Domineering Daming

The four feudal lords of Shikoku Island were taken aback. They never thought that they, who had always been peaceful, would be the first targets to be attacked!

Qingshan Zhongjun in Heiyun City quickly got the news, and his already cold face became even more ugly.

Shikoku Island is "isolated" overseas. If they want support, they must not only cross the strait, but also need a powerful fleet that can defeat the Ming Dynasty's artillery.

But the Wa country does not have one, and even if it does, it cannot be brought out now.

This is just the beginning!

For Tadatoshi Aoyama, Shikoku Island is over, the strongest Iyo domain is only 40 stone high, and the four domains add up to only 80!

The warriors they can use add up to less than [-], but the territory is so vast that they have no way to defend it!

Most importantly, he didn't intend to save him, and he couldn't.

Shan Xianheyi looked at Qingshan Zhongjun with a gloomy face, and said solemnly: "Dian, the Ming Dynasty does not play cards according to common sense. If Shikoku Island is lost, it may have a huge blow to our morale, and the government will also be furious."

Tadatoshi Aoyama looked up at him, and said, "Shikoku Island will fall in at most ten days. Itakura Shigesho, what progress is there?"

Shan Xianhe looked ugly, and said: "For the past four days, he has been taking a leisurely pace, as if he is not in a hurry at all, Dian, the villain thinks that he should have his belly broken!"

Aoyama Tadatoshi's remaining patience was worn out by the news that Cao Bianjiao's fleet blocked Shikoku Island. His eyes were cold and murderous, and he said: "Tell him, give him another day, if he can't take Shikoku Island City, I will personally send him the last [-]%!"

Caesarean section is a cruel method of suicide. Many people can't make it to the end, and someone needs to be stabbed in the back.

Shan Xianhe also showed murderous intentions on his face, and said, "Yes."

Yamagata Kazuichi came outside Shimabara Castle, saw Itakura Shigemasa still attacking the city "unhurriedly", sneered in his heart, and stepped forward and said: "Itakura Temple, Izu Mamoru asked me to tell you, tomorrow at the latest, If you fail to take Shimabara Castle, he will personally imprison him."

Shigemasa Itakura's expression was ugly, he looked up at the majestic and unattainable Shimabara Castle, gritted his teeth and said, "Turn back to Izumori, I will definitely be able to take Shimabara Castle by tomorrow evening!"

"It's better like this!" Shan Xianhe sneered, turned and left.

Itakura Shigemasa took a deep breath and said, "Call Zhong Gong back."

A warrior came out and said, "Yes."

At this time, Maori Zhonggong was in the tunnel, urging anxiously. It has been almost four days. It stands to reason that such a short distance and so many people have already opened up, but there are too many rocks. Even if you find some water, Gap, could speed it up, but still too slow!

As if hearing footsteps behind, Mao Li looked at the samurai who were still digging in full swing, and said coldly, "How far is it?"

An old man came over with a blueprint, wiped his sweat, and said, "Dian, according to my estimate, there are still five hundred zhang at most, and it will take more than two days."

Mao Li Zhonggong's face twitched violently, and said: "I will only give you half a day. Tonight, you must dig under the city wall. If you can't do it, you will all die!"

"Yes!" A group of warriors agreed in a panic, with fear in their eyes.

At this time, Shigemasa Itakura's visitor finally passed on the word that Shigemasa Itakura wanted to see Tadakashi Mori!

Maori Zhonggong returned to Itakura Shigemasa, and said bravely: "Dian, it will take another day to get through."

Itakura Shigemasa was expressionless, looking at the majestic Shimabara Castle, and said: "In the past three days, I have lost almost 2 people. If I wait another day, my people may not be as many as the people in the city. Even if you It doesn't make sense to get through."

Mao Li Zhonggong felt cold and said: "Dian, there are too many rocks underground, it's already the fastest speed, unless, unless you use gunpowder regardless."

In fact, Shigemasa Itakura could also attack the city gate recklessly, and even explode it with gunpowder, but in this way, the main battlefield is under the city gate, and the situation has not changed slightly.

He wants to break through from the inside, completely disrupt Shimabara Castle, and attack from inside and outside!

Itakura Shigemasa's eyes turned cold, he looked at Mori Tadaka and said respectfully, "Tomorrow at noon at most, if it can't be done, Izu Mamoru will let the two of us have caesarean section together!"

