Chapter 277 Aiding Korea and Fighting the Japanese (12) Princess Kafei
After a long time, Gao Jingshi appeared again in the small restaurant on the first floor of Rixin Building. Liu Xin was originally in a low mood and had been thinking about her own thoughts. When she saw Gao Jingshi changed his clothes and appeared in high spirits with a red face, she didn't know why.
A trace of resentment arose and he muttered: "It's said that the journey of thousands of miles is tiring, but the bathing took more than half an hour, and the dishes were almost cold."
Gao Pragmatic was thick-skinned enough, so he turned a deaf ear to what he heard and sat down in his seat without changing his expression. Behind him, Meng Guzhe and Narita Kai were not as capable as him. After listening to Liu Xin's words, they both turned around.
Brushing Xiafei's cheeks, even the base of his ears turned red.
The two of them did not dare to say anything, but stood cautiously behind Gao Pragmatic, like two little maids who had done something wrong. This made Liu Xin, who had already been seated, look like a mistress.
Fortunately, Gao Pingshi felt happy and turned around to look at the two of them in surprise, saying, "Why are you standing here? Sit down to eat. I told you a long time ago that there are no such rules in the house." After speaking, he pointed.
To the left and right of oneself: "Sit."
It can be said that Liu Xin herself has always maintained the independent personality of many later women, but her teaching "students" is obviously still the same as the Ming Dynasty. The rules are very clear. As soon as the two girls heard Gao Pragmatic's words, they sat down obediently.
On both sides of him.
Liu Xin curled her lips and said sourly: "It's better to be a man."
Gao pragmatic shook his head and said: "No matter what era you are in, whether you are a man or a woman, you must succeed if you succeed. If you fail, you will not get better - especially men."
"You want to peddle your 'responsibility theory' again, but I am not Huang Zhiting..." Liu Xin changed the topic and suddenly said: "My brother is fighting in Bozhou, and you are not in the house. I don't know the news about him.
I missed a lot, do you have any analysis you can give me now?"
Gao Pingshi asked slightly unexpectedly: "Are you worried about him?"
Liu Xin said angrily: "He is my brother, why should I be worried about him?"
"It's not that it's strange." Gao Pingshi touched his chin and said, "I think you should have enough confidence in him. Can a visit to Banzhou make you worry about him?"
Liu Xin rolled her eyes at him and hummed: "Hey, you are talking as if Yang Yinglong is just like a withered bone in a grave. As long as my brother passes by, he will be captured sooner or later? How come I don't know that Liu Jiajun is so powerful?"
"
She clapped her fingers and said: "Yang Yinglong has 60,000 veterans under his command. Plus the newly recruited soldiers, it's more than 100,000. And the Liu family's direct descendants only have less than 30,000! Tell me why I'm not worried.
?”
"The direct lineage belongs to the direct lineage. He is not just bringing the direct lineage with him this time." Gao pragmatically smiled and said, "There are several armies totaling 240,000, and nearly half of them are under his direct command."
"If I didn't know that you know enough about the situation of the provincial health offices in the south, just listening to your words, I would have thought that you were the kind of nerd who worked directly from the Hanlin Academy to the cabinet." Liu Xin curled her lips and said: "
No matter how many troops my brother leads, if it comes to a critical battle, he will still have to rely on the Liu family's direct lineage."
"That's true, but this time as long as he can keep his composure and don't fight recklessly, then the victory of this battle is really only a matter of time." Gao Pragmatic put on his look again.
He answered with a standard gentleness and a smile.
"Although you said it very easily, you added a precondition. Can I understand it in the opposite direction: Do you think my brother might lose the battle because he couldn't calm down and attack rashly?"
Gao Pragmatic's smile was a bit unbearable, and he smiled bitterly: "If you insist on understanding it this way, then no matter who is commanding any war, it is possible that he will lose the war because of this - your brother may, I may, and even I
This time the troops were dispatched because the initial plan was too ambitious and there was almost an accident halfway through."
When he said this, Liu Xin also felt that her question was a bit intentional. She thought about it and said: "That's right, but I don't think your comparison is appropriate. The battle of the Northern Expedition Can Yuan is the final result and the battle
The expectations are different from before, but essentially there is no possibility of you losing, it is just a matter of how much you win - for example, if you wanted 100% at the beginning, you may only get 70% or 80% in the end.
My brother's battle is incomparable to that of your Fa Yuan. His previous two campaigns were resounding defeats. Although the main reason for the defeat was that he underestimated Yang Yinglong's strength and sent too few troops, it was also true.
It shows that the first thing to consider in the Battle of Bozhou is the outcome, not the percentage of victory - the government army can only win 100% in this battle, because the government army is facing the domestic chieftains, and if they want to win, they must win them all.
Next, if the opponent runs away, no matter where he goes, he is still in the country, it means that the battle is not over, and it is impossible to return home in triumph."
