Even if Qin Mu disagreed, it was impossible to kill Prince Shotoku on the spot.

This...

This is too insane...

Emperor Tuigu sat paralyzed on the imperial chair, resting his right hand on his forehead, and said in a deep voice, "Speak, tell me the whole story."

"What exactly happened that made Qin Mu refuse to accept Prince Shotoku's request to surrender, and even...killed him."

"Yes." The messenger replied tremblingly, and said slowly: "That day, Prince Shotoku took the Tang Army prisoners to the Tang Army's camp, and asked to see Qin Mu, the son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty..."

Immediately afterwards, the messenger recounted what had happened to Emperor Tuigu.

Listened to his retelling.

Emperor Tuigu and the ministers were all in disbelief.

They were in the same mood as Prince Shotoku at that time.

They couldn't figure out what kind of hatred Qin Mu had with the Wa Kingdom that made him so flatly reject the Wa Kingdom's surrender.

Qin Mu had never met them, and there were still diplomatic contacts between the Wa Kingdom and the Tang Dynasty.

What kind of deep hatred made Qin Mu insist on not dying?

Emperor Tuigu rubbed his temples, thinking about Qin Mu.

What did she think, why didn't she understand, when did Qin Mu and the Wa Kingdom intersect?

Emperor Tuigu was thinking.

Another messenger entered the palace.

"Refer to His Majesty the Emperor, Yong'an City's urgent report, the Tang army broke through the Zhenshan Pass five days ago, and the road was like a broken bamboo, and it even took down 23 towns in ten cities in our country."

"Now, Qin Mu is leading the Tang army towards Fujiwara-kyo."

"After seven days, the Tang army will come to Fujiwara Kyo."

heard.

Emperor Tuigu and the ministers in the palace were surprised again.

"This...how can this be done? Our Wa Kingdom is no match for Datang at all, and Qin Mu forbids us to surrender...this...this is to put our Wa Kingdom to death..."

"I don't know where the great hatred between the son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty and the Wa Kingdom came from. This is the first time I've heard that surrender is not allowed. Didn't Tubo and Tuyuhun both merge into the Tang Dynasty? Why can't the Wa Kingdom be alone?"

"Alas... Great God Amaterasu, open your eyes and protect your people... We... We are about to perish..."

"At worst, we will fight with Tang Jun. We are all carrying a head on one shoulder. I don't believe it. Can he fight Tang Jun with iron? Even if we kill them all, we will kill that Shura son-in-law!"

In the hall, all the ministers sighed in low voices, each wailing.

Now there is only one way in front of Wa country.

That's the way to hell.

boom!

Pushing the ancient emperor to shoot the case.

"All right!"

"Stop arguing!"

"Look at each of you, what do you look like?"

"The Tang army is about to approach the city. You don't want to retreat from the enemy. Why are you crying and howling here?"

"If the Tang Dynasty fights, we will continue. Even if we die, we will die on the way to charge, not in this Fujiwara capital, above this hall, and die like a fool!"

Emperor Tuigu looked at the ministers in the palace and scolded loudly.

Although she is a daughter, the country of Wa is in peril, and she must support it.

Listening to Emperor Tuigu's scolding.

All the ministers in the palace wiped away their tears.

"His Majesty the Emperor is right, if we die, we will die on the way to charge!"

"Fight it! We fought Tang Jun! Even if you die, it won't make Tang Jun feel better!"

"Your Majesty, my subordinates are willing to lead our Japanese iron cavalry to fight the Tang army to the death."

After a reprimand from Emperor Tuigu.

All the ministers in the palace put away their miserable feelings, and now grief and anger are useless, all they can do is put away their sorrow, take up weapons and fight Datang to the death.

Followed by.

Emperor Tuigu began to order.

"Hayato Sugiyama, go and inform the guards of the cities in the Tokaido, gather all the troops to Fujiwara-kyo as quickly as possible, and tell them that if Fujiwara-kyo falls, the country of Wa will cease to exist."

"Yes, my subordinates take orders."

"Iwamiya Takeshi, the Emperor ordered you to be the Great General of the Wa Kingdom. From now on, all the troops of the Wa Kingdom will be under your command. The Emperor does not require you to defeat the Tang army. You only need to build Fujiwara Kyo into an iron wall and extend the war indefinitely. , as long as we delay until the Tang army runs out of follow-up food and grass, they will have no choice but to withdraw."

"Yes, my subordinates take orders."

