Return to the Three Kingdoms with the Empire System

Chapter 489
Chen Deng frowned immediately after hearing Ye Mo say that he was going to attack Kumamoto.On the other hand, Fazheng, after listening to Ye Mo's words, directly raised objections.

Ye Mo only said that he wanted to attack Kumamoto Castle, but he didn't say why. How could Fazheng agree?
It's not that Chen Deng didn't consider the strength comparison between the two sides if he didn't speak. It's just that Chen Deng wanted to know Ye Mo a little bit better, which made Chen Deng not speak at the beginning, but was thinking about what Ye Mo said. possibility of things.

In Chen Deng's perception, Ye Mo had never done anything he was not sure of. Since Ye Mo proposed to attack Kumamoto City this time, he must have some backhand.

Looking at the excited Fazheng, Ye Mo also smiled wryly and explained to the two the reason why he planned to attack Kumamoto.If it is true what Ye Mo said, then the two of them really can't say anything to dissuade them.

The reason why they were able to escape smoothly at the beginning was because Zhou Tai and the others dragged the island nation's navy to their death, preventing them from pursuing them.Now that Zhou Tai has something to lead the fleet to come to them, how could they just sit idly by?

"My lord, how many troops can we use this time?" Now that he has figured out that this battle is inevitable, Fazheng also put all his thoughts on how to deal a sufficient blow to Kumamoto so that The owner of Kumamoto Castle had to withdraw part of his troops.

After hearing Fazheng's words, Ye Mo glanced at Fazheng, and said, "This time, Qu Yi led half of them to the camp first, and all the students from the martial arts academy were dispatched. General Huang led a thousand infantry. This time it was just It’s because Kumamoto Castle feels threatened, not because we really want to bring down Kumamoto Castle.”

At this time, the systematic island country civilization has not yet been fully developed. If Ye Mo occupies a city in the island country at this time, he will be seeking his own death.

After Ye Mo talked about the number of soldiers who would participate in the siege, Fazheng and Chen Deng immediately felt relieved.According to these people given by Ye Mo, it is enough to defend Kumamoto City.But siege is not enough.

But Ye Mo still wanted to send out such a lineup when he knew that these people would not be able to capture Kumamoto, which meant that Ye Mo really didn't even bother to put on a show.

This time, Fazheng and Chen Deng suffered a lot.Ye Mo just touched his lips and said such a thing, but he asked Fazheng and Chen Deng to do it well. Isn't that embarrassing?
However, Fazheng and Chen Deng would not regard this as Ye Mo making things difficult for them.Since Ye Mo was able to explain this matter, they would naturally think that this was a test Ye Mo gave them.

But in fact, Ye Mo already had some concerns about this matter.Although he only took more than 2000 soldiers out to show off this time, don't forget that Ye Mo still has an ally.

Since Di Yeqingyun is Ye Mo's ally, there is no way to stay out of it at this time.What's more, Ye Mo didn't really want to bring down Kumamoto Castle, he just went through the motions to frighten the city lord of Kumamoto Castle.

While Fazheng and Chen Deng were still discussing how to handle this matter more perfectly, Ye Mo also quietly exited the study and went to Kumamoto City to find Di Ye Qingyun.

Di Ye Qingyun also expressed his full support for Ye Mo's plan.But Ye Mo also knows that Di Ye Qingyun is saying this now, but once things change, Di Ye Qingyun's soldiers will definitely run faster than anyone else.

However, Ye Mo didn't care about this, anyway, he didn't have any other intentions.Now Ye Mo's strength in the island country is still too weak, so since he can take advantage of the situation, Ye Mo will naturally not mind.

After negotiating with Di Ye Qingyun about the cooperation, Ye Mo also turned back to the place where they stayed.After Ye Mo returned, Fazheng and Chen Deng also figured out how to use so few people to create the illusion that Kumamoto City was going to be brought down.

According to what Fazheng and the others said, since Ye Mo has no way to send out a large army to besiege, he should not besiege at all, but send soldiers to guard Kumamoto City to hunt down all the people who leave the city.At the same time, traps were dug on the main roads around Kumamoto Castle to make it look like they were going to besiege the castle.

Of course, this is not the whole of Fazheng's plan.Pretending to besiege the city is only the first step in their plan.Next, Fazheng is going to send some soldiers into Kumamoto Castle pretending to be ordinary people. When Kumamoto Castle is in chaos, why worry that Kumamoto Castle will not call those soldiers back?

