"Commander, give the order to attack the city! Get rid of these scoundrels as soon as possible so that we can meet up with Master Sun and the others. Otherwise, if we arrive late, we won't even be able to drink the soup!"

"Yes, Master! Champion Hou and Master Sun took down Governor Konishi and the Japanese First Army in just one day. We are much slower this time, hehe!"

Just when the Japanese generals in Huining City proposed to use Li Hao's two other sons, Linhai Jun and Shunhe Jun, as exchange conditions to negotiate with the Ming army, the generals under Li Rusong at the Ming army camp outside Huining City

They are also asking for orders to attack the city one by one.

As the saying goes, there is no first in literature and no second in military affairs. Compared with the Yulin Guards and the Jianzhou Army who captured Pyongyang in just one day and wiped out the Japanese First Army at the same time, the Liaodong Army's offensive speed was really too slow.

A little more.

Therefore, how could a group of Liaodong generals who were secretly comparing themselves to the Habayashi Guards be willing to give in?

What's more, the Habayashi Guards and the Jianzhou Army have now left Pyongyang and headed south. If the Liaodong Army fails to deal with Kato Kiyomasa's group of Japanese troops, how will they participate in the subsequent battle to suppress the Japanese? How will they achieve military success!

"There's no rush for now! Let the entire army rest for two days and regain enough energy before attacking the city!"

To the general's surprise, Li Rusong, who had always been a bit impatient on the battlefield, now rejected the generals' suggestion to attack the city immediately.

"Master, right now that Japanese scoundrel Kato Kiyomasa has just retreated to Huining, why don't we take advantage of his unstable footing and attack with an army? If we delay the time and let him prepare to defend the city, we..."

Seeing that Li Rusong actually had to wait two days before attacking the city, the Liaodong generals who were worried that they would give the Japanese time to prepare immediately became anxious.

"You think you can catch these Japanese by surprise by attacking the city now? Have you forgotten why our attack was so slow?"

After looking at these Liaodong generals, most of whom were servants of the Li family, Li Rusong pointed to the two Japanese notices he placed on the case.

"I hereby instruct the immigrants and widowers within the territory to obey the orders of His Highness, to help the area and eradicate the tyranny. To implement good governance and save the people from misery. To quickly return their old residences to build up their family business. Don’t be suspicious!"

"I present to the civil and military officials in the territory, and I have been ordered by His Highness to pacify the territory. Although the servants are not sensitive, they must establish good governance in the territory. If each one returns to his own home and improves his martial arts, he will be given his weapons and assigned to his duties. The one who submits first will be rewarded.

If you don’t accept it, cut it off, so please give it a try!”

It turns out that unlike the other Japanese armies that burned, killed, and looted all the way after landing, the second army led by Gaten Qingzheng, after entering Xianjing Road, for the purpose of occupying the peninsula for a long time, in order to win people's hearts, they

Strict military discipline was also maintained.

Therefore, after entering the Xianjing Road, except for a battle with Han Kecheng, the North Road soldier of Bangzi, and capturing him alive, the other defenders of Bangzi surrendered voluntarily.

So much so that the Second Japanese Legion led by Gaten Kiyomasa easily occupied the entire Hamgyeong Province almost without a fight.

Not only that, even the hostages they planned to use to negotiate with the Liaodong Army, Linhai Jun and Shunhe Jun, were captured by the Bangzi officers and soldiers on their own initiative and then sent to the Japanese.

Therefore, in this case, when Li Rusong led the Liaodong Army and 10,000 female Hercynian rearguard troops to attack, although Kato Kiyomasa suffered repeated defeats, with the help of the Bangzi Army, he was defeated without losing his vitality.

hurt.

"No wonder the champion has specially told us not to be soft on these sticks! Damn it, if they hadn't helped us, why wouldn't we be able to clean up these bastards until now?"

Seeing that even now, Ningcheng's sticks were still helping these wimps, all the Liaodong generals couldn't help but feel angry.

"Haha, don't worry, they will cry sometimes!"

Looking at Huining City, Li Rusong couldn't help but smile coldly.

…

"Commander, the champion has already made it clear that in this war against the Japanese, not a single Japanese will be let go, what about you?"

Seeing the Japanese envoy leaving the camp, all the generals of the Liaodong Army suddenly couldn't help but look puzzled and worried.

It turned out that on the second day after Li Rusong besieged Huining, the Japanese in the city sent a negotiator. They proposed the release of Lord Linhai and Lord Shunhe in exchange for the Ming army's release of the siege.

Faced with the Japanese conditions, Li Rusong unexpectedly agreed after adding a large amount of financial requirements. Therefore, this aroused doubts and concerns from the generals.

You must know that at the swearing-in meeting before the expedition, Wang Bing personally announced that he would not even take Japanese prisoners in this battle.

But now Li Rusong actually wants to release nearly 20,000 people. If Wang Bing finds out about this, even if Li Rusong and his family gain the emperor's trust again, they will not be able to pass Wang Bing's test. What's more, Man Chaowen has

Who would have a champion like Wang Bing to gain the emperor's trust?

"Haha, don't worry. I only promised to let go of the encirclement of Huining City, but I didn't say to let them leave Xianjing Road!"

Facing the doubts and worries of the generals, Li Rusong couldn't help but sneered and waved his hand.

"Rabbits bite people when they are cornered! These wimps have those sticks to help them. If we attack by force, even if we break through Huining City, our losses will definitely not be small! So it is better to pretend to agree to them first and wait until they leave the city.

, if we attack here with cavalry again, we will surely annihilate them in one fell swoop!"

In the end, Li Rusong revealed the reason why he agreed to the exchange conditions of these Japanese pirates.

"No wonder the young master wants to ask for so much gold and silver from the Japanese. It turns out that it is to reassure these Japanese, hahahaha!"

…

"Gentlemen, although Li Rusong agreed to our conditions, in order to prevent fraud, we cannot leave the city together with the entire army. We must leave the defenders behind just in case! Only after ensuring that there is no fraud, can the entire army withdraw!

"

Just when Li Rusong was planning to use his plan to lure the Japanese out of the city, Kato Kiyomasa, who received Li Rusong's reply, started to play tricks again.

"My lord is wise!"

It's just that the 'wise' Kato Kiyomasa has forgotten that all the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were captured alive, and the Ming Dynasty never surrendered. How could two princes of Li Huo make the Ming army let go of the siege!

…

"Kato Kiyomasa thanked General Lee!"

Outside Huining City, after leaving eight thousand Japanese soldiers to continue to defend the city, Kato Kiyomasa led the vanguard of 10,000 Japanese soldiers out of the city.

"No need to thank you! Just hand over Lord Linhai!"

Looking at Kato Kiyomasa who was extremely polite, Li Rusong waved his hand carelessly.

"The green mountains never change and the green waters always flow, General Li. See you soon!"

After waving his hand to hand over Linhai-kun, one of the hostages, and hundreds of boxes of property to the Liaodong Army, Kato Kiyomasa couldn't wait to lead his army and slowly left.

"Master, why don't we eat his ten thousand people first and then talk about it, hehe!"

Seeing these thousands of Japanese pirates leaving the city, all the Liaodong generals couldn't help but drool.

"Why are you so anxious? I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Didn't you see that there are still Japanese pirates in there? Wait until they leave the city and deal with them all!"
