Chapter 266: Purge

The next day, east of Liaoyang City.

"Yang Yanshi, why are we hiding here?"

Qin Minping asked in a low voice.

They avoided the Haicheng Road from Niuzhuang to the northeast, ran all the way for one hundred and twenty miles, and finally took eight hours to reach Liaoyang, and then they were taken into the mountains and forests by Yang Qing, and then drilled more than ten miles of ravines to get here, that is, the white pole soldiers and mountain people were born, and they were best at this kind of long-distance march, and I am afraid that they would have been tired and vomited blood at this time.

Even then, they were all paralyzed in the darkness around them from exhaustion.

"Wait."

Yang Qing said.

"What are you waiting for?"

Qin Minping said suspiciously.

"Well, I don't know what to wait for."

Yang Qing said very frankly.

He really didn't know what he was waiting for, but whatever he was waiting for, this position was the best right now, and if something happened, he would wait here.

Well, in the darkness in front of him, it is actually a direct road to the Yahu Pass, but at this time, you don't need to go to the Yahu Pass to go to the wild boar skin, Qinghe Fort is already the territory of Jiannu, after seizing Sanyang, the control area of Jiannu has already completely included the border wall south of Fushun Pass, and the defense line of the Ming army only starts from Fengji Fort, and then goes to Weining Camp and Lianshan Pass, which is equivalent to the third line of the original border wall defense system.

The focus of this is on the fortress of Fengji.

Attacking Liaoyang from the Yahu Pass was too difficult for the boar skin.

And the direction of Lianshan Pass can only be used for raiding.

Only entering Fushun Pass to attack Shenyang is the most reasonable, and the first point of attacking Shenyang is to cut off the connection between Shenyang and Liaoyang to complete the encirclement, if you want to do this, you must take Fengji Fort, and then you can cut off the main road of Hupiyi. Similarly, the triangular defense system of Shenyang, Fengji Fort, and Hupiyi is also the core of Liaodong's defense, and everything else is arranged around this core, including the garrison in Kaiyuan, and the significance of Kaiyuan is only to make it impossible for wild boar skins to storm Shenyang.

Because the Ming army of Kaiyuan will stab him in the back.

Those south of the Weining camp were just to prevent Jiannu from sneaking up on Liaoyang and shaking the rear of Shenyang.

As for Yang Qing hiding here to feed the mosquitoes......

"Someone's coming!"

He suddenly shouted in the stone pillar language.

In the surrounding dark mountains and forests, all the white pole soldiers who were resting immediately got up.

On the mountain road under the starlight in the distance, the light of a few torches came from far and near, Yang Qing waved his hand forward, and those white pole soldiers quickly touched it, these mountain people were very skilled in doing this, and they completely quietly completed the lurking in the grass on the side of the road, like a group of lynx staring at those few fires before the attack. Soon, with the sound of galloping horses' hooves, the six horsemen appeared in their ambush range, accompanied by a strange whistle, all the lurking white pole soldiers pounced almost at the same time, and in an instant the six horsemen were overwhelmed by them, and then the six captives were tied up and dragged over with blue noses and swollen faces.

The white-pole soldiers in the back stabbed the wounded horses to death.

"Do you know me?"

Yang Qing said.

The captives nodded tremblingly.

"I don't like people lying, tell me what are you going to do?"

Yang Qing said.

"Yang Yanshi, the small thing is to smuggle some smuggled goods to Jiannu!"

One of them cried.

"Huh!"

Yang Qing took a moment.

"Did anyone tell me that they were different from him?"

He then asked.

The other five looked at each other, and the one just now bowed his head and was silent.

"Kill them!"

Yang Qing said.

A few white-pole soldiers immediately put their knives on the necks of the six.

"I say, I say!"

One of them screamed.

The one before looked at him with a sad and angry face.

"His name is Ma Chenglin, his uncle Ma Rulong is Li Yongfang's family, today I learned that Yang Serv was coming, and he was afraid that Yang Serv would raid his home, so he rushed to Jiannu overnight, wanting to let the wild boar skin send troops over, and the Ma family and the Tong family in the city should let Jiannu capture Liaoyang. Yang Yanshi, the small one is just his family's house slave, and the small one is just following orders, begging Yang Baishi to spare the little life! ”

The man cried.

"Keep them and stab the rest to death!"

Yang Qing said.

That's what he wanted to wait.

He tossed in Guangning for many days, Liaoyang is only more than 300 miles away, and the news can be delivered in one day, not to mention that he is public all the way here, it is impossible for Liaoyang not to know, he used Sun Degong's case to directly say that he cleaned the Guangning family, and now he is coming to Liaoyang with white pole soldiers, the wolf's ambition is obvious, and it is impossible for Liaoyang not to react.

Shi Tingzhu was arrested by him, and Shi Tingzhu's family is all here, his father Shi Han, his two elder brothers Shi Guozhu, Shi Tianzhu are all officers of the Ming Army, as well as this Ma family, as well as the Zhu Shichang family who is a thief, and a gang of the Tong family.

It is impossible for them not to be afraid.

These guys have all been friends with Jiannu for many years.

Since Quang Ninh's side can lead the invaders to invade, then of course their side will too.

Yang Qing is waiting for this.

In this case......

"Who is the Weining Camp Guard?"

Yang Qing asked.

"Yang Zongye."

Qin Minping said.

"Well, forget it, he doesn't have the same temperament!"

