Chapter 294 Collapse
After hearing Yang Gao's plan to withdraw troops, everyone present was shocked.

Ma Gui hurriedly said: "Your Majesty Jinglue, you must not do this. Our army has already captured the Japanese city of Daoshan. If we order to withdraw our troops at this time, all previous achievements will be wasted. There are many forces, but our army is not invincible. General Huang has occupied the Japanese city of Daoshan, and my teacher has nothing to worry about. Why don't we urgently recruit soldiers to resist and fight the Japanese to the death!"

All the generals at the scene also dissuaded them one after another, saying that it is impossible to withdraw their troops at this time.

Yang Hao said in a daze, "Old General Ma, besides the soldiers and horses stationed in various places, our army actually has no more than [-] people in Ulsan and Dosan. They have fought hard for days and suffered heavy casualties. The soldiers are exhausted, but the Japanese reinforcements are Replenish your energy, and you have tens of thousands more soldiers in our army. If you don’t make a decision immediately, it will be too late to regret when the Japanese army gathers. If our division retreats to Qingzhou, then make another plan!”

Ma Gui is just persuading.

Yang Gao suddenly became furious: "Old General Ma, are you going to disobey the old man's military order?"

Ma Gui was still talking, when suddenly he heard a cannon fire by the Taihe River, followed by the faint sound of Japanese soldiers shouting and killing. The number of people seemed to be tens of thousands. It must be that the Japanese soldiers by the Taihe River had already learned about Busan. The reinforcements came and launched an offensive across the board.

Yang Gao was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he almost couldn't stand upright. An indescribable fear surged in his heart, and he shouted: "The Japanese army has already attacked, if you don't leave, you will be too late!"

He said to the general beside him: "Withdraw the troops, quickly order the withdrawal of the troops, and order the soldiers to put away the camp and retreat to Qingzhou!"

Immediately, his relatives came out and ordered the Chinese army to set up camp, and the Chinese army flag was lowered even more.The sergeants of the standard battalion panicked when they heard that the battalion was about to be withdrawn suddenly.

Ma Gui stood coldly on the ground, and he yelled: "Master Jinglue, even if you want to withdraw your troops, you have to notify the soldiers of each battalion, and let them move the camp in an orderly manner. Why are you in such a panic?"

Yang Gao had no choice but to send some of his own soldiers on horseback to each battalion to inform the local garrison generals to withdraw. He ran wildly to the self-army camp in the north of Daoshan City, and ordered the camp to be set up.

At this time, the soldiers of the various battalions under the Japanese city of Daoshan didn't understand what was going on. When they heard that the Japanese army was attacking, it was nothing. The Japanese reinforcements did not attack once or twice. After the Japanese city of Daoshan was captured, there was nothing wrong with it.

However, after seeing the generals of the own battalion coming on galloping horses, they shouted orders for the soldiers to pack up and prepare to retreat. Immediately, commotion broke out everywhere.

Due to the panic, a lot of food, grass and luggage were abandoned by the battalions. When everyone left the camp one after another, they were out of formation, let alone retreat in an orderly manner, and marched together.

Moreover, this panic caused all kinds of rumors to spread in the army, saying that nearly [-] Japanese reinforcements had already attacked from all fronts, which made the retreating Ming army very cold, and no one thought of forming a formation Fend off the enemy.

Suddenly there was another rumor that the vanguard of the Japanese army had already attacked, less than a mile away from his own side. Yang Gao was even more panicked. He yelled: "Run away!" Suddenly, a group of horses galloped towards Qingzhou.Seeing this, several of his cronies also followed closely and fled.

Seeing the commander fleeing for his life, the rest of the soldiers swarmed towards Gyeongju with a bang, not to mention that all the roads became a mess immediately, and the heavy artillery and chariots were thrown into the ground. Army, even people and horses trampled on each other!

Ma Gui was rushing over with his thousands of troops. His mission was originally planned, but he didn't expect that the tide of chaotic troops rushed in, and immediately broke up his formation, which was in disarray. Magui was stunned...

……

"what?"

Huang Laifu, who was on the castle tower of the Dosan Wajo Castle, couldn't believe his ears. He looked at the entourage sent by Yang Gao in a daze, and captured the Daosan Wajo Castle by himself. The order to escape and retreat?

The pavilion was as quiet as death, and suddenly Huang Laifu let out a desolate howl: "Yang Gao, you lowly pig!..."

"Bold, how dare you..."

Yang Gao's entourage was about to scold Huang Laifu, but he saw Huang Laifu's fiery red eyes staring at him fiercely. He shut up in a panic, but saw a cold light flashing by, followed by blood raining all over the sky, his eyes were full of fear. The head of belief flew into the sky!
The smell of blood spread in the pavilion, all the generals stood still, Huang Laifu put his sword back into its sheath, and suddenly shouted: "General Jiang Shen!"

Jiang Dazhong said loudly: "The end is here!"

Huang Laifu said: "I'll give you five hundred musketeers and one thousand shield soldiers. Do you have the confidence to defend the island?"

Jiang Dazhong said loudly: "Swear to live and die with Daoshan City!"

Huang Laifu said: "Okay, all the generals will follow me!"

His heart is hot, and with him, Huang Laifu, he will never let the Ulsan fiasco in history happen again!A cold light flashed in his eyes, and he swore in his heart: "Old man Yang Gao, I will kill him!"

……

Ma Guiji had no way to gather the army, so he had to involuntarily follow the rebellious army and disperse, only a few dozen cavaliers accompanied him.He couldn't help but burst into tears. He had been in the army for decades, and it was the first time in his life that he encountered such a great humiliation.

