Influenced by the culture of the Central Plains, the Wa Kingdom has been a very superstitious country since ancient times, don't look at them all like outlaws as cunning and murderous, but once it comes to the theory of ghosts and gods, these gangs of people will immediately coax.

The Japanese have gone through many periods in their history, but the only thing they can be proud of is that no one has overthrown the so-called emperor's rule, that is to say, if the first emperor is dug out of the soil and tested for DNA, there will still be a part of the blood relationship with the modern emperor, although this relationship may have been very weak, but it is undeniable that there will be.

As for why this is ......, because the Japanese believe that the first emperor is the son of the so-called Aunt Amaterasu, and as human beings, they cannot replace his heirs, so although in various historical periods, the right to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and the right to support the puppets, it is undeniable that these very aggrieved emperors are the descendants of the first emperor.

This proves the superstitious thoughts of the Japanese people from the side, and of course, there are some more direct proofs, such as the existence of various temple divination shops, all kinds of magical ghost legends, and so on.

Oh, these are all digressions, back to business.

Because those Japanese people couldn't stab the Tang army with knives, they were suddenly frightened, even if they watched those Tang soldiers chop down the knives, they didn't know how to dodge, and in the blink of an eye, there were many people who were cut to the ground.

And at this time, many of those who originally had no weapons also picked up the war knives left by the Japanese people from the ground, although they were smaller, and they were similar to a dagger in their hands, but it was better to have weapons than nothing.

Moreover, Hou Junji gave a death order, if he couldn't defeat this widow, then there was only a dead end waiting for them.

Compared with the old Hou who pulls out a gun and kills people without saying a word, there is no doubt that those Japanese people are easier to deal with, after all, 20,000 against 50,000, and they have the advantage of height and physical strength, it should not be difficult to kill them.

Therefore, as soon as the two sides came into contact, the expeditionary corps relied on their height and strength to directly catch the Japanese by surprise, and by the time the Japanese reacted, they had already lost the opportunity and were mixed with them.

The killing lasted all afternoon, and although the Japanese were fierce, they were still cowardly in the face of the expeditionary legion that they were obviously not wearing armor, but they couldn't cut them to death, and the psychological pressure and physical exertion made them choose to escape.

However, the expeditionary legion, which had suffered a lot of anger in Houjunji, would give them a chance to escape, and they chased after them almost without even thinking about it, and this chase was a whole night, until they were exhausted before they collected their troops and returned to the camp.

And those who were scattered fled in the direction of Osaka in confusion, until they met the eldest brother of Yamabi and his party.

……

After listening carefully to the chaotic statements of the rout, the eldest brother of the mountain back was silent, he clearly realized that their fierce tactics had been seen through by the Tang army, and if they continued to fight the Tang army in this way, what was waiting for them would be a catastrophe.

"Your Royal Highness, mobilize all the troops to fight a decisive battle with the Tang Army, we can't drag it out like this any longer!" The head of the Monobe clan also listened to the statements of those defeated soldiers from beginning to end, and made his own suggestions to the eldest brother king of the mountain back.

"Yes, Prince Palace, any further delay can only boost the prestige of the Tang people, rather than let our warriors be eaten away by them little by little, it is better to fight with them." Soga Ezo also realized that now was not the time to do any more battles, and for the first time, he agreed with the head of the mono tribe.

The eldest brother of the mountain back is not surprised by the performance of the two, in the face of the situation of the death of the country, the little interest between the individual and the family has become unimportant, if the two continue to be entangled at this time, he does not mind killing all these two people first to make an example.

"Your Highness, hurry up and make a decision, if you delay it any longer, I'm afraid that there will be other changes in Pingchengjing, if the Tang people occupy Pingchengjing, when they have a foothold, we are afraid that it will not be easy to drive them down to the sea." The patriarch of the Monobe clan also didn't say anything about Su Izo's statement, but just looked at the mountain back eldest brother Wang who had been silent for a long time and urged.

"At this critical juncture, you can understand the general situation and let go of your prejudices against each other, which shows your loyalty to the country in your hearts, and this king is very relieved!" The eldest brother of the mountain back swept his eyes over the two new subordinates who had a great enmity of life and death, nodded and said approvingly.

"Your Highness, things between ministers and others are trivial matters after all, and when we drive the Tang people into the sea, we will continue to fight to death!" The patriarch of the Monobe clan is also an old traitor, and he heard from the words of the eldest brother of the mountain, that he wanted to mediate the relationship between his family and the Su I clan, and opened his mouth in advance to block the rest of his words.

The elder brother of the mountain, Wang Jianwubu, said in a firm tone, and then looked at the look of disdain on Su Izo's face, he knew that his plan was impossible to come true, so he sighed and said: "Since this is the case, forget it, you each send people back to recruit people to come over, and we will fight to the death with the Tang army outside Pingcheng Jing!" ”

"Wow!" The patriarch of the mono tribe and Soga Ezo each turned to leave, glanced at each other at the entrance of the makeshift tent, and turned away.

……

And just when the Japanese people mobilized men and horses to prepare for a decisive battle with the Tang army, Hou Junji, the old goods, had already brought more than 100,000 troops to Pingchengjing again, and set up a formation in the south of the city, and all kinds of new equipment covered every open space outside the city.

Li You, Li Zhen, Songtsen Gampo and others gathered around the old man, all with serious expressions, like students who had just walked out of school.

"Boys, watch carefully, the old man will teach you another lesson today." The old man of Hou Junji had just commanded a victory yesterday, and when he was full of ambition, he looked at the figures scattered in the head of the Pingcheng capital in the distance, and said proudly.

"Uncle Hou, please!" Li You also wanted to know how the Hou Jun Assembly would capture the Japanese fortified city in front of him, and as he spoke, he took a telescope from his guards.

"Look!" Hou Junji smiled and waved his hand at the herald beside him.

The herald seemed to have received some orders in advance, and he didn't need to say more, but when he saw him waving his hand, he immediately ran out and waved a command flag.

"Uncle Hou, what does this river reclamation mean?" Li You has been in the Feifeng Army for two years, and he has also learned flag language and the like, and even because he didn't learn well, he was punished by Song Hei and ran away for I don't know how many laps, so the herald's order flag only waved a few times, and he had already seen the way out of the door, and couldn't help but ask.
