Chapter 489: A big army can be dispatched


At this moment, the sound of horse hooves came from the west, and these barbarians hurriedly got up from the ground and jumped on the back of the horse, and began to form a team under the general's order.

Seeing that their formation was completed, Tokugawa Iemitsu found that these barbarians were very different from the Ming people in Nancheng, but they were far behind in orderliness.

The military formation in front of them was relatively orderly, but it was extremely noisy.

The nearly 20,000 people standing silently and silently were far behind.

Sure enough, Mandi is Mandi, Iemitsu said with disdain, but when he thought of the scene of tens of thousands of people standing in silence in Nancheng, Iemitsu felt awe-inspiring.

At this time, he already felt that the defeat of the 20,000 standing soldiers was not unfair.

The shogunate army was basically attacking their opponents.

I jumped in without knowing anything.

As the saying goes, how can you be undefeated if you don't know yourself and the enemy?

Iemitsu sighed in his heart.

He was careless and lost Jingzhou.

He was deceived by the rumors of Akito in the past.

In an instant, Iemitsu found another excuse for his failure.

Hundreds of cavalrymen galloped towards Pingchuan Gate from the west.

The red flag leading the way had a big word "Zhao" on it.

Sure enough, the enemy chieftain was coming.

Iemitsu looked at it carefully in the telescope, but he couldn't see clearly in the telescope.

Zhao Lie, surrounded by his retinue, came to the front of the Kaxinqian Corps.

Now the Kaxinqian Corps had already lined up on horseback to greet the master.

"Your Majesty, Jia Xin led his army to advance north and east, burning down all the villages and temples along the way.

He defeated four Japanese sieges and suffered 83 casualties.

Now he returns to report to your Majesty."

Jia Xin urged his horse forward to salute Zhao Lie and report loudly.

Zhao Lie returned a military salute and looked at the more than 1,000 Qianzong soldiers who were covered in dust.

"Very good.

You can lead more than a thousand people across the Japanese pirate territory for thousands of miles without defeat.

Your reputation will be recorded in the history books in the future."

Zhao Lie smiled.

Jia Xin also smiled with his yellow teeth exposed, and he bowed respectfully and saluted.

Now he is no longer the down-and-out knight slave.

The power of commanding more than a thousand people is reflected in him.

He has some shadows of the prince of the Yehe clan.

Of course, he is still extremely respectful when he sees Zhao Lie.

After all, he knows that all this It was given to him by Zhao Lie.

If Zhao Lie wanted to, he could return to his days as a slave in one night.

At this moment, dust started to rise in the north, and a large group of cavalry came galloping towards them.

Iemitsu was greatly moved at this time.

Could it be that reinforcements from any daimyo have arrived?

It is not impossible.

The general of the Ming army in front of him only has two thousand riders.

If the reinforcements can take the opportunity to kill him under his horse. . .

Iemitsu didn't dare to think about it, if Akira was killed in battle.

He could basically be sure that the Ming army would collapse, the Edo shogunate's crisis would be resolved immediately, and he could even take the opportunity to pursue and achieve a great victory.

But Iemitsu's idea was beautiful, but the reality was extremely cruel, because when the cavalry approached in the distance, the red flag of the Ming army was flying, not the family crest of any daimyo.

This time Nan Yong led his troops back to the army.

When the two Ming armies came together, there were endless shouts of victory.

Whether it was the Han cavalry or the Jurchens and Mongolian cavalry under Jiaxin's command, they all raised their arms and shouted for victory, and the atmosphere was extremely lively.

The cheers spread across the open fields and reached the Hirakawa gate, making Iemitsu's face turn pale.

Anyone who celebrated victory under the eyes of the enemy would be extremely resentful, let alone Iemitsu, the general who ruled Japan.

Iemitsu looked at the large gates on the top of the city and pointed with his hand.

"Use big cannons to bombard the Ming army.

We can't let them be so noisy."

The general's face froze when he heard this.

After hesitating for a moment, he bowed deeply and said, "The general doesn't know something.

