Jin Jun suffered a loss in a daze, and also frightened Liu Zhilun, Li Yu, You Shiwei and others who were watching the excitement in the city, what a great power! Ding Qiming, who slipped back, hurriedly declared: "I didn't do it!" ”

"It's so beautiful that you, it's blown up, it must be a thousand pounds of heavy artillery in the city, we don't dare to use these things ourselves for a long time, Jianyi is really stupid and bold," Wang Shiqin, who is familiar with the situation around Shanhaiguan, said lightly, and then complained, "We Daming spent money and effort to build the city strong and thick, and also installed firearms, but we can't keep it cheap others, it's just asking for hardship, this Zunhua City is not filled in with thousands of lives, don't want to conquer it, it's useless for the thousands of people behind us to come, let's think of other ways." ”

"Zunhua is not easy to fight, let's fight Qian'an, there are few defenders there, maybe there is a chance to take it." You Shilu thought for a while and said.

"No, Qian'an is too close to Yongping, Jianyi's reinforcements can arrive at any time, the siege is too dangerous, and we must trap Zunhua Jianyi, this little force is not enough." Yang Qi said more cautiously.

"There is no risk in the war, instead of letting Jianyi fight us, it is better for us to take the initiative to fight Jianyi, we rush to Qian'an, of course it is good to be able to succeed, if we can't succeed, we will attract Yongping Jianyi to come to reinforcements, we choose a favorable battlefield near Qian'an to ambush them, Luanzhou should have done it in the past two days, Sun Chengzong and Ma Shilong have 200,000 people, Jianyi can't draw many troops to deal with us," You Shiwei put on the posture of the boss and said to everyone, "Leave our volunteers in Zunhua, Send some people to protect them, Jianyi is weak and will never dare to go out of the city, Yiyong pulled to the battlefield can not work, just dig a ditch here, trap Jianyi in the city, the rest of us all rushed to Qian'an, that Wu Zimian is not always following behind, this time also pull him into the gang, we won the Yongping reinforcements, Zunhua, Qian'an is our bag, if we lose, we pat our ass and leave. ”

You Shiwei saw that everyone nodded in agreement, patted Li Yu's shoulder and said: "Yuzi, you still have to do this errand to lure the enemy, your cavalry and horses are good to run fast, it is best to grab Qian'an, if not, give Jianyi a stab and run, and the old uncle will meet you on the west side of the Luanhe River in Qian'an."

"Okay, that's it." Li Yu agreed after a little thought, this is the most suitable place for him to lure the enemy, and he really doesn't want to die under Zunhua City.

"Yuzi, my uncle told you, you can't die in a war, Qian'an is not easy to fight, just find trouble with the Jianchang battalion, the Jianyi troops there are definitely not as good as Qian'an, you will move between Qian'an and the Jianchang battalion, and you will beat them when you seize the opportunity." Wang Shiqin also gave Li Yu an idea, he had been in the Shanhaiguan area for a long time, and the situation here was more familiar.

In the end, everyone agreed that the Fengzhou Iron Cavalry was commanded by Li Yu to attack Qian'an, Liu Zhilun sat in Zunhua, and continued to dig ditches to besiege Zunhua with his bravery, and after the follow-up troops of the Northwest Frontier Army arrived, 500 people were assigned to stay in Zunhua, and You Shiwei and others led their respective families and other elite border troops to move to Qian'an, and chose a favorable battlefield west of the Luan River to ambush the Jin Army.

The idea was decided, everyone asked Liu Zhilun to give an order, Liu Zhilun didn't speak just now, all the people present were old military affairs, and he said everything that should be said, he just repeated the idea that everyone discussed, but he suggested that Li Yu's iron cavalry first set up camp and rest for the night, and then send troops early tomorrow morning.

Li Yu had already chosen the place where everyone would set up camp, and there were mountains everywhere near Zunhua, so he decided to set up the camp in a hill not far from Zunhua, and he didn't do anything about camping under the city, he wanted to find places that could be defended and easy to escape. When camping, Wu Zimian was shyly pulled by Wang Chengen and Yang Jiamo, he said in front of everyone that his old Wu was willing to join the organization and advance and retreat with everyone - Wu Zimian's matter is not over, the emperor set up the prince to announce an amnesty to the world, but this did not help him much, he was angry with the governor, the army mutiny and the deputy general soldier surrendered to the enemy, these three things together had a bad impact, the ministers would definitely not let him go, and he could be imprisoned for any reason in the future, he didn't want to keep the position of the general soldier now, but counted on establishing some military merits, Keep yourself safe for the rest of your life.

