A Weird Theater That Started In London

Vol 11 Chapter 94: Empire Afterglow (5)

, !

As soon as the navy arrives, all the troops used in the decisive battle will be gathered, and a battle that is far superior to the past can be fought:

In just a few months, the total strength of the Ming army in the DPRK has surged to 142,700 people, and the military appearance is unprecedented!

And more soldiers and more generals!

The former is a good thing, while the latter is a little troublesome. With so many generals, deputy generals, and guerrillas gathered from all over the world, it is undoubtedly a hassle to manage.

Dong Yiyuan is a veteran, and his status is not lower than Magui. Liu Wei, the general of the sword from Bashu, also bears the title of Admiral on his head.

According to the initial plan of the court, it was planned to arrange a title of Admiral for Chen Lin, but it was considered later. To be led by Lu Li, who was airborne to the Navy, he would not be promoted, and he would still be the deputy commander-in-chief.

"The expedition is imminent. If you don't know the superiority and inferiority, it will happen sooner or later."

within the camp.

Yang Hao looked around and seemed to want to see who had objections to this, but at this juncture, no one would be demented enough to speak out against it in public.

After all, Jing Lue has passed two levels in a row, showing a great background.

"very good."

As Li Rumei returned to China to take over the position of his brother, Yang Hao put away all his thoughts and began to devote himself to the decisive battle.

If there are more mistakes, several crimes will be punished together, not to mention the two elders, even if the entire cabinet speaks for itself, they will not be able to escape death.

Camp corner.

Wei Feng, Zhou Tian, ​​and the others looked at Lu Li, who was leading the way, with envy.

After all, his position as chief soldier is a unique existence, and at present, although he has not been awarded the position of admiral, he has the reality of admiral.

Pan Ming pressed all his thoughts. With Lu Li being transferred to the Navy, he would not be able to get much help in the future, so he had to find a way to kill Naoshimo Nabeshima's existence.

So it's safe...

For a time, people's minds were different.

As for the fine adjustment of the command system, it is not that complicated. Xing Jie coordinates the overall situation, Yang Hao arranges the strategy, and the following front-line commanders are divided into:

Ma Gui, Dong Yiyuan, Liu Wei three war zones.

In addition, every admiral was accompanied by a supervisor.

This is completely understandable. Yang Hao fought a bad battle on Daoshan, and his defeat was so bizarre that Emperor Wanli became suspicious—

So many generals won't be in one accord and lie about the military situation, right?

Therefore, the duty of the supervisor is very simple, that is, to investigate the merits and crimes, and, in terms of small strategies and tactics, the admiral has to discuss with them.

"Everyone knows their respective tasks, right?"

Xing Jie opened his mouth.

The generals nodded.

Now that the war zones have been divided, the battle plan must have been formulated accordingly.

There is not much difference with history, because there is only one optimal solution.

In this strategic plan, the Ming army will be divided into four routes, the army of the three routes will attack Suncheon, Sacheon and Ulsan respectively, and the navy will sweep the seas along the way.

With the momentum of thunder, quickly destroy the Japanese defense line, making it impossible to care for each other.

Frankly speaking, the previous addition of Li Rumei's department has not changed the dilemma that the Ming army has always been outnumbered in the Korean battlefield. Now, it is finally possible to outnumber the few.

Because of this, the last and largest battle to resist Japanese and aid Korea officially started.

There is no rite of passage.

First, Xing Jie and Yang Hao were embarrassed to do it again when they were beaten in the face last time.

The second is that the coalition forces have an absolute advantage in terms of strength, and there is no need to pay attention to this kind of falsehood.

Ma Gui's right-wing army, a total of 33,000 people, most of the actors mixed in, attacked Ulsan again;

The West Route Army of Liu Qi, with a large sword, has a strength of 25,000 people and aims to follow the sky;

And Dong Yiyuan's Middle Route Army, with a total strength of 39,000 people, mainly attacked Sichuan.

Counting the more than 10,000 navy troops under Lu Li's command, the Ming army dispatched nearly 110,000 water and land troops for this attack.

The remaining 30,000 elites are stationed at the Seoul Base Camp and will be mobilized according to the situation.

In fact, this mobilization figure is fully worthy of the grand idea of ​​"four-way progress" at the top.

Moreover, the elites of the Li Chao who acted as auxiliary soldiers and cannon fodder were not counted. Although their overall combat effectiveness was not as good as that of the Ming army, their numbers were still there, and some generals and their troops had also made outstanding performances.

According to the "outdated" information obtained in advance, Sacheon was the center of the Japanese defense line, and they recruited a large number of slaves and gathered here.

