Chapter 402 Arson
"If you defend the city, it will definitely not work!" Wang Wenzuo said with a smile: "But in any case, this is also the fundamental place of the Japanese kingdom for hundreds of years. The Queen Qiyu occupied this place first, and the Japanese people's hearts have been settled first. If you play chess, you will occupy Tian Yuan first!"

"That's true!" Cui Hongdu said with a smile, "But since there is going to be a war, do you want to send some soldiers from Baekje as backup?"

Wang Wenzuo leaned against the table, his fingers brushed the smooth paint surface, the orange cat in the yard was squatting on the wall, coveting the sparrow on the tree not far away, he was the orange cat, and Princess Qitama was the sparrow ?Where is the eldest brother and the prince?Is it a praying mantis preyed on by a sparrow or a hunter hiding in the grass?Suddenly Wang Wenzuo felt a little upset.

"Don't worry, it's not time yet!" Wang Wenzuo said in a deep voice, "Don't send troops to intervene until the end!"

"As ordered!"

"But there's one more thing to do right now!"

"what's up?"

"You call Cao Sengnu, and I will let him meet someone!"

Omi, Otsu, Ishidazhuang.

Under the eyes of everyone, Fuyu Fengzhang put the newly cast crown on his head.

The ancient crown of the King of Nambuyu was lost when the Goguryeo people conquered the old capital of Baekje in the fifth century A.D. when they conquered the old capital of Baekje. It was circulated among the kings of Baekje until 660 AD when the Tang army united with the Silla people to break through the capital of Baekje. The crown and the captured Baekje royal family were taken to Chang'an by the Tang people.Therefore, after Fuyu Fengzhang was invited to return to Baekje, the crown on his head was cast by five of the best coppersmiths at that time: the names of the former kings were engraved on the silver casting base, and five golden spikes in the shape of mountains , which symbolizes the five capitals of Baekje.However, this crown did not stay on Fuyu Fengzhang's head for long. The Tang army destroyed the main force of the Fuguo Army and the Japanese under Zhouliu City. Fuyu Fengzhang had to flee to the Japanese Kingdom with the remaining supporters. Just disappeared from the top of his head.And this time, the crown appeared on his head again.

"In Asuka, the Japanese are killing each other for the throne!" Fuyu Fengzhang said loudly, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us! Occupying Asuka, the Ampei Department will support us!"

Although Fuyu Fengzhang's voice is very high-pitched, there are not many people who support him. Most of the Baekje people are bewildered. They don't understand why they suddenly attacked the Japanese who took them in. Seeing Fuyu Fengzhang's complexion became ugly when his subordinates looked like this. Just as he was about to say something more, Sha Zha Xiangru stood up.

"March into Asuka and revive Baekje!"

"March into Asuka, revive Baekje!" This time, many people responded. After all, everyone here is willing to abandon their homeland and come to Wa Kingdom, and there is no doubt about their determination to revive their homeland.

Seeing Sha Zha Xiangru's support, Fuyu Fengzhang showed a gleam of joy on his face, and he said loudly: "I will reward everyone who follows me to Asuka capital this time! Gold, silver, and manors, I don't care." Will be stingy!"

After completing the mobilization, Fuyu Fengzhang set off immediately. In order to avoid being blocked by the Japanese garrison along the way, Fuyu Fengzhang did not choose the usual road, but chose the small road to the west. As the march continued, the farmland on both sides of the road Instead of forests, villages and manors became smaller and more scattered, with higher hills and deeper valleys.Fuyu Fengzhang was the first to carry the dry food bag on his back, followed the path between the rocks, and finally crossed the mountains in the north of the Nara Basin in the evening of the sixth day, and entered Asuki.

"Raise the flag!" Fuyu Fengzhang ordered: "We want to attack the rebels!"

"Fight against the traitor?" An officer asked, "Who is the traitor?"

"Everyone!" Fuyu Fengzhang showed a sinister smile, "Everyone who is still here is a traitor!"

Amaterasu Shrine.

"Have all the letters sent to other countries been sent?" Princess Saitama asked.

"It was all sent out yesterday!" Hai Hairen said with a smile: "But I'm afraid it's useless to send letters alone. Most of the countries of Omi, Owari, and Mino will stand on Katsuragi's side, and we must raise as many people as possible." Soldiers, send out a large army, so they will change their positions!"

