The fortress has already been bombarded once, and Itakura Shigemasa is very experienced and can deal with it calmly.
Even if there were three artillery arrays and some dangerous corners were bombed, Itakura Shigemasa still handled it like a fish in water, and he was able to capture it.
These things are not Itakura Shigemasa's ability, he does things carefully, and he doesn't dare to be high-profile at all.
Aoyama Tadashi is like a hands-off shopkeeper, in his array house, he doesn't know what to study, and he is indifferent to the artillery fire outside.
Naito Masakatsu was soon gone, and he needed to report to Tokugawa Iemitsu about the situation in Edo, and Tokugawa Iemitsu had too many things for him to do.
The artillery fire of the Ming army continued day and night, and Ránshāodàn burned the fortress brighter than day, and a terrible explosion made the 80,000 troops in the fortress unable to sleep at night and uneasy.
Itakura Shigemasa had experience, and at night, when he came to the underground formation house where Aoyama Tadashi was, the sound of bàozhà was still swaying in his ears, and he looked at Aoyama Tadashi with a solemn face, and said, "Izu Mamoru, I can't go on like this." ” Tadashi Aoyama looked at the map in front of him and said, "Is this map detailed?"
” Aoyama Tadashi glanced at Itakura Shigemasa and said indifferently: "This map, you personally explored it?"
” Itakura Shigemasa had been in the fortress for a long time, and this map was also made by him on the orders of Tadashi Aoyama, and when he heard this, he immediately said, "Yes." ” Aoyama Tadashi glanced at him, looked down and continued to look at the map, and said, "Not bad." ” Aoyama Tadashi has always rarely praised people, if it was usual, Itakura Shigemasa must be very happy, but now, his face was full of condensation, and said: "Izu Mamoru, the terrain here, no one knows more carefully than those feudal lords and governors of the Saikaido countries, and now, most of them have surrendered to the Ming people, and this map, I'm afraid it's not very useful." ” Tadashi Aoyama stared at the map, unresponsive.
After a while, Itakura Shigemasa raised his head and said, "Now everyone in the gate can't sleep, and it's not good to eat and drink, and if this continues, we will be trapped to death." ” "What do you think?"
Aoyama Tadashi said without raising his head.
Itakura Shigemasa was a little cautious and said, "The villain suggested that if the troops are withdrawn in batches, such as the other side, it is enough to stay here with 40,000 to ensure that the samurai will not be exhausted." ” Aoyama Tadashi looked at a point on the map, his eyes flickered, and he shook his head and said: "Don't count on it, if we withdraw our troops, it will shake the morale of the army, and the Ming people will not just bombard, I expect that in three days at most, they will start attacking the city." ” The corners of Itakura Shigema's mouth moved, bowed, and said: "Izu Shou's eyes are like torches, and the villain is negligent!"
” Aoyama Tadashi raised his head, looked at him, listened to the rumbling of artillery outside, and said, "However, you are right about one thing, we can't be trapped here. ” Itakura Shigemasa looked up at Tadashi Aoyama, waiting for his next words.
They had an army of 80,000, which seemed to block the Ming army's eastward advance and set foot on their own island, but in fact, their 80,000 army was also trapped here.
Neither can go out to fight the Ming army, nor can it be consumed indefinitely.
Aoyama Tadashi didn't let Itakura Shigemasa wait long, and said in an indifferent tone: "We need a big victory, which will severely defeat the Ming army's spirit and force the Ming army to stop." ” Itakura Shigemasa nodded, not only does it take time to close the strait, it takes grain and grass, but Edo also needs time to sort out the turmoil of the tiānhuáng edict, strengthen the control of the daimyo in various places, recruit soldiers, grain and grass, plan the defense line of the island of the country, and so on.
After a desperate defeat, there was so much to do in the Wa Kingdom.
