Chapter 1611 Division

Although Minamoto no Nagamasa was dead, the battle in Susa Castle was not over.

Some people in Susa Castle spontaneously joined the resistance army. Although they had no armor or sharp weapons, they still wanted to repel the enemy with their flesh and blood.

Under such circumstances, the advance of Tanaka Nobuyuki's troops was also hindered to a certain extent.

When Yun Zheng learned the news from the front, he became furious.

"Go and ask Zhao Liuliang what their artillery unit does for a living!"

Yun Zheng angrily ordered Lin Ji, and then looked at the messenger with a cold face: "Send a message to Tanaka Nobu, if you can't attack the palace before noon, all your troops will be killed!"

Seeing Yun Zheng getting angry, Lin Ji and the messenger did not dare to delay and left quickly.

Jia Yao looked at Yun Zheng silently and cursed him as a bastard.

Of course she knew that Yun Zheng was not really angry, but just wanted to put pressure on the various tribes, so as to force Tanaka Nobu's troops to launch an indiscriminate massacre of the people of Susa Castle.

I don’t know how much this bastard hates the Yu people, so he tries every means to wipe out their population.

Soon, Lin Ji arrived at the troops of Zhao Liuliang and Sanada Takeshi.

Lin Ji came to Zhao Liuliang and Sanada Takeshi and said, "His Highness ordered me to come here to ask what you do for a living! His Highness has already sent a message to Tanaka Nobuyuki that no one can enter the palace before noon. All the troops will be killed!"

"Wha...what?"

Both Zhao Liuliang and Takeshi Sanada were startled.

After coming to his senses, Zhao Liuliang hurriedly asked: "Your Highness, what's wrong? Why are you so angry?"

"You still have the nerve to ask His Highness what happened?"

Lin Ji looked at the two speechlessly: "Your Highness concentrated so many artillery to attack the city, just to deter those restless people, but in the end, the battle that should have been a quick victory was fought like this! How can Your Highness not be angry?"

Hearing Lin Ji's words, Zhao Liuliang immediately looked ashamed, "Please tell His Highness that my troops will immediately go to support Tanaka Nobu's troops!"

Lin Ji nodded slightly and left quickly.

"Order the artillery unit to immediately support Tanaka Nobu's troops!"

Zhao Liuliang was furious and gritted his teeth and ordered: "Anyone who approaches my army, regardless of gender, age or status, will be killed!"

After giving the order, Zhao Liuliang looked at Sanada Takeshi again: "Your Highness is already angry! Put away your mercy, you are the general of Daqian! There are no people from your homeland here!"

After saying this, Zhao Liuliang did not give Sanada Takeshi a chance to speak and immediately went to check the troops.

Takeshi Sanada looked around, cursed those damn people in his heart, and immediately went to count the soldiers.

Soon, the sound of artillery fire was heard one after another in the city.

Under Yun Zheng's strict order, Tanaka Nobuyuki also became ruthless and directly ordered that anyone who blocked their advance towards the palace would be killed, regardless of gender, age or status!

Even if you accidentally fall to the ground and block the army's way, you will be killed mercilessly.

Under the ruthless killing by Tanaka Nobu's troops, the people finally fled in all directions.

Two quarters before noon, Tanaka Nobuyuki led his troops into the imperial palace of Yu Kingdom.

The ruler of Yu Country was also killed on the spot, and it was announced to the outside world that it was Minamoto Nagamasa who sent his confidant Yaliang to burn himself to death along with the ruler of Yu Country when Minamoto Nagamasa was defeated.

With the tragic death of Minamoto no Nagamasa and the capture of the Yu Kingdom Palace, the war was basically declared over.

All that remains is to wipe out those scattered resistance forces.

Yun Zheng ordered his men to call Sanada Takeshi over and said, "I'll leave those surrendered soldiers to you. Don't let me down!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Takeshi Sanada quickly expressed his gratitude.

"Your Highness, General Tanaka Nobuyuki requests an audience!"

At this time, Lin Ji came to report.

"Let him in!"

Yun Zheng said this and signaled Sanada Takeshi to step back.

Takeshi Sanada bowed and left.

