Fujita Hiromichi naturally heard the blame in his nephew's tone, and he also felt a little regretful. However, there is no good regret medicine in the world. Even if his intestines were turned green at this moment, it would be of no use.
The scouts flew into Kaijing City, and then came to the front of Fujita Hiromichi and the others. He panted and said in a panic: "Sir, sir,..."
Fujita Mitsuru asked impatiently: "Did Musashi Ou capture Kaishu and wipe out all the Han people?" Then he said angrily: "Hey, he finally got this great credit! He made such a great contribution.
, the commendation from His Excellency the General is second best, I am afraid that even His Majesty the Emperor will show kindness and praise him! Hey, how come our luck is so bad, how come his luck is so good?" Mitsuhako Fujita looked envious and jealous.
Fujita Hiromichi and Nishino Chong couldn't help but have the same thoughts, but they didn't say it out loud. Nishino Chong even thought that not only did he lose Jinchuan, but also almost all his troops were wiped out. There was absolutely no credit for his contribution, and he was afraid that he would also be punished.
His Excellency the General and even His Majesty the Emperor reprimanded and even punished me. I can't help but feel worried when I think of this.
The scout said anxiously: "My lord, I guessed wrong. Musashi-sama did not capture Haizhou, let alone annihilate all the Han people." The three of them couldn't help but feel a little better. Fujita Hiromichi asked: "In other words, Musashi-sama is currently
A stalemate with the Han people in Haizhou?"
The scout shook his head and said anxiously: "Lord Musashi's army fought a fierce battle with the Han army under Haizhou City. They were defeated and are now in the process of escaping to Kaijing!"
The three of them were stunned on the spot and didn't react for a moment. Then they couldn't help but feel happy in their hearts, their faces moved with their hearts, and their faces couldn't help showing joy. Then they felt that they shouldn't be happy and quickly stopped their smiles.
Fujita Hiromichi asked the messenger: "You said that Lord Musashi was defeated. Is it true? Did you see it with your own eyes, or did you hear it from others?" The scout said, "I saw it with my own eyes at the gate of Haizhou City. As soon as I saw it
Master Musashi was defeated, so he came back quickly to report to you."
The three people looked at each other. Although they were happy that Musashi Xiong was defeated, they were also shocked that Yan Yun's army defeated Musashi Xiong's 100,000 troops in one battle. This result was completely different from their previous expectations. They only felt that Yan Yun's army had defeated Musashi Xiong's one hundred thousand troops in one battle.
The combat effectiveness of the Yun army seems to be much higher than previously expected, and it seems to be even more powerful than the Jin people.
Fujita Mitsukawa did not want to believe that his soldiers were inferior to Yan Yun's army, and asked the scout: "Did the Han people use some conspiracy, such as setting up an ambush to ambush our army, which led to our army's defeat?" Fujita Hiromichi and Nishino Oki
I couldn't help but feel something in my heart, thinking it was very possible, and quickly looked at the scout.
The scout shook his head, with a look of horror on his face, swallowed his saliva, and said: "They, they are so scary! They are really like the legendary monsters! They fight our army head-on, and they rely on their powerful
The power defeated our army!" Fujita Hiromichi and the other three were in heavy hearts. Although they still did not want to believe that their opponents were so powerful, they also knew that it was impossible for the scouts to lie. The scout suddenly remembered something and said: "Before the two armies start fighting,
, Lord Honda once faced off against King Yan, but Lord Honda was still defeated by King Yan with the help of three senior samurai!"
Fujita Hiromichi and the others showed shock, and Nishino said in panic: "How is this possible? How can there be anyone in the world who can be Lord Honda's opponent!? No matter how powerful the enemy is, they can at most be tied with Lord Honda.
Well, how is it possible, how is it possible..." The scout said: "I saw it with my own eyes. Lord Honda and three senior warriors besieged King Yan, but one of the warriors was killed by King Yan's formation, and the other three were killed.
They all fled!" Fujita Hiromichi and the other three were overwhelmed with emotion. They really couldn't believe that Yamato's number one swordsman could be defeated, and they were defeated in such an embarrassing manner!
Fujita Hiromichi came to his senses and asked the scout: "Is Lord Musashi still alive? How many people are left in our army and where are they now?"
The scout reported back: "Lord Musashi and Lord Honda are still alive. The army has suffered heavy losses and is probably only half of its size. My subordinates came back on horseback, much faster than the army. They are probably still far away from the capital at this moment."
