Chapter 193: Xiong Tingbi's Choice
Since the first month of this year, Amin has failed to besiege Phi Dao, and he has lost his troops and lost his troops, so he withdrew from Phi Dao and raided North Korea.
The current Korean kingdom is a big and small place, the party competition is more fierce than the Ming Dynasty, and the military equipment is more slack than the Ming Dynasty's guards, and in less than a month, it was beaten and abandoned to abandon the city, and even the king ran to Yizhou.
See, this is the rhythm of being beaten to the country.
North Korea died or voted for Amin, which is absolutely unacceptable to the Ming Dynasty, and Mao Wenlong has his own sorrows and helplessness.
Compared with Amin, his Dongjiang army is alone, and it is okay to defend the island, and it is taboo to go out to reinforce North Korea in the field.
Amin's Houjin army successively conquered Yizhou and Dingzhou, and then besieged Tieshan, resulting in the two parts of the Dongjiang army being cut off.
Tieshan fell, his family died, and Mao Wenlong had no worries, so he let go of the girl and beat him.
Coincidentally, the Emperor of the Apocalypse was also unwilling to give up Korea, and the oracle arrived in Denglai in February this year and ordered Yuan Keli to support the Dongjiang Army.
After taking the Iron Mountain, Amin, who was already arrogant, was even more unsightly.
In his opinion, Mao Wenlong's Dongjiang Army is just a bedbug that can be crushed to death at any time, and there is nothing to worry about at all.
Mao Wenlong got Denglai's supplies, and his morale was greatly boosted.
After Amin withdrew, he rushed to the ruins of Tieshan and cleaned up, and Mao Wenlong led the remnants of the defeated army and was ordered to aid North Korea.
At this time, the DPRK seemed to have relieved itself, mobilized troops and horses from all walks of life, recruited peasants and bandits on the spot, and pressed all the brains up.
Seeing that the country was about to die, the Korean people also united to fight against Jin.
Soon, Mao Wenlong discovered that the North Korean army was really a plate of scattered sand, gathered 50,000 people, and let Amin's 3,000 slaves ride in a field battle and be defeated with one blow.
The frontal battlefield can't rely on them, but on the side and behind it, they can also rely on the location, people, and people to disturb Amin.
That's all Mao Wenlong can count on North Korea to do.
In February of the first year of the Apocalypse, when the imperial court was busy with the palace test and the emperor's eldest son came to the world, the Dongjiang Army and the Korean Army defeated Amin's main force in Uiju and recovered the entire territory of Uiju.
Now is the time for them to launch a major counteroffensive.
Outside the city of Liaoyang, there is a light snow, and the frozen city wall makes this place like an ice cellar.
Fortunately, after Hong Chengchou became the governor of Liaodong, although Xiong Tingbi and Xiong Tingbi of Liaodong Economic Strategy could not agree on everything, they could also help each other in the decision of major matters.
Under the strategy of defending the city insisted on by these two people, Jiannu was not allowed to advance an inch, and Yuan Keli of Denglai looked at each other across the sea, and the displaced people returned, and the hearts of the people were still warm.
Xiong Tingbi had just returned from a tour of the city, wearing armor, and was sitting by the fireplace to roast the fire, and all the generals were silent, not knowing what they were thinking.
Although the house is warm, the charcoal stove here in Liaodong always makes people feel suffocated in their chests, Xiong Tingbi came up, and he ignored everyone's dissuasion and stepped into the flying snowflakes again.
Breathing in the cool fresh air, Xiong Tingbi breathed a sigh of relief.
Ordinary people say that the bitter cold land of the frontier is not a good place to go, but he regards this place as a treasure.
Walking on the road with his hands in his hands, Xiong Tingbi looked around and saw that on the streets of Liaoyang City, there were only a few pedestrians walking loosely.
In the depths of the river in the distance, there is a vast and clean area, silver dust falls from the sky, and birds and insects are singing.
If it weren't for the wartime, the scenery of Liaodong often made people feel refreshed and happy, and they felt emotional, but now Xiong Tingbi has no intention of enjoying the scenery.
The last time I received a report from Tang, saying that the slave chief Nurha's red soldiers surrounded Tieshan and killed Mao Wenlong's family.
At that time, Liaoyang was also rumored, and at the end of the year, the cold was even worse, the glacier was solid, and the slaves were galloping back and forth, unstoppable.
Even if you send troops to help, it will not help.
When he was in a trance, Cao Wenzhao rushed to him and shouted loudly: "Taitai, the secret letter of Wei Zhongxian, the commander of Dongchang, has arrived!" ”
Xiong Tingbi's eyelids jumped.
