At the Japanese slave naval camp on the coast, Sowa was awakened by his panicked men.
He had a bad temper and was very angry at first, but when he heard that there was an enemy attack, he sobered up instantly.
He didn't even wear any armor, so he put on his shoes and ran outside. Then he saw a scene that made his eyes split with rage.
Half of the harbor was in flames, and the fire was spreading to the shore.
But after all, he is the most powerful person in the Wonu Kingdom besides Soga Ezo, and his psychological quality is very strong.
He soon woke up and said: "Gather everyone immediately, don't let them run around."
"Take people to get information, see where the enemies come from and how many there are."
"You, you, you, you, you, you, take people to rescue the boats... We don't want those burning boats. Clear an isolation zone to block the sea of fire, and save as many as you can."
As he, the commander-in-chief, issued order after order in an orderly manner, order was gradually restored to the panic-stricken Japanese navy.
Some people began to spy on the military situation, some rescued the ship, and some were on guard...
Seeing this, Suga Rulu's face finally looked better and he began to put on the armor with the help of his men.
But at this moment...
"Whoosh!" An arrow came from the darkness and hit him in the back.
"Ah." Suwa Rulu screamed and fell to the ground.
He was standing in the light of the fire. He had just summoned the soldiers. This scene was seen by many people, and everyone panicked immediately.
"Protect the general, protect the general..."
"Enemy attacking, enemy attacking...there are enemies on land..."
"The general is injured, the general is injured..."
Everyone started shouting and shouting, and the panic quickly spread throughout the army.
In their initial state of shock, they suddenly heard that their commander-in-chief had been attacked and injured. They became completely panicked and didn't know what to do for a while.
Suga Rulu was not hit critically, but his injuries were not serious. It took him a while to catch his breath.
Seeing that the camp was once again in chaos, he forcibly stood up and prepared to stabilize the morale of the troops.
However, before he could speak, he heard shouts of killing, and then someone yelled in half-baked Japanese slave language:
"The Heavenly Army of the Tang Dynasty is coming, run away."
"Su Worulu is dead, run away."
"Everyone, run away quickly, Su Wolu is dead."
The morale of the Japanese slave navy, which had long been in panic, completely collapsed. Those who were still thinking of ways to put out the fire dropped their tools and ran away.
If one person runs away, a large group will form, and then spread to the entire army.
At the same time, fires broke out in the camp, and the wooden barracks were the best fuel. The fire spread quickly with the wind, and the camp quickly turned into a sea of fire.
Seeing this, Su Wo entered the deer and became furious. He spat out a mouthful of blood and passed out.
Seeing that there was nothing he could do, his personal guards immediately abandoned the army to protect him and fled.
Seeing that the commander-in-chief had escaped, the remaining Japanese slave navy that was still holding on collapsed completely.
It was Wang Hu who attacked Su Wolu and set fire to him.
He and his men successfully reached the land camp of Su Wo Rulu, attacked the patrolmen, snatched several Japanese slave uniforms, put them on and walked into the camp openly.
He stayed in the Chikushi Kingdom for a long time, specializing in spying on intelligence, and learned the Japanese slave language.
Although what he said was unreasonable, he still sneaked into the camp.
Without him, dialect.
The 50,000-strong army of Su Wo Ru Lu was recruited from all over the country. There were people from all over the country, and their accents were also all kinds of strange.
The other party heard that he had a weird accent, so he thought he was from a small place and would not doubt Tang Jun.
So he wore a Japanese slave uniform and successfully sneaked into the camp with a few of his men, working together inside and outside to capture a corner of it.
When a fire broke out at sea, he led his men to set fires everywhere to create chaos. Suddenly he heard someone shouting to the general to order the troops to assemble.
At that moment, he had a bold idea in his mind, and asked the deputy general to lead everyone to continue setting fires to create momentum, while he himself led a few of his men and followed the rebels and ran into the camp.
At this time, the minds of the Japanese navy troops were in complete confusion. No one noticed anything unusual about their group, and they just thought they were following orders to assemble.
In this way, he successfully approached Soga Rika.
When everyone else obeyed the order and left, Wang Hu took advantage of the chaos and hid in a dark corner, and fired a cold arrow from behind to hit Su Wo for a moment.
After releasing the arrow, he did not dare to stay where he was, and quickly fled back. He did not know whether Suga Rulu was dead, but he was sure that he had shot the enemy general.
After reuniting with his men, Wang Hu saw that the fire was starting and led everyone to quickly evacuate to a safe area.
The camp that stretched for several miles quickly turned into a sea of flames, and you could feel your face burning from a few feet away.
He couldn't help but feel glad that he didn't take advantage of the military merit and withdrew in time, otherwise he would have been buried in the flames by now.
