Chapter 124: Eastern Conquest of Japan! Zhu Han unexpectedly kills the Emperor!(2/4)
After Emperor Gomurakami heard these words, his expression suddenly changed.
Emperor Gomurakami's face suddenly darkened, and he asked coldly: "Are you sure they have five thousand?"
"Yes, sir, I am sure there are five thousand of them." The Japanese warrior said quickly.
The Japanese people did not believe that the Korean people had the courage to attack the Japanese country, unless those Korean people took the wrong medicine.
After hearing that the invading Koryo pirates numbered only 5,000, Emperor Gomurakami wanted to see with his own eyes the combat effectiveness of the Iwami clan's troops.
Emperor Gomurakami said to Onishi Morikiyo: "Onishi-kun, since there are Koryo pirates attacking, your sword-fighting team and cavalry team must be sent out to meet the enemy and destroy these Koryo pirates!"
"Yes, His Majesty the Emperor!"
Onishi Morikiyo heard what Emperor Gomurakami said and said quickly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will never lose!"
"Yes." Emperor Gomurakami nodded.
At this time, Onishi Morikiyo next to him understood Emperor Gomurakami's intention!
He also intentionally wanted to show the powerful military strength of Iwami Domain in front of the emperor.

"Iwami Battou Team, prepare to kill the enemy!"
"Iwami Cavalry, prepare to kill the enemy!"
Following an order, a mighty three thousand army gathered at the foot of Ishimi Castle.
Onishi Morikiyo personally led three thousand sword and cavalry troops and rushed to the northwest coast. Emperor Gomurakami, escorted by hundreds of personal guards, also followed Iwami clan to watch the battle.
As for the danger, what danger can there be in fighting a group of Koreans who don't know the heights of the sky? In the history of more than a thousand years of fighting, there has been almost no time when the Koreans were able to defeat the Japanese.
Emperor Gomurakami sat on the carriage and saw that Onishi Morikiyo had already set off first, so he also left with Onishi Morikiyo and rushed to the beach.
The coastline of the Japanese country is very long, and the sword-drawing and cavalry teams of Onishi Shengqing are running in front.
"Sir, there is the seaside ahead, and the Korean pirates are there."
Onishi Morikiyo saw some vague flags appearing in front of him, and there were many ships moving on the sea.
However, it does not look like a Korean ship from a distance.
Onishi Shengqing couldn't help but have doubts in his heart.
When the Japanese warriors of the Ishimi clan led by Onishi Moriki approached, Zhu Han led the 5,000 red scarf army and had already landed on the seaside.
Although the Red Turban Army led by Zhu Han only had 5,000 men, half of whom were Goryeo Eight Banners soldiers, they carried the latest artillery.
Twenty large and small artillery pieces are enough to handle a battle involving ten thousand people.
"Deputy Commander, a group of Japanese soldiers and horses are coming from the front, about five thousand!" Lan Yu, who was in charge of the alert, came to report.
"The Japanese came very quickly! The Japanese actually sent so many troops to encircle and suppress us. They really took great pains." Zhu Han said with a sneer.
"Hahaha... Okay, then let's teach these Japanese dogs a lesson!" Zhu Han laughed wildly.
Soon, the Red Scarf Army and the Japanese soldiers of the Iwami Domain formed a formation and faced off at the seaside.
At this time, Onishi Shengqing and others discovered that the soldiers and horses in front of them were all the Red Turban Army from the Central Plains!
The Japanese people knew about the civil strife in the Yuan Dynasty.
But they could never imagine why the Red Scarf Army came across the sea to attack them.
However, both sides were already preparing to fight and did not bother to ask why.
"Array, solid as a rock!"
Onishi Shengqing shook a fan and directed the Ishimi clan's soldiers and horses to form an array.
Seeing that the number of Red Turban troops on the opposite side was about the same, they decided to use the most secure defensive formation to face the enemy.
The array of Japanese pirates was very dense, and they looked quite strong.
Zhu Han looked at the Japanese pirate soldiers and horses opposite and smiled slightly.
"Brothers, prepare for the artillery attack. Today we are going to let the Japanese pirates try what artillery is!"
Immediately, Zhu Han gave an order, and the Red Scarf Army set up their cannons and aimed at the Japanese pirates.
"fire!"
Zhu Han roared, and twenty artillery pieces suddenly fired at once, and the shells flew forward with the sound of howling wind.
