The Rhapsody of Mounted Blade Players

When the Japanese generals saw a group of elite enemy infantry coming toward them, they immediately sent their samurai to intercept them.

These samurai were relatively strong among the Japanese soldiers, so they were all equipped with iron armor. The samurai swords in their hands were obviously carefully crafted, and they all shone with a silver metallic cold light.

The two sides soon collided hard. The Japanese warriors were holding samurai swords and slashing at Li Kui and the others. Some warriors at the rear were holding long spears and stabbing through the gaps between their companions in front of them. Attack with a spear.

After Li Kui took a few blows, he found that although the samurai swords were sharp, they were unable to break through the defense of his heavy steel plate armor. Those spears that pierced the armor would only splash a few sparks at most.

So he simply ignored the enemy's attack, wielded the ax in his hand with all his strength, and chopped down the Japanese warriors who were intercepting him one by one.

The crossbowmen and ordinary infantrymen at the foot of the mountain were also quickly following up. The crossbowmen began to fire arrows continuously as they advanced to support Li Kui and the others who were fighting in the front.

Most of the armors equipped by the Japanese warriors were just iron armor. Facing the strong bows and crossbows of the Qinglong Empire, they were completely blocked. Every time a round of arrows fell, many Japanese warriors were shot down.

A large number of Japanese warriors died, causing the blood on the ground to quickly form small streams, which continued to flow down the mountain. This made the hillside extremely slippery. Many soldiers during Li Kui's advance were affected by the slippery process. He fell several times on the ground.

However, everyone's morale was very high. After all, the Japanese people were being beaten back steadily by them. At this time, they were only more than a hundred meters away from the top of the mountain.

When the Japanese generals saw that the Han infantry was so powerful, actually killing tens of thousands of warriors along the way, they were almost killed in front of them, and they all panicked.

Some of the Japanese generals suggested retreating down the mountain to avoid the edge of the enemy's elite heavy infantry, but other Japanese generals said that they would probably encounter Han heavy cavalry attacks after going down the mountain, and they would only die more. quick.

So after arguing for a while, these Japanese generals finally decided to stay on the top of the mountain and defend. At this time, for the sake of their own lives, these Japanese generals also sent out their most elite soldiers to stop Li Kui and the others. These are the elite heavy infantry of the Qinglong Empire.

Unfortunately, before these hundreds of elite warriors could take action, the ordinary infantry and crossbowmen who had followed appeared. Naturally, the crossbowmen fired several rounds of arrow rain, killing nearly half of them at once. Elite personal warriors.

Then the ordinary infantrymen each held phalanx spears more than five meters long, laid out a more strict spear formation than the previous Japanese Ashigaru, and slowly advanced towards the elite warriors.

Before those elite warriors could reach the enemy, they were stabbed to death by the phalanx spears of astonishing length.

When the Japanese generals saw that the last elite had been wiped out, they wanted to escape. Unfortunately, they were caught by Tongtong before they could run down the mountain. Several of them still wanted to resist, but were cut into two by the violent Li Kui. After Duan and the remaining Japanese generals saw this terrible scene, they all became well-behaved and did not dare to continue to resist.

In addition to these Japanese generals, the army led by Song Jiang also captured more than 80,000 Japanese prisoners in this battle, and less than 10,000 escaped. The rest were basically killed on the spot, and a few who were seriously injured were also killed by Song Jiang. I thought it was too much trouble and I cut him off.

After all, after he finished fighting here, he was still planning to support Lu Junyi's side! Lu Junyi was facing a Korean army with more than 200,000 troops!

So after hastily cleaning up the battlefield, Song Jiang was ready to leave for Qingzhou. As for the Japanese prisoners, he sent five thousand militiamen to escort them back to Dengzhou City.

After more than three days, Song Jiang finally led his army to the vicinity of Qingzhou City. As soon as he got close, he heard a faint sound of fighting.

"Brother Lu must be leading the army to fight with the Koreans. Brothers, if you speed up the pace, we will rush over to support and attack the Koreans from both sides!" After Song Jiang heard the sound of fighting, he immediately judged the general situation and shouted at his hands. The soldier ordered.

So the entire army began to move faster, and it took less than half an hour to reach the battlefield.

As a result, when they arrived, they found that the battle seemed to be over, and a large number of Goryeo soldiers were fleeing in all directions.

