The new military secretary of the Qing Dynasty, the right capital of the Supervision Yuan, the great commander of the expedition to the south, wearing a yellow coat and holding the sword of the Son of Heaven, the great traitor Hong Chengchou, took the civil and military ministers to the head of the city to watch the enemy's situation.

In an instant, he understood. It turned out that all this was a trap set by Lin Yi for him, in order to trap him, Lin Yi took great pains, and the Ming army experienced the defeat of Da Ling River and the defeat of Xiao Ling River, and withdrew more than 200 miles in one go.

It wasn't until Hong Chengchou moved to the city that the Ming army came back from a raid of more than 200 miles overnight, and besieged Jinzhou City again.

This line was really long enough, until Hong Chengchou, the big fish, firmly bit the hook and ate the bait.

The pit that Lin Yi dug for him was really deep enough and hidden enough, and it wasn't until he jumped in that Hong Chengchou didn't know the true intentions of the Ming army.

Trapped in the city? Hong Chengchou looked at it with a sense of déjà vu, how similar was the situation in front of him to the Battle of Ningjin two years ago?

The battle of Ningjin that year can be said to be the shame of his Hong Chengchou and Zu Dashou. Defeated and captured, he planned to repay the country with death, but after all, he couldn't resist coercion and temptation, it was better to live than to die, not to mention that he really couldn't resist the hot tenderness of the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, and then he surrendered to the Tartars.

However, what made him feel ironic was that his old lord Emperor Chongzhen did not believe that he could surrender to the Tartars as a traitor, in the eyes of Emperor Chongzhen, anyone could betray the Ming Dynasty, but only he Hong Aiqing could not.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen thought that he was defeated and captured, and must have died heroically, in order to express his deep condolences to this loyal martyr, Emperor Chongzhen held a grand ceremony and personally participated in the memorial ceremony of Hong Chengchou.

However, when Emperor Chongzhen generously expressed his deep condolences at the memorial service, his Hongqing family was receiving the flirtation of the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang in the palace of the Great Qing Dynasty!

This matter was later spread to Daqing by Daming, not just a joke, Hong Chengchou's old face secretly felt a little feverish, and when no one was around, he cried at Daming's Jingshi who went north to Beijing.

Now things are wrong, the old land is revisited, Hong Chengchou really has a special taste in his heart, he stood on the head of the city and looked at the overwhelming Ming army, the past is unbearable, his heart is like knocking over the five-flavor bottle.

The civil and military ministers beside him, including the prince of the Qing Dynasty, Beile Beizi, looked at Hong Chengchou in a daze, thinking that he was thinking of a strategy to break the enemy, of course, no one knew the ups and downs in his heart.

In the end, Hong Chengchou was relieved, anyway, Emperor Chongzhen was dead. His thoughts returned to his eyes, a look of contempt on his lips.

If you want to trap me Hong Chengchou, you with the surname Lin are also worthy!

Hong Chengchou immediately ordered to attack from all sides, there were 70,000 Qing troops in the city, all of them were elite divisions, and the generals around him who could conquer and fight were like a few family treasures, Prince Su Haoge, Prince Ying Azige, the first warrior of Manchuria, Aobai, Hanchen Ma Guozhu, which is not the pillar of the Qing Dynasty?

The 100,000 Ming troops are still tired divisions, they have not yet gained a stable foothold, and they are not encamped, so what are they afraid of!

At this time, attacking from all sides with troops will definitely be able to defeat the Ming army.

Thinking like this, Hong Chengchou was full of ambition again, so he asked Prince Ying Haoge to take 10,000 elite divisions out of the east gate to kill; Let Prince Ying Azig lead 10,000 elites to open the West Gate and kill them; Let the protectors lead Aobai, and lead 10,000 soldiers to open the north gate and kill outside; Let Han General Ma Guozhu lead 10,000 troops to open the south gate and kill outside.

The remaining 30,000 people, Ma Hong Chengchou, personally commanded the city, while guarding the city, while quietly watching the movements of the soldiers and horses of the four routes, so as to provide timely support.

Hong Chengchou's attack from all sides can be regarded as a breakthrough, and it is also a decisive battle with the Ming army, and he plans to tear the big net woven by the Ming army to pieces.

The four-way army rushed out from four directions, like four evil dragons, turning the world upside down and rushing towards the Ming army outside the city......

At this time, Lin Yi had also moved from outside Ningyuan City to the Ming army camp outside Jinzhou City.

Lin Yi left 20,000 horses outside Ningyuan City, and watched the 10,000 Qing troops in Ningyuan City.

Don't look at Ganglin, the 10,000 Qing army, is also an elite division, but it has been trapped for more than half a month, there is no grain and grass in the city, and the grain road outside the city has long been cut off for them, and now the 10,000 Qing army in Ningyuan City is the dish of the Ming army sooner or later.

Ning Yuan's Qing army is not worried at all now, leaving 20,000 Ming troops to deal with them.

handed over the battle of Ningyuan to Song Xiance to command, and then he moved to Jinzhou with the guard battalion and the women's battalion.

Lin Yi is now focusing on Jinzhou, this is a big battle, of course, it is the Qing Dynasty's reinforcement Hong Chengchou, in order to get rid of this big traitor, after learning that he only brought 50,000 Qing troops to help, Lin Yi still adopted the strategy of besieging the city, first withdraw the encirclement of Jinzhou, let Hong Chengchou enter the city, and then besiege the city.

In order to achieve this goal, Lin Yi also invested a lot of money, because he knew that Hong Chengchou was not easy to deal with, for many years, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong These fierce men made him lose his temper, and if he wanted this big traitor to jump into the pit, he would definitely not be able to give up some capital.

