Chapter 997 Surrender or not
The lights in the camp were brightly lit, and the Japanese soldiers were strangling in front of them. The footsteps and screams of the Japanese soldiers fleeing outside startled the bird, and flew towards the back of the camp.
More than ten torches illuminate Jia Ping'an's surroundings as if it were daytime.
From the moment most of Banlin was defeated, Asano's heart was half cold.
She knew that there would be no way to prevent Jia Ping'an from approaching Bird City, and then there would be a battle that would determine the rise and fall of the Wa Kingdom.
At first, she thought that the Tang army only had 20,000 people, and at most it could be a stalemate, but now...
What are the emperor and those important ministers doing?
They were at a loss for Jia Ping'an.
The Japanese general's kneeling reminded her of her mentality.
At the beginning, she hoped to use her relationship with Jia Ping'an to make a fortune in Japan, but Jia Ping'an forced her to write some stories about the emperor.
From then on, she knew that this man's heart was like a stone.
She hoped that Jia Ping'an would fail, and if necessary, she could say anyway, saying that she was making compromises by Jia Ping'an's side.
She can even kill Jia Pingan in the chaos, and then take his head to claim credit.
Just like the persistence of the previous Japanese general, she felt that she was indomitable.
But the Japanese general's sudden kneeling made her introspect.
If adults turn their backs, how dare I hold my neck?
She shook her head.
"How about the birds?"
My lord's words came, Asano was startled, and quickly translated it.
But the Japanese general could speak Tang dialect, and said directly: "The emperor ordered soldiers to be recruited everywhere, and now there are 200,000 troops in the city."
Historically, when the country of Wa crossed the sea to Liaodong, tens of thousands of troops were dispatched. That was crossing the sea. If you are fighting on the mainland, it is really easy to recruit hundreds of thousands of troops.
"Who are the soldiers made up of?"
The Japanese general who was like a steadfast woman just now is as docile as a dog, "Most of them are peasant households, and there are also savages in the mountains."
Wa Kingdom had no writing before the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and was purely a savage tribe. That's why later generations are allowed to think about the origin of the so-called emperor... There are no words, how can you think of the emperor?
"How's the atmosphere?"
Jia Ping'an looked calm, and even looked up at the sky full of stars.
Wo will be honest and honest: "I was very flustered, but then the emperor gave out money and piled it up in front of the palace, saying that after this battle, I will let the meritorious people ask for it."
"Using profit to lure them has some effect on those savages."
Jia Pingan somehow felt a tightness in his chest.
He thought of many things again.
"Tell me." Jia Pingan slightly looked down at the Japanese general, "Who arranged for you to come?"
The Japanese general did not dare to look at Jia Ping'an, "It's the big purple crown."
"who?"
Asano explained: "The Great Purple Crown is the official title of Nakaomi Kamazu."
Jia Pingan waved his hand.
The Japanese general kowtowed suddenly, and his forehead hit the ground frantically, making a popping sound.
Xu Xiaoyu stood guard behind him, reached out and grabbed his hair, and pulled back hard.
The Japanese general raised his head, and cried out in tears, "I don't want to enter the Beijing Temple, I don't want... Your lord, please spare my life, I will die for you from now on..."
"Stay here, at least I can have a servant."
Cui Jian's words moved Jia Pingan's heart slightly, and he glanced at Asano.
"Alright, what's your name?"
"Hanoi fish."
Jia Ping'an's cheeks twitched, feeling that the name was really...fuckingly appropriate.
Asano's heart shuddered, and when Jia Pingan looked over, the smile was less charming and more respectful.
In the previous life, Jia Pingan trusted a friend very much, and asked him for an important matter. He gave gifts and money, and asked him to clear it up for him... and another friend can also do this. Jia Pingan thought that since he entrusted If you lose this friend, don't worry about it, and look down on others.
Friendship is enough for this.
But in the end, his friend told him regretfully that the matter could not be done, and he was scolded.
He felt that he was burdening his friend, so he bought him a drink, and never mentioned it during the dinner.
He is really a good guy and thinks of the best in everything.
But the next day he wakes up with a hangover and gets a call...
—That's your competitor.
Why?
Jia Ping'an was confused.
My friend took control of this matter, why did I fail, but that person did?
The call was made by an ordinary friend who was not far or near in the past.
—He hired a dragon with a big sword. I saw him enter your friend's office with a bag, and when he came out empty-handed, he smiled reservedly.
oh!
Is that so?
From now on, Jia Pingan likes to find more ways to do things, even if he is the closest relative, he will not believe it.
