Chapter 82 Bloody Battle of Ulsan (3)

Such a good opportunity yesterday was abruptly given up, just to allow Li Rumei to ascend the city calmly now. If the war goes against her, wouldn't it mean digging a hole for herself to jump into and showing her incompetence?

In desperation, Yang Hao issued several orders in succession.

A group of soldiers who retreated without authorization during the battle were captured and publicly beheaded. Several more soldiers were taken and their left ears were cut off to make an example.

Since it was a coalition, there must be soldiers from the Li Dynasty. In order to ensure that the attack could be effective as soon as possible, Quan Li also followed suit and killed a group of deserters from his country.

Money rewards and death threats both worked at the same time. In the evening, Li Rumei's troops scored three pills, which won Yang Hao's praise.

And this place was actually captured yesterday. At that time, the Japanese army was caught off guard.

now.

After Lu Li completed the assigned goals, he began to sit back and watch, while Xie Sheng and the other northwest generals were even worse, as if they were wandering outside, doing the work they had originally assigned to the southern soldiers.

As for the Southern soldiers... they are guarding the empty river beach.

To be honest, Li Rumei's troops actually fought very fiercely, and even the soldiers of Li Dynasty became brave, and even became brave and fearless of death. They risked their lives to save their lives, which was almost crazy.

A group of Li Chao and Ming army warriors used flying hooks to grab the top of the wall and tried to pull down the Ninomaru wall. However, the Japanese priests had arranged a trick here and had to fail.

But if you miss the opportunity, you miss it. The Japanese army who are on guard are not so easy to deal with.

By now.

Capable people are still sitting on the bench.

During this period, a general was also lost.

After a large part of the southern soldiers, who were already small in strength, were assigned to guard the river, Chen Yin was left alone to lead 500 soldiers.

Considering that Li Rumei's progress was not smooth, he was sent up. Yang Hao felt that with only 500 people, he would not be able to get much credit.

Chen Yin took the lead and was still unaffected by the unfair treatment just like yesterday. However, he rushed too far and was first targeted by Kato Yasumasa himself. They fought for several hundred rounds and then were fired upon by several large cannons.

Fortunately, he survived and was sent back to Seoul by military Taoists overnight to receive better treatment.

late at night.

The battle continues.

Pan Ming, Zhou Tian, ​​Du Quan, and Wei Feng, who represented other actors, approached Lu Li.

Everyone was doing nothing, watching Li Rumei's troops move forward with difficulty, and then they were suddenly repelled by the Japanese army who had the right time and location.

For a whole day, the only victory came from the riverside. Four Japanese warships came from the lower reaches of the Taihe River.

When the Zhejiang soldiers saw it, they immediately mobilized their firearms and fired a fierce bombardment at them, quickly sinking two of them. Seeing that the situation was not good, the other two hurriedly fled back to the ocean outside Ulsan.

Among them, there was also a small leader of the Japanese army who was lucky enough to be alive. He took the initiative to swim in front of the Ming army's formation and expressed his intention to surrender and become a surrender to the Japanese.

When this man was turned to Yang Hao, he had an idea and thought of a good way.

Give gold and silver, wear red and green.

This Japanese surrender enjoyed excellent treatment, and rode a horse constantly wandering around the outside of Daoshan City, shouting that the Ming army treated the prisoners preferentially.

Among the Japanese pirates whose morale was not very good, there were indeed deserters and they decided to surrender to the Ming army. After all, the people of Li Dynasty were at the bottom of the contempt chain.

It was not until Nabeshima Naoshige personally suppressed the Japanese troops that they stopped fleeing.

The whole process was naturally bloody.

"Since leaving Seoul, everything has been going according to history. If things remain unchanged, we can only accept failure and wait for all the support to arrive next year to launch a major general offensive."

Zhou Tian's words were full of hints.

Although Li Rumei was living alone under the arrangement of the envoy, Lu Li, as the flagship figure of the Liaodong Army, was actually quite effective.

