Chapter 1108: Expedition to the East!
Goryeo, Seoul, Le Yi, the commander of the Liaodong Army, and Li Chenggui, the commander of the Goryeo Army, gathered troops in Seoul and supported 600,000 troops.
Zheng He and Zhou Yu's 400,000 Fubo troops were ordered to garrison Jianghua Island and cooperate with the Liaodong Army and the Goryeo Army to attack Dongying Kyushu Island.
The teleportation array flashed, and Prince Chuwu came out of the teleportation array.
Chu Wu's Donggong guards had Lu Lingqi's 300 wolf cavalry and Zhuge Liang's 3,000 crossbowmen.
In addition, on this expedition, Xia Liang handed over Yang Xingmi's 5,000 Black Cloud Long Sword Army and the 5,000 Savaran Heavy Cavalry of the Royal Wild Boar to Chu Wu's command.
Although Chu Wu can command only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, for the sixteen-year-old prince, commanding 10,000 elites is no longer possible.
These 10,000 elites have covered infantry, crossbowmen, light cavalry, and heavy cavalry.
In the Mongol Empire, Chu Wu was equivalent to a high-level of ten thousand households.
Xia Liang asked Zhuge Liang to assist the prince, but he had to give advice to the prince in everything, but he needed the prince to complete the expedition with his own ability.
Zhuge Liang wants to master the balance, but it is not easy.
It is necessary to assist the prince, but also not to spoil it.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, the Queen has an order, most of the decisions in this battle are decided by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and you need to bear the consequences."
Zhuge Liang said to Chu Wu.
Zhuge Liang was also helpless.
Chu Tian asked him not to bow down to him in everything, and Xia Liang asked him not to assist the prince too much.
Chu Tian and Xia Liang were worried that Chu Wu would become a mediocre prince like Liu Chan.
The assistance is too strong, but it is not conducive to the growth of the prince.
Chu Tian also went through hundreds of wars and crawled out of the pile of dead people to get to where he is now.
If Zhuge Liang helped the prince do everything, then Chu Wu would most likely rely too much on Zhuge Liang.
Chu Wu listened to Zhuge Liang's words, and couldn't help but clench his fists, his father and mother were very strict with him.
The crusade against the Qinling bandits did not have the expected military exploits, and this expedition to the east must make military exploits in order to satisfy the father and mother.
Because Chu Tian defeated too many strong enemies, his vision was very high, and his requirements for the prince were also very high.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Le Yi, Li Chenggui and other generals knew that the crown prince personally conquered Dongying, which was an experience, and it was also an important importance to the East Route Army, so they came to greet him in person.
"How many soldiers and horses are there on the East Road?"
"600,000 foot cavalry? 400,000 sailors. The first stage? Capture the island of Kyushu. In the second stage, Shikoku Island and Honshu Island were captured. The third stage? Capture Hokkaido. ”
Le Yi, the general of Yan Guo, was the commander of the soldiers and horses on the East Road.
"A Million Soldiers and Horses ......"
It was the first time for Chu Wu to see such a large force marching out.
The Great Xia Dynasty took a five-year truce? It was as if the legions had disappeared.
When the Empire's war machine kicks in, millions of troops are dispatched at every turn.
"The four islands of Dongying? Within reach. ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should not be careless. The four islands of Dongying have a population of about 20 or 30 million, fighting on the mainland? Can you recruit millions? In addition, Oda Nobunaga joined the Maritime Alliance three years ago. ”
Le Yi was ordered to conquer the Toei shogunate, and in fact, he had already begun planning an expedition to the four islands of Toei a few years ago? A move towards Oda Nobunaga? Know like the back of one's hand.
Three years ago, Oda Nobunaga could not withstand the pressure of the Bactrian dynasty and joined the maritime alliance established by the United States.
However, even if Oda Nobunaga joined the Maritime Alliance, it could not stop the determination of the Bactria Dynasty to take the four islands of Toei.
The sea near Seoul? Tens of thousands of warships are on display, and teams of soldiers and horses are on board? Jin Ge Iron Horse, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger.
Chu Wu's team of soldiers and horses? 100 warships.
Zhuge Liang counted the weapons, grain and grass, and reported to Chu Wu.
