Chapter 5: Inchon Landing

"In any case, the current situation, there is only one battle!" Jin Zidian looked at the exhausted Li Lian, and said in a deep voice: "No matter what, please cheer up the king." If it is correct, it can continue the national glory for another hundred years, and if it is wrong, it will destroy the country in an instant. Now that I have been guilty of the Ming court, it is better to have the heart to destroy this dynasty and condemn me to a century-old foundation of North Korea! ”

When Li Liang heard this, he couldn't help nodding: "I know, I know." This battle is all up to metallographic. The general office of the five guards will be under the control of the prime minister. ”

Seeing this, Jin Zidian was overjoyed and said: "Please rest assured, my great Korea will win the invasion of the Ming army." ”

Li Qi cheered up and encouraged Jin Zi to say a few words, and then he stopped.

The so-called Wuwei Capital Headquarters is the western class of the two classes of Korean civil and military.

The Wuwei Capital Headquarters belongs to the Western Ban, and this time Li Liang is equivalent to letting out the central guard: Yixingwei, the left guard: Long Xiangwei, the right guard: Hu Benwei, the avant-garde: Zhongzuowei, and the guard: Zhongwuwei.

Of course, the nominal army of the Korean state is very large, and there are also the so-called five military camps, namely: the training capital prison, the imperial camp hall, the guard camp, the general army hall, and the guard hall; The three inner halls include the Inner Guard, the Servant, the Yulin Guard, the Hu Guard Hall, the Robbery Hall, the Suppression Camp, the Management Battalion, the Dragon and Tiger Battalion, the Prime Minister's Battalion, the Shizi Yi Wei Division, and the Shisun Wei Division.

It's just that in addition to the five military battalions and a few internal guards stationed around the palace, most of them are weak and unable to fight, although the commanders of these guards, halls, and battalions are all in charge of the second grade, and even many are also on the first grade, but when it comes to the wheel, they are not as powerful as the executives of the eastern class.

Guy is due to North Korea's lack of finances. Military spending is scarce, and maintenance is already difficult. Impeachment perk?

It's just that Jin Zidian is confident and high-spirited.

He presided over the battle against the Qing army. He also participated in the Battle of Songshan with Korean firecrackers and experienced the great victory of the Qing army. As far as Jin Zidian is concerned, he does not believe that the Ming army can be as strong as the Qing army in any case.

The Ming Navy Division is indeed powerful, but when it goes down to land, can it still be stronger than the strong army that once participated in the Qing War?

"Then why is Ni Yuanlu pretentious, as soon as he enters North Korea, he collects military funds in every possible way, and it is clear that he wants to collect military funds for the prince of Ming Kingdom, and I am really blind from top to bottom in North Korea? They also stored all the supplies in Jewupo, which is just self-destruction! "Jin Zidian stood in the headquarters of the five guards. looked at the general manager and said, "Where is Li Renzhan?" ”

"The last general!" Suddenly, a majestic man walked out in armor, and he saw that the generals and officials were looking sideways. It is the head of the Five Guards Governor's Mansion Long Xiangwei.

"I order you to be the general of the Wuwei Capital, to command the whole army, and to open up Jiwupu! There are clouds in the book of soldiers, and they attack halfway. The so-called Ming army is really not worthy of the name, and this time it was killed, and there were only thousands of soldiers and horses. All you have to do is get it on the docks, and you'll be able to do a great job! At that time, the official will not hesitate to add officials to the knighthood! Jin Zidian couldn't help but boost the morale of the army: "This time, I have already allocated 20,000 taels of silver from the treasury. as a reward for exaltation. In the barracks, there is also good wine and meat, and the whole army is rewarded! ”

"Kill. Kill, kill! "The morale of the managers has been greatly boosted.

At the moment, it is still called Jemulpo's Incheon-ri. The North Korean thunderclouds rolled in August, and the wind and waves from the sea soon reached the peninsula. Then the clouds rolled up and the wind and rain continued.

Li Zhiyou gently took out the long knife in his hand and wiped it, and then there was a knife. The delicate sharkskin scabbard and the name of the master craftsman engraved on it reveal the extraordinary name of the time.

"I really want to be able to drink the blood of the Ming people." Li Zhiyou took out the knife in his hand, looked at a soldier with bright armor, and couldn't help but say proudly: "The Ming people will definitely not have such a soldier with bright armor." You know, most North Korean soldiers don't even have a piece of armor! It is also at this time that the strong soldiers of the Tiger Benwei can put on armor for everyone! ”

"General! The Tiger Ben Guard has finished patrolling and has not found anything suspicious. At this time, his lieutenant Li Chengyan came over and said in a loud voice.

"Well, good! Is the reinforcement of the Nanshan Fort ready? Li Zhiyou said, walking towards the Nanshan Fort.

This is the commanding height of the entire Inchon defense, and it is also a place where the Koreans rarely profit from following the Qing Dynasty.

