Chongzhen Chat Group

The sun shines on the sea, the blue waves ripple, and from time to time there are schools of fish escaping out of the sea. On the coastline not far away, there are groups of seabirds foraging for food. Obviously, there should be very few people here, so this scene can be seen.

However, this natural and harmonious scene was eventually broken by a ship.

Anyone with a little bit of discernment can see that this ship has been sailing on the sea for a long time. Or because they saw the coastline, someone on the boat shouted, and immediately many people ran out of the cabin.

As soon as they saw land, these bearded men all became excited, kneeling down and muttering to themselves, or shouting.

"Here, here, we are finally here!"

"It's a narrow escape from death. I didn't expect that our lives would be long enough!"

"..."

While everyone was excited, they heard some movement behind them. They turned their heads to look, and suddenly they all shouted respectfully.

"Master, we are finally here!"

"We don't have to worry anymore, the boss!"

"Yes, no matter how powerful the imperial navy is, it is impossible to catch up, haha!"

"..."

The big boss in their mouth is none other than the great pirate Liu Xiang.

There were hundreds of ships and thousands of men, but in the end only this one ship was left. But at this time, they were obviously very happy. They had to admire the master for being able to escape under such circumstances. He is so cunning enough to give himself a backup plan!

But now they admire the big boss, not because of this, but because of the big boss's decisive decision. They felt that no matter where they were hiding in Nanyang, or even the Little Western Ocean, it was not safe, so they went directly across the ocean to the Spanish territory.

Originally they thought that they would probably die on the sea, but they didn't expect that they were lucky enough to see land alive despite only hearing about this route.

Liu Xiang was also very excited. Looking at the coastline in the distance, his heart was suddenly filled with pride and ambition. Even if he didn't die, it seemed that God was still favoring him!

He looked around at his men and immediately shouted loudly: "You are all my good brothers, Liu Xiang! We share life and death, and we will share hardships and blessings in the future! There is no way Zheng Yiguan, that bitch, can come after him again, and neither of us will There may be another traitor like Liang Xiaozhen! From now on, I, Liu Xiang, will definitely take you to build a new territory here. From now on, all brothers will follow me, Liu Xiang, to eat well and drink spicy food!"

Hearing this, his men were also excited. Although there are Spaniards here, they are not afraid at all.

The Spanish could not defeat the Dutch; but the huge Dutch fleet was destroyed before their eyes. This experience made them feel that Xiyi was actually just like that.

Another point is that they feel that after escaping from Nanyang and almost dying, they can reach here alive. They must be blessed by Mazu. With such luck, are they afraid that they won't be able to stand here?

Thinking this, they all roared.

"Yes, with the boss, the popular one, the spicy drinker!"

"We share blessings and share hardships, and we must never be traitors!"

"..."

From now on, there is no need to worry about the court's pursuit and suppression. As long as there are not many Spaniards to deal with, the future will be bright!

But they don't know Emperor Chongzhen's plan, otherwise all of them will be desperate! Of course, just because they don’t know now doesn’t mean they won’t know in the future. At this time, they can be happier every day!

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen naturally did not know that Liu Xiang did not sink to the bottom of the sea during the Battle of Manila Bay, but risked his life and ran to the other side of the Pacific Ocean. At this time, he was patrolling the chat group to see what was reported from various places.

The latest military reform started with the millions of border troops on the nine sides. In this military reform, even if there are difficulties or difficult to explain, you can get the correct explanation from the court in real time through the chat group, and it cannot be completed within an hour and a half. Emperor Chongzhen estimated that it would not be until next year at least.

One thing he didn't expect was that several famous generals in the Beijing camp would actually come up with the idea of ​​earning military glory. He supported this, and this was originally his purpose in conferring knighthoods.

What surprised him the most was that even that little kid Li Dingguo wanted to go to war. But speaking of it, his military experience does not match his age. His training over the past few years has made him far better than ordinary generals.

It's funny to think about it. If Zheng Chenggong is thrown away with Li Dingguo, these two big guys in history have now both changed their own destiny. Zheng Chenggong admired Li Dingguo so much that he felt everything Li Dingguo said was right.

