Chapter 125: Brother Wokou! Daming free labor and cannon fodder!!
Sashima is about 40 kilometers away from the main island of Toei.
With the sailing conditions at that time, it was already a difficult journey for ordinary people.
At this time, Zhu Xiongying had already sent people to block the entire island.
Suddenly, all the news on the island could not be sent.
Zhu Xiongying also ordered:
If there are still ships for exiled criminals, or any other ships that arrive on Sajima, they are immediately seized in full.
However, so far, the Ming army has not seen any ships arriving from Dongying Main Island.
Suddenly, in strict secrecy.
Sashima industries have developed steadily and rapidly~.
While all the development work on Sashima Island is proceeding steadily, the naval officers and men of Daming are not idle.
While protecting Sajima, they swam around the sea south of Toei.
Before long, they destroyed several important Wakou and pirate bases entrenched along the coast of Toei and between the Ryukyu Islands, captured a new group of captives, and brought them to Sajima to work as cheap laborers.
At this point, the sea power of the Wokou was almost wiped out.
Those wokou didn’t think of it at all.
Originally, they entered the industry with the wealth of robbing Daming.
Today, they themselves have become the wealth of Daming – free labor is also the best retribution!
For a while, countless past wokou turned into hard labor for several days, doing heavy physical labor in Sajima, contributing their blood and sweat to the people of Daming!
Because of these actions of the Ming army, there was still some distance from Dongying Main Island.
Neither the Southern nor the Northern Dynasties detected these military operations.
Therefore, both the Ashikaga family and the Southern Emperor still live a life of drunken dreams and death.
These days, of course, Zhu Xiongying is not idle.
He insists on practicing Changsheng Gong every day.
At the same time, he often sent the golden falcon to fly back to Jinling to deliver news.
The Golden Falcon has a speed of 800 kilometers per hour, and it still flies in a straight line.
From Sashima to Jinling, it takes just over two hours, that is, a little more than an hour.
It’s really very convenient.
The content of Zhu Xiongying’s letter, in addition to military intelligence and state affairs, is a family affair.
In the military situation, of course, everything is going well on Zhu Xiongying’s side.
On the Jinling side, he has been paying attention to the situation in southern Xinjiang.
Sure enough, after Zhu Xiongying’s batch of divine rockets and new flintlock guns were transported, they dealt a major blow to the Yuan Army, the Burmese Army, and the Annan Army.
First, Lan Yu and Mu Ying concentrated their forces and attacked with a comparative line.
The cavalry of the Yuan army and the elephant soldiers of the Burmese army retreated and fled under the onslaught of the divine rocket.
Instead, he crushed his own team.
The Ming army took advantage of the victory to pursue and beheaded 50,000 people.
The Yuan army retreated to Dian and held on to several key points.
The Burmese army fled south and joined the Annan army.
Soon, Lan Yu and Mu Ying led their troops south to confront the Burmese and Annan armies on the southern front of Nanning Province on the edge of the jungle.
This is the latest battle situation that Zhu Xiongying received.
The next military situation will have to wait for the Golden Falcon to be further transmitted…
Zhu Xiongying was of course very happy to see that the results of the Shen rocket and the flintlock gun were so brilliant.
The rest of the correspondence focuses on the health of the family.
The most important point is to encourage everyone to continue to practice radio gymnastics and longevity.
To this end, he gave the task to Empress Ma and Chang.
Empress Ma urged Zhu Yuanzhang to practice.
Chang Shi urged Zhu Biao to practice.
Chang’s task is particularly important.
Because Zhu Biao is too lazy and does not like sports.
In the original world, this is why he lived to be in his 30s.
Therefore, Zhu Xiongying asked Chang Shi to ruthlessly urge Zhu Biao to practice.
Chang Shi listened to Zhu Xiongying’s words, and he was also ruthless.
Several times, she asked Zhu Yuanzhang for imperial orders before she successfully forced Zhu Biao to continue practicing.
Seeing that everyone was on the right track, Zhu Xiongying let go of his heart.
While there was nothing to do, Zhu Xiongying began to study the situation in Dongying with his subordinates
He and Qi Jiguang, Zheng He, Zheng Chenggong, and Nelson formulated a strategy for the future sweep.
Population looting is carried out first.
After everything on Sashima is on track, when there are enough manpower, the sea area will be cleared.
Then, they occupied all the important ports of Dongying and locked all the forces of Dongying on land.
Then gradually encroach inland, further controlling the entire frozen ying.
In short, this can be done to achieve victory at minimal cost.
After all, the life and blood of any Daming disciple are precious…
Due to Zhu Xiongying’s strong suppression, coupled with his purple qi.
Among the Yokou captives and local residents, many very high-ranking people appeared.
Among them, Saburo Higashino, Oji Sato, Tsuki Suzuki and several others are among the best.
These ‘traitors’ are even more enthusiastic about the annexation of Dongying than the Ming army at this time.
In particular, Saburo Higashino screamed all day to kill back to the main island.
He said that he would destroy the whole family of a public party who took his fiancée and take revenge on Xue Yuangen.
Seeing this, Zhu Xiongying simply set up a ‘Daming Army’.
Ready to fight in the future, send them to the lead and be cannon fodder.
Soon, after the Ming army plundered the population several times along the coast, preparations for the expedition were ready.
The first destination of the Ming army was the capital of the later Toei, Edo Port, and the adjacent Hengpenang Port.
These two ports, which were not only the most important ports in Dongying, but also the largest metropolitan area, were extremely prosperous.
This also proves the important strategic position of the two places.
Taking these two places is equivalent to controlling the core of the Kanto region.
Whether it is the forces of the Southern Dynasty or the forces of the Northern Dynasty, it is equivalent to having a broken arm.
This is also one of the main reasons why Zhu Xiongying chose these places as attack points.
At that time, Edo Port was still under the control of Prince Koryo of the Southern Dynasty
The southern port of Hengpenang was under the control of the Kamakura Gongfang forces of the Northern Dynasty
The Kamakura Kōkata of this generation is the son of the Ashikaga Ki clan and the cousin of the contemporary shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu!
