Chapter 1211: Expedition to the Wa Kingdom
With the death of Poseidon, the battle that lasted for months finally came to an end.
The two leaders of the coalition army, Poseidon, was killed in battle, Himiko was captured, and the Praetorian Guard entered the city, and the main force of the coalition army under Yongzhong Castle was completely defeated.
At sunset the next day, the finishing touches on the battlefield were over, and at the same time, the Bo evil coalition army that had invaded Chenzhou was officially declared annihilated.
Without the slightest delay, Shang Ji convened a military meeting overnight to sum up the results of the battle and at the same time study the next move.
"Lord Qi, the final results have been counted."
"Oh? Let's talk about it! ”
Hearing this, Shang Ji immediately sat up straight and said with some urgency.
"My lord, according to statistics, under the city of Yongzhong, our army sent a total of 22 combat regiments to participate in the battle, with a total of 5.6 million people, and the enemy army had 4.2 million people, and the strength of the enemy and us was approaching 10 million.
After the war, our army lost 1.16 million wounded, 820,000 wounded (not counting minor injuries), and more than 70,000 missing.
A total of 1,820,000 enemies were killed and 3,310,000 were captured, and the rest were routed and are still being pursued, encircled, and suppressed.
Killed more than 20 important enemy generals, including Shenwu, Jian Yulei, Amphitrite (Haihou), Antai and other enemy core generals, and captured 31 important enemy generals, including three sea fighters, Jiujiu Nengzhi, Prince Kokumi and other enemy core generals.
These men have now been escorted to the secret cell, awaiting the disposal of the lord himself.
In addition, 2.2 billion gold was captured (including the war military expenses looted by the enemy army in Chenzhou and carried by itself), and countless materials of all kinds, and the specific data are still being counted. ”
After a pause, Xi Zhicai glanced at everyone and said: "In order to win this war, we have paid an extremely heavy price. Leaving aside the casualties of the army and the consumption of materials for the time being, the entire Chenzhou, especially the southern area of Chenzhou with Yongzhong City as the core, was almost paralyzed.
As a result of the war, a large number of civilians have been killed, a large number of farmland, houses and roads have been destroyed, and hundreds of millions of people have been affected. In addition, Yongzhong City was seriously damaged, and if a large amount of manpower and material resources were not immediately invested in pretending to repair it, there was a danger of downgrading.
At the same time, because of the war, the population has suffered heavy losses, and the probability of disasters such as plague and famine has increased dramatically. In addition, it is expected that this year, Chenzhou's tax will be one-fifth of the same period last year. ”
"Properly collect and resettle the remains of the soldiers, organize people to bury the unfortunate dead in Chenzhou, and immediately allocate food, personnel, and medicine from other places to relieve the victims. At the same time, according to the different conditions of the war, the government affairs will come up with a specific plan for tax reduction and exemption, and the implementation standard will be determined by the government affairs council. ”
After Shang Ji finished speaking, he looked at the table, and then said: "The post-war restoration of Chenzhou is fully handed over to the Government Council, and now, let's move on to the next topic - the expedition to the Japanese country!" ”
Well, as long as there is food and money, the post-war problem is not a problem at all!
People displaced? Pay for the placement!
Lack of food and clothing? Mobilize supplies for help!
At risk of a plague outbreak? A pair of people to disperse the plague!
It just so happens that in terms of material storage and production, Shang Ji is not looking down on him, but everyone here is garbage!
Pushing all the headache of government affairs to Deng Yan, Shang Ji began to think about the expedition to the Japanese kingdom.
Just now, Yang Ye (Martial God Temple resurrected and returned) had already reported, and the internal chaos of the Wa Kingdom had already become a pot of porridge, and it was a good time to start.
According to the report of the Special Operation, after yesterday's defeat and capture of Himiko and the total annihilation of the Yamadai Expeditionary Force were transmitted back to the Wa Kingdom, the Wa Kuni Prefecture, which had been forcibly integrated by the birth of Yamadai, immediately fell into a state of fragmentation again.