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but feel funny again. He heard from the factory guard that Zheng Zhilong had been awarded the title of Nanyang Bo, and he was very happy to go see his son. He already had a title, but not a Jinshi degree yet. He hoped that his son could take the exam and become a Jinshi degree. Unexpectedly, his son actually contradicted him, saying that he wanted to learn from Li Dingguo. He had ambitions in all directions, to fight and protect the Ming Dynasty.

I heard that Zheng Zhilong figured it out after being annoyed for a day. Encourage Zheng Chenggong to follow his path in the future and repay the navy. After all, most of the people in the navy are his subordinates, and they have the widest connections. From this, Li Dingguo and Zheng Chenggong hid under a peach tree, clapped their hands and swore an oath, saying that one would be the Army Commander-in-Chief and the other would be the Navy Commander-in-Chief. They wanted to compete to see who could become the first. .

Emperor Chongzhen felt funny when he thought of this. You are a little smart, but it is good to be ambitious. Whether you can be the governor depends on whether you can make enough contributions!

Just as he was thinking this, a private message suddenly came through. When he took a closer look, he saw that it was Qian Fugui's regular report that had arrived.

On the Japanese side, Emperor Chongzhen has naturally been paying attention. Today's Japanese country is becoming more and more chaotic.

The Tokugawa shogunate's army scraped almost three feet of the ground on Kyushu Island and could not gather enough food. In the end, they did not capture all the cities on Kyushu Island and simply retreated to Honshu before the cold Siberian wind arrived.

Even so, the coalition forces on Kyushu Island are not having a good time. The remaining coalition forces were mainly Catholic troops. They were besieged in the city for several months, and there was actually very little food left. After finally waiting until the Tokugawa Shogunate's army could no longer hold on and retreated, they found that everything that could be eaten outside the city had been eaten up by the Tokugawa Shogunate's army. At this time, we missed the farming season again. Obviously, if we just stayed on Kyushu Island, most people would not survive this winter.

On Honshu Island, the situation is better. The main force of the remnants of the Qing Dynasty is here, and their combat effectiveness is indeed not comparable to that of the same number of dwarf Japanese. After the main stalemate, both sides sent troops to attack the other side's rear. On the side of the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Azige and Hauge all led their troops to plunder the Japanese, doing what they had done in Liaodong.

In addition, the Catholic army also sent people deep behind enemy lines to spread rumors and encourage the Japanese in the state to rebel. At the same time, they also followed Azig and Haug's troops as Japanese traitors. After the Manchu remnants looted it once, they went to pick it up again.

At this time, it can be said that the southern area of ​​Honshu, that is, the area south of Osaka Castle built by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, was basically in ruins due to the war between the two sides. However, major cities such as Osaka were still in the hands of the Tokugawa Shogunate.

"Your Majesty, Dorgon has led his troops to retreat to Hiroshima." Qian Fugui reported in a private chat, "Hauge will also withdraw his troops and return to Hiroshima after knowing the news."

When the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty first invaded Honshu Island, they caught the Tokugawa Shogunate's troops off guard and captured Hiroshima as their base camp on Honshu Island. Previously, the main force went straight to Ishimi Silver Mountain, and Hiroshima became a storage point for grain and supplies for the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, including the supplies plundered by Hauge, Azige and others, were piled here.

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen immediately guessed that after so long, Dorgon must have given up on the Spanish. Therefore, the fight for Shi Jian Yinshan was not that important. On the Iwami Ginzan side, the Tokugawa shogunate had hoarded heavy troops and was in a state of strict defense. As for the siege, it was the shortcoming of the remnants of the Qing Dynasty. Dorgon obviously wanted to maintain his strength and did not want to waste any effort.

It's true to say that there are actually only ten thousand people in the Japanese country who are the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. A little was left on Kyushu Island, and Dodo and three thousand troops were trapped on Shikoku Island. Now on Honshu Island, the battle line is stretched, and the weakness of the Manchu remnants' weak military strength is revealed. If it weren't for the Catholic army helping the emperor, the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty probably wouldn't be able to control so many places.

But relatively speaking, although the population of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was larger than it is now, they once occupied the entire Liaodong, which was much larger than the current territory of the Japanese state. Emperor Chongzhen had reason to believe that Dorgon should be able to solve this problem.

But now he secretly supported Haoge and contained Dorgon's power. After thinking about it, he told Qian Fugui: "If you remind Haoge about the limited military strength, you can suggest that Haoge raise it and organize the Japanese into Japanese people." Eight Banners, fight for them.”

