When tens of thousands of Jianzhou Eight Banners Army appeared on the border of the Yehe tribe, the entire Yehe was shocked. The forces of all parties in the entire northern Liaodong have focused their attention on the land of Yehe, after all, the murderous and bloodthirsty burning of the nineteen cities of Beiguan by the Jianzhou soldiers five years ago is still vivid. If it weren't for the reaction of the Ming Dynasty last time, Ye He might have been finished a long time ago.

Now that Houjin and Daming have openly turned their faces, the Jianzhou soldiers no longer have any scruples. After Nurhachi used force against the Ming Dynasty, it seemed that he wanted to complete the great cause of unifying the Jurchen tribes before the Ming army's large-scale retaliation. After all, the Haixi Jurchens are now only left with the surname Yehenara, and they are still not subjugated at the foot of Jianzhou.

Of course, this is just people's conjecture, at the same time that the main force of Jianzhou arrived on the east bank of the Kelsai River with great fanfare and set up camp under the village, the 2,000 soldiers and horses under the Zhenglan Banner have quietly moved south under the leadership of the banner lord Mang Ergutai, crossing the entire territory of Yehebu through the mountains and forests, and penetrating deep into the gable of Zhenbei Pass.

The side wall of Zhenbei Pass is not solid, in fact, it is rammed earth inside and stones are piled up outside. It's not high, it's generally three or four meters tall, and the low place is even less than three meters. After more than ten years of wind, frost, snow and rain, it has long been dilapidated. It's just a more dangerous place on the mountain beam, which seems to be easy to defend and difficult to attack, but in fact it is just a symbolic meaning.

According to the regulations, the Qianli Great Wall in Liaodong is responsible for the garrison of Yanbian Forts in sections, but for a long time, the armament has been lax, the rules have long existed in name only, and the border is not very peaceful, and no one wants to come to such a bird place to drink the wind.

But now it was different, a group of Ming light horsemen wearing iron and cotton armor patrolled unhurriedly along the gable roots on this side. These Ming soldiers are in bright armor and full of spirit, although they are ten people and a small flag, but they look quite strong, obviously different from those guards who are listless and thin all day long in Yanbian Fort.

The horses marched slowly in the loose formation characteristic of scouts, and the knights looked vigilant, looking left and right from time to time. But the mountain road is difficult to walk, and they are more often driving the horses under their crotches not to step on the bare rocks and cause the horses to stumble. So they didn't know that on a certain section of the gable wall, a man covered in branches and weeds was lying quietly, watching their every move.

Then, he quietly waved his hand behind him. Under the hillside behind, hundreds of Jurchen archers armed with strong bows and wearing animal skin robes appeared at the same time, rushing towards the wall on the mountain.

Of course, such a big movement can't hide the ears and eyes of the scouts, and the Ming army banner always pulls the reins, and when he listens carefully, his face suddenly changes greatly. There seemed to be a large number of people and horses approaching quickly behind his side, and when he subconsciously turned around, he happened to see a guy who was suddenly juggling a large black pressure above the side wall overgrown with weeds in the original broken stone cracks, hundreds of strong bows had been drawn, and the iron arrows that flashed with cold light were already aimed at him and his subordinates.

"Huh!?" Mr. Qi's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and the huge murderous aura that came to his face almost stopped him from breathing, and he couldn't even tremble involuntarily before he could even be afraid. But after all, he was a veteran of rigorous training, and after a brief blank in his mind, the great fear of death made him finally have the strength to shout.

"Not good! There is an ambush! Run......"

The words became a scream of pitch change, and a powerful arrow pierced through his cotton armor with the sound of the wind breaking through the air, piercing deep into the back of his heart, and the blood mist sprayed in the air. He shook twice, then several arrows in his head, and his mount fell to the ground with a screaming scream.

The rest of the scouts were also experienced veterans, and when they saw their leader being shot off their horses, they knew that they would die today. Some bent their bows and arrows to pull a cushion, while others pulled up the side cards to cover their figures, desperately beating their horses and preparing to turn around and run away. But while they were in a mess, the archers on the hill did not give them any chance, and the arrows rained down, and the air was filled with a terrible whistle of breaking through the air, and the screams and neighings of men and horses were repeated, and the farthest of the scouts only ran less than a hundred paces before being shot into hedgehogs by the arrows.

After calming down together, there were only a dozen corpses of Ming soldiers and war horses walking on the hillside, each of which was filled with feathered arrows. Blood flowed down the shafts of the arrows, staining the ground beneath him.

