Although the accuracy of the new army's artillery bombardment surprised Jianyu, there were also a lot of large-scale siege equipment in Jianlu, and under the accelerated speed, they finally slowly approached Gaizhou City.

At the same time, in the hall of the Jinzhou Yamen, Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Denglai, who had just returned and rested for the night, issued another order to convene a military meeting of his subordinates.

I saw him sitting on the main seat, and said solemnly and loudly: "The first battle of our army in Xinjin did not attract Jian Yu to come to the rescue immediately. At this time, they were attacking Gaizhou with all their might. ”

After a brief introduction to the situation, Lu Xiangsheng glanced at the faces of each general in the hall and said very powerfully: "The ferocity of Jianyu is unheard of!" The construction will not be destroyed, and the people's anger will not be eliminated. Since they don't care, it's that our army doesn't hurt to fight. Therefore, the official decided that the enemy must be saved, and the best strategy is to relieve the siege of Gaizhou! ”

Hearing this, many generals in the hall were not only not afraid, but were excited to fight one by one.

"Lord Zhongcheng, are you going to fight Liaoyang again? The end will be wished! ”

"The last general suggested, just attack Shenyang, it's a great achievement to take it down, and if you can't take it, it's enough to scare the prisoner into a pot!"

“……”

Listening to their voices of fighting, Lu Xiangsheng felt a little relieved in his heart, they were all good! As everyone knows, there is an old saying in China, one soldier will be a nest of bears. With a general like Lu Xiangsheng, his subordinates will naturally not have a bad seed!

I saw him stretch out his hand and signal, and the lobby, which was extremely noisy just now, suddenly became very quiet, obviously his power was enough, so I heard him say: "Okay, bring two cannons, this official will lead you all the way to Shenyang!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the lobby was still very quiet. Obviously, none of the generals below reacted, they didn't expect that Lu Xiangsheng would really give such an order, and he would personally lead the army!

Lu Xiangsheng saw that they didn't speak, so he snorted coldly and said, "Why, was it just talking just now?" ”

As soon as he said this, all the generals came back to their senses and were immediately excited. I really want to fight Shenyang, do it!

"Obey the military orders of Lord Zhongcheng!" Many generals immediately responded loudly, and their emotions seemed very high.

However, Xu Fuzuo, who was old and serious, after a little hesitation, still made a different voice and said: "Lord Zhongcheng, this time is different from the past, the capital city that was built and captured, even if their slave chieftain is not there, must be heavily guarded!" Even if our Dongjiang Army is dispatched with all its troops, I am afraid that it will be difficult to defeat Shenyang! And...... And ......"

"And what?" Lu Xiangsheng remained silent and asked lightly.

When Xu Fuzuo heard this, he did not hesitate, and immediately said: "There was a precedent of being attacked by our Dongjiang army before, and the last general thought that the shrewdness of the Enu chieftain would not make it easy for our army to escape, and he would definitely send an elite to cut off the possible return route of our army." Lord Zhongcheng, the main force of Jianyu now, is all in Liaodong! ”

"What, Xu Fuzuo, are you scared?" Mao Chengzuo didn't wait for Lu Xiangsheng to speak, so he sneered at Xu Fuzuo in a cold voice, "If Shenyang is defeated, it will be a great credit, understand?" ”

Xu Fuzuo's face changed when he heard this, he hesitated before, just because he was afraid that there would be such a hat on his head, so he hurriedly replied loudly: "What am I afraid of, my whole family has been captured by Jian, what am I afraid of?" I'm cautious, I'm just worried...... Otherwise, please tell the emperor and see what the emperor means......"

Mao Chengzuo listened disappreciatively, thinking that he was afraid but moved out of the emperor to oppress people! The other generals also wanted to speak, seeing that there was going to be a quarrel in the lobby.

Seeing this, Lu Xiangsheng waved his hand to stop all of them from speaking, and said in a gentle tone: "You don't need to say it anymore, I understand what you think in your heart." In that case, the official finished speaking. ”

Hearing him say this, all the generals couldn't help but look at him, curious to see what he meant by what he was going to finish.

"The meaning of this official is that the hussar battalion will go north with artillery, go out of Xiaoshan Mountain, and after passing Xinjin, go directly north along the coast first, advance with great fanfare, and when it encounters the town of Jianjiao, the artillery will open up, and when it encounters a large city, it will bypass." Lu Xiangsheng explained in a deep voice, "The purpose of our army is to force the slave chieftain to divide his troops to rescue, if he does not move, he will continue to go north and kill all the way to Shenyang." ”

Speaking of this, he paused and then said: "According to the official's estimate, the Slave Chief heard about the movements of our army, and it is absolutely impossible to ignore them again. And as soon as he makes a move, our army will be the first to know, and he can immediately and quietly return quickly, so as to achieve the purpose of supporting Gaizhou! ”

In fact, if you want to go north from Jinzhou to Shenyang, the best way is to follow the original official road, first to Gaizhou Haizhou, and then to Shenyang through Liaoyang.

And if the strength of the Dongjiang Army is sufficient, another good way to support Gaizhou is to defeat Fuzhou, which is between Jinzhou and Gaizhou. It's just a pity that during the previous autumn harvest operation, it was evacuated from Fuzhou to Changsheng Island. Therefore, the Jianyu on the Fuzhou side can be regarded as a heavy defense, and it is not something that the current Dongjiang Army can gnaw.

Knowing the true purpose of this operation, many generals couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in their hearts, but they were also a little relaxed. It's not that they don't understand that Shenyang is actually not something they can really chew on, but what if, it's just in case!

Lu Xiangsheng glanced at the generals again, and finally reiterated: "The fundamental purpose of this winter battle in Liaodong is to toss Jianyu and exhaust Jianlu's strength. Therefore, although this battle is not really going to fight Shenyang, its importance is comparable to winning Shenyang! The generals must not slack off, do you understand? ”

"The last general understands!" This time, it was all the generals who responded in unison.

After letting his subordinates go out to prepare, Lu Xiangsheng turned to Wei Mulan, who had been standing beside him, and said, "Tell the emperor, just say that our army is about to set off!" ”

Wei Mulan nodded, and after waiting for a while, she said to Lu Xiangsheng: "The emperor's decree is to let Zhongcheng be as careful as possible, and send more guards at night and far away." said that the current source can only be Huang Taiji's side, if there are local generals who act without authorization, the emperor will not know in time! ”

Lu Xiangsheng nodded, this is for sure. It is certainly impossible to rely on only one source and ignore the conventions of the army. Especially this time, it is necessary to go out with great fanfare and expose the whereabouts to Jianyu, and it is even more necessary to be cautious and cautious!

Besides, outside Gaizhou City at this time, on the arrow towers that were pushed closer, the Mongolian archers at the top began to shoot arrows regardless of whether the range was sufficient. They were expecting that this would cause panic among the Ming troops at the head of the city.

And those catapults, too, didn't have time to fix them, so they thought about launching stones. Piles of people, in a panic, began to load the stones and pull the levers.
