- As time passed, the threat from Edo City loomed over Zhao Hongyu and the others.
However, except for some people who are worried about the threat from Osaka. Zhao Hongyu was not too worried because he was confident that he could face the shogunate's army's crusade.
But not everyone is as relaxed as Zhao Hongyu, because they don¡¯t know what Zhao Hongyu relies on.
¡°However, Zhao Hongyu also has problems that he is worried about.
If it were a conventional cold weapon war, Zhao Hongyu would not be afraid at all.
What he cares about and worries about is the assassination from the ninjas from the shogunate.
This is what makes Zhao Hongyu a little worried deep in his heart.
Fortunately, he was lucky. He got the support of the remnants of Tokugawa a few days ago, and was joined by ten people from Iga.
This allowed Zhao Hongyu to make up for this weakness.
After the arrival of the Iga Ten people, they issued a unique summoning signal for the Iga-ryu, summoning all the Iga-ryu ninjas who were living outside to the camp.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu now has a very sophisticated ninja army under his command.
Therefore, he can rely on the Iga-ryu who have taken refuge in him to fight against the Koga-ryu in the shogunate.
As long as the ninja problem of the shogunate can be solved, Zhao Hongyu is fully confident that he can achieve his set goal in Japan, which is to defeat the shogunate's crusade army and then force them to cede Kyushu.
Zhao Hongyu had never thought about starting a full-scale war with Japan, at least now is not the time.
It is not impossible to let Zhao Hongyu go to full-scale war, but he did not come to Dongfang to go to war with Japan.
If a full-scale war started, Zhao Hongyu would have to spend a lot of time.
This is very not in Zhao Hongyu¡¯s interests.
So, now he can only give up this idea.
It¡¯s not that Zhao Hongyu doesn¡¯t want to do this, it¡¯s just that he can¡¯t do it at this time.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡
"Your Highness, we have recently received news that the shogunate has sent three naval divisions with a total of 120 warships from Anan, Awaji Island in Shikoku, and Wakayama in the south to Osaka. It seems that the shogunate is like a general. Our retreat will be cut off and we will be completely wiped out here."
On this day, after Hattori Chizuru received the news from the Shogunate Navy, he quickly came to Zhao Hongyu to inform him.
Hearing this, Zhao Hongyu burst out laughing, his expression full of disdain and ferociousness.
"It's good that I don't go to trouble their navy. The shogunate actually let the navy come to trouble me." Zhao Hongyu said to Hattori Chizuru with a cold smile. "Don't worry, you don't have to worry about this problem. I can easily deal with the shogunate's navy. Do they think my battleships are just decorations?"
After saying that, Zhao Hongyu called for the temporary commander of the Imperial Guard.
Originally, the commander of the Guards was Wang Shan, but because Wang Shan wanted to develop the San Francisco area, the commander of the Guards around Zhao Hongyu was changed to someone else.
This guy, who is the commander of the Temporary Guards, is also a genetic person.
Therefore, in terms of loyalty, there is no need to worry at all.
"Your Highness, are you looking for me?"
After the genetic commander of the Imperial Guard came to Zhao Hongyu, he asked angrily.
Zhao Hongyu nodded: "I'll give you a mission. Go to sea immediately. At the same time, Emma and Sarah have them contact the fleet stationed at Osaka Commercial Town Port to go to the southern entrance to the Pacific Ocean. The shogunate sent A fleet of one hundred and twenty warships is heading towards them. It looks like it will wipe out all our warships here, leaving no way for us to survive."
When Zhao Hongyu said these words, his face looked a little gloomy and ferocious.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
"Tell Sarah that I have appointed her as the temporary fleet commander. At the same time, you can tell her that she can delegate the command power to each captain before the war and let each captain make his own decision."
"yes!"
"At the same time, tell Sarah that after defeating the shogunate's expedition fleet, let them quickly go to the Edo area and bombard Edo Castle for me!"
Zhao Hongyu was also angry this time!
Today¡¯s Edo Castle will be the largest capital city of Japan a few hundred years from now.Capital ¡®Tokyo¡¯.
It¡¯s just that it¡¯s not called this yet.
But whether it is Edo Castle or later Tokyo, they have a very prominent weakness.
That is because the city is too close to the coastline. If it is attacked from the sea, the entire city will become very dangerous.
Of course Zhao Hongyu knows this.
However, the shogunate actually sent a navy, so he had to show the shogunate how powerful his fleet was.
It¡¯s rude to come and not return.
Zhao Hongyu can imagine that if his fleet bombards Edo Castle, the shock to the shogunate's soul will definitely not be small.
As for after the fleet leaves, the 800 people on our side plus 400 to 500 captive soldiers will have to face the combined military forces of Tajima and Shanbo.
