Daming Shuanglong Biography

069 [Blood Battle Pyongyang]

At this time, good news came from Mudantai. Under the heroic attack of the monks and Ming army, our army finally occupied Mudantai, and the general Songpu Zhenxin fled back to the city with the remnants. Li Rusong said that Wu Wei was loyal to stay on the Peony platform, and the monk led the monks from the north to make contributions to the Changqing Gate.

Perhaps influenced by the results of the Mudantai war, the morale of the Ming army took another level and instantly broke through the outer city defense line of Pyongyang. This also made Xiaoxi governor discouraged and decided to give up the periphery and concentrate his troops to defend the inner city.

The allied forces of the Ming Dynasty invaded from all gates, and Li Rusong also entered the city. The Datong Gate is still empty, and the Ming army firmly implements the policy of not surrounding death, leaving behind.

Huo Fangyi followed Li Rusong into the city. What he saw when he entered the city was a more tragic street battle. Pyongyang's streets were narrow, there were many alleys, and * houses were full of wooden houses. As soon as Xiaoxi entered Pyongyang City, he ordered to make holes in all the roadway boards. The size of the hole was just to accommodate the Japanese iron cannons. Therefore, the Japanese army's retreat to the defense line did not retreat all the soldiers into the inner city, but left a large number of the dead behind the holes to attack the Ming army.

As a result, the Ming army suffered heavy casualties. As soon as they entered the roadway, they were killed by bullets flying from nowhere. And Huo Fangyi saw the worst time of the Ming army. Countless bodies of the Ming army piled up in the alleyway and wailed all over the field. The Ming army was generally equipped with fire arrows, and the fire arrows could not be of any use at this time. They could not find a target or shoot into the room. The only way was to break through the door and enter, so that if you want to kill an enemy, you have to pay. At the cost of more than a dozen friendly troops, the Ming army can't afford such casualties. * Only a few soldiers have it, and most of these soldiers are Li Rusong's men, sitting in the back, and the cannons can't be used in this narrow lane, which can only hurt his own people. Li Rusong is at a loss. After barely cleaning up the streets of the outer city, it was already sunset. Li Rusong ordered him to rest in place, be prepared, and make a long-term plan tomorrow.

Li Rusong's mood was heavy. He didn't expect the first battle to be so difficult. At night, he frowned at the starry sky.

"General" Huo Fangyi couldn't sleep either. He came to talk to Li Rusong. Li Rusong became closer to Huo Fangyi. He motioned Huo Fangyi to get closer: "Brother Huo, how should we fight tomorrow's battle? I want to hear your advice. A leading force of the Japanese army has caused such a tenacious resistance to our army. Tomorrow's battle will definitely be more difficult to fight!"

"General, I personally think that this kind of thing can't be hard to fight. You should think more about tricks. Isn't that right?

"Then what do you think we should do?"

At this time, Huo Fangyi didn't have any plan in his heart. He just felt that he should say so. He also looked up at the starry sky for a while and suddenly thought of something: "General, didn't we leave a gap? Let them go, and then we'll ambush them!"

"I've also thought about this, but now the Japanese army has retreated to the inner city, and the nominal gap has actually been surrounded by us."

"Then we will flash a way and let them pass!"

"We make it simple, but the key is whether they dare to leave?"

"What are you afraid of? Anyway, if they attack, the Japanese army will be destroyed. I think they would rather have a fluke than fight against trapped beasts after weighing it."

"It makes sense. You can have a try."

Li Rusong immediately entered the account and wrote a letter: "I wanted to fight against you and other Japanese pirates in one fell swoop, but I don't want to sacrifice the lives of too many soldiers. Today, I will give up the power to wait for you. Those who know the current affairs will retreat quickly tonight, otherwise the sun will rise tomorrow when you will be destroyed! "

After receiving this letter, President Xiaoxi was also suspicious, but after consultation with the generals, he also came to the conclusion that stubborn resistance to guard is inevitable. If he takes the opportunity to escape from the city, there is still a glimmer of life. So he immediately replied, "Our army did not want to be the enemy of Daming. Please give way. Our army can still withdraw."

"The Japanese army was really fooled!" Li Rusong was very happy that he didn't have to kill any more soldiers, and the soldiers came to take Pyongyang without blood. There is a superstition in marching and fighting, that is, he is afraid that he will be unfavorable. Fortunately, Li Rusong doesn't have to worry about not winning the first battle this time.

Li Rusong immediately ordered to give up the alleyway from the inner city to Datong Gate, and President Xiaoxi led his troops to flee overnight.

"General, can't we ambush the enemy in the city like the Japanese army?" Huo Fangyi didn't want to miss any opportunity to attack the enemy.

