Wu Yan did not dispatch his already formed aircraft carrier fleet.

In addition to the training of fighter pilots, it is really too difficult for basic education in this era, but also because he wants to give the whole world a surprise.

Moreover, for him, he did not need to deploy any aircraft carriers to fight a Japan, and even new warships did not need to be deployed.

With Beichen and Xiaoye, Wu Yan personally led the army on the tenth day after he declared war on the Nine Kingdoms.

There was no ceremony to sacrifice to heaven, nor was there a meeting to swear an oath, after all, it was just a dealing with Japan.

Just like when he was out of the palace for fun, Wu Yan went directly to Tianjin without hiding his whereabouts, and was not worried about the leak of information.

As the emperor of the Ming Empire, how could he hide his head and tail?

Everything must be upright, which is confidence in having absolute force.

The Royal Guards of the Ming Dynasty, which had already been assembled in Tianjin, boarded the ship directly after Wu Yan arrived.

There are only five thousand people, and they even feel light and simple.

They brought nothing except necessary supplies, not even like going out for war, but like going out for an outing.

"Set off."

After Wu Yan boarded the ship, he issued an order.

Twelve troop transport ships set out toward Japan in full view of everyone in Tianjin.

This scene made the foreign ministers and other relevant personnel who followed him regret it. They secretly hated their country's fleets in East Asia, why not in Tianjin, but in the waters of Tokyo City where the shipyard of the Ming Empire is located.

If their fleet was here, wouldn’t it be possible to kill Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty directly at the sea?

The reason why they can be so confident is naturally because the ships of the Ming Empire were actually made of wooden and were already warships lagging behind this era.

In their eyes, although these warships also have artillery on them, they can only be called troop transport ships, because they are just decorations and cannot provide any effect in naval battles.

Is Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty crazy?

Just took five thousand soldiers and such a transport ship and ran directly to attack Japan?

Not to mention that foreigners were confused, even the people of the Ming Empire were confused.

Even if you trust Wu Yan, the martial arts emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and the most powerful royal guards in the Ming Dynasty, you dare not imagine what the outcome would be like if such an army encountered enemy warships at sea.

Even if you rely on the speed advantage brought by taking the lead and can avoid enemy warships at sea, what should you do if you land?

The ports of this era were all made of artillery.

Even if you choose to land at ports with small artillery numbers, you will fall into the encirclement of the enemy's main force because of the inappropriate landing location.

"It makes sense for the Lord to fight like this. Don't forget that the Lord will never win the battle and has never lost."

After all, it was the victory between Wu Yan, which made many people still believe that Wu Yan could win.

But foreigners were excited.

Some of them started to pass messages, some were trying to follow, wanting to find relevant information, and some boarded the ship directly from other routes to Japan.

"Your Majesty, the mission of Japan seeking peace has arrived in Xinjing."

Xiaoye reported to Wu Yan. Although her portal was a bit wasteful to use to deliver messages, Wu Yan has always used the best of his belongings.

After more than a year, the construction of the communication satellite was completed and sent directly to the operating orbit with Xiaoye's portal, so there was no need to do this anymore.

"Tsk, fortunately we set out quickly, otherwise it would be a bit embarrassing."

Wu Yan had never thought of asking Japan to seek peace. No matter what conditions Japan proposed, he would not agree.

In addition to the content of the fifth phase of the world mission, it is also due to some complexes.

However, in theory, Japan in this era was actually very honest. Before the Meiji Restoration, which would not begin ten years later, Japan was in the era of the Tokugawa Shogunate, and the foreign policy implemented was to lock the country.

Foreign missionaries, merchants, and civilians are not allowed to enter Japan, nor are foreign Japanese people allowed to return to China. It is also prohibited to build ships suitable for ocean-going navigation.

Except for limited countries such as the Ming Empire, Goryeo, and the Netherlands, trade with any country is not allowed, and the locations for trade are also limited to Nagasaki.

In the two years after Wu Yan's rebellion, the American Navy led the fleet to directly enter the port of Uraga, the capital of Japan's capital Edo. However, the war did not start. Instead, the letter from the President of the United States hand-written letter to the Emperor of Japan was handed over to the Tokugawa Shogunate, demanding to engage in trade with Japan, and many treaties were signed the following year.

Therefore, Japan has given some advanced weapons, no longer an era of samurai rampant, and broadened the Japanese people's horizons and laid the foundation for the Meiji Restoration in the future.

