Omori City, a small city with a population of only more than 10,000 people, the samurai woke up and found that the city had been besieged by 20,000 Xia troops!

The crown prince of the Great Xia Dynasty came to the weak Shikoku Island to torture people.

The 20,000 elite Natsu troops made the samurai, ashigaru, and civilians of Omori Castle panic.

There are more soldiers outside the city than there are people inside the city. How can we fight?

"volley!"

Two thousand Xue soldiers fired arrows, many of which were nailed to the wooden fence or over the city wall, killing the samurai and ashigaru hiding behind.

The attack power of the ninth-level troops is astonishing, and the damage of each arrow is extremely high.

The Lord of Omori City, Doju Qingliang, looked pale.

They are a mountain city. Counting all the young adults outside the city, there are only a few thousand people. Among them, there may only be a few hundred warriors. How do they want to fight against the Xia army outside the city?

Basically hitting an egg against a stone.

"Omori City is the home city of our Tujia people. The Tujia people have guarded this city for generations and cannot give up this city easily."

Doi Kiyoryo still harbors illusions and wants to keep his city.

The landowners of Japan's Warring States Period had a high probability of keeping their city even if they were defeated and surrendered to other daimyo.

However, the arrival of the Xia army destroyed the ruling system of the Kyushu Island daimyo, almost abolishing all the daimyo, and the Central Plains dynasty appointed its own officials.

This point was unacceptable to countless great names and grassland lords, so these great names and lords resisted Chutian's rule.

If you can keep your own territory and conquer the four Japanese islands, the resistance will probably be much smaller. After all, many city lords just want to keep their own territory and become the emperor of the country.

However, Chu Tian completely abolished all kings and lords, leaving no room for negotiation.

"Lu Lingqi, go and capture this city."

Chu Wu sent his first thug, Lu Lingqi.

Lu Lingqi, wearing black armor and holding Fang Tian's painted halberd, led a black cloud sword army to attack Dasen City!

The Qiu Xue army fired arrows calmly and locked onto the ashigaru archers on the stone wall. With the burst of fire, they could easily kill the ashigaru archers. The two arms were not at the same level at all.

"catapult!"

Some Ashigaru swing cloth bags filled with stones and use the stones to injure their enemies.

The Black Cloud Sword Army avoided the stones and quickly approached the city gate!

"That general, what is she going to do? Ichidō?!"

Doi Qingliang saw a general rushing out from Xia's army and didn't know what his intentions were.

The Black Cloud Long Sword Army filled the trenches ahead and set up ladders to give Lu Lingqi an opportunity to advance!

Lu Lingqi rushed to the front, taking the lead, climbing the city wall and climbing with flying hooks!

Dozens of Ashigaru archers shot arrows at Lu Lingqi at the same time, but these arrows were knocked away by Lu Lingqi's one-handed halberd!

"Force her back!"

Some ashigaru threw stones below, trying to force this unkind general back!

A stone hit Lu Lingqi's armor. Lu Lingqi groaned, strode into the city wall first, and Fang Tian drew a halberd to repel several spear ashigaru who came forward!

The spear ashigaru is equivalent to the second-level light infantry in the Central Plains.

It was only slightly better than the temporarily recruited Xiang Yong. The fragile bamboo armor and leather armor were like paper in front of Lu Lingqi's attack power.

Amidst the shouts of killing, a group of Black Cloud Long Sword Army braved the attack of the defenders and began to climb the city wall to kill the defenders!

The Black Cloud Long Sword Army is a high-level light infantry, so only samurai can barely fight, and even the samurai are being killed by more and more Black Cloud Long Sword Army and the sword energy of the Black Cloud Long Sword Army!

A samurai was knocked away by Lu Lingqi's punch, and the fist even dented the samurai's breastplate. The impact caused the samurai to take a few steps back and hit the wooden fence behind him, causing the wooden fence to shake violently!

"The enemy force is too strong, retreat to Honmaru!"

Dozens of the samurai who fought with Lu Lingqi were killed, and the remaining samurai retreated to the inner city with the ashigaru.

Lu Lingqi fought her way through the winding passage between Ninomaru and Honmaru, and reached the wooden gate of Honmaru!

"Quick, close the door, don't let them come in!"

Several samurai urged dozens of ashigaru to push the heavy wooden gate together, trying to seal the gate of Honmaru and wait for reinforcements from Chosouga's troops.

However, the defenders of Dasen City did not expect that Lu Lingqi and the Heiyun Long Sword Army would advance so fast and seemed to be in a hurry.

Lu Lingqi pushed the wooden door on the left, and with her own strength, she forced a dozen ashigaru to be sandwiched between the wooden door and the city wall. These ashigaru were seriously injured!

The gate could not be closed, and the Black Cloud Sword Army took advantage of the opportunity to attack the main pill!