"Shota Mikasa, you go and mobilize all the people of the Wa Kingdom that can be mobilized, let them participate in the defense of Fujiwara-kyo, and release the news that Qin Mu is going to slaughter the country, so that the people will share our hatred and fight against the enemy together."

"Yes, my subordinates take orders."

"Tianchigen, my emperor..."

Emperor Tuigu calmed down, and a series of military orders came from the palace.

at this time.

She has only one idea, and that is to use all available power to fight a protracted war with Tang Jun.

Emperor Tuigu wanted to drag Tang Jun to death under Fujiwara Kyoto.

Not that she was entirely sure of it.

Rather, apart from this, she really couldn't think of any way to stop Tang Jun's footsteps.

Fujiwara Kyo entered a state of preparation for war, from Emperor Tuiko to the people in the city.

Everyone is waiting for the storm to come.

......

Tokaido.

On the official road leading to Fujiwara Kyo.

Tang Jun is marching steadily.

In the past few days, no Japanese pirate army came to attack.

All the cities and towns Tang Jun passed by were very quiet.

lean less.

The scout came to Qin Mu's side to report back.

"My son-in-law."

"Soldiers and males in all the cities of the Wa country are all moving closer to Fujiwara Kyo."

"All the forests for a hundred miles around Fujiwara Kyo have been cut down."

"Looking at it like this, Emperor Tuigu intends to use the power of the whole country to defend Fujiwara Kyo to the death."

The words fall.

Qin Mu nodded.

He also thought that Emperor Tuigu would send someone to ask for surrender again.

However, judging from this posture, she should know Qin Mu's determination.

This is also good, save yourself from humiliation.

Chapter 592 : Strong Wall and Clear Field (3/5)

on the official road.

Xue Rengui rode beside Qin Mu, holding a big halberd in his hand.

"Young master, that's good too. Emperor Tuigu gathered us all in Fujiwara-kyo, and it will save us from running around."

"Honestly speaking, the Japanese pirates' combat effectiveness is really mediocre. It is far behind the Turks and Tubo, and even Tuyuhun can't keep up."

"I don't know where they got the courage to challenge me, the Great Tang Guowei."

these days.

Xue Rengui and Pei Xingjian became war lunatics, fighting against each other, and they only picked Japanese pirates at the commander level.

However, there are too few people in Wa Kingdom who can compete with them.

So in the past few days, the two have been thinking about the battle of Fujiwara Kyo.

Now the generals with relatively strong combat power in the Wa Kingdom have all gathered in Fujiwara Kyo.

After listening to Xue Rengui's words.

Qin Mu said indifferently: "The population of the Wa Kingdom is not large. You see that the total strength of Jiangzhou Zhuo and Emperor Tuigu combined is worth more than 20."

"Even so, the strength of this army is still relatively weak. I estimate that the current strength of Fujiwara Kyo is only about [-]."

"It's not a great enemy."

In recent years, Xue Rengui didn't fight many battles with Qin Mu, but every time he gnawed hard bones.

Especially the battle against the Turks in the ninth year of Wude was really cruel.

But now that Datang has such a big killer as artillery and crossbow bolts, even if it is to attack the city, it will not cause too much damage.

Followed by.

Qin Mu continued: "By the way, did you send a letter back to inform Duoduo?"

"Don't worry, young master." Xue Rengui responded, "After capturing Zhenshan Pass, I will send people back to Datang."

"It is estimated that after we captured the Wa Kingdom, the people sent by Qian Duoduo will come."

"Master, are there really mountains of gold and mountains of silver in this country of Wa?"

Xue Rengui looked at Qin Mu and asked in a daze.

He knew that Qin Mu was a person who could not get ahead without profit, and that Li Er came to the Wa country this time for the sake of gold and silver.

"What are mountains of gold and silver?" Qin Mu said indifferently, "It's just a vein with relatively rich reserves of gold and silver mines."

"However, it is enough for us. Mining is more practical than doing business."

"Mining, smelting, refining, casting..."

"When it comes to Datang, it's all a piece of real gold and silver."

As Qin Mu said, he secretly rejoiced, this is the only thing that can make him happy now.

With the mining veins, his pension money will be almost saved.

When Xue Rengui heard this, his eyes flickered.

That's a good relationship, he doesn't have to do anything in his life, just hugging Qin Mu's thigh is enough.

I have been with Qin Mu for a long time.

Xue Rengui also likes the carefree life.

But, this is living with money.

......

After five days.

Fujiwara Kyo.

Twenty miles away from the western suburbs, the Tang army set up camp here.