The archers stopped shooting, and then methodically began to climb over the wall by ladders, and soon hundreds of people invaded the territory of the Liaodong controlled area of the Ming Dynasty in groups. Then it immediately spread, eyeing the surroundings with fierce vigilance.

Then, the low and broken earthen walls on the hill finally reached the end of their lives, and hundreds of Jurchen strong men held large stone shovels, or iron rods and sickles in their hands, and pushed them together, and pushed down the broken wall, pulling out several large holes several zhang wide, and the gables fell down violently, and the gravel and soil lumps rolled down the hillside, making the dust fly and smoke miasma.

On the side outside the wall, more than 2,000 heroic elite soldiers were covered with black pressure all over the hillside, although there were many people, there was silence, but the air was full of killing intent, but the sense of oppression of black pressure made people feel that this was the terrifying calm before the storm. Everyone wore armor and held swords and bows, just waiting for the banner owner to give an order, they were about to cross the Great Wall and advance to the side of the Ming Dynasty.

In the array, Ergutai was also draped all over his body, wearing blue iron wire cotton cover chain mail, holding a fine iron rod, and his expression was complicated.

This time, all the elite soldiers he brought in were in the Blue Banner, which was a real opportunity to show his face. Although nearly half of these people will soon be transferred out to form the "Iron Leader Army", he believes that as long as this errand is done well and pleases his father Nurhachi, these losses can definitely be recovered. You may even get several times the benefits.

After all, his target this time was Jianzhou's biggest enemy: Yang Hao, the governor of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty. The weight of this kind of role is not comparable to Zhang Chengyin's goods, as long as he can get rid of him smoothly, it is equivalent to making a miracle of the world, and the glory and wealth of the sky are at your fingertips.

It's a pity that my expeditionary team is gone, otherwise, I would be more sure. This kind of sneak robbery and plagiarism is what it does best.

Ergutai thought of his secret army that had almost been wiped out, and even more remembered the two damned evil Han people of the Smelling Fragrance Sect, who had completely destroyed his elite soldier by using the evil law. He almost spared his own life, and the roots of his teeth began to itch again.

Damn, I once sent someone to secretly hunt down and kill those two Han people, but they returned in vain. No trace of them was found on the mountain roads leading to the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming army would not let go of these two people, how did they escape? Could it be that it is relying on those mysterious and unpredictable evil arts?

I must kill them when I have the opportunity in the future......

Just as he was thinking, the sentinel who had infiltrated the front to inquire about the military situation came back and brought back exciting news. Just fifteen miles ahead, a large number of Han Chinese troops were found in a small valley, brightly lit and heavily guarded day and night. And you can faintly see a very exquisite and luxurious Yangzi flag. According to the news from Qingyang Fort, the Ming army there were all elite troops transferred from Tieling, and many tools and utensils such as hammers, shovels, wooden beams, etc. were also requisitioned in the fort, which is said to survey the terrain there and prepare to build a new camp military village.

"Yingpan military village? Hmph, bullshit! A few words popped out between his teeth. Is there still a small number of military castles in Yanbian of the Ming army? It's another one that's useless, and if it's repaired, no one can be found to garrison it. Now there are not enough soldiers in the interior, let alone transfer to such a barren land.

The so-called camp repair is definitely just an excuse to cover people's ears and eyes, and the real purpose must be to excavate. Could it really be the Gao Huai Tibetan gold that the old man said? It must be so, there is no other explanation. The scout cavalry is fifteen miles away until the foot of the Great Wall, such a big battle must be some heavyweight big man to come here, and the cavalry of Tieling, where is the nest of Li Chengliang's family, the garrison there is the last essence of the Liaodong Iron Cavalry, Zhang Chengyin's headquarters in Liaodong can not be moved, and now there is only one person in Liaodong who can mobilize this army.

Only fifteen miles!? Yang Hao, you can't run!

Ergutai's hairs all over his body stood up with excitement, and he really let himself bump into such a great achievement. And fortunately, Huang Taiji and Dai Shan don't have the ability to stumble on themselves secretly. The old man has already hinted so clearly, and if they make any more changes, they will undoubtedly kill themselves! You can do whatever you want. And the blocking of the Ming army is not within his consideration at all, and the current Ming army has become corrupt and degenerate.

Fifteen miles, with the speed of the cavalry, it was simply a blink of an eye. Even if the Ming army is now warned, it is too late to react. And he did not walk the road through the mountains and mountains along the way, along the way he encountered the village and destroyed the village and saw people kill people, the sentry rode far away for 20 miles, and there was no living mouth left at all, and many spies made up by the Ming army were eliminated, judging by the efficiency of the Ming army in the past, it was impossible for the wind to leak so quickly.

