The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1787 etc.

It was this battle that almost sank the navy of the Wa Kingdom and lost too many manpower, which made the Wa Kingdom feel distressed, otherwise they would not have retreated so soon.

Only when it hurts will you know how powerful it is.

Liu Rengui took advantage of the power of Baijiangkou to directly approach the Dazaifu with one hundred thousand Great Tang Navy.

"General, are we going to fight the country of Wa?" On the deck of the Tang army's warship, Liu Rengui's deputy general had already seen the coastline of the country of Wa from a distance.

"Why do we come here if we don't fight it?" Liu Rengui said with a smile: "Since the Wa country started the war and wants to fight Tang Dynasty, now we are just fighting back."

"But the country of Wa has sent envoys, let's fight over there, the imperial court."

"Since when have you become like those civil servants in the court?" Liu Rengui sneered, "You are a general. Besides, do you think the Japanese envoy has arrived in Chang'an now? I don't know which sea it is on. It's floating."

Just relying on that ship alone, it is not bad to be able to survive on the sea. From Wa Kingdom to Datang Dengzhou, there is such a distance between them, how did they get there?If you want to go to Silla nearby, now that Silla can't take care of itself, how can you take care of them?

"Don't forget that the imperial court has not issued an order to stop the war between the two countries." Liu Rengui said.

Liu Rengui had already faintly felt that this was most likely the last time he would lead troops into battle, so in this war, he had to earn enough money for his retirement.

Firstly, it was the case of Li Jingxuan in the court, and secondly, after the end of this war, there should be no major wars in the Tang Dynasty within ten years. In a few years, his own The age is almost the time to become an official.

Therefore, this battle is very important to Liu Rengui, and he is eager for more meritorious deeds.

Therefore, he set his sights on the mainland of Japan.

If the Wa country can be disabled, he will be famous in history. The meritorious service accumulated in this battle can not only offset the damage caused by Li Jingxuan's writing, but also gain a lot of benefits after returning.

At least, the imperial court will never treat heroes badly, but Liu Rengui has beaten the majesty of the Datang Navy.

Regarding Li Jingxuan's going to Hexi, Liu Rengui was also worried for a while at first, but as the news spread, at least he didn't hear any bad news, so he gradually felt relieved. He didn't expect the crown prince would really do this , Li Jingxuan was transferred to Hexi, probably because Xuan Shijing led troops there in Anbei Dufu, so the crown prince was not worried about Li Jingxuan's accident in Hexi.

And the fact is just as Liu Rengui expected.

It can be said that the battle between Li Jingxuan and Lun Qinling just gave Datang a breakthrough in the war in the west. The defeat of Lun Qinling put Gong Song Gongzan into a dilemma.

Now the person stationed in Dazaifu is Abebirov who came from Asuka. Abebirov is Emperor Saimei, that is, the close minister of Queen Treasure of Wa Kingdom. A lot of strength, so he was trusted by Emperor Qiming. The navy that set off from Dazaifu to Baicunjiang was supposed to be led by Abebirov. Later, the navy disappeared, and Abebirov fled back in embarrassment Dazaifu.

"My lord, the fleet of the Tang army has been found in the nearby waters. Judging from the flags, it is the Tang army that attacked us in the Baicun River." Abebirov's men walked into the mansion and reported the scout's discovery to him.

"What? The Tang army has come here? Where are the Silla people? Why can't they see their navy? Why didn't they stop the Tang's navy?" Abebirov panicked after hearing the news.

"My lord, I'm afraid there is no hope for Silla now. The Tang Army's navy fleet has already arrived at our doorstep."

"Immediately gather people and prepare to defend the city." Abebirov said.

Now the sailor camp in Dazaifu is nothing but an empty shelf. The Tang Army sailors understand that they are here for Dazaifu. They don’t have sailors here, so they can’t take the initiative to attack, so they can only gather people to prepare to defend the city. , if Datang's navy lands, stop them at the seaside.

"Yes!" Abebirov's subordinates responded and left.

In the huge hall of the mansion, Abebirov couldn't sit still. He knew the strength of Dazaifu's troops. There was a navy before, so he could sit back and relax here, but now, fart!The navy is gone, even if it calls for a counterattack, how long can it last.

"Come on!"

"Here!" Inquired about an ashigaru coming in from outside.

"Immediately send a letter to Asuka, the Datang navy is attacking Dazaifu, requesting to send troops for support." Abebirov said.

"Yes!" Ashigaru responded.

Even if you start from Dazaifu to Asuka, the time required on the way is not short, because Dazaifu and Asuka are not on the same island at all, not only are they not on the same island, but there is an island in the middle. through.

Fortunately, it is safe, and there is no need to worry about Tang Jun infiltrating into the strait.

Dazaifu is in the northernmost part of Kyushu Island, while Asuka is in the southeast of Honshu, separated by Shikoku Island.

Abebirov was also beating drums in his heart. If the Tang army's offensive is fierce, how long can they last?

Can you wait until Asuka sends reinforcements over?
Liu Rengui's fleet arrived near the Dazaifu waters during the day, and when they got there, they just let the navy fleet anchor and stop at the same place.

"Pass down the order. When it is night, we must strengthen our defenses. In the evening after three days, we will land and attack the city." Liu Rengui said.

"Yes." Liu Rengui's deputy general responded.

The Japanese people on the opposite side should have spotted the traces of their fleet. After all, with such a large fleet, as long as you stand on the city wall by the sea and look into the distance, you can see the sea clearly and know that they have arrived. If they are nearby, they will definitely strengthen their defenses that night. Therefore, Liu Rengui will not let the army attack that night, so he will wait for a while.

If Dazaifu can be taken down smoothly, with the help of the [-] well-armored Tang army navy in his hands, he will sweep the entire island with confidence, and then turn this island into another naval base of Datang on the sea!
After Liu Rengui was stationed, he also sent someone to deliver a letter to Liu Renyuan, hoping that he would bring troops to join him here.

It is easy to take down the territory, but it takes some effort to defend it. If there are 10 people, if you fight and defend at the same time, it will be a bit stretched.

Among the mansions of Dazaifu
"My lord, the Tang army has stationed in the nearby waters."
