217 General attack of the Ming army
The spiritual pillar that supported the Japanese army in Busan in the case of extreme lack of water, food and ordnance was broken, all of this no longer existed, the Ming army of 40,000 troops lined up, and the black pressure of a large army was like a black cloud pressing the city, the murderous spirit was awe-inspiring, and the muzzles of hundreds of cannons and black holes were aimed at the place where the Japanese city was located, symbolizing the determination of the Ming army to never withdraw easily this time, which was like a boulder that crushed the camel, completely destroying their will to fight.

From the surrender of the first Waseong to the penultimate surrender of Waseong, it took only half a day, and the entire Busan Waseong system was completely destroyed, leaving only two Waseong Castles that did not surrender, one belonged to Ishida Mitsunari and one belonged to the Ukita Hideya, the two Waseong Castles were next to each other, and all the surrounding Waseong Castles surrendered, and they did not make any action or make any efforts to stop them.
Xiao Ruxun ordered the army to surround the last two Japanese cities, and at the same time ordered the army to begin to surrender, counting the Japanese people who surrendered with the army, and roughly calculated, there were 30,000 Japanese soldiers who surrendered, and 50,000 people surrendered with them, and finally the two Japanese cities together had a maximum of 10,000 soldiers and 10,000 people, considering the number of unnatural deaths, they together did not exceed 15,000 people.
"The time has finally come for this war to come to an end."
Yuan Huang stood beside Xiao Ruxun, looking at the main force of the Ming army that gradually surrounded the two Japanese cities, and sighed sincerely.
From October 30 to today, the second day of the second month of February, within a winter, the Ming army has completely eliminated those murderous enemies, and the last moment will come, Yuan Huang, as an old man who has been active in the anti-Japanese front line since decades ago, witnessed the end of this old feud between the Ming Dynasty and Japan.
"A new war is about to start soon, I will definitely not give the Japanese a chance to breathe, Yuan Gong, is there any news from Song Gong?"
The war has been fought until now, Song Yingchang has fulfilled his promise, did not intervene in the front-line war, has been in the rear for Xiao Ruxun to deploy food and grass materials, so that the wounded soldiers can rest assured to recuperate, and transfer new soldiers from all over the country to supplement the strength of the Ming army, so that Xiao Ruxun's combat soldiers have been maintained at about 40,000 people, saving Xiao Ruxun countless worries, it can be said that without Song Yingchang's full support, Xiao Ruxun can not concentrate all his energy on the decisive battle with the Japanese army.
The next thing, Xiao Ruxun can't avoid Song Yingchang to make his own decision, he must reach a consensus with Song Yingchang, so that he supports the Ming army to continue the expedition to Japan, and capture the Iwami region, and even another bloody battle with the Japanese army to consolidate vested interests, counting on the Qingliu in the DPRK and China to support him and see the benefits behind this war is meaningless, he must win the support of the enlightened faction within the civilian system.
And they have come up with enough benefits to persuade them, so that they can support their military actions and resist the pressure of the anti-war faction in the DPRK and China.
Xiao Ruxun heard some rumors, from the exchange of letters with Song Yingchang, Xiao Ruxun learned that with the passage of time and the further clarity of the war situation, the power of the anti-war faction in Korea and China is getting stronger and stronger, they think that the Ming Dynasty has fulfilled its duties, there is no need to continue to fight, and they should eliminate the Japanese pirates in Busan, and then the class will be fine, and Xiao Ruxun does not know anything about the Japanese coup d'état and the killing of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and they will not be interested.
They won't understand the importance of three-point Japan, they will be interested in Iwami Ginzan at most, and that is also Xiao Ruxun's biggest bargaining chip - the biggest bargaining chip to get the emperor's support.
All this needs to be achieved through Song Yingchang.
Therefore, it was necessary to take down the last two Japanese cities before Song Yingchang arrived in Busan, and completely annihilate the Japanese inside.
"Song Jingluo is on the road, and he can rush to the barracks at night, Ji Xin, we don't have much time."
Yuan Huang knew about Xiao Ruxun's plan, and he was a staunch supporter.
"I see." Xiao Ruxun nodded, and summoned Wu Weizhong and Ma Gui.
"Mr. Wu, Mr. Ma, let's start!"
Xiao Ruxun gave the order for a general attack, these two Japanese cities, even if they are attacked, Xiao Ruxun must take them! To this end, Xiao Ruxun mobilized 500 artillery pieces of various kinds, and he wanted to use the firepower to make the Japanese doubt their lives and destroy their last will.
Large artillery tactics have been very common in the Korean Ming army, and the firearms equipment rate of the North Korean Ming army has also ranked first in the country, and the mastery ability and technology of firearms are also the highest in the country, and the coordination tactics between firearms and cold weapons are also very proficient.
The age of firearms has come, the era of great artillery is gradually approaching, and no one can go against the times.
Yes, it's all irreversible.
"Cannon !!"
With a broken drink, the roar of artillery resounded through the world, outside the range of the Japanese army's attack, the artillery of the Ming army roared, and the cannonballs with killing intent either fell in the city or fell outside the city, but in any case, these shells carried out the killing intent of the Ming army very well.
Two quarters of an hour later, the cannon fire stopped, and the whole of Busan fell silent.
Soon after, the earth-shattering shouts rang out.
The main attack on the Japanese city defended by Ishida Sancheng was Li Rusong and his 5,000 Jurchen Liaodong coalition army, who were eager to fight, and even dismounted and fought on foot, acting as the vanguard of the army; And the main attack on the Ukita Xiu's family to defend the city, is the Sichuan army Liu Wei who has just come to North Korea for a week, their speed is too slow, Xiao Ruxun has already led the army to achieve a decisive victory, they have just arrived, naturally can only follow the army to eat ashes, no benefits, now the heart of the war is not under Li Rusong.
The two armies each had 5,000 men and horses, as the vanguard of the main attack on the city, and the sound of killing shook the sky for a while, and Li Rusong and Liu Wei, who were eager to fight, regardless of casualties, each led their own combined army to launch a decisive charge to the target, and did whatever it took to do so.
Li Rusong's troops are not to mention, the Han soldiers and the Jurchen soldiers are united, Liu Wei's troops are real "United Nations Army", Xiao Ruxun only saw the yellow-black skin of the Southeast Asian race, but also saw the black soldiers covered in pitch black, as well as the white soldiers with obvious Caucasian characteristics, it really deserves the title of "United Nations Army", the weapons used by this force, the complexity of the language used, and the fierceness of combat effectiveness, all made the Ming army look sideways.
They were looking forward to the combat effectiveness of this mixed army, as the main person in charge of the debut, Liu Wei made full preparations for this battle, Xiao Ruxun provided him with everything he might need, Liu Wei hugged his fists and thanked him, and then rushed to the city without fear of death.