The Manchurians don't produce, so naturally there are no technicians, but the more powerful firearms of the Ming Dynasty make them jealous and coveted. Later, Kong Youde's rebellion gave Huang Taiji a great boost, not only with gunners, but also abducted Sun Yuanhua's much-needed artillery manufacturing technology for several years, so that the Qing people also had artillery power.

Of course, the Qing people did not trust the Han Chinese, and later saw that the Koreans also followed the Japanese to establish an iron artillery team, so they recruited a group of Koreans. After the Bingzi Rebellion, Korea submitted to the Qing people, and in the past few years, a number of Korean craftsmen also returned to China to cast cannons for the Koreans, and the Namsan Fort in Incheon was established under such circumstances.

"General, the thousand defenders responsible for strengthening have also passed!" Li Chengyan said respectfully.

"Check it out!"

When he arrived at the Nanshan Fort, Li Chengyan waved off a cadre of soldiers on duty and took a closer look.

Most of the cannons on the fort are general's cannons, and they are also imitations of the Qing people's "Shenwei Invincible General's Cannon".

In addition to the mouth edge, the gun body is thin in front and thick in the back, the bottom cover is like a covered bowl, there is a spherical tail bead, there is a square fire door near the bottom of the gun, a gun lug is horizontally out on both sides of the middle of the gun body, there is a front sight and a light door directly above the gun muzzle and the bottom, the gun body has five hoops, and there is a closing suture line left at the half-waist, which looks like it has not been cast.

The length of the whole cannon is slightly shorter than one zhang, about seven feet, and the caliber is one hand long, which is a cannon weighing 300 catties. The shells weighed seven pounds.

"It's a pity that there is no Wucheng Yonggu General Cannon. I heard that the Qing people have built a 3,000-pound heavy cannon, which is this Wucheng Yonggu General Cannon. It can weigh 3,000 catties, and the shells can weigh more than 10 catties, and they must be carried by iron axle gun trucks so as not to be crushed. If there is such a heavy artillery, why worry about the threat of wild words? Li Chengyan sighed.

Li Zhiyou was sober-minded and said: "It's better to only have General Weiyuan's cannon, just this half the length." ”

Of course, in addition to this Namsan Fort, only Seoul can still have so many heavy artillery. There is not even the so-called Weiyuan General Cannon.

Merely. For Li Zhiyou, who first saw the power of artillery, he didn't think that the Ming Dynasty could have such powerful artillery: "The Fu ship has always been a transport ship. There has never been any heavy artillery at sea, and I saw these hundreds of pounds of artillery. You must be scared and run away, right? ”

"Hahaha......" Li Chengyan echoed and laughed: "I'm afraid that the Ming people at this moment are afraid of the storm and don't dare to come!" ”

"Hahaha......" Li Zhiyou also smiled.

But they soon couldn't laugh anymore.

Four battleships with slender hulls rode the wind and waves, suddenly changed from a small black dot to a large black dot from the sea, and then began to move towards the port of Incheon at a speed unimaginable to the North Koreans.

"Ming Dynasty people...... Here it ......."

On the Xingchen, Bao Guo gently stroked the first gun on the battleship, which was a naval gun rebuilt for the Xingchen by craftsmen in the Ming Dynasty with copper at no cost.

According to the new Ming system promoted by Zhu Cihong in the craftsman compound, this gun has a caliber of 121 mm, a length of 3.1 meters, and a shell weight of 12 catties. The total weight is 3,000 catties.

The guns of the other three battleships were slightly less powerful, and they were basically missing the appearance of a thousand pounds.

"I just don't know how powerful the guns of the defenders on the harbor are, after all, the battleship moves the hull when the cannon is opened, and it is more accurate without a fixed battery!" Bao Guo thought so, but did not let down his vigilance: "All departments prepare!" ”

"Roar!" On the Star, the roar was like thunder.

……

On the Nanshan Fort, there was a slight panic.

"Don't shoot randomly! Where are the gunners? Where are the gunners? If you don't come out again, you're going to have to march to the law! Li Zhiyou shouted.

On the side, Li Chengyan quietly pulled Li Zhiyou's sleeve and said, "General...... They had just been kicked out of the battery. ”

"Then get ready. the gun! "Li Zhiyou knows how to fire a cannon, but he doesn't have an accurate head at all.

Finally, after a while, more than 100 gunners on the battery ran in breathlessly again, and then began to take out ammunition forks under Li Zhiyou's strict orders. Ignite the stick, and hurriedly reload, weigh the gunpowder.

Thereinto. One of the gunners who seemed to be the most experienced looked at Li Zhiyou with trepidation and said, "General...... Now is not the time to open fire. ”

"The thieves are here, and they can't fire yet? Who are you? When will it be your turn to teach Ben the generals a lesson? Li Zhiyou was annoyed.

Li Chengyan felt bad, and waved away the idle people.

Suddenly. The old gunner whispered: "I can't hit ......"

