【Today's second update is delivered!】

Sado Island’s defense bullies the Japanese army does not have enough heavy artillery. Even if there are heavy artillery, it cannot be transported to the front line of Sado Island. As long as the Japanese army does not have heavy artillery, Li Yang’s artillery battalion can fully control the opponent. Flying thunder cannons and other weapons can also be used unscrupulously, causing maximum damage to the enemy.

However, once the Japanese and the Dutch colluded with each other, the Dutch fleet arrived at the port of Aikawa Castle, and the cannons of Dutch warships could easily level Aikawa Castle. Judging from the range and power of the cannons, Li Yang's artillery battalion was obviously not as good as the large Dutch warships. As for thunder cannons, there was no chance to fire them.

Simply put, with the help of the Dutch fleet, it is entirely possible for the Japanese army to regain Sado Island. Although emotionally, the Marines are unwilling to admit this. However, rationally, they must accept this painful reality. Once the Dutch intervenes, the current forces of the Tiger Army on Sado Island will definitely not be able to defend it.

"Don't be nervous, the situation is not that bad."

Zhang Zhun said slowly with his tone as calm as possible.

In fact, he knew that Fang He would definitely be nervous. This news made him, the time traveler, feel a little nervous, let alone Fang He? The reason why he didn't call Liu Dong here was because Liu Dong's psychological endurance was worse than Fang He. If Liu Dong heard the news, he would be afraid that the cold sweat on his forehead would be quietly coming down.

"I have ordered the news. On the top of Sado Island, only you and me, and two other staff officers know. No one else knows it."

Zhang Zhun said slowly with a cold expression.

Since learning that the Dutch fleet arrived at Hiroshima, Zhang Zhun decided to strictly ** the news that no one below knew. Sado Island is indeed too far from the Ming Dynasty. In such a far place, people's psychology is easy to cause bad changes. It is impossible to infer it by common sense.

If the Marines below learned that the Dutch fleet would come to attack Sado Island, there would definitely be a big problem. The psychological pressure backlog to a certain extent would be burst. At that time, even if Zhang Zhun came forward, he might not be able to suppress it. Such a scene was something that Zhang Zhun didn't want to see.

"This is the best."

Fang He said with some relief.

The name of a person, the shadow of a tree, and the reputation of the Dutch on the sea were not established overnight. This is a sea overlord who even Zheng Zhilong had to take a detour when he met. They came to intervene in the Japanese war situation, and the future of Sado Island was probably a little dim.

"Since the Dutch are here, we have to hurry up on our affairs."

Zhang Zhun pondered for a moment, suddenly grew up and said with a stern voice.

“My sir means…”

Fang He said with some confusion.

"You go back to Pi Island immediately and prepare to build the Second Battalion and Third Battalion of the Marine Corps. The current Marine Corps is renamed the First Battalion, with Liu Dong as the commander. Zhu Chengtai and Lu Liangyu will go back to Pi Island with you. They serve as the commander of the Second Battalion and the Third Battalion respectively. The organization of each battalion is the same as that of the First Battalion."

Zhang Zhun waved his right hand and said decisively.

Originally, he had plans to expand the Marine Corps and strengthen the strength of the Marine Corps, but for some reason, the plan had not been implemented. The original plan was to start the formation of the Second Marine Corps Battalion in May. However, now that the military situation is urgent, he must make up his mind.

Since the Dutch intervened in the Japanese battlefield, it means that from now on, the Hu Ben Army and the Dutch will directly enter a state of war. Neither the Tatars before, nor the current Zheng Zhilong and the Japanese, they have brought too much pressure to Zhang Zhun. However, the confrontation with the Dutch did make Zhang Zhun feel breathless.

If Zhang Zhun was not a time traveler, he would not know that the Dutch were powerful, and he might not have such great pressure. However, he was a time traveler and had a lot of knowledge that did not belong to this world. He knew very well that the Dutch at that time was the overlord of the sea. They defeated Portugal, defeated Spain, and controlled more than 50% of the world's oceans. Half of the ships in the world were flying the Dutch flag.

