Yuechuan Dunbao, in the southeast, there is a small forest under the low hill.
"The pier itself is only less than one foot high, but because it is built on a hill, the height has reached three feet invisibly. In addition, there are more than two hundred defenders. We are eager to It is estimated that it will be difficult to capture, so we should wait until the main force of the fleet arrives before making plans!" Wang Tang took the brass telescope handed by his subordinates, and slowly pointed the mirror at the Yuexuan Dunbao on the hill, and then used the latter to With his unclear lenses, he could clearly see the specific situation of Yuexuandun Castle! Although the walls of this fort built on a hill are not high, the Korean soldiers stationed there are not elite. The two bowl-mouth blunderbuss on the wall are even old items from more than fifty years ago. They can't be fired at critical moments. They are two different things, but it is still a huge obstacle on the way forward of the vanguard. If there is no artillery for attacking the fort, just relying on the flag army under Wangtang, plus seven or eight light cavalry, even if it can be barely taken, by then If the loss is too great, the gain will outweigh the gain! Therefore, this guy decided to delay and wait for the change. He wanted to wait until the main force of the long-range fleet arrived, then assemble a large army and attack this mountain fort that seemed easy to defend and difficult to attack under the cover of artillery.
"Saliwen, Yang Gushan, you two take turns to supervise these Korean gangsters. As long as they don't come out, you can leave them alone. If they dare to come out and die, you can restrain them. We will prevent them from coming back. !" After carefully observing Yuechuandun Fort, Wang Tang had the intention to retreat, but having the intention to retreat did not mean that he gave up, so he kept the Yebuzhus and monitored Yuechuandun Fort in turns, as long as The defenders kept to themselves and stayed in the pier and did not come out to cause trouble to Chiyang's vanguard, so they ignored them; but if they didn't know how to appreciate it and tried to show off their muscles to Chiyang, that would be okay. Although Wangtang only had seven men under his command, The eight cavalrymen refused to stop at night, plus thirty-five flag troops, but he was not afraid, and that was it! Based on the poor performance of the soldiers in the Royal Camp, Wang Tang really didn't take these stick soldiers to heart, especially since the number of these guys did not exceed 300. The former did not believe that they dared to give up their geographical advantage and come out to fight with him in the field!
And what happened next proved that his response was correct! After receiving the news of the defeat of the Royal Camp Hall, the Korean defenders in the Wolchodun fort not only cowered in the fort and did not dare to move, but also sent messengers across the sea to Gimpo County on the opposite side to ask for reinforcements. Just kidding, the thieves who came this time couldn't even defeat the elites of the imperial camp. I wanted to fight with them like a rotten cabbage and stinky radish, but when the time came, others didn't get their heads, but I accidentally lost my life. In the mud ditch!
"Brothers, don't irritate those stick defenders too much. We just need to rest for a while and fire a round of arrows to make them miserable..." As for their reactions, Saliwen, Yang Gushan and others were watching. In his eyes and in his heart, their mission was to monitor the Bangzi defenders. Now these turtles huddled in the fort and did not dare to show their heads, but they just suited his liking. Anyway, if my group wants to capture the bastard cover of Yuechuan Dunbao, they can't do it without the help of artillery. For now, the Koreans can stay here if they want. When the time comes, the expedition fleet arrives, the cannons fire, and the infantry With such a charge, we can survive together for an hour or two!
It is the nineteenth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar, the seventh day after the Chiyang expedition fleet set off from Tuoji Island.
Facing the cold wind that started blowing outside at some point, Wang Tang stood on the trestle, holding up a brass telescope and began to look at the distant sea. This was the third day after the communication ship left, but the Chiyang Expedition Fleet The main force is still missing. It doesn't matter if the main force of Chiyang Expedition Fleet has not arrived. The key issue is that the Goryeo garrison on Ganghwa Island has assembled nearly a thousand troops. In addition to Goryeo's military force, there are 500 men in the imperial camp, as well as the Ganghwa area. There are more than 400 volunteers. Under the unified command of the officer Pu Yuandao, they continuously send out elite soldiers to inspect the situation in the temporary camp, and prepare to attack Chiyang's vanguard troops after receiving accurate information! In addition, I don’t know if they got some news, but the sticks who had been hiding in the Yue Chuan Dun Fortress started to make moves. Not only did the Sun Tzu take advantage of the geographical advantage and started to fight back, they also tried to take the initiative to leave the fort to expel Chi Yang Ye Bu Sheng, and this Very disgusting! If Wang Tang mobilizes all his men to assist Ye Bu Su, the temporary camp may be attacked by Pu Yuandao's troops. However, if Ye Bu Suu withdraws his troops and does not have the upper hand, he may lose the intelligence he has been collecting. Advantage. Therefore, Wang Tang is somewhat in a dilemma at the moment. At the same time, he also hopes that the main force of the expedition fleet will arrive quickly. If he doesn't come, he should pack up and get out! After all, Goryeo has a large army, and he only has two or three big cats and kittens under his command. Once they are surrounded by people on this island, the Chiyang tribe members of the 30s and 40s will not be able to fly out even if they put on their wings. When they think of themselves He and his subordinates would be hacked to death, and their heads would be hung on the short city for public display. Wang Tang's scalp was a little numb. He was brave and not afraid of death, but he didn't want to die such a meaningless death! Therefore, what he must do every day now is to stand on the trestle and make a fortune-telling stone, hoping that one day the expedition fleet with six or seven large ships will appear in front of him with a "biu" sound!
