In the waters of Kyushu in winter, the wind and waves are still very strong.
The cold and humid sea breeze keeps blowing, making people living along the coast always feel disgusted with this biting cold.
However, in front of the power of nature, human beings are very small.
In addition to being obedient, all I can do is add two more clothes.
At this time, on the sea outside Miyazaki Castle Kawaguchi Town, a fleet of dozens of warships appeared, sailing towards this side in a mighty manner.
When the soldiers stationed in Kawaguchi Town discovered this situation, they quickly rang the small bell located in the center of Kawaguchi Town.
clang clang clang clang!
For a time, the residents of Kawaguchi Town dragged their families and wanted to flee. They knew that the war was coming.
If you stay, you will die.
The soldiers evacuated the people of Kawaguchi Town, and then left Kawaguchi Town and rushed to Miyazaki Castle.
In just half an hour, Kawaguchi Town became deserted.
The main reason why the soldiers here dispersed the people here is that the lord of Miyazaki Castle, Fujita Koji, has issued a notice telling everyone in the territory that once a huge fleet is discovered from the outer sea, they will evacuate the people immediately and then Report to Miyazaki Castle.
Therefore, the soldiers of Kawaguchi Town followed this order very well.
The main reason why Fujita issued this order was to launch a scorched-earth response to the arrival of Zhao Hongyu and others.
According to the thinking of Fujita High School and other Kyushu daimyo, Zhao Hongyu and others came to their country from a very far away place, so it is impossible for them to obtain supplies from the mainland.
Therefore, as long as the scorched earth strategy is implemented in Kyushu, the enemy can be trapped in a situation where food and wages cannot be replenished. In this way, the war will give the Kyushu people an advantage.
At the same time, according to some intelligence analysis, the target of these enemies from afar is Miyazaki Castle.
Therefore, Fujita, a sophomore in high school, was ready early in the morning.
As long as Zhao Hongyu and the others do not land in the Miyazaki area, it will be fine. But if they land in the Miyazaki area, then they will definitely leave nothing for Zhao Hongyu.
The uninhabited areas can definitely cause trouble for the enemy.
Strictly speaking, this strategy is actually very good and very reliable.
However, no one can imagine that even if you do this, it will be of no use to the enemy they will face this time.
Because one of these enemies possesses a heaven-defying cheat.
As long as this plug-in exists, it will be impossible to implement things like scorched earth warfare perfectly.
For these things, even if the Kyushu people want to break their heads, they will not think of it.
Because this thing is too fantasy.
But no matter what, when Zhao Hongyu led the fleet towards Kawaguchi Town, the Kyushu people had already begun to take action.
About three hours later, Zhao Hongyu led the fleet to slowly sail into the dock berth of Kawaguchi Town and docked.
When the flagship was stable, Zhao Hongyu came to the deck and looked over with a frown.
Wherever he looked, there was silence, and he saw no one at all.
Kawaguchi Town is not big, with a permanent population of only one to two thousand people.
This very quiet and eerie town made Zhao Hongyu feel a little uncomfortable.
"This place is a bit strange and too quiet. When our fleet arrived, the other party's guide ship did not appear. Even when we docked, we did not see anyone coming and going. Is this an uninhabited town?"
Zhao Hongyu said something to everyone on the left and right in a somewhat unpleasant tone.
On both sides of Zhao Hongyu, Mrs. Wang, Liu Dashen, Tokugawa Kayo and others were following.
After listening to Zhao Hongyu's words, everyone noticed the slightest hint of evil in His Highness's tone.
Hattori Onizou answered at this time and said: "General Takegawa, the Tokugawa ninjas and Iga Hattori ninjas requested to land for investigation!"
Nowadays, this small town has a strange and strange atmosphere.
Zhao Hongyu couldn¡¯t figure out what was going on, so he couldn¡¯t rashly order the army to land ashore and enter this strange town.
¡°If the enemy sets a trap here, wouldn¡¯t he suffer a big loss?
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it is notDoes this happen often?
Is it possible that the Japanese are using some strategy?
Zhao Hongyu suddenly had such an idea.
"Actually, Zhao Hongyu is a little over-thought in thinking this way. Fujita, a sophomore in high school, is not that smart yet, and would not think of any traps to use to deal with Zhao Hongyu and the others.
This town simply dispersed the people.
In other words, this is a truly empty town, and there are no traps inside.
However, Zhao Hongyu, who was cautious in everything, was cautious and did not order the entire army to land.
