The Japanese who were reveling in the city did not know that their homes were gone. Seeing the fire burning at the port, this group of crazy and half-drunk dwarfs realized it later, and rushed towards the port with strange screams of "ouch".
By the time the Japanese rushed to the port, the Sui army had already boarded the ship and left the shore.
The fire soared into the sky and burned from shore to shore, forming a spreading trend. The Sui army was not far away, but blocked by fire and water, it was so close.
The Japanese's eyes were red, and they screamed "wow" at the departing ship, gnashing their teeth, but could do nothing.
For the Japanese and Baekje people, what happened today was almost like a bolt from the blue.
And Zhang Changxun led everyone to drive the boat away almost staggeringly. Fifteen hundred people were divided into more than two hundred ships, with almost a few people on each ship. Some smaller warships were better, but some large ships were really struggling.
Although it was already dawn at this time, the river was narrow and there were no lights on both sides to guide us. From time to time, ships collided or even ran aground on the rocks.
Everyone stumbled and rushed from the Xunkou River Channel into the mouth of the Han River, and the road ahead was barely easier to walk. Entering the mouth of the Han River, the river widens and ships have room to move forward. At least they don't have to worry about collisions or running aground on rocks.
The mouth of the Han River is also in the shape of an inverted trumpet, but outside the mouth of the river, there is a small island lying across it. However, the island itself is used as a warning and shore defense, and cannot really prevent people from rushing out of the river mouth.
Zhang Changxun ordered everyone to advance from the broad side on the north side.
Looking south from the warship, you can even see the stunned Baekje people on the island. Some Baekje people also tried to throw stones at the Sui warships, but the Baekje people's catapults were too close to hurt the warships.
One after another, everyone slowly sailed out of the river mouth and towards the sea.
Zhang Changxun stood on the bow deck, letting the sea breeze blow over his face.
"Mingfu, we really captured hundreds of Japanese warships and almost no losses?" The soldiers were surprised and happy when they escaped from danger. This rapid march was tense and heart-pounding, but looking at the countless warships, I could not restrain my joy.
"We have captured all the Japanese warships, let's see what these little dwarfs can do with them."
"These little dwarfs dare to follow the Baekje and Silla thieves to attack me. I will not let them return to their hometown alive."
Everyone laughed and cursed, and the entire deck was filled with happy air.
Not long after Zhang Changxun and his party rushed out from the mouth of the Han River, they encountered the main force of Huang Mingjun's troops coming from the south.
The notification personnel dispatched by Zhang Changxun did not contact Huang Mingjun. After all, the road was far away and there was no specific location on the sea. But a fire at Xekou Port pointed the way for the Sui army.
When the sky was not bright, a heavy fire burned the sky, spreading from the entire cave island to the four sides, and see the red sky as much as possible.
After Zhang Changxun left, Huang Mingjun was worried and stayed up all night on the deck.
When I saw the fire starting in the northeast of Xiangkou Island, I couldn't help but jump up and quickly ordered the army to move towards Xiangkou Port.
??This Changxun really succeeded in his raid.
But the surprise was far more than that. When the two sides met, Huang Mingjun learned that Zhang Changxun had captured more than 200 Japanese warships without a single blow. He was even more ecstatic and even wanted to jump.
God help me!
Taking advantage of Zhang Changxun¡¯s successful surprise attack, Huang Mingjun decided to march immediately, blockade the entire upper reaches of the Han River, and trapped the Baekje and Japanese coalition forces on the north bank of the Han River.
By then, there will be Yeseong River in the east, Hulu River in the west, Songakseong City in the north, and Han River in the south. Baekje and Japanese will be unable to escape in this narrow area.
If you want to blockade the Han River, you must first occupy the islands at the mouth of the Han River. These islands are dotted around the river, guarding the estuary and determining the entry and exit of large ships. If these islands are not cleaned up, they will be harassed by enemy troops.
So Huang Mingjun ordered Zhang Changxun to be the commander-in-chief and mobilized 5,000 troops to attack the Xukou Islands, especially Xukou City. Zhou Shaofan and Wenren Sui'an were ordered to lead medium-sized ships directly from the Han River to blockade the Han River and Licheng River respectively.
Huang Mingjun himself led the main fleet and rushed to Xekou Port.
Among the surrounding areas, there is only one Aekou Port that can station large naval forces. But looking at this fire, I don¡¯t know what is left in the port.
During the attack, I was afraid that the fire would burn down a little, but now that I have to use the port, I lamented why the fire burned so completely.
There are no troops left in Xuekou Port. As long as the fire is extinguished, the Sui army will be at their fingertips. The key to this battle is that Zhang Changxun's troops enter Xuekou City. I can't take the city of Xukou.Hong Kong is meaningless.
Xuekou City is the main city of Xuekou Island and the only city. Xuekou Island is a mountain island. The entire southern, central and northern parts of the island are covered with high mountains. Only the gentle eastern part can be inhabited. There are not many aboriginal people on the entire island, and there is only one city, Yankou City.
If the Baekje people are allowed to occupy the city of Ankou, their troops can attack at any time to threaten the port of Ankou.
Ankou Fortress is not a city in itself, but a fortress built by the Baekje people to fight against the Goguryeo people. Its city is narrow and steep, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.
In normal times, it would be difficult for the Sui army to break the city, but because Zhang Changxun raided Xukou Port last night, the morale of the defenders dropped sharply. In order to prevent the Sui army from coming again, the city defenders immediately built fortifications in the northeast in an attempt to block the enemy.
Who would have thought that the Sui army would suddenly rush out over the mountains from the south and head straight for Xukou City.
There were four to five thousand Baekje troops plus Japanese troops in the city, about the same number as the Sui army. There was also a fortified city, which could have been defended for a period of time. But obviously the outcome of the war does not entirely depend on the hard power of both sides. This group of people was already frightened, but they did not expect that the Sui army would come back and suddenly appear. Therefore, facing the Sui army, they were frightened and hurriedly accepted the battle. Finally, Defeated by the Sui army.
Zhang Changxun took advantage of the situation and rushed into the city, defeating the enemy. The Baekje and Japanese were defeated, and only a few hundred people fled through the narrow waterway to the east. The rest were all captured and killed by the Sui army.
As soon as the Sui army descended on Xiankou City, Zhang Changxun ordered everyone to clear out the remaining enemies on the island. At the same time, he divided his troops and rushed to the surrounding islands to deal with the sentries left by the Baekje people.
There are also hundreds of Baekje troops on more than ten small islands outside the mouth of the Han River.
Zhang Changxun himself personally led the main force to Xekou Port to put out the fire. However, the fire has been burning for most of the day. Useful things such as docks and houses have long been burned out, and the shore is full of charcoal. What's left is a wide area of ??water where warships can berth.
The Sui army could not dislike this result. You get the melons you sow, and you can't blame others.
In the port, the main warships of the Sui army, plus the captured Japanese ships, numbered hundreds, densely packed together. After this battle, the overall situation of the war was decided, and there was no possibility of Baekje and Japanese victory. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
