Yang Peng stood up, walked to the gate, looked at the night in the distance, and the battle between heaven and man was going on in his mind. As Yan Yun's mind, he naturally hoped to do everything possible to suppress the Japanese, but as the king of Yan, he
He couldn't help but wonder if he was doing the right thing? As Wu Xing said, the Japanese had never offended Yanyun. On the contrary, Goryeo had tried to take advantage of the situation and helped Goryeo to deal with the Japanese. I'm afraid that in the eyes of most Yanyun soldiers and civilians,
It was an inexplicable and incomprehensible move. Yang Peng couldn't help but feel that he was so influenced by Yan Yun that he made the wrong decision?
Then I thought: In the past, the Goryeo people were ambitious and posed a threat to Yanyun and the entire Central Plains, so it was natural to deal with Goryeo. Now, although the Japanese have not shown hostility to Yanyun, their invasion of Goryeo has exposed their ambition and annexation.
Goryeo is obviously not the end of their ambitions, but it will only further fuel their ambitions. After annexing Goryeo, they will use troops against the Liao Kingdom. After the Liao Kingdom is destroyed, I, Yanyun, will naturally be their next target.
Turning around, he glanced at Ye Qi Guanyin, who was frowning slightly, and asked: "What do Guanyin think?" Ye Qi Guanyin raised his head and glanced at Chen Xiao, and said, "I have some opinions, but with my
It’s hard to say who I am.” Yang Peng walked up to Ye Yi Guanyin and said with a smile: “If you have anything to say, just say it directly. I have to think about my identity so much. You only have one identity now, and that is my wife!”
Everyone couldn't help but smile, but Ye Qi Guanyin looked happy and said: "Since you asked me to say it, then I will say it." After a pause, he glanced at everyone, "Japanese people, a mere island country, dare to
The invasion of Goryeo shows that their ambition far surpasses all other countries! Their desires will never be satisfied. After annexing Goryeo, they will definitely want to annex the Liao Kingdom. After destroying the Liao Kingdom, they will naturally not be satisfied and will only become more arrogant.
!Then their next target will naturally be us, Yan Yun!" Everyone couldn't help but feel shocked.
Ye Qi Guanyin continued: "Although the Japanese are not a scourge now, they are a hidden danger. Sooner or later they will become a serious concern for us! On the other hand, the Japanese, like the Mongols and the Liao Kingdom, have the desire to dominate the world. We Yanyun
Naturally, we would not be willing to succumb to others, so from this point of view alone, we and the Japanese are enemies rather than friends! Now at the critical moment of the Japanese expansion, we should not sit back and watch their rapid growth. We should try our best to prevent their growth, even
We must strangle them at this moment! This is a struggle for hegemony between countries. It is related to the rise and fall of the country and the well-being of billions of people! This kind of battle is extremely cruel and leaves no room for luck. Confucian good-neighborliness and friendship are also related to
Harmony is the most precious thing, and it is absolutely necessary. It will only harm ourselves!" Ye Qian Guanyin thought that everyone was influenced by Confucianism and felt that it was not appropriate to be enemies with the Japanese, so he added that sentence at the end.
Everyone was shocked when they heard Ye Qi Guanyin's words. They felt that these words were so right. Then they couldn't help but feel ashamed. They felt that their vision was too short-sighted. They only saw what was in front of them and were careless.
But he completely failed to see the general trend of the world in the future. Xiang Danian said: "What my sister-in-law said is absolutely true, we are really short-sighted!" The other people nodded one after another.
Yang Peng glanced at Yeqi Guanyin with approval, smiled and said to everyone: "Your opinions are not wrong, they are just looking at the problem from another angle." He walked up, turned around, and scanned everyone.
After taking a look at it, he asked: "After Guanyin's analysis, no one has any doubts, right?" Everyone looked at each other, clasped their fists together and said, "No more."
Yang Peng said: "Then we have to consider the next question, how to defeat the Japanese? The Japanese must not have paid much attention to us now. We can concentrate all our current forces to attack Kaijing!"
Everyone's eyes lit up, and Ye Qian Guanyin said excitedly: "There are not many Japanese troops in Kaijing. If we can attack Kaijing in one go, we will cut off the Japanese retreat, and those hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops will become turtles in the urn!"