Wu Zimian also made a suggestion, he saw that there were three camps of the Ming army in this area, it is said that Yang Zhaoji is still there, he and Yang Zhaoji are Shandong villagers, the friendship is very good, Wu Zimian asked everyone if they need to pull Lao Yang into the gang, everyone immediately fell silent, Wu Zimian just wanted to pull the villagers to be his companions, but did not take into account the feelings of other people, in the eyes of the Northwest generals, he Wu Zimian and Yang Zhaoji, is the sand mixed in by the imperial court to suppress the people in the northwest - Wu Zimian This guy is not his own person, Everyone sees that you are the chief soldier of Yulin, and you are still thinking about it.

You Shilu shook his head and said: "Yang Zhaoji is too big an official and has old qualifications, he has served as the chief soldier of Yansui and the prime minister of the Northwest Military Affairs, and his official title is the governor of the left capital of Zhengyipin, and he likes to rely on the old and sell the old, and he can't get along with everyone when he is in Jizhou, we can't afford to serve this uncle, and most of the soldiers in the Santun camp are Shandong soldiers, and the combat power is too poor, and it is also troublesome to come." ”

Of course, Wu Zimian understands what the generals in the northwest are thinking, but if he doesn't pull a trustworthy person in, he will not be steady, who knows if these people from the northwest will play him, he hurriedly said: "Lao Yang still has a set of people to fight, we have too few people, I only have two hundred families, and there are only about five hundred elite soldiers, our troops are a little enough to deal with Jianyi, and the Shandong soldiers are almost, but most of Lao Yang's family members have fought in the northwest, and they can be regarded as elites, I went to him to make it clear that if you work with us, you have to abide by our rules, If he dares to rely on the old and sell the old and crush everyone, my old Wu will not agree. ”

Liu Zhilun really couldn't listen to it anymore, what are these Ming town marshals, discussing military affairs was made by them like a ** party, he snorted and went out - Na Mu'er was still practicing writing and singing, he had to go back and see, and the marshals didn't bother to pay attention to him and continue to talk about their own affairs.

Li Yu agreed with Wu Zimian: "My Fengzhou Iron Cavalry can only use 1,500 people now, and the righteousness and courage are not useful, our little men and horses are too bad to fight with the Jin army, it is always a good thing to increase some people, even if it is worth it with a little credit." ”

"Then let's go hard to Wu Shuai, but you have to tell him that if you want to join the gang, you have to discuss things together, don't think that you can point fingers if you are old enough to be an official." You Shiwei calculated in his heart, the family Ding and Fengzhou iron cavalry that they can fight add up to only about 2,700 people, and the other so-called elite Ming army can only use 3,000 people in addition to the people who stayed in Zunhua, and it is too mysterious to fight with Yongping's Jin army, with his many years of experience in fighting in Liaodong, without more than three times the strength advantage, this battle will not be easy to fight, if the Ming army in Santun camp can come, it will indeed be good for them.

Early the next morning, the Fengzhou Iron Cavalry, who had rested for the night, was preparing to set off, Liu Zhilun sent someone to call Li Yu and the military leaders to the big tent of the Chinese army, and said with a letter: "This is a letter just sent from Jizhou, Qiu Hejia said in the letter, the chief of Jianzhou has led the main force of Jiannu to withdraw the army out of the customs on the third day of the first month of March, and Sun Ge Lao has ordered Jizhou and Shanhaiguan to send troops to attack Luanzhou, and he wants us to quickly rush south to Luanzhou City to meet them and attack Luanzhou together. ”

You Shiwei sneered: "Elder Sun Ge probably intervened in Yong'an, this time the reaction is not slow, how does Lord Liu think it should be handled?" ”

"When I went out of Jizhou, I have already reported to the emperor, this time to send troops to Zunhua is Liu and you have succeeded in becoming benevolent, and our army won the first battle, Zunhua is about to conquer, how can I give up halfway, Liu has been ordered by the emperor to go on the expedition, unless the court has a new order, the orders of others will not obey."

