Chapter 714: Battle

"Gentlemen, please get up."

Naren Toya stretched out his hand to signal Zhao Shujiao and the others, who were saluting, to get up, and then explained in a deep voice, "The reason why the lord of this county will go out with the scholars this time is to take care of the diet and daily life of the scholars, and secondly, to help the scholars contact the Mongolian tribes. ”

"If the scholars know that you are doing your best to save you today, I will be very relieved in my heart!"

As she spoke, Narentoya turned her voice around and said with emotion, obviously she didn't want to get entangled in the matter of women disguising themselves as men.

In fact, Zhao Shujiao, Zu Dashou and others didn't care that Li Hongyu took Naren Tuoya with him, everyone knew that Li Hongyu was not a lustful person, and he was usually busy with official business, so he hoped that Naren Tuoya would take care of Li Hongyu, so that Li Hongyu would have more energy to focus on the war in western Liaoning.

Besides, Naren Toya is the little princess of the Mongolian Trans-Khalkha Department, and Li Hongyu has always had a good relationship with the Mongols, and this time Naren Toya's arrival is also conducive to Li Hongyu to find Lin Dan Khan to send troops to help.

"County Lord, the scholars did not hesitate to risk their lives to meet the enemy in Shimen Mountain for the sake of the soldiers and civilians of Liaoxi, how could we, as soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, sit back and watch the scholars fall into a predicament!"

Hearing this, Zhao Shujiao bowed to Naren Tuoya, and said loudly, even Li Hongyu, a member of the imperial court, is not afraid of death, so how could they, the soldiers under Li Hongyu, escape alone?

Besides, if Li Hongyu, who is the most capable of fighting in the Ming Dynasty, has an accident, then who will be able to lead them to victory in the future? Without Li Hongyu's strategizing and scheduling, they would have died under the blade of Houjin sooner or later.

"County Lord, since the Mongols are coming soon, then we will concentrate our forces tomorrow to attack the Jiannu outside the city with all our might!" Yuan Chonghuan knew that the situation was urgent, so he bowed his hand to Naren Toya and said.

The only way to do this is that only by defeating the Houjin army outside the city, the Ming army in Jinzhou City can smoothly go to Shimen Mountain to rescue, so no matter whether the Houjin army outside the city is a Jurchen soldier or a Han army, the Ming army in Jinzhou City can only defeat it There is a way to go.

Of course, if there were many Jurchen soldiers in the barracks outside the city, Yuan Chonghuan could only let the troops retreat back to the city, otherwise what awaited those Ming soldiers was the fate of collapse, and these Ming troops in western Liaoning did not have the same tenacious will to fight as the soldiers of the forbidden army and the navy.

Therefore, Yuan Chonghuan could only pray in his heart that there were only a few Jurchen soldiers in the Houjin army camp outside the city, so that they could defeat those Han troops in Houjin.

"Lord Yuan, the safety of Jinzhou City cannot be compromised, at least five thousand people must be left to defend the city, so that the people in the city can hold on until the Mongols arrive."

Naren Toya groaned for a moment when she heard this, and then said to Yuan Chonghuan in a coquettish voice, although she wanted to rescue Li Hongyu, she couldn't ignore the comfort of the people of Jinzhou City.

"Don't worry, the county lord will arrange enough manpower to defend the city."

Yuan Chonghuan bowed slightly to Naren Tuoya when he heard this, and then said in a deep voice to Zhao Shujiao, Zu Dashou and others, "Pass the order, cook at the beginning of the fifth watch tomorrow, start the meal at the end of the day, and then go out of the city with the official to meet the enemy, and tell the soldiers that this battle is related to the safety of the university soldiers, and Xu Sheng will not be defeated!" ”

"Obedience!" Hearing this, Zhao Shujiao, Zu Dashou and other generals bowed down one after another, and the atmosphere seemed a little sluggish.

In the eyes of the generals, Li Hongyu's safety is equivalent to the safety of Liaoxi, if Li Hongyu has any accidents, then the Ming army in Liaoxi can only withdraw to Shanhaiguan, and even Ningyuan cannot be defended.

"County Lord, you are a daughter and it is not suitable to be in danger, so you should stay in the city to supervise the battle, and this official will personally lead the army out of the city to attack the enemy."

