The place where Echizen Prefecture meets Kyoto Prefecture is called Wakasa Prefecture. The area is not large, and agriculture is not developed. However, because of the coastline on the east and west sides of Wakasa Prefecture, the fishery, shipping industry and salt production industry are very developed. It is an area that can be used during peacetime.
The place that produces a lot of wealth has always been highly valued by the Japanese court because it is close to Kyoto Prefecture.
Although the Taira family controls many docks on the west coast of Japan, only one of them does not have access to Wakasa Prefecture. This is also the largest port in the hands of the imperial court. Moreover, the entire port is naturally formed, and the geographical environment is the best in Japan.
However, at this time, in a place called Mount Nosaka between Echizen and Wakasa states, it was just early spring, and the snow on the top of Mount Nosaka had not yet melted, but the early spring sun could no longer bear the loneliness, quietly coming from
Dongfang climbed up, but the scene in front of him seemed to frighten him, and there was a hint of trembling in the warm sunshine.
I saw a plain near Noban Mountain, which was devastated, with corpses strewn all over the field, and broken limbs and broken arms everywhere. It seemed that the entire earth was dyed red by blood, and only a piece of blue sky and broken grass were left.
Withered, as cold as frost in the morning, the sky and the earth are really worried, the grass and trees are sad, the scattered flags fell on the chariot, but only a small piece has been burned by the fire, there is a little ink stain on it, but it can no longer be seen
There is something else written on it. At a glance, the entire Wakasa Prefecture seems to have fallen into a sea of corpses.
One day ago, these corpses were still alive. They came here with great interest and felt happy. They climbed Mount Nosaka and looked at Kyoto Prefecture not far away. Everything in front of them was so wonderful.
However, they never dreamed that the bad news would come in the evening of that day. From then on, they would never have the chance to see Kyoto Prefecture again.
Lying here is the 40,000 main force of the Ping clan. It is all the hard work of Ping Zhongzheng and all the elites of the Ping clan, but this time it is back to before liberation.
In the initial stage, the Taira clan was constantly suppressed and beaten by the Genji clan, without even a chance to breathe. It was not until the Song army arrived that they turned over, and then Taira Tadashi began a large-scale counterattack.
Because the Song army was invincible on the eastern front, it had repelled the Genji army in the Kanto region and could endanger the Kanto region at any time. This effectively contained Genji, who had to prevent the Song army from advancing eastward. He was timid and was caught off guard in advance.
, faced with the attack of all the main forces of the Ping clan, they were defeated one after another, and they didn't even have the strength to fight back.
And everyone in the Ping family is holding back their anger. We are all warriors, so there is no need to rush into each other. If you want to rape, do it. If you have the ability, just do it openly.
It is simply an insult to us warriors. These two families were originally feuding. After this battle, the hatred can no longer be described as deep as the sea. Anyway, there is only you and not me.
This side is a bird of panic, but the other side comes with revenge, and their morale is obviously not on the same level. The result of this battle can be imagined.
Successive victories have made Taira Tairasa's ambitions expand to the extreme. In fact, at that time, the group headed by the Fujiwara clan sent people to make peace. For nobles such as the Fujiwara clan, no matter which samurai group you belong to,
No matter how many of your warriors die, he is very happy to see it. He has never regarded Genji as a direct descendant. In the eyes of the Fujiwara clan, whether it is the Taira clan or the Genji clan, they are just watchdogs. It doesn't matter who they win over.
.
Even the Fujiwara clan hoped that the Taira clan would turn against them and drive the Song army out together with the Gen clan.
Ping Zhongzheng is not a fool. If I drive away the Song army, if you try to trick me again, I will definitely die. Moreover, Ping Zhongzheng does not want to get a big official position now. His goal has changed from revenge to
After arriving in Kyoto Prefecture, things had reached this point. Everyone wanted to be emperor, but they flatly refused and kicked the Fujiwara family out of the tent. They would rather be the heads of chickens than the queens of cows.
At the end of the year, the Taira clan arrived at the border of Wakasa Prefecture. As long as they passed through Wakasa Prefecture, they would reach Kyoto Prefecture in front of them. And once the Taira clan took control of Wakasa Prefecture, they would completely control the entire sea area of Japan.
More importantly, although Wakasa Prefecture has developed commerce and is surrounded by mountains on three sides and the sea on one side, these mountains are not high and the terrain is very open, so it is difficult to defend.
It is precisely because of this that when the Taira army came here, Taira Tadamasa was very proud, because he felt that the Genji would not fight them here, because there was no danger to defend here, and you can't beat me with hard power, so it stands to reason
Generally speaking, we should retreat to the border of Kyoto Prefecture, which is easy to defend. After all, it is Kyoto Prefecture and the defense system is quite complete.
But he never imagined that he was walking into the enemy's trap step by step.
The head of the Minamoto family, Minamoto Yoshitaka, was not as capable as Taira Tadamasa. He himself knew this, so he chose to stab him in the back. When they retreated to Wakasa Prefecture, Minamoto Yoshitada really planned to simply retreat to Kyoto Prefecture.
There he had a decisive battle with the Taira clan.
But he has a nephew, named Minamoto Yoshitsune, who is in his early thirties, an upright man in his prime. This man is great, and he is also a very famous general in Japanese history. Originally, he had been demoted to another place by Emperor Shirakawa.
