Chapter 805: Internal Discord
Bei Mihu turned around and said to Zhou Tai: "Xiao Wang brought wine and meat to the three armies, and asked the general not to shirk!" ”
Zhou Tai hesitated a little, and thanked him with a fist.
Himiko had planned to stay here for a few days, but the next day he had to leave, because of the urgent news from the front, and the Northern Coalition Army once again attacked with a much more fierce attack than before.
After receiving the summons from the three hearts, the front-line general of the coalition army realized that the war should not drag on any longer, so he ordered all the troops under his command to storm the defense line of Yamatai, which seemed to be shaky in this turbulent sea.
In the following days of fighting, the Yamatai defense line was in danger one after another, and the battle was very fierce, and both sides fought to the death.
On the fourth day, at the same time as the 50,000 foot soldiers of the Second Army of the Wei Army landed on Honshu Island, the frontal defense line of Yamatai was finally broken, but at this time, the northern coalition army had also reached the end of the crossbow.
The coalition forces fought all the way to the city of Yamatai and started a great battle with the Yamatai people who retreated to Yamatai.
At the end of the day, both sides suffered heavy casualties, but the coalition forces still did not capture the castle of Yamadai, and at this time, the commander of the coalition forces, Kameda Isshin, received very bad news that the Wei army had arrived on the island of Honshu.
Kameda wouldn't have paid much attention to this information if he had received this information before the Battle of Mutsu, but now he felt a heavy pressure from the west.
"General, are we retreating?" The general asked.
Kameda paced back and forth in the tent with his hands behind his back, the sake being burned on the side was already tumbling, but no one paid attention to it.
Kameda stopped suddenly. Said categorically: "According to intelligence, it will take three days for the Wei army to arrive at the battlefield at the earliest!" And we only need one day to take Yamatai Castle! Ben decided to continue the siege! ”
"Yes. Checkmate! ”
That night, the afterglow of the setting sun was everywhere. The battle flag is broken like a forest, the smoke lingers, and the eyes are full of tragic scenes, but the people of Yamatai have reached the end of the crossbow.
Himiko stood alone on the steps in front of the palace, looking at the fading blood-red sky, his brows furrowed, and his beautiful face covered with gloomy clouds.
The captain of the guard, Motojiro Koyama, hurriedly came to Himiko's face, "Queen, the soldiers of the West Camp are rebelling!" ”
Himiko was taken aback, "What? What's going on now?
"It has been pacified by the general. However, at present, the morale of the army in the city is extremely unstable, and the general does not dare to leave the barracks one step! Little Mimoto Jiro's face was full of worry.
Himiko couldn't help but sigh and sighed, "I can't imagine that our Yamatai Kingdom will be destroyed so soon!" ”
Kneeling on the steps with a thud, Himi cried to the heavens and pleaded: Heavens! Help us! ”
Seeing this scene, Jiro Komimoto and the guards around him couldn't help but feel desperate.
Perhaps it was the heavens that heard the queen's call, and a herald hurried to Himiko's face, with an excited look on his face, "Queen, good." Good news! Da Wei, Da Wei's flying pigeon biography! With that, the herald presented a letter to Himiko
Himihu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly took the herald from the herald's hand. I took a quick look at it.
Himiko couldn't help but be alarmed, and said loudly, "Great! That's great! They're finally here! ”
Then he turned his head and commanded Xiao Sanyuan Erlang: "Immediately send a message to everyone in the city, the army of the Kingdom is only one day's journey from here!" Just stand up to the day. We're saved! ”
Xiao Sanyuan Erlang was stunned for a moment, and said with a look of surprise and disbelief: "The summons only landed yesterday. Today is only one day away! How can it be so fast? ”
"Don't think so much! Go for the arraignment! Himiko urged.
"Yes!" Xiao Sanyuan Erlang promised and immediately retreated.
Himiko bowed to the sky again. He said excitedly: "Thank you! Thank you! ”
At the same time, Kameda Isshin, the commander of the coalition forces, also received information from the scouts.
Kameda was taken aback, and decided categorically that the entire army would temporarily abandon the attack on Yamatai Castle and withdraw to the line of the Qingchuan Mountains.
Kameda's subordinates were puzzled by this decision, and at the same time disagreed.
"General, in just one day, we can take the city in front of us, I don't think we should retreat at this time! Even if the army of Wei is about to arrive! ”
A subordinate general objected, this person's name is Dongchuan Zhenyi, a warrior of a small country in the north of Fuso, the people of this country have always been known for their courage and good fighting, and Dongchuan Zhenyi is ranked seventh among the Ten Heavenly Demon Kings of the Coalition Army, and he has always been unconvinced by the Sixth Heaven Demon King Inoue Ke, who is ranked in front of him and has now become a dead ghost.
Another general sneered: "The brave and good Sixth Day Demon King Inoue Ke was also cut in two by the Wei General in Mutsu, and the Seventh Day Demon King should not be too underestimated!" ”
This person's name is Tanaka Isshin, and he is a branch of one of the royal families in the coalition army, although his stature and reputation are not as good as those of Dongchuan Zhenyi, but because he has read a few books on Zhuxia, he seems to be quite resourceful here.
Dongchuan Zhen took a step forward, pointed at Tanaka Yixin's nose and scolded: "Yaga, you guy who can only talk about it, you are not qualified to speak in front of me!" ”
Tanaka is not at all in the heart of Higashikawa Zhenichi, even if he wants to ridicule each other.
"Enough!" Kameda Isshin, who was the main general, suddenly roared.
The two of them couldn't help but feel a pang in their hearts, and they were busy bowing their heads.
Kameda glanced at the two of them and said in a deep voice to the generals: "You can say what you think, but if you want to quarrel, get out of here!" ”
The generals responded, and Kameda Isshin cast his eyes on Tanaka Isshin's face and asked in a deep voice, "Higashikawa-kun, why do you think we shouldn't retreat?" ”
Dongchuan Town once Kameda performed a military salute, a very interesting military salute, which was basically the same as the military salute of the Qin State during the Warring States Period, but it was slightly changed, mixed with some shadows of Fusang, so it also became nondescript.
Dongchuan Zhenyi said: "General, we have more than 100,000 troops here, and the Wei army is only 50,000 or 60,000, we can completely block them on the one hand and continue to attack Yamatai at the same time!" ”
Kameda frowned and nodded.
When Higashikawa saw that his opinion was affirmed, he couldn't help but be shocked, and continued: "The battle of Mutsu not long ago doesn't mean anything! There is absolutely no need for us to use that battle as a basis for judging the combat effectiveness of the Wei army! The last general is willing to lead 30,000 warriors to stop the Wei army! ”
There was a lot of discussion in the big tent, although everyone thought that what Dongchuan Zhenyi said was very reasonable, but they also thought that his request was too crazy! (To be continued.) )
