Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 201
The naval warfare tactics of the Datang Navy have just been tested, and the facts have proved to be effective.

The news of the defeat of the Japanese fleet at Baijiangkou of Baekje Kingdom may have already spread to the mainland. Three days later, the Datang Navy Chen Ship outside the port of Nagasaki, Wa Kingdom, once again put on the formation of Baijiangkou to wipe out the enemy.

At this time, in the port of Nagasaki, Japan, the size of the fleet leaving the port to fight is much smaller than that of Baijiangkou.

The more than [-] small warships of the Japanese country that went to Baekje should be waged by the Japanese country for this battle.

The Japanese nation was defeated, and the entire fleet was wiped out at Baijiangkou. The fleet left behind in Nagasaki Port was almost completely unable to pose any threat to the Datang Navy.

Li Qinzai squinted his eyes and roughly counted. There were more than a hundred Japanese warships sailing from Nagasaki Port, and there were more than sixty Tang Navy warships commanded by Li Qinzai and Cheng Boxianneng.

More than [-] large ships, against a hundred small fishing boats...

Amidst the sound of rumbling drums, the Datang navy lined up and slowly rolled over.

The crush without any suspense, even mentioning the process of the naval battle made Japanese people sad. More than 100 small warships were submerged under the huge waves of the Datang Navy in an instant.

Without even a decent resistance, the boat approached and weakly shot a few arrows at the Datang warship, and then was fired several times by the three-eyed blunderbuss. The Japanese on the boat died and jumped into the sea.

Then it was time for the three-eyed gun to reap human lives.According to Li Qinzai's order, no matter who resisted on the small boat or the Japanese who jumped into the sea, they were all shot with three-eyed blunderbuss, and no one was left alive, and no prisoners of war were taken.

In the Japanese history books many years later, there are only four cryptic words about this sudden war, "the sea is completely red".

Rolling all the way like this, the battleship of the Datang Navy slowly docked in Nagasaki.

Countless Japanese gathered at the port of Nagasaki, and they still did not give up and fired wildly at the warship slowly approaching the shore.

The three-eyed blunderbuss on the Datang battleship were of course not polite. After a few rounds of shooting, the Japanese arrow array was in chaos.

The three-eyed blunderbuss is a shotgun, and the gunpowder is mixed with many sharp iron pieces. After igniting and firing, the iron pieces are ejected from the muzzle, and the damage to the enemy is in pieces. Such power is by no means comparable to bows and arrows, especially It is a close combat, and the three-eyed gun is even more invincible.

The Japanese have never seen firearms, let alone know how powerful they are.

As soon as they fought, the Japanese were shocked to find that this strange looking weapon that could make a loud noise and emit flames was so sharp that it could knock down a whole group of people with a single shot.

Under the cover of [-] three-eyed guns, the soldiers on the battleship of the Tang Army calmly landed and formed an array in the open space of the port, while the Japanese who resisted were all killed and injured, and the remnants fled one after another.

The Tang army on land is even more invincible, unstoppable in today's entire Asia.

Upstairs in the battleship seat, Cheng Boxian turned his head to look at Li Qinzai, and said, "My dear brother Jingchu, this battle is your idea, tell me, what is the regulation after our soldiers land?"

Li Qinzai said indifferently: "Replenish food, grass and water on the spot, and then head east all the way to the capital of Japan."

Cheng Boxian moved his face and said, "Dump the king's city and waste the palace?"

Li Qinzai asked strangely, "Isn't this how the country is destroyed?"

Cheng Boxian's expression was disturbed, the destruction of the country, of course it was done in this way, how could it be so cruel.

The Tang and Silla allied forces conquered Baekje, and destroyed Baekje from the inside to the outside. The whole country was completely occupied by foreign countries, and Baekje became a country that was wiped out in the true sense. .

But...the king ordered Baekje to be destroyed, and the teacher was famous, so how to destroy the Wa country?Has the emperor of the Tang Dynasty issued an edict of conquest?Did the courtiers in Chang'an agree?
Cheng Boxian sighed, rubbed his face vigorously, and muttered: "I always feel like I'm on a boat..."

Li Qinzai patted him on the shoulder, and said very literaryly: "We can't go back, Brother Shangxian, we can't go back."

Pointing to the blood-stained sea, and to the Japanese fleeing in panic at the port, Li Qinzai said: "The war has already begun, and our army has also landed on the mainland of the Japanese country. It is hard to recover from the flood, and there is no turning back when you open the bow. It is better to defeat the Japanese country with peace of mind." I have a hemiplegia, and I will have an explanation when I return to Chang'an."

