Early the next morning, the hurricane was still in full swing. And the Yuan fleet on Eagle Island and Hirado Island was already in shambles, full of broken ship boards, canvases, and masts that were tossed in the wind and waves.

The huge fleet that originally stretched for more than ten miles has been wiped out, and only two or three hundred ships remain, which have not yet fallen apart and sunk. Of the ships that survived, not one in ten. Moreover, half of them are still Zhang Xi's warships.

As high as hundreds of thousands of Yuan troops, more than 60,000 people drowned! Tens of thousands of horses, more than 200,000 stone of grain, and a large amount of ordnance sank into the sea.

The surviving Yuan army, less than 100,000 people, they crawled to Eagle Island and Hirado Island wet, some pointed to the sky and scolded God, some looked blank, and some let out a loud cry of sorrow.

Miserable...... It's over.

The roar of the wind and waves drowned out the mournful cries and roars of the Yuan army. In the face of the great power of heaven and earth, the human army seems so small and fragile.

Xin Du, Jin Fangqing, Fan Wenhu and others had already moved to Hirado Island at this time, and everyone was sad to see the hurricane and the miserable situation of the coalition forces.

Even Xin Du, this hard-hearted stubborn man, couldn't help shedding tears. This hurricane drowned half of the Mongolian warriors and Semu warriors.

He didn't feel sorry for the Koreans and Han Chinese, but he couldn't help but feel sorry for the Mongolian soldiers.

There were also tens of thousands of war horses, but they didn't have a chance to gallop on the land of Japan, and most of them were swallowed by the sea.

How did he account to the Great Khan? The man of the Golden Family, who has fought such a battle?

"Immortal Heaven! Immortality! Why don't you protect the children of the blue wolf? Xin Du looked up to the sky and roared.

Kim Fangqing, the commander of the Goryeo Army, also became even older overnight, and his face was full of sorrow.

The Goryeo men had 50,000 elite soldiers on the expedition this time, and now it is estimated that there are only more than 10,000 left. He Kim Fangqing is destined to become a sinner in Goryeo.

Fortunately, he let Li Luo go before, allowing Li Luo to preserve some of the vitality of the Goryeo sailors.

Fan Wenhu and other generals of the Jiangnan Army were also embarrassed one by one.

The Jiangnan Army set out with 120,000 men, and now it is estimated to be ...... Sixty or seventy thousand people have reached the sky.

Only Zhang Xi, who suffered the least loss, still maintained his previous composure, he found Xin Du and Fan Wenhu and others, and suggested that they should immediately brave the hurricane to repair the fortifications on Hirado Island and Eagle Island, and make every effort to defend it, so as to have the possibility of turning the situation around.

"Marshal, once the Japanese army learns that our army is in trouble, they will definitely attack in a big way. For today's plan, only by defending with all our strength can there be a glimmer of life. Zhang Xi said.

Xin Du's face was terrifying, and he said absentmindedly: "Then I'll leave it to you." ”

Fan Wenhu also said in a reluctant voice: "Just ask Zhang Gong." ”

Zhang Xi was very helpless, so he had to organize people to repair the fortifications on the island as much as possible.

He also knew in his heart that Xin Du, Fan Wenhu and the others had made up their minds to retreat, and it was estimated that they would soon flee back to China. If so, what can he change by himself? There is only one way to escape back to China.

Zhang Xi guessed correctly, Xin Du, Fan Wenhu, Jin Fangqing and other generals have indeed decided to return to China.

Xindu's confidence mainly comes from 50,000 war horses and Mongolian warriors. But today, there are only 10,000 horses left. There are only seven or eight thousand Mongolian warriors left, and almost all the ordnance and materials have sunk into the sea, many people have no weapons, and only a few hundred ships remain, how to fight?

Either starve to death, or die of thirst. On this island, there is not much water, and there is not enough to drink.

For now, the only way to do this is to return to China as soon as possible and make a comeback.

Not only do you have to go back to China, but you also have to go secretly. Otherwise, the army would have mutinied if they knew that the generals were going to abandon them and flee.

Xin wanted to take away the Mongol soldiers and the Semu soldiers, as well as nearly 10,000 remaining war horses. But he knew he couldn't. There were too few ships, and if all the ships were used to take the Mongol soldiers away, the Goryeo and Nanjin generals would not cooperate, and the Goryeo and Nanjin armies would most likely rebel.

You must know that most of the surviving ships are still in the hands of the Goryeo Army and the Southern Army.

The best way is to take all the generals above the fifth grade with them, and then bring some personal soldiers and war horses, food, and water.

Xin Du plans to do so, and Jin Fangqing, Fan Wenhu and others also plan to do so.

Xin Du and the others secretly made up their minds, not only to leave, but also not to publicize it. This also has the advantage of leaving a large army to attract the attention of the Japanese army, so that they can calmly return home.

