Chapter 1407 Attack on Japan (seven)

PreviousBack to directoryNext
The deep-water port is convenient, and ships of all sizes can dock.

With ***'s guidance, Tang Jun accurately found the life gate of Zhuzi Island.

Because there were many Japanese captured last year, most of them were sent to work in the Central Plains, and the rest were those with different statuses or more flexible minds.

When the Tang army went on an expedition to Japan, almost all of these people came with the army. From battalion lieutenants to generals, each leading officer was accompanied by a few, and some of them were from the Fei Kingdom.

Otherwise, people in the Central Plains would hate *** so much, because these people are indeed hateful.

But that's the way it is, Tang Jun likes it very much now.

The thinking of the Japanese was different from that of the Central Plains people. After they became loyal to their masters, they were different from other Japanese. When attacking their own people, they seemed to be more active than the Tang army soldiers.

Striving for meritorious service and being able to stand out from others in the future, you must at least be able to show off your power in front of your own kind. This is a standard mentality of admiring one's strength, and it's very extreme. Dog belt understands this.

The Tang army landed without encountering any resistance, and all the Japanese on the beach had fled.

No matter how stupid or ignorant they are, they can still figure out whether they are one of their own or the enemy when they get closer.

It's just that this enemy is very unfamiliar to the fishermen of the Japanese country, and no one can recognize what the ghostly symbols on the waving flag say.

The Japanese islands, which had never been invaded and had always been in civil strife, were exposed to foreign enemies for the first time, and their defenses were completely lax.

.....................

The trumpet sound sounded from the warships of the Tang Army, melodious and low, with a bit of murderous intent. This was urging the warships in front to land quickly and not to let go of the escaping enemies.

A few small boats first docked on the beach, while the larger ships turned to the protruding port.

The Tang soldiers who landed first had not been on land for many days. When they jumped off the ship, they were swaying and unsteady, but they still quickly formed a team of ten.

After finding their leader, the fifty-man team was immediately formed, without encountering any stubborn resistance and no longer having to form a battalion-level combat unit.

They pulled out their swords, and under the leadership of the team leader, with weak legs, they rushed towards the Japanese settlement on the shore. There were many low wooden houses there, and their target was very clear.

At this time, this "big fishing village" of more than a hundred people was already in chaos. Many people had not seen the shadow of the enemy, but they were told that the enemy was coming.

It is not clear what kind of enemy it is. Some people thought it was Satsuma bandits coming. Many years ago, Feiguo was indeed invaded by Satsuma and several other major tribes in the south.

But many, many years have passed since then, and it has almost become a legend.

Ever since the northern tribes took refuge with the He clan, this kind of thing has never happened again.

In the chaos, some men picked up weapons, namely wooden sticks, bamboo guns, harpoons and the like and rushed to the seaside.

The fishermen of the Japanese country have always been tough, which was already reflected in the previous naval battle.

Almost all the fishermen along the coast of the Japanese country were either soldiers or good prospects for pirates. It was precisely because of this that the Japanese country continued to infringe its surrounding neighbors during its long historical period. In fact, it was mainly these fishermen who relied on them.

.....................

It's just that they didn't understand who their opponent was.

Once the Tang army took shape, it formed a war machine. Any unorganized resistance in front of them would be in vain.

A team of fifty people rushed ahead and met some Japanese armed with weapons outside the fishing village. Even though they were still stumbling a little, they rushed forward and chopped down the Japanese one by one without saying a word.

There was no nonsense. The military order they received was to capture the beachhead as soon as possible and those who resisted would die.

The eyes of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty gleamed when they saw the blood. The boring and difficult life at sea had almost driven them crazy, and they urgently needed to vent their anger with the blood of the enemy.

They rushed into the settlement like wild horses running wild. At this time, morality could no longer restrain them, but the mountain of military orders prevented them from wiping out all active life here.

There was no resistance anymore, and under the loud orders from the team leader, the team leaders led their people to search from house to house.

The cries of women and children kept ringing out, and men...if they looked wrong, they would be stabbed.

The following Tang troops quickly caught up, guarded the periphery of the village, and shot several Japanese who tried to escape.

Soon the village became quiet, and soldiers of the Tang Dynasty came in and out, throwing the things they searched for in one place, and the captured Japanese were also driven together.

At this time, the main force of the Tang army came ashore.

The army dispersed from the head of Xuan Beach like a stream. The vanguard troops only rested at the beach head for a while before pounced on several nearby villages.

By the evening of that day, all the army landed ashore, and everything within a radius of more than ten miles was under the control of the army. The grain and grass were also unloaded in the villages on the beach.

.....................

In the largest house in the village, the original owner had long disappeared. Wen Shihong, Xun Xiang and Pei Xingyan were gathered together.

The two landlubbers, Xun Xiang and Pei Xingyan, looked haggard. Life at sea was almost a nightmare for them. It was much better now than when they set out. At that time, they thought that after practicing in Donglai, they would be able to adapt to the sea.

itinerary.

They were absolutely wrong. The boat was still shaking on the sea, making them dizzy and drowsy all day long, but they couldn't fall asleep.

Now that they were finally down to earth, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Wen Shihong was much stronger than them. He looked at them and smiled and said: "Tomorrow we will all go our own way. If anything happens... I can't help. I can only wish the two generals a victory.

It's almost done."

Xun Xiang thumped his chest, "Brother Wen is not taking it easy either. Can we clean up the piers along the coast one by one?"

People from the north and the south still don't get along very well, and their words always feel a bit thorny.

Pei Xingyan was not so emotional, "I just got my reward, and I didn't get much. However, there are a lot of seafood stored in several villages on the seaside. They should be prepared for winter. If this continues, the army's food and grass will probably have to go to General Wen."

Take some time."

Xun Xiang cursed a poor man and looked at Shihong the scholar eagerly.

There are 20,000 troops, and the food and fodder that comes with the ship is enough for more than ten days. The three of them have been in battle for a long time and know what it means if the capture is not satisfactory.

This is still to blame for the previous naval battle. There were not many adult men left on the beach, which affected the harvest of the Japanese fishermen.

In addition, the Japanese nobles are too greedy and expropriate the lower class people, so the Japanese will have a hard time this winter.

Otherwise, Feitian and others would not discuss matters regarding winter this year, and it would be basically impossible for them to open warehouses and release grain like they did in the Central Plains...
