Digging in the city!
Sasaki's mind suddenly became clear. It must be said that if a person is willing to abstain from sex, his brain will function much better.
Just like Inoue Takeshi now, even Sasaki didn't think of something, but Inoue Takeshi actually thought of it.
Sasaki nodded quickly and said goodbye.
Just like Inoue Yu said, at the moment, this is probably the only thing he can do.
As for the sneak attack outside the city, let's forget about it for now.
Sasaki also agreed with Inoue Yu's statement. If he left the city at this moment, he would most likely just give away his life in vain.
All the Ming troops who were able to arrive here were veterans of hundreds of battles. Similarly, their generals were also tempered in previous wars of all sizes. How could they have fallen into a sneak attack?
…
The bombardment outside the city continued. Along with the rumbling sound of artillery, the Japanese troops in Dongchuan City began to dig and pile up the soil desperately.
What they are doing now is closely related to their own lives, so who dares not to contribute when doing it?
Under the threat of life, the efficiency of the Japanese troops in the city was surprisingly high.
…
Outside the city, several old men from the Mingjiao era, now generals, were chatting and laughing amid the rumbling of artillery.
"I can't believe it. In the first half of our lives, we were just ruffians in the martial arts world, but now, we can lead our soldiers to places beyond our cognition."
When King Yin Ye said this, he naturally looked proud.
Yang Xiao said: "That's true. It's only been ten years since our Majesty was able to transform the Ming Cult into the Ming Dynasty. With such ability and courage, if Your Majesty wants, maybe we can also launch a Western Expedition, just like the Mongols did back then."
Wei Yi smiled and said: "That's right, what the Mongols can do, we can naturally do as well. What the Mongols cannot do, we can still do as well. Especially our Majesty, he can even conquer the empress of the former Yuan Dynasty. He is truly a role model for our generation."
Yang Xiao and Yin Yewang both nodded: "That's right, not everyone can win over a woman like Zhao Min. I'm afraid that in this world, only our Majesty can control her."
Wei Yi smiled and said, "Zhao Min is worthy of being the leader among women. No matter what she does, she can do it so well. It's not enough that she is good at fighting, but she is also far better than our daughter when it comes to giving birth."
When they said this, the expressions on Wei Yixiao and Yang Xiao's faces were relatively good, but the expression on Yin Yewang's face was really ugly.
After all, Zhu'er had been with Zhang Wuji for ten years, but in those ten years, she had not given birth to a child for him. It was a pity that King Yin Ye had only one daughter, Zhu'er. If he had two more daughters, he would have packed them up and given them to Zhang Wuji long ago.
After all, he is our own leader and our own emperor. This is what it means to keep the benefits within the family.
Seeing Yin Yewang's ugly expression, Yang Xiao and Wei Yixiao naturally stopped talking about this topic.
Yang Xiao patted Yin Yewang on the shoulder and said, "Old brother, don't think too much. Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Let's think about the present."
"How much gunpowder is left?"
After calming himself down, King Yin Ye said, "As for gunpowder, we actually have a lot of it left. After all, we are on an expedition and we are well prepared. How could we possibly be short of that stuff?"
After hearing this, Yang Xiao smiled and said, "That's good. I will bombard it for a night first, and then you can find time to blow up the city. It's just a mere Dongchuan City, how can it stop us, the Ming soldiers."
"Blowing up the city with gunpowder!" Wei Yi smiled and said, "In fact, I have always been thinking about one thing. Since the founding of our Ming Dynasty, His Majesty has been very focused on the manufacture of firearms. The artillery can fire farther and farther, and the use of explosive packs has become more and more mature. This has negated the siege methods that have been used for thousands of years."
"Moreover, the soldiers' armor is becoming more and more complete. Take the soldiers on our expedition for example. They are all wearing heavy armor, and the weapons in their hands are either long-handled axes or infantry hammers. They are things that can kill you with just one hit. As for swords and other things, except for us old immortals with profound cultivation, other soldiers have already disdained them."
After hearing this, Yang Xiao took it to heart: "Yes, this is the trend of battles. In more and more wars, the things we fight for have become the completeness of armor, the lethality of weapons, the logistical supplies, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers under our command. With the development speed of the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that in another 20 to 30 years, there will be no generals who kill people personally, and the things of taking the heads of generals from among thousands of soldiers will become history."
Yin Yewang smiled and said, "You may be right. Twenty or thirty years from now, the main role of generals will be to plan and win battles thousands of miles away. But that is twenty or thirty years from now. We will be the last group of generals who can emulate the style of the ancient generals. Isn't it a great blessing to think so? While we can still kill, we should try our best to find ways to leave a few marks in the history books of the Ming Dynasty."
"Who knows, when the people of future generations beg for the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, they will also bring us a stick of incense."
"After hearing this, Yin Yewang, Wei Yixiao and Yang Xiao burst into laughter."
For themselves, there are almost no regrets in their lives. Founding generals are almost all destined to leave their names in history, and they are naturally no exception.
…
After the laughter, the three of them went their separate ways.
Joking aside, we still have to do serious work. Right now, the Ming army here, no matter how powerful it is, has only more than 20,000 soldiers. If the Japanese in the city dare to launch a sneak attack, if they succeed, there may be a possibility of a comeback.
However, leaving aside Wei Yixiao and Yang Xiao, Yin Yewang walked and walked until he came near Zhang Wuji's tent, where Zhu'er and Yu Fei happened to be talking and laughing.
When their eyes met, Zhu'er was naturally the same as before, refusing to look at her father in a good light.
"snort".
Just a "hum" is enough to explain the relationship between this father and daughter.
According to the past, King Yin Ye should have left with a smile at this moment, but this time, King Yin Ye did not leave.
Yu Fei on the side smiled and said, "Your father has something to say to you, I'm leaving first."
Yu Fei appears to be careless, similar to Zhu'er, but in fact, he is also very perceptive.
After Yu Fei left, Zhu'er came to King Yin Ye with a bad look on her face and asked, "What's the matter?"
