A battle that was not too troublesome ended with a complete victory for the Han princes. Of the three thousand Japanese troops, one thousand were captured alive by the Han army, while the other two thousand died in the hands of the Han princes' coalition forces.
In this battle, more than ten Japanese generals were killed, and the important figure Nizi Qingjiu was captured alive.
In contrast, the Han Dynasty only lost less than a hundred people, and there was no casualty at the general level. The Han princes completely crushed the Japanese army in terms of military strength, generals, weapons and equipment, etc.
, it is naturally not surprising that such results can be achieved.
In other words, if such a victory cannot be achieved, then the big man should reflect on this aspect!
"Everyone, your troops must be quick. Before the Japanese can react, our army should attack the surrounding counties with all its strength and establish a firm foothold in Japan!" After the war, Bai Qi didn't even do any inventory, and just went straight to the war.
He spoke to the generals under the command of each prince.
Bai Qi has a huge appetite and is very ready to take over the entire Izumo Kingdom and directly deal with the Nizi clan before the Japanese country reacts.
To the south of Nizi is the territory of the Mori clan, and to the north is the territory of the Oda clan. Even if they don't know much about the situation in Japan now, they also know that Oda Nobunaga is the strongest clan in Japan.
Power. Previously, the Japanese attacked the Han Dynasty Xuzhou, and the leader behind it was Oda Nobunaga.
If Oda Nobunaga can be eliminated, even if it cannot directly defeat Japan's courage, it can still dampen Japan's courage.
Therefore, Bai Qi's next goal is to completely eliminate the Nizi clan. By that time, Japan will also react. What Bai Qi has to do is to defeat Oda Nobunaga head-on at that time and prepare for the war against Japan.
Take the most solid step.
"What General Bai Qi said makes sense! However, if we want to achieve the greatest effect, it is better to attack from multiple directions!" Chen Deng said thoughtfully.
"Yes, this is exactly what Yuan Long said. We will attack from many directions. If we are caught by surprise, it will be difficult for the Japanese country to compete!" Gongsun Yan also spoke in agreement.
Hearing this, as a general, Bai Qi may not be so keen in some aspects, but as a counselor, Chen Ping inadvertently glanced at Chen Deng, Gongsun Yan and others. These guys were really impatient. They wanted to get there just after they arrived.
Separated from them!
However, this kind of thing is normal. After all, the Jin army is powerful, and the number of troops sent this time is equivalent to the combined strength of these families. If they stay with the Jin army, most of the benefits will be lost to the Jin army.
So, it is normal to want to go out independently.
Moreover, Chen Ping looked at these people again, guessing whether these people had already discussed it in private!
After some wrangling, the princes' purpose of dividing their troops was achieved. The Jin army attacked in the direction of Izumo and Ohara counties, Liu Bei attacked in the direction of Shenmen and Fanshi counties, Zhu Yuanzhang took Renduo county, Dou Jiande, and Zhao Kuangyin took Qiulu.
, Kazutsuki, Shimane County.
Speaking of which, for a small place like Japan, even the entire Izumo Kingdom cannot compare with a single county in the Han Dynasty, let alone the many counties divided into the Yun Kingdom. They are also counties, but
There is no way to compare with Dahan's, not even Dahan's counties.
At the same time, Bai Qi also ordered the infantry troops still within the Han Dynasty to speed up and prepare to set sail in batches.
After deliberation among many generals and counselors, Bai Qi and the chief generals of other princes also reached another resolution, which was to fully enter the military control system in the territories occupied by the Japanese country in the future.
At this point, it is mainly due to food and grass considerations. It is impossible for them to get food and grass from the Han Dynasty. After all the infantry troops arrive, the food and grass needed for the 200,000 troops will be transported back and forth from the Han Dynasty. This is definitely not the case.
A realistic thing.
Therefore, the only way, and also the best way, is to feed the enemy.
Collect all the grain and grass owned by the Japanese people and distribute it to them per head every day. After leaving enough grain for the next year, all the rest is called military ration for the Han army.
This incident will inevitably cause resistance. However, this kind of resistance is not a big deal! Wherever there is resistance, there will be oppression, and even where there will be killing!
Bai Qi left this matter to Chang Yuchun, and Chang Yuchun has never been a soft-hearted person. It can even be said that he has a little killing factor in his bones.
In just three days, thousands of people were directly executed by Chang Yuchun, and the number of residents in the city was reduced by less than half. With so many people, many were implicated, and there were even
Many people were killed by mistake, but if they were killed by mistake, they were killed by mistake. So what?
Before setting off, Li Xiang had already hinted to the main generals that it was okay to use some "appropriate" means as long as it was necessary.
Moreover, Chang Yuchun was so ruthless this time because he wanted to scare the monkeys. They have only captured this one city for the time being. If they can't suppress even this small number of people, then I will capture the entire Izumo.
If we attack the Japanese country, or even attack more territory of the Japanese country, what will we do if these people resist?
Therefore, it is necessary to use killings at this time to create a sufficient deterrent effect. Let others see the consequences of resistance, so that they can worry less after capturing more territory.
Next, in the battle to attack Izumo and Ohara counties, Bai Qi did not take action personally. He had so many famous generals under his command, and it was not an important battle. It was not the time for him to take action. More accurately
He said that he was not qualified to appear in such a small fight.
Lian Po, one of the two lieutenants, and Wang Jian, the military champion this time, divided their troops into two groups and attacked Izumo and Ohara counties respectively.
Moreover, Bai Qi may not be so keen in other aspects, but when using troops, his arrangements are indeed comprehensive. The generals who followed Lian Po into battle were basically senior generals, while those who followed Wang Jian into battle were
, basically all the newcomers who emerged from this imperial examination.
In this way, it is possible to avoid as much as possible the situation where Wang Jian cannot suppress the generals under his command. After all, although Wang Jian's ability is strong enough, which Bai Qi also recognizes, he is still a newcomer after all, and his subordinates have no outstanding achievements.
, if he is the leader, those generals with many senior qualifications may not necessarily obey him!