It’s more than a hundred miles away.”
Fujita Hiromichi calmed himself down, thought carefully, turned around and asked Nishino Chong: "I remember there is a Mao'er Mountain thirty miles to the west?" Nishino Chong only remembered this mountain after hearing this, and nodded quickly:
"There is such a mountain, thirty-five miles west of Kaijing. It is the only way to enter Kaijing from the west."
Fujita Hiromichi said: "At this moment, the Yanyun Army is chasing Musashi's defeated army and will never be prepared for anything else. Nishino-kun, you immediately lead three thousand soldiers and horses to Mao'er Mountain to ambush the Yanyun Army." Nishino glanced at the Yanyun Army.
Liang, cheered and ran down quickly. Fujita Mitsuaki said dissatisfiedly: "Why don't you let me lead the army to ambush Mao'er Mountain?" Fujita Hiromichi said angrily: "You have a bad character. If you lead the army alone, you may make mistakes.
! Besides, this battle is very important and there is no room for failure. It is better for Nishino-kun to go and be on the safe side!" Mitsuhako Fujita felt that his uncle looked down on him and was very angry. He snorted and turned around. Hiromichi Fujita shook his head and sighed, feeling that this nephew was really
He was ignorant. He glanced at the scout and ordered: "Continue the investigation and report at any time." The scout responded and ran down the city wall. Fujita Hiromichi thought about it and felt that Musashio's defeat was very serious and must be reported to the General, so
A messenger was summoned and asked to report to the General as soon as possible the news that Musashio failed to attack Kaishu and was instead defeated by Yanyun's army.
Xiye Chong led three thousand soldiers and horses to leave Kaijing in a hurry and headed for Mao'er Mountain in the west.
Along the way, the Yanyun War Cavalry continued to chase and kill the fleeing Japanese troops. The Japanese troops had not suffered too much losses in the previous battles. However, in the subsequent desperate escape, they suffered heavy casualties. The Yanyun War Cavalry refused to give up.
The Japanese soldiers had long lost their fighting spirit and were like frightened birds or sheep being chased by wolves. They only knew how to run for their lives. They were constantly being overtaken by Yanyun's warriors and being killed. The screams of their companions kept coming one after another.
The sound echoed around my ears, and I was extremely frightened. I felt as if I was having a terrible nightmare that I couldn't wake up from. On the more than a hundred miles of escape, there were corpses of Japanese soldiers everywhere, and there were dying people everywhere.
The struggling wounded, wolves and mourners were everywhere, and the scene was extremely miserable. In the hearts of the Japanese at this moment, Yan Yunjun was simply a group of cruel and bloodthirsty demons.
A group of Yanyun warriors chased the Japanese defeated troops and came to the canyon in Mao'er Mountain. They saw the Japanese defeated soldiers escaping hastily out of the valley and immediately pursued them.
Suddenly, thousands of Japanese people stood up in the bushes on the hillsides on both sides and raised countless flags. Yanyun's war horse did not expect this move and was startled. He subconsciously reined in his horse and looked around.
At this time, arrows were raining down from the hillsides on both sides, and rolling rocks and trees were pouring down with a rumble. The Yanyun warriors were caught off guard and were immediately beaten to their knees! A moment later, this team of nearly a thousand Yanyun warriors suffered heavy casualties.
The commander had been killed, and the deputy commander hurriedly led the remaining cavalry out of the valley.
At this moment, the main cavalry of Yanyun led by Yang Peng came up. At this time, the Yanyun infantry brigade was still behind, led by Yeqi Guanyin, and had not yet caught up.
Yang Peng and others were surprised when they saw their cavalry escaping from the valley in panic. Then the deputy commander rode up to Chen Xiao, clasped his fists and said: "King Yan, we pursued the enemy into the valley, but we didn't expect that the enemy was actually in the valley.
An ambush was laid in the middle, and nearly half of our army was caught off guard and wounded, and the commander was also killed!"
Yang Peng frowned, rode his horse to the entrance of the valley, and looked into the valley. Sure enough, he saw thousands of Japanese troops on the slopes on both sides of the valley. And on the only passage in the middle of the valley, hundreds of Japanese soldiers were lying in random directions.
The body of one's own cavalry. Next to the Zhanjin National Road: "The terrain is unfavorable and difficult to pass. We must wait for the infantry behind to come up before attacking!"
