After easily destroying the small court of Zhao Ji of Song Huizong, Ye Tianlong had already set his next target to attack during the return of his class to Tokyo City, which was the Wa Kingdom.

There are a large number of gold and silver mines in this Wa country, Ye Tianlong has long been eyeing it, it just so happened that this Wa people didn't know whether to obey the instigation of the Jin people last time and dared to take the initiative to invade his Qinglong Empire.

However, this is to attack the Japanese country, it is necessary to cross the sea, so the navy is needed, Ye Tianlong returned to Tokyo City, let the soldiers repair at the same time, and asked Zhang Shun and them about the construction progress of the naval warship.

Soon, Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun wrote a reply letter, reporting to Ye Tianlong about the progress of the construction of their naval fleet, because Ye Tianlong occupied the Song State for less than a year, so now Zhang Shun and they have not built many large warships, plus the original ones, now there are only a total of nine large warships, there are 53 medium warships, and 180 small warships.

After reading the reply from the Zhang brothers, Ye Tianlong expressed his satisfaction, after all, it had only been a few months, and it was already very good that they were able to build so many warships.

After thinking about it for a while, Ye Tianlong decided to mobilize all the large warships, as well as 50 medium-sized warships and 100 small warships, to carry 60,000 troops to expedition to the Wa Kingdom, and these 60,000 people are only the first batch of troops, all of them belong to the regular war soldiers, who go to the front, and will carry 500,000 militia to completely occupy the Wa State in the future.

After all, in the Song Dynasty, because of the relationship between the emphasis on literature and light on military force, most of the time the monarchs and officials of the Song Dynasty would not solve the problem through war, but would rely on negotiation and land reparations to resolve some disputes with other countries.

In the eyes of those former Song Dynasty officials, raising an expedition at every turn is completely a waste of money and labor, and besides, this Japanese country is still separated from the Central Plains by a vast sea, and it is not a wise thing to attack the other party! Therefore, in just a few days, dozens of officials, big and small, have expressed their opposition to this matter to Ye Tianlong.

However, in the face of the protests of those former Song officials, Ye Tianlong all adopted the strategy of not being able to read back, and he was completely a faint gentleman who insisted on going his own way.

After more than a month of preparation, Ye Tianlong finally led the army to the expedition, this time he brought the generals in addition to those horse and foot combat masters, there are also many water combat masters, used to deal with the water battles that may be encountered.

This naturally includes the Zhang brothers who followed him first, as well as more than a dozen outstanding naval generals such as Ruan's Sanxiong, Tong Wei, and Tong Meng.

However, perhaps because the fleet under Ye Tianlong was too large, there were no pirates and Japanese fleets along the way, and not a single battle broke out.

Finally, when the fleet had already arrived near the coastline of the Japanese Kingdom, I finally saw a few warships flying the Japanese flag.

However, the size of these warships is equivalent to the small warships on the side of the Blue Dragon Empire, and they are simply powerless to resist in the face of such a huge fleet.

It turned out that these warships were indeed not here to fight, but to send an envoy from the Emperor of the Wa Kingdom to surrender to the Blue Dragon Empire.

According to the envoy of the Wa Kingdom, as long as Ye Tianlong is willing to withdraw from the army and stop the war, then their Wa Kingdom is also willing to recognize the Qinglong Empire as its father country like Dali, call it a tribute, and donate a large amount of gold, silver and beauties to the father country every year.

If it were another country, kneeling so quickly and thoroughly, Ye Tianlong might really be merciful and let the other party go, but the country! For this poisonous snake, Ye Tianlong will not let it continue to exist because of the kindness of a woman for a while.

So Ye Tianlong resolutely rejected the surrender request of the Wa State, and asked the envoy of the Wa State to go back and tell them that the emperor should wash his neck at home and wait for death!

After the Japanese soldiers returned to Kyoto in embarrassment, they truthfully told the emperor of Ye Tianlong's reply.

After learning that the emperor of the Blue Dragon Empire would not accept their surrender, the Emperor of the Wa Kingdom naturally did not want to sit idly by, and immediately began to gather young men from all over the country to join the army, preparing to resist desperately.

By the time Ye Tianlong's tens of thousands of horses completed the landing a few days later, an army of more than 300,000 people had already gathered on the side of the Wa Kingdom.

However, most of them are young men who have just been forcibly recruited, both equipment and training are close to nothing, and if they really go to the battlefield, they are completely giving the enemy their heads, and there are only more than 20,000 troops with real combat effectiveness, after all, most of the soldiers were lost in the previous operation of invading the Blue Dragon Empire.

