When the Kato and Nabeshima families are struggling to support themselves.
What are the other big names doing?
Old Tradition: Have a meeting.
How can we allocate corresponding tasks according to our own interests and strengths without holding meetings?
The daimyo stationed in other areas gathered in Nishimaura, not far from Ishimayama and Jishan. Yes, it was the place where Kato Kiyomasa was originally in charge.
According to the usual practice, some people proposed that all armies should be sent together, while others were hesitant. Some daimyo from a small country with only a few hundred warriors under their command even proposed that they could only send seventy troops at most.
In this way, time passed day by day. Now that the New Year has passed, I am afraid that if troops are not sent to rescue, Kato Kiyomasa will commit suicide by caesarean section.
Finally, Kuroda Takaka stood up and spoke and made up his mind.
This old guy is Kuroda Nagamasa's father. He once offended Ishida Mitsunari during the Imjin Japanese Rebellion and almost committed suicide by caesarean section. In order to gain Hideyoshi's forgiveness, he decided to shave his head and become a monk, no longer involved in the world.
However, Dingyou's rebellion broke out again, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who decided to come here in person, considered that there was a lack of veteran generals on the battlefield who were really accustomed to big storms, so he simply exempted the old Japanese from the crime and let him come here as a staff advisor.
As a result, not long after, news of the death of the heir Kuroda Nagamasa was heard. Kato and Nabeshima, who accompanied the siege at the time, were all still alive, but the Kuroda family's daimyo died.
But even so, Kuroda Takataka still took the overall situation into consideration and actively persuaded everyone to assist Shimayama Castle.
Once Daoshan is lost, Ulsan will cease to exist.
And if Ulsan falls, the entire defense line set up along the river and sea will collapse quickly. In the meantime, all parts will fall apart, and no one will end up well, and it is likely that they will not be able to wait for the arrival of the Kanto heroes.
The Japanese generals who gathered at Sesaengpo include:
Hideaki Kobayakawa, Hideie Ukita, Hidemoto Mori, Kasuke Hachisuka, Takatora Toudo, Anji Wakisaka and others.
Putting aside the garrison troops stationed in their respective defense areas, the total strength is more than 50,000. They are not afraid of death and have regained the spirit of Renchennian. Their combat power can definitely compete with the Ming and Dynasty coalition forces.
According to the usual practice, we should discuss how many troops each family will send and argue for a while. After all, no one is willing to let their own strength be lost in vain.
Especially since the Kwantung Allied Forces are about to arrive. They can be allies or enemies. They have to find a way to defend themselves. In any case, they must ensure 70% of their full power.
However, Toyotomi Hideyoshi arrived.
Needless to say, with just a look, all the daimyo clapped their chests and said that all the troops gathered in Nishiengura would press forward.
Historically, the Japanese army's successful rescue operation only gathered more than 13,000 people.
The highest-ranking Mouri Hidemoto gritted his teeth and sent three thousand troops. The other daimyo had more than a thousand and as few as seventy. The vanguard officer was Kuroda Nagamasa.
Now, Kuroda Nagamasa received the lunch box.
Fifty thousand troops came out in full force.
From an objective perspective, the Japanese have a greater chance of winning the war. After all, there is one less Kuroda Nagamasa, more general-level combat power, and nearly 40,000 troops.
The Kobayakawa family and the Haesuga family took the lead and headed for Ulsan via Changwon and Yeonyang. The other armies followed and surrounded the Ming army in three directions, fighting a turnaround!
In fact, Kato and Nabeshima have always believed that each family will come to rescue, and the importance of Ulsan is self-evident.
Is it possible to keep it?
Really eat dirt.
More than half of the samurai who originally had high morale starved to death. Among those who survived, only one out of ten had combat prowess. Those who could control firearms vigorously and inflict long-distance strikes on the coalition forces were considered good.
If not, why are you thinking about peace talks?
The time is the second day of the Lunar New Year.
The meeting is tomorrow.
Yang Hao, who was ready to play tricks on the little devil, waited for bad news. Scouts from other areas came to report that a large group of enemies were coming from the direction of Xishengpu.
In addition, water and land go hand in hand.
