Chapter 390: Datong Breaks
"You're here. "www.biquge.info Han Wantao gave Xu Lang a hug first, "What is the situation in Beijing, how many troops have been dispatched, do you know where the Manchus will break through?" ”
"Wan Tao, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you." Xu Lang briefly recounted the news of Beijing and the Eight Banners.
"I'll fuck him." Han Wantao angrily slammed the kettle on the table on the ground, "Let our 10,000 people fight against the 120,000 Eight Banners, Lao Tzu won't do it." ”
"Wan Tao." Xu Lang persuaded, "I have said these angry words to Beiming, but it is useless. Let's hold a meeting of officers first and brief you on the situation. ”
All the regimental-level officers gathered in the conference room of the regimental headquarters in Yulinbao, and Xu Lang had just finished introducing the situation in the conference room, and even Ye Zhan and Andreas couldn't help but curse a few words.
"It's all nonsense." Han Wantao glanced around majestically, and the conference room fell silent, "This is the situation, it's useless to say anything else." We have already come to Yulin Castle, and we must fight this battle well. ”
"You don't have to worry too much, I've discussed it with Beiming and Wan Tao." Xu Lang tried his best to ease the mood at the venue, "At present, we don't know where Azig broke through, and he may not necessarily come to Yulinbao." But we must be prepared with two hands, one is to get the fortifications in place as soon as possible, and the other is to prepare for retreat. ”
"Retreat?" Everyone in the venue looked at me and I saw you didn't know why, Lin Zhaolong was the first to ask, "Why retreat, where to retreat?" ”
"This matter must not be spread outside, just at the regimental level." Han Wantao explained, "We can't fight to the death with 10,000 people and 120,000 people who are against the money, and we can't afford to pay so many pensions." If the reverse gold mainly attacks Yulin Fort, we will withdraw to the west of Shaanxi, and the reverse gold should not go deep into the hinterland. ”
"But if we really retreat, how can we talk to the court?" Zhou Lei asked, "I'm a general of the imperial court." ”
"That's easy to say." Xu Lang replied, "Let's just say that I will go to Shaanxi to pacify the Liukou, and play the banner of Lu Xiangsheng or Hong Chengchou again." ”
A few days later, it was already the beginning of May, and Yulin Fort still had no trace of the Eight Banners, and Han Wantao and the others were a little confused.
"Xu Lang, what the hell is going on." Han Wantao asked, "Didn't you say that Azig will come soon, I have scattered the scouts for 50 miles, why is there no news at all, don't they come to fight Yulin Fort this time?" ”
"I don't know." Xu Lang replied, "We just received news from Beiming yesterday, and there is no movement in Beijing, so let's wait and strengthen the fortifications again." ”
Han Wantao walked to the front of the map, and slid his finger back and forth on the map: "Beijing is fine, Xuanfu Town is fine, is it possible that the Eight Banners will attack Datong this time?" But they are 120,000 people, all of them go to Datong? ”
"Or will they attack Ningyuan?" Han Wantao muttered to himself and denied his thoughts again, "Impossible, Wu Sangui now has our artillery, they can't beat Ning Yuan." ”
Xu Lang looked at Han Wantao's expression and couldn't help but smile: "Wan Tao, don't guess. Wang Qianxiang arranged scouts in Datong, if the Eight Banners attacked Datong this time, we would definitely know. ”
"Aren't I in a hurry?" Han Wantao turned around in front of the map, "I'm afraid that the Tartars are coming, I'm worried that the Tartars are coming, but the Tartars haven't come now, so I don't know how to worry about it." ”
"Because the final judgment has not yet arrived, it is not yet known whether the death penalty or the death penalty will be suspended."
"Xu Lang, if we really withdraw, will Beiming be safe in Beijing?"
"Don't worry, I made arrangements before I came, and once there is a change, they will get out through the second general affairs department."
"But my heart is always up and down."
Han Wantao took out a cigarette as he spoke, and before he could light it, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves outside the house.
A dusty scout jumped off his horse and ran into the regimental headquarters office: "Sir, there are 70,000 Tartar soldiers and horses, and they are attacking Datong with all their might. ”
"Did they really go to Datong?" Han Wantao threw away the unlit cigarette in his hand, "What's the specific situation?" ”
"Sir, this time the situation is a bit strange." The scout touched his head, not knowing how to report it for a moment.
"What's weird, say it." Han Wantao was anxious.
"Sir, although the Tartars have 70,000 troops this time, they are not in a hurry to attack, on the contrary, they salute first and then soldiers every time they go to a castle. As long as the castle did not resist, instead of plundering, the Tartars distributed food to the victims, and even the captured castle did not go on a killing spree, but took away all the old, young, women and children. Now that the news has spread in Datong, there are many castles that have opened the door and surrendered, and the general soldiers of Datong have sent six hundred miles to rush to the imperial court for help. ”
"What are they trying to do?" Han Wantao looked back at Xu Lang and asked.
Xu Lang ignored Han Wantao: "You said that there are 70,000 horses in the Tartars, is it accurate?" ”
"Back to sir, accurate." The scout replied, "We have gathered the news from all over the country, and there are only seventy thousand Tartars. ”
"It's hard work, go rest first." Han Wantao waved his hand and retreated from the scout.
"Xu Lang, that's not right. Why are there only 70,000 Tartars, and where did those 50,000 go? ”
"yes, where did the 50,000 go?" Xu Lang walked to the map and looked at it silently for a while, "Wan Tao, we may have been fooled, what a vicious plan." ”
Han Wantao didn't understand: "What do you mean, how did we get fooled, and who did we fall for?" ”
"Wan Tao." Xu Lang turned around and explained, "Salute first and then soldiers, don't loot but help the victims, this is the strategy of attacking the city and attacking the heart first." This strategy can only be thought up by Tao Min, and it is impossible for others to think of it. There is no grain in the Northeast, and this grain must have been brought from North Korea. The Manchu Qing Dynasty was short of people, and the relief of the victims was faster than looting, because the victims would take the initiative to take refuge. Tao Min did this because he wanted Huang Taiji to see the effect of land reform in North Korea, and secondly, I am afraid that he would use this incident to persuade Huang Taiji to also carry out land reform in the northeast. ”
Han Wantao still didn't understand much: "What you said is too complicated, didn't Tao Min let Huang Taiji imprison?" ”
"There is a chance that this news is fake."
"Let's not care if this news is true or not, where will the other 50,000 Eight Banners go?"
"Where will the fifty thousand eight flags go?" Xu Lang turned around and stared at the map for a while.
"him." Xu Lang suddenly stomped his foot fiercely, pointed to a point on the map and shouted, "Naturalization City, those 50,000 Eight Banners must have gone to Naturalization City." Tao Min wants to take Mongolia. ”
Xu Lang turned around, but found that Lin Zhaolong, Zhou Lei and others were already standing in the room.