In order to allow these young men who were hurriedly recruited to have a certain combat effectiveness on the battlefield, the Wa State chose to exchange time for land.

In the face of the attack of the army of the Blue Dragon Empire, those cities basically gave up without any resistance, that is, let the army of the Blue Dragon Empire occupy them one by one, and sometimes even leave some grain, grass, gold and silver in the city, inducing the Blue Dragon Empire to spend time occupying these cities, and give up the plan to attack Kyoto directly.

Ye Tianlong quickly saw the plan of the Japanese people, after all, this was a conspiracy, but Ye Tianlong didn't take it very seriously, and continued to fight the cities step by step.

With these moments, the Emperor of the Wa Kingdom will definitely gather all the people he can muster, and when the time comes, he will just wipe out all these threatening young men in the Wa Kingdom, and the rest of the people will be thrown to the mines to mine, and go to the farm to farm for him as serfs.

In this way, it took more than a month for Ye Tianlong to hit Kyoto City in the Wa Kingdom. At this time, the naval fleet had already returned to China and began to carry the first batch of 100,000 militiamen.

At this time, the Emperor of the Wa Kingdom had gathered a full 500,000 troops here, and every soldier had undergone at least half a month of emergency training, and the weapons in his hands were at least one bamboo spear, and he also had a set of bamboo armor on his body.

On the contrary, Ye Tianlong now only has 50,000 soldiers on hand, after all, a relatively important city that he fought before needs to be guarded by troops to ensure the smooth flow of the logistics line, so there are 10,000 horses left behind in those cities in the rear one after another.

However, even if there were only 50,000 horses left at hand, and he needed to fight against an enemy army ten times the number of his own, Ye Tianlong did not panic at all, after all, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Japanese Kingdom, Song Jiang, who had already personally understood it before his Ministry of Rites, had already personally understood it, and the gap between the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Qinglong Empire and the soldiers of the Qinglong Empire was not ordinarily large, which was not only reflected in the equipment and training level of the two sides, but also the absolute gap in hardware such as height and size, in the eyes of the soldiers of the Qinglong Empire, Those Japanese soldiers with an average height of less than 1.5 meters were like children who had not yet reached adulthood, and they could easily beat them with one hand.

Therefore, not only Ye Tianlong, but even the ordinary soldiers of the Qinglong Empire had a relaxed expression on their faces in the face of the large number of Japanese troops.

"Attack!"

With Ye Tianlong's order, the army of the Qinglong Empire, which had more troops, took the initiative to attack the army of the Wa Kingdom, which had more troops and had just finished lining up outside the city.

The first to achieve the results were naturally the crossbowmen, and as they poured waves of arrows into the enemy's array, the Japanese soldiers who were only equipped with thin bamboo armor fell in pieces.

The archers of the Wa Kingdom were naturally firing back with arrows, but their junk bamboo bows, once they were too far away, the arrows they shot would become non-threatening, and they couldn't even leave a trace on the armor of the soldiers of the Blue Dragon Empire.

Seeing that the long-range attack could not hurt the enemy, a large number of Japanese ashigaru men raised their spears in their hands and launched a counter-charge towards the army of the Blue Dragon Empire.

Seeing this, Ye Tianlong immediately sent his own pikemen to meet the battle.

The two sides quickly collided violently, stabbing each other's spears at the enemy on the opposite side.

However, the pikemen on the side of the Blue Dragon Empire can stab an enemy to death with a single stab, at least seriously injured, and those spears of the Wa Kingdom are light, unless they just pierce the gaps in the armor of the pikemen of the Blue Dragon Empire, otherwise they will not be able to inflict any effective damage on these enemies armed to the teeth.

Soon the warriors of the Wa Kingdom also engaged the hoplites of the Qinglong Empire, and the battle between the two sides became more intense, often with the big axes and two-handed scimitars in the hands of the hoplites of the Qinglong Empire, the warriors of the Wa Kingdom on the opposite side would be split into several pieces by the armor, and they died miserably.

Even the crossbowmen on both sides were quickly killed, and the Japanese side had more troops, so although they were at a disadvantage in the battle, they were not completely defeated by the Blue Dragon Empire for a while.

At this time, Ye Tianlong personally led more than 2,000 cavalry under his command and rushed in the direction of the Emperor of the Japanese Kingdom.

Because it was a cross-sea expedition, he couldn't carry too many war horses, so this time Ye Tianlong only had more than 2,000 cavalry in his hands, and he didn't usually go out much.

