Chapter 486: Tachibana Sogeru's Fear (Subscription Requested)

Tachibana Muneshige voiced his concerns, and Takahashi and Otomo Yoshito, who had been stationed in Fengshan, fell silent.

It is true that they had not paid attention to the supply convoy of Governor Konishi before this, but they knew very well what the consequences would be if there was a problem with the supply transportation.

When Konishi Yukinaga landed in Busan, he immediately went north to kill.

He and Kato Kiyomasa of the Second Army had never been saturated with logistics, and even had always been slightly insufficient, otherwise it would not have been possible to directly enter Pyongyang in just a few months and drive the king of Joseon to Uiju.

Governor Konishi did not dare to stretch the battle line again, firstly, because he wanted to use the Pyongyang defensive circle to compete with the Ming Dynasty, and secondly, he was also waiting for his logistical supplies to be in place.

Now that the logistics of the First Army are in trouble, the Ming Dynasty is really going to be determined to fight quickly, and how many days can Governor Konishi resist?

Two days?

Three days?

Tachibana Soshige didn't dare to think about it, and he couldn't think about it.

The soldier who came from Longquan Mountain to ask for help had already described the powerful combat power of the Ming army very clearly. Tachibana Muneshige didn't think that Konishi Yukicho's men could hold Pyongyang with one or two thousand people.

And if the three corps on their side were to supplement Pyongyang, then the Third Army would also follow north. The Pyongyang battle circle will once again become solid, and the Ming Dynasty's plan to completely annihilate the Pyongyang defenders will also go bankrupt.

Tachibana Soshige thought so, but he didn't know it at all. In Mo Xiaobai's eyes, solving him is actually more 'important' than taking Pyongyang.

In other words, the priority of defeating Tachibana Soshige is above that of Konishi Yukinaga!

This is the only strategic deployment that Mo Xiaobai intervenes in, and as for the specific tactics and strategies, Li Ji and Guo Jia formulated and perfected them based on Mo Xiaobai's strategic requirements.

Not knowing his 'priority', Tachibana Somao naturally didn't know that Da Ming had sent soldiers and horses to deal with him. It wasn't until the secret sentry of the march scattered in front of him didn't come back to report the road conditions for most of the quarter of an hour, that Tachibana Muneshige was a little alert.

Without waiting for him to signal the whole army to slow down, walking at the forefront, the Japanese soldiers at the corner of a mountain road that they had just passed had just turned from the corner, and they saw a column of elite soldiers of the Ming Dynasty in front of them.

"Archer, release the arrows!"

The post road met, and the Ming army, which had always maintained a combat formation, naturally took advantage of the first attack. Nearly 800 Yungui archers filled the bow, followed by a rain of arrows.

Without waiting for the results of this wave of arrow rain to appear, Yang Dengshan waved his hand and signaled his elite bird guns to attack.

It was also at this time that the three of Tachibana Somao heard the sound of fighting in front of them.

Hearing countless gunshots, Tachibana Soshige immediately changed his face: "The whole army stops, the whole army stops, move closer to the Chinese army, all move closer to the Chinese army!" ”

As soon as Tachibana Soshige's order was issued, the soldiers in front and behind all shrank. But the ranks were not so dense during the march, and it was undoubtedly whimsical to gather all the soldiers at this moment.

Not to mention that when the Da Ming Bird Gun completely defeated the hundreds of Japanese soldiers in the front, the heavy halberds also poured into the battlefield from the rear. Compared with the Japanese people who only wore cloth armor, the heavy halberd soldiers with heavy halberds and Tang Mo knives undoubtedly seemed to be both offensive and defensive.

After charging the Japanese soldiers, they only need to use the simplest chopping action to take the life of a famous Japanese soldier.

Slash with all your might, leaving no stone unturned.

Zhang He knew very well that he didn't need to fight for too long in this battle, as long as he gave the Japanese a head drink.

For the heavy halberds who are not good at fighting for a long time and fighting fiercely, letting them kill and then leave is simply the most pleasant combat deployment.

