Become a feudal king from today - #899 - Chapter 913 The overall situation

“Hojo Kawakei and Ono Town are going down the west coast, please let me go to stop them!” When Watanabe was deploying troops, one stood up.

It was Haruno Yamada, the deputy general on the Watanabe case.

“This battle is a decisive battle between our southern lord and the four northern vassals. I am willing to sacrifice my life for the supreme cause of the general!” Yamada Haruno’s eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes, and his right hand was firmly pressed on the Japanese sword.

The failure of the Battle of Goryeo caused him to be ridiculed by other generals.

It was Watanabe’s trust that allowed him to retain the position of deputy general.

In response, he was willing to fight to the death for the Watanabe case.

At the same time, the intelligence they collected from all aspects showed.

This was a joint encirclement and suppression by the soldiers and horses of the King of Yan and the four northern vassals.

Whether it was for the case of their General Watanabe or for his own hatred, he would not allow King Yan’s plan to succeed.

“Go ahead, I’ll give you 200,000 troops and bring back the heads of Hojo Kawakei and Ono Town.” Watanabe said coldly.

He directly controlled 200,000 elite soldiers, and the southern lords also gathered 200,000 troops.

Their available troops amounted to four hundred thousand.

However, this should not be the original strength of their Southern Faction at all.

In the past, they could even gather an army of millions.

However, the continued harassment of the south by King Yan’s soldiers and horses during this period cut off their trade, and their farming was also seriously affected.

Many people in Japan could not bear the war and fled to the northern vassal, which greatly reduced their strength.

But even so, he still had the confidence to defeat the Northern Faction.

This is the victor’s scornful term for the loser.

Back then, he was able to unify the entire Japan with just the Watanabe family.

A wounded lion is not afraid of a herd of goats!

“Yes, General!” Yamada Haruno bowed deeply.

After that, Watanabe assigned tasks to each general.

Finally, he stood up and shouted with all his strength: “King Yan and the losers they support want to destroy us. We must use our own strength to tell them that this is wishful thinking.”

After a pause, he cheered up the generals, “As you all know, the warships from Sam’s Kingdom have arrived, the Westerners are back, and Britain must be dealing with King Yan now. They will soon launch a war against King Yan and bring Yan down.” The king broke the bones and spread the ashes.”

“And this is a battlefield in this war. As long as we hold on, victory will belong to us. In the future, whether it is Goryeo, Dasong, or other Eastern Kingdoms, they will all crawl at our feet.”

“Think of this supreme glory! For this supreme glory, even if the Japanese jade is broken, I will not hesitate!”

After saying the last word, Watanabe’s chest rose and fell violently.

“Onboard! Onboard…” The generals were inspired by the Watanabe case and shouted repeatedly, and their morale was high.

“Let’s go to the battlefield and let our enemies tremble!” Watanabe looked at the generals who were loyal to him and felt that his ambition to unify Japan was resurrected.

This time, he not only wants to unify Japan, but also the Eastern Continent.

After receiving the order, the generals turned and left.

In the afternoon of that day, Watanabe Case personally led an army of 200,000 people from the East Road to Baihe City.

The army marched along the road in the valley plain. The soldiers in front held the long flag unique to Japan and formed a long dragon.

And the Western Army under the command of Yamada Haruno set off from Fukuoka and headed north, preparing to fight Hojo Kawakei and Ono Town at Takeda Castle.

…

at the same time.

After a short period of preparation, 20,000 marines stationed on Wufeng Island, under the leadership of Pan Chang, boarded the troop transport ship.

The troopships were towed by steamships heading north.

In order to protect the safety of the troop transport, Gong Ying personally led the fleet escort.

The direction they were heading was towards Edo.

This time the battle plan was drawn up by them personally, and the four northern vassals were only responsible for its execution.

After analysis, he and Pan Chang believed that the Hojo family and the Ono family could be responsible for the road alone.

As for why they are put in charge of the west road instead of the east road, the reason is also very simple.

The Edo Castle area is the largest plain in Japan.

Watanabe Case will definitely focus on defending here.

Although the Hojo family and the Ono family are strong, they may not be able to defeat the Watanabe case.

In this way, the war can easily become a protracted war.

And this is not what King Yan wants.

Therefore, it is better to let them be responsible for the west road alone.

Their marines will no longer provide support to the west route, but will fully support the Oda family and the Mori family on the east route.

Let the two of them head-on contain the army of the Watanabe case, and they look for opportunities to launch a surprise attack.

“It’s finally over.” On the flagship of the fleet, Gong Ying looked towards Edo and seemed to be relieved.

Pan Chang smiled and said, “You can’t wait to fight against the Western Turks’ fleet, right?”

“Hahaha, you still understand me? Speaking of which, don’t you want to?” Gong Ying laughed, “In fact, in the final analysis, His Highness only cared about the lives of the soldiers and spared time to cultivate the four northern vassals, so that the Watanabe Case could survive Until now, why does Japan need a single fleet and 20,000 marines to defend it? “

“This is the character of our Highness. Sometimes we are taken too good care of by him.” Pan Chang smiled bitterly, “But we are not afraid of death. It is said that the Westerners are coming menacingly. Let us risk our lives to protect His Highness this time. “

After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled.

After a day and a half of sailing, the fleet arrived at the sea outside Jiangjiang.

Gong Ying ordered the fleet to anchor far away from the port, so that people on the shore could not observe the fleet’s position.

At the same time, a warship was sent to continue north to contact Dong An.

This time, Dong An was also among the coalition forces of the Oda and Maori families.

Another day and a half later, the battleship left and returned, bringing back the current battlefield situation.

“General, our Director Dong An has made contact. The coalition forces are currently in White River City. Watanabe personally led 200,000 troops to garrison in White River City to resist the coalition forces moving south.” The warship responsible for the investigation reported back.

Upon hearing this, Gong Ying immediately spread the map of Japan on the table.

“Shirakawa City is located in the valley plain north of Edo. It is the only way to go south. This is similar to what we calculated.” Gong Ying said.

“In this case, we will land directly in Edo, take the Watanabe case’s retreat, block it in the valley, attack from both sides, and eliminate it.” Pan Chang said seriously.

Gong Ying nodded, “That’s it, finish it early and let’s go meet the Westerners.”

“Hehe, the Watanabe case considers a Western native to be his father. Just the arrival of a battleship from the Sam Kingdom made him hard. This time we not only have to deal with him, but also his wild father.” Pan Chang sneered. A sound.

As Gong Ying said, it’s not that the Marines can’t deal with the Watanabe case.

King Yan just didn’t want them to go into the ravine and die in vain.

Now the four northern vassals have taken their place in the ravines and cleared them out.

It was enough for them to defeat the main force of the Watanabe case.
