the next day.
"Next, we have to fight quickly." After checking, the younger sister Lu Qinglian sent us as a sign of sincerity, the distribution of power of the Fusang vassal in part of the southwestern coast of Quanzhou, Wuzhou and Jiangzhou, as well as After a brief introduction to his family background, Jiang Tian suddenly spoke up:
"Ancestor, I understand. This will allow them to work a little harder and quickly complete the preparation and replenishment of the army." The little round face quickly responded: "I thought we should seize the opportunity to expand the results of the battle and achieve the goal of fighting quickly... "
"It's not just as simple as expanding the results of the battle." Jiang Tian shook his head, walked to the large leather map hanging on the wall, and began to draw dots: "You noticed, these marked vassals, and Do they know their background forces and tendencies?"
"What the ancestor said is that there are other hidden secrets in this?" Hearing this, the little round-faced man also accepted the advice and walked to the big map, but he still looked a little unclear, so: "Could it be that, that person The young master of Jizawa Domain, what he gave us is actually completely untrue?"
"No, no, the information she provided needs to be trusted by the office; at least there will be no problem in a short period of time." Jiang Tian shook his head slightly and said: "But just because of what she provided, there is no problem. This highlights the big problem on the other side.”
You should know that Jiang Tian rarely interfered with Xingtai's specific military strategy and tactical arrangements except for cooperation when he needed to take action. Because these battle formations in the cold weapon era were not what he was good at, he simply left them to more professional people.
But from another perspective, as a modern person who has been baptized by modern logic and materialism, he will undoubtedly be better than these ancients in terms of the overall overall situation and the vision of historical experience and lessons, as well as in various long-term depth and breadth. . So he saw something wrong.
"What does the ancestor mean?... There is a big problem among the Fuso sects occupying the southwest coast?" After all, the little round face has been with him for a long time, and he immediately reacted and drew inferences: "That's why they secretly secretly Make peace with the official office, or even seek to transfer the title?"
"That's right. Can you see their characteristics after reclassification?" Jiang Tian then used a charcoal pen to draw a set of diagrams similar to thought guidance on the other side of the wall: "Except for the one in Qinghai Town, Except for the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, they basically have the characteristics of being outside, remote, and scattered.”
"This also means that their own heritage is far less profound and lasting than those of the direct vassal masters or the branch families of the great vassal?" The little round face also thought a little: "This also means that they, Are you increasingly relying on and counting on subsequent supply and maintenance from the sea?"
"Therefore, once Jinhaijing, one of the two major import ports, changed hands." Jiang Tian continued to draw several thick and obvious supply routes at Jinhaijing's location. "Their options and buffers they have left become extremely limited."
"Either they gathered under that general of the West Route, Tachibana Zhuliang, and with the cooperation of the commander-in-chief of the Fuso Navy, Gao Shitai, to attack with all their strength to recapture Jin Haijing?" The little round-faced person deduced with his eyebrows: "Either, you just have to find a way to live where you are..."
"Actually, I have an even worse guess based on the evil of human nature:" Jiang Tian shook his head again and said, "Don't you think that these Fuso clans on the southwest coast have gathered too much? It's like they were deliberately gathered together. It's like transferring it here and letting it diminish on its own."
"So in the short term, these vassals will not have any disputes, but if they try to attack Jinhaijing and fail, it will be hard to say." Jiang Tian continued to deduce: "It would be fine if they severely damage the Jinhaijing city. . If you are slightly frustrated and retreat, you will be in trouble."
"If these Fuso clans are treated as abandoned by the general government and kill each other, wouldn't it also be beneficial to the government?" After hearing this, the little round-faced man suddenly thought about it and couldn't help but change his face and said: "No, if these are The Fuso clan has begun to kill each other, so how can the people live in peace after the fall!"
"Do you understand now?" Jiang Tian nodded. At this moment, he remembered the bones found in the IS underground bunker. "The so-called man-eating with beasts is nothing more than this; never underestimate your enemy's madness and despicable behavior in a desperate struggle."
"Ancestor's will is naturally my decision." A look of determination suddenly appeared on the little round face: "At this point, if I still demand perfection and stability, wouldn't I be living up to my ancestor's teachings? I will also be living up to my original oath. Your original intention to pity people for time and earn a way to survive?"
"This is probably a test that the young master of Ji Ze Fan secretly handed over for this purpose? Let's see if you, the princess, are worthy of her plots and plans." Jiang Tian said softly. He shook his head and said, "However, it also revealed her thoughts and trump cards."
"It seems that the Ji Ze Fan behind this young master is not as happy as she said? Or maybe it is as important as in the past in Fuso Fan..." The little round face also recalled: "That's why she He does not hesitate to sacrifice himself to the enemy, and deliberately seeks to gain access to me."
