Chapter 38: The chaos is shocking
As soon as Li Chenggui wanted to make up his mind, his personal guard commander hurriedly shouted outside.
"The Ryukyu Army of the Great King has retreated, and it has withdrawn to Busan."
Li Chenggui immediately laughed. "What! The Ryukyu Army retreated! Is this true? ”
"The king has confirmed it!"
got an affirmative answer, and Li Chenggui laughed again. "Haha good! The day after that, the whole army attacked and recaptured Busan. ”
This time, the civil and military forces did not oppose again, and there was no longer a threat to the north of Daegu City, so they didn't need to divide their troops anymore!
Before the Goryeo army reached the halfway point, Ju-sang had already returned to the Busan pier.
The 10,000 sailors who also returned to Dongfan Island also brought back the large ship carrying goods.
Daimyo such as Shimazu Yasuyasu had already returned to Kyushu Island, so it was Otomo Yamataka and Shimazu Ikuho who came to greet Jusang.
Knowing that 10,000 sailors and 30,000 Japanese troops had been dispatched to Shikoku Island, and more than 100,000 horses from Goryeo were about to be killed, Zhu Sang knew that he couldn't stay any longer.
"The Heavenly King came just in time, and we will be able to defeat Li Chenggui together in a few days." Otomo Yama Gao Le laughed, but in his heart he didn't want Zhu Sang to participate.
If Li Chenggui is defeated, they will definitely be determined in the south of Goryeo, but how to divide the territory then! At this critical juncture, I don't want to fight with the Ryukyu Army again.
However, Zhu Sang directly shook his head and refused. "The Ryukyu Kingdom also has to guard against pirates in the South China Sea and the Ming Navy, so the Ryukyu Army will not be able to participate in this battle!"
"This! Heavenly King, we have made an alliance! Shimazu said nervously, he was also worried that the Japanese army would be defeated by the hundreds of thousands of troops in Goryeo.
Although there are 100,000 people in the four kingdoms of Kyushu combined, there are only 80,000 soldiers on land, and there are only more than 10,000 samurai!
"Deputy Marshal Shengfan, the previous alliance was not a decisive battle with the Goryeo Kingdom!" Gong Shouren immediately reminded.
Nodding his head, Zhu Sang said: "This king will bring the main force back, but he will also divide his troops to occupy Jeju Island, so the Goryeo naval division will definitely not dare to go south." ”
"As for your decisive battle with the Kingdom of Goryeo, this king does not have this force to consume."
Zhu Tianwang had already said this, and Otomo Yamagao immediately laughed. "Thank you for your help! However, Goryeo has been enemies of the Wa Kingdom for generations, and this time it must be fought to return. ”
"That's right! I've been waiting to have a fight with the Koreans. "The Ryukyu Navy will occupy Jeju Island, which makes Shimazu Soho a lot more relieved!
…
After a day's rest, Zhu Sang led his army out of Busan.
As soon as he went to sea, a clipper sent urgent information.
Zhou Hai also hurriedly reported to the Heavenly King. "Heavenly King, the Daimyo of Honju Island such as Maori Asai have landed on the northwest coast of Busan, and the size of the vanguard force is twenty or thirty thousand!"
He Shan couldn't help but marvel. "The Wa Kingdom is going to completely occupy Goryeo!"
"Goryeo will definitely not be able to stop it this time! At least the south is going to be lost! Gong Shouren also frowned and said.
When they finished sighing, Zhu Sang laughed. "It seems that these Japanese daimyo can't help but do it! Lee Sung-gye, the king of Goryeo, is also going to do it! ”
"Heavenly King, are we going to Jeju Island? At this time, the Japanese army no longer needs our support! "Zhou Hai didn't want to help the Japanese Kou.
"If the Heavenly King occupies Goryeo, it will be even more difficult to deal with!" Gong Shouren was worried!
After thinking about it, Zhu Sang nodded. "Originally, I planned to put the cavalry on Jeju Island, but now that the situation has changed, we will go to the Liaodong Peninsula to stop and wait for the fighters!"
"But let's continue to transport the captives and supplies back to Dongfan!"
