Gao Zhang had to express his admiration for such an operation, but no matter what, almost all of Ping'an Jing was reduced to ruins.
Emperor Shirakawa had no choice but to move back to the old and dilapidated old capital of Namba-kyo. He looked at the map of the Japanese country and saw that it should be Namba-kyō in the Osaka area in later generations.
Gao Zhang couldn't help feeling secretly happy, and even had the urge to let Yao Pingzhong cooperate with Fang La in another special operation.
Conveniently, the Namba Kyoya was also stoked. Let's see where the old bald man from the Japanese country can move his capital.
However, in the end, Gao Zhang still pressed this very tempting idea. After all, the success of special operations requires great risk and suddenness.
We just did it once, it’s strange that the other party was unprepared, it’s better to wait and talk about it later.
Furthermore, Minamoto Yoshichichi, the famous general of Fujiwara Kingdom who occupied the entire Izumo Kingdom, recruited troops after receiving a large amount of ordnance and material support from Fujiwara Tadai.
What's important is that a large number of wealthy families who were originally loyal to the Fujiwara clan responded one after another. In less than half a month, the number of troops under Minamoto Yoshichichi's command reached 50,000.
Beginning to advance towards the Nagato Kingdom in the south, Taira Masamori had to mobilize his troops and generals to prepare for the attack.
But on the Fujiwara side, Fujiwara Tadai, who had been impatient for a long time, had already begun the battle to land on Shikoku Island with the help of the Song Dynasty cavalry.
Compared to the main island, which had a large army stationed there, Shikoku Island faced the Fujiwara Kingdom's army without any resistance, and easily took over the entire Shikoku Island.
When Taira Masamori received the news, he thought that the main force of Fujiwara Kingdom was on Shikoku Island and was trying to use all his strength to capture Minamoto Yoshichichi.
Twenty thousand Fujiwara soldiers, under the movement of the Song Dynasty fleet, have landed in Anyun Kingdom, defeated the Japanese army of An Yun, and won the landing battle.
#####
Fortunately, at this time, Taira Masamori received the decree from Emperor Shirakawa asking him to withdraw his troops, and the news of the landing of soldiers from Fujiwara Kingdom in Naanyun Kingdom also happened to come.
Until this moment, he realized that his soldiers and horses had been surrounded on three sides by the powerful Fujiwara Kingdom soldiers and horses.
Ping Zhengsheng did not even dare to delay the time to urinate, and without hesitation ordered the army to set off, intending to break out of the encirclement.
But just after leaving Nagato Country, they encountered a large army under the command of Minamoto Yoshinori.
After a fierce and fierce battle, Ping Zhengsheng, the famous Japanese general, finally broke through the blockage of Na Yuan's sworn relatives and broke through the encirclement.
When leaving Heian Jing, Ping Zhengsheng brought a mighty 60,000-strong army.
At that time, it could be said that they were showing off their power and were full of confidence, but now, there are less than 30,000 remaining soldiers under their command, and they are hastily withdrawing towards the Gyeonggi area in disgrace.
Just now, the Fujiwara clan of the Northern family was exterminated, the capital was moved to Namba Kyo, and a new emperor was established.
Before Emperor Shirakawa could take a breath after a busy schedule, the bad news that Shikoku Island had been occupied by Fujiwara Kingdom came.
Emperor Shirakawa immediately sent out a messenger with a curse, telling Naping Zhengsheng to safely withdraw to the Gyeonggi area.
As a result, Taira Masamori spent all his efforts to pass through the blockade of Fujiwara Kingdom, and the news that he led the remaining defeated soldiers towards the Gyeonggi area returned to Namba Kyo.
Emperor Baihe sat there in silence, unwilling to speak for a long time.
The 60,000-strong army was crippled, leaving less than 30,000 troops, even with the 30,000 troops raised by Ping Zhongsheng.
The Emperor Shirakawa was still worried, especially the news coming from Shikoku Island, or the news coming back from Heimasa on his way back to Gyeonggi in defeat.
They all told Emperor Shirakawa that there were a large number of Song people and even a large number of Song troops beside the Fujiwara soldiers who were fighting with them.
Until this time, during this period of time, the extremely busy Emperor Shirakawa finally thought of another thing.
In the letter that his younger brother, Prince Furen, once wrote to him from the Song Dynasty.
When he mentioned the credential, he was immediately scolded by Gao Zhang, the famous child prodigy of the Song Dynasty.
He also warned Fu Jen that if he wanted to negotiate terms with the Song Dynasty, he should first send an envoy to express his surrender to the Song Dynasty and take the title of emperor.
Otherwise, the Japanese country would have to bear the wrath of the Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers.
When I received the letter, I threw it into the wastebasket without even spitting on it.
Now think about it carefully, I am afraid that the current situation is inseparable from the Song Dynasty.
The more he thought about it, the uglier his face became. Emperor Shirakawa raised his head and looked at the left minister Yuan Youren.
"Has the cause of the fire in Heianjing been found out?"
"His Majesty, after thorough investigation by his ministers and questioning many people in the Gyeonggi area, finally found out.
On the night of the great fire in Heian-kyo, a group of particularly tall warriors, riding particularly tall horses, once appeared in Heian-kyo. "
When Prince Shirakawa heard these two "specials", he suddenly felt a special pain in his balls.
But he still controlled himself and motioned for Na Yuan Youren to continue speaking.
When Minamoto Yuhito mentioned that witnesses had seen those particularly tall samurai setting fire to Heian Kyo.
He also shouted that Emperor Shirakawa had issued a decree to annihilate the Fujiwara clan, kill Fujiwara loyalists, grant official positions, and reward him with thousands of taels of gold.
Prince Baihe was so angry that his whole body began to tremble, and he cursed Ba Ge several times.
Minamoto Youren quickly fell to the ground and begged the Shirakawa Emperor to calm down.
But Minamoto Arihito really doesn't think there is anything wrong with what the other party said. Besides, now that you have chopped off all the Fujiwara family members, I guess what those samurai said is the truth.
It's just that he was neither given an official position nor a reward of ten thousand taels of gold.
The furious Emperor Shirakawa asked why the cavalry appeared near Heian Kyo.
Yuan Youren had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to talk about the situations he had collected.
Someone once discovered that on the morning of the Heiankyo fire, they spotted the cavalry team galloping straight south.
At the same time, some people noticed that their clothes and armor were very gorgeous, which seemed inconsistent with the clothes and armor of the Japanese country.
Furthermore, he followed the clues and found a restored trestle in the abandoned port area of Owada.
After asking about the fishing village a few miles away from the abandoned port, I learned that a fleet had arrived here the day before the fire in Heian-kyo.
There were also samurai who came to warn them that they were not allowed to approach the port within three days, otherwise the entire village, regardless of gender, age or child, would be executed.
The more Emperor Baihe listened, the more ugly his face became.
"These rebels who burned down Heianjing actually came from the sea..."
"Exactly." Yuan Youren nodded heavily.
Emperor Baihe sat on the couch blankly for a long time, raised his eyelids and looked at Yuan Youren.
"Namba Kyo, it's right on the beach..."
"..."
