Ming Dynasty: Tanks blocked the door and you said to me, "Long live Ming Dynasty"

The clock has already pointed to nine o'clock in the evening.

"Ask Nanhaibo if he's ready."

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the eunuch put his hand on the transmitter and started tapping.

The sound of the radio sending out messages is very rhythmic.

A few minutes later, the buzzer suddenly sounded.

The eunuch quickly picked up a pencil and wrote it down on paper. When the sound stopped, he took out a copy of the Three Character Classic from his pocket and began to translate it by comparing it with the code.

"Commander-in-chief, the Earl of Nanhai has replied!"

"The coast near Edo has been completely surrounded."

"Mr. Zheng's 5,000 elite troops can attack Edo from Musashi at any time!"

Li Guo opened his mouth in surprise: "So... we are connected?"

He couldn't believe his ears, but his eyes clearly saw the contents of the paper.

It turned out to be true!

"You've been out for long enough. Our Ming Dynasty is changing every day."

Yutong smiled and walked towards the map hanging on the back wall.

That is a map of Japan's power!

The winding territory of Japan has been painted bright yellow, with only the tiny area of ​​Edo still retaining its black color.

"My Lord, notify them and start."

"It's New Year's Eve tonight, so we should kill a fat pig and have some fun."

Li Zicheng naturally understood what he meant, because he and his army had been waiting here for ten days just for this moment!

"Don't worry, Angel. I have already prepared the men and they are ready to go at any time!"

Although the army has not moved, the scouts are busy outside every day.

During this period, the number of troops gathered in Edo had already been clearly discovered.

The total number of troops of the Tokugawa family, plus those brought by the daimyo, is less than 30,000!

But Li Zicheng only planned to send out 5,000 people, the same as Zheng Zhilong.

It's not that they look down on the Japanese soldiers, but these two people don't take Tokugawa Iemitsu seriously at all...

After fighting for so long, I have already experienced the character of the Japanese soldiers. Fighting one against three is considered giving them face...

Afterwards, Li Zicheng personally took command, with Li Guo and Li Laiheng as deputies. The three of them led 5,000 elite troops and rushed towards Edo with torches.

And Yutong also followed in the army, riding his horse and galloping along with them.

Their garrison was only about thirty miles away from the Tokugawa family's headquarters.

Although the marching speed was very slow in the night, when the watch on Youtong's hand pointed to half past ten, the army had already arrived outside the city!

But when they arrived, the situation was already tense.

Zheng Zhilong arrived before them!

“Hahahahahaha, I’ve heard of the great name of Zhenwo Hou for a long time. After seeing him tonight, I find that his reputation is well-deserved!”

After the two sides met up, Zheng Zhilong and his brothers came to meet them.

As a maritime merchant, he seemed to have a good impression of Li Zicheng, who came from a rebel army.

Within two months, the two of them, one in the south and one in the north, conquered cities and territories on this island country and had already known of each other's existence.

Li Zicheng jumped off his horse and saluted as well.

"I have long heard of the reputation of the Earl of Nanhai. It is my honor to fight alongside him this time!"

At this time, Yutong acted as an atmosphere destroyer and pointed at Nagoya Castle not far away and said.

"Don't try to get close to me, guys. I'm just asking, can the battle be resolved in an hour?"

"An hour? Don't worry, sir. In forty minutes at most, we can send you to Honmaru Palace to watch Tokugawa Iemitsu commit seppuku with your own eyes!"

Zheng Zhilong laughed when he heard this, then turned around and said to Yang Tiansheng who was not far away.

"Tell the brothers, it's New Year's Day, light some firecrackers to give the devils a good hearing!"

"Yes!"

After Yang Tiansheng shouted loudly, he immediately gave orders to the soldiers around him.

"Distance 300, three rapid shots, fire!"

They arrived early and the artillery array had already been set up.

During this period, Tokugawa Iemitsu sent three waves of Japanese soldiers to attack, but they were all repelled by Zheng Zhibao and his men.

At this time, Tokugawa Iemitsu and his father Tokugawa Hidetada were standing on the castle of Honmaru Palace, watching everything outside.

"Can't wait any longer!"

"Even if we can't see clearly at night, we must fight back with all our might!"

"Otherwise, you and I will be sinners of the Tokugawa family and the entire Japanese nation!"

Tokugawa Hidetada finally made the final decision, reached out to pick up the Japanese sword beside him, and walked towards the stairs.

