Chapter 529: Preparing for War
"Your Majesty doesn't have to be angry, the Wa Kingdom is already in our pocket, just see when to get it!"
According to Zhao Yin's speculation, the second batch of warships should have been almost built, and it is estimated that it will not be long before they can go to the Japanese country.
"The conquest of the Japanese Kingdom is a big deal, let's go back first!"
Li Er glanced at the scenery of Laizhou and said helplessly.
Originally, he wanted to play for a few more days, but the country's major affairs were important, especially when he heard that the ambition of the Japanese State was to annex the mainland, he became more and more anxious!
Although Chang'an has a prince in charge, he still can't be the master of such a major event as the conquest of the Wa Kingdom!
Once they had made up their minds, they packed up and set off.
Although they were on the way, the order to strangle the Japanese had already reached Chang'an City, and a large number of Japanese had been arrested in the past few days, some of them were real merchants, and some of them were spies sent by the Japanese state.
"It seems that Datang's next target is really the Wa Kingdom, and we have to send the news back quickly!"
The territory of Datang is vast, and it is impossible to catch all the Japanese people in a few days, and it is inevitable that there will be fish that slip through the net.
And this situation is inevitable!
"What to do? Datang is going to do something to us! ”
After receiving the news, the Emperor of Wakuni summoned his confidants and important ministers to discuss the matter urgently.
The current situation in the Japanese state is very unstable, but in the current situation of the great enemy, they still feel that they are united with the outside world.
As for the civil strife, let's wait until this hurdle is over!
"During the Northern Expedition of the Tang Dynasty, they successively destroyed Silla, Baekje and other countries, and we also studied their tactics!"
Su Bowen thought for a moment and said coldly.
"And then?"
The Emperor of Wakuni also asked with a blank face.
Although the two are now sitting together to discuss matters, in the Japanese Dynasty, the two are opposites!
Because the Soga family has always been a monopoly on power, trying to overthrow him as the emperor.
Now it's only because of the current enemy that we are discussing a solution!
"Datang now has the most advanced weapons, no matter how strong the city is, it can't withstand its attack, even in the field, Datang is like a divine soldier, wherever the enemy goes, there will be a sudden explosion until the whole army is annihilated, so whether it is defending the city or attacking in the wild, it can't stop Datang's footsteps!"
Su I blogged about everything I knew.
"Is it really that scary?"
The Emperor of Wakoku did not raise his eyebrows and asked, not quite believing what he said.
"What I'm talking about now is just scratching the surface, and Datang has now reached a point where we can't compete!"
Su Bowen has been to Datang, and he has never seen those industrialized things, and it is precisely because of this that he feels terrifying.
"With all that said, what solution can you come up with?"
Looking at his expression, it didn't seem like he was pretending to be afraid, and then the Emperor of the Wa Kingdom asked.
"Since Datang is good at land warfare, why don't we avoid these battlefields!"
Su I Ezo stroked his gray beard and said slyly.
Su I Bowen is his son and he absolutely believes what he says!
"Where?"
Without waiting for the Emperor of Wakoku to speak, the eldest brother of the mountain, the king, preemptively asked.
"There is a lot of land in the Tang Dynasty, and it is normal for them to be good at land warfare, our Japanese country is surrounded by the sea on all sides, and the sea is our protector, so it is better for us to change the battlefield to the sea!"
Soga Ezo's face is shining.
See through the weakness of others, and then grasp the weakness of others, so that you can hit with one hit!
"Yes, once the Datang people land, we won't be able to hold it, so we must intercept them in the sea in order to get a glimmer of life in the country!"
Su Bowen nodded repeatedly.
"...... on the sea?"
The Emperor of Wakoku stood up, folded his hands behind his back, and carefully considered his opinion, "This is a good idea, but the Wakoku is so big, I can't figure out where they will land?" ”
"According to the spies, Datang's latest sailing ships are all large ships, if you want to dock, you must not be in the port of the Su family!"
Su I said in a blog post with a little meaning.
"What do you think about this?"
The Emperor asked.
Although this incident was a slap in the face, he had to admit that the port of the Su I family was indeed the largest!
"This time, we must join forces to defend against the enemy, and if we are not careful, we will destroy the country!"
"If you want to join forces, who will command this team?"
Actually, that's the crux of the matter.
"No matter who is sent, the Su family has no opinion, as long as this person is good at water warfare!"
This time, the Su family made a great concession.
He was willing to let the imperial court lead his family forces!
This surprised the Emperor of the Wa Kingdom very much, and he thought that there would be a quarrel about the generals!
"This matter needs to be carefully considered, and it is not something that can be decided at once!"
Without waiting for the emperor to speak, Yamango made an excuse to bypass the matter.
"Okay, then wait for the imperial court to choose the generals, and then come and inform us!"
Su I Ezo shook off his sleeve robe and led his son back.
"Why doesn't Father fight for command of the water war?"
On the way back, Su Bowen asked suspiciously.
"What if I give up this command? There is no one in his court to send, even if he reluctantly finds someone to come up, our family's army will only obey their orders in this battle, and when the foreign enemy is repulsed, our army will still come back! ”
Soga Ezo said with a smile.
This matter is not only being discussed by them, but also by everyone in the DPRK and China.
"Why didn't you just assign someone out?"
The Emperor of Wakuni was a little angry.
If he gets the command, it means that the army of the Su family will obey him, which will be very beneficial to the unification of the Japanese country in the future!
"Soga Ezo is an old fox, does the emperor really think that he will release military power so easily?"
In the face of the emperor's anger, Yamabei did not get angry or afraid, but analyzed him unhurriedly.
"What do you mean?"
After listening to his words, the Emperor also felt that something was not quite right.
According to the character of the old man, he can't wait to come up and be the emperor himself, how can he delegate power?
"Even if we do send a general, after this battle, does the Emperor think they will still obey us? In the same way, even if we hand over the command to them, after the war is over, our soldiers will no longer obey his orders, not to mention, we simply have no generals suitable for water warfare to send! ”
It's a matter of life and death, and it's not the time to worry about who will lead it.
In fact, no matter who is in charge, after the war is over, the forces will still be divided!
They thought that as long as all the forces were gathered together, they could defend the Datang navy from the country.
But they really underestimated the strength of the navy!
"And what do you mean?"
The Emperor of Wakoku doesn't have any ideas right now.
"Su Bowen has been to Datang, and he knows more about the current situation of Datang than we do, so it's better to let him command!"
After thinking about it for a while, there was no more suitable person than him.
"Okay, let's do it!"
Now that the situation is urgent, it is necessary to quickly find a commander and make preparations.
