Chapter 366 Fengchan Busan(1/2)
Fuso·Kyoto Base Camp
A terrifying clash of divine coercion was raging. The navy and army ministers in richly-dressed uniforms were sitting on both sides of the palace. They regarded each other as enemies. Suffocating pressure enveloped the hall, and only the herald's trembling report was left.
"On May 29th, Damin [Zhen Guo Gong] single-handedly stopped our army outside Kangxing City and cooperated with the naval naval artillery bombardment. Hundreds of thousands of our army did not dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool and could only watch the enemy troops cross the sea.
.”
"On June 4th, the [Shenwu Army] took a boat all the way north and landed in Ruijin County [Qingwo West Road]. They captured a county every day and swept across the entire road on the 17th. The 90,000-strong army was shattered and there were more than 100,000 immigrants.
Died in war..."
"On June 23rd, the [Shenwu Army] entered [Qingwo East Road]. The guard general Yagi Shuntaro gathered the sergeants from all counties to defend [Qingshan City]. Damin [Zhenguo Gong] personally took action and destroyed the city in one day.
Tens of thousands of defenders were all broken into pieces, and tens of thousands of immigrants died for the country..."
"On July 9, the [Shenwu Army] invaded [Gushang North Road]. The defender Tsuchiya Nobunaga knew he was outmatched, so he led 110,000 defenders to turn south and join up with the god general Kubota Chiki who went north to support..."
"On July 25, the [Shenwu Army] swept through [Gushang North Road] and came into contact with our army in Gaoling County. The vanguards of both sides fought a bloody battle. The enemy army was defeated and fled in panic. Our army only had thousands of casualties...
…”
"Ha~"
Hearing the herald's emphasis on the word 'only', a naval general sneered, causing a group of army generals to stare angrily.
"Tōgo Kota! What are you laughing at?!"
"Laughing at how shameless your army is. It has 'only' thousands of casualties, but you don't even mention the battle losses!"
"I'm laughing at you for being paralyzed. Our army has been attacking for tens of thousands of miles in the past few months, chasing the [Shenwu Army] and fleeing in panic. If your navy hadn't been holding back, we would have killed Damin [Zhen Guo Gong] to Shen Li!"
"Fart! I know you are chasing me, but I don't know that you are following someone to see off their guests!"
"That's right, you still fled in a hurry. The [Shenwu Army] swept away three roads, and hundreds of thousands of loyal souls of the empire died in a foreign land. What about you? How many enemies did you kill?"
After hearing these shameless words, the army generals could no longer endure it.
"How can it be repaired? It's not all because of you! If the navy could stop the enemy's fleet in Kangxing City, hundreds of thousands of troops would have killed the [Shenwu Army] long ago. How could we watch them sail northward?!
"
"We have just rushed all the way to the southernmost point, and we are exhausted. We are about to go over mountains and ridges to turn around and head north. In a few months, we have traveled tens of thousands of miles from east to west, and even an iron-clad man can't stand it!"
"People can easily travel thousands of miles by boat in a few days, but what about us? Our navy is all shrunken turtles. When they hear the name of Damin [Zhen Guo Gong], they are frightened to death and will only hide in the port.
Shivering!"
Hearing this, the naval general felt so aggrieved that he vomited blood.
"That's enough! Do you think we don't want to annihilate the enemy's fleet? In the last battle, we lost almost all the advanced warships, and the rest were all wooden-hulled ships. What can I do to fight those steel warships that are armed to the teeth?"
"What's more, Damin [Zhen Guo Gong]'s combat effectiveness is as strong as that of a fleet. We dare not divide our troops at all. We can only concentrate all our efforts on a decisive battle, but the enemy's fleet commander is in the path of [its as fast as the wind]
, no matter how different the troops are, she can kill us by hanging and beating us!"
"At the same time, our navy still has to protect [Yue Ye Jian Zun] to extend the national border, annex Shen Li, and protect the smooth supply lines of the eastern sea waterway. The remaining warships are seeking death by going to [Liu Yin Fleet]!!"
Hearing the navy's heartfelt roar of grief and indignation, the soldiers were slightly startled, and inexplicably felt a surge of sympathy that was related to the same disease.
I know!
It was also because of the monster [Zhen Guo Gong] that we didn't dare to divide our troops to intercept, so we were hung up like a dog by the [Shenwu Army].
Otherwise, if the four divine generals divided their troops into four groups, they would have blocked and beaten the [Shenwu Army]!
However, sympathy is sympathy, understanding is understanding, and the blame should still be dumped.
"Red Deer! It's all your navy's incompetence. You must be fully responsible for this loss!!"
"Baga! Your army is vulnerable and you have abandoned your armor. What does it have to do with our navy?"
"Navy Red Deer!"
"Army Baga!"
……………………
They are obviously a group of extremely noble and high-ranking generals, who are cool and graceful in front of outsiders, but once behind closed doors, their quality is low and they are so noisy that their faces turn red and their necks thicken.
There is certainly an element of blame-shifting, but more often than not, it is due to old grudges accumulated over a long period of competition for resources.
And when he heard that the main hall was as noisy as a vegetable market, the mysterious figure sitting behind the jade curtain finally couldn't stand it anymore and uttered two words in a low voice.
"enough!"
