Chapter 372 Ishikawa Taki Goes West

Golden Dragon Beach.

Lu Fuhai paced back and forth anxiously.

After Ishikawa Taki's sneak attack was successful, he led the fleet back and forth, and the pier finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the time has entered August, and the imperial envoys are rushing towards Jinlongtan step by step.But no matter how Xiao Zheng inquired, Chen Xiuzhu seemed to disappear out of thin air, and there was no news at all.

This made Lu Fuhai restless.

"General, why don't you ask Baekje King to help you find it?"

After all, this is the territory of the Baekje people. Both Chen Xiuzhu and Xiao Zheng are outsiders, who don't know the language and are unfamiliar with the place, so there is no way to find them.

It might be easier if the King of Baekje took action.

"This..." Lu Fuhai hesitated.

"General," the military advisers murmured, "His Royal Highness will be in more danger if you delay for one more day. And the imperial envoy will arrive at Jinlong Beach in less than three days. This matter can no longer be guaranteed."

Ugh.

Lu Fuhai closed his eyes with difficulty.

Why is he not aware of this fact, but he still has some fluke mentality.

Maybe there will be good news for Xiao Zheng within these three days?

The military advisers and lieutenants tried hard to persuade them a few more words, but the master general still remained silent.They had to give up.

Going around in circles, another half day passed.

Report!
The orderly at the pier couldn't find the main general in the Chinese army, so he turned around and rushed to Jinlongtan.

"Emergency news from the East Coast of Baekje."

Lu Fuhai took it over and glanced at it quickly, and suddenly he was refreshed.

Haha.

He laughed and picked up the helmet that was placed beside him.The anxiety and irritability of the whole person were swept away.The domineering and heroic spirit of the navy commander returned to him.

"The Chuanben will order that all intact warships immediately prepare for the battle. Go to sea early tomorrow morning and target the three grain islands of the Japanese pirates."

The lieutenant general and military advisers were astonished, and quickly took the news and looked at it carefully.

They quickly understood Lu Fuhai's thoughts.

At this time, the East China Sea Barrier attacked the Japanese pirate fleet guarding the food island and destroyed the food on the island. It can not only make up for the mistakes, but also throw the mess of Chen Xiuzhu's disappearance to Xiao Zheng, so that he can deal with the imperial envoy's questioning.

It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

only……

"General, many of our warships have not been fully repaired, and all kinds of crossbows and gunpowder craftsmen are still working overtime to build them. It will take some time to replenish them. Going to sea to fight at this time may not be good for us."

"Not good for us?" Lu Fuhai snorted coldly, "Didn't you see any news about General Ren?"

"The east coast of Baekje has been completely wiped out by the floods. The situation of Naoto Kudo is a hundred times more difficult than ours. Could it be that their boats are made of iron? Isn't it just rushing out to protect the three grain islands?" Around?"

"But..." Even so, the military advisers still subconsciously felt that something was wrong.

"It's nothing but," Lu Fuhai turned his head to look out, "We lost more than 80 battalion-class ships. There are some vacancies in combat power, but the Jade Dragon Fleet just happened to make up for it."

Although the Yulong fleet only has fifty ships, there are two warlords in it.In other words, it's not too far away.

"Come here," he said indiscriminately, "immediately inform General Lu. The entire Yulong Fleet will go eastward tomorrow morning."

To the west of Golden Dragon Beach, Yulong Fleet.

Lu Yulong quickly accepted Lu Fuhai's order.

He frowned, then turned his head and asked his personal guard, "Any news about Yuan'an and Xiangyang?"

When Ishikawa Taki retreated first after attacking the Golden Dragon Beach Wharf, Lu Yulong sent these two ships to follow them from a distance, trying to find their berths.

Now that so many days have passed, it is time for the two ships to return.

"Return to the general, the sea in the south is calm, and there is no shadow of Yuan'an and Xiangyang for the time being."

Lu Yulong frowned even deeper.

"With the food and fresh water reserves of Yuan'an and Xiangyang, how much is left in this meeting?"

"Returning to the general, if the warship does not fight or other accidents occur, the food and fresh water on board should last for two days."

If there is a storm or a fight, it's hard to tell.

Lu Yulong nodded, turned around and walked to the map.

The military advisers understood what he meant, and immediately used compasses to mark the sailing range of Yuan'an and Xiangyang.

