Chapter 619: Chasing Xiaosong

Under the cover of night, watching the attack of the Tang army, Li Zheng was certain in his heart. As for the fate of Japan, the fate of these five or six million Japanese people, Li Zheng had already decided for them.

I'm not kidding, everything is ready.

The attack continued.

Li Zheng doesn't need to do this personally.

Perhaps the war will be over by tomorrow morning.

time flies.

The Tang army rushed into Edo, the capital of Japan.

The army suddenly launched an attack and entered the city to kill people crazily. The Japanese army suffered heavy losses under the attack of the Tang Dynasty's powerful cannons and had no formation at all, but their numbers were still not small.

As soon as the Tang army entered the city, they started killing the Japanese, killing them crazily.

For the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, it was still the same as before to kill the enemies and make meritorious deeds, but they did not know that every time they killed a Japanese, they were avenging their fellow countrymen in another world.

The end of today.

It is to solve the Japanese threat and prevent them from raising their heads again.

Inside the Japanese Imperial Palace.

"how's it going?"

Hou Xiaosong looked at the courtiers in the hall with great horror and asked.

Even in the imperial palace which had not yet fallen, the occasional explosions and bombardments made Go Komatsu and his ministers tremble with fear.

"His Majesty."

"We sent out ten rounds of envoys, and all of them were killed by the Tang army. They are obviously not prepared to negotiate peace."

"In my opinion."

"Retreat, retreat immediately."

"We retreated to another island under cover of night. There was no other way."

Doctor Sanben said in great fear.

For him, the main thing is to save his life.

"I second the proposal."

"The Tang army is attacking with artillery and doesn't care about any civilian casualties in Japan. Moreover, they don't accept surrender at all. We have no choice but to retreat." Inukai Shio said hurriedly.

At this moment, he completely understood.

The Tang Dynasty today is no longer the Tang Dynasty they once knew.

The Tang Dynasty today has no mercy on them, only killing.

"Retreat, retreat immediately."

Hou Xiaosong nodded repeatedly. At this moment, his face was pale and he just wanted to save his life from the Tang Dynasty’s army.

"My dear ministers, hurry up, we will evacuate from the back city gate immediately."

"Retreat under the cover of night."

Later, Xiaosong stood up and shouted at the meeting.

Afterwards, he ran towards the side hall, looking very embarrassed.

"Protect Your Majesty."

"withdraw."

The Japanese ministers who were originally in the hall also moved, quickly chasing after Hou Xiaosong and running out for their lives.

What protection? I just want to save my life.

Time passes gradually.

One night passed quickly.

There were corpses everywhere in Edo Castle.

Except for a few civilians who were accidentally injured by cannons, most of the bodies were those of Japanese soldiers. The imperial decree was that no one should be left alive. As long as they were soldiers, they would be killed. Even if they were slaves, they were not qualified to be.

In front of the Japanese Imperial Palace.

The corpses at the entrance had been cleared away by the Tang Dynasty soldiers.

Li Zheng walked slowly.

Zhao Ming immediately came with the strongest guards in the army and said, "Your Majesty, the palace has been cleared. The Japanese emperor has fled, and he has taken all his officials with him."

"From the interrogation of the servants in the palace, we learned that they escaped at midnight last night, and I'm afraid they are already more than ten miles away now."

Hear this.

Li Zheng nodded without any surprise, "They ran away. This is their character. They are greedy for life and afraid of death. They are useless people."

"Well, it looks like we have to use the pterosaurs."

Zhao Ming immediately said: "I will fight and bring back all those who have escaped."

"Su Dingfang." Li Zheng was not in a hurry, but shouted loudly.

"The minister is here."

Su Dingfang immediately ran over quickly.

"Gather all the desperate people in this Japanese capital."

"Wait until I come back."

Li Zheng said in a deep voice.

"I accept the decree."

Although he didn't know Li Zheng's purpose, as a subject all he had to do was to obey his orders.

"Take fifty personal guards and let me go."

Li Zheng said to Zhao Mingdao.

Then waved his hand.

The pterosaur fell from the sky and landed in front of Li Zheng.

After so many years, Li Zheng has been training the pterosaur with all his strength. Although in terms of strength level, it is only equivalent to the peak of the Grandmaster and has reached the limit of this world, but under Li Zheng's training, this pterosaur has only reached adulthood. Its huge body is like the giant dragon in Western mythology, with dragon horns on its head, and seventy to eighty people can stand on its back.

About forty miles away from Jianghu, this small island of Wakoku is connected to another small island.

"His Majesty."

"We have reached the entrance to Honshu Island. As long as we cross it and mix gunpowder to blow up the road, we will definitely be able to stop the Tang army."

Looking at Honshu Island in front of him, Inukai Shio said excitedly.

"Let's go, hurry up."

"There's no telling when the Tang army will catch up with us."

On a carriage, Hou Xiaosong looked back with great worry, then hurriedly urged loudly.

He was really scared.

Looking at those people who escaped from the Japanese capital, they were all high-ranking officials of Japan. In times of national crisis, this kind of people were the most likely to run away. It was extremely ridiculous.

Although he escaped in a hurry yesterday, Hou Xiaosong still brought with him several thousand guards, as well as his civil and military officials.

The group of people was huge, estimated to be around five to six thousand people.

After all, they were escaping, so Tang's speed was very fast, no less than the marching speed of the Tang Dynasty army.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured."

"We have been away for so long. Even if the Tang army is faster, they can't catch up. What's more, there are so many brave warriors in Edo who are willing to fight to the end for the empire." Doctor Sanben said shamelessly.

"Ugh."

"What a pity for these warriors."

"One day, I will avenge them." Hou Xiaosong also pretended to sigh.

But that's it.

A burst of noise suddenly passed over their heads.

The sudden dark shadow blocked out the sunlight for many people.

This also made many fleeing Japanese raise their heads.

"what is that?"

into the eye.

A huge beast came into their sight.

Seeing this scene, all the Japanese looked puzzled.

But the next moment.

The giant beast attacked quickly, and soon it flew over their heads and landed on the ground in front of them.

As the giant beast landed.

Dozens of people wearing Tang Dynasty armor jumped down directly from above.

Among them stood a man wearing golden armor, displaying infinite majesty.

"Hou Komatsu."

"You guys ran away pretty fast?"

"If I didn't have a divine beast, I really wouldn't be able to catch up with you."

Li Zheng stood on the pterosaur and looked at the fleeing Japanese with a sneer.

"Tang...Emperor Tang!"

Hou Xiaosong raised his head and looked at Li Zheng on the pterosaur with horror in his eyes.

He had met Li Shimin, the Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, and had even gone to meet him in person once before he ruled Japan. However, he was a complete stranger to Li Zheng.
