Chapter 2879 The first Silla army to set foot on the Japanese land
After hearing Cheng Chubi's words, all the martial arts disciples couldn't help but smile and scream strangely.
Everyone has seen artillery show off its power on the sea, and has also seen similar flying thunder cannons blasting the Tang Dynasty into a mess, and even a wall of the palace was blown down.
With this thing by his side, even if the Japanese had the ability to build the world's most fortified city like Luoyang City here, not to mention Feiniao City, they would still be able to destroy it.
Under Cheng Chubi's command, apart from the 500 elites transferred to Niu Weituo, there were still more than 4,000 elites from the Tang Dynasty.
In addition, there are more than a dozen family generals and personal soldiers of martial arts disciples. When they are gathered together, there are nearly a thousand people.
Coupled with dozens of artillery pieces, it's definitely a lot of fun.
Looking at this group of happy friends, Cheng Chubi's eyes had already fallen on the soldiers of the Cheng family not far away who were continuing their throwing training there.
As the only gunpowder weapon expert in the Tang Dynasty, Cheng Chubi could have forgotten such a good treasure as grenades.
This group of Cheng family grenadiers, who had followed Cheng Sanlang in his expeditions, were also able to exert powerful destructive power and frighten the enemy.
Moreover, when the Japanese city is invaded, if the Japanese resist stubbornly, the grenadiers will tell them what the king of street fighting is.
A clipper ship was moored at the dock, and a general jumped out of the ship and rushed to Cheng Sanlang to report it.
"Deputy Manager, our patrol fleet has encountered a ship carrying the leader of the Nanhai Kingdom and his party, and is guiding them into the port."
"Nanhai Kingdom? Hmm... Go and tell Wang Xuance that Wang Xuance has joined the army and let him be responsible for receiving the envoys. By the way, see if there are any omissions in the credentials that Nanhai Kingdom brought to Cheng."
After the generals left, Cheng Chubi smacked his lips in glee. Calculating it this way, the six closer countries of Sanin, Sanyo, Hokuriku, Hyuga, Awa, and Nanhai are either self-proclaimed.
The king of the country came in person, or the prince and important ministers came together.
Of course, they had to come at the call of Cheng Sanlang, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty.
Cheng Chubi summoned them, first of all, to ask them to bring the credentials of their respective countries, and secondly, to let the envoys from the various countries on the Japanese islands appreciate the power of the new weapons of the Tang Dynasty.
Let this group of leaders of the Japanese island countries understand that facing the Tang Dynasty, it would be fine if the countries on the Japanese island could obey and obey them honestly.
If they dare to be disrespectful to the Tang Dynasty, then the Japanese country, which will definitely be wiped out and wiped out, will become their example.

The 30,000 Silla soldiers and horses have been completely reorganized and are marching along the road towards the south.
Jin Yuxin rode his horse in the army, looking at this elite Silla team, and he was quite excited in his heart.
After all, the Japanese country was not a good bird in the first place, and it could be considered a feud with Silla.
Just over forty years ago, when Queen Seondeok's biological father, King Jinpyeong, was ruling Silla, Silla and Imna (then controlled by Japan) were at war with each other.
Emperor Suiko of Japan led an army of more than 10,000 people, with the minister of the Ministry of Border as the general and Sui Jichen as the deputy general, and crossed the sea to help Imna attack Silla.
The Japanese army captured five cities of Silla, and the king of Silla sued for peace and ceded six cities of Tatara, Sunara, Pokchigui, Weda, Namgara, and Alara.
After Emperor Suiko recalled the troops on the Korean Peninsula, King Shinpei was naturally unhappy with his previous humiliation and surrender, and once again raised troops to attack Nona again.
As a result, in the spring of the next year, Emperor Suiko of Japan once again ordered an expedition to help Imna. In order to attack the general of Silla, Prince Raimu led an army of 25,000 people to prepare to attack Silla.
Only this time, the prince of Laimu fell seriously ill while ships were gathering on the coast of Japan to transport military supplies. As a result, the Northern Expedition to Silla to aid Renna was suspended, allowing Silla to finally swallow Renna safely.
That.
After that, when Silla and Baekje attacked each other, the Japanese country also stood behind Baekje again and again, crossing the sea to help Baekje at every turn.
However, everyone in the Silla Kingdom hated the Japanese nation, but they couldn't do anything to stop them. After all, Silla's naval level was really inferior.
But now, Silla's soldiers and horses have finally set foot on the land of Japan. They have to achieve something and boost their morale.
This is also the reason why Jin Yuxin agreed without any hesitation after accepting Cheng Sanlang's military order for him to lead the army.
Jin Yuxin was eager to have the opportunity to make achievements. Otherwise, if he followed the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang army would make achievements frequently, but the tens of thousands of elites under his command would not make any achievements.
After returning to Silla, it would be strange not to be ridiculed openly and secretly by opponents who disliked me. That would also cause a heavy blow to my prestige as the number one general in Silla.

After leaving the natural harbor of Wakasa, the 30,000 Silla troops began to head south.
There were already a lot of Japanese people living in the Wakasa area, but the actions of the Tang and New Allied Forces could not hide the actions of the Japanese people living on this land.
What's more, there are still many agents and spies here who are loyal to the Japanese court. After they saw the army starting to move south, they reacted immediately.
Soon, the news that tens of thousands of troops had left Wakasa and headed south had reached Asuka City in the early morning of the next day.
The eldest brother of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, who was determined to fight tooth and nail, immediately received the news.
He decided to order his confidant General Zhiquayang Amanda to immediately lead two thousand elites and ten thousand recruits to set an ambush in the area of Xiangyun Temple.
He also appointed his minister Kamazu to be responsible for the defense reinforcement of Asuka Castle, while his eldest son Prince Takeru, Ishikawa Maro and others were responsible for recruiting soldiers and distributing weapons and armor.
Even though the weapons and armor were no longer enough, and most of the people recruited had no military training, these were not a problem at all for the Japanese court who wanted to fight to the death.
It doesn't matter if you don't have a weapon. You can cut bamboo into a gun. It's a long pole anyway. If you sharpen it, it can stab someone.
It doesn't matter if you haven't received military training. You can pick up a sharpened bamboo spear and practice it for three to five years, but you can still be decent at it. Throwing it on the top of the city can also play the role of a fox pretending to be a tiger.
As for the Nakadai brother, together with another confidant general Ishikawa Maro, they led 5,000 elite soldiers and 20,000 new soldiers to set up an ambush in the Kameoka area.
In the words of the elder brother, no matter what the cost, no matter what means are used, we must try our best to kill more Tang soldiers and horses with the help of geographical advantages.
In short, the soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty must not be allowed to set foot on the undefended Flying Bird Plain unscathed.
Zhi Quan Yang Wang Tian, 2,000 elites and 10,000 had just been recruited, and they had not even trained for two days before they had to rush to the vicinity of Xiangyun Temple to ambush them.
