Chapter 1186: Hunting four islands

   The inner city of Kyushu Island. Originally, this city was the home city of Kyushu's great friend Zonglin. It has been captured by Zhou Yu and Lu Xun, and great friend Zonglin exiled to Honshu Island.

Fubo Army Navy assembled part of the fleet here, planning to attack Shikoku Island, one of the four islands in the East.

Kyushu Island and Shikoku Island are separated by the Seto Inland Sea, and the Seto Inland Sea is fairly calm.

Crown Prince Chu Wu led troops to the inner city of the mansion and joined Zhou Yu and Lu Xun. They were responsible for sweeping the Shikoku Island.

"The population of Shikoku Island is much smaller than that of Kyushu Island, only one million...The only member of the head of the long sect of Shikoku, who has only tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, has suffered a lot of deaths and injuries in the battle of Kyushu, so the guard of His Royal Highness, It should be enough to sweep Shikoku Island. We will send His Royal Highness to Shikoku Island. The next battle will depend on His Highness's own performance."

Zhou Yu briefly analyzed the strength of the Shikoku Island. The main task of the Fubo Army was to protect Chu Wu's legion on the Shikoku Island, and then Chu Wu alone would conquer the Shikoku Island.

The population distribution of the four islands of Toei is uneven. Shikoku Island and Hokkaido have very small populations, followed by Kyushu Island, and Honshu Island is the most populous. The population of Honshu Island differs greatly from the mountains and plains.

The rise of Oda Nobunaga is not unrelated to the fact that Oda Nobunaga's base is in the populous Kinki region.

"Conquer Shikoku Island and leave it to me."

Chu Wu attacked the Changzong family of Shikoku Island, while the main force of generals such as Bai Qi, Yue Fei, and Le Yi attacked Honshu Island.

The Daimyo of Honshu Island, the closest to Kyushu Island, is the Maori family.

Dongying daimyo tried their best to avoid, but Bai Qi they didn't want to give the daimyo a chance to breathe.

After occupying all the cities on Kyushu Island, the Xia Army simply rested and immediately launched the next round of offensive, devouring whales on the four eastern islands.

"The reason why Shikoku Island is Shikoku Island is because there are four ordinance countries on the island, Awa, Sanuki, Iyo, and Tosa, which are equivalent to four counties, and because they are basically mountainous regions, each county The population of Shikoku is not large. The Daimyo Nagazong who occupy the island of Shikoku has a special class of arms, "one collar and sufficient", which is regarded as an elite group. It was severely damaged in the joint war in Kyushu, and the remaining people were less than three or four thousand. Perhaps you should be careful. Yes, it should be the local rugged terrain."

Before the expedition, Zhuge Liang once again provided information to Chu Wu.

Bai Qi added a group of troops to the Donggong Guards, and Chu Wu took about 40,000 people to attack Shikoku Island.

For Chu Wu, it should not be difficult for 40,000 people to conquer Shikoku Island with a population of only about one million.

"Try to complete the crusade against the four islands of the East before the arrival of the cold winter, otherwise it will be more difficult to supply supplies in the cold winter."

Chu Wu is calculating time.

Except for the Xia Jun on the Southern Expedition, the Xia Jun on the East and West Roads tried their best to avoid delaying the war until the cold winter.

The generals of the East Palace Guards boarded one after another, escorted by the Fubo Army.

The Fubo Army has taken control of the entire Seto Inland Sea.

This is the advantage of a powerful navy, occupying control of the sea, taking the initiative, coming and going freely.

Not long ago, there was a small-scale naval battle between the Fubo Army and the Dongying Navy. Dongying’s Anzhai Ship was severely taught by the Dafu Ship. Then, the Dongying Navy could only use the tortuous coastline for guerrilla and commotion. Then hit the Polish army hard.

"Brother Chu Wu, in one or two years, I will go out with you."

Sun Shangxiang followed over to the inner city of the mansion. He originally wanted to go to Shikoku Island together, but was forcibly driven away by Chu Wu.

so much so that Sun Shangxiang protested that she thought her archery skills were still superior to Chu Wu.

Chu Wu only said that when Sun Shangxiang deliberately said that, wanting to get into the team going to Shikoku Island, and did not think that Sun Shangxiang's archery skills would surpass him.

The upper limit of Chu Wu's force exceeds 90, and in the entire Daxia Dynasty, how many young generals can exceed 90?

may not exceed 20 people.

"I didn't lie to you!"

Sun Shangxiang opened her teeth and danced her claws, dissatisfied that Chu Wu underestimated herself, but she was still coaxed and driven back to the Central Plains by Chu Wu.

"Xiangxiang finally went back."

Chu Wu breathed a sigh of relief.

Sun Shangxiang was behind Jiang Zuo's forces, and Chu Wu had to take into account her feelings.

Being in a high position is not completely unconstrained. On the contrary, the ruler has to try his best to maintain the original order, and in many cases he is forced to make compromises, rather than being able to do what he wants.

"Humph……"

As Donggong Guardian, Lu Lingqi could not help but snorted slightly in her eyes, a little dissatisfied.

Forty thousand people of the East Palace Guard, under the **** of 400 large and small warships, headed to Shikoku Island.

Shikoku Island, Okatoyo Castle, the main city of the Longzong family, the family governor, the head of the family, gathered many family elders, and the atmosphere was solemn.

After the Xia Army achieved the supremacy of Kyushu, it gathered forces in the inner city, mostly for the purpose of conquering Shikoku Island.

"The population of the four countries is small and their military strength is weak. How can they resist the Heavenly Master?"

"The lord may use mountain roads and mountain towns to resist more. When his troops are exhausted, he may retreat."

"For today's plan, there is only this."

There is no way for the long-term family members.

