Chapter 623: Death
Ashikaga Yoshinori will never be willing to let such a thing happen.
But what can he do now, if he doesn't escape, I'm afraid that even he himself will fall into the quagmire, and he will never be able to pull it out again.
Therefore, Ashikaga Yoshichi gritted his teeth and looked at the Ming troops who rushed to kill, and finally chose to give up these soldiers and flee first.
He rolled over his horse, and then, escorted by the generals, quickly opened a gap and tried to escape.
However, will King Zhao let him escape?
Obviously impossible.
King Zhao had been paying attention to the movements of the main force, and at this time, when he saw Ashikaga Yoshinori being surrounded in the middle, and the other generals were rushing out of the encirclement for him, a sneer appeared on the corner of King Zhao's mouth.
"If I really let you escape, then what face do I have to go back to see that stinky boy, won't that stinky boy say that I am not as good as him as the third uncle?"
"Ashikaga Yoshinori, do you think you can escape? Daming has already made such a deployment, even if you want to escape, you can't escape. β
"The credit for catching you must be mine!"
King Zhao laughed, looking at Ashikaga Yoshinori who was running rampantly, his eyes showed a hint of ruthlessness, and then shouted: "Come on, aim at the direction of Ashikaga Yoshimori's escape and give me a hard bang, you must not let them escape from the encirclement!" β
Ashikaga Yoshinori was the chief general of the Wa army, and he was also the core leader of the entire Wa Kingdom, so it would be too embarrassing to let him escape.
And killing him is obviously more conducive to the birth of chaos in the Wa Kingdom.
As long as the Wa Kingdom is in chaos, then it will be easier for them to destroy the Wa Kingdom.
Therefore, Ashikaga Yoshinori insisted that he must die, and he must not escape, let alone leave the territory of the Li Dynasty and return to the Wa Kingdom safely.
After hearing King Zhao's order, the soldiers did not hesitate, and immediately pulled out the red-clothed cannon as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.
The dark muzzle of the red-clothed cannon was aimed at the direction of Ashikaga Yoshimori, and then the cannon was fired directly.
"Boom, boom."
Under such a terrifying artillery attack, the generals who were protecting Ashikaga Yoshinori in the surrounding area were attacked one after another, some of them were blown away, some fell to the ground, and some were already torn apart.
The redcoat cannon was so powerful that they couldn't resist it at all.
But it seems that because of this, it inspires them to want to rush out.
Therefore, when the soldiers of the Japanese kingdom saw such a situation, they rushed here one after another.
Miraculously, they were not afraid of death, and rushed in the same direction, as if they wanted to break through the gap in unison.
Ashikaga Yoshinori also saw more and more Japanese soldiers rushing to this side, and his heart burned with a strong fighting spirit, and at the same time, a strong desire to survive!
He's going back, he's going to have to go back.
Even if he loses this 100,000 army, he must go back, otherwise, he will have no capital.
Where he fails, he must stand up there, and without an army of 100,000, will he not be able to survive Ashikaga Yoshinori? Obviously, this is not possible.
He is going back to China, and he has to make the next deployment!
So he faced such an attack, so that the soldiers frantically blocked the attack of the red-coated cannon for him.
In order to defend against the red-coated artillery, the Wa State had already prepared something to defend against the Ming artillery before landing on the territory of the Li Dynasty.
That's the shield!
Just raise all the shields to form a large shield, which minimizes the power of the explosion.
And that's where it comes in handy.
They raised their shields high above their heads, and then formed a defensive net.
In this way, those artillery bombardments, although they can't avoid casualties, but they can greatly reduce casualties.
And after the Ming army saw that the other party was blocking the power of the red-coated cannon in this way, they couldn't help but speed up the speed of the bomb.
King Zhao sat on his horse, surrounded by everyone in the middle, and there was a row of generals standing beside him, and after seeing such a scene again, those generals sneered again and again.
"Do you think you can stop our artillery in this way? It's so naΓ―ve. β
"King Zhao asked me to take the soldiers to rush forward in person, and promise to capture that Ashikaga Yoshinori alive and bring it to you."
"Yes, sooner or later, let us rush and kill for a while, how can that mere country withstand our onslaught?"
Hearing their words, King Zhao smiled, and then said lightly: "Since they will all die sooner or later, why bother to make more casualties for the soldiers?" β
"Go down, the red-coated artillery will continue to bombard, as long as you don't let Ashikaga Yoshinori escape."
Hearing King Zhao's words, those generals were a little unwilling, but King Zhao, as the main general, still nodded.
King Zhao's style of play is not as reckless as King Han and Zhu Zhanji.
On the contrary, he tends to be stable, because he knows that this war will be won, and Daming will definitely win, so he doesn't care what the result is, what he really wants is to achieve the goal.
If you can achieve your goal no matter what, then why bother to make more casualties for the soldiers?
β¦β¦
That's it.
One hour passed, two hours passed, and three hours passed.
As time passed, the army of the Wa Kingdom became smaller and smaller.
Because their morale has long been dispersed, and King Zhao also knows how to use soldiers, and did not force the Wa Kingdom into a desperate situation, but forced it to fight for a while, which also led to the soldiers of the Wa State not daring to do their best, they always felt that they still had a chance to survive, so they ran away one after another.
But the more they escaped, the faster they died!
Gradually, their numbers plummeted.
And Daming's side is still strong and strong!
The scene was almost overwhelmed, even if the number of the Japanese was several times higher than the number of the Ming army, they still couldn't beat the Ming!
Under such circumstances, King Zhao encroached on the army of the Wa Kingdom little by little.
In the end, only a few thousand people were killed in the Japanese army.
Those soldiers of the Japanese kingdom, dead and wounded, fell to the ground in pieces, and the blood stained almost half of the sky.
And at this very time.
There was also movement on Li Chao's side.
They finally heard the movement outside, and they finally heard the movement of the Ming Dynasty launching a general attack.
When Li Chao's spies saw that Da Ming was exterminating the Japanese army with all his might, he couldn't help but be extremely excited, and he quickly ran back to report to Li Fangyuan.
Returning to the city wall, he knelt on the ground, and shouted to Li Fangyuan on the city wall: "On the report network, the Ming Dynasty has launched a general attack, and the tens of thousands of troops of the Japanese Kingdom have killed only a few thousand people, and Ashikaga Yoshinori is trapped in it, and it is difficult to fly!" β
As soon as these words came out, Li Fangyuan's eyes showed ecstasy!!
