The Age of Lords Reborn

Chapter 503 Continuing to set up (for subscription)

In the first month of the 21st year of Wanli, the situation of the First World War in Korea changed dramatically in an instant.

Following the annihilation of Xiao Nishixing's commander, the Second Army, whose supply line was completely cut off, hurried south, but was ambushed again in the upper reaches of the Datong River.

Kato Kiyomasa died, and the entire Second Army had less than 1000 people fleeing the battlefield in embarrassment.

Less than five days later, the news that Kato Yoshiaki, who was also from the Kato family, died in the Korean Strait was sent back to North Korea, and Yasuji Wakisaka was also killed in the battle with him.

Kato Yoshiaki died in a sea charge, while Wakisaka Yasuji was surrounded and suppressed by the Ming Navy from the other side.

In a naval battle, the Japanese lost a total of 27 transport ships and 34 warships.Coupled with the losses in previous confrontations with the North Korean Navy, the number of Japanese ships has dropped by more than a hundred.

During this period, as a group of Ming cavalry attacked everywhere, all the Korean cities belonging to the Yellow Sea and Gangwon Second Provinces, including Kaesong, Cheorwon Fortress, Anbyon Fortress, and Chuncheon Fortress, were all recovered by the Ming army.

So far north of the Han River, only Seoul is still in the hands of the Japanese.

"Master Shen, you Daming clearly don't have the slightest attitude to negotiate peace!"

"You have to explain to us why the Ming army is still actively attacking us while sending you to negotiate a peace."

Seoul, the front hall of the post office.

As a general of the Ninth Army, Hidekatsu Hashiba rushed in angrily, and directly slapped the table on Shen Weijing: "Don't forget, you are still here with us, if the admiral of Ming Dynasty doesn't care about your life, I can kill you for him." You, a fake envoy who has no peace and sincerity."

"Fake envoy?"

Shen Weijing sneered when he heard the words, and swung his cuff with his right hand: "I am recommended by the Minister of the Ministry of War of the Ming Dynasty, and supported by the admiral, how dare you say that I am a fake?"

"Your official position is real, but your coming to negotiate peace is fake, fake!" Hashiba Hidekatsu repeated the last word angrily, and even clenched his hands to his waist saber.

"Do you doubt my sincerity in negotiating peace?"

Shen Weijing's face turned cold when he heard the words: "I also want to ask the general of your country, when will we find out who the Japanese who attacked our mission are. At first, they poisoned them, and they came to assassinate them if they failed. Have you ever been protected? Let me tell you, we can live not because of how friendly you Wa people are, but because our lives are hard enough."

"The mission has been repeatedly attacked in Seoul. This incident has already made the admiral lose his patience. He dispatched cavalry and navy troops, just to warn you. If you don't show your sincerity in negotiating peace, I will leave Seoul. At that time, your [-] troops will all Die in North Korea, no one can leave!"

Through the information transmission from Liu Ye, Shen Weijing already knew how many major events happened during this period.

Daming's two-pronged approach defeated the Japanese.The sea transportation channels are not guaranteed, and the Japanese in Seoul can only hide in the city.

As for going out of the city, the Japanese soldiers without horses were not opponents at all in the face of the threat of Jianzhou iron cavalry and three-eyed guns.

This point, the wars that have taken place in the past few days have already explained everything.Even if the Japanese found the right place to ambush, they could only be defeated in the end.

Of course, during this period of time, the war in Huanghai Road did not completely fall to Ming's side.

Although Jianzhou Qi completed the task assigned by Mo Xiaobai, he was ambushed several times and also suffered a lot of damage, among which nearly half of them were killed or injured.This is also the reason why Yu Chai Xiusheng dared to question Shen Weijing, he immediately snorted: "If you want to keep us all, you Daming soldiers and horses will also be buried with us."

"Let's wait and see."

