Chapter 62: Comparing Archery with Sun Renshi

In the third year of Longshuo (663 AD), the fifteenth day of autumn and August, the Mid-Autumn Festival, is not seven quarters.

The Battle of the Baicun River in the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Xiongjin Fleet, and the Battle of the Japanese Naval Division. The commander-in-chief, Wu Kang, and the deputy commander, Sun Renshi, set up a fire tong array, using the flagship as a bait to lure the enemy into the tiger's den. With the upright conspiracy, they have no choice, only by beheading tactics can they turn defeat into victory.

The Japanese army made a desperate bet, and the Tang army decisively laughed and set fire to it. Cut off the enemy's warship, the entire barrage, and successfully tie it into the pocket. In order to save the robe, the Japanese army ordered the warship to be outside the pincer and launch a death charge.

They became crazy in seconds, facing the dense rockets, desperately ramming the Mong. After paying a heavy price, they were finally able to take overboard, and the Japanese army forcibly boarded the ship, and the two sides were short to fight. However, without eggs, they are doomed.

Wearing leather armor and bamboo armor, holding short knives and spears, and pedaling straw sandals. In the face of iron-clad chain mail, equipped with horse lances and horizontal swords, the Tang army, which was high-spirited, was almost a head-off. The guards chopped melons and vegetables, and the Japanese soldiers who were fighting on the side did not survive for more than three minutes.

In accordance with the strategic deployment, the heads of the Japanese soldiers were cut off, and the corpses of the Japanese soldiers were all thrown into the Baijiang River. The corpse sank rapidly, the head barely floating, rippling everywhere, and the picture was spectacular.

This hurt morale too much, and the Japanese soldiers finally collapsed, and the Luyuan monarch and ministers wept bitterly and gave the order to retreat. led the remnants of the defeated generals, as well as more than 200 warships, quickly evacuated the battlefield, and fled to the Wa Kingdom in a hurry.

The Japanese soldiers in the fire tongs were surrounded by raging fire and were in purgatory. The Tang army carried out tactics, and the left and right boats circled the battle, and the Japanese army was cornered, and the ships could not maneuver. The warship turned into a fireboat, and the soldiers could only jump into the river, and after a long breath, they swam towards the Tang ship.

The Japanese language is mixed with Chinese, and the entire Baicun River is wailing and begging for mercy. At this moment, the overall situation has been decided, the Tang army stopped firing arrows, the drummers beat the war drums, and the guards shouted loudly. The lance soldiers gathered on the side of the ship, and the horse lance with four feet long assassinated the Japanese soldiers under the ship, and the picture resembled pounding garlic.

As a general, Wu Kang knows everything about people's deaths. When a person dies in the water, the body sinks first until it sinks to the bottom. The corpse is decomposed, generating a putrefactive gas, and it accumulates to a certain extent before the corpse floats.

The internal organs decay faster than the lower body, so the floating corpse floats, the upper body floats on the water, and the lower limbs are soaked in the water. The female corpse is face up, because the buttocks are larger, the back is heavy and the front is light. The male corpse is the opposite, with a light back and a heavy front, with the face down.

The Japanese soldiers under the boat were stabbed to death, and the corpses sank to the bottom of the river, and the Japanese soldiers in the back row followed up to meet the Tang army's horse lance. They had no choice but to stay on the boat and burn to death, jump into the river and drown, swim under the boat and stab them to death. The only way to survive is for the Mong to lay the ropes and take them prisoner and get on the ship.

In fact, to put it bluntly, their fate is in the hands of Wu Kang. And this savior, who is competing with General Renshi, is competing for the number of shots, and has no time to give orders. The quiver pulls out the feathered arrows, the strong bow is drawn into a full moon, searches for targets in the water, and finally the feathered arrows leave the string.

The flagship pro-soldier guard, neatly reported the number, reported one hundred and nine. People are blindly obedient, and I don't know when, the drums and shouts stopped, and all the Xiongjin soldiers were following the same example. On the wide Baijiang River, the numbers continue to accumulate, roaring straight into the sky.

In the sea of fire, in the center of the Japanese military ship, there is a big Tang Dynasty ship, which is still capable of moving. It is the flagship of the Japanese army, the hull is very dilapidated, and the history is quite long. In the past, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty conquered Goguryeo three times, all of which ended in failure.

