Section 90: The enemy is outnumbered
Section 90: The enemy is outnumbered
Baekje is not mine alone, it is mainly from Yamato Province, it belongs to His Majesty the Emperor and the Shogun, and it is also your homeland. - Fuyufeng
That's why I like you so much as the king of Baekje, and the loyal dog will never betray its owner. - Mao Ye Zhizi
Command the whole army, set off in a concentrated manner, I will take the lead and destroy this thousand barbarians. - Li Jinghan
The capital city of Baekje was breached by the Tang and Xin coalition forces, and Yoo In-rail was left behind to defend the capital city of Baekje Sihyeon, together with Kim In-tae, the young son of King Kim Chunqiu of Silla.
However, Baekje's relict retainer Fukunobu and the monk Dochen stayed in the fortress to welcome the return of Buyeo Feng, who was a hostage in Japan as the fifth son of the 31st king of Baekje. The Japanese general Mao Ye led 13,000 Japanese troops to send Buyeofeng to Baekje and helped Baekje and the Tang Dynasty to become enemies.
Less than two months after the Japanese army landed on the Korean Peninsula, the Japanese army led by Hiroko Mono captured three castles in Silla one after another.
Xiao Mao Zhi looked at Fuyu Feng, who had just arrived at the captured city, and said, "King Silla looks pretty good." ”
Fuyu Feng did not have as many men and horses as the Japanese army now, so he had to bow slightly and replied: "General Duotuo, your blessing." ”
"But also, Baekje is your hometown that you haven't been back to for a long time, and you're happier than anyone else to return to your hometown, aren't you?"
"No, General, how could I think that? Baekje is not mine alone, it is mainly from Yamato Province, it belongs to His Majesty the Emperor and the Shogun, and it is also your homeland. ”
"Ha, ha, ha." Mao Ye laughed triumphantly.
After laughing to a halt, Mono said, "That's why I like you so much as the king of Baekje, and the loyal dog will never betray the owner who raised it, and I hope that the people of Samhan will be like you." ”
"Yes, as it should be."
"King Baekje."
"Yes, Shogun."
"Now that our army is going to attack the next Yangxing City, you can send the Baekje army to lead the way."
"Yes, General."
"Order the whole army to board the ship." Mao Ye ordered.
With the Baekje army, who was familiar with the terrain, led the way, the Japanese army, who was not afraid of death, was like a bamboo, and captured two more cities in Silla.
The Silla kingdom was already small, and in order to defend Goguryeo, the main forces were concentrated on the northern border, and the Silla army was caught off guard by the Japanese hundred coalition forces that came from the south.
The generals of the Silla army hurriedly wrote an urgent letter to King Kim Chunqiu.
Jin Chunqiu read the report and said angrily: "With thousands of Japanese troops, we can't resist it?" ”
Silla Left Minister Wen Junlie said: "Your Majesty, the old minister is extremely indignant that the thieves occupy my city and kill my people, but the old minister is not worried about this. ”
"Hey, what is Wen Aiqing worried about?"
"Lao Chen is worried that the naval army in the Liangzhou area is weak because of its lack of training, which caused the Japanese army to invade our country like no one."
"And what do you mean?"
"Lao Chen suggested sending a powerful general to recover the lost territory, and second, to do a good job in the training of the naval army in the Liangzhou area to strengthen the combat strength."
"Who's suitable?"
"The Governor of the Navy Army, Park Hyuk, should be responsible for this."
"Okay, immediately order Pu He to take 9,000 sailors to Liangzhou, and at the same time ask the Tang Heavenly Army to help me recover the city."
After a pause, Xiao Jin continued to say to Lao Wen: "In addition, the people's will is also very important, when the lost land is recovered, Zuo Xiang will also go to Liangzhou to comfort the people, the widow will rely on you, do your best." ”
In Luocheng in Liangzhou, Zheng Ruli, a native of Silla, and his confidant Kim Sam-jung were talking in secret.
"We can't let Silla be ruled in the hands of incompetent emperors and ministers. ”
Jin Sanzhong asked: "Sect Master, what was written in the secret letter from the imperial court just now?" ”
"Jin Chunqiu wanted to gather an army to resist the thieves, but the imperial court did not have enough troops. What can they do? It is impossible to turn the people into an army in a few days, and the Kim dynasty should have prepared for defense a long time ago, so gather the brethren immediately. ”
"Yes."
