Chapter 634 The Monan Princes Association
In Japan, Hokkaido, various daimyos gathered their troops and attacked the Emirati here.
For the Japanese Daming, the Hokkien belongs to the barbarians. The various Damings took this opportunity to compete for the position of General of the Conquering the Yi.
The Hokkaido was defeated by the Daming coalition in the battle in Hokkaido.
However, after Takeda Shingen's army won the attack on the Hokkien, Takeda Shingen learned that his territory was invaded by Oda Nobunaga's forces. Takeda Shingen was furious and immediately led the army back to the territory.
The threat of the Ekimai was lifted, and Oda Nobunaga ordered the legion left behind by Nakanobu and the legion left behind by Tokugawa Ieyasu at the first time. Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu teleported to the Mikawa Kingdom one earlier than Takeda Shingen to join forces to attack Takeda Shingen.
Takeda Shingen was severely damaged by the Han Empire in the third national war. At this time, Oda Nobunaga immediately turned against him after conquering the Hokkien, and the two sides suddenly broke out in a decisive battle!
A joint battle that determines the world began under the planning of Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu.
Thinking of the already growing Oda Nobunaga power, Takeda Nobunaga had to find a way to fight Oda Nobunaga quickly.
Oda Nobunaga had conquered all the small forces around him that opposed him, and even Nagatozo Motoki, on Shikoku Island, surrendered to Oda Nobunaga.
The sudden outbreak of war seemed to be initiated by Oda Nobunaga, but in fact it was Takeda Shingen's last resort.
If you continue to delay, the economic gap between the two sides will become larger and larger until it cannot turn around.
Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu's coalition forces totaled 180,000, while Takeda Nobunaga could only send 70,000 troops to deal with the offensives of Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu.
Oda Nobunaga met with his allies Tokugawa Ieyasu. Oda Nobunaga commanded Kinoshita Hideyoshi, Takenaka Half-Benwei, Shibata Katsue, Takigawa Ichie and other Warring States military generals, Genyo Yoshiko, Genaki Raicho, Sakauma Takigata and other ancient military generals went on the expedition. Behind Tokugawa Ieyasu was Honta Tadaka, known as the number one general of the Warring States Period, holding a dragonfly in his hand.
"Ishiyama Honanji, Kishu Saga, Asai, Asakura were all destroyed by me. Our Ishitaka totaled at least five times that of Takeda Shingen, or even more. No matter how fierce the tiger of Kasumi was, it would not be our opponent. The whole world would be my hands."
Oda Nobunaga rode a war horse and stood side by side with Tokugawa Ieyasu. There were hundreds of military generals of all sizes behind him, looking at the continuous army marching towards Takeda Shingen's sphere of influence.
Because the players' joining brought new concepts of conquest, the great names of the Japanese Warring States Period have realized that it is not just about making the other party surrender, but it is best to destroy the forces that are hostile to them as much as possible, otherwise it will be a capricious betrayal.
Now no daimyo can bear the betrayal of retainers and other daimyos.
Tokugawa Ieyasu is carefully dealing with his relationship with Oda Nobunaga.
Oda Nobunaga's power expanded rapidly due to the support of players, while Tokugawa Ieyasu's sphere of influence was sandwiched between Oda Nobunaga and Takeda Shingen, and it was difficult to expand and could only wait for an opportunity.
Oda Nobunaga had conquered Gyeonggi, Kii Peninsula, Shikoku Island and other places, and had several times that of Tokugawa Ieyasu and Takeda Shingen, which was the grain output.
Oda Nobunaga has been avoiding direct conflicts with Takeda Shingen. After breaking the encirclement, he finally attacked Takeda Shingen.
The economic gap between Takeda Shingen and him has reached several times.
"This is a musket from Seed Island, and there are so many!"
Tokugawa Ieyasu noticed that Oda Nobunaga's army, in addition to the standing army, was also equipped with a large number of Seed Island iron cannons!
The specialty of Seed Island is iron cannons. Even the Shenji Camp under Chu Tian’s command has purchased thousands of iron cannons.