Yang Peng took a closer look at the situation in the valley and saw that although there were no tall trees in the valley, there were thick bushes and grass. It must be because of this that the thousand cavalry did not enter the valley in time.
Found the Japanese ambushing on both sides.
A gust of wind blew from the valley, and the dry breath was mixed with the strong smell of blood. Then the wind changed direction, from blowing out of the valley to blowing into the valley. Yang Peng's heart moved and he said: "You don't have to wait for the next step."
Army!" Zhan Jinguo thought that Yang Peng was going to use his cavalry to forcefully attack the Japanese army ambushing in the valley, so he couldn't help but feel heroic and said with cupped fists: "Brother, let me lead the army to attack!"
Yang Peng smiled and gave some instructions to Zhan Jinguo. After hearing Yang Peng's words, Zhan Jinguo showed a surprised look, because Yang Peng's instructions were completely different from what he expected. Yang Peng asked: "What's the matter?
Is there something you don’t understand?” Zhan Jinguo clasped his fists and said, “If there’s nothing I don’t understand, I’ll do it immediately!” He immediately turned his horse and ran down, shouting at the Xuanjia Army under his command.
The Japanese in the valley were standing ready, their eyes widened, their arrows already on their bows, waiting for Yanyun's army to attack. These Japanese had just successfully ambushed Yanyun's cavalry and killed hundreds of them effortlessly. They were confident.
I couldn't help but burst out. Although there were a lot of people shouting and screaming outside the valley at the moment, the Japanese soldiers in the valley were not afraid at all. They were still looking forward to the Yanyun Army's attack so that they could kill more Yanyun Army soldiers to increase the number of soldiers.
own merit.
Suddenly, Yanyun cavalry entered the valley, and the Japanese couldn't help but get excited. However, to their surprise, the Yanyun cavalry stopped immediately after entering the valley and did not go deeper. Seeing this, the Japanese soldiers couldn't help but
They became anxious. Then they saw the Yanyun warriors bending their bows and aiming arrows at the hillside where they were. The Japanese soldiers couldn't help but feel strange: This place was hundreds of steps away from the entrance of the valley, and it was condescending.
Although the strong bow and crossbow are powerful, they are far out of reach. What on earth do they want to do?
Just when the Japanese officers were confused, two Yanyun officers holding torches ignited the arrows in the hands of the Yanyun cavalry. Seeing this scene, the Japanese were subconsciously frightened. At this moment, they saw only a fire
The rain flew up the hillside in the direction of the wind and fell into the dry thorn bushes. In the blink of an eye, countless fire heads sprang up, then burned fiercely, and spread quickly with the help of the mountain wind. The Japanese soldiers saw it
The fire raged, and they screamed and ran down the hillside in an attempt to escape from the valley. However, the wind helped the fire and the fire took advantage of the wind. In a blink of an eye, the fire spread across the sky. Many Japanese people had no time to escape down the hillside.
Some were swallowed up by the flames, and some were forced by the flames. They panicked and jumped off the cliff. Their bodies were bruised and bloody. For a while, the screams echoed in the valley.
In just a moment, the entire valley turned into a huge furnace. Yan Yun's soldiers could no longer stay at the entrance of the valley, so they had to stay away from it until they were several hundred meters away from the entrance of the valley. They could still feel the scorching heat.
The breath rushed to my face, and I could only hear the roaring flames in the valley, as if the devil was roaring. Looking up, I saw the flames burning in the sky above the entire valley, as if a huge volcano was erupting. Fortunately, there was a huge volcano erupting around the valley.
It is a jagged place with strange rocks and not much vegetation, so the flames in the valley basically only burn in the valley and are difficult to spread.
Nishino led the remaining defeated soldiers and fled back to Kaijing City. Fujita Hiromichi saw the fiery red sky in the west and was wondering. When he saw Nishino waiting for him to escape back in embarrassment, all of them looking distressed, he couldn't help but be shocked and asked urgently.
"What's going on? How did you end up like this? Could it be that Mao'er Mountain was occupied by the Yanyun Army?" Nishino Chong said with lingering fear: "They, they set fire to the mountain, and we almost couldn't get out!" Fujita
Only then did Hongdao understand why the sky in the west was burning like a fire. It turned out to be Yan Yunjun's fire attack!
Fujita Mitsukawa mocked: "We originally thought Nishino-sama could hold Mao'er Mountain, even if he couldn't hold it forever, it would be good for a few days, but we didn't expect that Mao'er Mountain was lost in less than a day!" Fujita
Hongdao frowned, obviously very unhappy.