After Zhao Shujiao and the others left, Yuan Chonghuan bowed to Naren Tuoya and said, he didn't want Naren Tuoya to go out of the city and take risks, how to explain to Li Hongyu if something happened?

"Lord Yuan, Xianggong is the husband of the county lord, how can the county lord turn a blind eye to him now that he is in danger?"

Naren Toya shook his head when he heard this, and said to Yuan Chonghuan, "My lord is the lord of Jinzhou City, he should sit in the city to supervise the battle, and the matter of leading the army is better to be handed over to the county lord, the county lord has practiced archery and horses since he was a child, and ordinary people are not the opponents of the county lord." ”

"The county lord is wrong, tomorrow's battle is not only related to the safety of the scholars, but also determines the safety of the people of Jinzhou City, once Shimen Mountain is broken by Jiannu, the people of Jinzhou City will also be in danger."

Yuan Chonghuan naturally would not stay in the city to supervise the battle, but at this time, it was a critical moment to go to the battlefield desperately, seeing that he could not persuade Naren Toya to stay, he could only take a step back and said to Naren Toya in a deep voice, "This official and the county lord will fight together and defeat the Jiannu outside the city in one fell swoop!" ”

"There's Lord Lao Yuan."

Naren Toya knew that now was not the time to be polite, and Yuan Chonghuan would definitely not be able to stay in Jinzhou City, so he did not object, but bowed to Yuan Chonghuan and said, in the final analysis, Yuan Chonghuan is the supreme governor of Jinzhou City, and his order cannot be resisted.

The next day, early in the morning.

The colonel field in Jinzhou City was full of soldiers of the Ming army, all with serious expressions, and the atmosphere at the scene seemed quite gloomy, and no one knew what happened to them, and they had breakfast on the fifth watch.

"Soldiers, the scholars stayed in Shimen Mountain for our safety, and now Jiannu already knows about it, so they did not attack Jinzhou City but attacked Shimen Mountain with all their might, Shimen Mountain only has more than 10,000 officers and soldiers, and the scholars are now in danger."

On the platform, Yuan Chonghuan and Naren Toya and others stood with their helmets and armor on, Yuan Chonghuan glanced around at the soldiers on the scene, and said loudly:

"Compared with Jinzhou City, Jiannu is more concerned about the scholars on Shimen Mountain, the official has received the news, there are only a small number of Jurchen soldiers in the Jiannu military camp outside the city, and the rest are the Han army that surrendered to Jiannu, for the safety of the scholars and Jinzhou, and for the future of Liaodi, the official decided to go out of the city to attack the Jiannu camp, and rush to Shimen Mountain after eliminating the Jiannu outside the city!"

As soon as these words came out, there was a commotion on the colonel's field, and the soldiers couldn't help but look at each other, never thinking that it would be the Han army of Jiannu who besieged them, so Shimen Mountain would be dangerous.

"Soldiers, this time this official will fight with the county lord of Caixia, I hope everyone will work together to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop!" Seeing this, Yuan Chonghuan stretched out his hand and pressed down, and after the scene regained calm, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Naren Tuoya on the side, and said loudly.

With a bang, there was another commotion at the scene, and no one would have imagined that the handsome young general in front of him would be Li Hongyu's wife.

"Brothers, the lord of this county is the princess of the Khalkha Department of Mongolia, and thanks to the Longen of Wanli Ye, he was awarded the title of the lord of Daming and married to the university scholar."

Seeing this, Naren Toya walked to the front of the Dianjiang platform, which made the colonel's field fall silent for a moment, she glanced around at the soldiers who were looking at her in unison, and said in a cold and coquettish voice:

"The lord of this county was entrusted by the scholar to contact the Mongolian Lin Dan Khan to send troops to attack Jiannu, although after ups and downs, but Lin Dan Khan finally sent troops to attack Jiannu, and now the university scholar is in danger, the county lord decided to personally go out to conquer Jiannu outside the city, and rush to the aid of Shimen Mountain!"

"Brothers, the university scholars treat us well, for us to stay in Shimen Mountain to meet the enemy, we can't be a bad seed, otherwise we will be laughed at by the world, shameless to face the parents and elders in the family, shame our parents and relatives, and even more sorry for the people who are suffering in Liaodi."