Gao Jingshi was too lazy to argue with her about this, and said helplessly: "In short, you don't have to worry too much about his defeat. I discussed the battle between him and Yang Yinglong this afternoon with the emperor. The advantages of the government and the army are great. In addition to the strength of the troops,
, equipment, materials and other advantages, I also proposed some political measures to coordinate with military operations, striving to attack in an all-round way and fight a war that can be called an all-round war in this era."
With that said, Gao Pragmatic introduced some things about Bozhou that he had discussed with the emperor in the afternoon. After hearing this, Liu Xin felt relieved and clapped her hands: "Okay, seeing that you are so confident, I will believe you."
." Then she turned her beautiful eyes, looked at Narita Kai next to Gao Pingshi, and said with a smile: "Ah, the third lady must be waiting impatiently. I was rude. What do the third lady want to say to the Marquis?"
In fact, it was very strange when she said these words. There was always a feeling of identity reversal, but in the Gao Pragmatic Mansion, everyone was used to this situation - although Secretary-General Liu was theoretically only the master's chief of staff,
But the close relationship between her and the master made both ladies feel ashamed.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! You see, Mrs. Ru also acquiesced in this situation, so when Liu Xin said this, Narita Kai even took the initiative to express his thanks, and then timidly said:
"Master, may I ask?"
Gao Jingshi felt that Narita Kai's attitude may not be entirely from her heart. Although Japan's "the most beautiful woman in the East" is pretty and lovely, she looks completely delicate and delicate on the surface.
Looks like that. However, you must know that he has a record of leading hundreds of warriors to defend the city of Ninja. He is a warrior Ji who has truly entered the history books.
At this time, she looked as weak as a delicate flower. In addition to being influenced by the Chinese and Japanese culture that the husband is the wife, it was probably also a tactic, a tactic to arouse men's protective desire.
Well, but... the tactics were successful.
Although Gao Pingshi could see through it, he still laughed and said, "Just ask whatever you want."
"Thank you, sir." Although he has been in the Ming Dynasty for some time, Narita Kai will still bow respectfully as a habit, and then ask with his head bowed: "The Toyotomi clan went to war with the Ming Dynasty, and it is said that the Tokugawa clan was also ordered to participate in the war.
, I am worried that they will take action against the Kanto Fleet.
And this move may not only be aimed at the Kanto fleet, the Narita clan's Tamana Castle, as the northern outpost of Misaki Castle, will inevitably be in danger. As you know, sir, the Narita clan's power has always been very weak. Even after the Battle of Ninja Castle
, moved the jade rope and received assistance from the Sea Trade Alliance to expand the size of the samurai. However, as far as I know, the Narita clan currently only has about three thousand warriors. It may be difficult to hold on to the vital jade rope with this strength.
city……"
The importance of Tamawa Castle has been mentioned before. To put it simply, this castle is located north of the famous Kamakura and northwest of Ofuna Subway Station of the later Japanese JR Line. As a strategic point connecting Edo to the northeast and Odawara to the west,
The status of Yusheng City in the entire Kanto is very important.
For the Sea Trade Alliance, it is not only the forward land base to defend Misaki Castle, but also an important base once the Sea Trade Alliance decides to attack on land: it can attack Odawara Castle to the west, and Edo to the east - that is,
Tokyo in later generations. So from this perspective, it can be seen that unless Gao Jingshi intends to give up his stronghold in Kanto, Yusheng City will definitely hold on to the end.
Holding on to the end sounds heroic, but the real battlefield is not just the majesty of the iron horse in the history books, but also dripping with blood, broken arms and limbs, and the lives of countless people reduced to nothing. Especially Narita Kai at this time
The mentioned power balance issue seems to have caused Yusheng City to be shrouded in a thick layer of blood mist in advance.
The Narita clan in Tamana Castle only has three thousand warriors, and many of them were probably selected from the peasant soldiers who performed well during the Battle of Ninja Castle, which resulted in the pitifully small number of peasant soldiers left.
, so to a certain extent, these three thousand people may really be the only ones who can fight in Yusheng City.
What kind of enemies did they face? To put it simply, there was Toyotomi Hideyoshi in the west and Tokugawa Ieyasu in the east - Tamana Castle was almost sandwiched between their two forces.
Of course, since Odawara Castle to the west was nominally assigned to Tokugawa Ieyasu, from the perspective of actual bordering, Tamana Castle was only surrounded by Tokugawa Ieyasu's power. However, Toyotomi Hideyoshi obviously would not forget Tamana
In addition to the threat of Rope Castle and the Misaki Castle behind it, he is very likely to let Tokugawa Ieyasu take action, and he may not personally intervene at some point.
Even if we only talk about Tokugawa Ieyasu, his strength cannot be underestimated. Although on the surface, Tokugawa Ieyasu only had 35,000 soldiers, the "Mikawa Samurai" of this era was famous.