Hey.

Someone suddenly joked, "These two ships are heading south, so they won't go back to their hometown in Pinghai County to visit relatives."

Haha.

As soon as this remark came out, the entire war room roared with laughter.

However, Lu Yulong's heart skipped a beat.

Pinghai County is located in the middle of Unchui, very far away from Baekje, and of course the circle on the map cannot be drawn.

But a lot of places in the north, such as Jiuyuan County, are still part of it.

----

On the east coast of Baekje, Jiutang Camp.

The monstrous flood has receded, revealing the long-lost land.

In addition to garbage on the ground is thick mud, people have nowhere to stay.

Out of nowhere came an angry cry.

"Fathers and folks, a mere flood is nothing compared to the erupting volcano in my hometown. God can't frighten our Yamato nation."

"Everyone, work hard and work hard, try to open up the fields within three days, and then plant all the crops..."

Naoto Jiudou listened for a few ears, and continued to inspect everywhere aimlessly with his own soldiers.

Report!
A little soldier rushed over with one deep kick and one shallow kick.

"General, Wu Siyuan, who was led by General Okudera to attack the post road, was blocked. The Baekje people got the news from somewhere, or they also wanted to take advantage of the flood to come out and step on us."

"Now the two armies are fighting evenly at the Yuanning Pass."

"On par," Naoto Jiutang pondered, "How many of them came?"

cough!
Xiaobing coughed lightly, seeing that he couldn't hide it, he had to report the truth.

"Baekje's leading general is Jiang Xuesong, twice as many as General Okudera."

The guards became anxious when they heard this, and quickly suggested: "General, Jiang Xuesong is Wu Siyuan's capable general, and one of the most capable generals in Baekje. Should we send someone to support General Okudera?"

Hisado Naoto didn't make a sound, as if he didn't hear at all.

He bent down and grabbed a handful of mud, watching silently.

Their Dahe mainland is just a few small islands, and the volcano in the middle erupted, and the country was destroyed immediately.

After finally arriving on the peninsula of Baekje, I thought that as long as I defeated the Baekje people, I could recuperate here.

However, the generals of Baekje stood up one after another, and it was not as easy as imagined to conquer here.

This is nothing, but at this moment a sudden storm destroyed everyone's hopes in an instant.

wow.

Naoto Hisado threw away the mud on his hands.

Some people cheered loudly before, and the voice of asking the people to work hard is still in my ears.

But Naoto Naoto knew in his heart that even the speaker was not sure, wondering if there would be a new storm or other natural disaster tomorrow, destroying all their hard work in the blink of an eye.

After all, no matter whether it is Yamato mainland or the Baekje Peninsula, it is too small, and a natural disaster can cover the entire country, leaving the people with nowhere to escape.

Naoto Hisado raised his head and looked far away to the west.

There is a country with vast land and rich resources, no matter what natural disasters can be easily resisted, it is the most ideal home.

"Commander Ishikawa Taki ordered that Ishikawa Taki lead the fleet to march westward and land on Yunchui's mainland."

laugh.

The guards were taken aback.

"General, General Tokugawa hopes that we will gain a firm foothold in Baekje first, and then we will slowly plan. Is it too reluctant to attack Yunchui at this time?"

Naoto Kudo didn't make a sound, but just waved his hand, "Send the order."

The East China Sea barrier has reached Baekje, and so many ships have been destroyed.It is estimated that Emperor Changxing will take Lu Fuhai into surgery soon.This is the most chaotic moment for the East China Sea barrier.

It can be said that there is no coastal defense along the coast of Yunchui.

While the major frontier armies are either in Baekje or Dingxi County, the only one that can rush over is the Central Army Corps guarding Xingji City.

But the generals of the Central Army are all wealthy sons of Xingji City, they know nothing but flattery, so there is no need to worry.

At the same time, the golden autumn in August is a good season, and the Yunchui people are preparing to harvest.As long as you go ashore, you don't have to worry about having nothing to eat.

Wait for Xingji City to react, and then dispatch other powerful legions to encircle and suppress. It will be late autumn or even winter, and Yunchui will be covered with heavy snow and it will be difficult to move.

Ishikawa Taki happened to have enough time to build the front fortress in preparation for receiving more Yamato troops and people in the coming year.
