Go back to the Ming Dynasty to be a thousand households

Chapter 219 Bloody Battle at the Bishou Museum (1)

Surrounded by densely packed family emblems and flags of the Japanese army, as far as the eye can see, they are full of Japanese spears, bows and arrows, and iron cannons.I'm afraid there are tens of thousands of people.

Zha Dashou smiled bitterly and said, "Old Ancestor, it seems that we chased too fast, and chased into the ambush circle of these Japanese."

Zu Chengxun said nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of? Just relying on the combat power of these Japanese people, they also want to surround us? The more they come, the better. We just want to kill them to our heart's content!"

Zha Dashou pointed at Zu Chengxun and laughed loudly: "Okay, Patriarch, today we will fight side by side and kill him with great joy. The man wrapped in horse leather is also worthy of death!"

Li Ning said calmly: "Two generals, the Japanese have already surrounded us. We can only put them to death and survive. Let the soldiers defend quickly!"

Zha Dashou nodded, and he was the leader of the three. With the return of the first team of scouts, he had basically found out the situation of the Japanese army. , and there are still some remaining Japanese corps, the number of which may not be less than [-].

Since there were Japanese troops on all sides, and the dangerous terrain on all sides was occupied by the Japanese troops, Zha Dashou and Zu Chengxun ordered the Ming army cavalry to tightly surround the Tuoforang machine artillery chariots in a small flat river under Bichiguan Mountain. In the circle, everyone relied on artillery chariots as fortifications to fight to the death.The Frangji artillery chariot was surrounded by about 2000 Ming troops. In addition, there were more than a thousand Ming cavalry on both sides of the inner encircled central army for the rest of the attack.

The defense of Pingchuan, although the Japanese army is conducive to attacking, but also, because of the broad vision, the Ming army can also use artillery to inflict a lot of damage on the Japanese army.Of course, in Daming, with such a dense defensive formation, it would be a disaster if the opponent had artillery.However, Zha Da was bullied that the Japanese army did not have artillery, so he was not worried.

On the Bishou Pavilion, the view here is wide, and they can see every move of the Ming army.Seeing the Ming army defending, Kobayakawa Takakage and the others sneered, "Even if they defend like gold, can they still escape with their lives today?"

President Xiaoxi also said with a smile: "Everything is under your control!"

Only Kuroda Nagamasa sneered slightly.

Kobayakawa Takakage pointed his military fan in his hand and shouted, "Attack!"

Immediately, the flag bearers beside him passed on his order, and the Japanese flag bearers of the various teams down the mountain saw the signal on the mountain, and they also passed on the command of the general.

Immediately, the Japanese troops surrounded everywhere let out terrifying howls, and rushed towards the Ming army's position frantically waving their weapons.It was still the same, with the samurai troops as the main combat vanguard, followed by a dense forest of spears and light roads, followed by iron cannons and most of the Japanese army, rushing in from all sides.

Zha Dashou saw the Japanese soldiers rushing up from all around, howling, he drew out his sword and shouted loudly: "Grandma's bear, fight with these Japanese!"

"Fight, fight!" The three thousand Ming soldiers also drew out their weapons and shouted loudly, their voices suppressed the voices of the howling Japanese assault troops from a distance.

"Onboard!"

Among the encircled Japanese troops from all walks of life, those Japanese warriors rushing to the front screamed, holding their sharp samurai swords high in both hands, and rushed fiercely towards the Ming army.

"fire!"

Seeing that the majority of the Japanese army had rushed into range, the Ming Army's Central Military Headquarters issued an order, and immediately the Frang machine guns on the outermost sides opened fire one after another.

These Frang machine artillery tanks are different from the heavy Fran machine gun tanks under the city of Pyongyang.

The Japanese army had no cavalry (there was none), and they charged slowly, allowing the Ming artillerymen to fully aim.Speaking of which, the narrow terrain of the area of ​​Bichi Hall was not conducive to the actions of the cavalry of the Ming army, but it was also not conducive to the charge of the Japanese army.

Their formation is very dense.The shells were shot out and crashed into the charging Japanese army. Immediately there was a scream, and bloody stumps and mud flew up.Every cannon fired by the Ming army caused heavy casualties to the Japanese army.And the ones rushing to the front are all Japanese warriors, the best of the best of the Japanese army.The injuries of these people were unacceptable to the Japanese generals.

The pungent gunpowder smoke was pervasive, and the shells with blue smoke kept flying out from the Ming army. Every time a shell went out, there were casualties.

This time, Zha Dashou and others brought fifty artillery chariots, and each chariot was equipped with five to ten rounds of guns.These guns were loaded with lead bullets, iron sand, stones, gunpowder, etc. before the battle, and fired with one shot, they could seal off the surrounding frontage tens of meters wide.

The artillery of the Ming army fired continuously, blowing up the Japanese army in disarray, and the sky was dark, especially those Japanese warriors who rushed to the front suffered the heaviest losses.

The power of the artillery of the Ming army, except for Konishi Yuki, made Kobayakawa Takakage, Kuroda Nagamasa and others in the Bijo Pavilion see the muscles on their faces twitching.It was the first time they saw the power of the Ming army's artillery, and everyone changed color.This is still a light artillery of the Ming army. If it is a heavy artillery, what should I say?
Kobayakawa Longjing sighed inwardly: "President Xiaonishi is right, the stone fire arrows of the Tang people are indeed too powerful, if they are used to attack the city, they will only be bombed!"

