Chapter 564 The Doomsday of the Shimazu Family

Zhao Xin's words did not have an immediate effect. It was not until a few months later, when the propaganda department made great efforts to broadcast the news in various villages and towns that Fu Mingtai's family had reacted. He immediately ran to the mountains to tell Dawa and others, which shocked everyone in the tribe where Dawa was located.

For the border people of all ethnic groups and even ordinary people under the rule of Beihai Town, Zhao Xin's status is like a noble emperor. Such a "high-ranking" person could even have dinner and chat with ordinary people without any airs, which made Fu Mingtai, Dawa and others feel deeply moved.

Thinking of what Zhao Xin said to him and the other three that day, Dawa, Na Yanzhuo and others finally made a decision. They went down the mountain the next day to contact the civil affairs clerk, and soon they took the reindeer down the mountain to settle down.

The town office in Humal Town also learned from the past lessons. With the assistance of the local Beihai garrison, it built a two-kilometer-long water diversion channel to lure the mountain spring water to the settlement villages of the Ewenki people to facilitate the drinking of reindeer. In response to the reindeer's love for eating willow leaves, the Civil Affairs Bureau issued another order prohibiting the arbitrary cutting of willow trees around the settlement.

In the past year, the northeast was vast and sparsely populated, and wild animals were everywhere, and there was no poaching in another time and space. In addition, Beihai Town opened the use of muskets to border residents two years ago, so that they could effectively prevent their livestock from being harmed by wild animals. Of course, all sold weapons will be numbered and registered and checked regularly.

In early September 1791, as the northwest wind gradually rose, Zhao Xin issued an order to send seven modified thousand-ton wide ships to the south to replace the Thor and Beihai No. 1 and Beihai No. 2 that were about to return to Beihai Town for overhaul.

These seven Guangzhou ships were brought back by Zheng Yi from Siam before. They all had diesel engines and awakened the hull structure and re-reinforced them. Six of them were equipped with 16 75mm guns, and the other was a modified oil supply ship. Although these modified Guangzhou ships were not as good as Beihai No. 1 and No. 2, it was enough to deal with the Dutch Garen ships.

The East Indies also produces oil, but the land oil mines are all on Sumatra. It is currently under the rule of the indigenous Sudan, and is extremely closed and has very backward transportation conditions. If Beihai Town wants to mine crude oil there and refine it, it must establish a stronghold on the local coast, which is not possible at the moment.

Three of the seven modified ships heading south will be deployed to Batavia, and the other three and supply ships will be deployed in Hoi An and Ganlingao in Annan. By the way, the commander of the local fleet heading south is Zheng Wenxian. Zheng Qi, who has been renamed Zheng Yaohuang, has also become the captain this time.

Although Zheng Yi's fleet commander qualification was only temporary, and he could only command three ships when he arrived in Bacheng, he was better than Guo Xuexian. After receiving the order, Zheng Wenxian and Zheng Yaohuang were in a very happy mood. The first thing he did after returning home was to bring his wife and children to burn incense to the ancestors' tablets to comfort the spirit of heaven who resisted the Qing ancestors.

This time they went south, there was another task, which was to assist He Xiwen's troops in encirclement and suppress the remnants of the Shimazu family who fled to the northern islands of Okinawa.

On August 27, Zhao Xin received a war report from Mizuro. He Xiwen led his men to defeat the Shimazu family forces entrenched on the Seijima Islands and Okinawa's main islands, and are currently pursuing the remnants. However, the only drawback is that because the Shimazu family held Prince Shangmu's grandson hostage and resisted stubbornly, the Shuri Castle Palace was destroyed in the war, and King Shangmu and his grandson Shangwen were taken away by Shimazu Kiritsuno.

Since Deng Fei and the others left last time, Shimazu Ki-Hsuan has used a large number of civilians to urgently build two forts in Naba Port and set up six 8-pound cannons bought from the Dutch. When He Xiwen's fleet crossed Taiwan Island in a fierce manner, Forsaken Fan, who was set up on the islands of Xiandao, discovered them and quickly ignited the beacon to call the police.

Shimazu Kiruo knew that something was wrong, so he immediately issued an order on behalf of King Shangmu to let Naha and Shuri and other places mobilize the military and civilians. He equipped his samurai with a medley, and distributed knives, guns, bows and arrows to the military and civilians of Ryukyu, and ordered who dared to escape and kill on the spot. However, when five 75mm cannons in He Xiwen's fleet opened fire, six bronze cannons on the fort were blown up one after another, and the defenders were killed and injured.

The Ryukyu people who were recruited had never seen this bloody scene. They soon scattered and even the supervisory team formed by Shimazu samurai could not stop them. Naha Fengxing, who was in charge of the command, saw that the situation was not good, so he led his subordinates to retreat to Naha City.

Attacking Ryukyu and destroying Shimazu family was the first time He Xiwen and his brothers surrendered as the North Navy after they fought. For the bright and lofty future in their hearts, He Xiwen charged forward every battle after he got ashore, holding two guns, killing people with people and Buddhas, and killing Buddhas with Buddhas. In addition, with the powerful firepower support of the land warfare company, the pirates of more than 1,500 people also screamed and rushed into Naba Port.

