Chapter 1022: Deterrence

In the early morning, the morning sun is rising, and the soldiers under Nangong Mountain are like forests, and they are as vast as the sea.

On a flat ground on the mountainside, Sakai Tadashi stands on horseback, and beside him is the Tokugawa clan's golden trimrock family crest flag, which is even more dazzling in the sunlight.

Under the banner, Sakai Tadashi watched the large array of the shogunate army with satisfaction, stretching for several miles, covering the mountains and fields, with flags like the sea, swords and spears like forests.

All the main roads of Nangong Mountain were occupied by the shogunate army, which was the result of their arrangement for two hours before dawn.

He looked at the big array, full of confidence, the shogunate has such abundant troops, just one after another, round after round, can also shake the array of the Ming army, and then he personally led the Tokugawa elite division of the Chinese army, giving the Ming army a thunderous blow, and the overall situation can be determined!

Doesn't it say that victory is reserved for those who are prepared?

Today, the Shogunate did it! Heaven will give the Tokugawa shogunate a victory card!

In the midst of his thoughts, the earth suddenly trembled slightly, and the gray field in front of Mt. Sasao was covered with red.

First, there was a sea of tall flags, followed by a dazzling red phalanx, and the military array spreading across the sky slowly descended, covering the mountains and fields.

I saw that the neat phalanxes of the Ming army were forbidden in the trumpets and drums, and the neat steps seemed to make the entire official area vibrate slightly.

The Tianwu army came down from the mountain, they stepped on heavy steps, the military formation was extremely orderly and neat, and wherever they looked, wave after wave was extremely shocking and powerful.

The neat and powerful momentum of 10,000 people made the shogunate troops preparing for war stunned for a while, and the originally noisy departments lost their voices one by one.

In the shogunate army, Yoshizawa Bright held a musket, raised his head sluggishly, and looked directly at the Ming army that was slowly approaching.

Although they are far away, the unstoppable momentum they exude seems to tell all enemies that they are invincible!

Suddenly, there was an exclamation, and one of the shogunate soldiers was so frightened that he threw down his weapon and fled screaming.

Yoshizawa turned his head to look, only to see a samurai captain carrying a sword to teach the escaping man how to leg, and then the captain carried the ashigaru simple uniform, dragged him to the front of the battle and beheaded him on the spot!

Yoshizawa's pupils widened, and he looked at this scene in surprise, and subconsciously took two steps back.

He did not step on the feet of his comrades behind him, because the comrades behind him were the same, and he cowered and retreated.

The appearance of the Ming army caused a fearful riot in the shogunate army, and the daimyo of various ministries worked hard to prepare an array for an hour, and at this moment there was a local chaos.

Under the shouts of several daimyos, the Ashigaru generals ran around in front of the formation, anxiously coordinating the formation.

Tokugawa Mitsuyoshi, the deputy commander of the shogunate army, rode his horse in front of the battle, and constantly shouted loudly: "Shogunate samurai, you are the masters of this land, the Ming army is here to invade your land, seize your wife, children and houses, they will kill you all!" ”

Yoshizawa looked blank and muttered, "My land and house were robbed by the shogunate...... And my good friend is still waiting for me in Mito Domain......"

The roar of Tokugawa Mitsuyoshi came from his ears again: "The Ming army will be like the Yuan Kou and Qing Prisoners back then, and you will be called as slaves, and you will never be able to turn over!" ”

"Samurai, cheer up, don't be afraid!"

The shogunate army seems to have some courage, and their eyes are a little more normal, and some of them have no opinions and are directly brainwashed successfully, and their eyes are full of hatred.

Ji Ze completely thought he was farting, and looked intently at the opposite side, only to hear a loud military horn sound from there, and the two wings of the Ming army quickly stretched out to form a wide horizontal formation.

This kind of array speed is something that Yoshizawa Bright has never seen before!

The shogunate army made a formation for more than an hour, and the Ming army completed it in just a few moments!

Tokugawa Mitsuyoshi, who had been encouraged in front of the battle, looked back and saw a dazzling bayonet stirring at the same frequency, and he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable nervousness in his heart. Some time ago, Ito Joko, a former official of the shogunate, sent a letter and offered him quite favorable conditions, trying to persuade him to defect from the shogunate and defect to the more promising Ming Dynasty.

Seeing the conditions for surrender, Tokugawa Mitsuyoshi was almost moved, but he thought about it, he was a descendant of the Tokugawa clan, how could he betray his family, isn't this nonsense!

The tens of thousands of Ming troops who had completed the formation, the soldiers of the entire front stood solemnly and silently, even if they were two miles away, they could still feel the solemn aura emitted by the army, and even Sakai Tadakatsu of the Chinese army felt frightened.

Sakai Tadashi stared blankly at the red sea, and his heart shook: "Is this the main force of the Ming army?" ”

His eyes flashed with a hint of confusion, and he couldn't figure it out, why did the Shogunate Army also use the methods of the Ming Army to train, and there was such a gap in momentum?

Not only Sakai Tadakatsu, but also the major names of the shogunate who were also on Nangong Mountain at this time were speechless in surprise.

Such an enemy, it's hard to shake!

"Hooray!"

"Hooray!"

Suddenly, a cheer of mountains and tsunamis came from afar, and Sakai Tadashi saw a huge banner slowly coming from the Ming army's large array.

The banner was very large and eye-catching, red all over, and it seemed to have a dragon swimming on it, and the front flag was carried on a tall black chariot, drawn by eight healthy horses.

Under the banner of the dragon, a warrior in golden armor stood faintly, holding a sword in his hand.

Thousands of cavalry accompanied the dragon banner and chariots, slowly approaching the passage of the Chinese army, and everywhere they passed was an overwhelming sound of long live.

"The pomp of the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom is really fucking big!"

In the shogunate army, Captain Yagyu next to Yoshizawa Bright couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

Yoshizawa could see from the afterglow that his boss's face seemed to be twitching, and his voice was very abnormal, with a trill.

Ji Ze himself was no better, and from the gap in the array in front of him, he faintly saw the swaggering and eye-catching bright red dragon flag on the opposite side, showing his teeth and claws vigorously.

Suddenly, a loud song sounded in the large array of the Ming army, and the chorus of tens of thousands of people swept across the battlefield of Guanyuan like an overwhelming force.

Yoshizawa was born in a small merchant family, his father did business with the Ming people, and he also knew some Chinese, and he understood the meaning from the song on the other side.

"Brilliant and bright, the sun, the moon, mountains and rivers, bustling and prosperous, the sky is full of all countries."

"The great emperor, the eight wives, the sun and the moon shine together, and the glory lasts for ten thousand years!"

The singing was impassioned and surging, and Yoshizawa looked at it in amazement, feeling the brazen spirit of a strong country!

At this time, he faintly felt envy in his heart, why wasn't he born in the Ming Kingdom? Be one of them?

With such a strong country and such a strong army to protect you, what can't you do? Why worry about groveling and homeless every day, reminding the beating to live?
