Everyone in Wudang behind looked surprised, but Patriarch Dongyun said strangely:
"In the past, Kublai Khan conquered Japan and captured the islands of Tsushima and Iki. Unfortunately, he had to stop the conquest because he encountered two consecutive sea storms. At that time, Japan only had the ability to protect itself and had no ability to attack. Only a few hundred years have passed now...how can the Central Plains Dynasty be in dire straits?"
Patriarch Dongyun lived in the Yuan Dynasty. The Mongolian soldiers were fierce, light in armor, good at riding horses, strong, willing to risk their lives, brave and free, and good at advancing and retreating. However, the reason why the attack on Japan failed was actually due to arrogance and rashness in attacking without knowing the opponent's geographical location and climate problems.
However, for the Yuan army, after destroying the Jin Dynasty, the Song Dynasty, Xixia and the Western Liao Dynasty, the whole world, after telling Diaoyu City to sit down and not stand up, there will be no single enemy. They are arrogant and arrogant. Everyone here is rubbish. As for the The reason for conquering others... did the Yuan Dynasty need it?
Roar in history and make the voice of Chu! I am a barbarian. I will hit you if I want to. Do I still have to find a reason?
The Song Dynasty also wanted to ask why you hit me when we were allies, but the Yuan Dynasty said that I would hit you, what can you do to me?
But in fact, a war without a reason will damage one's own morale and boost the morale of the other side, thereby affecting the outcome of the war to a certain extent. Therefore, the reason is still necessary, and it must be correct and in line with the laws of nature and humanity.
If you can just find a reason to fight, it is the same as having no reason. This is how the word "argument" was invented.
"Wars since ancient times have been nothing more than for land, wealth and population. In the Yuan Dynasty, there was a war against Japan in the past. Now that Japan has been unified, it uses Tsushima Island as a springboard to invade North Korea, and then uses North Korea as a springboard to plot against China... ..."
"Since the Battle of Baijiang in the Tang Dynasty, the sea has separated the three kingdoms. The friction and struggle between the three kingdoms have lasted for nearly a thousand years!"
Fox Dragon: "I don't know when it will end. Maybe the struggle will continue until..."
Until when, no one can be sure.
“In January, Japan still occupied the coastal cities of Korea and refused to return them. Toyotomi Hideyoshi was not willing to leave... He once again sent 150,000 troops across the sea to go to Korea, including 140,000 land troops and 7,000 navy troops. ....”
"In August, North Korea's Sacheon, Namhae, Gwangju, Hwangseok, Geumju, Gongju, and Seoul fell again..."
I say it fell again because it fell once before, was beaten back, and now is lost again.
"North Korea's navy has been completely wiped out in the Battle of Chicheonryang...and there is sad news..."
"The real person also knows about the appearance of those ghosts and gods. Before, Zhenren Zhang sent the incarnation of Yang Shen to suppress it, but he was blocked by the immortals of the same level and eliminated the incarnation of Yang Shen, so that Zhenren Zhang did not dare to rush to deal with it with his real body... "
Ji Xiang: "I know who it is."
Defense tower Xu Fu?
The pseudo-immortals have the bonus of their own country's divine power in their own country. During the Yuan Dynasty, Japan once called itself the "King of Gods". Although it did not meet the original requirements that Xu Fu wanted, the strength of the pseudo-immortals is unquestionable.
The entire southern part of North Korea has now become the realm of Japan, and Xu Fu's power can naturally operate freely within it. Zhang Tianshi became an immortal not long ago, how could he deal with the fake immortals who have been here for many years? Even if he is looked down upon by those alchemists now, he was still a giant in those days.
"How much more has it increased now?"
Japan has not long left the era of melee. Its soldiers are of high quality and have many elites. They are all soldiers who have fought in hundreds of battles, and they have the help of ghosts and gods.
As for the Ming Dynasty, it has reached the end of the dynasty. The Ming army has become a servant. It has strong combat power under a specific general, but once it is separated from the command of that general, it will become a mob.
However, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse after all. It was so collapsed at the end of the Qing Dynasty that it could still exchange a few punches with industrialized Japan. In the current era, everyone is in the feudal era, and the firearms of the Ming Dynasty are stronger than those of Japan in the current era. , without external power factors, although this battle will consume a lot of national power, it is still a sure win.
If more people are useful, Boss Cao has already dominated the world in the Battle of Chibi!
"The army sent by Toyotomi Hideyoshi before was the army of the Western Kingdom directly under him. Now according to the information of the Jinyiwei, the army of the Eastern Kingdom has also arrived in North Korea!"
Kinyiwei has spies in Japan, and they have sent back a lot of information before, but there is also some ridiculous false information, such as the fact that Toyotomi Hideyoshi died on the 2nd, but on the 15th he went out to eat and did sit-ups in the coffin. ...
The spies currently in Japan are maritime merchant Xu Yu and former Jin Yiwei, now staff officer Shi Shiyong under Liaodong Economic Strategy.
Hulong brought the news to Ji Xiang. After all, when they get to North Korea, the spies must find someone to contact them.
