From the beginning of the war, 70,000 Japanese troops raided Jiangdu Haiphong, and the Sheng army could use the naval divisions to defend here, totaling no more than 30,000.

In addition to those who went to support Runzhou, troops were also needed everywhere to maintain the most basic defense, and these more than 30,000 soldiers had been mobilized as much as possible.

Although the imperial court initially left Chang Suining with 80,000 troops, and then sent an additional 30,000, among these 110,000 troops, very few of them were really used for water warfare, mainly on land. Most of the sailors who are fighting against the Japanese army here are the results of Chang Suining's emergency training in the past half year.

30,000 against 70,000, the number is at a disadvantage.

What's more, these 30,000 sailors, compared with the Japanese army, lack experience in water warfare, and usually lack the ability to adapt when fighting at sea.

In contrast, the 70,000 Japanese army was fierce, they held their swords, and the ships came across the waves, shouting slogans that the Sheng army could not understand, and the murderous aura of excitement and greed was almost overwhelming.

Vice Admiral Jin held the situation strongly, ordered the soldiers to set up a formation, and used a novel mechanism that had not been shown on the warship to deter the Japanese army, so that he was able to stabilize the defense for a short time.

However, on the seventh day, among the army that was already tired from close combat, there was a general who rushed from Linzhou to support, and he had to retreat with his 3,000 sailors.

He is not a sergeant of Jiangdu, let alone under the command of Chang Sui Ning, now that the world is so chaotic, there are many forces that have risen from their own strengths, so he doesn't want to bury his life here stupidly!

If it weren't for the fact that the new Jiangdu Assassin Shi was too strong, he had been pulling these coastal states to clean up the coastal defense, train the sailors, and insist on fighting the Japanese together...... He won't wade into this troubled water!

If the Japanese army fought guerrilla warfare in the past and gave up...... However, this time, the offensive of the Japanese army was extremely fierce, and they refused to retreat even after fighting for many days, obviously determined to take Yangzhou!

What if he left with someone? The result is nothing more than death together!

This person made up his mind to withdraw the army, so he first forcibly used the ships to retreat to the rear regardless of the coordination of the military formation, and then took his own people to withdraw on the grounds that "the defense of Chuzhou also needs to be strengthened".

The front was in chaos because of the formation, and Vice Admiral Jin suppressed his anger in the chaos and stepped forward to block it.

The three thousand sailors in Chuzhou, this number is not big, but it is not small, and at such a critical juncture, if they are allowed to leave, the army's morale will be chaotic!

The Chuzhou general did not listen to Vice General Jin's dissuasion at all, and was close to tearing his face.

At this time, Chang Kuo arrived in time with his troops.

As a first-class hussar general and a veteran who has fought on the battlefield for many years, Chang Kuo does not have the "good temper" and "tolerance of people" like Vice General Jin.

"Those who escape from the battle, fuel the arrogance of the Japanese army, and disturb the hearts of our army should be punished!"

The fighting in front was noisy, but here there was a sudden silence in the rear.

Seeing the remnants of the corpse of the generals who were separated from the family falling, those Chuzhou sailors were all pale.

Chang Kuo looked at them and asked, "Where is the deputy general of Chuzhou!" ”

An adjutant general stood up stiffly, not knowing how to exonerate himself to avoid death, and said in a trembling voice: "The last general is just following orders......

Chang Kuo interrupted him: "You will take over the position of the chief general of Chuzhou!" From now on, watch your soldiers, and anyone who wants to escape will be punished as deserters! ”

The lieutenant general was stunned, and the head of the main general was cut off as soon as he said it...... Don't you have to lose his head?

Chang Kuo looked at him with a pair of mighty eyes: "Did you hear clearly!" ”

The adjutant general suddenly came back to his senses: "The last general takes the order!" ”

"You must be clear that what we are guarding today is not Jiangdu, but the Dasheng territory!" Chang Kuo held the knife, looked around, and said in a loud voice: "Today, there is no distinction between Chuzhou or other states, and you are all Dasheng soldiers, you must know that there are no eggs under the nest!" ”

"Old man, it doesn't matter who you obey, but in this sea area, anyone who dares to escape from the battle will not be spared!"

The appearance of Chang Kuo stabilized the morale of the army and stabilized the situation that had fallen into disintegration.

He stood on the top of the commander's ship step by step, waved the battle flag, and personally commanded the battle situation.

A veteran with prestige and combat experience occupies a vital position in a war.

Those warships were equipped with mechanisms, and with the orderly military formation, they were able to exert greater power.

In the evening, with Chang Kuo's order, the Dasheng warship formed an encirclement within a certain range on the side, and after being pulled by the soldiers, the ship's crossbow fired thousands of arrows in unison, killing nearly 1,000 Japanese soldiers in one fell swoop.