But then he was not idle either. He led a group of men to guard one direction. If any Japanese slaves escaped from this direction, they would go up and hack them to death.
Just waiting around like this actually killed a lot of people for him.
A calculated and unintentional battle suddenly started and ended abruptly.
The East China Sea Fleet of the Tang Dynasty effortlessly destroyed the navy that the Japanese slaves had built with half the country's effort.
A touch of orange appeared in the eastern sky, and soon a round sun jumped out of the water, and it finally dawned.
Looking at the burning enemy ships on the sea, Liu Rengui tried to save them.
But the fires at sea and on land were connected together, and the water in the bay was about to boil, so we had to give up this idea.
"Haha..." Gao Biaoren laughed and walked to him and said: "Congratulations to Governor Liu, for destroying the 50,000 Japanese army in one battle, he will surely become famous all over the world."
Liu Rengui could not hide the joy on his face, but he did not get carried away, but said: "Thanks to Gao Duhu's intelligence, otherwise it would never have been so smooth."
This was absolutely true. He had just received news that a dozen ships, seeking military glory, rashly pursued enemy ships, entered the dangerous area marked on the chart, ran aground on the rocks, and sank.
Despite timely rescue efforts, hundreds of people drowned and dozens were missing.
If the army directly breaks into the dangerous area without knowing the information, the consequences can be imagined.
It can be said that Gao Biaoren's intelligence took greater credit for the battle to be fought like this.
But no matter what, this battle was won by the East China Sea Fleet, so their contribution should be greater.
After that, when the two of them work together, don't worry about setting fire to the enemy. Let's send people to capture the Japanese slaves and defeat them.
Gao Biaoren said: "The Japanese slaves have strict laws. If you desert the army, your whole family will be demoted as a slave."
"These defeated soldiers either fled into the mountains and forests and never came out to save their families. Or they gathered together somewhere around and then returned to the country together."
"We just need to send people to search around, and we should be able to catch a lot of them... These will be the vanguard of our future attack on the Wonu Kingdom."
Liu Rengui nodded and said, "Okay, I'll send someone to arrest the defeated soldiers."
In order to return home, these captives will inevitably launch a desperate attack on their homeland. With a little training, they can become sharp weapons in the hands of the Tang Dynasty.
In fact, given the composition of the Japanese slave country, many people do not consider themselves Japanese slaves.
Not long ago, Wonu Island was divided into hundreds of countries. Even now, it is divided into different forces. In private, everyone still calls their ethnic group by their original name.
They didn't have much recognition for the name of the Japanese Nu Kingdom, but because the Japanese Nu Kingdom was too powerful, they had to surrender.
In this case, they can naturally surrender to the more powerful Tang Dynasty.
With a little brainwashing, he can launch an attack on the 'oppressor' Japanese slave country in order to return home and reunite.
The fire burned for three days and three nights before it gradually extinguished. The entire harbor and several miles around it were reduced to ashes.
More than 3,000 Japanese warships were burned, and 50,000 naval officers and soldiers suffered heavy casualties. Less than 10,000 people returned after the war, and the rest either perished in the sea of fire or fled into the mountains and forests.
Of course, more of them became prisoners of the Tang Dynasty.
At this time, the top leaders of the Japanese slaves were still immersed in the dream of training the navy to defeat the Tang army and recapture Zhuzi Island, giving the Tang Dynasty a slap in the face.
When he heard the news that the training navy had been wiped out, he thought someone was joking with them, so Soga Ezo even chopped down two messengers.
It wasn't until they saw the dying Suga Rulu with their own eyes that they had no choice but to believe the news, and then the whole country was shocked.
Soga Ezo, the most powerful official, and Soga Irika, the naval commander, naturally became the culprits and were denounced by both the government and the opposition.
Even though Soga Ezo was extremely powerful, he was almost helpless in the face of this situation.
Why use almost? Because in the end he thought of a solution.
A few days later, news came out that Soga Irika, who had fled back to Asuka Okamoto Palace, died of shame and death by caesarean section.
How do you say that, 'He is still young', 'He is old enough to celebrate the New Year', 'He is here even if he comes', and another sentence is 'He is dead even if he dies'.
Su Wo is dead even if he is dead, but it seems stingy to hold on to a dead person.
What's more, he still had a caesarean section to atone for his sins. According to the rules, you should leave him the last bit of dignity.
Soga Ezo regained the moral high ground and successfully transformed from a defeated man into an old man suffering the pain of losing his son.
Those who opposed him were naturally unwilling to give up, but the power of the Suga family was too huge, and there was nothing they could do.
So, everyone began to discuss how to face the next problem.
The first step is to determine who the enemy is and how many there are.
