Street fighting has been the most brutal form of war since ancient times. Unlike shooting and firing artillery from afar, street fighting is often the stage when soldiers are consumed the fastest and the damage is greatest to the combatants.

With the breaching of several walls of Pyongyang City, the Japanese had to retreat into the city, trying to contain the attack of the Ming army through the difficult terrain.

But at this time, the Ming army has entered the mountains and rivers, and the momentum is like a bamboo, how can the Japanese invaders resist it?

During the battle, Li Rusong personally led his troops to attack the front line, and during the march, his war horse was hit by bullets flying all over the sky and died on the spot!

Li Rusong jumped off the dead horse, changed horses and fought again! As a result, the newly replaced war horse was not familiar, and he was frightened by the sound of gunfire, and fell into the trench with Li Rusong! Li Rusong carried the reins and Pegasus out of the pit and led the army to fight again!

Originally, these would-be robbers were quite proud, believing that they were good at using swords in hand-to-hand combat, and would definitely be able to gain the advantage of street fighting, until reinforcements arrived. As a result, the commander of the Ming army moved forward, and the three armies were killed, and soon the Japanese in the city were strongly suppressed and began to shrink sharply!

Among them, the tactics derived from Qi Jiguang and Qi Dudu played a great role, the infantry cavalry of the Ming Army opened the way with muskets, formed a formation, cooperated with each other, and a small unit cooperated very well, and the result was to strangle the city at a very fast speed.

These would-be robbers were brave, but they weren't stupid - they saw their companions rushing forward being held up with long weapons by the wolf hands in the opponent's small formation, and they were harvested one by one by the sword and shield men and spearmen behind them! The friendly troops who wanted to rush up behind were killed by the musketeers at the end of the formation!

Where is this battle, is it clearly a massacre, okay?

The Ming army set a fire in the city and evacuated the population at the same time. The Japanese who hid in the houses and archways were like rats that had been blown out, either rushing out and being exterminated, or fleeing to the east of the city in fear.

Under the frenzied dumping of the Ming army, these surviving Japanese robbers hid in the Lianguang Pavilion Cave in the east of the city, and another part of the Japanese Invaders, including Konishi Xingchang, fled into the Fengyue Pavilion Cave and waited for help.

However, although the battle situation tilted sharply in the direction of the Ming and Goryeo coalition forces, the fighting spirit in the hearts of the Japanese Kou had not completely collapsed. They still have one last glimmer of hope in their hearts - reinforcements!

There are three aspects of the expected reinforcements, one is the cavalry of the Songpu Town Xinsuo Department at the top of Peony Peak, hoping that they can break through the defense as soon as possible and go down the mountain to attack the back of the Ming army to help relieve the pressure on the middle part of the city.

Another aspect is that behind the Ming Army, there are more than 6,000 people from the Otomo Yoshitong Department stationed near Fengshan, who can come to reinforcements at any time.

And the last aspect, which is what Yukicho Konishi is looking forward to the most, is the strong support from the southeast, the main feather Shiba Hideyoshi!

What he didn't know, however, was that of the three reinforcements he was looking forward to, two of them were hopeless, and one was still waiting from afar, not knowing where to go from here.

Wu Weizhong, who attacked Mudantai, his troops were the Qi family army trained by Qi Dudu. The soldiers are well-trained, highly tactically literate, and at the same time extremely determined to fight, and are invincible in the battle against the Japanese Invaders!

Peony Terrace is easy to defend and difficult to attack, the Japanese bullets on it rained down, and the Qi family army that was shot fell to the ground with casualties. But the defending Japanese invaders couldn't stop the desperate fighting of the Qi family army after all, and they retreated one after another.

Wu Weizhong, who was charging forward, was like a god, and was attacked by the Japanese Kou! He was shot in the chest by a musket pellet from a Japanese pirate, and he immediately bled profusely!

But Wu Weizhong covered his wounds, still fought to the death, leaned his seriously injured body on the stone in front of the battle, and continued to wave his sword to command the soldiers to fight!

When the Qi family army under his command saw that the master was like this, he even forgot to die and went all out! Dozens of warriors of the Sharp Knife Battalion threw down their swords, and one of them held two shields and formed a humanoid city wall to rush forward! During this period, projectiles continued to hit the soldiers through the gaps in the shields, but the people behind still fought to the death, and under the cover of friendly firearms, they went straight to the city of the Japanese Invaders!