After hundreds of samurai and ashigaru were killed, Omori Castle fell without holding on for a day.

"Our resistance is meaningless..."

Doi Qingliang finally chose to surrender with his sword.

Chu Wu only sent a small team and had already breached Honmaru. If the army pressed forward, the entire city might be razed to the ground.

"Detain them all!"

The Black Cloud Long Sword Army captured all the Doi clan and their retainers alive, and the city lord Doi Qingliang also became a prisoner.

Chu Wu led Yang Xingmi, Tachibana Chiyo and other generals into the city. These surrendered samurai and ashigaru looked at them in awe.

The army coming from the Central Plains brought unprecedented fear.

"Take away all the Doi clan's food."

Chu Wu ransacked the granary of Dasen City without ceremony.

Xia's army went to Shikoku Island with only a few days' worth of dry food, and relied entirely on siege and looting for supplies.

"Everyone's fiefdoms were confiscated, and these nicknames were sent back to Xia City. They were made to feel guilty after hearing this."

Chu Wu directly abolished the name of this small town.

These daimyo are equivalent to the landowners and gentry of Shikoku Island. They have ruled this place for more than a hundred years, or even hundreds of years, and are deeply rooted.

However, Chu Wu looked down upon these squires from Shikoku Island at all.

The victor has absolute say.

He simply robbed dozens of squire leaders from the city and extorted a sum of military pay.

His queen mother mentioned to him that even the emperor was helpless and controlled by others without money.

Therefore, after Chu Wu captured the city, the first thing he did was to plunder grain and grass, and the second thing was to extort military pay.

"Who are you, Your Excellency?"

After Doi Qingliang and other retainers had their swords confiscated, the Black Cloud Long Sword Army escorted them to Chu Wu. When Doi Qingliang saw the young Chu Wu, he couldn't help but doubt his identity.

"It doesn't matter who I am. If you want to survive, you must buy the iron coupon of atonement."

Chu Tian and Xia Liang had already come up with a plan to blackmail Japanese famous people, and Chu Wu executed it.

He pulled out the green sword. As long as these rich people from Shikoku Island dared to say no, Chu Wu would kill the chickens without mercy to scare the monkeys.

Doi Qingliang and others could not understand what Chu Wu meant. It was obvious that Chu Wu wanted to find an excuse to blackmail them severely.

"We, the Doi clan, are willing to use all our gold and silver in exchange for the lives of our people."

"Since your lord is like this, then we have no choice."

A group of local tycoons were forced to buy the "atonement coupons" peddled by Chu Wu due to the Qingzhi Sword in Chu Wu's hands.

"How much is this indulgence?"

"The indulgence of a lord with a territory of one million dan is one million taels of silver; the indulgence of a lord with a hundred thousand dan is one hundred thousand taels of silver; the indulgence of a lord of ten thousand dan is one thousand taels of silver; the indulgence of a lord of one thousand dan is one million taels of silver. One thousand taels of silver. The indulgences for each family member, depending on their status, range from as little as ten taels of silver to as many as ten thousand taels of silver. Sir Mi Zhu, I will leave the statistics to you."

Chu Wu ordered Mi Zhu to go down.

Mi Zhu was an old minister who had followed Chu Tian for a long time, and even Chu Wu respected him.

Mi Zhu has always been responsible for trade with Japan, so Mi Zhu is also responsible for extracting gold and silver from Japanese daimyo.

"Your Highness, there is no need to be polite. I will leave this matter to you."

Mi Zhu was extremely wealthy and often donated millions of taels of silver for military supplies. It was easy for him to sell "indulgences".

Confiscating land is a long-term income, while extorting daimyo can obtain military pay faster and make up for the losses of the Daxia Dynasty as soon as possible.

Chu Wu nodded: "In addition to the 'indulgence coupons', if we find some other names to legitimately loot the properties of these big names, the Ministry of Revenue should be a little tight at this time."

Mi Zhu replied: "Your Highness, please rest assured. From what I can see, we can at least loot hundreds of millions of silver taels from the four Japanese islands."

"Take a break for the time being and move on to the next city tomorrow."

Chu Wu only left two hundred soldiers to suppress the city.

If the city dares to resist, the army will turn around and raze the city to the ground.

Chu Wu's soldiers were divided into two groups. Although each group only had 20,000 soldiers and horses, Chu Wu's army came to Shikoku Island, obviously to fry fish. The city lords of the entire Shikoku Island were uneasy.

Except for Chang Zong, who still has a lot of troops, the other city lords' troops were unable to withstand the army and fell one after another.

Each captured daimyo was forced to buy "indulgence coupons", and Mi Zhu found other excuses to extort gold and silver, causing these daimyo who had ruled the place for hundreds of years to go bankrupt and completely lose their status.
