Chapter 441: Tactics
At dawn, the wind and snow seemed to be resting, and it was extremely cold, and the heavens and the earth seemed to be frozen.
Chang Yu got up early in the morning, but found that Wu Zhong was earlier, he had been practicing boxing in the courtyard, watched for a while, and also took off his clothes and began to box.
The two of them met each other when they practiced, and then they did it again, fists and feet to the tiger, it was a real fight!
"You, you scoundrel, that Taoist priest must also be a scoundrel to pass on this scoundrel boxing technique" Wu Zhong was locked on the ground and couldn't move, his face was bruised, whenever he had the upper hand, Chang Yu was about to run out, he used ground tactics, and locked him in a few clicks, but he was angry, and he suddenly forgot to scold with respect and humility.
The little eunuch was not angry, let go of him and laughed: "That Taoist priest is passing on internal strength, and this boxing technique is self-taught by the governor and pondered by himself."
The hot water in the wooden barrel was just right, Chang Yu was lying in it squinting and enjoying it very much, he found that the bath healed the wound faster, especially some bruises, he fought with Wu Zhong, with the fierceness of Bajiquan, he suffered a lot, at this time, with a shot of hot water, a stick of incense, the bruises were gone.
Xiao Ran is here again, as the commander of the Jinyi Guard in Ningyuan, he has to report to the big man of Dongchang about the trivial things that happen every day in the city: the standard-bearers trained by Wu Sangui have been sent to the mountains, the Gongzi battalion has been camped in the cave and built some simple fortifications, surveyed the terrain, and Wu Sangui's subordinate generals ran to the camp to gamble money last night without being on duty, and they were whipped thirty in the morning, and the beating was miserable.
"Focus on this person, if there is any abnormal movement, cut it directly!" Chang Yu, who was squinting, opened his mouth lightly, very timely, very means.
"Tang Tong's men and horses will arrive in Ningyuan City at the latest in half an hour, I heard that they had a fight with the mountain bandits last night, it is said that the mountain bandits saw that they were embarrassed, and they couldn't help but move, but they didn't want to be abused."
"Isn't it embarrassing?" The little eunuch couldn't help but ask with a smile.
"Like a lost dog," Xiao Ran said seriously: "It's miserable to look at."
The little eunuch snorted, Tang Tong's acting skills are a bit condescending not to sing, but after all, his patience is insufficient, if he has a game with those bandits, it will be perfect, but this little flaw is not hidden.
At that time, there were gradually more black spots in the white snow in the southwest of Ningyuan City, stretching for more than ten miles, Chang Yu and Wu Sangui, who were looking forward to the city, immediately went down to the city, turned over and rode south with their own soldiers.
Tang Tong's men are coming.
is indeed as embarrassed as Xiao Ran said, like a lost dog, and even the main general Tang Tong came to him, Chang Yu was stunned and didn't recognize it, running thousands of miles, braving the stars, withstanding the wind and snow, there is no need to pretend to be attacked and lose the battle, it is simply his true colors!
"Lord Overseer, fortunately not dishonored, Chief Wu Bing, don't come unharmed" Tang Tong's face was blue and purple, his lips were chapped and peeled, and he dismounted and hugged his fists in front of the two of them.
Tang Tong and Wu Sangui are old acquaintances, two years ago the two of them participated in the Songjin War with Hong Chengchou, after the defeat of the two forgot about each other in the rivers and lakes, now goodbye, it is the old place to revisit the other to say that there is no way to clean up and mess up.
As for Chang Yu was naturally happy to see Tang Tong, although he was not a fierce general, but he was obedient, Chongzhen ordered King Qin, and he came to Beijing by himself, Chang Yu said a word, he worked tirelessly for thousands of miles to attack outside the pass, how can there be such an obedient general in Daming today.
Along with Tang Tong's department, there were also three thousand elite cavalry of Gao Di, who entered the city one after another and went straight to the barracks to rest, Wu Sangui sent Shen Jianghu to be responsible for the placement, and then welcomed Tang Tong into the general military mansion and set up a banquet to wash the wind and wash the dust.
The north is bitter cold, there is a shortage of food and vegetables, the banquet is simple, and no wine is served, but for Tang Tong, who has been weathered all the way, it is already a delicacies of the mountains and seas, and the one that is eaten is called a fragrant, and Chang Yu, who has just eaten it for a long time, actually swallowed saliva when he saw it.
After the meal, Tang Tong took a short rest, Chang Yu and Wu Sangui entered the military camp to comfort Tang Tong's people, such things are rare in this era, but Chang Yu is going, Wu Sangui has no choice but to accompany him, but he doesn't know how much impact this seemingly simple act will have on the morale of the army.
