Chapter 776: Unexpected Surprise
"Yes! Only when both the Silla Kingdom and the Japanese Kingdom are defeated, we have a chance to profit, and the current situation, both countries are unwilling to fight, if there is a real truce, we can only retreat to the Wufeng Islands! ”
This is the result that Zhen Qian is most unwilling to see, but the plot obviously will not proceed according to his own design, no one is a god, even if Zhen Qian is a traverser.
For such a result, Zhen Jiu was obviously unwilling and unwilling to accept it, "Don't we have any other way?" ”
"No, unless one side goes crazy and has to decide the winner, the current situation, neither Silla nor the Wa State will be able to get any benefits!" Zhen Qian lost interest in talking a little, thinking that the surrender of the Japanese army on Shikoku Island would put Fujiwara Nakamaro in a difficult situation, but he didn't expect that the Shaoer Dongshang coalition army was so vulnerable and the perfect opportunity was lost.
I'm afraid that Silla is also very upset about such a result!
In the following days, the Japanese army and the Silla army did not continue to fight, obviously there was some negotiation, Zhen Qian still continued to wait in Nagasaki Town, time passed in boredom, patience has gradually become helpless, the war may be like this, stop fighting, and when neither side can see victory, they will look for other solutions.
"Prepare, tomorrow we will return to the Five Peaks Islands and inform Yamamoto Fifty-six of Fengming Mountain, don't act rashly!"
"I really don't wait", Zhen Jiu was a little unwilling.
Zhen Qian knew that there would be no result if he waited, and once the negotiations between the two countries were over, it would be when Fujiwara Nakamaro sent troops to attack the Shaoer Dongshang coalition army, and the entire Saikaido would no longer have a foothold for the Japanese opposition.
"We have been in Nagasaki Town for a month, and the opposition of the Wa Kingdom is obviously not the opponent of Fujiwara Nakamaro, and the Silla Kingdom will not be stupid to fight with Fujiwara Nakamaro, do you think we still have a chance?"
Even if Silla occupies the entire Sekaido, it will be ten times better than the current situation of not dying or living, and if Fujiwara Nakamaro escapes this time and gives Fujiwara Nakamaro a chance to breathe, the fate of Silla will not be much better than that of the Wa State opposition!
However, the Silla Kingdom knew what it could do, and if it could not defeat the Japanese army of the Hohou Kingdom, everything would be in vain.
Zhen Gan's strength is still too weak, in this war of more than 100,000 people, he is destined to be a spectator and can't do anything, this feeling of powerlessness can completely crush Zhen Qian.
However, the confrontation between Silla and the Japanese army was not without any benefits to Zhen Qian and the Wufeng Islands, at least now Silla could not spare extra troops to attack the Wufeng Islands, giving the Wufeng Islands a chance to breathe.
The next day, Zhen Qian and his entourage quietly boarded the returning flyship and returned to the North Main Island in the evening of the same day.
Wang Lun did not ask Zhen Qian about the war in Xikaidao, but took out the list that Wei Jian brought back from the Liaohe Estuary this time and said: "Wei Jian did a good job this time, not only transported more than 3,000 people to Heiyu City, but also brought back more than 4,000 people, after a short rest in the Wufeng Islands, they have been sent to Yakushima Island and Tanegashima, this is the list of goods brought back by Wei Jian, there are a lot of them, most of them are goods in short supply in the Wufeng Islands!" ”
"Why did Wei Jian bring back so many people this time?"
Wang Lun sat opposite Zhen Qian, and said with a gloomy expression: "Last year, the situation in Hebei was very bad, there was a large number of displaced people, Qinhuangdao gathered thirty or forty thousand people, and there was almost no place to live, if you continue to leave these people on the island, it is easy to make trouble, Wei Jian gritted his teeth and brought some more people, there was no place to live in the cabin, so he lived on the deck of the ship, so he brought back a little more!" ”
Zhen Qian knew that there were some things Wang Lun didn't want to tell himself, according to the original estimate, after Wei Jian's fleet was full of goods, it would be good to be able to transport back more than 2,000 people.
"Properly arrange these people, their hardships are enough!" Zhen Qian forced himself not to think about these things, and looked down at the goods and quantities on the list, 60,000 cowhides, 200,000 cow tendons, 1,000 catties of bezoars, 5,000 barrels of fierce fire oil, and ...... war horses.
"And war horses? Monkey business......! ”
Wang Lun saw that Zhen Qian was a little angry, and hurriedly explained: "You can't blame Wei Jian for this matter, Zhen Er has more than 1,000 war horses that he transported to the mouth of the Liaohe River this time, all of them are high-quality horses, and Qinhuangdao doesn't need them, Wei Jian picked a hundred of the best war horses, and the rest can only be temporarily stored on Qinhuangdao, if the Wufeng Islands really don't need it, they will be transported to Hebei and other places to be sold!" ”
With such a mountainous terrain as the Wufeng Islands, war horses were not of much use at all, so Zhen Qian never considered buying horses from the north. As for the horses needed for the four-wheeled carriage, they were all horses of the Japanese kingdom, which were enough to be used as a means of transportation.
Transporting more than a hundred war horses, at least the space of two warships is wasted, and an extra thousand people can be transported to the Wufeng Islands, which makes Zhen Qian not angry!
Do War Horses Work?
War horses are basically useless in the Wufeng Islands, and they are useless in the Wufeng Islands, of course, if we want to conquer the Saikaido, the war horses are of great use, but the question is whether Zhen Qian has the strength to conquer the Saikaido now?
Since he can't fight in Xikaidao, why does Zhen Qian want these war horses now?
"Transporting all these war horses to Yakushima", Zhen Qian thought about it, it was a pity to keep these war horses in Yakushima, so he could only helplessly say: "Let the military camp select another thousand people, and establish a cavalry battalion on Yakushima!" The remaining 900 war horses on Qinhuangdao did not need to be sent to Hebei, so let Mr. Ke's shipyard rush to make two horse ships as soon as possible and transport all the war horses to Yakushima ....... ”
Zhen Qian is not short of people and soldiers who raise horses now, but training cavalry is a long process, if he really needs cavalry, he can transfer a thousand people from Black Domain City, basically it won't take long to form a cavalry, then it is as troublesome as now!
Zhen Qian's good mood was smoothed out by the extra hundred war horses, and this trip to Nagasaki Town did not meet expectations, and there was no place to vent in his heart, so he explained a few words to Wang Lun, and prepared to go to Kwai Ji to see his child.
Wang Lun saw that he was not interested in talking, and was about to leave, but suddenly thought of something and said: "Zhen Lang, there is a very strange thing, seven or eight days ago, there was a fleet of 200 Silla countries, starting from Iki Island and bypassing the Wufeng Islands, as if it was the ...... of Osumi Province ahead. ”
Zhen Qian stood up suddenly, jumped up from his chair all of a sudden, looked at Wang Lun with wide eyes, and said, "Really, there is really a fleet of Silla Kingdom going to Osumi Country!" ”