These big cannons are all old-fashioned cannons.

The range is less than three miles, and the Ming army is all four miles away, so..."

The general served secretly looked at Iemitsu, but he knew that the general had an extremely violent temper.

Sure enough, Iemitsu was furious, "I have spent hundreds of thousands of silver coins making cannons over the years, but you are saying that the cannons on Edo Castle have a range of less than three miles..."

Iemitsu's eyes widened in anger.

Pointing his halberd at him, the general was trembling all over.

He wanted to refute but did not dare.

"Ahem, the general doesn't know something.

The shogunate spent all its money to buy long-range cannons and have them on the ship.

The cannons used in city defenses such as Edo Castle haven't had time to be replaced yet, ahem."

Sakai Tadashi had no choice but to explain that this really had nothing to do with these generals.

In order to build Nanman's large ships and cannons, the shogunate could be said to have exhausted all their money to cope with it.

How could they afford to replace the large cannons used to defend the city?

Therefore, it is not surprising that the large cannons in Edo Castle and other places are not powerful enough to shoot far.

When Sakai Tadashi said this, Tokugawa Iemitsu also reacted.

He heard the sound of Mukai Tadakatsu and dozens of Nanman warships who were buried in the sea.

He let out a long sigh and felt great pain in his heart.

He was mourning the loss of his good generals and the wasted money.

Let these Ming people in front of you make a fuss.

Tokugawa Iemitsu flipped his sleeves and turned to go down to the city.

He didn't want to watch Akito's celebration here.

It was too irritating to him, Japan's general who conquered barbarians, and made him lose face.

On Honshu Island, a force of 20,000 Japanese soldiers besieged the de facto capital of Japan, Edo, and defeated the 20,000-strong Japanese shogun.

The road reinforcements rescued him.

At this time, the same scene was happening in the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

Azig Abatai led 60,000 cavalry to invade from the northwest of Ji Town.

They were unstoppable along the way.

This time Chongzhen and the ministers of the Ming Dynasty reacted very quickly.

The last experience showed that the five major battalions of the capital were no match for Jiannu.

They were scum when they went out to fight in the city.

So who can expel Jiannu, even if it is a threat?

Stop talking, mobilize troops from all over the country to serve the king, especially Denglai.

Although there are many conflicts with the court and they are wary of each other, if that man comes to Beijing to serve the king, even the emperor and his ministers will probably be much more stable.

When the news from Jizhen reached the capital, and it was reported that nearly 100,000 slaves had broken through the customs, the Emperor Qin's imperial edict immediately left the capital and headed west and south.

A few days later, an edict from King Qin was placed in front of Denglai Governor Chen Yingyuan, who was guarding Zhang Guoyuan.

The edict named Zhang Keda, the general town of Denglai, and Zhao Lie, the commander of Denglai Dusi, immediately took command of the army and set off from the sea to Tianjin.

Join the army and become the King of Qin.

Chen Yingyuan and Zhang Guoyuan looked at each other.

There was nothing wrong with this edict.

The problem was that Zhao Lie was still confronting Jiannu in Lushun.

As far as they knew, Zhao Lie brought all his close servants and even the troops of his base Jinghai Guards to Lushun, leaving only a thousand elite soldiers in full armor in Denglai.

It was obvious that these were the ones Zhao Lie left behind to guard the home.

No one can move, and Zhao Lie will be anxious to anyone who does.

There are soldiers from the remaining Dengzhou Guards, Weihai Guards and other guard posts, but they are all unarmored.

This was found out from many sources.

Zhang Keda even visited the nearby Dengzhou Guards and Jinghai Guards.

The weapons Yes, they have all the swords, guns and firepower, and they train very diligently, but they don’t have any armor.

This is also the reason why the imperial court and the governor of Denglai turned a blind eye to Zhao Lie's responsibility for the various guard posts.

It seems that the Zhao family really has no spare capacity to equip other guard posts with more than 20,000 troops.