Yang Peng walked to the middle of the hall and said: "It is not easy to do this. According to the information provided by Wu Xing, there are about 20,000 Japanese troops in Beijing, and our army currently only has 7,000 troops in Haizhou.
Riding, the large force is still above the sea, and it will take several days to arrive. If they wait for the arrival of the main force before taking action, the Japanese must have been prepared. The surprise attack on the capital will inevitably turn into an attack, and the large Japanese force will then rush
Come, then the situation will become unfavorable to our army. Therefore, we can only use the current 7,000 infantry and cavalry to make a surprise attack, but there is no certainty that 7,000 infantry and cavalry will attack Kaijing, which is guarded by 20,000 soldiers and horses. But this is not what we
What I’m really worried about, what I’m most worried about is that after we all march out, the Japanese troops from Jinchuan will come to raid Haizhou. If Haizhou is lost, it won’t be the Japanese who become the turtles in the urn, but we will become the turtles in the urn.”
After listening to Yang Peng's words, everyone couldn't help but think. The Koreans saw Yan Yunjun entering the city from a distance, and couldn't help but worry that they would close the city gate to prevent them from entering the city. They couldn't help but speed up their pace, and everyone could run away.
Panting, I hoped to escape into the city before the city gate was closed. However, the city gate was never closed, and more than ten thousand Goryeo people rushed into Haizhou City with their families and families.
When the Koreans arrived in the city, they sat down one after another, panting, and everyone's face showed a look of joy. Soon after, the Koreans saw many Sergeants Yanyun walking towards this side, and they couldn't help but become worried. But soon
This worry turned into emotion. Those Yanyun soldiers brought a lot of food and water and distributed them to them. When the Koreans accepted the food, many of them shed tears of shame and emotion.
His eyes turned to the other side. The Japanese army was massacred by the Yanyun Xuanjia Army and suffered heavy losses. Only two to three thousand remaining soldiers fled back to Jinchuan City. Nishino Chong, the deputy general of Cangjing Mutuo, watched as he fled back to the city in a hurry.
The remaining soldiers in the defeated general were shocked and unbelievable. He quickly asked the officers in the defeated army. When he heard the news that the Yanyun Army from the Central Plains suddenly appeared near Haizhou, he was shocked. However, when he heard that General Cangjing Mutuo
When he heard the news that the opponent's warrior had killed him with one move, his shock turned into horror. He really couldn't believe that with the general's martial arts skills, someone could kill him with one move. What a terrifying person that would be!
Xi Yechong calmed down and then thought about it. He felt that the sudden appearance of Yan Yun's army in Haizhou was not a trivial matter, and he must inform the general immediately. With this thought, Xi Yechong immediately gave an order to the herald beside him, ordering him to send the order as quickly as possible.
The news of the arrival of Yan Yun's army was reported to the general Sasuro Shigeo who was marching towards Xijing of Goryeo. The messenger shouted loudly and ran down. (Xijing of Goryeo is now Pyongyang)
Xiye Chong thought for a while, and ordered the scout captain to be led by him to lead all the scouts to conduct reconnaissance in the direction of Haizhou, and then ordered the whole city to be under martial law and prepare for battle. At this time, he thought of the thousands of Korean people in the city who had no time to escape, and murmured
He said: "These people are really a big hidden danger in the city!" As soon as he thought about this, a fierce look appeared in his eyes, and he gave instructions to an officer next to him. The officer gave a cheer and ran down.
Soon after, the wolf-like Japanese invaded every house and drove the Korean people out of their homes. There were cries and howls everywhere in the city. Driven by the Japanese, the Korean people stumbled toward the building in the city.
The small square gathered together. Soon, thousands of Korean people were gathered in the square in the city, surrounded by thousands of ferocious Japanese. The Koreans hugged each other in extreme fear, and the cries of children and women could be heard.
one slice.
I saw a Japanese officer waving his hand forward, and the surrounding Japanese sergeants immediately raised their swords and stepped forward, massacring the Korean people without explanation. They saw flesh and blood flying everywhere, screams and cries, and the flying blood reflected the Japanese.
With ferocious faces, the Koreans fell down one after another like slaughtered animals.
