Jeju Island.

Tamra King's Palace.

Tamluo King Fu Kun kept toasting to Lu Jiang and Nong Hao.

He didn't behave like a king at all, but instead looked like a philistine businessman to please.

Now, when the king of the country faces the generals of the celestial dynasty, isn't he just a younger brother?

On that day, Fu Kun, who was protected by Ju Yuan, fled into the Tamna Palace, shivering, holding his son and crying bitterly, waiting for the Japanese to invade the city and recreate the tragic situation of Kaesong.

After waiting for most of the day, there was no huge army as expected, but instead, everything was peaceful outside.

It wasn't until Lu Jiang sent someone to deliver the official document that Fu Kun knew that Ju Yuanbao, who had beaten him to a pulp, had actually been killed.

The person who killed them was the Yu Dynasty who came to the Central Plains.

Fu Kun had heard about the Yu Dynasty.

They were trapped on the island and did not have the ability to sail far away. However, there were merchants from China who traveled between Goryeo and Jeju Island and brought some information from the outside world to the island.

He never dreamed that he would have contact with the Central Plains again.

Compared with the inhumane jackals of the Japanese country, Fu Kun was equally wary and uneasy about the tigers of the Central Plains, but he also understood that they could not even deal with Ju Yuanbao. Against the Central Plains who could annihilate Ju Yuanbao, Fu Kun would

It's all a dead word.

They had already expressed their attitude by submitting the document, so Fu Kun could only bite the bullet and go out of the city to greet him.

Looking at the mighty troops from the Central Plains, Fu Kun's legs felt weak.

Fortunately, the soldiers of the Yu Dynasty had strict discipline, and Lu Jiang and Nong Hao did not bully others, so Fu Kun felt better.

But Lu Jiang's first words when they met made Fu Kun so scared that he almost peed.

Fu Kun still remembers the white-haired old guy bowing politely and saying: "I have seen King Tamra. The Japanese pirates were causing trouble in Goryeo. His Majesty was furious with thunder and raised one hundred thousand troops to destroy them. When he learned that the Japanese invaders were invading,

Tamluo, please order me to come and help."

Raise 100,000 troops?

The population of the entire Tamluo Kingdom was less than 100,000. Lu Jiang's understatement of "raising 100,000 troops" made Fu Kun's heart almost jump out of his mouth.

Regarding Lu Jiang's words, Fu Kun was not suspicious. He remembered that Su Dingfang, the general manager of the Shenqiu Road Marching Army in the Tang Dynasty, led an army of 100,000 land and water to raze Baekje.

If the Tang Dynasty could do this, it is not surprising that the Yu Dynasty could do it.

Thinking that the 100,000-strong army from the Central Plains was nearby, Fu Kun felt that there was nothing wrong with being a grandson.

Fu Kun couldn't help but persuade him to drink, holding the wine glass high and said: "This is our Tamluo specialty, a fine wine brewed from the mountain spring water of Longtouyan and the rice on the island. Its reputation may not be comparable to that of Dukang and Fenjiu in the Kingdom of Heaven, but it is

There’s no taste in it either.”

Nong Hao's index finger twitched and he couldn't help but say yes. He was away on an expedition and everything was going to be difficult, so it was difficult to have a chance to enjoy delicious food. This time he had to attend a state banquet, so he didn't care about anything else and ate to his heart's content.

Lu Jiang raised her glass to chat with Fu Kun and said, "There is one more thing that requires your help, your Majesty."

Fu Kun did not hesitate and said: "The country below is weak, but if the country above has needs, it should do its best and obey everything."

Lu Jiang said: "This time our commander-in-chief, Chen Bing, has another large army attacking the main island of Japan. We have no time to deal with the Japanese pirates in Goryeo. Tachibana Yuanbao killed them for our army. There is no guarantee that Tachibana Konbo will not come again. For

Just in case, when building defense facilities at the docks and ports, your country needs to recruit some labor to help."

Before he could say anything, Fu Kun said without hesitation: "God, don't worry, the 23,000 people working in Tamluo Kingdom are all under the command of the angels."

Why do you think Fu Kun is doing his part to resist the Japanese country?

According to the topography of Jeju Island, Lu Jiang immediately arranged for the Tamna people to build defense towers, set up hidden piles at the port, and connect the two surrounding strategic islands with the main island of Jeju.

Compared with Tamna Kingdom's simple defense method of building ships to block the enemy, Lu Jiang's arrangement showed the style of a military master.

There are arrow towers at every strategic point, and the islands can support each other and advance and retreat freely.

Lu Jiang personally directed the people of Tamluo Kingdom to work. He was the leader of 500 people, and he was commanding 20,000 laborers who could not understand his words. There was no confusion at all, and he felt very at ease.

On this day, Nong Hao suddenly came to Lu Jiang quickly and said solemnly: "Dutou, I'm crazy, the Japanese pirates are here. They are all here, there are thousands of ships, and there are thousands of ships.

At least there are more than 20,000 people."

A trace of joy flashed in Lu Jiang's eyes, and then she smiled bitterly and said, "You're really here?"

Lu Jiang is naturally not a god, and he is not sure whether the Japanese Congress will come again, but there is an old saying that "opportunities are often reserved for those who are prepared."

Lu Jiang has a very clear and clear understanding of her mission.

Lin Renzhao asked him to lead his troops to rescue the Tamluo Kingdom, not out of righteousness.

How could a general like him, who licks blood with his sword, feel sorry for the people of Tamluo Kingdom?