This act of mass destruction greatly dampened the arrogance of the Japanese army.

After that, there was a scene where Yoshimi helped Fujiwara Maro to pass on the fact that Tsuneko came in person and boarded the ship to direct the war.

Seeing that his morale was frustrated, Fujiwara Maro also personally boarded the ship to command the overall situation.

By this time, he had already known that it was the Sheng army that deliberately concealed the sharp weapons and military formations, and these Sheng troops were not as conservative and incompetent as they had shown before......

But, so what?

"The real strong are like sharp blades that can't hide their edge, and only the weak need to hide in secret!"

"Sheng Jun has only dared to show his true face so far, it's just that he knows that he is invincible!"

"It is precisely because Sheng Jun knows his weakness that he will try to strengthen himself with trickery!"

"Even if it is the strategy of the Sheng army to lure the enemy, all the organs and military formations, but the small skills of carving insects, and being held in the hands of these incompetent people, are even more like paper barriers, which can be broken with one blow, and there is nothing to be afraid of!"

"Dasheng Qi is dead, this battle, I want my Japanese warriors to occupy Jiangdu within ten days!"

"Roar! Roar! Roar! "Yoshimi raised the sword and shouted, and above the sea, the sound shook the sky.

The Japanese army, which had just been on the verge of retreating, made a comeback again.

On the surface of the sea, the sound of fighting continued all night.

Chang Kuo used all the military formations to barely support the battle situation, but the fatigue of the sergeants was already a fact in front of him.

The next day, there was a storm on the sea, and the Japanese army, which was also exhausted, had to stop fighting, heal the wounded, replenish their strength, and adjust their tactics.

During the battle, Fujiwara Maro wanted to kill Chang Kuo first, but the Sheng army was in a tight formation, and he had no chance to get close to the opponent's warship, so he was unable to take action.

Through the fierce battle in the past two days, he gradually saw the clues, although the quality of these Dasheng Sailors was far inferior to the Xuance Sailors back then, but those weapons, organs, and military formations that he had never seen before were really not to be underestimated.

His previous contemptuous words were to boost morale, and some of his words were okay to deceive the soldiers, but if he even deceived himself, then his death would not be far off.

But if he was allowed to withdraw his troops, it would never be possible.

They wandered in this sea for half a year, watching for a long time, and this time he finally gathered a heavy army in person, and he must take Jiangdu in one go, otherwise the morale will be exhausted, and the battle will be doomed, and the emperor and those daimyo will inevitably blame him-

Moreover, he is only temporarily hindered at the moment, and he is by no means at a disadvantage...... The one who has the upper hand in this battle is still the military flag of his Fujiwara family!

While Fujiwara was discussing countermeasures with his military advisors, a samurai stepped into the cabin and brought with him the strange news that a batch of supplies that should have arrived yesterday had not been found.

They sent them to answer the inquiry, but there was no news.

Fujiwara Maro's brows furrowed.

Thousands of people, escorting food, ordnance, and medicine...... How could a team of such a size suddenly disappear?

"There have been no big storms on the sea recently, even if there is an accident, it shouldn't even be that there is not a single ......person who came to report the news," a military advisor said with a puzzled expression: "Could it be that all of them have encountered accidents, and none of them have survived?!" ”

But they can kill all their thousands of soldiers at sea...... What kind of force would that be?!

According to common sense, those who can kill all of them must have almost crushing strength...... Or maybe there are 3,000 people on the other side?

"General...... Could it be that the Sheng army was cunning and went around the rear of our army to attack?! ”

Hearing this speculation, the frustrated Yoshimifu couldn't help but pace impatiently: "But these wastes don't know about naval warfare, don't they never dare to take half a step out of defense!" And when did it quietly go around the sea behind! ”

The current situation is far less smooth than he imagined!

"It's all fake." Fujiwara Maro sneered: "It's fake to be conservative and stop moving." If you don't dare to step out of the defense and pursue, it can naturally be fake. ”

Everything they have seen in the past six months is all an illusion disguised by Sheng Jun-

As he said, no matter how the weak are disguised, they can't change the fact that the weak can't change it, but ...... In warfare, too much uncertainty means that there will be many uncontrollable changes.

If the Sheng army really went around the rear, I was afraid that there would be more shortages in the follow-up material supply...... A soldier cannot be left without food and wound medicine.

Sheng Jun's deception to lure the enemy may be more dangerous than he imagined......

In order to prevent changes from happening later, the only way to do this is to fight quickly and defeat the Sheng army as soon as possible!

