The queue was too long, and by the time the news reached Matsushita Yang's ears, more than half an hour had passed.
"Are you sure it's the Starfall Legion?"
"Go back to the general. If my subordinates dare to use their heads as a guarantee, the enemy must be the Starfall Legion."
"Who led the team?" Matsushita Yang asked quickly.
"this……"
The soldier who reported back looked a little ashamed and his voice was squeaky.
"Back to General, it was too dark at that time, and the enemy came too quickly. The brothers were in a mess, so... no one could see clearly."
Before Matsushita Yang could say anything, Kamikawa stood up with a dark face.
"If you don't see the command flag clearly, you can always estimate how many people there are on the other side, right? Don't tell me, you can't do this!"
Xiaobing quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Return to the general, there are about two hundred cavalry on the other side."
Finally, he changed to a more affirmative tone.
"Definitely no more than three hundred."
Otherwise, with their fighting power, they could simply crush them all the way from west to east, without taking a bite and running away.
Matsushita Yang nodded, not surprised but happy.
Kamikawa quickly came over to compliment with a smile.
"As expected by the general, there are Xingluo people nearby, but they are definitely not many. It seems that our return trip should not be dangerous."
There are less than 300 people. Even if the opponent is the Starfall Legion, being in front of 30,000 people is definitely not a terrible thing.
On the contrary, the other party has to be extremely vigilant.
Otherwise, if they fall into an ambush, 30,000 people can drown them all with just a drop of spittle.
Matsushita Yang shook his head with a stern face, but his eyes showed a little bit of relief.
"That's what I say, but it's always right to be cautious when traveling on a thousand-year-old ship. Let me pass on this message to all brothers to be more vigilant and beware of that small enemy."
"What just happened must never happen again."
Shangchuan stood up quickly and said, "I understand."
Matsushita Yang's order was quickly passed on.
After all, their own lives were at stake, and the opponent was the famous Starfall Legion. The Japanese pirate soldiers were finally more vigilant. At least they were no longer listless and absent-minded when rushing or resting.
Even under the scolding of the vanguard, the soldiers on the outermost perimeter raised their bows and raised their shields, hastily laying out warning and preventive measures.
As a result, once they were on guard, they were on guard until dawn, and everyone was exhausted physically and mentally.
However, that team seemed to have disappeared from the world and never appeared again.
Dry.
Some Japanese pirate soldiers were very happy.
Others were furious.
They pointed at the southern sky and cursed at the Starfall Legion. However, no matter how harsh the curse was, there was nothing they could do in the end.
At this time, Matsushita Yang had already arrived at the place where Xiao Yong led a sneak attack yesterday.
He raised his hand to cover the morning sun and looked to the southeast with an expressionless face.
That's the direction where the horse's hoof prints disappeared.
“How is South Shore doing now?”
"this……"
Including Shangchuan, all the military advisors and guards looked at each other, and no one answered.
When they arrived at Tazigou, they stayed in the village.
Even the scouts sent out would wander around within a radius of ten or twenty miles, often wandering around and then disappearing again. It was not known whether the person was dead or a deserter.
In addition, it is a bit far away from the south coast, so no one knows the exact situation there.
"General, it has been so many days. The fire on the south bank must have been extinguished or burned out. General Ukawa probably led the fleet to protect the three food islands again."
food?
Hearing these two words, Matsushita Yang's chest suddenly felt tight.
He looked around quickly.
The surrounding crop fields can no longer be considered as crop fields. As long as anything that can be accessed is not visible, even the accompanying weeds above have been trampled to pieces and are half dead.
These offal...
Matsushita Yang felt dizzy for a while, and secretly cursed the Starfall Legion in his stomach.
It's really well done.
We don't plan to leave any food to them.
The other military advisors didn't know what the general was thinking, so they still looked towards the south.
"To the south..." someone hesitated, "In these years, the navy's ships have either been fighting or transporting people back and forth between the mainland and Baekje. They have hardly been repaired, and many of them have been severely damaged."
"The shipbuilding base on the south coast is so important. Without it, it is unclear whether we will have ships that can go out to sea in the future."