Xiye Chong said quickly: "Our army ambushed in Mao'er Mountain and originally won a great victory, annihilating countless Yanyun war cavalry! But later, the Yanyun army took advantage of the wind direction and the bushes and grass all over the valley to use fire attacks.
Ce! The raging flames are sweeping in like an overwhelming force, and it is simply not something that humans can resist!"
Fujita Hiromichi's face looked better and he said: "The flood of flames cannot be resisted by human beings. It is not a sin for you to lose to the fire." Nishino couldn't help but feel relieved when he heard that Fujita Hiromichi had forgiven him.
, thanked him quickly and said: "Thank you for your understanding!" Fujita Mitsuaki was very unhappy, but he couldn't say anything else.
Fujita Hiromichi looked to the west, looking at the burning sky, and suddenly turned around and asked Nishino Chong: "Based on Nishino-kun's estimation, how long will the fire last?" Nishino Chong thought for a while and said: "At least it must burn.
One day and one night." Fujita Hiromichi murmured: "One day and one night, then we also have one day and one night." He raised his head, looked at Nishino Oki and Fujita Mitsukazu, and said: "Before Nishino-kun comes back, there is a close
Ten thousand soldiers of our army have returned to Kaijing. I estimate that there are more soldiers of our army scattered outside. You two should go out of the city immediately to meet our army and guide them back to Kaijing. After the flames in the valley are extinguished, Yan Yun's army
We must cross the valley to attack the capital city, and we must concentrate all possible forces to fight the Yanyun Army at the foot of the capital city!" Nishino Chong and Fujita Mitsuo let out a cheer and ran down.
The sun has set, the moon has climbed up the treetops, and the sky in the distance is still a scene of blazing fire, which is more eye-catching than during the day, as if the earth in the distance has opened a gap leading to hell. There is a commotion inside and outside the capital city.
From time to time, defeated Japanese soldiers fled back to Kaijing.
By the next morning, more than 30,000 defeated soldiers had returned to Kaijing City. While Fujita Hiromichi was inspecting the city wall, Nishino rushed up and reported: "Sir, His Excellency Musashio is back."
Fujita Hiromichi was not too happy to hear the news and asked: "Where are they now?" Nishino said: "They have gone to the camp. I found them in the north. There are more than 10,000 people in total." Fujita Hiromichi hurriedly said
Asked: "Have you found Yanyun's pursuers?" Nishino Chong shook his head and said: "I heard from the samurai under Lord Musashi that there were pursuers chasing them, but they crossed the river after crossing a small river.
The only wooden bridge across the river was burned down, so Yan Yun’s pursuers were blocked on the other side.”
Fujita Hiromichi breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and murmured: "After all, Lord Musashi is a famous general of our Yamato nation. Although he was defeated, he was able to handle emergencies correctly."
Nishino Chong said: "Sir, Lord Musashi, please come over and discuss the matter." Fujita Hiromichi frowned and walked towards the city wall, Nishino Chong and others followed behind. On the way, they met Fujita Mitsuha, and they went to camp together.
The group came to the lobby of the camp and saw Musashio and Honda Tadakatsu, who had just recovered from the shock and were sitting on the chairs in the left row with a miserable expression. Fujita Hiromichi and Musashio had the same position, so Fujita Hiromichi just nodded slightly towards Musashio as a courtesy.
, Musashio also nodded in response. Fujita Mitsukata and Nishino Oki bowed to Musashio, Honda Tadakatsu stood up and bowed to Fujita Hiromichi. Then Honda Tadakatsu sat back in his seat, and Fujita Hiromichi and the other three were on the right.
He sat down on the row of chairs.
Fujita Hiromichi glanced at Musashio and said: "I already know the situation of Kaishu." Musashio and Honda Tadakatsu were ashamed. Musashio said fiercely: "I will take the shame of this defeat ten times and a hundred times one day.
Give it back to that King Yan!"
Fujita Mitsukazu sneered. Musashio happened to see Fujita Mitsukazu's expression, and immediately became angry and asked loudly: "Fujita-kun, what do you mean by sneering?" Fujita Mitsukazu did not expect that the other party actually saw his expression, and even
Come to question yourself, overwhelmed by the opponent's power, you don't know how to respond for a moment. Fujita Hiromichi hurriedly said: "Musashi-kun, what we should consider now is how to defend Kaijing!"
