Chapter 628: Kutoulon's Persuasion
The Japanese army's painstakingly managed fortifications were useless and abandoned, and Liu Shun's navy and Zhang Shijie's marines landed head-on at Hakata Bay without any hindrance.
After landing, the Marines quickly dismantled a fortification and sent a large number of weapons and supplies and horses ashore, which further accelerated the speed of Cheng Yue's army reorganization.
Cheng Yue woke up, very comfortable, had breakfast, took Wan Ze and Nang Jiazhen's hands, and walked around the Honglu Pavilion with the concubines. The wives and concubines did not have any tension in the war, and they played hide and seek, fed fish, picked flowers, and fluttered butterflies in the huge Honglu Pavilion, and the Honglu Pavilion became a paradise in the battlefield for a while.
Cheng Yue came back in a circle, and all the generals came to report the results, Cheng Yue roughly read it and praised it again and again. Seeing that their eyes were red, he said with a smile: "You all did a good job last night, go back and rest for a while, let Xin Du and Xiao Zhen take over from you, I expect the encirclement to be completed in about two days, and then it will be a good opportunity for you to show your talents." ”
All the generals claimed that it was, but no one shouted hard work.
Jin Xin stepped forward and knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Cheng Yue and said: "Lord Wang, the Japanese general who did not kill the opponent at the end is ashamed of the entrustment of Lord Du, and I hereby ask the prince for his guilt." ”
Cheng Yue had already learned about this from others, and said with a smile: "Your opponent's name is Otomo Laitai, he is a famous general in Kyushu, and his martial arts and experience are first-class, and you can fight against him without falling behind, which is enough to be gratifying, and there is no need to ask for guilt." ”
Jin Xin said firmly: "The last general must kill this person in the battle array, otherwise what face will there be to see the prince?!" ”
Cheng Yue smiled and waved his hand, and said, "If you can meet him, kill him." I can't help it. Don't be so obsessed. ”
Jin Xin was stunned. Scratching his head wryly, he stepped aside.
Cheng Yue said: "In the next two days, you have to take turns attacking from time to time and make it look like you want to break through the encirclement." Only in this way will the Japanese not be suspicious of our intentions and will be able to firmly pin down their remaining 110,000 troops around Mt. Akasaka. ”
Lu Wenhuan laughed and said: "This battle was fought easily, and the Japanese were completely played by the prince!" Lu has been a general for more than 20 years. It's the first time I've played so comfortably. ”
Cheng Yue smiled faintly: "With more than 200,000 troops of my Song, Yuan, and Goryeo alliances, I can't take a small country like Japan, that's ridiculous." Okay, let's go to sleep last night's night battle, Xindu, Hong Chaqiu, Liu Fuheng, Jin Fangqing, Pu Qiu, Jin Zhouding, Jin Xin, Han Xiyu, Ma Fu, and Donar each lead a thousand people to attack, step by step, not rash, to ten miles, encounter a big obstacle, you can return to defense at any time. ”
The generals arose and took the command. Only Tuhuan and Mrs. Xu were left at the scene.
Tuohuan is a prince, of course, he can't go to the battlefield casually. Mrs. Xu was in a hurry, but when she saw Cheng Yue's face, she didn't dare to ask for more words, so she had to desperately show Cheng Yue with her eyes.
Cheng Yue smiled: "What kind of eyes are you making at me?" Stay by my side obediently, don't even think about going anywhere, I will naturally call you when I want you to go into battle. ”
Mrs. Xu said hurriedly: "Chen Hangyan is resting, and the concubine naturally has to replace him." ”
Cheng Yue smiled: "I didn't expect to defeat the Japanese in one fell swoop, what did I send you to attack?" In the past two days, you and Chen Hangyan have to recuperate, waiting for the decisive battle in two days, are you still afraid that the battle will not be fought? ”
Mrs. Xu had no choice but to retreat. When he was going out, he met Kutolon, and when he saw that she was a little unhappy, he asked her what was wrong.
Mrs. Xu snorted angrily: "Princess, the prince just refuses to let me go to the battlefield, everyone else goes up, just because I am a woman, he never lets me go." ”
Ku Toulon smiled slightly and said, "Didn't I go too, and there is also Nangjiazhen." Besides, when did the prince look down on a woman? Don't be presumptuous. ”
Mrs. Xu said: "I know that the prince wants to protect me more, but how can I be taken care of?" Now that he is under the command of the prince, he should make more meritorious contributions to the prince. ”
Ku Toulon smiled: "You don't just think about this, but also think more for the prince." Your martial arts skills are extremely high, once you go to the battlefield, you may have more achievements than the generals under the prince, if this is the case, where do you let those generals put their faces? In their frustration, they are likely to make mistakes. The prince always has a comprehensive consideration when he does things, what you are asked to do and what you don't want to do, there is a reason for him, do you understand? ”
Mrs. Xu suddenly realized, took a deep look at Kutoulon, and said gratefully: "Thank you princess for your enlightenment, it's ridiculous that I have always only thought about myself, and I didn't think much about the prince, I am really ashamed." ”
Hu Toulon smiled: "These words are actually what the prince taught me before. I am young, and from time to time I also want to curry favor in front of the prince and make more meritorious contributions to the prince, for fear that the prince will not like me, and I was in a hurry to let the prince marry me. The prince saw that I was too anxious, so he went to me and said similar things to me, and there was also the difficulty of not marrying me immediately, so I understood the prince's considerations. In the future, whatever the prince says, I just have to do it. If you don't understand, just think about it on the side, come and go, you can learn a lot from the prince, and people have grown up. ”
Mrs. Xu was very excited when she saw that Toulon had nothing to hide from her, and said: "The princess told the concubine frankly, and the concubine thanked the princess for her advice, and asked the princess to mention more in the future!" ”
Ku Toulon smiled: "What's this, although I am younger than you, but we don't fight opponents and friends who don't know each other, it's a pity that you are married, otherwise how good it would be for us to serve the prince together." ”
Mrs. Xu's pretty face turned red all of a sudden, and she shook her head and said, "Don't be joking, the princess is still able to be told by my father-in-law." ”
Hu Toulon smiled: "Lord Xu is also a young hero, can you still not afford a little joke?" I'm going to help carry something, are you going to go? ”
Mrs. Xu smiled: "Anyway, it's okay, let's go together." ”
The two girls talked and laughed all the way, speculated, and cherished each other even more.
The generals of Goryeo, Mafu and Donar were ordered to come out and were eager to try. Especially Mafu and Donal, Cheng Yue gave them a chance, of course they had to take advantage of it.
The generals of Goryeo still led the people of the headquarters, and those who were insufficient were supplemented from the Yuan army. Ma Fu and Donar could not use Cheng Yue's escorts, but selected 2,000 men and horses from the three generals of the Lu clan to take with them.
The generals rushed out of the defensive line, two by two, in front of each other, and advanced along the roads.
At this time, in a hidden corner more than twenty miles away from Cheng Yue, the letter written by Shimazu Hisashi to Shimazu Hisaka was also delivered to him by Kikuchi Takebo. (To be continued.) )
