Chapter 143 The First Confrontation ([-])
"After listening to this, Yin Gentao asked again. He said, didn't Shen Weijing negotiate with the Japanese army? If the negotiation is successful, there will be no way for North Korea to recover."

"Hey, for this question, this Zongbing Ge also gave an answer very quickly. Zongbing Ge said that if the Japanese army accepts the surrender, then we will let them go."

"But if we don't surrender and resist stubbornly, then we have no choice but to send troops to destroy them all, so as to avoid future troubles forever."

"Yin Gentao was quite satisfied when he heard this answer, and soon left on his own to report to Li Yan."

At this point, Teacher Miao stopped suddenly, as if he had froze.

At this moment, Jiang Xiaoli took two steps forward, looked at Teacher Miao, and asked softly, "Teacher, what's wrong with you?"

After a while, Teacher Miao came to his senses, smiled and said: "There is another key point here, the old man also said it, but I forgot."

If you forget it, just forget it, it's not an important matter, and then Jiang Xiaoli told Mr. Miao what he thought.

But who would have thought that Teacher Miao turned serious and said, "Telling history is a very rigorous thing, and there is no room for nonsense."

So Jiang Xiaoli saw Teacher Miao take out his mobile phone, tinkered with it for a while, and then said, "Okay, let's continue."

"Um... I can't remember what the old gentleman said. Now I searched it on the browser and will tell you based on the information on the browser."

Seeing Jiang Xiaoli nodded, Teacher Miao continued, "It is said that according to North Korean official records, Shiyue Renzi, North Korean Bibian Secretary said that this Bibian Secretary should be an official position in North Korea." .”

"Okay, the Secretary of Bibian said that there are a total of 8000 heavenly soldiers, and the heavenly soldiers here refer to the Ming army."

"It is said that a soldier needs one liter of food per day. I can't understand this one liter and five for a teacher for the time being. I don't know if it is one catty and five taels..."

"Si Bibian also said that there are [-] horses in total, and each horse needs three liters of horse beans a day."

"Based on this calculation, 8000 people need 720 shi of food per day, and if they last for two months, they need 84 shi of rice."

"Also, more than 2 war horses need [-] shi of horse beans a day, and [-] shi in two months."

"At that time, the Ming army was preparing to move south from Uiju to attack Pyongyang. If this happened, there would be [-] koku of grain left, and Madou would have [-] koku left."

"I don't understand these materials. I don't know if you can hear clearly. It is said that there is not enough food. We can transfer food from the western front. In this way, it can last for more than 50 days, but there is not enough horse beans."

"From this North Korean information, we can know that the military ration problem of the Ming army did not seem to be alleviated at that time, and it even had to be transferred from the western front."

"However, this information should also serve as an important evidence to support history. In other words, the situation of the Ming army at that time was roughly like this."

"In August of the same year, the imperial court appointed Song Yingchang, the right servant of the Ministry of War, as the Liaodong economic strategy, responsible for preparing the Japanese army, which meant that he was responsible for preventing Japanese pirates."

"At the same time, Zhu Yijun personally issued an order to ask the governors and governors of each province to recommend generals for military use."

"On October [-], Zhu Yijun decreed that Li Rusong, the Prime Minister of Ji, Liao, Baoding, and Shandong Military Affairs, and concurrently the commander-in-chief of sea defense and Japanese defense, should immediately go to North Korea."

"Back in October, the Ming army had gathered more than [-] troops in Liaodong, but when Li Rusong led troops south to attack Pyongyang, he only brought [-] elite troops."

"The main reason is the lack of military rations. If there are too many people, the logistics supply cannot be supplied, and the soldiers may starve to death before they have fought."

"But the 4 troops led by Li Rusong were not vegetarians either. According to records, the configuration of this army is as follows."

"Listen to me, Liaodong has [-] iron cavalry, Xuanfu and Datong each have [-] elite cavalry, Jizhen and Baoding each have [-] elite soldiers, [-] infantry from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and [-] Sichuan troops led by Liu Ting, the deputy commander-in-chief of Sichuan."

"This is the specific configuration of Li Rusong's troops going south, almost all of them are elite soldiers from the above-mentioned places."

"Li Rusong personally led the troops southward in early November, and arrived at the city of Pyongyang on January 1591, [-]."

"At that time, the troops guarding the city of Pyongyang were the troops of the Japanese First Army Corps Commander Konishi, with a total of 8000 Japanese troops."

"After arriving at the city of Pyongyang, Li Rusong did not rush to attack, but carefully observed the city of Pyongyang for three days. It was only on the eighth day of the first month that Li Rusong made a battle plan."

"Okay, let's first understand the specific situation of Pyongyang City at that time. In the east of Pyongyang, there are Datong and Changqing gates. In the south, there are Lumen and Hanrug gates. The peak is towering, and the terrain is dangerous and easy to defend but difficult to attack."

"It doesn't matter how many gates there are. The important thing is that Pyongyang is easy to defend and difficult to attack! You just need to remember these four words."

"Next, let's talk about Li Rusong's specific deployment."

"It was said that it was dawn on the [-]th, Li Rusong summoned all the generals and began to deploy plans and assign tasks."

"Li Rusong said to let Wu Weizhong, the guerrilla general of Jizhen, lead the infantry as the vanguard, and Cha Dashou, the deputy general of Liaodong, lead the cavalry to follow behind, and mainly attack the fortress north of Pyongyang, Mudanfeng."

"And then I said, let Yang Yuan of the middle army and Zhang Shijue of the right army lead the troops to attack the Seven Star Gate in the west, and Li Rubai of the left army and general Li Fangchun of the left army lead the troops to attack the common gate in the west."

"Then Zu Chengxun was asked to lead the Ming army disguised as the Korean army to paralyze the Japanese army and attack Lumen in the south."

"In the end, Li Rusong personally took command of the overseer, and the main force of the Ming army attacked the south, west, and north gates. As for the east gate, it was for the Japanese army to retreat."

"On the morning of the eighth day of the first month, after Li Rusong had deployed the battle plan, he ordered all the armies to take action."

"At first, Zu Chengxun led the Ming army to paralyze the Japanese army smoothly, and soon broke through the South Gate, and then, the Hanrug Gate, the Ordinary Gate, the Seven Star Gate, and Mudanfeng were also breached by the Ming army one after another."

"The battle lasted until the afternoon. The Japanese general Kuroda Nagamasa sent Shigekatsu Kuno, one of Kuroda's 24 generals, to the south gate for reconnaissance, but was killed by the Ming army."

"You can learn more about this 24 general Kuroda later. Although it is the history of RB, it is quite interesting."

"Okay, let's continue. The Commander-in-Chief of the Japanese Army's First Army Corps, Commander Xiaoxi, saw that the situation was over, and hurriedly took the remnants of the defeated generals and retreated to a restaurant called Fengyuelou in the north of the city."

"At night, Chief Konishi led his troops to break out from the southeast, and quickly escaped from Pyongyang, crossed the Daedong River, and retreated to Seoul."