After Song Jiang and the others were stunned for a moment, they immediately helped capture the defeated soldiers.

After the capture was over, both sides found that more than 100,000 Korean prisoners had been captured, and the number was almost close to 110,000.

Lu Junyi, who had personally fought against those Koreans, said that these Korean soldiers were a bunch of trash. He had just fought for a while and killed thousands of them! These Koreans immediately collapsed.

A non-commissioned officer next to him said that General Lu Junyi killed those thousands of people by himself, and those they killed have not yet been taken into account! Therefore, it is normal for those Koreans to be frightened and collapse. After all, Lu Junyi ran directly into the enemy's formation, and then killed thousands of enemy troops in less than ten minutes like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves!

This is like an unparalleled performance. Who wouldn't be scared after seeing this!

Song Jiang also later said that the Japanese were not very forbidden to fight, especially the cavalry was too weak. Hua Rong and the others immediately destroyed them in a single charge, but the so-called samurai still had some fighting ability. , during the fierce battle with Li Kui and the others, the casualties were almost half, and there was no sign of collapse. In the end, if the Japanese generals had not been frightened and fled first, it seemed that the Japanese warriors could have fought until only the last one was left.

What both sides have in common is that they both captured a lot of prisoners after the war. Song Jiang captured more than 80,000 prisoners, and Lu Junyi captured nearly 110,000 prisoners. The total number was almost 200,000.

So many prisoners must be properly placed, otherwise chaos will inevitably occur.

So the two of them wrote a battle report and sent it to Ye Tianlong, the emperor of the Qinglong Empire. One was to report to him the war here, and the other was to ask him for instructions on how to deal with these prisoners of war.

Ye Tianlong was already on his way back to the court at this time. He was very happy after receiving the good news from Song Jiang. After all, if the two armies of Goryeo and Japan did not land, it would always be a hidden danger to float outside. , now that he was annihilated, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

As for the captives from Goryeo and Japan, Ye Tianlong directly replied to Song Jiang and asked Song Jiang to send these guys to various mines for mining, or to build roads and dams. Anyway, there is no dirty work. All jobs can be arranged for these prisoners. After all, who dared these guys to invade his Qinglong Empire! These guys deserve to be exhausted to death by then.

At the same time, Ye Tianlong also feels that his next step is to vigorously develop the navy. When he was on the Calradia continent, Ye Tianlong easily defeated the navies of other countries with the battleship Hailong, so the scale of the navy has not been expanded much.

As a result, those high-tech creations could no longer be used, and the Hailong was forced to lie down. As a result, Ye Tianlong could only use the wooden warships in his hands to form a naval force.

However, these wooden warships are more complicated to control than iron-clad ships like the Hailong. In addition, time is limited. The navy of the Qinglong Empire is still very small. There are only a dozen or so warships capable of forming combat effectiveness. It is not enough to protect the long coastline of the Qinglong Empire.

Therefore, Ye Tianlong really felt that he needed to expand the navy. In this way, once the navy is formed, it will not only be able to protect the waters of the Qinglong Empire and firmly block out cross-sea enemies such as Goryeo and Japan, but it can also rely on warships to carry soldiers across the sea and land in the rear of the Jin Kingdom. sneak attack. Or simply transport troops to Goryeo and Japan to completely occupy these two small countries that dare to challenge his Qinglong Empire.

When thinking of this, Ye Tianlong suddenly remembered that there seemed to be many gold and silver mines with huge reserves in the Japanese country! It just so happens that he is a little short of money recently. After the navy is expanded, he should be the first to deal with the Japanese! When the time comes, he will occupy this island country and capture all the people on it to mine in the mines, or throw them into farms for him to farm, providing him with a steady stream of gold, silver, and food.

In this way, Ye Tianlong unknowingly rode his war horse back to Tokyo City while thinking about his next strategy in his heart.

Here in Tokyo City, his most trusted master, Li Rufeng, leads an army of 50,000 to garrison. Li Rufeng, whose cultivation has reached the second level of Xiantian, is guarding here. Those Xiao Xiaogang who dare to cause trouble will be suppressed by him as soon as they show up. She was here, and the city of Tokyo had been very stable during Ye Tianlong's expedition.

