But just when he raised his sword, Yabei looked down and saw the dejected look of these two poor Korean Ashigaru, and was suddenly controlled by a strong sense of déjà vu. 【Read full text】
During the Battle of Osaka in 1616, when the world was conquered, he and his dead father were also in such a state of despair that their father was shot and fell to the edge of the forest. A samurai came and beheaded his father, and he dragged his body unconsciously. Feces and urine flowed all over the floor, and another samurai's sword was pointed at his head. The one holding his father's head turned around and shouted: "Why do you want the head of a stupid kid? You haven't even shaved your forehead, you idiot?" Do you want to shave his head?”
This scene often appeared in his dreams, and each time his head was taken away by a different person. When he woke up, he didn't know whether to hate or thank the other person. If his father had not lost his head, he might not have been adopted by the church, and later he would not have participated in the riots and fled to the world. He might have become a farmer somewhere and farmed for the landlord with peace of mind, or he might have worked as a guard under a famous name in the countryside. …
"Hey, can you still walk?" He hit the older one with the back of his knife: "Are you scared to death? Mute? Deaf? Or a born idiot? How could an idiot give birth to a son? What idiot woman gave birth to you? of?"
Yabei's attitude is very arrogant - ever since "Squad Leader Devil" Yabei Hidetoshi was injured by an arrow, the corporals have been promoted one after another. Originally, it was not his turn to become a corporal as a big-headed soldier, but some real samurai were selected. After joining the senator's cavalry guard, he was promoted to a corporal of the ninth squad as he was born in Ashigaru.
Although this last squad was understaffed - he only had five people in his company, at least he had four big soldiers at his disposal. Yabei naturally vented the countless "love education" he had received on his subordinates. The corporal should have a good time.
Looking at these two naked Korean Ashigaru, Yahei thought that since these two Korean Ashigaru were still alive, let them live. Chiefs love prisoners. Now that the Australians are here, maybe this damn world will be different, right?
…
The Japanese company swept away the scattered volunteers outside Suwon-dong during the dawn search. As Xue Ziliang expected, the rebels did not place enough sentries on the perimeter. Even the most common alarm facilities like beacons are not prepared. After interrogating the captured rebels, Xue Ziliang learned that these Li Chao gentlemen had not yet completed their defense preparations. It seems that they do not think that the "Japanese Kun" will send troops to attack soon.
Xue Ziliang has become accustomed to the poor military level of the natives of this time and space, regardless of their level of civilization, but it is rare to see such a low level: the other party obviously knows nothing about fighting, and in terms of level, it is not as good as the Hainan Island bandits he fought.
Xue Ziliang stood on the hillside, raising his telescope to observe Suwon Cave.
The so-called "hole". There is not really a cave - this is a unique place name in North Korea. Suwon-dong is a large area of gentle slopes in the inland mountains. The terrain is relatively gentle. Although there is insufficient water for farming due to the slope of the terrain, pastures are abundant. It is a good place for grazing cattle and horses.
Master Jin's manor is located on a hill on this gentle slope. Its shape is very different from the North Korean cities Xue Ziliang has seen: it is a simple mountain city. The estate stands on the top of a hill. The top of the mountain is completely flattened into a circular platform. Surrounded by a thick wooden palisade standing on a volcanic rock foundation, there are wooden towers and gatehouses. Inside the fence are many houses and courtyards, probably Mr. Jin’s house and the residences of his slaves.
There are concentric trenches and horses, deer and firewood on the hillside. The road leading to the gatehouse is only a narrow dug road at the front and back. It seems to be very well fortified - of course this is based on Jeju Island's own standards.
In addition to the mountain city itself, there are also three or four villages and large wooden sheds and horse pens scattered nearby. They should be the residences of the manor's slaves and tenants.
Below the mountain city, there are five temporary volunteer camps set up around the mound. The camp and the manor support each other, and there are fences and trenches outside the camp. According to the volunteers' confessions, each camp has about 400 people and is equipped with North Korean-made cannons and blunderbuss.
In Xue Ziliang's opinion, this defensive configuration is not worth mentioning. It looks impressive, but in fact it is nothing more than a chicken and a dog. However, since the opponent is huddled together, it is best to put up a defensive formation and wait for reinforcements - it is much more satisfying to annihilate the enemy's main force at once and capture enough prisoners than to launch a search war all over the island.
But what Xue Ziliang is most concerned about is to capture or eliminate the local powerful people on the island in one battle. Completely dismantle the island's grassroots ruling class. Make political preparations for the next step of gathering villages and merging villages.
The scouts had marked all possible roads to escape the manor, and Xue Ziliang ordered the snipers and Fubo troops of the special reconnaissance team to control these roads and capture prisoners. He doesn't have many troops. Therefore, it was decided to attack the manor directly in one go, using a short blow to plunge the enemy into complete chaos.
At seven o'clock in the morning on April 5th, the Ba Dao Team and the White Horse Team lined up in front of the manor. Although the White Horse Team only had bows and arrows and spears, they were still powerful. The uniform uniforms, uniform equipment, and neat queue exuded a chilling atmosphere. This made the volunteers in the camp soften their feet.
