Lu Xuan looked at Matsushita Saburo's surrender and listened to Matsushita Saburo's words of begging for death. He shook his head and said: "I thought that you were so tough and pious that you would be loyal to your Majesty the Emperor. Now it seems that piety and loyalty are nothing more than that.
in this way."
Saburo Matsushita's cheeks twitched.
He looked at Lu Xuan, with deep fear in his eyes.
This man is a devil!
Too cruel!
His legs were broken, dripping with blood, and in extreme pain. The other party didn't even have the slightest bit of compassion, and even used some chili pepper salt water to make him miserable.
He is absolutely loyal to His Majesty the Emperor and is definitely the most loyal ninja in Japan, but the enemy is too cruel.
There was nothing he could do.
Matsushita Saburo opened his mouth to speak, but for a moment he didn't know what to say, so he simply shut up.
Lu Xuan continued: "Tell me, what is your identity, how many people are left here by Tokugawa Ieyasu? What are his plans next? Explain everything clearly."
Matsushita Saburo looked at Lu Xuan's cold eyes, shuddered, and said quickly: "My name is Matsushita Saburo. I am a ninja beside His Majesty the Emperor. I am responsible for assassinations."
"This time His Majesty the Emperor withdrew his troops and left behind ten ninjas headed by me."
"The purpose is to carry out the assassination plan."
Matsushita Saburo said: "In addition to our assassination, His Majesty the Emperor also arranged for people to stop you at sea after retreating. Once you cross the sea by boat, you will be besieged by the Japanese navy."
Lu Xuan roughly understood.
Tokugawa Ieyasu left these ten people, Matsushita Saburo, because he knew it was impossible to do anything but acted like a living horse doctor.
What if the assassination was successful?
This is Tokugawa Ieyasu's only remaining thought.
The battle at sea is also within the expected range. The sea is Tokugawa Ieyasu's line of defense. Tokugawa Ieyasu will definitely use the navy to block Riku Xuan's attack. And once the blockade at sea is successful, and even defeats Riku Xuan, there will be a chance to defeat all
People were buried at sea.
Lu Xuan asked again: "How many troops does Tokugawa Ieyasu have in Honshu?"
Saburo Matsushita grimaced, shook his head hurriedly, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know. I am just a ninja beside His Majesty the Emperor. I am only responsible for assassinations. I don't know anything about other things."
Lu Xuan's eyes were slightly cold, and he threatened: "If you don't tell me honestly, I will only let you enjoy the torture just now."
"No!"
Saburo Matsushita's expression was tense, and he became anxious for a moment, and said loudly: "I have confessed honestly, I have said everything, and I have not concealed anything. Every word of mine is true, and there are no lies."
"If you want to know something, just ask."
"I must say."
"Don't come again, I really made everything clear."
Saburo Matsushita thought about the miserable situation he had been tortured into, and his emotions collapsed. He said loudly: "Please, even if you want to kill me, just kill me directly. I would rather die than endure such torture."
Lu Xuan examined it and determined that Saburo Matsushita was not lying and had nothing to ask, so he waved his hand and said: "Deng Dang, drag the person down and cure him, and then interrogate the other Japanese people and verify the information. Next, we will go to the Honshu Island of the Japanese country.
At the base camp, we have to rely on these people to lead the way."
"As you command!"
Deng Dang turned and left.
Shortly after Deng Dang left, Cao Cao came and reported: "Your Majesty, I heard that assassins were attacking."
Lu Xuan nodded and said quickly: "It has been clearly interrogated that it was Tokugawa Ieyasu who left ten ninja assassins to assassinate me. All of them have been captured. In addition, the other party told me that Tokugawa Ieyasu left water on the sea.
The army wants to target us."
Cao Cao's eyes were sharp and he said: "Your Majesty, our warships are well equipped. Even if Tokugawa Ieyasu has a warship, we are not afraid."
Lu Xuan smiled and nodded, and said: "Father-in-law is right, our warship is currently the largest and strongest. In addition to the catapult you mentioned, father-in-law, it is also equipped with a racket, which is enough to suppress the opponent."
