Chapter 11 Ryukyu Province (II)

"Now I will give you two a chance to survive, which means that one of you will survive." Hong Chengchou did not want to interrogate Sasaki Jiro, because there was no need to worry about wars not at the same level, so he didn't have to worry about too much. He just happened to test the combat effectiveness of the Marine Corps. After all, wars were different exercises.

Looking at this elegant man, Masao Asakura felt that it was the real demon's smile. His already pale face instantly became bigger and pale. He looked at his Sasaki Jiro inexplicably. He wanted to live but not die because he was afraid of death!

"Get two knives!" Song Xiance smiled unpredictably and cooperated to command his guard.

In a moment, two Japanese samurai swords captured from the battlefield were taken over by the guards. The blood on it seemed that it had not dried yet, and it emitted a faint smell of blood.

"You are not used to our Ming Dynasty swords. For fairness, you will use the samurai swords you are used to, each person, whoever kills the other party first will survive!" A faint smile appeared on the corner of Hong Chengchou's mouth, but in the eyes of Jiro Sasaki and Masao Asakura, that smile was even more bone-cherry than the cold wind in the severe winter.

With a "bang", two samurai swords were thrown in front of the two people.

"Eight squares!" A fire spurted out from Sasaki Jiro's eyes, but his voice seemed not as loud as before.

"Pick up your sword, aren't you warriors?" Hong Chengchou's military officer, Hong Jiu, yelled at the two of them. At this time, there were already a circle of naval officers and soldiers who had no mission to rest. Everyone looked at the two of them with fun, but because the Supreme Commander was there, everyone was watching quietly, and no one dared to make a sound.

Hong Chengchou did not disperse the crowd. In his opinion, this was a lesson to educate officers and soldiers, allowing them to understand what the price is to be a prisoner!

Asakura Masao got up and grabbed his samurai sword. The desire to survive dominated the person opposite him. Family affection and friendship were not as important as his own life. Human nature became distorted at this time, and living was his only thought.

"Eight, Eight, Asakura Masao, you are the scum among our great Japanese samurai and a traitor to the Shimazu family!" Sasaki Jiro cursed.

Asakura Masaoichi grasped the hilt of the black fish-patterned knife of the samurai sword. There was no trace of pity on his face. Instead, he looked ferocious and shouted at Jiro Sasaki: "Sasaki, even if we are loyal, we will die in the end. Today, either you die or I die, we have no way out!"

"Coward, Asakura, you are not worthy of being a samurai!" Sasaki Jiro roared.

Asakura Masao smiled grimly, grabbed the samurai sword, staggered and stood up, laughed wildly, and said loudly: "Sasaki, others don't know how your captain was. I know, do you think you gave your wife to the general's son Yoshio Karayama, but I don't know? Ah, hahaha..."

There is also such a thing? Hong Chengchou and Song Xiance wanted to laugh after hearing this. Such generals and soldiers won't be powerful!

"Asakura, you, you, you..." Sasaki Jiro's face turned flushed. Although he didn't care about putting on his cuckold, he was told by someone who gave him a name. It was a great humiliation.

"What, Sasaki, are you worthy of being a samurai?" Asakura Masao mocked him.

"I, I want to kill you!" Jiro Sasaki was so angry that he grabbed his own samurai sword and rushed towards Asakura Masao.

"This Asakura Masao is a little smart and knows that he angered that Jiro Sasaki, it seems that Lord Zhou Wenyuan will be satisfied." Hong Chengchou turned his head and quietly said to Song Xianke.

"Soldiers who can survive on the battlefield are good soldiers." Song Xiance said with a smile.

"Oh, don't you think this little dwarf is afraid of death? Can he still be considered a soldier? According to their words, he is not worthy of being a warrior at all?" Hong Chengchou said with a hint of surprise.

"It's true that he is afraid of death, but at least he knows how to judge the situation and advance and retreat." Song Xiance said.

"Oh. As you say that, he is still a talent?" Hong Chengchou said "huh". The two of them had already hit each other, but now they were separated again, staring at each other again, preparing to use the second strike.

"Hehe, this is what you said, I didn't say it." Song Xiance smiled, his eyes not leaving the scene of the two fighting.

Neither Asakura Masao nor Sasaki Jiro were sure to kill the other party with the first blow, but this blow also announced that their years of friendship finally ended, and the next thing would be the end of one party falling down.

The hope of survival defeated all fears. Asakura Masao burst out with combat power that had never appeared before. It was Jiro Sasaki who had been too comfortable in the past two years. His figure was getting wider and his wine and color had emptied his body. He was originally above Masao Asakura, now he was unable to do so. In addition to his anger, he had a draw with Masao Asakura.

"Sasaki, don't worry. After you die, I will take good care of your wife and women. This can be regarded as repaying your care for me over the years!" Asakura Masao once again stimulated Sasaki.

"It's interesting. People who are afraid of death may not be unable to do anything. I am becoming more and more interested in this Asakura Masao." Hong Chengchou said with a smile.

Song Xiance joked: "It turns out that I don't know that Lao Hong, you are so lucky, and you have such a perverted hobby. You like this kind of chewing and short-skinned one!"

The guards standing by the side automatically filtered out the words of the two main generals, except for despising the two Japanese in the battle, and did not dare to make any laughs.

Hong Chengchou glared at Song Xiance fiercely, and said no matter what occasion. Song Xiance also knew that this was not the time when the two of them were teasing casually, so he immediately closed his mouth that was owed.