As soon as several generals were combined, they immediately ordered their henchmen to quickly arrange a "retreat", while the vast majority of the sergeants were still in the dark.

Finally survived until the afternoon, Xin Du and others ordered all the generals above the fifth rank to be summoned into the big tent in the name of raising the account, and then announced the order of "retreat".

At the same time, the personal guards of the generals also surrounded the big tent. If any of the generals objected, they would be killed immediately.

What the?!

Although the generals were not surprised to hear this decision, it was still difficult to accept.

Don't want an army of 90,000? Leave it all here? This... What a reason!

But the people were not stupid, and when they thought about it, they knew that this was the safest way for them.

Zhang Xi couldn't help but stand up and said: "Xindu Badu, now our army still has nearly 100,000 people, if we hold the two islands, or forcibly land and fight against the water, there will be no chance to turn the tide of the war." Please think twice. ”

Xin Du snorted coldly and did not speak. Fan Wenhu said for him: "Zhang Gong, now that there are no ships, ordnance and war horses, how can we still land?" Even if you log in, what can you do? ”

Jin Fangqing also sighed: "There are too many things to lose, and this battle cannot be fought." Zhang Gong, the old man is more unwilling than you, but it can only be like this. ”

Zhang Xi sighed and stopped talking.

Thus, the "retreat" plan was thus decided.

Soon, hundreds of generals left the big tent in Xindu, organized their own soldiers to select the best ships, searched for the only remaining military rations and water, and quietly boarded the ships.

And the vast majority of sergeants are still obeying military orders to repair fortifications.

On August 2, the hurricane was much smaller. Xin Du and the others did not dare to delay any longer, and secretly ordered the ship to "retreat".

Only Zhang Xi, because he couldn't bear it, left the war horse on his ship and let the thousands of Yuan troops on Hirado Island board the ship.

In the end, dozens of the best warships carried the generals of the Yuan army, his own soldiers, as well as food and water, and a small number of war horses, and fled.

The number of people who "retreated", there were only eight thousand.

And by the time the remaining 80,000 people knew, Xin Du and the others had already gone away.

Xin Du and the others not only took away all the generals above the fifth grade, but also many officers with good faces from hundreds of households. There are more than 80,000 people left, and there are not even many officials from 100 households. There are more than 100 households, and there is not one.

At this moment, the Yuan army lost its command and organization, and almost became a piece of scattered sand.

More than 80,000 people immediately blew up the nest, and everyone scolded and was abandoned by the generals. Then, they began to scramble for the remaining boats. But there were too many people and too few boats, and in the end no one could go.

The remaining hundred household officials are no longer able to restrain their subordinates.

All of a sudden, more than 80,000 remnants of the army were in a mess, scurrying around like headless ants.

At this time, the Japanese army finally found out the news of the Yuan army. Shao Erjingzi and others all laughed loudly, and everyone wrote poems to celebrate, thanking God for the help of the gods.

"Gentlemen, now that the gods are helping, the heavens are punishing the Yuankou, and the demonic atmosphere has plummeted, it is the time for us to break the enemy and make contributions! The princes quickly commanded their subordinates, prepared to go to the sea to attack, and did not let Yuan Kou escape a single person, and must annihilate them all! ”

"Hello!"

In the Japanese camp, the fighting spirit was high, everyone was like chicken blood, and a large number of samurai knelt on the ground, thanking the kamikaze for help.

Immediately afterwards, on the one hand, the Japanese army ordered the naval forces of Shimazu Hisatsu and Takeki Kicho to pursue and intercept the retreating Yuan army generals, and on the other hand, arranged a full-scale military strategy to strangle the Yuan army on Eagle Island.

In addition, the general of Zhensai, Hojo Shizheng, also sent a message to the shogunate ruling Hojo Tokimune, saying that the kamikaze heavenly help, the Yuan army fleet was destroyed, and the losses were heavy, and most of the generals abandoned the army and fled, and wiped out the remnants of the Yuan Kou army within a few days.

Hojo Tokimune of the Kamakura shogunate was overjoyed to receive the military report, and while symbolically playing the Kyoto Imperial Court's victory, he ordered the dismissal of more than 100,000 reinforcements who were ready to go.

At this moment, due to the help of the gods, the overall situation is decided, and the Yuan Kok day is about to be flattened. There was absolutely no need to send a second batch of reinforcements. These hundreds of thousands of reinforcements, even if they are not pulled, the money and food consumed every day are huge. It's better to simply dismiss and save food.

Hojo Tokimune's decision to dismiss more than 100,000 reinforcements soon made him regret even his intestines. You must know that once more than 100,000 reinforcements are reconvened and then drawn to the front line in Kyushu, it will take at least half a month. That's a lot of time.