And the emperor of the Wa Kingdom is protected by more than 10,000 or nearly 20,000 elite soldiers, and these soldiers are also the only veterans in the entire Wa Kingdom, and the other soldiers are basically newly recruited.

When they saw that the enemy cavalry had the intention of attacking their own emperor, they immediately formed a formation on the spot, preparing to resist the onslaught of the enemy.

However, Ye Tianlong did not stupidly collide directly, but approached the range of the riding bow, and led his cavalry to continuously release arrows at those Japanese soldiers, among which he directly switched the demon war bow in his hand to the multi-arrow mode, every time he released the arrow, the arrows shot would quickly split into dozens of arrows in mid-air, and he could empty a piece of enemy army at one time.

The other soldiers were not bad, the arrows they shot were fast and accurate, most of them hit the faces and necks of those Japanese soldiers, and one arrow could shoot those Japanese soldiers.

Those Japanese soldiers are also trying to shoot back, but even the bows and arrows used by these elites of the Japanese are much worse than those of the Qinglong Empire, and the farthest effective killing distance is only about 100 meters, and at most they can shoot through some bamboo armor and leather armor, which is enough for civil war on the native side of the Japanese country, but when they encounter these iron-canned heavy cavalry of the Qinglong Empire, it will be completely blind.

When rushing to the front of the enemy formation, Ye Tianlong asked his cavalry to quickly divide into two teams, split into two from the front of the Japanese army, and then circled the two wings of his army.

Some Japanese soldiers also tried to use their shields to block arrows, but in less than a few seconds, they were shot by the dense and powerful arrows that kept coming in.

In this way, after shooting for about ten minutes and destroying more than half of these Japanese elites, Ye Tianlong gathered the two teams of cavalry together again and launched a charge against the army formation that had become much more sparse.

It was just a charge, and the large array of the Japanese army with heavy casualties was directly crushed by Ye Tianlong, and the emperor of the Japanese kingdom also fled towards Kyoto City not far from the rear under the escort of dozens of personal guards.

However, this Emperor of the Wa Kingdom was wearing gorgeous golden armor, which could be said to stand out from the crowd, and Ye Tianlong immediately locked on the other party and immediately led his army to chase after him.

In the process of pursuit, Ye Tianlong was also releasing arrows again and again, but because both sides were moving at high speed, most of the arrows shot by Ye Tianlong were missed, and occasionally there were more accurate arrows, which were also discovered by the guards next to the emperor of the Japanese kingdom in time, and then blocked with his body.

Seeing that the Emperor of the Wa Kingdom was about to flee into the city of Kyoto, an arrow suddenly shot out from Ye Tianlong's left side like lightning, accurately hitting the head of the Empress of the Wa Kingdom, piercing the iron helmet on her head, then penetrating her head, and finally poking out the arrow from her mouth.

After seeing the lifeless body of the Emperor of the Japanese Kingdom swaying and falling off the horse, Ye Tianlong couldn't help but be overjoyed, and shouted excitedly: "Good archery!" Well shot! ”

Turning his head to look, Ye Tianlong found that the person who shot this arrow was actually Xiao Yangyu Ji Pang Wanchun, this general under Fang La's command has always had a bit of a rotten trend since he was captured, even if Ye Tianlong repeatedly went to do psychological work on it in person, he did not let go of his own lord being harmed by Ye Tianlong.

This time he brought the other party along, Ye Tianlong just felt that this rotten guy didn't have any suitable job arrangements, so he simply brought it and let him follow him to the country to relax, and look at the sea more on the way, maybe the mustard in his heart can be eliminated little by little!

Now it seems that this trick is really effective, and Koyoyuki Pang Wanchun, who has been rotten for several months, finally showed his edge again, and shot the Emperor of Wa Kingdom with one arrow.

And as the news of the shooting of the Emperor of the Japanese Kingdom spread rapidly, those Japanese soldiers who were still fighting on the battlefield suddenly seemed to be dead their parents, and they began to flee one by one with a sad face.

Seeing this, Ye Tianlong was naturally not polite, and immediately led his soldiers to chase and beat these demoralized Wa countries, chasing and killing them for a day and a night.

In the end, after statistics, more than 200,000 of the 500,000 Japanese army were killed on the spot, and about 200,000 were captured, and only 20,000 or 30,000 escaped in the end.

This is mainly because Ye Tianlong has too few soldiers and horses, especially the cavalry suitable for chasing and killing deserters, there are only more than 2,000 in total, otherwise none of those Japanese soldiers will want to run away from under his nose.
