As soon as the navy arrives, all the troops used for the decisive battle are gathered together, and they can fight a battle that is far superior to the past:

In just a few months, the total strength of the Ming army in the DPRK surged to 142,700, an unprecedented military strength!

And there are many soldiers and generals!

The former is a great thing, but the latter is a bit troublesome. With so many general soldiers, deputy general soldiers, and guerrillas from all over the world, it is undoubtedly a troublesome thing to manage.

Dong Yiyuan was a veteran, and his status was no lower than that of Ma Gui. Liu Wei, the broadsword general who came from Bashu, also had the title of admiral on his head.

According to the initial plan of the imperial court, Chen Li was also planned to be given the title of admiral. However, after considering that Lu Li, who was parachuted into the navy, would be the leader, he was not promoted and he remained the deputy commander-in-chief.

"The expedition is about to begin. If you don't understand your superiority and inferiority, something will happen sooner or later."

Within the camp.

Yang Hao looked around, as if he wanted to see who had objections to this, but at this juncture, no one was so stupid as to object in public.

After all, the manager has passed two levels in a row, showing a huge background.

"very good."

As Li Rumei returned to China to take over his brother's position, Yang Hao put away all his little thoughts and began to devote himself to the decisive battle.

If he makes another mistake and is punished for several crimes, not to mention the two cabinet ministers, even if the entire cabinet speaks for him, he will not be able to escape death.

Camp corner.

Wei Feng, Zhou Tian and others looked at Lu Li in front of him with a little envy.

After all, his position as Commander-in-Chief is a unique one, and now, although he has not been awarded the position of Admiral, he has the actual status of an Admiral.

Pan Ming put all his thoughts into consideration. With Lu Li being transferred to the navy, he would not be able to get much help in the future and would have to find a way to kill someone of Nabeshima Naoshige's level.

Only in this way is it safe...

For a time, everyone had different thoughts.

As for the subtle adjustments to the command system, it is not that complicated. Xing Jie coordinates the overall situation, Yang Hao arranges the strategy, and the following front-line commands are divided into:

There are three war zones: Ma Gui, Dong Yiyuan and Liu Wei.

In addition, every admiral is accompanied by supervisors.

This is completely understandable. Yang Hao fought a bad battle at Daoshan, and his defeat was so bizarre that Emperor Wanli became suspicious——

Wouldn't it be possible for so many generals to collude and lie about their military situation?

Therefore, the duties of the military supervisors are very simple, which is to investigate merits and crimes, and the admiral has to discuss small strategies and tactics with them.

"Do you all understand your respective tasks?"

Xing Jie opened his mouth.

All the generals nodded.

Now that the war zones have been divided, the battle plan must have been formulated.

It is not too different from history, because there is only one optimal solution.

In this strategic plan, the Ming army will be divided into four groups, with three army groups attacking Suncheon, Sacheon and Ulsan respectively, and one group of naval forces sweeping the sea areas along the way.

Use the power of thunder to quickly destroy the Japanese defense line, making it impossible for them to look at each other from head to tail.

Frankly speaking, the previous addition of Li Rumei's troops failed to change the Ming army's predicament of being outnumbered in the Korean battlefield. Now that it was finally able to outnumber the outnumbered, it was bound to be a sigh of relief.

Because of this, the last and largest battle to resist Japan and aid Korea officially began.

There are no rituals to worship heaven.

First, after being slapped in the face last time, Xing Jie and Yang Hao were too embarrassed to do it again.

Second, the coalition already has an absolute advantage in terms of strength, so there is no need to pay attention to such frivolous matters.

Magui's right army, with a total of 33,000 men, most of the actors among them, attacked Ulsan again;

The Western Route Army of Da Dao Liu Wei has a strength of 25,000 and aims at Shuntian;

Dong Yiyuan's Middle Route Army, with a total strength of 39,000 men, mainly attacked Sichuan.

Including the more than 10,000 naval troops under Lu Li's command, the Ming army dispatched nearly 110,000 land and water troops for this attack.

The remaining 30,000 elite troops are stationed at the Seoul base camp and will be mobilized according to the situation.

In fact, this mobilization figure is fully worthy of the high-level plan of “four-pronged progress”.

Moreover, this does not include the elite Li Dynasty soldiers who served as auxiliaries and cannon fodder. Although their overall combat effectiveness was not as good as that of the Ming army, their numbers were there. Some generals and their troops had also performed brilliantly.