Cao Wenzhao was nervous in his heart, he knew that this Taitai had always said what he had to say, and this reaction at this time was only afraid that Wei Zhongxian's purpose was not pure.
Xiong Tingbi stabilized his mentality, thought about it for a while, but let go of the cold in his heart against the eunuchs, and took it in his hand and looked at it.
Shao leaning, Cao Wenzhao asked:
"But a good thing?"
Xiong Tingbi put the letter on the torch and burned it, and said with a smile:
"It's okay for you to say it's good, but it's okay to say it's bad."
Cao Wenzhao looked at him quietly, looked back at the group of Liao soldiers patrolling behind him, and swallowed the question that came to his lips.
"The last general didn't read this letter, whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, it's all up to Taiwan to decide!"
Xiong Tingbi chuckled, his tone full of mockery.
"Wei Zhongxian asked me to testify and killed Liu Zongzhou and Zuo Guangdou..."
Hearing this, Cao Wenzhao was a little shocked, lost his sense of proportion for a while, and hurriedly asked: "What does that Taitai think?" ”
"These two important ministers of the court were the vanguard of impeaching me a year ago!" Xiong Tingbi sneered, but suddenly changed his words and asked:
"Is the good news ready?"
Cao Wenzhao took out the good news from the belt and said, "I have prepared it." ”
Immediately, he read it.
"The slave soldiers besieged Liaoyang for more than a month, and they retreated in several battles. Our army has 296 heads, 3 female slaves, and 17 live slaves..."
"Well, yes, the sealing inspection is successful, report to the military department!"
After Xiong Tingbi finished speaking, he turned his head and asked, "If you have something to say, don't swallow it." ”
Cao Wenzhao voiced his long-standing doubts.
"This time, Yuan Chonghuan was ordered to come to help, and the victory was also the fastest, and our good news has not yet been prepared, and his has been sent to Beijing."
"Moreover, Yuan Chonghuan said in the good news that General Hongyi of the city shelled the Nurhachi camp, wounded the slave chieftain, and captured more than 3,000 slaves."
"This..."
"Do you want to say that Yuan Chonghuan's good news is exaggerated!" Xiong Tingbi snorted coldly, his face full of disdain, and said:
"Yuan Chonghuan, although he has the ability, he has no one in his eyes, and he is arrogant and arrogant!"
"He said that the general shelled the slave chieftain's camp and forced the slave soldiers to retreat, but in this land of Liaodong, which general with a little common sense doesn't know, it is cold and freezing, and the slave soldiers can't dig the ground!"
"Let him exaggerate and report it, we won't fight for this merit!"
Xiong Tingbi spoke, Cao Wenzhao suddenly opened his mouth, and hugged his fists:
"What Taitai said, the last general will keep it in mind, it's just Wei Zhongxian's matter, how to reply?"
This stubble can't be bypassed.
Hearing this, Xiong Tingbi walked to the city wall, put his hand on the heavy masonry, and looked at the white sky in the distance, his heart was entangled.
For private reasons, he can't wait to dismantle the hypocrites like Liu Zongzhou and Zuo Guangdou!
But Yu Gong, at present, the eunuch party is powerful, and the court needs to leave a part of the Donglin party to check and balance, which is the result that the emperor wants.
Xiong Tingbi is an acute child, but this does not mean that in the struggle between the DPRK and the political party, he is a stunned young man who doesn't understand anything!
......
"This Xiong Tingbi doesn't know what to do!"
After receiving the reply, Wei Zhongxian was angry.
I thought it was a sure thing, but I didn't think about it, but there was a mistake in Xiong Tingbi's link, and this kid almost let the Donglin Party impeach to death last year.
Now instead of taking revenge, Our Lady has risen.
"Xiong Tingbi refused his uncle's intention at this time, could it be that he wanted to join the Donglin Party and be our enemy?"
Fu Yingxing began to fan the flames on the sidelines.
Wei Zhongxian's face was gloomy, unmoved, and said calmly: "If it weren't for the emperor's need for him to guard Liaodong, this governor really wanted to tear him alive!" ”
Hearing that Wei Zhongxian didn't want to tear his face with Xiong Tingbi, Fu Yingxing also stopped in time and asked:
"That's... Uncle, what now? ”
"There's nothing to do now, Li Ruoxing did it first, Wang Wenyan was imprisoned, kept him, and always dealt with a big card in the Donglin Party."
"Wang Wenyan's case, it will continue to drag on!"
