Chapter 373: The Talent of the Eastern Japanese Famous General
Chapter 373: The talents of famous Japanese generals
After Dugu and the 150,000 bloody Hetao elites broke through Ruzhou, they did not take any rest and regrouped, and went straight to Wuyou County. The more than 20,000 Eastern Japanese army here had already been surrounded by the bloody cavalry led by Xin Ke.
There was no way to escape, but facing the incoming Loop army, it seemed very difficult to defend. There were strong enemies outside and no reinforcements. Watanabe Shimo felt that he had aged several years. As for
The Fourteenth Guardsman was even more worried and confused.
"Shuai Xin, what's going on here? Did that boy Watanabe Shimo escape?" Xue Sha laughed and said as soon as he saw the letter.
Xin Ke also smiled: "Can they escape? The cavalry of Ananda Wangmei and Ubanju have been watching them around the county, and I also have a cavalry of ten thousand to keep Zeng Dan here. Unless they have wings,
, Otherwise, don’t even think about running away, what’s going on with you over there?” This time he led the Scarlet Cavalry, which was not his direct lineage. The three 10,000 cavalry commanders were Ananda Wangmei Ubandrub and Ciliu under Xue Qingcheng’s command.
Zeng Dan.
Dugu smiled and said: "Fortunately, the 50,000 Northeastern Allied Forces, except for Yelu Minghui who took away a few thousand cavalry, the rest stayed behind. All the people in the city were also killed."
Xinke smiled nonchalantly, but then whispered: "Are those confidential enough?"
Dugu also whispered: "No problem, I asked Song Zhong, my old subordinate from Yizhou, to escort him personally. Nearly a hundred carts were seized from Ruzhou City and passed through Luozhou, Kangzhou and Hanzhou. This road passed through Yinfeng Castle
, we are relatively familiar with this stretch of road, and the Li family has a good relationship with us, so we probably won’t cause any trouble.”
Xinke nodded: "That's good. I hope this time won't be like last time."
Xue Sha carefully looked at the Wuyou County in front of him. This is a medium-sized county with a city wall less than two feet high. This was not a major military town before, so the city wall was also made of blue bricks, presumably covered with loess.
If it is a cavalry, it will naturally be difficult to face such a city wall, but Dugu leads 100,000 Hetao elites. Even if there are 20,000 Eastern Japanese troops in the city, it will be easy to capture the county seat.
Dugu also observed it carefully, and then said: "It's getting late today, why not rest all night and win it in one go tomorrow morning."
After Dugu and Xuesha defeated Ruzhou City, they rushed towards Wuyou County non-stop. However, the distance between the two was not close, so it was already afternoon when they arrived. After a night of fighting and a half-day march, the Hetao
Although the army was elite, it was now exhausted, so Dugu took advantage of the situation and proposed to attack the city the next day.
Xin Ke laughed loudly: "I have long heard that Du Shuai is invincible in attacking the city, but I have never had the opportunity to meet him. I will appreciate Du Shuai's clever tricks tomorrow."
Dugu didn't take it seriously: "It's just a rumor that everything is invincible. However, we still need to make some preparations before that. Long Zhishan!"
"The general is here!" Long Zhishan quickly stepped out of the queue and said.
"There may be mice digging holes tonight, so please keep an eye on me."
That night, the Eastern Japanese soldiers came to attack the camp as Dugu had expected. However, Long Zhishan had already prepared. The bandits who were born in the Yizhou village are best at night attacks. Long Zhishan was very good at guarding against the opponent's sneak attacks.
Naturally, he is also very clever. When the Fourteenth Guards led three thousand dead soldiers into the Hetao camp in the dark, they were surrounded by 20,000 Hetao infantry led by Long Zhishan before he could take action. Long Zhishan
Not bothering to talk nonsense with him, a few rounds of rockets passed by, and the three thousand Japanese soldiers were suddenly plunged into a sea of fire.
The Fourteenth Guards originally planned to set fire to the company camp, so each soldier prepared a lot of fire starters, but he didn't know that he didn't burn the other party. The three thousand soldiers of his own were trapped in a cocoon. Fortunately, the Fourteenth Guards stayed at the end.
On the other hand, he was also quick to spot the opportunity. As soon as he found out that his plan had been known to the other party, he left without hesitation. Before Long Zhishan's army encircled him, he actually let him sneak back with the last few hundred remaining soldiers.
Dugu yawned boredly and said lazily: "This kid Long Zhishan, isn't he just a few little mice, actually made such a big noise. However, he is indeed very clean and neat, and the fire is also burning quite a bit.
It's a good sign if you have momentum."