Everything is good for you. According to the spies' report, the Ming army there does not seem to have discovered that doom is coming, otherwise it would have been chaotic a long time ago. With the miracle at his fingertips, Ergutai seemed to see that the position above ten thousand people under one person, or even higher, was beckoning to him.

"Come on! Ordered all the bulls to record the real head of the people, and attack immediately! Make no mistake! beheaded Yang Hao's dog, all of them will be rewarded! Whoever dares to retreat from the battle, military law is engaged! With that, they rushed up the hill and crossed directly through the gap in the collapsed gable, and the crowd behind them boiled, rushing through the gaps like a flood that had burst the embankment, and rolling away in the distance after their banner master......

South of Qinghe, Liaoyang East Road, Sanyang Fort City.

Sanyang Fort is the most important castle of Liaoyang East Road Fort except Qinghe. In the fifth year of Chenghua, it was built by Han Bin, the deputy general of Liaodong at that time, and there is still a stone tablet erected by Han Bin under the new water platform under the Great Wall to which it belongs. There is Zhenshuo Pass in the east of Sanyang Fort, and later when the wicker side is repaired, it was changed to the side gate of Sanyang Fort, and now it has been closed because Mingjin is in a state of war.

After the completion of the Great Wall of Liaodong, the government of Liaodong established a horse market for mutual trade with the Jurchens abroad in Fushun, Qinghe, Sanyang, Kuandian, etc., so these four forts are also called the four passes of the Great Wall. After the Jianzhou Jurchens swept the Jurchen tribes outside the Guan, they were all in Hetuala, because Qinghe and Fushun were the closest to Hetuala, so they were most valued by all parties. However, this does not mean that the status of Sanyang Fort has declined.

This place is the intersection of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty and the edge of the Qing wicker. In terms of direction, the Qing Wicker Side goes west to Phoenix, while Mingcheng goes southeast to the Yalu River. And more importantly, the Ming army Liaoyang East Road staff general station, the current Liaoyang East Road Zhubao garrison, in addition to Qinghe more than 10,000 people, belongs to the Yang soldiers are more generals, more than 5,000 people stationed here.

The city of Sanyang Fort is divided into two cities, the east city is square, the east and west city walls are nearly 800 meters long, the length of the south and north walls is also more than 300 meters each, there are two city gates in the west and south. Because it is a place of adjudication, the city wall is particularly strong, covered with bricks and stones, the inside is a stone, and the outside is covered with bricks. The city wall is nearly three zhang high, and the base is also two zhang wide, and the four corners of the city have square city platforms, protruding from the wall, and artillery guns are laid on it. There is a door plaque on the south gate, and there are three big characters on it: "Rangyang City".

The eastern part of the city is the main area for the activities of residents and foreign traders. After passing the east gate along the street, you will arrive at the west city.

The west city of Sanyang Fort is connected to the east city. There are only three walls in the west, south, north, and west, and the east wall of the west city is borrowed from the west wall of the east city. The west wall of the west city is nearly 300 meters long, and the north and south walls are each more than 100 meters long. There are also two gates of west and south, and the east gate is the west gate of the east city of Sanyang. In fact, the east and west are two connected castles. The West City is full of barracks and horse corridors, and most of the 5,000 soldiers and horses belonging to Sanyang are stationed here. In terms of combat effectiveness, it is not even inferior to the Qinghe soldiers, who are twice as numerous as them. Because they have a very capable commander: He Shixian, a fierce general of the Ming army who was in charge of Liaoyang's affairs and was known as the mad tiger, was transferred to Sanyang by Yizhou Counselor General.

Speaking of He Shixian, there is no one among the generals of the Ming army in Liaodong who does not know, because this is one of the few fierce generals who can really fight in battle. This Shaanxi man is a native of Yulin, when he was a child, he worked as a housekeeper for a large family, and he was righteous and brave, and his natural arm strength was outstanding; Later, he joined the army, moved to the northern border, fought the Qiang, Mongolian, and Jurchen, accumulated merit to Shenyang guerrillas, and moved to Yizhou as a general.

After the defeat of Fushun, the military department transferred him to Sanyang to defend the town, and was in charge of the affairs of the deputy general army of Liaoyang. This can be regarded as a disguised ascension, so after the transfer to He Shixian was quite excited for a while, soldiers can only show their value when the war is coming, and to a border general like him who has no background and is purely from a small soldier, meritorious service on the battlefield is almost the only way to climb up.

And looking at the Jurchen turmoil this time, the imperial court will never give up, and it is likely to fight in the end, otherwise where will the face of the dignified Heavenly Dynasty go? The Jianzhou Jurchen has indeed become a climate in recent years, but after all, it is a small barbarian country that dominates the ravines and ravines, can't a big country like the dignified Ming Dynasty, with hundreds of millions of people and millions of troops, clean him up?