The racket is a common weapon on the Five-Tooth Ship.
Historically, the five-tooth ship was popular in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It was no longer an ordinary ship and was four or five stories high.
Lu Xuan's warships cannot achieve such an effect. The largest flagship only has three floors, and most of them have two floors.
The racket pole on the ship is not a trebuchet. It is a long and tough pole set up on the ship. The end of the long pole can move up and down. A boulder is tied to the top of the long pole and tied to a wooden stake on the side when not in use.
.
When the enemy's ship approaches, loosen the rope and let go of the tied long pole. Using the lever principle, the top stone will be smashed down and hit the opponent's ship, which can have the effect of breaking the opponent's warship.
At the same time, you can also take the first step and win by surprise.
Cao Cao turned his eyes and had an idea in his mind. He said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I have an idea."
Lu Xuan asked: "What do you think?"
Cao Cao replied: "We will use the method of luring the enemy. When the time comes, we will first send a few warships to the sea to lure the enemy out. Then, our warships will appear again to encircle them and destroy them in one go."
"If our warships march together and the Japanese warships are afraid of the mighty force and dare not come out, then they cannot be annihilated. With the help of naval battles, we can first further weaken Tokugawa Ieyasu's power and cut off his power to harass at sea.
.”
Lu Xuan looked approvingly and said, "Just follow the arrangement of my father-in-law."
"I resign!"
Cao Cao bowed and got up to make arrangements.
After Cao Cao left, Lu Xuan yawned and turned around to go back to sleep. In the evening, he and Sun Shangxiang had a great harmony of yin and yang. Because Sun Shangxiang had long legs and his legs were slender and strong, the great harmony was very laborious, which made him a little tired now.
There was no talking all night, and Lu Xuan got up early the next morning.
Lu Xuan and Sun Shangxiang had dinner. Sun Shangxiang put on his armor and was still responsible for standing guard and following Lu Xuan. But Lu Xuan had nothing to do for the time being. After Sun Shangxiang stood guard for a while, Lu Xuan took Sun Shangxiang, called Xu Chu, and headed towards the beach again.
, ready to continue fishing for seafood.
Unexpectedly, when Lu Xuan arrived, Cao Cao, Dian Wei, Guo Jia and others, and hundreds of soldiers were distributed along the coast, each fishing for seafood.
Lu Xuan couldn't help but laugh.
This is really about living by the sea.
Today's fishing may be able to catch a lot more. The next step will not be so easy. Because the current ecology is destroyed, many large lobsters, crabs, swimming crabs, bread crabs, abalone, and sea cucumbers gathered on the shore reefs have been fished.
, it takes a certain amount of time to recover.
Unless you go to deeper waters.
However, without oxygen bottles now, it is impossible to dive into deep water.
Lu Xuan watched for a while and saw that some people caught big lobsters, others caught big crabs, and some small fish and shrimps. Because there were more people, the catches would naturally be more.
Lu Xuan looked at it for a while and then went back.
The next time was so boring and boring. Lu Xuan ate abalone and seafood every day, and slept with his arms around the beautiful woman. His life was very comfortable.
Less than half a month has passed, and the October sky has become a little cooler.
On this day, when Lu Xuan was reading a book in the camp without any desire, Cao Cao came in a hurry, his eyes were excited, and reported: "Your Majesty, all the warships have arrived. In addition, the weather has returned to fine weather. The timing is right.
Mature, ready to cross the sea and fight."
Lu Xuan's eyes suddenly brightened.
Recently, when he was with Sun Shangxiang, the frequent harmony of yin and yang made him a little wantless. Now that the war was coming, Lu Xuan was quite excited. He stood up and said, "Give me the order and prepare to set off."
"Here!"
Cao Cao answered immediately.
He turned around and made arrangements.
Because the army had been prepared for a long time, they quickly took action and boarded one warship after another.
All the warships slowly sailed out of the port. However, when a large number of warships went out to sea, three of the warships sailed ahead, heading towards Honshu Island.
