Ming Dynasty: Huddled in Beiping and became the magistrate of the county. Chapter 276, Burning and Killing! During this period, the Japanese country was still in the midst of civil strife in the Northern and Southern Dynasties.
In addition to the Southern and Northern Dynasties, there are also various large and small forces in the surrounding areas, which are dependent on the emperors of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, but are independent.
Tsushima Island is also equivalent to a small vassal state.
The feudal lord is the So clan.
The Sou family's success in occupying Tsushima Island was due to the Sou family's ancestor Zong Shigshang, who pacified the Abiri family.
Subsequently, the clan clan became the rulers of Tsushima Island.
Tsushima Island is mountainous and there is not much flat land for farming. The wealthy families and royal families of Japan's main state allowed their clans to occupy Tsushima Island and only had to pay some taxes to the shogunate every year.
Even later, the Yuan Dynasty attacked the Japanese country twice and severely damaged the clan.
Tsushima Island is still ruled by the clan.
After the Yuan Dynasty retreated, and there were civil strife in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Japanese fishermen often escaped from Japan by boat and came to Tsushima Island.
Because the clan of Tsushima Island can take the fishermen to Goryeo on the opposite side, or to the Ming Dynasty further away, to rob those people.
The people of Goryeo on the opposite side are not only very wealthy, but they are also very weak, just like sheep. They can be allowed to rob, humiliate, or even attack and kill wantonly.
After a successful robbery, they will be well fed and clothed for the next year.
If they can successfully rob the Ming Dynasty once, they can immediately become rich people on Tsushima Island, and they will not have to worry about starvation or cold for the next five years.
Therefore, Tsushima Island gradually became a stronghold for Japanese fishermen to plunder Goryeo and Ming Dynasty.
Any Japanese fishermen who want to plunder Goryeo or the Ming Dynasty will first come to Tsushima Island to gather, and then go together.
So.
Tsushima Island is actually relatively prosperous.
Of course, the military strength is also very strong.
However, they never expected that in the cold winter, they would all be hiding indoors to avoid the cold.
Someone actually came to attack them!
Could it be that the leaders and generals of Honshu want to take back Tsushima Island?
But no matter what, you can’t burn the mountain!
All the Japanese on Tsushima Island are full of resentment.
When the Japanese arrived halfway along the road, they finally saw the Japanese running back.
After hearing the whole story, these Japanese people became even more furious!
This time, it was the weak Koryo people who dared to counterattack their Japanese country? Not only did they burn their ships, but they also set fire to the mountains. They were really looking for death!
Immediately, the Japanese quickly sent two warriors to inform the sect, and the remaining Japanese headed toward the harbor with murderous intent.
……
At the harbor, watching the surrounding fires getting bigger and bigger, Zhu Di ordered the ships to evacuate to the center of the bay.
It wasn't until there was only pitch black ashes left around that Zhu Di sent out a group of soldiers to search again.
"Your Highness, these Koreans are much more serious than I, Yanshan Guard!"
Standing on the ship, Guo An, holding a clairvoyant eye, said leisurely to Zhu Di.
Zhu Di also nodded slightly, with a look of disdain on his face, "These Koreans want to stuff everything into their arms."
"Your Highness, in a bay in the distance, a small bay current was found, which can lead to the opposite side of the big island!"
Xu Xiang suddenly came over to report.
"Is it possible to reach the opposite side of the big island?"
Zhu Di's expression condensed, and then he said: "We have burned the Japanese pirates' ships. I think the Japanese pirates will arrive soon. We only need to send people to keep an eye on the sea channel. There is no need to explore!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Xu Xiang takes the order.
About half an hour later.
The fire on the mountain in the distance is gradually extinguishing.
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but look frozen.
The Japanese pirates are coming!
Guo An said coldly: "Your Highness, since the Japanese pirates want to put out the fire, we will not be able to do as they wish and continue to set the fire!"
"But Guo Changshi, all the dead grass and trees around us have been burned down. If we continue to set fires, we can only go ashore and go to the end of the fire!"
Zhu Liang said.
Zhu Di pointed directly to the bay in the distance and said: "Aren't there ridges on the other side of the bay that have not been lit?"
"Send the order, all the mountains and forests that have not been set on fire, be set on fire for me one by one!"
"Here!"
Zhu Liang went directly to deliver the order.
"Guo Changshi, are you worried that there are Japanese pirates hiding in these mountains and forests? That's why you have to clear out all the mountains and forests?"
Zhu Neng asked thoughtfully as he saw fires breaking out everywhere in Nuoda Bay.
Hearing this, Qiu Song, Chen Xi and Li Jun couldn't help but their eyes lit up.
"The Art of War says that when you encounter dangerous places on the march, such as lakes, swamps, reeds, mountains and forests, and other easily hidden places, you must search carefully to prevent the enemy from ambushing or scouting."
"With such a vast and dense mountain forest, it will be difficult for us and so many soldiers to search it completely. Fire attack search is the safest and most convenient..."
"Guo Changshi is indeed someone who is familiar with the art of war!"
Guo An and Zhu Di were stunned. They just felt that this island was useless to the Ming Dynasty, but it was the home of the Japanese pirates and was very important to the Japanese pirates. Burning the Japanese pirates' home could force the Japanese pirates to come out.
Who would have thought that these boys could have such profound interpretations of the art of war.
"Hmph, you are waiting for a bunch of art of war nerds!"
Zhu Liang, who came back, couldn't help but cursed angrily and said: "Your Highness and Guo Changshi are just waiting for work in leisure.
Use mountain fire to attract the Japanese pirates as soon as possible so that you can use your abundant physical strength to kill them all."
Zhu Liang, Qiu Song, Chen Xi, and Li Jun were stunned and looked at Guo An and Zhu Di with doubts on their faces.
Guo An couldn't help but said: "You are all right. Your Highness and I mainly want to lure the Japanese pirates here and force them to fight our army.
