In the early morning, the first ray of sunshine shone on the Wenquanjin Pier, where hundreds of corpses lay everywhere.

Some warriors were stabbed like hedgehogs by spears, some soldiers were cut by Japanese swords to their bones, and some retainers were penetrated by bird guns, which showed the cruelty of war.

The blood that flowed from them had dried up on the ground, and the stenched intestines were scattered with the stench of food residues. The bodies were lying here but no one had to deal with them.

A morning breeze blew, and a chaotic gas of blood and foul smell filled the place, but it attracted a few creatures such as vultures and sea crabs.

At this moment, there was still a high "Maori family flag" floating on the top of the city, and the Maori army was still tenaciously standing on their positions.

Although Otomo Navy came in full force this time, the fortifications of the Maori family were very perfect. Although the Maori family was attacked, the two sides did not decide the outcome, and the war was destined to continue.

In the bay, many scattered wooden boards and warship wrecks were washed to the shore, and corpses swollen from sea water had become feed for fish.

Otomo Navy has retreated to the warship and is reorganizing in the bay.

Although they failed to capture Hot Springs in one fell swoop, they also defeated the Maori navy and cleared the obstacles on the sea. Now occupying this bay, they are eyeing the Hot Springs Rule.

Compared with the forces and weapons of both sides, it is a matter of time before Hot Onion Rior was captured. In particular, their head Otomo Soru led the main force to invade the Mori family. The Mori family must have no time to take care of Hot Onion Tsu. Kumaya Nobunaga was in an isolated and helpless state.

"Kumaya Nobunaga, your old master is dead, and the Mori family is destined to perish. If you surrender to our Otomo family now, our master will definitely not treat you badly!" Yoshioka Nagato was also worried about the sacrifice of his subordinates, but surrendered loudly to the top of the city.

Kumatani Nobunaga was injured in the battle last night, but he still stood on the city. Facing the olive branch that Yoshioka Changzeng sent, he responded coldly: "You are fooled! Our head is alive now. This time it is a rumor deliberately spread by people with ulterior motives. Your Otomo family believes in this matter so easily!"

"Haha... If Maorimoto was not dead, why did you learn from Zhuge Kongming to use a substitute to make a mystery when you withdrew your troops a few days ago? This move clearly proves that your head is dead. At this point, do you still want to deceive us?" Yoshioka Nagato smiled coldly and immediately questioned with the information.

Kumaya Nobunaga sighed helplessly, but revealed the truth: "Our head was assassinated by the Nizi family, so he implemented this bad strategy, but our head is still safe!"

Things were so wonderful. When their wise head of the family was injured, in order to prevent the enemy from taking the opportunity to counterattack, they borrowed Zhuge Liang's trick to withdraw their troops.

But I didn't expect that this move would backfire. The substitute was known, which led to the Otomo family's misunderstanding of the rumors that their head was dead and then launched a large-scale attack.

"In this case, even if your head of the family does not die, it will be long before long! If the Maori family was led by that little kid, how long can your Maori family last? Kumatani Nobunaga, you should surrender to our Otomo family quickly. Our head of the family will definitely not treat you badly!" Yoshioka Nagato made his own judgment, and seemed gloating and continued to surrender.

Kumaya Nobunaga did not know the specific injuries of the head of the family, but he said suspiciously: "Our head of the family is just scratching the fur, but now he is using the strategy of asking you to get into the trap. If you wait for reinforcements to arrive, I will definitely wipe your neck with your own hands!"

"The more you say this, the more you feel guilty! There will definitely be no reinforcements coming this time. I can give you half a stick of incense to consider it. If I don't surrender, I will take this place today!" Yoshioka Changzeng seemed to see through everything, and seemed to be determined to tell the truth.

Although he did not take Kumaya Nobunaga's army seriously, he was also worried that there would be more dreams. Now he did not know whether Maori Yuan was dead or injured. Only by taking this place as soon as possible can they better face the variables of Maori Yuan.

But they have to admit that once Maori Yuan was not dead. With the wisdom of the old fox, they really could not interfere with the territory of the Maori family, and they would not be able to successfully seize the Shijian Silver Mine.