However, what Dugu didn't expect was that Dongbo didn't give up after a sneak attack failed. He simply gathered more than 10,000 soldiers and stormed the Hetao Camp half an hour later. Although Dugu expected that the other party would definitely attack tonight, he didn't
Thinking that Watanabe Shimota actually killed a carbine. At this time, the soldiers in the Hetao had just cleaned the battlefield and were preparing to rest. When their defense was at their lowest, Watanabe Shimo's carbine immediately killed the Loop army by surprise. Because it was in the dark night,
The Xingke and Xuesha cavalry did not dare to use them, but instead stayed at the camp and sent people to inquire about the news. Fortunately, the quality of the Hetao army was indeed outstanding. Although the Dongbo raid caused great chaos, they soon
The inherent order was restored. Under the personal leadership of the angry Dugu Yuming, after a hard battle, the 10,000 Japanese soldiers who attacked were finally strangled.
At this time, Dugu ignored the order he had given in the afternoon to attack the city the next day. After the camp was packed up, tens of thousands of troops immediately surrounded Wuyou County. However, after Dugu laid siege to the city, he discovered that
There were no Japanese soldiers left in Wuyou County. It turned out that when the 10,000 soldiers raided the Hetao camp again, Watanabe Shimo had already led the only 7,000 soldiers left in the city to escape. At that time, the Hetao cavalry wanted to avoid causing unnecessary chaos.
In order to prevent Watanabe Shimota from taking the opportunity to sneak attack on him, he kept his troops stationary, thus allowing Watanabe Shimomo and his seven thousand soldiers to escape.
The Battle of Wuyou County has become the most shameful memory for the three famous generals in Hetao. However, due to the evil reputation of Xue Kill and others, both the military and political parties in Hetao rarely mentioned it. However, the three men of Dugu Xue Kill and Xin Ke were rarely mentioned.
It is indeed a shame that cannot be washed away. One hundred thousand elite infantrymen from Hetao, 50,000 elite cavalry, plus 30,000 bloody plateau cavalry and three famous generals from Hetao personally led the siege of a city with walls no more than two feet high and no more than 20,000 soldiers.
In Sanli County, not only did they lose more than 10,000 soldiers, but they actually allowed 7,000 of the opponent's soldiers to escape without any danger. No matter what the reason was, Dugu and the others were extremely ashamed.
"Massage the city! Massacre the city! Leave no one behind!" Dugu stood on top of the city tower and said viciously. But after thinking about it, he still called Long Zhishan over and whispered: "Old rules, don't show your flaws."
Long Zhishan nodded in agreement and hurriedly retreated. Dugu was in a bad mood now, and he didn't want to get into trouble with his boss.
Dugu walked to the city tower with a pale face, and saw Xue Sha and Xin Ke turning around with gloomy faces. When the three of them saw this, they all looked helpless.
After a long while, Dugu said with shame: "Commander Xue, Commander Xin, it was my mistake last night, but it made the two commanders laugh."
Shinke quickly said: "Commander, don't say that. In fact, we were too negligent last night. If we let the cavalry step up patrols, Watanabe Shimo and the 14th Konoe will definitely have difficulty escaping."
Xue Sha also nodded: "This Watanabe Shimo is indeed a talented general. We have always had smooth sailing during this period, especially when we faced the Eastern Japanese Dynasty. Therefore, we were also negligent. If we hadn't occupied it this time
With a strength advantage of nearly ten times, I am afraid we will be the losers. We should not underestimate the heroes of the world."
Xin Ke also opened his mouth and said: "With great reputation, there are no empty warriors. Watanabe Shimo and Kato Taka are the pillars of the East Japan on land and water, so naturally they will not be a pustule."
In this battle, Watanabe Shimo's military talent was indeed extraordinary. Watanabe Shimo knew that with only the low defense power of Wuyou County and the 20,000 troops in his hands, he could not stop the siege of the Hetao army. Therefore,
From the beginning, he did not expect to defend the county seat. The first sneak attack was still unexpected by Dugu, but the return attack half an hour later really surprised many people.
However, this was not his brilliance. His brilliance was that he invested half of his troops as bait in this round of attacks, while he led 7,000 soldiers to abandon all their baggage and escape without hesitation.
During this battle, he showed extremely brilliant vision, both in his judgment of the situation on both sides and in the implementation of strategic plans.
"Well, this time is also a reminder for us. Fortunately, the loss this time is not too big. Otherwise, if we make these low-level mistakes when playing against the three Northeastern countries in the future, it will really be a disaster.
I'm so ashamed." The bloody killing finally set the tone for this incident. Dugu and Xinke stopped talking, but their faces were still as gloomy as ever, and they still needed to wash away the shame with the blood of their enemies.
