Chapter 746 Ambush
"Where are the Eastern-Turkish Allied Forces?"
At this moment, it is noon.
The soldiers sat in the woods eating fried noodles and drinking water from the stream.
Chang Wei came to the highest point of Fengming Mountain, holding a telescope and looking at the overlapping hills in front of him.
In such complex terrain, he thought he could fight a beautiful ambush.
In this case, he had to rely on the flexibility of the infantry to annihilate this army first.
After attacking the city, he could wait slowly for the rear army to arrive.
"Back to the general, they are still about sixty miles away from Fengming Mountain. It is estimated that they will not be able to arrive here until tomorrow afternoon." said the Korean guide who was responsible for guiding the way.
The people of Goryeo hated the Japanese very much.
Because the Japanese invaded Goryeo several times, burning, killing, looting, and committing all kinds of evil.
Massacres were also carried out on the coastal Goryeo cities.
These things spread among the Korean people long ago.
Therefore, the Eastern-Turkish Allied Forces, including Japan, entered Goryeo.
The people of Goryeo actively acted as spies, constantly reporting the movements of the Japanese army.
This means that the movements of the Eastern-Turkish Allied Forces are within their control.
"Qinshan, Lu Chang, Guantong, you will place your soldiers along the ridges on both sides of the back, there will be an ambush tomorrow!" Chang Wei shouted.
Fengming Mountain Trail is the only way to Qingbo Bridge.
It was from here that the remnants of the Goryeo army fled to Anseong through Cheongpa Bridge.
If the Eastern and Turkish Allied Forces want to continue their pursuit, they must go here.
"Yes, General." The three of them heard the words and responded in unison.
Rested overnight.
The next morning, the guide again sent the latest information.
The 80,000 Eastern-Turkish Allied Forces finished their meal and continued towards Fengming Mountain.
After waiting for another two hours, a long team entered the Fengming Mountain pass.
This team is composed of a mixture of Shi clan troops and Japanese troops.
Because the soldiers in the front of this army are tall and the soldiers in the back are short.
The tall one is obviously a soldier of the powerful tribe, while the short one is a Japanese soldier.
Among the people, there is another name for Japan, which is the Japanese country.
Wa is the word of Wagua, which means short.
Therefore, the royal generals immediately distinguished the two.
After the Eastern-Turkish Allied Forces entered Fengming Mountain, Chang Wei did not immediately launch an attack.
Instead, they waited quietly for the team to walk into the center of the ambush circle.
In order to avoid the exposure of the royal family's troops.
He deliberately placed his soldiers in ambush on the back ridge rather than at the front foot of the mountain.
Only a small number of soldiers were sent for reconnaissance.
It seems that after entering Goryeo, the war went extremely smoothly, and the generals of the Eastern and Turkish Allied Forces did not pay attention to the mountains and forests on both sides.
After all, for them, the Goryeo army would run away when they saw them, so it was impossible to ambush them.
After waiting for half an hour, all the Eastern and Turkish coalition forces entered the ambush circle.
At this time, under the order of the general, the soldiers of the royal family moved from the ridge on the back to the foot of the mountain.
Although it did not carry artillery, howitzers.
But for this ambush, they carried a large number of grenades.
At the foot of the mountain, the soldier responsible for throwing the grenade took out the grenade and held the match rope with his hand.
Other soldiers aimed their rifles at the Eastern-Turkish coalition soldiers on the mountain road.
"Hit!" Chang Wei, who was at the front of the ambush circle, gave the order when he was ready.
The soldiers threw the pomegranates in their hands one after another.
The soldiers of the Eastern-Turkish Alliance Army who were marching suddenly noticed a black shadow flying out of the woods on both sides.
Before they could react, these black shadows fell among them.
"Boom boom boom..."
The sound of explosions echoed through the mountains and forests.
The entire mountain road was covered in smoke and fire.
In the shock wave of the explosion, many Eastern-Turkish coalition soldiers were directly thrown away. Mud, pieces of clothing and stumps were scattered everywhere, and blood dyed the mountain road red.
Suddenly attacked, the soldiers of the Eastern-Turkish coalition were frightened.
Along the way, they fought against Goryeo soldiers like rabbits, and never encountered fierce resistance, let alone an ambush.
Furthermore, the Goryeo army only had a small number of old firearms, mostly swords.
This sudden explosion could not have been caused by the Goryeo army.
Some generals from the powerful tribes who had fought against the royal army reacted immediately, "These are the soldiers and horses of King Yan!"
Realizing this, the powerful generals and soldiers not only did not calm down, but became more and more frightened.
They knew very well the power of King Yan's soldiers and horses.
Being ambushed in such a narrow mountain pass, they would die without a burial this time.
At the same time, the Japanese army behind the team was also in chaos.
Waves of grenades flew towards the mountain road, and the crowded Japanese soldiers became the best targets.
After just a few breaths, the ground was covered with the corpses of Japanese soldiers.
"Bagya Road!"
In the chaos, the Japanese general in charge of leading the forward, Ogawa Nishizawa, kept cursing.
He is from the Ogawa family, one of the six major families in Japan.
In the forward army, he was responsible for commanding 50,000 Japanese soldiers.
After occupying the royal city of Goryeo, he received news that the remaining Goryeo army fled north, crossed Qingbo Bridge, and headed for Anseong.
So he immediately decided to continue his pursuit northward, wipe out the Goryeo army in one fell swoop, and completely occupy Goryeo, including Goryeo's invasion of Dasong territory.
But he didn't expect that he would be ambushed here.
The firearm that fell from the sky was the same as a stick but could explode. He instantly understood that it was the soldiers and horses of King Dasong Yan.
Because the Japanese have been paying attention to the civil strife in Dasong, they know that the troops of the King of Yan have such a convenient and powerful firearm.
"Why, why did the troops of the King of Yan appear in Goryeo? Isn't Goryeo the enemy of the King of Yan?" Ogawa Nishizawa was full of doubts.
But the urgent battle situation did not allow him to think at all.
Under the bombardment of stick-like weapons, the Japanese army suffered heavy losses in an instant.
The important thing is that they have no obstacles to hide in the mountain road.
They can only continue to suffer casualties.
Seeing that they were about to fall in Fengming Mountain, he grabbed a Japanese general and shouted: "Let the soldiers kill into the mountains on both sides."
However, the Japanese army has fallen into chaos. Only a few generals received the order. Some Japanese soldiers shouted "Board!" and rushed into the woods.
However, they just reached the edge of the woods and suddenly saw countless flames in the dark woods.
Bullets flew towards them like raindrops.
"Puff, puff..." The bullets made blood holes in the Japanese soldiers one after another.
Japanese soldiers fell in a pool of blood.
Attacked by grenades and shot by firearms at the same time.
The Eastern Allied Forces in the mountain road were increasingly unable to resist.
After an hour, the gunshots and explosions in the mountain road gradually subsided.
At this time, the sun was setting, and the red light of the setting sun enveloped the mountain forest. The entire mountain road turned red against the blood and light.
The soldiers of the royal palace walked out of the forest with rifles equipped with bayonets.
