"Damn Yuan Dazui, he died very quickly, otherwise Lao Tzu would have to let you go around without eating." Xiong Tingbi slammed his fist on the table and shouted angrily, not relenting at all because the other party was dead.

He was really angry in his heart, this Yuan Yingtai was really an idiot, he had told him countless times, don't let the Mongols outside the city come in, don't let them in, let them starve to death outside, just don't listen, now it's good, Shenyang has fallen, and the whole army with sixty or seventy thousand defenders has been wiped out.

The square solid wood table was shaken by Xiong Tingbi's hammer, and he really couldn't help the anger in his heart, so he could only vent like this, and it took a long time for him to calm down.

"Put on my armor and patrol the barracks." Xiong Tingbi ordered in a cold voice, and the servant next to him, who was too frightened to come over just now, immediately stepped forward and put on armor for Lord Jingluo.

After getting dressed neatly, Xiong Tingbi went to the barracks to inspect the barracks, and it was already 15 March, three days after March 12, when Shenyang was attacked, and the news of the fall of Shenyang had spread.

The whole barracks was filled with the sound of grinding knives, and the morale of the officers and soldiers was very high, especially after Xiong Tingbi came to inspect, the soldiers asked for battle, and he was very pleased to see this scene.

After the battle of Salhu, the elite of Liaodong was lost, and now this situation of strong soldiers and horses is all trained by Lord Liuxiong of Liaodong. After coming out of the barracks, Xiong Tingbi was obviously in a much better mood, Erlang was here, if that Nuer Hachi dared to come to attack, he would definitely be called back.

After going around the city, he went up to the city again, standing at the head of the city, he looked at the black and oppressive frozen soil outside, and was distracted, as if he could see Shenyang in this way. At this time, the gate of Liaoyang City was not closed, but was wide open, constantly collecting the defeated soldiers who retreated from the front line and the people who fled.

At present in Liaodong, there are only two big cities left in the Ming Dynasty, Liaoyang and Shenyang, and now Shenyang has fallen, there is only one city left in Liaoyang, if the city is lost again, the Ming Dynasty will have no danger to defend in Liaodong.

Therefore, the safety of Liaoyang is extremely important, and it is related to the war situation in the entire Liaodong.

At this time, a quarrel broke out in the city of Shenyang.

In the big tent of the Chinese army where Nuer Hachi was sitting, several big Baylors kept saying their opinions.

"Fight, you must fight, Liaoyang is the center of the entire Liaodong, how much wealth is there!" Amin's eyes lit up and he shouted loudly, and he was full of supplies he had looted after taking Shenyang. It is precisely because of this that after the fall of Shenyang, the Jurchens did not march immediately, but stayed for three days in the original plan.

"I also think I can fight." Dai Shan pointed to the map, "Shenyang is lost, the Ming Dynasty only has a lonely city in Liaodong, if Liaoyang is laid, the Ming Kingdom will have no city to defend, and then Liaodong is so big, let me gallop." ”

Dai Shan made a gesture for a while, and explained the whole situation clearly, several people here are all veterans, and they have not stopped since the start of the army, and they are experienced, so they naturally understand the current situation. There is only one Liaoyang left in the Ming Kingdom, if it can be won in one go......

Thinking about this situation, several people in the military tent suddenly became short of breath, and Mang Gurtai also had red eyes, and shouted at Nuer Hachi, "Great Khan, you must take Liaoyang, I am willing to be the vanguard." ”

Among the four major beylers, only Huang Taiji had not yet spoken, he looked at the map, the information of the Ming Kingdom kept circling in his mind, and after a while, he slowly spoke, "Great Khan, I think this matter should be postponed, and the population and grain of Shenyang should be transported back, survive the spring famine, recuperate, and wait for the opportunity to fight again." ”

It should be said that Huang Taiji's words are still very reasonable, and when he has a harvest, he will go home to recuperate and recuperate, and fight again, instead of being like a gambler, continuing and hoping to win more.

