“Military advisor, if I want to ask Qin Hao for equipment, I’d like you to go and make a trip.”
After finishing speaking, Wang Mang added: "The Qin army occupied Jizhou and Qingbei and captured a large amount of weapons and equipment, which the Qin army alone could not use up.
Qin Hao is not a stingy person. As long as the truth is explained, he should give us equipment. Even if he doesn't give it, he should still sell it, so you must talk more, strategist. "
Wu Yong suddenly smiled bitterly: "I will do my best."
Wang Mang nodded and said to Chen Qingzhi: "Brother Qing, I will support Mahan here, and I will leave the Japanese pirates in the south to you."
Chen Qingzhi asked: "I wonder if my lord wants to suppress it quickly or slowly?"
Wang Mang didn't even think about it and said directly: "Of course it will be soon."
If Wang Mang wants to complete the great cause of unifying the three Koreas, he must do it before the end of the Qin-Qing War. Otherwise, even if the Manchu Qing Dynasty is defeated by the Qin army and the entire army is annihilated, the remaining strength of the Manchu Qing Dynasty will prevent Wang Mang from conquering the Qin Dynasty. Sanhan is still a breeze.
In Wang Mang's view, although Nurhachi, the great ancestor of the Qing Dynasty, was more powerful, he was not as good as Temujin. Even Temujin was defeated miserably at the hands of Qin Hao. Nurhachi would not end well if he faced off against Qin Hao head-on.
After Nurhaci is defeated this time, he will definitely send troops to three Koreas to restore the battle damage in Youzhou by occupying the three Koreas, so there is not much time left for Wang Mang to operate.
“If we want to quickly wipe out the Japanese pirates, the number of troops sent this time probably cannot be less than 10,000.”
Hearing what Chen Qingzhi said, Wang Mang weighed the situation in his mind without 10,000 troops. It is conceivable that he would be under a lot of pressure by then.
But once again thinking about the pressure from the Manchus, Wang Mang gritted his teeth decisively and said: "Okay, I will give you an army of 10,000 people. In addition, the cavalry team will also be brought over for you."
“Thank you for your trust, Lord. I will definitely encircle and suppress these Japanese pirates in the shortest possible time.”
At this time, Hojo Tsunagi, who was plundering the southern part of Sanhan, did not know that Wang Mang sent Chen Qingzhi to lead an army of 10,000 to encircle and suppress him.
Of course, even if he knew about Hojo Tsusunari, he wouldn't care. He thought he would solve the plundering local princes of Sanhan, but he didn't know that those countries had long been destroyed by Wang Mang.
——————
Qingbei, Beihai County, and Chang'an County have just become battlefields between Han and Japanese.
Among all the Japanese-suppressing armies, the Qin army had the most abundant troops. Qingbei not only had Zhou Yu's 60,000 defenders, but also had 30,000 elite troops led by Qi Jiguang as reinforcements.
On the one hand, this shows the strength of the Qin army, and on the other hand, it also shows that Qin Hao attaches great importance to the Japanese pirates.
Qi Jiguang knew very well that the news of the arrival of 30,000 elite troops from the east would be likely to escape without a fight if the Japanese pirates learned about it. Therefore, he marched carefully along the way, avoiding everyone's sight as much as possible, even his own people. of.
After Qi Jiguang arrived in Qingbei, Zhou Yu didn't see Qi Jiguang's army and almost thought he came alone. After explaining, he realized that Qi Jiguang had hidden 30,000 elite troops in order to give Qingbei a fatal blow to the Japanese pirates. hit.
Under Zhou Yu's strict defense, the Japanese pirates did not succeed during this period. However, because the coastline of Qingbei was too long, the Qin army had too many places to defend, so its troops became more and more scattered.
Aware of this, Shangshang Jianxin used a strategy of exhausting his troops and used a feint to attack, deliberately attracting the Qin army to come for rescue, in order to make the Qin army exhausted and drain the energy of the army.
Zhou Yu saw through Shangshang Jianxin's trick at a glance. He divided the mobile troops in his hands into two teams. Once the Japanese pirates invaded, they would be sent out in turns, while the other team stayed to rest, easily defusing the Japanese pirates' plan to exhaust the troops.
After Qi Jiguang arrived, Zhou Yu took out a map of Japanese pirate activities. Through the seventeen activity locations of Japanese pirates, the two of them speculated on the three most likely places where Japanese pirates would appear next time, and also eliminated one more.
This method can only be used by the Qin army. After all, the Qin army has sufficient troops in Qingbei, and Zhou Yu's layout in Qingbei has few mistakes. There are not too many places for Japanese pirates to plunder.
Qi Jiguang and Zhou Yu each led an army and waited in Chang'an County and Ping'an County respectively. In the end, Qi Jiguang had better luck and waited for the Japanese troops who arrived in Chang'an County. “General Qi Jiguang, the Japanese pirates have arrived.”
Jin Tai suppressed the murderous intention in his heart and asked Qi Jiguang beside him: "Can I fight?"
"hold on."
Qi Jiguang lay on the slope, looked carefully at the Japanese army, and said calmly: "We only have an army of fifteen thousand. If we start fighting now, it will be difficult to annihilate all these Japanese pirates. What we want is to annihilate these beasts." "
“Well, okay, let’s wait a little longer.” Jin Tai said helplessly.
On the other side, Kananobu Kame and Motonari Mouri had not yet discovered that they had been ambushed, but were arguing over whether to withdraw their troops.
“Now Qingbei’s defenses are getting tighter and tighter, and the Qin army’s reinforcements don’t know when they will arrive. It is too dangerous to stay in Qingbei and plunder.”
Uesugi Kanenobu's eyes were full of solemnity and he said: "We have already grabbed a lot of money and food, and it is time to stop and return home."
Uesugi Kanenobu asked himself that he had used all his skills, but he still did not take advantage of Zhou Yu in the fight.
You must know that Zhou Yu is nothing at all among the famous generals in the Central Plains. Zhou Yu is so difficult to deal with. If Bai Qi, Yue Fei, Han Xin and others lead the army, how can Uesugi Kanenobu resist?
This fight with Zhou Yu made Uesugi Kanenobu realize the power of the Central Plains generals, and he no longer dared to be arrogant and watch the sky from a well.
Mao Liyuan, who had tasted the sweetness, was obviously unwilling to withdraw like this. He lost nearly half of his troops in Jizhou. Although he got a lot of money and food after coming to Qingbei, he could only barely make up his money. But if What's the point of him coming all the way to the Central Plains?
"There is no movement of reinforcements from the Qin Army at the moment. I think the reinforcements from the Qin Army will not arrive so soon. It is better to wait until this county is finished and then stop after grabbing another county."
"No, after this robbery, we must retreat." Uesugi Kanenobu said with an unquestionable expression.
"All right."
Mourimoto nodded helplessly. After all, the situation was stronger than the people. Without joining forces with Uesugi Kanenobu, it would be impossible for him to move forward in Qingbei with his small manpower.
Suddenly, a hail of arrows hit the Japanese army. The faces of Shangshan Kanshin and Mouri Yuan changed drastically. A bad premonition appeared in their hearts at the same time. They were probably ambushed.
“Soldiers, kill the Japanese pirates.”
Qi Jiguang jumped up from the ground, raised his gun and shouted: "Fire the arrow."