He was named and transferred by the Ministry of War, and it is likely to be of great use, maybe the feudal marquis will count on this battle. Therefore, after He Shixian took office, he actively trained soldiers and horses, diligently repaired war preparations, purchased munitions and equipment, and sent sentry spies to infiltrate the territory of the Jurchens to inquire about the military situation, which made a lot of noise. As a result, after being busy for a while, he found that the imperial court had no movement, and the news obtained through the official Wendi newspaper was even more disappointing to him, the reinforcements in the customs were far away, the yamen at all levels dragged and dragged each other, and the military salaries, armor, horses, and weapons could not be purchased until now, and the important ministers of the imperial court were still busy with party disputes, and no one seemed to want to seriously fight with the Jianzhou soldiers.

He Shixian didn't understand, what did these adults think? The dignified Celestial Empire was openly shaved by the former minions, and even an ordinary person couldn't help but suppress it, and these people were still thinking about appeasement. Could it be that they have the wrong tendons in their heads? Don't they know what to talk about benevolence and morality with these barbarians, just playing the harp to the ox?

Today he robbed you, but you soothed you. He is bold, how can there be a reason not to rob in the future? To deal with this kind of barbarian, there is only one word: fight! Hit hard! Completely beat them up and scared. Let them immediately remember the lessons of the past when they use their brains in the future, and only then will they be honest and obedient.

For example, today's Ye He, if it weren't for Li Chengliang's complete slaughter of thousands of elites in his subordinates during the victory at Zhenbei Pass, the First World War completely knocked out the sharpness of the Ye He people, completely defeated the courage to dare to resist the Ming Dynasty, and completely subdued and scared them, where would he be so obedient now?

There is also the so-called military salary, grain and grass, and the dignified Celestial Empire can't even take out a million taels of silver, isn't this ridiculous?

There are so many people in the whole country, and each person pays a penny of silver, and there are millions of taels. Legend has it that the Forbidden City in Beijing is paved with gold bricks, and the jade agate is built with palaces and pavilions. There are also businessmen who came to Liaodong to do business in the past, saying that there are many big salt merchants and sea merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, and they are all family wealth of hundreds of millions, so why is it difficult for them to donate some to serve the country?

Outside the gate is a wild place, but the Central Plains is a prosperous world of flowers, since it is known as the Celestial Empire, how can it not get silver? It's simply incomprehensible! I really don't know what those Shangshu waiters in the household are doing to eat!

But he is just a small general, and there is nothing he can do about it. I have to take one step at a time, since I have reached the front line, no matter what others do, I must always do my own thing. Moreover, the newly appointed manager Yang Ho is still relatively active, and as soon as he leaves the customs, he will inspect everywhere and constantly urge people to the mainland, which is the only thing that makes him happy. If he still has hope for this war now, then this hope falls on Yang Hao.

And now, the secret order and Fu Xinling arrow from Liaodong Jingluo Xingyuan have arrived in the Yamen of Sanyang Beiyu, and the letter is written in the secret language used in the army, and the text after decryption is in the hands of He Shixian at this time.

Now no one in Liaodong knows the exact location of the Jingluo Xingyuan, Yang Hao is erratic, and wherever he goes, he is the Jingluo Xingyuan. And the person who sent the letter claimed to be an envoy of the Chronicles.

After reading the contents of the secret order, check the stamped customs seal letter and confirm that it is correct. He Shixian's heart was a little excited, if the content of the secret order was really like this, then he really didn't see the wrong person.

"Where is the envoy now?"

"Back to my lord, in the main hall of the yamen. Let's check, except for a saber, there is no weapon, what is said is the accent of the Beijing Division, and the matching knife is the embroidered spring knife dedicated to the Jinyi Guard, and there seems to be nothing suspicious in the identity. ”

"In that case, I want to see him." ……

At the same time, Ma Chengen, the commander-in-chief of Liao, Yu Kaiyuan, Wang Xuan, who had been promoted to the commander of the capital, from Liaoyang, Ma Yan from Kaiyuan, Zheng Guoliang from Tieling, and Yang Yuwei from Shenyang, all arrived at the envoys who came to Jingluo. The local Liao army in the entire eastern part of Liaodong and the reinforcements out of the customs were counted as one, and almost all the troops that could fight received secret orders for secret transfers.

Since the fall of Fushun and the plundering of Hebei, the Ming army, which had been unable to shrink, finally began the first large-scale mobilization that affected the whole territory......