Therefore, there was the defeat of the Ming army in front of the Da Ling River, the defeat of the Xiao Ling River, and the defeat of the Ming army besieging Jinzhou, which was defeated for more than 200 miles, so that Hong Chengchou and others tasted the sweetness, and when Hong Chengchou relaxed his vigilance and moved to the city, Lin Yi ordered 100,000 Ming troops to march quickly and make a comeback at a speed of 200 miles in one night, which trapped Hong Chengchou in Jinzhou City.

Now the 100,000 Ming troops besieging the city, including the 60,000 shore troops and more than 10,000 sailors who attacked Tashan, Xingshan and Songshan, plus the 20,000 Ming troops who were originally stationed in Jinzhou, plus Lin Yi's guard battalion and women's battalion, there are now more than 106,000 Ming troops outside Jinzhou City.

After a night of rapid marching, the 100,000 Ming army can be described as sleepy and lacking. However, the cavalry had the advantage, he was fast, he was one step ahead, and after a few hours of rest, the exhaustion was no longer so obvious. It is mainly seventy or eighty thousand foot soldiers, and at this time it can be called a tired division.

But Lin Yi did not let them camp and rest, but said to the soldiers of each battalion: "If the Tartars attack at this time, can you still fight?" ”

Liu Zhaoji, Hao Shaoqi, He Renlong, Gan Bao, Jiang Xingyuan, Dongsheng, Wang Qi and others thought that Lin Yi would immediately attack the city, and immediately had the spirit, all stood up with their chests, and responded loudly: "Back to my lord, I can fight!" ”

The main general took the lead, and the soldiers below immediately had the spirit, and they all shouted with the main general at the top of their throats: "You can fight, swear to kill the Tartars, and never give up!" ”

Lin Yi saw that his morale was okay and nodded: "This is my Ming army." ”

Then Lin Yi ordered each battalion to set aside one-third of the troops to be on guard, one-third of the troops to camp and build fortifications, and one-third of the men and horses to rest, eat, drink, and sleep, and the war horses to wash and drink, so as to quickly recover their combat strength.

To build fortifications, Lin Yi clearly instructed to build them according to the fortifications from the high monument, that is, to pick three trenches on the periphery of Jinzhou City.

"Brother Lin, why?" Xiaoying felt that Lin Yi's arrangement was inappropriate, the soldiers had been running all night, and they were sleepy and tired, so they should be allowed to rest immediately to quickly recover their combat strength, and it was necessary to leave troops on guard, but camping and repairing fortifications could be postponed, if she was asked to send troops, she would definitely leave half of the men and horses to rest, and the other half of the men and horses would be responsible for guarding.

"Because Hong Chengchou is not a fuel-efficient lamp, this person has the talent of Wang Zuozhi, and while our army is tired, he may go out of the city to attack us, so we must guard against it."

"This Xiao Ying knows, but what Xiao Ying doesn't understand is, why is she in such a hurry to set up camp and build such fortifications?"

Lin Yi smiled, "I've already calculated, thirty percent of the men and horses are enough to deal with the 70,000 Qing troops in the city, as long as they dare to come out to make trouble, they will be guaranteed to be beaten back, and set up camp so that the soldiers can have a home for better rest, and it is also necessary to build fortifications, which is the plan and guarantee of a long-term siege of the city, which is called three correct, once and for all." ”

"However, the soldiers are so tired, and they are fighting and camping and digging ditches, can it be done?"

"Hmph, don't worry, my Ming army can't be so squeamish, it must be able to fight continuously, and those who don't adapt can only be eliminated."

As soon as Lin Yi said this, the four gates of Jinzhou City were opened, and the Qing army of the four roads rushed out, they crossed the moat, and killed the Ming army overwhelmingly.

"Damn, I really let Lao Tzu guess it, it's a good time, beat them back!"

Lin Yi gave an order, and the officers and men of each battalion felt that they were fortunate that the adults were prepared, so they acted immediately, mobilized one-third of the vigilant soldiers and horses, and prepared for the battle.

According to the division of labor, only more than 30,000 people in the 100,000 Ming army formed a battle formation, and the remaining 60,000 people continued to camp in the village, dig ditches and repair fortifications, and the rest continued, but at this time, although he was very tired, he had no heart to rest, and the people who were busy digging ditches in the camp were also distracted, they were concerned about this big battle, because it was about their fate, don't look at Lord Lin so strategic, in case the more than 30,000 people and horses can't resist the Tartars, they must all have to go into battle, since they want to besiege the city, they must not let Hong Chengchou run away from here.

The combat troops, including 40,000 Qing troops and more than 30,000 Ming troops, fought to the death on the outskirts of Jinzhou City, and both sides first used muskets and bows and arrows.

Of course, the Ming troops of each battalion put the musketeers in the front, and in the face of the surging Qing army, as soon as they saw the range of fire, the well-trained Ming soldiers immediately raised their guns and fired.

For a time, the guns sounded like bursting beans, and the light firearms of the Ming army were self-generated flintlock pistols, which were now equipped with nearly 10,000 guns, which were more than 200 years more advanced than the Qing army. On the other hand, if you sharpen your tools, you will be able to do a good job.

The musketeers of the Ming army formed a continuous firepower, and the Qing troops who rushed in front were shot and fell off their horses, and outside the range of bows and arrows, that is, the two sides advanced about 200 meters apart, and the Qing troops who charged over were in chaos, and the men and horses were killed and wounded everywhere......
