East China Sea, Sishan Islands.
The main island is Shangyang Island.
Ishikawa Taki sat in the main seat, frowning.
The commanders of each fleet were sitting in front of him, all looking at him eagerly.
In other words, looking at the information in front of Ishikawa Taki.
That was a message from Yamato Lord General Kudo Naoto.
The vast sea is clear at a glance.
Neither sailing nor hiding is easy.
Once the messengers are targeted by the enemy, there is almost nowhere to hide. If the information carried is not destroyed in time, it will naturally fall into the hands of the enemy.
Therefore, there were only four words on the paper in front of Ishikawa Taki.
"Act on expediency."
Wow.
Ishikawa Taki spread out the map and his eyes fell deeply on the east of the ocean.
That's their hometown.
His eyes slowly moved westward, and finally landed on three small points east of Baekje.
That is the location of the three food islands.
boom.
Ishikawa Taki punched the table hard.
There was a bang, startling the generals in the hall. In particular, Doi Yongto, who had gotten into trouble a few days ago, buried his head deeply.
"Lu Fuhai! East China Sea Barrier!"
Ishikawa Taki seemed unaware of the reactions of his men. He gritted his teeth and squeezed out the name of his old rival.
These three food islands were once again taken over by Lu Fuhai with the East China Sea Barrier.
After several battles, the grains and vegetables that were finally replanted on the three islands were lost in the blink of an eye, causing no harvest.
That's not all.
At that time, Yamato happened to have a fleet passing by Nanri Island and was preparing to sail to the Sishan Islands to send more soldiers and ships to Ishikawa Taki.
On one side are troop transports and a few frigates, on the other side is the entire Yunchui Navy armed to the teeth. Not long after the two sides met, the fleet was sent directly to the bottom of the sea by the East China Sea barrier.
Hold!
Ishikawa Taki cursed again.
Without these troops and ships constantly sent from the mainland, he would have to think twice if he wanted his soldiers to fight or die regardless of their own safety in the future.
"General, the East China Sea Barrier is now heading west. It is estimated that they will first go to Jinlong Beach to rest and replenish. As for whether they plan to stay at Jinlong Beach or return to Yunchui's homeland, it is not yet known."
boom.
Ishikawa Taki smashed the table again.
If Lu Fuhai, after replenishing troops at Jinlongtan, takes his fleet back to the three food islands, he will guard Yamato's troop transport channel and completely isolate the Sishan Islands from the Yamato mainland.
That's trouble.
"Let the spies quickly find out their movements!"
"yes!"
"General," Suzuki Yamato stood up, "the weather is getting colder and colder, and there is not much food and winter clothing on the island. General Kudo asked us to act expediently, do you think?"
"Suzuki," Ishikawa Taki calmed down before looking at his confidant. He asked: "What do you mean?"
cough.
Suzuki Yamato walked to the map.
"General, there is no way for the army to stay on this barren island. We now have three roads, and it is true that there are only two directions from which we can attack."
The generals in the chamber nodded in understanding.
There are three routes, one is to go east and return to the east coast of Baekje where Kudang Naoto is; the second is to go north and continue to attack Jinlongtan; the third is to go west and land on the mainland of Unchui.
To the east that was impossible. Kudo Naoto still had many people to feed, and at the same time, he didn't have much food in hand.
As for heading north…
well!
Ishikawa Taki sighed in his heart.
He looked at the Xingluo military flag that said "One sword and one sword to block the falling stars" posted above Jinlong Beach, and he felt a little disheartened.
The Starfall Legion is world-famous for its invincibility in land battles.
Even if they defeated Xiao Zheng who was guarding the Jinlongtan Pier, it would be difficult for them to gain favor from the Starfall Legion, let alone cross them into the hinterland of Baekje to grab food.
All that remains is to go west.
When he thought of this, Ishikawa Taki glared at Doi Yuuto with murderous intent.
If this bastard hadn't gone out without permission to pursue Lu Yulong's Jade Dragon Fleet, they might have been standing on the mainland of Yunchui and enjoying the good life.
Now there are police posts set up everywhere along the coast of Yunchui.
It was basically impossible for them to land secretly and plunder the Yunchui people before they could react.
Ishikawa Taki calmed down the killing intent in his eyes and turned to ask Zuojima Kazuma, who was in charge of intelligence.
"General Zuodao, what's the situation on the east bank of Yunchui now?"
Zuojima Kazuma glanced at Doi Yongto, his face full of embarrassment.
"Back to General, the counties along Yunchui are now very vigilant."
"No matter day or night, there are people watching the sea. At the same time, any ship going out to sea must be carefully screened and interrogated by the officers and soldiers guarding the shore. As a result, many of my brothers were exposed and suffered heavy losses."
"It can be said that it is difficult to send news back to the island as easily as in the past."
Um.
Ishikawa Taki nodded expressionlessly and said nothing else.
Zuo Dao and Zhen were clever and quickly put away other thoughts.
He swallowed slightly.
"General, although the news sent back by the brothers is much less, there is still some information."
"Although Emperor Changxing and the Yunchui Military Department have known about the situation in the East China Sea for a long time, according to the news from the brothers in Xingji City, it seems that they are more concerned about which prince will be appointed as the crown prince, so they have not made any adjustments to the East China Sea for a long time. Soldiers."
Buzz
Everyone in the meeting hall was in high spirits.
Someone couldn't wait to speak out, "Does it mean that the only place on the east coast of Yunchui is Mo Canghai's garrison?"
"That's right." Zuojima Kazuma nodded affirmatively.
Ha ha.
Everyone was happy.
This is really good news.
"General," Zuo Dao Kazuma hesitated for a moment, "Brothers from Xingji City also heard a rumor. It seems that Emperor Changxing's health has not been well recently, so the Yunchui royal family is anxious to establish a heir apparent."
Having said this, he paused.
"This is just gossip. I cannot guarantee how true it is."
boom!
Ishikawa Taki's eyes flickered, and he lightly punched the table in front of him.
"Whether Emperor Changxing's health is good or bad, it has nothing to do with us. Of course, if his health really can no longer hold up, causing the princes to be busy fighting for the throne and paying no attention to the East China Sea, that will naturally be a great thing for us. thing."
"And we don't have much food on the island anymore, and General Jiutang has allowed us to move. Therefore, it is not appropriate for the army to delay any longer."
"Generals, follow your orders."
Wow!
Everyone in the meeting hall stood up at once, staring at the general's mouth nervously and excitedly.
The fight is finally about to begin again.
"Tomorrow at noon, kill the few captured Yun Chui soldiers to sacrifice the flag. Everyone is ready to go out."
"yes!"
Ishikawa Taki nodded with satisfaction, his eyes falling on Doi Yongto's face.
"General Doi is the landing forward, leading the Doi Fleet, Furumori Fleet, and Yamamoto Fleet, a total of ten warships, as well as all the battle battalions and squadrons attached to the three fleets, to set off from the island and head straight here."
He tapped the Dinghai Pier in Huayang County on the map.
"Whenever the forward fleet arrives at Dinghai Pier, it will launch an attack. There is no need to wait for dark or anything else. Do you understand?"
"The general will understand!" Doi Yongren shouted.
"Very good. After occupying Dinghai Pier, two thousand people will be left to guard the terminal and wait for the follow-up fleet. The others will attack southward and strive to defeat the nearest Binbao County as quickly as possible."
"Then immediately send people to reinforce the city defense of Binbao County. That will be our first city. Is it clear?"
"Clear!" Doi Yuto knew that this was his only way to survive, and he quickly shouted with all his strength, "I will fight to the death to complete the mission!"
First latest.
