He knew that only in this way could these warriors sacrifice their lives for him. Therefore, he was never stingy in this aspect and never pursued the so-called morality and benevolence.
War is war.
In order to win, we will do whatever it takes, so why do we need morality?
"General, general, there is a letter from home!"
Just then, the scout came to report.
Mizuno Masashige became excited: "Bring it quickly!"
As soon as he read the content of the letter, he was so ambitious that he couldn't help but stand up, his eyes flashing with gleams.
Done!
Mizuno Masashige, before he led the army to set out this time, the internal situation of the Japanese country was actually not optimistic. The Japanese country in the Edo period was in the middle of Edo, and the shogunate was in financial trouble. Although the entitlement reform and the lenient reform were implemented later,
Policies such as the Tenpo Reform attempted to improve things, but they failed to fundamentally solve the problem. Social conflicts were extremely acute, and the Tokugawa family's prestige was no longer there.
It was at this time that Mizuno Masashige, as a general of the Tokugawa family, took the initiative to attack North Korea with the intention of diverting and resolving domestic conflicts!
Unexpectedly.
He really succeeded! Now, he has brought all the wealth of Gyeongsang Province back to Japan one by one.
The Japanese conservatives who had previously scolded him were dumbfounded for a while.
The radicals who supported Mizuno Masashige had already raised the banner within the Japanese country and supported the aggressive war against the Li Dynasty.
Mizuno Masashige also knew.
The next battle will be a fierce battle.
The army from Longyan is not just an ordinary person. It is extremely difficult to defeat them.
So he wrote a letter back to the country, asking for more troops against the Li Dynasty.
If it was a Japanese country in the past, it would naturally not be considered, but seeing Mizuno Masashige, it was only one step away from truly occupying Gyeongsang Province.
The Tokugawa family was also moved.
then.
A slap on the thigh.
Allow Japan to send another 200,000 troops to Mizuno Masashige!
In other words, this time the Japanese army invested a total of 500,000 troops in the Li Dynasty!
Half a million lions!
This time, the bet is on Gyeongsang Province!
"Hahahaha, okay, those old immortals finally got the idea! Finally got the idea!"
Masashi Mizuno is so happy.
"Continue to slow down and wait for reinforcements to arrive! Remember, everyone along the way will be beheaded. I don't want anyone to tip the scales! I want to use these 200,000 troops as a surprise force!"
All the generals responded one after another.
Two hundred thousand surprise soldiers...
If it suddenly appeared in the final battle, what would it be like?
The Li Dynasty will be defeated!
The Japanese will surely win!
...
Li Zhenzhu's side has hurriedly sent out batches of scouts, rushing to each direction of Gyeongsang Province.
However.
It's too late.
He sadly discovered that they had lost Gyeongsang Province and some of the transportation fortresses had been completely occupied by the Japanese.
At this time, it is difficult for even a fly to fly over, let alone a scout?
Not only that.
With the invasion of Japan, many people of the Lee Dynasty in Gyeongsang Province had already formed a "puppet army" team, acting as traitors and working for the Japanese country - the Lee Dynasty had always admired the force of the Japanese country and wanted to escape and live there.
concepts and habits.
"General Xiao, this..."
A group of generals became confused again.
The scouts could not enter Gyeongsang Province, which meant that they had no idea how many reinforcements the Japanese country would have.
That means that they have lost the initiative in the war!
And what they have to face now.
There are also "puppet troops" who may serve as cannon fodder for Japan!
