Chapter 108: Gao Hu goes out

Just as Yan Mengqing led the remnants all the way west, trying to get rid of the encirclement and interception of Moyu, Xianshan Island, the base camp of the Korean naval army, had been burned by the raging war, and both soldiers and women and children in the city were slaughtered.

At this time, the Fujido Gaohu was standing on the Maitreya Peak in the west of the island, looking down at the ruins and the corpses of Koreans scattered all around.

"Father-in-law, the Lord has an order to let you go to the isolated island immediately to defend against the enemy." Gao Ji ran to Gao Hu's side and said with a pant.

"Got it, it seems that this last battle will still be finished by us." Gao Hu ordered the little surname to put away the military rations, skillfully mounted the war horse, tightened the reins, and galloped towards the bottom of the mountain.

Just an hour ago, Hideho received a secret letter from Hyogao, saying that the main force of the Korean naval force had been intercepted in the waters of Yeongdo, hoping that he could take this opportunity to sneak attack Xianshan Island and eradicate this hidden danger that had been planted behind the Japanese army for many years in one fell swoop.

As Xiuqiu's military advisor, Xiaogao is the actual commander of this war, his words are military orders, and this is indeed a godsend, once the sneak attack is successful, not only Xianshan Island, but even the old nest of the Korean Marshal Quan Zheng will also be uprooted, and at that time, Xiubao can really sit back and relax and stay in Sacheon City to live a leisurely life.

Therefore, Hideho immediately convened a military meeting in Shinjo and appointed Fujido Takatora as the general of the navy this time, leading the Ise navy as the main force, and Horiuchi Zen and Kuki Yoshitaka as deputy generals, leading the Kumano Navy, and the Shima Navy, respectively, as the left and right wings, and marching with Takatora.

Hearing this arrangement, all the generals were suspicious, how could they use all their strength to deal with the sixty warships.

Xiubao smiled and replied: "If it is just to deal with those leftovers, it is indeed unnecessary for the whole army to be dispatched, but you have forgotten that this is the first joint operation of the 'Southeast Water Army' since the entry into the DPRK, and the annihilation of the enemy is not the main purpose, and the key to this battle is to exercise tacit understanding and show military might." Therefore, don't take it lightly, you must show the daimyo of Kyushu and Shikoku, not only their navy can gallop in the open sea, our southeast navy can also ride the wind and waves in this exotic sea area, unimpeded! ”

"The ministers will never let the lord lose face, and will definitely impress the barbarians of the Western Kingdom." Knowing Xiubao's true intentions, all the generals knelt down violently, determined to win glory for Xiubao and the Southeast Water Army.

At the end of the military discussion, Gao Hu took over the military distribution from Xiubao, and Shishan and Jialong were also matched, and after the three of them drank the practice wine given by Xiubao, they boarded their respective flagships, led more than 40 Da'an Mansions and more than 70 Guan Ships, and sailed out of Changshan Water Village and headed for Xianshan Island at the southern tip of the Tongying Peninsula.

The process of the sneak attack can be described as "extremely smooth", although the Korean sentry ships discovered the traces of the southeast naval army in advance, but most of the warships in the city were taken away by Yuan Jun, and the rest was only a small number of board house ships and sentry ships, which could not resist the menacing Japanese army at all.

Seeing the situation, the general defending the city immediately went to Gucheng to inform Quan, hoping that he could lead the defenders of Gucheng to the south to support. But at this time, Quan Zheng had already lost his skills, and he had no time to deal with the Japanese attack from the sea. It turned out that in order to support the landing of the navy, Xiubaomei Island Qingxing led 3,000 people out of Kunyang and feinted to attack the fortified city, so as to delay the power and make it impossible to draw troops to support Xianshan Island.

However, what Hidebo didn't expect was that even if he couldn't protect himself, Quan Ji still divided half of his troops to go south to support Xianshan Island, not only that, but the reinforcements were personally led by him, and Gucheng, as the command headquarters, was handed over to the general for defense.

"It seems that Xianshan Island is really the lifeline of fresh soldiers, otherwise Quan Jian would not abandon the solid city. Please allow the lord to allow Weichen to go to support Zuo Matou, and he will definitely be able to capture the fortified city in less than half an hour. "Knowing that the fight on the island Kiyoshi side is in full swing, Fukushima Takayoshi finally couldn't hold it back, and hoped to show his skills as well, after all, after this fight, I don't know how long I have to wait before I can play again.

However, Hideho did not immediately agree to his request, but frowned slightly and paced around the room.

