Chapter Ninety-Eight. My nose hurts
Even in the middle of the night, the blazing fire still shines as bright as day, and those dilapidated houses have now become big fires, especially in the harbor, where the more than 30 boats ordered by Jin Zi and the three boats of Mao Jue have also become huge candles.
What is even worse is that the piles of warehouses near the port have been burned to the point of black smoke, and more than 20,000 stone of military rations, as well as weapons and armor and other materials have been burned.
I really couldn't stand the blow, Jin Zidian was weak legs, and simply fell off the horse, and a few guards next to him hurriedly supported him next to him, so he didn't break, looking at the fire, the green tendons on Mao Jue's head were also beating incessantly.
Didn't wait for the war! It's a hard slap in the face.
Mao Jue was stunned, there was already a quarrel at the other end, and he came back to his senses from his sluggish state, just as the city guard of Qunshan County, the guy surnamed Pu came over, Jin Zidian didn't say a word, and went up was a big slap in the face, knocking the person to the ground, and then rolled over with a few feet, while holding it and scolding in anger.
"Rubbish! Idiot! Why didn't you burn it with the military rations!"
"Lord Leader! Xiaguan can't help it, there are tens of thousands of Japanese robbers, Xiaguan's small soldiers in this group of mountain cities are weak, and Xiaguan is desperate to keep this city!! ”
was beaten and rolled all over the ground, and this Lord Park was shameless, crying and shouting for mercy.
"Lord Kim!"
I really couldn't stand it, Mao Jue also stepped forward, hugged Jin Zidian's arm and dragged him back, let the old man sit on the ground and gasp, holding his arm, Mao Jue asked solemnly.
"Master Park, when did the Japanese invade? How many troops are there? ”
was finally pulled up from the ground, and the official hat surnamed Pu fell off, and he hummed in despair.
"At about noon in the morning, there were two groups of Japanese invaders, one coming from Jeonju and the other from the sea! The dense subordinate officials don't know how many people there are, by the way, there are still cannons! And cavalry! It's scary to have skeletons on your waists! ”
"Are there really that many?"
At this time, he finally gasped for breath, and Jin Zidian was frightened again, shouting in horror. For fear that the old man had a heart attack, he pulled it over, and Mao Jue hurriedly grabbed his arm and dragged him aside.
"Lord Jin, rest assured, to transport tens of thousands of horses across the sea to attack, no hundreds of fleets can't do it, if there is such a huge fleet and troops, the current Japanese Kou would have established a force on the Japanese Island a long time ago, and they will not be beaten like lost dogs, and they will not be terrified at sea all day long."
"There's a thousand people, at most!"
There is also a little bit that Mao Jue didn't say, he saved face for Jin Zidian, according to Goryeo's braggart ability, cow dung can blow out flowers, this city guard is obviously scared to pee, it's strange not to brag.
Mao Jue is a person who knows the soldiers, and he is a professional, and his analysis can be regarded as making Jin Zidian's old heart fall back with a bang, but the old guy still smashed his shoes on the head of Master Park, who was kneeling on the ground and trembling.
"What are you doing? Don't hurry up and prepare barracks for the army! Get out!"
hurriedly kowtowed, and even rolled and climbed, and this Master Pu slipped away.
…………
The fire extinguished in the middle of the night, and the county town of Qunshan was still crowded with nearby villagers who had fled out, or that sentence, the soldiers and horses did not move, and the grain and grass went first! No matter how strong the army was without food, it could not fight, and more than 20,000 stone of military rations were robbed and half of it, and more than half of it was burned, and it had to be given relief to the victims.
Train hard at home, and have to save the physical strength of the soldiers when they are outside, so as to achieve the best combat results, and shrink the soldiers in the barracks, Mao Jue himself has a little time to spare, wandering around the low city wall.
"How strange!"
Just as he was lying on the battlements and talking down and looking down, a pleasant cry sounded in Mao Jue's ears.
"What's the matter? Girl? ”
This time, Su Yi was ruthlessly confined at home, followed her husband Mao Wenlong back to Phi Island, and then went to Iron Mountain, but Adriana was fed up with helping Mao Jue grow potatoes and tobacco leaves at home, anyway, these things have begun to get on the right track, showing a bunch of "Civil Engineer Certificate", "Battlefield Nurse Certificate", "Logistics Commander Certificate", this girl is one of the members of Mao Jue's pro-corps as she wished.
Listening to Mao Jue turn around and ask, this girl pointed down with her white tender fingers wrapped in cotton armor.
"Yesterday, Master Park emphasized that the Japanese army has artillery! But on this city wall, why is there not a single cannon mark? ”
Indeed, after the siege battle, the arrows stuck in the dilapidated rammed earth walls can be seen, the holes made by the firecrackers, and there are really no traces of cannonballs in the holes.
Not only that, but on the messy battlefield, the cavalry that Lord Park said did not leave a horse's hoof print.
But for this, Mao Jue didn't care too much about this, and waved his hand very lightly.
"The surname Pu brags! If you hadn't seen it, I guess he would have blown out a tank for you!"
