The Han army changed its direction and turned to attack the four kingdoms and Kyushu, which also made other Japanese daimyo panic.
The daimyo in Shikoku and Kyushu, such as Choso Gabu Motochin, Ryuzoji Takanobu, and Shimazu Yoshihisa, are the least calm daimyo. They were also unable to calm down at all, and they were beaten.
The territory of a few of them!
If these territories were lost, then they would still be famous in name only!
Daimyos such as Chosogabu Motochin, Ryuzoji Takanobu, and Shimazu Yoshihisa waited for a while and then asked Takeda Shingen, the leader of the alliance, for help and asked him to send reinforcements to help.
Takeda Shingen had thought about agreeing to this request after careful consideration. It would be impossible not to agree to this request. If he did not agree, I am afraid that Choso Gabe Motochin, Ryuzoji Takanobu, Shimazu Yoshihisa and others would also
Will immediately withdraw from the alliance and return to aid.
However, at this time, Li Guangbi and Yan Zhuang, who were among Li and Tang's reinforcements, put forward a different view. In their opinion, instead of sending reinforcements back to rescue, it would be better to surround Wei and rescue Zhao.
First, there is the example of Wang Jian and Chang Yuchun attacking Shikoku Island. If they easily send out reinforcements, they may fall into the trap of others' encirclement and reinforcements.
Secondly, Li Guangbi and Yan Zhuang also saw an opportunity in this, an opportunity to defeat the Han army.
Although this time the Han army went to attack Shikoku Island and Kyushu Island, it also means one thing. It means that Bai Qi, Fu Youde, Zhao She, you are bluffing now, and the real strength in their hands is definitely not what they show.
So much came out.
In the view of Li Guangbi and Yan Zhuang, instead of risking the rescue of Shikoku Island and Kyushu Island, it is better to take this opportunity to attack Bai Qi, Fu Youde, and Zhao She's troops to weaken the effective strength of the Han army in Japan. As long as the weakening
Only with this strength can we have a chance to drive the Han army out of the Japanese country.
Judging from the current situation, even if they, Li Tang, help the Japanese, the Han army will still have a greater chance of victory in the battle with the Japanese army. But if Li Guangbi and Yan Zhuang's plan succeeds this time
, once the effective strength of the Han army in the Japanese country was weakened, they might not be able to design a plan to make both the Han army and the Japanese country suffer losses.
After Oda Nobunaga sent troops to invade Xuzhou, Li Tang also began to notice the existence of the Japanese state. When he was unable to make a breakthrough against Qin Zheng, although he had the idea of annexing the Japanese state, he was not aware of the situation of the Japanese state at that time.
I really don’t know much about it, so it’s definitely impossible to hit someone just because I want to. At least you have to understand the person’s situation first.
But just when Li Tang was collecting information about the Japanese country, the Han Dynasty had already taken the lead. Li Tang definitely couldn't compete with the Han Dynasty for the Japanese country's territory at this time, so he settled for the next best thing and cut it from the Japanese country.
I came back from a trip to Hokkaido.
But now, if it is really possible to plan to inflict losses on both the Japanese and Han armies, Li Tang may not have the chance to conquer Japan alone. To be more precise, what Li Tang wants is not to conquer Japan alone, but to occupy Japan alone.
the benefits of.
Li Shimin, Li Guangbi, Yan Zhuang and other senior officials of Li and Tang Dynasties could clearly see that if they could really defeat this Han expeditionary force, they were at least seven levels sure that the Han people would not send a second expeditionary force.
Already.
After all, the Han Dynasty is still in harmony among itself. How can these princes have so much leisure to send out expeditionary forces to conquer Japan again and again, just to grab some benefits!
For the Han princes, the Japanese country had no other value at all except those resources. After all, with the ancient transportation conditions, the Han princes simply could not realize their rule over the Japanese country. Even if they really sent troops to conquer this place
, but within a few years, trouble will inevitably arise.
In ancient times, when transportation was inconvenient, it didn't mean that once you conquered the territory, it was definitely yours. Just because you conquered the territory, it didn't necessarily mean that you could rule it.
In fact, even Li Tang is far closer to the Japanese country than the Han Dynasty is to our country. However, it is only a little bit on the map, but if you actually travel by boat, it will take a long time.
Day! Therefore, even if Li Tang really occupied the territory of Japan, although it was possible, it would actually be difficult to achieve stable rule here.
In ancient times, with such backward transportation, these island countries did not have no advantages. At least in a sense, they were safer.
It is precisely because of this that Li Shimin was actually not interested in the territory where he was located, but in Japan's gold and silver mines and other resources, as well as Japan's population. The reason why Li Shimin asked to cut off Hokkaido was really for this reason.
It's just the gold and silver mines on that land and the population of that land.
Of course, although Li Guangbi and Yan Zhuang had been malicious towards the Japanese country at this time, they certainly could not be like this on the surface. They still need the Japanese country to fight against the Han army in the front. Therefore, when making suggestions, they also replaced a
Nice words to surround Wei and save Zhao.
If Bai Qi, Zhao She, and Fu Youde had enough sense of crisis, the Han army that attacked Kyushu Island and Shikoku Island would naturally return to rescue them.
However, even though Li Guangbi and Yan Zhuang said so, it is certainly impossible for the daimyo from Shikoku and Kyushu to agree so easily, such as Choso Gabu Motochin, Ryuzoji Takanobu, Shimazu Yoshihisa, etc.
Especially Ryuzoji Takanobu and Shimazu Yoshihisa, these two daimyo on Kyushu Island, are you kidding me? It was the forces of Liu Bei and Dou Jiande from Qingzhou who attacked Kyushu Island. Even if Bai Qi, Zhao She and Fu Youde showed up, what happened?
Question, why did Guan Yu and Xue Wanche go to the rescue so easily?
They themselves are the representatives of a daimyo and a force. How could they not be aware of the intrigues between these princes? Although they are said to be allies, isn't this kind of alliance essentially used to deceive others?
When the time comes, even if the rescue is ostensibly agreed to, what's the problem if an "accident" happens on the way and is delayed for a month or two?
It is precisely because of this that among the great names of Japan, the only ones who are really anxious are Choso Gabu Motochin, Ryuzoji Takanobu, Shimazu Yoshihisa and other great names located in Shikoku and Kyushu. Among the remaining great names,
Among them, those with a long-term perspective are worried about the future of the Japanese country and their future. Those with a short-term perspective may look anxious on the surface, but in fact, they may be snickering in their hearts!
