Wanli 1592

Chapter 178
The Japanese pirates in Busan have been in extreme anxiety since the [-]th day. They are always worried about whether the cannons of the Ming army on the opposite side will ring again. The Ming army only uses artillery and does not engage in close combat tactics. Helpless, their iron cannons couldn't reach the Ming army, and they didn't dare to go out of the city to fight. They couldn't lift their heads when they were hit by the Ming army's artillery.

And even more depressing is the high command of the Japanese army.

Although the continuous negotiation with Xiao Ruxun has achieved some results, and Xiao Ruxun would occasionally order a truce between the two sides to stop the shelling, but he has always demanded that the Japanese side hand over the missing soldiers of the Ming army and the murderous murderer, otherwise they will never let it go. He scolded "the tyrannical Japanese pirates who killed my soldiers, yet they still have the face to beg for mercy. I have never seen such a brazen person", and then ordered the bombardment.

Under the bombardment of the Ming army's artillery, the Japanese city was in danger. It didn't mean that the buildings were about to collapse, but the people's hearts were about to collapse.

Due to the blockade of the Ming army's artillery fire, the few Japanese cities that the Ming army has been taking care of these days cannot be entered or exited, the supplies cannot be sent in, and the wounded cannot come out. Occasionally, some people rushed out desperately. , but how can large-scale food and military equipment be transported in?

The artillery of the Ming army was aimed at these places, and all four gates of a city could be taken care of, which caused heavy losses to the Japanese army's transport team, and they did not dare to transport them at all.

People were in a hurry again and again, but they couldn't do anything. They didn't have any clue to find the so-called missing soldier.

In such an atmosphere, the high-level Japanese army became more and more manic, especially the Ukita Hide family, who drew their swords and killed people at every turn. Now, no one dares to report the battle situation to the Ukita Hide family. The existence of Ishida Mitsunari as the chief of staff is also a He couldn't even come up with any suggestions, so he could only try his best to find out the case of the missing soldiers, without thinking about the conspiracy at all.

But at this moment, another bad news exacerbated Ishida Mitsunari's confusion.

"The Tsushima Island side should have sent us the latest batch of supplies yesterday, but it hasn't arrived today."

On the evening of the 22nd, the quartermaster reported to Ishida Mitsunari in this way, which made Ishida Mitsunari frown tightly: "The transportation of supplies has always been fixed and quantitative, and there will be no mistakes. Did you remember the wrong time?"

"No, we did the calculation several times, and we didn't make a mistake. It is indeed time to transport the supplies, but there is no news at all. Do you think this is the trick of Li Sunshin's navy?"

The quartermaster asked such a question.

Ishida Mitsunari was distraught at this time, unable to calm down and analyze many things that he could have analyzed. He waved his hand to let the quartermaster go down: "Can you send someone to Tsushima Island tomorrow morning to see it? It’s a two-hour journey, what’s the rush? No matter how hard Yi Sun-shin can fight, he can’t destroy Tsushima Port! Don’t panic! Okay, let’s go down!”

The quartermaster went down obediently. In the early morning of the next day, according to Ishida Mitsunari's instructions, the quartermaster took a closed ship and set sail for Tsushima Island, the terminal - hell.

On the surface of the sea, the huge navy of the allied forces of the Ming Dynasty is rushing towards the remaining Japanese pirate navy in Busan Port with its bloody mouth wide open.

"Ignite!! Launch!!"

The first shot was fired by Chen Lin's flagship, and then all the cannons fired.

The water battle started quite abruptly. The Japanese navy at the port was unprepared and sank more than a dozen warships with a burst of shelling by the Ming Dynasty navy. Dozens of warships were damaged, and a large number of sailors were bombed. Dead or smashed to death, the shells falling from the sky will fall on every corner of this port anytime and anywhere, either solid shells or flowering shells, and the whole port is in chaos.

Taking advantage of the favorable situation, Chen Lin bet all his treasures, dispatched the ten most powerful lucky boats and five centipede boats, and the troops were divided into two groups to bombard the Japanese pirate navy at the port, almost destroying the water. All the shells and gunpowder on the division ship were gone, and the Japanese pirate army who hit the land doubted their lives.

The Japanese pirate navy tried to fight back. Under the threat of shells, more than a dozen ships forcibly entered the battle, trying to get close to the Ming army ships and began to fight, but all of them were pulled away by the centipede ships and sank on the water. When it's close enough to shoot.

At the same time, when the high-level Japanese army in Busan was in a daze, the Ming army started firing artillery salvos again, and the artillery salvo started without warning. The army seemed to be preparing to attack Wacheng again. Cooperating with the navy, The navy attacked for half an hour and sank all the helpless Japanese pirates in the port of Busan, with floating corpses everywhere, and the army's artillery roared for half an hour.

During this period, there were even cases of psychologically broken Japanese soldiers jumping over the wall to commit suicide.

Half an hour later, the battle ended, and the Busan raid ended with the victory of the Ming army navy. So far, the last organized expedition fleet of the Japanese pirates was destroyed, and all the sea control of the entire Tsushima Strait was lost to the Ming army navy. As far as we know, the Japanese army has completely lost its control of the sea, and there are no Japanese pirates forming an organized navy from Busan Port to Nagoya.

While the cannons were rumbling, Chen Lin looked at the messy coast, at the busy but high-spirited sailors under his command, and at the flaming artillery, he finally understood Xiao Ruxun's vision.

Artillery is the best partner of the navy. From the moment the artillery was born, gang-jumping tactics were destined to be eliminated. After this battle, gang-jumping tactics will completely disappear from the tactical sequence of the Ming army navy, and will never be used again. It no longer exists, and it is replaced by pure firepower tactics with absolute firepower as the suppressing force!The Great Ming Navy, no matter what, will embark on the path of a big ship and a giant cannon. Absolutely no one can change this fact.

This is the beginning of the Daming Navy's new life!
On the other hand, the Japanese army, during the battle, some quick-witted Japanese also reacted. They found that the Ming army did not take the armistice agreement just signed seriously at all, and tore it up as soon as it said it. Not talking about affection, this inevitably made some Japanese military leaders start to wonder if all this was a farce directed and acted by Xiao Ruxun.

Changshu Zhengjia roared angrily at the meeting: "Xiao Ruxun is playing tricks on us! Using peace talks to deceive us and buy time for their navy! There is no way that so many warships are Korean navy! Daming navy comes Here! Come! You don’t want to let me go out of the city for a decisive battle, and you don’t want to tell you to run away quickly, so here you are, now it’s all right! All land and water routes have been blocked!”

Ishida Mitsunari's head was about to explode, but now that he was scolded, his whole soul was about to explode.

"Retreat, retreat! You know how to retreat! Where is the retreat order?! What about Taige's permission?! Did Taige let us retreat?! No, no, no! Didn't let us retreat! How could you retreat! Where did you come from the power organization? The whole army retreat?! Go to war? You should go! I will give you the command of the whole army! You should go! You should go! Before you leave the city gate, the artillery of the Ming army will kill you! Don’t tell me I, you didn't see how Kato Koyasu died!"
