Chapter 309: Attack on Hakata
Liu Yuanxiang ascended the throne and became emperor, and the news of the establishment of the Chinese State soon came out, and the world was shaken.
It's just that Lu Cong is the leader, and Liu Yuanxiang is at least a member of the royal family, so the influence is relatively not so great.
The only thing that shocked people was the emergence of the first empress, as well as a large number of female officials and generals in high positions.
Lu Cong, Ma Jian, and Tang Niu received Liu Yuanxiang's edicts one after another, with different thoughts.
These three forces were all shocked, and they thought that it was definitely Ning Ze who ascended the throne and became the emperor, after all, in their opinion, Liu Yuanxiang's forces were essentially controlled by Ning Ze.
But he didn't expect that Ning Ze would put Liu Yuanxiang on the throne and create a female emperor who has no one before and no one after him, which is too eye-catching!
As for the content written by Liu Yuanxiang in the edict, they all looked at it, and no one cared.
Lu Cong was busy dealing with the internal troubles of the Liang State, as well as the harassment of the princes of the north and south, so in order to prevent Liu Yuanxiang from taking the opportunity to send troops, he did not make any response. It's okay to ignore her, but if you don't respond properly, it will cause more trouble, which will be very bad for him.
He knew that Liu Yuanxiang's accession to the throne was also under great pressure, and the impact of the woman's title as emperor was not small, and there would be various problems within Huaguo. The other party will definitely deal with the internal troubles first, and under normal circumstances, they will not bother themselves for a short time.
Ma Jian got the edict here, and after reading it, he kept shaking his head: "Ji Si Chen, it's ridiculous! Ning Ze didn't even take the throne and let a woman ascend the throne and be the emperor, it's ridiculous!"
Military advisor Feng Qiao said with a smile: "Princess Yuanxi has given birth to a son for Ning Ze, even if Ning Ze does not take the throne, he will be inherited by his son one day." ”
"That being said, it's ridiculous for a woman to be the emperor after all!"
"There are so many ridiculous things in the world, I think it's funny!" Feng Qiao said.
"Lu Cong and Liu Yuanxiang respectively called the emperor the founding of the country, and Dacheng fell apart, hey~" As a loyal minister who cares about Dacheng, Ma Jian is a little uncomfortable.
Feng Qiao persuaded: "Dacheng has died since Emperor You, and his qi has been exhausted. Now it is even more irretrievable, the lord should prepare early!"
"Ready?"
"If the lord wants to restore Dacheng, it is not right to be in the name of the princes. Feng Qiao said, "Now that Dacheng's orthodoxy has been destroyed, the lord should turn the tide and take up the responsibility of the society!"
"Is this a military advisor to persuade me to follow Lu Cong and Liu Yuanxiang?" Ma Jian frowned when he heard this, "They are all usurpers, how can I ......?"
"Chengguo is about to die, if the lord does not take responsibility, the country is destined to fall into the hands of others!" Feng Qiao said, "When no one thinks about Dacheng, it will be the lord's fault!"
Feng Qiao persuaded Ma Jian to inherit the Dacheng Kingdom, and Tang Niu heard that Liu Yuanxiang had ascended the throne as emperor, so he said to his subordinates: "Now that even a woman can be called emperor, why can't I?"
Because of worshipping Zhou Hydroxy as his father, he immediately announced the establishment of the Zhou State, proclaimed himself Emperor Wu of the Great Zhou, and posthumously crowned his father-in-law Zhou Hydrate as Emperor Xuan of Zhou.
Feng Zhou Yuan was the general, Mei Xu was the prime minister, and the rest of his subordinates were all rewarded.
Knowing that Tang Niu founded the country, Feng Qiao said to Ma Jian: "If it is four points today, the rest of the princes will all be called emperors." If the lord does not register, he will always be shorter, and it will have an impact on the morale of the military and public opinion!"
Ma Jian originally felt that it was inappropriate, but he was persuaded by Feng Qiao, so he followed the throne and became the emperor, and the south became the name of the country, implying that Dacheng now lives in the south. He proclaimed himself Emperor Chengde and divided his vassals.
Since then, the four kingdoms of Liang, Hua, Zhou, and Nancheng have been formed.
In such a situation, no one misses Dacheng, and all localities have learned knowledge and turned to their favored countries to serve them, make meritorious contributions, and display their strengths.