Mobilizing the 1,000-strong congregation, Chung said: "The thieves invaded our southern cities of Silla and slaughtered many innocent people, but the incompetent kings and mediocre ministers had long been immoral, and now the fate of Silla is in our own hands. ”
In just three days, Zheng Ruli gathered an armed congregation of more than 7,000 people.
Liu Renliang summoned Wei Hong and Zhuang Yu to hold a small three-person military meeting.
Ren Orbit: "The enemy has been so quiet lately. ”
Xiao Wei said: "It should be that our defense is too good, and the enemy does not dare to come at all." ”
Zhuang Yu continued: "Even if we defend well, the food of the Japanese army should be almost the same, and in the case of lack of food and starvation, they will still come to attack our army." ”
"Okay, let's wait and see." Ren orbit.
In the city of Siyu, there were only 2,000 Tang soldiers under the command of Renliang, and it was difficult to divide troops to attack the Japanese army to defend the city.
Ren Liang sent Zhao Zhenwei and Tang Military Captain Zhang Ting to the Japanese garrison to investigate the reality of the Japanese army.
Zhenwei and Zhang Ting, who had mastered the situation of the Japanese army's strength, were also regarded as meticulous by the Japanese army because they were probing around, and sent a team of men and horses to arrest the two.
The two had no choice but to flee for their lives, and finally escaped.
"What? Are the Japanese army five or six times as large as ours? Wei Hong shouted.
"Yes, General, this doesn't even include the Baekje Army."
"What's going on? The intelligence of the Silla side said that it was only 5 or 6,000 Japanese troops, but I didn't expect it to be tens of thousands of Japanese troops. Zhang Ting, you're not mistaken, right? Zhuang Yu said.
"How is that possible? Lord Zhao and I also personally calculated the amount of food they consumed every day. ”
Zhenwei sighed and said, "I dare to ensure that the strength of the Japanese army must be more than 10,000. ”
In the Tang barracks, Tang Bing Chen Bo asked Tang Bing Xiangyang: "Tell me, where did you and that Silla girl go?" ”
"Where else can I go?"
"You must have taken her hand and kissed her."
"Nope."
Captain Li on the side said: "Be careful when looking for a daughter-in-law, there are many liars." ”
"Hmph, Silla girl Eun Jing won't be like Monnie."
"What are you talking about, are you kid looking for death?" Captain Li jumped up and said, he was deceived by Mengni last time, and Lao Li was deeply ashamed.
"Come on, Zhang Ting has been to the Japanese military camp for a long time and hasn't come back, the brothers are working hard in the tiger's mouth, what are you talking about women here?" Cheng Andao, who has just been promoted to lieutenant.
As he spoke, Zhang Ting returned to the camp as if he had lost his soul.
"Oh, Lao Zhang, you're back, I'm so worried about you, I'm so glad you came back unscathed." Cheng An said.
"How are you, what do you see?"
"Don't be discouraged, talk quickly."
"Brother Zhang."
"Can we, really, defeat the Japanese army?" Zhang Ting asked.
"What?"
In the camp of the Japanese army, the right guard major general Azuchi Momoyama asked the right guard general Mao Ye Zhizi: "General, we can obviously catch those two people, but why let them run?" In this case, our military strength and enemies will know. ”
"That's just right, I hope so, now that the enemy general Liu Renliang already knows everything, knowing that their strength is far inferior to ours, he must be very worried. The Tang soldiers collapsed because of fear, so we could win without a fight, and we didn't need to fight the Tang army, which was the most equipped and forced. Do you understand? ”
"Ha, yes. The Admiral's ingenuity. ”
"But that doesn't mean we can rest easy, I still have to make some final preparations."
In Ancheng in Liangzhou, Li Jinghan's subordinate Shi Biao was reporting to Jinghan.
"What? Is a thousand Japanese troops concentrated on the river and ready to cross the river? Jing Han asked confirmedly.
"Yes, General."
"Command the whole army, set off in a concentrated manner, I will take the lead and destroy this thousand barbarians."
"Understood, General."
"Let's go." Jing Han grabbed the long lance on the weapon rack and walked out of the mansion first.
