Chapter 1180: Sorrow
Although Chen Jisheng made a big mistake, in the end, Mao Wenlong still did not punish him, compared to his fault. Chen Jisheng and his pioneer battalion have made countless meritorious contributions in all the battles of the Wa Kingdom this time. If Mao Wenlong catches him for these mistakes and punishes him, I am afraid that other soldiers in the army will be cold.
Besides, Mao Wenlong never thought about punishing Chen Jisheng in his heart, and under the persuasion of his generals, Mao Wenlong also pushed the boat to let Chen Jisheng go.
But at the same time, Mao Wenlong also gave Chen Jisheng a harsh warning, asking him to remember the lesson this time for a long time. If he is said to have committed another crime in the future, he will be punished for both crimes together, and he will not be tolerated.
Chen Jisheng didn't care about Mao Wenlong's threat, but he was warm in his heart, knowing that Mao Wenlong actually cared about himself very much in his heart. Chen Jisheng still has nothing to be satisfied with, he has already smiled in his heart. On the surface, he still has to show a look of admitting his mistakes, and his heart and facial expression are completely inconsistent, which makes Chen Jisheng look weird at the moment.
Mao Wenlong naturally knew that Chen Jisheng was careful, but he didn't break it, and directly waved Chen Jisheng back. Mao Wenlong began to think about the next thing.
All the wounded of the Dongjiang Army had been treated, but the hundreds of people in Qingfeng were not pursued by the Japanese and returned to Heiankyo safely. Of the dozens of injured people who followed Chen Jisheng, only two could not be treated and died, and the rest were all life-free.
In the study, in front of Mao Wenlong's desk was a hand-drawn map of the Wa Kingdom, which was found from the imperial city. It's a more comprehensive one, and all the towns are depicted in great detail.
At present, most of the Japanese kingdom is under the control of the Dongjiang Army, but one place has not yet been taken. That is Tokyo, a place where all the defeated troops of the Japanese have been assembled at present, according to the reconnaissance of the Dongjiang Army. At present, there are no less than 100,000 Japanese troops in Tokyo, and with such a huge number, with only the current 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers and horses of the Dongjiang Army, there is no way to crusade against Tokyo in any way.
Mao Wenlong was very helpless about this, the strength of the Dongjiang Army was less than 40,000, and this less than 40,000 troops were divided into three places for defense. In this way, the number of soldiers and soldiers that the Dongjiang Army can really fight is at best 10,000 soldiers and horses.
10,000 soldiers and horses wanted to attack the Japanese in Tokyo, and the enemy army was at least 100,000 soldiers and horses, which was ten times the number of the Dongjiang army. The disparity of tenfold strength was originally an insurmountable chasm, and now the Dongjiang army was still the one who had to attack the city, which made things even more impossible.
Mao Wenlong frowned and was silent, unable to think of how to take the last Tokyo of the Japanese Kingdom?
Chen Qiyue waited for a long time and didn't see Mao Wenlong speak, he hesitated for a while, took two steps forward and walked to Mao Wenlong's side, stretched his neck and looked at the map on the table, Chen Qiyue asked in a low voice: "Is the general army thinking about how to attack Tokyo?" ”
Mao Wenlong retracted his flying thoughts, looked at Chen Qiyue and nodded, and said, "Tokyo is now the last city of the Japanese Kingdom, and there are currently at least 100,000 troops stationed there. It is completely impossible to attack with the amount of strength we have at present. ”
Chen Qiyu smiled and said: "Chief soldier, it is undeniable that we lack soldiers and horses at present, and it is impossible to think of Da Ming to dispatch again." But in the case of North Korea, the general army might as well give it a try. ”
Mao Wenlong suddenly patted his head, and said with a smile: "I forgot about North Korea." ”
It has been more than two months since the DPRK completely calmed down. Although North Korea, which had just quelled the war, could not mobilize too many troops, it should be no problem if Mao Wenlong opened his mouth to ask the king of Korea for tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.
Thinking of this, Mao Wenlong suddenly became excited, although he knew that the North Korean army must be inferior to the Japanese invaders. But Mao Wenlong never thought of relying on North Korean soldiers on the battlefield. The Korean soldiers could be used to garrison various cities, so that the Dongjiang Army could draw at least 20,000 soldiers and horses.
With 30,000 Dongjiang troops as the base, plus the assistance of hot air balloons, Mao Wenlong was completely sure that the Dongjiang army could fight against the Japanese army.
"Qi Yu, send someone to North Korea immediately, and I'll write a letter now." Mao Wenlong commanded, and then sat back in his chair and began to write a letter seriously.
After Chen Qiyue nodded yes, he immediately ordered someone to go down to arrange candidates for North Korea. And he has been waiting by Mao Wenlong's side, waiting for Mao Wenlong to finish writing the letter.
Mao Wenlong didn't let Chen Qiyu wait too long, and after a while, he wrote the letter and handed it to Chen Qiyu. The latter, without a moment's delay, took the letter and left.
If you want to borrow troops from the North Korean side, then it will definitely not be a short time for the North Korean army to arrive. During this period, the Dongjiang Army was unable to resume the war against the Japanese invaders. After Mao Wenlong ordered all the cities to take more precautions, he waited quietly.
In Tokyo, the emperor was not as calm as Mao Wenlong, although the Dongjiang army was currently sitting on more than 100,000 soldiers and horses. But how much water is in it, the emperor himself knows.
It is said that there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, but in fact, half of them are temporarily recruited people, and once these people really go to the battlefield, they have almost no combat power to speak of. In the event of defeat, it is highly likely that these recruits will drag down the veterans.
For this reason, the emperor did not hesitate to order that these temporary recruits should be trained as soon as possible. It's ridiculous, but it's better than doing nothing.
Worried about the new soldiers, the emperor began to worry about when the Dongjiang Army would come to attack Tokyo.
More than a dozen Japanese generals stood at the emperor's head at this moment, looking at the emperor with an anxious look, but they never said a word.
After exchanging glances with his general, Kusao stepped forward and bent down and said, "Emperor, why are you anxious?" ”
The Emperor said coldly: "Now that our recruits have just started training, if the Dongjiang Army comes over at this time, how sure do you think we can resist the attack of the Dongjiang Army?" ”
Cao Xiong pondered for a moment and replied indifferently: "The emperor is too worried, his subordinates have already found out before that the number of soldiers and horses in the Dongjiang Army is limited, and it will not exceed 50,000 at most. ”
"Fifty thousand...... Do you think the 50,000 Dongjiang Army is not terrible? The Emperor's voice suddenly took on a chill.
"Emperor, in fact, the number of 50,000 soldiers and horses of the Dongjiang Army needs to be discounted by at least half. The subordinates have sent people to check, and the Dongjiang army has 10,000 defenders in each of the cities it has defeated. In other words, at present, the Dongjiang Army remaining in the three places has to remove at least 30,000 soldiers and horses, and they can only mobilize 20,000 soldiers and horses to attack. Kusuo explained with a chuckle.