Aoyama Tadashi said: "I have a plan in my heart, and I need Itakura-kun's cooperation. ” Itakura Shigemasa bowed and said, "Izu Mamoru commands." ” Qingshan Zhongjun nodded, pointed to a place on the map, and said, "This place is called Fenglin Gorge, if there is a fire, it will be enough to bury 30,000 Ming troops!"
” This map was drawn by Itakura Shigemasa himself, and he was very familiar with everything, but he knew where Tadashi Aoyama was talking about just by looking up, but he frowned and said, "Izu Mamoru, where is a little far from here, it's not easy to get there, it's too difficult to set up an ambush there." ” The place that Qingshan Zhongjun pointed to, fifty miles west of the Guanmen Strait, is a lofty mountain range, a gourd terrain, once entered, there is no way to survive at both ends.
But this place, from the Guanmen Strait, has to pass through the camp of the Ming army, and besides, the Ming army is openly ambushing outside, how can they get out?
Qingshan Zhongjun's eyes were cold, he looked at him directly, and said: "If you go out day and night, you can go out along the coast, the number of people is not large, two or three hundred people each time, there can be more than 1,000 people in five days, and you can pretend to be 10,000 people with a little trick, the Ming army wants to make sure that there is no emergency, let alone send 20,000 people to be hanged." ” Hearing this, Itakura Shigemasa suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, and said, "What did Izu Mamoru say just now?
” Aoyama Tadashi said: "In the Chikugo Domain, Chikuzen Domain and other places, I still ambush people, and those who surrendered to the Ming army are not all sincere, but also have the people I have planted, and when the time comes, they will cooperate with you and start an incident in the other direction." ” Itakura Shigemasa frowned, his eyes flickered, and his face was very solemn.
He understood, Aoyama Tadashi wanted him to leave the city and go to the gourd canyon!
Once you're out of town, you'll never come back!
Aoyama Tadashi didn't have time to play dumb riddles with him, went around in circles, and said directly: "Itakura-kun, I hope you can do a good job, this is your last chance." ” Itakura Shigemasa's expression was extremely ugly, he finally understood why Aoyama Tadashi would protect him so many times along the way, and kept saving him, waiting for today!
Let him obediently send him to death and complete this plan!
Itakura Shigemasa's eyes flickered, and his heart swelled.
He didn't want to die, but he couldn't refuse Tadashi Aoyama, or rather, Tadashi Aoyama had a way that he couldn't refuse!
Looking at Itakura Shigemasa's changing expression, Tadashi Aoyama said, "I'll leave tonight." ” Itakura Shigemasa's eyes were cold, the corners of his face twitched, and his heart was even more entangled like a knife, for a long time, he finally bowed stiffly and said, "Haiyi!
” Aoyama Tadashi nodded indifferently and said, "Listen to me and tell me the detailed plan, you remember it by heart, keep it in your mind, and don't trust anyone." ” Itakura Shigemasa already had a will to die, his heart was gray, and he listened indifferently.
As for the aftermath, he had arranged this kind of thing several times before.
Tadashi Aoyama pointed to the dot map and began to teach Itakura Shigemasa little by little.
As a person who came from the Toyotomi Hideyoshi era, he has too much experience, even in the face of the Ming army with artillery superiority, naval superiority, and strategic superiority, he is still calm.
After hearing this, Itakura Shigemasa said that it was already late at night, and he only led a hundred people to hang from the back of the fortress of Guanmen, and quietly left the Guanmen Strait under the sound of artillery fire and the darkness of the night. 767e; 5ea6; 641c; 7d22; 3010; 4e91; 6765; 9601; 3011; 5c0f; 8bf4; 7f51; 7ad9; ff0c; 8ba9; 4f60; 4f53; 9a8c; 66f4; 65b0; 6700; 65b0; 6700; 5feb; 7684; 7ae0; 8282; 5c0f; 8bf4; ff0c; 6240; 6709; 5c0f; 8bf4; 79d2; 66f4; 65b0; 3002;
