"Commander of the Army, there is a Fuso man who wants to join our Ming army. It is said that he is the head of the Shimazu family."
Several grenadiers escorted Shimazu Xiong Yi in front of Mu Jiansheng.
"Come to me, Ming Dynasty?" Mu Jiansheng sneered, "I'll give you a chance to convince me, otherwise, I'll use your head as a capital."
Shimazu Xiong Yi followed Mu Jiansheng's finger and saw that the Ming troops were disembarking one after another and cleaning the battlefield.
All the corpses were thrown into the sea to feed the fish. As for the heads, they were all cut off and piled together.
Shimazu Xiong Yi doesn’t want his head to be placed on it.
"I can be the most loyal dog of the Ming Dynasty. I can dedicate all my territory and all the property in my territory to the great Ming Dynasty."
Shimazu Xiong Yi said quickly.
"Kill you, these are all ours, you want to use my things to bribe me?"
Mu Jiansheng sneered.
"I know the geography of the island well, and I can lead the Ming army to conquer those disobedient and sinful people."
Shimazu Xiong Yi lay on the ground and said respectfully.
Hearing what Shimazu Xiong Yi said, Mu Jiansheng's heart moved.
He really needs a local guide to show him the way.
Although Fuso may not look big, compared with the Ming Dynasty, its area is one of the largest in Europe.
Moreover, the terrain of Fuso is rugged, with high mountains and dense forests. Without a familiar guide, marching on the road will be somewhat troublesome.
"Then just be obedient and you will benefit from conquering Fuso. But if I find out that you have told lies, I will skin you and hang you in front of the camp door as a decoration. Do you hear me?"
/p>
Mu Jiansheng asked with a smile.
"I know, I will definitely work hard." Shimazu Xiongyi nodded quickly.
However, Mu Jiansheng did not completely believe Shimazu Xiong Yi, and instead asked the Ming army to select a few wounded soldiers with minor injuries and imprison them separately.
Pull them out every once in a while to identify the terrain.
If several people say different things, it means someone is telling lies.
Under the leadership of Shimazu Xiong Yi, who led the way, Mu Jiansheng led the Ming army to the rich castle of the Otomo family, the neighbor of the Shimadzu family.
"In front of you, my lord, is the Guardian of Kyushu, the home of the Otomo family."
Shimazu Xiong Yi said respectfully.
"You dare to call Kyushu a small and tiny place. You really don't know how to live or die."
Mu Jiansheng looked at Fengfencheng and snorted coldly.
This Fengfeng Castle is relatively stronger than the Shimazu family's city wall, but that's about it.
"She bombarded Fengfencheng and razed it to the ground."
Mu Jiansheng issued the order.
The Ming army began to set up thunder cannons, and Shimazu Xiong Yi's eyelids jumped when he saw the densely packed thunder cannons.
"How much artillery is this? How much money does one round cost? Can the Shimazu family's annual income be worth three rounds of artillery? It is indeed the Ming Dynasty, and only a country as powerful as the Ming Dynasty can afford such an invincible army.
artillery."
Shimazu Xiong Yi's heart is full of envy and reverence.
At the same time, I felt lucky in my heart that I had surrendered to the Ming Dynasty in advance.
I am glad that I abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side as soon as possible, otherwise, I would have been reduced to ashes under the fire of the Ming army.
"Fire!"
Mu Jiansheng issued the order.
The thunder cannons began to roar.
Boom, boom, boom!
Explosive charges covered the city walls of Fengfencheng.
Compared with the rock city walls of the Ming Dynasty, Fusang's city walls are much worse.
Even the castle tower, considered the core of the fortress, is made of wood.
You can imagine how sturdy it is.
After several rounds of shelling, a city wall was completely destroyed, and most of the defenders on the wall were killed or injured.
The remaining people completely lost their belief in fighting, dropped their weapons and fled.
Mu Jiansheng didn't bother to pay attention to those who were running away
The people just ordered the soldiers to advance towards the city.
The warriors in the city tried to take advantage of the familiar terrain to engage in street fighting with the Ming army.
But the Ming army ignored them at all and kept moving forward, demolishing houses and walls when they encountered them.
If you can't hit it yourself, you summon artillery to cover it, which shows no sense of martial ethics.
Keep moving forward under the cover of artillery fire.
Don't give those warriors a chance to get close at all.
The space for those warriors to move became smaller and smaller, and they were eventually squeezed into the core fortress - the castle tower.
"Ahead is the Otomo family's castle, which is said to contain the wealth accumulated by the Otomo family over hundreds of years."
[In view of the general environment,
Shimazu Xiong Yi said from the side.
"It's just that the terrain inside is complicated, and the Dayou family has also built a mechanism. Unfamiliar people can easily get lost inside if they enter. I think it's better to persuade them to surrender and let them donate their gold and silver in exchange for a life."
Shimazu Xiong Yi said cautiously.
"Gold and silver are not damaged by explosions, so fire up."
Mu Jiansheng waved his hand lazily.
By Han Yu's side, he learned a truth, that is, if a problem can be solved with artillery shells, soldiers should not risk their lives.
"Anyway, the gold and silver won't be damaged by the explosion. At worst, it will just be re-melted. The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are very valuable, and they cannot be thrown away in such an unimportant place."
Under Mu Jiansheng's command, hundreds of thunder cannons were aimed at the castle tower and the fuses were lit.
Hundreds of explosive charges fell on the castle tower and exploded.
The castle tower was originally a mixed structure of brick and wood. It looked exquisite, but it was only used to defend against missing arrows. Facing the cannon, it was like a paper lake and was directly blown into ruins. The direct descendants of the Otomo family hiding inside and
The warriors in their hands were all turned into piles of rotten flesh.
Looking at the stumps and broken arms all over the ground, Shimazu Xiong Yi quietly wiped his hands with cold sweat. He was glad that he had awakened early and surrendered to the Ming Dynasty in advance. Otherwise, he would have been buried in the castle tower like the Otomo family.
.
"Clean the battlefield, build the Jingguan, and continue to the next place."
Before Mu Jiansheng went to battle against Fusang, he was given instructions by Han Yu.
Han Yu clearly told Mu Jiansheng that people in Fusang are afraid of power but not moral. The better you treat him, the more arrogant and domineering he will be.
To deal with such a lowly bone, the only way is to beat it to death with a stick. Only when it hurts and scares it will it become extremely submissive.
Therefore, don’t be afraid of cruelty in Fusang.
In the Ming Dynasty, people who were too cruel might be extremely resistant.
But in Fusang, the more brutal you are, the more they are in awe and the less they dare to resist.
After receiving Han Yu's instructions, Mu Jiansheng naturally let go.
Everywhere he goes, he must burn down the city, destroy the houses, and build the capital.
Wherever it passes, rivers of blood flow.
Because he killed too many people, he was dubbed the Demon God of Killing by the locals in Fuso.
After more than a month of fighting, Mu Jiansheng fought all the way to the center of Tokugawa Shogunate rule, at the foot of Edo Castle.
Mu Jiansheng led the Ming army to the foot of Edo Castle. Before they even started to form a formation and deploy artillery, they saw the gate of Edo Castle opened. The contemporary shogun Tokugawa Ietsuna led his samurai to take off their armor and raise their katana swords.
After walking out of the city, they placed the samurai swords in their hands respectfully at Mu Jiansheng's feet, and knelt on the ground to express their submission.