In real history, the decline of the Dutch should have started after 1650 AD. At present, it was still in 1638 AD, and there were more than ten years before the decline of the Dutch. In other words, the current Dutch was at its peak. Can Zhang Zhun be without pressure to confront the Dutch navy at its peak?

Fortunately, the Dutch's focus was not East Asia, otherwise, Zhang Zhun had almost no chance to compete with the other party. As long as thousands of Dutch warships came over, Zhang Zhun would not even be able to defend Shandong, let alone islands such as Jeju Island and Sado Island. However, even so, it would be difficult for Zhang Zhun to defeat the Dutch.

It must be admitted that the Dutch navy is indeed quite strong. In the short term, the Tiger Ben Navy has no chance of catching up with the Dutch. However, the Dutch army is relatively loose - have you heard of the Dutch army? Since the navy cannot defeat the Dutch in the short term, Zhang Zhun is ready to start with the Marine Corps.

In addition to the extremely powerful navy, the competition with the Dutch also requires an extremely powerful Marine Corps. Because, in addition to the decisive battle at sea, there are also a large number of island landings. This is exactly the case with the Dutch. If you cannot defeat your opponent in the ocean, you will make up for it by fighting on land.

The basic principle of war is to find the opponent's weaknesses and start decisively. In short, it is to surprise him and attack him inadvertently. Zhang Zhun will never forget this. Fortunately, the Hu Ben Army still has time.

Zhang Zhun estimated that the Dutch vanguard fleet that arrived in Hiroshima, Japan should be the Dutch vanguard fleet, and its strength would not be particularly strong. Those giants with displacement of more than 1,500 tons should not appear in the Japanese waters. The Dutch's main fleet should still be in the South Ocean. The South Ocean is so far from Japan, and even if the Dutch's main fleet really arrives in Japan, it is impossible for them to stay for too long.

Compared with Japan, the interests of the South China Sea are obviously more important. The maritime strength of Spain and Portugal is also stronger than the current Tiger Army. If the Dutch's main fleet leaves the South China Sea, the Spanish and Portuguese will definitely take advantage of the situation. Of course, it is impossible for the Dutch to lose the South China Sea for Japan.

Having said so much, it is nothing more than to clarify one thing. Even if the Dutch come, its strength will not be particularly strong. Unless the matter is really urgent, the Dutch's main fleet should not appear in Japan. Therefore, as long as the Tiger Army and Navy are careful to deal with the other side, there is still hope of victory.

However, it is probably very difficult for the Hu Ben Navy to deal with such a squadron. No matter how bad the Dutch fleet is, it will have large warships with displacement of more than 1,000 tons. At present, the largest warship of the Hu Ben Navy has a displacement of only about 600 tons. If it really fights, it will be too difficult.

The military situation was urgent, and Fang He, Zhu Chengtai, Lu Liangyu and others left Sado Island the next day. Their accompanying were thirty officers and one hundred veterans selected by them. Because Zhang Zhun had reported the news, the other Marine Corps officers and soldiers did not know why they left so anxiously.

The Japanese's second attack still did not come. Zhang Zhun was in charge of Sado Island, and the officers and soldiers of the Marine Corps and the artillery battalion were all very calm. In order to relax their mood, Zhang Zhun also played football, volleyball, and basketball with him every day. On the surface, it seemed that he was really happy.

Three days later, Wang Shide quietly came to report: "Sir, a Japanese envoy is asking for a visit."

Zhang Zhun said in a little surprised: "Japanese?"

What is the purpose of the Japanese coming at this time?

Wang Shide explained in detail that the Japanese envoy who arrived at Sado Island was named Miyamoto Masaichi. What was strange was that he arrived alone. He had nothing else worth noting except a samurai sword on his body. Although he refused to reveal his true identity and insisted on negotiating with Zhang Jun in person, starting from the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of the silence of

The Ioda Kingdom and the Muro O have never sold their accounts with the Tokugawa shogunate. It can be said that these two daimyos are the most prominent royalists and have always had a close relationship with the royal family. It is estimated that they also knew about the news that Ryota Maeda was defeated on Sado Island. At this time, it is really interesting to see that someone from the Ioda Kingdom came!

