The full name of Kushikino is Shilai Kushikino, but for most Chinese who do not recognize Japanese, they only recognize the last three names written in Chinese, Kushikino. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Therefore, Zheng Sen did not translate it specifically, but just called Kushikino directly.

For the Satsuma clan, Kushikino was a big town. There are at least several workshops and dozens of shops, which can buy enough for breakfast, lunch and dinner for thousands of people.

The leader of the team, Hisamori Kayama, was very confident in this trip, and after placing the people and horses in Kushikino, he set off to Chinatown to investigate the news. He didn't realize that he had been snooped on by the occasional coincidence.

It's not early, and it's even more difficult to travel at night.

If it weren't for the fact that he didn't want to be discovered by the Akito, Kayama Kumori wouldn't even travel in the night. It's troublesome to go out and troublesome to come back. Tired from tossing, Hisamu Kayama fell asleep with his pillow knocked on his head, but he just instructed the samurai beside him to wake him up at dawn in the early morning.

In the wee hours of the morning, for these merchants who don't need to farm, it's still time to sleep with their heads covered.

This is also the time when people let their guard down the most.

"However, there is a time when people can let their guard down more than the early hours of the morning......," Zheng Sen took a deep breath, recalling an action he had heard at Nanjing Normal School.

Daming's various efficient plans are starting a plan for self-study at night.

After all, the time during the day is limited, and for teachers and students with unlimited research goals, it is natural to make the most of the time at night.

Candles soon became popular, and all kinds of oil lamps appeared.

But then another problem popped up: night blindness.

For ordinary people, night blindness may not be known for the rest of their lives. But for teachers, it is a matter of research. Although Nanjing Normal School focuses on teacher training, it also has a certain degree of science and engineering research strength. In fact. None of them needed much research to find a ready-made solution.

In order to solve night blindness, the Ming army specially purchased a large number of pork livers to supplement the nutrition of soldiers.

Zheng is not short of money, and Japanese meat is even cheaper, making it easy to buy. So far, more than 500 people left behind have solved the problem of night blindness.

Compared with the Japanese army, this is obviously a great advantage.

In the midst of the stars and the moon, the whole team of 500 people walked out of Chinatown.

Their departure is quiet, and what they do is destined to have far-reaching consequences.

Walking out of the warm room, the cold air calmed Zheng Sen down a little. The oncoming cold wind beat on his face, and a voice came out: It's too late to retreat now.

After all, it is not trivial to take the initiative to attack a Japanese town in a foreign country.

Yang Chaodong also seemed to be in such a mood, and after the enthusiasm, he was a little worried.

Zheng Sen also noticed this, he looked around, looked at the expectant eyes of everyone, and knew that it was time for him to act: "When I was in Nanjing, I heard that His Majesty said a word. Fight with one punch, lest a hundred punches come. The Japanese were destined to be unkind to us from the moment we set foot in this land. ”

"Alas, in fact, when I came here earlier, when I was doing business, the Japanese looked quite amiable." Yang Chaodong thought about the repeated provocations of the Japanese, and he was a little sentimental for the first time. It seems to be a catharsis for some warmth that is about to be covered by the killing.

"Tourists who come and spend money are welcome, no matter where they are. But...... Once you're settled, you're going to have to compete with them for a small amount of resources. At the very least, our arrival has raised the price of rice, which is already expensive, to a point that has angered many samurai. They were already unemployed, and many could not afford to eat rice, so they had to sell their katana, which they regarded as their lives. Although they are not caused by their unemployment, we are the best backers for many careerists. Zheng Sen's words were a little witty, but everyone was heavy when they heard it.

Lin Feng understood Zheng Sen's thoughts, as a general, he was not afraid to say anything bad. In extremely difficult circumstances, it is impractical to blindly preach faith. Sometimes, mourning soldiers are more useful.