In less than a quarter of an hour, thousands of Goryeo people were slaughtered cleanly. The small square was piled with corpses, and the whole square was soaked with blood. The air was filled with the disgusting smell of blood. The dead children were still clinging to each other.
The strong man's head, which was holding his mother's neck and kneeling down to beg for mercy, was nowhere to be found.
His eyes turned to Kaijing.
Kaijing City, which was once prosperous and prosperous, and which the Korean people were extremely proud to think was comparable to Bianliang in the Central Plains, is now a withered and dilapidated scene. Many buildings in the city have been burned down, and ten of the houses are empty. The remaining Korean people are lingering on;
Occasionally, there would be noises, but they were not from the people of Goryeo, but from Japanese people drinking and reveling. At this moment, in Kaijing City, these Japanese people were the only ones who were really happy.
After the Japanese general Sasuro Shigeo easily captured Kaikyo without any bloodshed, he led the main army northward to pursue the pursuit, leaving only one of his generals named Hiromichi Fujita and 20,000 troops to guard the key chokepoint of Kaikyo.
It seems that the Khitan people have fled, and the Koryo people are not afraid of being defeated. The 20,000 troops and horses left by Fujita Hiromichi are enough to ensure that the opening of the capital is safe.
Fujita Hiromichi sat in the lobby of the temporary camp and wrote a letter. He called a subordinate, handed the letter to him, and ordered: "Give it to His Majesty the General." The subordinate bowed and agreed, untied the letter with both hands, and
Withdrew.
At this moment, a burst of laughter came from a distance. Fujita Hiromichi frowned, stood up, walked out of the hall, looked in the direction of the sound, and asked a senior samurai next to him: "Who is that person?"
Are you having fun?" The senior samurai glanced into the distance and replied: "Reporting to Your Majesty the General, the direction from which the sound came is supposed to be Fujita Mitsukazu's camp." Fujita Mitsukazu, Fujita Hiromichi's nephew, was originally in Iraq.
He sent him to learn martial arts. This time the Japanese invaded Goryeo in a big way, so he followed his uncle Fujita Hiromichi to Goryeo and became a senior samurai under Fujita Hiromichi.
When Fujita Hiromichi heard that he was his nephew, he couldn't help being furious and ordered: "Immediately give me an order to tell them not to make any noise!"
The senior samurai received the order and ran down. Soon after, the noise disappeared. Fujita Hiromichi sighed, shook his head, turned back to the hall, walked to the map stand hanging on the side, looked at the map and began to think.
.He was thinking about whether there were any loopholes in Kaijing's defense. If it were any other Japanese general, he would never consider this issue at this moment. After all, the Koreans were defeated like a mountain, and the general was leading his army to chase them north. This is where
What could happen to the Kaijing in the rear? However, Fujita Hiromichi was a cautious man and did not dare to be negligent.
…
After sunset that day, the land was dark. The Japanese soldiers guarding the south city gate were not surprised when they saw an army appearing in their field of vision. After all, in the past few days, teams of grain, grass, baggage and loot had been passing through Kaijing from north to south.
There is an endless stream of people, and everyone is used to it.
The army came to the city gate. The senior warrior who was responsible for guarding the city gate looked at the city gate by the light of the torch and the faint light of the stars and the moon. He saw a team transporting a large amount of food and grass, about 3,000 people.
The appearance is no different from all the previous teams escorting grain and grass.
I could only hear someone shouting in Japanese below: "We are subordinates of His Excellency Ueno Morunao. We have been ordered to escort grain and grass to the general's army. Please open the city gate as soon as possible!"
The senior warrior turned around and ordered his men to open the city gate, but his deputy, a mid-level warrior, dissuaded him and said: "Your Excellency, the general has an order. Anyone who wants to enter the city must show the command arrow, otherwise the general will not deal with it!" The senior warrior felt a chill in his heart!
, said somewhat unhappily: "Your Majesty General, you are too cautious, what could happen here!" Even so, he still raised his voice towards the outside of the city: "In compliance with the general's order, anyone who comes must show the command arrow before they can open the city gate.
!”
I saw a man coming out of the city, raising a long object in his right hand and saying loudly: "Here's the arrow."
