I saw that the Japanese who had just disappeared on the land by the sea actually jumped out again and fled towards the coast in a hurry. Judging from their appearance, it looked like some scourge was coming.
This happens in different places, at different times, and everywhere.
Although the Ming army officers and soldiers on the warship were a little far away, they could still see clearly that this was definitely not an act, but that they were really on the run!
As a result, all the officers and soldiers of the Ming army crowded to the edge of the boat near Busan. They looked at the Japanese pirates in surprise and were really surprised. What on earth is going on?
At this time, they may not know it yet, but Masashige Inoue, halfway up the mountain, could clearly see what was going on!
At this moment, he opened his mouth so wide that he could fit an egg into it, and his expression of astonishment reached the extreme.
Just now, he had been dreaming, thinking that Matsudaira Nobutsuna's side had to pay a heavy price and take them by surprise, so they would definitely be able to win the battle. As a result, Matsudaira Nobutsuna's messenger of victory did not wait, but he was very surprised to see the Ming army suddenly coming out.
The mountainside where Inoue Masashige is located has an excellent view, so when the Ming army suddenly came out, he saw it immediately.
To be honest, when he saw it for the first time, he thought he was dazzled. He rubbed his eyes, and when he heard the frightened screams of the guards in his ears, he confirmed that he was not wrong. It was the Ming army who suddenly killed coming.
"It's over, it's all over!" After Masato Inoue came to his senses, he couldn't help but fell back on his chair in despair, looking at the dust rising behind the Ming army, and muttered to himself.
Although he is not the kind who often leads troops to fight, but with such obvious dust, you can tell at a glance that the Ming army is coming. Otherwise, there would be no such big dust! He still has this bit of military knowledge.
Looking at the strength of his men, most of them fled in all directions. There was only a sporadic resistance, and they were all destroyed by the Ming army. This sudden war was not a reciprocal war at all. It was really unprepared, so how could we fight?
Suddenly, Inoue Masashige jumped up from his chair again, with a ferocious expression on his face, and pointed at the north and cursed: "What kind of wisdom is Izu? He is just a fool. He was brought by an army of 50,000 people. If there is no success, why bother?" Want to let the Ming army come over? Even if you bring 50,000 pigs there, the Ming army won't be able to kill them all in a while, so you won't think of sending someone back to report the news..."
If it weren't for the fact that Matsudaira Nobutena led the army to advance northward, which made him feel that Busan was at least safe, he would have always arranged for manpower to be on guard. Of course, this doesn't mean that he didn't send people to guard the surrounding areas, but the number of people sent out without care is naturally limited. For all this, he doesn't blame himself for being careless, but blames Matsudaira Nobutsuna for hurting him!
Seeing Masashige Inoue still cursing there, his bodyguard became anxious and stopped respecting him. He immediately interrupted him and reminded him: "Sir, if you don't leave, there will be Ming troops all down the mountain, and we won't be able to leave!"
"Yes, sir, retreat quickly!"
"..."
Seeing that his personal guards were talking to him, for some reason, Inoue Masashige didn't listen at all. His eyes were dull, and he slowly sat back on the chair, muttering to himself: "It's over, it's really over this time..."
If he had thought he had a chance to redeem himself and make meritorious deeds before, then once again he was defeated and all his troops were lost. Even if he could escape, he knew that he would definitely not escape death.
150,000 troops, plus 50,000 civilians, all died in Korea. This was definitely a very serious blow to the Japanese country. After the General finds out, I wonder if he will be so angry that he vomits blood!
Most of the 150,000 troops are loyal to the general. Now that the entire army has been wiped out, the strength of all the forces in the Japanese country will inevitably undergo a major change. The shogun may not be able to suppress other daimyo. If there are powerful daimyo who have different intentions, can the shogun cope with it?
It seems that it is really impossible to seek the Ming Dynasty, even if it is to covet North Korea. Toyotomi Hideyoshi did this before, but Tokugawa Ieyasu seized power; now, the shogun... I don’t know which daimyo will seize power? After learning two consecutive lessons, it is estimated that within a few hundred years, the Japanese nation will no longer dare to covet the mainland...
"kill……"
Inoue Masashige, who had been in a fugue, was suddenly brought back to his senses by the shouts of killing. He finally gathered his energy and saw that his personal guards were scratching their heads and heads anxiously, like ants on a hot pot.
"Sir, let's go quickly!"
"Sir, let's leave the green hills without worrying about having firewood. We can kill them again someday!"
"..."
Listening to the voices of these personal guards, Inoue Shigemasa felt nothing. Instead, he turned his head and looked down the mountain. Over there, a burst of thunderous shouts of killing broke out, which attracted his attention even more.