Therefore, Japan in this era is actually very weak.

"The news came from the Western Factory that the Western barbarians were passing on the message, which was to mobilize their warships to surround us."

"Haha... Then they will catch up with you too."

Wu Yan stood at the bow of the boat and laughed as he felt the sea breeze.

On the surface, the twelve troop transport ships he carried this time were wooden warships lagging behind the times.

But in fact, these wooden warships are equipped with engines that are ahead of the times. Combined with the lightness of the wooden hull, even when traveling against the wind, they can lead to very fast navigation speeds.

With a speed of 80 kilometers per hour, it only takes one day to reach the capital of Japan Edo.

Although the ironclad ships can provide strong defense in naval battles, they cannot catch up with Wu Yan.

Considering the distance between foreign warships and Tianjin area and his marching speed, when the warships arrived, he had already ended this imperial expedition and even returned to the Ming Empire.

Even if you are not lucky, it doesn't matter if there is a fleet cruising nearby and blocking it.

Beichen brought by Wu Yan can fight a fleet alone, not to mention the extraordinary force Wu Yan has.

"Fortunately, the Merlin family created some magic, otherwise, the battle would be too boring."

After capturing the Melin family, Wu Yan did not start a large-scale magic learning plan except for letting Princess Anya learn some magic theories.

Compared to martial arts, he felt that magic was too hot.

Moreover, people from the Ming Empire were not suitable for learning magic. Those spells were not spoken in English, but they were still very old English and some regional slang.

Wu Yan knew very well that if the Ming Empire wanted to have absolute dominance on this planet, it was not only necessary to have strong military power, but also to let the whole world speak the Ming Dynasty and accept the culture of the Ming Empire.

Cultural invasions, in many cases, are brought about by more than real war invasions.

For him, magic only provides some fun when completing tasks.

Otherwise, his satellites and intercontinental missiles will come out, and other countries will still use rifles to fight. How can they fight?

If he doesn’t fight with him, how can he complete the fifth stage of the world mission?

"Let's have a good rest, and we will capture Edo at this time tomorrow."

...

Japan, Edo.

Japan, who had just sent a peace mission, had no premonition that the war was coming, but they did not completely give up resistance.

"We should find a way to join forces with other countries. The Ming Empire declared war on nine countries, including us, at the same time. It will definitely make many countries share the same hatred of the enemy. This is our opportunity, and we must change it."

At this time, although the nominal ruler of Japan was still the emperor, the actual ruler was the Tokugawa Shogunate formed by the Tokugawa family.

In fact, this situation has happened for more than two hundred years. Since Tokugawa Ieyasu became the general of Japan's siege in 1603 and opened the Edo Shogunate, he has become the actual ruler of Japan.

Therefore, there was no Emperor in the meeting to deal with the Ming Empire.

"But our cooperation with the United States has caused a lot of dissatisfaction. The warriors have been clamoring to overthrow us, and the people have had great opinions on us because of those unequal treaties. If we join forces with other countries at this time..."

"They are short-sighted and the times have changed. Can warriors beat ordinary people with guns? Yes, I admit that some warriors can do it, but how many people are there like this? We must cooperate with other countries, get the support of technology, magic, and martial arts. We must send people to the Ming Empire to learn martial arts as before, and then..."

During the discussion, someone suddenly broke in and shouted in panic: "The Ming Empire has been called, they have been called."

"What?"

"How is that possible?"

"Didn't we send someone to make peace?"

The Tokugawa family became panicked in an instant.

The current head of the family asked relatively calmly: "How many people do they have? How did they come from? Where are they?"

"There are about 5,000 people who landed directly from our Edo port and are currently heading towards our city."

"Five thousand people?" The Tokugawa family calmed down again, and someone shouted: "Five thousand people want to defeat us? Are they crazy?"

"Is there still a support army?"

This problem started to panic again.

"The reinforcements were not found yet, but..." The person who brought the news was always panicked. At this time, he thought of the flag he saw, and his fear even became even more serious.

"The Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty is here. He is really the emperor in charge of the army. He brought those five thousand people."

Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty?

Hearing this title, some of the senior officials of the Tokugawa family present even frightened their legs and fell to the ground.

As Japan, which is very close to the Ming Empire, although they insist on the policy of locking the country, their understanding of the Ming Empire is deeper than that of any other country in the world.

They had known the military power and unbeaten achievements that Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty had.

But now, when I think back to the stories they once envied and even admired, I only have fear in my heart.

"this……"
