On the tenth day of September in the fifteenth year of Hongxing's reign in the Ming Dynasty, Spanish artillery shells accurately hit the outer wall of Benxun Temple. What was being fired were six Spanish 6-pound field cannons, which were fired solidly.

Although the bullet did not penetrate the outer wall of Honxunji Temple, it still loosened the rammed earth, and the mud on the wall fell straight down. In this case, there was nothing that could be done about the wall of Honxunji Temple.

There was no one standing, so the defenders had to come down from the wall and guard the shooting openings on the wall.

Zhu Cihuan also felt that something was not going wrong. Previously, the Shimazu army was firing blank guns, which was very lively and crackling, but they could not kill anyone. Moreover, they only fired guns without charging. In fact, they were just firing. The prince was quite happy at that time.

, felt that it was still possible for him to persist until the reinforcements arrived - the messenger for help had been sent out, and the Shimadzu army did not stop him. The messenger sent out by Masaki Hoshina to ask for help was a "flying kick", which is the "flying kick" in ancient Japan.

"Express" does not ride a horse or drive a car, but relies on two human legs to run. It is said that it can run no slower than a horse.

On the way of the army going south, Hoshino Masahui built a temporary "flying foot station" every fifty or sixty miles. There were a dozen stations along the 800-mile mountain road. It could take up to three days to reach the riverside fort. From

There is an expedited journey of 600 miles between the Riverside Fort and the American Castle. It takes up to two days to deliver the message.

Three days plus two days equals five days. And it will take at least three days for the American Mansion Ming Army to complete its assembly at the Riverside Fort, and then set off from the American Fort... Even if Zhu Cihuan's troops opened the way first, these 800 miles of mountainous terrain are still

It’s not easy to pass. You have to walk for 20 days anyway, right?

So Zhu Cihuan must persist at Honxunji Temple for at least a month... If the little lady Shimazu is willing to let go, of course it won't be a problem. But now the little lady has turned her back and even pulled out a cannon!

Zhu Cihuan, who was sitting in the main hall of Honxun Temple, originally had a little, no, a lot of good impressions of Shimazu Noyoshi, but now he has lost all of them and is left with a gnashing of teeth hatred!

As the cannons roared outside, he cursed in a low voice in the palace: "Damn little bitch, if I escape this disaster, I will definitely catch you and punish you... Don't be afraid of pain when the time comes!

"

When he was enjoying his mouth, Masaki Hoko suddenly called him: "Your Highness! Can you explain it more clearly?"

Be clear? What does it mean?

Zhu Cihuan looked back and found that Baoke Zhenghui was holding a notebook and a brush in his hand. He seemed to be recording something? Was it to record his own words?

"What, please make it clearer?" Zhu Cihuan suddenly felt guilty. What he just said was not a good thing. It would be a bit embarrassing to record it and pass it on to future generations.

"Of course it's a death poem!" Hoko Masaki shouted, "It's too noisy here, I can't hear you clearly!"

There was still a rumbling of gunfire outside! So Baoke Zhenghui didn't hear clearly what Zhu Cihuan was saying. He thought he was reciting a death poem.

"What? What is a death poem?" Zhu Cihuan didn't understand this.

"It's the poem that the general left behind before he died!"

"Nonsense!" Zhu Cihuan stood up suddenly and angrily said to Baoke Zhenghui, "Why is this king dying? I will live a hundred years longer!"

"Your Highness," Baoke quickly explained, "this, this death poem was not written in advance. It was written in advance and carried with you... There are no holes in the bullets on the battlefield, and you may die at any time. If you want to

If you don’t prepare in advance, it will be too late by then!”

"You, you, you are cursing me!" Zhu Cihuan was almost furious. Baoke Zhenghui had always liked him very much, so why are you talking nonsense now?

Hoshina Masaki didn't know what to say for a moment. What time is it now? Why doesn't this prince have any awareness of "passing away"?

At this moment, the sound of gunfire outside suddenly stopped.

Zhu Cihuan's face looked a little better and he said to Baoke: "Did you hear that? They don't have sex anymore!"

