Chapter 1885 The sword points to the dead place of Dongying

Chapter 1885
Has the surprise attack failed?Yes, of course it has failed. Not to mention Kuroda Nagamasa, who just kicked the iron plate at the front line of Lianhua Mountain, has already suspected this, and Mori Hidemoto, who is rushing behind him, has also realized it.

As Kuroda Nagamasa retreated, the two sides quickly collided.As soon as Kuroda Nagamasa saw Mori Hidemoto, he quickly explained the process of the vanguard's defeat in the battle, and finally concluded: "...Now we can only rely on you, Your Highness Hidemoto."

This hat is still worn quite high, but Mao Lixiuyuan didn't intend to wear it steadily, but first thought about it with a thoughtful look, and then said: "If the Ming Army of Lianhuashan is the main force, then even if Our department immediately stepped forward to attack, but I am afraid it will be useless. This is a big matter, and I think we should wait for your father to arrive before discussing it."

Kuroda Nagamasa was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "But Your Highness Xiuyuan, the so-called military speed is precious, if you have to wait for my father..."

"You can't wait." Mao Lixiuyuan interrupted: "If the direction of Lianhua Mountain is really the main force of the Ming army, what does that mean? It means that the Ming army has already guessed our intentions, so they set up a net on Lianhua Mountain to wait for us." Jump into the trap. Since this is the case, do we really want to go to the tiger mountain knowing that there are tigers?"

Kuroda Nagamasa has just kicked the iron plate, so he naturally feels that "going to Tiger Mountain" is a bit unreliable, but as the saying goes, "the son never speaks of his father's faults", he can't publicly show that he has shaken his father's will to fight, so he can only sigh Tone, silent.

Mao Lixiuyuan then ordered to stop the advance, temporarily camped and waited.After about an hour, the follow-up Japanese army gradually arrived, and Ukita Hideka and Kuroda Rusui finally arrived together, so the temporary military meeting was held again.

Everyone first listened to Kuroda Nagamasa's report on the battle situation of the vanguard, and then fell into a dead silence.After a while, the Ukita Hide family couldn't bear it any longer, and they took the lead to break the silence, and asked Mao Li Xiuyuan, "What's your opinion, Your Highness Xiuyuan?"

Mao Lixiuyuan shook his head slightly, and said: "His Highness Kuroda fought with the Ming army, but he couldn't tell how many troops the Ming army deployed. He just emphasized that the opponent was 'or the main force of the Ming army'. With all due respect, this news is fundamentally It does not help us to make a correct judgment."

Ukita Hideya nodded, and then glanced at Kuroda Nagamasa with obvious dissatisfaction.Kuroda Nagamasa's face turned red, but he didn't make unreasonable words or simply fabricate them at will. He just emphasized once again that the Ming army had a huge number of artillery and rockets, which made it difficult for one's own side to approach, let alone fight effectively.

However, after he emphasized this time, he was questioned.Xiao Nishiyuki said: "Based on my experience in fighting the Ming army, the news provided by His Highness Kuroda...is unbelievable.

Assuming that the proportion of firearms carried by the Ming army is basically the same, then a very strange conclusion will be drawn after comparing the two: the Ming army in Lianhuashan should have at least [-].

However, according to the information we have confirmed before, since there are at least 5000 people in the Ming Army's Liu Ting Department, the remaining Ming Army in Sacheon, which is under the direct control of Gao Yushi, should not exceed this number at most. "

When President Xiaonishi said this, Kuroda Nagamasa suddenly remembered something, and suddenly opened his eyes wide and said: "Ah, that means that the army has received reinforcements! I remembered that the army that caused our army to lose in the end today It is a pure cavalry, still armored cavalry (high-style semi-armored, the Japanese called it armored), complete with armor and horse armor. Mount the infantry and form!"

Naomi Naoshima sighed: "That means the army has indeed received reinforcements. Judging from the distribution of the nearby Ming army, the support army can only be drawn from Li Rumei's department. The only problem is how did Gao Yushi think of getting reinforcements from Li Rumei All the cavalry will be transferred to his command."

"Then why?" Mao Lixiuyuan said angrily: "Naturally, Gao Wushi has guessed our army's battle plan and arranged corresponding defenses in advance."

At this time, Fengsuhe Jiazheng interjected: "It's not just for defense, you should know that this is a cavalry, and cavalry is often used to attack. That is to say, Gao Wushi not only intends to block our army at Lianhua Mountain, but also intends to Launch an attack here, otherwise, why would he go farther to mobilize Li Rumei's cavalry instead of directly ordering Liu Ting's troops to go south to stop the attack?

