Chapter 1253: Liujing is pacified, the front line is pushed back

Liujing, the Japanese pirates and the Goryeo royal family were both holding their breath.

That is, to see which side would collapse first.

However, just as Ukita Hideie learned that the Yi Pass had been breached, his heart was filled with anxiety.

Although it was said that Kobayakawa Takakage was responsible for guarding that direction, Ukita Hideie didn't trust anyone.

At the last moment of the siege, a deafening roar sounded because the city gate had finally been breached.

With hysterical roars, the Japanese pirates raised their samurai swords and charged forward desperately.

Because their harvest days had finally arrived.

When the King of Goryeo learned that the city gate had been breached, his eyes were filled with despair as he said, "Great Gan, did Great Gan not make it in time after all?"

But just after the King of Goryeo finished this sentence, the civil and military officials beside him were all very uncomfortable.

And just as Ukita Hideie was feeling happy about breaching Liujing, the sound of galloping horses came from afar.

Turning his head to look, when Ukita Hideie saw a Black Dragon Flag appear, he panicked and immediately ordered, "Prepare for battle, prepare for battle!"

However, at this moment, where could the Japanese pirates still care about military orders? Those in the front had already entered the city, while those in the back looked at the Great Gan iron cavalry, their eyeballs nearly popping out.

Because how could there still be people behind after fighting for so long? Oh, it turned out to be Great Gan soldiers; then it was fine, because they were dead for sure!

"Bang!"

Under the trampling of horse hooves, the 5,000 cavalrymen dispersed after charging into the battlefield, tearing open the Japanese pirate lines like three sharp blades.

Looking at the soldiers continuously falling below and the people letting out desperate roars, Ukita Hideie's scalp was tingling.

Because in front of the Great Gan's iron cavalry, their samurai couldn't even organize an effective counterattack.

Swinging the horse-chopping saber in his hand, Zhang Cheng's eyes were filled with cold intent.

"Cao Wenzhao, you go save the King of Goryeo; he cannot die, at the very least, he cannot be killed by the Japanese pirates!"

Shouting at Cao Wenzhao behind him, Zhang Cheng became serious.

And hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Cao Wenzhao immediately nodded.

But in the next second, Zhang Cheng looked at a cavalry unit charging straight toward the distant hill and said in astonishment, "Whose subordinate is this? How are they so fierce!"

"General, that is my nephew Cao Bianjiao!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Cao Wenzhao was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly explained.

Because in the entire army, in terms of martial prowess, who was as fierce as Zhang Cheng before them?

"He is Cao Bianjiao?"

Looking at the fierce man leading 500 warriors to charge straight at the Japanese pirate camp, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but narrow his eyes and say, "Good, if he can win this battle, I will recommend him as a Battalion Commander..."

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Cao Wenzhao immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, General, for your appreciation!"

"This is all due to the soldiers' efforts!"

Speaking indifferently, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but narrow his eyes, because he also wanted to see just how fierce this Cao Bianjiao really was!

Swinging the great spear in his hand, Cao Bianjiao continuously slaughtered the samurai charging up around him.

Watching Cao Bianjiao continuously break through three lines of defense, Ukita Hideie was dumbfounded.

Because was this even a person?

"Kill! Brothers, slaughter the Japanese pirate thieves!"

Roaring loudly, Cao Bianjiao's eyes became incomparably fierce.

Looking at Cao Bianjiao who had already killed his way to the front, Ukita Hideie suddenly thought of one thing, which was that he should probably run, because if he didn't run, he would lose his life!

Watching Ukita Hideie trying to escape, Cao Bianjiao also galloped up on horseback, directly using his spear to knock all the samurai guarding him into the air.

"Japanese pirate, hand over your life!"

Letting out a roar, Cao Bianjiao's long spear thrust out like a poisonous snake.

"Bang bang bang!"

The sound of bird-guns rang out; from several dozen meters away, the supporting samurai roared, "Bastard, don't hurt the Master!" Suffering a gunshot wound, Cao Bianjiao became even angrier after falling from his horse; he rushed up, smashed Ukita Hideie over with one spear, then grabbed his hair and held his long sword against his throat.

Looking at this scene, the samurai who had charged up were all stunned, because how were they supposed to save him?