The landing went smoothly, but the Shimazu family was not a good meal. When facing life and death, all the warriors also fought their lives. Although they could not defeat the regular army of Beihai Town, they were evenly matched with the pirates.

Although He Xiwen's men were equipped with many flintlock guns seized in Bacheng, they were not trained enough and fought in chaos. In addition, the Shimazu family also had a lot of firearms. You should know that Seed Island, which produced "iron cannons" in the Warring States Period, was originally under the rule of the Satsuma Domain. Although Mitsukushu had been ruled by the Sendai Basilica, the blacksmith shop on Seed Island had always been secretly engaging in style with the Shimazu family.

After three days of siege and street fighting, He Xiwen's troops paid the price of more than 200 casualties and finally captured Naha City. When He Xiwen posted a notice in Naha City, telling the local people that the North Navy was here to expel the Shimazu family and restore the rule of King Shangmu, the Ryukyu people then changed from fear to joy, and they all took pots of slurry to welcome the "King Army".

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Before leaving, Deng Fei harshly warned He Xiwen and his men that after logging in, he must not rob and rape the people of Ryukyu, and must not occupy the residences of local people. You must pay fairly for buying things; otherwise, once discovered, the Land Warfare Company has the right to implement battlefield discipline and shoot directly.

Although the pirates complained about this, they sang songs on any mountain, not to mention that the treatment of the Northern Navy is quite good. Although they have not started formal training, the treatment is equivalent to that of new recruits; they have good food and clothing, and are equipped with health workers, which makes the pirates from poor fishermen cry.

The difference between killing Shuri and fighting Naha, the cannons on the ship were not reachable at all. Fortunately, the Cai family and Cheng family of Kumi Village who came here helped a lot. They found more than twenty plowing oxen, and then they pushed and pulled the cannons unloaded from the ship to the city of Shuri.

With the firepower of the 75mm cannon and the two mortars of the Land Warfare Company, Shuri Castle's defense was like paper. As the city defense was broken, the samurai of the Shimazu family and the Ryukyu people who supported them retreated to the palace.

He Xiwen saw it and said, stop talking nonsense, keep on banging! As a result, it can be imagined that the large courtyard that took nearly three hundred years to build was eventually destroyed by war. The main hall, which was decorated extremely gorgeously and was built with the imperial plaques of the third generation of Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong, was blown down and the roof collapsed, becoming a complete dangerous building.

After the city was broken, Zijin doctor Cai Shichang took over the position of the Three Secretariat (Prince of the State). He immediately eliminated political enemies with the support of He Xiwen and captured the ministers of the Shimazu family.

Although Shuri was liberated, the biggest problem next was to rescue the mob of King Shangmu Wen. Although the main island of Ryukyu is not big, Shimazu Qixuan had a fleet, and this guy later started guerrilla wars with He Xiwen and the others on the sea.

In order to completely cut off the existence of the Shimazu family in the Ryukyu islands, after clearing the remnants of the Shimazu family on Okinawa Island, He Xiwen took his fleet to Seed Island and to the islands in southeastern Taiwan, searching and suppressing one island after another.

On September 7, Zheng Wenxian's fleet arrived at Shishui County on Kyushu Island. After a brief rest, he immediately went south to join the clearance operation.

Although Shimazu Kiyoshi was in the Ryukyu islands and was familiar with the terrain of each island, it was not a long-term solution to lose supplies. On September 12, the remnants of Shimazu family, who were at the end of their journey, were blocked on Amami Island. After a half-day bloody battle, the last 200 samurai soldiers of Shimazu family were killed and injured.

After the defeat, Shimazu Kiritsu knew that even if he surrendered, he would not end well. This guy hated King Shangmu's collusion with Beihai Town and decided to take a cushion before he died, so he killed him with one knife. The five-year-old heir Shang Wen was frightened because of his days of running around. He had typhoid fever and had a high fever. He had already inhaled but did not breathe, so he escaped.

On the night of September 12, 1791, Shimazu Kiyoshi came to a "fan cut" in the imperial clinic on Amami Oshima. His waiter, Tosukeko, cut his head and took it away and buried it overnight.

Since the "Qingchang Ryukyu Battle" became a vassal of the Satsuma vassal, the Ryukyu Kingdom has been around for almost two hundred years, and it has finally escaped from the control of the Shimazu family today.

In the early morning of September 13, soldiers from the Land War Company who rushed into the Imperial Courtyard discovered the dying Shang Wen. After diagnosis by the medical soldiers with the team, they confirmed that it was a germ infection and needed to be isolated and treated immediately. Because Shang Wen was only five years old, ordinary anti-inflammatory and sterilization drugs could not be used at all, so they could only undergo infusion to replenish water.

After learning about Shang Wen's situation, Zheng Wenxian immediately contacted the General Staff on the radio station to report to the General Staff. The General Staff of the Northern Navy quickly called back and ordered Zheng Wenxian to send Shang Wen to Beihai Town for treatment immediately. It would be too late. After a long time of fighting, if even the heirs of the Shang family were gone, the Ryukyu Kingdom would definitely be in chaos.