This society is selfish after all!
Naive people either live miserably or die miserably.
Asano has been by his side for a long time, seemingly respectful. But Jia Pingan didn't trust this woman, not even a single hair.
Introducing Hanoi fish is the second way he found.
Checks and balances!
Most of the knowledge taught in schools is used for exams, and the knowledge that is really useful is what you learn after you enter the society.
Exams are just for sorting!
All of this is what he learned in society, and the price is being beaten.
There was a shout of killing in front, and Jia Pingan said lazily: "Throw a few back."
…
"The night attack failed."
Zhongchen Kamatsu bowed his head and entered the hall, delivering the bad news to Tianzhi.
"How did you lose?"
Tianzhi felt that he was getting numb, and after hearing the bad news, his mind was calm.
"Jia Pingan has long been prepared."
"oh!"
Boom!
Teacup smash.
Tianzhi yelled at his friend for the first time, "I entrusted my safety to you, and you swore that you would defeat Jia Pingan. How long has it been? How long? Your confident plan has been turned into a war in Jia Ping'an's hands." What a joke, how long will it take you to beat him? How long?!"
Nakatomi knelt down slowly.
The recently added gray hair can be seen on the top of the head.
"He's coming!"
Tianzhi's almost moaning voice echoed in the hall.
…
Jia Ping'an is already on the way.
Hanoi Yu is very respectful. When Jia Pingan got on the horse, he knelt beside A Bao. If it wasn’t because A Bao didn’t like this and pouted at him, Jia Ping would also like to try the feeling of stepping on someone’s back to get on the horse.
When marching, he walked in front of Abao. If he encountered a rock, he would move it away. If there was a pit, he would get out of the way and remind Jia Pingan.
"Too respectful."
Liu Rengui found it inconceivable, "Nobody in Chang'an can find such a respectful servant."
"It's just one side."
The Japanese generals have been respectful for many years, and then they began to have ambitions for this continent, and then sent a large army to land, and began to stir up wind and rain in Liaodong.
"What would happen if Datang lost the Battle of Baijiangkou?"
Liu Rengui was taken aback.
"I will not lose!"
Lao Liu’s self-confidence and Jia Ping’an’s self-confidence are half of his own, “I said if.”
"The coalition forces will go deep, and then the war will begin."
"After the defeat at Baijiangkou, the Japanese were very respectful. They sent envoys to Chang'an to apologize, just like grandsons. But believe it or not, Lao Liu, if the Tang Dynasty didn't care about it, when the Japanese felt that the Central Plains had declined, they would go ashore again. The War of Nations begins..."
"The Battle of the Nation?"
"right!"
After the defeat of Baijiangkou, the Japanese country immediately sent envoys to repair it, and then sent Tang envoys continuously... What do they want to do?
They want to learn everything about their opponents and then improve themselves. And the first thing they want to do after they become strong is to give this gentleman a fatal blow.
During the Song Dynasty, while they sent people to borrow crops, they harassed the coastal areas. When they arrived in Ming Dynasty, they felt that they were strong enough, so they came from the sea, and the army landed on the peninsula...
Wa people have already had their own strategic ideas for hundreds of years: to conquer the world, they must first conquer the East; to conquer the East, they must first conquer North Korea...
It's ridiculous that many people are still advocating what is friendly.
There is blood in the Sino-Japanese relationship that has continued from the Han and Tang Dynasties. Whenever the Central Plains declines, whenever the Japanese feel that they are strong enough, their eyes will turn to the Central Plains, and then there will be adventures.
If I fail, I will go back to practice and come back next time...
The Battle of Baijiangkou in the Tang Dynasty frightened them, and they went back to practice for hundreds of years.
During the Ming Dynasty, they felt that they were very powerful, and the Ming Dynasty was the afterglow of the empire, but they were still beaten severely.
In modern times, Man Qing, who everyone drags a pig tail, has become a zombie, making them succeed in their adventure.
They can fail countless times, but as long as they succeed once, they will pour all the animality and violence in their bones on this land that makes them all envious and jealous.
Burning, killing, looting, all kinds of evil, animals will feel ashamed when they see their actions.
Taking history as a mirror, we can know the ups and downs.
Li Jingye said lazily: "Brother, this Hanoi fish is really good, why don't you take it home."
Jia Pingan said flatly: "I don't keep animals in my house."
"What about Ah Fu?"
"Ah Fu is a family."
Brother is stupid again, Li Jingye: "..."
Along the way, you can encounter enemy scouts from time to time.