Tang Niu drafted a decree and ordered more than a dozen barbarians such as Changyi, Naduo, Rong, and Sakoda to join the Zhou State and serve themselves.
However, these aliens did not want to take refuge, but instead favored the Liang State and obeyed Lu Cong.
Lu Cong faced the attacks of Tang Niu and Ma Jian at the same time, and ordered to summon foreign races to help in the battle.
As a result, a total of eleven alien forces in Changyi, Naduo, Wei, Sarkoda, Ma Ting, Hadiwu, Lihu, Shanshan, Zhuan, Puduo, and Di sent troops to aid Lu Cong to help deal with Tang Niu and Ma Jian.
With the assistance of foreign races, Lu Cong's power soared, and he was able to face Tang Niu and Ma Jian's attack with ease.
On the other side, Huang Shao and Chu Wenxiu led 10,000 troops to go out by boat and went south to attack Boduo.
King Hakata ordered the general Batu to lead 30,000 sailors to the sea to intercept it.
Chu Wenxiu offered advice to connect all the warships in one place and make them into a chain of ships, which were like walking on the ground on the sea, integrating attack and defense.
and placed Ningze's special ballista with each warship and prepared it.
The first time General Batu saw the serial boat, he was a little dazed.
Huang Shao and Chu Wenxiu are advancing with the wind, and Batu is in a headwind state, not to mention that it is unexpected, even if he thinks of the direction of the fire attack wind, it is not right to use it at all.
The armies of the two sides met at sea, and the serial ships were like entering a no-man's land, easily scattering the opposing ships, coupled with the attack of special ballistas, and Huang Shao personally commanded, the Boduo navy was defeated and fled in a hurry.
Huang Shao captured more than a dozen enemy warships and thousands of soldiers and horses, and pursued him while he was victorious.
Batu retreated to the port, urgently mobilized 20,000 soldiers and horses to support, and more than 40,000 navies lined up in the port to meet the battle.
Faced with this posture, Huang Shao was a little worried, and said to Chu Wenxiu: "The enemy army is four times larger than mine, and I take advantage of the port, how can I do it?"
Chu Wenxiu thought for a moment, then said with a smile: "Husband, don't worry! ”
"How to break the enemy?"
"Just take hundreds of boats and pile all the firewood on the boats. Now that our army has a good wind, we will be able to win by attacking it with fire!"
Huang Shao followed his wife's advice and immediately ordered all the boats to be lowered and piled with firewood. In order to be safe, he poured tung oil, and ordered the best soldiers to control it, and sailed neatly to the port.
When Batu learned that the other party had driven hundreds of small boats to raid, he couldn't help laughing: "The big ships can't attack yet, what's the use of just a few hundred small boats?"
So he led his troops to meet the attack. Zilang literature
When the fleets of the two sides gradually approached, Huang Shaojun lit firewood, let the boat sail with the wind, and all of them jumped into the sea and swam back.
Batu was shocked when he saw that the boat on the opposite side was on fire, and it was blazing and rushing towards him.
It was too late to retreat, and hundreds of small boats rushed into the formation, constantly ramming the big ships, and the fire was fierce.
Under the fire, the ship could not be protected, Batu immediately made a decision and ordered the whole army to abandon the ship.
Huang Shao's army won a great victory, and after waiting for the fire to be extinguished, the army galloped into the port and began to land.
Batu led a large army to guard near the port and meet Huang Shao's soldiers and horses.
The two armies clashed, and Huang Shao took the lead in the enemy formation.
The morale of the Batu army was weakened due to serious damage caused by the fire meter, and the morale of Huang Shao's army was high after repeated victories. Coupled with Huang Shao's excellent martial arts, he easily crushed Batu, and the victory was immediately divided.
The Batu army suffered heavy casualties and retreated in a hurry.
Huang Shao took advantage of the situation to occupy the port and repaired it in situ.
Batuu returned in defeat and pleaded guilty to King Hakata.
The king was furious, punished Batu and lowered his ranks, and thought about it behind closed doors. Feng Charmu was the general, leading 30,000 troops to recapture the port.
Charmu led his troops out and quickly advanced towards the port.
The scout sent the information back, and Huang Shao consulted with his wife.
After Chu Wenxiu learned the information, he pointed to the improvised simple sand table and said to him: "The husband only needs to ambush here, wait for the Chaermu army to pass, outflank the front and back, and win a big victory!"
