Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    There are a total of 1,300 defenders in Tianyu City, but they have to face more than 101,000 Song Empire Army troops, which can be said to be at an absolute disadvantage in terms of military strength.

    Although the Japanese in Tianyu City, like Zhao Hongyu, hope to rely on thick city walls to attack sudden enemies, they do not have as sharp weapons as Zhao Hongyu.

    There is a large green grassland around Tianyu City.

    Originally, this was used as a place for the general to go horse racing or hang out.

    Now, on the green grassland under Tianyu City, more than 10,000 troops have appeared densely.

    These troops are not under the command of any daimyo of Japan. They come from the other side of the ocean.

    And, it will leave a heavy mark in the history of the Japanese people.

    "Mobilize the soldiers and guard Tianyu City for me. Send people to mobilize the troops immediately, mobilize the troops!"

    Although Hiroshi Ishida was so frightened that he peed his pants, at this time his mind still remained clear-headed and knew what to do now.

    The young emperor at his feet, holding his calf, was sobbing with fear on his face at this time.

    No wonder the Imperial family existed as puppets before the Meiji Restoration. This shows that they are actually very cowardly at heart.

    Of course, even after the Meiji Restoration, the Imperial family was still a puppet.

    They can never get rid of this.

    "Ishida-kun, who are our enemies and why do they want to attack Edo?"

    The young emperor raised his head with tears in his eyes, holding Ishida Hiroshi's calf and looking at him.

    I went, and there was a sense of weakness.

    He is a man, how could he feel like this?

    The next moment, Ishida Hiroshi used his reaction to well explain his relationship with the young emperor.

    I saw Hiroshi Ishida bending down, stretching out his arms to hug the sobbing Emperor, and then had a righteous and awe-inspiring expression on his face.

    "Don't worry, we will definitely defeat these guys who appear suddenly. Although we don't know who they are, the losers are destined to be the other side, so you don't have to worry if you are a little careful."

    My little baby?

    my mom!

    Could it be that the relationship between the two of them is Oops.

    After hearing these manly words from Hiroshi Ishida, the shivering emperor finally felt a little better.

    However, the shouts of death outside and the panicked attendants running back and forth still couldn't make His Royal Highness the Emperor truly breathe a sigh of relief.

    "Sir, the enemy has surrounded us and is attacking the city."

    At this time, a bannerman with a small flag on his back ran in, then knelt on the ground with one knee and bowed his head and quickly reported the current situation.

    "Have you ever sent someone to break out of the enemy's siege?" Hiroshi Ishida asked, trying hard to maintain his dignity.

    ¡°Thirteen waves of troops were sent forward and backward, but they were all killed by the opponent below the city walls.¡±

    Hatamoto¡¯s answer made Ishida Hiroshi feel like the world was spinning.

    Tianyu City is surrounded, and the news cannot be conveyed in the city. This is bad news.

    Although the people of Edo will flee Edo and spread the news here, it will take at least a few days for them to spread the news.

    ?????????????????????? And it will take a few more days until those Damingmen mobilize their troops to come to the rescue.

    Counting the time spent going back and forth like this, it would be very difficult for him to withstand the enemy's attack for so many days.

    "Damn it, where did these enemies come from?"

    Ishida Hiroshi almost cried. He really couldn't figure out who he had offended, and he actually let the other party attack Edo and directly besiege him.

    Is it another famous name?

    Ishida Hiroshi thinks this is unlikely.

    Since it¡¯s not those big names, who could it be?

    He really couldn't understand.

    Just when Ishida Hiroshi was having a headache, Raiko and her father Takeuchi Jin were leading a group of maids, surrounded by some warriors, into the main lower level of Tianyu City.

    Because of the enemy¡¯s siege, the ¡®harem¡¯ located outside Tianyu City is no longer safe.

    At that time, Lailaizi was having sex with his father, when he suddenly heard a huge noise in the distance.

    Originally, she and Takeuchi Jin didn¡¯t treat each other as the same thing at all, and they were at the peak of their powers, so?I don¡¯t care anymore.

    But the problem was that those loud sounds kept coming, making it impossible for her and Takeuchi Jin to devote themselves wholeheartedly to that matter, which made both of them very unhappy.

    Therefore, we can only stop temporarily and let people inquire about the situation.

    When Lailaizi sent people to inquire about the situation, the Army of the Song Empire had already logged in and began to line up to surround Tianyu City.

    After getting the news, the maid sent by Lailaizi came back immediately and told Lailaizi the news.

    Lailaizi was also shocked at that time.

    In the end, she decided to take people into Tianyu City and be with General Ishida Hiroshi.

    After all, the walls of Tianyu City are tall and very thick.

    Thinking about it, it can definitely withstand the enemy's attack.

    By then, when reinforcements arrive, the security here in Tianyu City will naturally be resolved.

