With this thought in his mind, he was afraid that the Japanese army staying behind would not be able to hold off the Ming army for too long. Therefore, Matsudaira Nobutsuna did not want to stop for a moment and led the army back to his hometown in Busan as fast as he could.
This kind of march was organized in the beginning, but as it ran, the organization was dispersed. In this regard, Matsudaira Nobutsuna cannot ask for more. Anyway, when we return to Busan, we will naturally be able to restore the system.
On this day, Matsudaira Nobutsuna was on his way when he suddenly heard a noise coming from the front of the team.
Haven't we arrived in Busan yet? Have we met the scouts? While he was thinking about it, he saw the team in front of him separated, and then a Japanese man in a state of embarrassment came over.
Matsudaira Nobutsuna took a closer look and was suddenly a little dumbfounded. In such a hurry to escape, he actually forgot about it. If possible, he would want to hide first.
"Lao Naka-sama, I thought I would have to retreat to Busan before I can see you!" This man came to Matsudaira Nobutsuna and said in a calm tone.
In this short period of time, Matsudaira Nobutsuna had rebuilt his own psychological defense line, and said with a serious look on his face: "Kameda-kun, you retreated too hastily, and the Ming army saw your flaw, which resulted in My ambush strategy didn’t work!”
"..." Kameda under the tree was stunned when he heard this.
He didn't expect Matsudaira Nobutsuna to catch up from behind with a large army, and from this he understood that Lord Laonaka had no intention of rescuing him at all, but only used him as bait.
To be honest, if anyone knows that he can be sacrificed by his boss casually, no matter how open-minded he is, he will definitely feel uncomfortable to some extent. Therefore, even though Kameda Shushita came over without blaming him, the respect he used to face his superiors was gone.
As a result, he didn't expect that he didn't even bother to question him, but Matsudaira Nobutsuna turned around and questioned him. In other words, he couldn't ambush the Ming army, and it was still his fault.
But obviously, Matsudaira Nobutsuna didn't really mean to put all the blame on him, and immediately added: "But it's good if you come back. If you have any questions, we'll talk about it in Busan. It's important to get on your way first!"
When Shushi Kameda heard this, he immediately suppressed his resentment and asked immediately: "Did the Ming army catch up?"
"Go, go, go! Don't stop!" Matsudaira Nobutsuna shouted to the guards around him, asking them to convey the order. Then, as he walked, he said to Kameda Shushita who was following him: "Our army is in a sorry state. , the Ming army must know, and will definitely pursue it. Therefore, we must rush to Busan as soon as possible, join forces with Damufu, counterattack the Ming army, and let the Ming army know that if they dare to pursue us, they will pay the price!"
After hearing this, Kameda under the tree thought of the Ming cavalry he had seen in Seoul. His heart suddenly tightened and he immediately said: "Those Ming cavalry were tall and powerful, not to mention how powerful the Japanese were. Even their armor and muskets are far superior to our army. Even if we get to Busan, can we defeat the Ming army?"
The Ming army were all northern men, so naturally they were not as tall as dwarfs. The same was true for the previous Jianlu, but at that time, the Japanese still had reasons to look for. They felt that they were good at using firearms, and since they were tall, they were just a bigger target.
But this time, Shushita Kameda had already seen the Ming army's firearms in the contact battle between Seoul and the Ming army. He discovered that Ming military firearms could fire automatically without lighting the match rope in advance. As a result, they fired faster and were arranged more closely. Their musket fire was no match for the Ming army. It can be said that the Japanese army was completely crushed by the Ming army. This was also the reason why he did not dare to stay in Seoul even if he did not get the military order.
When he heard Matsudaira Nobutsuna's words, he felt unsure. In order to prove the correctness of his point of view, he even compared the two sides.
Not to mention, Matsudaira Nobutsuna led the army to North Korea. Although he had lost about 60,000 troops, he had never fought with the Ming army at all. Although he had some understanding of the situation of the Ming army, his subordinate Kameda said , there are some things he really doesn’t know.
Upon hearing this, he was immediately stunned.
Before coming to North Korea, as the commander-in-chief of the first army, he naturally knew about the Ming army in advance. Even before he came to North Korea, he visited veterans who had fought with the Ming army. What he learned was that the firearms of the Ming Dynasty were not as powerful as the Japanese army, but the artillery was more powerful than the Japanese army.
In fact, this is true. The shotguns of the Ming army were actually captured from the Japanese army and then copied in large numbers. In terms of muskets, at least in the past, they were indeed inferior to those used by the Japanese army. Coupled with the corruption at that time and the fact that many muskets had explosive chambers, the Japanese further deepened the impression that the firearms of the Ming Dynasty were inferior to those of the Japanese.
How many years have passed and the Ming army has changed so much? Matsudaira Nobutsuna was very shocked, but he quickly came to his senses. In order not to affect his morale or his image, he immediately said to Kameda Shushita: "The army over at Ometsu has been resting for many days. We should be able to Waiting for work, we beat the Ming army, which was exhausted from the hasty pursuit. In a war, the key is to look at people, not weapons and equipment. Otherwise, what is the future of our great Japanese country?"
