Chapter 932: A World Without Buddhas (11)

Outside of Seoul.

The shouts of killing gradually subsided. Seeing the previously fearless Japanese retreat, the Ming and Dynasty allied forces breathed a sigh of relief. Judging by this posture, they will not launch any more attacks in the short term.

Regarding the killing of Kuroda Nagamasa by the generals of the Dunyi sect, Ma Gui and Yang Hao gave verbal commendations.

After all, in the midst of chaos and turmoil, and lack of news, even if you want to write a memorial to the court, you will not receive it there.

Governor-General Xing Jie is staying in the mainland, and has not yet arrived at the front line...

However, the actor doesn't really care about the rewards from the court, but mainly depends on the later evaluation.

Of course, being able to get a reward, increase the rank and become a noble, can continuously obtain luck blessings from this side of the world, and provide assistance for the next exam related to the oriental worldview.

For example: Lu Li.

With the blessings of dragon, tiger and emperor spirits from the Three Kingdoms World, the Great Tang World, and even the Liao Zhai World, the others are at most only Qian Zong, and he directly becomes the commander in chief who can affect the trend of the entire war.

Counting the peninsula, the total number of soldiers of the Ming Dynasty here can be counted with a slap. When the reinforcements arrive one after another, the total number of soldiers can still be counted with a slap.

Before Kuroda Nagamasa was killed and Kato was seriously injured, the situation was actually quite favorable for the Japanese army.

Most of Jeolla Province has fallen, and there are only fragments left. The difficult rebels are interfering in the rear, and the gate to Seoul has been opened.

The main corps of the Ming army had not yet assembled, and the land force was not dominant at all, and the navy was even more crushed. Yi sun-shin, who was good at performing miracles, still needed a long time to restore the fleet to a certain level of combat effectiveness.

However, counting the crippled Kato Kiyomasa, the Japanese army has already killed four army commanders, not generals!

Among the commanders of the eight major legions, four were either dead or maimed. The two legions were completely wiped out, and their morale had dropped to an unimaginable level.

As the head of the First Legion, Kato was no longer arrogant. He first confronted Lu Li ambitiously, but found out that this person had too many identities.

He was the general who killed Muneshige Tachibana!

He was the demon who killed the two Shimadzu brothers!

He was also the guy who took part in killing President Konishi!

Immediately afterwards, the strange demon fire appeared.

But the trump card he had prepared successfully blocked it. He thought he could kill him, but he came out with an ordinary ancient sword, which easily cut through the golden body of the Bodhisattva and released the demon fire from inside!

So, what's next?

Seeing the confidant and beloved general who was completely discouraged, Toyotomi Hideyoshi suppressed his disappointment and held a meeting.

The people present were far less lively than before, especially compared to the scene when they first set off.

At that time, various daimyos studied the maps of mountains and rivers of the Ming Dynasty with great interest. Some wanted the southeast coastal states and counties, and some wanted to be entrusted near Yanjing, closer to His Majesty the Emperor.

Some even expressed generous concessions. Northeast and Northwest, such bitter cold places that no one likes, he is also willing to lead the family children to control them.

"As long as it is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, I like it."

The lingering sound is still in my ears, and the Sri Lankan has passed away.

Looking at Kato Kiyomasa, who had only one head left and his body had not yet been reborn, Hideyoshi slowly uttered two words: "Retreat."

All the big names were ecstatic.

I didn't expect Taige to figure it out...

In the past, when Toyotomi Hideyoshi unified Japan, he regarded himself as a "man of the world", sitting in Yanshi, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, overlooking the four directions, and the territories under his control included the Ming Dynasty, Li Dynasty, Nanman and Tianzhu.

Everyone knows that the Taige's ambition has broken through the boundaries of reason, and has become a kind of fantasy, and he is immersed in it, unable to extricate himself.

Now, finally recognize the form!

It's never too late!

