Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2374 Uesugi Kenshin surrenders to Qin
Chapter 2370: Kenshin Uesugi surrenders to Qin Dynasty
Why did the Qin army withdraw suddenly?

The reason is very simple, that is, I don't want to make wedding dresses for the Ming army.

The elites of Takeda and Date were annihilated by Wu Qi and Wang Jian, and they also restrained the remaining [-]% of the troops of the two families.

The Ming army raided the rear of the two families at this time. Isn't this clearly coming to seize the victory of the Qin army?

Although when dividing the chassis, the Qin army didn't like the Northeast region where the Takeda and Date families are located, but I don't think it's one thing. It's another thing for you Ming army to grab it without even saying hello. up.

The two armies of Takeda Date on the front line are on the defensive. Without taking the initiative to attack, even if Wu Qi and Wang Jian lead the army, it will be difficult to defeat them in a short time.

And as long as the Qin army is still on the front line, Takeda and Date will not dare to transfer troops from the front line to support the rear.

If the Qin army continues to stalemate with the two families, the final result can only be a fight between the snipe and the clam, and the Ming army will benefit.

Wu Qi and Wang Jian are not stupid, so naturally they would not do such a thing, so they both chose to withdraw their troops voluntarily.

The two were only halfway through the retreat, and they received Zhou Yu's order to withdraw their troops.

Obviously, both Zhou Yu and Guo Jia also saw Zhu Di's sinister intentions, so they ordered Wu Qi and Wang Jian to withdraw to prevent the Ming army from using the Qin army to profit.

In addition, Zhou Yu has another intention, which is to transfer Wu Qi and Wang Jian to participate in the war between Jiayue and China.

To be honest, Zhou Yu was also quite embarrassed to call Wu Qi and Wang Jian back.

Wu Qi's and Wang Jian's side divisions had a total strength of only [-] troops, but they had nearly wiped out [-] invading enemies.

However, Zhou Yu held the main force of the [-] Qin army and nearly [-] Qin Xiejun, but was blocked in Chunri Mountain City, losing nearly [-] prisoners of war, and failed to capture Chunri Mountain City.

After such a comparison, it seems that Zhou Yu is too mediocre.

Of course, Zhou Yu didn't care about this. He knew that the main reason why the main force was blocked in Chunri Mountain City and could not enter was because the city was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Kasuga Castle was built on the mountain, not only the Uesugi family's first fortified city, but also one of the most fortified cities in the Wa Kingdom. Even in the Central Plains, it would be difficult to attack.

Of course, with the departure of Susanoo and Kagudo, the morale of the defenders in Kasugayama Castle plummeted, and their defensive power was also greatly reduced.

Zhou Yu saw the opportunity and commanded the army to attack with all its strength. After two days of siege, he finally broke through the first strong city of Uesugi, but he also paid the price of five thousand Qin Xiejun casualties.

A mere Chunri Mountain City caused the Qin Army to lose [-] Qin Xiejun, which was more casualties than the Qin Army's previous casualties combined.

It can also be seen from this that the Uesugi family is different from other forces in the Wa Kingdom. It is really very difficult to fight, even more difficult than the princes of the Central Plains.

After Kasugayama Castle was breached, the defender Kakizaki Keijia was captured, three of Kenshin's Seven Hands were killed in battle, the other four generals were captured, and Uesugi's members were all killed in battle.

As for the [-] defenders in the city, [-] died in battle and [-] surrendered.

Zhou Yu broke through Chunri Mountain City and opened up a channel to attack Yue China. Next, he would naturally lead his army to attack Yue China.

However, there are also strong mountain cities in Vietnam. If they attack by force, they will suffer heavy casualties. This will require a large number of Japanese surrendered troops to serve as cannon fodder.

As for the [-] surrendered troops from Kasugayama Castle, and even all the other prisoners of the Uesugi family, Zhou Yu promised to treat them kindly before surrendering, so it is obvious that they cannot be used as cannon fodder for the time being.

It was precisely because of this that Zhou Yu fell into a situation where there was not enough cannon fodder. At this moment, Wu Qi and Wang Jian's army entered his sight.

When the troops were divided into battles, Wu Qi and Wang Jian each had [-] troops, but now after repeated battles, the number of troops has not decreased, but has increased more and more.

In addition to the [-] Qin troops under Wu Qi's command, there were also [-] Wutian surrendered troops.

Under Wang Jian, there were 1 Qin troops and [-] Yida troops.

The descendants of the Uesugi family cannot be used as cannon fodder, but the descendants of the Takeda and Date families are obviously not included. Isn't this the best candidate for cannon fodder?

Ready-made cannon fodder is useless.

This is also Zhou Yu's second intention for bringing Wu Qi and Wang Jian back.

When Wu Qi and Wang Jian arrived at Chunri Mountain City, Zhou Yu had already defeated half of Yue China, but lost another [-] Qin Xiejun.

