Chapter 527(1/2)
"Sir, the lower-ranking official follows you and learns a lot of principles and lessons. You can go to the Shu area." Zheng Gan once again recommended himself.
Yan Chengjin's face was calm: "In my eyes, you are no different from them."
Suddenly, Zheng Gan's face turned red and his ears were red, and a stinging pain came from his chest, which was obviously hit.
Jiang Wen and the other two dared not speak out. Lord Yan has always been strict in his actions, and they knew that.
Yan Chengjin fell into deep thought and in April, he would give His Majesty a roster.
It means that within one month, the matter in Shu must be investigated.
What happened in Shu that made Min Gui like this? No one knows.
Although it is mentioned in the memorial, we cannot listen to it indirectly. Perhaps there is a big deal, but it is impossible to say it.
"Sir, you can also go there." Jiang Wen bowed slightly and pursed his lips.
"I'm going to test you. How do you check it after going to Shu?"
Zheng Gan was at a loss, and Lord Yan’s test questions were not too simple.
"The officials thoroughly investigate the officials on the list one by one."
"I'm afraid your life is worrying. The Censor has no yamen in Shu. You are alone. How can you investigate?"
Yan Chengjin shook his head in disappointment.
When officials went to the local area for inspection, the court could only send two entourage yamen runners to arrange post stations along the way.
Jiang Wen and the other two looked at each other. When they arrived at the place, shouldn’t they investigate directly?
Yan Chengjin pondered for a moment and looked at Zheng Gan: "You go to the Northwest Great Wall and pass on the orders of my official. Fang Xue goes to Shu, and you supervise the Great Wall."
The Great Wall of Alaxy was built, and the northwest defense line of the Ming Dynasty was like a copper wall.
The refugees are accustomed to building the Great Wall for food, so they will not cause chaos again.
It happened to be transferred Fang Xue to Shu, and this arrangement was made.
Zheng Gan couldn't imagine that he could make a substitution like this, so he quickly bowed: "The emperor follows the order."
...
Shangzeng Island, the military camp at the foot of Pengshan.
The flags swayed in the sea breeze, corpses were buried for a few miles, and the gravel that was yellow in the mud was dyed red, and the smell of disgusting blood was everywhere.
The battle continues.
Island countries continued to fight, and then traded iron tools with surrounding subordinate countries through silver mines.
The country of Satsuma borders the island country and has to be equipped with troops.
In contrast, Ryukyu is an isolated island and has no chance to trade with neighboring countries. In addition, silver mines are barren, making it extremely difficult to trade iron tools on a large scale.
Okubo's army gained the upper hand with the advantages of armor and weapons.
Seeing that there was a tendency to retreat, the deputy general came to persuade: "Mr. Wang, should you retreat?"
"No, although there is a defeat, it may not be impossible to win."
The deputy general was named Liu Jin, who was appointed by Dong Wen by Wang Shouren.
He is brave and good at fighting, and is outstanding among the many generals in Ryukyu.
"Mr. Wang, if you continue to fight like this, you will be killed."
Looking at the soldiers of Ryukyu and falling down one after another, Wang Shouren was unmoved: "Without the order of my official, you are not allowed to take a step back!"
Liu Jin gritted his teeth and looked around and saw soldiers slaughtered wherever he saw them.
When the two armies fought together, neither firearm nor heavy crossbow could be used.
Dong Wen looked at Wang Shouren and said anxiously: "Mr. Wang?!"
Wang Shouren's face was calm.
"Mr. Dong, I have important matters to you, it is related to the outcome of this battle!"
"Please speak with Lord Wang!"
"The Samo Peninsula is separated from Shangzeng Island by the sea. The Samoans must have come by boat. I want you to burn their ships."
When Dong Wen heard this, she thought it made sense, but some thought something was wrong.
If Okubo wins this battle, they will be wiped out. What else do you have to do with a ship?
"Sir, why not retreat, right?"
Wang Shouren insisted: "The time is not long, go quickly."
If you really retreat, you will be given the opportunity to regain your strength and you will not be able to win.
The difference between the two armies lies in the half-day rations.
The soldiers of Satsuma Kingdom got up in the middle of the night to fight. At this time, most of the day had passed, and they were already empty and exhausted.
Although Ryukyu is not well equipped, he still has strength. The soldiers of Ryukyu are not well prepared, but they are not much worse.
Giving Okubo the opportunity to rest and reorganize the army and deploy troops will not only make the battle more difficult, but will also make the soldiers who died before they die in vain.
Dong Wen panickedly led two hundred soldiers to the north coast.
At this time, Okubo waved his Japanese sword and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
After fighting for a night, my stomach was already empty, but the soldiers of Ryukyu were biting them tightly, and even if they showed signs of decline, they would not withdraw their troops.
Satsuma's soldiers' hands trembled while holding weapons, and their stomachs became hot.
The cold sweat that emerged flowed down the bridge of their noses, and they felt heavy eyes, as if they would faint at any time.
The soldiers of Ryukyu were exhausted, but they were much stronger than the soldiers of Satsuma.
At this moment, I felt a little hungry.
Wang Shouren glanced over with a sharp look, noticed the change in the situation, and shouted: "From now on, kill one enemy's head and give two taels of silver!"
Killing the red-eyed soldiers was like a jackal who heard the call of the leader, and his momentum changed completely and he cut at the enemy's head regardless of his life.
The situation on the battlefield has obviously undergone earth-shaking changes.
The originally weak Ryukyu soldiers were like chicken blood.
Okubo slashed his sword and cut a Ryukyu soldier's chest.
He squatted down and found that the food that had not been eaten was exposed.
Suddenly I was stunned, everything started with the fire on Pengshan.
"Retreat!"
The best way is to withdraw troops and repair them at this time.
The soldiers of Satsuma Kingdom were as if they were amnesty, threw away their armor and fled to the coast.
Okubo didn't like fighting, so he rode his horse and ran towards the north coast.
Wang Shouren naturally couldn't let him succeed and ordered his soldiers: "Chasing for it quickly!"
With two taels of silver as a reward, the soldiers were all in high spirits and were still unsatisfied, just like hunters watching their prey escape.
More than 10,000 people were chasing Shangzeng Island. The soldiers behind were killed, and the soldiers running in front successfully arrived at the coast.
Okubo was stunned and looked at the four three-masted ships and dozens of small boats on the sea, burning wildly.
despair!
Despair spreading from the deepest part of his heart actually felt like he fell into a trap.
Every step is being calculated!
The soldiers threw away their armor and ran to the coast to think they could escape. When they saw the burning fire, they were heartbroken.
Although there were more than a thousand more soldiers in Ryukyu than them.
But before they came, they prepared firearms and heavy crossbows, and their troops were well prepared.
I never expected that I would die here.
"Subsequent! I'll be reduced!"
Okubo threw away his weapon, took off his armor, and threw it aside.
The soldiers were defeated like a mountain, and the soldiers followed suit.
Wang Shouren rode on the horse and shook his head: "Shot the arrows and kill them all!"
What he is talking about is the study of mind. These people do not surrender sincerely, but are forced to compromise and find opportunities after being forced to find a situation.
On this island, if you make a little mistake, you will lose everything.
He could not use the lives of thousands of people in Ryukyu to bet that Okubo would do good, so he could only kill all of them.
The sky full of rain of arrows and heavy crossbows shot out. The soldiers of Satsuma Kingdom wanted to pick up the armor, but found that it was too late.
To be continued...