It's a pity that the big names are still too early to be happy.

[During my lifetime, I will try my best to include the territory of Ming Dynasty in my territory]

【Tang people fear me like a tiger】

[With the combat power of our army, dealing with the Ming Dynasty is like a flood crashing sand, a sharp knife breaking bamboo]

[Why do you need a translator when the war breaks out? Let Mingren and Li Chaoren use our words]

From an extremely delusional person to a normal person who recognizes the reality, Toyotomi Hideyoshi has no hope in this life. The withdrawal of troops he said is arranged in this way——

Kato and Nabeshima returned to Xishengpu, the starting point.

Ukita Hide's family returns to Dongnae.

Maori Xiuyuan returned to Liangshan.

According to Hideyoshi's arrangement, the daimyo generals of various ministries abandoned the previously occupied cities one after another, returned to their garrisons, and continued to occupy the coastal areas from Suncheon to Ulsan.

Obviously, Hideyoshi is waiting for someone.

Kanto heroes!

As early as when he sent troops to conquer the peninsula for the first time, Tokugawa Ieyasu, the daimyo leader in the Kanto area, was not uninterested, and even offered three suggestions:

Land and sea go hand in hand.

The strong bully the weak.

Quick fix.

There are many mountains in Li Chao, and it is not easy to supply land, so he needs to rely on the navy to transport food, grass and luggage.

Using the strong to bully the weak, showing the aura of a lion fighting a rabbit, crushed Li Chao's arrogance all at once.

As for quick battles and quick decisions, only in this way can one's own combat effectiveness be preserved to the maximum extent, with a view to a decisive battle with the Ming Dynasty in the future.

But right now, apart from the fact that the navy has the upper hand, they have nothing to do with it. They can only retreat to the sea, use unimaginable benefits, and cooperate with intimidation to let the Tokugawa family lead the Kanto daimyo to send troops.

The siege of Seoul, is it over like this?

Using the technique of looking from a distance, Lu Li saw that the Japanese army had retreated from Suwon, and the momentum had not stopped. It was a little unbelievable.

Is the old monkey subdued now?

Wouldn't it be better to lay down Seoul for the winter than retreat?

Not only Lu Li couldn't believe it, but so did the high-level coalition army. When it was dawn, they sent Jie Sheng to lead 500 Qingqi to visit along the way.

Jieshan, Jishan, and then Tian'an City.

At this point, the possibility of being attacked by the Japanese was completely ruled out in the Seoul area. Out of caution, Ma Gui personally led Lu Li and others south to Tian'an and headed towards Quanzhou.

Seeing Quanzhou completely abandoned, everyone had to accept this weird reality.

The Japanese really withdrew? !

The evidence is so strong that you have to believe it.

"The desire to fight is so low, and the vitality is low. If there is no new blood to join, sooner or later you will be defeated."

Lu Li's words became a prophecy.

Seoul.

Joseon King Li Yan laughed wildly. He wanted to play on the old tradition and write a letter to mock Toyotomi Hideyoshi.

Every cause must bear fruit.

In the eighteenth year of Tianzheng, Hideyoshi took the initiative to write a letter of credence to Li Yan. In the letter, he kept repeating how extraordinary and noble he was when he was born, what contributions he made in his country, and how noble his ideal of attacking the Ming Dynasty in the future is.

With a lot of rhetoric piled up, Hideyoshi dressed himself up as a savior of "the politicization of the imperial capital and billions of years", and stated that "the land that the sun shines on is under my rule."

After this nervous letter, the old monkey wrote again, asking Li Chao to pay tribute, and it would be best if the king, Li Yan, came in person.

Ignore again and again, in exchange for a letter of credence.

The rhetoric grew harsher.

What's it like to have an aggressive, demented bloody neighbor? The key is that it sends threatening letters every now and then, and takes action!

The King of Joseon was able to talk about it for three days and three nights without repeating any dirty words!