That's right, the best result now is that Kumatani Nobunaga surrenders voluntarily, otherwise he would have to fight quickly, even if it would cost a heavy price.

Kumatani Nobunaga's heart was shaken, but he quickly shook his head firmly and refused, "No need! My Kumatani family has been a retainer of the Maori family for generations. Even if I died in battle today, I would not be able to surrender!"

"Haha... Since that's the case, don't blame me for not giving you a chance, attack!" Yoshioka Tsubaki saw that he could not persuade him to surrender, and immediately ordered in a deep voice.

With a command, hundreds of warships rowed towards the dock again, but started a second round of attack.

The vanguard troops were no longer affected by insufficient light, but rushed to the dock with corpses all over the field to launch a new round of attacks towards the city head of the Hot Spring Ru.

Kumatani Nobunaga's arm was injured, but he directed his subordinates to defend themselves and smashed the stones and rolling wood they had prepared earlier downwards.

Otoyo's army relied on the superior number of people and rushed towards the Maori army with a desperate attempt. Although the rolling stones and falling wood made them bloody, relying on their bravery, the two sides quickly met in close combat.

The sound of weapons colliding between the two sides was endless, and people kept getting knives and falling to the ground, and blood quickly dyed this new battlefield red.

Yoshioka Nagato watched his troops advance step by step, but only looked at the falling bodies, and felt a pain in his heart. It would be fine if he could snatch this silver mine, but otherwise he would have suffered a big loss.

Kumatani Nobunaga was immediately anxious and watched his subordinates fall down, but he knew that if there were no reinforcements, the place would soon be lost.

At this moment, his heart couldn't help but shake. Although surrender would lead to a bad reputation, his life could be at least preserved and he could also preserve a certain degree of strength.

Boom!

Just when the vanguards of both sides were in a difficult situation to part with, a black shell flew from the sea and hit a main mast with a sharp sound of breaking through the air.

The main mast "clicked" and the broken piece hit the deck heavily, smashing several sailors who had not yet reacted, and flew everywhere.

Such a loud bombardment immediately aroused the high vigilance of the Otomo Navy. When they saw a fleet appearing on the sea level, especially a Chinese-character flag hanging on the ship, they couldn't help but feel a chill.

But no matter how powerful they are among the Japanese powerhouses, they will always be just younger brothers when facing the joint fleet that has dominated the Japanese Sea for many years.

"Combined Fleet?"

Yoshioka Nagazuki looked at the high-speed high-cannon slowly coming, and suddenly he was confused as if he was sank.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The shells weighing more than ten pounds flew over with the whistling sound and landed heavily in this bay. The Japanese warship without keels was smashed to pieces and screamed in tears.

this……

Kumatani Nobunaga clearly saw this scene at the top of the city wall. Although his reputation for the joint fleet was already well-known, he still couldn't calm down after seeing the Otomo Navy warships being dispersed.

The Maori soldiers looked at the shells flying towards them and swallowed secretly. At this moment, they were extremely glad that these shells were not coming to them, otherwise they might have fled in a panic.

Faced with the joint fleet that bullied the weak, the Otomo Navy immediately hung the flag of war-free.

"Didn't your joint business group always emphasize that it's just coming to our Japan to do business and not participating in our domestic war?" Yoshioka Nagato asked angrily, facing the fierce Hai Batian.

Since the joint business groups opened up Japan's trade market, although they savagely occupied Japanese waters, they did abide by the business rules of not intervening in the battlefield.

It is precisely for this reason that all forces in Japan, large and small, regard the joint business groups as guests and are willing to establish friendly trade partnerships with the joint business groups.

In particular, some weak lords even planted economic crops such as ginger and cotton, thus exchanging a large amount of supplies with the joint merchant group and thus strengthening their own strength.

But the things were so strange, but I didn't expect the Joint Fleet to appear here, and I didn't expect them to take the initiative to join the war.

"The Maori family has rented Hot Spring Ruo to us. Now this place belongs to us. Please ask you Otomi Naruto to leave quickly!" Hai Batian said proudly with the contract.

"Yes, our Maori family has rented Hot Spring Tsu to the United Business Group!" Maori Huimoto was standing next to Hai Batian and immediately witnessed.