Tachibana Somao had just gathered the first few thousand people in the back of the Chinese army, set up a formation and prepared to rush forward, Zhang He and the heavy halberd had already killed almost eight or nine hundred Japanese people, plus the results of the Miao soldiers at the beginning, in just a quarter of an hour, the Japanese people fell more than one percent of their troops because of insufficient preparation.

However, when Tachibana Somao was about to surround the heavy halberders with a face full of anger, Zhang He decisively raised his hand and ordered a retreat, and the bird gunners who were sweeping on the side immediately stepped forward and broke off.

"Bang Bang"

Full firepower was opened to cover the retreat of the heavy halberds.

Except for two unlucky fellows who were surrounded by the widows, the rest of them all retreated safely.

The so-called 'pretending to be forced to run', that's it!

With the Miao soldiers covering the retreat, Tachibana Zong stomped his feet angrily, but did not let his soldiers and horses continue to charge in the case of unfavorable range.

staring at the Ming army in front of him with hatred, he gritted his teeth for a long time before he spoke: "Slow down in formation, there must be Ming soldiers ahead!" ”

At this moment, he has a deeper understanding of the Ming soldiers and horses. The Ming army has perfect strategic awareness, and even its tactics are outstanding.

Just like the ambush right now, they just got stuck in the position where they were not far from the Datong River. At this time, it is not cost-effective to withdraw troops and change lanes, even if they know that there is still a Ming army in front, Tachibana Somao has to go head-on.

What's more, the Ming army has already arranged soldiers and horses here, and Tachibana Somao is even more worried about Pyongyang in his heart.

Walking out of the mountain road with soldiers and horses like frightened birds, I saw the Ming troops by the river again.

Then, once again, he suffered a loss in the attack range, and watched as the Ming archers and bird gunners took turns to shoot once and then calmly retreated into the river.

But this time, because of the precautions, the shield protection was still in place, and less than 300 people fell.

"Chase!"

"The whole army advances, cross the river and kill the enemy!"

When the two armies meet, all Tachibana Soshige can do is hurry up and catch up. However, when he put all the protection in the forefront, it was inevitable that there would be loopholes on the side.

When a group of Japanese soldiers stepped on the river, Li Guang, who had been in ambush a mile away, swooped over from the upstream position with a tiger and leopard horseman.

Dawan sweat blood and iron armor heavy sword, although such a heavy cavalry is not many in number, but once it touched, it killed the Japanese soldiers and horses.

After penetrating the Japanese army formation from the side, Li Guang did not like to fight, and retreated directly to the north shore from the downstream.

Immediately after, the Hammer Soldier followed.

Tachibana Zongmao looked at this endless and complicated Ming army, and his heart was simply broken.

The Ming army did not even launch an offensive against Pyongyang?

Instead waiting for yourself here?

A heavy hammer smashed into those shield soldiers in the hands of five strong men and three thick soldiers, shields that could resist arrows and bullets, but they could not resist the heavy hammer.

Even if he can put a heavy hammer in his crotch, the Japanese soldier holding the shield is numb by the town's hands.

"The front army retreats, and the iron gunners shoot!"

Tachibana Somao saw the move and wanted to use the iron gunner to attack these heavy hammer soldiers who didn't wear much protection, but the heavy hammer soldiers were not stupid, just like the heavy halberd soldiers before, they ran away immediately after smashing the addiction.

Their task itself is not to kill the enemy, as long as they let the Japanese soldiers and horses curl up on the river, it is a great achievement.

Seeing that thousands of Japanese people were all in formation on the river, Mo Xiaobai, who had been watching the battle on the riverbank, squinted and smiled: "Tachibana Zongmao, today is the day of your defeat!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the artillery trucks were already in a position.

The iron cannon is reloaded, and the fuse is ignited.

Seeing solid iron bullets flying into the sky, Tachibana Sogeru, who was standing in the center of the battle array, instantly thought of something.

Panic and fear crawled all over the face at this moment.
