Just when Zeng Yi and the others rushed to Seoul, the island country finally launched an attack. The island country's advance navy force discovered by the pro-military Duwei Mansion surprisingly attacked the North Korean navy, and the last bit of the navy's strength was lost. The North Korean navy was originally
It is very weak. In the last war, although luck was overwhelming and the island nation's navy was defeated, its own navy also suffered heavy losses. North Korea does not have as strong a shipbuilding capability as the island nation, and it has only restored a small navy force so far.
But even this small navy was wiped out by the island country's advance navy. This actually had to be done by North Korea itself. The intelligence capabilities were too weak. Even the pro-military captain's office discovered the actions of the island country's advance navy.
They didn't notice it themselves. It wasn't until the warship parked in the port was sunk by the island nation's navy that they realized that the island nation had taken action!
North Korea also made preparations and launched its only fleet of naval forces at the port of Busan, the southern gateway to the Korean Peninsula. Busan is across the sea from the island nation of Tsushima; it faces the Nakdong River to the west. Mountains stand in the northwest.
There is an archipelago barrier in the south, the gateway to the southern part of the peninsula. Such a superior geographical location plays into the hands of the island country. Without telling North Korea, the island country hid its advance navy troops near Tsushima Island. Taking advantage of the night when the North Koreans were lax in their defenses, the island country
Taking action directly, North Korea's navy was sunk in the port without even being able to go to sea!
Fortunately, the only good news is that this island country's navy did not bring much land. After sinking the North Korean navy fleet, it did not log in. The news that the navy was completely annihilated was quickly spread back to Seoul, and Seoul's people instantly changed.
Panic.
"Next step, Toyotomi Hideyoshi will probably send a large-scale army to log in. If at this time, the Central Plains can send out the main navy fleet to intercept the island country's navy, Toyotomi Hideyoshi's elite troops will probably be buried in the sea." Old
After Si heard the news, he couldn't help but said.
"The Central Plains Navy is taking action? The imperial court does have the strength, but it doesn't have the money! The money spent on such a large-scale naval battle can be described as huge. You are definitely like the stingy Central Plains imperial court. Will you spend this money?"
"
"Then you say that if North Korea requests to send troops, will the court allow the navy to set off?" Lao San asked at the side.
Zeng Yi shook his head, "Most likely not. Let's put it this way, unless North Korea pays for all the military expenditures, the imperial court will never use the navy! And with North Korea's background, it would be good if it can gather the military expenditures needed by the army.
, don’t even think about the navy!"
"Then, North Korea is finished. It is estimated that half of the country will be lost before the Central Plains intervene."
As expected by Zeng Yi and others, after Toyotomi Hideyoshi sent the advance navy to destroy the North Korean navy, the pro-military captain's office detected the intelligence. The main force of the island country's navy, protecting hundreds of large transport ships, had already been removed from the Korean navy.
Depart from the island country!
The North Koreans were not stupid. They knew that the island country should log in to fight next, so they immediately sent additional troops to Busan. The number of Busan defenders once reached 100,000, which was already a large part of North Korea's army.
Knowing that North Korea intends to defend Pusan, Zeng Yi and others were speechless, "The Pusan navy was completely wiped out, and there was no way to deal with the island nation's fleet. The island nation's initial investment of troops definitely exceeded 100,000. Under the cover of the fleet's powerful firepower, Busan could not even deal with it."
I can't defend it. Don't any Koreans have anyone who understands military matters?"
"Haha, in such a mediocre and unscrupulous court, the people who can get to the top are those who know how to flatter others, or they are the second generation masters from big families. How much do you think those of them who have never been on the battlefield know? And those who are capable
People have no right to speak at all." Zeng Yi shook his head and said.
"How about it? Do you want to remind the King of North Korea?" Lao Si looked at Zeng Yi and said.
Zeng Yi pondered for a moment and shook his head, "No, it's useless to remind them. It's time to let North Korea suffer. Otherwise, they don't know when they will ask for help from the Central Plains."
Just as Zeng Yi and the others had guessed, the island nation's naval force, protecting a hundred thousand elite land forces, directly landed in Busan. The North Koreans tried their best and even burned down the Busan Port, but they could not prevent the island nation from landing. They could only watch helplessly.
After the islanders logged in, the North Korean soldiers had no choice but to withdraw to Busan City, hoping to rely on the walls of Busan City to block the island army.
However, Busan City was too close to the coast and there was no naval protection. The island nation's fleet marched straight in and sailed directly into the Busan Port. With the powerful firepower of the ship, it frantically attacked Busan City. Before the island nation's army could attack, the North Korean army had already suffered heavy losses.
.
When the news came back to Seoul that day, the North Korean court was shocked, but they couldn't come up with any good solutions. They could only order the frontline troops to stop the islanders at all costs. The North Korean frontline troops had to work hard, but in the face of absolute strength
, courage seems not so important. In just two days, under the powerful offensive of the island country, the 100,000 troops of the Busan defenders have been killed in battle. More than 30,000 people were killed, one-third of the casualties, and the defenders were close to collapse.
At this time, the North Korean court and the Central Plains understood that it was impossible to stop the islanders with Busan. Now they could only stop the islanders by conserving their strength and blocking the enemy layer by layer.
When the order to retreat was sent to the front line, the North Korean court obviously overestimated its own army. Before receiving the order, the army had some discipline and was still desperately resisting the islanders' offensive. After receiving the order to retreat, the North Korean army directly evolved into
After a huge rout, the army had no discipline at all and wanted to run away quickly. Even the troops at the rear dropped their defenses and ran away. The Japanese army occupied Busan Castle very easily. If it hadn't been for the first batch
The island nation's army that landed did not have much cavalry and could not pursue the defeated North Korean army. It was estimated that a large part of the North Korean army would have to die in battle before they could escape.
Busan City was occupied, and the South Gate of North Korea was wide open. North Korea had long lost its navy. The island country was not worried about being attacked by the navy. It could land unscrupulously. On the day it occupied Busan, a large number of supplies had been sent to the island country.
Transported to Busan.
"The southern gate has been opened, and South Korea has flooded the river. It is estimated that within a month, the islanders will be able to attack Seoul!"
Zeng Yi smiled and said, "Just wait. If Seoul is taken, North Korea will probably ask for help from the Central Plains!"
The fourth child nodded, "By the way, who is the leading general of the island country? Has the pro-military captain's office found out through investigation?"
"The investigation has revealed that Hideie Ukita, one of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's five bosses." The five bosses are the ministers that Toyotomi Hideyoshi prepared to give him his successor. They are the most trusted and capable of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's subordinates.
Among the five strongest people, Ukita Hide is one of them. You can imagine how powerful this guy is. (To be continued)
