Chapter 1196: Bad News
Overnight, the Dongjiang Army and the Japanese Invaders started a full-scale battle, and in the city of Tokyo, the dark guard camp began to clean up all the hidden forbearance in the city after dawn, under the leadership of Adou.
As it turned out, Adou's decision was right, and after dawn, all the forbearance was exposed to the sun, and they had no cover for the night. Completely exposed to the noses of the Dongjiang Army, as a result, the number of attacks on the Secret Guard was greatly reduced.
For a whole day, the 3,000 Dark Guard battalion ran all over the city, killing all the hidden forbearances inside. After the incident, more than 100 people were killed and wounded in the Secret Guard Battalion, while more than 400 people were killed in the Hidden Guard.
After clearing all forbearance, Tokyo City can really be calmed down, and Chen Qiyu is still in a frantic hurry. During this period, Chen Qiyue had already learned that Chen Jisheng was leading 3,000 soldiers of the pioneer battalion to fight with more than 10,000 Japanese soldiers.
After learning such news, Chen Qi suddenly became more impatient, he was afraid that if he went slowly, Chen Jisheng and the others would repeat the same mistakes!
But the situation was not as bad as Chen Qiyue expected, and Chen Jisheng used harassment guerrilla tactics. He didn't really confront the Japanese army head-on, and every time he attacked, he always hit and run, and so repeatedly did not give the Japanese army any respite.
Three days later, Mao Wenlong learned that Chen Jisheng and the others were safe and sound, and they still held more than 10,000 Japanese soldiers. He was very satisfied with this, and Chen Qiyu would arrive at Chen Jisheng to join them on the same day. With the addition of these 30,000 soldiers and horses, Chen Jisheng and them will definitely be fine.
Mao Wenlong was in a good mood, but it didn't take long for Mao Wenlong to break his good mood with an urgent report sent by the messenger.
The letter was sent from Nagasaki, and Mao Wenlong learned from the letter that Nagasaki Prefecture was being attacked by the Japanese army at this moment. And the Korean defenders in Nagasaki Prefecture actually had a tendency to be unable to hold on.
In the letter, Kim Jong-ri asked Mao Wenlong to immediately send troops to the rescue, and Mao Wenlong was very surprised by this. In his guess, the defenders of Nagasaki would not be so inexorably fighting?
Full of confusion, Mao Wenlong continued to read the letter, and finally realized that it was not that the Korean army was too incompetent, but that the number of Japanese troops attacking Nagasaki was far greater than expected.
According to Kim Jong-ri's description, the Japanese army numbered in the tens of thousands, that is, several times the strength of the North Korean army. That's it, the Japanese army actually fought a lifeless way, and the goal was very clear, that is, to break the city no matter what, and then seize the warships in the port.
Mao Wenlong slapped the letter on the table and said in a dark voice: "Damn the Japanese robbers, how many soldiers and horses did they escape from Tokyo?" ”
Haoda and Haoxiao saw that Mao Wenlong was angry, and neither of them dared to talk casually. After glancing at each other, the two bowed their heads and fell silent.
Mao Wenlong saw that there were only two people in the house, and he was suddenly a little short of breath, and the generals in the army went outside to search for the Japanese invaders. Although the forbearance of the assassins has been cleared out, among the more than 40,000 Japanese prisoners, it is difficult to guarantee that some forbearance will not be mixed in. Therefore, for the sake of safety, the Dongjiang Army still had to check one by one.
The inventory of more than 40,000 Japanese prisoners was a very troublesome matter, but for the sake of safety, the Dongjiang army could only grit its teeth and do it.
Everyone is busy, including Adou, and now only Haoda and Haoxiao are left by Mao Wenlong's side. He wanted to talk to someone about Nagasaki, but there was no one to discuss.
After pondering for a while, Mao Wenlong whispered to Haoda: "Go and find Adou immediately." ”
After saying yes, he turned and left.
After a long time, I saw him and Adou coming in a hurry. Adou was sweating profusely at the moment, obviously he must have been working before he came.
"Commander!" Adou clasped his fists and saluted.
"Did reinforcements from Heiankyo and Hiroshima Prefecture arrive in Nagasaki Prefecture?" Mao Wenlong didn't say a word, and directly asked about the reinforcements.
Adou was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "The subordinates don't know yet, wait for me to go and inquire, and then reply to the chief soldier." ”
Mao Wenlong nodded and said yes, and Adou then hugged his fists and saluted and left in a hurry.
The office of the dark guard camp had already been moved to the mansion, so Adou didn't go for long, and he quickly turned back.
"Chief soldier, my subordinates have already asked, and the reinforcements from the two places will arrive in Nagasaki in less than a day."
Adou paused for a moment before continuing, "Is there an accident on the Nagasaki side?" ”
Mao Wenlong sighed lightly and told Adou about the current situation in Nagasaki before he said: "The number of soldiers and horses that escaped from the Japanese army completely exceeded our expectations. Now he is frantically attacking Nagasaki Castle, hoping that Kim Jong-ri will not disappoint the general army and will be able to hold out until reinforcements arrive. ”
Adou hesitated and answered: "The Japanese army actually escaped so many soldiers and horses, this is indeed unexpected. Chief soldier, is there any latest news from Brother Chen Jisheng? ”
What is known so far is that the Japanese army entangled by Chen Jisheng has more than 10,000 soldiers and horses. And Chen Qiyu is estimated to have joined forces with Chen Jisheng and fought against the Japanese army together.
"No news has been sent yet, but Chen Qiyue has gone to the rescue, and I believe there will be nothing wrong." Mao Wenlong frowned, with a hint of uncertainty in his tone.
After hearing this, Adou also fell silent. Now things have become like this, far water can't save near fire, everything can only depend on the will of God.
Mao Wenlong naturally knew that even if he wanted to mobilize troops to Nagasaki now, it would be too late. As Adou thought, everything can only depend on the will of God.
But if he really didn't do anything, Mao Wenlong was obviously uneasy. After pondering for a moment, he opened his mouth and said, "Adou, immediately gather all the hot air balloons in the army, and set off for Nagasaki to help when you are ready, without delay." ”
Adou frowned, opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back, and changed his words: "Yes, Chief Soldier!" ”
After seeing Adou leave, Mao Wenlong was still very uneasy in his heart, after all, the situation outside could not be known in time. In particular, whether Nagasaki can hold on and prevent the Japanese army from having the opportunity to escape to the sea is related to the ultimate success or failure of the Dongjiang Army.
Mao Wenlong was busy going to support, while Chen Jisheng was already killing. After joining forces with Chen Qiyu's 30,000 soldiers and horses, Chen Jisheng's pioneer battalion did not have any worries and was happy.
The military advisor of the Japanese Army, seeing that the defeat of the Japanese Army was a foregone conclusion, there was no sadness in his heart. When he promised the emperor to stay behind and break the queen, he had already expected this to be the end. And now that this ending is a few days late, he has nothing to complain about.
