Chapter 721
Chapter 721
Thinking of the gap between himself and Wei Wu, Lan Yu felt that all the years he had fought were in vain.
In fact, it was not just Lan Yu. Zhu Chong also looked at Wei Wu in shock and could not utter a word for a long time.
However, although this matter was unbelievable, neither Lan Yu nor Zhu Chong doubted what Wei Wu said.
Because this kind of thing cannot be hidden at all, and Wei Wu is not a fool, he would not be stupid enough to brag about this kind of thing.
On the other side, Wei Wu did not seem to be as shocked as the other two, but instead spoke to himself:
"I learned from Imagawa Ryotoshi that the Japanese pirates have mastered the technology to manufacture artillery, so I wanted to inform you as soon as possible."
"But when I arrived at Kumamoto Castle, I couldn't find you. While trying to get information, I set the castle on fire."
"Then by chance I learned that you had come to Honshu Island. I figured I couldn't catch up anyway, so I didn't chase after you."
Afterwards, Wei Wu told how he used Shimazu Motohisa to instigate the three Southern Dynasties to send troops.
Hearing that General Wei was playing with all the countries on the Jiuguo Island and applauding, he deliberately manipulated the war situation and killed six or seven thousand Japanese pirates.
Lan Yu and Zhu Chong felt as if they were listening to a foreign language, and felt as if they and Wei Wu were not living in the same world.
But that was not the end. They then crossed the island to attack the military camp at night, killed three thousand elite soldiers, and captured Shimazu Ujihisa alive.
In the end, the entire Jiuguo Island was taken over. This is no longer a mystery, it is as terrifying as a myth.
So after hearing this, Lan Yu and Zhu Chong knew there was no need to question it, but they still found it hard to believe.
While the two of them were trying hard to maintain their normal cognition, Wei Wu continued to narrate.
"I heard about you from Shimazu Ujihisa. I knew you were being held up by the Japanese pirates at Hidaka Castle, so I came here to look for you."
"By the way, I heard you suffered a great loss at the hands of the Japanese pirates. What's the situation now? How many casualties have you suffered?"
When Lan Yu heard Wei Wu asking about the casualties, he came to his senses and adjusted the shocked expression on his face.
However, he did not directly answer Wei Wu's question, but asked a question hesitantly.
"Brother Wei Wu, is Jiuguo Island really under your control?"
After hearing this, Wei Wu knew what Lan Yu really wanted to ask, but he didn't care.
After all, it only takes a dozen people to capture an island. Anyone who hears this will question it.
So after Lan Yu finished asking, he immediately said:
"In fact, it is not yet under control. It can only be said that the military force under Zhang Hai's control is stronger than that of other daimyo countries."
"But if we give Zhang Hai some time, there shouldn't be any problem in taking over the island. Only then will we be able to control it."
It can only be said that Wei Wu was still modest. The power in Zhang Hai's hands was not just slightly stronger than that of other daimyo countries.
First of all, when the three countries joined forces to send troops, Satsuma and Hyuga first swept across other countries before coming here.
As a result, during the battle with Wei Wu, he was stabbed in the back by the Shimazu family, and all the remaining troops were killed by Shimazu Ujihisa.
This means that the entire Jiuguo Island was swept through in the chaos of war, and now it can be said to be extremely empty.
Although Zhang Hai only had more than 500 soldiers, other daimyo countries probably couldn't even gather 200 soldiers.
The key is that the soldiers under Zhang Hai's command are all veterans who have survived the war and seen blood, and they have stronger combat effectiveness.
In addition, Wei Wu did not take back Zhang Hai and Wei Wu's automatic rifles before leaving, and also left him a lot of ammunition.
After Wei Wu took Master Zheng over, he would give advice and suggestions, and Zhang Hai and Wei Wu would also have guns in their hands.
