Chapter 303: Attacking the Wa Kingdom
Jin Yuxin was overjoyed and hurriedly knelt down to thank him, Zhang Shigui hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and then asked people to place Jin Deshan well. Jin Yuxin, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, saw that everything was arranged, so he said goodbye and left.
Jang Shigui didn't stay in Silla for long, and finalized a plan with King Jinpyeong to attack Baekje, so he led his team to leave Silla, and of course there was an extra Princess Jindeman in the team when he left.
Zhang Shigui's team galloped all the way to Bukhansan Mountain, after which they could return to Pyongyang and come to the area controlled by the Great Demon Kingdom; But as soon as they reached the mountain pass, they heard an arrow on the mountain, and then more than 3,000 minions blocked the way.
Zhang Shigui looked at the other side and laughed: "No wonder Mimuro can control the power of Silla; Sure enough, a daring guy. Even the army of our Great Demon Kingdom dared to catastrophe!
He may not have seen us make a move, but it was our kindness that made her not know what reverence was! Come! Vertical guns! Charge! ”
The 300 cavalry in Zhang Shigui's hands were configured according to the equipment of the Xuanjia Army; As soon as they heard the command, "Whew! The mask on his face was put down, and then "Boom!" With a loud bang, a two-foot-long spear was erected.
On the other side was the person sent by Mimuro to intercept and kill Jindeman, and the general at the head was named Lian Sheng; He didn't want to offend these Han people too much; So disguised as bandits to rob.
In his opinion, his army was ten times that of these Han Chinese, and they should quickly surrender, and then rob Kindman himself and go back to the art room.
Who knew that the guy on the other side didn't even say a word, and with a bang, he set up an attack formation, and then began to slowly approach forward; They are getting faster and more oppressive.
Lian Sheng Daqi almost forgot what to say, and when he reacted, his opponent was already approaching, and launched a rapid charge.
"Shoot! Shoot! Lian Sheng shouted with a wave of the big knife in his hand. His men hurriedly picked up their bows and arrows and began to shoot; However, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves made these people unstable, and many of them shot out without aiming as soon as they let go, and the arrows did not know where they flew, and some were so frightened that they couldn't even hold their bows and arrows, and they didn't complete the shooting action at all.
In the end, only a few sharp arrows were fired into the charging ironclad ranks, but nothing else did anything but a clanging sound.
The speed of the heavy cavalry's impact was no less slow, and there was no room for them to adjust their formation and fire a second time, and the long cavalry spears had already penetrated their chests.
There was a terrible howl on the battlefield, this was simply a slaughtering Shura field. Zhang Shigui rode the spotted leopard and came to Lian Sheng's front, and without saying a word, he was distracted by the distraction of the halberd in his hand.
Lian Sheng hurriedly parried the big knife in his hand, but when there was a bang, his big knife did not block the advance of the halberd at all; This stabbed him hard into his lower abdomen.
"But that's it!" Zhang Shigui picked Lian Sheng up with both hands, and then fell heavily to the ground. Those Silla soldiers had long been frightened by the killing frenzy, and when they saw that their leader had been killed, they turned around and ran away without saying a word.
Zhang Shigui sneered and ordered the soldiers to cut off the heads of these people, hang them from trees, and then the army crossed the Bukhan Mountains and returned to Pyongyang.
Meimuro has been waiting for Lian Sheng's good news, and the person who sent to inquire came back to say that Lian Sheng has been killed, and hundreds of human heads are hanging on the trees in the mountain pass, and there is no trace of the army of the Great Demon Kingdom at all.
Mimuro was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat, deeply regretting her recklessness, she hurriedly asked people to clean up the scene, and never dared to provoke again.
Cheng Zhijie got a report from Zhang Shigui, saying that the princess of Silla, Jindeman, whom he controlled, would be a trump card for the Great Demon Kingdom to plot against Silla after destroying Baekje and Goguryeo.
Lao Cheng almost didn't bite his tongue off, who is Jindeman? the later Queen Deman, the first queen in Korean history; It is a character who unified the peninsula and the Tang Dynasty and ruled the river! Although she is known for her benevolence, it does not mean that she can be used casually.
Although Cheng Zhijie agreed to Zhang Shigui's plan, he also told him his worries; Let him be extremely careful about this Jindeman next to him, so as not to be bought by others and not know.
Just finished dealing with Jindeman's affairs, and Zhang Ding's good news also came back. They eliminated the main force of the Japanese navy at the mouth of the Baijiang River outside Zhouliu, and then went to attack the Japanese state, wanting to teach these dwarfs a good lesson.
Their army soon reached Jiujin, the base camp of the Japanese navy, where 10,000 troops were stationed.
The troops in front were all wiped out, and there was no news here, and the defense was still very loose. Zhang Ding led people to storm Jiujin and completely destroy it. One hundred and ten warships in the harbor were destroyed, and most of the more than 10,000 defenders suffered casualties; The Great General of the Realm Department and the Deputy General of Ho Jichen were beheaded.
Zhang Ding took advantage of the situation to attack and completely occupied Jiujin; The news soon spread to Toyouragu Palace in the capital Fujiwara-kyo Palace, where Emperor Suiko was currently in power, with Soga Mako and Tsukito Oko.
