Global Warring States: Get the Tang Taizong template at the beginning

Chapter 177 Toyotomi Hideyoshi is coming!
"Ding! The commander of the Fourth Army, Shimazu Yoshihiro, was killed in battle. The Fourth Army was defeated. The morale of all soldiers in the Fourth Army is -50."

"Ding, the morale of the defenders of Daoshan City is -20, and the morale of other legions is -15."

"Ding, in the next ten days, the morale of the Japanese camp will be in a low state, and the morale recovery rate will be -90%."

Shimazu Yoshihiro died in battle, and all the Japanese players participating in the national war were in an uproar.

The first-rate general Shimazu Yoshihiro, who was known as "Ghost Shimazu, Ghost Ishimanko, and the Demon of Satsuma", was killed in battle!

During the Warring States Period in Japan, apart from the most famous people such as Oda Nobunaga, Takeda Shingen, Uesugi Kenshin, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu, the next most famous people were military generals such as Shimazu Yoshihiro and Tachibana Muneshige, who all died in battle one after another.

Tachibana Muneshige was just a small army, while Shimazu Yoshihiro and Fukushima Masanori were both legion commanders. Their deaths in battle had a great impact on the morale of the Japanese army.

The morale of the defenders of Shimayama Castle was directly reduced by 20 points, and the morale of other Japanese troops supporting Shimayama Castle was also reduced by 15 points.

At this time, Daoshan Castle was still under siege by Li Rusong, commander of the Ming army. Although there was no risk of it falling for the time being, the casualties of the defenders of Daoshan Castle were real. Reinforcements were slow to arrive, and Daoshan Castle was unable to replenish its troops, so it was possible that it would be captured by the Ming army.

The morale of the defenders of Shimayama Castle was low. They were able to rally together only after being encouraged by their general Kato Kiyomasa, but their momentum was no longer the same as before.

Letters from Kato Kiyomasa asking for help came one after another.

The Japanese general Ukita Hideie ordered Konishi Yukinaga, Kuroda Nagamasa, Kobayakawa Takakage, Mori Terumoto, Hashiba Hidekatsu and other corps commanders to march towards Shimayama Castle at all costs.

However, the Ming army was divided into several groups to block the attack. Wu Weizhong's Qi Family Army, Li Rumei's Liaodong Cavalry, and many Eastern Han players held back the various Japanese troops. The various Japanese troops were afraid of repeating the same mistakes and dared not advance rashly. They could only wander around Ulsan and could not reach Dosan Castle.

Now, the Japanese players can no longer sit still.

Kato Kiyomasa and a group of elite players swore to defend Shimayama Castle to the death, resulting in heavy casualties among the Ming army and tying down a large number of Ming troops. Only then was the Japanese army able to gain the opportunity to achieve internal and external cooperation and achieve success in the center.

Once Shimayama Castle could not hold out for reinforcements and was captured by the Ming army, the Japanese army would be the next to fall into the passive position.

Japan's top player Katsumoto Takahashi immediately convened many elite Japanese players to hold a military meeting to discuss how to rescue Shimayama Castle.

Many elite Japanese players talked at once and proposed no less than ten strategies.

However, the top Japanese lord players such as Takahashi Katsumoto, Hojo Munenobu, and Soga Jinmu looked serious and were not satisfied with these strategies.

The death of Shimazu Yoshihiro and the defeat of the brave and warlike Satsuma Army dealt a heavy blow to the morale of the Japanese army, causing them to suddenly lose the momentum they had previously used to form a siege.

"Are we about to lose this national war?"

Soga no Jinmu is the second-ranked lord player on the Japanese Military Merit List. His profession is "Onmyoji", and he has a special army of "Onmyoji" under his command. He sees that Shimayama Castle is in crisis one after another. Without strong means, the Japanese camp's chances of winning this national war will be less than 10%.

After the fall of Ulsan, the Japanese army only had Busanport left to defend.

"The situation is over."

