Chapter 1692 Kill move?
As the Tokugawa shogunate expressed its willingness to surrender, all the shogunate troops in various places temporarily stopped resisting.

The National Defense Forces from all walks of life began to speed up their march, and successively took over many sites.

"At present, no main force of the shogunate army has surrendered. It can be judged that their surrender is definitely a fake surrender."

On the way to Edo, Long Zuguang reported the summarized situation to Zuo Menggeng.

When the people around heard this situation, they let go of their joy and realized that Zuo Menggeng's guess was right.

If it is a sincere surrender, it will inevitably order the army to lay down its weapons and accept the management of the National Defense Forces.

But the National Defense Army marched all the way, and only three or two kittens were collected, and the large number of shogunate troops disappeared.

"Where is Division No. 12?"

"We've arrived at Koriyama."

"Tell them not to slack off, rush to Utsunomiya immediately, and prepare for a strong attack. After defeating Utsunomiya, there is no need to wait for orders, just rush to Edo."

Zuo Menggeng's face was stern, and the orders he gave were merciless.

From the very beginning, he didn't believe that the Tokugawa shogunate really surrendered, and he was afraid that the troops below would become slack because of this, so he kept pushing.

"How is the No.11 division?"

"Deputy Commander Amakusa Tokisada personally sits in the town and has never stopped chasing. The latest report is that they have caught up with Mori Tsunamoto in Okayama. Another unexpected harvest is that Mori Mitsuhiro is also in the city. Deputy Amakusa Tokisada The commander-in-chief ordered the attack on the spot, without any intention of persuading surrender."

Zuo Menggeng nodded in satisfaction.

"This kid is the one who understands the most. He has reached this level, and keeping these old forces is purely to cause trouble for himself."

Everyone followed and praised, and at the same time, they had a score in their hearts.

It seems that Amakusa Shizhen has a high status in Zuo Menggeng's mind, and he must have a bright future in the future, so he must be treated with care.

The same is true.

Although Amakusa Tokisada was appointed as the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eastern Strategic Group this time, with full authority to command the army to fight, but his identity is not a soldier.

This means that in the future, he will definitely have a wider space to display.

As the distance from Edo got closer, everyone became more and more nervous and busy.

Only one guy is the most laid back.

"Second from the left, don't worry, with me here, you will be safe."

Zhang Haogu is very retro, dressed in Taoist robes, waving a folding fan, pretending to be a romantic talent.

Zuo Menggeng had a headache for his brazen words.

"Don't worry about me. Edo is the ruling center of the shogunate, and the scenery is different. You finally came here once, and you can enjoy it before the big war."

He looked at Qiao Feng again.

"You have nothing to do, protect our young master Zhang."

Qiao Feng was on vacation, and managed to survive for a few days, but Zhang Haogula, who wanted to join in the fun, took him and ran to Dongyang Province.

Qiao Feng is rigid and upright, and Zhang Haogu, who is lively and unrestrained, is completely two extremes.If possible, he really didn't want to get together with Young Master Zhang.

But given Zhang Haogu's status and Zuo Menggeng's order, he had no choice but to hold his nose and agree.

The army was mighty and overwhelming, and soon reached Edo Bay.

Looking at the warships covering the sea, all the Dongying people felt desperate.

This kind of power can completely destroy the world, how can manpower be able to resist it?
The destruction of Japan seems inevitable.

Lin Luoshan came again.

Looking at the battleship like the sea of ​​clouds, he became more and more submissive.

"General Ooku has already arranged the surrender ceremony, please His Majesty, for the sake of the shogunate's remorse, spare the innocent people of Japan."

Zuo Menggeng deliberately stimulated him.

"From now on, there will be no more talk of Japan, only the province of Japan. The people here will also end the difficulties you have given under the care of the empire."

Lin Luoshan's inner anger rose, and his appearance became more servile.

"Thank you for your majesty's mercy, I will let you lead the way for your majesty."

Zuo Menggeng didn't move like a mountain, but waved his hand.

The East China Sea Fleet and the Second Marine Division moved forward immediately, and under the panicked eyes of the Dongying people, seized all the key points.

Ancient No. [-] High School also knew that the matter was of great importance, and did not dare to neglect in the slightest.

After landing, a detailed inspection was carried out on the surrender venue, and all irrelevant people were cleared away.

Not only that, he also took control of Tokugawa Iemitsu and others, and ordered Tokugawa Iemitsu to issue orders to Toshikatsu Doi and Tadakatsu Sakai, who were still leading the army, to come back to participate in the surrender ceremony. The troops led by them laid down their arms.

The acting has come to this point, Tokugawa Iemitsu had no choice but to follow suit.

Seeing the order after order stamped with his own seal being sent out, Tokugawa Iemitsu was very skeptical, would his plan really have the possibility of success?

The corresponding situation was reported to Zuo Menggeng, and he quickly made a judgment.

"We can't really wait for Doi Toshikatsu and Sakai Tadakatsu to come back, otherwise, if the dust settles, our plan will not be implemented. Three days! The surrender ceremony will be held in three days. We must give the Tokugawa shogunate some hope and let them mobilize , so that it will be logical for us to liquidate."

Zuo Menggeng wanted a clean Japan, so the influence of the Tokugawa shogunate must be completely eliminated.

In order to become famous as a teacher, it is necessary to give the Tokugawa shogunate a crazy opportunity.

Standing on the deck, watching Edo trembling under the control of the army, his heart was full of turmoil.

The order to "slaughter the city" came to his lips several times, but he forcibly suppressed it back.

He really wants to do it.

But people are people, different from beasts and devils.

He doesn't even want the noble Chinese nation to be stained by this.

No one noticed that Zuo Menggeng, who was full of grief, turned around and headed southwest...

a bow...

Bow again...

That direction is Nanjing!

Knowing that the surrender ceremony will be held three days later, everyone in the Tokugawa shogunate was extremely excited.

Because they knew very well that in such a short period of time, the shogunate army outside had definitely not put down their weapons, and Doi Toshikatsu and Sakai Tadakatsu would not be able to rush back.

"The emperor of the empire is so happy that he finally made a mistake. Gentlemen, the time has come to decide the fate of Dongpu. Let us drink this cup and use our bravery to create a new destiny for Dongpu!"

Tokugawa Iemitsu completely abandoned the elegant pretense of the past and became very crazy.

Three days later, on the shore of Edo Bay, the banners were like forests, the army was like a sea, the armor was shining toward the sun, and the dragon was rising to ninety-five.

In the midst of everyone's attention, Zuo Menggeng stepped onto the stage, watching Tokugawa Iemitsu and others being escorted onto the stage step by step.

There were not many people, and all of them lowered their eyebrows and looked down, as if they were really honest.

But looking at one of the one-eyed dragons, the corners of Zuo Menggeng's mouth couldn't help but curl up.

People from Dongying never imagined that Zuo Menggeng knew their history very well.

Is this the ultimate move prepared by the Tokugawa shogunate?

What are you thinking?

Within ten steps, the knife is fast?
Zuo Menggeng became more and more amused, waiting to see the clumsy performance of the Dongying people.
