Chapter 589: Three generals stand up and perform extraordinary feats
However, Uesugi Takata still used this precious time to escape to the sea, but Uesugi Takata didn't know that a more lively fireworks show was about to be staged. At this time, the fleet of the Han army Huang Zu had already fought with Santsuya Yezi and
Megumi Hayashihara's fleet has gathered, and fleet commander Huang Zu has ordered all battleships to mount giant flaming arrows on their crossbows and violently attack Kobe Port.
Speaking of giant flaming arrows, this is a new weapon developed by Zuo Aoran before Gan Ning went to sea. In the past, the navy used regular crossbows, which were fine for attacking enemy ships, but when used against targets such as shipyards and ports, their lethality was small.
A lot.
No matter how early giant crossbows were used, they could only be used against enemies in dense formations to achieve a better killing effect. A long time ago, many knowledgeable people in the military hoped to imitate the principle of incendiary bombs and create weapons that could be used for
Junu's giant flaming arrows, and now Zuo Aoran finally realized their wish and created a batch of giant flaming arrows!
However, with the current technological level of the Han Dynasty, it is very difficult to manufacture giant incendiary arrows in large quantities. This batch of giant incendiary arrows was also made by Zuo Aoran considering the needs of landing operations. The manufacturing cost was enough to make seven times the quantity.
of giant ordinary crossbow arrows.
Now Huang Zu has decided to use these giant incendiary arrows. Firstly, he will test the power of the navy's giant incendiary arrows. Secondly, he can also take the opportunity to carry out large-scale destruction of the Hojo and Yasuhiko armies. This opportunity cannot be missed, and it will never come back.
!
After confirming that all ships were loaded, Gan Ning issued an order to attack Kobe Port. As for whether there were Uesugi Kota's troops on the shore, it was not within the scope of Huang Zu's consideration at all. Today's situation has shown that the Uesugi family
His ambition is too big and difficult to control, so why not take the opportunity to kill all the elites of the Uesugi Army and support the more obedient and charming Queen Himiko!
First there was a sound that shocked the world, and then bursts of giant arrow rain poured from the sea onto the Kobe Port. The entire Kobe Port flames reflected the entire sky. Amidst the deafening sounds, those Yamazaki Kuni Yasuhiko,
The soldiers of both Hojo armies were burned like charcoal in shock, fear, fear, and bewilderment. The simple houses in Kobe Port were leveled in an instant, and the burning smell that permeated the entire sky made people unable to breathe.
, just want to vomit.
When the warships at sea poured tons of giant flaming arrows into the Port of Kobe, everything completely changed. At this time, the Japanese who filled the entire Port of Kobe, whether it was the Hojo Army, the Yasuhiko Army, or the Uesugi Army, became
Hitting the meat target of Huang Zu's troops in the Han Dynasty, the giant flaming arrows whizzed in group after group, leaving these Japanese with no place to hide and running around one after another. The originally neat attack formation began to fall apart, and the offensive suddenly
There was a pause.
The cavalry of the Hojo Army who were still attacking were knocked to the ground by the rampaging horses, and then fell down by heavy horse hooves. The infantry of the Anyan Army were burned to pieces in a daze, causing more people to fall into madness, everywhere.
Running around, he completely became the target of the giant flaming arrow.
But at this time, they had no chance. The constant buzzing sound on the sea was like the performance of the most spectacular battlefield symphony. Accompanying this earth-shattering music were countless meteors shining red in the sky. These meteors fell
When it reaches the ground, it will erupt with power that destroys everything, causing the gray sky to turn bright red. The huge air waves are churning up and down in Kobe Port with the power to destroy everything, leaving no room for anything!
Countless bodies fell down after being scorched, and the fire that reflected the red sky exuded the power of destruction. Under this attack, the Japanese completely lost their fighting spirit. At first, they ran for their lives one by one, pair by pair, and then a group of
One group after another, finally, the entire Japanese army could no longer bear this kind of destruction that was beyond human power, and the entire battle line finally collapsed.
Everyone just wants to escape from this terrible hell on earth as soon as possible and stay away from these terrifying giant flaming arrows. What victory? What glory? What punishment? They can't care less. Escape is the most important thing now!
After the sky finally turned white, there was not much intact land left in the entire Kobe Port, and the sound of the giant flaming arrows began to slowly become quieter. Finally, it was no longer heard, and only the thick smell of gunpowder smoke still echoed in the air.
Looking at the ruins in front of him, the feeble wails of the still-dead people, and the samurai who had just crawled out of the sea, Uesugi Takata's face finally showed a sad expression. After yesterday's battle, he was completely
It failed. The elite troops just formed by the Uesugi family were also destroyed with the attacks of the Hojo Army, Yasuhiko Army and the attack of the Han fleet. It was really tragic! However, what is worth celebrating is that I, Uesugi Takata, am still alive.
, as long as we are alive, our Uesugi family will still have a chance to make a comeback!
Wajima, Mt. Rokko outside Kobe Port, this majestic peak in front of you is surrounded by many forests and mountains. The cliff on one side is extremely steep, and many gullies formed by running water extend into the bottomless valley. If someone can climb up
At the top of the peak, you may see a different scene, which will live up to the mood of exploring the mountains.
What a pity! Huang Zu, the deputy commander of the navy under Marshal Zuo Aoran of the Han Dynasty, was not in such a good mood. When Huang Zu saw this mountain peak, the only thing he knew was that he was not too far away from the goal of this mission.
.
In the Battle of Kobe Port, 80% of the samurai who landed on the Uesugi Army were killed or injured, and almost the entire army was wiped out. If it were not for the devastating attack in the later period that caused more than half of the casualties to the sneak attack troops of the Hojo Army and Yasuhiko Army, this battle could be said to be a disastrous defeat. As a
The Uesugi Army, one of the main forces of the Japanese anti-Saki coalition, suffered a severe blow and was weakened in this battle.
After the war, Huang Zu sent people to interrogate the prisoners, and accidentally captured a member of the imperial family of the opposing shogunate. He learned that the sneak attack was commanded by Hojo Takuken, with a total number of nearly 90,000 people. As for how the sneak attack plan was formulated,
The imperial family member did not know this, but he knew that when Yasuhiro Kazutoki and Hojo Takuken were preparing to attack Uesugi Kenken, they received a mysterious guest, and then announced that the Han army would attack them and called on the Yamazaki warriors to resist.
Soon, Yoshikazu Yasuhiko and Takusuke Hojo secretly sneaked out of Kobe Port with their troops, and sent out capable personnel to strictly order not to attack the enemy fleet that had come to occupy the port, intending to paralyze the enemy and then attack the unsteady enemy fleet.
, giving the enemy a powerful attack. Originally, this attack was prepared for the Han army, but unexpectedly it caught Uesugi Takata, who was eager for quick success and quick success.
Although the imperial family member claimed that his side did not know that the Han army's long-range weapons were so powerful at the beginning, and chose to attack in the dark because Hojo Takuken believed that the sneak attack in the dark would be more successful, Huang Zu did not agree with this answer. After questioning in detail
After passing through the remaining soldiers, Gan Ning and other generals unanimously concluded that the Yamazaki Kingdom must have set a trap against the Han army, and they knew that the Han army's weapons and equipment were powerful, but they did not have a very deep understanding. However, after this battle, the Yamazaki Kingdom
They must have a considerable understanding of the power of our weapons, but who revealed this information to An Yanyang and Hojo Takuken? Whether there is a traitor in the Han army or the Japanese anti-Japanese coalition forces needs to be studied.
