The Ming Dynasty has just been exiled and the Luzon system has awakened.

Tokugawa Tsunayoshi simply couldn't bear the fact that Ming Dynasty actually controlled Satsuma Domain.

For thousands of years, the Japanese have always invaded other countries, and there has never been a situation where the army of another country has invaded the mainland!

This is simply an insult to his Tokugawa family!provocative!

Therefore, after finding out that there were only more than a thousand Ming troops in the Satsuma Domain and the rest were traitors and puppet troops, he immediately ordered a crusade against the Satsuma Domain and asked the daimyo from various places to contribute money and troops.

Of course, as Ming Dynasty's reputation has become increasingly famous recently, some people are worried that this move will anger Ming Dynasty and bring disaster to the Japanese country.

But Tokugawa Tsunayoshi completely ignored it.

The news he received was that the Ming army was busy fighting the Qing Tatars in the country at this time, so how could they have time to deal with the Japanese country.

Moreover, the Japanese country has its own divine wind protection. Even if the Ming army sends troops to reinforce, how many reinforcements will come?

Taking a step back, even if the Ming army really came to help, there are still tens of millions of people in his country.

At worst, there will be thousands of citizens and thousands of jade pieces!

He didn't believe it, so many people couldn't defeat the Ming army?

……

Edo Wharf is crowded with people.

Soldiers from various feudal clans, dressed in colorful armor, began to board the ship one after another with samurai swords on their waists and iron cannons on their shoulders.

They are all soldiers sent by daimyo around the Kanto region.

Although the order of the Tokugawa shogunate is not very binding on foreign daimyo in remote areas, it is still quite easy to use on Honshu Island.

And these Japanese pirate soldiers who were sent to fight with Tokugawa Tsunayoshi were also happy to do the job.

Many people even had happy smiles on their faces.

The reason is similar to that of their Emperor Higashiyama. He can eat well while serving as a soldier!

In the current period, although the country of Wa has begun to destroy mountains and reclaim fields to plant rice, it is still in its infancy.

The staple food for ordinary people's two meals a day is still buckwheat, black beans and a small amount of bad rice.

The dishes are salted radish and pickled radish.

The food is really similar to their emperor's.

And white rice is only afforded by the noble class.

It is obvious that the samurai class is only a small part of these soldiers, and the vast majority are light feet recruited from civilians.

For them, things like white rice are delicacies that can only be eaten during the New Year and holidays, but now they can eat every meal.

Moreover, there is a chance to get spoils in battle. Maybe you are lucky enough to grab a valuable treasure and turn over in one fell swoop.

Tokugawa Tsunayoshi, dressed in bright armor, looked at the soldiers boarding the ship in an orderly manner, and he couldn't help feeling proud.

With nearly a thousand warships and more than 3 soldiers, such a grand occasion even gave him the idea that the Sekigahara War was nothing more than that.

"Hmph! The Satsuma clan, this general can easily destroy it!"

Tsunakichi Tokugawa, who was full of self-confidence, let out a cold snort, and then led a group of retainers and generals to his imperial ship Tenji Maru.

This Tenji Maru is the largest warship in the entire Japanese navy after the Anzhai Maru was scrapped.

She is 34 meters long, 7.6 meters wide, equipped with 76 oars, and has a top speed of 6.8 knots.

Different from other plain and simple ships like Seki and Anzake around, the painting of Tenji Maru can be described as gaudy.

Its hull is painted bright red and decorated with gold trim, and the outer side of the upper deck is covered with blue feather cloth painted with the Tokugawa family crest.

Compared with all the boys around, Tenchi Maru is definitely the brightest boy in the port.

"Clang clang clang..."

At this moment, continuous warning bells suddenly sounded from the direction of the fort in the distant mountains.

"what happened?"

Tokugawa Tsunakichi looked puzzled.

Since the Japanese bought cannons from the Dutch and caused the collapse of the country, they built these coastal defense forts.

But since the fort was built, it has never been used, and the bronze warning bell has never been used. Even Tokugawa Tsunayoshi forgot that he still has these forts.

So much so that everyone was a little confused when they heard the bell.

For a moment, the Japanese soldiers stopped and looked around curiously.

"Ships! There are many ships on the sea!"

Finally, a Japanese soldier pointed to the sea and shouted loudly.

It is not surprising that there are ships on the sea, but it is not normal today.

In order to allow his navy to leave the port smoothly, Tokugawa Tsunayoshi had earlier ordered all fishing boats not to go to sea today.

So now under normal circumstances, there will be no ships on the sea.

Could it be a merchant ship of the Dutch?

"Bring General Ben's binoculars!" Tsunakichi Tokugawa said.

The men hurriedly handed over a single-eye telescope.

Tokugawa Tsunayoshi raised his binoculars to take a look, and then his brows were tightly locked together.

"Ming army! Why is the Ming army here!"

He saw the clear dragon flag flying on the ship at sea.

Although Tokugawa Tsunayoshi had never dealt with the Ming army and had never seen the flag of the new Ming Dynasty, this did not prevent him from recognizing the flag of the Ming Dynasty.

After all, he knows Chinese characters from elementary school to high school!

Moreover, the battleships flying the flag of the Ming Dynasty were overwhelmingly black on the sea, and there were dozens of them.

what happened?Didn't it be agreed that he was going to sneak attack Satsuma?But why did the warships of the Ming army appear here now?Is it a coincidence?

Countless question marks popped up in Tokugawa Tsunayoshi's heart.

Regarding his questions, the Qianhu Office of the Japanese Imperial Guard in the Ming Dynasty said that there are not actually that many coincidences in the world.

However, since the navy of the Ming army appeared here, it meant that his sneak attack plan was in vain, but Tokugawa Tsunayoshi didn't panic at all.

The navy of the Ming army dared to take the initiative to come to die, which saved him a lot of trouble. As long as this navy of the Ming army is wiped out, the Satsuma clan will already be in the bag.

Although the warships of the Ming Navy were huge, there were only a few dozen in number, while there were nearly a thousand warships under his command. With such a huge gap, he really couldn't imagine that he would be defeated. .

"Warriors of the Wa Kingdom, the stupid people of the Ming Dynasty dare to ask for death! Now everyone board the ship immediately and follow this general to crush these ridiculous Ming people to death!"

"Kill the people of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Kill the people of the Ming Dynasty!"

As Tokugawa Tsunayoshi raised his arms and shouted, it immediately aroused countless echoes.

Many howling Japanese pirate soldiers have even imagined in their minds where they will go to find treasures after boarding the Ming warship.

They heard that the generals of Ming Dynasty were all very rich!

"Morale is available, this battle must be won!"

Tokugawa Tsunayoshi nodded in satisfaction.

At the same time, on the Ming Dynasty's flagship Taishan, Jia Wenxuan put down the telescope in his hand.

"These dwarfs probably didn't expect us to appear here!"

"Order, all ships are free to bombard! The machine guns pay attention to the Japanese pirates' sampans, don't let them get close!"

Jia Wenxuan smiled grimly.

If it was in the past, when the difference in the number of ships between the two sides was so large, it would be hard to say the outcome.

But now, as more and more warships in the navy are equipped with 37mm rotating cannons, suicide boats that used to pose a serious threat to warships can now only serve as moving targets.

It is no exaggeration to say that they come and kill as many as they come!
