Chapter 325 Vulnerable
'Bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...'
'Bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...'
'Bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...'
Although the gunfire was messy, it continued and the sound did not decrease at all.
The divisions equipped with rifles no longer have to fire in unison, they all shoot freely. Some soldiers have fast hands and can shoot fifteen bullets in one minute, but most likely they shoot ten bullets in one minute. , but also while aiming.
The Kangxing rifle with a range of 500 paces hit the North Korean troops who rushed up and were defeated. Even the North Korean troops holding large shields were concentrated by the kinetic energy of the bullets, causing incalculable casualties.
The Jiannu Supervisory Team behind them had already weakened their hands by killing the Koreans.
Airli's face was ashen. Tens of thousands of troops started to retreat within less than a stick of incense.
'Dong dong dong...'
The artillery fire was naturally not from Chen Cao's side. His field artillery and Shenwu artillery were still being disassembled and landed.
Xin Laosan looked at the bouncing iron bullets and immediately ordered the sergeants to spread out to avoid being affected by the iron bullets. However, some unlucky people were hit after all.
It immediately fell apart.
"put..."
'Bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...'
'Bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...'
The sound of gunfire continued, and no Korean army was willing to appear within a thousand steps of Xin Laosan's headquarters, because they clearly discovered that even if they were 800 steps away, someone would still be shot. Although they would not die, they could still be seriously injured.
If Alley hadn't ordered the supervising team to go on a killing spree to block the North Korean troops who wanted to flee, he would have had no choice but to retreat now.
"What it is?"
Erlan didn't know that his previous defeat was also due to the muskets fired by his opponents ashore: "The muskets in the hands of the Ming army hit extremely far. Master, what do you think if we withdraw to Seoul first and rely on Seoul's city walls for defense?" ?”
"Can't retreat yet..."
Airli looked at the North Korean army in front of him with unkind eyes: "If the morale of these stick soldiers is broken, they may also hinder us. My Arma's army will not be able to reach Seoul at least tomorrow."
When Airli followed Jierharang and rushed into Seoul, many of the defenders had water and fire round sticks in their hands, and some even had short sticks a few inches long. Therefore, after Seoul was defeated, Li Jie surrendered. Airli and a group of Jurchens called the Korean army "Bangzi Army", and Huang Taiji in Shenyang also called them "Korean Bangzi Army".
This is naked contempt.
Erlan then clasped his fists and said, "Master, please attack first."
Airli nodded: "You must be careful, my golden Jurchen warrior cannot die in vain."
"twitter..."
.
"Here we go again..."
Xu Tao shouted, and then looked at Xin Laosan behind him: "The hotel seat..."
Xin Laosan also saw it. He took the rifle from the soldier and pulled the bolt: "Each regiment spreads out and be careful of their artillery ricochet."
'Bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...'
'Bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...'
'Bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...bang bang bang...'
A large area of the charging North Korean army fell to the ground. Erlan didn't care about many of them. He shouted and led three hundred cavalrymen, waving sabers and crossbows, and rushed towards Xu Tao's troops in front.
"The enemy is 300 paces away, shoot freely..."
The gunshots were loud and dense, and the bullets were like a heavy rain falling on the Niulu of Erlan's army directly in front. Countless people were shot and killed. Some horses were hit and fell off their horses and were trampled to death by the horses behind them. .
Erlan was lucky. His mount was hit by a bullet. The horse fell to the ground wailing. He rolled to the side with his strong body. The soldiers behind him rushed to save him. Erlan, who retreated under the hail of bullets, discovered that his Only a dozen of Niulu's elites came back at this moment.
Many people were hit and killed by bullets flying from behind while turning their horses' heads to slow down.
Airli saw all this, his eyes were bloodshot, and he couldn't believe that all three hundred of his elite troops were almost wiped out without even being seen, and the nearest dead man was not even a hundred steps away from his opponent's position. Did not arrive.
"These bright dogs... I'm going to kill you all..."
Erlan ran back to stop the frantic Airli, and then said: "Master, you can't stay here for a long time, leave quickly..."
Someone suddenly shouted in Korean that the Ming army was coming...
As a result, the Korean army was in chaos, and the puppet generals could no longer care about the slave masters behind them, and fled one after another.
Upon seeing this, Airli also knew that a hero should not suffer the immediate losses, so he quickly retreated with his men.
Chen Cao put down the telescope and nodded expressionlessly. It was necessary for this battle to be fought like this. If there were unstable factors like the North Korean puppet army inside, Xin Laosan and his subordinates would not be able to do anything. After defeating him, Chen Cao also felt that he could kick the brigade commander out of the first division.
Li Yan was lucky enough to get a telescope from Chen Cao. He was a little surprised. In the battle of Beihan Mountain City, Li Chengyu's command was the elite of Korea. However, after the direct battle with Jiannu, they could only hold on for half an hour before the entire army collapsed. Still, Relying on the fortification of the mountain city, Jiannu was kept out.
But now, the Ming Dynasty King Master in front of him actually used no more than a stick of incense to defeat nearly ten thousand opponents and fled.
"If it weren't for the poor roads on North Korea's border, we might have been able to annihilate all the North Korean puppet troops in this pursuit."