In this way, Zhao Lie's real combat power is still There are only five thousand servants and three thousand troops from Jinghaiwei.

This is the bottom line of the court's tolerance.

In any case, as long as the servants do not exceed 10,000 and do not exceed the scale of Li Chengliang back then, then the court, which is now beleaguered on all sides, can completely ignore it and concentrate on dealing with the Jiannu in the east and the civil unrest in the west.

The Laizhao family can only wait until these two major enemies are removed.

Zhang Keda came to the governor's Yamen to receive the order.

Of course, the three of them had to discuss the number and scale of the troops sent to Denglai this time.

"The combined soldiers of Denglai Dengzhou Camp and Laizhou Camp can number 5,000 people, including 1,500 cavalrymen, all wearing armor.

These are all trained by the General over the past few years.

The General can say that this is the Denglai Dengzhou Camp.

The most elite soldiers since Laikai Town.

This time the capital is in urgent need, and I intend to send the entire army to the capital. " As expected, Zhang Keda was a loyal minister and good general of the Ming Dynasty.

He did not avoid the battle or shirk the battle.

He simply decided to send the entire army to attack King Qin of Gyeonggi.

"Sir Zhang is indeed the mainstay of the Ming Dynasty.

I accept my respect."

Chen Yingyuan bowed and saluted.

He watched with his own eyes as Zhang Keda took out the horses and armor from Zhao Lie.

For many years, he ignored the common affairs and buried his head every day.

In the military camp, they were fed and housed with the soldiers.

In a short time, Denglai returned to its former size of five thousand soldiers.

This is one of the most loyal generals Chen Yingyuan has ever seen.

Now, even though he knows that the capital is dangerous, he still accepts orders with courage.

How can he not be admired?

"Mr.

Chen, thank you very much.

The Zhang family has been favored by the emperor.

At this time of crisis for the emperor and father, Zhang Keda dare not accept the order and go to war."

Zhang Keda hurriedly returned the gift.

"Ahem, cough, cough, Master Zhang, you see Master Zhao Liezhao is not in Denglai at this time, who should be invited to receive this imperial edict."

Zhang Guoyuan also has his own worries at this time.

Zhao Lie is not in Denglai.

How do you say this imperial edict is promulgated?

"Zhao Lie is now sitting in Denglai and fighting against the two blue banners of Jiannu in Jinzhou.

In fact, he has also restrained part of Jiannu's troops.

Now the person who takes charge of military affairs in Denglai on his behalf is his favorite general Huang Han, who is also his direct general.

First person."

Zhang Keda knew something about the situation of the Polu Army, and Lan Mingshan, who was in Shuicheng, revealed it to him intentionally or unintentionally.

"It's just that Huang Han, let alone Zhencheng, has not even set foot in Shuicheng now."

Chen Yingyuan and Zhang Guoyuan understood as soon as they heard Zhang Keda's words that they were extremely wary of the imperial court.

"Therefore, if we want to issue an edict, we can only recruit Lan Mingshan, who is stationed in Shuicheng."

Chen Yingyuan sighed, the Ming Dynasty's most capable army had reached such a stalemate with the imperial court, which really left him, the governor of Denglai, speechless.

However, Zhao Lie's troops did indeed conquer the east and west, and everything they did was beneficial to the Ming Dynasty.

They repeatedly defeated Jiannu and wiped out hundreds of thousands of rebels.

Even if he sat in Zhao Lie's position, he could only do this for the Ming Dynasty.

However, the court and the emperor were constantly suspicious, so it was no wonder that Zhao Lie was disloyal.

Of course, Chen Yingyuan could only slander him in his heart and would never say another word.

He could not afford to interfere with this matter. s: Thanks for the rewards of Eternal Love, Wanxiu Tianxia, ​​Jinghong 2016, Sanhuan Young Master 100, Kuaiji Mountain Ren 007, October Shou Ma, The Nameless King, Xinzhou District, Tianhu Island Master, and others Old friends will not describe them one by one.