"That's right, we beat ours, they beat theirs, everyone has nothing to do, anyway, they have people, and there is no shortage of us, even if we go to take Luanzhou, the credit is also Ma Shilong, Zu Dashou them, nothing to do with us, we follow Lord Liu to the end," You Shiwei said to everyone, "200,000 people are not even ready for siege equipment, so they go to Luanzhou in a hurry, wait and see, there will be a good show." ”

"That's it, the credit here is almost there, the fools went to join in the fun, they went to Luanzhou to fight the best, and they restrained Jianyi, and we can also take advantage of the opportunity." Wu Zimian shouted on the side, and the generals also shouted, gearing up to take advantage of it.

Liu Zhilun saw that everyone was united and enthusiastic, and shouted in an impassioned tone: "This official has written a chapter last night to report the victory, and sent someone to send it to Beijing overnight, the emperor must look forward to our early recovery of Zunhua and Qian'an, and the monarchs must move forward bravely, cut off the enemy's rear road, and destroy the remnants." ”

The crowd was in high spirits, shouting and killing, and Li Yu took the Fengzhou Iron Horse on the road with a sound of encouragement and farewell.

Yongping, Jierharang received a report from Chakhala and Fan Wencheng, and suddenly there was a chaotic Ming army wrapped in a large number of people to attack Zunhua, the leader was actually the rebellious Erlu, after a fierce battle, the Dajin army thwarted the Ming army's siege attempt, but the Ming army was too numerous to kill, they also used a large number of people to dig ditches and destroy roads, trying to trap Zunhua for a long time, Chakhala, Fan Wenchen said that they must be stable in Zunhua, but there are too many miscellaneous soldiers and mobs under the city, and they are too few to drive away, Therefore, I hope that Yongping can send them some reinforcements to maintain the peace of Zunhua.

Zilharang handed the letter to Sakhalian and Abatai, shook his head slightly, and said, "These two people are not Erlu's opponents, they must have suffered a loss, but they are embarrassed to ask for help, so they said that they asked us to send someone to help them maintain the place." ”

"Then should we go to Zunhua first, and then turn around to reinforce Luanzhou?" Sakhalian frowned and asked-Luanzhou reported an emergency, the main force of the Ming army in Jizhou and Shanhaiguan was heading towards Luanzhou, Luanzhou was about to be surrounded, and asked Yongping to quickly reinforce it, Yongping has mobilized 3,000 soldiers and horses to be led by Sakhalian and Abatai, and is preparing to go on the road to reinforce Luanzhou.

Zilharang thought for a while before answering: "Fan Wencheng is cautious, he can write this letter, indicating that the situation in Zunhua can still be controlled, and there will be no major events for the time being, but the situation in Luanzhou is different, the Ming army has gathered at least 200,000 people in Jizhou and Shanhaiguan, that is, half of it is taken out to fight Luanzhou, and the number is more than 100,000, and our strength in Luanzhou is only a thousand people, the disparity in strength is too great, we must not make a slight mistake, the plan to send troops to reinforce Luanzhou cannot be changed, and the matter of Zunhua will be solved later." ”

"The Ming army's attack on Luanzhou was expected by the Great Khan, and we did as the Great Khan instructed when he left, but I didn't expect the Ming army to have the courage to fight Zunhua, Zunhua and Qian'an are related to the passage of our army in and out of the border wall, Fan Wencheng loves face, maybe the situation in Zunhua is worse than what the letter said, Lord Belle, do you see if you also send some people to reinforce Zunhua." Sony was left in Yongping to handle clerical affairs this time, he reminded carefully.

"Fan Wencheng said in the letter, Erlu's rebellion has also arrived in Zunhua, maybe Aita is also with him, these two people are too familiar with us, and the slave is always worried that something will happen to these two people, and Lao Fan is not a piece of war material, Zunhua should not be lost in his hands." Sakhalian's clothed servant Ning Wan was favored by Tiancong Khan, and this time he was also left in Yongping, giving him a chance to make military merits, and he also took the opportunity to interject.