According to the "outdated" intelligence that was spied in advance, Sichuan was the center of the Japanese defense line, and they recruited a large number of slaves and gathered them here.

Therefore, this place is dotted with dozens of camps and is tightly defended. It is estimated that there are people who are a headache for the Ming army.——

Maybe Toyotomi Hideyoshi is here.

Therefore, Yang Hao paid special attention to this route and arranged the Central Route Army with the largest number of troops here, not only to catch big fish, but also to support the east and west routes at any time.

Waterways are even more straightforward:

With the cooperation of Yi Sun-shin, he swept across the sea areas of Jeolla and Gyeongsang.

After all, the discussion at this gathering is a central theme——

Use the crowd to bully the few, and Mount Tai will crush you!

On the third day after the meeting ended, all units broke out of camp in an orderly manner and embarked on their respective attack routes with confidence.

The formations were very impressive and aggressive, and they wanted to eat up all the Japanese troops from three directions.

During this period, Lu Li heard an episode:

quarrel.

Obviously, during the discussion in the big tent, everyone was in harmony and acted as if they were working together to defeat the Japanese.

However……

The three admirals were red-faced over one man: the most capable army general in the Li Dynasty, Marshal Quan Li.

After all, every road can be supported by Li Chao's troops, but the support must be strong or weak. Quan Li's tribe is the best, and with its help, both the chance of winning and the battle achievements can be improved.

In the end, it was the host, King Li Huo of North Korea, who came forward to make the decision and assigned it to Liu Wei.

There is no doubt that this is a biased approach.

You know, among the three coaches, Li Huo and Ma Gui have a normal relationship, while Dong Yiyuan has never interacted with him before, only Liu Wei...

During the Imjin Japanese Rebellion, he did not go to the front line to fight any major battles. He could only be more active in the rear, such as:

He openly and secretly mocked Li Rusong for his timidity.

In this way, he gained a good impression from the monarchs and ministers of the Li Dynasty who were anxious to recover their lost territory.

It's not difficult to understand why Li Hela is going sideways now. Lu Li doesn't really care anyway, he's just worried about two things.

1. How many troops did Old Monkey Hideyoshi recruit from the country? At this point, if he did not retreat, he must have something to rely on, and the war potential of the Japanese country had not yet been completely exhausted.

Second, will the three admirals on land blame each other?

Even though they are all very motivated now, in the original history, they still hesitated after encountering tough battles.

The West Route Army is the weakest link among the three routes, and the main force is the Sichuan Army. They are all saved by Liu Wei himself, unlike Dong Yiyuan, the powerful Central Route Army.

All the soldiers under the old general's command were wiped out, and he didn't feel bad at all, because they were all mixed troops, and the soldiers came from all over the world.

Out of this mentality, Liu Wei wrote to Dong Yiyuan, asking him to quickly apply pressure in the middle and not to face the enemy on both sides.

A series of chain reactions resulted in an embarrassing situation:

They promised to conquer mountains and rivers with anger, but when they arrived at the scheduled preparation area, they didn't trust the other side, fearing that the "good brothers" would put the enemies that should be dealt with by the other side on their side.

Right now:

Ma Gui stood still on the east road, watching the progress of the middle road; Dong Yiyuan was on the middle road, watching the progress of the west road; Liu Wei was on the west road, waiting for a breakthrough in the middle road.

An infinite loop is formed.

"Forget it, there must be external factors that caused them to start moving again."

On top of the mountain, Lu Li looked back. He was in a very bad condition. He was assigned to go to the sea and lead the way alone. There was no need to worry about what he shouldn't have.

The overall battle situation depends on Yang Hao and Xing Jie.

evening.

The navy, which had planned to depart in the afternoon, temporarily decided to stay for another three days to receive the warm hospitality from Li Huan.

Chen Li, Deng Zilong, Wu Guang, Liang Tianyin, Li Tianchang and other Ming Dynasty naval generals are all new here. As the host, we must win over them and test their fighting spirit.

In addition, although Lu Li did not have the title of admiral, he had the actual status of admiral. Therefore, Li Huo must have wanted to measure the peninsula's physical resources and please him.

One thing to say, if one were to review the generals who had aided the DPRK over the years, and one person whom Li Hao admired, was grateful for, and admired the most, it would undoubtedly be Lu Li.

[If a thief comes, it’s just a decisive battle]

Li Chao's civil and military officials have not forgotten what Lu Li said when he went to conquer Nanyuan, and sometimes they still echo in his ears.
