Chapter 495 Despair
When he said that, he pointed at the map and drew a line on the map, almost going around the Japanese country to the other side!
Wan Zelin said in shock: "General! If we go here, we still have more than ten days of sea journey!"
"This general only gives you seven days. You must reach Huangbing within seven days. This is a military order!"
The entire army wanted to go ashore at Ishikawa, but unexpectedly the army turned around and headed towards the deep sea.
The 10,000 Goryeo troops who were left behind had no idea at all and were under pressure from military orders to attack Ishikawa fiercely. However, Ran Min did not care about their life or death and marched southward.
Jinzhi led 10,000 troops to the Ishikawa land successfully, and immediately ordered the soldiers to separate into two groups and attack frontally. He was a Korean who had led troops in battles, so he knew that the frontal resistance would be the greatest.
But when the two sides separated, they also encountered strong resistance. The Japanese army suddenly appeared, and arrows rained down on them.
Jin Zhi ordered Li Chengdao's latest improved three-bow bed crossbow to fight back, gaining an absolute advantage in the offensive. This was the only thing he relied on.
However, there were many Japanese soldiers and they were condescending, so there was no other way. Jin Zhi could only supervise the soldiers to charge, while ordering people to report to Ran Min and call for support.
"Report! General Ran is missing! All fleets are missing!"
"what?!"
Jin Zhen was shocked!
He realized that he was alone. He couldn't guess what Ran Min meant. Was he going to send thousands of his fellow villagers here?
But at the same time, I also realized that there was no way to retreat. The boats had all left, and retreating would be just feeding the fish.
The life and death of these ten thousand people depends on whether they can capture Ishikawa and find a foothold.
Then he wrote to His Majesty the Celestial Empire to inform Ran Min.
Of course, this requires him to survive. Jin Zhi became furious and went into battle to organize the firepower himself.
Although Li Chengdao's newly improved three-bow bed crossbow was still an arrow, the arrows were made of gunpowder, like homemade bombs, and their power was still not what the Japanese arrows could withstand.
One arrow shot out, killing and wounding everyone.
The Japanese army desperately tried to stop Jin Zhi from landing. Although they suffered too many injuries, they still sent a large number of reinforcements and civilians into the battle.
After three days of hard fighting, Jin Zhi finally broke into the four-mile area. He was surprised to find that the four-mile area was all continuous defense lines.
It can be seen that the Japanese people's painstaking efforts have made the entire Ishikawa a battlefield.
In order to preserve his strength, Jin Zhi can only kill enemies from a distance, not close, and uses his own advantages, but this consumes too much.
Shiploads of gunpowder would soon be exhausted.
But on the ground, there were Japanese corpses everywhere, their limbs were all messed up by the bombing, blood intestines were flowing on the ground, and the blood flowed into the sea, attracting countless sharks.
The battle in Ishikawa was a decisive battle. If it could not be defended, then the Tang Army would not be able to defend it in future attacks. If it could be defended, the Tang Army would have no choice but to feed the fish.
The Emperor of Japan was deeply aware of this and ordered the entire army to support Ishikawa. Aid from all sources was flowing in, and he tried his best to fight against Jinzhi.
The Japanese army organized death squads countless times to attack Jin Zhi under artillery fire. Jin Zhi did not engage in close combat at all. He retreated when the opponent rushed towards him, bombarding him while retreating, and when all the death squads were dead, he bravely advanced again.
Repeatedly, on the fifth day, gold stains occupied one-third of Ishikawa.
And the gunpowder quickly ran out!
The gold stains have the intention to retreat, but there is no place to retreat.
Now there are only five or six thousand people left out of ten thousand people. At the end of the world... Jin Zhen is going crazy.
But he also understood that the only way to retreat was to advance, and he was ready for hand-to-hand combat.
Moreover, every soldier is fighting all the time. Many of them have barely had enough to eat, and even nervously took a few bites of raw fish before going into battle.
