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

Chapter 466: Firepower opens the way, who can withstand it?
On the sea.

The flames flickered.

From time to time, figures jumped off from the dilapidated warships.

There were also a large number of heads that kept rising and falling on the sea, diving, and then were pierced through by long spears.

Koizumi Juichiro looked at the scenes in front of him with a look of relief.

That's how they lost that day.

only.

This time, the target was Soga no Emishi.

correct.

What about Soga no Ezo?
Koizumi Jushiro looked around and saw that more than a dozen bombs had just fallen into the warship where Soga no Ezo was. With roars and flames shooting into the sky, the big ship disappeared.

Soga no Emishi was naturally missing as well.

However, among the heads and the floating Japanese soldiers below, there was no trace of Soga no Emishi.

Maybe, maybe...

Did you feed the fish?

In that situation, if he could still be alive, it would be a miracle.

At this time, a warship came over.

"General Liu."

Koizumi Jushiro recognized Liu Rengui standing on the deck at a glance.

Together with Liu Rengui were Cheng Feng and others.

"General Koizumi, have you seen Soga no Ezo?"

"him……"

Koizumi Jiro glanced at the sea and shrugged, "I guess it's probably fed to the fish."

"Feed the fish?"

"Correct."

Koizumi Jichiro recounted the scene in detail, and Liu Rengui nodded silently.

Dozens of bombs fell on the warship. Unless Soga no Ezo is indestructible, with a head of steel and arms of iron...

wrong.

Even if you have a head of copper and arms of iron and are indestructible, you will probably be shattered by the bombing of more than a dozen bombs.

at the same time.

The Japanese soldiers on the sea have been almost dealt with.

Most of the people who were lucky enough not to jump into the sea by relying on the warships have surrendered. As for those who fell into the sea or jumped in on their own initiative, they naturally became fish food.

"General, in this battle, a total of 1,821 people were beheaded and 923 were captured alive."

"Our soldiers suffered no more than ten casualties."

Wang Hua reported the results of the battle to Liu Rengui with a serious face.

When he heard that our casualties were only ten people, Liu Rengui couldn't help but show a strange look on his face.

Koizumi Jiro: "So little?"

Wang Hua frowned and said, "It's already a lot!"

Koizumi Juichiro: "..."

Wang Hua: "If these people hadn't been so careless and shot those who fell into the water on the boat, they wouldn't have been ambushed!"

Okay.

It turned out to be a few unlucky guys.

Liu Rengui nodded, as if he had thought of something, "How many bombs are left?"

"Not a single one left."

"..."

I knew it!

Liu Rengui shook his head speechlessly.

No wonder they killed Soga no Emishi with only a few casualties. It seemed like they were just using the bomb to exchange for the other person's life.

With complete firepower clearing the way, who can withstand this?
"well done."

After Liu Rengui praised him, he said in a deep voice: "Go back to the city."

That night.

Liu Rengui urgently summoned Jingbian Heyi and others to make arrangements for these prisoners.

The talents that the silver mine lacked were finally available, and they were free! Compared to the civilians hired with money, these captives were more practical.

"I have only one request, that is, no matter whether they live or die, we must ensure the progress of mining!"

Liu Rengui did not have much mercy on these captives, or rather, there was no need to waste his mercy on these people.

Their hands were more or less stained with the blood of Tang soldiers.

The most important thing is to let them mine in the silver mine and squeeze out all its value before they die.

Naturally, Jingbian Heyi and others had no dissatisfaction with Liu Rengui's arrangement.

Originally, these people were considered traitors in their eyes. Now that they were captured, they were thrown into the silver mine to mine ore, which gave them a glimmer of hope.

If Liu Rengui had not been merciful, these people would have been beheaded when they were caught.

Why would they need to dig for silver?
"General, you are kind and righteous. I promise to make the arrangements properly."

"Go ahead."

……

Early the next morning.

Liu Rengui stood up at Cheng Feng's urging.

"What's the matter?"

"General, people are coming."

"Who?"

Liu Rengui didn't think too much about it for a moment.

Cheng Feng smiled and said, "Our people have already arrived at Naniwajin by boat!"

Liu Rengui's face immediately lit up with joy. "Are people from home coming?"

"Exactly!"

"Good good."

Liu Rengui nodded repeatedly, "Let's go, quickly arrange a boat and follow me to Naniwajin."

Cheng Feng: "It has been arranged."

"Set off."

Nanbajin.

One after another, the ships of the Tang Dynasty docked at the port. Xue Yuanchao, the leader, looked at the port in front of him with a smile on his face, watching the ships coming and going.

Although Japan is in turmoil, the port has been controlled by the Tang Dynasty, ensuring stability here. Therefore, those who should do business are naturally still doing business.

"General Liu Ke greets Lord Xue."

"Captain Liu, excuse me."

Xue Yuanchao smiled and said, "Captain Liu played an indispensable role in pacifying Japan this time."

Liu Ke shook his head. "You are joking, my lord. It was all because of the general's good command and the brothers' sacrifice. How dare I take credit for it?"