"Gao Ji, don't you think it's a little weird for Quan Ji to do this?" Hideho asked, "As far as I know, there are only 800 people left on Xianshan Island and 1,200 people left in Gucheng, even if all the forces in Gucheng are withdrawn, in the face of our army's strong ships and artillery, they must not be able to support it for too long, and there are still 3,000 troops on the left side to attack in turn, how can he think of drawing half of his troops to support the southern front?" ”

Hearing Xiubao's question, although Gao Ji was at a loss, he still didn't care and said: "No matter what he thinks, either he will conquer Gucheng and lead his troops south, or he will land and wave his army north from Xianshan Island, anyway, Quan Ji will not be able to escape this time." ”

"Can't you escape?" Hideho seemed to think of something, stopped pacing, and stood in the middle of the hall thinking.

"The lord really doesn't have to think about it, as long as the righteous father lands on Xianshan Island, and his subordinates and Zuo Matou go south along Gucheng, they will definitely be able to nail these Koreans to death on the Tongyeong Peninsula, and at that time, unless they wade through Qichuan Liang, even if they don't move the Ming King, they can't do anything."

Gao Ji is still a martial artist after all, only knowing that in the Shingon Sect he believes, the King of Fudo Ming is the main deity of the five Ming kings, the first seat of the eight Ming kings, and the reincarnation of the decree of the Great Ri Rulai, among the five Ming kings who guard the five directions in the southeast, south, and northwest, he is the Ming king who guards the central position, and he is a well-deserved protector of the Dharma. But most of the Koreans believe in the Rinzai sect, and they have almost nothing to do with this protector god, and it seems that in order to be addicted, he really dares to say anything.

Hideho is not a fool either, knowing that he wants to reassure himself, so he can rest assured that he will go into battle to kill the enemy. However, this trick is too obvious, and Xiubao will naturally not be fooled, but a place name mentioned between the lines of Gao Ji's words reminds Xiubao.

"You just mentioned 'Qi Chuanliang', what kind of place is that, why hasn't anyone mentioned it to me?" Xiubo's nerves immediately tensed.

"Your Majesty also heard from Kaemon not long ago, that is, a waterway to the east of Kanshan Island, located between Geoje Island and Qichuan Island, the water area is narrow, there are many talks, and it is not suitable for large warships to sail at all, and because it belongs to the Mashan Sea and is the jurisdiction of the Tokugawa family, I did not inform the lord." Gao Ji replied disappreciatively.

Xiubao slammed his head with a folding fan, and suddenly came to his senses: "Hide from the sky and the sea?!" It's not good, it's a trick! Gao Ji, hurry up and inform Gao Hu that he must send a fleet to Qichuanliang, and he must not let Quan Jian escape while he is in chaos! ”

"Hiding from the world?" Gao Ji was confused and asked: "Lord, you can't take a big ship over there, there is no need to send a ship to blockade it." ”

"It's just that he knew that we would think so, so he dared to take a risk and lead his army south." Hideho unfolded the map, pointed to the Tongying Peninsula and explained: "As I said earlier, no matter how Quan Quan distributes his forces, it is impossible for him to keep this peninsula, so the so-called leading his troops south is just an illusion created by him, and the real purpose is to make us think that he left Gucheng to support Xianshan Island, and we will not think that he wants to go to Qichuanliang to escape by boat." ”

"But the waterway of Qichuanliang is dangerous, and it is not suitable for navigation at all." Gao Ji asked.

"It is precisely because of the danger that our army will neglect to take precautions, and he can have an opportunity." Xiubao raised his head, sighed, and said, "This is to put death and live after." ”

After Xiubao's explanation, Gao Ji finally had some ideas, but he still had some doubts: "If he just ran away, wouldn't he ignore the fresh soldiers of Xianshan Island and Gucheng?" As Marshal Du, how could he do such a thing..."

"Knowing that we can't do it, this is a bitter plan." Xiubao shook his head and said with emotion: "It is precisely because you and I never imagined that he would be so ruthless, so he fell for his trick." If nothing else, the next thing is either 'Golden Cicada Shelling' or 'Darkness Chen Cang'. ”

Although Gao Ji is also familiar with military books, but at the moment compared to Xiu Bao is a small thing, so many schemes Xiu Bao can analyze the head is the Tao, Gao Ji's reverence arises spontaneously, maybe this is the charm of the wise general.

"In addition, you tell Gao Hu to let him go to the isolated island immediately after conquering Xianshan Island, if His Highness Rushui fails to completely annihilate the Korean naval army, it will be the only way for them to retreat west."