I saw those Ming troops, although they were cavalry, at least they had horses, but some were indeed charging into battle on horseback to drive away the Japanese; others were dismounted and fighting on foot, standing in rows, or using their muskets and bows Shooting the Japanese, or using long spears and swords, they advance in an orderly manner.
Most of the Japanese were driven to the beach by these Ming troops, and only a handful of Japanese formed a formation to resist. However, under the Ming army's offensive, it was like huge waves that hit the sky one after another. When they hit, any sand and mud were swept away without a trace.
This was not a war at all, but a one-sided massacre.
Inoue Masashige saw clearly that most of the Japanese were killed by fatal attacks from behind, and there were not many Japanese who dared to face the Ming army soldiers who rushed over.
"Hehehe... Hahaha..." Inoue Masashige suddenly laughed from a low voice, his voice gradually became louder, and then he laughed wildly, as if he was crazy.
His guards who were chattering were immediately dumbfounded when they saw it, and none of them spoke anymore, because they knew that no matter how much they talked, it would be useless.
After Inoue Shigemasa laughed wildly for a while, he slowly drew out his katana, touched the blade gently, then looked at his guard leader and said, "Ida-kun, please!"
Hearing his words, Ida immediately understood what he wanted to do, and his face suddenly tightened, and he wanted to persuade him, but after seeing Inoue Shigemasa's face and thinking about his situation, he finally just nodded solemnly.
"Kill..." The shouts of the Ming army soldiers continued to echo in the sky above Busan.
Inoue Shigemasa moved very slowly, slowly lifting his clothes to expose his belly, then turning the handle of the knife upside down and pointing the tip of the knife at his own abdomen.
That Ida had a serious look on his face, drew his katana, and stood behind him.
As for the other guards, some looked at all this with sad expressions, while others had admiration on their faces; of course, some had a hint of fear in their eyes.
"Kill..." The shouts of killing by the soldiers of the Ming army were louder than the waves, as if Busan was already owned by the Ming army.
But at this time, there was silence on the mountainside, which was completely different from the situation down the mountain.
Inoue Shigemasa suddenly took a deep breath, with a look of determination on his face. The hands holding the back of the knife suddenly exerted force, and the sharp blade immediately pierced his stomach.
Severe pain came from his stomach, making Inoue Shigemasa loosen his hands. It hurt, it really hurt!
At this moment, for some reason, Inoue Shigemasa suddenly remembered the past, the rich food and clothing, the majestic days, the fine wine, the beautiful women, etc.
At the moment when he was about to die, he suddenly realized that he had thought that he would die firmly and in the most honorable way as a warrior, but he never expected that when death was really imminent, he was so afraid of death.
"No, I don't want to die, save me..." Inoue Shigemasa regretted it. The samurai sword had already been thrown to the ground. He was covering his stomach with his hands, but blood was pouring out from between his fingers. "Save me, hurry up, save me." I……"
Before he finished speaking, Inoda's face showed a look of disappointment, but it soon turned into a look of cruelty. Suddenly, with a strong wave, a cold light flashed, and Inoue Shigemasa's head fell to the ground. It rolled a few times before moving. The mouth was still open wide, as if still shouting, "Help me..."
"Kill..." The Ming army soldiers' shouts of killing were getting closer and closer.
Inoue Shigemasa's personal guards saw that the Ming army had reached the foot of the mountain. Unable to bear it any longer, they turned around and ran for their lives.
The fourth generation of the Tokugawa shogunate, Omatsuke, ended his life in Busan, Korea.
His men, except for a few personal guards, naturally didn't know his fate. Of course, they didn't care about him. Most of them were like headless flies. Anyway, the Ming army commander just wanted to escape. The further away from the Ming army, the better.
Those Ming troops were so terrifying, almost like demons!
Their muskets do not need to be fired; their horses are all so tall; their bodies are still so tall; their strength is simply inhuman...
At this time, there was only one thought in the Japanese mind, escape!
Fleeing to the shore, there was nowhere to escape. The Japanese who knew how to swim did not care at all and jumped into the sea to escape from the Ming army. Some Japanese who couldn't swim were often taken into the sea by these Japanese who knew how to swim. Even if they didn't want to jump because they were afraid, they were coerced into jumping.
So, on the coast of Busan, I saw all Japanese people rushing into the sea like flying boats fighting fire. But not long after, the sea was full of Japanese people floating up and down.
The Ming army officers and soldiers on the warship looked at all this in surprise. Finally, they saw the long-lost and familiar military uniforms, and heard the long-lost and friendly shouts of kill.
"Hey, it's the imperial army. My colleagues from the mainland are coming to kill us!" The sharp-eyed soldiers of the Ming Army discovered it first and immediately shouted excitedly.