When he was walking out, he happened to meet Tanaka Nobuyuki who was walking in with a few surrendered soldiers.

Those men were holding human heads, broken limbs, armor and long swords.

The two looked at each other at the same time. Although they didn't say a word, they both felt murderous intent in each other's eyes.

Tanaka Nobuyuki glanced at Sanada Takeshi coldly and walked inside quickly.

"We'll see!"

Takeshi Sanada said this coldly in his heart and quickened his pace to leave.

Under the leadership of Lin Ji, Tanaka Nobuyuki brought a few people into the house.

"See Your Highness!"

Tanaka Nobuyuki knelt on one knee to salute.

"I've met the prince!"

Several surrendered soldiers knelt down holding the things in their hands.

"No gift."

Yun Zheng raised his hand slightly, his eyes fell on Tanaka Nobu again, and asked knowingly: "What do you mean?"

"Your Highness, this is the head, limbs, armor, and sword of the thief."

Tanaka Nobu replied: "The Yuan bandits resisted stubbornly and were torn into pieces by their own soldiers..."

As Tanaka Nobuyuki spoke, he recounted the process of how Minamoto Nagamasa was dismembered.

After hearing what Tanaka Nobuyuki said, Yun Zheng couldn't help but show regret on his face: "I originally wanted to take this bastard back to Daqian, execute him in Yuzhou, and use his blood to sacrifice to the people of the three counties of Yuzhou. I didn't expect to let this bastard die so easily..."

Upon hearing Yun Zheng's words, the surrendered soldiers were so frightened that they buried their heads, fearing that Yun Zheng would blame them for killing Yuan Changzheng.

"okay!"

Yun Zheng did not blame them. "Leave behind the source thief's head, armor and weapons, and throw away the rest! You have done a great service by killing the source thief. When I reward you for your merits, you will definitely be included!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Several people hurriedly expressed their gratitude.

"Take them down first."

Yun Zheng gave an instruction to Lin Ji and motioned for Tanaka Nobu to sit down.

"Although your unit's performance in today's battle was not satisfactory, the overall performance was pretty good."

Yun Zheng stared at Tanaka Nobu, "Since you took command of the army, you have made many great contributions. The capture of Susano Castle was your first achievement! Logically, I should reward you handsomely, but I have already promised Sanada Takeshi to make him the Feather King. Do you have any objection?"

"I would never dare to have any opinions!"

Tanaka Nobuyuki answered respectfully, but he was resentful in his heart.

Didn’t Takeshi Sanada lead his fleet to avoid the storm at sea?

He can do it too!

In terms of his contribution on the battlefield, his contribution is no less than that of Takeshi Sanada.

It can even be said that his contribution is greater than that of Takeshi Sanada.

Why is Takeshi Sanada the King of Feathers?

"It's fine if you don't have any objection."

Yun Zheng nodded slightly, "I have promised Zhen Tianwu to recruit 30,000 soldiers and will soon start attacking the lords in the south. What do you think or suggest about this battle?"

Any thoughts and suggestions?

Tanaka Nobuyuki frowned secretly.

What opinions and suggestions could he have?

You can't...

Ok?

As he was thinking, Tanaka Nobuyuki suddenly had an idea and said quickly, "General Sanada Takeshi's newly recruited soldiers still need time to prepare, why not let me lead the troops to attack the south?"

"This won't work!"

Yun Zheng refused directly, "Your army has been in battles one after another, so you need to rest! Besides, I also need to see how well Sanada Takeshi can lead the army in battle!"

Ok?

Your Highness, do you want to see how well Sanada Takeshi can lead an army in battle?

In other words, although His Highness agreed to confer the title of Feather King on Takeshi Sanada, he has not yet made up his mind?

If Takeshi Sanada's ability to lead troops in battle is not as good as mine, do I have a chance?

Thinking of this, Tanaka Nobuyuki became more active and immediately said, "Why not let me follow General Sanada Takeshi and lead the troops to attack the lords in the south, so that we can pacify the south as soon as possible!"

"This……"

Yun Zheng seemed to be ready to move, and after thinking for a moment, he ordered someone to call Sanada Takeshi over...
