Chapter 239 Talk and laugh at Japan (2)

"The movements of the countries in the Zizhu area of ​​Japan have long been known by our army's spies. According to the original plan, our army is preparing to defend key places such as Luoshancheng and allow the vanguard of the Japanese coalition to harass the former area of ​​Hanyang County, and then wait for its main force to cross the sea to fight and concentrate its superior army and naval forces, attack halfway through, and completely defeat the Japanese coalition."

Han Xiu asked an adjutant to spread a huge map of the situation in the Tokyo Island hanging on the wall, pointing at the map with a wooden pole while explaining.

"The then Governor Lu Zhenlu, the governor of Pyongyang, led the war. He Pingzhou Admiral Yao Jinyao arranged more than 15,000 wing troops and 40,000 Pingzhou Prefecture troops in Jinshan, Luoshan and Hanshan (now Gwangju, South Korea). He was waiting for the Japanese coalition forces to land south of Hanyang County."

"Since our army's strategy was to lead the enemy deeper, we ignored the small vanguard troops of the Japanese army. So the Japanese army's vanguard, Wu Tian Bei, led 5,000 soldiers under the leadership of the former Baekje noble Muluo Jinzi, and landed in Gu Xijin (now Sanqianpu) through Tsuma Island and entered the former Hanyang County predecessor, but all of this was under the surveillance of our army. At this time, a force in the former region responded, disrupting our army's deployment."

"This tribe that claims to be Bo Dan lives in the Southern Garo region of the predecessor, and originally claimed to be a remnant of the Central Plains who fled to Hanyang County in the Former Qin and Han Dynasties to avoid war, so he was treated well by our Northern Palace. Unexpectedly, the tribe leader, had long colluded with Su Ni Takeui. When he saw the Japanese coalition vanguard arrive, he immediately sent his son Rongtong to lead three thousand tribes to respond and join forces with the Japanese coalition vanguard."

"The former noble royal families of the former nobles of Biziban, Nangaro, Beiguo, Anlu, Doro, Zhuochun, Grand Garo and other places raised troops to respond. These riots and the Japanese coalition vanguard finally joined forces with the Zhuochun Kingdom, with nearly 20,000 troops and quickly spread throughout the Renna area. General Lu Zhen immediately made a decision and sent 15,000 troops to defeat the enemy in Tuhan Mountain. He also unexpectedly ambushed the fleeing enemy in Fuxian Dongyuan, and finally annihilated his entire army, beheading more than 16,000, desert fields, deer, I, Muluo Jinzi, and Rongtong were all beheaded. When the former Baekje king Yu Ju and Silla king Naibu king heard that the war was not going well, they immediately sent Guishou to kneel with Shashanu, Shabai, Galu and other former Baekje generals led 5,000 troops to cross the sea to reinforce, and recruited more than 20,000 bear attacks and falcons."

"At that time, General Zhuge was ordered to lead more than 10,000 people to block the former Baekje Silla coalition on Pichia Mountain. He first pretended to be stalemate with Gui's head, pulled its front line away, and then sent a thousand Bohai cavalry to attack its flanks. Xiongzhi, Falcon and other Japanese savages had never seen the attack of the large cavalry. In panic, we were quickly defeated by our army and disrupted the former Baekje Silla coalition. Our army covered the situation and defeated the coalition, beheading more than 15,000. Gui's head had no choice but to lead thousands of remaining troops on board at Huitoujin, preparing to retreat to Tsuma Island."

"But General Lu Zhen has changed his strategy and ordered the first and second fleets in the offshore hiding in Jinshan and the East China Sea to attack immediately, carrying three thousand soldiers to capture Tsushima Island and Iki Island, and killed more than 2,000 people below the Iki Kingdom Lord Magenzi. The head of Gui was unable to escape to Tsushima Island, so he had to turn the ship south and try to escape to Tanluo Island (now Jeju Island). However, he was surrounded by the third and fourth fleets of our offshore 1,000 troops and the defenders on the three thousand islands. After a fierce battle, Shashanu knelt down, more than 4,000 people below the Iki Kingdom were beheaded, and more than 1,000 remaining soldiers surrendered."

