Chapter 250: One Strike to Defeat the Enemy, Reading the Imperial Edict

Seeing Zhang Xianzhong's strange blood shadow clone, the surrounding Celestial soldiers couldn't help but be slightly wary.

It wasn't until Li Shu waved his hand that everyone put down their guard and went about their business again.

However, a part of his mind was still focused on Zhang Xianzhong's location.

If he does anything inappropriate, he will receive a thunderous strike to kill him instantly.

"General!"

Zhang Xianzhong didn't care about everyone's vigilance and just bowed his hand towards Li Shu.

Anyway, he is just the incarnation of a blood shadow now. Even if he is killed, he will not lose anything.

"Leader Zhang!"

Facing Zhang Xianzhong, Li Shu also bowed in return.

Just its name made Zhang Xianzhong pause slightly, and his blood shadow incarnation made ripples of blood.

Why is he now the man who founded the country and proclaimed himself the emperor? It's just not enough to call him His Majesty the Emperor. How can he still be called a leader?

Isn't this a bit insulting, and you still regard him as the leader of the rebellion?

However, at this time, the situation was stronger than the person. Although he was extremely unhappy in his heart, he could only suppress it and said with a forced smile.

"Haha, easy to say, easy to say!"

Fortunately, he is now the incarnation of Blood Shadow, and there is no change in his expression.

However, if there is fire, it must be vented.

In a town of thousands of people on Jiuzhou Island, a violent wind of bloody color blew over in an instant. The thousands of people affected were instantly eroded and melted, turning into blood mist and blending into the wind.

After venting his anger, Zhang Xianzhong calmed down a bit and bowed his hand to Li Shu again.

"Don't you know this general's surname?"

"Well, I am the General of Zhenhai and the Marquis of Jinghai, Li Shu, who has been personally consecrated by His Majesty."

"Oh, it turns out that it was Mr. Li who was disrespectful and disrespectful in person.

I will lead the way for you."

Zhang Xianzhong said with a smile.

"Well, okay, then I'll ask Leader Zhang."

With Zhang Xianzhong, who was familiar with the waterway, to guide them, Li Shu and the others quickly arrived at Honshu Island.

When Li Shu and the others informed them of their intention, they immediately attracted ridicule from the coastal lords.

"Hahaha, what kind of thing dares to come to our Japanese country to show off its power?"

"What kind of imperial edict of punishment was announced? Do you really think that by taking the name of the Celestial Dynasty, you have become the Celestial Dynasty?"

"Haha, sooner or later, our country, the Japanese, will conquer China and let them know that only we, the Japanese, are the superior people."

"But General, I see that those steel warships of the Celestial Empire are very difficult to deal with.

I heard that the Spaniards were all exterminated and expelled by them."

"Not easy to mess with? No matter how easy it is, there are only four ships.

As for the Spaniards

After all, they are alone overseas, and in the absence of local supply support, it is normal for them to be expelled."

"Yes, we are different. Our country of Japan has a population of more than 20 million, but those people from the Celestial Dynasty came from afar.

How many people can there be?

The situation is clear at a glance.

The advantage is mine! "

"Yes, the advantage is mine!"

"Well, contact the nearby lords and see if we can join forces to capture those Chinese warships."

As the leader, after thinking for a moment, Jianzhuang gave the order.

"General, do you want to inform the Daimyo?"

Their area is nominally owned by the Mori clan.

"Well, you must be notified.

Such a steel warship is not something that we lords can covet.

However, if we take the lead and make great achievements, we may not be unable to obtain one."

After receiving the news, the daimyo Mouri Kojiro had the same idea as everyone else, and immediately summoned men to prepare to attack the people from the Celestial Dynasty.

Three days later, Mouri Kojiro gathered a large number of samurai, military warships, etc., and rushed to the warship where Li Shu and others were.

Powerful auras bloomed one after another, and then connected into channels, turning into an overwhelming majestic momentum, pressing towards Li Shu and the others.

Even the waves on the sea are suppressed and calm, like a mirror. Only when ships pass by will the water marks be cut.

Seeing this scene, Li Shu couldn't help but have a smile on his face. It was not in vain that he had waited so long to finally get these Japanese people together.

"fire!"

"Boom boom boom"

In an instant, this area of ​​​​the sea was filled with artillery fire. The military formation composed of Japanese warriors only lasted for a moment before being torn apart and destroyed by the continuous artillery fire.

