After the collapse of Hiroshima on land, the war at sea was also coming to an end, and in the end, only a dozen sampans escaped from the encirclement, and less than 10,000 Japanese on land escaped back to Hiroshima Castle.

Therefore, in the post-war summary, everyone finally understood that a perfect battle plan is not as important as an improvisable general, and excellent generals also need excellent soldiers, so in the final analysis, war is still a competition of soldiers.

However, this time Gan Xingtai made a review of the mistakes of the sailors, and during the war in the future, sentry scouts should be arranged on the periphery, and there was also the fact that the warships were not allowed to drop their sails at will on the battlefield, and the supply and transport ships could not completely lower their sails.

This time a total of three troop carriers were lost, but fortunately, the ship was abandoned in time and did not cause unnecessary casualties, which also gave Zhang San a lesson, this period of time was too smooth for the Japanese war, so that Zhang San did not take the Japanese country in his eyes for a while, this incident is definitely a classic sneak attack war, but the Japanese did not scruple to know the form of the enemy and us, otherwise Zhang San may suffer heavy losses.

However, the strategic goal was finally achieved in a vague way, the remnants of the Hiroshima Army were besieged in the city, and now they didn't even need heavy weapons, Zhang San arranged ten bed crossbows to cooperate with the army to besiege it, and the troops also set up a camp of 50,000 people. The troops disembarked during the day and boarded at night, and then transported back to Zhenwei Island for repairs, and half of the warships were withdrawn, in short, it looked as if they had suffered heavy losses.

Hiroshima is three days away from Kyoto, and when the Hiroshima Army delivered the report along with the letter asking for help, the Emperor was excited to see the Hiroshima Army's report, but when he learned that his 40,000 troops were defeated by the other party's 30,000, he was also worried.

After deliberation among the ministers, it was decided to send 180,000 troops to encircle and annihilate the pirates. Because Kyoto is far from the sea, pirates did not dare to land, and at the same time, they could call back troops from other regions to help.

Two days after the departure of the Japanese army in Kyoto, Zhang San sent a fleet to land in Kyoto Bay, and after occupying it, he began to transport cavalry ashore to attack Kyoto.

The cavalry is divided into four battalions, five hundred cavalry for a battalion, the four battalion commanders are Zhao Yunlong, Pang Wanchun, Luan Tingyu and Shi Bao, among which Shi Bao as a southerner has a good talent for receiving cavalry, which is very surprising, and Pang Wanchun is training a new type of archer cavalry.

The four of them, armed with cavalry and a large number of fire oil bombs, began to come down the avenue to the city of Kyoto, and began to set fire to the outside of Kyoto City, some of whom had strong arms. Relying on the speed of the horse, he threw the oil bottle into Kyoto Castle.

Kyoto was now only 10,000 guards, so he did not dare to go out of the city to meet the battle, and when he learned that there were more enemies landing in the bay, the Emperor was immediately frightened and ordered his troops to come back.

So when the main force of the Wa Kingdom finally reached the castle of Hiroshima, they received an urgent order from the Wa Emperor in Kyoto, and although everyone knew that the opportunity was rare now, no one dared to risk the crime of losing the emperor, so they had to rush back to help.

In the territory of the enemy country, Zhang San did not expect to fight any beautiful ambush warfare, but bullied the Japanese army after six days of marching, and the people were sleepy and tired, and his physical strength was almost exhausted, and then the Ryukyu army killed him with leisure.

Although Zhang San now only has 45,000 marines and 45,000 troops in his hands, Zhang San can also draw 300 men from each ship to form a force of 25,000 men, because the marines on these ships have also received land combat training.

In this way, 60,000 men were enough to deal with the tired soldiers of the other side, and after the Kyoto Defenders returned to the defense, Hiroshima Prefecture was captured within an hour, and after leaving the necessary personnel to clean up the battlefield, the main force of 10,000 followed the Kyoto Defenders from the rear.

Of course, Zhang San has transferred another 20,000 marines from Ryukyu in order to prevent accidents, which is all the family of Ryukyu, but these marines are relatively slow to assemble because of the dispersion of defense, although Zhang San strictly ordered that they must arrive the day before the war, but whether they can get to Zhang San really doesn't know.

Everything went into the calm before the storm, except for the cavalry still roaming around Kyoto, and a steady stream of troops from the docks of Kyoto Bay drove ashore. Two days later, the main force of the Japanese army was still a day's way from Kyoto, and there was no news of the reinforcements that Zhang San was waiting for.

In desperation, Zhang San had to count on the 10,000 people chased by Hiroshima to have an effect, and the reinforcements of the Japanese State also knew that there was a pirate army in front of them to intercept it, and there were only 50,000 or 60,000 people, which made the Japanese people also have the idea of finishing their work in one battle.

The beginning of the war started with the fire that ignited in the city of Kyoto, and the reinforcements of the Japanese country were not stupid, and they also knew that their army was exhausted, so they planned to repair the day in the battle, but how could Zhang San give him this opportunity.

All the army siege ballistae were arranged under the city of Kyoto, and fire oil bombs were fired into the city, and for a while, the city of Kyoto was on fire, and the urging documents of the emperor were delivered one after another.

The Japanese reinforcements finally decided to rely on their numerical superiority to break through the Ryukyu army's defenses. The war between the two sides began to enter the formal opening stage, first of all, the Japanese army was divided into five corps and arranged in a circle, the logistics were placed in the middle, the left and right flanks and the central army were 10,000 for defense, and the rear army was 30,000 ready to intercept the pursuing Hiroshima enemy.

The remaining 120,000 were all concentrated at the front, divided into six military formations and began a full-scale assault. This kind of war of large corps is not as imagined that the two sides will attack each other in a row, but will engage the enemy one by one, find the weak links of the other side, and try to achieve the task of breaking the enemy's entire defense line by defeating one of them.

Just like now, the Japanese army formed six military formations, one for the Chinese army and the reserve behind, and the remaining five were arranged into five battle formations separated by a mile to attack forward, and the Japanese army just wanted to rely on the large number of people to form an encirclement, if the Ryukyu army was scattered to meet the attack, then each department would fight more and less, and if the siege of a regiment of defense, then the so-called defense line would be broken.

If the Ryukyu Army shrinks its defenses, as long as one or two of them can bypass the defense line and enter Kyoto, then Kyoto will be stable, and the rest is to surround the opponent and fight slowly, so this five-line parallel tactic is not very clever but it is indeed a good idea.

And Zhang San's side is definitely going to meet the attack, the newly formed battalion of marines on the ship may be a little less tolerant of this kind of positional warfare, so Zhang San's side divided into five battalions, each of which arranged two new battalions, three army battalions and three marine battalions.

Each team of 8,000 men dealt with the opponent's 20,000, Zhang San could only believe that his soldiers could hold on, and Zhang San kept 20,000 men in his hands as a general reserve to reinforce or to pursue when the enemy retreated.

Zhang San did not hope to break through quickly on the frontal battlefield, as long as he exhausted the physical strength of the Japanese army on the opposite side, the balance of victory in the war would tilt towards him, but it was a pity that the number of people after the Japanese army was too large, and it was estimated that it would be difficult for the Hiroshima reinforcements to break through quickly for a while.

Just when Zhang San was worried, the herald rushed to report that 15,000 reinforcements from the Ryukyus had arrived off Kyoto Bay and were entering the bay! Zhang San happily said three good words in a row, and the big thing was decided!
