The battlefield of the Battle of Tosu is a panoramic view, from Chikushino to Kurume, and then to Asakura, the entire battlefield covers this hilly area with a radius of 100 kilometers, which is a complex battlefield full of castle fortresses, the core of which is of course the offensive and defensive battles of Tosu Castle, and the secondary hot spots are the offensive and defensive battles of Chikushino, Kurume and Asakura.

In this huge battlefield, the two sides invested nearly 8 million troops, which is definitely the largest battle since the start of the game.

"My lord, there are two latest messages from the Heaven and Earth Society."

Fang Zhiwen stood on the observation post in the center of the camp, here, you can see the situation within dozens of miles around, Fang Zhiwen's camp is built around the mountain, and this is the top of the mountain.

The whirring wind made Guo Jia have to speak loudly to be heard.

"Oh, tell me."

"Hehe, the first one is very interesting, according to the latest intelligence, now among the Japanese aliens, the two people with the highest prestige are the master mother and the master father, and the master mother is ranked first."

"Uh, Rong'er has made a name for herself in a foreign country! Hehe. ”

"Don't you think it's strange to my lord?"

"Most of the inhumans are male, so they prefer to talk about Rong'er as a big beauty, which is easy to understand."

"What the subordinates are saying is why do these Japanese people admire the lord and the lord? We seem to be their enemies1

"This may be the habit of the Japanese people! They like to admire the strong, especially the strong who will defeat them completely, Xue Yin said. ”

Guo Jia nodded: "What a strange nation. ”

"It's not surprising at all that the Hu aren't like this.1

"The Hu people are not yet civilized. Therefore, worshipping the strong and respecting the weak and the strong, are the Japanese people also uncivilized? ”

"In a way. Yes 1

"Well, let's not talk about this, the Japanese people admire the lord, which will only make the future battle easier. And one more message"

"Say Ai"

"According to the news, due to the continuous war, the Japanese people have been online for too long, and it seems that there are some different voices inside, and many people are complaining that their daily lives have been disrupted. Impact earnings and so on, which seems to be good news for us as well. ”

Fang Zhiwen was stunned for a moment and did not speak. Instead, he pulled Guo Jia down the observation post and entered the big tent not far away, Fang Zhiwen rubbed his cheeks that were a little stiff by the wind, and thought carefully for a while before saying:

"Bong Filial Piety. The problem of the Japanese people exists on our side as well. It must be foreseen that high-intensity warfare will consume the enthusiasm of the soldiers, and the impact on actual interests is also a problem that cannot be ignored. ”

Guo Jia thought for a while and nodded: "What the lord said is very true, but we don't know the situation about this matter, let's let Sister Xueyin and Zhang Zhiyuan give a suggestion." ”

"Well, please come to the front line and let Rong'er pick her up."

"Good! In addition, Yuanzhi's troops can move. The enemy forces are operating on the front line in Hita, and it is time to cut off the road to Hita. ”

"Yes. As long as you break it, you don't have to stick to 1

"Understood1

Li Yuanzhi, who has been operating in the huge area of Lianshan in the north of Kyushu until Shifangshan in the south, finally received Fang Zhiwen's call, and Li Yuanzhi must have some regrets for missing the series of battles in northern Kyushu, and now that Fang Zhiwen's order has arrived, Li Yuanzhi is like fighting chicken blood, and he finally caught up with the Tosu War!

This is an unprecedented battle, but it is the largest battle so far, and if he misses it again, Li Yuanzhi is embarrassed to say that he has participated in the war to conquer Kyushu.

Fang Zhiwen's order was very simple, to attack and cut off the supply line of the enemy army on Hita Road, as for how to fight, Fang Zhiwen did not have any instructions, this was Li Yuanzhi's absolute trust.

After receiving the order, Li Yuanzhi immediately led his troops to the north, and entered the mountains between Aso and Takeda, and lurked until dark, Li Yuanzhi led the cavalry to the north, raided several forts along the road from Oita to Hita, and after a false shot, crossed the Hita Road into the Yingyan Mountains, turned westward, and staggered with the Japanese army that came to aid from Hita.

At ten o'clock in the middle of the night, Li Yuanzhi quietly approached Hita City, which stood on the road, with mountains on both sides, which just gave Li Yuanzhi a good opportunity to start.

"The scout battalions of the front army are out to clean up all the light and dark sentinels and ninjas, and the rear army is responsible for the mountain peaks to the south."

"No1

"Each battalion set traps on the mountain roads, arranged crossbow formations to block the enemy, and carefully guarded against the opponent's heavy artillery."

"No1

In the darkness of the night, these ghostly jungle warriors quickly attacked, and the experienced soldiers quickly captured the hidden enemy sentries and ninjas one by one, but the movement on the mountain apparently also alarmed the Japanese people in the city.

A huge fire was lit under the wall of the city, and the figures on the city wall shook and were in a hurry, for fear that the enemy would take advantage of the night to sneak attack, and the Japanese in the city were gathering, and soon began to attack in groups, attacking the peaks on both sides.

The Japanese are attacking from the back, and the mountains and forests on the mountain are covered by rocks, and the road is rugged and difficult to travel, the attack of the Japanese is extremely difficult, the troops are gathered together, they will be shot by the Han army, if they are scattered, not only the firepower is difficult to play, but also the sniper level of the Han army is extremely high, and a deadly arrow will be shot at any time in the dark, and you don't even know where the enemy is.

