For a whole hundred years.
The largest naval battle that broke out in the Qin Dynasty's foreign campaigns ended perfectly with a great victory.
The Qin army has begun to land.
No matter how much resistance the Japanese pirates put up, it was all useless in front of the fierce and wolf-like army.
at present.
The people throughout the entire Izu Island heard the sound of artillery fire.
Those who were well-informed already knew that it was the Qin army that had fought back.
In a small village.
Several elderly people were gathered together.
From time to time, young people would bring back news from outside.
One of them said, "Brothers, tell me, can our Great Qin army defeat the Japanese pirates?"
Someone shook their head and responded, "I don't know. Anyway, I'm already quite content to be able to see the Qin army attempt to drive the Japanese pirates off Yizhou Island in my lifetime."
Japanese pirates have been rampant on the island for many years.
Moreover, they are trying to completely transform the next generation of young people into citizens of their Sakura Country.
Many people have begun to forget their roots.
Even the old people who knew where their roots were secretly felt that the Qin Dynasty would never be able to recapture Yizhou.
The so-called "Old Qin people" have almost disappeared from this land.
Now, I heard that the court has sent troops here.
How could this not excite these old people?
Of course, some young people who are close to the Japanese pirates think that the Qin Dynasty deliberately provoked the war and was the evil party.
They have forgotten where their roots are.
...
Huo Qubing and Zheng Chenggong had also successfully landed.
Next, they will lead the army and prepare to attack Chikan City.
All kinds of large siege equipment were moved to the island.
A naval battle did not damage their siege equipment.
After all, the ships carrying the equipment are all in the rear.
With sufficient siege equipment, they were sure to capture Chikan City in the shortest time possible.
This time, they adopted the tactic of surrounding three sides and leaving one side empty, which was the tactic that the Qin soldiers were best at.
This means besieging Chikan City on three sides and leaving the enemy a way out.
In this way, when the Japanese pirates defend the city, they will not fight like cornered beasts because of the chance of survival.
"Leave the north gate to me."
Zhao Yun took the lead, leading tens of thousands of people and advancing towards the north gate.
Zheng Chenggong bowed to Huo Qubing and said, "I will be in charge of the west gate."
The latter nodded.
The troops were divided into three groups and attacked Huanglong directly.
Kato Yoshiaki, who was responsible for defending Chikan City, had already sent people to ask for help from Izu City.
But how could Toyotomi Hideyoshi take care of him at this time?
So, Kato Yoshiaki did not wait for reinforcements, but instead received a letter written by Toyotomi Hideyoshi himself.
The letter contained only one sentence:
Be loyal to the Emperor.
The meaning is self-evident.
"Baga! Baga! Damn Qin people, Baga!"
Kato Yoshiaki vented all his anger on the Qin army.
He personally supervised the defense of the city.
It is well known that the Japanese pirates are not good at defending cities.
However, Kato Yoshiaki, who was determined to die, had a sense of déjà vu as if the city was still there when he commanded the army to defend the city.
Therefore, it was really difficult for the Qin army to capture Chikan City in a short time while trying to minimize its own casualties.
They had to set up camp outside the city.
As for Huo Guang.
At this time, they had already stationed along the coastal areas.
At this moment, Toyotomi Hideyoshi was like a turtle, closing the city gates and refusing to leave.
Even if Huo Guang revealed one or two flaws, Toyotomi Hideyoshi would disappear and stay in the city.
However, this allowed Huo Guang's plan to succeed.
Because his original plan was to wait until Zheng Chenggong and others captured Chikan City before launching a general attack on the Japanese pirates.
...
Zhang Liao has successfully recovered the Penghu Islands.
In other words, subsequent Qin army soldiers could land in Yizhou continuously through the Penghu Islands.
This won the Qin army a valuable supply line.
With the Penghu Islands, Huo Guang could fight a long-term war of attrition with the Japanese pirates.
Once the opportunity is right, the Japanese pirates will be defeated.
Before this, Ying Yuan had issued an order that in the battle of Yizhou, no matter how many Japanese pirates were captured, they would all be killed and none would be spared.
So, basically, once the Japanese pirates were defeated, their entire army would be annihilated.
captive?
Does not exist.
......
Half a month later.
Xianyang City.
In the Xuanzheng Hall.
Ying Yuan had just received an urgent battle report from Yizhou that had traveled thousands of miles.
At this time, Cai Jing and Qin Hui were both standing in front of him.
The former bowed and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! With the landing of the army, the Japanese pirates have lost their advantage in naval battles.
Siege warfare has always been the Qin army's forte, and this battle is certain to be victorious."
Although he doesn't know much about military strategy.
But what was said is true.
Even Cao Cao agreed with this.
But Ying Yuan was a little worried. "Is there any news from Sakura Country? I'm afraid they will send reinforcements to Yizhou."
Hearing this, Cao Cao clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured. Marshal Huo has a full 600,000 troops. Even if Japan sends reinforcements, it will be of no avail.
Moreover, I have heard that civil unrest has broken out in Japan. Although the scale is not large, it is still a big trouble.
