Li Dingguo took his 10,000 people, plus the 10,000 people collected by Hei Tianzhongzhi, and quietly went out of the inner city of the mansion, from south to north, day and night.
But the next day, they stopped.
On a hill, the big basket rose silently, and it didn't take long for it to be hurriedly withdrawn, and a lieutenant hurriedly ran to Li Dingguo's side, and said, "My lord, they should be within twenty miles, but the specifics are still difficult to find, there are traces of their stay, the stove is still smoking, and they have not gone far." ” Li Dingguo and the others perked up and said: "Order the whole army, be on alert, don't act rashly, and continue to investigate!"
” "Yes!"
The lieutenant left in a hurry.
Li Dingguo's 20,000 men quickly fell silent, carefully observing the Quartet, and did not move at all.
On a hill not far from them, Itakura Shigemasa held a telescope and looked in the direction of Li Dingguo.
The big friend Katsuichi beside him sneered and said, "Palace, this help Ming is really ignorant and fearless, dare to walk around my Jiuguo Island!"
” Itakura Shigemasa put down the binoculars and said, "Mamoru Izu, where are you now?"
” Otomo Katsuyi: "It should be to the Fenggo Domain, Aoyama Hall knows that Yama County and Ichi can't stop the Ming army from Osumi, so it should block them and buy us time, and then we will go south to join forces and annihilate the Ming army!"
” The strategy of the Japanese State is as clear as that is, that is, to eliminate the main force of the Ming army on Jiuguo Island and take the initiative on the battlefield!
Itakura Shigemasa put down the binoculars and said indifferently: "Is the Xiyi cannon ready?"
” "They came a little early, and the location is not quite right, this leader should have some ability, but we have blocked their way, and the Xiyi cannon is enough" The Ming army on the opposite side was only 10,000 people, and the 10,000 people that Kuroda Tadashi had pieced together were not in their eyes at all.
Itakura Shigema's face was cold, his eyes exuded a fierce color, and he said, "Pass the order, leave no one, and after a quarter of an hour, fire the cannon!"
” "Yes!"
Katsuichi Otomo's face was full of excitement and ruthlessness, and he turned to give the order.
Their current army is not a miscellaneous army from the union of many daimyos, this is a pro-clan from the shogunate, a pro-army of the Tokugawa family, well-trained, experienced in combat, second to none in the Wa Kingdom!
Itakura Shigemasa had suppressed the resentment and unwillingness in his heart for too long, and looked at the small hillside hidden by the Ming army, and the fierceness in his eyes became even heavier.
Li Dingguo hid behind a small hillside, staring in all directions, not knowing that he had been discovered, and was studying the map.
Boom, boom, boom Suddenly, shells landed on their hillside without warning, and they continued to think about it.
The face of the captain changed greatly, and he said, "My lord, this is a trap, we have been discovered!"
” Li Dingguo reacted faster than them, rushed to a high point, took the telescope, quickly compared it on the map, and according to the position of the cannon, he quickly found the ambush location of Itakura Shigemasa.
The important thing is that the army of Itakura Shigemasa has rushed over, and there are signs of encirclement.
A lieutenant's scalp is numb, they have been tricked!
If they were buried here, it would have a great impact on the war!
They all looked at Li Dingguo nervously, waiting for his decision.
The best strategy now is to let them retreat quickly after Hei Tianzhong's break, as long as they can retreat to the inner city, they can breathe a sigh of relief and think in the long run.
"My lord, make a decision, you can't put it off!"
Adjutant said.
They didn't bring artillery, and they didn't even have many firearms, and their purpose this time was to ambush Itakura Shigemasa, but they didn't expect to be ambushed instead.
"Yes, my lord, if we don't decide, we won't be able to leave!"
A lieutenant said.
Although Itakura Shigemasa launched an attack and launched a siege, this also shows that it was not Itakura Shigemasa's inherent plan, it was an encounter, but Itakura Shigemasa discovered them earlier.
