Chapter 486: The Storm is brewing
The sky was overcast and bright, and a little black smoke was rising.
The early sun, which broke through the clouds, pushed the edge of the green darkness, enveloping the sea, the islands, and even the camp where the remaining embers of fire remained.
In the golden morning light, Yuwen Chengdu, who was covered in blood, led his soldiers and horses back, came to the gate full of corpses, stepped on the charred corpses of the Japanese who had been hacked to death by swords, and walked into the brittle barracks, and the flames on the fence gradually extinguished.
A charred corpse, filled with a disgusting scorching smell, Yuwen Chengdu held his breath, looked at the scene inside, and frowned.
The soldiers who followed up smelled the scorching smell and looked at the miserable picture, and their stomachs churned.
Inside, it was a charred black color, and it was no longer possible to distinguish between a person and a charred tent, and one by one the burned Japanese people twisted their bodies and died in strange postures.
Fortunately, the Japanese people were blinded by the fire and smoke, huddled in the corner and shivering, perhaps hearing footsteps, making a hoarse sound, and at the same time, stretched out their hands and groped around, probably wanting to surrender and get out of here.
"As a result of them!"
Yuwen Chengdu raised his hand and hooked his fingers at the soldier behind him.
Immediately, a few soldiers stepped on the crisp corpses and scorched wood on the ground with their legs, and walked over with the crisp sound of 'Gaba Gaba'.
As if sensing a savior, the remaining widows hurriedly leaned in the direction of the sound.
Waiting for them was the soldier of Xia Guo who was carrying a knife and directly pressed their heads, and without waiting for them to react, he slashed them down.
Immediately, the human head was thrown into the ground casually.
As the day grew brighter, the completely burned barracks, under the division of labor of more than 2,000 soldiers who had come one after another, demolished the scorched wood, and then dug a large pit in the open area outside, and the corpses that were cleaned up, charred, roasted, and headless...... Throw them into it one by one and bury them.
After all, it was summer, and it was a place for baggage replacement, and it would be a dereliction of duty if the plague bred it.
On the nearby hills, the forest field was caressed in the morning breeze, making a soft 'rustle' sound, Zhuge Liang sat on the stone under the green shade, looked at the huge black mottled land in the distance, and shook the feather fan.
"The Japanese have a plan, but not many."
"These are the leftovers of our play, they only saw the strategy we used back then, but they didn't look at why we used the strategy, the speculation of the opponent before the calculation, and understood the other party's intentions, so they used the strategy."
On the side of Qingshi, there was Jia Xu who came to sit down with a small folding stool, and a fire burned thousands of Japanese people, as if it had never happened, his face was still calm, and his eyes were also looking at the blackened earth under the hills.
"However, the tenacity of the Japanese is rare, and they would rather die than charge, and they have the resources to strengthen the army."
The gentle morning breeze blew in with the smell of burning, the green leaves were swaying gently, and the crane fan in Zhuge Liang's hand shook it, interrupting Jia Xu's voice.
"Tai Lieutenant, the Japanese are in the bright eyes, but a group of uncivilized beasts, bullying the weak, hysterical, not the choice of the strong soldiers, soldiers, for the holy king, for the people, when the strong siege of the city, invincible; When it is weak, it is necessary to rein in its wings and be sympathetic to public opinion. ”
His voice paused in the wind, and Jia Xu on the side just nodded, obviously in his concept, the beast is also a strong soldier, and it should be used to defeat the enemy, but he doesn't want to compete with Zhuge Liang for the advantage of words for this moment.
Internal harmony is what the Son of Heaven wants, Jia Xu smiled at Zhuge Liang and said: "What the prime minister said is that it is superficial. ”
Immediately, his eyes crossed the corners of his eyes, and his gaze stared coldly at the land with huge mottled black marks, "...... It doesn't matter if it's a beast or a strong soldier, it doesn't matter, and there will be no chickens and dogs left here in the future. ”
"It really doesn't matter."
The wind swayed through the hills, the leaves rose and fell like waves, and the lingering smoke drifted away from the hills like silk wool.
Zhuge Liang also sighed, then got up and invited Jia Xu to go back together, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Tai Lieutenant, you should go to Your Majesty's side, it's time to plan the next game." ”
Jia Xu stretched his muscles lazily.
"This group of Japanese people has no ability, but it should have been in the past, if Your Majesty asks for a plan, you can end the fight against the Japanese island quickly, and then go back quickly."
"Why?"
"The sea breeze blows on my knees."
"Huh!"
Between the words, the two walked side by side, talking and laughing, and returned to the camp behind the hill, which was a newly established camp.
In fact, if Zhuge Liang was alone, although he would not let the plan of the Japanese people succeed, it would take some time.
