"If that's really the case, we have no choice but to attack on all fronts, according to the news sent by General Hao, he has made all preparations in the harbor, and the Japanese army is not so easy to take the harbor, we will send a part of the elite troops at that time, and the Fujiwara people will definitely be defeated."
Lang Ping said."
It's a bit risky, we don't have a lot of manpower......
Zhang Lan continued.Zhu Qiming nodded.Lang Ping continued to speak: "It's an adventure, but Fujiwara Sato is not, once he fails, the war between the Fujiwara family and Wajima will be over, and we can sweep the entire Wajima without much effort." ”The generals had different opinions, but it was Zhu Qiming who made the final decision.Lang Ping is experienced, he can see what the problem of the Song army is, and of course he also sees the problem of the Fujiwara people, now the two sides are in a stalemate stage, and whoever makes a mistake will be defeated by the other side.All the generals stood in front of the map of Kyushu.Zhu Qiming stared at the map for a long time, and after a long time, he looked up at Zhang Lan and said, "If we take advantage of his unpreparedness and take the initiative to sneak attack, do we have a chance of winning?"
”"Fujiwara people will not be unguarded against this, I'm afraid the odds of winning are very small."
Zhang Lan replied.Zhu Qiming nodded and did not refute.Of course, he knew that it was dangerous to sneak attack at night, but now if the Fujiwara people really bypassed them to attack the harbor, once something happened to the harbor, they would be in great trouble. ”The harbor cannot be lost, otherwise we are all sinners of the Great Song Dynasty. ”Zhang Lan sighed and said.Zhu Qiming also said: "If the Japanese attack the harbor, we send 5,000 people to support, what are the chances of victory." ”"I don't dare to say ten percent, but eight or nine percent should be."
Lang Ping said, "Everyone knows who General Hao is, he said that if he is ready, it will be impossible for the Japanese to be easily defeated, and when the time comes, we will send troops to attack the Japanese people on both sides, and we will definitely be able to completely annihilate the Japanese army. ”Zhu Qiming nodded: "General Hao's words really don't need to be doubted, with him sitting in the harbor, we can give it a go, but we can't do nothing, gather all the cavalry in the city, and then send all of them out as scouts, once we find that they have the idea of detouring, gather and harass them, delay their speed, and at the same time send a letter to General Hao Yunjie and tell him what we think." ”Zhu Qiming made a decision.After hearing Zhu Qiming's arrangement, Zhang Lan and the others glanced at each other and nodded one after another.………… Three days later, the Japanese army besieged Matsuzaka Castle again, but the result was only a feint, leaving behind a thousand corpses and withdrawing, and everyone knew in their hearts that the Fujiwara people were planning to attack the harbor.This attack was only to test and paralyze them.The group of people led by Zhu Qiming are all generals who have experienced countless actual battles, and they have long seen through the ideas of the Fujiwara family.After confirming the news, Zhu Qiming immediately ordered Lang Ping to lead the army in pursuit, and not to let the Japanese divide the troops so calmly.Lang Ping immediately led all the 3,000 cavalry in the city in pursuit, and although he met resistance, he was keenly aware that the number of Japanese troops was not right.Fujiwara Sato had left with most of his army at least last night.Lang Ping's heart was cold, and he immediately sent scouts back to Zhu Qiming.The news reached Matsuzaka Castle.All the generals became nervous, and Zhu Qiming quickly made arrangements, letting Zhang Lan stay in Songban City to defend the city, leaving him with 5,000 soldiers and horses and all the artillery, and he led other troops to quickly rush to the harbor.On the night when Fujiwara Sato made another decision, he gathered everyone and announced his idea, and then quietly led most of the army to leave the next day.According to his thoughts, the army he left outside Matsuzaka City could confuse the Song army for at least a week, and at that time, even if the Song army found out the purpose, it was impossible to fully support the harbor because of the army outside the city, and this time difference was his advantage.This time, the Fujiwara people did not stop at the towns occupied by the Song army along the way, and the soldiers were very fast, if they spent time in these towns, what if the Song army in the harbor ran away?
He also wants those big war ships of the Song army.If he can get to the harbor a day earlier, he will have a better chance of winning.Fujiwara didn't expect that the Song army in the harbor had already been prepared.A full 10,000 well-equipped Song troops waited here for the arrival of the Fujiwara people.Although the Fujiwara people wanted to avoid the Song army along the way, but the two armies were fighting, how could Zhu Qiming not pay attention to his back road, not to mention that the Japanese still had tens of thousands of troops and couldn't hide it at all.Aomori Castle.The first town occupied by the Song army after the landing of Aomori Castle was also the last line of defense of the harbor, and before Zhu Qiming's troops sent to Matsusaka Castle, he left a part of the sergeants and a large number of supplies and artillery here.When Fujiwara led the army to Aomori Castle, the news of Matsuzaka Castle also arrived at Hao Yunjie.In the barracks.A group of generals were debating whether to fight or retreat.Some of the generals of the naval division believed that the Japanese army was huge and should be avoided, otherwise once they had a problem, Matsusaka Castle would be really in trouble.It is better to retreat to the sea first, borrow a warship to shell the Fujiwara people, and then attack quickly, and finally Hao Yunjie decided that the harbor must be defended, and it is impossible to give it to the Japanese people, so this dispute ended.Under Aomori Castle.As soon as they arrived, the Japanese army immediately prepared to attack the city.Aomori is a small town, so naturally it is not as difficult to attack as Matsusaka Castle.The guards Liu Shiji and Wu Donglai stood at the head of the city."