But before they could prepare to negotiate, the cavalrymen who had charged over drew their swords.

Looking at the Krieger cavalry charging, Cao Bianjiao was stunned in place, because weren't these the General's personal guards?

And before Cao Bianjiao could speak, Zhang Cheng had already ridden up; looking at Ukita Hideie before him, he immediately said, "Cut him! For this battle, you get the first merit!"

"General, your subordinate is just picking up scraps; even if this person didn't die, it wouldn't decide the overall situation!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Cao Bianjiao hurriedly spoke up.

And looking at Cao Bianjiao, Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "You think I'm reprimanding you because I'm reluctant to give up the merit? Hahaha!"

Looking at the young Cao Bianjiao, who was well-versed in the ways of officialdom, Zhang Cheng teased.

"Your subordinate wouldn't dare!"

Rubbing his head awkwardly, Cao Bianjiao lowered his head.

"Alright, it's just a Japanese pirate; what I want isn't this little bit of merit!"

Speaking to Cao Bianjiao, Zhang Cheng immediately had someone swing to cut the flag beside them.

"Crack!"

Accompanied by the fall of the Japanese pirate's great flag, the samurai who were still struggling to resist below were completely panicked, because Lord Ukita Hideie was gone; what were they supposed to do now?

"Encircle, encircle, don't let a single one go! 20 taels of silver, you bunch of spendthrifts!"

Issuing orders on the hill, Zhang Cheng had the messenger behind him wave the flag in his hand.

And upon seeing the order conveyed, the Great Gan soldiers began to gradually block all roads, surrounding the 30,000+ Japanese pirates and beginning the slaughter.

Dragging Ukita Hideie before his horse, Cao Bianjiao kicked him to the ground.

Looking at the Japanese pirates continuously falling below, Ukita Hideie's eyes were blood-red as he said, "Bastards, you, you have no samurai dignity! You are wantonly killing..."

"General, what is he mumbling about?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng curiously, Cao Bianjiao was puzzled.

Looking at Cao Bianjiao, who had been shot by a bullet but was still calm and composed, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but say, "Bianjiao, doesn't it hurt?"

"A little, but I can still hold on!"

Speaking to Zhang Cheng, Cao Bianjiao wore a determined look.

And looking at his appearance, Zhang Cheng finally understood why he could break through three lines of defense against the Tatars and fight fierce generals like Oboi until they had to keep shooting arrows to stop him; because this was a pure brute!

Cao Bianjiao: My Lord, is it appropriate for you to say that about me?

Half an hour later, outside Liujing City, it was a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

The Great Gan soldiers walking about were beheading them to claim military merit.

When the King of Goryeo walked out and saw the terrifying Great Gan soldiers, a look of excitement appeared on his face.

Because these were the people sent by Daddy; they were indeed capable of fighting. Japanese pirates, what were Japanese pirates?

In front of the King of Goryeo, Zhang Cheng had Cao Bianjiao behead him, then smiled and said, "After this battle, the front line will be pushed back; I hope the King of Goryeo can recover the lost territory as soon as possible."

"I will surely complete the General's instructions!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, the King of Goryeo now wished he could hug his thigh, because Daddy was so amazing; the general under him was not only so young but also so capable of fighting!

In Shengjing, Nurhaci looked at the battle report, his eyes filled with solemnity.

Because the Great Gan had actually deployed troops to aid Goryeo.

Stroking his chin, Nurhaci immediately said seriously, "In this battle, Goryeo is attacked from both sides; who is willing to be the vanguard!"

"Father Khan, you must not! Jia Jue is in Goryeo; the Japanese pirates will be slaughtered sooner or later. If we go now, aren't we opening a second front! Attacked from both sides, Father Khan..."

Speaking to Nurhaci, Daishan immediately shouted.

Because it would be one thing if Jia Jue wasn't in Goryeo; he was currently hacking Japanese pirates quite smoothly, but if you rushed over, what if he hacked you together with them?

Gazing at Daishan, everyone on the scene, except for Šurhaci and the Bordered Blue Banner which had been damaged to the point of annihilation, was staring at him in shock, because were you even a Jurchen warrior? How could you say such things?

Daishan: It took me less than three minutes from drawing my sword to shouting for help!

Altonga: I didn't even draw my sword before I ran!