Li Zhiyou's face turned red, and he finally held back his anger and said, "Ben will go to supervise other military affairs!" Li Chengyan, you are here to defend! ”

"Yes......" Li Chengyan whispered.

But at this moment, a muffled thunder exploded out of thin air.

Then, a parabola crossed the fort and smashed into the mountain behind the fort, seeing Li Zhiyou stunned for a while, turned to look at the old gunner, and said angrily: "Bold! How dare you deceive me! ”

"The villain doesn't dare to ......" The old gunner knelt on the ground: "This kind of cannon sound, the villain has only heard it on the four-thousand-pound Wucheng Yonggu General Cannon...... This...... This ......"

"On such a small ship, you can put 4,000 pounds of heavy artillery? It's not that you are deceiving me, what else can it be? Come on, drag me out and cut it off! Li Zhiyou roared angrily, and he didn't know whether he was roaring that the Ming army could have such a heavy cannon on the ship, or roaring that the next battle was doomed.

Rumble......

Rumble......

Rumble......

Rumble......

……

At this moment, several cannons rang out, and one after another the artillery bombarded the case, smashing on the fort, and countless debris exploded.

Li Chengyan no longer cared about Li Zhiyou's anger, and called a few pro-soldiers to drag Li Zhiyou away desperately.

The old gunner was lucky enough to save his life, but he didn't care about the fort anymore, and he was about to run away with a few apprentices.

"Division...... Master, we haven't fired a shot yet......"

"What is the difference of ten times the difference between this appearance? Run! ”

……

With two more shells smashed into the fort, the remaining troops suddenly dispersed.

"Marines, it's time to land." Zhu Cihong put down the glasses in his hand, looked at Xie Hongyun who was returning in front of him and said, "Xie Qing, let's continue to play chess." ”

As he spoke, Zhu Cihong's son fell.

……

"So, you just didn't shoot and ran back?" Li Renzhan looked at the two people in front of him: "This is a deserter!" Why don't you go back now! ”

Li Zhiyou's face was dejected, but Li Chengyan was a little bold: "General! After all, we have retained the main force of the army, and now that the Ming army is about to log in, it is better to obey the orders of the Jinxiang half-crossing attack! ”

Li Renzhan gritted his teeth and wanted to shout out the words of dragging it out and cutting it off, but he couldn't make up his mind.

North Korea is similar to the Ming Dynasty, and the status of the civil and military classes is very different, and the military generals are far inferior to the civilian officials.

At this moment, Jin Qizong rushed over and said breathlessly: "The Ming army is really here?" ”

"That's the diagnosis, my lord! We're going to get ready for a battle, half a crossing! "Li Zhiyou was rejuvenated in vain.

Jin Qizong's face was pale, and he listened to Li Zhiyou's chirping and saying a lot, and only after a long time did he throw out a sentence, saying: "We must defeat the Ming army in a battle!" That's right, half-crossing, and the Ming army that landed on the pier gathered and annihilated it! ”

Li Renzhan said: "The last general will lead the troops to Jewupo Port......"

"General, go quickly, I'll prepare logistics for you in the rear!" Jin Qizong's face was overjoyed.

The dinghy was gently lowered in the pre-dawn night, and Xu Wen bit the reeds in his mouth and was silent. Behind him, the three hundred soldiers were all silent, each holding a musket wrapped in oiled paper in their hands, and began to disembark the boat one after another.

When they arrived at the beach, a group of hard-working pearl divers looked at them in amazement, then fled screaming. They didn't have long to escape, and they found that at some point, a few wet Ming soldiers with long knives had appeared on the case, blocking the way.

"It's the robe that answers, don't care, move on!" Xu Wen said and threw away the reeds.

They went ashore.

……

As dawn rose, the warships of the Ming Dynasty began to move closer and denser towards the port of Incheon. Behind the four warships, countless lucky ships began to gather, of different sizes, with the same purpose and landing towards the port of Incheon.

"Damn, do the Akito really think they can capture Jemulpo today?" An older officer said angrily.

"Azhashi...... Will we die here? Beside him, a young soldier who looked sixteen or seventeen years old shrunk down, and although he was a soldier, he did not even have a full armour, but could only wear coarse cloth clothes at first sight, and held a spear that was somewhat embroidered.

"No...... We're going to win! The officer whispered relief.

Li Renzhan muttered, "Will you win?" ”

On the side, Li Zhiyou said in a low voice: "General, why don't we stand back." In case the Ming army fires artillery, we can only suffer from ......"

"Reasonable...... But I couldn't do that, and as soon as I did, the morale of the army was shaken. Li Renzhan said indifferently.

Rumble......

On the sea, the ship's guns roared again.

One by one, the dinghy was lowered, and countless soldiers began to gather towards the harbor.

At this moment, there was a thunderous cannon sound from the Nanshan Fort.

"Our gunners are still there?" Li Renzhan said in surprise.

"That's not right...... The muzzle of the gun is turned! Li Chengyan was terrified.
