Chapter 1164 Failed Diao Yefu
The Kyushu conquest launched by the 860,000 Xia Army has come to an end. The Liaodong and Goryeo regiments led by Le Yi and Li Chenggui defeated the Ryuzoji family's forces, invaded Hizen Kingdom, and captured several cities including Saga Castle. !
Bai Qi pursued to the east, invaded Bunzen Kingdom, and captured Kokura Castle!
Then Bai Qi personally took charge of Kokura Castle to prevent the daimyo of Honshu Island from supporting Kyushu Island again.
Bai Qi also assigned Zhou Yu and Lu Xun to attack the Bungo Kingdom occupied by the Dayo family.
Yue Fei and Chu Wu went all-out south, captured Chikugo Kingdom, and then defeated Kumamoto Castle in Higo Kingdom. Finally, the army entered Satsuma Kingdom, where the Shimazu family was entrenched, and surrounded Demizu Castle.
The Shimazu family's stronghold was the inner city in the southern part of Satsuma Country, and reinforcements were sent to support Demizu Castle in the north.
After Oda Nobunaga, Tokugawa Ieyasu and others fled back to Honshu Island, conquering Kyushu Island was equivalent to conquering a county in the Central Plains. The Reiji Kingdom on Kyushu Island is equivalent to a county.
Hundreds of thousands of troops swept across a county, which was more than enough.
The Shimadzu family is still thinking about resisting.
The four Shimazu brothers are all ruthless people, and they still resist even when disaster strikes.
Satsuma samurai are also the most fierce warriors in Kyushu Island.
Shimazu Yoshihiro and Shimazu Iehisa led the Satsuma warriors of the Shimazu family to support Demizu Castle, hoping to defeat the invading Xia army in the popular and mountainous Satsuma country.
Shimazu Yoshihiro also had other ideas: "The tactic our Shimazu family is best at is the 'Diaoye Ambush'. Even if the Xia army is strong, they will be defeated once they are hit by our Diaoye Ambush."
"Brother, let me go and lure the enemy!"
"No, let me lure the enemy and you take command!"
Shimazu Yoshihiro is also considered a brave man. He knows that the core of the Shimazu family's "Diaoye Bushi" is to taunt the enemy and lure the enemy with their lives. The vanguard fights the Xia army, and then retreats while fighting. The Xia army introduced an ambush circle of iron artillery and archery teams.
The general who led the vanguard to lure the enemy narrowly escaped death, so Shimazu Yoshihiro and Shimazu Iehisa would compete for the vanguard position.
In the end, the older Shimazu Yoshihiro led the vanguard and provoked the Chu Wu and Yue Fei regiments besieging Deshui City, hoping to provoke them to attack.
"The Shimadzu family is good at 'fishing for wild ambushes', which is a type of ambush tactic. They just need to ignore it and continue to besiege Demizu Castle. Then, once the Shimazu family becomes angry, they will definitely launch an attack."
Zhuge Liang had already done enough homework when he conquered Kyushu Island, and he naturally knew the Shimazu family's almost unchanging tactic of "catching wild ambush".
The reason why the Shimadzu family's "fishing for wild ambush" tactic has been so successful is related to the enemy's ability to manage the army and the taunting effect of "fishing for wild ambush".
Ordinary generals, once successfully mocked by the Shimadzu family's vanguard, are likely to attack the Shimadzu army at all costs.
In this way, they often fall into the Shimadzu family's scheme.
However, because the Shimazu family consistently used the "catching wild ambush" tactic, it was obvious when they encountered generals and counselors like Yue Fei and Zhuge Liang.
"It makes sense. Su Lie, you put up a fence and only send archers to hide behind the fence and shoot. No matter how provocative he is, he can't hold on. In addition, Ji Qiandai, you lead the iron artillery team and guard the fence with Su Lie. .”
Chu Wu agreed with Zhuge Liang’s judgment.
Use the turtle tactic of holding on.
The essence of the Shimazu family's "fishing for wild ambush" tactic is to lure the enemy. Once the taunt fails, it will be difficult to succeed.
