The Red House starts from Liaodong

Chapter 518 Earthshaking
Amami Oshima, the main island of the Amami Islands, is the largest island after Honshu Island, Hokkaido Island, Kyushu Island, Shikoku Island, and Ryukyu Island.

It is the closest part of the Ryukyu Kingdom to Japan's Kyushu Island. The base camp of the fourth town was built here, with [-] soldiers stationed there.

It is also the island with the largest Japanese influence in the Ryukyu Kingdom. Today, the Japanese forces on the island have been eliminated without a trace, including the pro-Japanese local forces.

Under the pressure of strength, along the prosperity and the reverse, in only two years, the entire Ryukyu Kingdom, from the official to the private, was under the control of the Fourth Town.

The mainland of the Ryukyu Kingdom was controlled by the local pro-Zhou Zheng family and others, and the army was taken over by the fourth town.

More than 120 Korean soldiers and more than [-] barbarian soldiers came across the sea by ferry.

There were more than [-] people on the pier, some looked listless, and some were full of fear.

They are all small people, unable to decide their own destiny, and none of them knows what will happen in the end.

on the pier.

Someone has come to receive it.

Even if this person does not join, as long as he is persuaded to remain neutral, then they will have the strength to fight the Edo shogunate.

"At the moment we need the support of the Han people. In order to win, we should win them over instead of being hostile to them."

Their torii clan was personally sent by the second generation shogun Tokugawa Hidetada to serve as elders beside Tokugawa Tadaga.

"The most important thing right now is that my lord should go to see Tokugawa Yoshinobu in person."

"I'm afraid it will be difficult to get in for half a month."

"They tricked me once, so don't blame me for being cruel."

Although more and more subordinates have been transferred to him, Japan is too big, has too many forces, and the situation changes rapidly, so it can be said that they do not come and go in a hurry.

The fourth town of the nearly [-] newly combined army has dropped to [-], and it sits in the Ryukyu country to recharge its batteries.

Zhao Xueyan didn't care at all, anyway, whatever the superior decides, they can implement it until they are informed that the original new coalition army will not be sent.

And behind Edo, there are more than 20 troops united by Honda Zhengchun to contain the shogunate, with a total of [-] troops, attacking the shogunate army from top to bottom.

It's better to give him [-] new combined army. If it is the new combined army that has been polished, he will be more confident in winning the battle.

As long as the shogunate army is defeated, it will not be a dream to occupy Edo.

Adopt the strategy of the elders, use the influence of the death of the Japanese emperor to expand their own power, and call on all parts of the country to unite against Tokugawa Iemitsu.

Japan's current civil war has reached hundreds of thousands of troops. What can these 9000 miscellaneous troops do? If they are not careful, the entire army will be wiped out.

Tokugawa Tadacho made rebellion, Kai, Suruga, and Enjiang did not immediately go north to capture Edo, but expanded around and defeated the pro-shogunate daimyo.

The remnants of the government in Gyeonggi made it impossible for Tokugawa Iemitsu to leave Gyeonggi immediately. If he wanted to win, he must not miss this opportunity now.

When his father died, he should have made a decision earlier, instead of stepping back and giving way to his elder brother, and rushing into things today.

The soldiers transferred from the country came and went quickly. In half a month, they only wiped out the sluggishness that came from thousands of miles away by boat, and then they were sent to the battlefield.

When I unify Japan, I must take revenge on the Jin Jiang army.

But he didn't talk about other things, at least the young master could listen to him and persuade him, which made him feel relieved.

soon.

After more than [-] years, the Torii family has devoted all their efforts to supporting the young master, and has merged with Tadaga Tokugawa.

Tadaga Tokugawa looked at Mr. Torii.

Join or die.

The old Torii family said in a deep voice.

Whether it is Zhu Zixue or the monastery, there are many scholars and theories of the Han people.

"The matter has come to this point, and it is not good for us to pursue the facts. Some things have been seen, but we should pretend not to see them."

And Zhao Xueyan knew very well that the general actually loved Ge Shifeng very much. Although Li Rujing was the adopted son of the general, in the general's mind, the two had equal status.

As for the decline in combat effectiveness, it is no longer under consideration.

Japan's military strength is still not weak, and it is not comparable to a country like North Korea. Zhao Xueyan, who fought against Japan in the Ryukyu Kingdom, has a lot of knowledge.

"We only have half a month."

The old Torii family saw the master's intentions.

However, some shortcomings are not an excuse.Facing the young master who lost his position as the shogun, none of the old retainers left.

Now it has become the name of Tokugawa Tadagami, a good friend of Nine Thousand Soldiers who entered Japan to support Kanae-jin.

Pan Xun, Zhao Xueyan's foster brother, frowned with concern.

With the help of this influence, they can win over more daimyos who are still on the sidelines, which will play a vital role in defeating the enemy.