As Asakura Masao and Sasaki Jiro jumped several times in the duel arena like monkeys, the samurai sword in their hands also bumped several times, and the two figures separated, holding the samurai sword in their hands tightly, staring at each other with breathing.

"Kill--" As Sasaki Jiro shouted loudly, his body leaned forward, and he slashed forward with a knife, slashing towards Asakura Masao with the fastest speed and strength he had in a flat body.

"This knife is good, a bit imposing!" Hong Chengchou commented psychologically. In fact, he was disdainful of the so-called swordsmanship and swordsmanship in Japan. He simply learned some of the basics of Chinese martial arts, so he called him a master or something, and he also created a school of things. They were all vulnerable!

Asakura Masao grew up with Jiro Sasaki. How could he not understand the details of this young man? Although this sword is very powerful, Masao Asakura showed a little nervousness. The samurai sword in his hand greeted him. A "default" sound of Jin Ming, sparks flew everywhere. Asakura Jiro used all his strength, although Masao Asakura blocked the sword, he was knocked back three steps by the powerful force. The tiger's mouth cracked open and blood burst out. The samurai sword in his hand almost broke out.

Jiro Sasaki was in power and was unforgivable. He screamed strangely, and a knife slashed at Masao Asakura. Masao Asakura was so scared that he quickly lifted the sword to block it. Fortunately, the recoil force of the sword just now was not small. Jiro Sasaki did not wait for the new force to generate it, and the power of the second sword was not very strong, but it was just the end of the strong crossbow. Masao Asakura tried his best to block this sword, because if he couldn't stop it, he would have to be split in half.

No one expected that Masao Asakura actually knocked the samurai sword in Sasaki Jiro's hand away with a seemingly light block.

Sasaki Jiro was stunned in the air with no hands, but Asakura Masao was ecstatic and stabbed the samurai sword in his hand into Sasaki Jiro's chest without any effort!

Sasaki Jiro fell down on his back with unwilling surprise.

No one expected that Jiro Sasaki fell down so quickly, which was a bit incredible, but Hong Seungchou announced indifferently that Masao Asakura won the victory and could survive, while Jiro Sasaki's body was quickly dragged down and buried casually.

Not long after, Asakura Masao was forgotten by everyone, and no one would remember that there was a coward who killed his best friend for himself. When he lived within people's sight again, he was no longer the man Asakura Masao.

As for how many people like Asakura Masao will be, no one will know, because there are no people who Hong Chengchou gave to Zhou Wenyuan, who will survive. This is simply a secret. It was not until hundreds of years after Japan was completely incorporated into the Ming Dynasty that this long-standing history was discovered from the secret archives of the MIIS.

Naha Port is the sound of cannons that have shaken the long-standing peaceful capital of Ryukyu Shuri Castle. Hong Chengchou has no news of blocking it. Therefore, the news that Naha Port, Yarō Mori Castle and Mie Castle were occupied by the Ming army by lightning quickly reached the anxious King Shangfeng, who was anxious and restless in the Ryukyu Palace.

"What should I do?" King Shangfeng was so anxious that he scratched his head, without any idea. The Ming Dynasty was not the Samofan of Japan. It was a superpower with millions of armies. One person could sink the entire Da Ryukyu Island with one mouthful of spit.

However, King Shangfeng was anxious, and the Prime Minister Kikuchi was even more anxious than him. Once the Ming Dynasty occupied Shuri Castle, the interests of Satsuma Shimazu and Tokugawa Shogunate would be completely seized by the Ming Dynasty. At that time, Japan would have to survive under the breath of the Ming Dynasty. This would definitely be a disaster for the Tokugawa Shogunate and Satsuma Shimazu. Faced with a giant like the Ming Dynasty, neither Tokugawa Shogunate nor Satsuma Shimazu could have the idea of ​​resisting. Ryukyu was over. This was the first thought after Kikuchi received the war report.

Ryukyu had a small population and scarce resources. If the King of Ryukyu had not been pleaded with the Ming Dynasty to allow the people of the thirteen surnames in Fujian to immigrate to Ryukyu, Ryukyu might not have been in this situation. It can be said that more than half of the Ryukyu people living in Ryukyu were my Chinese people, and Chinese was the official language of Ryukyu. Although Ryukyu was influenced by Japanese language, they all regarded China as the official. If Ryukyu returned to the Central Plains, I would have had enough of the Ryukyu people oppressed by Satsumashimazu, they would have agreed with both hands and feet!

The country's troops in Ryukyu are no more than 10,000, most of them cannot be considered combat troops. At most, they are patrolling and catching thieves. The strongest combat effectiveness is the palace guard of the Ryukyu king. This army is the guardian of the Ryukyu royal family. However, since it was invaded by Satsuma Shimazu, this palace guard has been rebuilt by King Shangfeng, but it has not received effective training and its weapons and equipment are relatively low. I am afraid that they will threaten the garrison of the Shimazu family. I can only say that it is a very beautiful army, flashy and unreal!

"Resist, you must resist!" Ju Yin stubbornly issued an order to resist! Because although the Ming fleet was powerful, it might not be the opponent of the Japanese Satsuma Shimazu family army when it arrived on the shore. Moreover, the Ming army landed on the shore less than 4,000 people. Apart from the troops guarding Naha and the two cities, it would only take 3,000 people at most, which was equivalent to the number of troops garrisoned by Satsuma Shimazu in Shuri Castle and Ryukyu's own army. Therefore, even if you can't compete, you are still confident that you can defend Shuri and wait for the reinforcements of the family.