"Your Majesty," Masaki Hoshina's face turned pale, "a section of the outer wall must have been blown down, and the Shimazu family's musketeers are about to charge!"

After the artillery hits the infantry, charge forward!

Zhu Cihuan's face instantly became as pale as a sheet of paper. He didn't even have time to talk nonsense with Baoke, and he took a quick step and ran out of the hall.

When he arrived outside, he saw that a long section of the earth wall in front of him on the left had collapsed, which was twenty steps wide - this earth wall was not very strong!

However, the samurai defending Honxon Temple did not appear panicked. Behind the uncollapsed earthen wall, a group of samurai carrying matchlock guns had already formed a team and were inspecting the firearms.

Baoke Zhenghui also rushed out at this time and brought several warriors to Zhu Cihuan. When he saw Zhu Cihuan standing there like an iron tower, he felt a little more admiration in his heart - Zhu Cihuan was a big man among a group of dwarf warriors.

That’s what stands out from the crowd!

The enemy must know the king's bravery!

Thinking of this, Baoke Zhenghui grabbed Zhu Cihuan and ran towards the gap. Zhu Cihuan's "flagship" behind him also hugged the big man and ran forward.

Zhu Cihuan was a little confused when he went to the battlefield for the first time. He was dragged up a gentle slope formed by a collapsed earth wall in a daze, and then someone put a spear in his hand.

What does this mean? When Zhu Cihuan was wondering, Hoshina Masaki was already shouting in Japanese.

"The greatest warrior king of the Ming Dynasty is here! Who dares to come and fight!"

Following Hoshina's banner, he also shouted: "The greatest warrior king of the Ming Dynasty is here! Who dares to come and fight!"

Well, he was obviously a fool king, but now he has been praised as a warrior king by Hosuko! But this fool king doesn't understand Japanese and doesn't know what happened. Moreover, the Shimadzu family's infantry is still far away, two hundred steps away, so Zhu Cihuan also

He was not scared to death - he was scared, so he is not timid. Even if you are timid, you will not become an American by trading stocks!

When Hoshiko blew it, the morale of the defenders, who had been a little low, immediately rose and they cheered loudly: "Hehehe, hehehe..."

On the opposite side, hundreds of Shimadzu troops who were advancing in phalanx formation also stopped and turned back to look at their own main formation.

The general has come out to "discuss it together", is His Highness Naiji going to send someone out to fight?

Shimazu Noyoshi was looking there with a telescope. He was almost stunned and almost drooling...

"Your Highness, please allow me to go out to capture the Ming Dynasty King!"

Someone wants to fight!

Naiji had no choice but to put down the binoculars and took a look at the man. It turned out to be Togo Shigetada, a swordsman from the Satsuma era. This man was an expert in slashing people, and he was also proficient in spears and bows. If he was allowed to challenge Zhu Cihuan in a one-on-one fight, Zhu Cihuan would be really good.

Prepare your death poem.

Of course Shimazu Noyoshi could not let Dongxiang kill Zhu Cihuan, so he quickly said: "Chongzhong, that is the king of the Ming Dynasty, how are you qualified to ask for him?"

You have to talk about your family status when asking for help!

Togo Shigetada was just a low-level warrior, so what qualifications did he have to challenge Zhu Cihuan in a duel? Even if he went out to fight, Zhu Cihuan could find someone to do it for him.

Naiyoshi added: "I am the only one here who can challenge me in the name of the Shimazu family governor. But as a female, how can I be the opponent of the Ming Dynasty Warrior King?"

In fact, Zhu Cihuan doesn't know martial arts. He is just big and has a few kilograms of strength. If he really had a duel with Naiji, he would probably lose... Although Naiji is a female streamer, he also trains with Dongxiang Shigechu

The current style of swordsmanship shown in Satsuma.

"What should we do now?" Dongxiang asked.

Shimazu Noyoshi thought for a while and said: "Order the First Division to stop advancing, and then send someone to ask the California Governor for instructions and ask him if he is willing to challenge the Ming Dynasty Warrior King in a duel?"

She was actually stalling for time... She was not sure whether there were reinforcements behind Zhu Cihuan? If there were, her fate with the Warrior King might not be over.
