The two armies in the New Year and Japan fought bloody battles in Kitakyushu, but Li Luo from Takama Island was leisurely and happy.

He temporarily entrusted all Jianghua Navy and Hai Yong to command Luo Yu, Qianhu of Ninghai Navy. He asked Luo Yu to tie the five thousand navy under his command into one rope to train naval battles.

Luo Yu is a rare navy general. Although he has been in the position of thousands of households over the years, his actual talent is able to lead one navy and ten thousand households.

After half a month, Luo Yu integrated Jianghua Navy, Ninghai Navy, and Hai Yong into one, and also trained several tactics to deal with the Japanese Navy.

Luo Yu even personally selected 200 people who were proficient in water and trained "water ghosts" to be used specifically to dive into the Japanese navy generals.

Jianghua Township Yong belonged to the army, while Li Luo handed it over to Xiao Bei, Wu Yan and others, and repeatedly trained the landing and beach grabbing tactics at high intensity.

The beach grabbing tactics designed by Li Luo and Cui Xuxiu Ning include a lot of tactical deceptions, and even refer to the landing tactics of the Ugly Navy in the Pacific War II in later generations, which is a combination of virtual and real.

The army and the navy were all in charge, so Li Luo was so happy that he was free and easy. He became a hand-off manager and set up a pergola on the beach. He either went swimming in the sea to catch fish, or grilled fish and lobsters on the beach, and personally invited his subordinates to their daily lives.

On this day, several Korean sailors actually caught several surviving Japanese women by the sea. These Japanese women escaped the previous massacre of the Yuan army, but hid in the cave. They did not dare to come out to find food until they finished eating the food, and were caught by the patrol soldiers of Jianghua Navy.

The Jianghua Navy's military discipline was much stricter under Li Luo's rectification, so the Gaoli soldiers who captured the Japanese girl did not dare to do anything wrong, but instead took Li Luo to ask for disposal.

Li Luo saw that the oldest of four women was only in their early twenties and the youngest of them was only thirteen or thirteen or fourteen years old. What could he do?

Especially when Li Luo saw their terrified eyes like deer, he had no choice.

If you let it go like this, it will definitely not work. It may leave some hidden dangers. Kill it? Li Luo is not a murderous man like Xindu. How could he raise a butcher knife to the women from the Japanese people?

Killing is definitely not a happy thing for Li Luo, especially killing such a weak person.

"Please take them to the beach, or take them to behead them?" said a soldier from Goryeo. To be honest, he was a little reluctant to let them go. These Japanese young ladies look really good.

But he also knew Li Luo's temper and the navy of humiliating innocent women was absolutely impossible.

"Don't kill them, this coach has its own uses." Li Luo suddenly thought of a solution.

The soldier of Goryeo was a little speechless and thought to himself, General, how can you call yourself the commander? We are just small partial teachers.

"Come here, give these Japanese women to Mr. Shao Er and be his maids. Anyway, they are all Japanese. Just say that they are gifts given to him by me." Li Luo ordered.

Because of Li Luo's compassion, these women became a blessing in disguise and became the maid of the noble son Shao Erxinzi.

Who knew that just a few days later, Shao Erxinzi taught them to arrange a dance and sing a sing. Then, when Li Luo held a beach lobster banquet again, there were more singing and dancing to cheer them up.

The main force of the Yuan army in front fought to death, but did not want Li Luo to enjoy himself in the rear.

At the beach lobster banquet, Li Luo and his generals sat around him, and the "guest officials" Shao Erxinzi was of course also at the seat. At this time, a bright moon shone on the sea and sky, bonfires burned on the beach, sea waves, sea breezes, and the scenery is as poetic as picturesque.

Under the moonlight, four women danced gracefully, singing the song of the new lyrics composed by Shao Erxinzi.

"The moon in the sea is bright and the flowing light is traversing, and the sound and appearance are separated by two directions. The sky is one direction, and I will be drunk, and I will be drunk and return to my hometown..."

The song is about to stop, and another song starts again, the lyrics are

"The west country is like many years of drifting, how can you ask the sky about the past? I neglect the way home from the end of the world, and look at the west capital and cry. The sea waves are filled with mist under the moon, and the gold in the nine states is filled with beacon smoke..."

The poem is clear and sad, and the tune is graceful. Although the four women's Chinese pronunciation is not accurate, the tone is graceful and has a unique taste lingering in their ears. Li Luo and the generals nodded frequently when they heard it, but Wu Xinzi looked sad and tears were hazy. Even the folding fan in their hands trembled slightly.

When Li Luo saw the appearance of Shao Erxinzi's children, he couldn't help but smile. In his opinion, Shao Erxinzi belonged to Cao Zhi, although he was literary, he was sentimental. Shaoxiong was talented and talented, and compared with his brother, the general of the defense of Jiuzhou, he was really a hero.

Such a loser with a noble status is best to use it, and it is not easy to get hurt. Therefore, Li Luo is so "polite" to Shao Erxinzi.