"My lord, we can't have anything to do, otherwise it will ruin Governor Yang's plan, and the court will investigate it, and we will all be stripped and imprisoned!"
Another lieutenant said.
Itakura Shigemasa has an elite army of 30,000, and they only have 10,000 plus the miscellaneous soldiers of Kurota Tadashiyuki, plus they are ambushed, no matter how you look at it, they have no chance of winning!
Others persuaded Li Dingguo to make up his mind and make a decision, and the words meant the same thing, that is, he should quickly order a retreat and not delay any longer.
Li Dingguo looked at the shells, listened to the increasingly dense footsteps, felt the trembling mountains, looked calm, and said: "If we want to withdraw now, Itakura Shigemasa will definitely chase after us, this is the Japanese country, if there is an ambush on the road, even if we get lost, we may be wiped out."
"Then we can't wait for them to close in, if we withdraw in time, there can be other ways, we can't delay" "Yes, my lord, if I delay any longer, I really won't be able to leave."
"My lord, this can only be the case, let Hei Tianzhong break off, give us time, even if we set up a formation in the back, as long as we are given a little, it is still possible to retreat with our whole body" "You're thinking so well," Li Dingguo was still calm as usual, and said: "If we withdraw, it will be like a mountain of defeat, and no one can save us, and we are destined to die in the Fenghou Domain."
Don't leave anything to chance, the only way for us to survive now is to break through head-on!
” The faces of the adjutant general and several lieutenants changed drastically and they were shocked.
In the face of a menacing enemy, do not avoid its edge, but also face the difficulties?
The reason why Li Dingguo was still delaying time was to convince these captains who led the troops that he felt that the next shell was about to fall on his head, and said patiently: "There is no other way for us to do this."
If we do lose, there won't even be anyone to report to.

If the Japanese state pretends that we are close to Dolgon or other armies and makes a surprise attack, it is very likely that the war situation on the entire Jiuguo Island will change greatly, not only the plan of Yang Dadudu, but also the strategy of the Shuaifu and the great cause of the emperor will be severely frustrated, and we will be the sinners of the Ming Dynasty through the ages!
” Li Dingguo's words made the adjutant general and lieutenant cold, and his eyes struggled.
Li Dingguo pulled out the knife at his waist, his eyes were firm, and he said in a deep voice: "Pass my order, the whole army will attack, face the enemy head-on, and be invincible!"
” "Yes!"
The lieutenant general, the lieutenant's almost instinctive body straightened, and then quickly turned around to reorganize the army.
They also understood that now, their only way to survive is to kill them from the front, otherwise they will be swallowed step by step, and there will be no one left in this strange foreign land!
Li Dingguo and Kuroda Tadayuki's 20,000 men quickly prepared for battle, and then rushed towards Itakura Shigemasa's army, which had already been encircled, under artillery fire.
This move of the Ming army frightened these shogunate daimyo and was completely unexpected.
Even Itakura Shigemasa was stunned, his face was indifferent and cruel, and he said: "Since you are looking for death, I will fulfill you, pass the order, press them all, and don't leave any of them!"
” Itakura Chongchang 30,000 people, Li Dingguo 20,000 people quickly took in, except for the hot weapons at the beginning, the next thing is the cold weapons fight. 50,000 people, in the small forest, entangled together, fierce strangulation, shouting to shake the sky, evil air dry clouds. 767e; 5ea6; 641c; 7d22; 3010; 4e91; 6765; 9601; 3011; 5c0f; 8bf4; 7f51; 7ad9; ff0c; 8ba9; 4f60; 4f53; 9a8c; 66f4; 65b0; 6700; 65b0; 6700; 5feb; 7684; 7ae0; 8282; 5c0f; 8bf4; ff0c; 6240; 6709; 5c0f; 8bf4; 79d2; 66f4; 65b0; 3002; 6
