Liaoyang City no longer has the constant entry and exit of troops as before. On the top of the city, there is not much change compared to before. It seems that there are still so many people, and the flags are just those flags.

But if one stands on the top of the city and looks into the city, one can see that there are soldiers everywhere, and the houses are no longer crowded, and there are many of them in the streets. Originally, on the square in front of the official office, there were high piles of grain, and the number was so large that it could be described as a mountain.

The builders at the head of the city turned their heads from time to time to look at these grain piles, and they were envious in their hearts. In the past two years, suffering from food shortage, it is simply undesirable. If they could, they would have liked to have carried a few bags of food home and hid them.

And now the official office is already occupied by Huang Taiji, as his Liaoyang camp. At this time, he was in high spirits, or high morale, and soon after he arrived, he immediately convened a meeting in front of the emperor.

"Your Majesty, there have been several battles in Anshan Post Fort, and the Ming army wants to open up the open space in front of the city to facilitate the assembly of the army, but they have all been repelled by our army and retreated back to the city!" A general was praying.

When Huang Taiji heard this, he immediately asked, "What is the specific battle situation?" ”

"Cao Wenzhao's men rode about 2,000 out of the city, and before half of them, our army sent cavalry to attack, each with casualties, but they were not big, and the Ming army retreated to the city. The fighting took place yesterday afternoon. ”

When Fan Wencheng on the side heard this, he saw that Huang Taiji didn't mean to speak, so he interjected and asked, "What about the new army of the Ming Kingdom?" ”

The general glanced at him, and didn't want to pay attention to the dog, but when he saw that Huang Taiji also showed a look of concern, he directly faced Huang Taiji and said again: "The first battle was only about the Ning army, and Cao Wenzhao commanded at the head of the city. ”

This can be regarded as answering Fan Wencheng's question, and then he immediately continued: "There was another time this morning, it was Cao Bianjiao, the general of the new army of the Ming Kingdom, who commanded at the head of the city, and the soldiers and horses out of the city were more powerful than the Guanning army, and the archers caused a lot of casualties to our army. A new type of musket also appeared, and it was true that firearms were more sophisticated without the need for an arquebus. Our army sent three times the strength to press this new army back into the city. ”

Huang Taiji frowned when he heard this, and thought in his heart, no wonder the Ming army dared to attack on a large scale, it turned out that there was a new reliance.

Thinking so, he immediately asked, "How powerful is that new firearm?" ”

Everyone was very concerned about this question, and they listened attentively one by one.

"Back to Your Majesty, it's not much different from a fine arquebus!"

After saying this, I could clearly hear the sound of relief in the lobby.

At this time, the disgusting voice of the Han dog sounded in the lobby again: "What about Governor Lu Xiangsheng of Denglai?" ”

The general of the report was under Azig, just like his master, he was very disgusted with Fan Wencheng, after hearing this, he glanced at Huang Taiji, and then mocked Fan Wencheng and said: "With the Dongjiang Army's ability to steal chickens and dogs, can it be the turn to fight a field battle with the Qing Dynasty?" ”

Huang Taiji felt the discrimination in his words, so he glanced at Fan Wencheng, but saw that his face was normal, as if he was not shocked by honor and disgrace, or was he accustomed to it?

This good dog can't let him cool down. However, at the moment, he couldn't reprimand the clansmen because of a Han Chinese, so he personally asked: "What is Lu Xiangsheng's movement?" ”

To tell the truth, although the strength of the Dongjiang Army is not very good, Lu Xiangsheng is indeed a capable person, but with a weak brigade, he has repeatedly caused great losses to the Qing Dynasty by stealing chickens and dogs. Therefore, the combat power of the Dongjiang Army can be despised, but it cannot be ignored for Lu Xiangsheng.

"Back to Your Majesty, Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Denglai, seems to be the commander of the Ming army this time, and he has been supervising the battle on the arrow tower of the north gate. Cao Wenzhao, Cao Bianjiao and others, if they did not command their subordinates to go out of the city, would also accompany Lu Xiangsheng's side. ”

Actually, to be precise, Jianyu saw someone in the arrow tower, but because the light was a little dim compared to the outside, and it was far away, it was naturally impossible to see clearly. They just saw Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao accompanied by a tall man in a big red scarlet robe, and judging from their movements, they respected the tall man. Moreover, the Dongjiang Army did have it, and Mao Chengzuo had all wandered around the city, so Jianyu subconsciously confirmed that Lu Xiangsheng was indeed there.

Inside the lobby, just as I was talking about this, there was movement outside, and it was the messenger who had sent a message to the Horqin Grassland to return.

"Your Majesty, as soon as the servant announced the decree, Buhe immediately ordered the gathering of troops. Look, it doesn't take a day to pull it out. ”

There are a lot of things to prepare for any army to pull out, not to say that you can go directly on horseback. It takes less than a day to prune, which is very fast for a tribe like the grassland, which is scattered with grazing.

When Huang Taiji heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said with a smile: "It's really worthy of being my father-in-law, very good, very good!"

After turning back and defeating the Ming army, a large number of cavalry troops were needed to achieve a quick attack and catch the Ming army off guard. Therefore, the army of the Horqin tribe is all cavalry, so it is very necessary.

The sedan chair is carried by everyone, and there are two concubines, such a good thing, naturally many people will save their saliva and praise it.

"Look at those tribes on the grassland, in the end, only the Horqin tribe is really reliable!"

"Who says it isn't! Speaking of which, Your Majesty has a vision, and has picked the one who is the most loyal to me in the Qing Dynasty!"

"I think back then, when I looked at the cloth and his face, I knew that he was a real person!"

“……”

The serious atmosphere in the lobby suddenly became relaxed. However, Huang Taiji was under a lot of pressure, after all, this battle was a battle for the country. So, after taking a breath of relief, he immediately became serious and coughed, quieting the lobby.

Then he began to call the shots: "Where is Zilharang?" ”

"The minister is here!" Zilharang immediately came out of the ranks, and one knelt on the ground and listened to the holy sound.

Huang Taiji stared at him and sternly ordered: "Lead the men and horses of the headquarters, ambush in the west of Liaoyang, kill with the wolf smoke burning in Liaoyang, and attack the left flank of the Ming army!"

"Command!" Zilharang replied with the same seriousness.

Then, Huang Taiji ordered Daishan, Azig, and even Haoge to ambush each other, also with Liaoyang Wolf Smoke as the number.

"The rest of the men and horses, hiding in the city, just waiting for the Ming army to come to attack the city, and then attack inside and outside, annihilating the Ming army in one fell swoop!"

As soon as Huang Taiji's voice fell, the lobby suddenly sounded with excitement.

As soon as the pre-imperial meeting ended, Liaoyang suddenly became lively again. Of course, let the front-line Yue Tuo's army feign to be invincible, and the messenger who retreated to Liaoyang also galloped away.
