The Japanese Kingdom is located in the largest city on Kyushu Island, Kumamoto Castle!
Broken!
No flowers and applause...
There is no welcome from the common people...
Just because the Kumamoto Castle to the west of the moat had already been turned into a sea of flames by the bombardment...
The reason why the castle is safe and sound is precisely because there is not only a large open space between it and the city, but also a wide and deep moat!
Cao Yuanzhao was able to make the splitting and breaking tactics so smooth, thanks to the Japanese people's weird city-building thinking...
In the view of the Japanese people in power...the reason why Kumamoto Castle is called a castle is because of the existence of the castle, and the people and residences outside the castle are just add-ons to the castle...
Therefore, the life and death of the people in the city has nothing to do with the daimyo. At most, a few buffer earth walls and a narrow moat can be erected outside the residential areas...
On the other hand, daimyo's castles... are often backed by mountains! And they are built on the commanding heights of this area. Not only are they far away from the busy city, but they also have moats, city walls, mountain defenses, archery towers, etc. built in between.
All defense systems!
It can be said that they have everything, and they are inseparable from each other...
The contrast is so great, it’s as if the people in the downtown area are not human beings at all and are only worthy of being stepping stones for those in power! www.81zw.????m
And those in power, even the lowest class of lower-class warriors...if they are bumped into by these untouchables while walking, they can directly draw their swords and kill them without any punishment...
Since you yourselves... don't regard your own people as human beings...
Then I, Cao Yuanzhao...why should I bother myself?
All the bombardment ranges were strictly divided by him around the city. After several rounds of glycerin bombs, the city immediately burst into flames and blocked everyone's escape route. In this way, not only the lower-class people in the city were
No one can escape, and even the people in the city can't get out... They can only wait for the sea of fire to slowly engulf them...
"He...is Kato Kiyomasa..."
At this time, Cao Yuanzhao left the large army on the mountain, while he himself walked in from the back door of the castle with only twenty personal guards...
"Who are you...?"
Kato Kiyomasa asked loudly in very poor Chinese... There was no trace of panic or fear on his face, only a look of relief and calm...
"Can you speak Chinese? That's easy!" Cao Yuanzhao smiled slightly, pointed at himself with his thumb, and said loudly: "I, Cao Yuanzhao! General Zhaoyong of Daliang!! It's me! I defeated you!"
"It's just a sneak attack when I'm not prepared..."
"Nonsense! Is it possible that I have to write a letter in advance to tell you when I am coming!?" Cao Yuanzhao is still young after all... Faced with the other party's aggressive words, he directly responded angrily...
The mature and steady Kato Kiyomasa just smiled slightly and continued to sarcastically say: "Looking at how young you are, you can reach the second rank of Daliang... Could it be that you rely on the ancestor's shadow...?"
"Ha! Zu Yin? A second-grade subordinate? You really know a lot... It's a pity that you said it wrong... We are called second-grade subordinates, not second-grade subordinates! And you... don't have to provoke me to kill you...
What I want most is yet to come!”
Listening to the other party's constant verbal instigation, Cao Yuanzhao gradually regained his composure. He knew what the disarmed old man wanted to do. It was nothing more than "seeking death", but before he got the map... this old man definitely couldn't do it.
die……
So Cao Yuanzhao slowly raised his finger and pointed at the trembling young man in rich clothes next to the old man and said in a deep voice: "He...should be your son, right? If you don't want him to die...then...
Hand over all the city defense maps and coastal defense maps you collected..."
Upon hearing this, Kato Kiyomasa's eyebrows immediately raised slightly... After thinking for a while, he smiled and said: "He is indeed my son, but he... is not as important as those drawings..."
"Oh? Really? It doesn't matter... If you don't help me find it, my people will be found sooner or later... Just make sure you really have it!" After saying this, Cao Yuanzhao waved his hand and turned to leave...
But behind him, Kato Kiyomasa immediately added with confidence: "Don't worry! They...can't find..."
Upon hearing this, Cao Yuanzhao quickly turned around and walked back. He walked until he was in front of Kato Kiyomasa, and then said with a sinister smile: "I am also worried that they can't find it... Then why don't you help me...
How about you give me a picture... and I'll let your whole family go...?"
"Really! Really!??"
Before Kato Kiyomasa could speak, the young man who had been trembling took the initiative to come over... but was directly pushed to the ground by two soldiers!
Cao Yuanzhao was overjoyed when he saw this. He hurriedly waved and asked two soldiers to pull him up from the ground. When he walked over to talk to him, he first glanced at the livid-faced Kato Kiyomasa and showed him a smile.
A proud smile on his face...
"Him! He only knows part of the blueprints! Several key coastal defense plans and city defense plans! I hid them all with my own hands! He can't find them!!" Kato Kiyomasa tried his best to break free, looking like he wanted to
He looked like he was going to strangle his son to death, but...how could he, now in his sixties, be able to escape from two young and strong men...
"Oh? Really?? But you know it but refuse to tell me... Then I might as well find out part of it first and then..."
"I will take you to find it!! As long as you swear! I will give you the blueprints and let us all go!! I will give you all the blueprints!!"
"Tsk...it has become so fast...can't it be a scam??" Cao Yuanzhao couldn't help but show a hint of suspicion at this moment, but Kato Kiyomasa looked at his son and replied loudly: "You can call him too
!If what I pointed out is wrong...he will tell you!"
"Ha! Do you think I am a three-year-old boy!?" Cao Yuanzhaoli didn't bother to pay attention to him. He waved his hand directly and signaled the two guards to escort Kato Tadahiro to the castle...
Compared to a person who is not afraid of death at all...
Obviously the one who is afraid of death is more believable...
Kato Kiyomasa...finally lost all composure...
In desperation, he pretended to be sick and fell forward with his whole body! The two soldiers also felt the strength in their hands loosen. They thought that the old man was really in a hurry, so they relaxed a little!
Slowly squatting down, trying to support the other person... But this... is exactly the opportunity Kato Kiyomasa wants...
I saw the old man who had just "passed out" suddenly broke free from his restraints and took advantage of the situation to touch the rifle on the soldier's back! He didn't take it down anymore! He just used the soldier's back as a support and aimed at his son.
Just fight!
But after a crisp "click" sound...the flint did not move at all...
Because he didn't know...Liang Guo's rifles were simply not comparable to fire sticks like ordinary flintlock rifles...
Liang Guo's gun not only has a sight and a flip-top for loading, but there is also a key thing called a safety...
