Traveling through history leaving a name

Chapter 366
Soon, the Ryukyu people who attacked the palace discovered that the Japanese soldiers began to flee, which allowed them to quickly occupy the entire palace.

But then they discovered that their king was missing.

The Ryukyu king must have been taken away by the Japanese, but they couldn't catch up for a while.

But even so, they can be regarded as regaining Shuri Castle and driving out the Japanese.

After taking control of Shuri Castle, some nobles of the Ryukyu Kingdom got together and discussed sending people outside to rescue the king, and also went to Naha to inquire about who was fighting with the Japanese.

"My lord, there is a person who claims to be the envoy of Ming Dynasty who wants to see you."

In a luxurious mansion in Shuri Castle, a subordinate reported to a Ryukyu nobleman.

"Emissary of Ming Dynasty? Could it be that Ming Dynasty sent troops to rescue us?" Hearing what his subordinates said, a Ryukyu nobleman said excitedly.

"Let the messenger come in quickly."

Soon, the subordinate came in from the outside with a middle-aged man.

"I am the envoy sent by Li Jinzhong, the governor of the Royal Navy of the Ming Dynasty. May I ask who is in charge?" The middle-aged man asked everyone without waiting for anyone to speak.

"I am Wang Gongyang, Count of Ryukyu."

Hearing what the middle-aged man said, an old man in his 50s in the crowd quickly stood up and said.

"His Majesty the Emperor Ming heard that the Ryukyu Kingdom was being attacked by the Japanese, so he dispatched four thousand sailors to come to the rescue. Now our army is attacking Naha Port. Please wait to gather troops to assist the Daming Navy to attack the Japanese together. "The middle-aged man said to Wang Gongyang, Earl of Ryukyu.

There was constant gunfire in the direction of Naha Port, and no one doubted the identity of the middle-aged man.

Now, except for Ming Dynasty, no one in the world would send reinforcements.

This middle-aged man was indeed sent by Wei Zhongxian.

When he defeated pirates such as Li Dan in the Korean Strait last year, Wei Zhongxian captured many pirate prisoners. In the end, these prisoners joined the Royal Navy and became soldiers of the Royal Navy.

This middle-aged man was also one of the pirates caught last year, named Liu Baosan.

This time to attack Ryukyu, Wei Zhongxian sent Liu Baosan over yesterday. Apart from inquiring about news, his main purpose was to find opportunities to instigate the Ryukyu people to resist the Japanese together.

In the city yesterday, Liu Baosan had no chance until just now when the people of Ryukyu were organized to attack the Japanese in the palace. He knew it must be organized by someone, so he found it here.

When Liu Baosan said that Ming sent troops to rescue Ryukyu, all the nobles and ministers of Ryukyu were very happy.

Earl Wang Gongyang hurriedly assured Liu Baosan: "Master Da Ming came to rescue us, he is our benefactor, and I will call people to join the battle immediately." Wang Gongyang said quickly.

After speaking, he quickly arranged for people to go to the city to gather the people, and prepared to let the Ryukyu people go out of the city to participate in the war.

It took half an hour, and the Ryukyu nobles gathered [-] common people, including men, women and children.

Everyone's weapons are also varied. In addition to knives, guns, swords and halberds, there are even farm tools such as hoes and shovels.

However, when the Ryukyu people were about to leave the city to fight, the Ryukyu people on the city wall saw many people running towards Shuri Castle from a distance.

These people who ran were extremely embarrassed, as if they were fleeing for their lives.

And behind these people, the sound of muskets can be heard from time to time.

"It should be the Governor-General who defeated the Japanese." Seeing this situation, Liu Baosan said happily.

As the fleeing people got closer and closer, many people also discovered that the ones running ahead were really Japanese.

"What are you waiting for, go out of the city to kill the enemy, kill the Japanese."

Seeing the Japanese being chased like bereaved dogs, the Ryukyu people in the city suddenly became excited.

Next, under the leadership of a group of Ryukyu nobles, countless Ryukyu citizens left the city one after another, and then greeted the Japanese in the direction they fled with weapons.

Outside the city, Huashan Jiugao saw the Ryukyu people rushing out of Shuri Castle, and his face suddenly turned pale.

He led his people to rush to Shuri Castle desperately, just wanting to rely on the walls of Shuri Castle to block the attack of the Ming army.

Now, Shuri Castle seems to have been taken back by the Ryukyu people, and they have no way out.

"Trash, more than 200 people can't even defend Shuri Castle." Kaguyama Kugao cursed. He regretted it now. If he had known that the Ryukyu people would rebel, he should have kept more people in the city. Now everything is over. .

"Surrender, let's go back and accept Daming's surrender." Huashan Jiu Gaobian's subordinates said.

Instead of surrendering to Ryukyu, it is better to go back and surrender to the Ming army.

Okinawa Island is isolated overseas, and there is no use for them to escape. Sooner or later they will be found out by the people on the island. Instead of doing this, it is better to surrender directly to the Ming army.

"Sir, the Japanese have surrendered."

Behind, the musketeers who had been chasing the Japanese found that thousands of Japanese surrendered to them with their arms raised.

"My lord, will the Japanese still shoot after they surrender?" Someone asked Zheng Lin.

"Why shoot? Have you forgotten what the palm print said, don't kill the captured prisoners, they can be used as coolies."

Zheng Linchuan said to one of his men: "Ma Er, take your people to receive the prisoners."

"Yes." The man known as Ma Er quickly replied, and then led people to accept the prisoners.

After Zheng Linchuan decided to accept the surrender of the Japanese, the Ryukyu people who rushed out of Shuri Castle soon realized that they had nothing to do with them.

After a while, people with live ammunition stopped their way, and their plan to kill the Japanese for revenge fell through.

"Are you Huakayama Jiugao? Don't you look good?"

Soon Zheng Linchuan met the Satsuma general Huashan Jiugao who was in charge of attacking the Ryukyu Kingdom.

At this time, Huashan Jiugao was in a very embarrassed state. After seeing Zheng Linchuan, he bowed his hands and saluted Zheng Linchuan and said, "Huashan Jiugao lost to the Ming Dynasty general. I am convinced."

"Very good, since you have surrendered, as long as you are honest, I will not kill you." Zheng Linchuan said to Huashan Jiugao, and asked Huashan Jiugao to be detained after speaking.

"Come on, let's go into town."

After accepting the captives, Zheng Linchuan escorted the Japanese captives to Shuri Castle.

"The common people of the Ryukyu Kingdom pay homage to the general of the previous court." Zheng Linchuan arrived outside Shuri City, and Ryukyu Count Wang Gongyang had already brought a group of people to greet him outside the city.

Many Ryukyu people were overwhelmed by the strong momentum when they saw musketeers with well-armored weapons and uniform walking.

"Are you the king of Ryukyu?" Zheng Linchuan asked the old man in front of him.

"Master Zheng, this is an earl of Ryukyu, not the king of Ryukyu." Liu Baosan said to Zheng Linchuan on the side.

"Where's the Ryukyu King? Why didn't he come? Could it be that he looked down on me, Daming?" Zheng Linchuan asked Wang Gongyang.

"General Ming's atonement, my king was taken away by the Japanese, not to neglect the general of the court." Hearing what Zheng Linchuan said, Wang Gongyang explained quickly.