"In June of the third year of Xingning, the leader brought the troops to Kumamoto Zizuki area and King Yuju. The Xiongqian of the Naibu King was reunited. Takeuchi Suki and Wu Zhenxiong was panicked after knowing that Tsushima and Iki Island fell into the hands of our army. So he immediately raised thousands of ships of all sizes and big and small, preparing to regain the Tsushima and Iki Island that were crucial to them. In order to strengthen their strength, they recruited 20,000 savages from the various tribes of Hatsuki, and from the Hokki and Toyoko countries, and from the Hokki Kingdom, there were more than 10,000 soldiers in their headquarters. In addition, they had more than 60,000 troops."

"Good guy, it seems that the King of Japanese is ready to take a gamble." Zeng Min said excitedly. Although he knew that the final victory belonged to the Northern Palace, the gathering of troops was still exciting for Zeng Min, who had never experienced military affairs.

"Yes, the second son," Han Xiu smiled, took Zeng Min's topic and pointed to the map and said, "Look at this pair of horses, Iki Island is located between Hanyang County and Kumamoto Island, and the Japanese Islands. Whether it is north or south, it will take only half a day to sail. The Japanese army controls Tsubasa, and Iki Island can raid our Hanyang County day and night. Our army occupied Tsubasa and Iki Island, and then Kumamoto Island, and Tosa Hokkaido are in a tiger-watching posture, so the Japanese leader is so nervous."

"The Japanese army took Wu Zhenxiong as the general of the former army, led 20,000 troops, and rushed towards Iki Island in a fierce manner. In order to disperse the Japanese army's forces, our army took the initiative to retreat to Tsushima Island and transported away thousands of people on the island along with all the food and supplies, leaving only an empty island for Wu Zhenxiong."

"Wu Zhenxiong saw that our army avoided its edge and thought that our army was afraid of his military power, so he sent people to the Central Army General Takeuchi Suki who was preparing to set out in Zizhu area and the remaining rear general Ishe who was not allowed to report the victory, urged the Central Army to carry food and grass to follow up as soon as possible, while leading more than 200 larger warships to follow our army, trying to destroy our naval forces."

"At that time, my subordinates were the commander of the First Detachment of the Sea, and were ordered to lure the Japanese army forward. Wu Zhenxiong saw that our detachment had less than 60 warships, and he was extremely arrogant and he kept biting us. We led the Wu Zhenxiong team through Iki Island until the sea surface of Xiaoshi Island 60 miles south of Tsushima Island. At this time, the Second Fleet of the Sea in the Sea from east of Xiaoshima Island, the Fourth Fleet of the Sea in the Sea, and the Fifth Detachment surrounded Wu Zhenxiong team in a semicircle from west of Xiaoshima Island."

"Our army has used 300 offshore warships to fight over more than 200 Japanese ships of various colors. Our army first broke the Japanese army's scattered long formation in a triangular formation and divided them into two sections. The second fleet surrounded the Japanese army's rear fleet with its advantageous number, and eliminated the Japanese army's more than 100 ships by means of counter-board fighting. Although the Japanese soldiers were short, they were very fierce, like a group of wolves. Despite this, the Japanese army was not as well equipped as our army, and most of them were not familiar with the navy. They only rely on their temporary courage and were completely out of order. How could they be the opponent of our navy who had been practicing on the sea for several years? Once on the side, our warship sailors used short crossbows (the crossbows for the navy were mainly twisted with copper wire, and the crossbow arms were also specially processed to prevent water) to shoot the Japanese sailors. Once on the side, our warship sailors used short crossbows (the crossbows for the navy, mainly twisted with copper wire, and the crossbow arms were also specially processed to ensure waterproofing)

Pour a large piece and shake the roving rod that has already stretched over the enemy ship (the modified slap rod in Beifu can not only smash the enemy ship with a bulky iron plate, but once shaken, the spiral slap drives the sharp iron teeth, and can clean the surface of the enemy ship like a lawn mower). The slap plate with sharp teeth swirled over the Japanese ships and immediately scraped a piece of blood rain limbs. After the slap rod stopped, the sailors wearing leather armor and anti-slip tiger claw shoes held sailor swords (made by Zeng Hua's Malays knife on the Internet in another world. The blade was slightly straight and not long, and it was like a sword. The half-flow line in front of the blade narrowed and sharp, with one-sided blades, which can be stabbed or chopped) rushed to the enemy ship from the slap, launched hand-to-hand combat, and killed the remaining Japanese troops one by one."