In the dark night, the people on the city wall couldn't see clearly what he was holding. The senior warrior asked someone to put down the hanging basket, and the man put the thing in his hand into the hanging basket. The hanging basket was then pulled back to the city wall.
On the top, a low-level warrior took out the command arrow with both hands and presented it to the senior warrior. The senior warrior took the command arrow, checked it, and confirmed it was correct. He turned to the intermediate warrior and said: "There is no problem with the command arrow. You can open the city gate!" The intermediate warrior nodded.
He nodded and was about to give the order. Suddenly he remembered something and said urgently: "That's wrong!" As he spoke, he stared at the order arrow in the hand of the senior warrior.
The senior warrior didn't know what was going on and asked angrily: "What's wrong?" The mid-level warrior pointed to the command arrow in the hand of the senior warrior and said: "This command arrow was sent from the general's camp." The senior warrior didn't understand and asked
: "So what?" Intermediate Samurai said: "The grain transport team coming up from the south should be holding the command arrow issued by General Ueno Morunao's camp. How could it be this command arrow?"
The senior warrior also thought about this problem and felt a little strange, and asked: "What do you think is going on?" The intermediate warrior shook his head and said: "I don't know what is going on, but since the general wants us to be more cautious,
, let’s be more cautious. Sir, why don’t you ask them again.”
The senior samurai nodded, turned and asked: "Which group are you from?" The person who had spoken to the senior samurai before raised his voice: "We are under the command of Lord Ueno Morinao." The senior samurai asked again: "
There are three teams under your command, the left, center and right, under the command of Ueno Morinao. Which team are you from?"
The man at the bottom of the city didn't know how to answer, so he turned to look at the person behind him. The person behind him was wearing the Japanese armor, but it was King Yang Peng of Yan. Yang Peng frowned and said: "The Japanese asked this, obviously they doubt our identity.
"What should we do now?" the person in front asked. It turned out that this person was none other than Yang Peng who was sent to Korea to observe the martial arts of the Japanese. The martial arts stayed in Korea for a long time, and not only learned
He also learned the Korean language and the Japanese language. With deliberate efforts, he spoke Japanese much more fluently than the Korean language, just like the Japanese.
"Why don't you try it randomly and see if you can get it right?" Zhang Daniu said.
Yang Peng said: "The other party's words should be to test us. I'm afraid that the so-called three teams of left, middle and right are all wrong." He turned to Zhang Daniu and others and said: "Send the order and raid the city gate!" Yang Peng saw that the other party was trying to test us.
, we could not answer, so we decided to launch a surprise attack before the opponent could determine our identity.
Seeing the other party's delay in answering, the senior warriors on the city gate felt a little strange and felt that something was wrong, so they prepared to order their subordinates to prepare for battle.
At this moment, a sharp whistling sound suddenly came from below the city. The Japanese soldiers on the city wall were stunned. Before they could react, many people fell on their backs and fell to the ground, and screams were heard. On the shoulders of senior warriors
He was hit by an arrow and quickly ducked down to hide behind the wall. He saw that the intermediate warrior who was standing next to him just now was hit by an arrow in the chest and face. He was lying on his back on the ground with blood flowing all over the floor. There was no movement at all.
, I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart.
At this moment, they heard many trembling noises coming from the city wall, as if some metal object was thrown onto the city wall. The senior warrior immediately realized something and quickly looked around, and saw many people on the other side climbing up along the rope.
The senior warrior was shocked and shouted: "Get ready to fight, the enemy is coming! Get ready to fight, the enemy is coming!" Then he shouted to a low-level warrior: "Sing the alarm!" The low-level warrior responded hurriedly.
He made a sound and ran towards the alarm bell hanging not far away.
At this moment, another wave of arrows shot up from the city. Many of the Japanese soldiers who had just stood up were shot down. The rest were frightened and hurriedly retracted their bodies behind the wall.
Yanyun's assault troops climbed up the city wall through ropes and rushed into the middle of the Japanese. The Japanese hurriedly tried their best to resist, but they could not resist the wolves and tigers of Yanyun's army. They were chopped down in a pool of blood and retreated in a blink of an eye.
Suddenly, the south wall was in danger. At this moment, the sound of gongs representing enemy attacks rang loudly, echoing over the city, breaking the tranquility of the city and making it particularly harsh.