Huang Shao immediately set off with his troops and set up an ambush at the place where he had to enter the port.
Charmu led the troops to kill, but did not find Huang Shao's ambush soldiers, and passed directly.
Huang Shao and the other opponent's 30,000 soldiers and horses completely passed, the ambush soldiers suddenly killed from the rear, and the main force of soldiers and horses also appeared from the front, forming a outflanking trend, and attacking from front to back.
Charmu was frightened and hurriedly responded.
encountered Huang Shao on the battlefield and was slashed over.
The main general was killed, and the Chalmu army was in chaos, and in the face of Huang Shao's soldiers and horses, they lost their will to fight, turned around and fled.
Huang Shao led his troops in pursuit, killing 3,000 enemies and capturing 8,000.
The defeated army fled back to the city and reported to the king.
The king was shocked to learn that Charmu had died in an ambush. Hurriedly dispatched three generals, Songmu, Songgan, and Rongtang, each leading 10,000 elite soldiers to meet Huang Shao.
The two armies clashed, and Huang Shao was besieged by three generals and withdrew for the time being.
Chu Wenxiu immediately wrote three letters of persuasion to surrender, and sent people to tie them to arrows and shoot them to the Songmu, Songgan, and Rongtang military camps.
Rong Tang got the letter of persuasion, and after reading it carefully, he tore it up on the spot.
Matsuki and Matsugan met in private, and it turned out that the two brothers were not happy in Hakata, and when they saw the content of the letter of persuasion to surrender, promising to surrender, it was not impossible for the high-ranking officials to surrender, and even to replace the king of Hakata, and they were immediately moved.
After a private discussion, the two brothers decided to fight again.
That night, while Rongtang was asleep, the two suddenly rushed into the camp with their troops.
Rong Tang didn't have time to react, and was killed on the spot by Songmu and Songgan.
Songmu and Songgan ran to the Huangshao military camp with Rongtang's head.
Huang Shao was overjoyed, personally greeted the two, gave them a heavy reward, and promised to protect them after the capture of the Hakata country.
Songmu and Songgan gathered their soldiers and horses, and joined forces with Huang Shao, a total of 40,000 people, and moved forward mightily.
King Hakata was shocked when he heard the news, and hurriedly fled from the city of Tuhun with his troops and retreated to Narbonne.
Huang Shao encountered weak resistance, and with the assistance of Songmu and Songgan, he easily occupied the territory of Huncheng.
King Hakata lost the city of Tohun and hurriedly summoned civil and military officials to discuss.
Prime Minister Kuxi said: "The enemy army is fierce, and peace talks should be the mainstay! It is better to send someone to Tuhun to meet General Nahua and agree to pay homage to Empress Yuanxi." The Central Plains is chaotic, the princes are clashing, our country only needs to delay time, and when the country of China is weak, it can raise troops to take revenge, or even stay in the Central Plains!"
King Hakata immediately sent a man of eloquence as an envoy to Tuhun City to meet Huang Shao, only saying that Hakata was willing to become a subject country of Dahua, and the king would personally send an envoy to Dahua to pay homage to the empress in the name of a vassal, and asked Huang Shao's soldiers and horses to withdraw from Tuhun City.
Huang Shao asked Chu Wenxiu.
Chu Wenxiu said: "This is a strategy for Boduo to show weakness and delay, not to surrender sincerely. You can pretend to agree and storm Narbonne while she is unprepared. The barbarian land is fearless of power but not virtue, and only complete conquest can be used by me!"
Huang Shao obeyed Chu Wenxiu's words, pretended to agree to King Hakata's request, and asked the envoy to go back for the time being. Then he suddenly led a surprise attack and attacked Narbonne.
King Hakata hurriedly sent troops to resist, and after several defeats, he had to abandon Narbonne and retreat to the city of Kosai.
Huang Shao took the opportunity to order Songmu and Songgan to go south to seize the two cities of Yadi and Wutu, and led the troops to storm Kesai.
King Hakata held on to Kosai for several months, during which time he announced his surrender several times, but Huang Shao ignored it, and finally the city was broken.
In order to survive, more than a dozen civil and military ministers of the Hakata Kingdom killed the king, personally presented the head, and swore eternal allegiance to Dahua.
Pine wood and pine gan successfully conquered Yadi and Wutu, and the land of the five cities of Boduo was included in the territory of China.