Su Lie controlled the army. Once the Shimazu family's vanguard came to provoke, thousands of arrows were fired to drive back the small vanguard.
"hateful!"
Shimazu Yoshihiro provoked him in every possible way, but Xia Jun just couldn't hold on. His vanguard couldn't even fight in close combat with Xia Jun, nor could he activate the taunting effect.
Yue Fei is attacking the city of Shui, and Shimazu Yoshihiro and Shimazu Iejiu are worried.
If the siege cannot be lifted, Izumi City will be captured no matter how popular the people are, and then the Xia army's goal will be the inner city, the main city of the Shimazu family.
"Brother, let's work together to defeat Xia Jun!"
"For today's plan, this is the only way."
The furious Shimazu Yoshihiro and Shimazu Iehisa forced the situation and had to charge towards the fence set by Xia Jun!
Lu Lingqi, Su Lie, Yang Xingmi, Zu Dashou and other generals fought on foot, mainly infantry, against the fierce Satsuma warriors of the Shimazu family!
After Qi Xue's army dismounted, he became a sharpshooter, and his arrows were all missed, taking the lives of many Satsuma warriors.
Lu Lingqi once again became unparalleled among the Satsuma warriors and restrained hundreds of Satsuma warriors.
Yang Xingmi led the surviving Black Cloud Long Sword Army to avenge the Kyushu War and took action with all his strength.
Shimazu Yoshihiro and the Shimazu family held samurai swords for a long time and achieved the goal of killing a hundred people.
However, the personal force of the Shimazu brothers was completely unable to save the crisis.

Zhuge's crossbowmen and Tachibana iron artillery team fired continuously, and the fierce Satsuma warriors were unable to withstand their attacks.
The battle lasted for several hours, and Shimazu Yoshihiro and Shimazu Iehisa were repulsed.
This time, Chu Wu followed Zhuge Liang's suggestion and did not pursue rashly. The purpose was to capture Deshui City and use it as a stronghold to attack the inner city, which disgusted the Shimazu family.
"Our reinforcements were repulsed..."
Yamada Yunobu, the elder of the Shimadzu family and guard general, fell into despair when he saw the reinforcements being repulsed on the city wall of Demizu Castle.
He knew that the daimyo on Honshu Island and Shikoku Island could not bear the losses caused by the Great War of Kyushu, and had abandoned Kyushu Island and the Shimazu family on Kyushu Island.
Yamada Yuxin summoned his son: "Come here, take him out of the city and surrender to the Xia army."
Yamada Yunobu knew that the Shimazu family only had tens of thousands of troops left, and it was impossible to resist the hundreds of thousands of Xia troops sweeping across the entire Kyushu Island.
If the troops are of equal strength, they can still defend by virtue of the geographical location.
But this time they were attacking not ordinary daimyo, but the Kyushu Crusade Army, which was larger than any daimyo.
Yamada Yunobu's son entered the Xia army camp as a hostage and surrendered to Yue Fei on behalf of the defender.
Yue Fei has conquered several cities on Kyushu Island and has already dispatched troops step by step to take over Chushui City.
Next, only the inner city of the Shimazu family is left, which is Kagoshima.
If the Shimazu family is completely eliminated, then the entire Kyushu Island will become a county of the Daxia Dynasty.
"March into the inner city!"
Yue Fei and Chu Wu captured Yamada Yunobu, and sent 3,000 soldiers to garrison Deshui City, and then attacked the inner city non-stop in order to achieve hegemony over Kyushu as soon as possible.
Shimazu Yoshihiro and Shimazu Iehisa still wanted to conduct a "fishing wild ambush" during the Xia army's march, but Zhuge Liang saw through it, and Yue Fei and Chu Wu responded to each other.
Once the Shimazu family taunts one troop, another troop will respond and counter-encircle the Shimazu samurai.
Shimazu Yoshihiro and Shimazu Iehisa suffered losses repeatedly, while Xia Jun advanced all the way and had reached the outskirts of the inner city.
The four Shimadzu brothers are plunged into an unprecedented crisis.