"In the battle of Baijiangkou, the Japanese country first provoked the Tang Dynasty. Today's Datang and the Japanese country are belligerent countries, understand? Although we violated the order to land on the island, we fought against the enemy. You are the general in charge of the army. In front of the enemy Hesitating is a taboo for generals."

Cheng Boxian gritted his teeth, and said: "The situation is like this, let's do it first!"

"Pass down my general order, the whole army advances, attack the city when it sees the city, plunder the land when it sees the land, and kill the thief when it sees the thief!"

As soon as the words fell, a general on the deck suddenly clasped his fists and said, "General Jin, can you allow the brothers under his command to go to Tucheng?"

Cheng Boxian took a quick look at Li Qinzai. Although he was a general in charge of the army, it was Li Qinzai who gave advice along the way, and Cheng Boxian couldn't help but focus on Li Qinzai.

Li Qinzai turned his head decisively, remained silent, and pretended not to hear.

Cheng Boxian understood, gritted his teeth, and said, "Every city trapped can be slaughtered for a day. Only the young are killed, women and children are not killed."

The general will gladly take the order.

There are rules for massacring the city, not to act recklessly without discipline and scruples, this is the rule of the Tang army.How long to slaughter, who to slaughter, etc., had clear military orders before the war.

In the second year of Longshuo, in the middle of February.

The navy of the Tang Army landed at Nagasaki Port on Kyushu Island, Japan, and brought the war of Baekje to the mainland of Japan.

On the first day when the Tang army landed, Nagasaki Castle fell, blood was everywhere in the city, and the subjects were crying and crying.

Hundreds of thousands of Japanese people in Nagasaki fell to the ground begging for work under the sword of the Tang army. The Tang army obeyed the order of General Cheng Boxian, slaughtered the city in one day, and plundered the treasury and private property like a mountain.

The massacre of the city vented the pressure of the war, and the plundering satisfied the desire for property. When the [-]-strong Tang army marched eastward from Nagasaki again, the whole army was full of spirits, full of fighting spirit, and their spirits were completely different.

After the Tang army left Nagasaki City, there were bloody corpses everywhere in the city, ten rooms and nine empty rooms, naked women crying and crying, all middle-aged men were slaughtered, and the city was full of flames. The largest foreign port city in Japan was almost reduced to ruins. .

On February [-]th of the second year of Longshuo, the lord of the Wa Kingdom urgently dispatched [-] troops from Shikoku and Honshu Island to intercept the Tang army. The two armies encountered each other in Xiaguan, and a fierce battle broke out.

On February [-]th, the [-] Japanese army was defeated and fled, and the Tang army suffered more than [-] casualties.

In this era, firearms are completely crushing cold weapons, and it is almost effortless. If the supply line of the soldiers of the Tang army is not too long, and the soldiers holding the guns are not wearing heavy armor, even the casualties of more than 1000 people would not have to be paid.

After this battle, the Wa country was completely in a panic.

Because the whole country has no soldiers to use.

In the battle of Baijiangkou in Baekje, the Wa Kingdom sent more than [-] troops, and the entire army was wiped out. In the battle of the local Shimonoseki, the remaining [-] troops of the Wa Kingdom were defeated again.

At that time, the country's standing army was less than [-], and the rest of the army was in the hands of those selfish small country leaders. After the First World War in Xiaguan, fearing the strength of the Tang army, the capital of the country, Asuka City, was in chaos.

The news of Xiaguan's defeat spread to Asuka City. The regent of the Wa Kingdom, the prince Zhongdaxiong, urgently summoned his courtiers to discuss.

February twenty-fourth.

Li Qinzai refused to see the peace envoy of the Wa Kingdom and expelled him from the camp.Tang Jun continued to march eastward.

On February [-]th, the envoys for peace were expelled, and the news that the Tang army continued to advance eastward spread to Asuka City.

With powerful enemies oppressing the border and internal and external troubles, the eldest brother and the prince had to compromise internally. On February [-], his family issued an imperial edict to allow the powerful and powerful in the country to have private soldiers.

In early March, the Tang army continued to advance to Okayama.

So far, the Tang army has occupied nearly half of the territory of the Wa Kingdom, and the traces of the forward scouts have appeared outside Asuka City, Kyoto.