"So my subordinates feel that even if the fire is extinguished, General Ukawa will still have many people and ships left to clean up the mess or try to repair it."
"That's right." Others nodded.
"General," Kamikawa hurriedly came to Matsushita Yang's side, "Look in this direction, the two hundred or so Xingluo dogs bit us last night, and they may have gone straight to the south bank base for a sneak attack."
Matsushita Yang was even more depressed, and in the end he could only sigh.
"This is the cavalry."
Even if they knew that the enemy was going to attack the shipbuilding base, but they didn't have any war horses, they could only stand here and make sarcastic remarks, but nothing could stop them.
As soon as these words were spoken, all the military strategists looked up at the distant south and then looked down at their muddy bodies, and they all closed their mouths in melancholy.
The team dragged their feet and walked forward for another half day.
It was noon, the sun was high, and the weather was like a fire.
The Japanese pirate soldiers were so hungry that they couldn't move at all.
At this time, groups of people on the left and right were huddled in the shade to enjoy the cool air, and many people were even clamoring for something to eat.
No matter how much the vanguard shouted and drove them away, they were unwilling to get up.
"That's all."
D.
Furthermore, the morale of the team was low. If they were to be driven away by force, the team would be completely dispersed before they even reached the Hun River.
Moreover, the heat in Song Shang Yang made my heart feel restless and dry.
He ordered the man to run to a small hill and look around, and found that there were no enemies, so he simply hid and took advantage of the cool weather.
As soon as they hid, they hid until the sun set, and then the team started crying and pulling away.
Shortly after nightfall, there was another commotion ahead.
"What happened again?" Matsushita Yang was so angry that he wanted to kill someone.
The news came through after a while,
The Starfall army is here again.
Just like last time, they took a heavy bite, killed and injured nearly a thousand people, and then ran away again.

"A bunch of losers." Yo Matsushita couldn't bear it anymore, "They're doing whatever they want to eat. Didn't I tell you to be on your guard?"
"General," Shangchuan realized something was wrong and hurried over to calm the atmosphere, "The stars come and go like the wind. We are marching here, so it is really difficult to guard against it. No wonder brothers."
"Where are the scouts and where are the spies?" Matsushita Yang was still furious, "With so many war horses, can't they find any traces?"
Report.
While he was cursing, a scout suddenly appeared in embarrassment.
"General, half an hour ago, the Renzi flag was found on the hillside twenty miles ahead to the right."
What?
Matsushita Yang was so energetic that he didn't care about any sneak attacks and was immediately attracted to it.
"Ren Ziqi, isn't that Prince Ning of the Yunchui Empire?"
"Did you read that correctly?"
"Back to General, absolutely not." The little scout spent a long time before clumsily drawing the word "Ren" on the paper. "My subordinates can see clearly that this is the word embroidered on the opponent's command flag.
"
"That's great." Matsushita Yang was overjoyed, "It's really hard to find anything even if you try hard to find it. It takes no effort at all to get it."
"How many guards are there around King Ning?" he asked.
"Back to the general, I estimate there are more than 200, but definitely less than 300 cavalry." The little scout raised his hand and pointed, "But they are preparing to go south."
"It turns out they were the ones who made the sneak attack." Matsushita Yang was even more stunned.
No wonder the opponent's sneak attack was so smooth.
It turned out to be Prince Ning's elite guard.
He glanced at the map and gave the order decisively.
"Everyone has it. Give up and return to the muddy water and catch up."
"General," Kamikawa said, his heart was full of fire at this moment, but he was still reasonable, "do you want to send someone back to inform General Kutou first?"
Then set a trap in detail so that King Ning has nowhere to escape.
well.
Matsushita Yang felt annoyed in his heart.
Yesterday's horse should have been kept, because now there is an emergency and the news cannot be sent back.
"Immediately fire the cloud-penetrating arrows and send someone to run back to report. Be quick!"
"clear."
Not long after, hoo hoo hoo.
Three brilliant cloud-piercing arrows exploded high in the sky.
