Iron Dynasty

Fight first and then make peace?

The samurai exclaimed in unison.

Yamada Nobunaga picked up the tea on the low table and took a sip, feeling the elegant fragrance of the tea. After a long time, he explained: If you don't fight, you will beg for peace. If they lose, they have nothing to say. At this time, they can clearly see the disparity in strength between the Japanese country and the Great Yu country. Of course, if they win, then there is no need to worry.

After a pause, he continued: As for the pursuit of peace, it is a strategy that takes courage and courage. The navy of the Great Yu Kingdom is too large, our warships are not its opponents at all, and the land where we grow up is surrounded by the sea on all sides. Then we will never be able to develop, not to mention the Dutch first, then the British, and now the Great Yu Kingdom, all of which show that we have been left behind by them in weapons. Like Goryeo, it would be worthwhile to exchange a temporary humiliation for the Great Yu State’s dedication to Da Yu’s industry, after all, we paid tribute to the Great Yu State every year decades ago.”

Da Ming, I'm afraid that the purpose of the Great Yu Kingdom this time is to prepare to annex us. It is not like the punishment in the past. Since the prince named Xiao Ming became the emperor, the Great Yu Kingdom has still changed its appearance. A man in his thirties The samurai said worriedly.

Yamada Nobunaga looked at the samurai who was talking. This is the samurai he trusted the most. His name was Hideyoshi Sato. He was very flexible and had a keen sense of conspiracy.

It was with his assistance that he was able to have the status he is today, and Hideyoshi Sato came from the Sato family and was the eldest son of the domestic Sato daimyo.

So this time we have to show the belief that we are determined to work with the Great Yu Kingdom. Unlike Goryeo, our firearms and population are several times that of Goryeo. It is not so easy to completely conquer us! Yamada Nobunaga snapped. said.

Yes! All the warriors bowed their heads in unison.

...

After a small gathering with Ye Qingyun in Busan City, Yue Yun did not stay in the Huajie Liuxiang of Busan City, but returned to his flagship, where he had his own lounge in the battleship.

Glancing at the map, Yue Yun's eyes focused on Naozu Bay, which would be their first step in attacking the Japanese kingdom.

The next morning, he ordered the battleship to move toward Nanotsu, a distance of 400 miles from the sea, which was only a day's journey for the battleship.

At the same time, Yamada Nobunaga was also mobilizing the remaining Japanese warships. In fact, in order to keep the only 200 remaining warships these days, he ordered all the Ataka ships to enter the inland river to escape, and installed artillery to deal with Da Yu. country.

Now that the news of the full attack of the Great Yu Kingdom's navy is clear, he can only follow his own plan to fight the backwater first, and work so hard to get to where he is now. He doesn't want to be dared by other big names.

In addition to Anzaku, he also mobilized 80,000 musketeers, 200 iron cannons, and 8,000 cavalry. Like the Battle of Goryeo, this time he still recruited soldiers from various daimyos, which also implied his purpose.

In the tense atmosphere, Yue Yun's fleet arrived at Nanatsu Bay at dusk that night, and he smiled inexplicably as he looked at the empty pier.

Like countless fleet patrols, every time they arrived at the outskirts of Naozu, the place was empty, and he knew very well that there had always been Japanese boats cruising in the nearby waters.

These ships are small in size and fast, and they can't keep up with sailing warships. Only steam ships can catch up. They have sunk no less than ten Japanese boats along the way.

But they couldn't keep chasing these Japanese pirates who were disguised as fishermen. After all, attacking Nanotsu was their goal.

As the saying goes, the monks who can run cannot run away from the temple. The merchant ships at the Nazhijin Wharf are gone, but the dock is there, and the Nazhijin City is also there.

General, do you want to enter the inland river? Liu Chen asked, Nazhijin was built beside an inland river, and the city of Nazhijin could be bombarded directly through the inland river.

You can't take this risk. Once the Japanese warships arrive, they may hide in the inland river. This inland river is narrow, and the Japanese artillery can shoot directly at the river surface, and then it will be troublesome.

Before he came, Yue Yun already had a plan. War is no longer the way it used to be. Now the final thing is to land. You lead the soldiers ashore immediately to build a position.

After all, he picked up the binoculars and looked at the pier. At this time, there were many Japanese soldiers on the pier. Some of these Japanese soldiers were armed with arquebuses, some with flintlock guns, and even a few imitation golden tents. Khanate-like artillery.

The artillery is ready!

Yue Yun said lightly, the army's tactics are changing, and the navy's tactics are also changing at the same time. Since the deployment of explosive bombs, the navy now has the ability to carry out saturated shelling on the land.

After all, there are hundreds of artillery pieces on a battleship, and there are about fifty artillery pieces even on one side. Thousands of artillery pieces are fired at the same time when more than 20 battleships descend.

However, such a high-density shelling can only be described as a luxury, but Yue Yun didn't feel bad about the shells today, because for him, he would definitely find someone to pay for the shells.

Despite the hatred in his heart, he still did not forget his true duty.

Send someone to send the treaty over, and limit them to reply within two days, otherwise we will start a full-scale war! When everything was ready, Yue Yun handed a prepared treaty document to the adjutant on the flagship.

After a while, a small boat was put down, and the soldiers holding the document treaty got down to the boat and rowed towards the pier. When they arrived at the pier, the soldiers handed the treaty to the Japanese general.

It was just that the Japanese generals threw the treaty to the soldiers at a glance, and drew a knife and threatened the soldiers who delivered the letter. As a last resort, the soldiers had to row back.

General, what did you write to make the Japanese generals so angry? Liu Chen said with great interest.

It's very simple, let the Japanese state admit defeat, cede land and pay indemnity, give Da Yu state the most preferential treatment, and then compensate for the war cost of 40 million taels of silver. Of course, this is only approximate.

Hearing this, Liu Chen smiled helplessly, which was exactly the same as the contract of Goryeo.

No wonder he is so angry. Liu Chen pouted.

The opportunity has already been given to them. If that's the case, then we can only fight. Yue Yun said excitedly, this treaty is indeed unequal, but the Japanese country has never talked about equality with the Dayu country. Now the Japanese country does not compromise. in his arms.

And this is also what the emperor meant. For island countries like his Japanese country, they must have the ability to attack their native land in order to contain them.

So, after pondering for a while, he finally shouted: Fire!

Following an order, six warships fired at the pier at the same time, and more than 300 shells covered the pier in an instant.