"Stretching out the head is a knife, and shrinking the head is also a knife. If the Japanese had not been beaten in the Wanli years, I am afraid that the land of Japan would have been robbed as soon as we entered Japan. Now that the shogun is not in the Satsuma Domain, we are in the weakest position. Now fight a fight, give the Japanese people a long memory, let them remember the defeat in the Wanli period, remember the ability of our Daming Erlang, so that they will no longer dare to hit our attention! Lin Feng said, and then said sadly: "Regardless of whether we betrayed the Ming Dynasty or not, we will always be Chinese sons and daughters, and we are the blood of the Han family." Now in a foreign country, he is destined to fight alone. Everything has to depend on ourselves, and if we win, we will raise our eyebrows and exhale so that the Japanese will not dare to underestimate us Chinese. Lost...... My wife and children are all gone! ”

"Hit! Raise your eyebrows! Yang Chaodong roared, his fists clenched.

Seeing that the morale was available, Zheng Sen rejoiced in his heart, nodded approvingly towards Lin Feng, and said, "Listen to my orders and set off to Kushino!" ”

"Whoa!"

……

Kushikino is a small town, not walled like most Daming cities. The outermost part of the town, the only thing that looked like it was somewhat defensive was a fence.

There used to be a barracks here, but it was vacated when the Satsuma Domain's army shrank in size. Today, it happens to be inhabited by wandering samurai who have come from all over the world.

Huashan Jiushou's ability was even weaker than Zheng Sen thought, and he didn't shout three thousand people in one breath, only more than two thousand. In fact, in order to avoid startling the snakes, Kayama Kumori only secretly gathered more than 300 wandering samurai, as well as more than 1,000 peasants, plus more than 900 people on hand, to crowd the entire Kushikino to the brim.

Fortunately, the barracks were not small. It's not a lot of pressure to fit in so many people.

But in the same way, the appearance of so many people in Kushikino has also become a huge target.

Lin Feng took dozens of elites to act as scouts in advance, and after running around the string of woods, he guessed the approximate number of people and horses, and the footprints around him were very chaotic, and all kinds of flags were floating all over the small square in the barracks.

When the time entered the middle of the night, Lin Feng returned to Zheng Sen's side.

"The target has been determined, and it is in the old barrack......s in the southwest corner of Kushikino," Lin Feng reported the situation to the reporter one by one: "The subordinates grabbed a tongue, and sure enough, the young master guessed correctly, and they came with more than 2,000 people." And that's what the goal is for us! Recently, when the Satsuma clan did not want to move troops at all, even if it were to move towards the Ryukyus, they would not gather on this road...... It's all on Tanegashim! ”

Zheng Sen squinted his eyes, and by the starlight, watched as a group of people entered the predetermined location in batches.

Night is not daylight, and collective combat is very difficult. Although the problem of night blindness was solved, Starlight could barely see clearly, but once the fight started, it would be terrible if it was his own person who fought for a long time.

In particular, most of the Japanese are night blind patients, and when they are too large to disperse, they make the Zheng escort team who attacked at night scramble.

For this reason, in the one-hour interval before the operation, Zheng Sen organized more than 500 people in his hands into 20 small teams, and each of them received the task to divide the area and start the operation.

Now that the destination has arrived, everyone is in place and familiar with the place.

Zheng Sen took a deep breath, looked at the sleeping barracks in the hazy night, and exhaled heavily: "Get ready to do it!" ”

"Yes!" Lin Feng looked a little excited.

On the side, Yang Chaodong fell into calm. He's older and more experienced. Before the war, I looked ahead and looked backwards, but now it has calmed down. This is the quality of a veteran.

Both of them have their own tasks, and they are both key to the key.

Yang Chaodong led his men and horses to rush into the fence, and the long knife in his hand slashed lightly, revealing a huge gap. The rest of the groups were more or less like this, the fence was almost unfortified, and it didn't take much effort to get in.

The people behind Yang Chaodong were carrying large buckets and small bags in their hands, all wrapped in cloth, and their movements were light and did not show a sound.

The rest of the groups were some burying traps, some were presuming small artillery, and some were preparing to set fire, carrying bottles and cans one after another, revealing a full dangerous atmosphere.

Don't look at it, because you have to stay behind, there are only about 400 people who participated in the battle, but this well-commanded level, like an arm, has given Zheng Sen a lot of confidence.

Zheng Sen personally led people to follow Yang Chaodong inside. Behind him, the soldiers carried bags and bags of firewood into the barracks lightly.

When Zheng Sen arrived, the operation had already quietly begun.

More than a dozen members of the escort team, carrying small iron barrels on their backs, entered the barracks.

Not long after, a liquid with a faint foul smell was spilled into the barracks by the convoys.