As mentioned earlier, the Ming Dynasty has never lacked traitors, and the Japanese have never lacked the party to lead the way. Since the Tang Dynasty sent envoys during the Tang Dynasty, a large number of Japanese people have been using tricks to please the favor of the Central Plains dynasty. Many Japanese people even settled in the Central Plains and never went back. From the perspective of Japan, these people are typical party to lead the way. This mysterious Masaichi Miyamoto is probably also a party to lead the way.

"Let him in."

Zhang Zhun nodded and said calmly.

Soon, Miyamoto Masaichi was brought to Zhang Zhun. This was a very tall Japanese, with a burly figure and thick limbs. For the Han people, this body shape was nothing special. But for the Japanese, it was very rare.

Seeing this Miyamoto Masaichi, Zhang Jun couldn't help but think of Miyamoto Musashi, the most famous swordsman in Japan. It seemed that Miyamoto Musashi was also a person of this era. The two people's names have the word Miyamoto, is it something related?

"I am polite to you, the Governor of the Ming Kingdom."

Miyamoto Masaichi said respectfully.

After meeting Zhang Zhun, all he adopted was the etiquette of the Han people and spoke Chinese in a very good manner. Zhang Zhun highly suspected that this Miyamoto Masaichi was most likely to have stayed in the Central Plains for a while. It was not difficult for a swordsman who liked to wander around.

"Do you have anything to do with Miyamoto Musashi?"

Zhang Zhun asked curiously.

"Miyamoto Musashi is my uncle."

Miyamoto Masaichi lowered his head and answered respectfully.

"What did you say?"

Zhang Zhun stared at the other party suspiciously.

Miyamoto Musashi is Miyamoto's uncle?

So, this Miyamoto Masaichi is also a very good guy? However, the information collected by the Hu Ben Army did not seem to be mentioned. It is estimated that this guy should also be a swordsman with a vague whereabouts and was not captured by the intelligence department of the Hu Ben Army. Thinking about it, the current situation is so complicated. Who dares to come to Sado Island alone, except for the swordsman with great skills and courage, who dares to come?

"Wait, you said, where is your uncle at the moment?"

Zhang Zhun pondered for a moment and asked slowly.

Miyamoto Musashi is still very famous. In Japan, he has a very high reputation. There are quite a few people who respect Miyamoto Musashi. In some things, Miyamoto Musashi can play a great role. In some areas, he is even treated as an envoy of gods. Of course, there are many people who hate Miyamoto Musashi. For example, Tokugawa Ieki.

The grudge between Tokugawa Iemitsu and Miyamoto Musashi was afraid that it would be clear in detail if it had to write a novel. It was obviously biased to describe it in a few words. However, the general story can be simply described - Miyamoto Musashi killed a person, who happened to be Tokugawa Iemitsu's confidant. There are rumors that he was a man that Tokugawa Iemitsu liked.

Later research shows that before meeting Ah Wan, Tokugawa Iemitsu did not like women and had no feelings for women at all. The man he liked was killed by Miyamoto Musashi, and Tokugawa Iemitsu certainly refused to give up.

"Your Majesty, your uncle is currently recuperating in the country of Muao."

Miyamoto Masaichi said respectfully.

"oh!"

Zhang Zhun nodded, as if he understood a little.

Like many swordsmen, Miyamoto Musashi also has a strong sense of loyalty to the emperor. Miyamoto Musashi has always believed that the Japanese royal family is orthodox, and it is inappropriate for Tokugawa Shogunate to underestimate the royal family. The Tokugawa Shogunate should return the power to the emperor.

Miyamoto Musashi's attack on killing Tokugawa Iegu's confidant may not be entirely because of the duel. How could a wise swordsman like him easily fail? The real reason is probably because of the Tokugawa shogunate. If the opponent is not so close to Tokugawa Iegu, Miyamoto Musashi would not "miyamoto" would not have "miyamoto".

Now, Miyamoto Musashi is meticulous in the country of Muyamoto, which is equivalent to indirectly adding some weight to Hayamoto and Muyamoto. If the Tokugawa shogunate wants to attack these two names, he must consider the influence of Miyamoto Musashi. Obviously, this is something that makes Tokugawa Iemitsu very uncomfortable. I guess behind the scenes, Tokugawa Iemitsu was so angry that he hated Miyamoto Musashi.