When Emperor Suiko heard that someone had occupied Kyutsu, he was furious and ordered Soga Ezo, the son of Soga Mako, to be the general, and the prince of Laimu and Ueno Maoji to lead an army of 25,000 to conquer Zhang Ding.
Zhang Ding saw that these guys were wearing colorful clothes, and before the battle, he prayed to the Buddhist statue of the Four Heavenly Kings carved from white glue wood for victory; I can't help but be a little funny.
These people are generally relatively short, and they are about a head apart from the Central Plains. Their armor is also relatively backward, only the generals use steel armor, and most of the soldiers are bamboo armor made of bamboo chips.
Zhang Ding rushed up when he saw them swarming, without even a little discipline. I can't help but secretly laugh, what a group of uncivilized barbarians.
In fact, at this time, Japan was still called Wakoku, and there was no writing. However, he had to admire their ability to learn, and a few decades later, he sent the Tang envoy Abe Zhongmaro to bring back writing and advanced culture from the Central Plains.
Prince Shotoku, who was later the Prince of Shotoku, created the "Twelve Orders of the Crown" and the "Seventeenth Article of the Constitution" based on the reform of the Central Plains culture and Buddhist culture, and it was not until a hundred years later that they came to the Japanese name.
"Bow and arrow!" Zhang Dingcai didn't think about this, in his eyes, the lower the enemy's strength, the better, he raised his hand and fell down fiercely, and a black cloud swept by. The rudimentary bamboo armor's defense against the Great Demon Kingdom's strong bow and crossbow is almost zero; These bamboo pieces were also cracked when they were shot, and then stabbed into the body fiercely.
Screaming and wailing became the main theme of the battlefield, and those charging Japanese soldiers could not rush forward at all and were planted on the way to charge. But these guys don't know if they are not afraid of death, or if they are a tendon, and they are still rushing over like a tide, and then lying on the ground on top of each other; Blood stained the earth red.
Zhang Ding raised his hand, and the dense bows and arrows finally stopped; Then he led an army of 5,000 sailors to rush over. Each of these sailors has a horizontal knife, and the sword flashes between the flashes; Those bamboo armors were as fragile as paper, and even the human blades were waved in two.
The prince shouted: "Heavenly King bless!" "Then he rushed up with men;" While! His broadsword was broken by Zhang Ding's golden-backed broadsword, and then Zhang Ding kicked him so much that he vomited blood, and fell upside down; Zhang Ding followed up and was about to split him into two sections.
Ueno Maoji rushed up from behind as soon as he saw that it was not good, and the spear in his hand was distracted and stabbed. Zhang Ding gave up the prince of Laimu, and the big knife in his hand was smooth, and he opened the spear of Shangye Maoerde; Then he bullied into his side, and slashed Ueno Maoji with a knife in his hand.
Zhang Ding went to find the prince again, and he had already retreated to the team under the leadership of his personal guards; Those guards rushed up like mad dogs, making Zhang Ding unable to free his hands for a while.
Wang Ying took 3,000 men around the battlefield and came back from behind. In this two attacks, the army of the Japanese State resisted more than once, and retreated while fighting under the leadership of Su I Ezo.
Zhang Ding and Wang Ying chased and killed more than ten thousand of the enemy, and found that their formation still showed no signs of rout, and they couldn't help but be secretly surprised. Seeing that they had retreated into a mountain, Zhang Ding was afraid of being ambushed, so he stopped the pursuit and retreated to Jiujin.
When Soga Ezo saw that the enemy had stopped attacking, he almost lost his army, and found that the 25,000-strong army had almost lost half of it; I couldn't help but feel sad from my heart, and I almost cried bitterly.
The prince coughed violently a few times, feeling that his internal organs were churning, and he said to Su Izo: "General, the enemy is ferocious, let's go back and report to His Majesty the Emperor, and make a decision!" ”
Soga Ezo didn't have an idea for a while, so he agreed to the suggestion of the prince of Kurumi, and they led the army back to Toyoura Palace in Fujiwara-kyo to ask to see Emperor Suiko.
The emperor was at a loss for a moment after hearing their report, and the prince suggested that the Sui envoy Ono be be summoned to ask about the situation.
This Ono girl's Chinese name is Su Yingao, and she has twice sent envoys to the Sui Dynasty, but because of the sentence in the national book: The Son of Heaven at sunrise is not harmed by the Son of Heaven on the day of the book, which made Emperor Sui Zhao angry.
Fortunately, Emperor Yang of Sui was fighting for Goguryeo at that time, and he didn't want to make too many enemies without blaming him. Ono Meizi brought back a large number of books from the Central Plains, creating a precedent for the Japanese state to send envoys to study abroad. In the words of Japanese historians, through this kind of exchange, Japan greedily absorbed the advanced civilizations of Korea and China like a baby seeking breast milk, and thus entered the stage of civilization from the stage of barbarism.
Ono Meiko was blamed by the emperor for losing the Sui lord's credentials, and she escaped thanks to the guarantee of the prince of the stable, and is currently being recruited by the prince of the stable to study the system of the Sui Dynasty with him and prepare for the reform.
Hearing the summons, he hurried to the Fengpu Palace to meet Emperor Suiko. Emperor Suiko asked Soga Ezo and Prince Kurumi to tell the story of the battle.