They are all Japanese, and they all have a dream to conquer the Central Plains Dynasty, and Kameda under the tree is no exception. Therefore, these warriors naturally refused to admit that their innate conditions were insufficient and had no hope of defeating the Ming army!
Therefore, after Kameda Jushita heard what Matsudaira Nobutsuna said, he nodded in agreement. However, he did not immerse himself in the journey. Instead, he followed Matsudaira Nobutsuna and made another request: "Lao Naka-sama, my subordinates have been starving for many days. Please allocate some military rations to help my subordinates." You can have a full meal here!”
Hearing this, Matsudaira Nobutsuna almost ducked. He did not expect that Kameda would make such a request to him.
He couldn't help but want to complain. If he had to have food, why would he be so embarrassed?
Seeing that Matsudaira Nobutsuna didn't speak, Kameda Kameda added: "My subordinates have no strength to withdraw. It's also strange that edible wild vegetables and other such things are rare along the way! Otherwise, The subordinates can go back to Busan on their own."
After hearing this, Matsudaira Nobutsuna lamented in his heart: Those wild vegetables have already entered the belly of the army.
However, he naturally did not point it out. Instead, he quickened his pace and walked forward. At the same time, he said: "Let's have a meal together when the army rests. It's urgent to get on the road right now!"
After hearing this, Kameda under the tree was about to try again, when he suddenly heard a noise coming from the front, and the sound became louder and louder, as if something big had happened. This made him hesitate to say anything first, but looked up.
When there was noise before, it was the people in front who met the people from Kameda under the tree, which caused trouble to Matsudaira Nobutsuna. Now there was noise again, which made Matsudaira Nobutsuna even more unhappy, so he shouted loudly: : "You still have the energy to make a noise. It looks like your stomach is full, right?"
If it were changed before, this kind of thing of threatening to eat would be absolutely immediate. But at this time, the people in front not only did not calm down, but the noise became louder and louder, and you could faintly hear it.
"...What...isn't possible..."
"...How is it possible...what the hell..."
"...Ming army...fei..."
"..."
Hearing these sounds, Matsudaira Nobutsuna was suddenly startled for some reason and had a very bad premonition.
Hauge, who had been silent beside him, also felt clearly that something was wrong. For the first time, he started to look around, looking for something.
"Report...Laozhong-sama!" Finally, a Japanese man rushed to Matsudaira Nobutsuna and reported in a panic, "The Ming cavalry over there in Busan was attacked by the Ming Dynasty cavalry, and the entire army was wiped out!"
"What?" Matsudaira Nobutsuna believed it and immediately shouted loudly, "Aren't the Ming Cavalry behind us? Where did the Ming Cavalry come from in Busan? How dare you lie about the military situation and shake the morale of the military... …”
Before he finished speaking, he saw Japanese people coming behind him, supporting several Japanese people who were in a terrible state. One of them, Matsudaira Nobutsuna, was acquainted with him. He was the head of Inoue Shigemasa's bodyguard, and his name seemed to be Inoda. When Matsudaira Nobutsuna saw it, he was immediately shocked. Although he understood at this time that the matter must be correct, he still couldn't believe it, and wanted to grab a life-saving straw. He rushed over in a few steps and shouted to the Inoda: "Where is Omatsuke, where is Inoue Shigemasa, he Where?"
Hearing his almost ferocious shout, the exhausted Ida unhooked a package from his waist, knelt down and placed it respectfully, then untied the package to reveal a head.
In fact, Matsudaira Nobutsuna had already expected it when he saw his expression before he untied it, but when he saw the severed head of Inoue Shigemasa, he was immediately stunned.
"Oamasuke committed suicide and martyred his country!" Ida didn't want to tell others that what Inoue Shigemasa regretted before he died was considered as fulfilling his duty as a master and servant.
When the people around saw the head of Inoue Shigemasa and listened to Ida's words, everyone fell silent for a moment, and then suddenly exploded. Just like at the end of the world, many people are crazy and desperate!
At this moment, I heard Matsudaira Nobutsuna say "ah" and fell back without vomiting blood.
This time, Hauge did not help or hug him in time. He just stared at Inoue Shigemasa's head and said nothing.
The attention of Matsudaira Nobutsuna's bodyguard was all attracted by the head of Inoue Shigemasa, and for a while, he didn't notice anything else.
Therefore, when Matsudaira Nobutsuna fell down, he fell onto his back and let out another "ah" sound.
Only then did his personal guards react and hurriedly went to help him, only to find that there was still blood on the back of his head. By coincidence, he happened to hit a rock.
At this time, Matsudaira Nobutsuna was obviously a little confused. After a while, his eyes refocused. Then, he saw the originally unorganized army. They were all in an uproar, talking about the Busan Army being defeated by the Ming Kingdom Cavalry. Give the news that the entire army was wiped out.