Yang Qing said.

Yang Zongye is a native of Shanxi and one of the general soldiers who aided Liao.

In the past two years, the Ming army has continuously mobilized reinforcements from all over the country to Liaodong, but the vast majority of generals actually really brought a small number of elite families, and the rest are just temporarily recruited cannon fodder, and the number of these cannon fodder is actually quite different from the actual number. Xiong Tingbi rectified this problem many times in the past two years, and then these generals recruited locally in order to avoid him being caught, but the meaning of the existence of these cannon fodder was only to fool Xiong Tingbi, and at the same time maintain the establishment for military salaries.

These cannon fodder themselves are mixed rice.

Xiong Tingbi's own description, when the salary was paid, there were people who heard that they were going to the battlefield and ran for thirty percent, and before they reached the battlefield, half of them were left, and they scattered in a hurry on the battlefield.

Such a person can't disguise himself as a slave, and he can see it if he ranks up outside the city, not to mention anything else.

In the Ming army, except for the Qi Jin Department, which does not eat empty salaries, the white pole soldiers who do not need to eat empty salaries, and the Cao Wenzhao Department, which is heavily funded to build Xiong Tingbi personally presided over the training, all other departments have this situation more or less, how much. The most ruthless is He Shixian in Shenyang, and there are only 3,000 people in his department who can really fight, but his Shenyang army has reached 40,000 on the books. But he is really capable of fighting, and his three thousand elites really dare to fight against Jiannu, so Xiong Tingbi has endured it, at most beating it from time to time, so that he doesn't go too far.

"Yang Yanshi wants people to disguise themselves as slaves?"

Qin Minping immediately understood his sinister intentions.

I have to say that Yang is always so imaginative.

"Then why not really?"

He said.

"yes, why don't I have to be real? It's not like I don't have it! ”

Yang Qingqing immediately smiled.

Indeed, he is not without truth!

It is too difficult to let the Ming army pretend to build slaves, but can't you let the slaves pretend to build slaves? Of course it's not Mao Wenlong's subordinates, they are too far away, and those under Mao Wenlong have already cut their tails at his suggestion, so they are all bald at present. But the Yehe troops were still the same, and the 5,000 Yehe cavalry in Delgrad and the 3,000 Ming troops of Huang Degong's troops were stationed at Mashi Fort in Quang Ninh, and from there, with the quality of these cavalry, they could run over in a day and a night.

But there is the Liao River in the middle!

As for the Hunhe River and the Clam River, it is not difficult to solve, the depth of these two rivers is limited, and in some shallow places, the cavalry should be able to wade through the water on horseback, but the Liao River is really impossible.

Unless......

"I'm going to gather men, you are lurking in this area for the time being, don't come out tomorrow, cut off all messengers on this road, prevent them from continuing to send people to Jiannu, and block all roads around Liaoyang from tomorrow when it gets dark, and no one is allowed to pass until we arrive."

Yang Qing said.

He thought about how to solve the problem of crossing the Liao River.

Go directly to Niuzhuang and let his merchant ships go north, and build pontoon bridges in advance in the Changlinzi area, his Kaiyuan quartermaster transport team has hundreds of ships all year round, and at least forty or fifty ships in Niuzhuang at this time, these boats carry planks and ropes to connect themselves, and then find anchors on the Liao River with gentle currents, which can basically form a temporary pontoon bridge. Anyway, it's not for a long time, it's just through the five thousand cavalry, just disband it directly after the past, so it's almost okay, tonight overnight to Niuzhuang, tomorrow these ships will go north from Niuzhuang out of the side wall, and the concealment outside the side wall is enough.

Then enter the side wall at night in the yellow mud valley, and march under the city of Liaoyang at night.

During this period, Qin Minping's white pole soldiers were responsible for cutting off the yellow mud depression along the way to report to Liaoyang, and it was only sixty or seventy miles to the left and right, and the messengers would not be so efficient.

Then this Jiannu, disguised by Jiannu, can raid Liaoyang.

The rest depends on the cooperation of the city, but in any case, since they saw the Jiannu soldiers coming to the city, those guys in the city will definitely take the opportunity to do it, it is best to make a big fuss and get involved as much as possible, so that it will be more refreshing to copy the house.

These tumors in Liaoyang must be removed.

The city must be purified, or it will be a hidden danger after all.

Originally, the vast majority of the families in Liaoyang surrendered in history, and they all surrendered very simply, the Ma family was the main internal response, not to mention the Tong family, not to mention the Shi family, the Zhu Shichang family, the Luo family, etc., and even included a Ning Wan I who was comparable to Fan Wencheng. When we entered Liaoyang in the Qing Dynasty, there were indeed a bunch of people who died in battle or committed suicide, and the general soldiers died in Liaoyang, but there is also a very embarrassing fact that if the people are waiting for Zhang Ju, women are also dressed to welcome the door.

This is what the big families in the city taught them.

These battlefields are about to collapse at the touch of a button, and when defending the city, the rats lie under the eaves of the wall, and the guy who runs out to greet the enemy as soon as he enters the city is not good to clean, and the city will be destroyed sooner or later, so he simply takes the opportunity to have a thorough cleansing.

"I'll leave it to you!"

Yang Qing patted Qin Minping on the shoulder and said.

The latter nodded in order.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Qing drilled out of the mountain forest and began to go straight southwest to Niuzhuang, which was more than 100 miles away.
