Just as Bai Qi expected, after receiving the news about Huo Qubing's movements, Mao Liyuan had no choice but to send troops to stop him.
However, the manpower sent by Mao Liyuan was not very powerful. Not only did they not stop Huo Qubing, but the men he sent were ambushed by Huo Qubing, causing heavy losses. In addition to losing troops and generals, they did not play any role at all. any effect.
In fact, the person sent by Mao Liyuan to stop Huo Qubing was not a simple figure, but his second son Yoshikawa Yuanjing, who was a quite famous warrior in the Mao Li family.
Yoshikawa Yuanjing has a strong and solemn nature and is extremely brave. His nickname "Oni Yoshikawa" is even more frightening. He is one of the few Japanese military generals whose strength can reach the peerless level.
Yoshikawa Motoharu had a total of seventy-six battles in his life, with a record of sixty-four wins and twelve deadlocks. He was a well-known undefeated warrior. In addition, he wrote forty volumes of "Taiping Ji" in the army during the campaign against the Nizi family, which is the "Yoshikawa version" of "Taiping Ji" that has been handed down to this day. He was commented by later generations as a famous general with both wisdom and courage.
It's a pity that such a famous general is still far from enough under the configuration of Huo Qubing, Zhang Liao, and Xu Huang.
The famous Japanese general who had never experienced a defeat before was not only defeated at the hands of Huo Qubing, Zhang Liao, and Xu Huang, but he himself was also involved in this battle. In the end, he was ambushed and could not retreat in time. In this situation, he was killed by Xu Huang forcefully.
Of course, it was impossible for Mao Liyuan to know about this matter, because just before Huo Qubing ambushed the troops he sent out, he himself had already taken the lead.
I can't say it, but this is also a good thing for Mouri Yuan, at least he avoids the white-haired man giving away the black-haired man. Because not long after he came to an end, his sons also came to the end of their lives one after another.
When Bai Qi put away the news that Maoli Yuan's troops had been dispersed, he decisively launched a fierce attack at this time. In just three days, 10,000 troops were lost and the city was finally broken.
Of course, although they lost 10,000 soldiers, the losses were not their own soldiers and horses, but the group of prisoners sent back by Huo Qubing.
Anyway, these are not their own people, so they don't need to use them in vain. Even if there are too many casualties in this process, they will not feel any distress.
After Bai Qi organized them as quickly as possible, he turned these people into death squads. Only if these people conquer the city can they survive. Before the city is conquered, even if they die in battle until only one person is left, they will not be allowed to retreat.
Moreover, Bai Qi executed more than a thousand disobedient prisoners on the spot to scare other prisoners. During the siege of the city, Bai Qi showed no mercy at all. As long as one person retreated, all ten people they were in would be killed, and all of them would be caught on the spot by the supervising team who had been watching them from behind. execution.
After being forced to sit down two or three times, these Japanese learned their lesson. If they really find that any of their companions wants to be timid and retreats, in order not to be joined together, they will kill their companion who is timid to fight!
As a result, under the high-intensity attack, this battle seemed extremely cruel from the beginning. After three days of fierce battle, Mao Liyuan was finally unable to do anything, and Bai Qi forcibly broke through the city.
Motonori himself, as well as generals such as Anato Takaie, Yoshimi Masayori, Amano Takanashi, Katsura Motosumi, Kodama Yutada, etc., were all ordered to be hanged on the city wall by Bai Qi at Chen Ping's suggestion. Their corpses were hung high on the city wall to warn other Japanese of the consequences of resistance.
As soon as Mouri Yuan died, many places in Ishimi's country had given up resistance. Although many Japanese troops did not surrender to the Jin army, they also abandoned the city and fled to other places. Some of them fled to other Mouri clans. The territory they controlled retreated, and some of them simply wanted to escape to the territories of other daimyo.
Of course, every country or nation has soft bones but also hard bones. There are people who run away in a hurry and people who resist until death.
Akagawa Motoyasu and Awaya Motachika are two of the most confidant generals under Motonori Mouri. Together with Katsura Motoyasu, Kuniji Motosho, and Kodama Yoshitada, they are also known as the Five Motori Chiefs. The Omori Castle where they are stationed is one. An example of carrying yourself to death.
Moreover, in order to resist the Jin army, Akagawa Motoyasu and Awaya Motochin organized all the people in the city, regardless of gender, old and young, into the army. Those over 14 years old must participate in the battle, regardless of gender, while those under 14 years old Responsible for helping to move various materials.
Such intensity of resistance was second to none among the entire Japanese nation until the end of the war, let alone the forces of Mouri Yuanju.
Therefore, Wang Zhongsi, who was sent to attack this city, had already received an order from Bai Qi that day after he forcefully broke the city, ordering him to completely kill the city without leaving any chickens or dogs behind. This happened later. There are only a few words mentioned in the history books as the Ten Days of Omori, which means that the massacre lasted for ten days before ending.
The hanging of Maori Yuan was to act as a deterrent, and a killing was also meant to act as a deterrent, to tell those Japanese people the consequences of resistance.
At the same time, Huo Qubing also rushed into Awu County with light cavalry, and used the method of false defeat to lure the enemy to attack, drawing out most of the troops in the city, and successfully breached the city.
But just thinking about it is difficult for anything to exist alone, and they are all related to each other. The successive victories of Bai Qi and Huo Qubing also affected the battle situation of Liu Beijun.
Kobayakawa Takakage was already struggling to support Guan Yu, but when the news came that Mouri Yuan died in the battle, the place became completely panicked, and Guan Yu also successfully seized the opportunity, and defeated Kobayakawa Takakage in the first battle. The main force laid the foundation for the next two countries that they were responsible for.
After these successive defeats, it can be said that the Maori lineage has completely come to an end in Japan. Since then, the name of Japan has once again lost one name.
The main figures in the Maori lineage have basically been lost at this time. There is no one who can hold the situation in check. It can even be said that they have been torn apart, and they can no longer form any effective resistance.
The remaining territories that have not yet been captured will hardly cause any trouble to Bai Qi or Guan Yu, and they will just wait for them to send troops to take over.