"That's right!" Princess Saitama said, "Where's the outpost guarding the road leading to the north? Any news?"

"I have sent troops to strengthen, and if they encounter enemies, they will send messengers immediately!"

"That's good, what we need now is time!" Princess Saitama smiled and said, "By the way, let me tell you some good news. The envoy of the Tang Dynasty has promised me yesterday that he is willing to hand over all the captives who stayed in Baekje to We, use it to conquer Katsuragi!"

"Oh? That's really good news!" The Hairen laughed: "There are at least 2 people over there, and they are all well-trained soldiers. If they can be in our hands, Katsuragi will win Mino and Owari. It’s not a big deal for the countries of Jinjiang and Jinjiang! By the way, did the envoys of the Tang people put forward any conditions?”

"It's still those three conditions!" Princess Saitama smiled and said, "I have already agreed to some trade matters!"

"That would be the best!" Prince Hairen said with a smile: "You can also write down this matter in the next document, so that some countries that are still vacillating will stand up!"

"That's right!" Princess Qiyu stood up excitedly. She walked to the window and said suddenly, "Isn't it evening now? Why is it bright again in the north? Could it be that the sun has risen from the north again?"

The man from Haihai stood up, walked to the window, and stared intently for a moment.

"It's fire!" He turned his head back with a grim look, and then he licked his thumb and raised it in the air. "According to the current limelight, the fire should not be blown this way!"

As the people from the sea said, the sky was getting darker, but the fire was getting brighter and brighter. In the end, it seemed that the whole north was on fire.

"We must send people to put out the fire immediately, otherwise the entire Asuka Kyoto will be burned!" Saitama Princess said.

"Yes, I'll go there myself!" Dahai said: "At this time, there must be no accidents in the capital!"

The action of the sea people was very fast. Only two quarters of an hour later, more than 1000 soldiers rushed to the north. They were ordered to pull down the burning houses with long spears with iron hooks, so as to prevent the fire from spreading and destroy the adjacent houses. Also lit.

"Everyone, move faster! Finish work earlier, and go back to rest earlier!" Ji Jian Chijue shouted loudly. As a family member, he doesn't need to do the work himself, he just needs to ride on horseback and direct his subordinates to work.As more and more houses were knocked down, the fire gradually became smaller and the surrounding area became darker, which made him feel more and more uneasy in his heart, as if something was hiding in the darkness and was peeping at him.

"Who?" A soldier yelled in alarm: "Stop!" He straightened his spear and pointed it at the smoke, and he could vaguely see several figures shaking.

The bowstring pierced the air, and at the moment before hearing the scream, Chi Yue subconsciously lowered his body and crawled on the horse's back, and then he felt a breeze blowing on his back.It was an arrow, and there were enemies hiding behind it. He drew out the arrow, strung the bow, and shouted loudly: "There are enemies! There are enemies in the north!"

Seeing that Chi Yan caught a glimpse of a figure in the smoke.The second soldier was as dead as the first, blood gushing from his torn throat.Then figures and arrows flew by, and there were curses, shouts, and howls of pain everywhere.Seeing that Chi Yu saw a soldier staggering backwards, knocking over three people, a short spear pierced through his chest, like a sapling growing out of the soil.

The Baekje people rushed out of the smoke, piercing the resister's chest with their spears, and saw that the red horse's mount went mad with the stimulation of the slaughter, standing on its hind legs and kicking its hooves fiercely.With great difficulty, he managed to control his mount when a long spear stabbed him from the side. He bowed his back to push aside the long spear, drew his knife backhand and slashed down. Then he knocked down the second man with his horse, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Everyone, come closer, don't panic!" !” But no one heard his shouts, and there were more and more enemies around him, so he had to turn his horse and run away, wet grass whipping his face, and a spear flying past his ear.If the horse breaks its legs, they will catch up with me and kill me. Seeing the trace, Chi Yu thought to himself, but the gods and Buddhas are with him, the horse is fine, and the arrows did not hit him, and the shouts of killing gradually came from behind weakened.