Yang Chaodong hung a dagger and entered with his heavily armed men, and knocked down a soldier who was out of the night in a row, and then pressed his neck to wipe his neck and killed a Japanese samurai who seemed to be sleepwalking, and the team members carrying small tin buckets came back and stretched out their thumbs one after another.

This is a sign that the operation is going well.

The crowd re-exited like a tidal wave.

Lin Feng also completed his task and saluted Zheng Sen.

Zheng Sen exhaled deeply and said, "Prepare to release the rocket!" ”

……

At the same time, in the barracks, Kashiyama Kumori suddenly woke up.

He was originally very sleepy, but he only slept lightly for a while, but he couldn't sleep at all.

My mind was full of words of discussion with the head of the family. It is said that the Satsuma clan and the Zheng clan are cooperative after all. As a maritime overlord, Zheng has been in business for a long time and has made friends with many people in Japan.

Many people like these merchants from the Ming Kingdom from the bottom of their hearts.

Whether it is still useful or not, there is always something wrong with just taking advantage of the fire to rob.

It's just that in the face of naked interests, everything seems insignificant.

Maybe it's because of some conscience, and Birchama can't sleep for a long time.

This was not uncommon for him, and he simply got up and planned to go out to practice his sword skills.

It's just that he just walked out of the barracks, but he saw a rocket rising into the sky in front of him, falling like a meteor.

It's a fire attack!

But to really complete the fire attack is obviously not a simple rocket can be done, although the ancient house is flammable, but the rocket to ignite is not easy.

The tin bucket just above was filled with the famous Greek fire. This is the secret recipe that Zheng bought from the Ottoman merchants because the firepower of the Daming Navy fleet became more and more ferocious. This Greek fire can burn on the surface of the sea. Kagoshima Chinatown, which was the base camp of the Zheng fleet, was naturally preserved by Greek fire.

But no one thought that the first battle of Greek fire, which was supposed to be powerful at sea, would be fought in Kushikino.

Lin Feng waved his hand lightly, and hundreds of rockets ignited by the fire twist rushed into the barracks.

Hundreds of flames rose into the sky, carrying a raging fire, and rushed into the barracks.

I don't know if the guards are good enough in archery, or if the ignition is set up well enough. After just one round, the fire burst into flames.

Everyone looked over in a daze, and they couldn't help but take a deep breath: "It's started!" ”

"Go your separate ways!" Zheng Sen immediately waved his hand.

In an instant, several people who could speak Japanese immediately shouted, "Let's go to the water!" Come out and put out the fire."

"Let's go out of the water!"

"Fight the fire!"

……

In the middle of the night, the flames rose violently. The fire was raging, and the power of the Greek fire was even more fierce than Zheng Sen had thought. In just an instant, what was originally just a spark was already on fire.

The entire barracks went into flames.

The hot heat wave hit, and the barracks, which had already housed many people, exploded all at once.

Most people wake up from their dreams, where can they react, and before they can put on their clothes, they are buried in the fire.

The fire attack went very well.

Lin Feng and Yang Chaodong both smiled, but at this time, it was a disaster for Huashan Jiushou.

He didn't have time to analyze why a fire suddenly broke out, and the instinct to survive made him rush into the stable quickly, and it was not not his own horse, so he turned over and galloped wildly.

Just when he wanted to rush to the gate of the barracks, he suddenly thought of something, and he actually rode his war horse directly towards the side wall of the barracks.

There is no exit from the wall, so there are no traps.

Sure enough, in the afterglow of Birch Mountain's long-standing guard, I heard a scream at the door.

Birshan's eyes froze, his pupils contracted violently, and he reacted: "This is man-made arson!" It must have been those wise people who did it! ”

He was very annoyed that he had not done a better job of secrecy, and he was very shocked. These Ming people are so bold that they dare to take the initiative to attack.

In the midst of the panic, a thought condensed in the heart of Kayama Jiumori: run out and come back to find a field!

"Oops, somebody's going to run out! Lin Feng, where are the people of Group D, stop him! Zheng Sen was shocked to find that someone had jumped out of the wall.

When Lin Feng heard this, his original joy suddenly froze: "If you want to let go of a person, you are still riding a horse, you must be a general." Group D listens to the order, follow me! ”
