Chapter 432: Three-Way Soldiers, Treacherous and False [Asking for Votes]

The sun is shining.

In the dormitory, Liu Qing used a lot of perseverance to open his eyes and look at the sky.

Three poles on the sun.

Feeling a little sour on his body, remembering that last night before Huo Qu was sick and left, Liu Qing bit his lip and sat up on the couch with his right hand, frowning slightly.

After a while, she lay back on the couch honestly, covered her face with the quilt, and whispered to the maid outside the door:

"Go and tell Xiuyi that I'm going to go today, if there is something important to deal with, transfer it to Ru Bohu."

The voice was very small, but the waitress outside the door was stunned and heard it clearly, and walked quickly.

Liu Qing closed his eyes and decided to get some sleep.

She slept until the afternoon, and when she woke up again, she felt much better, freshened up, put on an apricot brocade skirt, and Her Royal Highness the princess was back.

"Your Highness, someone from the clan has visited."

"It's the sixty-ninth son of the Zhongshan Wang family, Liu Xiang."

Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan, is good at wine, does not fight or grab, but has many heirs.

There are more than 100 people who can be verified by historical records, and they are inherited all over the world, and Uncle Liu Huang in later generations.

"Let him wait in the main hall of the front hall for a while."

Huo Qubing doesn't have many friends, and Liu Xiang, who has known him since he was a child, is one.

Liu Qing, accompanied by the maid, came to the front hall to meet guests.

Liu Xiang is still the same as before, the dress of a noble son, his face is white, but his face is full of hollowed out.

Seeing Liu Qing, he got up and saluted: "I've seen Her Royal Highness the princess, are you sick?" ”

"Well, my husband went out to fight, and he didn't leave until morning."

Liu Qing glanced at Liu Xiang: "You call your husband by going to illness, it's not big or small, you have to call your uncle." ”

“??”

Liu Xiang blinked.

Liu Qing is the youngest princess in the clan, and she calls the emperor and Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan, her elder brother.

Liu Xiang is Liu Qing's eldest nephew, and there is nothing wrong with calling Huo Quai's uncle.

Liu Xiang looked at his face and said: "We can talk about our own things, I have a good relationship with the sick, how about calling Her Royal Highness the princess sister-in-law?" ”

He wanted to give himself a generation.

"Came to your uncle for something?" Liu Qing ignored his eldest nephew's suggestion.

Uncle is uncle, Liu Xiang said: "I'll tell you to get sick...... My uncle said, the clan wanted to deal with him. ”

"How do you know?"

Liu Xiang was not in Chang'an during this time, and returned to his father Liu Sheng's fiefdom in Zhongshan Kingdom.

"Several branches of the clan want to unite, and the king of Jiaodong personally came to see my father and lobby. They felt that Wei Huo was compatible, and the power of their relatives was too inflated, so they wanted to unite with my father to suppress their relatives. ”

"Brother Liu Sheng, has you ever agreed?"

"Of course not."

Liu Xiang said as a matter of course: "His Royal Highness should know that he is unwilling to get involved in these things that compete for power and profit. ”

Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan, is a clear stream of the clan, and most of them are not interested in business, except for eating, drinking, and having fun.

Historical records record that he often scolded each other with his half-brother Zhao Wang Liu Pengzu:

"The elder brother is the king, and he specializes in administering affairs on behalf of the officials, and the methods are harsh. Listen to dance music and enjoy beautiful women for the king. ”

Liu Pengzu sneered at each other: "You only know luxury and lewdness, and you have countless heirs, but you dare to say that I am the only one who is so stupid in ancient and modern times!" ”

Liu Sheng did not show weakness: "Stronger than you, don't give birth to heirs, don't like women, it's against human ethics." ”

The two of them had a verbal fight when they were fine.

"When will my uncle come back?" The more Liu Xiang shouted, the smoother it became.

"It takes half a month and a month."

"Okay, I'll come back when my uncle comes back."

Not long after Liu Xiang left, someone from the Hou Mansion came to visit again, this time it was to deliberately delay the trip, and Roshna, who had just returned to Chang'an from the Western Regions.

……

Huo Quai's team, after leaving Chang'an, marched southeast, crossed Runan, Jiujiang and other large counties, and came to Huiji County near the sea in the afternoon.

The new deputy Shi Jixiong of embroidered clothes is waiting here by mirage.

"Embroidered clothes, I've seen Da Sima!"

Ji Xiong stared intently at the most legendary young commander of the day.

But seeing that his body was as tall as a big gun, with silver armor and red robes, a cold face, and bright eyes that seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts. Its temperament is sharp, and it has a heart-wrenching bearing.