The general will hand over Aomori Castle to you and me, General Wu, this place is lost, and the harbor is about to face the Japanese people, you and I seem to have to defend this place with our lives today."
Liu Shiji looked at the army of Japanese people all over the mountains and said softly.Wu Donglai nodded. ”Lord Liu, I am a martial artist, and there is naturally no reason to retreat when encountering the enemy, but you are a civilian official, how about retreating first, I can send two personal soldiers to protect you.After hearing this, Liu Shiji glared at the latter."
What about you?"
Wu Donglai laughed: "Just kidding, are you still serious?"
You and I have worked together for so long, I still don't know about you?
Come, today we will guard this retreat for the general. ”Wu Donglai turned his head and shouted at the Song army on the city wall: "Since the beginning of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, my Great Song Dynasty has never suffered defeat, and today, the little Japanese people on the opposite side, we have no reason to fail.""
Ladies and gentlemen, today, I am waiting for a fight, that is, to defend this retreat for the army of Matsusaka City, I won't say more, those who survive will be promoted to the third rank."
Song Jun listened to Wu Donglai's laughter and laughed along."
If you are alive, you will be promoted to three levels!"
The Fujiwara people outside the city also heard the shouts of the Song army's high morale.This is also what he expected, Song Jun could not let him cut off the back road so easily, and he would definitely resist desperately.He rode a pony peculiar to Wajima, and pointed his long knife at Aomori Castle. ”Take Aomori, behind it is the logistics of the Song army, take there, the Song army in Matsusaka Castle will collapse without a fight, fight to the death today, for the emperor, drive the Song people out."
For the sake of the Emperor."
Stimulated by the Fujiwara people, the Japanese army shouted one after another, and their fighting spirit was also ignited."
Rush."
Fujiwara shouted.The Japanese army rushed to Aomori Castle like crazy.The walls of Aomori Castle are not as high as those of Matsuzaka Castle, and the moat was dug out on the spot, so it was of no great use at all.Wu Dong looked at the army of Japanese people who had swarmed."
Wage, die for the master."
The drums of war sounded.More than a dozen cannons that had already been placed on the city walls made a loud roar......
Rumble!
Rumble!
Rumble!
The cannonballs exploded among the Japanese and then shook all the nearest people away, and a few unlucky people were in the center of the bomb, and the corpses were scattered in pieces.The Japanese archers withstood the artillery bombardment of the Song army, and bent their bows and arrows one after another to suppress the Song army.The Song army on Aomori Castle was a little panicked for a while, and many people were dodging in a panic, and even scattered the formation of their own people.At this time, the besieging Japanese army had already broken through the shallow moat and officially began to take the city.Ladders fell on the city walls, and then the Japanese army climbed with shields and the muskets of the Song army.Shouts of killing were everywhere.The Japanese army had to pay a huge price for taking a step forward, and every time the Song army defended, someone lost their lives.Wu Donglai pulled out his weapon, and then said to Liu Shiji beside him: "Lord Liu, you first retreat to the back to command the artillery, and when General Ben kills all these widows on the city tower, you have to rely on your support." ”Seeing more and more Japanese soldiers climbing the city wall, Liu Shiji also knew that he was a literati, and if he went up, he would cause chaos, so he immediately obeyed the arrangement and went to the artillery position.After Wu Donglai waited for Liu Shiji to leave, he also rushed to the Japanese on the city wall and cut off the head of a Japanese man with a knife.In the battle of Aomori Castle, the Japanese army clearly suppressed the Song army.Although the Song army had the initial advantage with muskets, the muskets, after the distance between the two sides was shortened, they were not as good as cold weapons, so many Song army sergeants who had no time to change their weapons lost their lives.There were fewer and fewer Song soldiers, and there were more and more Japanese people on the city walls.The fighting is getting more and more brutal.Wu Donglai kept slashing and killing the Japanese soldiers, his body was soaked in blood, and the whole person looked like the devil of hell.The Song army resisted on the city wall, and under the city wall, there were also Japanese people who were banging on the city gate with huge logs.Fujiwara Sato looked at this scene, the smile on his face became deeper and deeper, and in his eyes, in his eyes, in less than two hours, the Song army in Aomori City would be annihilated by him.When the time comes, he will be able to harvest a large number of muskets, and with these, in the face of the Song army in the future, the Japanese will stand on the same starting line as them.It's a pity that he didn't expect that the Song army in Aomori City would be so tenacious and never collapsed.Wu Dong was right, the Song army had not experienced a single defeat since the Battle of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun.Every Song army has its own arrogance, and they are unwilling to bear the name of failure, otherwise, even if they return to the Great Song Dynasty alive, they will not be able to raise their heads.
