Chapter 336 The Battle of Tsushima Island
"Shoot into Tsushima Island and slaughter all the Japanese pirates!"

Following Li Congmao's order, hundreds of Korean warships rushed into the port of Tsushima Island and burned all the warships of the Japanese pirates, so that all the Japanese pirates could be blocked on the island and prevent them from escaping.

Zong Zhensheng and Hayata had already set up several lines of defense in the port, trying to block the North Korean army at sea.

"kill!"

Li Congmao personally commanded the warship under his command, and all the arrows on the ship were fired at once, beating up the Japanese pirates on the pier until they couldn't lift their heads. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the North Korean army also began to land.

But Zong Zhensheng also quickly discovered the movement of the North Korean army, and immediately commanded his men to kill them against the rain of arrows.

Although most of the Japanese pirates under Zong Zhensheng were newcomers, they knew very well that if they were killed by the North Koreans on the island, they would definitely die, so everyone was desperate.

As a result, Li Congmao's first landing team was quickly driven out of the sea by Japanese pirates, even if he tried his best to support them on the boat, it was useless.

You must know that Zhu Zhanhe and other dignitaries of the Ming Dynasty are watching behind you, so Li Congmao also felt that his face was dull at this time, and immediately organized a larger-scale landing. The two sides competed for each other at the port, and the sea was covered with corpses. .

Finally, after three fierce battles, Li Congmao's army finally occupied the port, allowing the army to land smoothly, while the Japanese pirates retreated to the town behind the port, and then a fierce offensive and defensive battle broke out.

"Why is North Korea's army so weak?"

Zhang Fu, Liu Rong and other generals at the bow watched Li Congmao's attack on the island, but they all shook their heads again and again.

Whether in terms of strength or equipment, Li Congmao's North Korean army had an absolute advantage, but they fought the battle like this. If it was placed in the Ming army, the generals commanding it would definitely be punished.

"There is nothing wrong with Li Congmao's command. The key is that the North Korean army's combat effectiveness is too weak. They dare not step forward in the face of the fierce Japanese pirates. If they are not several times stronger than the Japanese pirates, I am afraid that even if they can win, they will have to pay a heavy price."

Zhang Fu pointedly pointed out the shortcomings of the North Korean army.

"It's true. The North Korean army seems to have not fought a war for a long time. They don't even understand the basic cooperation with each other. When they charge, they rush, and when they retreat, they fight for each other. It's a mess!"

Liu Rong agreed at this time.

"Actually, this is quite normal. North Korea has a good relationship with Ming Dynasty. The biggest threats around are the Jurchens in the north and the Japanese pirates in the south. However, whether it is the Jurchens or the Japanese pirates, the threats to North Korea are only financial losses. It will not affect their rule, and in this case, North Korea is naturally less armed."

Zhu Zhanhe heard the discussion of several people, and said with a smile at this moment.

It is precisely because of North Korea's military weakness that when they encounter foreign aggression, they can only hug other people's thighs. For example, they hugged Ming Dynasty when they were there, and later hugged the thighs of the Qing Dynasty, Japan, and the United States respectively.

While speaking, the North Korean army finally launched a fierce attack on the town of the clan. Although the Japanese pirates resisted fiercely, the North Korean army advanced step by step due to the huge force gap, and finally captured the town behind the port.

The location of the most important port has fallen, and there is no suspense about the next battle.

The Japanese pirates either died or surrendered, and of course some Japanese pirates tried to escape, but where could they escape on the island?

Zhang Fu has commanded his navy to blockade the various sea areas around Tsushima Island, and as long as they are ships that escaped from Tsushima Island, they will be intercepted at once.

"My lord, I caught a big fish!"

At this moment, Zhang Fu's boat suddenly approached, and he was standing on the bow of the boat reporting to Zhu Zhanhe excitedly.

"Caught who?"

Zhu Zhanhe immediately asked.

Li Congmao has captured the important towns on Tsushima Island, and the next step is to raid and arrest some important people, such as Zong Zhensheng and others, and they are likely to escape by boat, so Zhang Fu will personally command the warship to intercept.

"Gecheng Erlang!"

Zhang Fei replied excitedly.

"What? Why is he here?"

Zhu Zhanhe's eyes widened in shock when he heard the words. When Ge Chengerlang disappeared, Zhu Zhanhe suspected that the other party was not dead, but he never dreamed that he would appear on Tsushima Island.

"The last general doesn't know either, but I've already sent someone to bring him here, and the prince will know when he asks!"

Zhang Fei reported again.

After a while, another warship came, and Ge Chengerlang was tied up in a ball with two soldiers behind him. When he saw Zhu Zhanhe at the bow, his eyes were full of hatred.

When Ge Cheng Erlang was sent to Zhu Zhanhe, Zhu Zhanhe looked at him in amazement and said: "I always suspected that you were not dead, but I didn't expect you to escape, but I was very curious. The entire water village is surrounded by water, how did you escape?"

"Hmph, I didn't expect that I would be caught by you after escaping here. Stop talking nonsense, kill or cut as you like!"

Ge Cheng Erlang straightened his neck and said, falling into Zhu Zhanhe's hands again, he had given up the idea of ​​living.

"Hehe, it's easy for you to want to die, but you still answer my question honestly, otherwise you will only suffer more."

Zhu Zhanhe saw that the other party did not answer his own words, so he threatened with a slight smile.

As the person who built the East Factory single-handedly, he knows many ways to make people want to die. If Ge Cheng Erlang is not honest, he doesn't mind letting the other party try it himself.

Facing Zhu Zhanhe's threat, although Ge Cheng Erlang wanted to die, he still felt a little scared, so after hesitating for a while, he had to honestly tell the story of how he pretended to be dead and escaped.

"So that's the case, it seems that I was careless."

Zhu Zhanhe nodded first, and then asked curiously, "Then why did you appear on Tsushima Island?"

"I came here to recruit some people, so that I can restore my strength as soon as possible, so that I can fight back to the coast of Daming in the future."

Gecheng Erlang replied again.

Hearing the words, Zhu Zhanhe also secretly rejoiced that he had blocked Ge Chengerlang on Tsushima Island, otherwise if the other party really recruited enough manpower, the people along the coast of Daming might be in bad luck in the future.

"My son, Li Congmao came to report, Zong Zhensheng surrendered, and the leader of the Japanese pirates, Haata Zuomenwei, died in battle!"

At this moment, I saw another boat coming to report the news.

Hearing the news, Katsuragi Erlang, who was tied up, also sighed secretly, Zong Zhensheng surrendered, Haata died in battle, and now Tsushima Island is over.

However, Ge Chengerlang was also wondering. He couldn't figure out how, with Zhu Zhanhe's identity, he would appear on Tsushima Island with a huge fleet and even the North Korean army. Could it be that Daming and North Korea joined forces to Just to attack the tiny island of Tsushima?
