Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

Japanese pirates, Shikoku Island.

After Ren Yuan captured Kyushu Island, according to the "Liangshan Peace and Naval Mutual Assistance Alliance", Liangshan sent General Huyan Bao's Pinghai Army to Kyushu Island, and used Kyushu Island as a springboard to seize the opportunity to invade the other three islands of Japan.

Huyan Bao was also very concerned about this operation, because his Pinghai Army was indeed having a difficult time in the Song Dynasty.

So the old general didn't want to tolerate it anymore. Ren Yuan, that little guy, had the courage to expand the territory. How could Hu Yanbao, a descendant of a prestigious family, fall behind?

Therefore, he had his eldest grandson, Huyan Qipeng, personally select 50,000 elite naval troops, and personally oversee the procession, which then sailed in a grand procession to Kyushu Island!

Here, he indeed saw a very different scene.

Liangshan has completely turned this large island into their resource repository!

Huyan Bao even saw a familiar face – it turned out to be Li Congji, one of the military governors!

"Xiao Li, you're here too?"

Hu Yanbao was older than Zhou Tong, and he addressed everyone as "Xiao Sou".

"The old general is still in good health!"

Li Congji also held this senior in high esteem, after all, the Huyan family could indeed be considered the foremost military family in the Song Dynasty!

"You little rascal are still alive and kicking, so why can't I be healthy and strong?"

Hu Yanbao laughed and cursed.

"That's right, you'll definitely live to be a hundred. But General, why did you come in person this time?"

Li Congji is currently in charge of overseeing Kyushu Island, mainly in charge of mining – coal, iron, gold, silver, whatever is available.

However, he was once a regional military governor and his management skills were still good, so Ren Yuan actually put him in charge of the entire Kyushu Island.

"I don't have much time left to live. How could I miss the opportunity to lay a foundation for the Huyan family before I die?"

Hu Yanbao thought that if he wanted to build a place for his future descendants to live in peace, he might as well do it himself!

Although Ren Yuan is a good fellow and suits his taste, it's hard to say how long this good relationship can last. Although his other grandson, Huyan Zhuo, is highly valued under Ren Yuan, he can only protect the Huyan family for two more generations at most.

So if there really is still such a large territory on Kou Island in the hands of the Japanese pirates, then Huyan Bao will not let it go!

Hu Yanbao said it, and he really did it.

After a few days of rest on Kyushu Island, Huyan Bao's 50,000-strong army charged directly onto Shikoku Island!

At that time, Shikoku Island belonged to the Nankaido region of the Japanese pirates. There were indeed four countries on the main island of Shikoku: Iko, Tosa, Awa, and Sanuki. On the smaller islands on the side, there were also three countries: Awaji, Izumi, and Kii.

Seven countries make up the South China Sea Route, which sounds impressive, but in front of 50,000 elite Pinghai naval troops, these seven countries are nothing!

Huyan Bao took the lead, and the two human-faced hammers in the old general's hands seemed to have regained their youth and vitality at this moment, killing so many that the entire Shikoku Island was covered in blood!

On Shikoku Island, there were two Japanese generals who were put forward to resist: one named Tanijushiki and the other named Tanaka Takaki. These two men repeatedly tried to lead the Japanese pirates from the seven countries to launch a counterattack against the Pinghai Navy, but they were all directly suppressed by Huyan Bao!

Gu Shoufu's head was smashed to pieces by Hu Yanbao's double hammers, and soup and water flowed all over the ground.

As for the eagle and chicken in the field... no one knows why the eagle and chicken were in the field at the same time, or what happened between them. As for this person, he was stabbed through by Huyan Qipeng with a spear!

Yes, it's a physical through-hole, where the opening goes in from the top and the opening comes out from the bottom.

Moreover, after the two men died, their bodies were hung high on long poles by the Pinghai Army and quickly dried out by the sea breeze. The scene was quite frightening, at least to the Japanese!

The other Japanese pirates on Shikoku Island, seeing that the two men they had placed their hopes on had died so tragically, immediately surrendered!

But at this point, Hu Yanbao showed a side that was even more ruthless than Ren Yuan.

Huyan Bao ordered that all male Japanese people on Shikoku Island, including minors, be buried alive!

If female Japanese wanted to live, they could marry Pinghai Navy soldiers; otherwise, they would be sent to the Pinghai Navy Women's Branch Camp.

When this ruthless and bloody method of suppression reached Kyushu, the Japanese people there were very satisfied with Liangshan.

At least Liangshan gave them a chance; even going down into the mine to dig was better than being buried alive!

Having tasted success, Pinghai Army did not stop there.

Huyan Bao pacified the entire Shikoku Island in just five days. After resting for a day, he led his men to turn around and set off again from Kyushu Island, crossing the Kanmon Strait and directly attacking the Japanese pirates' Sanyo Road and Sanyin Road.

These two countries together number about sixteen or seventeen, and in terms of area, they occupy about a quarter of Honshu Island.

This time, Hu Yanbao originally planned to pacify the Shanyang and Shanyin regions within a month. However, perhaps because he had killed too many people on Shikoku Island before, the sixteen countries were more united than ever before, putting considerable pressure on the Pinghai Navy.

In particular, the character Sugimoto Takeshiro that they introduced represented their determination to resist the Sixteen Kingdoms of Sanyo and San'in!

Yes, the Pinghai Army's offensive has indeed been temporarily halted here. After all, it is fighting on foreign soil, the terrain is unfamiliar, and the mountainous terrain makes the advance slow.

Hu Yanbao was so anxious that, in a fit of anger, he directly sought help from Liangshan!

He asked Liangshan to lend him some heavy cannons to help him quell the Japanese pirates!

Upon hearing this, a regiment of the Liangshan Divine Machine Army stationed on Kyushu Island immediately got excited. They brought all their heavy artillery overnight, crossed the Kanmon Strait, and launched a counter-attack, shelling the walls and passes of the Japanese pirates!

In an instant, boulders and thunderbolts intertwined, bringing a hellish experience to the Sixteen Kingdoms of Shanyin and Shanyang!

With the support of Liangshan's heavy artillery, Sugimoto Takeshiro's resistance was in vain. He himself was hit head-on by a Liangshan boulder projectile and turned into a pile of minced meat!

With the support of Liangshan's heavy artillery, Pinghai Army resumed its invincible state, and in just half a month, the armies of the Sixteen Kingdoms of Shanyang and Shanyin were completely annihilated!

When the news spread, Honshu Island was shaken! Dozens of countries in the Tokaido, Tosando, and Hokurikudo immediately united, to the point that several powerful shogunates of the Japanese pirates were established ahead of schedule!

They even sent people to try to negotiate, preparing to divide Honshu Island in two, giving the western part entirely to Huyan Bao.

However, how could the Pinghai Army, which had already occupied Shikoku and half of Honshu, possibly stop there?

"The Japanese pirates want to talk to us? Talk my ass!"

Huyan Bao ordered the envoy to be killed and sacrificed to the flag!

"Listen up, descendants of the Hu family! If you acknowledge yourselves as members of the Hu family, then join me in killing the traitors!"

"We said back then that we would take over Mishima and then permanently garrison this place. We've already made that boast, so let's not let others laugh at us!"

So, while Ren Yuan was preparing to declare himself king at Liangshan, General Huyan Bao was still leading his Hu family generals to quell the Japanese pirates in their territory!