Shen Weijing was too lazy to continue talking nonsense, so he walked away after finishing speaking.Hashiba Hidekatsu also left angrily, with a cloudy expression on his face, in fact, he was even more worried that the army would abandon the peace talks.

Although Daming Yi and the mission are in the city, life or death is up to him, but even if these hundreds of people are killed, it will not make Daming lose much strength, but will make Seoul fall into the crazy attack of the Daming army.

Damn the peace mission, the damn Ming army.

If you hadn't disrupted the situation, North Korea would have been defeated long ago.

"The humble Nurhachi, see the admiral."

After going out for dozens of days and capturing every city, Nurhachi and Li Rusong finally returned to Pyongyang with their soldiers and horses in early February.

Nurhachi was not qualified to show off, even though he was upset at the loss of four or five thousand soldiers, he still had to bow down and salute honestly.

Li Rusong next to him looked proud, standing there straight as if he didn't see Mo Xiaobai.

"It's been a lot of running around, both of you have worked hard."

Mo Xiaobai squinted his eyes and raised his hand to signal Nurhachi to stand up, and then said: "You did a good job dispatching troops this time. Seoul is now a lone army in the north. We are a big step closer to winning."

"It's the adults who are strategizing, and we can get the military exploits."

Nurhachi was still respectful, but after he finished speaking, he said: "General Li owes most of the credit to being able to successfully conquer more than a dozen cities. I also hope that the admiral can ignore the past. I am willing to continue to fight with General Li."

"The credit goes to General Li?"

Mo Xiaobai rubbed his chin, and said with a smile: "You are the one who contributed, and you are the one who lost the soldiers and horses. You still ask for credit for him? Li Rusong, Li Rusong, your father's adopted son is really not in vain."

"Okay, let's assume that what you Nurhachi said is right, but I heard that more than half of your soldiers and horses have been damaged, and it is no longer suitable for fighting, so I decided to transfer you back to Yizhou and continue to help me monitor North Korea."

When Mo Xiaobai said his plan, Nurhachi was obviously a little bit astonished, but Li Rusong took a quick step forward: "You villain, you actually backtracked!"

"Contradictory? Li Rusong, what are you talking about?"

"I said that you are a villain. You clearly said that as long as I can make meritorious service, I will be allowed to fight independently. Now you want to transfer me back to Yizhou. Isn't it a promise or something?"

Li Rusong didn't like to see Mo Xiaobai very much at first, and this time he would scold him even more nakedly: "You despicable person, didn't you transfer me away just because you saw that a certain person could take over the city and make meritorious service? We have seen many years!"

One despicable and despicable mouthful, which made Mo Xiaobai, who was in a good mood, also frown: "Li Rusong, you'd better see who you're talking to. I've made it very clear just now, your soldiers and horses are too damaged. , You can no longer go out of the camp to participate in the war at will."

"I will make up for the loss of soldiers and horses, so you don't have to worry about it!"

"You add?" Mo Xiaobai smiled, and looked at Nurhachi at the same time, with a few jokes clearly flashing in his eyes.

Li Rusong didn't care about this, he also turned his head and said: "Anu, send someone to Jianzhou Wei and transfer [-] cavalry to serve with the army."

Also transfer troops from me?

Another ten thousand rides?

When Nurhachi heard this, his old blood gushed out.

Lao Tzu's soldiers are not soldiers?
Do you have to let you down to be reconciled?
There seemed to be 1000 million unwillingness in his heart, but Nurhachi knew that he had already been tied to the Li family's chariot, and he had to help the Li family unconditionally.

If you don't help, once the Li family becomes weak too early, you will be the one who will be unlucky next.

"Don't worry, Da Lang, and the admiral, don't worry. I can afford [-] cavalry from the Jianzhou Guard. I guarantee that they are all elite troops who can recruit and fight well, enough to deal with the Japanese."

After Nurhachi finished speaking, Mo Xiaobai pretended to hesitate for a moment, and then said: "Well, you go to deploy troops now, I want to see [-] new cavalry go south within [-] days."
