Text Chapter 703 Zhao Hongyu¡¯s plan

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Six thousand troops were still lacking in strength to attack a big city like Edo.

    However, Hattori Kizo did not dwell on this issue.

    After a day of fighting, Hattori Onizou had an intuitive understanding of the combat effectiveness of His Highness's soldiers, as well as those 'advanced' sharp weapons.

    ¡°If the wrong ones are attacking Edo and they use such weapons, then there is nothing to worry about.

    A single bombardment would frighten the nobles of Edo even if they think about it.

    Hattori Kizo is very clear about the virtues of those people.

    An alliance under the city is not impossible.

    As long as the army surrounds Edo Castle, these guys will definitely do some dirty things in order to survive.

    However, what Hattori Kizo is worried about is that according to His Highness's plan, he will have to face the endless stream of reinforcements attracted by the crusade, which is the most troublesome.

    ¡°Hasn¡¯t His Highness considered that they are foreigners after all, and they are fighting away from home here?

    Compared to the Shogunate, which has the home field advantage, it still has this huge disadvantage.

    If nothing else, the loss of troops alone is enough to give His Highness a headache.

    ¡°After all, if one¡¯s side loses soldiers, they cannot be replaced.

    On the other hand, on the side of the crusade, they can get effective reinforcements of soldiers.

    So if you think about it this way, your own disadvantage is still huge.

    The expeditionary army can afford losses, but our own side cannot afford losses.

    This is the biggest problem that Hattori Kizo is worried about.

    He must make it clear to Zhao Hongyu, otherwise it will be troublesome if the problem cannot be solved by then.

    In today's battle, our side received two thousand reinforcements, but in the end it was still a little less.

    Of course, it depends on how you compare.

    If it is compared to the current crusade army on the other side, that is enough.

    However, considering that Zhao Hongyu wants to use those on the opposite side as bait to attract more enemies, this issue must be carefully considered.

    So, when Hattori Kizo raised this question and worry, everyone's faces showed deep worry.

    Even Yuji Kawabe frowned.

    Yes, Kawabe Yuuji also considered this issue.

    To say that Zhao Hongyu¡¯s plan is good, the possibility of implementation is very high, and the success rate is also high.

    However, for these people, this plan is still a bit risky.

    After all, the crusade army can get an endless supply of troops, but their side cannot.

    "Your Highness, Master Guizang is right to worry about it." Master Wang finally spoke at this time.  On today's battlefield, Master Wang has been worried, but he has not said anything in order not to affect the morale of the soldiers.  Since the reinforcements from the Gurkha cavalry, he felt a lot more relieved.

    "However, he never imagined that His Highness would suddenly come up with such a plan.

    So, he had to speak.

    "The expeditionary army can receive an endless supply of troops, which is one of our weaknesses. Our soldiers are losing one by one and cannot be replenished at all. Therefore, I think it is undesirable to engage in a war of attrition."

    What Master Wang said is very clear, but any fool can hear it clearly.

    Actually, Master Wang does not recommend continuing according to Zhao Hongyu¡¯s plan. After all, they also have weaknesses.

    If the enemy seizes this weakness and engages them in a war of attrition, they will not be able to fight it anyway.

    Even if you have to trade one for ten, it is not worth it.

    Actually, they didn¡¯t know that the His Highness they had taken refuge in had a cheating device in his hand.

    After all, Zhao Hongyu would not tell them about his advantages.

    "Is this what everyone thinks?"

    After Zhao Hongyu, Hattori Onizou and Mrs. Wang finished speaking, he looked around at everyone and then asked.

    Everyone nodded again and again, indicating that their own intentions were ghosts, and Master Wang was almost the same.

    After Zhao Hongyu received everyone¡¯s replies, he did not show any displeasure.

    You should know that it is acceptable for everyone not to understand him.

    Whoever is something he can't say so clearly.

    This is not the caseIt's a matter of method.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    Zhao Hongyu coughed, and then said to everyone: "Actually, I know that what everyone is worried about is correct, and I won't deny it. But I made this guy with my own considerations."

    "Your Highness, no matter what, if the troops cannot be effectively replenished, no matter what the plan is, it will not be feasible. This is our weakness, and your Highness must consider it carefully."

    Hattori Kizo kowtowed and reminded Zhao Hongyu loudly.

    Zhao Hongyu smiled bitterly, he finally understood the power of advice today.

    And, to be fair, Hattori Onizou¡¯s reminder is not wrong, he is also doing it for his own good and everyone else¡¯s.

    "Kizo, please listen to me slowly first. I am not a fool. Of course I know where our weaknesses and weaknesses are. But since I have made this plan, I must have my reasons. Wait until you finish listening to what I have to say.  After I say it, you will understand.¡±

    oh!