The friendly troops behind roared and rushed up the not high city wall, a bloody battle, the Japanese were terrified, and those who lost their armor wanted to abandon Peony Peak and retreat to Pyongyang City.

But how could the red-eyed Qi family army be so good at giving up! A crazy strangulation unfolded at the southern foothills of Peony Peak City!

The frightened widows fought and left, and the Qi family's ranks, who swore to kill the enemy, pursued at the end! The corpses of the pirates stretched all the way from the top of the Peony Peak to the ordinary riverside, and the lucky survivors threw down their weapons and crossed the river with all their might, and a small part of them hid in the city of Pyongyang from the east gate, looking back in horror in the direction of the Peony Peak, as if they had experienced the baptism of hell on earth!

In this battle, there were no prisoners......

And the commanding heights outside the city were also firmly occupied by Wu Weizhong's troops, and the first support army of Konishi Yukicho collapsed!

It is impossible for the reinforcements of the second support army, Yushiba Hideyoshi, to come, because the distress team sent by Konishi Yukichi has been intercepted by me and Ye Sizhong, and Hashiba Hideyoshi, who is far away in Wangjing, is still thinking about how to suppress Shibata Katsuya at this time, and he has no idea that Pyongyang City is about to change hands!

I also made arrangements for reinforcements from the direction of Fengshan for the Third Support Army. I asked Ye Sizhong to select a hundred cavalry with the best horsemanship, and accompanied by the best twenty musketeers under the hot command, and went straight to the small pine forest south of Fengshan!

In the pine forest, the hundred horsemen cut off branches and tied them to the tails of their horses!

The whole small pine forest was full of smoke and dust, as if a large army of cavalry was hiding in it!

Otomo Yoshito, who was stationed on Fengshan, did not dare to advance, so he could only send a team of scouts to investigate first!

As a result, these scouts have become targets for elite musketeers hiding in the woods! Under my usual earnest teaching of "waiting quietly, getting closer and then fighting", these musketeers fully inherited my tactical ideas of "fast, accurate, yin, and ruthless", so that Otomo Yoshitomi's scouts even had a very scarce chance to escape!

Eventually, the scouts who fled back to Fengshan reported to Otomo Yoshitomo in horror that there were at least a few thousand well-trained cavalry in the forest, and they were afraid that there were other ambushes besides!

Otomo Yoshitomo was shocked, and at the same time looked at the billowing smoke rising from the direction of Pyongyang, and very wisely chose to defend Fengshan and wait for reinforcements!

In this way, the Japanese reinforcements in the city have been cut off, and their reinforcements cannot wait for the left or right, so they can only be gradually compressed under Li Rusong's fire attack, and finally the Japanese outside are cleared out, and the rest are all hiding in the earth caves in the east of the city.

How could Li Rusong give up such an offensive opportunity? He ordered his officers and men to collect firewood and grass, demolish destroyed houses, and gather timber under the earth caves to prepare for a fire attack.

It was impossible for the Japanese to sit still and wait for death, and when they saw the Ming army rushing closer, they fired a volley with arquebuses! As soon as a round of gunfire rang out, the soldiers of the Ming Army fell in a large platoon, and they rushed several times but could not rush forward.

Li Rusong was furious when he saw this, and personally raised his knife and stepped forward to command! As a result, when Governor Konishi saw Li Rusong appear, he ordered the musketeers to concentrate their fire on his side!

Li Rusong's mount was shot again, knocking him to the ground all at once! The generals behind him were shocked when they saw this, and they all held shields and risked death to rescue Li Rusong.

At this point, the two sides started a tug-of-war along the boundary of 100 meters west of the cave. Konishi Yukinaga's remnants were defeated and unable to fight back; And Li Rusong also saw that the Ming army under his command suffered huge casualties, coupled with the current situation is anxious, it is difficult to capture the earthen kiln for a while, and the soldiers are already hungry, so he ordered to suspend the attack and make a fire.

He was waiting for darkness, but he was worried that if he delayed too long, he would wait for reinforcements from the Japanese invaders. The mood was complicated, so he convened the generals to discuss.