Rumble...
The cannonball hit the Iwami clan's array, instantly sending up a cloud of dust!
The densely packed Japanese soldiers fell to pieces.
"Ah~~~"
There were screams, and countless Japanese pirates were torn into pieces by cannonballs. The bloody scene was very beautiful.
One cannonball directly destroyed about a column of Japanese pirate soldiers and horses.
However, the Japanese pirate array did not waver at all, and many Japanese pirate soldiers still stood there with weapons in hand.
There were only injured Japanese soldiers on the ground, each holding their stumps and broken arms and wailing in pain.
When Zhu Han saw this, he felt incredible.
"The Japanese pirates are capable of fighting! They were bombarded by a round of artillery, but they didn't waver at all!"
"This is a powerful army. It seems that I have to deal with it carefully!"
Zhu Han put away his original contempt and his expression became serious.
"Ready to reload, fire freely!"
Zhu Han gave the order.
However, just as the gunners of the Red Turban Army were busy loading the artillery, the Japanese soldiers of the Iwami Domain on the opposite side suddenly burst into screams.
ah!!
Immediately afterwards, the array of Japanese soldiers that Zhu Han thought was a strong opponent suddenly collapsed in an instant.
The Japanese soldiers were like a flock of panicked sheep, fleeing in all directions in the wilderness. There was no sign of panic as they had just received the artillery fire.
Zhu Han and others were immediately dumbfounded.
"Damn it, what's going on?"
"Wasn't it just a powerful army that was brave and fearless of death?"
Ten thousand question marks surged in Zhu Han's heart.
The muscles on Lan Yu's face next to her twitched, and she finally couldn't help but said: "Deputy Commander, I think they were not fearless just now, but they were probably scared to death."
When Zhu Han heard this, he was immediately stunned.
Thinking about it again, it seems to be the same.
However, the Japanese soldiers are currently in chaos, and there is no need for a second round of bombardment.
"Lanyu, lead the cavalry and continue to charge me!"
Zhu Han immediately gave the order. The Japanese soldiers had already thrown themselves into disarray, and all that was left was to chop melons and vegetables.
Lan Yu immediately led two hundred cavalry to continue the pursuit.
The Japanese soldiers also had cavalry, but their speed and skills were too poor to stop the mad pursuit of Lan Yu and other cavalry.
Soon, the Japanese cavalry were slaughtered.
Zhu Han led his army to pursue the Japanese soldiers and killed them until they lost their armor.
At this time, a group of Japanese soldiers on the hillside in the distance caught Zhu Han's attention.
"There is a big Japanese fish there, kill it for me!"
Zhu Han pointed with his hand and led an elite force straight towards the hillside.
No one would have thought that this group of Japanese pirate soldiers on the hillside were the charioteers of the Japanese Emperor Gomurakami.
Emperor Gomurakami originally planned to watch the battle, so he naturally chose a hillside with the best view.
However, I never expected that what was originally thought to be a massacre of the Koreans would turn out to be a disastrous defeat.
Those pirate soldiers and horses holding red flags only fired a round of large cannons, causing heavy casualties to Iwami clan's sword-fighting team.
In the ensuing battle, the prestigious Iwami Cavalry was completely killed by these "Red Flag Soldiers" in one round.
Emperor Gomurakami and the others didn't even react to escape, and a huge defeat was about to happen.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! At this time, Emperor Gomurakami and several other Japanese ministers were on the hillside, looking ahead blankly.
They had absolutely no idea that these pirates of unknown origin had such powerful weapons!
One round of artillery fire actually wiped out an entire Japanese army.
"No wonder they dare to take the initiative to launch a sneak attack. It turns out that they have been prepared! It seems that we underestimated them!"
"Your Majesty, no matter what, we must retreat immediately, otherwise, we will all die here!"
"Let's go, let's retreat quickly!"
"Quick, retreat quickly!"
"Hurry up!"
However, Emperor Gomurakami and the others were already being targeted by Zhu Han, so there was no way they could escape.
What's more, the route of retreat has been blocked by the defeated troops of Ishimi Fan all over the mountains and plains.
Emperor Gomurakami couldn't run fast even if he wanted to.
"Japanese pirates, where are you running?"
Zhu Han led Chen Baodao, Lan Yu and others to encircle the group of Japanese pirates on the hillside.