…………

When the Yuan army encountered a hurricane, Li Luo of Yakushima had already ordered the fleet to be stationed in the north of the island.

The hurricane is southeasterly, and Yakushima is very high, so it is safest to moor in the north of the island. Although the hurricane was large, it was much smaller on the north shore of Yakushima because the mountain peaks on the island blocked the hurricane.

In addition, Li Luo's ship was not shoddy, and the quality was much better than that of the Yuan army, and Li Luo ordered the ships to keep a distance from each other in advance, so not even a single ship sank.

The result is more than just peace.

Because Li Luo said before that Lao Jun dreamed, there would be a strong wind within ten days. The Goryeo Army and the Ning Navy still didn't believe it. But now, it has been fulfilled.

The officers and men of the Goryeo Army and the Ning Navy were suddenly amazed.

It's a miracle.

Could it be that Li Shuai is really a rich and noble person blessed by the gods?

This incident suddenly made Li Luo taller in the hearts of the soldiers, and his morale was even higher.

Li Luo effortlessly won the military hearts of the Jianghua Navy Division and the Ninghai Sea Division. And although Jianghua Xiangyong and Haidongjun were not surprised, they were also more in awe of their lords.

Even Jiang Jun and Yang Qingque, who were not from Li Luo's lineage, were more respectful to Li Luo.

In their view, a person who is blessed by the gods must be a person with good fortune. The Tang State has such a sovereign, and it will ...... in the future There's a lot to look forward to.

Early in the morning of August 3, when the hurricane had already subsided, Li Luo suddenly summoned the generals and said with a shocked face: "Yesterday, Lao Jun dreamed again, saying that the Eastern Expeditionary Army had encountered a hurricane and had already encountered a great disaster......

What the!

The faces of the Goryeo generals and Luo Yu and others changed greatly. But this time, they were convinced.

Li Luo said again: "Lao Jun said that in a place called Eagle Island, there are many soldiers who have survived. Time is running out, Ben Shuai decided to rescue immediately! ”

"Lao Jun also said that there is no danger here, and he can still make great achievements......"

There is no danger, and it is a great achievement! The Goryeo Army and the Admiral Ning were excited.

"Then please set sail north!" Luo Yu was the first to stand up and said.

Li Luo said solemnly: "Pass on the commander's military order, the rearguard army will immediately set sail north, and within three days, you must reach Eagle Island!" ”

"No!" The generals will receive the order together.

Half an hour later, a huge fleet left Yakushima and sailed north with a strong southerly wind.

On the afternoon of 5 August, before the Japanese army could gather its forces to go to the sea to encircle and suppress the remnants of Eagle Island, Li Luo's fleet came to the waters of Ivan Bay.

The Japanese naval division on guard nearby, when they saw the huge fleet, did not dare to fight head-on, but flew to report to the Japanese battalion on the shore: there are more Yuankou to help, no less than 50,000 people!

This was a miscalculation by the Japanese army.

Li Luo's entire army plus non-combatants is only 16,000, where did 50,000 come from?

However, Li Luo's fleet was lightly loaded, and many of the ships were almost empty. And they are all medium and large sea vessels, so it does seem that there are tens of thousands of people.

This is "thanks" to Pu Shougeng. Li Luo seized 150 Pu's boats last time, all of which were well-made medium and large sea vessels. Without that seizure, he wouldn't have been able to pretend to be fat.

When Shao Erjingzi and the others heard that there were tens of thousands of yuan in reinforcements, and they were all big ships, they were immediately poured like a basin of cold water in their hearts.

The Japanese commander suddenly hesitated. The original plan was to take advantage of the loss of the Yuankou warship and trap Eagle Island, and the whole army went to sea on August 6 and launched a general attack on August 7. The chief of Zhuqi Ji was responsible for encircling and suppressing the last warship of Yuankou, and the land division led by Shao Erjing personally encircled and suppressed the remnants of Yuankou on Eagle Island.

But now tens of thousands of yuan of reinforcements have arrived, which has disrupted the layout of the Japanese army at once.

Obviously, the original plan had to be revised.

Although the Japanese army had 100,000 people, including tens of thousands of cavalry, they really did not dare to compete with the Yuan army. They have fought many times before, and they all know how strong the Yuan army is.

"Your Excellency, do you want to intercept the Yuankou reinforcements?" Shimazu said through gritted teeth.

Shao Er Jingzi frowned, opened and put away the folding fan in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "There are tens of thousands of Yuankou reinforcements, and they are all big ships, and the combat power of the sailors must be extraordinary." Our sailors, it is very difficult to intercept them. Only let them go to the island. ”

Shimazu said with a long-standing hatred: "It's a pity! At a critical juncture, Yuankou reinforcements came! ”

"Probe, report!" Shao Er Jingzi decided not to attack easily for the time being, so as not to be overturned by the Yuan Kou, so he could only order a close monitoring of the movements of the Yuan army, and then decide how to adjust the military strategy.