    At the same time, she can also leave a good impression on Ishida Hiroshi and other family elders.

    If she leaves at this time, it will not be good.

    Takeuchi Jin tried to persuade his daughter to go with him, but Rairako refused.

    In the end, Takeuchi Jin had no choice but to obey his daughter's arrangement.

    This unfaithful father and daughter entered the main city of Tianyu City.

    "I guess it's those foreigners who are here."

    Listening to the sound of shelling outside Tianyu City, Takeuchi Jin whispered to Lailaizi with a pale face.

    "What, those foreigners? Didn't I send a fleet to destroy them?"

    Lailaiko¡¯s eyes widened in disbelief. She really couldn¡¯t believe what her father said.

    Yes, the general has dispatched a crusade, and the navy has also been deployed at sea.

    Those foreigners don¡¯t have many troops, so dealing with them is a piece of cake.

    However, now the other party actually appeared in Edo, and not only started bombarding Edo, but also sent the army to attack Tianyu City, the general's residence.

    Could it be that the Navy was destroyed?

    Now it seems that there is only one explanation.

    If this were not the case, it would be impossible for the enemy to come to the Edo waters so smoothly and start bombarding Edo.

    What a waste!

    Needless to say, the person Lailaizi cursed in a low voice was the Japanese navy commander who went to annihilate Zhao Hongyu and others with orders and expectations.

    "It's a pity that now he can't hear whatever Lailaizi says, because that unlucky guy has been buried in the sea with many Japanese sailors.

    You must know that the naval force led by that guy is the elite warship of the Japanese.

    The entire Japanese nation was gathered together, but there were only a hundred or so ships.

    This kind of armored ship has always been a warship that Japan is proud of, but it was unexpectedly destroyed by Zhao Hongyu's fleet in one battle.

    In other words, the Japanese have no warships on hand at all.

    Although there are also battleships, the rest are small and medium-sized ships. The combat effectiveness of such ships is so low that it makes people cry.

    So, it can be said that the Japanese no longer have the military power to compete with Zhao Hongyu's fleet at sea, and the Japanese coastline can be said to be completely undefended for Zhao Hongyu.

    As long as Zhao Hongyu is happy, he can come and leave whenever he wants.

    Falling into such a situation, the Japanese really couldn¡¯t even cry.

    When Raiko and Takeuchi Jin arrived at the attic of Tianyu City, Ishida Hiroshi had already put on a suit of armor at the urging of many old military generals, and led everyone towards the observation tower.

    Rairako and Takeuchi Jin were silent, and she and Takeuchi Jin followed them knowingly.

    When everyone came to the observation deck of the attic and looked outside, they suddenly took a breath of air.

    They discovered that the originally prosperous Edo City was now a scene of flames.

    Streams of black smoke rose into the sky, and flashes of fire flashed from time to time.

    The lively and bustling street market has disappeared, but it has been replaced by ruins.

    At the dock port, dozens of large warships with dense muzzles on their sides were parked, firing cannonballs at Edo City continuously.

    The entire Edo Town outside Tianyu City has turned into a world like a Shura field.

    Below, there are rows of wholeQi's team is the enemy walking towards Tianyu City.

    These enemies are dressed very strangely. They are also carrying a wooden weapon, and the top of the weapon seems to be equipped with a spear.

    Actually, how did Hiroshi Ishida know that that thing was called a flintlock gun, and it had a bright bayonet installed on the gun head.

    Although the Japanese also had iron cannons, there were some differences in appearance.

    In addition, Ishida Hiroshi is very ignorant, so it is not surprising that he did not recognize that the enemy was using an "iron cannon".

    "Stand still!"

    Peng!

    Following the commander¡¯s order, the Imperial Army that had arrived at Tianyu City stopped neatly.

    Such uniform movements, in the eyes of the Japanese in Tianyu City, shocked them beyond measure.

    Artillery ready!

    After the team stopped, there were more than a dozen twelve-pound artillery pieces behind the team, which were pushed up by the artillerymen.

    The walls of Tianyu City are very tall and thick. If ordinary siege tactics are used, they will definitely be effective in a short time.

    Fortunately, there will be artillery in Zhao Hongyu's army.

    So, this problem is easily solved.

    Today we will let the Japanese see what modern siege warfare is.

    "The gunner is in position, loading is complete!"

    put!

    Peng!  Puff!

    A dozen artillery pieces loaded with solid bullets started shooting one after another.

    The target of these artillery pieces is the same, which is the gate of Tianyu City that has been closed in front of the army.

    As long as the city gate is broken by the bombardment, the army can rush into Tianyu City.

    At this time, the other three gates of Tianyu City have been blocked.

    Now, even if Hiroshi Ishida and the distinguished nobles have become the bastards in the jar, they cannot escape.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