When the mount stopped fleeing, Chi Jian found himself alone, wandering alone in the tall grass, with severe pain in his right thigh.He looked down and was surprised to see an arrow go into the back of his thigh.When did it happen? He grabbed the shaft of the arrow and pulled it, but the arrow was buried deep in the flesh, and the more he pulled, the more painful it became.He tried to recall the scene when he was attacked, but all he could remember was chaos.Who is the attacker?Could it be that the eldest brother, the prince, came back?But it's clear that troops have been stationed at the sentry post at the mountain pass?If you attack those guard posts first, there must be a messenger to inform you?How could he kill the capital so suddenly?Besides, this is Asuka, and there are shrines and temples everywhere, so the Prince Zhong will not let the soldiers just set it on fire?Thinking of this, his thoughts became more and more disordered.

Seeing that Chi Yan shook his head, unable to find an answer, he awkwardly slid down the mare's back, his injured leg suddenly went limp, and he had to swallow and scream.It will be painful.But the arrows had to be worked out, and it was no use waiting.So Ji Jian Chizhu held the arrow feathers, took a deep breath, and pushed forward.He grunted, then cursed.It was so painful that I stopped halfway through.I'm stupid now, any kid could kill me, he thought, but there's no choice but to go on.Reluctantly, he tried again...quickly and shudderingly stopped.Again.This time he yelled, and the arrow finally passed through the front of his thigh.Seeing that Chi Yan pulled back the blood-stained lower garment to get a firmer grip, then wrinkled his face, and slowly passed the arrow shaft through his leg.He didn't know why he didn't faint.

Finally, he drew out his dagger, cut off the shaft of the arrow, took out the shaft, cut a large piece of cloth from his sleeve to wrap the wound, and then climbed awkwardly on his horse and headed south.

"Someone set the fire on purpose!" Cao Wenzong said, "Otherwise it wouldn't burn so fast!"

Wang Wenzuo nodded. At that time, even the Japanese palace was a structure of grass and trees. Once it caught fire, it would be out of control. In order to avoid large-scale fires, most of the buildings in Asuka Kyoto had wide intervals between them. Strange, it is another thing to have such a large-scale fire at the same time, it can only be a large-scale arson.

"Order the whole army to put on armor and wait for orders!" Wang Wenzuo said in a deep voice: "Divided into two teams, one team is commanded by Cui Hongdu, and the other team obeys my orders!"

"Follow the order!"

"Everything is ready!" Cui Hongdu asked, "Where are we going now?"

"Amaterasu Shrine! Meet Princess Saitama first!"

--------------------------

When Wang Wenzuo and his party arrived at Amaterasu Shrine, it was already dark, and it took him a long time to let the guards confirm his identity.Wang Wenzuo ordered Cui Hongdu to be stationed outside the palace, and he went straight into the palace. The first thing he said when he saw Princess Qiyu was: "What happened?"

"I don't know!" Princess Saitama's answer was simple and clear: "It should be that a group of enemies passed through the mountains in the north through a path that we don't know, and attacked Asuki!"

"It's not surprising, anything can happen in a war!" Wang Wenzuo took off his helmet and sat cross-legged, his nails made a crisp sound: "Where are the people from the sea?"

"He took people out to fight the fire, and was attacked. It is not known whether he is dead or alive!"

"The fire spread so fast, it must be man-made!" Wang Wenzuo said in a deep voice, "In this case, we should wait until dawn!"

"You are right! Now what shall we do?"

"The easiest way is to set fire too! The wind direction is in our favor!" Wang Wenzuo said: "Fire against fire!"

"This won't work!" Princess Saitama denied it very firmly: "This is Asuka, if the burning is over, then we will be over!"

"Then we should send spies to find out who the enemy is and how many troops there are!"

"You're right! I'll send out spies right away!"

"And contain the defeated soldiers as much as possible!" Wang Wenzuo said: "It is night now, and the enemy can only be defeated and cannot be surrounded. Most of the soldiers should still be alive! They are just scared! You should have a big drum here, right? You can order Beat the drums, so that all the people in Asuka can hear the drums here, and they will naturally gather!"

"I understand!" Princess Saitama nodded: "I will order this immediately!"

The horse was already very tired, and stopped from time to time to eat the weeds on the roadside, but it was found that the red pole could not let it rest. He had to rush back before the enemy found him. Don't fall off the horse.To make matters worse, he realized that he might have lost his way, and he had to stop and look up for the stars to get his way.But dark clouds covered the sky, making him shake his head in despair.
