Zhu Youjian: Taizu has an order! kill!

However, although Huang Taiji was angry, he did not order the army to attack.

Instead, he waited quietly.

They were originally here to deal with the Japanese army this time.

They had to launch an offensive first from the Japanese side before they could attack.

Fortunately, the Japanese side did not keep Huang Taiji waiting too long.

The last day of August.

Tokugawa Youmaru stood under a group of mountains outside Kaicheng and officially issued the order to attack!

"Everyone, the time has come to avenge our compatriots!"

"There was civil strife in the Ming Dynasty, and now we don't even care about Mao Wenlong."

"This is our chance to get revenge!"

"We want to avenge the nearly 100,000 people who died in Japan!"

"Under the protection of Amaterasu, we will definitely succeed this time!"

Inside a tent.

Tokugawa Youmaru was sitting on a high seat, waving his hands and speaking loudly.

Originally, he thought that he would have no chance to lead an army again, but the main force in his hometown, who did not want to be taken back, defied all odds and appointed him as a general again.

The commander-in-chief of the Japanese army sent 200,000 troops to Korea!

This really moved Tokugawa Youmaru so much.

At the same time, he also swore in his heart that he would chop off Mao Wenlong’s dog head and offer it to his old family master!

And after landing in North Korea and taking half of the land without destroying it, Tokugawa Youmaru's heart became extremely expanded.

In his opinion, the Dongjiang Army, which was huddled in one place, was already a turtle in a urn.

They have formed an encirclement in three directions. This battle will be lost if Mao asks!

"Hi!"

"We will win if we wait!"

"If Mao Wenlong hadn't attacked him last time, he would have left him in Japan!

"I can't wait!"

Below, a group of Tokugawa generals were equally excited.

A great start!

Two hundred thousand versus fifty thousand, how to lose?

You can win in any fight!

"Since everyone has no objections, let's do it."

"I heard that Mao Wenlong staged some kind of positional battle and is preparing to fight us to the death here."

"Then let's let him know this time that his defense is as vulnerable as himself!"

"The 20,000 people from the Qi family army are currently responsible for the defense of Kaicheng."

"Just in time, let's settle old and new grudges together."

"Destroy them first, and then go straight to Pyongyang!"

Tokugawa Youmaru saw that the morale was good, and he immediately ordered the entire army to attack.

As long as he can win this battle, Tokugawa Youmaru will be the great hero of the entire Japanese country!

It’s exciting just thinking about it!

The next day, with the rising sun.

The Japanese took the lead in dedicating 50,000 men to attack the first line of defense outside Kaesong from three directions.

For a time, the entire mountain forest was filled with howling Japanese soldiers.

On the defense line above, we watched the Japanese pirates launch an attack.

Qi Daguang sneered and waved his hand.

Immediately, the artillery deployed at the back of the first line of defense opened fire first!

A total of sixty artillery pieces from the three peaks on the left, center and right directly launched indiscriminate coverage.

Also taking action were the repeating crossbowmen deployed at the front.

As the first army in the Ming Dynasty to equip public transport continuous crossbows, the Qi family's 20,000-strong army alone was equipped with a total of 10,000 crossbows.

It can be said that this repeating crossbow is really used as a conventional weapon!

For a time, artillery and repeated crossbows suppressed the Japanese pirates' offensive.

But that didn't last long.

The Japanese pirates have too many soldiers and horses, and the others are not stupid either.

Although they cannot protect against artillery, they are basically equipped with small wooden shields.

The lethality of the repeating crossbow against them has been reduced a lot.

Soon, when the first round of artillery ceased firing, these Japanese pirates immediately started to rush upward with red eyes!

Qi Daguang was not anxious when he saw this.

After seeing that the distance was almost the same, people started throwing rolling rocks.

Various traps also began to appear on the hillside.

Densely packed logs rolled down the cleared hillside, almost each one capable of carrying several people away.

Behind him, Tokugawa Youmaru, who was supervising the battle, frowned slightly when he saw this, but soon relaxed.

So far, these methods are within his expectations.

If it were just these words, it would not be able to stop the attack of the Japanese warriors.

"Command the archer to step forward three hundred meters and shoot!"

"Order the catapult to pick up the wood and rocks on the ground and throw them back at me!"

"Tell the troops in front that the first one to rush forward will be rewarded with five hundred taels of silver!"

Soon, two thousand archers came forward and began to use bows and arrows to suppress the Qi family's army halfway up the mountain.

Catapults were also pushed out and loaded with ammunition for counterattack.

It has to be said that the power of this sling is still much stronger than that of the archer.

Although the Qi Family Army was only a second-class army, it actually received the equipment of a first-class army.

Full-coverage armor is not afraid of arrows shot from the bottom up at all.

On the contrary, these stones thrown up gave them a headache.

"Order the artillery to aim at those catapults!"

"After another round of bombardment, the artillery battalion moved sideways to the high ground of the second line of defense."

"The rest of the people will stay here with me for half an hour and then withdraw."

Qi Daguang glanced at the sling below and made adjustments quickly.

On the top of the mountain, one after another Franchise began to adjust its muzzle.

Then there was a violent roar that echoed through the mountains!

Visible to the naked eye, the firing frequency of those catapults is severely limited.

Without the artillery suppression, the Japanese pirates, who were also a little uncomfortable at first, began to charge forward.

Both parties went back and forth, and it can be said that no one backed down even a step!

After a stick of incense, the artillery battalion ceased fire and began to rear.

After all, Tokugawa Youmaru still had some abilities. After discovering that the firepower on the top of the mountain was gone, he immediately analyzed that it might be that the Qi Army's ammunition was insufficient.

Directly lead the 10,000 people to personally launch a general attack!

However, when they finally reached the defense line halfway up the mountain, they found that the arrogant Qi Daguang had already led his men back a step!

"idiot!"

"Don't run away if you can!"

"Charge! Kill them!"

Now Tokugawa Youmaru was a little annoyed.

I finally brought the people up here, but you actually want to run away?

Run a hammer!

Come and have a good fight!

However... facing the angry Tokugawa Youmaru, the Qi Jiajun on the hilltop showed no interest in paying attention.

After using rolling rocks and giant trees to block for a while, they gave up their position again and retreated to the top of the mountain.

And then...

The top of the mountain also gave way.

When Tokugawa Youmaru reached the top of the mountain, he saw Qi Daguang and his men retreating directly to the second line of defense not far away.

From the terrain point of view, it is more dangerous than this first line of defense!

"idiot..."

"What a bunch of cowards."

"Okay, if you can, retreat to Beijing City!"

"Instruct the entire army to rest on the spot and wait until tomorrow to attack again."

Tokugawa Youmaru swore that if it weren't for the darkening sky, he would have to fight again.

We have no choice but to order overall repairs first.

Go to bed first, then continue killing tomorrow!

And all this was clearly seen by a hidden scout not far away.

After receiving the news, Qi Daguang suddenly showed a smile after confirming that the Japanese pirates had started to rest.

I have to say, this method of Mao Wenlong is really useful.

In this battle just now, I only lost forty or fifty people, while my opponent was guaranteed to lose one or two thousand people.

If we wait for another raid tonight, the losses to the Japanese pirates will definitely be even greater!

Hahaha!

He can't wait to see Tokugawa Youmaru's face tomorrow!