However, the few people who were doing it were fascinated by the harvest in Shenyang and couldn't see anything else at all.

"Fourth, if you're afraid, don't go, just a few of us can go, the southern barbarians are so weak, there are not many of you, and there are no more of you." This is Amin.

"Yes, yes, let's just go, you just guard Shenyang." This is Mang Gurtu.

"Great Khan, Liaoyang, there is no city to defend in the Ming Kingdom, and when the time comes, the entire Liaodong will be ours, and the Great Khan should be able to build a country and become the emperor." This is Dai Shan, his expression is excited, and his eyes are shining.

The shouts of several people instantly plunged the big tent into a frenzied atmosphere, and it was obvious that Nuer Hachi, who had not spoken all this time, was also affected. He raised his hand, suppressed all the quarrels, and then said in a deep voice, "I have decided to send troops to Liaoyang." ”

Rumble!

The Jurchen's iron hooves roared, and under the leadership of Nuer Hachi, the rolling torrent headed towards Liaoyang.

Liaoyang is not very far from Shenyang, if you are fast, you will arrive in half a day, standing at the head of the city, Xiong Tingbi looked at the torrent in the sky with a solemn face, and the roar came from there.

"Here comes the Tartars!"

Within three days, he didn't just do it, the troops stationed in the castles of the guards in various places had been pulled out by him and gathered in Liaoyang, Xiong Tingbi also saw the current situation, Liaoyang was lost, and the situation collapsed. The top priority is to hold Liaoyang City, and the rest of the city can be recaptured after it is lost.

Turning his head, he looked at the fifty or sixty thousand soldiers and horses and a large number of soldiers and civilians in the city, these people gave Xiong Tingbi great confidence, "Nuer Hachi, this time you will not come back." ”

Rumble!

The red-coated cannon at the head of the city fired, huge cannonballs were fired, ploughing a few blood marks, and the battle of Liaoyang broke out. At the same time, several fast horses left through the back door and rushed to Jingshi.

"Wait?"

Several people looked at Sun Chengzong, their eyes full of puzzlement.

"That's right, now that the situation in Liaodong is unclear, it is not appropriate to make a rash decision, and after there is a more detailed military report, a final conclusion will be made. However, His Majesty should be prepared in advance, and send troops to support at any time to clean up the mess. Sun Chengzong explained.

"Then let's do this first, everyone prepares supplies, rearmament for battle, and waits for more detailed news." Zhu Youxiao ordered.

Three days later, 800 miles urgently brought a more detailed military report, and Zhu Youxiao once again convened the cabinet scholars to discuss. In fact, if the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is perfect, it is more appropriate to focus on the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, but now that the organization is unknown, it can only be like this first.

When the five cabinet scholars did not come, Zhu Youxiao was not idle, but stared at the military map and watched intently, Shenyang fell, and in the entire Liaodong, only Liaoyang was left as the big stronghold of the Ming army. If Liaoyang is lost, the Ming army will be defeated all the way and give up the entire Northeast Plain.

This is extremely unfavorable in terms of strategic posture.

From the map, the terrain of the whole Northeast is very interesting, the Great Khing'an Mountains, the Small Khing'an Mountains and the Changbai Mountains enclose the northwest and east sides of the entire Northeast Plain (Songnen Plain, Liaohe Plain), the south is the sea, the entire Northeast, only in the southwest there is a flat and narrow strip connecting the Beijing North China and the entire Northeast.

This is the famous West Liaoning Corridor, the bottom of the West Liaoning Corridor, is the first pass in the world, Shanhaiguan. If the Jurchens wanted to enter from here, it would be almost impossible.

"Interesting, really interesting." Thinking back to the terrain of the Northeast in later generations, combined with the current map, Zhu Youxiao was amazed, the magical terrain made him have a bold plan in his mind.