The ship was a trophy of war, which was captured by Goguryeo and given to the king of the Wa Kingdom. The king of the Japanese had a funny mind, meddled in the Korean Peninsula, and sent an expeditionary navy. The eldest brother of the crown prince gave this big ship to Park Shitian Laijin as the flagship of the Japanese army.

At this moment, there were dozens of Japanese soldiers kneeling in the cabin, and the atmosphere was very depressing. On the throne of the north, kneeling sat two young men, about fifteen years of age. The men were dressed in purple robes, and the women were dressed in plain clothes, both dressed as Tang people.

Park Shitian came to Jin, kneeling in front of the two, already in tears. Holding the dagger in his right hand, his voice was choked and trembling: "I beg Prince Kawashima to surrender to the Kumazu Naval Division, and you must live." In today's battle situation, we must find ways to inform the eldest brother of the prince. ”

He couldn't cry: "We poured all the strength of the whole country into forming an expeditionary sailor, and in front of the Tang Empire, we were even vulnerable. The old minister's crime is unforgivable, and he has no shame to return to the country, so he can only apologize for his crime with death. Before he died, he begged the prince of Kawashima to tell the crown prince. ”

After the death of King Qi Ming, the eldest brother did not ascend the throne, and as the crown prince, he controlled the government of the Wa Kingdom. Kawashima is his son, and as a prisoner, he followed the sailors on an expedition. The little girl next to her, the same sister Asuka, quietly followed.

Park City continued to cry: "People are dying, and their words are good. Please tell the crown prince and ask Emperor Tang for guilt, no matter what the conditions, you must agree to them. At the same time, Tang envoys were sent to learn from the Tang State, and all of them had to be learned. ”

Speaking of this, his expression was serious: "The old minister is very worried that in order to retaliate, Emperor Tang will send the Tang fleet to invade our mainland." Therefore, the old minister suggested that the whole country should be mobilized to build defensive measures and be prepared. ”

Kawashima burst into tears: "The strength of the Japanese Kingdom and the Tang Kingdom is very different, how dare you provoke again." However, General Park City, the commander of the Tang Army, was a god of murder. He has been on the battlefield for a long time, is extremely vicious, and has a ruthless heart. Twenty-eight years old this year, he is a hardliner in the Tang State and will not accept surrender. ”

Asuka hung her head, biting her lip and not speaking, looking like she wanted to cry, and her delicate body trembled. As early as in the Imperial Palace of the Wa Kingdom, I had heard of Wukang's murderous name, and he was bloodthirsty, and he was the killing god of the Tang Kingdom. Once in the Mobei grassland, he killed Tiele and surrendered soldiers, a full 130,000 people.

He also hated the Japanese people, and the army that came to aid Baekje was captured by him, and all of them were beheaded for public display. Now that the sailor has been defeated, he has won the battle, and he should stop killing and salvage the soldiers who have fallen into the water. But what he is doing now is to kill everything, and even if we surrender, we will be executed by him.

Pu Shi's face was like ashes, he put down the dagger in his hand, and held up the square brocade box: "This is given by the prince, the yellow robe of King Qi Ming, and the prince's national book." As long as the yellow robe is unfolded, Wu Kang will not be presumptuous. What the old minister said just now is that the prince will convey it, and the old minister is grateful. ”

After saying that, he put down the brocade box, pulled out a sharp dagger, and killed himself by the neck. Asuka couldn't help it, covered her mouth and cried. Kawashima raised his head and sighed, stood up after a long time, glanced at the guards in the cabin, and gave a faint order: "The flagship will rely on the river and surrender to the Tang army." ”

At this moment, on the Baicun River, the number is still being reported, and the game is still going on. Wu Kang searched for prey and soon found an anomaly, and many figures appeared on the deck of the flagship of the Japanese army. Dozens of ironclad soldiers, holding iron shields in their hands, formed a circle to defend themselves.

There are three men in the center, with spears held high on the left and heads hanging from them. On the right, there are two wooden sticks, supporting an ochre yellow robe, yellow in color with red. Similar to earthy yellow, and like the afterglow of the sunset, it is the emperor's special color, and only Li Jiu can wear it.

I really don't dare to be presumptuous, shooting Li Jiu's holy robe, it is a big disrespectful act, and it will be put on the line. The Japanese people were finally relieved, and the warship moved with difficulty, slowly approaching the river bank. The drowning Japanese soldiers were shouting for help, some grabbed the oars, and some climbed the warship.