¡° However, Zhao Hongyu is not worried at all about this.
Because he is confident that he can defeat the next two big names.
The Gene Commander turned around and left, and soon arrived at the beach. Then he took a small boat to the battleship listening to the sea and saw Sarah and Emma.
When he conveyed Zhao Hongyu¡¯s order to Emma and Sarah, he left the battleship and returned to the camp.
And Emma and Sarah, who had received Zhao Hongyu¡¯s order, did not dare to neglect at all.
They immediately issued an order for the warship to raise anchor and set sail.
Standing in the camp, Zhao Hongyu watched the three heavy battleships on the sea slowly leave, his eyes flashing with a little coldness.
¡°Grandma, since it seems like I¡¯m going to kill us all here, you have to give me a taste of my revenge, otherwise you¡¯ll think I¡¯m so easy to bully.¡±
According to Zhao Hongyu¡¯s original idea, Zhao Hongyu wanted the fleet to bombard all the way and destroy all the coastal cities and villages.
However, considering that without himself in the fleet, the fleet's artillery shells would not be able to replenish ammunition supplies, so he gave up the idea.
However, just because you won¡¯t do it now doesn¡¯t mean you won¡¯t do it in the future.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Zhao Hongyu had a gloomy face and suppressed this idea in his heart.
As long as he is given an opportunity, he will definitely put this idea into practice.
By then, the shogunate will be unable to eat and walk away.
The departure of the fleet cast a layer of gloom in the hearts of Liu Dashen and Mrs. Wang.
Because the fleet is the only escape route for them.
If they are defeated by the Japanese and return to the sea by boat immediately, they can retreat calmly.
But if even the fleet is destroyed, they will really have to answer here.
Wang Fuzi and Liu Dashen had not seen the combat effectiveness of Zhao Hongyu's fleet, so when they knew that the shogunate had dispatched a fleet of more than 120 warships, their hearts suddenly lifted. got up.
There were heavy looks on their faces, and one could easily see their worry.
Zhao Hongyu didn¡¯t bother to explain to them.
After all, saying too much about some things can have the opposite effect.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu asked the Iga ninjas to keep an eye on the news from Tajima and Danbo every day.
After receiving the order from the shogunate, the daimyo of Danha and Tajima immediately began to organize soldiers and began to assemble at Ono Castle in west Osaka.
After the two daimyo joined forces, their military strength reached 6,000 Ashigaru men, 1,600 elite banner warriors, and 2,000 cavalry, for a total of 9,600 men.
For the Japanese country, this can be considered a very powerful military force.
You must know that conventional warfare here in Japan is basically controlled to less than 5,000 people.
Therefore, any battle involving more than five thousand soldiers is called a war and can be recorded in the annals of history.
This is different from the Ming Dynasty in China.
You know, over there in the Ming Dynasty, there were basically battles involving more than 100,000 people.
"Compared with the fighting in the Ming Dynasty, the battles in the Japanese country are nothing more than small shrimps.
But one thing I have to admit is that although the scale of the battle on the Japanese side is small, their soldiers are very elite and brave.
If this were not the case, the Japanese pirates would not have posed such a big threat to the coastal generation of the Ming Dynasty.
At the same time, it was precisely because of this that the Japanese began to become proud
It¡¯s a pity that they don¡¯t know what kind of enemy they are facing now.
Zhao Hongyu and the others are completely beyond the comprehension of people of this era.
And Zhao Hongyu will definitely surprise the Japanese and teach them a lesson.
It has been two days since the fleet left. During these two days, the atmosphere in the camp has always been very depressing.
Because everyone knows that they now not only have to face a land crusade of 10,000 people from Tajima and Shanbo, but also face an attack from the Japanese navy at the southern estuary.
In this situation where water and land are advancing simultaneously, if one of them is not good, Zhao Hongyu will be destroyed.
Tokugawa Kayo and Iga ten people have already taken refuge in Zhao Hongyu. Although they know that the situation is very critical, they still stick to their duties and prepare to share the joys and sorrows with Zhao Hongyu.
Their performance actually made Zhao Hongyu look at them.
Liu Dashen and Mrs. Wang gritted their teeth and prepared to follow Zhao Hongyu and the Japanese to death. After all, Zhao Hongyu rescued them from the hands of the Dutch, and he could be regarded as a life-saving person for them.
Although Zhao Hongyu seems to be in crisis now, what they like as heroes is to keep their grudges clear. They will not abandon Zhao Hongyu and run away at this time.
This view is the consensus of all pirates.
Zhao Hongyu was a little touched by the attitude of the Tokugawa people and the pirates.
However, there are also other discords among these emotions.
This disharmony comes from those famous merchants and the captive soldiers in Osaka (To be continued.