Chu Wu had to understand all aspects of marching and fighting.
Soldiers and horses not moving? Grain and grass come first.
How to win the crusade? It lies in having a huge national strength.
Qin is strong? Bai Qi and Wang Jian violently attacked the Six Kingdoms.
Without the support of national strength, Zhuge Liang went out of Qishan six times, but in the end it was in vain.
"The Toei shogunate is famous for its iron artillery corps and samurai, and the sailors and cavalry are not to be feared. The island of Kyushu attacked this time had several forces, such as Shimazu, Tachibana, Otomo, and Ryuzoji, among which the Shimazu family was the most powerful and had the Shimazu iron artillery team. ”
Zhuge Liang analyzed the strength of the Dongying shogunate for Chu Wu.
The Eastern Route Army took the lead in crusading against Kyushu Island, one of the four islands in Dongying.
Before setting out on the expedition, Chu Wu tried to write down the topographical map of the four islands of Dongying.
Outside Chu Wu's tent, Lu Lingqi, who was in charge of the guards, had an argument with Sun Shangxiang, who arrived.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in the camp tent, in charge of the military aircraft, and is not allowed to enter."
Lu Lingqi looked indifferent.
Sun Shangxiang had never seen Lu Lingqi, but when she found that Chu Wu's guard was a girl with a good figure, she was immediately dissatisfied: "Who are you?" ”
"It's not about you. Trespassing on the tent, beware of my Fang Tian painting halberd. ”
"I'm the eldest lady of the Sun family in Jiangdong, you dare to stop me, look for death!"
Sun Shangxiang drew his sword and faced each other.
The two girls fought outside the tent, and Sun Shangxiang held a long sword in his hand, and the sword aura was rampant!
Lu Lingqi's Fang Tian painting halberd is full of domineering, wide open and close!
"Miss, no!"
Zhou Tai, who was in charge of protecting Sun Shangxiang, couldn't help but be anxious.
One seemed to be the prince's guard, while the other was the eldest lady of the main family, which made Zhou Tai in a dilemma.
Sun Shangxiang is younger than Lu Lingqi, and his strength is not as good as Lu Lingqi, but the long sword in Sun Shangxiang's hand is a rare emperor-level weapon, full of power, once stabbed by the long sword, Lu Lingqi will also be injured or killed.
"Don't make a mistake!"
Chu Wu heard the sound of fighting outside in the camp tent, and when he came out to find that Lu Lingqi and Sun Shangxiang were fighting, he couldn't help frowning.
When he saw Sun Shangxiang again, Chu Wu had mixed feelings.
According to the queen mother, Sun Shangxiang is the crown princess who is determined, and Chu Wu, who has always obeyed Chu Tian and Xia Liang's orders, can't refuse.
"Brother Chu Wu, who is this woman?"
Sun Shangxiang pointed at Lu Lingqi with a long sword.
"Ahem, she's a guard I hired, and she's a powerful person, so you can't mess around."
Chu Wu was very helpless in the face of the future crown princess.
The Jiangzuo forces behind Sun Shangxiang are very strong.
When the Jiangzuo forces unified the Han Empire in Chutian, they surrendered as an organization, and Jiangdong was not affected by the war at all, which means that the Jiangdong forces were intact.
Jiangzuo's famous generals are like clouds, business is prosperous, Suhu is ripe, and the world is full.
Therefore, Chu Wu did not dare to snub Sun Shangxiang.
Sun Shangxiang pouted: "In the future, I will protect Brother Chu Wu, I don't need her." ”
"You are the eldest lady of the Sun family, how can you serve as a guard? Why did you come to Seoul this time? ”
Chu Wu skillfully changed the subject.
Sun Shangxiang said stubbornly: "Daddy ordered me to come to see off Brother Chu Wu, otherwise I wouldn't want to come...... Not to mention, it's still ...... here."
Despite this, Sun Shangxiang still held Chu Wu's arm, and then entered the camp with satisfaction, and glared at Lu Lingqi.
"Hmph, it's just the eldest lady of the Sun family."
Lu Lingqi snorted coldly and continued to serve as the chief of the guard.
It's just that Lu Lingqi always feels that it is not a taste in her heart.