After learning about the situation of the battle, Wang Jian couldn't help admiring: "Kenshin Uesugi deserves to be called the god of the Japanese army, and it is indeed difficult enough."

Wu Qi also nodded in agreement.

The way Uesugi Kenshin defends is different from Takeda Shingen Date Masamune.

She mobilized all the soldiers and civilians across the country, from seventy to eighty-year-old children to ten-year-old children, all participated in it, and what was waged was a thorough people's war.

Even in the Central Plains, such situations are rare.

Qin Wen used to be like this, repelling the invasion of the Huns, and only then did the Jin army come into being.

But now, even if you search the entire Wa country, there is no second force that can do this.

Only Kenshin Uesugi, who is supported enough by the people, can unite the whole country to resist aggression.

This is not the first time Kenshin Uesugi has done this.

After Oda Nobunaga won the three Honshu Wars, he sent troops to the Uesugi family each time, but failed, and had no choice but to withdraw due to too much resistance.

This time Uesugi Kenshin adopted the same method, but her opponent was no longer Oda Nobunaga, but Zhou Yu of Daqin.

Faced with this kind of situation where the whole country is fighting to the death, even if Wu Qi and Wang Jian, who have a higher commander, lead the army, the situation will not be much better than Zhou Yu.

The general's personal command ability is of little use in this situation, because no matter how much you command, you still have to attack to break through the city.

It has to be said that Sado Jinshan, the largest cake, is obviously not so easy to swallow. If you want to get it, you have to crush the hardest bone of the Uesugi family.

But even if he forced himself into the Qin army and wanted to crush this bone by force, he still had to smash a few teeth.

Zhou Yu had just landed in Echigo Kingdom, and realized that the Uesugi family was not easy to deal with, and it was precisely because of this that he did not massacre the city as a deterrent, because not only would it not scare Uesugi's soldiers and civilians, but it would completely enrage them, and thus carry out More fierce resistance.

In order to reduce the resistance of the Uesugi family, Zhou Yu decided to adopt Guo Jia's strategy, not to massacre the city, not to harass the civilians, to treat prisoners of war kindly, not to use prisoners of war as cannon fodder, and to accept surrendered generals.

Guo Jia's strategy is indeed useful.

The soldiers and civilians of the Uesugi family saw that the Qin army really kept its promise, did not slaughter the city after capturing the city, and treated the prisoners of war kindly, and their resistance to the Qin army was indeed reduced a lot.

It is also true that if Zhou Yu captured and captured the next half of Yue China, the casualties he paid would only be [-], otherwise it would have more than doubled.

Although the resistance of the Uesugi family is gradually decreasing, it is still a great loss to the Qin army, even if it is a surrendered army.

Therefore, in order to minimize the loss, Zhou Yu decided not to attack other mountain castles by force, but the army went straight to the capital of the Uesugi family, Toyama Castle.

Toyama Castle, just by hearing the name, you can tell that it is a mountain city built on the mountain, and as the capital of the Uesugi family, with Kenshin Uesugi sitting in the town, it must be another mountain castle like Kasuga Castle, even more difficult to defend. Attacked city.

Before Wu Qi and Wang Jian crossed China today, Zhou Yu cleared all the obstacles leading to Fushan City.

After Wu Qi and Wang Jian joined forces, Zhou Yu replenished the strength of the two men's headquarters, and then personally led [-] Qin troops and [-] Qin Xie troops to Jiangfushan City, and directly came to encircle the city. Zhou Yu, Wu Qi, and Wang Jian each surrounded one side.

Just when Zhou Yu was about to attack the city, he received a request for help from the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Song and Wu.

It turned out that after the Wei, Song and Wu Three Kingdoms invaded the Kinki Plain, no one could defeat Yamata no Orochi and Shuten Doji, and the casualties they paid were increasing, so they wanted to borrow from the Qin army to defeat Yamata no Orochi in the future.

As for Shuten-douji, although he is also very strong, he is obviously not as strong as Yamata no Orochi, and the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms can deal with it by themselves.

After receiving the request from the Three Kingdoms for help, Zhou Yu summoned all the generals under his command to discuss whether to send someone to help.

Most of the generals headed by Lu Bu opposed sending people to support.

In their view, it is more in the interests of Daqin to let Wei, Song, Wu and the Zhitian family fight to lose both sides.

The greater the losses of the Wei, Song, Wu and Wu Kingdoms in the Wa Kingdom, the less resistance the Qin Army will have to attack the Central Plains in the future, so there is no need to help the Three Kingdoms to deal with the Oda family.

However, a small group of people headed by military advisers Guo Jia, Wu Qi, and Wang Jian supported sending people to support the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms.

The reason is also very simple. The Oda family is the biggest enemy of Daqin in the country of Wa, and it is obviously not so easy to control if both sides fight to lose.