Xue Yuanchao nodded, and heard bursts of exclamations coming from behind him. Looking back, he saw several warships moving towards here at a very fast speed.

"It's my Tang Dynasty's warship."

"General Liu must have received the news."

"General Liu Rengui?"

"nature."

Liu Ke smiled and nodded, "General Liu was ordered to go to Gangshan County to take over the silver mine. Now he dares to come here in a hurry. I think he heard the news that you are coming."

"I see."

Xue Yuanchao pondered and asked, "Is there any place in Japan that has not been pacified yet?"

"Naturally there is."

Liu Ke said in a deep voice, "The previous rebel Soga no Emishi was entrenched in the territory of Kyushu Island."

"Although Emperor Shumei was arrested and sent to Chang'an, his general Kamimono Katana supported Emperor Shumei's son and wanted to re-establish the country of Wa."

"It's just that we have too few troops and can't encircle and suppress them for the time being."

"But now that Lord Xue has brought all the lords and soldiers here, we have enough manpower to clean it up."

Soga no Emishi is the name of a tribe of Kamimono.

Xue Yuanchao had heard the names of these two people in books and from other people.

Soga no Emishi was a veteran of two dynasties, but he was too extravagant and ostentatious, and looked down on Emperor Shumei. He wanted to follow Prime Minister Cao's example and establish a new emperor, but was driven away by Emperor Shumei.

As for Kamimeno Kaname, there is no need to say more. He is the only general of note in Japan.

It is worth mentioning that.

Xue Yuanchao had suspected several times that the reason why the Soga no Ezo was not conquered was most likely because Kamimono Kaname kept the enemy to himself.

Only in this way can Kamimono Kaname have enough say in front of Emperor Shumei.

"Is Lord Xue here?"

The ship stopped and Liu Rengui walked over in two steps.

"Xue Yuanchao has met General Liu."

"Master Xue, please excuse me, excuse me."

Liu Rengui laughed, "Master Xue, you and I have met in the palace before, do you still remember?"

Xue Yuanchao smiled and nodded, "At that time, General Liu was still a secretary. Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, General Liu would become the commander of a local navy."

Liu Rengui nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I didn't expect that His Majesty would arrange for you to come here."

Xue Yuanchao: "To be honest, I volunteered."

Oh?
Liu Rengui looked at Xue Yuanchao with some surprise.

This Japan is not Chang'an. Even if it is pacified, it will not be as prosperous and convenient as Chang'an. Yet Xue Yuanchao actually volunteered to come here.

It can be seen that Xue Yuanchao really wants to make a career.

Liu Rengui smiled and said, "Master Xue feels that he cannot display his talents in Chang'an City and has failed His Majesty and the Prince, so he came here?"

Xue Yuanchao: "General, you are wise."

"That's great, let's go and sit in the city first."

Liu Rengui smiled and nodded, calling Xue Yuanchao and other officials to go to the county town together.

along the way.

Liu Rengui also learned some arrangements from Xue Yuanchao.

For example, the reason why Xue Yuanchao and his men brought their troops here in advance this time was to ensure that Japan was completely pacified and transformed into the Protectorate of Japan.

As for who will be the Grand Commander of the Protectorate of Japan, there are many voices in the court.

In other words, the position of Grand Commander has not yet been discussed.

after all.

This position is extremely important.

If a mediocre person with average ability were to come here, it would be difficult for him to make full use of this place.

Although the position of Grand Commander is temporarily vacant, many other officials and craftsmen have come, enough to ensure the normal operation of the place.

Simultaneously.

In order to ensure everyone's safety, Xue Yuanchao also brought 10,000 elite soldiers and a lot of ammunition this time.

"It doesn't matter how many troops come, the most important thing is that the ammunition is delivered promptly."

Liu Rengui sighed, "My men were so ruthless that even Soga no Emishi and I disappeared without a trace."

"Oh?"

"What do you mean by this?"

Xue Yuanchao and others looked curious.

Could it be that they fought a battle with Soga no Emishi?

Liu Rengui: "More than a dozen bombs were fired into the warship that Soga no Ezo was on. In an instant, not only the warship was gone, but even Soga no Ezo disappeared."

Everyone gasped.

More than a dozen bombs fell on a ship, and even a strong warship would collapse.

"Then he's dead."

"I'm afraid it'll be hard to keep the body!"

"As it should be."

Xue Yuanchao and others were discussing the matter.

Liu Rengui: "That's right. Besides, this battle used up all our bombs!"

"You guys helped us a lot by sending us the ammunition this time. With these ammunition, we can easily deal with Kamimuro Noname."

"It should, it should."

Xue Yuanchao laughed, "We have brought 10,000 elite soldiers with us, which is enough to solve this problem."

"This is inevitable."

Liu Rengui looked serious.

If Kamimeno Gōna wants to re-establish the Wa Kingdom, he has to ask the muskets in their hands whether they agree or not.

"Come here, prepare a banquet to welcome the masters!"