Without the blessing and protection of the military formation, most of the Japanese sampans and warships were destroyed in an instant and slowly sank into the sea.

At a place on the shore, Mouri Kojiro, who was watching all this, staggered momentarily and his face turned pale.

"It's over, it's over."

In order to capture the steel warships of the Celestial Empire, he basically mobilized all the forces of the Maori family.

And this time, most of them were destroyed by the Celestial Empire, which doomed the decline of the Maori family.

What's more, the battle is not over yet.

Looking at the soaring flames that reflected half of the sky in front of him, Li Shu's heart did not waver at all, and he just made people attack one after another.

Looking at the cannons firing shells one after another, and the Japanese fleet that was mostly destroyed in a matter of seconds, Zhang Xianzhong couldn't help but open his mouth slightly, showing an expression of disbelief.

How can this be?

Although he was still in China, he knew that the life-saving weapons at that time were sharp.

However, it is definitely far from what it is now.

Unable to help, Zhang Xianzhong looked at those cannons with a fiery look, wishing to pull them back to his own Daxi Kingdom right now.

If he had such powerful firearms, he would be confident that he could lead the Daxi Army to sweep across the entire Japanese Kingdom.

At the same time, he looked down on the dynasty even more.

It was not that he looked down on his strength and power, but that he looked down on his courage.

You said that you have such powerful firearms, why did you only issue an order to reprimand the Japanese provocation?

If it were him, he would definitely send a large army to destroy the Japanese Kingdom.

After a while, all the Japanese ships on the sea were destroyed.

Li Shu looked coldly at the shore, where the dragon's luck was manifested.

That was where Maori Kojiro was.

Because of the inherent national conditions of Japan, the emperor was a puppet, and the military and political power was controlled by the shogunate.

Therefore, in addition to the luck dragon that manifested the national destiny, the shogun and the daimyo also had slightly inferior luck.

For example, the current shogun, Tokugawa Iemitsu, had dragon energy that was not inferior to the emperor, and the daimyo also had dragon luck.

When Li Shu looked over, Maori Kojiro felt cold all over, and a sense of death crisis enveloped his heart.

However, just when he thought that he was about to die this time.

But he found that Li Shu did not order people to attack with that terrifying firearm, but took out a bright yellow scroll from the hand of a person beside him and slowly unfolded it.

Li Shu looked at the imperial edict in front of him and couldn't help but frowned slightly.

On the bright yellow brocade, lines of dark text appeared.

The strange power impacted the mind, and countless chaotic thoughts rose one after another, as if there were countless strange whispers whispering in the ear.

At this time, Li Shu only felt a dizziness in his brain and a feeling of nausea in his heart.

But the next moment, the positions of General Zhenhai and Marquis Jinghai in his mind were all shaken, and a clear and spiritual power spread instantly, driving away all the discomfort in his heart.

"Hu~!"

Li Shu looked at the imperial edict in front of him with fear, took a deep breath secretly, and read out the content slowly with a solemn look.

"By the Emperor of Heaven, the edict says: Now there is a country called Japan, which is not allowed to be governed by the king and provokes the upper country.

It should be demoted to the most evil place in the world."

As Li Shu read the imperial edict, infinite golden light bloomed instantly, and the mighty momentum spread like a flood.

Zhang Xianzhong, who was standing beside Li Shu, felt a huge force suddenly suppress him. The power in his body was instantly disordered, and blood ripples appeared all over his body, and large pieces of blood mist were steaming up, but they were instantly melted away.

If it weren't for this time, the dragon energy in his body would also suddenly bloom with a ray of brilliance, slightly curbing the purification and dissolution of the dragon energy of the Celestial Dynasty's national destiny.

I'm afraid that in just a breath, his blood shadow clone condensed by evil methods would be purified and wiped out by the national destiny dragon energy carried by the imperial edict.

But even so, it only slightly curbed the speed of the body's dissipation.

Even the spiritual consciousness was strongly purified and dissolved.

"Ah~!"

The pain from the spirit instantly made Zhang Xianzhong roar.

He thought about the blood shadow clone and taking back the spiritual consciousness inherited from it.

However, the golden light transformed by the surrounding dragon energy isolated the inside and outside at this time, making it impossible for his spiritual consciousness to withdraw, and he could only endure the pain.

As if he had discovered that his condition was not right, Li Shu's voice suddenly came into his mind.