On Eagle Island at this time, the remnants of the Yuan army, who were cornered, spontaneously repaired the fortifications, and at the same time made a messy proposal to elect a commander.

Who doesn't know that a snake can't be headless? There are more than 80,000 people, and a leader must be elected in order to lead everyone to escape.

If they want to go down like this again, they will be finished before the Japanese army attacks. You know, they haven't eaten for two days, and they can't drink even water.

Without military rations, many people were hungry and weak. Even the fierce Mongolian soldiers before were also hungry and listless at this time.

The crowd began to kill horses and eat meat. There are also nearly 10,000 horses on the island, which is enough to eat for a while. But without the horses, their situation is even more dangerous. Moreover, what to do when the horse runs out of eating?

Death!

If there were enough ships and ordnance, they could still land to the death and fight on their backs. But now, it can't.

The top priority at the moment is to first nominate a group of generals before they can have a way to live.

The remaining hundred household officials in the remnant army were all elected by the soldiers, but for a while, they couldn't be decided at all.

Just then, they spotted a huge fleet of ships heading this way.

"Prepare to meet the enemy! The Japanese army is coming! The remnants of the army rushed to the seashore, and those who had lost their weapons could only take a stick.

The Japanese army must not be allowed to attack, otherwise everyone will be finished.

"It's not the Japanese army! It's your own people! Soon, the remnants of the seaside army shouted excitedly.

Isn't it? As the fleet approached, it was already possible to see the big blue wolf battle flag of the Yuan army. Moreover, the ships of this fleet are quite large, much larger than the Japanese ships, and they are definitely not the Japanese fleet.

When the ship approached again, the remnants of the army had already determined that it was the Yuan army.

"Reinforcements have arrived!"

"Reinforcements have arrived!"

The shouts soon spread throughout the island, from near and far, and everyone was in high spirits.

By the time the fleet landed, tens of thousands of people had already gathered on the shore, all staring at the ship with their heads hooked to see who the reinforcement general was.

In particular, the two new warships attracted everyone's attention. The reinforcement general, it must be on these two ships.

Soon, a young general dressed in a splendid Goryeo armor, surrounded by the soldiers of the brigade, got out of a new type of war ship and walked down the ladder.

"This marshal is in charge of the Eastern Expeditionary Guard Army, and Li Luo, who is in charge of the army, leads the army to help!" Li Luo said loudly, and casually sealed himself as a manager of the army.

Manage the army and 10,000 households? That's a three-grade master!

Ok ok! Li Wanhu led the army to help, where do you need to recommend the commander? Isn't this a ready-made manager?

"Meet the officials of ten thousand households!"

"Meet the officials of ten thousand households!"

The soldiers of the remnants of the army bowed down in turn like the wind blowing wheat waves with the etiquette of seeing the officials, and a large area of black pressure was pressed.

Even the Mongolian soldiers and the Semu soldiers among them couldn't help but touch their chests and bow down.

With more than 10,000 elite soldiers disembarking and marching in line, as well as a large amount of food and ordnance being transported off the ship, the morale of the remnants of the army was greatly boosted, and more and more people gathered.

There is no objection from anyone, it is completely "the expectation of all".

Except for Li Luo, no one is qualified. Who called him the highest official position, and brought soldiers, horses, and quartermasters?

"Ten thousand big officials, except for big officials, who can lead so many soldiers and horses!"

"The matter is urgent, the Japanese army will attack in a blink of an eye, please take the overall situation first, don't shirk!"

Some of the remaining 100 household officials also expressed their positions.

Without any obstacles, Li Luo was still on the beach, and he was elected as the general of the Great Yuan Expedition to the East, and easily took over the command of more than 80,000 remnants.

With more than 10,000 Li Luo, plus more than 80,000 remnants, the strength of the Eagle Island Yuan Army has once again reached 100,000!

The first military order of Li Luo, the freshly baked general of the Eastern Expedition, was to distribute military rations and dried fish, so that the remnants of the army could eat first.

The second military order sent hundreds of commanders and some generals to temporarily serve as the heads of 100 households, 1,000 households, and 10,000 households of the remnants of the army, restore the command and management of each unit, and firmly control the power of the remnants of the army through personnel rights. Then let them quickly count the number of the department.

Soon, order was restored to the remnants of the army again.

At dusk, Li Luo's temporary Chinese army tent came to the sound of drums.

"The general has been raised!" The new heads of 10,000 households and 1,000 households heard the sound of drums and went to the big tent of the Chinese army.

ps: Today's monthly pass is pitiful, and I can't lift my spirits when I see it. There is also a commuter pass, so please support it. Recommended tickets are also required.
