The ninth son of the emperor was demoted at the beginning. I have a famous Chinese general.

Chapter 300 The storm is rising

...........

"Your Highness, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to handle such a large fleet."

Hearing this, Chen Qingzhi said with a serious expression.

"This king knows, and of course he will consider these things."

"The King will leave tomorrow and try to settle the last stronghold as soon as possible, and then return to Daqian."

"Then I will return immediately to bring you more soldiers and immigrants."

"And then, I will capture this entire fleet in one fell swoop."

"Actually, this isn't difficult. Don't we still have Philip Hughes to help us?"

"He's the deputy governor here. With his cooperation, it should be more than enough for us to capture this fleet."

Ning Quan said with a confident smile.

"Yes, I understand."

"Please rest assured, Your Highness. I will definitely fulfill my mission."

Chen Qingzhi quickly clasped his fists and accepted the order.

"Very good. This king believes in your ability."

"I will leave you two thousand soldiers, seven hundred women, and four hundred craftsmen."

"I'll also leave you three assault rifles, three thousand rounds of ammunition, and two hundred kilograms of explosives."

"As for the mortars, forget about them. You already have more than a dozen cannons here, plus the three captured warships also have cannons. That should be enough."

Ning Quan said lightly.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"Okay, then you and Philip Hughes can discuss the rest. You two should cooperate well."

"I will return to the ship and send the remaining troops to you tomorrow morning, and then I will leave immediately."

"Yes, I respectfully send your Highness off."

Chen Qingzhi bowed slightly and said.

Afterwards, Ning Quan drove the flying car back to the ship.

The next morning, Ning Quan transferred the soldiers and female craftsmen to the dock and handed them over to Chen Qingzhi.

Then we left by boat and headed for Santiago.

........

At the same time, in Nara, the capital of Japan.

Outside the palace, the sound of killing shook the sky.

After three days of hard fighting, Qi Jiguang led his troops to finally capture the imperial city and enter the palace.

At this time, the defenders outside the palace had been killed or wounded, and only a few hundred soldiers were still resisting stubbornly.

Inside the imperial palace, the Japanese rulers and royal family members were terrified and were hiding deep inside the palace, trembling in fear.

"Ah~"

With a scream, the last defender was killed.

Immediately afterwards, hundreds of Khitan soldiers rushed into the palace.

And the one walking in front was Qi Jiguang.

Looking at the group of royal family members in front of him, Qi Jiguang's face was full of murderous intent.

"We are willing to surrender, please let us go!"

"Please spare our lives!"

At this time, the ruler of Japan knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

"Kill them all, leave no one alive. Remember, chop off all their heads."

After hearing the words of the Japanese ruler, Qi Jiguang did not waver at all and spoke directly and firmly.

Upon hearing this, the ruler of Japan showed an expression of horror on his face.

Immediately afterwards, the Khitan soldiers rushed forward with a grim smile.

"Pfft~"

"Pfft~"

"Pfft~"

Drops of blood splattered onto the ground.

A moment later, the entire palace turned into a hell on earth.

None of the Japanese rulers, royal family members, eunuchs, ministers, and eunuchs were spared and were all killed.

Corpses littered the fields and rivers of blood flowed.

"Transfer all the property away, and then burn the palace."

After dealing with the Japanese royal family members, Qi Jiguang immediately gave orders.

"Yes!"

The generals under him responded quickly.

Then, thousands of soldiers began to quickly transfer wealth.

Half an hour later, the raging fire engulfed the entire palace.

Qi Jiguang and his men evacuated the palace.

"Military Advisor, the royal family has been destroyed and the palace has been burned down. What should we do next?"

When they arrived outside the palace, Qi Jiguang asked Jia Xu.

"This city cannot be saved and must be destroyed."

"His Highness said that he wanted to completely eradicate all of Japan's heritage, and the Imperial City is naturally part of that."

Jia Xu said calmly.

"Okay, do as the military advisor says."

"Come here, set fire to the city."

"Yes!"

A moment later, another fire engulfed the imperial city.

...........

At the same time, Daqian, Longyou County.

Crown Prince Ning Gao arrived in Longxi with an army of 400,000.

"Your Highness, we are now less than fifty miles away from the Hexi Territory. We estimate we will arrive tomorrow night."

A scout came to Ning Gao to report.

"Okay, tell all the troops to keep moving forward."

Ning Gao gave the order.

"Yes!"

Soon, Ning Gao led his troops to continue advancing towards Hexi.

At the same time, in the eastern part of Hexi County.

In Wanxiu City, Li Jing is in charge.

Wanxiu City is located at the junction of Hexi and Longyou, and is a must-pass place for attacking Hexi.

Li Jing led his troops to garrison here early, preparing to fight a major battle with Ning Gao here.

"General, the scouts report that Ning Gao and his troops are not far from Wanxiu City and are expected to arrive tomorrow night."

A captain stood in the middle of the tent and reported to Li Jing.

"Okay, pass the order down, all soldiers should be ready to welcome the arrival of the enemy." Li Jing said in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

The captain received the order and withdrew.

In the evening of the second day, Ning Gao led his army to the city of Wanxiu.

In Wanxiu City, Li Jing had already led his army to be on full alert.

"Humph, a mere small town like Wanxiu actually dares to block the path of my army. It's simply courting death."

Ning Gao looked at Wan Xiucheng coldly and said.

Wanxiu City is not big, the city wall is only three meters high, and the defense facilities are not complete.

Therefore, Ning Gao did not take Wanxiu City seriously at all.

The key point is that Li Jing's army totaled only about 150,000, while he had an army of 400,000 under his command, which was almost three times that of the enemy.

Moreover, these 400,000 troops are all elite, mainly from the Longyou Army, Hedong Army, and Fanyang Army. They were all under the command of the three kings of different surnames and are extremely powerful.

That's why Ning Gao was so confident and thought victory was within his grasp.

"Pass the order down, attack the city tomorrow morning."

Ning Gao shouted coldly.

"I will obey your orders!"

The messenger received the order and retreated.

.......

The next morning.

Ning Gao launched an attack as soon as daybreak.

"Dong~dong~dong~"

The drums rumbled, and tens of thousands of troops charged towards Wanxiu City.

"Order the archers to shoot!"

Seeing this, Li Jing immediately shouted.

"Whoosh~whoosh~whoosh~"

In an instant, countless arrows shot out from Wanxiu City.

“Ding ding ~ clang clang ~”

In an instant, a large number of the attacking army were shot down by dense arrows.

But this did not stop the besieging army, they continued to advance fiercely.

In just a moment, the siege army rushed to the foot of the city and set up ladders to climb towards the city.

"kill!"

Li Jing raised his sword and roared.

In an instant, countless soldiers picked up their spears and stabbed downwards.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Crack!"

For a moment, the two sides engaged in a fierce fight.

Blades clashed, weapons chopped, roars, and screams filled the entire battlefield.

In just a short moment, thousands of soldiers fell.
