Daming: I, Yang Xian, really govern Yang!

Xu Miaoyun moved her head closer, and after looking at it carefully for a moment, she said, "This insect-like place next to the Ming Dynasty is the Japan where daddy went on this expedition?"

"Insects?" Yang Xian looked up, raised the corners of his mouth, and laughed.

Really, why didn't I realize it before? The entire land of Japan looks like a worm.

"Yes, that is Japan, but the target of Wei Guogong's expedition is not the whole of Japan, but only the order country and Izumo country on the Japanese island."

"With the troops and weapons and equipment that Wei Guogong has for this expedition, there is no problem at all."

Of course, Yang Xian only said that there is no problem in theory.

After all, this is not a strategy game. The side with stronger troops and better weapons will definitely win.

In the real reality, anything can happen. For example, in the event of extreme weather, a storm at sea can capsize any powerful fleet in this era.

Xu Da's side.

After twenty-five days of sailing, the Daming Navy finally successfully reached the coast of Japan.

Among them is the credit of the Japanese pirates who were captured alive before.

After all, these Japanese pirates often come to China's coastal areas to plunder, and they have already explored relatively safe navigation routes.

Xu Da asked his navigators to record the entire voyage route. Xu Da deliberately chose a location close to Izumo Country to land this time.

There are several fishing boats on the coast of Japan.

Several fishermen who had just returned from fishing were busy harvesting their catch. Looking at the boat full of fish, they all had bright smiles on their faces.

While the fishermen were unloading their catch, a group of people not far away were also unloading.

These are Japanese pirates who have just returned from the southeast coast. They are carrying the goods returned from the robbery.

"what is that?"

At this moment, a fisherman with a sharp eye took the lead in discovering something strange at sea.

Hearing this, other fishermen also looked up and saw patches of black shadow floating on the sea in the distance.

When they got closer, everyone saw clearly that those black figures were clearly warships!

This is certainly not a Japanese navy warship.

The Japanese navy does not have such a big warship!
  Especially the treasure ship in the center, there is probably no second ship in Japan.

Their eyes moved upwards, and then they saw the huge words on the sail.

"Bright?"

The fishermen did not react for a while.

However, the Japanese pirates in the distance immediately shouted loudly after seeing the Ming Dynasty's warships.

"Bright!"

"It's the navy of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Go and call someone!"

When the fishermen saw this situation, they were so frightened that they ran away.

Soon hundreds of Japanese pirates gathered on the shore, holding bows, arrows and samurai swords.

But when they saw the endless Ming warships in the distance, their eyes were full of despair.

what on earth is it?

Why did the Ming Navy suddenly attack the main island of Japan? !
  Xu Da, standing on the deck of the treasure ship, could clearly see the situation on the shore through the telescope in his hand. Looking at the gathering Japanese pirates, he raised his right hand.

"Let the gunner prepare and fire directly once within range."

The landing battle went extremely smoothly.

These hundreds of Japanese pirates could not organize effective resistance at all, and were directly blasted out by the new artillery on the ship. Subsequently, more than a thousand warships rushed to the shore in a mighty manner.

Xu Da led the large troops off the ship. This was the first time that the Ming Dynasty's King's Division set foot on Japanese soil.

Xu Da took a look at the situation around him and ordered to his men: "A team of a thousand people, look around. If there are any villages or towns nearby, attack those that can be attacked. If not, write down the location and come back to draw a map." , and then lead a large group of troops to flatten it."

"Yes, General!"

Xu Da's generals took the order and left one after another.

For hundreds of years, Japanese pirates have been plundering China.

This time, it was finally the other way around.

Xu Da himself determined the location of Izumo Country based on the information provided by the Japanese pirates.

Although the name suggests a country, it is not a country in the true sense.

Japan's order-making country is also called the law-making country.

It is a local administrative division established under the legal system in Japan in the old days. It was implemented from the Nara period until the abolition of feudal lords and the establishment of prefectures in the early Meiji period. The country here is equivalent to the ancient Chinese local units of states, roads, or the administrative units of provinces. It is sometimes called "Japan's sixty states".

At this time, Japan had just ended the Kamakura Shogunate era.

The Southern Dynasties that entered the "Daikakuji System" and the "Mochimei-in System" supported by the Ashikaga clan existed at the same time, and the Southern and Northern Dynasties era in which two emperors stood side by side appeared in Japan.

The reunification of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and after the short Muromachi period, became the Warring States Period in Japan that everyone is familiar with.

On the map drawn by Xu Da, lines were drawn, which extended from the port where they landed to Iwami Ginzan in Izumo Country.

Soon, the villages and small towns near the port were directly occupied and conquered by the Ming army.

The Japanese samurai holding swords, chattering and cursing, rushed towards the Ming Dynasty sergeants.

Little do they know that times have changed.

boom! boom! boom!
  Gunshots continued to ring out in villages and towns near the coast.

Killing, start!
  Because these more than a thousand ships have to dock here, the nearby villages and towns must be completely controlled by themselves.

The Art of War says: "As a general, you don't worry about victory, but worry about defeat first, so you can fight a hundred battles without danger!"

Xu Da naturally understood the truth. These more than a thousand warships were related to the retreat and survival of him and his tens of thousands of brothers. Moreover, the silver dug out of the silver mines in the later period also had to be transported back to the Ming Dynasty through these ships.

Throughout the process, the Ming army was not greatly hindered, and did not even encounter a decent counterattack.

In a few days, Xu Da had control of the entire nearby area.

Whenever resistance is encountered, high-pressure measures are directly used to suppress it.

It has to be said that the looting business along the southeast coast in recent years has really enriched these Japanese pirates.

After several villages and small towns the size of sesame seeds and mung beans were captured, the money confiscated was a large sum of money.

Afterwards, ten thousand men were left to guard these strongholds and behind the ships in the harbor.

Xu Da led the remaining tens of thousands of troops, like a sharp knife, directly into the Izumo Kingdom.

Today, the Izumo Kingdom is controlled by the famous Yamana clan, the eighth-generation leader, the Yamana Toki clan.

In the Yamana clan.

Yamana Tokiji was drinking sake while watching the maiji dance.

At this time, a warrior under his command suddenly walked in quickly and said in a panic: "Sir, the Ming Dynasty's army is attacking."

"Xiaotian-san, what did you say, Ming's army?"

"I asked you whether you were hungover last night and haven't woken up yet. This is our land of Japan. Where did the Ming army come from?" (End of Chapter)
