"That's thanks to the antidote elixir given by the lord, otherwise I would still be able to listen to Mr. today?" He Chun said, and he was extremely grateful to Mo Xiaobai in his heart.

At the beginning, the generals worked together to kill the snow monster, and each of them obtained an extremely rare antidote. But he heard that the lord himself did not keep a bottle, and all the antidote made by Doctor Dong was distributed to the soldiers.

If he hadn't had the antidote around when he was poisoned a day ago, He Chun estimated that his corpse would have been cold.

Fortunately, I met the lord.

Seeing that He Chun was about to get up as he spoke, Liu Ye hurriedly held him down: "Remember, the fact that you are not poisoned can only be known to you and me in Seoul, even if there is no one in the house, you must always keep a disguise." ”

"Then you can't suffocate me? And that Shen Weijing, I see that he is in a trance, why don't you tell him the truth? ”

"No need, this person has a quick eye and a quick mouth, and it is very easy to expose the truth, so it is better to let him believe it, so that he can understand that although he has the backing of the Ming Dynasty, he may not be able to escape in the territory of the Japanese people."

Liu Ye has been by Guo Jia's side for a while, and his level of knowledge is also steadily improving. Shen Weijing is the kind of pure villain, once the Japanese dare to threaten his life, it will inevitably be doubly difficult in the negotiations.

Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, at least the attention of the Ukita Hideya will be drawn to this matter, and it is unlikely that they will pay attention to the movements of the Great Ming Sailor thousands of miles away.

By the time the Ukita Hideya reacts, I'm afraid that most of the lord's naval battle plan should be implemented.

………

Tsushima Island, located between Korea and the Japanese Kingdom.

The northwestern part of the sea is known as the Korean Strait, while the southeastern part of the strait belongs to the Tsushima Strait.

Dozens of seagoing vessels sailed from south to north, deliberately avoiding the eastern seas, preferring to stay adrift at sea for a day or two.

"Jiaming, do you know about the battle between the Nine Ghost Army and the Korean Navy Division not long ago?"

On the main ship of this fleet, there were two Japanese generals standing side by side on the first class, and one of them, a Japanese general with a mustache, said in a deep voice: "It is a shame for us that the ironclad ships that were omnipotent in the sea at the beginning could not even resist the Korean sailors. ”

"The 'Nippon Maru' is already the largest warship we have, and it is no longer inferior to the Korean warships in terms of size, but after all, our warships have not placed too many artillery pieces and cannot give the most favorable blow to the Korean navy."

Yoshiaki Kato, a member of the same clan as the commander of the Second Army, Kiyomasa Kato, served as the Navy's Zuo Masuke at this time, specializing in the naval clearance of the remnants of the Korean naval division.

It was precisely because he had already fought with the remnants of the Korean sailors that he had a systematic understanding of Yi Sunsin and the opponent's sailors, and he also found the biggest flaw of his own warships.

Lack of guns!

Of the hundreds of large and small warships, less than ten were equipped with artillery, more than half of which were five guns, and only three large ships were equipped with eight guns.

There were no artillery, and the range of the iron guns was extremely short.

In the face of Yi Sunsin's suicidal attack, the Japanese fleet was often powerless.

"Could it be that future naval warfare must be based on the development of artillery? Is the samurai's fighting and bravery about to be thrown into the sea? On Kato's side, Yasuharu Wakisaka touched his mustache unwillingly, as a general who accepted the samurai inheritance of the Warring States Period, he believed in the katana in his hand.

"Iron armor and heavy artillery must become a sharp weapon to dominate naval warfare."

Kato Yoshiaki nodded heavily, and then exhaled: "We must win this battle, and only if we win will we have a chance to redevelop a more powerful sailor." At that time, these old things with broken wood can be dismantled and burned as firewood. ”

Although Wakisaka Yasuharu was depressed, he had to nod.

Those who dragged the old thing and didn't let go had already been beaten into the bottom of the sea by Yi Sunsin to feed the sharks.

After being silent for a long time, Wakisaka Yasuji said again: "The North Korean sailors have always imitated the Ming Dynasty's system, and the North Korean sailors alone are so difficult, what will the Ming sailors look like?" ”

"Trust me, you won't want to know."

Kato smiled when he heard this, and with the current naval combat strength of the Wa Kingdom, compared with the Ming army, which was said to be loaded with at least ten cannons, it was undoubtedly boring for himself.

Fortunately, the Daming Sailor has not had any signs of long-distance sailing activities for a long time, so he doesn't have to worry about it.

But at the moment when his words fell, the watchout standard-bearer at the height of the warship suddenly made a move, and after the commanding standard-bearer below saw it, he immediately walked to the two generals:

"General, there is an unknown black spot in the northwest direction."

"What? Unidentified black spots? Kato Yoshiaki glared at hearing this, and said, "How far are we from Geoje Island?" ”

"My lord, that's not Geoje Island."

The standard-bearer shook his head when he heard this, and when he looked up again, he found that his companion on top had changed his flag again.

This time he doesn't need to paraphrase it again, Kato has already seen it clearly.

The unidentified black dot is approaching and will move.

"Ships approaching, North Koreans?"

"No, it is impossible for North Korea to send a fleet from the east, they have long since lost a fleet in Jeolla Province."

"Not from North Korea? Could it be? ”

Several question marks flashed through his mind in a row, and Yoshiaki Kato suddenly realized a terrible truth.

The opponent he least wanted to face, the Great Ming Sailor, came.

"Quick, tell the story, all the fleets are moving forward at full speed."

"The left and right teams of Li Ji were scattered, one went to Geoje Island, and the other went directly to Busan."

Kato Yoshiaki reacted quickly, and after finishing speaking, he looked at Wakisaka Yasuji: "Now please lead a fleet to leave first, and I will try my best to deal with the invading sailors." ”

"How do you know it's a sailor?"

"In addition to the Daming Water Division, does North Korea dare to send a caravan to this side?"

After hearing this, Wakisaka Yasuji's face changed: "The Daming Water Master was also involved?" Why didn't there be any signs before? ”

"Now is not the time to talk, you have to leave."

"Well, well, I'll take a fleet first." Yasuharu Wakisaka gritted his teeth and immediately turned around and prepared to take a small boat to another warship to the east.

When he left by boat, the 'black dot' in the flag bearer's mouth was finally able to see his true face.

It is the ships of the sailors flying the Ming banner high!

"That's?"

Standing at the highest point, the standard-bearer also noticed a few more small black dots approaching rapidly.

This time it's not warships, it's artillery.

Is the Ming army crazy?

It's still hundreds of miles away, and it can even be fired?

Do you want to use this to scare us?

The standard-bearer, who had never really seen an artillery battle at sea, hated to understand the behavior of the Ming army, so he even slowed down the flag for a few seconds.

A few seconds of effort, just a blink of an eye.

When he delivered the news to the deck, the Ming cannon was already overhead.

"How is that possible?"

"Daming's warship can shoot such a long artillery?"

Kato was stunned at first, then suddenly woke up and shouted: "Lie down, lie down and dodge!" ”

It's just that it's too late for him to say it now, and seven or eight big iron balls fell from the sky and smashed into the sea with a 'boom', and in an instant, three huge waves crashed up, shaking the warship.

Just as Kato was desperately clutching the mast so that he didn't let himself fall, in the Daming warship thousands of kilometers away, 4321 was full of excitement on his face, urging and asking, "Did you hit?" Did I hit? ”