The ship's guards quickly drew their bows and arrows, shot the drowning robes, and kept the flagship sailing. The Tang army no longer reported the number, and began to wave the flag and shout, you are killing each other, and we are strong onlookers. Encourage the drowning Japanese soldiers to quickly overturn the boat.

The picture was quite joyful, Wu Kang scoffed, suddenly turned the arrow, and aimed at the flagship. The sharp arrow is galloping, and the shield guard on the left is shot by the arrow in the lower abdomen. With a desolate scream, he discarded the shield in his hand, his body had not yet fallen, and he was hit by an arrow in the chest again.

Wu Kang took the feather arrow, but he didn't pull the bowstring, looked at Renshi and smiled: "Your old Sun family is very good at fighting widows, and Senior Brother Ren is one." There are also General Qi Jiguang and General Sun Liren, all of whom are famous generals in the fight against the Japanese. On the other hand, my old martial artist couldn't show his hand. ”

Renshi hehe: "The surname Sun and the surname Qi, but they can come from the same ancestor, and I also agree with this." However, throughout history, the Battle of Baijiang was the first confrontation between the Han and the Japanese. Qi Jiguang and Sun Liren, history has never recorded, and I have never heard of it, so please change your doubts. ”

Wu Kang smiled and said nothing, this can't be in a hurry, it will be in thousands of years. Slowly pulled out the longbow, aimed at the right side of the yellow robe, and said matter-of-factly: "Throughout ancient and modern history, there is no celebrity in the martial arts. The only one who can take out his hand is probably his sister, and his reputation is not very good. ”

The feather arrow shot out, and the shield hand on the right side of the yellow robe was also an arrow in the lower abdomen. Renshi launched decisively, completed the heart mending knife, shook his head and said: "Brother Fool thinks that the queen has a good reputation. Listening to the water post tolerance, the edict of the shipbuilding was advised by the queen. ”

It seems that there is some truth, and I received an official document not long ago: Haidong has used troops for many years, the people are trapped in recruitment, and the guards are drowning in battle, which can be called a lot of cattle hair. Li Jiu issued an edict to strike Qingzhou, Laizhou, etc., and the shipyards of 36 states. Send Siyuan (household department) officials to give ten condolences to the people.

Let's not talk about the rest, Mei Niang still loves the people a lot. In recent years, either the conquest of Goguryeo or the crusade against Baekje. The people have suffered so much that they must recuperate, especially in the coastal areas. Unless there are special circumstances, there will be no more crusades in the last five years.

I can't help sighing, when will Goguryeo in the north be extinguished. Depressed picked up his strong bow, aimed at the left and right of the yellow robe, and continued to shoot the Japanese soldiers. The guards kept counting the numbers, and when Mong Mo came in, there were only three people left on the deck. The enemy soldiers who raised their heads, the men and women in yellow robes, were all trembling.

The guards put down the hook and lock, hooked the Japanese country, and the yachts on both sides set out. Tied around their waists, the guards shouted in unison, and pulled them aboard the boat. Qian Shun pulled out the horizontal knife and roared in his voice: "No matter who you are, after I count three times, kneel in front of the general, otherwise the head will fall to the ground." ”

Kawashima just spit out two words, in exchange for two slaps, the snap was very loud, scared Asuka to cry. The guards shouted to shut up, and Qian Shun shouted angrily again: "The previous identity has nothing to do with me, and the current identity is a prisoner of war of our army." Naion began to count, whether you want to live or die, you choose. ”

As soon as he counted the second sound, Kawashima pulled his sister and knelt on the deck. Raising the yellow robe in his hand, facing Wu Kang's back, he begged loudly: "I am the prince of Kawashima, she is my female brother, the princess of Asuka." The eldest brother of the prince of the Wa Kingdom, our father, begs the general for mercy. ”

Wu Kang turned a deaf ear, searched for the drowning target, and continued to shoot arrows with a bow. Kawashima's heart was like a knife, and he lowered his voice and pleaded: "As a supervising army, I announce that my country's naval division will surrender to the Kumazu fleet. I implore General Wu to extinguish the fire on the Baijiang River and rescue the drowning soldiers. ”

After a brief silence, the guards laughed wildly, and their laughter was very presumptuous. Qian Shun briefly interrogated and cautiously reported: "The owner of this head is the commander of the Japanese army, Pu Shitian Laijin, who has already apologized for his crimes. The identity of this brother and sister should be true, as evidenced by the book of the country. ”

Wu Kang didn't respond, repeating the shooting action, and the guards smiled even more. The sea of fire is still spreading, and all the guards of Xiongjin are assassinating the drowning. At some point, Asuka collapsed, and suddenly got up with a strange scream, intending to rush to the bow of the ship.