"We are also familiar with Erlu and Aita, these two people are not easy to deal with, especially that Erlu, it is too slippery, there are fewer people who can't beat him, and more people go to be stained by him, and I can't get rid of my hands for ten days and a half months, so I made up my mind to clean up the Ming army in Luanzhou first, and then turn back to deal with Erlu," Zilharang walked a few steps behind his back, and then said categorically, "The reinforcements to Luanzhou immediately hit the road, according to the method that the Great Khan said, the hidden march waited for the opportunity to move, and when the Ming army's attack was frustrated and the troops were under the city, the quick battle was broken in one fell swoop, I have my own way to do Zunhua, you don't have to think about it. ”

After the discussion, Sakhalian and Abatai set off with men and horses, and Zilharang began to recruit men and horses, in fact, he was also worried about Zunhua, but he had to reinforce Luanzhou, and also to guard against the Ming army of Shanhaiguan to attack Yongping, and then it was difficult to send reinforcements to Zunhua, after piecing together, he made up five hundred gold soldiers, of which four hundred were sent to Zunhua, and the other hundred people were sent to the Jianchang battalion - the Jianchang battalion currently has only one hundred banner soldiers, if Zunhua is lost, this is the last retreat of the Jin army in Guannei, and it must be increased just in case, But 400 people to reinforce Zunhua is obviously too weak, he found 500 people from the Ming army in Yongping, and then ordered Qian'an to send 100 troops, and finally gathered a thousand people to go to Zunhua, this is not enough, he found a bunch of tattered Zhushen clothes and ordered the Ming army to change the troops, and found some thick hemp rope to dye black with ink, so that the soldiers were tied to their heads, and then put on hats, from a distance, this group of soldiers really looked like a group of pigtail soldiers, Zilharang was very satisfied with his clever plan to scatter beans into soldiers, these people will definitely not be able to fight tough battles, But it should be good to scare people, even if Elu and Liu Aita see the 1,000 and 8 banner soldiers, they don't dare to act rashly, as long as they can survive these few days, as soon as Sakhalian and Abatai come back, everything will be easy to do, it is more troublesome to lead the officers, and there are few officers who can fight in Yongping, he thought about it and decided to send Bai Ge, a third-class staff general who guarded Qian'an, to lead this army, which is also a battle-hardened and accomplished general.

Bai Ge definitely didn't want to go, since Li Yu left the Jin Kingdom, he seemed to be beaten back to his original shape, and began to be lazy again, when the yellow flag and the white flag were changed, he relied on his outstanding performance in following Li Yu to fight on the Xilamulun River and Anshan Fort, and was regarded as a rare talent, Haoge specially left him in the Yellow Banner and gave him a promotion, but his future performance was miserable, and he was mixed to the point where he couldn't stay in the Red Armor Bayara, Bai Ge also figured it out, without the Erlu brothers, he would be a waste material, don't think about military merits, Forget about living by eating his old book, he didn't get any military merits this time, so others went home happily, but he was left to guard Qian'an, but he didn't complain, he didn't make any effort in the previous battle, and it was natural to leave him, as long as he didn't fight, then he would hide in Qian'an and let him go home sooner or later, what he didn't expect was that Jilharangbeile suddenly remembered him, this errand was dangerous, and he was not afraid of fighting with the Ming army, but when he thought that Elu was also in Zunhua, his legs were weak.

Bai Ge didn't have the courage not to listen to the order, he met the people and horses from Yongping in Qian'an, and he went on the road in fear, he still has actual combat experience, his own people and horses are too mixed, most of them are temporarily incorporated into the army's pawns, Aha, especially the group of soldiers who pretend to be the Jin Army are poorly equipped and demoralized, this group of people can still defend the city, and it is absolutely impossible to fight in the field, so he gathered the men and horses together to march, never dispersed, rather slowed down the march, and a large number of scouts were also released, and paid attention to the surrounding wind and grass at any time. Bai Ge's caution did not bring him peace, and shortly after wading across the Luan River, he suddenly received a report from the scouts that an unknown number of Ming troops had appeared in front of him, and the other party's scouts were too strong for them to approach and observe the other party's marching procession. Bai Ge was shocked in his heart, the hand of the Ming army was so fast, his hand had already stretched out to Qian'an, after hesitating for a while, he ordered to reorganize the team, and slowly advance in a good battle formation, ready to meet the battle at any time, in order to strengthen the momentum, he also ordered the Jin army to continue to blow the trumpet and shout, and a few elites were also placed in the forefront to challenge the posture, if the Ming army could be scared away, it would be great.

From Zunhua to Qian'an less than two hundred miles, but this area is the Jin army control area, Li Yu and Liu Xingzuo, Bai Xianzhi are more cautious, the speed of the march is not fast, try to avoid the road during the day, scouts are sent in large numbers, in the team around the formation of a twenty-mile warning area, at night also choose a safe place to camp, this road is also safe, close to Qian'an when the enemy situation was discovered, there is about a thousand gold troops in front, is in a state of battle to press them.