That morning, in a courtyard in the Amami Oshima Imperial Office, He Xiwen's group of subordinates were talking about the newly captured female members of the Shimazu family.

These guys have been out of the sea for several months, and there are not many who feel itchy when they see women. They have to uphold military discipline in Naha and Shuri and cannot harass and tease the people; but now facing a group of female prisoners, Huahua finally can't help it.

"This is good, this is good! Big breasts and big butts, it's easy to keep your child healthy."

"That's the best. It looks like a yellow-flowered girl."

"Huh? Why is there a pregnant woman?"

Although the female relatives of the Shimazu family are all descendants of Daming - for example, Shimazu Kiri's wife Mei Ji is the daughter of Satake Yoshiaki, the lord of the Akita vassal lord, but in the poor areas of the Satsuma vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal

At this time, the female family members were frightened by the expressions of the pirates and shuddered. Shimazu Kiyoshi's pregnant main room was surrounded by several maids, trying to stop the pirates from approaching. As for the side room and other young female members, they all had tears in their eyes, knelt on the ground, looking like they accepted their fate.

After a while, a former pirate leader, who was a platoon leader, finally couldn't help it. He looked greedy and reached out to pull a young woman. The women were immediately scared and screamed.

Suddenly, a young woman with a pretty appearance suddenly stood up from the female kneeling on the ground. She pulled out a short knife from her arms that was shorter than the waistline. The horizontal knife stopped the guy who was about to step forward, and at the same time scared the others.

"You bastards! You guys don't retreat quickly! What kind of heroes are bullying women?! Whoever dares to get close, I will fight him!" After the woman said that, she put the knife on her neck again.

This is so amazing. A prisoner dares to explode the thorn! Someone asked the accompanying Ryukyu translator what the woman said. When he learned the content, the dozen or so guys present suddenly became angry.

"This little girl is pretty good. I'll send her to my house tonight!"

"Fart! Send me to my house!"

"Oh, what are you two fighting for! Shopa-scissors, one day for one person."

"No! There are so many Japanese girls, which one he can't choose? Why do you have to compete with me!"

"Isn't it good to do this? If Boss He knows, will he enforce military law? I think it's better to forget it!"

"What do you know! These are all prisoners, and dealing with them is not considered a violation of military discipline."

"What's the noise?" Everyone looked back and saw Huang Zhongtong, the second in commander, and several soldiers from the land battle camp, walked over separately. Seeing the authentic North Navy coming, the pirates immediately became enthusiastic, nodded and greeted with a smile.

When Huang Zhongtong asked the translator present about the incident, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. He walked to the woman and said, "You can only wait for a group of betrayal dogs. My North Navy will not kill innocent people, so I will spare your life. Whose woman are you, dare to insult?!"

"Master Huang said it well!"

"What a fucking fight! Just sell this woman to the kiln! Everyone will share the money!"

"You're right!" The pirates suddenly felt that this was the most creative. If it was beneficial, everyone would have to have a share.

Although the woman could not understand the dirty words of the people in front of her, she could guess at the expressions of them. Her face turned pale and her lips trembled slightly. But when she heard the sobs of the women behind her, she finally made a fuss and pointed her knife at Huang Zhongtong and said, "I am the thirteenth generation master of the Jiji Shimazu family, the only daughter of Shimazu Shimazu Shirashima County, and the fiancee of Zhaowang Palace in Beihai Town!"

After saying this, the women kneeling on the ground looked at the woman in shock.

"What did she say?" Huang Zhongtong saw the woman talking a lot, and hurriedly asked the translator beside her.

After the translation was finished, there was no other sound in the yard except for the faint sobs of the women, and everyone was stunned. Prince Zhao’s fiancée? Isn’t that the princess who has no place to go? Why does Prince Zhao have a Japanese wife?

At this time, someone heard a "burp" sound from his throat. The two guys who had been trying to send the woman to his house had their legs weak and almost collapsed on the ground.

Huang Zhongtong turned his gaze to the soldiers of the Land Camp who came together and asked, "Brother, do you know this?"

Several soldiers from the Land War Camp were also surprised. Some people shook their heads and said they didn't know. A soldier who had followed Zhao Xin to fight Jiuzhou said, "It seems that something is really going on."

"Are you sure?!"

"I heard from the superiors before, so I don't know the details."

Huang Zhongtong swallowed a mouthful of saliva, saying that he was not afraid of ten thousand, but he was afraid of it. It would be fine if it was fake. If this was true, it would ruin the big matter of Boss He. He immediately said to a subordinate: "Let these women find a place to live in good health and detention, treat them with courtesy, and do not neglect all food! No one is allowed to harass you! Those who violate the order will engage in accordance with military law!"

Not long after, Zheng Wenxian, who was in the temporary command center, received a report from Huang Zhongtong. He was stunned for a moment. After thinking about it, he asked someone to find his cousin Zheng Yaohuang. The two of them found a secluded place and discussed for a long time.

"Brother No. 1, you are the commander-in-chief, you have to take the idea."

"What should I do? I'm so worried!"
