The more than 20 miles of road were littered with the bodies of the Japanese coalition forces who had failed to escape.
There were also smart ones who knelt down and surrendered. Zhang Fei naturally had no time to pay attention to them and someone would be responsible for the follow-up troops.
Zhang Fei rode on horseback and slashed all the way, so that he donated blood and returned to the camp. On the way here, the Japanese soldiers looked at the bloody Zhang Fei and kept chanting: "Devil God, Demon God Lord" with eyes full of admiration and awe. .
He told Pang Tong, who was sorting out the follow-up events in the camp, about this situation. Pang Tong thought about it and explained it to Zhang Fei: "My lord said that this nation is like this, so my lord plans to completely tame them."
Domestication?
This word is usually used for beasts, but Zhang Fei doesn't want to worry about that.
Pang Tong looked at Zhang Fei's Tiance armor, whose blood had solidified into black and red, and nodded: "You must have killed a lot of enemies this time, and the armor has turned black and red."
"Just 300. There's no point in mowing the grass. Lao Pang, you can handle the rest. I'll let the kids wash the armor."
"Well, go ahead"
Zhang Fei took his soldiers back to his tent. With the help of his soldiers, he took off his set of Tiance armor. Looking at the Tiance armor that had condensed into black and red, Zhang Fei said with a smile: "It's better. The armor given by my lord works well and looks good, and the whole body is not stained with much blood. Hehe, I will ask my lord for another set later."
Lu Meng's ship had nothing to do except to leave the rear, and he quickly came back to help Pang Tong start to deal with the prisoners.
Collect combat data.
There were more than 2,000 casualties in the Tang Dynasty, and more than 100,000 arrows were fired. The weapons and armor were all worn out. The small steel cannon used 88 rounds of shells, and half of the kerosene for the crossbows was used up.
Captured 10,000 Japanese prisoners and killed about 40,000 enemies.
It can be said to be a great victory, and the battle loss ratio is nearly 1/20, which is rare in history.
Pang Tong sorted out the battle report, and then gave it to Gan Ning when he prepared it and sent him back to Tang Dynasty for Li Mingda to review.
Then according to his own arrangements, the 10,000 captives simply armed them, and used a large army to attack the cities of the Japanese island country to expand their sphere of influence.
However, Pang Tong and the others found that their thinking was too complicated. Huang Ji, Kameda Kazufeng and others, who had fewer than 10,000 people killed by the Tang Dynasty, fled in a hurry, running towards their own Tokyo without stopping along the way.
The news of such a hasty defeat spread, causing people in the towns and villages on the road to drag their families along with them.
Only a few people who didn't want to leave, or were unable to leave, stayed. The Japanese people who originally didn't have many people had less to do.
Pang Tong and Zhang Fei were completely taking over the city along the way, but Pang Tong and the others did not dare to rush in after Zhang Fei. After all, they had few people. If they opened up too much, they would be defeated by each one.
After simply occupying several nearby towns, Pang Tong stopped his march, gathered the supplies and people, and began to shrink the defense line.
However, Pang Tong waited for nearly 10 days before he saw ships of the Tang Dynasty approaching at the port. There were less than 10 warships, and the leader was still unwilling to be content, but a thousand-man general.
Lu Meng asked the other party in confusion: "What is the situation? Why are you the only ones here? Why are there so many people from Japan on this ship?"
After the Thousand Men General described how Lu Meng arrived, it turned out that Gan Ning met the Bangzi Kingdom’s fleet when they were out at sea, and the two sides started fighting. Needless to say, the result was that the Bangzi Kingdom itself was not strong at sea, and in addition to this The second was a transport ship mainly transporting troops, which was directly defeated by Gan Ning and completely annihilated.
Ninety percent of Bangzi's reinforcements were fed to the fish, shrimps, crabs and sharks in the sea.
Gan Ning, who then captured the opponent's chart, took his people directly up from the Tsushima Strait below and arrived at Tokyo Bay without saying a word. Since Huang Ji led his troops out, only a small number of defenders were left. The soldiers in the city are the opponents of more than 10,000 soldiers of the East China Sea Fleet.
Under the leadership of Gan Ning, he easily captured the entire city of Tokyo and captured all the nobles and royal families inside.
Huang Ji, Kameda Kazufeng and others who were still on the run had no idea who occupied Kyoto. They thought it was a group of thieves or the Bangzi Kingdom who broke their promises.
Naturally, thinking that I can't beat the Tang Dynasty, I can't beat you, so I attacked Gan Ning without saying a word.
In fact, Huang Ji can't be blamed here. Gan Ning was so stupid that he covered his team's flag and didn't show it until the battle started.
Huang Ji and Kameda seemed to know that this was the case. In order to boost their final morale, and because they believed that the elites they left behind were enough to fight, they personally led the charge.
When they discovered Gan Ning's Tiancejia, they seemed to have met Dad Tang again when they returned to themselves. They were able to outrun Gan Ning, but Gan Ning confronted him and killed all the generals around them one by one. .
Huang Ji was caught in Gan Ning's hands like a chicken. When Kameda Yifeng saw that something was wrong, he ran away with his men and horses, heading north towards his hometown.
He knew that if the Tang army reached the Japanese island country in Tokyo, it would be over. If he wanted to do something, he could only go to his least favorite country. As for rescuing Shu Ming, as long as Shu Ming didn't die.
Regarding Shu Ming's life and death, he guessed that as the Tang Dynasty, they had received Confucian education and would not attack the royal family of a country. This would go against their way of governing the country and their way of life. Even Kameda Yifeng and Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty didn't kill the Turks when they caught him, so Shu Ming would definitely be fine.
Kameda Kazuo left, and the Tokugawa, Oda, and Kusanagi families had no choice. They either desperately rescued Huangji or surrendered on their knees. At the critical moment, their desperate side was revealed.
Launched a frantic charge towards Gan Ning, trying to rescue Huang Ji.
The unparalleled military formation of the Tang Dynasty once again taught them that your father is still your father, and if you can't beat him, you can't beat him.
The sky full of crossbow arrows disrupted their formation, and the soldiers lined up in a row cut them down mercilessly like wheat.
Donations of blood were scattered all over the ground. Of the more than 10,000 Japanese island nation coalition troops, less than 2,000 were left, and the rest were all killed.
Along the way, some of the people who followed the Japanese Allied Forces ran back in a hurry, while others knelt down and surrendered, hoping that Dad Tang would not kill them.
The army of the Tang Dynasty was not bandits, and Gan Ning was a murderer. He asked these people to follow the captives into the city and find a place to resettle themselves. Then they cleaned up the casualties and sent a ship to escort Huangji and others to Donghai Port. Prepare to transport it back to Datang to hear Li Mingda's fate.