"General Manager, kill dozens of enemy scouts ahead."
"knew."
Jia Ping'an was not moved at all.
They came across the village.
The low-slung houses looked like places where savages lived. Historically, their envoys to the Tang Dynasty brought knowledge and culture from the Tang Dynasty continuously, so various buildings of the Tang Dynasty began to be copied on this land.
Those villagers ran away long ago.
After catching a fool who stayed behind, I found out the reason after some inquiries.
"They said that the chief executive can eat people, and he must eat a hundred people every day to be satisfied."
"Yeah, if you want to eat people, you won't eat Japanese people."
Jia Pingan smiled.
When approaching the bird, the enemy's scouts became denser and more numerous.
"Take turns."
Jia Pingan came to a round of battle, and he couldn't help feeling refreshed watching his subordinates hacking and killing Japanese people like whack-a-mole.
He hates us!
Hanoi Yu, who has been pretending to be a grandson, took a sneak peek, with various thoughts in his mind.
Then he felt a sharp gaze, he glanced at Asano, squinted and smiled.
The two are together.
Asano said in a low voice: "Your front and rear have lost all face."
Hanoi Yu maintained a humble smile, "You bastard, you still have the face to come back?"
"Why do I have no face?"
"You are leading the way!"
You are the leading party!
Asano's face was full of complacency, and then became indifferent.
Hanoi Yu glanced at her, "Master doesn't like you."
Asano jumped up instantly like a wild cat whose tail was stepped on, and slapped his hand.
Hanoi fish dodged easily.
Asano quietly kicked a kick from below.
Hanoi fish with legs twisted.
Boom!
Asano elbowed him, Hanoi Yu grabbed his arm and exerted force...
The movements of the two of them stopped, because Xu Xiaoyu in front of him looked back at them.
When he could see Feiniao City, Jia Pingan wondered, "Is this the capital city?"
Damn it, not to mention surpassing Chang'an City, at least you have to have some scale, right?
You can see the traces of the rebuilding of Bird City, and the rammed earth is very new.
"very thick!"
Liu Rengui has been struggling with the red envelopes on his body all the way, and he is finally feeling better now, "It seems that the Japanese know the power of our firearms, and temporarily thickened the city wall, so this road will not work."
"I am not in a hurry."
Jia Ping'an smiled very kindly.
Wang Fangyi said: "It's good to have a quick battle."
Jia Pingan shook his head, Cui Jian coughed dryly: "We are not short of food and grass."
Of the 100,000 troops who were strangled, only a few thousand remained, and the piles of food and grass became the trophies of the army. At the moment, those prisoners of war are working hard to transport them.
Wang Fangyi, "..."
Yeah!
Now we are in no rush!
Jia Pingan rode his horse slowly towards Bird City.
The sergeant on the top of the city found Jia Ping'an and screamed, "Tang Jun is here!"
All kinds of voices are warning.
Dang Dang Dang Dang!
Boom boom boom!
Some people beat drums, some beat copper plates, some jumped their feet and screamed.
"This ceremony is a little more grand, and I deserve it."
Jia Ping'an smiled slightly, and stopped A Bao from the shooting range.
The flag bearer behind him also stopped.
The city is in chaos.
"Up to the top of the city!"
The generals kicked and beat their subordinates frantically, and drove them to the top of the city.
The number of riders galloped towards the palace in a frenzy!
"Tang Jun is here!"
The huge sound had already reached the palace. Tianzhi, who was discussing matters with his courtiers, took a deep breath and said calmly, "It's good that Jia Ping'an is here."
The courtiers were silent.
Only Nakatomi walked out with his feet.
"Your Majesty, life and death are at stake."
Tianzhi nodded, "You go to sit in town, you can't do it... I will go again."
"Your Majesty!"
The blood of the officials is boiling.
Zhongchen Lianzu took several important officials to the city.
"Tang Jun is sure to be 20,000 people."
The cavalry who came to report the news was very determined.
"How many cavalry?"
"More than a hundred people."
This is consistent with the news brought back by the defeated sergeants in the early stage.
After climbing to the top of the city, Nakatomi Kamazu saw Yiqi.
"That is…"
He squinted at the big flag.
The city was very noisy, and it became even more lively after he came up, with people constantly muttering.
Nakatomi felt that he was in a downtown, no, the downtown was not so noisy.
"Quiet!"
The important minister beside him roared angrily.
Noisy as before.
The minister looked at the banner...
The writing used by the Wa country is the writing of the Tang Dynasty. Before that, they were savages, and the writing... did not exist.