The Japanese could only fire indiscriminately at the mountain, and the range of the musket was actually not enough to reach the opponent, and as for the blind fire of the marching artillery, the effect that could be achieved was also very limited.

Taking advantage of this time, Li Yuanzhi's troops had already set up improvised trebuchets on the peaks on both sides, throwing oil canisters at Hita Castle below the mountain, and at the same time launching a volley of fire arrows.

The defenders in Ritian City were busy fighting the fire, while Li Yuanzhi's trebuchet specifically attacked near the two city gates, preventing the Japanese from going out for reinforcements.

Then, an accident happened, and it is not known which trebuchet fired the oil that ignited the stored gunpowder, not far from the city gate. There was a violent explosion, and then the explosion spread. This caused a fire to get out of control, and then an even more violent explosion occurred!

It turned out that a large amount of gunpowder had been piled up in Hita Castle and was about to be shipped to Asakura and Kurume, and because the gunpowder was going to be shipped tomorrow, it was just covered with a tarpaulin and piled up on the wagon, who knew that the Han army would attack tonight. They also occupied the commanding heights on both sides and smashed the oil tanks with trebuchets, although the Japanese had been desperately trying to collect the gunpowder just now, but there were still some gunpowder that had not been collected and ignited. Then, it was out of control.

Li Yuanzhi grabbed a tree trunk beside him, and watched in amazement as the city under his feet was directly exploded into a big fireball by the violent explosion, and the mountain was shaking violently. How much gunpowder is there!

How many are actually easy to calculate. Two million musket troops used gunpowder to fight for a month, how much is your own count!

"General! Got rich 1

"What?"

Li Yuanzhi's ears were booming, and he couldn't hear anything, and when he saw the little staff officer smiling and saying something, Li Yuanzhi asked loudly.

"I said, 'We're rich.1

"Fart! It's all burned out, and there isn't a single hair left! Command to destroy the enemy forces as soon as possible and then prepare to evacuate1

"No1

The explosion was felt in Kurume and Asakura, dozens of miles away. But because of the cover of the mountain peaks, they couldn't see what was going on. It's just that the firelight at night reflected half of the sky, giving the Japanese people a bad premonition

"My lord, Motoshi destroyed Hita Castle 1

"Well, this is also a coincidence, if it is destroyed, it will be destroyed, and it can be rebuilt! It's a big deal to charge a little less1

"Hehe, Yuanzhi fought continuously in the second half of the night, and ambushed the Japanese who returned to Hita for reinforcements, and the results were quite fruitful, and it is estimated that more than 100,000 enemies were annihilated."

"Well, the herald commends Li Yuanzhi 1

"No1

"He ordered Li Yuanzhi's troops to operate in the vicinity of Mt. Yinghiko and Lianshan, completely cutting off the east-west connection between Kyushu and creating the most favorable combat environment for the Battle of Tosu.1

"No1

"What's the reaction of the Japanese people in Tosu Castle?"

"No, but in the direction of Asakura and Kurume, the attack of the Japanese seems to be more active."

"Attack? Fortress War? ”

"Yes, the Japanese built forts and trenches along the mountain, and one hill after another competed with me for control."

Fang Zhiwen stared at the map for a while and said:

"They want to open the road from Asakura to Kurume, so let's go over there."

"Well, the mistress should go to the south near Kurume, and I can't let the Japanese people succeed."

"I'll leave it to Bonghyo and Wenyou1

The lord is relieved 1, Guo Jia and Li Ru responded in unison.

With Fang Zhiwen in charge, the command efficiency of the Han army was greatly improved, and Fang Zhiwen could play a role in key places, the battle line on the side of Chaocang quickly stabilized, and the Han army and the Japanese could only shoot at each other across the hill now, and both sides were busy reinforcing their positions.

During the day, Fang Zhiwen would concentrate his forces to break up the opponent's attack or seize some key points as needed, and at night, the squads of both sides infiltrated and destroyed each other, but in this regard, the Han army had the advantage. And Fang Zhiwen was even more active, he didn't sleep anyway, he divided the guard into two halves, half of them fought during the day and half at night, so the name of the god and ghost general spread among the Japanese people.

It is said that Fang Zhiwen fought with the soldiers of the Han army during the day, and fought with the heroic soul at night, fighting against this kind of non-human, and was repeatedly thwarted by Fang Zhiwen to attack and seize the key points, and the morale of the Japanese people fell again and again

The war in Tosu has also entered a stalemate for the time being.

"Note that the pirates are gathered at the gates, probably ready to counterattack, and trebuchets are ready to crush stones1

"Came out, trebuchet attack 1

"The heavy crossbows are lined up behind the first barrier, and the maximum throw angle is 1

"Detachment Rotation! Detachment rounds 1

"The range of the trebuchet has been shortened by ten feet! Blocking shot 1

"Heavy infantry on the ramparts, paper talisman skills ready! Put 1

The scale of the counterattack launched by the Japanese was large, and the Han army's attack was also resolute and timely, but under the tactics of the sea of people, the Japanese still rushed under the barrier, and the troops composed of samurai and pikemen began to attack the barrier, unfortunately the musketeers seemed to be somewhat disjointed.

It was not easy for these infantry to break through the barrier guarded by the heavy infantry, and when the lagging musketeers finally broke through the blocking fire and formed support for the friendly forces, the Han army withdrew from the first barrier and retreated to the second barrier two hundred paces away.

After a helpless confrontation, the Japanese had to give up the first barrier and retreat. To be continued...