Mao Li Zhonggong's scalp was tight, his mind was cold, and he gritted his teeth: "Yes!"

Itakura Shigemasa turned to Goto Masao, and said, "Pull out all the artillery and bombard Shimabara Castle within a safe range. The louder the noise, the better, day and night."

Masao Goto was startled, and said, "Will the rebels in Shimabara find out?"

Itakura Shigemasu's eyes were cold, and he said: "I can't care about that much anymore, let's go."

"Yes." Masao Goto said.

Mori Zhonggong knew the purpose of Shigemasa Itakura's doing this, and also knew that this was a last stand, so he said immediately: "Yes!"

When Itakura Shigesho was preparing for the final fight, Amakusa Shiro on Shimabara Castle frowned deeply, thinking hard.

In the past few days, Itakura Shigemasa's attack has been a bit "pretentious", especially those few cannons obviously couldn't hit the city, and they fired around the four cannons from time to time, as if they were testing something, and they seemed to be covering up something .

But what it is, Shigemasa Itakura can't figure it out.

Shimabara Castle was built on the hillside. When you leave the main gate and the north gate, the other two gates are extremely small. On the mountainside, the mountain road is rugged, and it is difficult for people to leave, let alone a large army.

Heisaburo said: "Bishop, I think they are looking for our weaknesses, and then they swarmed us."

Amakusa Shiro nodded in disbelief, and said: "No matter what their purpose is, keep an eye on them, and report to me immediately if there is any situation. And the reserve army, from now on, will take turns to rest and be ready to go to the city at any time."

Itakura Shigemasa has been probing for three days. Regardless of whether he has found a flaw in Shimabara Castle, the current situation does not allow him to continue to delay. The decisive battle is coming!

"Yes." Heisaburo said in a deep voice.

Before Amakusa Shiro finished speaking, the formation of the shogunate army slowly changed. The army behind came up, and 20 troops surrounded Shimabara Castle. Only the remaining [-] artillery pieces were also launched. Within the range of the artillery on Shimabara Castle, Besides, the guns were fired slowly, not knowing what they were bombarding, but they didn't mean to stop.

The sound of gunfire outside the city rumbled, and the ground trembled like an earthquake.The samurai of the shogunate were advancing and retreating, making the believers on the city wall dare not relax at all.

Amakusa Shiro was puzzled, sitting in the church, facing the statue of Jesus, praying silently.

He couldn't figure it out, so he could only wait.

Itakura Shigemasa suppressed the tension in his heart, sat on a rock expressionlessly, looked at the brightly lit Shimabara Castle, his eyes flickered coldly.

All the big names have their own expressions, whether Itakura Shigemasa is dead or alive, they don't care at all, the most important thing is their retainers and warriors, they can't die in vain.

Maori Zhonggong was in the tunnel, it was cold and humid here, but everyone was sweating profusely, staring ahead.

Accompanied by the sound of gunfire outside, a small amount of explosives were used here to break the rocks in front or make a detour, looking for the fastest and shortest way to quickly approach Shimabara Castle.

With the cover outside, the sound of explosions and tremors here are completely covered up, so they can move forward boldly with confidence.

As the sky was getting darker, it seemed that there was only the sound of cannons outside, but the tunnel was still icy, and the torches were connected one by one, and the bustle was still there.

"Diandian, there is a way. There is a rice here. We can save a lot of effort and get close to Shimabara Castle. As long as we blow up the foundation stone in the ground, we can enter Shimabara Castle without anyone noticing!" The blueprint samurai trembled with excitement, and said loudly.

Maori Zhonggong couldn't wait to rush forward. Sure enough, there were waterways and culverts, all winding forward. He ran forward non-stop until he reached the end, pulling past the warrior holding the blueprint. Said: "Where is the front, where is the front?"

The blueprint samurai calculated for a while, and said excitedly: "The front of the hall is at most five feet away from the Shimabara city wall, and it is far away from the mountain, a relatively flat section."

Mao Li Zhonggong was even more excited, and said: "Continue digging for me, I will go to Itacang Hall, let the Xiyi artillery cover it, and blast the city wall!"

"Yes!" A group of warriors responded loudly.They are even more excited because they don't have to die.