It was quickly controlled, and Hiraro raised his horizontal knife, and Kawashima screamed. Qian Shun hurriedly stopped it, and Asuka wailed: "Please let the soldiers go, we have surrendered, and the general cannot be killed." They all have parents, wives and children, and I beg the general to be gracious, and if you can forgive, I am willing to do anything..."

With a banging kowtow, this cute girl went crazy, and Wu Kang ignored it until the quiver was empty. Preventing the guards from adding arrows and moving their sore wrists, Qian Shun reported the data: "The general has three hundred and two arrows, and three hundred and two people have been hit, and General Sun is the same." The two generals, without false hair, are admired. ”

Wu Kang looked at the benevolent master and said with a strange smile: "Three hundred and two, my bad taste has been satisfied. It's better to stop here, you and I shake hands and make peace. Of course, if my brother doesn't want to, then let's continue, and I'll be with you to the end. ”

The benevolent master laughed, handed the longbow to the guard, and half-jokingly said: "Uncle who has changed this voice, the foolish brother can't afford it, so the competition will be stopped." The foolish brother practiced archery at the age of five, and has been thirty-five years since then, and he is only twenty-eight years old, but he can be equal, which is enviable. ”

Wu Kang hurried up and was humble, there was nothing to envy, I was talented. After some business blowing, the benevolent teacher whispered and persuaded: "It's really almost, order to catch people." These drowning soldiers can be used as prisoners of war, and we are better off getting along. ”

Taste it carefully, it seems to make sense. Wu Kang nodded slightly, the benevolent teacher gave orders, and the standard-bearer passed the flag. The guards cheered, and according to the previous practice, they began to sing praises of virtue: the Tang Dynasty is mighty, the general of Xiongjin Dao, General Zuo Fengchenwu, mighty...

In the sound of neat shouts, the Mong guards put down the ropes and salvaged the drowning widows. Sun Renshi was right, these Japanese prisoners of war were the best captures. According to the practice of marching, the tools for counting the exploits of war are the spoils of war and the population.

The Baekje country is in chaos, and the Baekje people cannot be captured, which is not conducive to counterinsurgency. And these Japanese people, who had nothing to do with the situation in Baekje, were all escorted back to Datang and handed over to Si Rong for payment. The head of Mao Ye Zhizi, the head of Park Ichida Laijin, and this pair of brothers and sisters should be able to make a difference.

Looking ahead, the blood stained the red and white river, and the smoke and fire were intertwined. The boundless heat wave swept in, with the scorching sun, the sky and the earth were like steamers. Countless planks floated, flags and war drums were displayed everywhere, and the corpses of countless Japanese soldiers sank to the bottom of the river.

I couldn't help but laugh dumbly, waiting for a few days later, the body surfaced, it should be even more spectacular. Like a large piece of duckweed, it goes south along the Baijiang River, along the Xiongjin River, and flows into the Yellow Sea in the west. Or eaten by sea fish, or rotted by the sea, forever annihilated in history.

The naval battle of Baicun River in Zhongwu came to an end at this moment, and he was fortunate to live up to his life and achieved brilliant results. There are not many historical records about this war, but the significance is far-reaching. The Japanese army was driven back to the island country, and the political and cultural pattern of the whole East Asia was established.

For more than 900 years, the Japanese people have been living in overseas island countries and dare not provoke China. Until the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, Toyotomi Hideyoshi invaded the dynasty, and was taught a lesson by Huaxia and fled back. Later, when I was in the Qing Dynasty, I was pressed on the ground and rubbed, which was a big joke.

This battle was also of far-reaching significance to the Japanese state. Frequently sent Tang envoys, worshipping the Tang Dynasty as a teacher, from the political and legal system to the small food, clothing, housing and transportation, almost copied and copied. From a serf society, the Japanese country entered a feudal society and knocked on the door of a strong country.

suddenly remembered the video of my best friend Li Lingyue in my previous life. It is a historical documentary, telling the story of later Japan, archaeological defense of the earthen fortress. It is said that the eldest brother, Emperor Tenchi, built a defense measure to prevent the invasion of the Tang Dynasty after the defeat at the mouth of the Baijiang River.