After taking down Ruzhou and Wuyou County and pacifying the two arms of the Northeastern Allied Forces in Xuzhou City, the Hetao army did not launch a strong attack on Xuzhou. After all, there were still more than 100,000 Northeastern elites in the city. Although the walls of Xuzhou City were broken, they were
Such a strong defensive force was enough to turn Xuzhou into a huge meat grinding mill. Haotian did not want his men to become meat paste ground under this millstone, so the army still withdrew back to Zhuli County. As for
Around Xuzhou, there are at least 50,000 cavalry patrolling at all times, and they are not afraid that the other party will escape.
What Haotian has to do now is to wait, wait for the main force of the Paradise Empire to be transferred to start a war with Tiandu Shengjing, wait for the Li family to stabilize their hometown so that they can use their hands, wait for the Northeastern Allied Forces in Xuzhou City to run out of food, wait for
The Huai River navy can be deployed along the river.
Now that the Holy Sect of Paradise has been established as a country, although thunder fell from the sky on the day of the founding of the country, Cheng Xianqing, a generation of heroes, will never give up his dream of being an emperor so easily. Now that he has proclaimed himself emperor, in order to suppress domestic opposition and eliminate the founding of the country
What happened that day meant that Cheng Xianqing was bound to expand outwards. And his targets could only be the Huai River, Tiandu Shengjing and Dahu Road areas. He didn't want to think about Yuzhou Road. More than 300,000 soldiers were stationed in Hetao.
Here, even the Northeastern Allied Forces have to retreat. How many troops can the Paradise Empire have to fill in here?
Emperor Zhongxing still wants to preserve his strength and sit on the mountain to watch tigers fight. However, the Holy Sect of Paradise established the country and Cheng Xianqing proclaimed himself emperor. No matter what Emperor Zhongxing thinks, he must take the initiative to crusade. Otherwise, if this happens, Yizhou may be destroyed.
The Song family will also follow suit and proclaim themselves emperor, and then the situation in the empire will become even more fester. However, according to Emperor Zhongxing's virtue, he should not take the initiative to send troops, but just let people shout twice, unless the Paradise Kingdom attacks Tiandu Saint
At the foot of the city wall of Beijing.
"Hey, when will the Huaishui Navy be transferred to the Dahe River? Without the help of the Huaishui Navy, and only relying on the 10,000 water divisions in the Hetao, if the Dongwa Navy enters the Dahe River again, we will not be able to defend it at all.
Well." Haotian said to himself.
There are quite a few naval combatants trained privately in the Hetao, but there are only a few dozen warships. With the current situation in the Hetao, it is indeed difficult to develop a navy. There are not many lakes in the three roads of the Hetao.
The training of the navy can only be concentrated on the big river. Although a lake was dug near Kezhou to train the navy, it was ultimately unable to compare with the southeastern region and the East China Sea. Moreover, Haotian now does not want outsiders to know that the Hetao secretly
Regarding the training of naval forces, Haotian did not purchase warships from Huai Shui. The time was not yet ripe, so he had to take his time.
Haotian stood alone in the yard, picked a winter jasmine at random, and tore off the petals one by one. This is what Xuzhou is like now, with the Hetao peeling off all the prefectures and counties outside Xuzhou bit by bit.
Let Xuzhou become an isolated city. The three northeastern countries are now busy dispatching reinforcements and contacting the Eastern Japanese Dynasty. They are obviously making preparations on both sides. If the Holy Sect of Paradise takes the initiative to attack the Hetao army, then they will prepare to move their troops south. If the Holy Sect of Paradise takes the initiative to attack the Hetao army, they will prepare to move their troops south.
If they have the idea of attacking Tiandu Shengjing or Huai River, then they are going to use the Eastern Japan Navy to bring the more than 100,000 troops in Xuzhou City back to Youyun Sixteenth State.
Haotian smiled and said: "Haha, this army of more than 100,000 people is already a turtle in the urn, how can I let them escape so easily?"
"Why are you talking to yourself here alone? You have been so nervous all day long, which makes people feel scared." Zhang Yuewan's voice came from the door, followed by Xin Jiao and others. They didn't know where they were just now.
We were playing somewhere, and there were actually a few drops of sweat on their faces.
Haotian smiled indifferently: "You guys are gone. My husband and the military advisor are also busy with things. What else can I do if I don't talk to myself?"
"Who told you not to go out with us?" Xian Lianchen tilted his neck and said.
Haotian said helplessly: "As a grown man, what do I look like when I go out with you guys? There are no ordinary people in Zhuli County now, so why are we talking about shopping?"
Xian Lianchen said disdainfully: "Okay, you have a point no matter what you say."