"Hattori Onizou, you Hattori ninjas go check it out first. You must be careful and don't make any omissions."
Zhao Hongyu nodded and agreed to Hattori Kizo¡¯s request.
Afterwards, Hattori Kizo took out a small bamboo whistle from his arms, put it to his mouth and started blowing.
As the whistle made a "àÓàÓ" sound, some ninjas wearing black clothes and covering their faces jumped off the battleship with very agile skills, and then disappeared into the strange city after a few ups and downs.
"Send three troops ashore to control the intersections of the five nearby blocks and set up warning posts." Zhao Hongyu continued to order.
As Zhao Hongyu¡¯s order was conveyed, a warship parked at the berth lowered its landing deck, and then three teams of Army genetic soldiers quickly stepped off the warship and rushed to the buildings and streets near the pier.
Time passed by little by little, and another half hour passed in the blink of an eye.
All the investigating Iga ninjas came to the flagship and reported to Hattori Kizo what they had discovered.
The three teams of army soldiers also controlled all the buildings near the dock, as well as commanding heights and street intersections.
At the same time, they also checked inside the building to see if it was a trap set by the Japanese or if it was doused with kerosene or something.
"Your Highness, there is no one left in Kawaguchi Town. However, judging from the findings and guesses of the genin, it seems that people here left in a hurry, about two hours ago."
After listening to Hattori Onizou¡¯s report, Zhao Hongyu frowned even more.
"Two hours is one hour. If calculated as two hours, it would be four hours ago.
And at this time, he had just entered the Miyazaki waters, and his fleet was sailing here.
After calculating the time, Zhao Hongyu calculated that he had just entered this area four hours ago.
Could it be that the people of Kawaguchi Town left just after discovering us?
Although we are outsiders, there is something wrong with what they did before the war officially started.
"Kizo, let the ninjas continue to investigate the surrounding area, and at the same time send an elite force to Miyazaki Castle to find out the news. I need to know in the shortest possible time why everyone here will all Run away." Zhao Hongyu issued new arrangements to Hattori Kizo and his Iga ninjas.
"oh!"
Hattori Kizo accepted this order, and then turned around to make arrangements for the Iga ninjas who were still kneeling there.
A lot of possibilities flashed through Zhao Hongyu's mind.
In the end, he felt that the people of Kawaguchi Town running away like this must have something to do with these daimyo from Kyushu.
Maybe, the great names of Kyushu have already made their choice regarding their right to come to take over Kyushu.
It¡¯s just that it¡¯s really hard to draw a conclusion before certain things are finalized.
Therefore, he needs to wait until Hattori Kizo asks the Iga ninjas to go to the Miyazaki area to find out the exact information before he can plan his next move.
¡° Zhao Hongyu really doesn¡¯t want to use force to deal with people like Jiuzhou unless he has to use force.
¡°But if it really gets to that point, Zhao Hongyu won¡¯t be afraid.
"All the army landed. After landing, the imperial guards controlled every building in the town, and the rest of the army set up military camps and checkpoints outside the town."
Although Hattori Kizo asked his men to go to Miyazaki to find out the news, Zhao Hongyu can't always stay on the ship.
And if you do this, wouldn¡¯t it appear that you are a little afraid of the unknown, which will weaken your morale?
This year, only the killing was killed, but it was not scared to death.
AndAfter some investigation, there really are no traps in the town, so there is nothing to worry about.
Under Zhao Hongyu¡¯s order, more than 9,200 army troops landed.
Among them, 500 imperial guards under Zhao Hongyu and 300 European slaves lived with him in the castle town.
The remaining more than 8,000 people went to garrison outside the city and town and established simple camps.
Emma, ??Sarah and their guards all followed Zhao Hongyu.
When they landed, three flagships were left outside the dock berths, and the remaining warships left the port and began patrolling the Miyazaki sea.
After all, we have to guard against Kyushu people attacking us from the sea.
Originally, the army under Zhao Hongyu only had more than 4,000 people.
However, because the shogunate gave a gold war compensation of 100,000 taels, Zhao Hongyu suddenly had a lot more funds on hand.
With these funds, Zhao Hongyu secretly cultivated a group of Chinese genetic warriors during the voyage. This batch of genetic warriors numbered 4,500.
Therefore, the army strength that Zhao Hongyu now has on hand has exceeded the 9,000-man mark in one fell swoop.
Although the strength of nine thousand men is not a lot, in Zhao Hongyu's opinion, the people he has on hand are completely enough to deal with the war in Kyushu. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