There were hundreds of warships on the sea, heading from Busan to Yanpu, which made Yang Hao angry.
No matter how many troops there are on the road, they can still be resisted.
But what about the Japanese navy?
The navy of the Lee Dynasty that was supposed to play a role never appeared. What about Yi Sun-shin who was accustomed to creating miracles?
Even though Yang Hao had made preparations in advance and imagined that his allies would be unreliable as always, he still couldn't help but complain and be disgusted when he encountered the Japanese army's formation.
Why does God always have trouble with me?
Seeing that the Japanese defense of Shimayama was about to collapse, Kato Kiyomasa entered the city.
Seeing that the Japanese emperor couldn't stand it any longer, and that peace talks were about to begin in one day, his reinforcements appeared on the road.
Could it be that God is blind?
Yang Hao is unwilling to give in!
Everyone has a gambling habit, but it depends on the specific situation. The strategic envoy ordered two northwest generals, Zangsai and Pogui, to go to the riverside to defend.
The same is true for Wu Weizhong and Mao Guoqi.
The intention is very obvious. The two groups combined to have nearly 10,000 troops are not aimed at the Shimayama Army, nor the Army in the direction of Nishioura, but specifically for the waterproof divisions!
If we don't have the corresponding strength to conduct a surface confrontation and use all kinds of artillery to defend it, as long as we tightly block the news of the enemy's reinforcements for one day and persist until Qingzheng comes to discuss surrender on the third day of the Lunar New Year, everything will be done!
There is no doubt that Yang Hao has staked all his treasures on tomorrow's talks.
Since ancient times, when an army commander needs to rely on luck and destiny to fight against the enemy, defeat is not far away.
The north wind suddenly picked up, and the temperature, which had already caused ordinary soldiers to complain, dropped sharply again.
If the war situation does not improve, the Ming army with sufficient food supplies may not be able to sustain it for long.
Lu Li and the other actors didn't try to persuade him anymore. They contacted each other secretly and planned another thing together.
As for Yang Jingluo, he spent the second day of the Lunar New Year in a state of restlessness. During this period, he neither adjusted the deployment of the Liaodong Army nor reinforced the camp against the enemy troops coming from the direction of Xishengpu.
Uneasy and excited.
Ming calendar, the third day of the Lunar New Year.
Yang Hao got up early and, accompanied by Lu Li and others, went to the location for the peace talks. Since no specific time was agreed upon, everyone sat and waited all day.
The expectation was unexpectedly disappointed.
Even though the actor took action to ensure that no spies tipped him off, Kato Kiyomasa was not warned and still did not leave the city.
As for the reason, it was a whim.
Even if there were Taoist priests who accompanied the army to help cover up the movements of the elites in Liaodong and cover up their murderous intentions, there were still some clues.
At this time, Yang Hao began to panic, and everyone acted according to the plan. If the court failed to capture Ulsan, only his good brother Li Rumei would help share the responsibility when the court held him accountable.
In addition, he wasted a whole day and failed to kill Kato and Nabeshima, nor to stop the source of power on the Japanese army's path.
"My lord, I would like to propose a siege to the city for reinforcements."
"Stop gambling."
Lu Li teamed up with Ma Gui and the Nanbing representatives to enter Yang Hao's tent.
The manager who has been stupid for so long, if no one stops him, will continue to be stupid, like a primary school student on summer vacation, he keeps wandering, and finally the vacation is about to end, and it is too late to make up for it——
He gave up the siege and called for reinforcements, and decided to take another gamble. Like a gambler with a red eye, he asked the entire army to gather and capture Daoshan Castle in one go.
The siege of the city was unsuccessful, and a large number of Japanese reinforcements arrived. How did the coalition forces deal with it?
He had never thought about this situation! !
If possible, Lu Li wanted to whip this chief officer to death with a riding crop and bring harm to the three armies!
"A little knowledge makes you think twice."
Admiral Ma Gui suppressed his anger and said.
Except for Li Rumei and Yang Hao, after judging the situation, all the middle and senior generals believed that——
There is still a chance of success in the siege and reinforcements, but a desperate attempt will lead to a dead end!
Lu Li knew that the fact that his defeated general Kato Kiyomasa dared to come meant that he had a new trump card.