The weird and distorted crane voice spoke as he spoke, the roaring criticism disappeared instantly, and the entire hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
However, at this moment, a hurried waiter rushed into the hall and quietly presented the latest information.
The herald's pupils shrank sharply when he saw the information, and he couldn't help but take a breath.
"read!"
The crane voice behind the jade curtain was calm and calm, but the fiercely steaming and squirming protective auspicious clouds revealed that his heart was not as calm as it seemed.
"August...On August 11th, Kubota Tomoki drove all the way, and the [Shenwu Army] left by boat at [Qingwo West Road]..."
"On August 16, the [Shenwu Army] re-landed in Kangxing City and swept eastward to sweep [Gushang South Road]. Forty thousand defenders were smashed into pieces, and the remaining fifty thousand people turned north..."
After hearing the news, the silent ministers could no longer bear it, especially the army generals who were so angry that their heads were smoking.
"Beast! Beast! Beast!!!"
The roar of incompetence and fury resounded through the sky, and the heaven and earth within a radius of dozens of miles trembled under the violent and crazy fluctuations of divinity.
But after being furious, they still have to face reality.
At this point, the six Shinryi Roads occupied by the rear have been plowed by the [Shenwu Army], leaving only the [Gyeonggi Road] and [Jiangping Road] where tens of millions of troops are facing each other, and the enemies dare not set foot there easily.
In just a few months, the casualties of the regular army alone exceeded half a million, and the losses of immigrants were countless!
You must know that most of these immigrants are elites in Fuso. They are full of adventurous spirit, strong mobility, and rich experience...
They were originally expected to help the army develop local resources, reduce the supply pressure on the front line in the early stage, and continue to provide blood transfusions to the country in the later stage.
As a result, I didn’t expect Damin [Zhen Guo Gong] to be so vicious. Everywhere he went, soldiers and civilians were raped. He even took the time to take away many prisoners and transport them back to [Liu Yin Fengguo] as slaves!
Now, the famous [Fuso Happy Camp] has spread back to the country, becoming a shame to the entire empire and an unspeakable scar in the hearts of all Fuso people.
On the other hand, although there are still four divine generals and more than 500,000 troops in the occupied area, anyone with a discerning eye can see that without the help of the navy, they can only be played by the [Shenwu Army] repeatedly, running back and forth from east to west like a dog.
What's more important is that the enemy's 'quality' is obviously a level higher than theirs, and coupled with the ability to maneuver by boat, their pursuit has been extremely desperate in the past few months. Thousands of soldiers died from exhaustion during the march alone.
I was really taken aback.
Now, the enemy has landed in Kangxing City again, inserting the most fatal knife into their scarred Taoist heart.
I chased you from south to north, from west to east for tens of thousands of miles, but you jumped on the horse and ran back again?!!!
Playing?!!
This can no longer be called a war, but a unilateral insult, a comprehensive trampling from body to soul.
Everyone present was about to have a cerebral hemorrhage just listening to the briefing, let alone the humiliated generals on the battlefield!
Putting themselves in their shoes, everyone feels that they can't bear it anymore and must put an end to the enemy at all costs.
So, seeing the herald's embarrassed look that was hesitant to speak, a chill rose up the backs, and an ominous premonition emerged in everyone's mind.
Could it be...
Don't! Don't be fooled by that [Zhen Guo Gong], he just wants to make you lose your mind and divide your troops so that you can defeat them all easily!
Clenching their fists, everyone thought again and suddenly realized that from the standpoint of those divine generals, they had no choice.
Half a million troops were shattered, millions of immigrants were massacred, and the grassroots rule that was finally established was completely collapsed. The occupied areas of the six roads returned to the hands of Shen Liren. If they want to be controlled again, they will have to pay a lot of sweat and blood.
What is even more frightening is that after the humiliation of Damin [Zhen Guo Gong], the majesty of Fusang's army was shattered, and the unruly people lost their fear and even continued to resist their rule.
This turned the fat meat that was originally a blood transfusion into a bleeding wound. Not only was it impossible to feed the local people back, but a large number of people had to be continuously invested in suppressing it.
And for all this, someone has to take responsibility!
The humiliation and responsibility left those divine generals with no choice, either to kill Damin [Zhen Guo Gong] to make a desperate comeback, or to return to their homeland to apologize by caesarean section amidst the reviling of everyone.
It may even bring disgrace to the family and make it impossible for them to hold their heads high!
At this point, only one of them and the [Shenwu Army] is destined to survive.
"Keep reading!"
Following the urging from behind the jade curtain, the herald wiped the cold sweat from his head and whispered dryly with a slightly trembling voice.
"Four divine generals including Kubota Tomoki left a final letter, willing to serve the empire with their lives. The 570,000 imperial army soldiers divided into two groups and blocked the [Shenwu Army] at [Gushang South Road], and then...then...
"
"Then what happened?!!"
"Then Damin [Zhen Guo Gong], with his cavalry equivalent to a thousand, broke the formation by himself. The two armies at the front and back were defeated one by one. Four divine generals died for their country. The 570,000 imperial troops were chased by the [Shenwu Army] for hundreds of miles.
Almost all of them were destroyed, with less than 10,000 survivors..."
The trembling words echoed in the domes, and the vast hall fell into deathly silence. Only the suppressed breathing could be heard from behind the jade curtain.
To be continued...
