Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Li Dingguo and Zhang Huangyan hurriedly bowed to accept the order:

"Abiding by the order, I will never disappoint His Majesty's high expectations, and strive to take Kyushu Island as soon as possible."

Zhu Youjian nodded slightly:

"Don't be in a hurry to swallow Japan in one go. Although no one is undead in a war, we should try our best to reduce the casualties of Ming soldiers.

After landing, destroy everything that can be destroyed, especially the Japanese navy in Kyushu, which must be destroyed. "

"According to the purpose"

The Satsuma clan is the main force of the Japanese navy. Zhu Youjian wants to clean up the Japanese combined fleet from the root. They are the main force of the Japanese naval battle of Sino-Japanese War, and they must not be allowed to exist.

Zhu Youjian pointed to the map and continued to send orders:

"Qi Jiguang led Qi's army and part of the navy led by Zheng Chenggong to attack Honshu Island.

In addition, Zheng Chenggong is responsible for dividing the Ming Navy into three groups to cooperate with the army in combat. It is best not to have too much difference in the strength of the three groups.

"According to the purpose"

After Qi Jiguang and Zheng Chenggong received the decree, Zhu Youjian pointed to the map and continued:

The decree was passed, and Zhang Mingzhen was appointed as the commander of the Navy's Third Route Army, leading a [-] navy to cooperate with Huang Degong's Longteng Army to attack Shikoku Island. "

"According to the purpose"

Zhu Youjian arranged all the tasks to attack Japan's three major islands, and handed over the maps of Kyushu Island, Honshu Island, and Shikoku Island to Qi Jiguang, Li Dingguo and Huang Degong respectively.

As for Hokkaido, Zhu Youjian decided to let it go for the time being this time.

There were very few people living in Hokkaido at that time, and there was no threat at all.

After taking the three big islands of Japan, we are cleaning up Hokkaido.

This time to attack Japan, the Dragon Teng Army, the Dragon Banner Army, and the Qi Family Army were all dispatched.

The three navies dispatched 3 troops each, for a total of [-] navies, including [-] marines.

Each navy dispatched twelve armored warships and two hundred sailing warships.

Before the departure of the third army of the Ming Dynasty, Lu Aiguo, the governor of North Korea, was mobilizing before the war.

The [-] North Korean troops lined up neatly, and their training methods were the same as those of the Ming Dynasty.

Under the personal training of Lu Aiguo, this North Korean army is also a well-trained army.

Not only is the military etiquette strict, but the combat effectiveness is also very strong. Although there are not many people, it is enough for the Japanese to drink a pot.

The army was about to set off, Lu Aiguo stood on the high platform and shouted loudly:

"Brothers of the Korean nationality, after you merge into Ming Dynasty, you will be a real member of Ming Dynasty.

In the past two years, your military pay has never been a day in arrears, and your relatives have closed their fields to eat and drink at home.

It was Daming who allowed you to live a life full of food and clothing. Now is the time for you to repay Daming. Are you willing to fight for Daming? "

Before Lu Aiguo finished speaking, fifty thousand Korean soldiers shouted in unison:

"Yes, we are proud of being the people of Daming, we are willing to be loyal to Daming, and willing to fight to the death for Daming."

Lu Aiguo nodded in satisfaction:

"Little Japanese wolves are ambitious, how many times in history have they invaded North Korea, every time North Korea has been devastated, every time it was Ming who sent troops to rescue you from the dire straits.

But today is different. His Majesty the Ming Emperor ordered us to launch an attack on Japan. This is the dream of many Koreans, and today it finally came true.

This general wants to hear your truth, are you willing to attack Little Japan? "

"Yes, we are willing, we will attack Japan, we will kill them all, we will rob them of all their women..."

Thinking of their relatives being brutally murdered and raped by the Japanese, the deep-seated hatred towards Japan finally broke out among the Korean soldiers.

Seeing the morale of the North Korean soldiers so high, Lu Aiguo was very excited. He felt that he could only fight with such soldiers.

Turning around, he said to his deputy Li Dongyang:

"Order the soldiers to board the ship and set off from Busan to forcefully cross the Tsushima Strait. Today, I will take Tsushima Island to General Ben."

Li Dongyang immediately stood at attention:

"Yes, my subordinates will immediately organize the soldiers to board the ship."

The Tsushima Strait extends from northeast to southwest, about 222 kilometers long, 41 kilometers at the narrowest point, 6-50 meters deep, and up to 100 meters deep.

Lu Aiguo led 250 warships to prepare to cross the Tsushima Strait.

On the [-]-kilometer Tsushima Strait, sailing warships flying the Daming Dragon flag are densely packed everywhere.

The warships stationed in North Korea were originally small, and almost all of them were tens of meters long.

But a few days ago, the imperial court directly sent two hundred large sailing warships, which suddenly increased the strength of the North Korean navy by several levels.

Lu Aiguo was full of confidence in successfully crossing the Tsushima Strait, and soon the fleet mightily crossed the middle of the Strait and approached the waters of Tsushima Island.

Chapter 693

() Chapter 693 Battle of the Tsushima Strait

Tsushima Island is not very big. There are more than 8000 troops stationed on the island and more than 20 warships.

As soon as Lu Aiguo's vanguard fleet crossed the center line of the Tsushima Strait, the Japanese on Tsushima Island discovered them.

The scouts hurriedly reported to the head of the island:

"General, something is wrong. The warships of the Koreans have crossed the center line of the strait. It seems that they have the intention of invading Tsushima Island."

Tsushima Island often conflicts with the North Koreans. You have come and gone for many years, and most of them are won by the Japanese.

The Japanese garrison on the island was to restrain North Korea, and Toyota Hideyoshi invaded North Korea and also landed in Busan through the Tsushima Strait.

The highest officer of Tsushima Island is a fantou named Huashan Jiusou, who is a cavalry general in Japan.

Hearing the report from his subordinates, Huashan Jiusou couldn't help but sneered:

"North Koreans are overthinking themselves, have they forgotten that we, the Great Japan, invaded them in history?
