The small force that appeared was actually a decoy released by Ran Wu.

Although there was all kinds of intelligence support before, it was proved that the Fusang army had swelled up under the deliberate release of the Ming army, and restored their arrogant virtue.

But it's always safer to verify. That's why these troops are sent as bait. This time, the decoy mission was carried out by the National Guard, which belonged to the second-line troops, and the 50,000 elite troops of the Wehrmacht were the mainstays and would not be dispatched easily.

The National Guard has not been established for a long time, and it has hardly fought any decent battles, so this time Ran Wu also has the intention of using the Fuso army to train soldiers.

This army that appeared in front of the Fuso people this time was nothing more than a regiment of the National Guard, and their task was to lure the Fuso pursuers to the designated ambush area, where the main army naturally awaited them.

Yoshino Taro took 3,000 men and horses to chase after this small army of the Ming Dynasty who came to spy on him. Rao is like this, he feels a little too much. If it weren't for the advice of his subordinates, he even felt that he could completely annihilate this Ming army with only five hundred Fusang warriors.

The Yoshinoya sent people to participate in the rampant Wako along the south coast of the Ming River, and at that time, the thousands of Ming officials and soldiers were chased and killed by dozens or even a dozen Fuso samurai, but Yoshino was clear, so he always despised and despised the Ming officials and soldiers in his heart, thinking that they were vulnerable.

As for what Tokugawa Hidetada said, he didn't take it to heart at all.

Taro Yoshino chased after him with his army of three thousand, and soon spotted the voyeuristic army of the daimyo.

The other party looked like there were more than 1,000 people, and they were obviously a little panicked when they saw them, but unexpectedly, they didn't run away immediately, but began to attack them.

At first, Yoshino was startled by the dense bullets, but after he lay on the ground and watched for a long time, he found that the first person did not die at all, and most of those bullets seemed to fly to the unknown place, and there were no people who hit him at all.

Yoshino was excited by this discovery, and he drew the large sword at his waist and whirreted it as he waved it for the army to launch a counterattack.

The samurai of the Yoshino family also screamed one by one, waving the katana in their hands and rushing towards the Ming army.

Behind him was Yoshinoya's only musket team, all armed with breech-loading rifled guns purchased from English merchants, and numbered more than 300 people.

This kind of gun has a long range, good accuracy, and strong penetrating power, and has made great contributions in the process of Tokugawa Hidetada's unification of Fuso.

As a result, many daimyo also spent heavy armor to buy this musket and ammunition to form musket teams.

The 150,000 Fuso troops that invaded Korea this time, including more than 10,000 musketeers, were all equipped with such rear-loading rifled guns, which was also a major reliance on Tokugawa Hidetada's confidence in the success of his invasion of Korea.

The musketeers also followed behind the samurai and began firing at the Ming army.

A small number of cavalry began to outflank the Ming army from both flanks.

Yoshino's counterattack made the Ming army look even more flustered, although it had not collapsed immediately, but Yoshino had already seen their panicked expressions, some forward, some backward, running around, some officers holding knives and shouting and scolding, and the bullets fired from muskets did not know where they went.

Yoshino laughed when he saw it: "These Ming soldiers are really vulnerable straw bales, catch up with them for me and cut off their heads." ”

The Yoshinoya soldiers shouted even more frantically and chased forward. All the parts wanted to make a difference, so they all spread their feet and ran forward.

However, because of the difference in foot strength, the distance between the parts gradually widened.

The fastest cavalry had already gone away, leaving everyone else behind, and the others were screaming in anger.

And the Ming army finally began to crumble, turned around and ran wildly into the distance.

The cavalry of the Yoshinoya took the lead, letting out a strange scream, dragging the long knife in their hands, and frantically pursued the fleeing Ming army.

Seeing that the panicked Ming army was about to be overtaken by them, the cavalry of the Yoshinoya screamed even more frantically, not noticing that their target had just fled into a canyon with low hills on both sides, and the top of the mountain was full of trees and greenery.

The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and when the Yoshino cavalry who rushed to the front was about to swing their knives and cut off the heads of the Ming soldiers running at the rear, the war horse under his crotch suddenly fell to the ground and threw him off the horse.

Before the dizzily cavalry could stand up, they were shot through the head by a bullet flying from the forest on the right.

The Yoshino cavalry behind didn't figure out what was going on at all, thinking that the guy's unlucky horse had lost its front hoof, and still frantically urged the horse forward to chase forward.

But at this time, their horses also fell to their knees and threw them off their horses. If you're unlucky, you will break your head, but if you're lucky, you'll have to waste a bullet.

Finally someone realized that the road was full of traps, and they fell into an ambush. But it was too late by this time, and countless bullets were fired from the dense forest on both sides.

And those Ming officers and soldiers who were still running away in panic just now turned around and began to shoot at them.

And at this time, the Ming army also appeared behind them, blocking their retreat.

The dense bullets quickly killed the more than 200 arrogant Yoshinoya cavalrymen.

"Quickly clean up the battlefield and don't let the enemy discover the ambush." An officer with the rank of major general, who was the commander of the ambush mission and the commander of a major general division of the National Guard, gave the order in a deep voice.

Soon, countless officers and soldiers rushed out of the mountains and forests on both sides, and quickly cleaned up the corpses of those cavalry and war horses, and re-covered up the traps and the like.

In order to convince the enemy that there was no ambush here, there were many "corpses" of Ming soldiers lying on the road, and even many flags and muskets thrown on the ground.

Yoshino panted and caught up with the main force, but still found no trace of the cavalry, and the slope scolded: "Eight Geya Road, these bastards ran so fast and died." Keep chasing. ”

He naturally heard the gunfire just now, but he automatically made up for the hasty but powerless counterattack of the Ming official army.

"Yoshino-sama, look at those corpses." Someone pointed to the "corpses" of the Ming soldiers who fell on the road and shouted.

Yoshino looked at it and laughed, "That's the result of our cavalry. They must be chasing the remnants of the enemy, and you have to try to catch up, or the guys on horseback will definitely look down on you even more. ”

When the others heard this, they screamed again, and rushed forward with Yoshino in their arms, lest the credit be lost to the cavalry.

"Huh? Why are the heads of these corpses there? That's not what those guys are used to. Yoshino said in surprise as his gaze swept over the "corpses" lying on the ground.

He knew his cavalry well, and when he fought, he liked to cut off the heads of his enemies as trophies. But the "corpses" in front of them were all intact.

There was a bang, and a bullet went through Yoshino's right eye, and Yoshino fell off his horse without saying a word.

The sound of gunfire was an order, and a dense stream of bullets came out from both sides. The "corpses" that had fallen to the ground also suddenly came back to life, picked up the weapons around them and opened fire on the Fuso people.
