Wu Daofu made such a fuss, not for anything else, in fact, it was to force King Shangning to turn his face with the Shimazu clan of Satsuma, so that they could attack Amami Oshima without worries.

Don't look at Wu Daofu and their Hongtang in the naval battle, they have already won a decisive victory, but if they really want to take Amami Oshima, there will be many unexpected factors.

It's been two months, and the Shimazu family in Satsuma has already known the situation on the Ryukyu side, because the troops in their hands are stationed in various places, they can't draw too much for a while, and the Shimazu family has only sent hundreds of troops that can be mobilized first.

But now, Wu Daofu and they have no sources, and it is unknown whether the Shimazu family will send troops to help, and how many people will be sent.

And Wu Daofu and his only 3,000 team members, if they want to fight Amami Oshima, which is well prepared and well-manned, it is not comparable to the other four small islands. In the end, it is likely to be a protracted battle, and there are too many variables in between, and Wu Daofu can't let a wavering helper with an unknown location stay behind, even if this helper takes the initiative to find them.

When the representative of the Satsuma royal family in the Ryukyus royal family, who had long been monitored by the guards of the Ryukyu royal family in Shuri Castle, was directly killed by Shang Zhong, it also meant that King Shang Ning no longer had room to be with the head rat of the Shimazu family in Satsuma.

When Wu Daofu received information from inside the city outside the city, a slight sneer appeared on his face, and then he retreated, and was busy setting up camp with his subordinates, waiting for Shang Zhong's arrival.

There is no need for Shang Zhong to declare, Wu Daofu himself did not think that he would bring people into the city, this attitude was just to force King Shang Ning to make a choice, and King Shang Ning was not stupid, where could Wu Daofu and their group of pirates enter their capital, it was too late to guard against them at this time.

However, it was perfectly feasible for him to bring a few men into the city and ask the king of Shangning for some benefits. Under the guise of burying the fallen soldiers and showing compassion to their families, Wu Daofu set up a carriage and horses to rely on King Shangning, and in addition to the conditions he had negotiated with Hong Tang, he grabbed an additional 10,000 taels of gold from King Shangning.

Of course, these are all tricks given by Li Tianyang and them in advance, and after the war has started, the choice of position has been decided, so it is impossible not to play this game with them Hongtang in advance. It can even be said that they Hongtang can stop playing this game at any time and turn around and leave, but King Shangning, who had just killed the envoy of Satsuma, had no way to retreat, and could only fight with the Shimazu family to the end, either you die or I live.

Therefore, he King Shangning needs Wu Daofu and their existence more than before, to help them conquer Amami Island, and the most important moment is to destroy the living force of the Shimazu family on the island, as for whether they can hold the Amami Goshima Island in the end, it is all secondary.

At this time, even if Wu Daofu and the others made all kinds of demands again, as long as it was not too excessive, they could only pinch their noses and admit it.

Fortunately, Wu Daofu is not a faithless and unrighteous person, this time Wu Daofu regretted asking for more than 10,000 taels of gold, firstly, to let King Shangning know who they need to rely on at this time, lest they really have other crooked minds at the critical moment, and secondly, their losses in the naval battle this time are indeed too great, and when the war returns, Li Tianyang them to compensate the fallen soldiers and seriously injured and disabled team members, and the cost is a large amount, Wu Daofu also wants to help Li Tianyang them share some burden.

Finally straightening out the results of the battle here, Wu Daofu sold more than 20 sea ships that they had collected and could not use to King Shang Ning, not only harvesting tens of thousands of taels of silver again, but also the buyer King Shang Ning also smiled, not feeling that he had spent this money unjustly.

Even in the end, King Shangning also found Wu Daofu and wanted to buy the less than 800 pirates from him, hoping to quickly make up for the military strength that had been suppressed by the Japanese people over the years by buying the hearts of the pirates in a short period of time.

But this request was rejected by Wu Daofu, not that Wu Daofu was worried that after King Shangning absorbed this group of pirates, he would have other thoughts and part ways with Hong Tang. But at this time, the main island of Ryukyu, which is the logistics supply base of Hongtang, cannot make mistakes, and Wu Daofu and they don't know how many of these pirates have other intentions.

In the end, Wu Daofu promised that after attacking Amami Island and exterminating the people of Kayama Hisada, they could hand over a certain number of captives to King Shangning for their training.

Soon after, Wu Daofu and his men reinforcedly replenished Shuri Castle, and then quickly returned to the waters outside Amami Island, preparing for the next attack on the island.

The twenty Hongtang warships left behind, in the past few days when Wu Daofu and they went back to replenish, relied on water ghost diving to get rid of several sunken ships that prevented their brigade of warships from entering the dock of Amami Island.

And the birch mountain Jiugao and them, except for reinforcing the fortifications while using artillery fire to drive away and deter the Hongtang reconnaissance ship that was too close, they did not have any other radical actions, even when the Hongtang warship jointly dragged the shipwreck on the seabed, they did not send more than 30 warships on the pier to harass it, so that the Hongtang team members completed the operation very easily.

Birch Mountain Hisataka also knows that in a naval battle a few days ago, their coalition army was defeated and defeated, not only did the great reputation that the Japanese people have accumulated over the years be defeated by Hong Tang, so that the pirates below have a little more other thoughts, and he notified the main force of the Japanese people to retreat in advance, and then pretended to issue a retreat order to the pirates, although these pirates with heavy losses did not have the courage to make it clear to him, but inevitably, the pirates must have many complaints in his heart as a Japanese general.

The inside is unstable, and the outside doesn't know if most of this Hongtang is really leaving, or if it is setting up another set in the secret, and Hisashi Hisa, who can no longer send a reconnaissance speedboat to investigate the sea situation, can only take a group of people to pretend to be grandsons, nest on this Amami Island, and be the shrinking turtle.

Fortunately, they still have hope for Kayama Hisaka, and according to the letters brought by the first batch of reinforcements before, the second batch of reinforcements mobilized by the lord Shimazu Iehisa will also arrive in the Amami Sea in ten days at the latest.

And this time, the team mobilized by the Shimazu clan will also be as many as 3,000, which is also an important reason why the second batch of reinforcements is late.

As long as Hisataka Kayama can hold out on to the island for a maximum of ten days, then their Shimazu clan has every chance of turning defeat into victory.

You say, it's not going to explode today??
