The navy that rushed to North Korea this time was led by the deputy commander-in-chief of Nan'ao Town, the famous general Chen Lin, and the veteran Deng Zilong was the deputy commander. The original deployment plan was to have only 5,000 men. However, the enemy came with a fierce force, and the results won in the previous few years were almost ruined.
As a result, a large number of reinforcements were added, and the reinforcements increased to 20,000.
This small amount of troops does seem to be a bit small for Japan, which is reinforced by hundreds of thousands of troops. However, there are also navies from other places arriving, as well as part of the supporting army, plus the Jianzhou Jurchen strength of 10,000 troops.
...For the Jianzhou Guards under the leadership of Shuerhaqi, this is already a battle force that consumes a lot of money.
At this time, Jianzhou's military strength was not particularly large. The number of combat-ready soldiers was close to 10,000, and the actual elites were only a few thousand. After all, Nurhaci did not have 20,000 armored men and 60,000 combat-ready men until more than ten years later.
.
However, for the Jurchens, in winter fighting, all the people can be soldiers. The number of soldiers depends on the number of men of the right age, so ten thousand people can still get them, but most of them are cannon fodder. However, there are not so many elite soldiers in this era, and cannon fodder is also
In terms of combat power, they can actually use weapons to kill people, and they are not the atmosphere group in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms who just stand behind and yell at the generals.
At this time, Shuerhaqi was indeed holding the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. After all, it was his first time to command such a large-scale legion. In the past, it was his eldest brother who commanded it. This time, it was to show his loyalty and prevent being plowed.
.
Of course, both the Ming Navy and the Jianzhou Guard habitually exaggerated the number of people participating in the battle. The navy were all veteran actors. A hundred thousand people were just a handful.
Jianzhou Wei claimed that he had mobilized 30,000 combat-ready troops.
There is also the army of the Ming Dynasty, headed by the famous "Liu Sandao" Liu Wei, who mobilized 20,000 troops, and also announced an army of 100,000 to the outside world.
After hearing this, Shuerhaqi said that with one hundred thousand on land, one hundred thousand on water, and a few more, the total force dispatched for this battle could be claimed to be millions. Although others said this was an outrageous operation, Toyotomi Hideyoshi
It’s not like a fool would believe it, but Shuerhaqi himself has some unique insights.
After all, the bullshit has been blown out anyway, so it doesn't matter if you blow it a little louder. The other side doesn't know its own military strength anyway, so it can confuse you.
It has to be said that this trick was originally used by the wise General Yang Hao to deceive the Jurchens in history. He told Nurhaci that 300,000 troops were stationed in Sarhu, which really scared Nurhaci so much that he did not dare to move for a while.
And the wise Yang Hao is now commanding a large number of Ming Dynasty troops in North Korea, and is being used as a game boss by the Japanese for crazy leveling.
It was originally expected to carry out landing support on the coast of Jeolla Province, but unexpectedly, in the North Korean mainland, all Daokou mountain towns were defeated like mountains, and most of the recovered areas had fallen.
Standing in front of the warship, you can see three intertwined clouds over North Korea, purple, red, yellow, and white. The weakest white cloud is the destiny of North Korea.
Purple represents the imperial power of the Ming Dynasty. Because there is the Ziwei Palace in the sky and the Forbidden City on the ground, this color also contains bursts of crimson. This is the color advocated by the Ming Dynasty, which is vermilion.
The yellow color is because Japan advocated gold during this period. Toyotomi Hideyoshi made gold utensils for the Japanese Emperor to represent the pursuit of wealth and power.
As for white, it is a color that has been advocated by ancient Korea since ancient times. This habit has been maintained until later generations, so much so that China pastes red Spring Festival couplets and North Korea pastes white Spring Festival couplets. It does not look like a festival but a funeral.
"Today's Qi, yellow is fierce, white is weak, and purple is losing ground."
The King of Wudang Mountain, Old Sword Immortal, looked at the cloud in the distance. Several other Wudang monks also felt that the situation was serious. Logically speaking, they had just announced great victories not long ago, and even when the two "Wolong and Phoenix" privately signed an armistice agreement with the bosses of both sides.
, Japan’s occupied areas in Korea only include the eastern and southern coastal areas.
But now, even the western coast, which were originally "recovery areas", has been reoccupied. This shows that the story of "fake immortals" appearing in the opponent's camp may be true.
"Don't worry, every time the fake immortals take action, they will be one step closer to the destruction of body and spirit. They will not take action until the critical moment. After all, the opportunity to take action is very precious. If the fight lasts too long, you will
There will be major damage."
"According to some information I have learned, there seem to be a lot of fake immortals in this world, but they are all old antiques. The chance of taking action can only be kept once or twice. There is nothing to be afraid of such things. Unfortunately, we don't have them here.
A pure Yang realm master, otherwise we can just use various magic weapons to fight a war of attrition with him."
Ji Xiang stood on the bow of the ship. Above his head, the disaster of the mortal world became even greater.
Helping Li Jianyuan to deduce the immortal scriptures and create new disasters in the world of mortals means that this time in North Korea will encounter a catastrophe. Perhaps the very fact of coming to North Korea is a sign of disaster.
But just before he was about to take the second-turn elixir, he received the order to be mobilized. This in itself was a manifestation of bad luck. Taking the second-turn elixir requires regular refining for a long time and every seven days, which does not give him the chance to become an immortal.
And setting foot on this land means...
"Somewhere, an immortal-level master will appear here."
