Chapter 621
Zheng Zhilong sent someone to deliver an order to let Zongyi become an outpost of the Ming army. If the Japanese navy appeared, a red flag would be erected high on the island.Among them, [-] warships with a red flag and [-] warships with a blue flag were used to warn Busan.

The reason why Zong Yicheng was asked to do it here was because the Ming army did not have enough troops to control such a large island of Tsushima, at least in the short term!

Now the manpower of the Ming army is used to search and suppress the Japanese scattered at the southern tip of the Korean peninsula; if fewer people are sent to Tsushima Island, and if these Japanese have different intentions, it will be like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth, and it will be useless at critical moments; There are more troops sent to Tsushima Island. Once the troops are dispersed, it will be more dangerous and uneconomical to fight together.

At this time, Zong Yicheng heard the question from the general of the Ming army, and quickly squeezed out a smile and said, "Naturally, you have to do your best for the matter of the commander-in-chief, and there will be absolutely no mistakes!"

After hearing this, the general of the Ming army was quite satisfied with Zong Yicheng's respect and respect, so he was going to go back to hand in the order, but before leaving, he warned Zong Yicheng: "If you play tricks, the commander said, you will be destroyed." Mashima!"

"Don't dare, dare not..." Zong Yicheng listened, nodded and bowed immediately, and responded repeatedly.

So, just like that, after a quarter of an hour or so, Zong Yicheng saw that the warship of the Ming army had gone away, so he turned around and returned to the mansion. How could it be possible for a small Ming army leader to be so respectful and make him happy.

His subordinates, from the beginning to the end, naturally understood what he was thinking, and one of the older followers said to him: "The feudal lord does not need to worry. From the perspective of a villain, although the Ming army was tyrannical for a while, it is still just a foreign army." , don’t worry too much!”

"Oh?" Zong Yicheng immediately raised his head when he heard the sound, looked at the man and asked, "How do you say it?"

If he hadn't seen the strength of the Ming army, why would he be so active in humiliating himself!
The other attendants were also a little curious. They all looked at the older man and wanted to hear what he had to say?
I just listened to this elderly follower analyze Zong Yicheng: "How about the war in North Korea? After all, it is only the Ming army who is talking about it. Where is the head of the Japanese Daimufu or the old middle-aged man? No! The North Korean side What is the real situation, you must not just listen to what the Ming army says. As far as we can see from Tsushima Island, the Ming army should be dominant on the North Korean side. At least for now, the navy is the Ming army. Great victory. But so what?"

"So what?" Zong Yicheng heard this, and repeated with a little suspicion.

"Yes, so what!" the man continued, "The situation in the Korean War is of great importance to the Wa country. The general will definitely not give up. Therefore, the follow-up reinforcements will definitely come. And the villain concluded that once it comes If it is done, it must be able to defeat the navy of the Ming Dynasty, and then meet the strength of the Korean and Japanese army. Otherwise, think about it, the feudal lord, if the general sends a navy that cannot be defeated, then why bother? "

Hearing this, Zong Yicheng couldn't help but nodded.I have already sent someone to report to Edo about the strength of the Ming army.After such a long time, no more warships of the Ming army have been seen, which shows that the strength of the navy of the Ming army is still the one reported to Edo.That being the case, the navy sent by the general must be able to defeat the Ming navy, and they will be sent if they are sure.

Thinking about it in this way, he immediately had a bottom line in his mind.

And the older entourage continued to say: "In addition, if the Ming army is really strong enough, why does it have to let the feudal lord do this? It's better not to send people to garrison Tsushima Island directly, or simply kill Kyushu Island Therefore, the villain speculates that the Ming army must be insufficient in strength. Thinking back, the Ming army sent to North Korea was only 5 to [-] troops, and at the peak, it was only about [-]. Now this time, they can How much is coming?"

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and then analyzed with confidence: "Although the Ming Kingdom has a lot of people, it is too far away from here. Therefore, it is not that the Ming Kingdom does not want to send more troops, but that it cannot afford to send so many troops." The army. However, the Japanese side is different. Compared with the Ming country, it is much closer, and the logistical supply will naturally have a smaller burden. If the general goes crazy, 20 troops can be sent over. "

Having said that, the meaning of what this person said is already very clear.

The war between the Ming Kingdom and the Wa Kingdom continued, and the final winner must be the Wa Kingdom. The decisive factor was the issue of logistics supplies.

In this regard, Zong Yicheng finally showed a smile on his face, and praised: "Sure enough, Jiang is old and hot, not bad, not bad! If you say it this way, everything will be clear!"

To be honest, he was really frightened by the Ming army for a while before.But at this time, he really didn't have any worries anymore.The country of Tsuima is too small and can only embrace the lap of a strong person. This strong person can only be the Japanese country!