In fact, in "Lord", the price of a mezzanine is very expensive. Chu Tian only had the money to buy iron cannons from the Seed Island of Japan after discovering the Jiaodong Gold Mine.
After all, Chu Tian still has a million troops, hundreds of thousands of officials, and errands need to be raised.
Ordinary Japanese daimyos can't afford thousands of coercion guns, while Oda Nobunaga has firearms and the number of coercion guns equipped is at least a few thousand!
When Tokugawa Ieyasu saw Oda Nobunaga who was gradually becoming rich, he probably knew that Oda Nobunaga had developed silently during this period and had grown into a giant after he had annexed the small forces around him.
In Japan, which has a population of at least 20 to 30 million, Oda Nobunaga has a population of about 10 million. The accumulated population advantage is unimaginable. Even if a war of attrition is fought, it can drag down the tiger Takeda Shingen.
In addition, Oda Nobunaga also has a powerful firearm unit, which is Oda Nobunaga's special army.
"I understand why you have such a strong determination to win. It seems that this time we can take the tiger's head. As long as the tiger dies, no one can stop you."
Tokugawa Ieyasu's tone was already a little respectful.
With Oda Nobunaga's ability, combined with the accumulated talents and population advantages, it is basically a matter of time before it can unify Japan and become the general of the conquering the barbarians.
Without the Honnoji Incident, no one could stop Oda Nobunaga from becoming a worldly person.
Takeda Shingen had a chance at one time, but he fought with Kenshin Uesugi and was severely injured by the Han Empire during the national war, giving Oda Nobunaga time to rise.
The big devil with players' support is already unstoppable.
Of course, this is in Japan.
"The Han Empire is already preparing to expedition to the north of the desert..."
On the way to attack Takeda Shingen, Oda Nobunaga received information from the Han Empire - the Han Empire planned to directly destroy the world boss Temujin Mongol Empire in the barbarian camp!
According to Oda Nobunaga's vision, the ideal ending should be that Temujin and the Han Empire both suffered losses, and then he would benefit from it after unifying Japan. However, the princes of the Han Empire were ready to destroy the Mongol Empire less than a year after the Fourth National War!
In less than a year, the civilizations that fell under the princes of the Han Empire included the Chagatai Khanate, Ogedei Khanate, Fuyu Kingdom, and Xixia Kingdom.
If the Mongol Empire was defeated, the fourth national war might end early, and it would have completely destroyed Oda Nobunaga's plan.
"If the Han Empire can really destroy the Mongol Empire, then there is no need for us. For the sake of the present, we will take down the tiger of Jiafei and the dragon of Echizen as soon as possible, and issue an order for the world to end the troubled times."
Oda Nobunaga was beyond reach, and he might not be qualified to be involved in the peak battle between the Han Empire and the Mongol Empire.
Whether it is the Han Empire or the Mongol Empire, its combat power is stronger than that of Japan. Even if the entire Japanese daimyo joins forces, it may not be able to gain benefits in the battle with Temujin, especially on the grassland.
When Kinisha Hideyoshi heard the news, she couldn't help but secretly complain: "If the four islands were unified at this time, it might be the time to seize the Koryo country."
In the Longcheng of Monan, Li Mu and Di Qing were training. The Monan lord formed the Monan Legion and selected elite troops from the Monan cavalry, resulting in a total of 150,000 cavalry, of which Li Mu commanded 100,000 and Di Qing commanded 50,000.
This time, the Monan Legion was ready to cooperate with the expeditionary forces of other princes to sweep the north of Mo.
The Han Empire's princes planned to sweep the north of the desert. The mobilization of more than one million troops could not conceal the strategy, and Temujin had already noticed it.
Even if Temujin noticed it, the princes of the Han Empire still followed the steps, intending to sweep the northern part of the desert with absolute strength and destroy the Mongol Empire, which was posing a huge threat.
"Yangzhou Mu Tongque began to teleport his troops here in a month."
Fan Zhongyan came to Li Mu and Di Qing and greeted them in advance.
Li Mu asked, "How many soldiers he plans to send?"
"About 100,000."
