Chapter 347: Trapped
Hou Yingjie smiled: "You boys, you can't help it anymore." Well, you leave half of the people, guard the division headquarters, and the rest go. ”
Tian Hao, the commander of the guard battalion, was very happy and hurriedly took people there.
The officers and men of the 6th Division looted on the island of Kyushu, and they were all elated.
That night, Tian Hao, the commander of the guard battalion, took several Japanese slave women to Hou Yingjie's temporary office.
Tian Hao said: "Commander, these are the women of the Tanaka family, the biggest nobleman on Kyushu Island, and my subordinates specially honor you." ”
Hou Yingjie saw that these women had white and delicate skin, and they looked like women from large families, and they also looked good. He pointed to the best-looking woman and said, "This is for my father-in-law."
Leave the tall one for me, and you can give the rest to Admiral Wang of the Navy. ”
At night, Hou Yingjie fought for half a night and fell asleep deeply.
"Divisional Commander, Divisional Commander." In the early morning, Hou Yingjie was woken up by Tian Hao, and he asked dissatisfiedly, "Is there something wrong?" ”
Tian Hao said: "Admiral Wang has an urgent military situation. ”
Hou Yingjie felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly got dressed and went out.
The person who came was a liaison officer of the navy, and when he saw Hou Yingjie, he said: "Commander Hou, the situation is like this......
It turned out that before the landing on the Japanese archipelago this time, Admiral Wang Baosheng proposed that the navy should be concentrated, and the Japanese navy should be annihilated first, and then the landing should be carried out.
The commander-in-chief in charge of this combat operation was Niu Jinda, commander of the DPRK Military District, who disagreed with this opinion. His reason was that the Tang army only had to send the Goguryeo people up, and it had nothing to do with the Tang Dynasty, and he couldn't do anything for the Goguryeo people.
Silla and Baekje also meant the same thing, and Wang Baosheng had no choice but to give up.
Quan Gai Suwen's opinion is the same as Wang Baosheng's, but he is the prime minister of the dead country, and he is not qualified to make any more requests, so he has to make a desperate bet on this.
After the coalition navy laid down the Goguryeo, they only stayed here for a few days because there was still a large amount of supplies to be unloaded. The coalition army also had time to loot and make a fortune.
After all, the coalition forces are not a single force, and their actions are very coordinated.
Originally, the three families had agreed that after all the Goguryeo supplies were unloaded, the three families would leave together.
As a result, the Silla people unloaded some of the supplies, loaded the looted supplies and women onto the ship, and left ahead of schedule. They were ready to hurry up and make another run.
The thoughts of the Baekje people were the same as those of the Silla people, and in this way, more than half of the fleets of Silla and Baekje had left.
In the second half of the night, the Japanese fleet came to attack, and after the engagement, a large number of warships came to besiege it, totaling nearly 2,000 ships.
Among the fleet led by Wang Baosheng, there were 550 warships of the Tang Army, and the rest were the Goguryeo Navy that had just been absorbed.
Soon after the war began, the navies of Silla and Baekje were unable to resist, and then the original Goguryeo navy also collapsed, leaving only the Tang navy and the Uno navy at war.
Wang Baosheng sent someone to inform Hou Yingjie to evacuate urgently.
Hou Yingjie was blind now, and he originally planned to evacuate in two days, so the troops were relatively scattered and could not be gathered for a while.
Hou Yingjie ordered to send a large number of signal troops to inform all ministries to abandon all captured materials and women and immediately move closer here. The troops who are already here, immediately get on board.
By 10 a.m., there were more than 5,000 troops on board, more than 3,000 waiting to board, and 7,000 had not arrived.
At this moment, the naval liaison officer came over again, and he said eagerly: "Commander Hou, General Wang asked me to inform you that you can only hold on for another half an hour." By the time the Navy had to leave. ”
Hou Yingjie had no choice but to order the waiting troops to hurry up and get on the ship.
In the blink of an eye, half an hour had passed. At this time, the naval flagship sent a signal to evacuate.
Hou Yingjie said to the chief of staff: "You are responsible for bringing back the troops that have already boarded the ship." ”
The chief of staff asked, "Division commander, what are you going to do?" ”
Hou Yingjie said: "There are still so many troops that have not been on the ship, I must stay." ”
The chief of staff still wanted to persuade, but Hou Yingjie said decisively: "This is an order, carry it out." With that, he got out of the boat. Tian Hao, the commander of the guard battalion, followed.
The navy left, and Hou Yingjie and 8,000 Tang troops were stranded on the island of Kyushu.
Soon, the generals of Silla and Baekje also came over, and their situation was similar, with Silla leaving 3,000 men and Baekje 4,000 men.
Hou Yingjie said: "Two generals, we are now stranded on the island, and it is difficult to say when the navy will be able to pick us up." Therefore, we must now be in this together. ”
The generals of Silla and Baekje, who are also having a headache now, said that they would obey Hou Yingjie's command.
Hou Yingjie said: "We must be prepared to persist for a long time, so the first thing to do now is to stock up on a large number of supplies. As he spoke, he turned his mouth toward Nunu by the sea.
The two generals understood what he meant, and he was fighting the Goguryeo people's idea of supplies.
The Goguryeo people did not expect this to happen, and the troops left behind were not many, only more than 5,000 people. Hou Yingjie commanded the coalition forces to surround the Goguryeo. But it didn't happen right away.
Before coming, several generals of the coalition army discussed that at present, the Goguryeo people are their own allies, and it is not wise to fall out with the Goguryeo people at this time.
The general of the Goguryeo people, seeing that the coalition forces did not move, also guessed their thoughts, so everyone sat down to negotiate together.
In the end, everyone agreed to guard the supplies together, digging trenches near the beach and building forts while waiting for rescue from the Korean Peninsula.
The materials transported with the ship this time were the consumption of 100,000 Goguryeo people for a month, although they were not all unloaded, but the amount was quite amazing, which reassured Hou Yingjie and others, thinking that they could hold on until the arrival of rescue.
Besides, Izumi Gai Suwen led a large army to sweep across the island of Kyushu and quickly capture most of Kyushu.
Quangai Suwen was very clear-headed, and he knew that he had to quickly defeat the regime of the Japanese slave state, otherwise he would not be able to withstand the consumption of his own men and horses in the face of organized resistance.
Therefore, he left some personnel on Kyushu Island to manage, and concentrated his main force and went straight to Nara, the capital of the Japanese slave country.
At this time, he heard the news that the coalition navy was forced to retreat, and he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart: the Japanese slave state was not as weak as he thought.
It turned out that the situation that Quangai Suwen had grasped was not without basis. It is true that the Japanese slave country only has a standing army of 50,000 men and a navy of 10,000 people, and its equipment is relatively backward.
Since the defeat of Goguryeo, the news that Izumi Gae Suwen was preparing to attack the Useru kingdom reached the ears of the king of the Uno kingdom, Cheonji, who, after weighing the strength of the Uzun kingdom, thought that it would be difficult to resist the army of Goguryeo with his current strength.
In order to avoid being annexed by the Goguryeo, he sent envoys to inform the various vassal states of the imminent invasion of the Goguryeo people, inviting them to come and discuss countermeasures.