Feng Zhongping walked up to Chen Cao and reported the battle situation, which naturally fell into Chen Cao's eyes, and then he nodded and asked Feng Zhongping to prepare the troops.
Chen Cao turned his head and smiled: "Ayara-kun, what do you think of the combat effectiveness of our Ming army?"
Li Yan could also guess that this was Chen Cao's demonstration against him, so he bowed his hands in an unusually respectful manner: "The combat power of the Heavenly Soldiers of the Kingdom of Heaven is not comparable to that of the Kingdom of Korea, but it is the Jin soldiers... Oh no. , even if they build slaves and rebel soldiers, they are no more than mediocre."
Before Nurhaci's death, he established the Jin Dynasty. After the Jiannu invaded North Korea, North Korea called the Jiannu the Jin soldiers, forgetting that they were the Jurchen army in Jianzhou.
I remember that when North Korea invaded the north bank of the Yalu River, Li Chengliang also drove tigers and devoured wolves, and asked the Jianzhou Jurchens to send troops to defeat the North Korean army. Among these Jianzhou mercenaries was Nurhachi's father.
Chen Cao smiled noncommittally, then walked away and asked, "Ayara-kun, what do you think of your brother?"
Li Chu was stunned for a moment, then looked a little embarrassed. Chen Cao waved his hand and said: "Tell the truth, just like what I said when you sent people here, even if the entire territory of North Korea is wiped out, Li Chu's throne will not be preserved." .”
Chen Cao's words seemed to give Li Yan a reassurance, but thinking that he was his elder brother after all, Li Yan slowly said: "The king's accession to the throne comes at a troubled time in Korea. However, Korea regards the Ming Dynasty as its suzerain. Naturally, we cannot accept another master. The king may be getting old."
Chen Cao turned his head and glanced at Li Yan behind him with interest. What this guy said was really interesting. He clearly coveted the throne of North Korea, but he still maintained his demeanor. He was even willing to say a bad word about his own family. It was all Confucian conversion thinking. Kicking the ball: "Well..."
Li Li noticed that Chen Cao responded and stopped talking. Perhaps he felt that he had answered wrongly, so he heard Chen Cao ask again: "Who are the people in the two classes of Korea who are surrendering to the slaves now?"
Li Rudao: "Zhao Dongxue, the leader of the government, Jin Zhengmin, the official judge, and Pu Zhengxin, the training supervisor, all surrendered to the slaves; other officials from various ministries in the court also chose the former, and the three representatives behind them were Haiyuan Zhao and An. The three major families, the Dongjin family and the Cheolwon Park family, all follow the lead of the three of them."
Political struggle is the last thing Chen Cao wants to get involved in, especially foreign countries: "The training supervising government oversees the military power of North Korea. With your choice today, have you ever thought about what happens if the army under my command is defeated by the slaves and withdraws?" manage?"
Li Er was stunned when he heard this, and bowed his head behind Chen Cao: "Please also ask His Majesty Prince Liang to save my country from the fire and water."
Chen Cao smiled and shook his head: "Let's go, let's march to Seoul."
.
There are only one hundred and twenty soldiers under the command of the Yiwei Division of the Crown Prince, who are divided into two military attachés, the left and right Yiwei.
Prince Lee of Joseon (it was originally the word "王" with a mountain above it, but I couldn't find it, so I read it "wa")
g) He was originally going to set off for Shenyang as a hostage next month, but as a result, his schedule was affected after the Ming army landed in Inchon, causing him to stay outside the palace.
Zuo Yiwei Han Jinzhe walked into the crown prince's annex outside the palace with a serious look on his face, straddling his sword, and saw Li Li himself in the room who was having a secret meeting to study at Sungkyunkwan University.
"My lord, the Jin people have been defeated..."
Da Ti Xue Shen Shijun raised his eyebrows and asked first, "Seriously?"
Han Jinzhe glanced at Li Jing, then turned around and nodded: "It is absolutely true that the army led by the Jin people and the governor Zuo General Pu Anmin was defeated by the Ming army on the north bank of Luliang. It has now withdrawn to Seoul. According to the news, the Ming army is very It may arrive in Seoul today."
Shen Shijun laughed, and then felt that he had lost his etiquette in front of the crown prince, so he bowed his head and apologized: "I have lost my courtesy..."
Li Yi tried his best to restrain his excitement, then turned to look at Han Jinzhe: "Is there any other important news?"
"have..."
Kong Cheng, the right guard, opened the door outside the door, walked in and saluted Li Li first: "Kanghua's left-behind Lord Ayara, who was stationed in Tongjin, led the navy to assist the Ming army in landing."
"Okay, okay, Uncle Wang is really my savior of North Korea..."
Shen Shijun was shocked when he heard this, which made Li Er, who was praising Li Yan, suddenly feel strange. Shen Shijun trembled and said: "The Lord Ayahara launched an army to fight back, and now that the Jin people are defeated, will they attribute the reason for the failure?" On the royal family? Not good..."
Shen Shijun looked at Li Li: "The Jin people may massacre the royal family when the city is broken."
Li Li was shocked: "Teacher, are you talking nonsense?"
"Hey," Shen Shijun shook his head: "The King Ayara represents the Korean royal family, and now the King has chosen to join the Jianzhou Jin Kingdom. Doesn't this push the King to the opposite side of the Jin people?"