Takahashi Katsumoto and Hojo Munenobu were able to rank in the top three of the Japanese military merit list, and they could also see the situation clearly. The most powerful generals, Tachibana Muneshige, Shimazu Yoshihiro, Sasaki Kojiro and others were killed in battle, the two major legions of Fukushima Masanori and Shimazu Yoshihiro were destroyed, generals such as Tachibana Muneshige and Kobayakawa Hidekane whose status was second only to the legion commander were killed, and the legions of Konishi Yukinaga, Kobayakawa Takakage and others suffered heavy losses in Pyongyang City and Pyeongyang Gwan, and the Japanese army was seriously damaged.

The elite troops brought by Japanese players, such as Onmyoji, samurai, ninja, red-armored army, monk soldiers, and iron cannon teams, were also killed or wounded in fierce battles such as the Battle of Pyongyang, the Battle of Pyeongyang, the Battle of Haengju Castle, the Battle of Yongsan, and the Battle of Ulsan, and all their trump cards were revealed.

How to turn the tables without a trump card?

"Ding, Daoshan City is in danger. The system has calculated that your faction is in a disadvantageous situation and has a 90% chance of failure. Do you want to activate the small country compensation mechanism to turn the tide?"

"If your faction wins, you will receive normal national war rewards."

"If the Eastern Han camp wins, it will achieve a 'historical victory' and the rewards will be increased." "Please vote within one hour."

“When more than half of the players vote in favor, the small country compensation mechanism will be activated.”

Japanese players such as Takahashi Katsumoto, Hojo Munenobu, and Soga Jinmu were silent. They guessed from each other's shocked eyes that the other party had also received the same system prompt.

Unexpectedly, they were forced into a desperate situation by the Ming army and the Han army, and even the system believed that their chances of winning were slim.

The small country compensation mechanism is their last hope for a comeback.

However, if the small country compensation mechanism is activated and they are ultimately defeated, then the rewards for all Eastern Han players participating in the national war will increase, which is equivalent to strengthening the national strength of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

How to choose?

"Enable compensation mechanism."

Katsumoto Takahashi was the first to speak.

The madness in his bones and his unwillingness to accept the impending defeat in the national war made him decide to take a gamble!
"Seconded."

"Agree."

Hojo Munenobu and Soga Jinmu followed suit, and other Japanese players also voted in favor.

An hour later, more than 90% of the Japanese players voted in favor!

"Ding, the Japanese camp is about to activate the small country compensation mechanism."

"Ding, the regent Toyotomi Hideyoshi led the reserve troops assembled in Hizen Kunigaoya to Busanura. Tokugawa Ieyasu, Maeda Toshiie, Uesugi Kagekatsu, Gamo Ujisato, Date Masamune and other daimyo joined the battle."

Toyotomi Hideyoshi is coming?
They also brought with them daimyo such as Tokugawa Ieyasu, Maeda Toshiie, Uesugi Kagekatsu, Gamo Ujisato, and Date Masamune!

"Hahaha, Shimayama Castle is saved!"

"We will definitely win this battle!"

"Long live!"

In the originally lifeless military council venue, the Japanese players suddenly became excited!

Historically, there were indeed 100,000 Japanese troops assembled in Nagoya as a reserve force, but due to limited supplies, these reserves were never sent to the battlefield.

The compensation mechanism for small countries during the Imjin War, no one expected that Toyotomi Hideyoshi would personally lead this reserve force to join the war!

If the 100,000 Japanese troops were to increase their strength a hundredfold in a national war, that would mean tens of millions of elite troops!

Moreover, it was the regent Toyotomi Hideyoshi who served as the commander-in-chief himself, and famous Japanese generals such as Tokugawa Ieyasu, Maeda Toshiie, Uesugi Kagekatsu, Gamo Ujisato, and Date Masamune served as the main generals!
The Japanese players seemed to be full of energy, while the Eastern Han players who were still besieging Daoshan Castle and blocking reinforcements received system prompts and were in a heavy mood.

They all ignored the Japanese army that served as a reserve in Nagoya.

No one could have imagined that Toyotomi Hideyoshi would personally lead the daimyo into battle.

It is not easy to achieve a historic victory in a national war. One has to defeat Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu, which makes the difficulty increase dramatically.