Therefore, this place is dotted with dozens of camps, and the defense is tight. It is estimated that there are people who make the Ming army a headache—

Maybe Toyotomi Hideyoshi is here.

Therefore, Yang Hao paid special attention to this route, and arranged the central route army with the most troops here, not only to catch big fish, but also to support the east and west routes at any time.

The waterway is more straightforward:

With the cooperation of Yi Sun-sin, they swept the seas of Jeolla and Gyeongsang all the way.

After all, this meeting was a central theme—

With the crowd overpowering the few, Mount Tai is the top!

On the third day after the meeting, all the ministries set up their camps in an orderly manner and embarked on their respective offensive lines with full confidence.

The battle is very bold, it can be called aggressive, and I can't wait to eat all the Japanese troops from three directions.

During this period, Lu Li heard a small episode:

quarrel.

When it was clear that they were discussing in the big tent, everyone was in a good mood, showing the attitude of fighting the devils with one heart.

However…

The three admirals fought for one man: Quan Li, Li Chao's most capable army general and Marshal Du.

After all, every route can be supported by Li Chao troops, but the support must be strong or weak.

In the end, it was the host, King Li Ye of Joseon, who came up with an idea and assigned it to Liu Wei.

There is no doubt that this is a pull-off frame.

You must know that among the three coaches, Li Ye has an average relationship with Ma Gui, and Dong Yiyuan, he has never dealt with before, only Liu Wei...

During the Imjin Japanese turmoil, he did not go to the front to fight any major battles, so he could only be more active in the rear, for example:

Openly and secretly mocked Li Rusong for being cowardly.

In this way, he gained a good impression from the monarchs and ministers of the Li Chao who were anxious to restore lost ground.

It's not difficult to understand Li Ying's side-tracking right now. Anyway, Lu Li didn't really care, he was just worried about two things.

First, how many soldiers did Hideyoshi old monkey recruit from the country? At this point, if he does not retreat, it must be relied on, and the war potential of the Japanese country has not been completely drained.

Second, will the three admirals on land blame each other?

Regardless of their high fighting spirit now, in the original history, they were still hesitant after encountering tough battles.

The West Route Army is the weakest link among the three routes, and the main force is the Sichuan Army, all of which were saved by Liu Qi himself, which is different from Dong Yiyuan, the powerful Central Route Army.

The old general's soldiers were all exhausted, and he did not feel distressed, because those were mixed troops, and the soldiers came from all over the world.

Out of this mentality, Liu Wei wrote to Dong Yiyuan, asking him to quickly put pressure on the middle lane and not allow himself to face the enemy on both sides.

A series of chain reactions came down, forming an embarrassing situation:

Said to be so angry, but when he arrived at the scheduled preparation area, he did not trust the other party, afraid that the "good brother" would put the enemy who should have been solved by the other party on his side.

which is:

Ma Gui stood still on the east road, watching the progress of the middle road; Dong Yiyuan watched the progress of the west road on the middle road; Liu Qi was on the west road, waiting for a breakthrough in the middle road.

An infinite loop is formed.

"Forget it, there must be external factors in Jieshi to make them move again."

Above Jieshan, Lu Li retracted his gaze. He was in a very poor state. He was arranged to go to sea and lead the way. There was no need to worry about it.

Yang Hao and Xing Jie had to come to the overall battle situation.

evening.

The navy, who had planned to leave in the afternoon, temporarily decided to stay for three more days to receive the warm hospitality from Li Ye.

Chen Lin, Deng Zilong, Wu Guang, Liang Tianyin, Li Tianchang and other generals of the Ming Dynasty navy were all newcomers. As the host, he must win over them and test their fighting spirit.

In addition, although Lu Li does not have the name of an admiral, he has the reality of an admiral. Therefore, Li Ye must be trying to measure the material resources of the peninsula to please him.

One thing to say, if you count the generals who have aided the DPRK over the years, and choose the one Li Ye admires, appreciates, and admires the most, it will undoubtedly be Lu Li.

[If a thief comes, it's just a decisive battle]

What Lu Li said when he set out on the expedition to Nanyuan, Li Chao Wenwu has never forgotten, and sometimes still reverberates in his ears.

What Lu Li did, and the results he achieved, all confirmed that this statement was true.

The last time, Li Ying ordered the royal painter to come to the military camp to paint a full-body portrait of him, saying that he would be worshipped from generation to generation.

The latter was naturally rejected by Lu Li sternly.

Divine Soldiers are always welcome.

However, Li Chao didn't have any good things in the first place. In addition to the years of war, the quality of the short knives presented can only be said to be unsatisfactory.

However, something is better than nothing, let's talk about it after the final battle.

In addition, Li Ye also complimented Chen Lin, and put all kinds of gold, silver, jewelry, and rare items on a plate.

