The great dream of the heavens begins with Lin Pingzhi!

Chapter 38: Occupy Kyushu Island and fight a decisive battle against the Tokugawa Shogunate!

Chapter 38 Occupy Kyushu Island and fight a decisive battle against the Tokugawa Shogunate!

Seven days later, Edo Castle, Tokugawa Ieyasu Shogunate.

An old man in black sat upright. After reviewing the intelligence in his hands, his expression grew solemn. He then called his son, Tokugawa Hidetada, and said, "News has come from the south that a Ming army has landed in Kyushu. They are powerful and I'm afraid they have already occupied the entire Kyushu region! Therefore, we must defeat them before they can gain a firm foothold! Hidetada, send someone to notify the daimyo of various places and have them gather their troops as soon as possible to conquer Kyushu Island!"

Tokugawa Hidetada, the second-generation shogun, was a middle-aged man. He responded, "Don't worry, father. I'll do it right away! But what about the Toyotomi family?"

At this time, Toyotomi Hideyori was still alive, with a territory of 65 koku and abundant financial resources.

Moreover, there are some daimyos who are loyal to the Toyotomi family.

If Toyotomi Hideyori summoned wandering samurai and contacted loyal daimyo to launch a surprise attack at the critical moment of the battle between the two sides, the Edo Shogunate would be in danger.

Tokugawa Ieyasu said coldly: "Let Toyotomi Hideyori lead the troops and go to war together, otherwise I will destroy the Toyotomi family first!"

This is a good opportunity to kill with a borrowed knife and eliminate Toyotomi Hideyori!
Ever since the Battle of Sekigahara, Tokugawa Ieyasu has been using various means to weaken the Toyotomi clan. Now, the Toyotomi clan's strength has been greatly reduced, and they dare not resist head-on!

……

At the same time, Kyushu Island.

In Satsuma, two armies faced each other dozens of feet apart on the plain.

On one side was the last 5,000 troops of the Shimazu clan led by Shimazu Yoshihiro.

On the other side was the 3,000 White Tiger Army led by Zhao Xuanyang, the third of the Seven Hunyuan Sons!
The White Tiger Army's translator began to persuade them to surrender.

However, Shimazu Yoshihiro knew how terrifying the army in front of him was, but still refused!

If other Japanese daimyo invaded and could not defeat him, they would surrender!
But because it was the Ming army that invaded, he couldn't surrender!
Otherwise, once Tokugawa Ieyasu defeats the Ming army in the future, he will be held accountable!
Therefore, he let some of the Shimazu family leave early.

After failing to persuade him to surrender, Zhao Xuanyang ordered an attack!

In front, Gao Kexin led a thousand sword and shield soldiers to charge with shields.

That’s right, Gao Kexin and other guards have been incorporated into the army to supplement the high-level combat power of the army.

The Shimazu family's firearms and archer units began firing in unison!
At that time, firearms were not powerful enough and their numbers were limited, so the archer troops were not eliminated.

At this time, 500 archers behind Zhao Xuanyang began to fire in unison, suppressing the enemy's firearms and archer troops.

There are not many archers in the White Tiger Army, but they are all elite archers who learn the Lin family martial arts of Silver Feather Archery!

Silver Feather Archery is one of the three unique skills that once dominated the martial arts world of Lin Yuantu!

Compared with ordinary archers, arrows shot by masters of internal strength have longer range and greater lethality, which is simply a crushing victory!

In just a few minutes, the Shimazu family's long-range forces were quickly wiped out!
At the same time, Gao Kexin led a thousand elite soldiers and started fighting with the samurai and foot soldiers of the Shimazu family!
This is a martial arts dimension, so Shimazu Yoshihiro is also a first-class master, and he fights with Gao Kexin.

However, at this time, Gao Kexin had learned the Lieyang Gong, which greatly improved his internal strength and made the Songshan sword technique more powerful. He killed the opponent with just over ten moves!

With the destruction of the Shimazu family, Chu Feng completely occupied Kyushu Island!

At this time, he established a government office and proclaimed himself Marquis of Wei. He abolished Japan's disordered system, established a complete government agency based on the county system, and governed the territory!
The entire Kyushu Island was divided into 1 county and 20 prefectures. Talented disciples were appointed as temporary county magistrates, and some staff and clerks were assigned as temporary officials such as county magistrates and chief clerks. If they performed well, they could be promoted to full-time positions, so they were very motivated!
Of course, this will definitely damage the interests of the upper-class Japanese people in the territory and will definitely be met with a lot of opposition!
But Chu Feng didn't care, it was just a matter of one word: kill!