Tokugawa Yoshinobu is the younger brother of Tokugawa Hidetada, and the uncle of Tokugawa Tadaga, the head of the three imperial families, blocking the only way for the army to come to support from Kyushu Island.

"Han people can't be trusted."

Ge Shifeng said coldly.

If the assassination is successful, the reputation of the shogunate will not fall here. With the support of the emperor, he can successfully inherit the position of shogun.

The elder brother shouldn't be left with the opportunity to gradually control the shogunate and gain the army of the shogunate by relying on his fame.

It can be said that when the assassination in Kyoto failed and the news of the emperor's suicide spread, the big names everywhere were expanding their military, and no one was thinking about people's livelihood.

"No one can be trusted."

From Hamgyong Road and Ping'an Road, Nuergan transferred 9000 Koreans and [-] barbarians, and combined with [-] new troops, a total of [-] people entered Japan.

With the guidance of the general and the efforts of Liu Xianglian, the impossible civil strife was launched in Japan.

One of them must die.

"The addition of nine thousand fresh troops will play a major role in our defeat of Tokugawa Iemitsu, and should not be wasted lightly."

Too many regrets, let Tokugawa Tadaga never forget.

Everyone believed that the position of the third-generation shogun would be passed on to Tokugawa Tadacho.

Li Rujing, Zhao Xueyan, Xu Jufei, Ge Shifeng, Pan Xun.

Hearing Ge Shifeng's words, Zhao Xueyan's face darkened.

One glory and one glory.

Tokugawa Iemitsu served as the shogun for several years, and his strength far surpassed that of Tokugawa Tadacho. He could not resist the shogun only by his own military strength.

"It's not that I'm being extreme. As far as this plan is concerned, it can be said to be full of loopholes. Nine thousand soldiers have entered Japan, and they are not familiar with the place and language. There are flaws everywhere."

What kind of battle is this motherfucker fighting?

How many troops can be assembled depends on the amount of food, and how much food can be used to pull out as many troops.

"The emperor arranged for the assassination in Kyoto to be foolproof. He had already surrounded Tokugawa Iemitsu, but failed unexpectedly in the end."

When the young master was young, the second shogun gave the rich and huge Kai to the young master as his territory.

Only Ge Shifeng.

The right time, the right place, and the right people do not occupy the same. This is a big taboo for military strategists.

Some time ago, it was rumored to ignore Japan, and later it was said that a group of soldiers were sent to Japan to assist Japan, and finally it was rumored that [-] soldiers conquered Japan.

In his opinion, the young master's life was too smooth.

The two have natural conflicts and cannot make peace.

result.

The old Torii sighed.

"Ok."

It is too dangerous to mobilize nine thousand troops into Japan in such a haste.

At the beginning, the military town transferred [-] veterans, but they refused to return them when they went away, which caused many people to scold them. Zhao Xueyan also lost two veterans.

Once there is a war, a large number of civilians in the territory can be drawn.

"There are rumors that some assassins suddenly stepped out of the way, which is why Tokugawa Iemitsu managed to escape."

The calmness of Japan concealed the situation of the crater under the ground. Now that the "volcano" erupted, the changes in the situation were beyond control, and Liu Xianglian was devastated.

The middle-level military officers did not know what kind of tacit agreement they had reached with Japan. They said that there was a stalemate with Japan for a while, and they said that the two sides were friendly.

Japan's enfeoffment system has led to insufficient central government power, but local control power has increased.

At that time, I ruled for more than [-] years, and the military strength of the territories in my hands far exceeded that of my eldest brother's direct descendants.

Ge Shifeng was promoted to the battalion general, Zhao Xueyan and Pan Xun were promoted to the thousand generals.

Tokugawa Tadaga said bitterly.

According to his understanding, the situations in Japan, grasslands and North Korea are different.

So when I was an adult, I encountered setbacks and lost the will to advance and retreat. Now that I have made a decision, I should stare at my eyes.

"This matter must have come from Liu Experience again."

"What you said is too extreme."

It's just that it's hard for him to say anything about the fifty veterans before, because he still has a thorn in his heart, and he doesn't want to get close to Liu Xianglian.

Although Li Rujing was powerful, he still had the glory of being the adopted son of a general, and they all had the shadow of the elders in the army.

"You don't understand, stop talking nonsense."

He didn't know that he supported Liu Xianglian, but he didn't oppose him either.

Zhao Xueyan scolded dissatisfied.

The [-] Korean soldiers came from the local Weisuo Army, and the [-] barbarians also came from the army, and they also experienced wars.

When facing Ge Shifeng, Zhao Xueyan lacked confidence. Pan Xun listened to Zhao Xueyan's words and saw that his righteous brothers were like this, and he also did not dare to speak nonsense in front of Ge Shifeng.

Even if some people objected, it would not be the difficult situation today.

Tokugawa Tadaga had a gloomy expression on his face.

The position at your fingertips has become extremely dangerous, and self-protection has become a luxury, and Tokugawa Tadaga can't swallow this breath.

