Chapter 231: Reinforcements Arrive

Although the Korean soldiers were led by their respective officers, the counterattack wanted to drive the Qing soldiers off the city.

But these Qing soldiers who took the lead in attacking the city head were mostly elite vest soldiers of the Qing army, with extraordinary skills, and after a slight delay, more Qing soldiers climbed up, and slowly the Qing soldiers gathered into a small flow of people on the city wall.

Seeing this situation, the face of the Korean lord Li Qi turned pale, and the bravery of the Qing army and the continuous death of Korean soldiers made him almost fall into despair.

"Oh my God, this is the day that will destroy my North Korea!" Li Qi said with tears streaming down his face.

"Your Highness, there is no need to be like this, there is a saying in the Celestial Empire, it is good to stay in the green mountains without fear of no firewood. North Korea can't live without you! Concubine Xian took out a handkerchief and persuaded Li Liang while wiping her tears.

The leader of the guards next to him also persuaded: "Your Highness, Concubine Xian, let's escort you out!" ”

Looking at the overwhelming Qing army under the city, Li Qi said miserably: "It's too late, we can't rush out." Even if he didn't know how to fight, he knew that Namhansanseong wouldn't be able to defend it for long.

While the city was in a state of panic, there were suddenly several trumpets from the west, and from the city walls you could see another force coming from a far west.

"Are the Tartars coming for reinforcements again?" The desperate Li Qi laughed miserably, but the current situation is already bad and can't be worse, even if the Qing soldiers come to reinforce the army, how bad can it be.

At this moment, a soldier ran from the city wall, and I saw him running to Li Liang and kneeling down on one knee, with irrepressible ecstasy in his tone, "Your Majesty, we are saved, the Ming army is coming, our reinforcements have arrived!" ”

"What? Reinforcements have arrived! ”

The sudden surprise made Li Liang feel dizzy in his head, and his body was about to fall after shaking for a while, but the virtuous concubine on the side hurriedly supported him to help him stabilize his figure.

Li Qi stabilized his figure, swallowed his saliva vigorously, and asked eagerly, "Are you sure it's the Ming army?" From which direction did the reinforcements of the Ming army come from? How many people came? ”

"General Li Shibai instructed the small ones, that army is under the banner of the Ming army, although I can't see it clearly, but there should be four or five thousand people, they are now coming from the direction of Incheon."

"Good, good!" Li Liang said three good words in a row, and he was overjoyed, and immediately said to the guards beside him: "Tell everyone immediately that our reinforcements have arrived, everyone work hard, and immediately drive the Qing soldiers off the city wall!" ”

Although there are not many people of four or five thousand, maybe they are the vanguard, Li Qi thought optimistically.

"Yes!" After learning of the arrival of reinforcements, the Korean soldiers, who had been defeated and retreated under the attack of the Qing army, suddenly gained great courage and began to launch a counterattack against the Qing army under the leadership of the officer.

Jiala, who was in charge of the guard, also reported the news that Amin and the Ming army had arrived at the first time.

The horizontal flesh on Amin's face trembled, and he said in a muffled voice: "Hmph, it's really not the right time to come, if I come half an hour late, I can capture this city." ”

However, as a general of the Qing army, he naturally will not be affected by his own emotions.

He believed that the strength of the Ming army was inferior to his own, and he would inevitably enter the city to assist the Korean army in defending Namhansan City. So the most important thing now is not to let those Ming troops enter the city to join those Koreans, otherwise it will be much more difficult for them to capture this city again.

Since the Ming army came to send it to death, then annihilate this Ming army first, after all, it is easier to fight in the field than to attack the city.

Thinking of this, Amin decisively ordered his own soldiers to send an order to Shuotuo, asking him to lead a Gushan 8,000 people to continue the siege, and he led more than 40,000 troops to encircle and suppress Wang Yue.

Amin is also too confident in the two Jiala, who are in charge of vigilance, and is also too confident in the combat effectiveness of the Qing army.

In addition to being on guard, these two Jiala also have the task of intercepting the Ming army and waiting for the arrival of the army. Amin thought that they could hold back the Ming army and wait until his own army arrived.

Two kilometers southwest of Namhansan Fortress, after more than an hour's march, the Cheonce Army was finally about to reach Namhansan Fortress.

The roads in North Korea cannot be compared with those in the capital, so the speed of the vehicles is restricted. In this rescue of Namhansanseong, the Cheonce Army dispatched more than 60 armored vehicles, more than 30 amphibious assault vehicles, and more than 30 fuel tankers. Most of the soldiers marched on foot, and after several months of five-kilometer cross-country training every day, good food was paid, and the physical fitness of the soldiers of the Tiance Army was very good.

Seeing that it was about to approach Namhansanseong, the drone was released for high-altitude reconnaissance.

Seeing that the enemy did not assemble, he waited for himself, but sent two Kala to arrange in this direction, and found that he was gathering a large army after his arrival.

Wang Yue decisively ordered the Feng Yuanshan Division of the Fifth Regiment in front of him to quickly defeat the two Jiala in front of him and clear the way for the army to advance.

Feng Yuanshan successfully completed the task of defending the city in the last war against the Qing Dynasty, and when he went to Korea to select and transfer troops this time, he pestered Wang Yue to grab the quota for the expedition.

After receiving Wang Yue's order, Feng Yuanshan ordered on the radio in the regimental command vehicle: "Each battalion is deployed from the front in order, with armored vehicles in front and infantry in the rear attacking and advancing. ”

According to their own weapons and equipment and the current situation of other armies in this era, the officers of the Tiance Army studied and formulated various tactics, and the infantry and tank coordination tactics were one of the most common tactics.

Therefore, the 5th Regiment of the Tiance Army changed its formation very quickly during the march, and quickly adjusted from a marching formation to an offensive formation. Twelve armored vehicles of the regiment took the lead, and the infantry advanced in a straggler line.

The two Jialazhangjing, who were in charge of guarding and intercepting the Tiance Army, were a little unimpressed when they first received the order:

"Erbeile, this is too careful, when will even a mere four or five thousand Ming troops be able to make us so jealous, do we still need the whole army to go out to destroy them?"

Another Jialazhangjing was more cautious: "I heard that these Ming troops are the Tiance army that killed 70,000 of us in the Ming Jing Division, let's be careful." ”

That Jia Lazhangjing said with some disapproval: "You don't know the combat effectiveness of the Ming army, I really don't know how they were defeated last year." You must have fallen for the enemy's tricks and failed, right? I was afraid that the emperor would condemn him, so I described how powerful this Tiance Army was. ”

The news of these two Jialama is still relatively well-informed, but the weapons described by others as being of the Tiance Army are beyond the scope of their cognition, and it is difficult to fully believe them with their brain capacity.

Soon they saw the legendary Tiance Army, which was indeed different from the army they had seen, in terms of clothing.

"What kind of car is that? Why don't I see the cow pulling the horse? The other Jialazhangjing asked curiously, and by the time he asked, the two armies were already rapidly approaching.
