Chapter 2507 When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter; Wu Changkong breaks through.
Although the news didn't arrive as quickly as it did for Wang Changluo, who was nearby, those in Nanping Road who were closely monitoring the battle situation there also got a general idea of what was happening as soon as it occurred.
When Matsushita Iso, who was at the front line, received the news, his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot, as if his ancestors for eighteen generations had died.
The information received by Luowang was accurate; ever since Matsushita Iso and Mutsuhito had their last conversation, they had already made worst-case scenario plans.
Recently, they have been making every effort to mobilize available ships to relocate the overseas Chinese and technical personnel of Nampyong Province. After that, they will begin to relocate as many people as possible.
In addition, it includes various cultural classics, mineral resources, and even a wide variety of other materials.
However, even though I had prepared for the worst, I still couldn't help but feel a chill when the news actually came.
However, Matsushita Iso, as the governor of Nanping Road arranged by Matsushita Ao, was not an incompetent person. He quickly composed himself and acted according to the plan he had discussed with Mutsuhito.
Now that the Eastern Barbarians have been defeated, they shouldn't blame others for turning against them when they're down.
A few days later, with the arrival of a secret order from Matsushita Iso, the commander of the Sun Kingdom's navy immediately invited a group of high-ranking Dongyi naval officers, led by Wang Zhen, to his camp under the pretext of discussing military affairs.
Furthermore, Wang Zhen and his entourage were immediately placed under house arrest. Under the coercion and enticement of the Sun Kingdom, Wang Zhen, the commander of the Eastern Yi navy, had no choice but to choose the lesser of two evils and ordered all the naval officers and soldiers to go ashore, preparing to lead them back to Zhongping Road to support Yelü Abaoji.
The Sun Kingdom is an island nation that places great importance on its navy, and at this time, the Sun Kingdom, which wants to make a large-scale evacuation, desperately needs ships.
Under these circumstances, they naturally set their sights on the warships of the Dongyi Jinghai Navy.
They felt no qualms about attacking this newly formed alliance.
Yelü Abaoji is already on the verge of extinction. What difference does it make who eats the flesh of the Dongyi?
Not to mention, they agreed to the alliance with the Eastern Yi and sent troops to attack Xiping Road. After Han Xin eliminated Yelü Abaoji, he would inevitably use this as a pretext to attack Nanping Road.
Given the current situation, they cannot hold Nanping. This deal has been a huge loss for them, and now they are just trying to minimize their losses.
As for Wang Zhen's navy, if they know what's good for them, Matsushita Iso would naturally not mind letting them return to Zhongping Road, which would strengthen Yelü Abaoji's forces and allow him to delay the Han army for a while longer.
But if they don't know what's good for them, Matsushita Iso wouldn't mind throwing all these naval soldiers into the sea to feed the fish.
Clearly, with the Japanese side acting with a calculated mindset and catching the enemy off guard, their operation proceeded very smoothly, and they managed to take control of the entire East China Sea Fleet's high command in one fell swoop.
After weighing the pros and cons, the high command of the East China Sea Fleet had no choice but to abandon the warships and preserve the naval officers and soldiers.
After all, even if these high-ranking officials weren't controlled, the other side had several times their numbers, not to mention Mo Peng was also there.
However, after weighing the pros and cons, Wang Zhen abandoned the warships and chose to return to Zhongping Road with more than 20,000 naval soldiers to help Yelü Abaoji guard the capital. In the end, he still did not have the opportunity to return to Shangjing Prefecture.
Matsushita Iso was willing to let them go, but that didn't mean the Han Dynasty was willing to do the same.
They had just left Nanping Road and were about to head to Shangjing Prefecture in troop transport vehicles when Gao Xianzhi led 30,000 troops who had been lying in ambush to suddenly attack, catching Wang Zhen completely off guard.
The navy's combat strength on land was already no match for that of infantry and cavalry, and now, having been ambushed, Wang Zhen's troops were immediately thrown into a slump. In particular, as if things weren't going to go wrong, Wang Jian's troops were already struggling to hold off Gao Xianzhi, but another army suddenly appeared behind them.
Although this army was small in number, its sudden attack at this moment was tantamount to the last straw that broke the camel's back.
It was this same army that had suddenly appeared; it was none other than the thousand light cavalry led by Wu Changkong.
The mobilization of over 20,000 Dongyi naval troops would not be easily concealed from the Luo Wang (Net of Heaven). The Luo Wang branch of Dongyi was one of the earliest branches to develop. In fact, some of the early funding for the Luo Wang's development came from Dongyi.
Therefore, Hei Chi Changzhi obtained information about the troop movements of the Eastern Barbarians from Luo Wang Wang Lianhua.
He sent Wu Changkong with a thousand light cavalry to follow behind, initially mainly to investigate the movements of this army, but they just happened to run into Gao Xianzhi's surprise attack on Wangzhen.
Under these circumstances, Wu Changkong had nothing to say and decisively led his troops to attack from behind Wangzhen.
Under the combined attack from both sides, it didn't take long for Wang Zhen's troops to collapse. He had no choice but to cut his losses and escape in several directions with a portion of his troops.
Among the scattered forces, Wu Changkong was pursuing Wang Jian's force.
This person is not a local figure, but a system-related figure.
In history, Wang Geon was also known as Taejo of Goryeo, a famous politician and military strategist in the history of the Korean Peninsula and the founding monarch of the Goryeo Dynasty.
He was neither too big nor too small, but he could be considered a founding monarch.
He was a hidden character in a certain summoning card. After his birth, he was implanted into the Dongyi people. Moreover, he was a member of the Wang family, one of the five major families of Dongyi, and a cousin of Wang Zhen.
Unfortunately, there were too many monsters and demons in this era, and the system kept creating even more of them, leaving him no room to grow.
Even now, he is only somewhat famous in Dongyi; in the wider world, no one else has ever heard of him.
Now, in the process of breaking through in different directions, they found that they had been targeted by Wu Changkong, the god of death, and were so frightened that their souls almost left their bodies.
In particular, the troops led by Wu Changkong were all cavalry, and their pursuit speed was extremely fast. Even though Wang Jian left Hong Ru and Pei Xuanqing with a small group to cover the rear, they were easily scattered by Wu Changkong and were quickly caught up by Wu Changkong again.
Even Hong Ru and Pei Xuanqing died at the hands of Wu Changkong.
"You barbarian dog, where do you think you're going? Leave your life behind!" Seeing that Wang Jian's men were dwindling, Wu Changkong broke away from the main cavalry force and took the lead in chasing after them.
"Kill him!" Seeing that Wu Changkong was chasing so urgently, Wang Jian hardened his heart and said.
He had two or three hundred men with him, and he refused to believe that they couldn't kill the other side.