In addition to the Mirage, there are three other sea vessels, all of which are newly built ships in the dockyard and have only been launched for a short time.

The way the ship was built was the HNA Secret Pattern Ship that Dong Zhongshu had obtained from the Imperial Mausoleum.

Each of the three ships was less than half the size of the Mirage, but each could carry more than five hundred troops.

The group boarded the ship and greeted each other.

Ji Xiong then said: "Yingyang General Zhao Ponu followed the orders of the Great Sima and landed in the Yamato Kingdom, so the subordinates came to pick up the Great Sima. ”

Huo Quzhi walked into the main cabin on the first floor.

Ji Xiong followed up and spread out a cowhide map: "This is the map of Yamato Country drawn by us after our survey."

We follow the road east, and after a few hundred miles, we will pass these two islands......"

Huo Quzhi glanced at the map, which basically conformed to the borders of Japan in later generations.

Japan's borders are generally long and narrow, like a seahorse with its head facing east.

"Yamato has an elite state, and it is ambushed at the western end of the border closest to our Han Dynasty, and there is a situation of attacking and fighting at any time." Ji Xiong introduced.

Huo Qu's disease looks at the map:

"The location of the other party's troop amassion you mentioned is called Kyushu Island, from which it goes west, closer to the direction of my Dahan, and there is a smaller island, called Nagasaki, which can also garrison.

Have you investigated? ”

Ji Xiong said unexpectedly: "It turns out that the Hou Ye knows a lot about the borders of this Yamato country.

I was about to say they're here...... The hidden garrison of Nagasaki echoes the island of Kyushu mentioned by Hou Ye, and there are about 5,000 troops. ”

Huo Quzhi said the name of the Japanese country in later generations, and Ji Xiong also used it.

"We can go east to meet with General Ying Yang and Captain Zhao Anji's troops.

May I ask Da Sima, which way should we go? ”

The route taken by Zhao Anji, Zhao Ponu and others was to start from the Han coast, pass through the waters south of the Bohai Sea, cross the Korean Strait, and land at the northern tip of the island country.

When Huo Qubing gave them the order to march, the overall combat deployment had already taken shape in his mind.

At this time, he took the pen and sketched on the borders of Yamato.

In the cabin, Gongsun Hong, Ji Xiong, Bai Nanyu, and the military captain Fu Lu Zhi, Yao Zhao, and Chen Qing who followed up in the cabin all focused their eyes on the map.

Huo Qubing drew a total of four combat routes.

Two of them correspond to the current direction of Zhao Ponu and Zhao Anji's march.

The route taken by Zhao Ponu will be directly east of Kyoto.

It is an important pass connecting the east and west ends of the entire island nation, and if it is cut off militarily, it will not be able to connect its east and west.

And Zhao Anji's team, north of Honshu Island, has shown traces and will contain the opponent's main forces in Honshu.

The third line outlined by Huo Qubing is very long, it is the combat route that they are about to march by the Mirage, which is different from the route selected by Zhao Ponu and Zhao Anji, which is from the Dahan Huiji County to the east, through the sea south of Japan, and drives straight in, hitting its back and poking directly at Honshu Island.

Ji Xiong looked at the map, thinking that this marquis knew the terrain of Yamato well, and used soldiers to make mistakes, and he was all critical.

Zhao Ponu and Zhao Anji's teams are actually false moves.

The purpose was to cover the main line of attack.

The wonderful thing is that although the two are false moves, the position of the attack makes the opponent have to defend.

Otherwise, a false move can become a real move at any time.

The three routes chosen by Huo Quzhi, as long as there is success along the way, Yamato will be very passive.

Ji Xiong looked at the last fourth, the battle line.

Judging from the map, the last route is a reverse march route from the westernmost part of the island country to the eastern area of Dahan Jiaodong.

"What is the purpose of this route, please advise Master Hou." Ji Xiong asked humbly.

He needs to know the role of the marching route, so that the embroidered clothes can follow and pass on information and cooperate.

"This is the route of the Yamato Kingdom to attack my Han."

Huo Quzhi said: "After Zhao Anji makes a move, the people of the island country will know that there is no need to continue to hide the intention of mobilizing troops.

Their dormant soldiers and horses in Nagasaki should have advanced westward at this time, ready to test the defense line of our eastern sea frontier and seek an opportunity to attack Han.

Don't pay attention to it along the way, let them go to Jiaodong. The clan asked Li Dang to lead the troops to hold there, if a few people from Yamato Country were not allowed to pass, the clan would wait for a while, which would go against His Majesty's original intention of wanting to take a look at the heavy cavalry.

