The six-dimensional pictures of emperors of all dynasties were exposed, and the ancestors panicked

Chapter 624 Battle of Pyongyang!

On the canopy.

Pyongyang City·Lumen

Zu Chengxun, wearing colorful ornaments, held a broadsword in his right hand!

Take the lead.

"A bunch of Japanese slaves! Your great-grandfather is here!"

The Japanese slaves on the city wall could not understand what the "peasants" below were saying.

He just stood by the wall with swords and spears, waiting to teach these peasants who came up to die a lesson.

Seeing the "Korean" army approaching the city, the Japanese slaves raised their spears to stab.

A loud whistle echoed up and down the city wall.

As the whistle blows!
Zu Chengxun, who was rushing in the front, pulled off his outer robe!
The three-barreled gun that was slung over his back slipped out of his hand in the blink of an eye!

The one thousand Ming soldiers behind him also took off their camouflage and raised their three-barreled guns.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Three sounds in succession!

The Japanese pirates leaning over the battlements screamed and fell from the city wall one after another.

……

{What is this called? Ming-style Iai?}
{It turns out that Ashina Isshin learned the "swordsmanship" from Tiaodangqi! (dog head)}
{The three-barreled gun, this old and useless firearm that had been abandoned by the elite soldiers of the Nine Frontiers, was equipped to Zu Chengxun's Liaodong cavalry by chance.}
{Interestingly, every time we fought against the Japanese, the three-barreled gun always performed exceptionally well.}
{Because the Japanese are too fond of "dancing with swords in both hands" in a dense charge, this stupid habit is just what they deserve when they encounter the three-barreled gun!}
{So Koreans have a very high opinion of the three-barreled gun. "The three-barreled gun is a good weapon for defending against the enemy, and one must practice with it. Gunners who join the army should practice firing the three-barreled gun for a few months, and practice it several times. The reward is the same as that for the bird gun."}
{I'm not trying to feel superior, it's just that they are so well equipped that any weapon they see would have a high rating...}
……

Great Qin II period
Li Si poured some water into his mouth.

He glanced at the sky, then looked at the ferocious man in the iron cage with disheveled hair and a rage like a frustrated tiger.

For the first time, he felt that there were such stubborn people in the world!
"Xiang Yu, His Majesty has already treated you very well."

"Why do you have to limit yourself to the land of Jiangdong?"

"West! East!"

“There is so much potential!”

"Look!"

Li Si pointed at the firearms blazing in the sky and said earnestly:
"How many blows can you take if you are as strong as iron?"

"This is the future trend of the world!"

"You know the iron smelting technology of our Great Qin."

"A wise bird chooses the right tree to roost in."

Inside the iron cage, Xiang Yu, with his hands and feet bound by iron chains, raised his head and glanced at the sky.

Then he looked at Li Si.

"Although there are three households in Chu, Qin must be killed by Chu."

Li Si took a deep breath.

Stand up! Wave your sleeves! Walk away!

……

Big man.

Liu Bang's eyes lit up.

"E's wife, if Nai Gong had this thing, would Xiang Yu have surrendered to him?"

Lu Zhi glanced at him, and asked back with a twitch of her lips:

"How did Xiang Yu die in the end?"

Liu Bang hesitated to speak, and finally closed his mouth in disappointment.

So, I hate you stubborn people the most!

……

On the canopy.

Pyongyang Castle - Hamjumun
Seeing the smoke rising from the Lumen nearby, Luo Shangzhi, holding a spear, gave the order directly:
"Fire guns and volley guns provide cover!"

"The rest! Follow me and charge!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed to the top of the city wall first with a spear in hand.

The Japanese soldiers on the city wall fired their muskets randomly, and a lead bullet hit his shoulder, causing blood to gushed out immediately.

Then a stone was thrown down and hit him in the abdomen.

Luo Shangzhi's spear slipped out of his hand and he swayed a few times. He gritted his teeth and stood firm on the ladder, then drew his sword and continued to climb up the city wall.

Below the city, a group of soldiers had already raised their muskets and fired upwards at the top of the city.

……

Pyongyang City Yeongwangjeong
The Japanese general, dressed in black, pointed at the defense map and said to the commander in front of him:

"The enemy's siege force is not as large as expected, probably only about 20,000 people."

"From the formation, the cavalry units of the Ming army are to the west and north."

"Outside the Hanqiu Gate in the south is a line of infantry, which looks like a Korean army."

"North Korean Army?"

The coach didn't say much. He looked for a while and murmured:

"There are no enemy troops in the east from Changqing Gate and Datong Gate. This is called 'surrounding three sides and leaving one side missing' in military strategy. Leaving the east side of the city is intended to break our army's determination to fight to the death."

"The Ming army at the west gate is the best equipped, while the Ming army outside the Seven Star Gate has fewer artillery."

"As for the south, there is only a troop of infantry and a group of Korean troops. It seems that the main attack direction of the Ming army is in the west." He turned around and ordered his men.

"Transfer all our best 'Teppo Ashigaru' to the ordinary gates."