"Because the first detachment of the first near-shore fleet of the first fleet was restrained in front and the third detachment was blocking in the back, it took Wu Zhenxiong half an hour to turn the front section of the fleet that rushed to the front due to the relatively fast speed. At this time, our second fleet had already wiped out most of the Japanese army's rear section of the fleet by several sieges, and had already begun to surround the Japanese army's front section of the fleet. Another fierce battle, the first and second fleets worked together, and after Shen Shi, they wiped out more than 200 Japanese ships, and all the more than 10,000 Japanese naval troops below Wu Zhenxiong were buried in the belly of the fish."

"All of them were buried in the belly of the fish?" Zeng Min asked in surprise.

"Yes, the second young master, because our army was eager to go south to Iki Island to siege the main force of the Japanese army, so we had no time to accommodate prisoners of war, so we sent more than 20 third-class warships to patrol the sea, stabbed all the Eastern Japanese navy soldiers who fell into the water with sailors and crossbows and spears to kill them, and threw oil bombs to burn all the Eastern Japanese ships. To be honest, the Eastern Japanese navy's ships were really bad, and we could only burn them as firewood for our North Palace Navy."

After hearing Han Xiu's words, Zeng Min was speechless. He looked at his father and Wang Meng again. He looked at his father and Wang Meng, and his expression was still the same. He was not worried about the more than 10,000 Eastern Japanese naval troops who had settled to the bottom of the sea. Even Yin Shen's expression changed slightly and soon came to his senses. So he stopped saying anything, but just signaled Han Xiu to continue talking.

"After we defeated the Wuzhen-Himing Navy, we immediately went south to Iki Island. When we arrived there before dusk, we found that nearly a thousand Eastern Japanese ships were densely anchored in the anchorage port on the Harbian Beach of Iki Island, and were preparing to disembark 30,000 Eastern Japanese coalition forces and join more than 10,000 former troops on the island. Seeing this, our army immediately lined up to fire tanning bombs with crossbows."

"I will never forget that scene. The sun was almost sinking under the sea to the west, and the turbulent oil bombs we fired were blazing orange-red flames, dragging the long black smoke tracks, cutting through the sky, and flying straight to the East Japanese ships. Because the East Japanese ships were too densely arranged, our turbulent oil bombs were two or three out of ten. After more than a dozen rounds of crossbows, thousands of turbulent oil bombs ignited more than half of the East Japanese coalition's ships, and the unshot turbulent oil bombs continued to burn on the sea, and together with the East Japanese ships burning everywhere, the night sky was red."

Zeng Min and Yin Shen both saw the sulphur bombs fired by the Beifu Navy's naval crossbows, which are similar to those fired by the Army's stone cannon. However, the naval sulphur bombs are much smaller and are much longer and thinner. The clay shell is also thinner. Not to mention that it will explode when hit the board or sail, it will crack even if it is slightly hot and touches the water and suddenly becomes cold. Once it cracks, the combustion substances composed of asphalt, rosin, charcoal, saltpeter, etc. inside will suddenly disperse, and a large fire will rise on the ship or on the sea surface, and water will not be extinguished.

The Eastern Japanese coalition had never encountered such tactics and situations, and they could not help but have a turmoil. Moreover, their real navy had long been taken to Tsushima Island by Wu Zhenxiong and was completely wiped out. Now most of the remaining ones are infantry and have no experience in water wars. They seemed even more panicked in the raging fires. Some ships that caught fire even hit their companionship ships that did not catch fire while escaping, and the two ships "died together."

Zeng Min and Yin Shen looked at Han Xiu's red face because of excitement, and the scene was imagined. The burning flames everywhere reflected half of the sky red. Countless Eastern Japanese soldiers howled in despair in the flames and darkness. Nearly a thousand Eastern Japanese ships were like floating and scorching graves, while the burning sea was a huge cemetery, which finally swallowed everything in the dark.

Han Xiu slapped his mouth and recalled it carefully before continuing: "Tao Naomi Takeuchi took advantage of the night and took more than 20 ships, and more than a thousand remaining troops fled back to the Zizhu area of ​​Kumamoto Island. More than 5,000 Eastern Japanese Central Army abandoned by Takeuchi, more than 5,000 people landed on Iki Island in time, and joined the 10,000 former troops left by Wu Zhenxiong, and trapped the isolated island. The remaining more than 25,000 people disappeared into the sea with more than 1,000 Eastern Japanese ships. When we cleaned the battlefield at dawn, we found that less than 3,000 people were still struggling on the sea, and in addition, there were thousands of wooden fragments floating."