According to the intelligence, the Burma and Bozhou that Liu Ting's troops had previously pacified were in dangerous mountains and dense forests, so wouldn't it be more appropriate for him to come to Lianhua Mountain for defense? "

This analysis is considered reasonable by all the generals, but in this case, another problem arises.Chang Zong's relatives frowned and asked: "Since Gao Wushi guessed our army's intentions and even dispatched reinforcements from Li Rumei's department further north, where is Liu Ting's department now? He can't possibly be waiting in Sanjia." ?”

Kuroda Rushui's sneak attack strategy has now been considered a failure by all the generals. Although everyone did not criticize it due to some reasons, they no longer actively solicited his opinions.It's just that after Chang Zong and Ibu Yuanqin raised this question, everyone hesitated to speak, and finally turned their attention to Kuroda Rushui.

The generals actually have guesses, but they are reluctant to talk about it right now. They think that if someone must say such pessimistic words, then let Kuroda Rushui say it. Anyway, he has already made a fatal mistake, so let’s say more No matter what ugly words, there are too many lice and no itching, and too many debts do not worry.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Kuroda Rushui naturally knew that this group of people was not respecting him, but to make himself say that ominous guess.

However, he smiled and didn't bother to care about it at all, and said lightly: "Since Gao Wushi has seen through my plan, and Liu Ting's troops have never gone south to Lianhua Mountain, there is naturally only one possibility at the moment, and that is to copy our army's empress. It's the way. If there are no accidents, Mashan, Xiongchuan, and Jinhai must have been taken by him."

"Baga!" Mao Lixiuyuan cursed, and said: "In this way, our army has no way to advance, and no way to retreat. It has reached the point of life and death!"

All the generals didn't know whether to be angry or frustrated when they heard this, but the young Ukita Hideka clapped his hands and said loudly: "You are all famous generals in the world, how can you be so discouraged! Even if Liu Ting really went to outflank our army Road, but he only has 5000 people after all, and Mashan, Xiongchuan and other places are only small towns, can't my nearly [-] troops break through their blockade?"

President Xiaonishi also reacted, and immediately expressed his support: "Yes, even if the artillery equipment of the Ming army is higher than that of the Renchen year, at most it will prevent our army from quickly destroying the city occupied by Liu Chen, but as His Royal Highness Yu Xita said No matter how strong Liu Ting is, there are only 5000 people. Even if our army can't take down the city he occupied, can't we still make a detour?
Gentlemen, cheer up, as long as we work together to pass through his interception, we can still organize defenses after returning to Busan, waiting for the reinforcements of His Royal Highness Taige! "

President Xiaoxi's words are not unreasonable, at least it seems that there is no doubt about it, but Mao Lixiuyuan said in a fair manner: "If we withdraw, the navy will not know the news, and we will break through the Ming army. What about the navy that arrived outside Sacheon port after the navy blocked it?
From the beginning, I thought that even if the navy of the Ming army was really taken up by the navy, it was impossible to be kept in the dark all the time.When they find out that the main force of our navy is not in Busan Port, they will definitely guess that they have gone to Sacheon, and then the main force will move westward, trying to encircle and eliminate our navy.And what about us?Is it necessary to sit idly by and ignore the survival of the navy? "

Well said, of course the situation facing the Japanese navy is exactly the same.It is a pity that all the generals have maintained a highly unanimous silence on this-nonsense, dead friends do not die poor people, although the navy is also our own, but after all, they are not "my people", what we have done to conquer North Korea is only The army is not like your Maori family, who have been mobilized by His Royal Highness Taige.

Mao Lixiuyuan quickly figured this out, so he turned his gaze to Chang Zongwo Yuanqin.Nagamune's territory is in Shikoku Island, which once unified Shikoku. Later, he was beaten up by Toyotomi Hideyoshi and spit out the annexed territory, but kept the entire Tosa.

Because Shikoku Island is relatively isolated, a lot of ships are needed even just to connect with the surrounding area. Therefore, Chang Zongga's family has more or less a family background in the navy, and it was more or less in the two battles of the imperial conquest. Less was drawn part of the power.For this reason, Mao Lixiuyuan obviously hoped that Chang Zongwo Yuanqin could say a few words for him.

But it is a pity that Mao Lixiuyuan may not be very clear. The few broken ships from Changzong's family are just for show, even if they are all lost, it will not make Yuan Qin feel so distressed, and what's worse is...they are actually It has been lost, and it was all confessed in the previous Mingliang naval battle.