Similarly, Yi Sung-gye also learned that the Japanese on Honju Island had landed on the northern coast of Daegu Fortress, which made the king of Goryeo have to stop first.
The Goryeo Army in the rear also began to continue to rush to the front line of Busan and Daegu.
Knowing that the Goryeo Army was still increasing its troops, Otomo Yamataka had no choice but to unite with Maori and other Japanese troops.
Both armies were massing and calmed down for a short time, but knowing that after the landing of hundreds of thousands of Japanese invaders, all the Goryeo people in the south had begun to flee to the northern part of the peninsula or to hide in the mountains and forests.
The Ryukyu Army was going to land and dock in Jinzhou, and the local defenders did not dare to stop it, not to mention Lao Zhu's secret order.
Although it was not blocked, Jinzhou City also closed the city gate and urgently reported to the Liaodong headquarters.
After receiving the urgent report, Zhu Di was also very surprised. "Zhu Sang, he actually came to Golden State! He also began to set up a camp, what did he want to do! ”
"Your Highness, the Jinyi Guard has reported that the daimyo of Honshu Island in the Wa Kingdom have begun to send troops! Presumably, Zhu Sang didn't dare to stay in Axe Mountain anymore. The great monk said immediately.
Zhu Di nodded. "But he actually set up a camp, he can't still want to fight Liaodong, right? After speaking, Zhu Di also smiled disdainfully, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Liaodong are not something that Zhu Sang's tens of thousands of people can handle.
"Your Highness should not be underestimated, in case Zhu Sang also bribed the Liaodong soldiers!" Yao Guangxiao is not so optimistic.
Shocked! Zhu Di said immediately! "This Zhu Sang doesn't know how many people he has bought! He must not be allowed to stay in Liaodong! ”
Thinking of Zhu Sang's previous record, Zhu Di didn't really want to fight him!
"Emperor Yan has an order not to clash with the Ryukyu army, so he can only talk and not use troops."
Hearing the words of the great monk, Zhu Di also immediately arrived with him temporarily. "What the master said is that this king will go and talk to him personally!"
"Although the daimyo of the Japanese kingdom are scattered, it is estimated that this new king of Goryeo will be difficult to defeat the Japanese army! Your Highness had better form an alliance with Zhu Sang to deal with the Wakos together! Yao Guangxiao proposed again!
"Forge an alliance! Hehe! Then give it a try! Zhu Di smiled bitterly!
Yao Guangxiao naturally knew what Zhu Di was worried about! This Zhu Sang likes to form alliances with others, but his former allies were killed by him.
Worried that Zhu Sang would poach his soldiers and horses, Zhu Di hurriedly set off, and he was also worried that Jinzhou would be occupied by him if it was too late.
Daming Palace.
"What! This rebel stopped in Golden State! ”
"The next big war is not something that his people can participate in, so why hasn't he returned to Ryukyu!"
Jiang Zhen could only shake his head and explain. "The emperor's ministers have not found out!"
"Stand down!" Lao Zhu didn't get angry, Jiang Zhen is also to blame for this.
"It's the emperor!"
Before Jiang Zhen walked outside the door, Lao Zhu gave an order. "Urgently order King Yan to be optimistic about Liaodong, but don't fight easily!"
"Take pen and ink, let's ask what this rebel wants to do!"
Soon the old eunuch hurriedly took the letter paper and unfolded it, and Lao Zhu took the brush and wrote it himself.
Sigh while writing Lao Zhu! "You kid, you have ransacked all the rich landlords, and you can't rely on farmers alone in this world!"
Lao Zhu also agreed with Zhu Sang's action of dividing the land very much, but even he didn't dare to have this idea, which was almost the enemy of all the ruling upper classes.
"It's good to be in Goryeo! Otherwise, the military officials in the world will not spare you, a rebel! ”
Now Lao Zhu is most worried that Zhu Sang will divide the land in Liaodong, and then it will delay the Liaodong army to enter Goryeo.
If the Japanese invaders occupy the Goryeo Peninsula, the Ming Dynasty will face a more difficult to deal with in the future, and once the Japanese daimyo is condensed, Liaodong may have the dilemma of the late Sui and early Tang dynasties!
