Occupying Land

Chapter 1056 – Occupying Land

When the defensive breach was opened, the iron defense line that the Japanese had set up near the port would be useless and would not be able to stop the Chinese expedition army from sweeping Hokkaido.

6th month, 5th day, when Ouyang Shuo and his group onboard The Emperor arrived at the port of Kushiro, the three armies led by Han Xin had already surrounded Hokkaido's center city Sapporo.

In a short two days, the expedition army had wiped out the entire Hokkaido and Sapporo was the only city left.

Seeing that the enemy was unstoppable, Tokugawa Ieyasu moved all the available defensive forces into Sapporo and was prepared to have a fight to the death with the expedition army at this place.

In comparison, although the south army smoothly disembarked on Kyushu, their progress on the island was not really swift. In two days, they had only taken down half an island.
