Chapter 369: Siege (3)
"Eh? Isn't that the Peony Terrace? Why did it become the Peak Fire Terrace? Hahahaha!"
Just when the Japanese pirates in the city got into the buildings and took advantage of the geographical location to start a street fight with the Jianzhou Army and the Yulin Guards, at the Peony Terrace in the northeast corner of Pyongyang City, thick smoke suddenly rose and flames shot into the sky!
It turned out that the Jianzhou Army and the Yulin Guards who were attacking the other gates had already entered the city, but the Peony Terrace, which he was in charge of, had not yet been captured. Li Zunzu, who was anxious, gave up attacking the mountain and instead asked He Heli to attack the mountain.
The Jianzhou Army directly set fire to the mountain!
There was no way around it. The terrain of Mudantai was dangerous, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. Even with the help of the Crouching Tiger Artillery, which was good for mountain warfare, after several attacks, there were still heavy casualties.
Although most of the casualties were borne by the Jianzhou Army led by He Heli, the casualties of the Yulin Guards were also considerable.
In addition, seeing that the armies from other gates had entered the city, Li Zunzu, who was already feeling sorry for the casualties of the Yulin Guards, gave the order to set fire to the mountain.
"Burn, let's set fire to it too! Burn these little naughties to death!"
As soon as Li Zunzu set fire to the mountain, he was reminded that Qi Panzong, Hu Dabiao and other Yulin Guard generals who were fighting with the little Japanese in the city also reacted one after another and directly ordered to set fire to it!
"Huhuhu~"
Soon, following the generals' orders, the buildings where the Japanese were hiding were set on fire one after another. With the help of the wind, a raging fire soon broke out.
At this time, those Japanese who wanted to use the buildings in the city to hide and fight in the streets with the Ming army were forced out. Then, under the fire blunderbuss of the Yulin Guards and the swords, guns, bows and arrows of the Jianzhou Army, one after another their despicable souls returned to the East.
!
Just like this, along the streets and alleys, as long as the Japanese dared to hide in the houses and buildings, the Yulin Guards and the Jianzhou Army would not say anything, they would directly set fire to them and then kill them!
Under the tens of thousands of Yulin Guards and the Jianzhou Army's search and suppression at any cost and by any means, the Japanese who had always been arrogant and arrogant now became afraid and began to run away one after another!
There was no way, no matter how stubborn these little boys were and no matter how unafraid of death, their flesh and blood bodies could not stop the Yulin Guards' firearms and the Jianzhou Army's swords, guns and arrows.
However, today's Pyongyang City is surrounded by Ming troops on the north, west, and south sides, and the rolling Datong River blocks the way in the east. These Japanese are already turtles in a urn, and there is no way to escape!
In the end, the two caves near Janggyeonmun Gate and Daedong Gate near the east city of Pyongyang, Lianguangjeong Pavilion and Fengyuejeong Pavilion, became the last refuge for the remaining Japanese Japanese.
…
"Lord, we, what should we do now?"
In the Lianguang Pavilion Caves not far from Changqing Gate, a dozen or so people, who could tell from their armor and attire that they were senior Japanese generals, were looking at a man wearing gorgeous and exaggerated armor with lingering fear.
, a middle-aged Japanese general in his thirties, who is it if he is not the general of the Japanese First Army, Yukino Konishi?
"What do you think?"
As a Catholic, Governor Konishi touched the silver cross on his chest, prayed silently in his heart, and then looked at his generals without anger or joy.
"The Ming army is so powerful, it's not as good as, it's not as good as..."
Faced with Governor Konishi's neither happy nor angry inquiry, several Japanese generals became helpless.
"Lord, why don't we send people to 'negotiate' with the Ming army to see if they can let us live! Even if the Ming army doesn't agree, we can delay the time. After dark, we can start again
Datong River swimming evacuation..."
Finally, amid the silence of the generals, Soyoshi, the lord of Tsushima and the son-in-law of Konishi Yukinaga, stood up and made a proposal called 'negotiation', which was actually a proposal of surrender.
Of course, he also made corresponding suggestions regarding the possibility that the Ming army would not accept surrender.
"Do you all think so?"
After the son-in-law Zong Yichi finished speaking, Governor Konishi still looked at the generals with emotion and anger.
Faced with Governor Konishi's inquiry, the generals did not dare to answer, but bowed their heads in shame.
"Then let's find someone to negotiate!"
Just when the generals who wanted to surrender but were too ashamed to reply thought that Governor Konishi would be furious, a sentence that caught them by surprise came out of Governor Konishi's mouth.
"Lord!"
Seeing that the lord, Mr. Konishi, was so 'understanding', several people who were still ashamed at first knelt down with a click.
In fact, despite the bullshit 'bushido' that the little Japanese bastards keep talking about all day long, the reality is that their so-called 'bushido' is just used to 'brainwash' the lower-level samurai so that they can become better
It's just a way to control the lower-level samurai.
As for the big names in the upper echelons, such as Tibetan Lords, they are actually very afraid of death. How many of them would really take this bullshit ‘bushido’ to heart?
Therefore, if he continues to carry it, he will be buried in Pyongyang City together with the lower-class samurai and ashigaru who were bewitched. How could Yukinoshi Konishi, the 'general general' who came from a small businessman, do it for Toyotomi Hideyoshi?
That 'monkey' risked his own life to show his loyalty to him!
"Which of you would like to see the commander-in-chief of the Ming army?"
Finally, after deciding to go to the Ming Army for 'negotiations', the old boy, Governor Konishi, then looked at the generals kneeling in front of him.
"this……"
When asked who was willing to be a 'negotiation' messenger, the few people who looked grateful just now were speechless again.
There was no way, from the Ming army's siege deployment that left no way for them to retreat, and from the unscrupulous tactics used to annihilate them after entering the city, these people were afraid that if they were not careful, they would go from being sent as envoys to being sent to death.
'!
"Otherwise, let's let that guy Saburo Inuka go! Anyway, he's not even a man now. Even if the Ming army doesn't agree to negotiate..., it won't tarnish the honor of my Yamato samurai, right?"
Finally, Matsuura Jinnobu, one of President Konishi's cronies, suddenly brightened up and thought of Inukaisaburo, the first eunuch of Japan, who was released by Li Chengming, a guy who was "happy to help others."
Speaking of which, among the few Japanese Japanese who were kidnapped by Li Chengming, a dandy uncle who was "loving to help others", this "dog-raised" one lived up to his name and survived. However, the other Japanese Japanese children did not live up to his name.
They all broke down on the way back to Pyongyang.
"Inukai-kun, this trip...if the Ming army does not agree, you should try your best to delay the time until dark! If you can complete the task, after returning home, I recommend you to serve Mr. Taikaku!"
After handing over the task of 'negotiation' to Inukaisaburo, President Konishi patted Inukaisaburo on the shoulder and promised with a kind face.
"Little man, little man, thank you so much, my lord!"
In response to President Konishi's self-righteous 'gift', Saburo Inukai quickly knelt down with a grateful look on his face.
Chapter completed!
