Chapter 461: The Fall of the Wa Kingdom
In December, it was also very cold.
But it can't freeze the heat and cruelty on the battlefield!
"Brothers, break through the palace and celebrate the New Year on the island!" Wang Jin drew his sword and pointed obliquely at the sky, mobilizing in a deep voice. More than 300,000 soldiers in Liangshan roared.
"Kill, kill, kill......" The deafening shouts of killing almost stirred the dark clouds.
After more than half a year of fierce battles, the four-way army that marched hand in hand successfully joined forces. Now it has occupied all the land of the Wa Kingdom, and only one imperial city remains.
I have to admit that the Yamato nation is very bloody. The closer the army approached the palace, the stronger the resistance and the more riots there became. It caused a lot of trouble to the team, and they could only turn a blind eye and let the Ainu people bloodily suppress and strangle the rebels.
At the same time, Wang Jin also asked the Japanese officials to guide public opinion, such as accusing Emperor Shirakawa of ignoring the laws of the country, robbing his grandson's daughter-in-law, and doing things that were inferior to beasts. He also forcibly dispersed the people of the capital to ensure the common prosperity of Greater East Asia.
For several months, the Japanese did not consume the enemy by fighting on their own soil, but they themselves went to extinction. More than 200,000 soldiers were killed and more than 400,000 were taken prisoner.
The armies of Yangsan participated in hundreds of large and small wars. More than 20,000 people were killed in the battle, and the Ainu also lost most of them, leaving only more than 20,000.
With such a great sacrifice, the results achieved are also brilliant.
The fleet blockading the sea had already stopped the Japanese envoy ship a month earlier. blocked their opportunity to ask for help, and the news could not be revealed. The four-way army was encircled, and the mighty army was killed at the foot of the imperial city.
This is a majestic city, and it is also the only city in the Japanese country.
The General Headquarters has long been relocated from Hokkaido, to the front.
Wang Jin took over personally
commanded and dispatched the final battle. In one fell swoop, we will exterminate the diehards who hinder the common prosperity of Greater East Asia.
The Imperial Palace, the innermost part of the Imperial Castle, was inhabited by the Emperor of Wa Province, where the nobles of the Wa Kingdom were concentrated. The nobles, large and small, panicked, especially the head of the country, Emperor Shirakawa. Understand that surrender is useless, these Song people are just to destroy Yamato. Driven by fear and unwillingness, he ordered the army and civilians to defend the city.
In addition, the high walls of the imperial city are thick, and the stone blocks, fire oil and other equipment to defend the city are sufficient. There are millions of stones of grain and grass in the city, enough for more than 200,000 people in the city to need for two years, and they are not afraid of siege, so to speak, making the last dying struggle.
In the imperial city, at least more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians are resisting stubbornly.
The 300,000-strong army of Liangshan attacked from all sides, and even if it could be attacked, it would suffer heavy losses. Wang Jin would not be so stupid as to kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred.
The persuasion was refused, and he directly used the killer weapon!
The loud rumbling sound covered out the shouts of the three armies, and the earthquake trembled. A huge black mushroom cloud rose from the ground and flew into the sky. An explosion that cracked the sky and the earth in the black fog rang out, accompanied by a fleeting scream.
When this pungent sulphurous black smoke clears.
The originally tall and solid city wall suddenly appeared a gap of more than ten meters. The soldiers and civilians of the Japanese Kingdom on the nearby city wall looked at it stupidly. Witness the moment when the walls break apart and collapse into rubble. Dozens of people didn't even scream, and then they exploded and turned into a sky full of debris and a rain of blood.
One by one, their mouths were wide open like hippos in heat, and the weapons in their hands fell to the ground. There was a lot of mud in my head, what was the rumbling noise before? Why did the walls collapse after the mountains shook for a while?
The nerves of the generals in the army
The qualitative murmur of the impossible, the recruit's eyes flashed with fear. Many of the men who had been captured fell to their knees, calling for the gods to appear and praying for forgiveness for their offenses.
Hmph, take advantage of your illness to kill you!