After hearing this, Musashi had no choice but to suppress his anger, turned to look at Fujita Hiromichi, and said: "My more than 40,000 soldiers and horses plus your Excellency's more than 10,000 sergeants, there are a total of nearly 60,000 troops. It is absolutely impossible for the Yanyun Army to break through.
Open Beijing!"
Fujita Hiromichi said: "What Mr. Musashi said is very true, but there is a saying among the Han people, 'A snake cannot survive without a head.' In this battle to defend the capital, one person must be elected as the commander-in-chief to lead the overall situation!" Musashi was proud of his heroism.
Raising his eyebrows, "What's there to discuss? Of course I will be the commander-in-chief!"
Fujita Mitsukawa said: "Fujita Hiromichi-sama was appointed by the general to defend Kaijing. Naturally, Fujita Hiromichi-sama should be responsible for the defense of Kaijing!"
Musashio was furious, glared at Fujita Mitsukata, and shouted: "Baga!" Fujita Mitsukazu saw Musashio's fierce expression, and his heart shuddered, and then a surge of arrogance came up, and he stared at Musashio without showing any weakness,
He said sarcastically: "If Lord Musashi is allowed to serve as the commander-in-chief again, I am afraid that our Yamato nation will suffer another disastrous defeat, and I am afraid that the opening of the capital will also be lost!"
Fujita Mitsukazu's words suddenly touched Musashio's sore spot. Musashio was so angry that he grabbed the Japanese sword placed on the coffee table next to him and shouted, "Baga!" He suddenly stood up. Fujita Mitsukazu also grabbed his own.
Japanese swordsman stood up and stared at Musashio opposite him.
Seeing that the situation was about to get out of hand, Fujita Hiromichi quickly stood up, stood between the two of them, and shouted at Fujita Mitsukazu: "How could you be so rude to Musashi-sama? Apologize!" Fujita Mitsukazu looked very reluctant.
He was extremely depressed. When Fujita Mitsuo didn't do what he said, he couldn't help but became angry and shouted: "Didn't you hear what I said?" His tone and expression were already very angry. Fujita Mitsuo did not dare to disobey his uncle's order and looked at Musashi Ou.
Bowed and said: "Your Excellency, I'm rude, please forgive me!" Musashio snorted, but most of his anger had subsided, and he said angrily: "Young man, you have to abide by the rules!" Mitsuhako Fujita couldn't help but said
He wanted to retort, but thinking that his uncle was right in front of him, he forcefully swallowed back the sarcastic words that came to his lips.
Fujita Hiromichi said to Musashi Yu: "Your Excellency Musashi is the commander-in-chief appointed by His Excellency the General to annihilate the Han people. The heavy responsibility of guarding the opening of the capital naturally has to be shouldered by Your Excellency!" After hearing this, Fujita Mitsuha was shocked and wanted to say something.
, but was stopped by Nishino Oki next to him; Musashi was very happy to see Fujita Hiromichi willing to obey his authority, with a smile on his face and said: "Your Excellency Fujita puts the overall situation first, which is very good!" Fujita Hiromichi nodded and said:
"Your Excellency and I will work together to defend Kaijing. If you have any orders, I will definitely obey them!"
Musashio nodded appreciatively and said: "Very good! Your Excellency Fujita will be my deputy and help me guard Kaijing!" The implication is that Kaijing is his territory, and Fujita Hikaru would be furious. If it weren't for
If you are worried about your uncle, you will definitely explode immediately.
Fujita Hiromichi and others left the camp. Fujita Mitsuo couldn't help but said: "Uncle, why do you want to give in to him? That Musashio was defeated in Kaizhou and lost his army, but he actually had the nerve to seize our territory. Uncle, don't you?"
You should give in! Uncle, you are the garrison of Kaijing appointed by His Majesty the General. It is my uncle’s responsibility to guard Kaijing. How can you, uncle, give up this responsibility to others?"
Fujita Hiromichi glanced at Mitsukata Fujita and said angrily: "You have such an impulsive and irritable personality, how can you take on big things in the future!" Mitsuchi Fujita snorted, looking unconvinced. Hiromichi Fujita sighed and said, "You
Look at Musashi's posture, if he doesn't get this defensive position, he won't give up!..." Fujita Hikaru raised his eyebrows and said proudly: "I'm not afraid of him!"
What happened after all? Let’s look at the breakdown next time.
