News of Liangshan's invasion of southern Honshu began to spread to the north. The cities in the north were prepared. Ruan Xiaoqi, Zhang Shun and others also encountered certain difficulties when they attacked the cities. www
On the 25th day of the fourth lunar month, Kyoto finally got the news.
The people in Kyoto were panic-stricken. They still remembered the last time Liangshan invaded Kyushu Island. At that time, all the samurai in Japan gathered, but all the samurai were no match for Liangshan's army. That time, Japan lost Kyushu Island, and now Liangshan's
The army is coming again, and the Liangshan army is attacking Honshu Island, the most important island in Japan! If Honshu falls
If it falls, Japan will be doomed! In the future, under the rule of the Han people, no one will know what their fate will be! Although their lives are very difficult now, and it is very common for people to starve to death, but now they are after all
Under the rule of the great Emperor! The Emperor is benevolent, and the reason why the Emperor exploits them is to treat more cruel enemies...
On that night, the emperor urgently summoned all the military leaders to the palace.
The emperor's expression was very bad, and he was also very worried! They had originally planned that when Liangshan and the Song Dynasty went to war, they would take back Kyushu Island, and even counterattack Goryeo and enter the Central Plains, but they did not expect that Liangshan's second
A target turned out to be them! And,
Liangshan's military strength is still so strong! The fifty thousand soldiers of the southern camp, after years of hard training, were quietly wiped out by the Liangshan army! He thought his army was very powerful, and regarded the army as his own
He relied on him, but now he feels that the army is not reliable at all!
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry!" Konoe Sega came to the palace early and comforted him at this moment.
"Can I not worry? The 50,000 soldiers in the southern camp were wiped out just like that! Liangshan is too strong!" The emperor frowned and said.
"Your Majesty, I have received information that the Liangshan army came in the dark night in the rain. It was windy and rainy at the time. The southern camp did not notice them at all. Our soldiers were not prepared at all, so they succeeded in the surprise attack! If it was
We will never lose to them in a regular war!" Konoe Sega said.
"I heard that Liangshan's bows and arrows are extremely sharp. Is this true?" the emperor asked.
"Yes! This is because I didn't think carefully. We haven't developed bows and arrows in these years!" Konoe Sega lowered his head and said.
He only realized the huge role of bows and arrows in war after getting relevant information! That night, although the Liangshan army made a surprise attack, there were still 50,000 warriors in the southern camp, and many of them were awakened. However, Liangshan's bows and arrows
It was so strong that most of their warriors fell down before they could reach the enemy. This was also an important reason why the southern camp was wiped out!
However, at this moment, he was just thinking about it! Developing bows and arrows is not a simple matter! The reason why Liangshan's bows and arrows are so powerful is because of the continuous development of the Han people for more than a thousand years. Liangshan's bows and arrows even combined with Khitan bows
, the advantages of Jurchen bows, Mongolian bows, etc.! And Japanese bows and arrows
The technology is already very backward, and it is absolutely impossible to develop it in ten years! There is another important factor. Japan lacks excellent wood for making bows and arrows. This is also the reason why Japan has few bows in history! As technology develops, without materials, they
It is also impossible to form a real archery team.
"How many troops did Liangshan use?" the emperor asked.
"There are about 50,000 to 60,000 people attacking the southern camp, and 30,000 to 40,000 people attacking other places! Their total strength should be around 100,000, and they are basically the Liangshan Navy stationed on Kyushu Island." Konoe Sega said.
"It turns out there are only 100,000 people!" The emperor breathed a sigh of relief.
Warrior leaders arrived one after another. Some of these warrior leaders were worried, but more people were angry! Back then, the Han people invaded Kyushu Island and took away the territory belonging to the Japanese people. Now the Han people are coming again, and their goals are pointed at them.
How could they not be angry about their homeland!
"Your Majesty the Emperor, Regent, we must take action and teach the Han people a severe lesson!"
"Yes! We have been training for almost ten years, and our strength is more than ten times what it was before. Now we are invincible. It's time for us to take action against them!"
"The Han people are really hateful. They think we are the same as we were ten years ago! Huh, damn things!"
"Quiet down, everyone!" The Emperor coughed, and the room gradually became quiet.
"I know your anger, and I am extremely angry! But we still have to be careful. Do you know that all the fifty thousand warriors in the southern camp have died for their country!" Konoe Shika said.