"Let's see again, Yang Hao is too selfish, and trying to persuade him right now will have no effect at all." Lu Li was helpless.

In this way, everyone returned to their respective camps and continued to watch Li Rumei perform her operations.

After being entangled by Nabeshima Naoshige, the generals under his command were also stopped one by one by the elite Japanese warriors, fighting against generals and soldiers against soldiers.

It is true that the Japanese were low in morale, but they were not piggies left to be slaughtered. The two sides fought back and forth.

I struggled with it for three whole days and two nights!

The allied forces finally advanced into Ichinomaru and saw the real wall of the Japanese army.

"Get your troops in order and attack with all your strength!"

Yang Jinglue’s original words were as follows.

But there was no such thing as a sudden attack. After fighting for such a long time, we finally saw the city wall. The vigor of many soldiers was almost worn away.

At this time, the Japanese army dropped a letter, saying that it should be handed over to the people in the Ming army who could make the decision.

The person who picked up the letter was a general of the Li Dynasty, the military envoy Cheng Yunwen. He did not dare to hesitate and immediately sent it to the commander's camp.

Admiral Ma Gui, Xie Sheng, Lu Li, and all the actors who were qualified to participate in the discussion, all arrived.

This letter was written in the name of Kato Yasumasa, saying that there were no big figures in the city, only a few of their juniors were guarding the city, and advised the Ming army to bypass Dosan and Ulsan and go directly to Seisaengpo. Qingzhengong was there.

Send envoys to him for peace talks.

Kato Kiyomasa is not here?

Yang Hao didn't believe it, because Jiang Ni, who had once sneaked in and acted as a scout, said that he saw Kato Kiyomasa with his own eyes, wearing a luxurious armor. He couldn't be wrong!

Even if the Japanese army was aware of it and did it deliberately, Nabeshima Naoshige must be here, and many people saw him take action with their own eyes.

Therefore, Yang Hao wrote a reply:

"If Kato Kiyomasa comes to surrender, the whole city will be spared death, and there will be heavy rewards."

Immediately afterwards, the translator Park Dagen and a Japanese surrender named Echigo were sent to return the letter to the city.

When Kato Yasumasa saw it, he couldn't help but feel disappointed. He could only reply with a seemingly tough but helpless reply:

"If you want to fight, then fight. If you want to make peace, then make peace. If you want to allow me to leave the city, and if you send the generals, then we should discuss peace."

In fact, Kato Kiyomasa was not in Shimayama Castle before, he just arrived!!

As for how he broke through the encirclement of the Ming army and entered the city, the civil servant responsible for writing the family history wrote extremely gorgeously:

Wearing a silver helmet, he stood majestically on a canoe holding a naginata, with five hundred elite warriors behind him.

The fleet sailed down the river, easily passed through the Ming army's river defense, and sailed towards Daoshan City amid the blizzard.

The allied forces on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, Ming Dynasty and North Korea were so impressed by Qing Zhenggong's majesty that they did not dare to act rashly. They just stood there and watched him enter Daoshan.

The fact is that the coalition forces lack nothing but artillery. If Kato is dressed like that, he obviously wants to be a target.

And Kiyoshi Kato is a strong general, not an idiot.

If he really dares to be so arrogant and high-profile, he will receive a special welcome ceremony tomorrow morning - a salvo of thousands of artillery fire, and he will either be blown up on the river or be targeted by Lu Li.

He just sneaked into the city with the help of blizzards and secret techniques, but regardless of whether he was majestic or embarrassed, Kato finally came over. Although he suffered a defeat, he was still able to stabilize the morale of the army.

Kato, Nabeshima.

The backbone of both families was strong, and Anmasa, the younger member of the Kato family, took the initiative to request a counterattack against the Ming army at night to build up his prestige.

Li Rumei was used to attacking. She didn't expect that the Japanese army who wanted to surrender would take the initiative to launch a night attack, but they were driven back to Ninomaru.
