The Red Gangsters suffered for more than ten days in a row, and it was only after the Mid-Autumn Festival that they finally heard that 40,000 or 50,000 Ming troops had left Ningyuan and came in the direction of Dalinghe City.

At this time, he also received a report that the "Red Banner Army" and the people of Dongjiang Town had besieged Jinzhou to the ground.

The Nu chief did not inform the generals of the military situation in Jinzhou, but only told everyone that the Ming army sent 40,000 or 50,000 reinforcements to the Daling River, and now it is close to Jinzhou.

The generals of the Houjin army were excited to get the news, and they waited for the Ming army to throw themselves into the net.

Who knew that the efficiency of the Ming army was too low, and the Jiannu scouts stopped and set up camp after seeing them drive ten miles, and the Ming army was not afraid of trouble, but also learned from the Dajin army to dig trenches, erect earthen walls, and insert wooden stakes, and was ready to defend it strictly.

The slave chieftain, who was originally unwavered, found that the Ming army walking on the road approaching the encirclement was so cautious, and his forehead began to sweat, it seemed that he needed a good pair of teeth to eat such a Ming army.

How could the Ming army that came to aid Liao advance quickly? Moreover, this time was not the same as before, and the military department and the emperor did not urge them at all.

Originally, the Ming army's will to fight was to be discussed, and the rush to Jinzhou from Ningyuan meant approaching the battlefield of the Daling River, and everyone was cautious, and suddenly received a holy decree sent urgently by 600 li on the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The main general prepared Zhang Chun, the deputy general of Guanning, Sun Dingliao, the general Jiang Xinhe, and the general Wu Xiang, Song Wei, and other dozens of generals who rushed to join the army.

Who knew that this time was an exception, the Son of Heaven was magnanimous, and strictly ordered the rescue men and horses not to advance lightly, but to fight steadily and steadily, and instructed the people and horses to help Liao to prevent Jiannu from encircling the point to send reinforcements.

After receiving the holy decree, all the generals celebrated each other, and they were very good at fighting steadily, so that the time of marching every day for forty or fifty thousand horses was not as long as the time for setting up camp and going down.

They simply moved forward step by step in the direction of Dalinghe City, and found that the mountains were high and the forests were densely forested, so they simply camped for three days and carefully explored before moving their nests, and estimated that they would not be able to reach the outside of Dalinghe City in a month.

The Ming army made such a slow motion that simply drove the Houjin army, who was eager for a quick victory, and Jiannu endured the pain of being Huang Han** in Daling River, and now the red gang is like being roasted on the fire, and if it continues like this, the slave chief is afraid that it will be scorched on the outside and tender on the inside.

As everyone knows, the Ming army is dragging on this order, the purpose is to make the Houjin army difficult to take care of, the main force of the Ming army in western Liaoning made it clear that it was a large army to press the border, and Zhang Chun, who was also well versed in the art of war, knew that it was impossible for Jiannu to withdraw his troops to southern Liaoning at this time.

In fact, he was full of hope in his heart that the main force of Jiannu would leave Dalinghe, if so, he would lead the army to attack Jiannu until he killed Dalinghe City, and he would make a miraculous achievement.

But reason told Zhang Chunjian that it was impossible for him to be tired, and he should wait for a decisive battle with the army led by him near Dalinghe City, and he was not in a hurry, thinking that if the time dragged on for a long time, at least it would give the men and horses who attacked Nansiwei precious time.

Zhang Chun spent more than a year training an infantry unit, which relied on the chariot battalion to fight, and the carts carried by the chariot battalion were covered with cowhide and wooden planks, and even iron sheets on key parts.

Such a large cart came sideways when it was lined up, and there was a shooting hole in the car, which could meet the needs of three Ming army bird gunners to play in it.

The shortcomings of the large vehicles of Zhang Chunche Battalion are obvious, they are too large, difficult to transport, and easy to destroy, but compared with wheelbarrows, the protection of this kind of combat vehicle is much greater, and it is simply the original version of armored combat vehicles.

The Ming army had a chariot formation to slow down the impact of the Jiannu cavalry, which did make the soldiers psychologically stable, as long as the formation was not chaotic, it was really not easy to swallow, so Zhang Chun thought that he had the strength to fight, and he was psychologically prepared to fight against the main force of Jiannu.

On August 12, the fourth year of Chongzhen, Fang Zhenghua and Li Ruolian took 3,000 battalions and less than 500 Jinyiwei men and horses from Tianjin Weishui Camp to Lushunkou.

The 3,000 battalion, that is, the Shenshu battalion, is quite a bullish Beijing battalion, and the officials are all well-known, and the Jinyi Guard is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven.

Seeing that these ancestral Tianjin Wei commanders dared to slack off, they not only sent the best warships and transport ships, but also personally led most of the officials above the rank of thousands of households under his command to accompany them all the way.

Huang Long kept the contract and tried his best to run Lushunkou, and he and Jin Sheng, Shen Shikui, Shang Keyi, etc., as early as mid-July, brought more than half of the people of Pidao to come here to set up defenses, and the reinforcement of the city and the reserve of grain have been in full swing.

At this time, seeing the angel and seeing the unprecedented lineup, Huang Long, Jin Sheng, and so on all felt that something was wrong.

The Son of Heaven attaches great importance to the counterattack on the South Four Guards, and sent Fang Zhenghua, the great eunuch of the Imperial Horse Guard, and Li Ruolian, the secretary of the Jinyi Guard, who brought 3,000 battalions and more than 400 elite cavalry of the Jinyi Guard, what does this mean? Are they really here to fight?

I'm afraid that may not be the case, they may be the main purpose of supervising the war, and having a small 500 cavalry to suppress the formation can indeed make the ruffians who are thinking about turning around and fleeing to lose their minds.

Jin Sheng was full of enthusiasm, seeing that the Son of Heaven attached so much importance to this counterattack on the South Fourth Guard, he was inexplicably excited, of course he didn't mind having Jinyi Wei and the cavalry of the Shenshu Battalion to supervise the battle.

Huang Long has nothing to say, after all, he is waiting for the crime to stay in office, and it is great to have the opportunity to lead the troops to make meritorious contributions, where would he care if the Son of Heaven does not trust the people of Dongjiang Town at all.

Fang Zhenghua and Li Ruolian convened the officials of the hundred households stationed here and above to discuss the matter at the former Lushun deputy general's line.

On the day they landed at the mouth of Arthur with their men and horses, they issued an order that martial law was allowed to allow entry and exit, and that every ship that needed to leave must be released and inspected before they could leave the port.

When they came, Fang Zhenghua stayed in Tianjin Wei for a day to make sea preparations, and the Tianjin Wei commander and some civil and military generals sent a lot of filial piety.

Fang Zhenghua and Li Ruolian had the desperate intention of going to the battlefield, where would they care about yellow and white things, they all replaced them with rice noodles, vegetable oil, wine, bacon, ham and other foods to bring Lushun.

Convening hundreds of households and above-level officials to discuss the matter is also to invite everyone to drink wine and eat meat, Li Ruolian and Fang Zhenghua knew that they would have to use the people of Dongjiang Town to fight with Jiannu immediately, of course, they didn't take a shelf at this time, and they were busy with the generals to push the cup and change the glass.

How many years, Dongjiang Town seems to have been forgotten by the Son of Heaven, today not only angels came, but also many Jinyi guards, and these people are completely different from the memory, not only good words but also invite everyone to drink, many Dongjiang Town lower-level officials Zuo was really moved to tears.

They miss Mao Wenlong, lamenting the unfair treatment over the years, they also want to be upright, and they also want to kill the enemy for the country.