Once the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Song and Wu were defeated by the Oda family, then Daqin would have to fight against the Oda family alone, and the price he would have to pay would be even greater.

But if the Zhitian family is defeated by the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Song and Wu, even if the Three Kingdoms can occupy a large number of territories in the Wa Kingdom, when the Qin army finishes training in the future and sends troops to conquer the Central Plains, these territories must still belong to the Great Qin.

Moreover, Daqin originally planned to voluntarily give up some of his interests in the Wa Kingdom, so as to stabilize the three allies of Wei, Song and Wu, and let them let go of their wariness towards Daqin.

Zhou Yu was persuaded by Guo Jia and decided to send strong generals to support him, but the Qin army also had a tough battle to fight, and he definitely couldn't send the strongest Lv Bu Zhao Yun there, so he ordered Dianwei Xu Chu to support the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces.

After Dian Wei and Xu Chu left, Zhou Yu immediately ordered to attack Fushan Castle.

In the siege battle on the first day alone, the Qin army lost [-] Qin Xiejun, but they didn't even go up the tower, they just filled up the moat of Toyama Castle.

The next day, Zhou Yu received two good news.

Xu Huang, who guards the six countries in the west, has completed the training of the [-] surrendered troops, and is ready to transfer the [-] surrendered troops to him to fight.

And Yu Jin, who stayed on Kyushu Island, also completed the initial training of this Japanese army after recruiting [-] Qin Xiejun on the spot.

In other words, Zhou Yu had an additional [-] Qin Xiejun, which could be used as cannon fodder for attacking the city.

The most important thing is that the two territories occupied by the Qin army, a total of nine countries, have basically stabilized, and they can continue to recruit troops and provide cannon fodder for the Qin army continuously.

In other words, Zhou Yu will never be short of cannon fodder in the future.

After Zhou Yu learned about this, he decisively transferred [-] Qin Xiejun from Xu Huang's command, and [-] Qin Xiejun from Yu Jin's command.

In addition, Zhou Yu also ordered Xu Huang and Yu Jin to recruit another [-] troops each to serve as a reserve army while maintaining local rule.

The 11 Qin Xiejun was transported to China by the navy and participated in the offensive and defensive battle of Fushan City. The total strength of the Qin Army also reached 8, of which the Qin Xiejun alone had more than [-].

Regarding the news of the arrival of the reinforcements, Zhou Yu not only did not conceal the news, but even publicized it. At the same time, he spread that Shintoism had been exterminated, and both Susanoo and Kagudo had fled. He wanted to use rumors to damage the morale of the defenders.

But Kenshin Uesugi had been guarding against Zhou Yu's move for a long time, and he took precautions in advance, directly stating that Qin Jun would spread rumors in order to break down the resistance of the defenders, so no matter what Qin Jun said, don't believe it.

Since Uesugi Kenshin had been vaccinated in advance, and his control over Toyama Castle was strong enough, Zhou Yu's rumor strategy did not play any role.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu could only continue to attack regardless of the cost. Anyway, this is also a fratricide between the Wa people, and he would not feel bad even if there were more Wa people who died.

After a full five days of strong attack, the Qin army lost 4000 Qin Xiejun, and an average of [-] people were killed every day. Such casualties are not insignificant.

Even Uesugi Kenshin thought that Zhou Yu would slow down the offensive and let the defenders take a breather, but received news that [-] Qin Xiejun came to help.

Only then did Uesugi Kenshin know that the rumors spread by Zhou Yu were all true, which also made Uesugi Kenshin both indignant and desperate.

Indignant at being so greedy for life and fear of death, it's okay to take refuge in Qin Jun so easily, and also help Qin Jun to attack his compatriots, and even treat compatriots harder than foreigners.

Desperate that Zhou Yu will no longer lack troops to attack the city in the future. With the continuous consumption of Qin Xiejun, the number of defenders will become smaller and smaller, and sooner or later they will follow in the footsteps of Otomo and Mori.

The Qin Xiejun of the Qin Army can replenish continuously, but the defenders in Toyama City have no way to replenish.

There are only [-] people in Fushan City, and all the young people have been incorporated into the army. The only ones left are the old and weak, women and children.

Although the old and the weak can also defend the city, Uesugi Kenshin really couldn't bear to let the old and weak, women and children go to the battlefield to die.

As for this moment, Uesugi Kenshin realized that it was pointless to continue to resist, because all the people from Japan were killing each other.

As for the Qin army, apart from consuming some food, grass and armaments, its own losses were actually minimal, and even the food, grass and armaments were snatched from the Japanese kingdom.

After a fierce ideological struggle, Uesugi Kenshin decided to negotiate with Zhou Yu. After all, she still has some capital in her hands. up.

After three days of negotiations, Uesugi Kenshin finally opened the city gate and voluntarily surrendered to the Qin army.