All kinds of water city beacons, hoarding countless grain and grass, like the Maginot Line, tightly surrounding the capital. However, it is a pity that it did not come in handy, and the central organ of the Tang Dynasty did not send a navy to crusade. In Wu Kang's view, he looked down on the Japanese state, and aggression was equal to poverty alleviation.

The strange laughter interrupted his thoughts, and the benevolent teacher was amazed: "Look at the princess of the Japanese Kingdom, she is born with a charming backbone, and her ass is very good, and she is definitely suitable for change." There are so many concubines in your family, and there is no news before we set out on the expedition. Listen to the advice of the foolish brother, if you don't have an heir, you can't change it to a little princess? ”

This is an old rascal, Wu Kang rolled his eyes and slowly turned to check. The twelve-year-old girl, kneeling on the deck, with a horizontal knife around her neck, and her buttocks are really big. After staring at each other for less than ten seconds, I was frightened by grimaces, and tears came down my face.

Renshi gloated, looked Wu Kang up and down, smacked his lips and ridiculed: "This face has changed, three points are not like a person, and seven points are more like a ghost." was originally heroic, but he was dragged down alive by the scar on his cheek. Such a charming lady, it's a pity to turn it in, do you want it or not, you don't want me. ”

Wu Kang was speechless, now there is no plastic surgery, and the scar can't be removed. Despised Sun Renshi, coughed dryly to resolve the embarrassment, and looked at Prince Kawashima: "Your father's eldest brother, has he ascended the throne now, is he the king of Tianzhi?" Do you have an uncle named Second Brother? ”

Kawashima was slightly stunned, and hurriedly replied: "General Huiwu's words, my father has not yet ascended the throne and is called the crown prince, so there is no title." I have two uncles, the uncle of the eldest brother of the ancients, the uncle of the sea people, and the second brother uncle of Wuzhong. ”

It's a pity that such a good name is not preemptively registered. Wu Kang pondered for a moment and instructed the Kawashima brothers and sisters: "As prisoners of war, you will follow General Ben and return to Datang for trial." I don't embarrass you, but if you have the conditions, take care of your country's troops. If you have an accident, you will be punished and even lose your life. ”

After speaking, he walked to the cabin, and Sun Renshi immediately followed, and glanced at Qian Shun. The two left the deck, and Qian Shun slowly squatted down and threatened Asuka: "From now on, General Wu's daily life is fully responsible for you, including warming the bed and sleeping together." ”

Asuka shook her head hurriedly, and was about to speak, but was covered by Kawashima. Qian Shun glanced at Kawashima and saw that his face was happy, and he couldn't help but sneer: "You kid knows current affairs, our general Wuda, is the queen's brother, the saint's wife and brother, and his status is very noble." ”

Looking down at Asuka, Yin and Yang said in a strange manner: "You barbarian princess, in the eyes of Naiweng, you are not bullshit." Finally, I warn you, don't be ignorant, or you will be thrown into the sea. First change your name to Qian Xiangniang, if you serve well, it is estimated that you can be surnamed Cui. Now come with me, take a shower and change your clothes, and then go to bed tonight. ”

Qian Shunren looked like a dog, and ordered Zhao Sheng and others to be forcibly escorted to the second floor. In the command room on the first floor, Wu Kang drank alcohol and said with a wry smile: "My old friend, Xu Jingzong, is supervising the history of the country. He once made it clear to me that all my military exploits have been recorded in the history of the country. ”

Sun Renshi was in a fog, and what he said about these things was inexplicable. Wu Kang invited him to drink together, played with the wine glass and said, "May I ask Senior Brother Ren, what kind of method can make people's names disappear completely?" ”

The atmosphere began to fall silent, and the benevolent master pondered for a long time, and after a long time, he whispered: "It's like burning books and pit Confucianism, the sage personally ordered that your history books be removed." And issue a gag order, not allowed to be recorded in wild history, so that your name will disappear completely. It's just that the foolish brother is puzzled, why is there such a question? ”

Because I am a great Wukang, the history of the Tang Dynasty is famous at this time, and the history of the Tang Dynasty in later generations is unknown. The commander of the naval battle at the mouth of the Baijiang River was General Right Wuwei and Sun Renshi, the governor of Xiongjin. A few glasses of stuffy wine, too lazy to think nonsense, love what's going on. I don't know if the army is breaking the city for a long time...
