Originally, Soga Ishikawa planned to take the remaining troops and escape on a boat.
Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the dock, what greeted them was not their own ship, but the cannons of the Tang warship.
Originally, Li Xiaogong was planning to lead his people to evacuate.
But before he could give the order, he heard a report from someone below, saying that he saw Japanese troops approaching the coastline.
How could Li Xiaogong be polite to them?
He really didn't expect that he would have an unexpected harvest today.
Li Xiaogong did not hesitate and directly ordered the shelling of the dock.
In an instant, artillery fire flew across the temporary pier, and in an instant, the temporary pier was reduced to nothing.
Many Japanese soldiers who had no time to escape were directly blasted into the sky by artillery fire.
Now, these Japanese troops have been frightened by Datang's artillery.
The first reaction when seeing the artillery fire was to turn around and run away.
But now that Li Chengqian has led his troops to catch up, do they still have a way out?
Looking at the Mo Dao soldiers advancing into the wall, and looking at the gunboats in front of them that kept spouting artillery fire.
At this time, the Japanese army really realized what it means to have no way to the sky and no way to the earth.
Soga Ishikawa couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh: "It's true that God has killed me."
In fact, there was nothing wrong with his plan.
Because Li Chengqian only led five thousand troops.
He can completely take advantage of the number of people and quickly eat up this team.
Then, taking advantage of the time difference between the arrival of reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty, they quickly retreated to the coastline and retreated to the Japanese country.
But he would have never imagined that the military power of the Tang Dynasty was so powerful.
These men and horses of my own did not even eat the five thousand soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty.
Moreover, even he himself was almost beheaded by the two lunatics Li Chengqian and Gao Zhixing who broke through the military formation.
Of course, he would never have thought that he had just left not long ago.
His own floating ships were defeated by Datang's fleet.
At this moment, Soga Ishikawa wanted to swing his sword and commit suicide I have the heart to kill myself.
What he fought in this battle was so embarrassing that if he returned home, he would probably be laughed at by his colleagues.
He was really too embarrassed to return home, so he drew his sword on the spot and prepared to understand himself.
But Qingzhai Mingluo next to him stopped him.
Qingzhai Mingluo said: "General, you must not commit suicide."
"If I don't commit suicide, what else can I do?"
Soga Ishikawa was about to cry but said without tears: "Now, with the Tang Dynasty Navy in front of us and the Tang Dynasty pursuing troops behind us, where can we find a way out?"
"I only hope that after my death, Datang can let you go and let you return home safely."
It's ridiculous to say that.
The Tang navy and the Tang army combined totaled only more than 20,000 and less than 30,000 people.
And his men numbered nearly 40,000 to 50,000.
But at this moment, he couldn't even think of any resistance.
His heart was completely filled with a deep despair.
"General."
"It's not like we have no way out."
Qingzhai Mingluo said: "We still have a way to go."
"Um?"
Soga Ishikawa looked at him in surprise and said: "The ship is gone, and the morale of our brothers is so low. Where can I find a way out?"
"Of course."
"According to intelligence, although there are tens of thousands of people on the Tang Dynasty's side, they are stationed on the southern coastline, but there are none on the west."
"We can definitely pass through central Silla and enter Baekje."
"As long as we set up blocking positions along the way, we can block Datang's marching time."
"That way, we will have enough time to collect ships in Baekje."
Qingzhai Mingluo said: "We will definitely be able to return home by boat before these Tang bandits pursue us."
heard this
, Soga Ishikawa also suddenly felt his eyes light up.
He looked straight at Qingzhai's name and said: "Qingzhai, I really didn't expect you to be so talented."
"Blame me, blame me."
"If I had used you earlier, maybe what happened today wouldn't have happened."
Soga Ishikawa Nao said: "Quickly, send the order to the whole army, leave three thousand people to block the enemy's advance, and the rest will follow me to the west."
Hearing this, Qingzhai Mingluo should intervene. ??
Now, Suga Ishikawa was completely frightened and blinded by Li Chengqian, and he didn't pay attention at all.
So much so that after Qingzhai Mingluo revealed this strategy, he agreed without even thinking about it.
But he didn't seem to have thought about it.
If they fought all the way west, they would still have to pass through the Silla Army's defense line.
If Silla blocks them from the front, then they will face a situation of being attacked from both front and back.
But this can also prove from another aspect that the Japanese army did not take the Silla army in their eyes.
To say pitiful.
That's pity for the three thousand Japanese troops who were left to block the march of the Tang Dynasty.
They naturally knew that being left behind by the general to block Datang's march was tantamount to death.
But they had to listen to the general's orders.
As a result, many Japanese soldiers rushed towards Mo Dao soldiers' front line regardless of their lives.
Then, they were cut into two pieces by Mo Daobing's merciless sword. The scene looked very tragic.
It's just that in this tragic situation, it's a little bit ridiculous.
"What is a meaningless sacrifice?"
"This is a meaningless sacrifice."
"Can their sacrifice stop Datang?"
Li Chengqian shook his head and smiled: "These people are really ridiculous."
The same state exists in the highest level.
He said: "I have to say that your advance planning is really quite powerful. , actually even thought of this step.”
"Where, where."
"It's not that I'm great."
Li Chengqian smiled contemptuously and said, "It's just that these Japanese soldiers are too stupid."
Since he had made up his mind to eliminate these Japanese troops, Li Chengqian's character would definitely make perfect arrangements.
As early as when conveying the news to Li Tingxue, Li Chengqian had conveyed the news to Silla.
He said that the opponent was most likely going to use roundabout tactics to re-enter the hinterland of Silla.
He asked Silla to send troops to stop the Japanese army, so as to engage in encirclement tactics with the Tang Dynasty, wipe out all the Japanese army on the land of Silla, and avenge the death of the Silla people.
Li Chengqian said bluntly: "Now, the only thing worth worrying about is Silla's court."
"I really can't predict whether they will send troops to assist us."
Hearing this, Gao Zhixing was stunned.
He said: "We are fighting for them now. If they don't send troops, wouldn't it be too shameless?"
"When are they going to show off?"
"We have been fighting the Japanese army for so long, but have you seen a Silla soldier participating in the battle?"
Li Chengqian narrowed his eyes and said, "But I can't control that much. My purpose is just to destroy these Japanese troops."
"But."
"If they don't send troops."
"I'm afraid our army will still have a grudge against them."
Gao Zhixing said worriedly: "I'm afraid it won't be easy to handle by then."
The Tang Dynasty had actually been complaining for a long time. Gao Zhixing and others had been clamoring to withdraw their troops before, just because of this.
Fortunately, I met Xiao Guzi later and the matter was settled.
But if Silla does not send troops this time, it will be equivalent to treating the Tang Dynasty as fools.
Li Chengqian glanced at Gao Zhixing and said: "If they don't send troops this time, then I will send a message to my father to mobilize 100,000 troops to destroy Silla..."
