Chapter 672 I can't think of a title, so let's just go down
Above the vast sea, a huge fleet of ships is anchored under the gentle lapping of the waves.
Lu Yao sat on the top deck of the flagship, enjoying a rare relaxation. It's been a few days since he's been here. From here, sail east for three days to Wakasa Bay.
Kyoto is a landlocked city, and Wakasa Bay is the nearest bay. Landing here will be the fastest way to get to Kyoto.
In the past three days, in addition to enjoying the rare relaxation, Lu Yao has basically been exchanging private messages with Sumitomo Ningning. Through this woman, he got all the information he wanted to know.
Watanabe Yao became the bait, and the various consortia urgently summoned an army to come to the rescue, first, to ensure the smooth operation of Shangluo, and secondly, to do everything possible to find Lu Yao's whereabouts, so as not to be caught off guard.
Takeda Shingen and other NPC daimyo did not disappoint him, and in the early days, he surrounded the points to send reinforcements, and he ate a large number of soldiers and horses from various consortia, and his military achievements were outstanding, but his good luck came to an end. Sumitomo Nene successfully took this opportunity to ascend to the throne, mastered the military power, and successfully rescued Watanabe Yao, and the various families met together and re-raised the army in Shangluo.
Sumitomo Nene naturally will not reveal his whereabouts. And Watanabe Yao also tried his best to hide his whereabouts. With the intentional cooperation of Sumitomo Nene Ningning, Iwasaki Yuta and other representatives of various consortiums believed Watanabe Yao's explanation, thinking that he was really raising soldiers and horses in the rear and actively completing Kamiro.
In the face of a steady stream of reinforcements from various consortia, Takeda Shingen and other daimyo did not dare to act rashly, so that Watanabe Yao Shun smoothly crossed the Mino Plain and entered the region. And here, it is the world of various foundations, and the journey is smooth, and it only takes half a month to reach Kyoto.
Even so, the outcome of the battle between Dongying players and NPCs was enough to satisfy him.
Relying on the divine fire flying crow and dragon cannon he provided, Takeda Shingen lived up to his prestige in Toei, fully demonstrated his strength to compete with the sixth heavenly demon king Oda Nobunaga, and fully exerted the ability of Shibata Katsuya and others, swallowing reinforcements one by one, forcing various consortia to send troops to rescue again and again.
This is also the reason why Takeda Shingen had no choice but to withdraw his troops.
It wasn't a day or two for the various consortia to deal with NPCs, and a large number of ninjas were sent to assassinate them, and at the same time, the army hurried to successfully rendezvous with Watanabe Yao before Takeda Shingen pulled out his hand.
Although this battle is anticlimactic, it has also won a lot.
A total of millions of elites from various consortia died in the Meinong Plain, which are all elite soldiers trained by each family, not ordinary cannon fodder. There are countless other types of grain and grass, and it is said that grain mixed with soil can be seen on the ground throughout the Mino Plain.
When Lu Yao heard Sumitomo Ningning say this, he just smiled and took it as a joke. However, one thing is certain, the entire Mino Plain has indeed become a battlefield, and the soldiers and horses of various daimyo occupy advantageous positions, and various ambushes have achieved quite brilliant results.
Retracting his thoughts, Lu Yao groaned.
In front of you is Wakasa Bay, just a stone's throw from Kyoto. Watanabe Yao and his army have already entered the region, and they will be able to reach Kyoto in half a month.
So here's the problem.
Should you take the risk of leading your troops to Kyoto and rendezvous with Watanabe Yao?
Lu Yao was a little entangled.
From the beginning, he didn't plan to really go to Luo, but the current situation is quite ideal, and with the full assistance of various consortia, the operation is going well, and he will soon be able to go head-to-head with Toyotomi Hideyoshi. And Toyotomi Hideyoshi didn't seem to know that someone was going to go to Luo, so he cowered in Kyoto without saying a word.
It's a bit weird.
Lu Yao's heart was about to move, and he had an urge to immediately lead his troops to Kyoto to find out. But thinking of such a South China Sea fleet beside him, he hesitated again.
At this moment, the low sound of the bull's horn sounded. Lu Yao raised his eyebrows, and Huo Di got up. This is the sound of a warning horn, indicating that a ship is approaching this direction. The strange thing is that this is already considered an open sea, and even if the Dongying NPC goes out to sea to fish, it will never come to such a far place.
Soon Zhou Yu hurriedly walked to the top deck, saw Lu Yao hugging his fists and said: "My lord, Toyotomi Hideyoshi has come to envoy, and the last general has invited him to the ship." How to deal with it, please also leave it to the lord to decide. ”
"Toyotomi Hideyoshi is coming?" Lu Yao couldn't believe his ears. How did that old monkey figure out that I was here?
Zhou Yu also frowned at the moment and was silent. He didn't figure out how his fleet sneaked around to this sea area, but people knew it clearly, which was embarrassing.
"Bring it to the king." Lu Yao was silent for a moment, and then ordered.
Zhou Yu was ordered to retreat, and Mo returned to the top deck with a Dongying NPC about half an hour later.
Lu Yao's eyes swept and he quickly looked at this Dongying NPC. If you want to say that you know, he definitely doesn't know. In his previous life, he focused on Huaxia District, and the rest of his time was spent part-time, where could he care about studying the famous generals in Dongying District. However, seeing that this NPC was elegant in his gestures, he could also guess that this person's origin was not simple.
"The retainer of the Toyotomi clan, Shigeharu Takenaka, has seen His Royal Highness King Zhuya." Shigeharu Takenaka greeted Lu Yao with Chinese etiquette.
Dongying has been studying in China since ancient times, but it has surpassed China in modern times. The game also faithfully copied the setting of that period in history. Shigeharu Takenaka is well versed in Chinese culture.
"You're Shigeharu Takenaka?" Lu Yao's eyes widened.
Shigeharu Takenaka is quite famous, known as Zhuge Liang of Dongying, resourceful, and is an important minister under Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and has made many meritorious contributions. He didn't expect Toyotomi Hideyoshi to send such a top famous general.
"Exactly down there." Shigeji Takenaka smiled reservedly and hung his head very modestly.
"Did you guess that this king is here?" Lu Yao suddenly asked again.
Shigeharu Takenaka smiled faintly and acquiesced to Lu Yao's guess.
"How did you guess that this king is here?" Lu Yao's expression slowed down and asked with a smile.
"The whereabouts of the prince are not difficult to guess." Shigeharu Takenaka smiled faintly and said: "A few days ago, in the battle of the Mino Plain, the prince's unique weapon, the Divine Fire Flying Crow, appeared, announcing that the prince was coming to Dongying. Although Lord Taige did not say it explicitly, he was found in the next step, confirming that the prince had been in Dongying for a long time. It's that inhuman Koji Inagawa. Since the prince has raised troops to go to Luo, it is impossible to attack the strength of the other with his own shortcomings. And Kyoto is adjacent to Wakasa Bay, where is the prince if he is not here? ”
Lu Yao was silent for a long time, and said faintly: "Speak well." ”
Listening to Takenaka Shigeji's mouth full of ancient texts, he said that it hurts, but this speculation is not wrong and reasonable. It's just that he was too curious and wanted to get closer to enjoy the battle between Dongying players and NPCs, but he was guessed by others.
Shigeharu Takenaka: "......"
Lu Yao didn't wait for Shigeji Takenaka to refute, and went straight to the point and broke the last layer of window paper: "Toyotomi Hideyoshi sent you as an envoy, what is the purpose?" ”
