The evil forces roaming the heavens

Chapter 355: Once is new, twice is familiar!

On the blue sea, the Ming navy was fighting like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves.

When the original one thousand or two thousand pirates could not satisfy them, Zhang Cheng's ambitions began to grow.
Because he knew that it was time for him to do something.
As the ship sailed eastward, Zhang Cheng began to plan for plunder.

Half a month later, we crossed Jeju Island.

"General, where are we going? There is not much food left on the fleet!"

A deputy general saw that the direction was not right and asked in surprise,
"I'll take my brothers to borrow some silver!"

Looking at the deputy general beside him, Zhang Cheng smiled.

"Borrow money?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in confusion, the deputy general had a bewildered look on his face.

But at this moment, Ding Xiu came running back and said, "I see land! I see land!"

"It seems that the navigation I learned is still somewhat useful!"

Zhang Cheng opened his mouth with a smile on his face, then pointed forward and said, "After you get ashore, you can take the silver yourself."

"You can take the silver yourself?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in disbelief, the deputy general spoke in astonishment.
"Since the Japanese pirates can go to Ming Dynasty, why can't we come here?"

Looking at the deputy general beside him, Zhang Cheng patted his shoulder and said, "Don't you know that compared to the salary earned through hard work, robbing is the fastest way to get it?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in astonishment, the deputy general's eyes were red as he swallowed his saliva and said, "But this matter!"

"Don't worry, His Majesty will support us when the time comes!"

Thinking of the mines at Iwami Silver Mine, Zhang Cheng didn't believe that poor Jiajing could afford it.
Even if he didn't want to rob, the officials in the court would have to send troops at all costs.
You know, there is no one in this world who can refuse benefits.
The Ming Dynasty is now almost completely poor. If it doesn’t do something “inhumane”, it will really go bankrupt!
Anyway, this is not the first time he comes here. Besides, the first time is new, the second time is familiar. As the big brother, I "lend you" some money and let you work like a dog, and you still have the nerve to bark. Do you want to be beaten?
A day later, the Ming army's warships were seen docking.
When the surrounding villagers saw this scene and were puzzled, Zhang Cheng shouted angrily: "From now on, march quickly and head towards Iwami!"

Quickly lining up, the Ming troops assembled immediately.

Trembling in front of the Ming army, a village chief said, "May I ask, sirs, you..."

"What are you talking about? Behead him!"

Pointing to a place not far away, Ding Xiu immediately scolded,

"Wow!"

Drawing out the sword, the soldier cut him down directly.
Seeing this scene, the remaining villagers were so scared that they ran away.

"seal!"

Speaking calmly, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"Yes!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's order, the cavalry rushed out quickly.
Soon, a raging fire started. Zhang Cheng waved his hand forward, and the 8,000-strong army moved forward quickly.
Don’t think that the Ming navy can only fight at sea and on the river. Once ashore, the Ming army with full pay can fight ten enemies at once!
Two days later, when the daimyo of the Niwa clan learned that the Ming army had landed, he was stunned.

Because he couldn't remember when he had ever provoked the Ming Dynasty!
And how could the Ming army land on its own territory?

When the Amago clan sent their retainer to the front, they suddenly learned that the Ming army was heading for Iwami Ginzan.

Hearing this, the daimyo of the Amago family almost cried out.
Because Iwami Silver Mine was the existence that supported the Nizi family's "hegemony". If it was taken away by the Ming army, how could they survive? But Zhang Cheng didn't care about that, because for him, those who couldn't live could die!
After all, kindness is something he has no use for!
The Ming army quickly captured Iwami Silver Mine. When they saw the silver being refined, they were stunned.
There were even many soldiers who had learned to be craftsmen and took the initiative to undertake technical reforms, allowing them to refine silver faster.
Inside the military tent, all the generals were staring at the table, stunned.

Because it’s all silver!
"Everyone, I won't say anything more."

Knocking on the table, Zhang Cheng spoke with a smile in his eyes.
"General, there is no need to say anything. This silver mine has belonged to our Ming Dynasty since ancient times. No one can help it!"

A deputy general stood up and slammed the table, and immediately roared,

"Yes, this silver mine originally belonged to my Ming Dynasty, but these Japanese pirates actually took over my Ming Dynasty mine by force. It's simply shameful!"

Many Ming army generals were filled with grief and anger.

"No, I mean, there are too few people mining!"

Looking at the generals who shared the same hatred for the enemy, Zhang Cheng's mouth twitched.
He thought everyone's bottom line was very flexible, but he didn't expect that they had no bottom line at all!
At least Zhang Cheng admitted that he came to rob, but they directly said that the silver mine belonged to the Ming Dynasty. This is outrageous!

Naval commander: You must have a legitimate reason for going to war, General!

Zhang Cheng: Ah, do you need a reason to be a gangster?
Situ Yaozu: When we fought South Asia back then, we just rushed in with knives in hand!
Sent urgently to serve as a minister, the Amago family was so anxious that their faces turned pale.

However, before the so-called offerings could be paid, the patrolling Ming army threw them into the Iwami Silver Mine to mine.
Because all the Japanese pirates in the surrounding area were captured, and every person had to be thrown into the silver mine.

After several days of no reply, the Niwa family became angry, because even if you are the Celestial Empire, you cannot bully others!
Thinking of this, the Nizi clan immediately began to recruit soldiers.

When the Nizi clan, with 5,000 troops, was planning to confront Zhang Cheng head-on, they found out that the person they were facing was actually his own father!

"Five thousand people, including the farmers, there should be at least eight or nine thousand, right?"

Touching his chin, Zhang Cheng stood on the hill and spoke.
As for why it is called a hill, it is because the mountains here are really short.

"Sir, we can't kill all these people. We are so short of miners!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng beside him, the deputy general's face was full of excitement.
"Then I'll listen to you and mine everything!"

Waving his hand calmly, Zhang Cheng spoke nonchalantly,
"kill!"

Waving his sword in his hand, the daimyo of the Amago clan could not help but roar.
But before his 5,000 troops could charge out, they saw cannon fire.
"Boom boom boom!"

More than a dozen cannons flew out steel balls, instantly plowing a bloody line.
Seeing this scene, the deputy general shouted: "Who the hell fired the cannon? Don't you know that these are important miners of our Ming Dynasty? Capture them alive! Capture them alive!"

Looking at the exasperated deputy general, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but twitch his lips.
Because once people regard something as their own, they will begin to cherish it very much!
"This is impossible. How could the samurai of my Amago family be defeated so easily?"

The daimyo of the Amago clan was stunned when he saw the five thousand foot soldiers and hundreds of samurai being defeated.

At this moment, a Ming soldier wearing cotton armor came up to him, looked down at him and said, "Fuck, this guy is really short and wearing such thick clothes, can he jump up?"

He sneered and the Ming soldiers couldn't help but smile.
"Oh, it's a big fish. Its head is worth at least twenty taels, right?"

Looking at the armors of different colors, another Ming soldier also came up carrying a sword.

Looking at the giant-like Ming army, the daimyo of the Amago clan collapsed on the ground.

Since ordinary Ming troops were so fierce, how terrifying must their generals be?
Altan: Listen to me, if you have a tough life, just go for it, and no one will say a word once you go for it!
