The Age of Lords Reborn

Chapter 501
"It's also thanks to the antidote and elixir given by the lord, otherwise I can still listen to Mr. talking about it today?" After He Chun said, he was extremely grateful to Mo Xiaobai from the bottom of his heart.

When all the generals worked together to kill the snow monster, everyone got an extremely rare antidote.But he heard that the lord himself didn't keep a bottle, and all the antidotes made by Dr. Dong were distributed to the soldiers.

If he didn't have the antidote by his side when he was poisoned a day ago, He Chun reckoned that his body would be cold by now.

Fortunately, I met the lord.

Seeing that He Chun was about to get up while talking, Liu Ye quickly held him down: "Remember, only you and I know in Seoul that you have not been poisoned. camouflage."

"Then why don't you suffocate me? And that Shen Weijing, I think he's in a daze, why don't you tell him the truth?"

"No need, this person has a sharp eye and a quick mouth, and it is very easy to expose the truth. It is better to let him believe it, so that he understands that even with the backing of Ming Dynasty, he may not be able to retreat completely in the Japanese territory."

Liu Ye has been with Guo Jia for a while, and his knowledge of people has been steadily improving.Shen Weijing has the style of a pure villain. Once the Japanese dare to threaten his life, they will definitely make things harder in the negotiation.

Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, at least Ukita Hideka's attention will be drawn by this matter, and it is unlikely to pay attention to the movements of the Daming Navy thousands of miles away.

When the Ukita Hide family reacts, the master's naval battle plan will probably be implemented for the most part.

.........

Tsushima Island is located between North Korea and Japan.

The northwest sea is called the Korean Strait, while the southeast belongs to the Tsushima Strait.

Dozens of ships sailed from south to north, deliberately avoiding the eastern waters, and would rather spend an extra day or two at sea for this reason.

"Jiaming, do you know about the battle between the Nine Ghost Army and the North Korean Navy not long ago?"

On the main ship of this fleet, there were two Japanese generals standing side by side in Class A, and one of the Japanese generals with a mustache said in a deep voice: "The iron-clad ship that was omnipotent across the sea back then, even the North Korean navy Even the masters can't resist it, it's a shame for us."

"'Nippon Maru' is already the largest warship we own, and it is not inferior to the North Korean warships in terms of size, but after all, our warships do not have too many cannons, and cannot give the most favorable blow to the North Korean navy."

Kato Yoshiaki, the same family as Kato Kiyomasa, the commander of the Second Army, is currently serving as the Navy Zuomasuke, and is responsible for clearing the remaining North Korean navy at sea.

It was precisely because he had fought against the remaining North Korean navy that he had a systematic understanding of Yi Sun-shin and the opponent's navy, and found the biggest flaw in his own warship.

Missing guns!

Of the hundreds of large and small warships, less than ten were equipped with cannons, more than half of which were equipped with five cannons, and only three large ships were equipped with eight cannons.

There is no artillery, and the range of iron cannons and firecrackers is extremely short.

Faced with Yi Sun-shin's suicide attack style, the Japanese fleet was often powerless.

"Could it be that the development of artillery must be the trend in future naval battles? Will the fighting and bravery of samurai be thrown into the sea?" Beside Kato Yoshiaki, Yasuji Wakisaka touched his mustache unwillingly, as an acceptance He is a general inherited from samurai in the Warring States Period, and he believes in the samurai sword in his hand even more.

"Iron armor and heavy artillery must become sharp weapons to dominate naval warfare."

Kato Yoshiaki nodded heavily, and then let out a sigh of relief: "We must win this battle, and only if we win will we have the opportunity to develop a more powerful navy. By then, these old old things can be dismantled and used as firewood. "

Although Wakisaka Yasuji was depressed, he could only nod.

Those who cling to the old stuff and don't let go have already been thrown into the sea by Yi Sun-shin to feed the sharks.

After a long silence, Yasuji Wakisaka said again: "The Korean Navy has always imitated the Ming Dynasty's organizational system. The Korean Navy alone is so difficult to deal with. What will the Ming Navy look like?"

"Trust me, you wouldn't want to know."

Kato smiled when he heard the words, and compared the current naval combat strength of the Wa Kingdom with the Ming army, which is said to have at least ten cannons on its warships, it is undoubtedly asking for trouble.

Fortunately, the Daming Navy has had no signs of voyage activities for a long time, so I don't have to worry about it.

But at the moment when he finished speaking, the watchman on the top of the warship suddenly made a movement, and the messenger below saw it, and immediately approached the two generals:

"General, an unknown black spot appears in the northwest direction."

"Don't understand the black spot?" Kato Yoshiaki stared at the words, and said, "How far are we from Geoje Island?"

"My lord, that's not Geoje Island."

The flag bearer shook his head when he heard the words, and when he looked up again, he realized that the companion above had changed another flag.

This time there is no need for him to repeat it, Kato has already seen it clearly.

I don't understand that the black dot is approaching and it will move.

"Is there a ship approaching, from North Korea?"

"No, it is impossible for North Korea to send a fleet from the east. They have no fleet in Jeolla-do for a long time."

"Not from North Korea? Could it be?"

Several question marks flashed through his mind, and Kato Yoshiaki suddenly realized a terrible fact.

The opponent he least wants to face, the Daming Navy is here.

"Quickly, let the notice go, all the fleets are moving forward at full speed."

"The left and right teams immediately dispersed, one went to Geoje Island, and the other went directly to Busan."

Kato Yoshiaki reacted quickly, and after finishing speaking, he looked at Yasuji Wakisaka: "Now, please lead a fleet to leave first, and I will try my best to deal with the invading navy."

"How do you know it's a sailor?"

"In addition to the Daming Navy, does North Korea dare to send caravans to pass here?"

After Wakisaka Yasuji heard this, his complexion also changed: "The Daming Navy actually got involved? Why didn't there be any signs before?"

"Now is not the time to talk, Anzhi, you have to leave."

"Then, well, I'll take a fleet first." Yasuji Wakisaka gritted his teeth, and immediately turned around to take a small boat to another warship to the east.

When he left by boat, the 'black dot' in the mouth of the standard bearer was finally able to see his true colors.

They are exactly naval warships flying the flag of Ming Dynasty!
"That is?"

Standing at the highest point, the flag bearer also noticed several small black spots approaching rapidly.

This time it is not a warship, but a piece of artillery.

Is the Ming army crazy?

After several miles away, they fired directly?
Do you still want to use this to scare us?

The flag bearer, who had never really seen artillery battles at sea, couldn't understand the behavior of the Ming army. For this reason, he even delayed sending out the flag language for a few seconds.

A few seconds of work, just a blink of an eye.

When he passed the news to the deck, Daming's artillery had already arrived overhead.

"how is this possible?"

"Da Ming's warship can fire such a long-distance cannon?"

Jia Teng was stunned at first, then suddenly woke up, and sternly shouted: "Everyone lie down, get down and hide!"

It's just that it's too late for him to say it now, seven or eight big iron balls fell from the sky, smashed into the sea with a 'boom', and in an instant, there were three feet of huge waves, shaking the warship erratically.

Just as Kato was holding on to the mast desperately to prevent himself from falling, [-], who was a thousand meters away in the Ming warship, was full of excitement and asked urgently, "Did I hit? Did I hit? "