Tokugawa Ieyasu, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Takeda Shingen, and others, who were forced to retreat to Hokkaido and call them tribute, killed them as soon as they confirmed the authenticity of the news.
And those historical generals of the former Wa Kingdom who were forced to surrender due to the forces of Yamatai broke away from the rule of Yamatai and voted for another lord or set themselves up as kings.
Because Himiko took away most of the elite main forces of Yamatai, the last two core generals of Yamadai who remained in the Wa Kingdom, Tenjuri and Azumi, were simply unable to suppress the rebellions that broke out one after another.
Because in the process of Himiko's reunification of the Wakoku region, a large number of our country's original ecological princes were destroyed, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi and the three were still watching the snow in Hokkaido, and they had no time to return to the core area, so at this moment, the Wakoku was a plate of scattered sand, gathering tens of thousands of horses, and daring to call themselves daimyo when they occupied a city, which was many times more chaotic than the original Wakoku history!
"Regarding the expedition to the Wa Kingdom, are there any difficulties on the part of the sailors?"
Shang Ji turned to look at Ling Cao and asked directly.
Ling Cao immediately got up and said excitedly: "Lord Qiqi, there is no difficulty. The Poseidon naval army is comprehensive, according to the confession of the captives, the Japanese naval division has not recovered after the last naval battle, only three kittens, two or three, and it cannot pose a threat to our army at all.
In addition, with the assistance of Guo Junshi, our army has learned how to safely cross the ocean storm. The Sailor Task Force Expedition Fleet set off yesterday, and after verifying the safety of the secret passage, the Sailor can go on an expedition to the Wa Kingdom at any time! ”
"What is the carrying capacity of the sailor? Is it possible to guarantee our army's cross-sea expedition? ”
Regarding this question, Ling Cao was obviously prepared, and replied unhurriedly: "My lord, according to statistics, after the full mobilization, the sailor has the ability to carry ten combat legions to the Wa Kingdom at one time. With the current capacity of the Naval Division, it can supply the logistics needs of the five million army at the same time under the condition of completely relying on the local territory! ”
"What do you think about the expedition to the Wa Kingdom?"
"The Japanese country has made a big mistake with a small crime, which has caused the displacement of the people of Chenzhou, and they should have surrendered to the wrath of thunder. However, the battle had just ended, and although our army had won, the losses were also quite serious, and the soldiers were tired and hurriedly crossed the sea for fear of missing out. ”
But he didn't want to talk about it before his words fell, so he saw that he got up and said slowly.
However, Shang Ji was very keen to hear another meaning from the frustrated words, and couldn't help asking, "Gonghe, what do you mean?" ”
"Lord Qiqi, my subordinates think that the best choice at the moment is to recruit the old generals of Yamatai, they are more familiar with the situation of the Japanese Kingdom, if they can get their help, it will not be difficult to conquer the Japanese Kingdom!
According to the knowledge of his subordinates, there are currently hundreds of large-scale forces in the Wa Kingdom, but the only ones that are really likely to hinder our army are the three major local forces of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Tokugawa Ieyasu, and Takeda Shingen, as well as the remnants of the Yamatai forces headed by Tenteritsu.
If you can recruit Himiko, the remnants of Yamatai will turn from resistance to help, and conquering the Wa Kingdom will be easy! ”
Hearing this, Shang Ji turned to look at Guo Jia and asked suspiciously, "Feng Xiao, how is the progress of recruiting the generals of Yamatai?" ”
Because of the powerful function of Guo Jia's Ghost Vision, he is generally responsible for recruiting enemy troops, and according to past experience, it can be said that he is invincible.
It's just that this time Guo Jia shook his head with a wry smile, got up and hugged his fists and said: "The lord forgives his sins, his subordinates are incompetent, and he has not succeeded in recruiting any of the core generals of Yamatai." ”
