The sound of military trumpets echoed over the Dalinghe Fort, and the defenders stationed in the city moved when they heard the wind.

"Kegang, you quickly lead people to collect the soldiers outside the city into the city and close the four gates." Zu Dashou, who was in the big tent of the Chinese army, heard the news early in the morning, and he immediately ordered He Kegang to close the city gate and prepare for the battle.

"Yes, Marshal." He Kegang got the order and walked out of the big tent of the Chinese army.

"Da Bi, quickly order all the soldiers of our Liao army to go to the south and east city walls, and prepare the medicine bow and arrow, and the boulder rolling wood are ready to meet the enemy." Zu Dashou ordered.

"Yes, Marshal." Zu Dabi took the order and left.

"Kefa, you go and inform the general of the Liu family and ask him to quickly lead people to the west and north city walls." Zu Dashou ordered to Zu Kefa.

"Yes, Marshal." Zukoffa took the order and left.

"Let's go, go to the head of the city with this town, and see the enemy." After Zu Dashou said this, he strode out of the barracks and went straight to the city.

Zu Dashou ascended to the city, and Liu Renyu, who got the news, also took his own men down.

"I've seen the big handsome." The generals of Jingbian Fort saluted to Zu Dashou.

"That's it, everyone, Jiannu is here, you see ......." Zu Dashou's face was grim, and he turned his head to look at the grasslands and hills in the distance.

Liu Renyu and other Jingbian Fort generals looked around, their pupils suddenly shrank, their hearts panicked, and a chill rose from the soles of their feet and went straight to their heads.

I saw that the verdant and verdant field was suddenly filled with countless Houjin cavalry, looking over from this side of the Daling River, the enemy was densely packed, as if filling all the space between heaven and earth.

They were silent, marching like a wall, in unison, tens of thousands of horses' hooves trampling on the ground, and there were bursts of 'rumbling' sounds, like giant drums, striking the heartstrings of the defenders of the Daling River one after another.

"Woo......., woo........." Horns sounded.

After the golden cavalry received the military order, they stopped their horses and stood silently.

These Jurchen battle-hardened armies naturally exuded murderous aura from the inside out, like substance, crossed the boundaries of space, and pressed heavily on the Ming army of Dalinghe Fort, cutting their faces and making them almost breathless.

At the head of the city, there were extremely strong martial artists like Yang Desheng, who were already sweating heavily at this time, and they were a little frightened.

"General, it's not unheard of tens of thousands of enemy soldiers being humble, but they don't feel the same for them." Yang Desheng said in a solemn voice.

Not only Yang Desheng, but also Li Jiye, Zhang Tieniu, Ma Wenshan and other generals also had a slight fear on their faces.

Even Sun Wuxi, who has always been lively and active, known as the number one pistachio in the Jingbianbao Army, is pale and can't even tell a joke.

At this time, as the chief general of Jingbian Fort, Liu Renyu was quite frightened himself, but he was brave enough to be brave for the army, and at this time he had to show calmness and tactically despise the enemy to stabilize the army's morale.

As soon as he thought of this, Liu Renyu smiled slightly, looked left and right, and said, "Jiannu sent the head to give us meritorious service!" ”

"Haha."

The generals of Jingbian Fort, who had always been a little nervous, laughed when they heard this, and their nervousness faded a lot.

When Liu Renyu was talking to his subordinates, he also took the time to look at Zu Dashou and them, and he found that although these Liao army generals also had solemn faces, they did not have much fear.

"Damn, our army has never seen a big battle, and when I saw so many Jiannu, I seem to be a little flustered, on the other hand, the Liao army, one by one, is calm and relaxed, it seems that this trip to Liaodong is the right one, to practice courage, it's good."

When Liu Renyu was secretly thinking about things in his heart, he turned his head without believing Zu Dashou, and said with a slight smile: "General Liu, you haven't seen much of the Jiannu Brigade in the Guannei, even if you are a little frightened, it is normal, don't worry." ”

After Zu Dashou finished speaking, he turned his head and continued to observe the enemy's situation.

"Damn, it seems that our performance is too unbearable, and we have all been seen through by the old man, alas, we are going to be looked down upon by the Liao army." Liu Renyu sighed secretly in his heart, and then his dark face was solemn, and he continued to observe the enemy situation with an expressionless face.

"General Liu, if Jiannu is attacking the city later, you will guard the west and north walls of the city, and the town will bring its own soldiers and horses to guard the south and east city walls, and each will defend one side, and support each other when it is tight." Zu Dashou said.

"Yes, Marshal." Liu Renyu responded.

Zu Dashou gave an order, and the gunners, musketeers, archers, spearmen, and sword and shield soldiers were all in place.

At this time, Liu Renyu didn't dare to say that Huang Taiji would definitely not attack the city, after all, Huang Taiji did not attack the city, but only besieged the city and sent reinforcements, which was recorded in the history books, and I don't know if it will change.

*******

It is said that when the Ming army at the head of Dalinghe City was busy guarding the city, on the southern hill of Dalinghe City, under the cover of a huge yellow dragon-patterned umbrella, Huang Taiji was looking north at Dalinghe City with his subordinates, discussing the military situation.