It's just that the Tamna Kingdom was occupied by the Japanese Kingdom, which meant that the Japanese Kingdom had an additional stronghold between Goryeo and Japanese Islands.

Their purpose was to keep the Japanese expeditionary force dormant between the straits, and they did not allow the other side any room for maneuver.

The destruction of Juwonbo was just a matter of course, and the real purpose was to defend Jeju Island.

No matter whether the Japanese Congress comes or not, Lu Jiang will be ready to fight on the island.

This is his own understanding of the war situation.

Nong Hao looked at Lu Jiang as if he were a god, and said, "Give me the order, brothers will listen to you."

Lu Jiang said: "With this massive attack by the Japanese, they must have completely withdrawn from Goryeo. In this way, the governor's army and horses will come soon. No matter how many there are, we only need to hold on until the governor arrives. The overall situation is determined. The key to this battle is

It is located at the wharf and port here. We have few troops and Tamra troops are weak. If the Japanese land successfully, we will definitely be defeated. I will defend here, and Udo Island will be handed over to Brother Nong. Udo Island can contain the enemy from the flanks.

You and I will cooperate and teach the Japanese how to use soldiers."

"Yes!" Nong Hao loudly accepted the order.

Fu Kun also got the news and came to Lu Jiang in fear, "General Tian, ​​how many Japanese pirates have come?"

Lu Jiang said: "Almost 40,000!"

He also added ten thousand more.

Fu Kun's face changed greatly and he exclaimed: "Why are there so many?"

Lu Jiang folded her hands across her chest and said confidently: "They must have known that our army was attacking the main island of Japan. They did not dare to rescue from Tsushima Island, so they chose to use Jeju Island as a base and go south to Kyushu Island."

Fu Kun said in a trembling voice: "This is not good. Once they land on the island, Tamluo will perish."

Lu Jiang said calmly: "King, don't panic, the governor's army will arrive soon. As long as we persist for a few days, these thieves will become the food for the fish and shrimps near Jeju Island."

Fu Kun looked at Lu Jiang and had no other choice. He bowed deeply and said, "In this way, everything is entrusted to the Heavenly General. Everyone in the Tamluo Kingdom, including X, obeys the Heavenly General's orders."

Lu Jiang wanted this result and said: "Then please trouble the king to summon all the soldiers here to welcome the Japanese invaders. Let's use a hearty first victory to add to the excitement!"

Fu Kun opened his mouth and his throat moved, but he couldn't say a word.

There are 40,000 opponents. Excluding the common people, there are only a few thousand under his command. There are 2,000 in the Central Plains. The total is only 3,000. How can we win?

But seeing Lu Jiang's confident expression, Fu Kun could only ask the God of the Sea for blessing.

At the end of the line of sight, the dark ships had appeared on the sea level.

Lu Jiang took the telescope, looked into the distance, and said: "Your Majesty, ask your people to hide the armor. How did you fight against Tachibana Yuanbao before? How will you fight now?"

Except for a few soldiers of Tamna Kingdom, most of them did not have armor, but Lu Jiang gave them armors pulled from the corpses of Japanese soldiers to arm themselves.

…

At the same time, Fujiwara Shisuke and Minamoto Manchu also looked at Jeju Island, feeling incredible.

Fujiwara Shisuke said: "Tachibana Enho is a strong general of the Taira family, known for his bravery. In the previous rebellion of the Taira clan, Tachibana Enho went to the battlefield to attack more than ten enemies. This time, there is no news about the attack on Jeju Island."

Yuan Manzhong also said: "I learned from the words of Goryeo's demoted officials.

Tamna Kingdom, apart from the king's bodyguard, there is no army in Tamna Kingdom. Lord Tachibana Enbo has the Tachibana family soldiers in his hands, so there is no way he will be defeated by Tamna Kingdom. Unless he encounters the Yu Kingdom in the west, or is unlucky.

OK, I encountered a storm.”

He glanced at Master Fujiwara and said, "Our ship cannot withstand strong winds and waves."

Fujiwara Shisuke was speechless.

Once upon a time, they were capable of long voyages, as evidenced by their many missions to the Tang Dynasty.

For this reason they also specially

The envoy ships sent to the Tang Dynasty were built locally. The ships sent to the Tang Dynasty not only had the ability to sail long distances, but also had certain combat effectiveness.

At that time, they relied on sending Tang envoys to fight the Tang Dynasty in the Haidong Peninsula.

During this period, they also robbed the Tang Dynasty's stern ships and Huanglong ships. Although they were completely defeated in the end, they were still capable of fighting.

But now Shisuke Fujiwara looked at the main ship at his feet. This was the main ship of the Goryeo Navy. In terms of effectiveness, it was much better than the main ship when he went on the expedition.

Master Fujiwara hesitated for a moment and said: "If we can survive this disaster this time, we will definitely persuade my brother to open communication with the outside world."

Fujiwara Shisuke changed the topic and said: "In your opinion, why did Tachibana Enho lose news?"

Yuan Manzhong shook his head and said: "It's hard to say, but as long as you get close to Tamna Island, everything will become clear. As far as I know, the Western Central Plains are rich, and most of their soldiers have armors for self-defense, and the last ones are leather armors. Sharp soldiers.

They were even equipped with iron armor for self-defense. Tamna Island was short of supplies. Their farming iron tools and cold-proof leather jackets had to be purchased from Goryeo, and the soldiers could not afford armor. Lord Tachibana Enho had thousands of men wearing various types of armor. They folded on the island