"Young Erjun is really literary, I'm not as good as you!" Li Luo laughed and took off a roasted lobster and said in a pun. "This lobster is a guest at the Dragon Palace Hall in the morning and makes Chinese food for heroes. What a pity. Come on, this shrimp is my coach who is fishing and roasting, so I will give it to Young Erjun!"

Shao Erxinzi smiled bitterly and said, "Then I thank you."

If Jin Fangqing knew that Li Luo was so carefree on Tsuma Island, he would definitely regret his decision.

If Cui Xiuning knew Li Luo's current state, she would definitely despise her concern for him.

However, although Li Luo and the generals were happy, they were actually loose and tight. On the temporary observation building, there were people observing the surrounding waters at all times. Once an abnormality was found, all the generals could take their place as soon as possible.

Li Luo guessed that the two sides in front of the Yuan and Japanese sides were probably fighting to the point of blood. The Yuan army could not land in Kitakyushu, so they probably would go south to attack Hirado?

The Jiangnan Army probably hasn't arrived yet.

The information about the Japanese army's casualties in the Chinese New Year War has been vague. This proves from the contrary that the losses of the Japanese country must be very large, because the Japanese country has concealed or reduced its own military losses from ancient times to the present.

Moreover, after the Chinese New Year War, a large number of samurai families went bankrupt, and many soldiers were even in debt. The shogunate was unable to support it, which led to the Hojo family's indifference. Within a few decades, the Kamakura Shogunate was destroyed. This also shows that the Japanese country suffered a lot in the Chinese New Year War.

Li Luo hopes that Xindu and Shao Erjingzi will be better off making the dog's brains. The more fierce the bite they both bite, the happier he will be.

In total, at most half a month, the supplementary military supplies from Goryeo will arrive. When the military supplies are obtained, the six thousand secret route troops from the east of the Haidang also set off. He happened to leave Tsushima Island and go to Yakushima north of Ryukyu and south of Satsuma to meet with the secret route troops.

The two armies merged more than 14,000 troops, which was enough to do great things.

As for how to explain to Jianghua Navy and Ninghai Navy at that time, it is easy to deal with. Just say that the Dark Road Army is a partial division of the Jiangnan Army, they will definitely not think too much about it. Although they are the army of Goryeo and Yuanting, they are their commander after all.

Jianghua Township Yong and Hai Yong are completely his own soldiers, so there is no need to explain. Regarding the matter of keeping the secret, Li Luo had already arranged for the members and officers of the Township Yong to emphasize to the Township Yongs.

…………

On the 25th of June, in order to boost morale, Shao Er Jingzi decided to take the initiative to attack. The Kyushu Camp sent 5,000 elite troops to attack the Yuan army camp stationed on Iki Island.

In the eyes of Japanese generals such as Shaoer Jingzi, the Yuan Kou has been taking the initiative to attack recently and is arrogant. He must have expected that the warriors of the Divine Kingdom would take the initiative to attack, and he would definitely be caught off guard by the careless Yuan Kou.

Five thousand elite soldiers took more than a hundred flexible "Bong Xiaozai" and more than ten "Closing Ships" that moved quickly, carrying pine oil, sulfur and other fire-driven objects. Taking advantage of the night's cover, they quietly drove from Daizaifu Water Castle to Iki Island.

The Japanese army planned to follow the example of the Wu and Shu coalition forces during the Three Kingdoms period and burned Iki!

Unexpectedly, the commander of the Goryeo Army, Jin Fangqing, Hong Chaqiu and others were veterans who had been through battles for a long time, and were cautious and prepared for the Japanese army's night attack.

Therefore, the Japanese army's sneak attacks at night were not only unable to make up for it, but were also tightly stalked by the Goryeo Navy. The Yuan army warships were taller than the Japanese "Bow Xiaozao" and "Closing Ship" and were equipped with large combat equipment. The number of Japanese naval divisions was at a disadvantage. How could they be the opponent of the Yuan army naval that had been prepared?

Although the Japanese ambush fleet relied on the advantage of flexible maneuvers to escape from the encirclement, it also lost dozens of ships. The five thousand elite soldiers who set off only returned 3,000 people.

The Japanese army, who could not steal chickens and lose rice, dared not take the initiative to attack easily.

However, the Japanese army did not defend completely on land. At least Takeki Ji Chang, Matsuura Party, and Kono Party formed a maritime team (mainly Japanese pirates), and always elusively harassed the Yuan army camp.

Zhuqi Ji Chang was very capable of fighting water. He did not confront the Yuan army fleet head-on, but divided the sea team of nearly 10,000 people into dozens of small teams, and took turns to harass the Yuan army from all directions.

The "sea warrior" Takeki Kazuki, who is skilled and brave, even brought the best samurai and pirates with the best water quality to sneak into the sea at night, secretly climbed onto the Yuan army warships, and assassinated the Yuan army, and succeeded several times.

