In order to avoid revealing their identities and causing unnecessary trouble to the Qiongzhou battalion, the soldiers of the Qiongzhou battalion who came to Zhejiang with the Japanese samurai this time had only one platoon, that is, fifty people. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Their existence is more of a symbolic meaning, if the Japanese want to do something, in front of two thousand samurai who are very experienced in battle, there is no essential difference between fifty and one or two hundred, these guys are not like the muddy guards of the guard, a group of lambs to the slaughter.

Surrounded by nearly a thousand samurai of the Satsuma clan with ill intentions, a platoon of soldiers is like a flat boat in the sea, which can be swallowed by a single wave.

However, these soldiers were not intimidated by the delicate situation in front of them, they clenched their rifles tightly and stared at the Japanese samurai on the periphery, and did not lose ground in momentum because of the absolute inferiority in numbers. From the platoon commander to the soldiers, there is only one thought, if this group of Japanese people really wants to turn against the water, even if they are too close to reload, they will have to pull a few cushions to meet the king of Hades together with bayonets.

Shimazu Mitsuhisa's palm holding the hilt of the knife was already sweating, and there was a war between heaven and man in his heart, and he didn't know how to choose. If he followed his heart, he was unwilling to submit to a Ming general, and the reason why he was very respectful in front of Xia Nan and his subordinates was because he was afraid of the strength of the other party.

But after entering Zhejiang, in the face of the invincible records of the Ming army in various places, he began to doubt whether his choice to give in to the Qiongzhou battalion was correct - the opponents he faced were all officers and soldiers of the Ming State, and the Qiongzhou battalion was just the same officers and soldiers, even if they had huge ships and cannons, what decided the fate of a country was still a battle with real swords and guns on land.

The platoon commander who rebuked him coldly reminded: "According to our general's plan, most of us are already on the way to Zhejiang with the fleet and army at this moment, before you make any decisions, you must first think about how to withstand the thunderous wrath of our general!" ”

Hearing the words "Thunder's Fury", Shimazu Mitsuhisa suddenly sobered up a lot. He immediately thought of the overwhelming cannonballs that had almost razed Tsurumaru Castle to the ground, and he couldn't help but shudder.

What the hell was you thinking? The reality is far crueler than the ideal, even if the land battle can compete with the Qiongzhou battalion without falling behind, and even overpowering the other party, but against their sea monsters, there is no chance of winning at all. If you anger the other party, swing the huge fleet outside Tsurumaru Castle, and bombard Tsurumaru Castle again, whether it is the castle tower or the houses of the samurai and the common people, they will be turned into powder.

Thinking of this, Shimazu Mitsuhisa broke out in a cold sweat, he quickly judged the situation, no matter what, until a way to deal with the strong ships and artillery, the Qiongzhou battalion still could not be offended. He immediately put on a smiling face, nodded and said, "Your Excellency is too worried, Guangjiu doesn't mean anything disrespectful, just thinking about how to restrain these ronins." After all, they are not the direct subordinates of my Satsuma Domain, so it is inevitable that they will be a little unruly, and the current situation is not the original intention of Guangjiu. ”

The platoon commander secretly breathed a sigh of relief, although he was determined to die with the Japanese people, but if he could survive, who would want to die? Looking at the other party's posture, it seems that he has moved some thoughts that he shouldn't have, but after weighing the pros and cons, he chose to surrender again.

Since things have taken a turn for the better, he also softened his tone: "Since His Excellency Shimazu intends to restrain his subordinates, we are also willing to cooperate and end the turmoil in the city as soon as possible." I believe that the general does not want to see this scene. ”

Shimazu Mitsuhisa nodded and bowed: "Haiyi, Mitsuhisa immediately sent people to restrain them everywhere in the city." ”

"Our people will go with us."

Shimazu Mitsuhisa finally chose to continue to forbear, and according to the requirements of the Qiongzhou battalion, he sent people to various streets and alleys in the city to dissuade this group of ronins who were carried away by desire.

However, the effect of this dissuasion is not ideal. Shimazu Mitsuhisa and the samurai of the Satsuma Domain under his command were already ready to move, and they wanted to take advantage of the destruction of the city to loot, and by the way, they found a few beautiful Ming women to masturbate a few times, and now they have to restrain their desires, but they still have to dissuade others, so they are naturally reluctant. The ronin is not willing to accept such "stupid dissuasion", and some of them are in a hurry, and even pull out knives to violently confront their temporary employers.

The combination of factors led to the failure of dissuasion, and the unrest in the city continued. But it has had a little effect, at least the ronins have scruples, they don't kill people indiscriminately, and the focus has shifted to robbing silver and women. Although the people in the city were ruined, and the eldest girls and little daughters-in-law of each family also suffered, they finally saved their lives.

From the evening, the people who had been tortured took advantage of the darkness to carefully avoid the robbers roaming the streets and alleys, and took refuge in the city through the various gates. However, at this time, most of the people who left were ordinary or even poor people, and the large families were distressed about the silver in the cellar, the land deed, and the antiques, calligraphy and paintings in the house, and they were reluctant to leave, and still struggled to stay at home, hoping that the would-be would-be wouldn't leave by themselves after the Japanese robbed a lot of money.

Shimazu Mitsuhisa didn't bother to care about the people who fled from the city, so he took his men straight to the prefectural government and the prefect's yamen - since he was not allowed to participate in the robbery of civilians, he changed his target and went to rob the officials. They successively found the county treasury and the government treasury, ready to make a fortune. At this time, the soldiers guarding the treasury had already fled, and without the key, the samurai directly cut the iron lock outside the gate and rushed into the warehouse.

However, the situation in the official treasury made Shimazu Mitsuhisa cry out unlucky, it turned out that in the treasury except for moldy silk, rusty blades, piles of old grain, gold and silver were not served.

Looking at these rags, Shimazu Mitsuhisa was furious, the officials in Jiangnan were so corrupt that they emptied the official treasury and didn't leave him at all, which is unbearable! He carried a knife and led people directly to the prefect's yamen, cut down several officials at the door who were like a great enemy, and found the prefect Xu Shiluan, who secretly wrote a letter for help in the study, and vented all the grievances that he had nowhere to vent on this prefect, and scolded: "You are a corrupt official, what about the money you are corrupt? Hurry up and hand it over, you can consider giving you a whole corpse ......"

Xu Shiluan saw that the Japanese had finally killed the prefect's yamen, and lamented in his heart that he couldn't avoid the disaster, and begged for mercy: "The money is in the study...... I can give all my possessions and beg to spare my life. ”

Shimazu Mitsuhisa was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, and cut off Xu Shiluan's head with a knife, letting blood splash everywhere, and then said coldly to the corpse: "It's enough to know where your money is hidden, I don't need you to give it, I'll take it myself." ”
