation on Kyugoku Island is changing drastically. Aoyama Zhongjun has an army of 2 people heading east, and it seems that he is going to attack Li Dingguo's [-] people with Itakura Shigesho.

Itakura Shigemasa's [-] army has already left the pass and is moving eastward, and will soon join the army sent by Aoyama Tadatoshi.

Li Dingguo received the order and kept retreating.

Dorgon's [-] troops stationed in Yutu County did not move, sitting and watching the changing situation.