If this is not done, the comprehensive strength of the Tokugawa shogunate will still be reflected after the battle line is lengthened, and the balance of the war is likely to tilt towards the Tokugawa shogunate. If possible, the situation that Emperor Chongzhen most wanted to see in the Japanese war was that the strength of the coalition forces of the remaining Manchus and the strength of the Tokugawa shogunate were about 64. It would be best to destroy the Tokugawa shogunate, and the strength of the remaining Manchus was also The consumption is almost the same. Then he used Qian Fugui to encourage Hauge to seize power, causing the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty to fight among themselves again.

If such a situation occurs, it will be easiest for the Ming Dynasty to capture the Japanese state.

With this in mind, Emperor Chongzhen did not respond to Qian Fugui's promised private chat, but began to convene relevant ministers to see how to help the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. To be precise, help Hauge.

At the same time, in a dilapidated mountain temple less than fifty miles away from Kobe, there were many figures. Suddenly, a horse flew from a distance and quickly entered the mountain temple. Judging from their figures, they were obviously Japanese.

After the knight entered the mountain temple, he heard an angry "cack" sound coming from the temple, and the sound of something being knocked to the ground. Faintly, a voice came out. The masked people guarding outside all turned their heads and glanced, but no one spoke.

There were also masked people in the mountain temple, but the leader, who was about forty or fifty years old, was not masked. He was angry and chattering.

This person is Miyamoto Musashi, who Tokugawa Iemitsu has high hopes for, and is trying to turn things around with him! A famous military strategist in the history of Japan, he was also a swordsman known to future generations! Regarding his story, many movies and TV series were produced in the Japanese Kingdom in later generations, and even a game company developed him specifically to kill the Archer Mage!

At this time, Miyamoto Musashi had not completed the tasks assigned by Tokugawa Iemitsu, and he was also very irritable. Even though he had always emphasized that he should not be swayed by emotions, he was still very angry at this time.

Because, after receiving strict orders from Tokugawa Iemitsu, he led his apprentices into action. His target was naturally set on the Manchu Emperor Dorgon at first. However, Dorgon was closely protected and he had no chance at all.

So, he took his disciples to kill the second most important person in the Qing Dynasty, the emperor's nephew Hauge. But what he didn't expect was that Hauge had to guard against the Dorgon brothers being unfavorable to him, so the protection was very tight and he had no chance to make a move.

After Miyamoto Musashi heard the news, it had been so long since the mission assigned by Tokugawa Iemitsu, even he became impatient. In desperation, he set his target on Azig, who also led the invasion of the rear of the Tokugawa shogunate. But, unfortunately, he still didn't find a chance. Hearing the news, he finally lost his temper.

However, soon another horse came galloping over and told him a piece of news.

This news made the furious Miyamoto Musashi calm down. After thinking for a long time, he suddenly shouted: "Umekawa Maruko-chan!"

A clear and pleasant voice immediately agreed, and a slender masked man immediately knelt in front of Miyamoto Musashi.

"Although Umekawa Shoi committed suicide, whether your family will let him go depends on your performance. Do you understand?" Miyamoto Musashi asked expressionlessly.

This Umekawa meatball didn't hesitate at all, and immediately said "hi" firmly and forcefully.

Seeing that he didn't show any hesitation, Miyamoto Musashi was quite satisfied. So, after some explanations, the people in this dilapidated mountain temple quickly left and disappeared into the distance.

About twenty miles away from here, there is a Japanese town. Although it is a bit remote, the Japanese traitors finally came to find them with Jianlu. The sound of horse hooves rumbled and the Jianlu roared across the town. They did the same thing they did in Liaodong, in the Gyeonggi region, and in other parts of the Japanese country. They started burning, killing and looting.

However, in the best house in the town, Jianlu obviously encountered strong resistance. Even with Jianlu's strength, several Japanese guards were killed in one of the courtyards. When other Jianlu saw it, they became even more excited. They immediately surrounded the place and stepped up their offensive, because according to their experience, there should be big fish here.

Thanks to anniexie for the 500 starting coin reward! ps: Last month, I thought that if I took a break this month, I should at least be able to save some manuscripts. As a result, I can only laugh at myself.