"If we don't come today, we should withdraw. Saliwen said that the stick officer named Pu Yuandao has sent a large number of elite scouts out to drive away our Ye Bushou. They are almost unable to stop them. If we don't stop them, Let's go, I'm afraid we won't have a chance to leave!" With a slightly disappointed look in his eyes, Wang Tang slowly took back his monocular telescope, lowered his head and started to turn around and walk towards the temporary camp. However, within ten steps of walking out, he fell behind. Hu Dacheng, the sentry commander who was next to him, said to him in a trembling voice, "Ship, steward, our ship is here!"
"Uh, what, ship, our ship is here, great, great, really great, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up, ask our people to quickly organize the temporary trestle to welcome the main force of the expedition fleet. !" Reaching out and rubbing his eyes vigorously, Wang Tang followed where Hu Dacheng's finger pointed and raised the brass telescope again. Sure enough, where this guy could see, a small black dot appeared, a small black dot that gradually became clearer, and then more and more small black dots appeared in his field of vision! Soon, the Chiyang Expedition Fleet, which was going against the wind and the current, raised its heavy sails to break through the waves and arrived at the temporary camp on Ganghwa Island! It was getting lively now. Medium-sized ships such as sentry boats, Haicang boats, and sand boats kept putting down firewood boats. Small rowing boats assisted the ships in entering the port. Bird boats and eight-foot centipede boats took advantage of their shallow draft and began to row. They moved forward together and rushed towards the temporary trestle. In just half an hour, the seven or eight sailboats of the Chiyang Expedition Fleet had already stopped steadily next to the simple trestle. Then, the Chiyang tribe members who were armed with live ammunition began to advance down the springboard. They were wearing uniform black cloth jackets and black turbans on their heads. Some elites also had iron-inlaid cotton armor and chainmail equipment. Look. When he got up, he had a fighting and high-spirited aura. When Wang Tang and others who came to pick him up saw the large group of people arriving, they all showed ecstatic looks on their faces. They had suffered for such a long time, and now they finally waited for reinforcements. , now I finally don’t have to worry about being blocked on this unfamiliar island, and then chopped into ten and eight pieces and thrown into the sea to feed the fish!
"My lord, you are fortunate to have fulfilled your duty. Your subordinates have completed the construction of the temporary camp, and Jinjing Mountain City and Yuechuan Dunbao are also under our surveillance at this time, but, but..." When the two sides met, Wang Tang took the lead to step forward and salute. After paying homage to his leader, the joyful infantry officer let the Kangda family, who were tired from the journey, sit at the head of the temporary meeting hall. He had too many things to report to the latter at the moment, but the most important thing was It's still a scout problem! Since the main force of Chiyang has not yet arrived, the elite Ye Bushou of the Goryeo Imperial Camp have taken full initiative in the fierce scout battle. Now the Goryeo people are almost reaching out to the temporary camp. If they don't get rid of them Get rid of them quickly, the next step is for them to bite your nose and hit your eyes! Wang Tang became anxious when he thought that the battlefield might be obscured by those Korean sticks and that his side would not be able to get any useful information. Fortunately, the main force of the fleet had arrived. Now he had to seize the time to advise his leader to send out elites to solve this problem. question.
"Nothing, just say it properly, don't hesitate..." Seeing that his capable general was hesitating in his words, it was very uncomfortable. Kanglin Kangda Baihu, who was originally sitting on the boat, snorted coldly. , Yan Si, the painting official next to him, stepped forward and reprimanded the former to reply properly and not leave half of what he said. At the same time, Wang Tang's supervisor Fan Jingfan also had a stern beard and began to criticize this guy for doing something bad. Suo, you are obviously a grown man, why do you speak and do things so slowly? You are simply embarrassing yourself!
"Chief, Zan Hua, boss, but the Koreans are very aggressive these days. Their scouts are constantly driving us away at night. Our people are almost retreating to the temporary camp, but they are still approaching us. If we don't send elites to drive them away, our battlefield initiative will be taken away by them..." Taking the simple case in front of Kang Lin as a boundary, Chiyang's accompanying officials were divided into two standing classes. The civil servant was headed by Yan Siyan Zanhua, behind him are the official Yan Xiaosong, the official Chang Jiansheng, the official Sun Wumu, the military attaché is headed by General Fan Jingfan, behind him are the iron army commander Wan Hong, the sentry commander Zhan Dagao, Hu Dacheng, Lu Dongsheng, and relatives In front of the guard commanders Huang Chong and Dong Jimao, Wang Tang felt that he didn't need to hesitate at all, so he just poured out the situation at hand like beans poured out of a bamboo tube.
