Tang Dynasty: The poisonous scholar in the Eastern Palace, please abdicate and let the wise one take

Chapter 451: Point the sword at the Umayazaka Palace and mobilize troops to defend the king!

Umayazaka Palace.

Although it was late at night, the lights in and around the Umazaka Palace were unusually bright.

A soldier rode his horse and rushed over in a hurry, attracting the attention of many guards along the way.

"stop!"

"Sir, urgent report, the Tang navy is coming to attack us!"

"what?"

The guards who learned of this did not dare to be negligent in the slightest. After confirming the other party's identity, they immediately took him to the outside of Emperor Shu Ming's bedroom, but were stopped by the eunuch.

"what to do?"

"His Majesty the Emperor is resting. Aren't you afraid of losing your heads?"

"Eunuch, the Tang navy is coming, please inform His Majesty, otherwise it will be too late!"

"It's ridiculous. General Inuami Ota Kuwata led 20,000 elite soldiers to fight against the Tang navy. How could they easily break through the siege and kill here?"

"It's absolutely true, eunuch, please wake up His Majesty!"

"you……"

While the two sides were arguing, the voice of Emperor Shu Ming was heard from the palace, "What happened outside? Why is there so much noise?"

The eunuch glared at them and walked quickly into the bedroom, "Your Majesty, someone outside said that the Tang navy has arrived here."

"The Tang Navy?"

Emperor Shu Ming immediately sat up, his face full of astonishment, "It's only been a few days, how could the Tang navy have crossed the many defense lines and reached the palace?"

Father-in-law: "I don't know."

Emperor Shumei stood up after pondering, "Ask Nanba Yoshiba, Koizumi Sake, and Masanro to see me! Tell them to go to the study and wait for me."

"Yes."

The father-in-law ran out in a hurry.

After a stick of incense.

When Emperor Shu Ming arrived at the study, he saw that everyone was already waiting for him.

"Your Highness the Emperor."

"No gift."

Emperor Shu Ming waved his hand, glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "I just received news that the Tang navy has broken through the blockade of Inugami Ota and has come to our land!"

"Is this true or false? Why didn't I get any news about Inugami Ota's defeat?!"

Naniwa Yoshiji Hannigu: "Your Majesty, we just learned about this. I heard that it was because the Tang navy rushed in too fast, causing General Inuami Mita Kuwa to fail to return to defend in time, allowing them to land at Naniwa Tsu."

"Currently, a Tang army has been marching towards the palace, starting from Naniwazu. More than a dozen tribes and towns have been destroyed by the enemy."

Emperor Shu Ming frowned, was he not able to return to defense in time?

Allowing the opponent to find a loophole, break through their defense in the first place, and reach Naniwazu?
"Why didn't the garrison at Nanbazu send any news?"

"Your Majesty, Naniwa Tsu has fallen into the hands of the Tang Dynasty. Currently, there is no news about the Naniwa Tsu commander."

"Where's Inugami Mita-shovel?"

“It is still missing.”

"..."

Emperor Shu Ming was speechless.

Inuugami Ota Kuwa, a general commanding 20,000 troops, not only failed to stop the Tang Dynasty navy, but even his own whereabouts were unknown.

Lost General?

After a moment's hesitation, Emperor Shu Ming said in a deep voice: "How many troops can be mobilized at the imperial palace now?"

Nanba Yoshihachiu: "The current guard force of the palace is about 5,000 people. If we add the guards of the surrounding towns, we should be able to gather 10,000 elite soldiers!"

Koizumi Sake nodded and said, "We can conduct a blocking battle outside the palace and eliminate all the Tang troops that have landed outside the palace."

Hearing this, Emperor Shu Ming relaxed a little, but then he thought of something and said in a deep voice: "Don't underestimate the enemy!"

"Inugami Oden Kuwaba is in this situation because he underestimated his enemy!"

"Your Majesty taught you a lesson."

Masan Lü said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, we need to contact the surrounding towns and mobilize troops as soon as possible."

Emperor Shu Ming: "I'll leave this matter to you."

Masan Lü: "I obey your command."

"Without further delay, I will go to the surrounding towns to mobilize troops."

After Masangli finished speaking, he bowed and left.

The Tang Dynasty navy was about to attack the Daoxing Palace. If they moved slowly, Emperor Shu Ming would be dead before his troops could be gathered.

Emperor Shumei said in a deep voice: "Koizumi sake."

"The minister is here."

"I will leave my five thousand elite soldiers to you. I hope you will not let me down!"

"I accept your order!"

Koizumi Sake nodded heavily and left with the soldiers.

Emperor Shumei took a deep breath and looked at Naniwa Yoshihisa Hachigyu, "Send a message to General Kamimono Katana to let Soga Emishi go for now and lead the troops to defend the king!"

"Yes!"

……

The sky gradually brightened.

Su Dingfang and others, who had been dormant for a night, showed their fangs at this moment.

Led by five hundred cavalrymen, they charged all the way towards the palace.

Along the way, many Japanese civilians and soldiers had never seen such a scene before and were instantly defeated.

There were also many people shouting, saying things like the Tang Dynasty was invincible.

soon.

The leader, Liu Ke, encountered the first organized force that blocked their way.

Strictly speaking, the other party did not seem to be trying to stop them, but was heading towards the palace, but was caught up by them.

"kill!"

Liu Ke didn't waste any time and called upon the 500 elite soldiers around him to charge forward directly.

The fast galloping of the war horses did not affect the soldiers' shooting accuracy, because there was no need to aim, they just had to shoot.

The most important thing is that the distance between the two sides was very close, and the effectiveness of the musket was greatly reduced.

After a round of firing, all the muskets in their hands were thrown behind their backs, and sharp Mo Daos jumped into their palms.