"I'm afraid there are millions of troops going to the expedition."
"If the road is not long, there would be more than one million troops dispatched."
"So many soldiers and horses are expeditioning to the desert, which is really a grand event."
Fan Zhongyan, Li Mu, and Di Qing discussed the expedition to Mobei, and mentioned that a million troops were attacking Mobei, and their minds were rippling.
In the main world, there were few Han Empires who used such a huge expeditionary force.
The last time he expeditioned Luntai, the Han Empire only sent 500,000 troops. This time, in order to sweep away the northern desert, Temujin, the Han Empire directly used a million troops!
A million troops are already the limit of supply for the princes of the Han Empire. If there are more troops and food and grass, they will only starve to death.
The way of replenishing cattle and sheep by plundering cattle and sheep is not realistic.
If one million troops rely on plunder, as long as Temujin ordered the herdsmen to retreat further north, they would still starve to death.
The ideal way to replenish food, grazing and plundering are to combine it.
The main reason why Huo Qubing can successfully attack is that he carries elite cavalry, with few troops and very little supply pressure.
In order to prepare for this expedition, the cattle and sheep raised by the lord of the southern Moon will be treated as rations and driven by the expeditionary force to go to the northern Moon.
This marching method is almost the same as the way the Mongol Empire expeditions.
On the safe side, soldiers still transport food and grass as reserves.
The teleportation array of Monan Longcheng flashed with white light, and Yangzhou Mu Tongque and several generals arrived at Monan Longcheng first to discuss the issue of supply for the legion.
Sun Jian followed him, and a brave general was also following Tongque.
This general was majestic and looked at Di Qing and others, as if he was a little contemptuous.
This is a powerful general.
Di Qing could probably feel that the military generals had a great power, and they were mostly powerful generals regarded as guards by Tongque.
Ordinary princes would carry a military general with extremely high force around them to serve as their own guard to prevent them from being killed by enemy cavalry. The powerful general in front of them was the guard of Tongque.
In addition to Sun Jian, Xie Xuan and the guards, Tongque also brought Song Jiang. With Song Jiang's characteristics, it can attract many peasant army-type generals to surrender, which has additional attraction to the generals in Liangshanbo.
"Have you agreed on how to march?"
The bronze bird took the initiative to find the lord Liu Hu of the Monan.
Liu Hu replied: "The princes have not arrived yet."
"Why haven't they come yet?"
"The time is agreed today, but it has not yet arrived."
When expeditioning to the north of Mobei, for fairness, the princes of the Han Empire chose to discuss the deployment of the expedition to the north of Mobei in Longcheng, Monan.
Monan Longcheng is currently a neutral city.
"Bronze Bird? I didn't expect you to be the first prince to come here."
Wang Defa, the governor of Jiaozhou, arrived, followed by generals such as Li Dingguo and Fu Youde.
"I didn't participate in the expedition to the Western Regions. How could I miss such a grand event during this expedition to Mobei? Moreover, I am missing points from the navy's drawings, so I want to go to Mobei to get points. What about the other princes?"
"They have not arrived yet. These people have much more pomp than us."
Tongque and Wang Defa waited for a while, and the punctual Lao Qin brought Lu Bu and Yang Dayan to Longcheng, Monan.
"You have pacified Shanyue?"
Lao Qin knew that Tongque and Wang Defa were facing many rebellions from Shanyue, so he asked about the situation where they pacified Shanyue.
"Shanyue has a population of more than one million and lives in deep mountains and forests, which is difficult to completely pacify, but counties have been ordered to suppress and divide Shanyue from time to time."
Tongque also had a headache when he mentioned the large population of Shanyue forces.
Soon, Mingguan also came, bringing Chang Yuchun and Yao Guangxiao.
Chang Yuchun was fighting all the time, standing there, emitting a solemn and murderous aura.
"The affairs of Liao and Jin have finally come to an end."
Mingguan is a little tired.
The Jin Kingdom was severely damaged by it, and the Liao Kingdom was forced to withdraw from the Fuyu Kingdom. Mingguan finally had time to reorganize Liaodong and other places.
