Chapter 131 Bloody Battle at Bihoof Pavilion ([-])

The so-called solid bullet is actually a lump of iron. Because of the rapid launch device such as the gunpowder launcher, it has extraordinary speed and power. It surpassed its old predecessor trebuchet and became the main weapon of the Ming army. An extremely important part.

When encountering some strong and indestructible cottages and fortresses, the Ming army will choose to use solid bullets, or when encountering enemy troops at sea, in order to increase the range, they will also choose solid bullets. Smash it right through.

Because it will not explode, it can only be used in a specific environment, so compared to solid bullets, the Ming army is more willing to use flowering bullets that can cause greater damage to the enemy, or can shoot a large number of broken stones to cause a larger area. Killing tiger squat guns, etc., but in this special situation, it is the time to use solid bullets.

Use solid bullets to destroy the formation of Japanese pirates in one fell swoop, and give the Ming army a chance to breathe.

When Wu Weizhong gave an order, the gunners loaded solid bullets one after another, and then pushed the artillery everywhere. Wu Weizhong first ordered the gunmen to fire a round of salvos, driving the Japanese pirates back a few steps. When the time came, Wu Weizhong immediately ordered: " Open the shield! Light it up!!!"

"Boom boom boom boom-"

There was a roar, and the Japanese pirates who were very close to the Ming army's formation once again saw a nightmare that they would never forget in their next life. Dozens of big iron balls rushed into the large formation surrounded by the Ming army by the Japanese pirates with an indomitable momentum. , Set off a bloody storm, causing the Japanese pirates to be in chaos. The Ming army gunmen took the opportunity to attack and smashed the Japanese pirates' formation. It also shocked Ukita Hideke, Ishida Mitsunari and others who were observing the battle on the top of Xiaomaru Mountain.

"Damn it! How many shells do they have!? The artillery of the Ming army is too fierce, far beyond our imagination! Our army is out of support, and the loss is too great if it goes on like this. It's time to deal with Xiao Ruxun's main force!"

Masuda Nagamori roared loudly, eagerly hoping that Ukita Hideka and the rest of the elders would not care about a few soldiers, but aimed at destroying the Ming army formation, gathered only thirteen cannons, and fired at the Ming army formation. The volleys destroyed the large formation of the Ming army, allowing the Japanese army, which had the advantage of the majority of troops, to enter the formation of the Ming army and fight hand-to-hand with the Ming army.

"I also suggest doing the same. If this continues, we will be exhausted before Xiao Ruxun's main force arrives. If the second wave of ambushes is not enough to defeat Xiao Ruxun's main force, once they succeed in counterattacking, all our previous efforts will be wasted, and Seoul will be in jeopardy! Now is not the time to hesitate! Please order as soon as possible!"

Kato Koyasu shouted loudly.

Ukita Hideka’s face flushed red. Seeing that the opinions of the elders had tended to be unified, they couldn’t continue to hesitate, stomped their feet cruelly, and shouted: “Reload, light the fire!”

Before the words fell, there was a "boom", a gun not far from the headquarters fired first for some reason, and the other dozen guns were not even loaded, the gunners looked at each other in confusion, Kato Guangtai reacted furiously, and took the lead to rush over: "What are you doing! You were ordered to reload just now! Why did you ignite it?! Bastard! Reload immediately! Get ready to launch!"

After finishing speaking, he slapped the stunned gunner holding the torch severely.

In that blow, the shell landed impartially on a position five meters away from the left side of the Ming army's formation, overturning two shield soldiers. Wu Weizhong was shocked and asked to make up for it immediately. Judging by his intuition, The Japanese pirates' artillery must be on the mountain, so they jumped up and ran to the shield car, and looked up the mountain through the gap in the shield formation. As expected, they saw a puff of smoke after the artillery was fired, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

If they had a few more cannons, this formation would really be unbearable!It seems that our information is also wrong. It's not that the Japanese pirates don't have guns, but too few, and ordinary troops can't use them at all. Under such circumstances, when the main force attacks, the Japanese pirates will definitely use them!
Spotting on that position, Wu Weizhong immediately ordered the five artillery pieces to gather together, pointed at the position close to Xiaowanshan, asked the gunners to aim, loaded the shells, and then quickly moved away from the shield array, and decisively ordered the artillery to fire. Destroy their cannons and gunners before firing!
Kato Koyasu decided to personally command the gunners to aim at the Ming army's formation to fire artillery, and pushed away the retainers who were concerned about his safety, insisting on standing at the forefront to command the battle.

"Loading complete! Aiming complete!"

The gunners expressed that it was done, Kato Koyasu nodded in satisfaction, and raised his hand to give an order. Suddenly, there was a sound similar to the artillery fire in his ear, and he turned his doubtful eyes to the Ming army. At the same time, three shells exploded around him accurately, destroying eight artillery pieces and more than 30 gunners in one fell swoop. Kato Koyasu's body was undoubtedly torn apart by lead gravel and air waves up.

The explosion was some distance away from the Japanese headquarters and did not affect the headquarters. However, before they could react and observe the situation, another round of shelling followed. All is at peace.

When the gunpowder smoke cleared, a group of people looked at the position of the artillery position again, and they were stunned.

Except for the broken gun barrel and artillery corpses, there is no one intact artillery... This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is...

"Kato...he...he..."

Ishida Mitsunari trembled for a long time but couldn't say that sentence.

With a sound of "dong", an unknown object landed from the sky at the entrance of the headquarters. Ishida Mitsunari took a look and saw a tattered blood-stained gold bag rolling and rolling at the entrance of the headquarters, and then stopped in a pit. Moved.

Ukita Hideka was panting heavily and couldn't say a word. The rest of the Japanese commanders were also inexplicably terrified. Seeing everything in front of them, they had never felt that death was so close to them. After thinking about it, thousands of Ming troops need us to use 2 people to besiege, so how many people do tens of thousands of Ming troops need us to use to besiege?Can it be defeated?

This is an unknown. Anyway, they only see that the Ming army has only about 5000 people, surrounded by 2 Japanese troops, but there is no sign of defeat at all. They have been fighting bravely, but the losses of the Japanese army are constantly increasing. Plus, just now we lost half of Ukita Hideka’s artillery reserves and lost an elder Toyotomi, so when Xiao Ruxun’s main force arrives, even a second round of ambushes can really defeat this Ming army?

No one dares to make a guarantee, because if the Japanese army here is defeated and killed by the Ming army, and even they become prisoners, there is no need to fight this battle, and they can wait for the Taige to take the remaining soldiers. The [-] troops under his command came to North Korea and Ming Dynasty to fight for the survival of the country, but he didn't know whether Taige's body could bear such a terrible ending.

Unprecedentedly, the Ukita Hide family began to worry about the feasibility of this plan that everyone completed together... There are only 1 people left in Seoul. If they are all lost here, will Seoul still need to stick to it?Is there still a need to stick to it?