Putting pressure on Kumamoto Castle, and at the same time not cutting off the hope of Kumamoto Castle, this is how the city lord of Kumamoto Castle can call back the soldiers they sent out.If the performance is too strong, then the city lord of Kumamoto Castle will see that Kumamoto Castle will be lost, and he will strengthen his determination to answer the call to join the main force of the island nation's navy.

After Ye Mo listened to Fazheng's suggestion, he also ordered Wei Yan to immediately take people to the four gates of Kumamoto City to lie in ambush. When he saw anyone coming out, he followed them to a secluded place to kill them.As for whether the people killed were innocent people, Ye Mo couldn't care so much.

Two days later, a large number of missing people in the city finally aroused the vigilance of the city owner of Kumamoto City.

Originally, on the first day, someone reported to the government that their family members were missing, but the government didn't take it seriously at the time.There is no evidence, it's just that I haven't seen anyone during the day, how can it be counted as missing?
But in the evening of the next day, people from the government in Kumamoto City found that more and more people came to report the crime. After counting, they were horrified to find that in the past two days, the number of missing people had reached five. More than a hundred.

This time, the city lord of Kumamoto City couldn't sit still. If such a large-scale disappearance of people was not found out, then he, the city lord, would have come to an end.

Immediately, the Lord of Kumamoto City also ordered the officials to go out of the city to check what happened.According to the news from those who reported the incident, those who disappeared were all because they left the city, so they never came back.

And outside the city, Ye Mo was also hiding at the side at this time, secretly delighted to see the officials in the city constantly coming out to inquire about the news.Now that the city lord of Kumamoto Castle has finally sent someone out, their strategy of Fazheng has finally succeeded.

He made a gesture to Wei Yan who was not far away. When Wei Yan saw it, he nodded to show that he understood and then ran in the direction of the official.

In Kumamoto City, after dispatching more than [-] officials, half a day passed, but no one came back.Just when the city lord of Kumamoto City was extremely anxious, finally a bloody official appeared in their field of vision.

Seeing someone come back, the city lord finally breathed a sigh of relief.No matter what, you can always get some outside news, so you won't be in fear all day long like before.

"My lord, outside... outside, there are many... many..." Before the official could tell the news that he had risked his life to inquire, a feathered arrow flew out from the road outside the city and hit the man directly. Officials' vests.

The person on the road outside Kumamoto Castle was none other than Ye San.After putting away the hard bow in his hand without haste, Ye San murmured, "It's been such a long time, you should tell the news you found out."

However, what Ye San didn't know was that the official was shot dead by an arrow before he said anything.

However, fortunately, Ye Mo had anticipated this situation before, and sent one of the officials who came out of each gate of Kumamoto City back, so that they would not pass the news back because they were seriously injured and died on the way.

After receiving the news from the officials who had gone out from the other three gates, the Lord of Kumamoto Castle could not stop sweating from his forehead.

The news he got was that a group of bandits and thieves united with the foreigners who landed before, and they wanted to take advantage of the lack of troops in Kumamoto City to take down Kumamoto City and then loot it.

The Lord of Kumamoto Castle is facing a difficult choice at this time.

First, call back the soldiers sent out earlier, and at the same time organize the people in the city to defend the city together.In this way, Kumamoto Castle can be fine, but in this way, there is no way to gather the main force of the navy according to Oda Nobunaga's order.

The second is to rely only on the people in the city to defend the city, but from the perspective of the soldiers who came back to report, if they only rely on the people in the city, there is no way to defend the city before the sent soldiers return.In this way, when the city is broken, the city owner can't imagine what kind of tragedy will happen then.

Outside Kumamoto Castle, Ye Mo didn't have the patience to wait for the owner of Kumamoto Castle to think about it for several days.After letting the officials of Kumamoto City enter the city, Ye Mo ordered two detachable trebuchets to set off from the landing site. After the trebuchets were assembled, he began to throw stones to deter the people of Kumamoto City. The Santo had to make a decision as early as possible.

In Kumamoto City, Di Ye Qingyun also followed the previously discussed plan and began to contact some families in the city who could speak, and prepared to jointly put pressure on the city lord.

After Ye Mo and the others arrived in the island country, the real first battle is about to start!