Sun Shangxiang was not yet old enough to go on the expedition, so Sun Jian did not allow her to go on the expedition, but only allowed her to come to Goryeo to see off Chu Wu.
Sun Shangxiang studied under Yang Youji and learned archery, and in addition, Xia Liang personally trained her and taught her some internal affairs.
If the crown princess can only fight and kill, then the empire may be in chaos in the future.
"Brother Chu Wu, in two years, my father will allow me to go on the expedition, and then you will dismiss that woman, okay?"
"Next time, definitely."
In the Toei shogunate, Oda Nobunaga summoned the daimyo of the world, and the Toei generals gathered in Kyoto.
The Great Xia Dynasty was very strong, requisitioned troops, horses, and warships, and stationed millions of soldiers in Seoul, and guessed with his toes that the Great Xia Dynasty was going to make a move on the four islands of Dongying.
The people of the four islands of Toei were panicked, and the daimyo also stopped fighting openly and secretly, and obeyed the shogun Oda Nobunaga.
"Emperor Xia stationed millions of soldiers in Goryeo, 10,000 warships, fierce generals like clouds, and soldiers like rain. All the daimyo need to listen to my dispatch to resist the Xia army. ”
Oda Nobunaga sat on the throne and glanced at the daimyo present.
On Kyushu Island, the Shimazu family governor Shimazu Yoshihisa, the Tachibana family governor Tachibana Michiyuki, the Otomo family governor Otomo Sorin, and the Ryuzoji family governor Ryuzoji Takanobu were all present.
Among the Kyushu daimyo present, there was also Hirado Castle player lord Taira Yoshimori, who traded with the Great Xia Dynasty.
The daimyo of Honshu Island, the "one-eyed dragon" Date Masamune, also appeared.
The first wise general of the Warring States period, Mori Moto, has died, and the successor of the Mori family is Mori Terumoto, the grandson of Mori Moto. Two uncles, Motoharu Yoshikawa and Takakei Kobayakawa, assisted Mori Terumoto.
The Takeda family was succeeded by the player Tadayoshi Takeda, and Takeda Shingen fell ill and died.
The famous generals of the Warring States of Dongying have fallen a group of people.
Chutian has already survived to death and a group of famous generals.
However, the generals of the younger generation of the four islands of Toei, such as the "one-eyed dragon" Date Masamune, and the "first soldier of the Warring States" Sanada Yukimura began to appear.
In addition, Tokugawa Ieyasu is still trying to survive everyone.
Oda Nobunaga's words made all the daimyo awe-inspiring.
Chutian has already destroyed the Goryeo Kingdom, and it is only a matter of time before the four islands of Dongying are defeated.
If these daimyo don't cooperate again, maybe the four islands of Dongying will become a capital protectorate of the Great Xia Dynasty.
"How is the construction progress of the Yuankou fortification on Kyushu Island?"
Oda Nobunaga looked at Yoshihisa Shimazu.
"The Yuankou fortification, which has been completed, is isolated from the beach and the inland, and the Han army cannot easily go ashore."
"Good. The daimyo of the four islands, formed eighteen routes of soldiers and horses, and made every effort to resist the Han army. In addition, a slave army was recruited from Luzon. Then ask for help from the Maritime Alliance. ”
Oda Nobunaga began to divide the corps.
Kyushu Island set up four soldiers and horses, Shimazu, Otomo, Tachibana, and Ryuzoji Temple, each leading a road of soldiers and horses to garrison on the beach.
The movements of the Great Xia Dynasty have already alarmed all the great names.
The daimyo of Kyushu simply built the "Yuankou Fortification" - a long stone-walled Great Wall near the beach, and then used drawings to build towers, fortresses, beacons, arrow towers, and catapults to strengthen the defense line.
The current island of Kyushu is like a solid turtle shell, waiting for the million-strong army of the Great Xia Dynasty to attack.
The various daimyo rushed to repair the mountain castle and tried to avoid engaging the cavalry of the Great Xia Dynasty on the plains.
In the fifth year of the Great Xia calendar, the million-strong army stationed in Goryeo officially began the expedition, and tens of thousands of warships left Seoul, boundless......