"My father Khan died, and I led troops to attack Ming at the beginning of the imperial period, and demolished this city at that time, but I didn't think that now this city has been repaired again. I heard that this city was built very quickly, and it was repaired without using bricks and stones, only with iron cages and thin mud, which is really a bit peculiar, and I don't know how the craftsmen of the Southern Dynasty did it. Huang Taiji looked at Da Linghe City from a distance and sighed.

"The Southern Dynasty has a lot of tricky skills, but it is very useful, it is not that it is cowering in the city, and it does not dare to fight against my Dajin Heavenly Soldiers." Mang Gurtai said nonchalantly.

Huang Taiji looked at Mang Gurtai and didn't want to say a word.

"Your Majesty the Khan, our army has arrived here, whether to attack the city after encampment, or let the army rest for a while and attack again tomorrow, please make it clear to His Majesty the Khan." Big Belle Deshan asked.

"Don't attack the city," Huang Taiji first waved his hand, and then looked around and said: "Siege is not the strength of my soldiers, my soldiers attack the Daling River, afraid of losing the soldiers, it is better to dig a trench, build a high wall to lock the city, if the defenders in the city go out to fight, our army will attack and fight with it, if there are reinforcements in Ningyuan and Jinzhou, our army will fight with the reinforcements, in short, we must give full play to the invincible advantage of our Dajin Heavenly Soldiers." What do you think? ”

"His Majesty the Khan has a great plan, and the ministers will obey him, and ask His Majesty the Khan to survey the strategy."

What Huang Taiji said was reasonable, and the Minister of Houjin did not object.

"Zhenghuang Banner Gushan Ezhen Leng Geri led the soldiers and horses of this banner to besiege the west of the north of the city, inlaid with the yellow flag Gushan Ezhen, Eju Darhan to encircle the east of the north, and Bel Abatai led the escort army to respond.

Zhenglan Banner Gushan Zhenjue Roselle is surrounded by the south, and Belle Mang Gurtai and Derge are in the back. The blue flag is inlaid in the west of the south of the ancient enclosure of the Zhenbian Ancient Fence, and Belezir Harang responds to it. Mongolia Gushan Ezhen Wunag encircles the east of the south of Er.

Zhengbai Banner Gushan Ezhen Kak Duli encircled the north of the east, and Belle Duoduo responded in the back. The white flag is fixed on the mountain, and the north of the east of the siege of Ilden, and Belle Dolgon responds to the rear.

Zhenghongqi Gushan Ezhen, Efu and Shuotu encircle the northwest of the north, and the big Belle Dai is good at living in the back of the strategy. Mongolia Gushan Ezhen Ebendui is just south, inlaid with red flag Gushan Ezhen Yechen encircled to the south of the west, and Beile Yue dragged back to respond.

The Mongolian tribes of Belle led their own troops and horses to surround the gaps between the above flags. Can you hear clearly? Huang Taiji asked.

"Minister's order." The ministers responded in unison.

"In accordance with my arrangement, the various departments set up camps on all the main roads of communication, and then dug deep trenches and spread earthen walls to block all communication between the Daling River and the outside world." Huang Taiji replied and ordered.

"Minister's order." The ministers responded in unison.

"Let's set up camp first, so we can rest for a while, and then we will make plans tomorrow." Huang Taiji ordered.

"Pierce." The ministers should go up to the above, so they each according to the arrangement of the emperor Taiji, each led his subordinates, controlled the traffic arteries in all directions, set up camps, and made fires to make food.

"Dashuai, it seems that Jiannu will not attack the city today." He Kegang looked at the Houjin army in the distance, who was busy running around and camping in the village.

"Leave the sentry to observe, and the rest of the people will go down to rest first, recuperate, and prepare for battle. You go over and talk to General Liu. Zu Dashou said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Marshal." He Kegang responded.

"Dashuai,"

Zu Dashou and He Kegang were talking, not beware of Zu Kefa's loud call.

"What?" Zu Dashou turned around and asked.

"Look at ....." Zu Kefa looked in the direction where the Jingbian Fort Army was located and said with envy.

What's wrong!?

Zu Dashou looked at the direction where the Jingbian Fort Army was located with some confusion.

"The Jingbian Fort Army is really rich, even the little commander has a clairvoyant mirror in his hand, and if you look at us, you and the deputy marshal will have it." Zukefa was a little hot-eyed.

"You can get 200,000 stone of grain, can't you get a few clairvoyant mirrors!" Zu Dashou smiled and didn't care.

"This town wants to see, is it true that Liu Renyu said that Jiannu will never attack the city?"

Zu Dashou looked around and said with a smile.

"We'll see tomorrow." Zu Dabi said in a deep voice.

For the rest of the day, the Ming army in Dalinghe Fort saw that the Houjin soldiers had no intention of attacking the city, so they only left a few sentry posts and stared at the movements of the Houjin soldiers on all sides, while the rest of the soldiers seized the time to rest and prepare for the upcoming battle.