Li Rumei, who was in charge of intelligence, reported the external situation to Li Rusong, and Li Rusong felt a little calmer. He already knew that it was difficult for the enemy's reinforcements to arrive for a while, and he also knew that Ye Sizhong and I had already laid a net in the east of the city and Datong Jiangdong, so a line of thought of indulgence in lust gradually formed in his heart!

After discussing the details, Li Rusong immediately ordered it to begin. While the generals were sharpening their knives, rectifying the wounded, and preparing for the final battle, he sent Zhang Dashan as a messenger to give an ultimatum to Governor Konishi!

Zhang Dashan was brave and resourceful, and he knew the language of the Japanese Kou, and soon walked to the cave where the envoy was located.

At this time, Governor Konishi had completely lost the arrogance he had when facing the Goryeo army before, and listened to Li Rusong's meaning explained by Zhang Dashan without saying a word.

Zhang Dashan said that our commander made it clear: With my troops, it is enough to annihilate you in one fell swoop. But I can't bear to kill people, so I'll let you live. If you lead the leaders of the Governor Konishi to surrender to me in the future, I will be rewarded.

Konishi Yukichang said in his heart, if I really go to your Fangyuan Gate, I am afraid that my head will be hung in the city tonight as a banner for you to recruit soldiers!

But the situation is such that he can't make a mistake, so he can only pretend to reply to the request in a low voice: We are willing to withdraw from the army, please do not intercept the back.

This looks like a surrender to Li Rusong, but in fact, he wants to sit on the ground and repay the money under several unfavorable circumstances, and strive to preserve his strength to the greatest extent.

Li Rusong knew that if he did not agree to Governor Konishi's request, he would definitely not surrender according to the way of thinking of the Japanese Invaders, but would definitely break through desperately.

Considering that the emperor had already prepared an ambush on the retreat road, he had just sent several teams of men and horses to strengthen the reinforcements, and it was impossible for Governor Konishi to go out unscathed, so he agreed to the Japanese envoys who came with Zhang Dashan, and agreed to withdraw the Goryeo Heian soldiers who had been ambushed on the front line of Zhonghe in advance, Li Yi, and let Governor Konishi withdraw his troops.

At the same time, Zu Chengxun, Ge Fengxia and others of the Ming army had already led their troops to sneak out of the city and ambushed the waterside road, just waiting for the Japanese to retreat to take advantage of the situation to cover up.

President Konishi was overjoyed to receive the reply. According to his guess, Li Rusong must have been worried about the arrival of his own reinforcements, so he wished he had left the city earlier!

Therefore, Konishi Yukinaga did not doubt him, and began to command the army to retreat eastward, preparing to leave the city from the Datong Gate and Changqing Gate in the east of the city, cross the Datong River, flee for his life in the direction of Longshan, and then retreat to Wangjing in the southeast.

There are three pontoon bridges on the Datong River, which have been frozen in winter and are as hard as iron. After leaving the city, the Japanese were still a little worried that there would be ambushes at first, but the front team had already crossed the pontoon bridge and was still safe and sound.

As a result, when he was halfway across the river, Zu Chengxun, Ge Feng and others who were in ambush around him began to order artillery to bombard the pontoon bridge! The ice overturned, the bridge broke and people died, and many Japanese fell into the icy Datong River and drowned, but more Japanese desperately crossed the river and fled east with Konishi Yukinaga!

Li Rusong, who was behind him, saw that Governor Konishi had retreated, so he led the army to storm the cave! The tail after the interruption of the cave was quickly eliminated, and the Ming army completely occupied the city of Pyongyang!

The Ming army, which was pursuing at the tail of the tail, continued to drive the fleeing Konishi Nagaxing Department in front, beheading more than 300 people along the way! The fleeing Japanese were so hungry that they rushed into people's homes or threw themselves into temples in search of food, and were beheaded by local officers and soldiers for more than 100 levels.

In this way, Konishi Nagayuki's department was as anxious as a lost dog, busy like a fish that slipped through the net, and ran to the vicinity of Fengshan to answer for the Otomo Yoshitong Department, and then he took a breath and put his heart back in his stomach.

Little did they know that another catastrophe was behind them, silently smiling at them with death......