"None of us are afraid of death, and we all dare to sacrifice ourselves! We still have 300,000 people in Kyoto, and we can all go to the battlefield and fight the Han people!" said a samurai leader.
"If you all die, what will happen to the Emperor? What will happen to Japan? We still need to discuss the strategy!" Konoe Sega frowned.
"Konoe-sama, what do you think we should do now?"
"I've been thinking about it, but I haven't come up with a good idea yet." Konoe Sega shook his head.
Konoe Sega has read a lot of soldiers over the years, but it is not that simple to put his knowledge of soldiers into practice! According to his idea, Japan has an army of 300,000, and they can all rush forward when the time comes!
But he also felt that this seemed inconsistent with the art of war. The art of war emphasized the use of tactics, but he didn't have any tactics to use now!
The other warriors also frowned, and they could not think of a good strategy.
"Lord Regent, I don't think there's any need to resort to tricks? Can't our army of 300,000 defeat 100,000 Han Chinese? We will win this battle!" Finally, a warrior said.
"Yes! Why use tricks?" The warriors finally started talking.
"In that case, there's no need to think about it!" Konoe Sega couldn't think of a good idea, and could only say with a bit of disgrace at this moment.
"We must rescue the south immediately. If the rescue is delayed, the cities in the south will be destroyed by the Han! Regent, this time you personally lead the troops and must destroy the Han!" the emperor said.
"Yes!" Konoe Sega responded quickly.
"Your Majesty, you also want to issue an edict, ordering all men in the north, as long as they are over eight years old and under eighty years old, to take up arms and go to fight in the south! This time we will not only drive them away, but this time we will enter
Goryeo!" Konoe Sega thought for a moment and then said.
"Okay!" The emperor thought for a while and agreed.
Soon, the warrior leaders left one after another, and they gathered their soldiers overnight. Not long after, there were voices everywhere in Kyoto to "annihilate Liangshan", "annihilate the Han people", and "counterattack Goryeo"! The sound was loud, and countless Japanese
The people were also awakened, and the warriors rushed to the people's homes. They pulled up all the men and ordered these men to fight with them!
At midnight, the samurai army began to take action! A total of 300,000 samurai troops headed south from various places! In addition to the samurai, there were 200,000 men from Kyoto and around Kyoto following them south! These 200,000 men were either
The old man is either a child, and they don’t have regular weapons, so
Some people were holding wooden sticks as weapons! They were extremely anxious and nervous. Some people wanted to escape. Unfortunately, the warriors were extremely cruel. Anyone who tried to escape, even an eight or nine-year-old child, would be killed by them! The one next to him would be killed.
The other warriors would just laugh non-stop, which they thought was very interesting.
"This time is completely different from last time! Last time we only had 100,000 people, and there was no regular army at that time! This time we have 500,000 people, and the regular army alone is 300,000. This time I am not enough to wipe out all the troops.
Han people!" Konoe Sega was riding on his horse, feeling extremely proud and secretly saying.
"Long live the Emperor! This battle will be won!"
"Long live!"
Such voices were heard everywhere in the army, and amid such voices, Konoe Sega finally gave the order to advance.
500,000 people headed south, and all the samurai were extremely excited! These samurai secretly swore that they would serve their country loyally and serve the emperor! The entire Japanese samurai army was filled with an aura of madness!
"Shingo Abe, you lead an army of 100,000 people at the front, and you are the front army! I lead an army of 100,000 people in the center, and I am the center army! Hei Yamamoto, you lead an army of 100,000 people at the rear, and you are the rear army! Our three armies
If we all attack together, we will be invincible!" Konoe Sega called the two samurai leaders to him and said.
"Yes, we are invincible!" The two warrior leaders lowered their heads and said.
Both of them are the best among the warriors, and their prestige among the warriors is extremely high! In the past, they were the ones who controlled the army, so naturally they will be allowed to manage the army this time!
The Japanese warriors are indeed elite. When they travel long distances, everyone moves at the same pace! Their speed is also extremely fast, but the speed of the common people is much slower!
The Japanese actually had horses, but the Japanese did not raise a large number of horses at this time. Their cavalry was very small, and they did not quite understand the important role of cavalry! In their army, horses were only used as foot power, and they were not used in real battles.
It's the infantry!
"Forward! Forward, don't stop!" Night and day, the Japanese army did not stop.