    Hattori Kizo then straightened up again and sat down on his knees.

    Everyone looked at Zhao Hongyu, waiting for him to continue.

    Everyone wants to know what kind of confidence this young His Highness has to insist on executing this plan even when his troops cannot be replenished.

    "I have received a secret report that a group of reinforcements have been dispatched from China and are on their way. It is estimated that they will arrive off the coast of Osaka tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. The strength of this group of reinforcements is about 5,000 to 10,000 people. This is where I am confident."

    Wow!

    There are reinforcements ranging from 5,000 to 10,000 people. It¡¯s strange that His Highness has such confidence.

    However, it seems that this amount of reinforcements is still not enough.

    After hearing that there were reinforcements, everyone's expressions relaxed.

    However, everyone soon thought that this military strength seemed to be much inferior to that of the Japanese army.

    If Zhao Hongyu¡¯s plan is implemented, the shogunate will definitely be furious.

    At that time, there will definitely be more reinforcements and reinforcements coming here.

    And at that time, their pressure would definitely be much greater than it is now.

    "Your Highness, how long will it take to transport reinforcements from the country to arrive here? If we can get a steady stream of reinforcements, I think we can still compete with the shogunate."

    Hattori Onizou said.

    When he said this, he first confirmed the reinforcements, but he also asked whether these reinforcements would be available in the future, and whether their reinforcements were guaranteed.

    "It's very far. It takes eight months to reach here by sea from China, so it is difficult for us to get strong domestic support." Zhao Hongyu replied.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Oh my God!

    The journey at sea alone will take eight months.

    It seems that the idea of ??getting additional troops from the Song Empire is very unrealistic.

    Zhao Hongyu saw everyone's disappointment, and he continued: "However, don't be too disappointed. In fact, after we have this support force, the plan can still be implemented. After all, what we need is not a national war with Japan. We  What is needed is to capture Edo and force them to sign a city alliance. I think the gentlemen in Edo are afraid of death."

    Zhao Hongyu said the most critical part of the plan.

    Yes, Zhao Hongyu has never thought about starting a national war with the opponent with thousands of people.

    Although he has a cheating device, fighting a national war has its advantages.

    With all that money, he might as well invest and increase the population of China.

    You know, his level will be raised soon.

    Therefore, the main problem at hand is not how to conquer Japan.

    Although Japan is destined to sink, it is definitely not now.

    What he needs now is to have a place to stay in Japan, and then slowly make plans in the future.

    "As long as you upgrade yourself, at worst, you will lose a town mayor. When the time comes, you will find a town mayor to oversee four township heads, and you will definitely be able to cause trouble in Japan."

    Let the genes do this, just enjoy it yourself.

    "Your Highness, what you mean is that we only need to withstand the attack of the crusade for a period of time and wait until things are done in Edo?" Kawabe Yuuji finally spoke at this time.

    And, he directly told Zhao Hongyu¡¯s plan.

    Hearing this, Zhao Hongyu smiled and nodded.Zhao Hongyu still admires Yuji Kawabe's intelligence.

    " Such a person, as long as he behaves like a dog honestly, Zhao Hongyu thinks it doesn't matter if he uses it for a while.

    ??Besides, the Japanese in this era did not have any concept of country.

    They are typical people who have breasts and are mothers, so Zhao Hongyu believes that as long as he gives enough benefits and shows enough strength, it is impossible for a smart guy like Kawabe Yuuji to escape from his grasp.

    ¡°Besides, he will only become stronger and stronger in the future, so he has complete confidence in Kawabe Yuuji.

    "I think His Highness's plan is feasible. With reinforcements, we can withstand the attack of the crusade and its reinforcements for a month. I think everyone has seen today that our army's weapons and artillery are very sharp. The opponent's swords, bows and arrows  Basically, it can¡¯t cause us a lot of casualties, so I support His Highness¡¯s plan.¡±

    Kawabe Yuuji finally saw today's situation. His Highness must stick to his plan.

    But His Highness¡¯s plan is not a random one, it is very feasible.

    ¡°And His Highness is very clear about what he needs, and he is not arrogant about challenging all of Japan.

    So, he felt that he should support it.

    ??Besides, today¡¯s battle during the day was an eye-opener for Kawabe Yuuji.

    Novel tactics, as well as new and sharp weapons.

    With these means, as long as reinforcements arrive, it should not be very difficult to fight against a 20,000-strong crusade.

    It¡¯s just that Yuji Kawabe didn¡¯t know that on the European battlefield, the imperial army had successfully defeated an army of more than 50,000 people with 8,000 infantry.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