"The 15,000 Eastern Japanese coalition forces were thrown on Iki Island, including more than 10,000 Kumamoto Island people and more than 5,000 Ki-I people. They had no food and supplies, and all the waters around Iki Island were already in the hands of our North Prefecture Navy. The Eastern Japanese coalition forces, which were alone and without help, had internal conflicts first, and soon more than half of them were killed or injured, and the rest surrendered fourteen days after being surrounded."

"Sui Ni Takeuchi fled back to Zizhu area. The entire East Japanese coalition was left with more than 10,000 Yamato soldiers named by Yishebe, and they were all scared. So they killed more than 10,000 Baekje, Silla royal family, nobles, and sent envoys to take the heads of King Yuju and others to surrender to our army. Most of the rest retreated to Yamato and Kii in batches, but the news of their great defeat spread throughout the entire Tokyo Island. Many hostile forces dissatisfied with the Yamato-Kiyi Alliance jumped out and attacked Xi Changzu and Sui Nishi."

"The first ones that jumped out were the King of Ninja Bear, Kasaka King, Namba Yoshiki's 50-Sagami Sumiya, Inugura Kunkura, and Hunyui, they were the kings and nobles of the Kanba Country (now the Boruma region), and were secretly instructed and supported by Yoshibe Country. In July of the third year of Xingning, when Xi Changsuki's defeated generals of Takeuchi Sumiya slowly marched eastward in the Tosashi North Waterway, Ninja Bear and Kasaka King gathered about 20,000 troops at Akashi (now the Akishi) of Katsuma Country, and sent 5,000 people to Akashi Island by boat, blocking the passage of Akashi (now the Akishi Strait) to prevent the defeated troops from returning to the country."

"When I knew this news, Xi Changzuki decided immediately, and asked Takeuchi Suki to take Isha with me and detour, and detour from Kii Minmen south of the Akashi Strait to enter Kii Country. Xi Changzuki led his main fleet to Namba Suki (today's Osaka area). Due to the small number of people, Takeuchi Suki easily signed Kii Country, but due to the great loss of national strength, most of the soldiers were left on the surface of Tsuma Iki, so he was unable to send troops to fight against King Ninha Bear and King Kasaka, so he had to snail the snail.

Ju Zai's plan in secret. However, Xi Changzu Hime Ming encountered great difficulties along the way. Because the army of the Ninja Bear King had blocked the waterways of Namba Suki, and the weather changed, the sea storms became larger. Xi Changzu Hime Ming could not land in Namba Suki, so he planned to land in Namba Suki, but Yu Gu Mizu Mug was blocked by Kasaka King and could not pass. Xi Changzu Hime Ming could only stay in the waters of the Wu Gu Mizu Mug, waiting for the opportunity."

"The battle situation of the infighting in the East Japanese was like this. The main army of Shi Changzuki, Suguo and Changguo areas had no food and grass, so they had to plunder food in Sanqi, Suguo and Changguo areas. However, as the countries of Tosashima strengthened their vigilance, the Yamato army's food and grass were difficult to keep up, and they would inevitably be trapped on the sea after a long time. Seeing that the overall situation was settled, Shinzuki and Kasaka King were very proud, so they relaxed their vigilance. Unexpectedly, in the spring of the first year of Taihe, a noble family named Shinji, who lived in the prefecture of Hanoi, led three thousand people in Tuehone (Gugu County, Hyogo Prefecture) to take the opportunity to launch a raid. Kasaka King died in battle, and Shinzuki retreated to Shinji, and then retreated from Suko to the Tuehday (now Uji, Kyoto), thus lifting the siege of Wugumi Gate. Shinzuki led the remnants of the army and finally landed on the Hanoi country."

"In the fourth year of Taihe, General Li Tianzheng was transferred to the governor of the Right Guards, responsible for the defense of Luoyang and Sizhou. General Zhuge Cheng took over as the governor of Pyongyang, responsible for the strategy of the island of Japan. However, since that year, due to the years of military use in Japan, the Navy Department had to focus on the pressure of the disciples to expand the waters south of Jiaozhou, looking for spice gold and more population markets. The Second Fleet offshore was transferred to the south and joined the Third Fleet to directly

Going to Guangzhou, the First Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of the Fleet of

Zeng Hua nodded and understood Han Xiu's meaning. At present, most of the gold and silver mines on the Tokyo Island have not been discovered. Except for Yamato, Hanoi, Kii, Jibei and other countries, the rest are mostly "savage tribes". They are too backward and have no purchasing power at all. And those slightly civilized countries are targets of the Northern Prefecture. For example, Yamato and Kii have been seeking peace and surrendered eleven times, but they have not succeeded once.