"I don't think so. Liu Chenglong has sent troops to ambush on the south bank of the Datong River, and Luo Shangzhi's artillery troops are also guarding there. If we fight with the Japanese army again in the city, the Japanese army is bound to doubt our sincerity. At that time, the casualties of our army will not be small in the dark."

"Then we will chase the Japanese army! The combination with the * army will be the biggest blow to the Japanese army!"

"This method is feasible, like Bai!"

Li Rusong's second brother Li Rubai came over with a horse: "I ordered you to lead 5,000 elite soldiers to chase the Japanese deserters! As long as we catch up with Luo Shangzhi's troops on the north bank of the Datong River, we are not familiar with the terrain of the south bank, so let * people chase them.

"Order!"

After saying that, Li Rubai took 5,000 cavalry troops to the Datong River to kill. Now President Xiaoxi did not know that there were two troops ambushed near the Datong River, and a unit was chased behind him. This means that there is a blockade in the front and a pursuer in the back. This time his life is over!

The Ming Dynasty allied forces stepped into the inner city of Pyongyang, and the inner city was full of * people and Japanese corpses. At this time, the originally glorious palace was also depleted by the fire of war. * It was also a country, but now it is going to become a subjugated slave.

Li Rusong confidently adjusted the army and supplies in the inner city, treated the wounded soldiers, and restored his physical strength. He is waiting for the good news from * people and his subordinates. He knows that President Xiaoxi is the chief minister of Toyotomi Hideyoshi! He is the most trusted general. If he can beheaded, the war will change, at least Li Rusong thinks so.

It is said that President Xiaoxi led the remaining troops to flee south desperately. At this time, President Xiaoxi's troops were actually not heavy losses in the defense of the city, and there were still more than 9,000 people. But when fleeing to the south, the Japanese soldiers don't care about anything, as long as they can survive. Some horses run forward at the fastest speed. If they don't ride a horse, they will run desperately. Even if they break their legs, they can't stop!

After all, President Xiaoxi is a general. He knew that such a aimless run will eventually bring a devastating blow to his troops. He stopped his ** war horses and shouted loudly to the vice generals who were guarding him to let them all withdraw their fear. I'm close to you.

"Stop, stop!"

The vice generals originally gathered beside President Xiaoxi to protect him, so it was easy for them to strangle the horse, stop, and then lean over like President Xiaoxi. At this time, although many soldiers also heard the shouts of Captain Xiaoxi, they don't care about that, because they all run on two legs, which can't be compared with the four legs of the leaders. Now they don't run for a while and run even more quickly. No matter what they discuss, it's not wrong to keep running.

"General"

Xiaoxi Xingchang gasped and said, "We can't run around like this anymore. You all scattered around to stabilize the army and call all the soldiers here. From now on, I will stop here!"

"General, this is too dangerous!"

"Listen to me, go!" Xiaoxi decided to do so, because he had to take the risk. Even if he could escape and the soldiers were destroyed, it would be meaningless.

The deputy generals couldn't convince the general, so they had to disperse and go in the east, west, north and south to organize the fleeing soldiers.

President Xi also knows that Li Rusong may not keep his promises. In case this boy chases him from behind or sets an ambush in front, he is more or less auspicious. However, it is relatively better to organize all the soldiers than to fight separately, and the chance of survival is greater. From this point, it is necessary to risk himself. This danger!

Of course, there are two vice generals left beside President Xiaoxi to protect his safety at any time. This job is not easy for those vice generals, and they should be worried, especially those who go backwards. In case the Ming army has caught up with it, it will be even more difficult for them to escape for their lives!

"Don't run away! Turn back with me!" The forward vice general ran to the front of the team and shouted.

"What? Do you want us to go back? In case..."

This deputy general is a hate character. He cut off the soldier who said half a word with a knife: "Damn, you run fast! Don't talk nonsense, come back with me!"

An action is much more effective than many words. No one has any objection and obediently followed him back.

The general who went back was a little relaxed. He only ran to the end of the team to look at the dark night, and then fought a cold war. Although there was no movement in the dark night, he was still extremely afraid. He quickly plucked his horse and shouted, "Come on, follow me!"

These backward soldiers were already very afraid at the end, but now when they heard that a general came back to guide them, they all followed quickly!

There was nothing to say. The soldiers gradually followed the lieutenant generals to the side of President Xiaoxi.

Half an hour, the governor of Xiaoxi and others were thrilled. In this half an hour, he may have crossed the Datong River, or he may have been caught up by the Ming army in an instant.

But this half an hour is enough for Li Rubai's army to catch up. They are close, only two miles away! Xiaoxi didn't know it. He ordered the generals to divide the troops into eight parts, each with about 1,000 deputy generals, followed him, and then began to flee for his life in an orderly manner!

Running, they have seen different ups and downs in the horizontal line of the night ahead, and the Datong River has arrived!