However, the Tang Dynasty quickly answered this question for them. Liu Rengui led the fleet and circled several times around the largest ports and coastal cities in the Wonu Kingdom.
The huge fleet immediately frightened everyone, especially the 90-meter and 60-meter-long giant ships. They were behemoths, and their visual impact was even stronger than their actual combat power.
Emperor Shuming, who was already weak and sick, was shocked and frightened that he fell ill.
Soga Ezo quickly took control of Kyoto and found the best doctors to treat Emperor Shumei, while also dealing with the immediate crisis.
Facing the threat of Datang, he felt that he could not be scared like this.
So he sent envoys on board the ship to condemn the Tang Dynasty for attacking the vassal country for no reason. It was unkind and unjust and he wanted to be reviled by the world.
Liu Rengui's answer was simple. He divided the fleet into several groups to clean up the entire Japanese slave waters. All ships going out to sea, whether warships, merchant ships or fishing boats, were sunk.
Wonu is an island country that relies heavily on fishery resources. A large number of people will go hungry if they can't go to the sea for one day, and countless families will go bankrupt if they don't go to the sea for three days. The people will soon be unable to support it.
The helpless local lords could only ask for help from above, hoping to resolve the crisis as soon as possible.
At this moment, a piece of news came out from nowhere and spread quickly throughout the entire Japanese slave country...
The reason why the Tang Dynasty sent troops to the Japanese slaves was because the emperor did not respect the saints of the Tang Dynasty and refused to kneel down to meet the wishes of the saints of the Tang Dynasty.
This is good. Originally, everyone was still resenting the Tang Dynasty for invading them, but now they all turned their guns and pointed their guns at the Emperor...
As mentioned before, the Wonu Kingdom was divided into hundreds of countries, and they all fought against each other.
Because the Wonu Kingdom was stronger, it gradually overpowered other countries and became the monarch of the island.
But the reason why the Wonu Kingdom was able to unify the island country was directly related to the canonization of the Han Dynasty.
Many countries on the island of Japan admired the powerful Central Plains dynasty and regarded themselves as vassals.
The leader of the Japanese slave kingdom saw this, arrived at the Han Dynasty one step ahead of time, was canonized, and received the gold seal given by the Han Dynasty.
Relying on the canonization and gold seal of the Han Dynasty, the Wonu Kingdom persuaded many small countries to join it, and its strength came to the fore.
In the name of the Han Dynasty, they also carried out conquests against the remaining countries that refused to surrender. After hundreds of years of management, the current Japanese slave country was established.
Therefore, the Japanese slaves have been vassals of the Central Plains Celestial Dynasty since ancient times, and they are even proud of it. It is normal for a vassal state to kneel down and worship the suzerain state.
Your Emperor actually refuses to kneel down and worship the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. This is a perfect act of forgetting one’s ancestors.
Now that it's fine, it has provoked the overlord country to send troops to attack.
Emperor, please come out and admit your mistake quickly and calm down the anger of the heavenly kingdom, otherwise we will rise up in rebellion.
For a time Emperor Shuming became the biggest culprit.
When he heard the news, Emperor Shuming, who was already bedridden, was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood and passed out.
After receiving the news, Soga Ezo hurriedly entered the palace, and when he saw the dying Emperor Shumei, he screamed that something was wrong.
We know that there will really be a new emperor this time, but the question is who will be chosen to be the emperor at this time?
However, the news must be sealed at the moment so that outsiders cannot know about the Emperor's death.
Then he quickly resolved the dispute with Datang and sent the Tang army away.
Otherwise, once domestic forces collude with Datang, he will no longer be able to control the situation.
So he quickly sent a new envoy in the name of the emperor to see the commander-in-chief of the Tang army and brought a form of apology.
However, Liu Rengui became furious after just reading the beginning. He apologized to the envoy and drove everyone out.
Now the messenger of the Japanese slaves was confused. What do you mean?
If there's anything wrong, let's discuss it. You kicked us off without even saying a word. I don't even know what's wrong and how to correct it.
Kuromaro, the Japanese slave deputy envoy, was very polite to Gao Biaoren and paid him a private visit as an old friend. Then he realized what the problem was.
"You, the monarch of the Wonu Kingdom, dare to call yourself the Emperor of the Land of the Rising Sun. Isn't this treason? There is only one emperor in the world, and that is the saint of the Tang Dynasty."
The envoy from the Wonu Kingdom finally understood what the problem was and quickly went back to discuss what to do.
Soga Ezo couldn't care less about this at this time, so he quickly wrote a new apology form and called himself the Wonu King.
This time Liu Rengui reluctantly agreed to the apology form and then entered into formal negotiations.