Fujita Hiromichi, who was patrolling near the South City Gate, suddenly heard a rapid warning sound coming from the South City Gate Tower. He was startled and quickly led his men towards the South City Gate.
When he rushed to the south gate, he saw only the silhouettes of people on the city wall in chaos. Our soldiers were almost unable to resist, and the enemy was about to seize the city wall! Fujita Hiromichi was quick to think, pointing to the wall above his head that was about to be lost, and shouted urgently
He ordered the senior warrior beside him: "Send rockets towards the city wall quickly!"
The senior warrior was shocked and said anxiously: "Your Excellency General, there is a lot of kerosene and gunpowder piled on the city wall. If rockets are fired..."
Fujita Hiromichi said: "I just want to ignite the gunpowder and kerosene and fire rockets quickly!" The senior samurai did not dare to say anything more, and immediately turned to his men and shouted: "Everyone listen to the order and fire rockets towards the city wall!" The Japanese soldiers
After hearing the order, they quickly took out the rockets with arrowheads tied with oilcloth from the quiver on their backs. Then two low-level warriors came up with torches and ignited the rockets in everyone's hands. The sergeants bent their bows and aimed arrows at the city head.
, and then released the arrow, and saw a rain of fire flying up the city wall and falling on the city wall. The city wall was originally very dark, but now it was shining brightly.
Suddenly, a ball of flames emerged from the city wall, which was particularly eye-catching in the dark night. The surrounding soldiers on both sides were startled by the sudden emergence of flames, and couldn't help but stop fighting and took a few steps back.
Fujita Hiromichi shouted to his soldiers: "Keep firing arrows!" The Japanese soldiers continued to fire arrows at the top of the city, and saw bursts of fire flying up to the top of the city, and balls of flames emerged on the top of the city.
The ignited kerosene cracked the earthen pots, and the burning kerosene flowed everywhere, igniting all the combustibles in its path; the flames burned more and more fiercely on the city head, and explosions occurred from time to time.
Either the earthen pot containing kerosene deflagrated, or the gunpowder barrel exploded after being ignited. The fire on the city was raging, like a continuous furnace, and it seemed to be out of control; Yan Yunjun continued to fight regardless of the flames.
They fiercely attacked the enemy, but the increasingly fierce flames finally stopped their attack.
At this time, a short horn sound came from outside the city, which was the order for Yan Yun's army to retreat. The Yan Yun army on the top of the city was blocked by the fierce fire and could no longer make any progress. At this time, the order to retreat was heard again, and immediately
They followed the rope and retreated from the city wall. At the same time, the Japanese also scrambled to escape down the city wall.
After a while, the kerosene, gunpowder, sulfur and other combustibles on the city wall burned completely. The entire city wall burned fiercely, and the flames shot up more than ten feet high. Every inch of the city wall was ravaged by flames, and the night sky was illuminated by flames.
Just like daytime.
Zhang Daniu led the attacking troops back to resume their duties, and said with a look of shame on his face: "My subordinates are incompetent and failed to break the city." Yang Peng asked: "How much was the loss?" Zhang Daniu said: "The loss is not big." Yang Peng glanced at Lie Li in front of him.
Looking at the burning city wall, he smiled and said: "I didn't expect that Fujita Hiromichi would be so decisive. He is a rare good general!" He turned to the people around him and said: "The opportunity has been lost. It is impossible to seize Kaijing. Pass on the order.
, withdraw to Haizhou immediately!" Everyone clasped their fists and promised.
Fujita Hiromichi watched the flames burning on the city wall. After a long time, the flames were basically extinguished. Fujita Hiromichi couldn't wait for the flames to completely extinguish and ordered thousands of men to board the city wall to guard. Thousands of Japanese soldiers stepped on the hot ground.
I climbed up the city wall and looked outside the city. I saw only the thick night, but not a single figure. After receiving the report, Fujita Hiromichi immediately climbed up the city wall and saw silence outside the city. However, Fujita Hiromichi did not dare to be careless at all.
, still ordered the four gates to guard with wide eyes, and then ordered the herald to report the news that Kaijing was attacked and almost fell to General Sajiro Shigeo.
What happened after all? Let’s look at the breakdown next time.