Not to mention anything else, just say that Tokugawa Ieyasu used this kind of strength to gain the military upper hand over Toyotomi Hideyoshi in the Battle of Komaki Nagakute (roughly Tokugawa Ieyasu 30,000 vs. Toyotomi Hideyoshi 120,000).
Knowing how powerful the Mikawa samurai were under the command system of Tokugawa Ieyasu and the "Tokugawa Four Heavenly Kings" - at least in Japan, they must be first-class.
The Narita clan had almost no martial name worth mentioning before the Battle of Ninja Castle, and the person who had a martial name in the Battle of Ninja Castle actually married into the Ming Dynasty, so at this time, Yusheng Castle was almost
Without defense, at least in the eyes of Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu, it was probably just a dish.
Of course, Narita Kai is very aware of the strength of her mother's family. Recently, she has always been worried about the safety of Tamana Castle. She is even worried about whether the Narita clan will be exterminated because of this. Although it is not common in Japan to be directly killed and exterminated, the situation is different this time.
The Japanese civil war is not going on now. They are on the side of Ming Dynasty, which is equivalent to being hostile to the entire Japan.
In this case, family status and the honor of the family name may not be able to save the Narita family. If the Narita family wants to survive, the only way is to either jump off the ship quickly and embrace Toyotomi Hideyoshi's lap, or stand firm and firm.
On the side of the Ming Dynasty, with the help of the Maritime Trade Alliance, they fought against Toyotomi and Tokugawa!
The former seems easy to handle, but firstly, the Narita clan now knows the power of the sea trade alliance, and secondly, Narita Kai has already married into the Gao family, and it is impossible to escape from the Ming Dynasty capital and return to Japan. So in this case, Narita
If his wife jumped back, Narita Kai asked himself that he would have no choice but to die to apologize.
Of course, Narita Kai is not the governor of the Narita family, and it is not up to her to decide what to do with Tamana Castle. Even if the Narita family really rebels, only Gao Jingshi has the final say on whether she should die. However, from her perspective
Obviously, she doesn't want to see Narita revolt, which is equivalent to completely betraying her - even though this situation was actually very common in Japan during the Warring States Period.
In order to ensure that the Narita clan would not jump to the rebellion, Narita Kai proposed to Gao Pangshi: Misaki Castle should provide sufficient support to Tamana Castle as soon as possible, and even to ensure that nothing goes wrong, powerful force must be sent directly to Tamana Castle and even take over.
Jade Rope City!
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! She is indeed the first warrior in the Battle of Ninja City. Narita Kai's suggestion made Gao Pragmatic even more sure. Under her delicate and delicate face, there is a heart.
With a strong heart like a warrior, as long as she is willing to delegate power to her, she will definitely have her own opinions.
However, regarding the issue of taking over the defense of Yusheng City, Gao Pragmatic had more to worry about than Kafiji. He asked, "Have you ever considered how your father would feel if you did this?"
Unexpectedly, Narita Kai said categorically: "What we need to pay attention to at this time is not how my father feels, but how to defend the Jade Rope City." Perhaps she herself found that these words were too strong, so she quickly added: "Jade Rope City"
If the city can be defended, it doesn't matter what my father thinks; if Yusheng City cannot be defended, it doesn't matter what my father thinks."
Good guy, you might as well not add anything.
Gao pragmatic thought, this is really water thrown by a married daughter. Fortunately, I am not your father.
Faced with Gao Pragmatic's silence, Narita Kai became a little worried and glanced at Liu Xin quietly. She and Liu Xin seemed to have a good relationship. After receiving her look, the latter thought for a moment and then spoke: "Hou
Sir, I think what the third lady said makes sense. After all, the Narita family has not long since joined the army and has not directly seen the strength of our army. Once they are deceived by others, they may inevitably make misjudgments. At this time, our army stationed in Yusheng Castle and took over the city defense.
, will help strengthen his determination."
Gao pragmatic sighed and said: "Of course I understand the truth, but there are only two generals in Misaki City, one sea and one land. If Gao Yunping is sent to Yusheng City, what will happen to the defense of Misaki City? Luo Yuan is at sea.
He is a good hand, but he may not be able to command the defense of a city."
This is indeed a problem. Liu Xin also pondered for a moment and then said: "If it doesn't work, just transfer a general from China."
Gao pragmatic thought for a while and was about to nod, but he happened to find that Narita Kai was about to speak but hesitated. He was moved in his heart and deliberately continued to act hesitant to see what Narita Kai wanted to say. Who knew Narita Kai would hesitate for a while?
He fell silent and seemed to have given up on his thoughts.
Gao Pragmatic then asked: "Jia Feiji, you seem to have something to say?"
"Ah, I am...I am..." Narita Kai suddenly stuttered, and finally shook his head and said: "No more."
Gao Jingshi suddenly understood, narrowed his eyes slightly and asked: "Do you want to command the battle of Yusheng City?"