Although he dominates Shikoku Island, the Shikoku Island in "Lord" has a population of only one million. Without the help of the Honshu Island names, it is no different from a fantasy that he wants to fight head-on with the crusaders from the Central Plains.

Shikoku Island daimyos, their strength is far worse than the Kyushu daimyo, and the Honshu daimyo is farther away, and it is better than Hokkaido.

"The only thing you can rely on is the mountains."

After some serious consideration, the Changzong’s head, headed to the superintendent of the house and down to the retainers, finally came to a unanimous conclusion: fighting head-on is not an opponent in any case. It can only rely on the mountain terrain and the mountain city to consume the Xia army and let The expedition army of the Central Plains dynasty retreated due to lack of food.

Despite this, the members of the Changzong family still notified the city lord and vassals, reminding them that Xia Jun might attack Shikoku Island, so that they were alert in advance. Once Xia Jun landed on Shikoku Island, immediately inform the other daimyos and be prepared.

The Longzong My Headquarters can still use tens of thousands of troops as a mobile unit to support the city owners who submit to the Longzong My Headquarters at any time.

"May Amaterasu God take shelter."

Nagazong I can only pray.

The East Palace Guards were on their way to conquer Shikoku Island, and Chu Wu once again refreshed his expedition distance.

Accumulating military exploits is vital to consolidating the position of the East Palace.

Lu Lingqi is seasick again, persisting with amazing perseverance.

Tachibana Chiyo was forced to take a team of Tachibana's retainers to fight against the daimyo of Shikoku Island.

She was a little worried that she would not go back to Tachibana Mountain Castle in the future.

"The population of Shikoku Island is less than half that of Xiacheng. This time it should be easier."

Chu Wu muttered.

The difficulty of conquering Kyushu Island was not great, but the Honshu island’s daimyo gathered on Kyushu Island, and the force exceeded one million, so it was a little tricky.

Once these big names are separated, it is easy to be defeated by each. After all, their forces are too scattered. Each city has tens of thousands of people and hundreds of people, which is extremely unbalanced.

The city lord and samurai along the coast of Shikoku Island received a reminder from the former leader of the Nagazong family in advance to send villagers from Zuqing or fishing villages to patrol the coast, and ordered that if Xia Jun’s fleet is found, they should be reported immediately.

South of Iyokuni, Chu Wu’s fleet plans to land on the territory of Xiyuanji’s home.

The Xiyuanji family is a big name on the island of Shikoku. In fact, the ruling population includes villagers. I don’t know if there are more than 100,000 people who surrendered to Changzong’s family members.

Dealing with this level of daimyo is no different from abuse of food.

In a fishing village under the jurisdiction of the Xiyuan Temple family, the local fishermen who went out to the sea discovered with horror that a huge fleet appeared on the sea level, and the tens of meters long Dafu boat was full of sails, mighty and covered the sea.

"Monster!"

"What monster, this is the navy master of Central Plains!"

"Damn, you shouldn't go to sea at this time!"

There are players among the fishermen, and they can tell that this is a Dafu ship unique to the Central Plains, with a pale face.

The fishing boats turned around and fled, trying to get ashore to avoid this Xia army navy.

The navy general Lu Meng who was responsible for escorting Chu Wu's soldiers and horses was unmoved.

Tens of thousands of troops are mobilized, and it is basically difficult to hide their whereabouts. Even if they are spotted by the big names of Shikoku Island, it probably doesn't matter, because Shikoku Island is too weak.

Lv Meng escorted to a fishing village along the coast. The Dafu boat could not get close to the fishing village, otherwise it might run aground.

The East Palace Guards rowed a wooden paddle boat and easily captured the fishing village.

Forty thousand soldiers came ashore, the fishermen shivered.

They are just a small fishing village with hundreds of people, so there is no need to mobilize 40,000 soldiers and horses to suppress it.

Lu Meng said: "At the end, a small group of ships will be left to pick up, and every once in a while, grain and grass will be transported here."

"There is General Laulu."

Chu Wu sent away Lv Meng who returned to the inner city of the mansion to count the soldiers and horses that came ashore.

Royal Boar, Yang Xingmi, Zu Dashou, Su Lie still follow Chu Wu, and there are Lu Lingqi, Tachibana Chiyo, Zhuge Liang, Huang Yueying, UU reading www. uukanshu.com is a fantastic lineup.

Forty thousand soldiers and horses are all veterans who have survived the battle in Kyushu.

Chuwu’s Yu Xuejun had an average level of 25 after fighting together and training during rest periods.

"The castle in the north is the main castle of the Nishienji family, Kurose Castle, and Omori castle in the south. The number of guards in each castle is estimated to be only one to two thousand. Therefore, the soldiers are divided into two groups, all the way along the north, all the way Advance along the south and take the entire Shikoku Island as soon as possible."

After Chu Wu went ashore, he immediately divided his troops.

If the opponent is a strong enemy, it may be more risky to divide the troops, but this time it is obviously to come to Shikoku Island to hunt, and we should take Shikoku Island as quickly as possible.

The terrain of the island is often mountainous in the middle, and the coast is relatively flat, so two soldiers and horses can just sweep the entire island and eventually merge.

Chu Wu led the soldiers and horses of the South Road, while Su Lie, Zu Dashou, and Royal Boar led the soldiers and horses of the North Road.

When Chu Wu arrived at Kyushu Island, the army of Bai Qi, Yue Fei, and Le Yi, under the **** of the Fubo Army, crossed the Maguan Strait and set foot on Honshu Island!

Shimonoseki Strait is also the place where the Shimonoseki Treaty was signed. On the opposite side of Kyushu Island is Honshu Island.

Bai Qi and other generals aggressively attacked Honshu Island, causing the Toyo Earthquake again.
