The battle lasted for about two hours, and a small number of Guards soldiers finally went through a round of transformation, and the soldiers who left the field hurriedly drank water and ate, and rested urgently for a while, ready to go on the next battle.

Most of the artillery had already taken up their guns and began to fight the Japanese like infantry. Because there were already Japanese troops who had climbed near the artillery and wanted to seize the artillery.

At present, the biggest problem of the Ming army is that there are too few people fighting, and the Japanese soldiers are constantly climbing up, and what climbs up is a new force, and against the Ming army, which has been fighting for nearly two hours, the physical strength is very superior. If the Ming army hadn't thrown them off with weapons and equipment, it would have failed long ago.

Seeing this, Zhang Xinchen said in a hurry: "Follow me to the left, and follow behind." He took the lead and rushed to the left, killing the Japanese soldiers while continuing to move to the left. This drove the whole unit to move to the left, and the replacement soldiers behind followed suit, so that the whole soldier facing the enemy army was changed.

Seeing that this method worked, Zhang Xinchen was overjoyed, and first let the tired soldiers on the left go down to the city to rest, and then run down the city to the right, and let the soldiers from other city walls stand by on the right. As soon as the soldiers in the battle showed fatigue, they ordered to rush to the left and let the fresh army join the battle.

After doing this twice, the physical superiority of the Japanese army no longer existed, and the Ming army had the advantage in all aspects. The characteristics of the large number of Japanese troops could not be transformed into actual combat strength at all, and the Ming army became more and more brave after the rotation, and killed the Japanese troops who were about to climb the city on the ladder and under the city wall by virtue of their geographical advantages.

Yang Guanggao had already gathered 5,000 men and was ready to pursue the enemy as he fled. However, although the Japanese army was at a disadvantage, they had no idea of escaping. And letting soldiers out of the city to deal with the Japanese is obviously not a good way. So Yang Guanggao could only let the soldiers wait inside the city gate until the evening.

It was almost dark, and the Japanese army left at least a few thousand corpses under the castle, but Tokugawa Iemitsu did not order the troops to retreat, so the Japanese army continued to die one after another, and also caused a small number of casualties to the Guards.

Finally, it was completely dark, and the battle could no longer continue, so both sides had no choice but to withdraw their troops. It's good that the Ming army has a strong city to rely on, but the Japanese army camped two miles away is more miserable, such a cold day, the tent has almost no effect, but the Japanese army actually persevered, but it is really powerful.

But the next morning, the warmly dressed Guards suddenly dispatched 10,000 infantry, rushed directly to the Japanese camp with firearms, and after firing the firecrackers, they began to charge at the simple camp.

The Japanese soldiers guarding were already shivering with cold, and when the Ming army's attack came, they couldn't afford to hold their weapons, so soon the Ming army rushed into the camp, holding bayonets, and it was a knife when they saw someone.

At this time, people are the most sleepy and the worst spirits, and many Japanese people have not even put on their clothes, and they have become ghosts under the knife. A few people were awakened by the sound of firecrackers, and they went to the western sky in a daze.

For a while, there was a howl of ghosts and wolves in the Japanese army camp, and the brave warriors of yesterday's day had long since flown away, and in front of the bayonets, there were many people who knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

The Guards kept moving forward, quickly splitting the entire camp in half, and then began to sweep on both sides. The surrendered Japanese troops were quickly gathered and escorted outside the camp by the Guards soldiers into simple squads and sent to Kagoshima Castle.

Yang Guanggao was the commander of this sneak attack, and he constantly issued orders to cut off the retreat of the Japanese troops and keep all of them at Kagoshima Castle.

After a while, Zhang Xinchen ran over with a happy face: "Division commander, I caught a big one, I heard that it was their general Zhengyi." ”

Yang Guanggao asked eagerly, "Did you ask clearly?" Is it really Tokugawa Iemitsu? "I can't help but be nervous, if he really catches Tokugawa Iemitsu, then it will be a lot of fun. Tokugawa Iemitsu was the shogun of the Shogunate and the head of the shogunate. Although the real power of the shogunate was in the hands of Tokugawa Hidetada, the imperial office of Laozi, his name as the shogun of the Shogun was very useful in Japan.

Zhang Xinchen said: "I asked clearly, what is the name of Tokugawa Iemitsu, and it is their general of Zhengyi." ”

Yang Guanggao said: "You personally escorted him to the city with all his tails and beards, and treated him with courtesy." Brigadier Zhang, you've done a great job. ”

Zhang Xinchen was overjoyed and immediately ran to personally escort Tokugawa Iemitsu to Kagoshima Castle, where he was placed under house arrest in the castle lord's mansion.

At this time, the battle outside the city was basically over, and more than 12,000 Japanese soldiers were captured in this battle, more than 3,000 were killed, and about 10,000 escaped. In two days, more than 22,000 Japanese troops were captured and annihilated.

The Guards cleaned up the battlefield and picked up a large number of weapons and armor. As for the wounded soldiers, if they were lightly wounded and willing to surrender, they were taken into prisoner camps, and those who were seriously wounded or did not surrender were directly killed.

The Guards lost more than 300 deaths, 30 seriously wounded and 650 lightly wounded. This kind of exchange ratio has hit a new high, and Yang Guanggao said: "Back then, in the southwest Lu Division, they didn't have such a disparity in battle loss ratio. ”

He and Mitsutsura took the interpreter to Tokugawa Iemitsu's escort office. As soon as Tokugawa Iemitsu saw them, he said, "Please put me back, I can agree to your terms." ”

Yang Guanggao said with a smile: "That's good, the standard Beijing official dialect, where did you learn it, it's quite smooth." ”

Tokugawa Iemitsu stopped talking, just looked at the three of them in a daze. Yang Guanggao said: "We can't make the decision about letting you go back, but we will soon send someone to meet your father and negotiate some conditions with him." If he agrees, you can of course go back. ”

Tokugawa Iemitsu sat down on the seat, thinking of his father's strictness, although he knew that his father would not be a new general soon, and his father should not set up another general, but this capture would become the biggest stain in his life, and it would never be washed away.

After Ma Shiying received the news from Yang Guanggao, he couldn't believe that the Guards had captured the shogunate's general Zhengyi. He quickly led people to Kagoshima Castle and met with Tokugawa Iemitsu.

Because he knew that Tokugawa Iemitsu could speak Chinese, he and Yang Guanggao were the only two people who entered.

Ma Shiying saluted Tokugawa Iemitsu after meeting, and Tokugawa Iemitsu smiled: "Qincha is very polite this time." ”

Ma Shiying smiled: "General, I have always been very polite, but I will only be polite to polite people." ”

Tokugawa Iemitsu didn't want to have a verbal dispute with him, so he asked directly: "You have a saying in China, called strange goods, and it seems that the Qincha regards this general as a strange goods." ”

All kinds of requests, thank you for your support!