Therefore, Ge Shifeng's complexion changed, and neither of them refuted.

If you look at Liu Xianglian without a standpoint, Ge Shifeng admires this person very much.

Pan Xun nodded in approval of Zhao Xueyan's words.

In the original history, it was Tadaga Tokugawa who was executed.

The battalion chief Ge Shifeng, the thousand chief Zhao Xueyan, and Pan Xun.

From being an orphan all the way to where she is today, she has real talent and vision.

Kai is not far from Edo, and then successively granted other territories, which shows the intention of the second generation shogun.

General Li Qi was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the army, Chen Rui, the commander of the left battalion, and Liu Tong, the commander of the right battalion.

The future will be discussed later, the present is the thing that needs to go all out, otherwise there will be no future.

Dazhou has a huge influence in Japan.

Liu Xianglian is from aristocratic background, from China, has no relationship with them, and does not treat soldiers as human beings.

Zhao Xueyan is not blaming Liu Xianglian herself, but the plan this time.

But the sources are too diverse.

They can accept death on the battlefield, but in their opinion, this kind of death is a waste of the lives of the warriors.

Beside him, the 28-year-old Ge Shifeng, with a beard growing on his face, coupled with the erosion of the sea wind and years of exposure to the sun, looks like a suanni.

"The past should be forgotten. What needs to be done is to be based on the present and be troubled by the past. How to look forward to the ambition."

With their status, they quickly figured out that the plan itself was to die, and everyone was furious.

Looking at the messy scene in the distance, Zhao Xueyan couldn't help shaking her head, showing dissatisfaction in her eyes.

Ge Shifeng interrupted the insults of the two and did not allow them to spread bad words.

The young master didn't tell his subordinates that he was the wise master in people's mouth. His only shortcoming was his weak character and lack of courage.

People are ranked by this.

A total of more than [-] people from the whole army went to Japan to assist Tokugawa Tadaga.

Since they were going to fight in Japan, they should prepare in advance. The [-]-odd new coalition troops from the Fourth Town arrived in the Ryukyu Kingdom more than a year earlier.

"The Nine Thousand Soldiers only have half a month to polish, and acclimatization is a big hidden danger." Zhao Xueyan said with an ugly face, pointing at the crowd lying on the pier vomiting.

The kneeling old Torii family lowered their heads, pondered for a moment, then raised their heads and said.

The emperor's incident made Tokugawa Iemitsu lose his reputation, so the joining of the Kanae Army will not only not arouse common hatred, but will instead strengthen his own influence.

Now Tokugawa Iemitsu made a big mistake. The death of the emperor made him lose his name, and instead he became a traitor against all the famous names in Japan.

The old Torii family said seriously.

Although he gathered one hundred thousand soldiers, he still couldn't decide many things according to his will, and instead wanted to please others.

No matter in North Korea or on the grasslands, the generals have a far-sighted view, and they all accurately predict the timing. With the help of the timing, there is a lot to do, but Japan is different.

And because of this, Tokugawa Iemitsu could not ignore his younger brother, his strength was too threatening to his status.

Zhao Xueyan's father is Zhao Gouyong, and he already has a certain understanding of domestic virtues. After many years of experience, he hates this ethos the most.

Pioneer Camp.

No family can afford to lose their reputation.

"This man lacks talent and is unfit for great responsibility. It is difficult to support him in Japan. He will only use the lives of soldiers to stop his mistakes. It is really hateful."

The situation in Japan is what it is today, and more of it is created.

The new coalition army was originally complicated, and it took many years to get into order. The whole army was ordered like a mountain, and there was a battalion of the new coalition army, a battalion of the North Korean army, and a battalion of the barbarian army.

Seeing Ge Shifeng's uneasy expression, although the two were depressed, they didn't speak anymore.

Leaving aside the new coalition army that had been prepared for a long time, and using the newly transferred motley army, Zhao Xueyan lacked confidence.

"Back then, Tao Jie was in North Korea, and Jia Jian was in the grasslands. Both of them did better than Liu Xianglian. They never regarded soldiers as consumables."

Tokugawa Tadacho took a deep breath.

The Jinjiang army has 16 elite soldiers, [-] soldiers from its own pool, and more than [-] elite soldiers from Kyushu Island. After the merger, it will reach [-] soldiers.

Jinjiang Town Five Tigers.

"What a hodgepodge."

……

Self-preservation is the most important thing in the present. As for the people who will starve to death in the coming year, they will be the people who will starve to death.

As long as he survived by himself, the army in his hand would not be affected, and the people in the territory would recover in a few years.

The efforts of the three generations of the shogunate for decades, such as the one country one city order, sending officials to various countries for supervision, etc., weakened the local daimyo and strengthened the shogunate's control policies, all of which were lost in one day.

Although it's only been a few months, the situation in Japan has been turned upside down.