Fortunately, he captured Dingzhi Mountain east of Ishikawa and was able to control a large area on the top of the mountain.
Then use Dingzhi Mountain as the base to expand forward.
More land must be taken before the gunpowder runs out, or Ran Min's conscience must be discovered and rescued.
But Ran Min never showed up. On the seventh day, the gunpowder was finally used up, and the remaining four to five thousand people had to retreat to Dingzhi Mountain.
On the seventh day, Dingzhishan was surrounded by Japanese troops.
Ran Min had no idea about Jin Zhen's desperate situation, he didn't want to know, he didn't even think about it. Only Wan Zelin was worried about it. He understood that Jin Zhi had only one way to die and was betrayed by the general.
He didn't dare to say it because Ran Min always kept a straight face.
On the seventh day, when Jin Zhi defended himself on the top of the mountain, Wan Zelin finally forced the fleet to Huangbing.
Huangbing is a coastal city. The biggest feature of this city, which also attracted Ran Min's attention, is that it is closest to Chiyoda.
Chiyoda is the seat of the Japanese capital and the center of Japan.
The land of Japan is like a strip. Chiyoda is not like Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty, which is surrounded by countless cities and is thousands of miles deep.
To the south of Chiyoda is the city of Huang Bing.
After capturing the yellow soldiers, it is very easy to march directly into Chiyoda.
This is the fastest way to capture the Japanese kingdom. If you capture the capital directly and then conquer it, you can at least nominally capture the Japanese kingdom within one month.
This is what Ran Min thinks.
He had no choice but to betray the Goryeo army. He needed the 10,000 Goryeo soldiers to cover him and attract the attention of the Japanese.
As he thought, half of the Japanese emperor's attention was on Ishikawa, and he sent a large number of reinforcements there.
In such an important city as Huangbing, there are only 150,000 troops stationed.
Japan's military strength is limited, and Ishikawa and Huang Bing have accounted for more than half of Japan's military strength.
Moreover, they are the most ruthless and will attack with all their strength whenever something happens, causing a concentration of troops.
This means that taking these two places would mean the defeat of the entire Japanese army.
Ran Min did not hesitate at all this time. As soon as he arrived at the shore, he immediately ordered the entire army to attack Huang Bing.
The huge cannon on the ship opened fire to support the infantry ashore. The defenders on the shore did not expect that the main force of the Tang Dynasty would appear here. Although they also discovered the Tang army here and reported it to the emperor, they were still caught off guard.
Ran Min was so brave that he personally went into battle with a sword and shouted loudly to kill the enemy. No one dared to charge with their lives.
Wan Zelin led his own crossbow team, which was the main offensive group, while Ran Min led the infantry in close combat. With the support of gunpowder, they quickly rushed to the front of the defenders.
The mountains and plains were filled with Tang troops, and the shouts of killing filled the entire Yellow Army.
At this time, the emperor of the Chiyoda Palace heard the news that Huang Bing had appeared in the Tang Army.
As soon as the emperor heard the report, he knew something was wrong, because by the time he knew it, the Tang army might have already attacked Huang Bing.
At the same time, I also heard a military report from Ishikawa, saying that only part of the Tang army was there, and the rest did not know where they were.
The news was sent to the palace just as Ran Min arrived at Huang Bing.
By the time the emperor realized he had been deceived, it was already too late.
Half of his main force was in Ishikawa. Although the fighting in Ishikawa became more and more popular, he never expected that it was just a cover position.
"Damn and cunning Han Chinese!"
The Emperor was almost in despair.
The emperor glared at all the staff. Everyone lowered their heads and no one said anything.
"We should have expected that they would attack the place closest to the palace!"
Mikado said in frustration.
"Your Majesty the Emperor! It's still too late. General Chiba of Huang Bing is your Majesty's most trustworthy general. As long as we hold on for three days, we can organize millions of people!"
"Yes! Your Majesty, we still have hope of driving them into the sea!"