Huaxia characters have a long history, developed from pictorial characters step by step, during which countless wise men worked hard to produce the characters we have today.
And the country of Wa can be said to be something for nothing.
The upper echelons of the entire Wa Kingdom are proud of knowing Chinese characters and Tang dialect. Anyone who knows one of them feels that he is superior, and he has the sense of superiority that later generations pop up an English word in speeches from time to time.
I know the language of a gentleman, you don't.
The minister looked at the big flag and subconsciously shouted: "It's Jia Ping'an!"
In an instant, the city was quiet.
The city was noisier than the vegetable market just now, but now you can hear even a needle drop.
The young general looked at the top of the city in a leisurely manner, as if admiring a historic site.
Nakatomi Kamazu murmured: "Does he treat us as dead people?"
Jia Pingan really regarded them as dead people, "There are a lot of troops, but they are a little flustered... Eh! Have you calmed down?"
The city was quiet, and Jia Pingan felt a little bored.
The quietness in such a short period of time shows that the quality of the Japanese army is not bad.
He would never have imagined that those Japanese fell silent instantly after hearing his name.
"Why..."
Someone is shouting from the top of the city.
"Who is that man?"
Asano and Hanoi Yu stepped forward together, Hanoi Yu had good eyes and said, "It's the big purple crown."
Nakatomi sickle feet?
Jia Ping'an is somewhat interested in this person.
"Why raise troops?"
Nakatomi Kamazu shouted loudly.
"Da Tang speaks well."
Jia Pingan squinted at Nakatomi Kamatsu.
"How can he explain it?" The important minister beside him whispered: "I asked the Tang envoy for advice. The most important thing in the Central Plains is that the teacher is famous, that is, he can't attack other countries for no reason... If he can't answer, he has no way. The morale of our army was greatly boosted, while the morale of the Tang army was greatly reduced."
Nakatomi Kamazu looked at him appreciatively, "Very good."
The important minister was overjoyed, "If you have the right way, you will win if you don't have the right way."
Thumbs up!
Zhongchen nodded with sickle feet.
"How can Jia Pingan answer? The Battle of Baijiangkou? It was caused by Datang's greed."
Nakatomi Kamazu said in a deep voice: "Prepare to deal with it!"
The important minister nodded, and said confidently: "I promise to let him return with shame."
Jia Ping'an raised his head, and Zhongchen listened intently.
Countless people in the entire city were quietly waiting for his answer.
How would Jia Pingan answer?
He hardly thought about it, he held a small oil paper bag in his hand, and opened...
The sun is very good.
Lots of light and good sightlines.
Nakatomi Kamazu saw some powder.
what?
"This is the poison brought by the envoy of Tang Dynasty. It is shameless to want to poison His Majesty!"
What?
Nakatomi was stunned.
Poison?
Those powders are poison?
The Japanese were all looking at Nakatomi Kamazu.
How important it is to send envoys to the Tang Dynasty. Except for a very small number of upper-level figures who can know the whole story, these sticks on the top of the city do not understand the operating mechanism of this matter.
Poison?
Are we really sending Tang envoys to Chang'an to poison?
"This is slander!"
Nakatomi Kamazu had never seen such a shameless person, and said angrily, "This is planting!"
is useless.
The oiled paper bag was thrown on the ground, and a few ants climbed up and turned on the powder. One ant went back, and later a group of ants appeared one after another. The ants walked back one by one with the powder in their mouths, and touched their partners with their tentacles when they met on the road.
These ants went all the way to their nests and stored the powder.
The taste of fried noodles is good, it seems that there is no need to starve this early summer.
Shameless!
Zhongchen looked at Jia Pingan gloomily.
Puff puff!
Footsteps came in order.
There are tens of thousands of people, and there are no boundaries.
Twenty thousand people form a huge array...
is coming towards Bird City.
"It's Tang Jun!"
Puff puff!
The Japanese at the head of the city watched the Tang army approaching quietly.
Puff puff!
A huge array is approaching the city.
Jia Pingan raised his hand.
"Stop..."
Amid the thunder-like roar, the array stopped.
Array is silent.
Jia Pingan raised his hand again.
"What is he going to do?"
"Siege the city immediately after the long march?"
"This madman!"
Choking!
Amidst the countless sounds of drawing swords, those Tang Jun slapped their shields with the backs of their swords.
"Bah bah bah!"
"Surrender or not?!"
"Bah bah bah!"
"Surrender or not?!"
Nakatomi Kamazu looked left and right.
It was pale!