So Mao Lixiuyuan only waited for the words of Chang Zonggabu Yuanqin that made him short of breath: "There are always sacrifices in war, and the leading generals should be rational about the necessary sacrifices, and the biggest crisis in our army at present is ourselves.

Gentlemen, if our army of nearly [-] is lost, let alone Busan must not be preserved, the entire war of conquering the dynasty can be regarded as a complete failure.Let me ask you, who can take this responsibility? "

Everyone was silent, and even began to think about what His Royal Highness Taige would do in China if such a situation really happened.Will this be used as an excuse to punish the big names wantonly, such as reducing fiefdoms?
Of course, Ukita Hideka's family didn't have such worries, he was just worried that such a situation would make His Royal Highness Taiko's heart aggravated, so don't be angry and ruin your body.

At this time, Kuroda Rushui sighed, and said: "I see that you don't want to continue to attack Lianhua Mountain, let alone marching into Sacheon is a feasible way, do you?"

No one answered.

Kuroda Rushui laughed at himself, didn't care, and continued, "But why do you think it's a good idea to turn around and retreat to Busan at this time?"

Everyone was obviously puzzled, but still no one was willing to answer the question. In the end, Kuroda Nagamasa rescued his father and said, "Father, why not retreat to Busan?"

Kuroda Rushui sighed: "Gao Wushi can even guess that our army would choose to surprise Sacheon under such circumstances, so why not spend more time thinking that our army may retreat when we lose the advantage of surprise attack?" Busan?
If he really made up his mind to completely encircle and suppress our army at Lianhua Mountain or its vicinity, then how could the army blocking our army's retreat be easily blocked by our army? "

"But Liu Chen only has 5000 people after all!" Xiao Xixing spread his hands and said, "No matter how Gao Wushi uses his troops like a god, he can't turn beans into an army, right?"

At this moment, Naoshima Naomi thought for a while, then suddenly shook his head and said: "There is no need to cast beans into soldiers—even if Li Rumei's troops are transferred to form the Lianhuashan reinforcements, there are still enough troops to be mobilized. Who knows what he is now?" Isn't it already arranged in the back of our army?"

Ah, yes, why did you forget the main force of Li Rumei's cavalry?There is no doubt about their mobility. As long as Gao Wushi really made a judgment and gave instructions, it is entirely possible that they have already gone to Mashan, Xiongchuan and other places.

Mao Lixiuyuan's face was extremely ugly, and he said sullenly: "The wolf before the tiger, does that mean that I am really trapped and desperate this time?"

"If you have to say that you have nowhere to go, I don't think so." Naoshima Naoshima shook his head and said, "I think there is another direction that can be used as an alternative target: Jinzhou."

When Naomi Naoshima mentioned Jinju, everyone quickly understood.Since Liu Ting's troops went to block our army's back route, and the "main force of the Ming army" was in Lianhua Mountain east of Sacheon, wouldn't Jinzhou north of Sacheon be empty?Right now, Gao Yushi should be focused on blocking our army at Lianhua Mountain, so if we attack Jinzhou instead, wouldn't we be able to win easily?

Of course, winning is not the point, the point is that in this way, he jumped out of the encirclement!
Ukita Hideka always felt that although this idea looked good, there still seemed to be something wrong, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.He looked left and right, and finally turned his gaze to Kuroda Rushui, and asked, "Master Rushui, what do you think?"

Kuroda Rushui sighed, and asked with some helplessness: "His Royal Highness, regardless of whether it is possible to capture Jinzhou, I just ask: Even if we capture Jinzhou, can our army change the current passive situation?"

Ukita Hideka was slightly taken aback, and then understood: Yes, so what if Jinju is captured?Go south to attack Sacheon?At that time, the main force of the Ming army in Lianhuashan must have returned to help.

Sacheon is unlikely to be captured, and once Jinju falls, the main force of Magui, who has already supported from Hanyang to the south, will come to attack regardless of everything, so as to relieve Sacheon from being besieged.

At the same time, once our army goes to fight Jinzhou, Liu Ting and Li Rumei near Mashan will naturally not be idle, and they will definitely go west along the main road to Jinzhou-in this case, taking Jinzhou will actually make it easier for the Ming army to encircle own up.

The Ming army has both artillery advantages and cavalry advantages. If the decisive battle is not in Lianhua Mountain but in places like Jinzhou, they will be better at it.All in all, just one sentence: Jinju is dead!

All the generals also understood what Heitian Rushui meant, and for a moment there was complete silence in the entire formation, and needles could be heard falling.

There are wolves in the front and tigers in the back, the sea is to the south, and the north is looking for a dead end, so what should we do now? ——