"How is the situation in Yamato and Kii?" Zeng Hua asked.

"Return to the general, Ji Changzuki Ji Ming and Takeuchi Sukii Suki while asking for peace and surrendering to us one after another, they worked hard to regain their vitality, and began to start a war on the north side of Jibei, trying to make up for some losses from Jibei. The Jibei country, who suffered some losses, also frequently sent envoys to our army, willing to surrender." Han Xiu replied.

"Oh," Zeng Hua couldn't help but ponder. He knew the virtues of the people on the East Island too well. When you were strong, he was as obedient as his grandson. Once you were weak, he would be like a wild wolf. In the past few years, he had been busy with the western expedition and did not pay too much attention to the east. He just asked the navy to continue to eat and invade Japan. Unexpectedly, due to financial pressure, the Ministry of Public Security had forced the Navy to change its strategic direction, which was not possible.

"Let me do this, I ask the Privy Council and the three provinces to continue to increase the offensive efforts against Japan Island. Hire Kumamoto and Tosashima to take our sea boats, use our sea control power to launch an invasion on the coastal areas of the countries of Japan Island to attenuate their strength, and then land, build a city, go deep into the inland, and finally destroy their country. We can first let the three powerful countries of Yoshibe, Yamato and Kii, accept their requests for surrender, and then let them continue to fight. We can even support the weak and make them fight more intensely. And we attack the surroundings of the Three Kingdoms, such as Ohara, Shimazu, Mino and other countries, and finally concentrate firepower against Yoshibe, Yamato and Kii." Zeng Hua's words made Han Xiu and Zhuge Cheng overjoyed.

"Changmu, Bingye, do you think about it. How many years will it take to be like this? How many troops will need to be mobilized?" Zeng Hua asked at the end.

Han Xiu and Zhuge Cheng discussed it together, discussed it with the adjutants behind him, and finally replied: "If we want to destroy the Three Kingdoms, we expect it to take three years. The navy needs to mobilize the first, second fleet and second fleet in the offshore seas, and the army needs to mobilize 20,000 wing troops and 60,000 palace soldiers."

Zeng Hua also bowed his head and finally decided to say, "Okay, just like that, the navy will increase the second near-shore fleet, and the wing army and the military will mobilize the troops of You, Ji and Qing to use troops to Japan on all sides. Within three years, you must take down the Tokyo Island, and it will be a clean Tokyo Island."

Zeng Hua's last words made Han Xiu and Zhuge Cheng stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted, immediately saluted and replied solemnly: "I must do my best to do my best to not complete the task and engage in military law."

"Okay, is this military expenditure?" Zeng Hua said after careful consideration. "I will pay, and I will pay 6 million silver dollars. Just think I have bought the island of Japan."

Everyone was stunned, but they soon understood that it seemed that Zeng Hua was preparing to pay for the Beifu Army and Navy to occupy the Tokyo Island. If this battle was made, the ownership of the island would be different from that of Kumamoto Island, which was officially included in the Beifu territory, Tosa Island. It will be considered Zeng Hua's private territory in the future. If Zeng Hua becomes emperor in the future, it will be a territory directly under the royal family. However, everyone knows that this general has money. The shares of the big trading companies and the factory are worth tens of millions of silver dollars. This amount of money will be earned back in a few years.

"General, why did you buy this island in Japan?" Wang Meng asked in surprise, because Zeng Hua had never done such a thing before.

Of course, Zeng Hua couldn't say that he was so angry when he heard the monkeys in the East Japan. He wanted to sink them all to the bottom of the sea immediately, so he joked: "Mr. Jingluo, don't worry, I bought the island of Japan for pigs, there are many good things here."

Speaking of this, Zeng Hua drooled when he thought of the gold and silver mines. He squinted his eyes and said to Wang Meng and others: "Mr. Jingluo, Mr. Su Chang, should you buy a share? Although you may not see any profit now, I guarantee that you can leave a treasure pot for your descendants."

Hearing this, not only Wang Meng and Zuo Pu, who knew Zeng Hua's vision, were moved, but even Han Xiu and Zhuge Cheng were moved, thinking about how much money they had at home and could invest in the island of Japan with the general.
Chapter completed!