When he arrived at a place in Pingchuan ahead, suddenly there was a loud sound of gunfire in front of him. Ma Gui was startled and thought: "Could there be Japanese people here?"

Then someone shouted sharply: "General Huang's order, if anyone dares to speak up and retreat, he will be punished on the spot, and he will be killed!"

Then I heard a crowd of cheers: "Shanxi Army, it's Shanxi Army!"

Then Ma Gui saw thousands of cavalry from the Shanxi Army waiting in formation beside his right hand.The armored general was Huang Laifu. He rode on the horse and looked at the crowd with cold eyes. When he saw Ma Gui, he rode his horse and ran towards this side. Gui, where is Yang Gao?"

Ma Gui was startled, ignored Huang Laifu's rudeness to him, and said loudly: "Master Jinglue has already gone to Qingzhou first!"

Huang Laifu snorted coldly: "A trash! Abandoning the teacher and armor, disregarding the safety of the soldiers, I will see how he dies!"

He scolded Yang Gao unceremoniously in front of everyone, and everyone felt strange when they heard it.Then he looked over with a cold gaze, and shouted at Ma Gui: "Old General Ma, Yang Gao is ignorant of military affairs, and you are just a scumbag. Your army and horse have been working hard for decades. Don't you know that when you collapse in front of the enemy, you will ruin the lives of tens of thousands of Ming children? ?"

Ma Gui involuntarily avoided Huang Laifu's gaze. He naturally had a lot of reasons to argue, but he, as the highest general in the army, also had a lot of responsibility for the current situation.

Ma Chengzhao who was beside him wanted to argue with him, but Ma Gui stopped and said, "General Huang blamed so much, the whole army is like this, it is my responsibility, Ma Gui, after this battle, I will write a letter to the imperial court to impeach myself!"

He sighed and said, "But it's important for the army to retreat right now, General Huang, why don't we break the rear and cover the army's advance!"

Huang Laifu said with a long smile: "Retreat, why retreat? Our army has captured the island and seized the opportunity. Retreating at this time is not a waste of all previous efforts? Even if the enemy reinforcements come, what's the point of mere Japanese slaves? Old General Ma Now that the pursuers have arrived, can we fight side by side with Laifu again?"

Magui looked, and saw that the Japanese army's densely packed flags were already looming, and the number of people was probably tens of thousands. It was Kobayakawa Hideaki who led Shimadzu Yoshihiro, Nabeshima Naoshige, Konishi Yukinagi and other brigades to attack.

In front of the Japanese army, there were some Korean soldiers in white clothes who fled in embarrassment. They were the latest to get the news, and they didn't know how to run until the Ming army brigade ran away.

Immediately, Magui's pride surged, he laughed and said: "Okay, the old man once fought side by side with General Huang in Shigou, even if they died together today, they are still shrouded in horse leather, a worthy death!"

At that moment, he sent an order to gather the rout troops and prepare for battle. The Shanxi Army stood in front of them. The news spread, and the troops were determined. Soon, the rout troops stopped, and Magui gathered thousands of troops.

At this time, Wu Weizhong, Gao Ce, Mao Guoqi and others also gathered more than 2000 cavalry to come back for reinforcements, and the morale of the army was strengthened.Ma Gui and Huang Laifu even sent out servants to send out orders to withdraw to Qingzhou to cancel the order, and strictly ordered the soldiers and horses in the rear not to retreat and break up.

In this way, the Ming soldiers who fled on the road formed their teams one after another, and the army gradually became orderly.However, after counting, it is estimated that the previous collapse, the people and horses trampled on each other, has caused the cost of thousands of casualties.

Looking ahead, those North Korean soldiers still fled desperately, but seeing thousands of Ming soldiers on the Pingchuan in front of the intersection, many of them were still pointing their muzzles at them. After a while, they knew that they couldn't attack the Ming army right now, so they fled from the side. After fleeing to the position, everyone cried loudly, and Qing Xin narrowly escaped death.

Marshal Quan Li of the Korean capital led some of his generals to escape. When he saw Ma Gui, he burst into tears and said, "Old General Ma, what's going on? Why did you retreat suddenly? Many of my sons and daughters didn't escape. ?”

Quan Li is the most miserable part of the coalition army. He led more than [-] troops this time, except for some who stayed in the direction of Shuncheon. There were more than [-] people around the Japanese city of Daoshan. Right now, only a thousand people are with him. The rest of the troops didn't know where they went, and a large part of them died under the pursuit of the Japanese army.

Ma Gui sighed, and persuaded him a few words, Huang Laifu sternly shouted: "Quan Li, get back quickly, don't block my army's position!"

Quan Li was obedient, and hurriedly led his generals to hide behind the position.

There are about tens of thousands of Japanese troops chasing at the moment, and there are about 5000 Ming troops in formation at this time, of which 500 from Huang Laifu are the core, and the rest are people who are still in shock.

In order to maximize its effectiveness, General Huang Laifu's formation was stuck on the land of Pingchuan in front of the intersection.There were 1000 dismounted firecrackers standing in the middle, and dozens of tiger crouching cannons in front, and the remaining [-] sword and shield soldiers rode horses to protect both sides of the firecrackers. It was tightly blocked to ensure that the Japanese army could not attack from both sides.

As for the soldiers and horses of Ma Gui and others, they can only be listed at the back of the army formation. As long as the Shanxi army holds up, they can recover, and maybe they can chase after them. If the Shanxi army does not hold up, they will follow Crashing fate.