However, after Ye Tianlong returned to Tokyo this time, he also heard a piece of news that surprised him. That is, many former ministers and scholars of the Song Dynasty actually wanted to persuade Ye Tianlong through Li Rufeng to let these former Officials and scholars of the imperial court could also serve as officials in the Qinglong Empire.

The reason why Ye Tianlong found this news surprising was that when he first entered Tokyo City, these guys were secretly calling him a rebel and a pariah! All of them simply looked down on the olive branch extended to them by Ye Tianlong, and did not want to serve as officials in the Qinglong Empire.

Among the few people who were willing to serve as officials, Ye Tianlong checked the history books and found that they were all treacherous officials. Therefore, in the end, Ye Tianlong was unable to recruit an official from the Song Dynasty, which directly led to the current shortage of officials in his hands.

Seeing Ye Tianlong's surprised look, Li Rufeng explained to him on the side. It turned out that it was because these Song Dynasty officials saw that the army of the Qinglong Empire led by Ye Tianlong fought in succession and even repelled the Jin and Xixia people. , and recovered most of the lost territory of the Song Dynasty, which made them feel that the Qinglong Empire might really succeed! Therefore, many of them who still wanted to have an official career began to think about using connections to find an official position in the Qinglong Empire.

After listening to Li Rufeng's explanation, Ye Tianlong nodded to express his understanding, and then he asked Li Rufeng about the situation of the players.

Due to the fall of the real world, many players had a mental breakdown because they could not bear such a huge blow.

So Ye Tianlong had no choice but to leave these guys in Tokyo to recuperate, hoping that as time goes by, these guys can slowly recover.

And now he also learned from Li Rufeng that many of those players had indeed gradually recovered, but there were still some who seemed to have completely degenerated. They were drunk and dreaming all day long in Tokyo, lingering in brothels and casinos, turning their previous The rewards obtained for meritorious deeds are almost gone.

For this situation, neither Ye Tianlong nor Li Rufeng has any good solution, but those players who have recovered can start to go back to work. They can be placed as officials in various places and monitor those in the Song Dynasty. Officials, lest these guys deceive the superiors and cause trouble for him.

That's right, Ye Tianlong has decided to recruit some Song Dynasty officials and scholars to work for him. After all, his territory is too big now, and he simply cannot train so many officials to help him manage various places in a short period of time, so now We can only temporarily use these former officials to make a transition.

After talking about these official matters, Li Rufeng told Ye Tianlong another personal matter, that is, everyone in the Qinglong Empire now feels that Ye Tianlong should choose some women to enrich his harem. If these women can give birth to several boys for Ye Tianlong, If so, then the Qinglong Empire can be regarded as having a successor. There is no need to worry that if something happens to Ye Tianlong, the Qinglong Empire will not even have an heir.

However, Ye Tianlong feels that he has so many things to be busy with now, and he simply does not have the energy to draft women. Besides, he can't look down on ordinary women now. If he really wants to find a woman, at least he must He can only find someone whose cultivation level is similar to his. Otherwise, he is afraid that he will injure the other person if he exerts force when going to bed. He must always be careful. This would be so uncomfortable!

After Li Rufeng heard his apprentice's concerns, he couldn't help laughing, and then said that if he said this, Ye Tianlong might only be able to choose women among his troops. After all, ordinary women would not practice martial arts at all, for fear of hurting themselves. She was trained to be muscular and tall like a man, so in the end no man was willing to marry her.

But soon Li Rufeng stopped laughing because she found that her apprentice's eyes were suddenly fixed on her. At this time, she suddenly realized that she seemed to be one of the few female warriors whose cultivation was comparable to hers. ! Isn't the other party interested in me?

At this time, Li Rufeng also realized that she was not too young. Although after breaking through to the innate realm, her longevity increased greatly, making her seem younger than before, but this could not change that she was an old woman who was approaching seventy years old. . Most people probably wouldn't like a woman as old as her. I just don't know what I, a closed disciple, think about, but he still has thoughts about her master and wants to be a rebel disciple.

After a period of time, the Qinglong Empire entered a state of recuperation. Although there were still some minor conflicts in various places, most of them were small-scale battles with less than a thousand people. However, there were no major wars. The entire country began to Under Ye Tianlong's strong intervention, he began to quickly restore his national strength.