Chen Lin turned out to be uncharacteristically, not wanting any gifts, but only asking for combat supplies such as gunpowder. Not only that, he also generously said:

If the Japanese pirates did not surrender, they would not return to China.

When other generals heard the words, they also refused the reward and spit out all kinds of rhetoric.

When Li Chao Wenwu heard this, the group became excited and frequently went to the Ming army to make a toast.

As a result, extremes must be reversed...

After eating and drinking enough, everyone went out for a walk, saying that they were looking at the scenery and chatting. Just after leaving the city, they came to a place called Qingpoye.

Suddenly, there were bursts of shrill screams in the distance, and the North Korean monarch and ministers, Lu Li, Chen Lin, etc. came over and looked at them, dumbfounded.

A Li Dynasty official named Li Shanggui was being abused—

The rope was tied around his neck, dragging it around like a dog on the ground, and on the other end of the rope was General Daming.

Looking at the level of armor, Lu Li felt like a boss.

"Master Chief Soldier, forgive your sins..."

Before he could ask which movie this guy was from, Chen Lin took the initiative to plead guilty.

It is true that it is not the first time that a general of the Ming Dynasty has abused an official of the Li Dynasty, but he did so in front of the king...

Slap in the face, too slap in the face.

Not long ago, the host and guests were enjoying themselves, and the atmosphere soon froze. Lu Li frowned and thought about how to deal with this general...

On the side, Chen Lin also felt that it was not suitable, but he wanted to protect the calf, after all, the evildoer was his own descendant.

As a result, Chen Lin yelled at his subordinates to stop quickly, and tied his hands a few times in public and kicked him away.

Immediately afterwards, he pleaded guilty to Li Ying.

This matter can be big or small, Lu Li is the chief official who came by air, and Chen Lin is really on the road, and he has given generous gifts early.

His eyes fell on Li Ye and several ministers.

They looked at each other, not knowing what to say, so they turned around, pretending they didn't see it, and casually found a topic to talk about.

As soon as this happened, the interest of both sides was wiped out, and they exchanged a few words before dissipating.

On Li Chao's side, after returning to the palace, the first thing he did was to inquire about Chen Lin's path.

At noon the next day, the news came.

This General Chen is known for his fiery temper and brutal character. Once he is slandered, he dares to do anything, and the soldiers raised by such people can imagine the virtues—

On the way to lead the troops north, they passed through Shanhaiguan. Due to the weather, the time for food allocation was delayed for two days.

Mutiny in disguise!

If it were placed in an ordinary year, it would definitely be a matter of losing his head, but after the troubles came to the court, Emperor Wanli and his cabinet ministers considered that the gathering of the navy was imminent, and it was not easy to punish them severely, so they just verbally appealed.

In addition, dispatched various ministries to join forces with Chen Lin quickly to suppress him.

And through the dictation of other generals, Lu Li also knew about this, and said helplessly:

"Chen Jiajun is not soft on his own people, let alone Li Chaoren."

"…"

The generals were silent in unison, and then said in unison:

"Only the commander-in-chief is leading the way."

The combined strength of this group of people is just enough to control Chen Lin, which is also the consideration of the court.

hard power.

Military exploits.

official title.

Lu Li was able to hold his head down.

Therefore, as long as he put in a little thought, Chen Lin would not dare to be presumptuous.

Day three.

After hurriedly eating lunch, after replenishing all kinds of baggage, the navy officially started.

Of course, after that incident, Lu Li and Chen Lin had no face to stay.

Watching the fleet go away, Liu Chenglong, an important official of the Li Dynasty, had a face ashes as he sighed.

"This time it's a big trouble, UU read www.uukanshu.com such arrogant soldiers go to Yi Sun-sin's camp, and they will definitely ride on his head and shit.

If Yi Sun-shin resists, the two naval forces will be in strife, and they will be defeated without a fight; "

The civil servants shook their heads in silence.

"With Lu Zongbing's ability, it must be an easy task to control this evil dragon."

Li Ye opened his mouth, as if he was comforting himself, and at the same time as if he really thought so.

However, Chen Lin couldn't hear the whispers of Li Chaowen and Wu behind him. He probably knew it and wouldn't care.

Under the leadership of Lu Li, the fleet that swept across East Asia left Seoul and headed to Gujindao.

This is the place where Yi Sun-sin cultivated and trained his troops, and was also the base camp for fighting against the Japanese naval forces.

Since there were no enemies, and there were sea breezes and tides, the fleet successfully arrived at the sea area where Gujindao was located in less than half a month.

From a distance, Yi Sun-sin, who received the news, led all the navy troops under his command to greet him in line, and put down wild game and wine, waiting for the arrival of the Ming army.