But with Chang Kuo presiding over the overall situation here, there is no possibility of a quick battle...... He must kill Chang Kuo first!

After a while, Maro Fujiwara asked with a gloomy look in his eyes, "Where are the captives captured these days?" ”

In the course of the battle, they captured nearly 100 prisoners alive.

Sheng people are hypocritical, what kind of friendship do they like to talk about, and it has always been necessary to capture Sheng army prisoners alive. If used properly, it can demoralize the opponent.

Since he can't get close to Chang Kuo, it's better to force Chang Kuo to take the initiative to stand up!

At the signal of Fujiwara Maro, the 100 captives captured by Yoshimi Fuku were all taken to the deck of the warship in front.

Fujiwara Maro sent soldiers to send a message to Tsuneko, claiming that he had not seen Tsunekoku for many years and wanted to have a separate fight with Tsuneko, and that he would uphold the way of the samurai and fight with Tsuneko fairly and justly.

He also promised that if Chang Kuo could prevail, he would return the hundred captives and retire for ten days.

And Chang Kuo refused to agree......

"Whether you are dead or alive depends on whether Chang Kuo has the courage to fight!"

Yoshimifu pushed Lao Kang, who was bound hand and foot, and stepped heavily on Lao Kang's back, and said with a cruel smile: "If Chang Kuo didn't have the courage, then I would cut off your heads today and hang them all under the battle flag of my country!" ”

"Before that, I will chop off your hands and feet first, so that you Dasheng soldiers can take a good look at what kind of General Chang Da they call the majestic general!"

"By the way, there is also your ......" Yoshimi grabbed the woman's scattered bun on his side, and a cloudy light flashed in his eyes: "I just saw that there is a women's army in the middle!" It seems that there is no need to wait until the attack on Jiangdu to give the brothers a taste of Dasheng women! ”

"When the time comes, let the Sheng army on the opposite side see the ability of our Japanese men!"

As his words fell, the surrounding Japanese soldiers immediately let out a dirty echo and laughter.

All he said was in Japanese language, and she couldn't understand half a word at all, but she didn't need to understand it, and she could understand what foul language they were saying.

The embarrassed shepherd's face showed a disdainful smile, and he squinted at the short Yoshimifu: "Little gadget, I still want to take it out to humiliate the old lady, I'm afraid that you will drink water from your nostrils - it's enough!" ”

She was trying to save Hao Huan at that time, but she accidentally fell into the hands of these thieves.

What kind of torture, what kind of humiliation, just come, if she asks these thieves for mercy, she won't be surnamed Hao!

Even if these thieves cut off her head, she will have to smack them in the face when she comes!

As long as she refuses to give in, holds on to this breath, does not bend her back, and no matter what means these thieves use, she will not want to dampen the morale of the other side!

Yoshimi Fuki couldn't understand what she was saying, but when he saw her look disdainful, he scolded: "Ignorant rough woman, when I have my hands free, I want to see for myself how hard your bones can be!" ”

Then, he looked at the veteran who was trampled under his feet, with gray hair, but no fear, and sneered: "In order to show 'sincerity', our army must offer something to General Chang Da!" ”

Rain fell from above the gray canopy, mixed with splashes of blood, sending a scarlet mist of blood through the air.

Soon, a bloody hand was sent to Chang Kuo.

Angry and distressed tears suddenly appeared in Ah Dian's eyes: "...... This is Uncle Kang's hand! ”

Uncle Kang's left hand was wounded in battle, and only two fingers remained, and he couldn't be wrong if he counted it!

Ah Dian said, the tears had rolled out, he raised his hand to wipe the tears, turned around and was about to walk out of the cabin: "I want to bring Uncle Kang back, bandage him, and take medicine!" ”

"Ah Dot!" Chang Kuo's eyes were heavy, and he raised his hand to stop Ah Dian.

Ah Dian refused to let the tears fall again, and said loudly: "Uncle Chang, they are going to fight, I'll fight them!" ”

"Adults, children are behind."

Chang Kuo stood up with a knife, his right leg trembled slightly, but his expression was majestic and resolute: "It just so happens that I also have an old account to settle with him." ”

The comrades and friends who were tortured to the point of being mutilated, penetrated by the Japanese with spears, and hung on the Fujiwara warship were old hatreds that lingered in his heart.

"The Japanese are vicious, this Fujiwara Maro suddenly has this proposal, forcing you to fight alone, you must be prepared! General, you must not fall for their schemes! ”

"General, if you are ......"

Chang Kuo raised his hand and interrupted the dissuasion of his subordinates: "How many years have I been fighting, I can't see through any twists and turns, where do I need you to remind me!" ”

But this time, the situation was like this, and he had to step up.