"Kill!" Wang Jin was not stunned, and commanded tens of thousands of cavalry who were ready to attack to pour into the gap like a tide, and then the army shouted and drove straight in.
The horses of Liangshan are kept with tigers, and they are not easily frightened on the battlefield. The earth-shattering explosion before did not cause chaos. However, many of their own soldiers showed shocked and incredulous expressions.
The Ainu were even more frightened, frightened by this means of manifestation of the gods. The unrealistic ideas of those leaders with some identities were completely extinguished. I think it's a great thing to be part of the Great Song Dynasty.
For the rest of his life, the idea of rebellion can no longer be born!
"Kill!" The shouting lasted for half an hour before the Liangshan army swarmed out.
300,000 troops into the city, what a concept is that!
The aristocracy of the Wa Kingdom was powerless to overturn the sky, and the Wa Kingdom had been declared destroyed.
In fact, on the day when the Japanese people were defending the imperial city, Wang Jin had already prepared secretly. First, a tunnel was dug to the foundation of the city wall, and then thousands of wine jars were moved over. It was not wine, but black powder.
Twenty or thirty thousand catties of black powder detonated, the power is huge!
Wang Jin is a time-traveling person and a soldier, although he has never made black powder, but he understands the principle clearly. Since the time of Shaohuashan, he began to recruit experienced masters who made firecrackers. Tell the black powder how to configure and add white sugar to increase its power.
It turns out that after constant attempts and failures,
Finally succeeded. Don't you have to bang the sky and thunder Lingzhen, and eat hairy pigs without Zhang Butcher? There were too many people in this Northern Song Dynasty, and it wasn't that anyone couldn't play if they were missing.
This is also the reason why Wang Jin did not take the initiative to win over Ling Zhen when he was in Bianliang City. Because the black powder is successfully configured, it is in the stage of improvement and accumulation. Until now, a few years later, there are sufficient reserves of this kind of mass murder.
Bombing several cities in a row is not a problem.
Moreover, the Wa country is also rich in sulfur, flame and other countries. After Yangsan occupied most of the land, he used the materials of the Wa Kingdom to make a large amount of black powder. Now it is only a small part, blowing up the last hope of the Japanese state.
I have to say, it's a kind of irony!
For me! This is just the beginning! Wang Jin looked at the battlefield filled with gunsmoke and watched his army pour into the city, with a smile on his face.
The army of the Song State entered the city in a mighty manner, and the imperial city of the Wa Kingdom fell! When the catastrophe came, the city shouted to kill the heavens, and the people's hearts were impetuous, and they became a mess.
Most of the Japanese recruits, civilians, did not dare to oppose the gods, and knelt on the ground to show submission. But there are also many stubborn people, such as those big and small aristocrats. Lead the Japanese army, escort the guards in street battles, or pack up the gold and silver, flee out of the city with their families in disguise, and simply blend in with the civilians.
Of course, there are also wise options to surrender!
Emperor Shirakawa, who was unwilling to lose his power, broke the jar and broke it, and his red eyes were about to die together, and hysterically gathered the guards in the palace. Trying to fight to the death, he sent guards to try to burn down the granaries everywhere......
It's a pity that no matter what kind of conspiracy, in the face of absolute strength, it is vulnerable. Emperor Shirakawa never dreamed of several important military places
and the granary had already been mixed with Liangshan's fine work, and it was also snatched by the enemy at the first time. In addition to the loss of troops, it is impossible to set fire to destroy at all.
There were ambushes all around the imperial city, allowing the nobles of the Wa Kingdom to take out their hole cards and go out of the city. But they can only be surrounded by sudden attacks on all sides, even if they can break out of the encirclement, they can't escape the pursuit of the cavalry, besides, where can they hide?
This night is destined to be a bloody night!
On this night, the destruction of the Japanese kingdom was also recorded in the annals of Chinese history!
This night is destined to be the last battle of the Chao family army after several months of hard fighting!
……
On the second day after the Liangshan army broke through the imperial city of the Wa Kingdom, Chao Gai and Wu Yong and other leaders and tens of thousands of people wandered at sea for several days, and finally arrived at the port of the Wa Kingdom and set foot on this foreign island that had never been seen overseas.
