Hai Zhengshi.

The full moon hangs high in the sky, and the ground is covered with silvery moonlight.

After the troops led by Xu Da and Chang Yuchun arrived, the vanguard army led by Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou took a rest. They had not rested since crossing the sea, and the next battle would be decided by Xu Da and Chang Yu. Spring starts.

Immediately, Xu Da and Chang Yuchun led the army to Qiuyuan County, and Qin Ze, as the commander-in-chief, followed him under the protection of Dian Wei and Xu Zhu.

On the other side, Murata Kosuke, who had arrived in Akihara County, had already assembled his troops. Together with another group of troops who had arrived from Feishe County, their strength now reached 110,000.

Now, they are guarding the road from Akihara to the Kyoto Imperial Palace. This is a wilderness, otherwise it would be difficult to deploy so many troops.

The reason why they did not defend the city and fight was also very simple. There was no city wall in Akiyuan County.

Strictly speaking, in the entire Fuso, only the Imperial City of Kyoto has a city wall, and the city wall is not high, not even as tall as the wall of a medium-sized city in Yan Kingdom.

As an island country, Fuso is subject to frequent earthquakes. Building a city wall can easily collapse even if it experiences a small earthquake. Therefore, building a city wall can be said to be a waste of time and money, and the disadvantages far outweigh the benefits.

Therefore, under this situation, the only city defense they can rely on can only rely on the mountains, rivers and natural terrain to form protection.

But Qiuyuan County has no support, which means there is almost no city defense.

It was precisely for this reason that Yamanaka Takuma was so panicked during the initial landing battle. Once the enemy troops entered Fuso territory, the consequences would be extremely serious.

At this moment, in the Fuso military camp.

Kosuke Murata stood by the bonfire, looking at the burning flames expressionlessly.

Next to him was Yoshino Sendo from Hisha. Murata Kosuke had a higher military rank, so Yoshino Sendo handed over his command after joining him with his own troops.

Looking at Murata Kosuke's expressionless face, Yoshino Sendou considered for a long time and said:

"General, the enemy has been fighting for a long time during the day. Now it is late at night. It is time for them to rest. I think..."

"We should take advantage of this opportunity."

"After all, we already have a lot of troops now."

"Wait a moment, there are soldiers and horses coming towards us." Murata Kosuke replied with an unchanging expression.

"But the enemy troops are openly staying in our territory at the moment. They defeated the soldiers and horses of the general in the mountain, leaving our new army with no one left. They killed so many people. The general... It's really hard to see Don't go down!" Yoshino Sendou's face turned slightly red, and there was anger in his eyes.

"Don't I know? It's just that Murata told me before leaving that this enemy force that landed is extraordinary. We can only defeat them at once with overwhelming force."

"If we continue to fight intermittently, their long-range weapons will gradually eat away at us."

"Don't be impatient, Yoshino. We will wait here until we can get our reinforcements, but the enemy is isolated and helpless."

As soon as he said this, Yoshino Sendou clenched his fists.

"It's just that when I think that they killed so many of us, but now they can stay safely in our territory, I get very angry."

"These bastards! Next I will kill them to pieces!" Yoshino gritted his teeth with a fierce look on his face.

Murata Kosuke glanced at him and nodded silently. The anger in his heart was no less than that of Yoshino. In fact, he didn't want to fight immediately at this time.

The conversation between the two ended here.

But after a while, the sound of several horse hooves came from far and near. It was the scouts sent earlier, and they came back from the front.

Before the scouts arrived, Kosuke Yamazaka saw the panicked looks on their faces through the moonlight. His heart tightened, and then a burst of anger began to burst out.

Soon, the scouts arrived and immediately reported to Mahui:

"Reporting to the general, the enemy is still marching! And the speed is much faster than before!"

"Not only that, they have a lot of troops. Those cavalry are rushing ahead, and we can't get close to investigate!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Murata Kosuke slapped him in the face.

The scout tilted his body and almost fell to the ground. He covered his face and looked at the angry Murata Kosuke with a puzzled expression.

Murata Kosuke’s curse followed closely:

"Baga, I asked you to explore the enemy's movements. What are you talking about in your sleep?"

"Have you ever gone to find out?!"

"Where did they get the cavalry!?"

The scout looked aggrieved and said hurriedly:

"General, let's go! It's clear that there are cavalry, not just a small group of cavalry, but an army of countless cavalry!"

"If you don't believe me, General, just ask them. I'm not talking nonsense." The scout pointed at the companions beside him, who nodded repeatedly and echoed:

"General, they are indeed cavalry, and there are so many of them! You can't see the edge at a glance!"

Listening to the scouts talking, Murata Kosuke was stunned. Not only him, but Yoshino Sendou on the side was also stunned, but he immediately asked:

"If you put it this way, is it possible that there are still thousands of cavalry?"

"Yes! Absolutely!" the scouts replied.

"But where did this horse come from?" Yoshino Sendou asked.

The voices of the scouts suddenly stopped at this moment, and they all looked at each other, but they didn't know how to reply.

“Where do horses come from?”

Yoshino Sendo repeated it again, but still no one answered him.

Kosuke Murata rubbed his forehead, his eyes showing unprecedented confusion.

"They must have brought these war horses in warships!" At this time, a scout said.

But as soon as he said this, he knew that he had said something completely unrealistic and stupid.

The breeze blew, and the grass blades on the ground rose with the wind. Yoshino Sendou murmured to himself:

"Weird things...weird things..."

"General! Now is not the time to think about this! The enemy army is coming fiercely and is coming towards us! We will soon have to fight with them hand-to-hand!" the scout said nervously.

Yoshino Sendou looked at Murata Kosuke, waiting for his decision.

"What on earth is going on? What on earth is going on with them in this Yan country?!"

"We have been fighting fiercely all day long without taking a break. We have to organize troops and horses to continue advancing. There are even cavalry appearing?!"

"Who are we...who are we fighting?!"

Under the moonlight, Murata Kosuke roared.

-

Kyoto Imperial Palace.

Although the night is dark, it is still a sleepless night.

The candlelight was flickering, and Nobuo Sakamoto was pacing back and forth at home, his brows furrowed into a knot as he was thinking.

"We killed so many of them in the East China Sea before. This time the Yan people came to our Fusang, they must have come with overwhelming anger. I am afraid that what we will face next is a protracted war." '

'Hmm... Huang Tianwei once said before that the previous emperor Jin Fengling was a fierce-tempered person. This is indeed true. If she sends troops here, there might be a chance for peace. '

'But now the new emperor Qin Ze is an extremely violent madman. He is now determined to fight us. According to this madman's usual temperament, I am afraid... he will not stop until our country is destroyed. '

'His Majesty the Emperor seems not to be aware of this issue yet. If I tell him directly, I'm afraid he will accuse me of being timid before fighting and badmouthing Fuso, and he might even ask me to commit suicide! "

"Baga! What an idiot!'

When his thoughts reached this point, Nobuo Sakamoto suddenly stopped and clapped his hands.

"The bastard Huang Tianwei is probably aware of this situation, so he fled early. After all, he is the only one who retreated from the battlefield!"

"I also have to be prepared to escape! It's better to go to Wangdong Port first and find those guys! If we really lose, I'm afraid we need their help! If they get involved, Yan Kingdom will always give them face and stop. !”

"After all, it is impossible for Yan State to dare to conflict with two countries at the same time!"

Immediately, Nobuo Sakamoto hurried out of the house in the night.