The Eastern Army was also dispatched. This was considered the second major force of Japan to participate in the battle. In order to weaken the military strength and funds of domestic daimyo, Toyotomi Hideyoshi dispatched a large number of Western troops into North Korea. It was a strategic purpose to attack the entire territory of North Korea and plot against the Ming Dynasty. part, but weakening the daimyo's control over the army to facilitate his own operations is the second most important goal.
However, Toyotomi Hideyoshi came to attack North Korea almost with the intention of winning, so the Western troops he used were all direct troops of his own forces. Once he succeeded in conquering North Korea, and even succeeded in defeating the Ming Dynasty, he would definitely defeat the Ming Dynasty. With such great momentum, the daimyo and generals of the Eastern Kingdom will be more surrendered to themselves. If the army of the Eastern Kingdom is used to attack North Korea, once the army of the Eastern Kingdom has outstanding military achievements, it will be a slap in the face to itself, and it will be difficult to weaken those daimyo. influence on the Western Army.
For various reasons, the Dongguo Army, which had never been taken out, arrived in North Korea again with the reinforcements of ghosts and gods.
The Eastern Kingdom's army numbered 160,000, and 120,000 were used to reinforce North Korea, and an additional 5,000 naval troops were added. Among them, Tokugawa Ieyasu, Date Masamune, Honda Tadakatsu, and Uesugi Kagekatsu were appointed as generals... ..
The total strength of the Japanese troops entrenched in southern Korea reached nearly 300,000!
Village war is not terrible, but the most terrible thing is when the village chiefs wake up and cooperate together.
"This is almost the entire country's elite. If you add those monsters and monsters, the total force will be nearly 400,000? After the first war, if they don't succeed, the ones left in their country will not be considered soldiers. It can only be said that they are soldiers. Just a farmer with a spear."
"The collapse of the country is right in front of us, do we still have to give it a fatal blow?"
Ji Xiang: "Then let me go to North Korea this time. Speaking of which, could it be that I am doing the work of transmitting information among the thousands of soldiers and ghosts? It would be better to assassinate Hideyoshi faster."
"Haha, the real person is joking. If it were so easy to bypass the Japanese Immortal and kill Hideyoshi directly... wouldn't this mean that Japan's national prestige is regarded as nothing? It is extremely difficult to defeat the cities within the scope of Japan's national prestige. Now The opponent's power is weird. They can't even recover southern Korea, so why talk about entering the Japanese archipelago?" Fox Dragon told Ji Xiang that this matter was difficult. Because of some things, the balance on his side was broken, and now he had to find an alternative.
"Relying on the power of the pseudo-immortal, I have no worries in my hometown, so I can give it a try?"
Ji Xiang laughed.
The damage to the Heavenly Master was unexpected. Ji Xiang inquired about the details of the matter and asked when Tianshi was injured. Hulong only said that there was something wrong with the alchemy last month and that he could just cultivate a little, but now it is a critical moment and he must find someone to rescue him.
Ji Xiang thought about it and already knew what was going on.
Last month, wasn't that...
The merger of the South Forbidden City and the North Forbidden City into the Forbidden Realm... It seems that the Celestial Master and the others have faced the way of heaven. Fortunately, the shadow of Emperor Jianwen mentioned that this matter happened because of him, so he must Take care.
Speaking of which, before Yingtian Mansion, because he used the true meaning of the three religions many times, he caused some disasters in the world of mortals. The suicide of the three corpse gods alone was no longer able to resolve them. Now they are facing disasters again, even though they have been prepared for it. , but the expedition to North Korea collided with the national prestige of other countries. This was the first time for a young girl to get on the sedan chair.
Speaking of which, our country's national prestige is not that effective even when dealing with local wild monsters.
How much strength is left in fighting foreign wild monsters?
"Give me a few days' grace, I still have some things I have to do."
Ji Xiang expressed to Hu Long that he wanted him to reply to Wanli and give him more time. The fifth and sixth days are always given. There are also big things here. It's not that he is disobeying the decree, but he is really afraid that those in the Forbidden City will appear in the south. Ghosts from the underworld.
The fox dragon was startled: "His Majesty said, please leave within five days..."
He changed his words: "However, since there are also ghosts from the underworld here, then this grace thing is also possible. Before coming here, His Majesty had already thought about similar things and made oral instructions. He was also afraid of those underworld ghosts. The ghost appears again."
After saying that, he took out a communication talisman, which surprised Ji Xiang.
Isn't this the messenger talisman of King Lu?
"In response to what happened in Tianfu, the Jinyi Guard God who has escaped from control has reported. This talisman was found near King Lu's old northern residence. We don't know how to make it yet. It is extremely precious. Please ask the real person to bring this talisman to you. Keep it and take it to North Korea."
Emperor Wanli didn't want to carry out micro-management personally. He didn't have that ability himself, but he had the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies!
What's the use of doing something like this, leaving the General Staff alone and having to go into battle and do a few tricks, moving the thunderbolt five meters to the left?