At the Immortal level, people are calculated mentally but not intentionally. Chen Taichu is also an Immortal. If he is plotted by himself to be banished to immortal, there is nothing to be afraid of. But if he is not successfully plotted by himself, he will be finished.
After all, I am not a real immortal. As the saying goes, if you want to defeat a master, you must bring his level to the same level as you, and then use your rich experience and outrageous operations to defeat him.
"General Chen, where will we land from?"
Ji Xiang looked at the coast in the distance. There was a mountain city that caught his eye. There were many mountains in North Korea and not many plains. You could see the shadows of the mountains in the distance, appearing and disappearing behind the waves and sea fog.
"The national power of the Three Kingdoms is intertwined. It was originally expected to be in Jeolla Province, but Jeolla Province fell too quickly, and then transferred to Gyeonggi Province, that is, Suwon Port near Wanggyeong, but now Suwon Port has also fallen into the hands of the enemy...
"
When Chen Lin said this, she also secretly scolded Yang Hao for being such a noob. He was really just hitting randomly without any operation at all.
Yang Hao has done this kind of honey operation not once or twice, but there is one thing that Li Rusong cannot compare with him, that is, the Ming army under the leadership of Yang Hao has much stricter military discipline than Li Rusong, which makes the reputation of the Ming army become worse.
Well...it's useless!
Chen Lin thought, if you win the battle, nothing can be said. If you lose the battle, so what if you are just a good person. The North Korean people think of you well and will build a shrine for you later. So what, they will run if they should.
I won't give you any effort, and you should go to jail.
For a warrior, winning is more important than anything else. If you lose, you will have nothing. Military discipline, rewards for merit and punishment for mistakes, is enough.
And speaking of it, Li Rusong conquered most of the areas in the beginning. Yang Hao conquered very few areas, basically just destroying them with explosives. Moreover, unlike Li Rusong, he liked to divide the north and the south and worked hard to attack cities.
All the work is done by the Southern Qi Army, and the dividends are paid by the Northern Army. Who will fight for him? I am afraid that the Southern Army will share the credit for his strict military discipline!
Ji Xiang looked at the map and pointed out: "Isn't this port south of Huanghaidao very good? It's close to Linshan Mountain in the north, and it can firmly control the western coast. At any time, it can go south to attack Gyeonggi Province and contain Wang Jing. Why not here?
Log in?"
Chen Lin explained carefully: "The back is indeed close to Linshan in the north, and there is a sea route to connect with the army. But if, if we attack this place, the army loses the city again, and this place will become an isolated city."
"If we land from here and Japan attacks the North Yellow Sea Road, seizes Gushan, and goes straight to Xiangyuan and Nanpu, our army's retreat will be cut off."
Ji Xiang: "You don't have to be so cautious. Since I'm here, just go ahead and attack."
"This Haizhou City is a dangerous place, it has the throat of the sea, how can we not take it? Everyone, stay here, I will come back when I go, I just teach them a few things!"
"Then, what kind of big shots will be stationed in such a dangerous place?"
The opening blow kills the general directly!
.......
At the top of Haizhou City, the Japanese army saw countless warships appearing on the sea in the distance, as well as Fengbo Water Demon, Dragon Dragon and Sea Horse grazing the warships. They were immediately alarmed and climbed up to the top of the city to blow the war siren.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
A large number of ashigaru infantry have been added to their positions, and the samurai have drawn out their sharp swords. Kaishu City is now built like a bunker by the Japanese army. For the Japanese army, these large cities rebuilt in Korea are not as good as the original ones.
On some basis, it was divided into outer city, inner city, and mountain city. Due to the war experience in the Warring States Period, the Japanese army was far superior to the Koreans in terms of technology and work speed in building the "triple city".
A thundercloud rose from the warship in the distance. These warriors immediately became nervous. Some people kept shouting loudly:
"Iron artillery team, iron artillery team is coming to the city, there are monks!"
Rows of soldiers holding blunderbuss climbed to the top of the city, kneeling on one knee and leaning on the city wall, aiming at the approaching thundercloud!
Ji Xiang emerged from the thundercloud and saw the firearms, and above the Haizhou City, Japan's national power surged, condensing into the shape of a big snake, neighing incessantly, revealing its fierce look.
The power of immortality came, and countless demons and monsters appeared outside Haizhou City, jumping out from the mountains, roads, and sea water!
"Xu Fu's power has reached here, and there are still people who hold divine status in the city."
Ji Xiang was staring at them, but among the warriors, the most gorgeously dressed man did not move, and was also staring at Ji Xiang.
A group of warriors surrounded this man, and several of them seemed eager to try. Soon, a general seemed to have obtained the permission of the gorgeous general, and climbed to the top of the city. A strong wind rose under his feet, and suddenly he came from the sky!
And shouting titles such as "Thirty-Six Warriors in the World"!
"I, Sun Bingwei of Guitian, meet Yanshanjin! I will not kill the nameless one with the sword..."
The long knife is still waving in the sky, but Ji Xiang has already taken out the rotating gun!
Rumble, rumble, rumble——!
The blood is rising and the clouds and fog are rising!
"you....!"
Takada Sonhei looked at the eight thick bullet holes in his body in disbelief. The protective national authority on his body was just broken through, and the opponent was not even willing to fight with him at close range!
"How can you be called a master if you don't know how to use a gun?"
Ji Xiang watched his body fall into the sea with disgust: "I'm sorry, you just said, what is your name?"
