    Cao Ling led the army into Ueno and found that the terrain here was really not suitable for large armies to fight. There were hills and dense forests everywhere, and some flat places were finally reclaimed into farmland!

    The rice in those farmlands has just grown to over a foot high, and there are still more than two months until harvest. No one has weeds in the farmlands. It can be seen that there were people farming here not long ago, but the clouds of war have come over.  The farmers didn¡¯t know where they had gone!

    Just as everyone was moving along the not-so-wide road, suddenly a group of less than a hundred warriors rushed out from the woods on one side of the road. Each of them held a long bow, and as soon as they rushed out of the woods, they opened their bows and shot arrows.  Suddenly, more than a hundred arrows were fired at Cao Ling's army!

    "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" The Imperial Association Army walking on the periphery bore the brunt, and in an instant, thirty or forty people were hit by arrows!

    However, although the long bows of the Japanese country are often much taller than the Japanese people, because the long bows of the Japanese country are made of bamboo and the arrows are mostly bamboo arrows, the range of the Japanese long bows is generally not very high.  Beyond fifty steps, the power is even less powerful!

    Therefore, in many Japanese film and television dramas of later generations, you can see scenes where people on the battlefield are shot like hedgehogs, but they can still fight!

    It is precisely because of the power of the Japanese long bow that the Japanese warriors who attacked were not far away from the army, and their power was even more limited. So they chose to shoot an arrow, then picked up the long bow and ran towards the mountains and forests.  !

    For these people, they don¡¯t care about the results of the battle. All they have to do is slow down Cao Ling¡¯s army and use this to show their bravery. To put it bluntly, they use this method to accumulate some bragging rights for themselves!

    But what these people encountered were Cao Ling's soldiers and horses. Although the arrows they fired injured thirty or forty Imperial Army soldiers and caused some chaos, it was not so easy for them to escape unscathed!

    Bang Bang Bang

    While the sneak attackers shot arrows and turned to run away, the guards around Cao Ling had already raised their rifles. As the sound of gunshots rang out from the not-too-dense crowd, almost all of the more than a hundred Japanese sneak attacks  Being thrown to the ground!

    Some of the Japanese lost their breath, some kept rolling and wailing, and a very small number of Japanese were not seriously injured. After getting up, they still insisted on running forward, but as the second round of gunfire came, those Japanese  A few lucky guys had blood holes on their bodies, and then fell to the ground!

    Seeing the woods close at hand, none of the more than a hundred Japanese attackers could escape into the woods. One attacker was shot once in the thigh and side, and half of his body was dyed red with blood, but  His strong desire to survive still supported him to crawl into the woods!

    At this time, Matsudaira Kubo had already sent a team of Imperial Alliance troops to rush towards the sneak attackers. These Imperial Alliance troops were not here to save people. They rushed to the side of the sneak attackers, killing them with one blow regardless of whether they were dead or alive.  Look down your head!

    The sneak attacker who was about to climb into the woods suddenly felt a big foot stepping on his back. When he turned around with difficulty, what he saw was a grinning Japanese man, holding a sword high.  !

    The light of the sword flashed, and everything disappeared. Only the victor happily picked up the loser's head with a spear and cheered!

    After eliminating this small wave of sneak attackers, Cao Ling's army continued on the road. As for the injured Imperial Army soldiers, because they were wearing cotton armor shipped from Jeju Island, their injuries were very minor. They were simply bandaged and continued to follow the army.  Onward!

    There were waves of sneak attacks along the way, but the damage caused to Cao Ling's army was minimal. On the contrary, the guys from the Imperial Alliance Army chopped off hundreds of heads, and the Imperial Alliance Army picked these heads on  On top of the spears, they were walking in a majestic manner, and there was no trace of their appearance that the dead people were their compatriots!

    On the second day after entering Ueno, Cao Ling's army arrived at Ueno Castle. This is a typical Japanese castle. It has a short moat, trapezoidal stone walls and a tall castle. It looks very unique and beautiful.  , but in Cao Ling's eyes it was of no use at all!

    Facing such a castle, Cao Ling didn't even bother to deploy anything. He directly asked the Imperial Army to block several entrances and exits of Ueno Castle, and then blasted it with three rounds of incendiary bombs!

    The Japanese castle, which was mainly built of wood, had no ability to resist incendiary bombs. In an instant, Ueno Castle turned into a sea of ??flames!

    The Ueno samurai, who were originally full of momentum and prepared to fight a brutal battle to defend the city to show that the samurai's life is as bright and short as cherry blossoms, now all became ants on the hot pot, scrambling to defend Ueno Castle.  A city gate is flying!

      It¡¯s just that after the samurai of Ueno Castle rushed out of the city gate, they faced the siege of the Imperial Association Army. For the Imperial Association Army that had surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, the samurai of Ueno Castle showed extreme contempt.  These warriors rushed towards the much larger Imperial Alliance Army without any hesitation!

    "Kill! Kill these cowardly idiots!"

    "Come for the glory of the Japanese warriors!"

    "Kill all these idiots who surrendered to Akito!"

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: The disgraced Ueno Castle samurai brandished the tachi in their hands and charged toward the enemy's formation with great bravery!

    But many times, bravery doesn¡¯t mean much, especially bravery without brains, which can only bring disaster. The Ueno Castle Samurai explains this result very well!

    Facing the swarming enemies, the Imperial Alliance Army, equipped with matchlocks and short crossbows, used the simplest three-stage shot to block the samurai of Ueno Castle on their way to escape!

    In front of them are dense arrows and projectiles, and in the back is the burning castle. The samurai of Ueno Castle are like little pitiful creatures caught between jackals and tigers. No matter how hard they try, they can only choose between being killed or burned to death.  !

    The battle continued until the sun went down. Ueno Castle lit up the sky like a huge torch in the dark night, and in front of the six gates of Ueno Castle, there were more than 20,000 corpses lying down!

    Cao Ling stood in his military tent and looked at the burning Ueno Castle. He actually didn't feel much joy in his heart, because although death and fire can bring victory, they cannot bring wealth!

    For Cao Ling, it makes no sense to destroy a city and kill tens of thousands of enemies after a battle, but only get ruins and piles of corpses!

    Only when you defeat the enemy and gain massive wealth at the same time is the real victory!

    ??Especially in a war to annihilate a country like now, if everything depends on the Ming Dynasty to provide supplies, then this will be another battle for Jiaozhi. Even a behemoth like the Ming Dynasty will be dragged down, eventually leading to the failure of the entire war!

    "Alas!" Thinking of this, Cao Ling couldn't help but sigh, but Wang Hua was not here, so no one dared to ask him why he sighed now!

    Cao Ling could only look at Ges Leng and Ma Xianglin. They were both top-notch murderers and arsonists. They were confused when it came to making money. When Cao Ling looked at them, he didn't know what Cao Ling meant!

    In desperation, Cao Ling could only ask: "If this battle is fought like this, we won't make much money. Please tell me, is there any way to solve this matter?"

    Gesleng and Ma Xianglin looked at each other, Gesselen smiled flatteringly and said: "Commander Commander, why should you worry about this? Those guys who support the fleet are burning, killing and looting everywhere, and they have to give us 30% of the money they got. This money is enough."  We spent money!"

    Ma Xianglin also nodded and said: "Yes! Sir, just last month the support fleet gave us two hundred thousand taels of silver. Isn't this money enough?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