"Ohtomo family does not agree with this contract. Hot Onsen Tsu belongs to our Ohtomo family!" Yoshioka Nagato knew that this was a means of protecting the Mori family, but he said with a tough attitude.

When Maori Hiromoto heard this, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at the tall Hai Batian worriedly.

Facing Yoshioka Changzeng's obstacle, Hai Batian said coldly: "I, Hai Batian, explain it again! Hot Spring Tin is now owned by our joint business group. Let's leave immediately, otherwise we don't blame our joint business group for not giving you Otomo's family face!"

"This place is our Japanese territory, so how can you outsiders be involved? If you want to fight today, you will fight!" Yoshioka Nagazumaki felt that he was provoked and responded hard.

He knew that in order to protect Ishimi Silver Mine, the Maori family determined that there was reason to rent Hot Spring to a powerful joint business group, and the lease was also considered compliant.

It was only after they worked hard to get to this point, and they were about to seize the hot springs. Why should the United Merchants Group rob their victory?

That's right, although he knew that the joint fleet was very powerful, he did not intend to compromise with the small joint business group, but wanted to fight with these merchants.

"Our joint fleet hasn't taken action for too long, so someone dares to blow his nose at us! Boys, kill them for me, don't let any ship go!" Hai Batian's anger surged, and he gave instructions with the arrogance of China.

As the order was issued, the soldiers on the warship acted quickly as if they were injected with chicken blood.

Boom!

The four three-masted gunships lined up in a row quickly roared, and the muzzles of hundreds of Thor's cannons were heading towards the bay, and then bombarded hundreds of warships of Otomo Navy.

In fact, it is also a bit of a bad luck for Yoshioka to grow up. The conventional configuration of the three-masted gunship in the third city is two, but it happened that Hai Batian's inspection came here and its combat power exceeded twice.

Bang!

More than a dozen kilograms of lead bullets were like rain of bullets. Even if they hit the sea, they splashed three or four feet high, and the sound was amazing.

Some shells hit Japanese warships accurately. Even if they were not broken into pieces, they still made the hull's wood chips fly, and were accompanied by the screams of soldiers.

The wealthy and powerful joint fleet vented its anger for nearly a year, and the shells seemed to be something that cost money. This round was not completely over yet, and some heavy artillery had already started the second round of bombardment.

The sea water in the small bay seemed to be boiling, and the shells fell continuously into the bay.

Whether it is an old warship that has been disrepaired or a new warship that has just been launched, it is actually the same in the eyes of the United Fleet: they are all shipwrecks that cannot withstand the bombardment.

The same is true. Even though the main ship that Yoshioka's long-grown battleship was not sunk immediately when facing the bombardment, it still became shaky.

As long as people who are not blind know that this is not a contest of level at all!

this……

Although Yoshioka Changzeng had known the power of the joint fleet, he never expected that it would be so powerful that their powerful Otomo Navy had no power to resist.

"Kill them all!"

In fact, it was not only Yoshioka Matsuki who was surprised, but also Mori Hiromoto felt suffocated, and his hands were also clenched with excitement and prayed secretly.

The powerful joint fleet did not even give the Otomo Navy the opportunity to raise the white flag, as if setting off firecrackers, and the shells fell to the bay without a stop.

Hundreds of Japanese warships were like paper. In the end, every time they were hit by a shell, the Japanese warships immediately disintegrated and the soldiers on the ship fell into the water.

The war losses of an army reach 30%, and even the strictest troops will collapse. Now the Otomo Navy is already running around, with only the idea of ​​survival in her heart.

A man took the initiative to jump to the sea with his floating bag, but he happened to be hit by a cannonball, but a blood-covered column of water splashed.

Bang!

When the joint fleet saw the Otomo Navy fleeing to both sides, they immediately crashed heavily and directly crushed the vulnerable Japanese warships with their hull.

don't want!

Yoshioka Changzeng had already ordered the main warship to escape, but he just looked at a cannonball flying towards him, and his whole body was frozen in a terrified expression, and then his whole body was smashed by the cannonballs and flew everywhere.
Chapter completed!