A small boat is easier to turn around!
Otherwise, it will be troublesome to reform the system after unifying Japan in the future!
Chu Feng divided the 1 auxiliary soldiers into county soldiers, who were responsible for suppressing all kinds of disobedience!

These 1 auxiliary soldiers had not received systematic training. If they were fighting in a large army on the battlefield, there would be some concerns, but if they were to suppress the rebellion of some warriors and small lords, it would be a matter of indiscriminate killing!

Chu Feng's 1 White Tiger Army is stationed at the border, ready to guard against the invading Japanese army at any time!

In addition, he also sent 3000 Qinglong troops with a large number of Japanese specialties back to Fuzhou to pick up the corresponding follow-up personnel.

At that time, Japan had an area of about 37 square kilometers and a population of about 1200 million. To occupy such a large territory, in addition to military force, all kinds of talents were needed!
……

A month later, after a lot of killing, Chu Feng's rule was finally stabilized!
At the same time, the Tokugawa shogunate gathered an army of 100,000 and attacked Kyushu Island!
Chu Feng personally led 1 White Tiger Army and 3000 Blue Dragon Army to meet the enemy!
On the open plain, the two armies faced each other a hundred feet apart!

Under the general's flag, Chu Feng was wearing black armor. Without any nonsense, he directly ordered the archers to start shooting.

The Wei army had a small number of shield soldiers in the front, holding up tower shields to defend against arrows and bullets, while behind them were the entire army's 3,000 archers, launching a volley!

As Tokugawa Hidetada gave the order, Japan's firearms units and archers also began to fire in unison.

At this time, the maximum effective range of a musket was only 200 meters, and the effective range of an archer was slightly longer, but still within meters. Only the artillery had a longer range, but it was no more than meters.

Moreover, the Japanese army has a small number of iron cannons, most of which are solid bullets with limited lethality!

The effective range of the archers under Chu Feng is more than 200 meters, and the effective range of those inner disciples whose martial arts are close to the first-class ones can reach more than 300 meters!
Although the Tokugawa shogunate had tens of thousands of long-range troops and a numerical advantage, they were slaughtered one-sidedly!

Not long after, the famous Japanese general Honda Tadakatsu, who was nearly sixty years old, led 5000 cavalrymen to charge with a dragonfly cutter in his hand!
At this time, Chu Feng gave an order, the formation changed, and a group of two thousand spearmen came to the front.

He also came to the front army. As the Japanese cavalry approached, Chu Feng personally led the spearmen to fight against the Japanese cavalry!

Originally, as the commander-in-chief, he should not have fought in person, but this battle was crucial. To be on the safe side and reduce casualties, he still had to take action!
The charging cavalrymen directly collided with the long white spears, and immediately fell off their horses and men.

Spearmen can restrain cavalry, not to mention that each of the White Tiger Army's spearmen is a powerful warrior who is proficient in the Golden Bell Cover!
This was a one-sided massacre!

At this time, Honda Tadakatsu, known as the most powerful general in the Warring States Period, rode up on horseback, stabbing Chu Feng with a dragonfly knife several feet long in his hand. His martial arts skills were also at the top level, and this shot was as fast as lightning!

However, Chu Feng grabbed the dragonfly that was coming at him at high speed with his left hand and pulled it hard.

Honda Tadakatsu only felt a strong pull, and his body involuntarily flew off the horse's back and flew towards Chu Feng.

At this time, Honda Tadakatsu hurriedly let go of the famous spear in his hand and fell to the ground in a hurry.

However, a black figure flashed past his side, and a bloody mark appeared on Honda Tadakatsu's neck. Blood gushed out, and he slowly fell down with an unwilling look.

The so-called number one general of the Warring States Period fell here!
Chu Feng's figure flashed, and he returned to his horse, continuing to wield his thick-backed golden sword, slaughtering Honda Tadakatsu's mother soldiers and other Japanese cavalry.

The 5,000 cavalrymen of the Tokugawa shogunate were almost all armored and were considered the elite of Japan. However, when they clashed head-on with the spearmen of the White Tiger Army, they were slaughtered one-sidedly. In less than a quarter of an hour, they were completely defeated!