……

On the eighth day of the first lunar month in the 1593st year of the Wanli reign (), Li Rusong personally commanded the battle at Qixing Gate, Li Rubai attacked Tonggong Gate, Wu Weizhong attacked Mudan Peak, Zu Chengxun attacked Lumen, and Luo Shangzhi attacked Hanqiu Gate. They attacked Pyongyang from the west, north, and south, leaving the east gate alone.

【Konishi Yukinaga saw through the plan and gathered his troops directly at the ordinary gate.】

【Zu Chengxun led a thousand Qi family soldiers to attack Lumen, while Luo Shangzhi led two thousand Qi family soldiers to attack Hanqiumen. Both gates were breached.】

[Soon after that, the Pugong Gate, Qixing Gate, Mudan Peak and other fortresses were successively conquered by the Ming army. ]

【Konishi Yukinaga retired to Fengyue Tower. 】

……

Ji Han.

Cao Cao looked at the sky and said subconsciously:
"Li Rusong used his military tactics without being bound by dogma, which was a victory. The Japanese followed the rules step by step, which was a defeat."

Sun Quan interrupted Cao Cao impatiently.

"Alright, alright, a few more wins and a few more losses...I'm getting calluses from hearing them all!"

Cao Cao squinted at him, then glanced at Liu Bei and calmed down.

Liu Bei took Zhang Fei's hand and said:

"We are crossing the ocean this time, so please be careful."

"No alcohol allowed!"

"If you drink alcohol, don't recognize me as your brother anymore."

"When you come back, I will drink with you until we are drunk!"

Zhang Fei patted his chest and said solemnly:
"Brother! I will not drink alcohol on this trip!"

Zhuge Liang, who was standing by, saw that Liu Bei had finished his instructions and said:
"When the three generals arrive in Japan, they can first investigate the situation."

"The main purpose is to lure people in by winning first and then losing."

Zhuge Liang fanned the feather fan in his hand and said softly:

"Japan is isolated overseas, with many mountains and little land, and is very poor. To survive in such a difficult environment, one needs extraordinary tenacity and shrewdness."

"So, the Japanese must be very shrewd and careful in small matters, doing a job extremely carefully and digging out profits from every penny."

“And they can persevere to the end with extraordinary perseverance, which is the resilience honed by the poor environment.”

“But based on this, they are very gambling.”

Zhuge Liang's eyes were as bright as stars, and his words immediately calmed Zhang Fei's doubts that had not yet been expressed.

Liu Bei stroked his beard proudly.

Zhuge Liang continued:
"And if you have a strong gambling nature, you will be rash and resolute."

"So, winning first creates pressure, and losing later arouses the gambling instinct."

"at last……"

Zhang Fei slapped the table and said loudly:
"Finally! A tiger among the sheep! Gather them and destroy them!"

"As expected! The military advisor is still evil-hearted... and very kind!"

Zhang Fei, who almost blurted out the answer, quickly made up for it.

Liu Bei cleared his throat, looked at Zhang Fei seriously and said:
"You must take care of yourself. It doesn't matter if things don't work out."

"I will wait for you to come back."

Zhang Fei didn't say anything, just nodded.

Guan Yu on the side suddenly stroked his beard and said:
"Same here."

Zhang Fei was stunned, then laughed and responded:
"it is good!"

The three brothers looked at each other and burst into laughter.

Zhuge Liang gently waved his feather fan and smiled.

Liu Chan behind him scratched his head and smiled foolishly, not knowing what was going on.

Cao Cao and Sun Quan were distracted for a moment as they looked at the happy scene here.

"Liu Xuande..."

……

[Li Rusong attacked Fengyue Tower several times, but when he found that he could not take it down, he sent someone to deliver a letter to Konishi Yukinaga, promising to let him leave the city.]

[Konishi Yukinaga was about to commit suicide, but suddenly a life-saving straw fell from the sky, and of course he had to grab it tightly. ]

[At midnight, Li Rusong ordered the troops to withdraw as agreed and ordered that they should not be intercepted. Konishi Yukinaga abandoned Pyongyang and led the remaining troops to escape from the city.]

【However, Li Rusong only agreed to let the Xiaoxi Army leave the city, but did not say that they could travel freely after leaving the city. 】

[We had already arranged an ambush to kill the remaining bandits outside the city. In one battle, we captured 359 heads and captured two people alive.]

[After the Battle of Pyongyang, Konishi's First Corps' 18,000 elite soldiers lost nearly two-thirds of their strength and almost lost their combat effectiveness.]

[After a great victory at the beginning, Li Rusong took advantage of the situation and marched southward, recovering more than 500 miles of lost territory within half a month.]

[Two of the three capitals of Korea were liberated (Pyongyang and Kaesong), and five of the eight provinces were recovered (Hwanghae, Pyeongan, Gyeonggi, Gangwon, and Hamgyong). The war situation was reversed drastically, and Korea, which was on the verge of extinction, was revived and saved.]

[In this battle, the Ming army lost more than 1,200 officers and soldiers. The court allocated silver to each of them, but the amount was pitifully small.]

[A commander received 10 taels of silver, a captain received 8 taels of silver, a captain received 6 taels of silver, and a captain received 5 taels of silver. Ordinary soldiers who died in battle received only 3 taels of silver each.]
