Chapter 418 Battle of Baekgang (1)
"Reporting to the governor, the whole city has been searched, and there is no trace of Buyeo Feng and others." The soldier reported the situation to Liu Rengui.
Zhouliu City was quickly captured by the Tang army after the enemy's traitor opened the city gate and led the Tang army into the city.
Liu Rengui immediately ordered a city-wide search for Buyeo Feng. As long as Buyeo Feng was captured, the Baekje rebellion would be completely resolved.
"Buyo Feng has escaped, Lord Liu, what should we do next?" Liu Rengui waved his hand to let the soldiers retreat and asked.
"Needless to say, of course we should immediately hunt down Buyeo Feng. As long as he is still in Baekje, we will find him even if we have to dig deep into the ground." Guo Daifeng said. "
No need! I just received intelligence that the Japanese army will arrive in Baekje soon. I think Buyeo Feng and others have already gone out to sea to join the Japanese warriors!" Liu Rengui said.
"It's a pity to let Buyeo Feng escape! Now the Japanese warriors are involved again, and there are still many remnants in Baekje that have not been wiped out. What should we do next?" Liu Renyuan asked.
"You don't have to worry about this! The remaining remnants of Baiji are just a mob, not worth worrying about. Guo Daifeng and Shazha Xiangru can go and wipe them out."
"But our enemies are at sea. This time, defeating the Japanese samurai army is a matter of vital importance to us. We can't make any mistakes." Liu Rengui said.
"That's what you said, but we don't even know how many people the Japanese have sent, their weapons and equipment, and we have no experience fighting against them. How should our army respond to this battle?" Liu Renyuan said. "
We don't know the details of the Japanese samurai, and they know nothing about our army either. No one knows who, and the brave will win when they meet on a narrow road!" Liu Rengui said.
What is there to be afraid of without experience? Experience is gained through fighting. No one is born knowing how to lead troops to fight. After being on the battlefield for a long time, you will know everything.
There is nothing to be afraid of the Japanese samurai. They all have a head on one shoulder, and no one has more holes than the other.
You can deal with the Japanese samurai the same way you deal with other tribes. There is nothing to be afraid of samurai from an overseas island country.
"So, where does Liu Gong plan to choose as the main battlefield to fight the Japanese samurai?" Liu Renyuan asked, thinking about the terrain of Baekje in his mind, trying to find a favorable terrain.
When the time comes, he can lead the Japanese samurai to the terrain they have chosen, so that he can increase his chances of winning this battle.
"I won't choose anywhere else but Baekgangkou to fight the Japanese warriors. We must defeat them in one fell swoop." Liu Rengui said.
"Mr. Liu, you actually plan to fight the Japanese warriors on the sea. Isn't it too risky? Our army has never fought on the sea." Liu Renyuan was surprised.
"What's so surprising? Since Japan came from the sea, we will defeat the Japanese warriors on the sea."
"Our army has never fought on the sea, so what? We can't stick to the old ways. There is a first time for everything. Then I, Liu Rengui, will be the first to fight on the sea." Liu Rengui said.
"Since Lord Liu has made up his mind! I can't say much. Since Lord Liu wants to fight, I, Liu Renyuan, will naturally help him. I wonder if Lord Liu has any specific deployment?" Liu Renyuan asked. "
There is no specific deployment yet. We have to wait for the arrival of reinforcements and join forces with them. What is the situation in Silla?" Liu Rengui said, and then asked about Silla.
"King Kim Beommin of Silla has led several thousand troops to help us and fight against the Baekje rebels together. Should he also participate in the Battle of Baekgang?" Liu Rengui asked. "
No, let Kim Beommin stay on land! We don't know what the result of tomorrow's battle will be. If he goes, it will be a hindrance. It is better to let him stay on the shore." Liu Rengui said, he rejected Liu Renyuan's proposal.
No matter what, Kim Beommin is the king of Silla. He doesn't know what the outcome of tomorrow's battle will be. If Kim Beommin gets into trouble on the ship, Liu Rengui can't bear the responsibility.
"Report! Report to the governor and the governor, the reinforcements sent by His Majesty have arrived and have now arrived at Zhouliu City." A soldier came over, knelt on one knee and saluted Liu Rengui.
...
On the vast ocean, a fleet consisting of hundreds of warships is heading towards Baekje.
"Report to the former general, there are flag signals coming from the front, and several warships are coming towards our fleet."
On the flagship of the Japanese fleet, a samurai was reporting to his superior the news sent back by the flag bearer on the warship in front.
The general of the Japanese vanguard army, Azumi Hirafu, asked: "What kind of warships are they? How many warships are there in total?"
"There are three warships in total, they are our Japanese warships. It was said earlier that they were Lord Park Ichida Raitsu and his men. It was also said earlier that the other side looked very vicious." said the samurai.
Azumi Hirafu frowned. Shouldn't Park Ichida Raitsu be in Baekje, helping Fuyu Feng to restore the country and seeking benefits for Japan at the same time? How could he appear in this vast ocean in such a vicious manner?
"Order the warship in front to send a team to see if the other side is really Park Ichida Raitsu. If so, let him come to see me."
"If not, attack immediately, capture the other side, interrogate him thoroughly, and pass on the matter to the rear army." Azumi Hirafu said.
"Hey!" The samurai took the order, stood up and left, and passed the order to the flag bearer, who then passed the order on.
Soon, the warship in front sent a team to investigate. After confirming that it was Park Ichida Raitsu, they took them back to the fleet and took Park Ichida Raitsu and others to meet Azumi Hirafu.
"Park Ichi-kun, why are you in such a mess? Aren't you supposed to be in Baekje helping His Majesty the King to defend Baekje?"
"Why are you here? What's the situation in Baekje now? Have you lost Baekje?" Azumi Hirafu questioned.
"Baekje has been captured by the Tang army. Even the Silla city that was conquered by our army was taken back by them. I had no choice but to escape with Buyeo Poong and seek help."
"I failed to complete the important task entrusted by the king this time. I am guilty and willing to die to atone for my sin!" Park Ichida Laijin said. "
Baka! Death can't solve the problem. Baekje plays a huge role in my king's great plan. It must be recaptured."
"Although you didn't defend Baekje this time and wait for us to come, you can't atone for your sin even if you die ten thousand times, but you saved Buyeo Poong, which is a great achievement."
"Now I give you a chance to make up for your mistake. I order you to be the vanguard and march to Baekgangkou. We will be there soon." Azumi Hirafu said.
As long as Buyeo Feng is still in their hands, they can legitimately continue to send troops to help Buyeo Feng recover Baekje.
"Hi!" Park Ichida Laijin saluted.
Azumi Hirafu went to see Buyeo Yutaka, comforted him, and said that he would definitely take back Baekje for him, and asked him not to worry.