After some tossing, it was already noon, the two went back to the General Soldier's Mansion to get some food, Tang Tong woke up at this time and then ate again, and said that Gao Di was always sad now, and he did his best to play the big scene of the melee at the pass, and he didn't forget to let him talk to the little eunuch, he was loyal to the Ming Dynasty and would never rebel, which caused Wu Sangui and the little eunuch to laugh.
After the meal, as soon as the door was closed, there was a topographic map of Ningyuan's surroundings in front of the three of them, which was made by the little eunuch.
Chongzhen is a big shopkeeper, in a word, Chang Yu supervises the border of the army, gets his own food, and the soldiers make it their own, except for Tang Tong's 8,000 men and horses, and asks for food to bring the 5,000 men and horses of the Shenji Battalion, and then a message, Li Yan took more than 10,000 soldiers to help, and went to Shanhaiguan to forcibly seize the cavalry of Gao Dixian, plus Wu Sangui's Ning Yuan army, now there are nearly 60,000 soldiers on hand, and the strength of the Qing army mixed with water must not be too different.
However, Ningyuan City is small, and it can't let go of so many people!
Tomorrow at the latest, the men and horses of the Shenji Battalion will also return, and most of Li Yan's men and horses will also arrive within seven days......
At present, Chang Yu has two problems to solve, first, where to put the soldiers, and second, the supply and storage of grain and grass.
Yuan Governor had only 20,000 soldiers and horses that year, and at the beginning of each battle, he commanded the Qing army to suppress the rear of the Qing army remotely with artillery and bows and arrows, and then Zu Dashou and Man Gui went out of the city in a short and bloody battle, and finally retreated from the enemy with this tactic.
And now that the little eunuch has learned the tactics of the sages, and improved it into a real combination of inside and outside, he wants to garrison troops outside the city, and there is more than one!
The garrison may be surrounded and annihilated by the Qing army, but a few more people and horses are stationed outside, taking care of each other, the Qing army wants to eat but it has to worry about knocking teeth, and at the same time, the grain and grass can be stored in various departments to alleviate the congestion in the city.
But the garrison is in many places, and the Qing army can also break through each one, and two years ago, the Qing army ended up in this way, so that the Ming army's defense network completely collapsed.
"Songxing Tower, the three cities are dead, but the governor's men and horses are alive" Chang Yu chuckled: "And except for the palace camp, the rest of the troops will not reveal their whereabouts unless they have to."
It seems that the little eunuch has started to play tricks, Tang Tong and Wu Sangui glanced at each other, but they wondered where to hide in this icy and snowy place, where can there be tens of thousands of people at every turn.
How can there be a march and formation that does not endure hardships and suffering, the kind of examples of sleeping in the open for ten days and a half months in order to fight an ambush war are too many examples, this bit of suffering can not stand the battle of p, the Red Army is tired of 25,000 miles, and the little devil suffers from eating ice slag in the mountains for half a month in order to ambush the national army
What's more, Chang Yu now has a team of people who are fond of climbing mountains and drilling forests and are accustomed to it, Li Yanbu.
Tang Tong and Wu Sangui suddenly realized in their hearts, no wonder why the little eunuch had come all the way to transfer Li Yanbu, it turned out that he had already planned, and maybe even when he received the holy decree, he had already begun to think about how to deal with the enemy.
Sure enough, Chang Yu pointed to the topographic map and began to map out his battle plan for the two.
"Once the Qing army is brought over, you can first fight a surprise battle, the Qing army will inevitably suffer a loss if it is caught off guard, and this small victory can be used to boost the morale of the army, as for how to fight this surprise battle, we will discuss it later."
"At present, the focus is on tearing up the skin with Dolgon, the Qing army will inevitably attack Ningyuan City, with the tactics used by the Qing army, before attacking the city, it will inevitably cut off its rear road support, so," Chang Yu's hand pointed to the southwest of Ningyuan: "Dolgon wants to cut off the connection between Ningyuan and Guannei, and will inevitably deploy a force between Ningyuan and Shanhaiguan."
"Zhonghou Office, the overseer said that we will deploy a group of men and horses in Zhonghou to prevent the Qing army from breaking off?" Tang Tong comprehended, but Wu Sangui frowned.
Zhonghou Institute, also called Zhonghou City, that is, Suizhong County in later generations, the Qing Dynasty had a separate name called Shamao City, but at this time it was a thousand households used to garrison soldiers, and because it was swept by the Qing army last year, the Ming army was killed more than 4,000 and captured thousands, and now it is almost equal to a ruin.
"In the middle and rear of the city for several abandoned cities, the number of troops is embarrassing, the troops are scattered and our troops, and the two places are separated by hundreds of miles, and if the Qing army breaks one by one, what is the difference between the pine, apricot, and tower ,...... in the Songjin War."
Wu Sangui's words made the three of them look solemn.
