Chapter 1119: Patriots of Fuso

When Li Xiang came out, Lord Suzuki also came over in a carriage from a distance, and he must have heard the news, Li Xiang should have a lot of questions to ask him, so he didn't wait for Li Xiang to send someone to find him, and this guy asked his subordinates to come over with a carriage.

"The situation is a bit urgent, let's talk in the carriage, now go to the military camp in the northwest first."

The capital of Fusang is south of the sea and the north is the land, and the army of the Futian family came from the northwest, so Li Xiang had to go to a military camp in the northwest first.

At present, there are not too many troops stationed in the capital, only 3,500 people, and there are more than 7,000 Fuso troops, but these people have just surrendered, although Suzuki-sama has found a new general to take over, but how many people these people can control, this is actually an unknown.

Now Fusang's army is honestly staying in the barracks, patrolling the city every specified time, on the surface, they accept the leadership of the Tang Dynasty, that is because there is no change now, but if the army of the Futian family arrives outside the city, it is really difficult to say who these 7,000 people will help.

If he had known this kind of thing, Li Xiang would not have sent Fujii Jiro out, this guy has some ability for the army.

"We don't fight a battle that we are not sure of, you immediately go and send a letter to Su Dingfang, and ask him to send reinforcements from Fukuoka and Nagasaki."

Li Xiang didn't take Su Dingfang with him this time, because General Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin had both returned to China, so they had to leave someone over there, and before the new general came, Su Dingfang stayed in Fukuoka first.

Ding Tu, as a general of the naval division, although he can also guard one side, but regarding matters on land, Li Xiang feels that it is better to let Su Dingfang handle them.

Hearing Li Xiang's arrangement, Lord Suzuki nodded beside him, he has been by Li Xiang's side these days, and he also knows how Li Xiang succeeded, that is, many things are not risky, and immediately after they happen, they began to mobilize the troops around them, and what they can believe most is not the so-called chances, but the army with weapons in hand.

Only when the Tang Dynasty army is stationed around, Li Xiang will have an absolute sense of security, which is not only what Li Xiang thinks, but more and more Datang people think like this, so when the rebels of the Futian family come over, Li Xiang's first thought is to mobilize the army.

"How many other armies around the capital can be used? What I said is that there is absolute certainty, if you are in that kind of ambiguity, you should transfer them as soon as possible, so as not to let them stay in the local area to find trouble for us, and there can be no sloppiness at the critical moment. ”

Li Xiang knows that there are still many Fusang troops around the capital, but it is still difficult to judge how many of these people can believe, after all, all of them have expressed their allegiance, and no one has done anything excessive so far, but I don't know if they will be able to behave like this after the Futian family's army comes over.

"Your Highness, please give me a day."

Suzuki Zhongtai is a pragmatic person, he can't answer Li Xiang's question casually, Li Xiang thought about the time of the day, to figure out the troops around the capital, although the time of the day is a little tight, but Li Xiang has not much time.

According to the intelligence, the army assembled by the Fukuda family is less than two days away from the capital, and the Fuso army is not moving fast, but the territory of Fuso is too small, and the Fukuda family and the emperor share the island of Honshu, so if they want to come, it is also very fast, if it were not for the army of the other princes, I am afraid that they would have been killed long ago.

After coming to the barracks, Li Xiang found that this place had entered a state of combat readiness, all of which were the army of the Tang Water Division, when the Tang Water Division was formed, Li Xiang asked them to form an army similar to the Marine Corps, but he didn't expect it to be used immediately.

According to these people's thoughts, the Fuso people should have been subdued, but I didn't expect such a situation to appear now, since this is the case, then we can only use human heads to shut them up, not to be afraid of their main resistance forces, I am afraid that similar things will happen often in the future, according to what our Highness said, if you want peace, then you must first go to war.

Why were the officials of the capital and the emperor's close retainers afraid? It's because they all know that Li Xiang is powerful, why doesn't this Fukuda Yasukawa know? It was because the two sides had never fought each other, and he thought that he could gather tens of thousands of troops, which was also an opportunity for the Fukuda family.

When the emperor was announced to go to Chang'an, Fukuda Yasukawa thought that the opportunity had come, the emperor's reputation among the common people has plummeted, and no one thinks that this person can continue to be the emperor of the entire Fuso, if Fukuda Yasukawa can drive the Tang army back, then some things may be different, this is the savior of the entire Fuso.

So under such circumstances, Futian Yasukawa secretly contacted several other princes, and then gathered nearly 80,000 troops, claiming to have 200,000 troops, and they wanted to go to Chang'an to ask the king.

Asking the king is a saying in ancient Fuso, that is, when there is a problem with the emperor's rule, the princes and kings will gather their troops and go to the capital to ask the emperor what is going on.

Although the Tang Dynasty's army is very strong in combat, it is probably impossible to have only these few thousand people at present, and there are some other armies scattered in the city, all of which are less than 4,000 people gathered, and with these 4,000 people to fight against the 80,000 army of the Futian family, even Li Xiang has no confidence in commanding it.

Li Xiang has been staring at the sand table for a long time, we don't have much chance on land, so there are still a lot of opportunities on the ocean, but in the end, he shook his head helplessly, although the naval guns of the naval division warships are powerful, but the bombardment range is limited.

If they come from the north, then they will only have a chance by retreating to the city, and if they have been fighting outside the city, the artillery of the naval warships will not be able to reach it at all.

Now that the capital has just stabilized, Li Xiang will never give up on the capital and let them in, if that happens, the confidence that has just been built up now will also be crushed, and the chaos in the city will be staged again, even more serious than the last time.