"Ah~, sorry, I almost forgot that the destiny of our Celestial Empire is the most restraining force of evil.

I actually forgot to block you out.

Please bear with me, Chief Zhang."

Looking at Li Shu who was still reading the imperial edict slowly and listening to the voice in his mind, Zhang Xianzhong felt full of ridicule and could not help but roar loudly in his heart.

Since you have already discovered it, then move your power away.

Are you seeking revenge for personal gain?

Didn't some conflicts happen before, and I deliberately showed my power again? Is it necessary to target him everywhere like this?

In fact, if it was just like this, Li Shu might not have targeted him specifically.

Although the Celestial Empire occupied the entire territory of the Ming Dynasty in a short period of time, it focused most of its attention on its own development, and even almost forgot about Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong who fled overseas.

However, when they met again, their actions in Shenzhou still quickly came to Li Shu's mind.

In Fengyang, innocent people were slaughtered, including the elderly, women, children, and even infants and pregnant women.

Although Fengyang was still under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty at that time.

However, they now belong to the Celestial Empire.

Li Shu naturally did not have a good impression of Zhang Xianzhong.

Moreover, the dynasty had said that if Zhang Xianzhong was caught, he would be executed.

If it were not for this time, Zhang Xianzhong had already established a country overseas, and he was so quick to bow his head, and was in a hostile state with the Japanese country, Li Shu might even attack the Great Western Kingdom.

As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Although Li Shu did not regard Zhang Xianzhong and the Great Western Kingdom as friends,

However, there was always a sense of incense and friendship between them as fellow Shenzhou people.

However, despite this, it was inevitable to punish and play with him.

Until he saw Zhang Xianzhong's blood shadow clone, which had turned into a light red color, and his body was extremely illusory, as if it would collapse at any time.

Only then did Li Shu have an idea, and through the imperial edict in his hand, he controlled the national destiny dragon energy around him and avoided Zhang Xianzhong.

"Hu~!"

Without the suppression and dissolution of the national destiny dragon energy, Zhang Xianzhong couldn't help but let out a long breath of turbid air.

After recovering, Zhang Xianzhong looked at Li Shu with a flickering look.

However, no matter what Zhang Xianzhong thought in his heart, Li Shu was still reading the imperial edict, and his voice was mighty. With the blessing of the national destiny dragon energy, it spread throughout the entire Wa country and the surrounding area of ​​thousands of miles.

All those who heard the voice looked here.

"Ask? Punishment?"

In Edo, the shogun Tokugawa Iemitsu looked at the vast golden light in the southwest direction, frowning slightly, and was also a little ridiculous.

What demoted Wa country to an extremely evil place?

Haha, so what if you degrade this place to the abyss of hell?

In this world, what you say is not what it is.

They live the same life even if they have a bad reputation.

In Kyoto, the 105th Emperor of Japan, Emperor Goyozei, also looked to the southwest and murmured in a low voice.

"Is this emperor of the Celestial Empire too kind and weak?

I thought that this could be used to curb the Tokugawa family and even weaken the strength of each daimyo.

I didn't expect that he just came here to read an imperial edict."

On the coast in front of Li Shu and others, Maori Kojiro, who was waiting to die, suddenly became energetic after hearing the content of the imperial edict.

This general of the Celestial Empire should not attack again, right?

According to the etiquette and etiquette of the Celestial Empire, these generals should not disobey the orders of the emperor of the Celestial Empire.

So, his life should be saved.

Unable to help, a look of joy appeared on his face, and even the look he gave Li Shu was full of sarcasm.

If you have the ability, come on.

Let's see if you dare to disobey the order of your emperor.

Well, if Li Shu could know his inner voice, he would definitely tell him loudly.

There is also a saying in the Celestial Empire, that is, when a general is away from home, he is not subject to the orders of the emperor.

At the same time, the dynasty did not impose various restrictions on these border generals like other dynasties.

The dynasty even gave them the right to start a war, and they only needed to make a report afterwards.

In a word, all the border generals who provoked the Celestial Empire had the right and obligation to fight back fiercely.

In addition, the other daimyo lords of the Japanese Kingdom, the neighboring Great Western Kingdom, and Zhang Xianzhong who stood next to Li Shu.

And the Dashun Li Zicheng and others who could also hear some voices, all looked in this direction, their expressions changing. (End of this chapter)