"So, Xiao Yuan, this is also an opportunity." Jiang Tian said this, but he gave her a meaningful look: "If the opportunity is right, you can give her a suitable name and reason and take her away! Anyway, In the future, you will also choose a good lady and a noble girl to serve as your escort."
"Old...Old...Ancestor..." However, the little round-faced face turned red when he heard this, as if smoke was about to evaporate from the top of his head, "I...I, actually, it's not..., That's just...something that was done by someone who was possessed by their mind...it can't be taken seriously."
"I know, but I am also serious." Jiang Tian couldn't help but smile secretly: "Because, I found traces of luck in her; if given the chance, she might be able to achieve great things; Therefore, if it cannot be used by you, then you have no choice but to get rid of it quickly."
"Old Ancestor... I understand. Since it is your instruction, Man'er will do his best." After hearing this, the little round face slowly calmed down and smiled with awareness: "Man'er is determined. If you pledge your life to the country, what do these promises of defamation and dirty tricks mean?"
The next day, Jiang Tian once again appeared in front of the assembled army and held a hasty and enthusiastic Master Ceremony for them. Later, General Ye Jing was left behind as Jin Haijing, responsible for supervising the rear grain and fodder and training the local elite as the garrison and capture army. The remaining 30,000 main troops marched westward.
It only took one day to penetrate the neighboring counties of Hedong and Nanhai, and killed more than 2,000 Fusang bandits. After hearing the news, local scholars and people rushed to join him. Therefore, officials and local volunteers were quickly appointed and trained in the cities and towns wherever they passed to restore nominal order.
On the second day after entering Wuzhou, they marched with great morale at the gates of Shengping County and defeated the 4,000 allied forces of the three families who hadtily faced the city behind the city, killing half of them in the formation. As a result, the local bandits affiliated with the bandits in the city rebelled, killing the imprisoned leader Fusang and the head of the family named Hao, and then opened the door and offered their heads to surrender.
Therefore, on the third day, the Haidong Army/Xingtai Army, which briefly divided its forces again, attacked and defeated the five counties of Fenwu, Baocheng, Lingyan, Lingcheng, and Pannan in Wuzhou. Fuso clan soldiers. There were more than 20 battles, big and small, and more than 5,000 were captured.
On the fourth day, the troops from all walks of life who had completed the pursuit and killing of the remnants of the enemy had gathered at the foot of Qiu Shan City, the capital of Wuzhou. However, they did not rush to attack Qiu Shan City, which had a limited garrison. Instead, they set up an ambush on the spot to besiege the city and call for reinforcements, such as There is "divine help" to defeat the enemies coming to help from seven directions.
When a total of seven reinforcements/vassals and more than twenty flags, horse flags and pointing objects with surnames were piled up at the foot of Akiyama City, the morale of the Fuso army left behind in the city also suffered a big collapse. In the end, only a few bannermen desperately escorted them, and the Tachibana family, as the general of the West Road, personally participated in the breakout.
As for the 4,000 Fusang troops and 2,000 Baekje puppet soldiers in the city, they were almost immune to the riots that broke out in the city since ancient times. Seven or eighty-eight of them were killed in the blink of an eye. So much so that in the end, only eight or nine hundred people could be pulled out and beheaded as a public display (blood sacrifice).
However, the sudden appearance of Tachibana's personal scroll outside Akiyama City was just a bait that was deliberately let go. Soon, under the guidance of the remnants of the enemy who had escaped along the way, the rejoined Taitai Army almost stopped to repair, and then drove straight down the counties of Jincheng, Wu'an, Wuling, and Xucheng again.
The Fuso Army scattered in the local area had almost no time to gather, and was dispersed, broken through, and defeated; and then fell into the search and killing of various local volunteers who were quickly gathered. For this reason, Xingtai even offered a reward of 50 qian/ten pounds of brown rice for the head.
From this, another episode occurred; among the captives captured locally, in addition to Fuso soldiers, there were even tens of thousands of Fuso civilians and several times that number of old and weak relatives. Although there were voices in the army who wanted to kill them all to vent their anger and revenge.
However, this time, Xingtai relied on Jiang Tian's authority as the True Ancestor Immortal; thus, in the name of spare "sacrifice", local volunteers sent Dao Jin Haijing in batches. By this time, except for some coastal islands and promontories, almost all of Wuzhou had been restored.
In the Nanyuan capital of Quanzhou, General Ju Zhuliang of the Fuso West Road was shocked to hear that the war situation was corrupt. Only then was he able to react and ordered and summoned other Fuso armies located on the boundary between Quanzhou and Jiangzhou; he made a move. The deputy will soon join forces to go south for a battle;
However, at the same time, many envoys from the Fuso Clan secretly arrived at the Kaitong Army's headquarters in Akiyama Castle. However, they could not help but miss the mark and were quickly detained. Because at this time, a relatively intact and capable group of troops had already pounced on Qinghai Town to the southwest.
This is also the largest station of the Fuso Navy.