Jin Dahai saw that the Japanese pirates who came here were not genuine Japanese pirates, they were all "traitors" with spears, and there were not many of them. On the contrary, his morale increased greatly, and he decided to go out to fight and show the Japanese Kun some color. He immediately led dozens of his men to cheer up the "rebels" with knives, but he scolded, punched and kicked them. The volunteers finally came out to form a formation.
There were as many as a thousand volunteers in the formation. Except for the more than 200 servants of various lords who were neatly dressed and had better weapons, most of the volunteers only used "short guns" with Korean characteristics. This kind of stabbing weapon that is only as tall as a person has no practical significance in anyone's opinion, but it is almost a decent weapon on Jeju Island.
Although bows and arrows are a specialty of Jeju Island, not many of the volunteers can use bows and arrows. The bow itself is quite expensive. It also requires constant practice. Except for people like hunters who make a living by it, ordinary tenants and herdsmen are rarely good at using it. Therefore, the archers are all servants of each master. In addition, there are fifty or sixty fire guns, of various types, some made by the Li Dynasty government and issued to the officers and soldiers, and some left by the Japanese pirates in the past.
More than a thousand people stood in a disorderly formation in front of the camp. In order to increase the chance of winning, Jin Dahai did not let the team advance too far in order to get support from the cannons in the camp.
However, even a frog in the well like Jin Dahai could see that the opponent was a tiger and wolf force. Although he had more people and strength, he was still a little uneasy, knowing that a fierce battle was inevitable.
The spring breeze blows on the earth, the pasture is green and full of wild flowers. The pasture is so beautiful in spring. The volunteers who were recruited thought about their families at home, and they also thought about not knowing when they would be able to go home after the war: The master had already made a wish, and he had beaten away the Japanese kings, and each of them would be given five measures of barley, and they would be exempted from paying this year's tax. Shengong and Zuzi - at least they can relieve their anger
Suddenly, the Japanese war drums started beating violently, and the formation of the rebel soldiers was in a commotion. The servants who acted as the backstop shouted loudly and tried hard to maintain order.
Rows of soldiers wearing "formation hats" began to walk out of the middle of the White Horse formation. They all held blunderbuss and walked out calmly to the sound of military drums. They quickly spread out in a horizontal formation in front of the battle line.
The beat of the military drum gradually became more rapid, and the soldiers raised their blunderbuss neatly and began to take aim. The volunteers became even more commotion, and the people standing in the first row pushed back one after another, trying to squeeze in behind others.
Seeing something bad, Jin Dahai quickly shouted: "Fire the arrow! Fire the arrow!"
He never expected that the other party would be ready to start shooting from such a long distance. The servants shot the first row of arrows in a messy manner. Most of the arrows fell halfway, and only a few fell in front of the battle line. The entire formation stood motionless, and the drumbeat suddenly stopped.
A row of white smoke erupted from the front line, instantly covering the entire formation. The lead bullets cut through the air and made a whooshing sound, entering the human body, tearing the skin and muscles, shattering the blood vessels and bones. Blood spurted out from the tattered bodies, and screams, wails and screams suddenly enveloped the entire ranks of the volunteers. The volunteers standing in the front row suddenly became confused.
The spring breeze blew away the smoke, and Xue Ziliang could clearly see through the telescope that although the formation of the volunteers still roughly existed, it was in a mess from front to back.
"Blow the trumpet! Mount bayonets and attack!" He had originally planned to fire a few more rows of shots, but now it seemed unnecessary.
Following a burst of passionate bugles, the Japanese soldiers of the security army started the "Pig Rush" with bayonets in their hands and howls. Yabei took the lead, waving a tachi and running wildly with a piercing howl.
"Order the artillery to attack the camp with howitzers." Xue Ziliang ordered, "The White Horse Team is ready to attack!"
"White Horse Team! Get ready!" Following the Fubo Army officer's command, the White Horse Team flattened their spears and prepared to follow the next wave of assault.
Xue Ziliang immediately realized that there was no need for the White Horse Team to attack. The Ba Dao Team pushed forward with a sudden wave, and the volunteers who had been in chaos immediately collapsed. This group of genuine Japanese pirates all had red eyes and shiny bayonets. The volunteers had been frightened by stories about Japanese pirates since they were children. Now they could not stand firm and they immediately dispersed.
Explosions of 12-pound grenades added to the chaos. As these more than a thousand poorly trained volunteers fled in all directions, the people who had been left behind in the village also became chaotic, opening the gates of the village and fleeing.
At first, Jin Dahai desperately urged his servants to maintain order. When the shells fell and exploded, he could no longer summon up the courage to "fight to the death" and fled to the manor on the hill with his servants.
Xue Ziliang crossed his arms and looked at his watch: It has only been ten minutes since the shooting.
He ordered: "White Horse Team, enter! Capture more prisoners."