However, although the artillery of the Ming army was powerful, the Japanese army was indeed strong. Although the casualties were heavy, they still faced the artillery fire without retreating, screaming and continuing to charge.

When they rushed nearly a hundred paces, the artillery fire of the Ming army stopped, and the Japanese army suddenly became happy.They cheered up and continued to charge, and when they reached sixty paces, the rocketmen in the Ming army had already come to the chariot, ready to shoot.Each of these rocketmen was armored, and carried sixty rockets, and three long matchlocks.Arrow baskets, oil covers, etc. are also available to prevent rain.

"Rocket ready!"

When the flag of the Chinese army wavered, hundreds of rocketmen immediately drew their hard bows.Immediately, the soldiers of the Ming army next to them ignited the gunpowder nozzles on their arrows with fire.

"put!"

"Hey!" Amidst the sound, the rocketmen of the Ming army shot the arrows in their hands. Amidst the dense whistling sound, the trail was accompanied by the tail smoke emitted by the jet of gunpowder.The Japanese samurai attacking in front, even though they were wearing armor, were still knocked to the ground by the rockets, and some Japanese samurai were even shot out by the rockets.

"put!"

Another wave of arrows rained, and many Japanese soldiers were shot into hedgehogs again.

After several blows, the Japanese assault troops were in pieces.By the time these Japanese soldiers rushed to the front of the Ming army 1000 steps away, at this time, more than [-] three-eyed guns of the Ming army had already lit the matchlocks and fired them all together.

Within this range, the three-eyed gun is very powerful, and the three-eyed gun has three tubes. After one tube is discharged, the three-eyed gun immediately turns, and the other tube shoots again. After shooting three consecutive tubes, wait for the choking smoke to dissipate. , In front of the chariot, there are already countless corpses of Japanese soldiers left behind.

At this time, most of the charging Japanese troops and the Japanese samurai troops charging ahead were almost dead, and most of the remaining Japanese troops couldn't help howling and retreating.And at this time, more than a thousand cavalrymen of the Ming army who were left in the inner circle came out to hunt down again...

"Eight Karma!"

The assault troop he carefully organized was so easily repulsed by the Ming army. This was beyond the expectation of Kobayakawa Takakage in front of the Bijokan. He lost face and began to organize the second assault without waiting for the Japanese troops who charged earlier to rest. .

……

I don't know how many times the Japanese attack was repelled. The Ming army first used the overwhelming firepower of Frang machine guns, firecrackers, and rockets to kill and injure the Japanese army in large numbers, and then used the cavalry's short attack to destroy the approaching ashigaru infantry, repelling the Japanese army. Attack after wave.

Finally, in the Ming army's position, the Frang machine artillery had run out of ammunition.Then, the rocketmen also finished shooting their arrows, and soon, the three-eyed guns in the Ming army also ran out of ammunition.

Facing the Japanese army rushing in again, Zha Dashou pulled out his saber and shouted: "Soldiers, fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death, fight to the death..."

There was no way out. At this time, the soldiers of the Ming army were all red-eyed. They either pulled out their waist knives, or inserted swords into the three-eyed blunderbuss, and used the three-eyed blunderbuss as a spear to start a war with the Japanese army. Bloody fighting.

Zha Dashou even led his army to attack many times in person, and it can be said that the beating at the foot of Bichiguan Mountain was earth-shattering, and there was a sea of ​​blood and corpses.Fighting from afternoon to night, and fighting until the next day, three thousand Ming troops, using chariots as fortifications, fought fiercely with many times the Japanese army all day and night.Facing the superior force of the Japanese army, although the Ming army suffered heavy casualties, the flag of the Ming army still stood tall and fluttered high.
The Ming army was so tenacious that Takakage Kobayakawa, Nagamasa Kuroda and the others were extremely shocked. Only then did they understand why Governor Konishi failed in Pyongyang City.

Now that it’s like this, what lures the enemy to go deep and wipe out most of the Ming army’s grand ambitions, Kobayakawa Takakage and others can’t talk about it. Their only wish is to eat the remnants of the Ming army under the Bijou Pavilion, so that they can barely survive. Save some face.

In the early morning of the 25th, Ukita Hideka, head of the Eighth Army and governor of Wang Jing, came with [-] reinforcements. Standing in front of him were Kobayakawa Takakage and others who had aged ten years overnight, and the extremely decadent Japanese soldiers. Besieged most.

Seeing Ukita Hide's family and others arriving, Kobayakawa Takakage would feel better, and he shouted: "Continue to attack!"

The banner of the lord general was passed from the mountain to the foot of the mountain again, and the cruel battle began again...

※※※

On the 21th day of the first month of the 25st year of Wanli, in the morning.

The iron hooves were like thunder, a group of Ming soldiers came in a hurry tens of miles away from the Bi Tiao Pavilion, and by looking at the banners, it was Li Rusong and most of Huang Laifu.In the ranks of the army, there are lieutenants Yang Yuan, Li Rubai, Zhang Shijue and others.

During this trip, Li Rusong, Yang Yuan, Li Rubai, Zhang Shijue and others had a total of more than 2000 servants.There are not many people, but they are all their most elite troops.And Huang Laifu brought out his three thousand soldiers and three hundred family members.