After Naren Toya's voice lagged behind, Zhao Shujiao walked quickly to her side, raised his right fist and shouted, "Conquer Jiannu and rush to the aid of Shimen!" ”

"Conquer Jiannu and rush to the aid of Shimen! Conquer Jiannu and rush to the aid of Shimen ......"

Hearing this, the soldiers at the scene raised their right fists and shouted in unison, which boosted the morale of the scene and made the atmosphere even more depressed.

"Xianggong, they are all fighting for you, and your hard work is not in vain."

Looking at the enthusiastic Ming army soldiers in the audience, Naren Toya's heart suddenly felt very relieved, and the image of Li Hongyu couldn't help but appear in front of him, if it weren't for Li Hongyu, I'm afraid these soldiers would not have such high morale, let alone go out of the city to attack the Jiannu camp.

"Out!" Yuan Chonghuan saw that the morale of the soldiers had been mobilized, so he took out the long sword on his waist and pointed at the exit of the big school field, and shouted loudly.

The Ming army on the school field suddenly surged like a tide, and went to the exit after passing the point of the general's platform, a big battle was about to be approached, this was the Ming army since the battle of Liaoshen took the initiative to attack the camp of Houjin, no matter what the result was, its significance was already extraordinary.

Outside the city, a slave camp was built.

Li Yongfang, who was asleep, was awakened by the shouts of the soldiers in the city to "conquer Jiannu and rush to the aid of Shimen", but when he pricked up his ears to listen, the sound disappeared again.

Because he was in a daze just now, Li Yongfang didn't hear what the Ming soldiers were shouting, and at the same time, he couldn't be sure whether he really heard that voice.

However, for some reason, he felt an inexplicable panic and irritability, so he was completely sleepy, so he asked the guards to bring armor and put it on, and prepared to climb the lookout to check the movement in Jinzhou City.

"Kill!" Just as Li Yongfang had just put on his armor, he suddenly heard a deafening shout of killing coming from the direction of Jinzhou City outside the camp gate.

"Oops!" Li Yongfang was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly rushed out of the camp tent to check, with an ominous premonition in his heart.

"My lord, it's not good, the gate of Jinzhou City opened, and the Ming army inside came out and went straight to our camp." Halfway through, a general of the Han army rushed over in a panic and said after bowing his hand to Li Yongfang.

"How many are there?" Li Yongfang's heart suddenly sank, and he hurriedly asked.

"Back to my lord, I don't know how many of them are pressing."

The general wiped the cold sweat oozing from his forehead, and then said tentatively, "My lord, the Ming army thinks that there are 20,000 soldiers and horses outside our city, so this attack is likely to be dispatched by the whole army, how will our army respond?" ”

Li Yongfang's face suddenly changed when he heard this, and the thing he was most worried about was inevitable, he originally thought that he could scare the Ming army in the city, but he didn't expect the Ming army to dare to attack the camp, it seemed that he wanted to rescue Li Hongyu in Shimen Mountain.

"Order, we have no way to retreat, once defeated, Daming and Dajin will not let us go, so we must block their offensive."

As Nurhachi's trusted Han official, Li Yongfang was very aware of the importance of the Battle of Shimenshan, and once the Ming army in Jinzhou broke through his camp, it would disrupt Nurhachi's deployment, so he said to the general with a blank face: "

"This official will ask the Great Khan for help, as long as Dajin's reinforcements arrive in Jinzhou, the Ming army will be annihilated, if anyone dares to escape from the battle, there will be no mercy!"

"Obedience." When the general heard this, he bowed his hand to Li Yongfang and left in a hurry, the look on his face was quite flustered, God knew that the Ming army in Jinzhou City dared to come out to attack the camp.

Li Yongfang did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly sent people to ride quickly to Nurhachi in Shimen Mountain to report for help, and the Houjin Han army outside Jinzhou alone could not stop the offensive of the Ming army in the city.

"I hope it's too late!" Looking at the soldiers who were flying away to report the news, Li Yongfang couldn't help but pray secretly in his heart that if he couldn't stop the Ming army in Jinzhou in time, then Nurhachi's hard work in Shimen Mountain would come to naught.