Seeing this, Tokugawa Iemitsu hurriedly chased after him.

"Father! Let me go, if I can't defeat these Ming people......"

"Beep..."

Before he could finish his words, he heard a shrill whistle coming from outside.

"gun!"

Tokugawa Iemitsu's heart tightened, and he pounced on his father and pinned him to the ground.

"Ya Butterfly!"

Tokugawa Hidetada's anus tightened and he subconsciously rolled to the side, looking at his son with horror.

"Baga! What do you want to do......"

"Fire!"

Tokugawa Iemitsu quickly explained.

"The Ming army is firing cannons..."

"Asami Yuri said that whenever this sound is heard, countless shells will fall!"

"them......"

"boom!"

As they were talking, the first round of shells had already landed in the city.

“Boom boom boom…”

Explosions sounded one after another, and balls of fire almost lit up the entire night sky.

"idiot!"

Seeing the situation outside through the window, Tokugawa Hidetada kicked Tokugawa Iemitsu away and ran down the stairs.

Chapter 599: Invincible? Have you asked our family?

The Japanese soldiers in the city were already in chaos. Faced with the continuously falling shells, the only thing they could do was to flee in panic.

"idiot!"

"Fight out with me!"

"Give me the duck..."

Tokugawa Hidetada rushed out of the castle and saw this scene, and immediately shouted angrily.

Several daimyos who had escaped from their territories finally found their backbone when they heard his voice. They immediately drew their Japanese swords and gathered around him with their samurai.

"Squeak..."

The dilapidated city gate slowly opened.

Tokugawa Hidetada led the way with his legs and rushed out under the firelight.

Following behind him was the only remaining small number of elite troops from Japan.

The sound of war drums rang out.

As this group of people rushed out, a large number of Japanese soldiers also emerged from the left and right sides of Nagoya Castle.

Together with the Dekang family and the armies of other daimyo, a total of 30,000 people, all rushed forward.

There was no pulling, just a general attack.

Because Tokugawa Hidetada knew very well that in the face of the Ming Dynasty's artillery fire, they simply had no money to drag it out!

"Give me the duck!"

Tokugawa Hidetada rushed to the front under the artillery fire.

A group of ronin came up from nowhere and squeezed their way to Tokugawa Hidetada's side from the periphery of the army.

"General, we are here to help you!"

"Yoshi, you are a good citizen..."

Seeing this group of people, Tokugawa Hidetada's tense expression finally relaxed a little.

On the opposite side, Li Zicheng and Zheng Zhilong looked at each other and burst into laughter when they saw that these guys dared to counterattack.

"Qin army, listen to my orders and follow me to kill!"

"I belong to the South China Sea Navy. Anyone who stands in my way will die!"

The two men stood side by side, holding knives and rushed forward.

In the dark, it was difficult to load the flintlock rifle, so hand-to-hand combat became the only option at the moment.

Zheng Zhilong and Li Zicheng led their troops to fight the enemy in the front, while Yang Tiansheng, Li Guozhu, Li Guo, Li Laiheng and others led their troops to charge at the enemies on both sides.

The artillery fire was still going on, but the angle had been adjusted, and the impact point had been moved back from inside the city to near the city gate, ensuring that the Japanese soldiers who came out could not go back!

There were only three hundred meters between the two sides, and they collided head-on in the blink of an eye.

Although it was night, the height difference between the two sides was the best reference.

The Qin army and the South China Sea navy were all elite soldiers, all over 1.7 meters tall.

Just aim at someone who is a head shorter than you and swing your weapon at him. That person must be an enemy, there is no doubt about it!

But at this moment, a rhythmic drum sound suddenly came from behind the Ming army.

Then, there was a uniform singing.

"Big knife, chop at the devils' heads!"

"Heroic soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, the day of decisive battle has arrived."

"The day of decisive battle has arrived!"

"We have the brave South China Sea Navy in front of us and the fearless Qin Army behind us. We brothers unite and move forward bravely..."

"Keep your eyes on the enemy."

"Destroy him!"

"Destroy him!"

"........."

Zheng Zhilong and Li Zicheng subconsciously looked back, only to see that a high platform had been built behind them with sacks at some point.

On the high platform, Doctor Wang Yuling had a red cloth wrapped around her head and was holding a drumstick in both hands, beating the drum hard.