He recently got in touch with the Fujiwara clan and just came back. For him, this is a good opportunity to make meritorious deeds. Whether he can be appreciated by the court depends on this time.
Yuan Weiyi told his uncle Yuan Yizhong, you can no longer retreat. Once the Kyoto Prefecture is endangered, my morale will be very low. The outcome will be unpredictable. Moreover, if Ruo Nazhou is lost, the Song army can directly
Landing from here means that the Song army is directly facing Kyoto Prefecture, so Wakasa Prefecture cannot be lost.
That Minamoto Yoshitaka sounds like there is some truth to it, but the problem is that we can't defeat it again and again, and there is no danger to defend here. If we want to fight, we will definitely lose!
Yuan Weiyi proposed a plan to his uncle. Although Wakasa Prefecture is not easy to defend, it is surrounded by mountains on three sides and looks like the mouth of a sack. It is a good place for encirclement and annihilation. Our soldiers can hide in the mountains. More importantly,
What's more, to the east of Wakasa Prefecture is the largest inner lake in Japan. Because it looks like a lute, it is called Lake Biwa. Minamoto asked uncle Kaname for a thousand cavalry. If you give me a thousand cavalry, I will sneak around from Lake Biwa to Pingdao.
From behind, we are attacking from all sides.
The Japanese cavalry is very valuable. There are no cavalry at all. The few cavalry are on the court side. The Ping family has very few cavalry. One thousand cavalry is not a lot for Japan.
Moreover, he also analyzed Ping Zhongzheng's psychology with his uncle, saying that Ping Zhongzheng must have been carried away and careless at this time, and you also said that if Nazhou is not easy to defend, we will definitely not be able to defeat it head-on, so Ping Zhongzheng must have thought the same way.
, this war is all about surprise, we will start the war at the most unexpected place of the Ping clan, and encircle and annihilate all the opponent's main forces in one fell swoop.
Minamoto Yoshitaka was also forced by Taira Tadamasa and had no choice. He knew that Ping Tadamasa would definitely kill him, so he adopted Minamoto Yoshitaka's suggestion and allocated him a thousand fine cavalry, while he led an army and pretended to withdraw.
Wakasa Prefecture pretended to fight to the death with Heilongjiang in Kyoto Prefecture, but secretly mobilized all the main forces behind the scenes, and even transferred 10,000 soldiers from Kyoto Prefecture, a total of 50,000 troops, to ambush near Nosaka Mountain.
Genwei Yi quickly led a thousand fine cavalry from Lake Biwa to the rear of the Taira clan, waiting for the Taira clan to walk into the encirclement.
Sure enough, Pingzhong was sure that Genji did not dare to set up an ambush here, so he walked in without any inquiring. Just in the evening, Genji blew the horn of the general attack, and Genji's troops rushed down from all directions. The mountain
Although it is not high, it is still condescending and is very suitable for charging. This is really Taidasasa trying to die. He really thought that a road leads to Rome and only occupied a few commanding heights on the border. He thought that Wakasa Prefecture was in his pocket.
thing.
There have been many battles in Wakasa Province, and half of them were fought for the commanding heights. However, in order to hurry up, Taira Taira wanted to launch an attack before Genji had completed his deployment, but he fell into Minamoto no Yoshi's trap.
The Ping clan's army never thought that there were enemies here, and there were enemies on all sides. It was dusk again, the sky and the earth were the same color, and at a glance, there were as many enemies as ants. The morale of the army was in chaos for a while, and they didn't know what to do.
Ping Zhongzheng knew that he had been tricked, but it was too late. He shouted desperately and organized his soldiers to block the enemy's charge. However, the morale of the army was already in chaos. The Ping clan warriors fled back with all their strength.
But at this moment, there was a sudden killing sound from behind, and a group of cavalry rushed over with lightning speed. This group of cavalry completely killed Ping's life. This is the advantage of cavalry over infantry.
As long as your infantry loses its formation and the morale of the army is in chaos, it will only be harvested, because the cavalry is high above. When the infantry rushes in, they will see the enemy when they look up. Although there are only a thousand cavalry, the soldiers of the Ping clan feel that they are everywhere.
enemy.
This battle was a complete harvest, and before nightfall, it was already coming to an end.
There was only one result, which was that the Ping clan's army was completely annihilated.
If Li Qi knew this, he would smile crookedly, because Li Qi knew that everyone would be wary of outsiders, and the Ping family would definitely be on guard against him. If the Song Dynasty wanted to conquer Japan, it must
At the right time, eradicate the Ping clan. Otherwise, once the Ping clan grows stronger, it will really turn out that they are really just here to help, and they will go home honestly after the fight.
Therefore, the most critical point in the Japanese campaign is not to defeat the Genji, but how to eliminate the Taira.
This is what Li Qi is most worried about, because he doesn't know how to do it. This matter cannot be arranged in advance. Niu Gao can only act according to the situation. However, Li Qi never expected that Song Jun would not interfere with it.
Ping himself jumped into the fire pit, and was trapped so miserably. This seemed to be beyond Li Qi's expectation. He just hoped that Ping would suffer a heavy blow, and it would be best to leave him with some fresh troops. He didn't expect Ping Zhongzheng to be like this.
Simply, the entire army was wiped out.
After the battle at Nosakayama, it may be difficult for the Taira clan to recover.