Give away thousands of soldiers from Yamato Province and eat them by the people of the clan. ”

Gongsun Hong said with a smile: "Then Master Hou, you have to give in, otherwise they won't be able to eat enough, and they will make even more trouble when they go back to Chang'an." ”

Huo Quzhi said: "A few thousand people is the limit, and Zhao Ponu's people will also do it later."

As soon as his position moves, the Yamato country is on Kyushu Island, and the soldiers and horses in Hiroshima will all be attracted and contained, and it is impossible to increase the number of troops to attack our Han.

The borders of the Yamato Kingdom are surrounded by the sea, and landing operations can be carried out everywhere, but there is no stable place to defend, the territory is not vast, and it lacks strategic depth.

Fight offensive and defensive battles, give him a million soldiers and horses, and he can't hold it. ”

Huo Quzhi took out the concentric lotus leaves, and gave orders to Zhao Ponu's soldiers and horses: "Do it." ”

On the other side, hundreds of miles east of Hiroshima in Yamato, in a rolling hilly area, Zhao Ponu received an order and said: "Prepare and set off in a quarter of an hour, and start according to the battle plan." ”

Afternoon.

At the other end of the island country, in the mountains of the northern part of the island of Honshu.

After Zhao Anji's team exposed their traces, the soldiers and horses of Yamato reacted quickly and sent a team to the nearest area to encircle and suppress and search in the mountains.

In the dense forest, Zhao Anji was observing the approaching island nation through the gap in the trees.

They wore rattan armor made of long, fine rattan armor, and only a few chieftains wore bronze armor, lined with orange robes, and held slender spears.

Their rattan armor has a special texture, and its defense is not weak.

The rattan has horizontal fine lines, which support the chest position in the armor, and the back is connected by a leather buckle.

"It's not like our armor, it's not full armor, and there's an attack gap on the back."

Zhao Anji said while observing: "Looking at their troops, their spirit is wolf-smoky, soaring into the sky, which shows that the soldiers are fearless, high-spirited, and all of them are elite." ”

The lieutenant sneered: "If you fight with us, you will be afraid, I promise to beat their out."

In this dense forest environment, they have few archers and carry all longbows, which are far less fast than our light crossbows, and are more suitable. ”

When the soldiers and horses of the Yamato Kingdom continued to approach, the two sides launched a desperate battle in this mountainous forest.

You must know that before Zhao Anji and the others acted, they had been dormant and probing in the island country for more than half a month, fighting a prepared war, and there were not a few traps laid here.

However, the Yamato Kingdom can be organized in a short period of time, and only four or five thousand soldiers and horses will enter this area to encircle and suppress.

When they entered the mountainous area, Zhao Anji immediately ordered to open the battle with a dense burst of short crossbows.

……

Midoriki Ueno is an elite native of Yamato Province's main state, and he is twenty-four years old this year.

He was marching with a team of 100 men in the mountains and forests with spears.

The thousands of people on their side, in two formations in front and behind, in a formation of thirty zhang on the left and right, echoed each other and advanced in a dragnet style.

Their station, guarding the royal capital south of Honshu, is equivalent to the forbidden army of Yamato, and they have always been brave in battle, and they are not afraid of the incoming Han army.

Green Tree Ueno walked at the back of the line, his eyes were introverted and quite alert.

Suddenly, he heard the bowstring vibrate in front of him, and someone shot at them.

The green tree Shangye bowed down and lowered his center of gravity, almost prostrate, and rushed forward with his spear.

However, not far from the neighboring tree, on a tree that had not been able to see anything abnormal before, a figure suddenly appeared and slipped down, and swooped down in the air.

The green tree Umino swung his spear and stabbed it with his backhand.

The opponent was in mid-air, and at a very tricky angle, he slashed at the green trees from the top of the oblique blade.

The green tree Ueno moved sideways, and at the same time, he swung his spear and stabbed it straight.

But he suddenly felt weightless under his feet.

"There are traps......

His feet were tightened by vines.

There is a tripwire trap on the ground made of local materials and woven from tree bark.

At the moment when the green tree Ueno was weightless, the other party had already pounced, from top to bottom, one arm choked his neck, and the short blade in his hand slashed the throat of the green tree Ueno.

These few sudden ups and downs, the speed is so fast, in the blink of an eye, the victory and defeat have been divided.

Ueno could even hear the faint sound of a blade cutting through his throat and bones.

"Giggle......

He whimpered, blood gushing from his neck, and life was running away from him.

The last picture he saw was that the Han army pounced one after another, with bows and crossbows in close combat, covering and killing their squad.

In the dense forest, war is raging.

And on the sea, the Mirage is carrying Huo Quzhi and others, sailing east quickly!