But right now, Jia Xu is on his side, he is very good at perceiving people's hearts, and the mystery behind things, and through the Son of Heaven asking for tools to break the dark pile, he speculates about the next move of the Japanese people.
From the analysis of the army, the other party has the experience of the first battle of Shikoku Island, and obviously will not fight hard with its own army head-on, but only from other aspects, but the ultimate goal is definitely to defeat the soldiers and horses of the Xia State.
If you can't fight head-on, there is only one way left, cutting off the heavy grain and straw, and the back road of the soldiers and horses of the Xia Kingdom, trapping it on Shikoku Island and encroaching on it step by step.
But it's a pity that I met a Jia Xu who is good at speculating on people's hearts.
Half an hour later, the horse pulled a simple carriage and slowly stopped at the harbor of Tsushima Island, Zhuge Liang got out of the car, and Jia Xu came down with Jia Xu, who had cleaned up.
"Captain, when you get over there, you should plan more for Your Majesty."
"Don't worry about the prime minister, I had too much to worry about in my previous life, so I will stay in the back, in my last life, I criticized my previous life for being a man with my tail between my legs, and I naturally have to show my talents in this life."
After speaking, Jia Xu arched his hand, and walked on the sea ship transporting grain and straw in high spirits, 60,000 soldiers and horses on the front line, and the daily eating, drinking, and Lazar are astronomical, and a soldier needs three or four catties of rice every day, not counting vegetables and meat.
From Shengkang in Wuzhou and Lin County in the Central Plains, hundreds of ships come and go every day to transport grain to Tsushima Island, and Zhuge Liang's daily workload is also extremely large.
This is also one of the reasons why Su Chen brought him to Wadao.
From Tsushima Island to the eastern part of Shikoku Island, every half an hour, that is, two quarters of an hour, a ship transports grain to the island, so that the daily food needs of the front line will not be cut off.
Jia Xu took the fifth sea ship in the past today, and it was almost noon, bypassing the north of Shikoku Island, and he came to the east, at this time, there were already many boats cruising in the sea area between Shikoku Island and Yunguo Island.
He stood at the bow of the ship and watched as the naked soldiers jumped into the water, while their companions tugged at the ropes, and when the ropes trembled, the men on board pulled their companions under the water with all their might.
They were accompanied by stakes that had been chiseled or floated on the surface of the water with silt from the seabed.
Soon, the sea ship docked, Jia Xu came to the humble port built, Qi Jiguang was already here to train the navy, seeing Jia Xu, he smiled and stepped forward to talk, and immediately sent a herald to the Chinese army camp in the distance.
"When the captain came, he didn't tell His Majesty?"
"Hehe, Xu is the prime minister's first herald." Jia Xu half-jokingly joked with Qi Jiguang, a famous anti-Japanese general in later generations, and then took his leave, and went to the Chinese army camp under the escort of several personal soldiers.
At this time, Su Chen over there was walking along the coast outside the camp, watching the soldiers of the state drive the boat on the sea to explore the hidden piles.
Hearing that Jia Xu suddenly came here, his face showed a little surprise, obviously he didn't know that there was a war on Tsushima Island yesterday.
was about to return to the barracks to meet Jia Xu, and just after walking a few steps, he saw from a distance that the other party had come from the gate on the other side of the camp.
"Your Majesty!" After Jia Xu waved off his own soldiers, he stepped forward and bowed.
"Why did the captain come to the front?"
"Hey, I'm here to be a herald." Jia Xu said the joke he had just made to Qi Jiguang again, but he didn't hide the rest of the words, and told Su Chen about the sneak attack on Tsushima Island yesterday.
This shocked Dian Wei and Xu Chu around Su Chen into a cold sweat.
"If the Japanese can do this, there must be a capable person on the other side, but I don't know who it is." Su Chen was naturally also shocked, if the back road was cut off, close to 60,000 people, and there were not many warships, the only thing he could rely on was Guan Yu's Wuzhou naval army to help.
"So, don't you just come to Your Majesty to listen to it?" The old fox's smile was gloomy, and Su Chen felt a little uncomfortable when he saw it.
"It's time for General Guan's navy to be dispatched, but let's not be rude, right, Your Majesty?"
Su Chen looked at the sea in front of him full of cruising boats, nodded, snorted twice, and sneered: "Yes, how can my Great Xia be beaten and not fight back, the revenge of the day will be reported back the same day!" ”
Immediately, he called softly: "Wu Zixun! ”
"The minister is here!"
"Send an order to General Guan, so that they should also make a move, and inform the Japanese of the sneak attack on Tsushima, and General Guan will know how to act!"
"Yes!"
