Become a feudal king from today

Chapter 671 Before the Decisive Battle

"Boom boom boom..."

Taro Aida was just wondering, when the rumble of cannons came from the sea. ReadМ

The Yanzhou fleet launched an attack on their warships.

"How many warships do they have in total?" Taro Aida asked, grabbing the Japanese soldier who was delivering the message.

He still had a glimmer of luck.

If these were just a few warships that happened to be passing by, they might still have a chance to break through.

The Japanese soldier said: "There are thirty-two ships in total."

"Thirty-two ships!" Aida Taro was shocked.

Obviously, this fleet came specifically for them.

At the beginning, King Yan's twelve warships caused a hundred warships of the Wufeng pirates to flee in all directions.

This time, there was no way that the thirty-two Yanzhou warships could win with just his one hundred and twenty warships.

Besides, they were stuck in the port.

There was a wolf in front of him and a tiger behind him. He frowned and Taro Aida finally made a decision.

Let all the Japanese crew members disembark and retreat southward with the people in the merchant house, leaving only Da Song and the Korean pirates to continue fighting.

For him, this situation meant that the Japanese soldiers fighting against the Yanzhou fleet at sea would die in vain, and they would be captured by the Yanzhou army if they stayed in Qingcheng.

At the moment, they belong to the alliance, and as long as they go south, they are safe.

Having made up his mind, he immediately set off with the Japanese people in the business hall.

When he came to the south gate, he climbed onto the city wall and looked at the sea from a distance.

On the sea not far from the port, thirty-two Yanzhou warships were constantly emitting flames, while thick smoke was rising from the Eastern Ying warships at the dock.

After receiving his order, the Japanese soldiers fled from the warship and came in his direction.

"King Yan, we in Japan will remember this account. We will put your head on your neck for the time being. One day, we people in Japan will come to get it."

After that, he headed south without looking back.

On the sea.

Zhou Yi soon discovered a surprising scene at the port.

The Wufeng pirates did not choose to fight them, but fled off the ship one after another and headed south.

All the warships parked at the dock became empty ships.

How is this going? Zhou Yi frowned.

They can understand the Wufeng pirates' escape, because the outcome of this war is destined.

But why did this group of pirates not flee to Qingcheng, but to the south?

In just half an hour, he had the answer.

An army appeared at Qingcheng Pier. Seeing this army, he immediately ordered the bombardment to stop.

Because the soldiers of this army wear Yanzhou's new army uniforms.

There is no doubt that they are the royal troops attacking Qi.

Feeling happy, he immediately ordered the warship to sail to the dock.

Since the pier was full of burning Wufeng pirate warships, which were far away, they could only put down the boat and row the famous boat to the pier.

"Lu Chang." Zhou Yi said with a smile as he boarded the dock.

This army was led by Lu Chang.

"Hahaha, what a coincidence. When I heard the sound of cannons on the sea, I knew it must be you, so I speeded up the march. It's a pity that it was a step too late. These Japanese brats ran away completely." Lu Chang felt a little regretful.

"They all fled south." Zhou Yi pointed to the direction in which the Japanese people fled, "You are making rapid progress." "

When Lu Chang heard this, he immediately ordered his cavalry to pursue him.

Then he smiled and said, "It's not that our progress is fast, but that Qi has given up these unimportant cities and wants to fight a decisive battle with us."

Immediately, he said to Zhou Yi: "Why are you here?"

Zhou Yi then told Lu Chang about his plan to attack the Japanese navy.

The Wufeng pirates fled without a fight and left behind a large number of warships, which meant that all their sneak attack plans were successful.

Now, the ocean will truly belong to their Yanzhou Navy.

At the same time, what excited him was that Lu Chang had occupied Qingcheng, which would become their first supply point heading south.

When Lu Chang heard this, his eyes suddenly widened.

He raised his fist and said: "Great, these little brats from Japan still want to stir up civil strife in Dasong. They should suffer a little."

The two talked for a while.

Zhou Yi asked Lu Chang to help them take care of the Japanese warships on the dock.

Naturally, the navy does not like these warships, but it would be a waste to just throw them away. It is better to drag them back to the trading company for use.

Then, he entrusted Lu Chang to send cavalry to send the naval battle report to Dongping City, while he led the fleet back to Jinghai Pier.

Within two days, his battle report was in the hands of Zhao Xu.

At this time, Zhao Xu was discussing the decisive battle with Chang Wei.

The troops of the Xie family had stationed themselves in Lucheng a few days ago, and the armies of Nanliang and Beidi were also coming to Qizhou with great momentum.

"The Japanese don't have to worry. Zhou Yi's sneak attack was successful. The warships at Wufeng Haikou were also destroyed near Qingcheng. They can never transport the Japanese army to Qizhou." After reading Zhou Yi's battle report, Zhao Xu said to Chang Wei said.

Chang Wei breathed a sigh of relief, "Japan's tentacles extending into Dasong have been cut off, so the Yan Alliance is missing a corner, and the only remaining extraterritorial force is Beidi."

Then, he and Zhao Xu looked at each other, and they both said at the same time: "Ma Han!"

Zhao Xu smiled and said: "Yes, it's time for Ma Han to take action. Since he, Beidi, is determined to join the alliance, I will make him pay the price, causing them to lose his wife and lose their troops."

Immediately, he opened Lu Chang's battle report. In the battle report, Lu Chang mentioned the occupation of Qingcheng.

The location of Qingcheng in Qizhou is the contemporary Qingdao, a rare deep-water port.

Otherwise, the Japanese would not take a fancy to Qingcheng.

But now, Qingcheng has fallen into his hands. From now on, Japanese people should no longer want to get involved in this place.

After resolving the threat from the sea, Zhao Xu focused his energy on the next decisive battle.

In more than ten days at most, Nanliang soldiers and horses will arrive in Lucheng. By then, Qizhou will have gathered a million troops to defeat Yan.

In order to deal with the Yan coalition forces, he was not idle during this period. Instead, he and Chang Wei only ordered the royal soldiers to dig trenches in front of the county city.

There are more than ten such trenches in front of each county town.

One of its purposes is to slow down the opponent's soldiers' attack, and the other is to provide convenient terrain for soldiers to throw grenades before the war begins.

Of course, the Yan coalition forces may not be stupid enough to attack the city defended by the royal family, but they have to do these defensive methods.

After all, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and they must be careful.

After chatting with Chang Wei about matters before the decisive battle, he sent people to Sizhou and brought his order to attack Yongzhou in Qinzhou to Ma Han.

Now that the soldiers and horses of Nanliang and Beidi have been dispatched, the time has come for Ma Han to attack the two states.

If Nanliang retreats and supports the two states, he will take the opportunity to destroy the troops of Qi and Xie.

If they don't care, the 100,000 troops under the command of Ma Han can easily capture the two states and restore the territory of Dasong.
