In the next few days, the Ming army basically did nothing except send scouts to constantly explore the terrain. Having fought on the battlefield for so long in the past, what was needed was repair, not continuing the rapid march.

Compared with the contest with the Japanese invaders, it was the march and supply that became a big problem for the Ming army.

However, both sides know that although everyone has not made any moves, it is not that they have stopped fighting, but they are holding back their strength, ready to give each other a hard blow, which is the calm before the big war.

Above the sea, a huge fleet broke through the wind and waves and continued to advance.

This warship was none other than the royal sailors of the Ming Dynasty.

On top of the flagship, Qi Jin stood on the ship expressionlessly, with a telescope hanging around his neck. Glancing at Yu Dayou who came over, Qi Jin opened his mouth and asked, "Is there any information coming?" ”

Yu Dayou nodded: "That Yi Sunsin of North Korea has been defeated and retreated." ”

A few days ago, information came that Yi Sun-sin of North Korea had led people to attack Busan, trying to cut off the retreat of the Japanese invaders. After the Japanese took Tsushima Island, they landed at Busan, which was the base from which the Japanese invaded Korea.

Once Busan is lost, then all the Japanese will be buried in Korea, and it will be impossible to retreat.

"This Yi Sunsin's vision is good, aiming at Busan, but his combat power is not very good." Yu Dayou shook his head and said, taking out a map: "Are we still acting according to the original plan?" ”

Qi Jin nodded: "Do you just want to fight with the Japanese Sailors?" ”

Whether it was Qi Jin or Yu Dayou, none of them took the Japanese sailors in their eyes, this Korean battle was a great merit, how could two people only make such a contribution.

"Let's take this place first!" Qi Jin said, pointing to an island.

"This is Jeju Island!" Yu Dayou said: "After taking Jeju Island, we will have a stable base, and our fleet will have a reliable supply point." ”

"After taking Jeju Island, we can go straight to Tsushima Island."

"When the time comes, the Japanese Marines must fight us head-on, otherwise once Tsushima Island is blockaded by us, their supply lines will be cut off. We wiped out the Japanese sailors on Tsushima and then occupied Tsushima. ”

"After taking Tsushima, we can attack Busan."

"Once we take Busan, we will successfully cut off the retreat of the Japanese invaders, and at the same time, we will be able to follow the route of the Japanese invaders to attack North Korea all the way and directly hit Gyeonggi Province in North Korea."

Yu Dayou looked at Qi Jin and said with a smile: "When the time comes, we will be able to make great achievements." ”

For this method of warfare, the two of them are very confident, because there are 80,000 royal sailors in the Ming Dynasty, and of course these people are not all ships and guns, most of them are marines.

They were well-equipped and well-trained, and their backbone was 10,000 of the 30,000 Qi family troops that Qi Jiguang had trained in Jiliao.

With these people in hand, Qi Jin is not a vain at all, so he is ready to make a big move.

After the two of them finished discussing, Qi Jin said: "Send the order to go straight to Jeju Island, if you encounter a warship of the Japanese on the way, clear them all, we are in a hurry." ”

As the order was passed down, the ships of the sailors began to move at full speed, and the troop carriers behind followed closely behind.

Jeju Island, the largest island in the south of Korea, from the Yuan Dynasty to the 19th year of the Yuan Dynasty, Japan invaded the coast of Goryeo, and at the request of the King of Goryeo, the Yuan army was stationed in Jinju.

In the second year, the Yuan Dynasty officially set up the province of Zhongshu in Goryeo, with the king of Goryeo and the general of the Yuan army, Atahae, leading the province. Until the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Goryeo's internal and foreign affairs were under the control of the Yuan Dynasty.

The Korean Peninsula was all under the control of the Yuan Dynasty, not to mention Jeju Island in the southern part of the Korean Peninsula. Some of the employees under the Damna Military and Civilian Administration of the Yuan Dynasty were residents of the island or people from Goryeo with the approval of the Yuan Dynasty government of China, but they were still subordinate to the Yuan Dynasty government, and the Korean government had no authority to administer them.

In the early days of the Joseon Dynasty, it was called Jeju Mu, and decades after the Yuan Dynasty was overthrown by the Ming Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty Tamna Military and Civil Administration surrendered to Korea, and Jeju Island became Korean land.

The Ming fleet was very large, and when it entered Jeju Island, it basically encountered little resistance.

After the Ming army entered Jeju Island, it immediately began to station troops on Jeju Island, and then the fleet set off and went straight to Tsushima Island. Obviously, Tsushima Island was prepared for a war, and Qi Jin and Yu Dayou were very confident.

At this time, on Tsushima Island, the first nine ghosts of the Japanese Navy Division, Yoshitaka also received a battle report.

"Osumi Shou, the sailor of Daming is here!" Fujitang Gaohu stood in front of the Nine Ghosts Jialong, and said with an anxious face: "There are two hundred warships of the Ming army, and now they are all coming towards Tsushima Island. ”

Nine Ghost Jialong glanced at Fujitang Gaohu, and said with a sneer: "Daming's sailor? ”

"The information that just came over yesterday is that the battle in front is unfavorable, the first army, the second army and the third army have all been hit hard, and now the Daming Water Division is here again, this is to fight with us!"

"Now His Excellency Ukita Hideya has assembled a large army in Gyeonggi Province in North Korea and is preparing for a decisive battle with the Ming Dynasty."

"Tsushima will never allow any mistakes, immediately send someone to the general to ask for support, and we will lead the fleet to fight the Ming army."

Fujitang Gaohu nodded, and then turned around and went out to prepare, what the Nine Ghosts Jialong said was very right, no matter what, there must be no accident on Tsushima Island, and no matter what, the sailors of the Ming Dynasty must be repelled.

In fact, the Nine Ghosts Jialong has already wavered in his heart for this battle.

The war against Korea went well, and in just one month, the three capitals of Korea were defeated, the Korean prince was captured, the Korean king fled in a hurry, and the whole of Korea immediately became the territory of his own people.

However, since the Ming army entered the battlefield, the situation in Korea has taken a sharp turn for the worse.

The loss of Hamgyong-do, Pyongan-do, and Hwanghae-do, and the two capitals of Kaesong and Pyongyang were all defeated by the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming troops were directed at Gyeonggi-do, and a major battle was imminent.

None of this is the key, the point is that the first, second, and third armies suffered heavy losses.

The ability of Konishi Yukinaga and Kato Kiyomasa, Fujido Takatora is very clear, and their battle losses are so large, which naturally shows the strength of the Ming army. Konishi Yukinaga and Kuroda Nagamasa were captured, and Kato Kiyomasa and Nabeshima Naoshige were killed in battle, which shows the fierceness of the Ming army.

If the sailors of the Ming army were also so strong, then what to do?

Once Tsushima is lost, then the army that enters North Korea will only have a dead end, and it is impossible for reinforcements to enter, which Fujido Takatora knows very well, and at this time, he can only pray that the sailors of the Ming Dynasty will be the same as the sailors of North Korea.

The fleet was quickly assembled, and the Nine Ghosts Jialong was also a battle-hardened battle, so naturally he would not make the mistake of underestimating the enemy, especially in such an important battle, before knowing the combat power of the Daming Water Division, it was not too prudent, so the Nine Ghosts Jialong gathered more than three hundred warships.