"What is a tank? And the young master! If he was too frightened, he could have exaggerated the number of pirates, why did he have to propose that there were cannons and cavalry to exaggerate the strength of the pirates? Also, this time ......"
Before Adriana finished speaking, the rapid sound of bangs suddenly rang out violently, and someone in the military camp in the distance was shouting loudly about the enemy attack! His heart twitched suddenly, but Mao Jue's face was full of excitement, and he reached out and buckled the beaten helmet on Adeleena's head, and dragged her hand and hurriedly ran down the city wall.
In less than three minutes, the Tieshan pro-corps took the lead in setting up a military formation on the avenue, a pole of Mao characters and a pole of Ming characters and two large flames fluttering, twenty tiger squatting cannons, two red-clothed cannons were also retreated to the front, two wings, although Liu Chong did not come to train Xinding, but Shen Rong led the personal cavalry, still angry, restless war horses trampled on the horse's hooves.
Even Mao Jue himself was holding a flintlock pistol, eager to pace back and forth in the military formation.
Foreign monks will chant scriptures, it seems that Jin Zidian also thinks so, and the Li Chaodao soldiers have not been assembled, and he also took a few Goryeo swordsmen to Mao Jue's military town, looking into the distance with sweat in his head, and shouting in Mao Jue's ears worriedly.
"It's really here!"
"General Xiao Mao, are you sure! If not, let's withdraw to the city defenses, shall we? ”
It was really annoying to listen to it, Mao Jue simply waved his hand back.
"Lord Jin, you better hurry up and prepare the archer array! I'll leave it to me!"
was commanded by a young man, but Jin Zidian didn't have this consciousness at all, and nodded and said.
"Yes, yes! Old decay, let's go!"
At the head of the city, the people of the two logistics battalions looked forward with binoculars, almost into the firing range, Xiao Chunzi and another artillery sentry deputy personally shook the handle and lowered the angle of the gun body, the kraft paper wrapped fixed gunpowder cushion at the bottom, the dark and shiny lead ball shell stuffed through the cast iron muzzle, a head of thirty taels! Spurred on by the bounty, two artillery posts were personally lit by the cannonballs.
But at this juncture, at the head of the city behind him, Jin Zidian suddenly shouted loudly at the top of his throat, and turned his head in shock, Mao Jue seemed to hear him shouting his own people again!
Bang Dang! The knife slashed at the butt of the cannon, and the arquebus, which had burned to the hole of the cannon, fell dangerously, but the other cannon was too late, with a deafening roar, and more than half a meter of flame erupted.
…………
It was really an oolong, and it was actually the Taoist soldiers of Cao Julang and Li Shanhai, the soldiers of Quanzhou, who came to the whole state, and this cannon went down to hit the crowd, knocking over six or seven North Korean soldiers and horses, killing three and crippled one, fortunately it was a solid cannonball, if it was a shotgun or grape bullet, the casualties might be greater.
But this can't be blamed on Mao Jue, normally, even if it is a friendly army, they have to send envoys to communicate with each other before they converge, and he suddenly killed less than three or four miles away from Qunshan County silently, who knows if it was a sneak attack by the Japanese Invaders?
After more than a dozen messengers exchanged back and forth, the bigwigs of the two sides could be regarded as meeting in front of the battle, this Li Shanhai was actually quite young, less than forty years old in mid-thirties, wearing a black gauze hat and a green shirt, a little bit of a professor in ancient costumes, but at this time, it was an angry nose that was not a nose and a face was not a face, so he must shout angrily.
"Lord Jin, why are you firing at our army!"
Jin Zidian also didn't have a good temper, and roared in annoyance: "Lord Li! You are silent and suddenly come to the city, and you don't even send a messenger, who knows which way you are? Why are your troops not guarding the whole state, running to the mountains? ”
These words made the surnamed Li even more angry, and he shouted with his feet on the horse.
"Isn't it the military order issued by you, Lord Jin, who was besieged by the Japanese in Gunsan County, and you want to transfer troops and horses from all over the state to support?"
In an instant, Mao Jue and Jin Zidian's faces changed again, and after being stupid for a moment, Old Man Jin jumped off the horse and grabbed the hem of Li Shanhai's clothes suddenly.
"Return to the army Quanzhou immediately, you are fooled!"
…………
With the lesson of the last time, and the 5,000 soldiers of Li Shanhai's department, Kim Zidian left a member of his own trusted generals, and 2,000 men and horses guarded before they were mobilized to come to Gunshan County Zizhong, and the rest of the army was fast that day, and rushed straight to Jeonju, the capital of Jeolla Province, but this time, it was a step too late.
In the evening of the next day, after crossing Xiaoluo Mountain, the army arrived at the city of Quanzhou, leaving them with a mess, the city gate was open, the city head, the road, there were lodging corpses everywhere, there were soldiers, there were also civilians, a city wall had been shot like a hedgehog, half of the sky, the burning houses outside the city emitted billowing black smoke into the air.
The judge of the military department kicked the war horse in horror, and rushed into the city with hundreds of cavalry that were rare in the Korean army, holding the reins of the horse.
Let people lead the nose again!
