The last three kingdoms

Chapter 1280
Both sea battles and water battles are Liu Yin's weakness. After more than ten years of fighting on the battlefield, Liu Yin fought all land battles. Occasionally, the few water battles were just crossing rivers and rivers. The east bank can also see the west bank, which is basically unobstructed.

But this time the battle across the sea was completely fought on the vast sea. Whether it was Liu Yin, or many generals of the Han army, even the surrendered generals of the State of Wu, it was the first time in his life. I am afraid that in Sun Tzu's Art of War and Wu Qi's Art of War, there is no ready-made experience to find.

Liu Yin appointed Yan Xun as the governor of Japan and Sun Xiu as the deputy governor.In order to command the navy to fight, Liu Yin specially transferred Sun Xiu from Luoyang. After all, Sun Xiu had commanded the navy in Soochow and had rich experience in the tactics of the navy. He was used as Yan Xun's deputy. , can better command warships to cross the sea.

After Sun Xiu returned to Jihan, he still lived in Luoyang with the seal of General Fubo, and basically had nothing to do. Sun Xiu also knew that generals like them would basically never have the chance to lead the army again. , Take a part-time job, get a Dai salary, and support them for the rest of their lives until they die. Maybe this is their final destination.

But Sun Xiu didn't expect that he would still be employed. After receiving Liu Yin's appointment as the deputy governor of Japan, Sun Xiu's enthusiasm was rekindled. He quickly rushed to Sanhan and joined Liu Yin's army. All the naval drills in winter were commanded by Sun Xiu.

As for Yan Xun's position as the governor of the Japanese army, it was because Liu Yin valued Yan Xun's commanding ability and his familiarity with the geography of the Three Koreas and the Japanese kingdom. Yan Xun was none other than him.

The first attack echelon was carefully selected by Liu Yin. Among them, Han soldiers accounted for [-]%, and Goguryeo and Puyu soldiers accounted for [-]%.

Speaking of Goguryeo, the former Goguryeo prince Gao Siyu, who was defeated and surrendered in the Battle of Baiya Mountain, was taken prisoner, but Liu Yin didn't kill him, but put him under house arrest.Later, after King Meichuan of Goguryeo was killed by Xianbei people, Liu Yin passed Gao Siyou to Busan and asked him if he would take the crime and make meritorious service.

Gao Siyou couldn't wait to agree, he had had enough of the days of being under house arrest.

Liu Yin selected 6000 people from the Han army and 4000 people from the Goguryeo and Fuyu people to form a special mixed formation to serve as the first round of attacking corps.

In March of the fourth year of Xingguo in Ji Han Dynasty, under the leadership of Governor Yan Xun and Deputy Governor Sun Xiu, the Japanese army set sail from Busan Port and embarked on a journey to the east.

At that time, the sea was calm and calm, and after two days of sailing, the Japanese army finally arrived at the sea off Kyushu Island, Japan.

The name of Kyushu Island at this time was Chikushi Island. Yamatai Kingdom was once powerful and rose in the northeast of Chikushi Island when Queen Himiko ruled. Later, it continued to expand and merged thirty or forty small countries, becoming the most powerful in the north of Chikushi Island. kingdom.

However, in the southern part of Chikushi Island, there is a country called Dog Nu Country, which has always been at odds with Yamatai Country.Since Himiko's death, the expansion momentum of Yamatai Kingdom has also been curbed. On Zizhu Island, the two sides are in a balance of power.

However, this balance of power was quickly broken. After the Han army quelled the Three Koreas, the news that they built warships in Pusan ​​and prepared to go east to attack the Japanese was also quickly spread to the Japanese country, which immediately caused a shock in all countries. .

Liu Yin's construction of the warship in Busan was originally a big movement, and it was difficult to hide it from others, so Liu Yin didn't deliberately block the news and let it happen.After this kind of news spread to the Wa country, it was hard not to let people not pay attention.

At this time, the queen of Yamatai was Taiyu, the daughter of Himihu. After hearing the news, the queen of Yamatai was very angry. In her opinion, Queen Himiko had paid tribute to the Central Plains Dynasty twice and was bestowed by the emperor of Wei. Gold Seal and Purple Ribbon, Yamatai Kingdom's attitude towards the Central Plains Dynasty is extremely submissive, but for some reason, this time the Central Plains Dynasty raised troops to prepare for a crusade, which made Taiwan and the queen very angry. These Central Plains Dynasty people are really too much.

In fact, Taiwan and the queen are not clear. The court of the Wei State that granted Himiko the title has long since disappeared. Even the Jin State, which inherited the mantle of the Wei State, has also been wiped out. The current Central Plains Dynasty has already changed. Taiwan and the Queen are unknown Reasonably, I thought it was the Central Plains Dynasty who broke their promises and came to attack from the east.

Anger is anger, but in order to deal with the Han army, Taiwan and the Queen ordered the troops of their dependent countries to rush to the west of Chikuzi Island, which is adjacent to Sanhan, to build a solid line of defense at the place where the Han army might land to prevent the Han army from attacking. login.

In addition to actively preparing for the war, Taiwan and the Queen are also thinking about reconciling with the Gou Nu Kingdom to the south, so as to seek common ground to resist the invasion of foreign enemies.

Naturally, it is impossible for the dog slave country not to know the benefits and harms. If the Han army breaks through the Yamatai country, the fate of the dog slave country will be reduced to the same as that of the Yamatai country. The king was very suspicious, so the Gonu Kingdom temporarily ceased fighting with the Yamatai Kingdom, and sent troops to the western region of its own border for further defense.

In fact, although Chikushi Island is surrounded by the sea, there are only some relatively gentle beaches where the Han army can land.

The attack of the Han army naturally chose the beach closest to Busan Port. Yan Xun could see clearly from the flagship that the Japanese really built a long wall on this beach, planning to use it as a fortification to Prevent the Han army from landing on the beach.

Yan Xun smiled. The Japanese thought too simply. You must know that the special mixed formation he brought this time can be called the elite among the elite, with extraordinary combat power. It is definitely not from Yamatai or Gonu Kingdom. strength against.

The warships of the Han army were moored in the open sea, and they could not move forward. After all, the warships of the Han army were divided into large ships and small and medium ships. Large warships could easily run aground. Small boats or wading on foot attacked the Japanese army stationed on the coast.

If you want to gain a foothold on the beach, you must stand up a deep beachhead. In this way, the follow-up troops of the Han army can continuously rush to Chikushi Island, forming an advantage in strength.So now their task is not to rush to break through the Japanese defensive positions, but to completely land on the beach and establish a beachhead that can be attacked and defended.