"kill!"

"kill!"

The bravest of the two will win when they meet on a narrow road. The Japanese soldiers who went to the palace to provide assistance also realized that their enemy was coming.

After forcibly withstanding the first wave of musket fire, what followed was a rapid sprint of war horses.

If muskets can stop it, can war horses stop it?

Can't stop!
The formation of thousands of Japanese soldiers was instantly defeated by the charge of five hundred cavalrymen.

escape!
Run away like crazy!

The Japanese soldiers wished they had two more legs and did not dare to confront the enemy head-on.

Su Dingfang, who arrived with his troops later, waved his hand calmly after seeing the scene before him, and then divided out 500 men to kill the deserters directly.

Killing is not the goal; destroying the other party's will to resist is the goal.

When Su Dingfang saw this organized group of Japanese soldiers appearing on their way to the palace, he already had a plan in mind.

It was simply that Emperor Shu Ming had already received the news and had dispatched troops in advance, preparing to stop them or encircle them.

But for now, they are still safe.

otherwise.

They will not encounter this troop on the way to the palace, but the enemy's main force!
"Send the order!"

"Order Liu Ke to arrive outside the palace as soon as possible and thoroughly investigate the strength of the palace's garrison!"

"Send a pigeon to inform Liu Rengui that our troops have successfully arrived at the Umazaka Palace. Emperor Shumei has learned of our attack and has taken precautions. Tell Liu Rengui to be ready to provide support at any time."

"Yes!"

After two orders were issued in succession, Su Dingfang led the remaining troops and headed towards the Uzumaki Palace.

at the same time.

Masanori, who was heading towards Umayazaka Palace with troops from surrounding towns, encountered some fleeing soldiers halfway.

"Catch it!"

"Sir, spare your life!"

"Whose subordinates are you and why are you here?"

"Sir, we encountered the Tang army on the way to Umazaka Palace for support, and were dispersed by them..."

"The Tang army has arrived at Umazaka Palace?"

Masangli's face changed instantly.

The opponent's speed was much faster than he imagined!

"Everyone listen up, speed up and make sure to stop the Tang army outside the Umayazaka Palace!"

Following Masanlu's order, the 6,000 troops drawn from various towns accelerated their march.

But the Japanese were short, and since they were all walking, their speed was not very fast.

It was just because the towns were closer to the Umazaka Palace, they had the advantage of a shorter distance and were a little faster than Su Dingfang and others.

"Your Majesty, Lord Masanlu is back!"

"Great!"

Emperor Shumei was delighted. "How many troops did Masanru bring?"

"Six thousand!"

"it is good!"

Emperor Shu Ming was overjoyed.

Five thousand imperial guards, plus six thousand reinforcements, eleven thousand elite soldiers, even if they could not successfully defeat the thirteen thousand Tang troops, were enough to hold out until Kamimeno Katana came with his troops to support them.

"Send someone to inform Masan Lü immediately, be careful of the 500 cavalrymen of the Tang army!"

Emperor Shu Ming said with a serious face, "The 1,000 elite soldiers that Mitsui arranged to come to support have been dispersed by the enemy!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers left in a hurry.

Emperor Shumei stood on the high palace and looked at the two armies converging in the distance.

The number of people on both sides was almost the same, and at a glance, they were all crowded.

However, the flags of the two armies were completely different.

The 6,000-strong army led by Masanglu on the left was obviously faster than Su Dingfang's troops!
"Is the Tang general leading the troops this time Su Dingfang or Liu Rengui?"

"Your Majesty, it is Su Dingfang, the Lieutenant General of the Tang Dynasty."

Su Dingfang.

Emperor Shu Ming nodded and looked at the 8,000-strong army, which was full of vigor and orderly formation.

Just by looking at the opponent's formation, you can tell that this is a well-trained elite army!

Never meet.

For some unknown reason, Emperor Shu Ming suddenly felt a little uneasy.

The six thousand elite soldiers led by Masanlu were heading towards the Umazaka Palace, and the eight thousand elite soldiers led by Su Dingfang were also heading here. If they met before entering the Umazaka Palace...

Can the 6,000 elite soldiers brought by Masanglü really stop the 8,000 men under Su Dingfang?
Just now.

Emperor Shumei's pupils suddenly shrank, and he saw a black line in the distance, moving quickly towards the 6,000 elite soldiers brought by Masanlu.

It seems to be the Tang army!
Are these Tang soldiers crazy?

How many of them were there? How dare they attack Masangli's 6,000 elite soldiers?
"Brothers, let's become famous today!"

"Cut through them!"

Liu Ke raised the Mo Dao in his hand and shouted to the more than 400 cavalrymen behind him, "Tang Dynasty will win!"

"The Tang Dynasty is victorious!"

"The Tang Dynasty is victorious!"

"kill!"

Led by Liu Ke, nearly five hundred cavalrymen rushed towards Masangli's six thousand reinforcements like a sharp sword.

at the same time.

Su Dingfang received the news sent by Liu Ke.

"General, Captain Liu Ke discovered a large number of reinforcements heading towards the Umazaka Palace three miles away. He guessed that they were reinforcements from Emperor Shumei, so he decided to lead his troops to stop them. I hope the general will send troops to help!"

"How brave!"

Su Dingfang laughed loudly, "It seems that Emperor Shu Ming has indeed received news of our surprise attack!"

"but!"

"There are no more than a few thousand guards in his palace now. Now that the reinforcements have been discovered, he is doomed to be trapped and die in the palace!"

"Give me the order!"

"Li Ye, Wang Hua, each lead 2,000 soldiers to help Liu Ke. Make sure to stop the enemy's reinforcements!"
