"What's wrong?"
A group of people looked at each other.
General Long Yan and General Li Chao were present. At this moment, their hearts were focused on this final decisive battle!
Everyone knows.
This battle is so important. It can even be said that it directly determines the life and death of Li Chao.
If they lose, the entire Gyeongsang Province will become a Japanese colony. Not to mention Chungcheong Province and Gyeonggi Province will be implicated to varying degrees. If the Japanese continued to strengthen their troops after occupying Gyeongsang Province, the entire Li Dynasty would not be far away from being overthrown.
careful.
Everyone is very cautious.
On Li Zhenzhu's side, along with Xiao Qian and the soldiers from all over the Li Dynasty who had just arrived for reinforcements, there were a total of 150,000. Since the Western People's Party came to power, the government has returned to normal, and large quantities of weapons and equipment, medicinal herbs, and grain are being transported continuously. At this stage, Japan was not in a hurry to attack.
Because they know it too.
This decisive battle is crucial.
"What's wrong?"
Li Zhenzhu was also shocked.
Could it be that there was something wrong with my information? On the battlefield, intelligence is too important.
Xiao Qian continued to shake his head: "No... the schedule and speed are wrong. Logically speaking, the speed of Mizuno Masashige's army is 70% of the marching speed of our Long Yan army. According to the distance, I am slightly far away from Qinghe Town. We set off at the same time. When They can arrive at the same time as our troops."
He paused and patiently explained: "The Japanese army has many swordsmen, followed by archers, and very few cavalry. Moreover, the carriages used by the Japanese army's logistics troops are the 'Taiping carriages' introduced by Long Yan. Although this carriage can carry The quantity is large, but the speed is extremely slow. Considering the weather in Li Chao in the past few days, the sky is clear and clear. The time for them to arrive in Qinghe Town was in my calculation, so I deliberately delayed their arrival by one day, so that it would be one day later than them... "
The others were shocked when they heard this.
This means that Mizuno Masashige's march was two days late?
Normally, this might not be a problem.
But this situation is wrong!
On the battlefield, seize the day!
As a general, Mizuno Masashige should not make such a stupid mistake!
That means he did it on purpose!
"this……"
"General Xiao means..."
Li Zhenzhu, until now, no longer dared to be disrespectful to Xiao Qian. This general of Longyan is simply too powerful! The battlefield is also a deception! He seemed to have nothing to do and was calculating what might happen on this battlefield.
Xiao Qian slowly closed his eyes.
Others were speechless.
The atmosphere calmed down.
Knock knock knock…
Xiao Qian's fingers slowly tapped the table.
Sudden.
He opened his eyes and said shockingly: "He's asking for help!"
"What?"
Everyone's expressions changed drastically.
Li Zhenzhu's face turned pale.
Others also took a deep breath.
Asking for help?
Now Mizuno Masashige still has 250,000 troops in his hands! He also asked for help. What did he want to do?
Everyone's hearts suddenly sank.
…
Bang, bang, bang.
It’s been a bumpy ride.
The Japanese army singing military songs was like a long dragon on the land of Li Dynasty, and everyone who saw it couldn't avoid it.
Arrogant and domineering.
Burning, killing and looting!
Wherever the Japanese army went, they were like a swarm of locusts, leaving the place barren of grass.
Mizuno Masashige sat quietly in his carriage, listening to the screams of the women of the Li Dynasty in the surrounding carriages, as well as the lewd voices of his generals, one after another.
It seems that listening to these can satisfy his perverted pleasure.
kill!
He knew that this was the only way to make these warriors work for him. Therefore, he is never stingy in this aspect and never pursues so-called morality and benevolence.
War is war.
In order to win, you will do anything you can to win. Why do you need morality?
"General, general, there's a letter from home!"
Just then, the scout came to report.
Mizuno Masashige became excited: "Bring it quickly!"
As soon as he read the content of the letter, he was so ambitious that he couldn't help but stand up, with a twinkle in his eye.
Done!
Mizuno Masashige, before he led the army to set off this time, the situation inside Japan was actually not optimistic. During the Edo period, the Japanese government was in the middle of Edo, and the shogunate's finances were in trouble. Although policies such as the ensuing reform, lenient reform, and natural protection reform were implemented in an attempt to improve the situation, they did not fundamentally solve the problem. Social conflicts are extremely acute, and the Tokugawa family's prestige is no longer there.
It was at this time that Mizuno Masashige, as a general of the Tokugawa family, took the initiative to attack North Korea with the intention of diverting and resolving domestic conflicts!
did not expect.
He really succeeded! Now, the wealth of the entire Gyeongsang Province has been brought back to the Japanese country one by one by him.
The Japanese conservatives who had scolded him before were dumbfounded for a while.
The radicals who supported Mizuno Masashige had already raised the banner within the Japanese country and supported the aggressive war against the Li Dynasty.
Mizuno Masashige also knew.
The next battle will be a fierce battle.
The army from Long Yan is not just ordinary people. It is so difficult to defeat.
So he wrote a letter back to the country, asking for more troops against the Li Dynasty.
If it were the Japanese country in the past, they would naturally not consider it, but seeing Mizuno Masashige, there is only one step away from truly occupying Gyeongsang Province.
The Tokugawa family was also moved.
then.
A slap on the thigh.
Allow Japan to send another 200,000 troops to Mizuno Masashige!
In other words, this time the Japanese army invested a total of 500,000 troops in the Li Dynasty!
Half a million lions!
This time, the bet is on Gyeongsang Province!
"Hahahaha, okay, those old immortals finally got the idea! Finally got the idea!"
Masashi Mizuno is so happy.
"Continue to slow down and wait for reinforcements to arrive! Remember, everyone along the way will be beheaded. I don't want anyone to tip the scales! I want to use these 200,000 troops as surprise troops!"
All the generals responded one after another.
Two hundred thousand surprise soldiers...
If it suddenly appeared in the decisive battle, what would it be like?
The Li Dynasty must be defeated!
The Japanese will surely win!
…
Li Zhenzhu's side has hurriedly sent out batches of scouts, rushing to each direction of Gyeongsang Road.
However.
It's too late.
He sadly discovered that they had lost Gyeongsang Province and some of the transportation fortresses had been completely occupied by the Japanese.
At this time, it is difficult for even a fly to fly over, let alone a scout?
Not only that.
With the invasion of Japan, many people of the Lee Dynasty in Gyeongsang Province had already formed a "puppet army" team, acting as traitors and working for the Japanese country - the Lee Dynasty had always admired the force of the Japanese country and wanted to escape and live there. ideas and habits.
"General Xiao, this..."
A group of generals became confused again.
This scout cannot enter Gyeongsang Province, which means that they have no idea how many reinforcements the Japanese country will have.
That means that they have lost the initiative in the war!
And what they have to face at this time.
There are also "puppet troops" who may serve as cannon fodder for the Japanese country!
situation.
Suddenly it became unclear.