Thinking of this, he immediately began to send orders, asking his subordinates to follow the instructions of the Ming army first, and then provide false information to the Ming army when the Japanese navy army arrived. In this way, the Wa country can be destroyed Ming Jun, he will have some credit to some extent.On the side of the general, you can also please me!
…………

On the side of Busan, the captured Japanese are doing hard labor and rebuilding the Port of Busan for military use.

On the nearby mountains, observation posts have also been established, including Geoje Island and other outlying islands, and observation posts have also been established to form a complete set of early warning mechanisms.As for the early warning of Tsushima Island, it is actually only the outermost link. Whether it is present or not, it does not affect the entire early warning mechanism.

For Zheng Zhilong, he often sneaks up on others, so naturally he has to guard against being sneaked up by others.It is for this reason that in addition to establishing his own set of early warning mechanisms, he only sent people to pass orders, and by the way, Zongyi Cheng of Tsushima Island gave orders.

It's just that he didn't expect that Zong Yicheng took himself too seriously, thinking that he was an important part of the early warning mechanism of the Ming army, and was already thinking about tricking the Ming army to please Tokugawa Iemitsu.

At this time, Zheng Zhilong was on the mountainside where Inoue Shigemasa committed suicide, overlooking the construction of the port, and at the same time overlooking the sea and the direction of Japan.

For the Japanese country, Zheng Zhilong can be said to be a Ming person who is familiar with Japanese affairs.After all, in the past, he had always settled in the Wa country, married a wife and gave birth to a son.

He knows how strong the overall strength of Wa Kingdom is.Although North Korea defeated the Japanese army, the Japanese country still has the strength to fight.It is definitely not something that Zheng Zhilong can conquer with more than ten thousand sailors, and Li Dingguo and Lu Da lead more than ten thousand cavalry.

The previous victory over the Japanese country was due to the fact that it was caught by surprise.But now, this advantage is gone.On the contrary, on the Japanese side, how many troops will come, who will lead the army, and when they will arrive, they still don't know anything.Relatively speaking, it is the Wa country that is in the dark, but I am in the clear.I am afraid that the next battle will be difficult!
But it's not that I don't have my hole cards here. Although the war is not easy to fight, I am not afraid of it.The navy of Japan will come as soon as it is coming!
In addition, Zheng Zhilong also had something unexpected, that is, the more than ten thousand cavalry troops of Li Dingguo and Lu Da defeated the Japanese army in North Korea to annihilation.It is estimated that in less than a month, the remnants of the Japanese army scattered in the mountains and forests will be wiped out.

Thinking of this, he was a little relieved.Now that his navy has North Korea as his support, he no longer has to worry about being surrounded by the superior Japanese navy on the island. This can be regarded as a little bit more chance of winning and gives him more confidence.

"Ah, it would be great if I knew the strength of the Japanese Navy!" Zheng Zhilong thought about all this and couldn't help but sighed inwardly.

As he was talking, he suddenly saw a ship sailing in the distance, flying the flag of Ming Dynasty, but it was not a ship of Ming Dynasty.This surprised him a bit, and he immediately picked up the binoculars and looked at it.

It was a little far away at first, and I couldn't see the people standing on the deck clearly.But Zheng Zhilong felt a little familiar, so he took a closer look for a while, and suddenly he was overjoyed, and quickly put down the binoculars and said, "Go, go down and meet my fifth child!"

To be honest, he has always been a little worried about Zheng Zhibao's safety.Although the emperor had already reminded him, he also sent someone to inform Zheng Zhilong to evacuate immediately, but he didn't see anyone, so he was worried after all.Seeing it at this time, I am relieved and at the same time, I am naturally happy.

When he got down to the pier, Zheng Zhibao's boat was already "escorted" by two naval warships, one on the left and one on the right, and sailed into the port.

"Brother, I'm back!" Zheng Zhibao looked at the busy scene in front of him, saw the figures in red military uniforms everywhere, rushed to the very friendly room, and suddenly saw his long-lost brother, surrounded by a group of generals, striding towards the pier , hurriedly waved and greeted excitedly.

However, Zheng Zhilong was obviously older. Although he was happy, he did not lose his composure. He stood on the pier and watched his fifth younger brother jump off the boat and hurried over.

It can be seen that there is no missing arm or leg, and the whole body is back!
Zheng Zhibao quickly walked up to the eldest brother, and suddenly remembered something, immediately turned serious, stood still, clasped his fists and said: "Jinyiwei Baihu has seen the general, and there is a Japanese military report!"

Zheng Zhilong was a little surprised when he heard it, he didn't expect the fifth brother to be so serious.

But he knew his younger brother well, and immediately understood that the fifth younger brother must have felt that the emperor still cared about his safety, so he put the emperor's life first.

Thinking of this, Zheng Zhilong was also grateful in his heart, so he also straightened his face and said: "Please tell me!"

Although he is a commander in chief, the opposite is just a hundred households, but this hundred households are the Jinyiwei hundred households. They are not under the control of him, the commander in chief, but directly under the emperor's control. Treat the Baihu in front of you politely.

 Thank you for your reward!