Although the Japanese naval team did not cause any losses to the Yuan army, its harassment day and night caused a lot of trouble to the Yuan army. Even the Korean soldiers and Mongolian soldiers did not dare to take a nap at night, for fear that Japanese pirates like water ghosts would come up to assassinate.

After enduring the troubles of the Yuan army for a few days, they finally set sail south on July 1st.

Xindu decided to change the attack direction from Hakata Bay to Ivan Bay, from directly attacking Daizaifu to attack Hirado and Shiga Island.

First of all, there is no stone wall defense in these two places, so you can go down in one fell swoop. Second, once these two islands fall, they will lead directly to the land of Kyushu. Third, it is not too far from Kitakyushu. Once you land from there, you can attack Dazaifu north, with a journey of less than 200 miles.

When the Japanese army saw the main force of the Yuan army heading south, how dare they place their main force in Kitakyushu?

On the one hand, Shao Er Jingzi sent a Pegasus to Shimazu Hirado, who was guarding Hirado, and strengthened his vigilance. On the one hand, he personally led the elite Kyushu to the south to support. On the other hand, he ordered Takeki's maritime team to pretend to intercept the Yuan army and take the stance of a decisive battle at sea to attract the attention of the Yuan army, delay the pace of the Yuan army going south, and gain time.

This trick really worked. So, a few days later, when the Yuan army slowly arrived at Ivan Bay in the north of Shigashima, Shimazu Hiroyuki, who was defending Hirado, was not only ready to fight, but also the Kyushu main force team, which was a little 2000-Yuezi, also arrived.

After the Yuan army arrived, without saying a word, they directly attacked Shiga Island, which is closest to Kyushu. Thousands of Japanese troops on Shiga Island fought to the death, but because there was no stone wall defense, how could they be the enemy of the Yuan army?

A fierce group of Yuan army charged and destroyed the protection of the Japanese army on Shiga Island. After a bloody battle, the Yuan army finally occupied Shiga Island, and more than 4,000 defenders on Shiga Island were all killed in battle.

The Mongolian soldiers cut off the heads of the Japanese soldiers, lit a few feet of bonfire on the island, and invited shamans from the army to worship the Mongolian warriors who died in battle.

While the Yuan army captured Shiga Island, the Japanese army temporarily built fortifications on the opposite coast. After the Yuan army captured Shiga Island, they waited for the tide to fall, hoping that the road to land would be exposed after the tide, so they landed directly along the road after the tide.

But what angered Xindu and others was that they waited for two days, but they did not wait until the road to land was revealed after the tide of Shiga Island was falling.

However, the Japanese army's fortifications on the other side were built in a decent manner.

Shiga Island is a small island, not enough to station so many Yuan army, and the Yuan army did not build a camp, so they could only wait for the tide to fall.

When the tide finally came out and the ground leading to the opposite shore was exposed, it was already July 7th.

This day is Ghost Festival, and many people may be destined to die.

The largest bloody battle since the war broke out in Hirado.

Due to the narrow battlefield, it is difficult to deploy troops, Xindu, Jin Fangqing and others divided the 60,000 troops into three teams, and mixed together to attack the coast in turn.

Tens of thousands of elite Japanese troops were condescendingly with fortifications. The bloody battle began to heat up.

The two sides had equal strengths, but the Japanese army had all the advantages of geographical advantage. Under the attack of the Yuan army, they were repeatedly blocked in front of the tenacious Japanese army, and they could not break through the Japanese defense line for a long time.

In the afternoon of the bloody battle, the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties and nearly 10,000 corpses left, and finally retreated to the Matsuura Peninsula.

However, although the Yuan army, which was also seriously injured, occupied Hirado Island, it encountered the second Japanese army line on the Matsuura Peninsula when landing in Kyushu.

The second line of defense on the Matsuura Peninsula was built by Shao Er Jingzi for several days to mobilize the people around him to repair it. The people used Trojan horses to repair a mud wall less than ten feet high. Therefore, there was also a trench more than ten feet wide and more than half a feet deep in front of the wall.

There are also earthen walls and trenches.

Behind the earth walls and trenches were tens of thousands of Japanese troops. The worried Shao Er Jingzi personally guarded the second line and ordered the people behind to make every effort to build the third or even the fourth line of defense!

When the Yuan army saw the earthen walls and trenches, they were stunned.

"Damn coward! When this coach attacks, no one will stay with the old woman, the old and the young!" Xindu hated these fortifications. Can't he fight with dignity?

Although Xindu called the Japanese army a coward, he knew very well in his heart that the Japanese army was not a soft persimmon. Although these people were short, they had a strong temper and were as strong as wild dogs on the grassland, which was very difficult to fight.

In today's bloody battle, the Yuan army had already suffered seven or eight thousand casualties. I originally thought that it would be able to land this time. Unexpectedly, there was a second earthen wall trench!

Fight or withdraw?

The Yuan generals suddenly had differences. If they continued to attack, even if they fought, at least tens of thousands of soldiers and horses would be killed or injured.

But if it is withdrawn, today's losses will be wasted and all previous efforts will be wasted!
To be continued...
