485 Rumors Fly All Over the Sky (Part 3)
While they were communicating in the chat group, Dai Shan watched the army go away at the head of Shenyang City, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
I didn't know the whereabouts of the Ming army before, and I felt uneasy in my heart. Now it seems that the courage of the Dongjiang Ming Army has not yet grown enough to dare to come to Shenyang. Judging from the return of the horse exploration, the Dongjiang Ming army should be fleeing.
Speaking of which, since Mao Wenlong's time, what the Dongjiang Ming Army is good at chasing is actually escaping. Every time I came to Liaodong to make trouble, I ran away before Dajin could react. Otherwise, with the strength of the Dajin army and the Dongjiang Ming army, they will definitely be able to defeat him. Even if Governor Nadenlai personally led the army now, it would be impossible to defeat the Dajin army head-on.
For this, Dai Shan is still confident. When he arrived in Korea before, he and Huang Taiji discussed according to the description of the second Babu Sea that the Ming army was just a sneak attack, and if the Dajin army was not careless, it would not be the consequence of the total annihilation. If you really want to talk about it, after the current Dongjiang Ming Army changed to a governor of Denglai, it was only a little stronger than Mao Wenlong at most.
Hehe, this governor of Denglai is really bold, and he dares to personally lead the army to the hinterland of Dajin. If they can be annihilated, the Dongjiang Ming army will suffer heavy losses, at least in the short term!
Thinking so, Dai Shan couldn't help but turn his head to look in the direction of North Korea. He believed that Huang Taiji would definitely take annihilating the main force of the Dongjiang Ming Army and eliminating this turmoil as the top priority as long as the North Korean side got the news. In this way, the Korean army came from the southeast, and even if Mang Gurtai could not draw more manpower, it would be enough to encircle and suppress the Ming army in Dongjiang.
Dai Shan turned his head to look in the direction of Liaoyang again, watching the army bring up dust and go away, and remembered the explanation he had given to Dajin and the Mongol coalition army just now. The requirements for them are not very high, and I believe they will be able to do it. After all, this is a 5,000-strong cavalry army, and its mobility is very strong, so it is not difficult to just hang the Dongjiang Ming army.
"When the time comes, let's use the head of Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Denglai, to pay tribute to the dead clansmen!" Thinking so, Dai Shan turned around and ordered his men to strengthen their vigilance, and then went down to the city.
At the same time, in just one day, Dolgon abandoned the infantry army and led 2,000 cavalry troops to Liaodong as quickly as possible. At this time, he was letting the army rest for a while, and then prepared to rush overnight.
However, he was not idle, and was interrogating the seven or eight Hannu that the detectives had captured from the field. It can be seen that these Han slaves are trying to escape.
"My lord, spare my life, we just heard that Dajin lost the battle, and several cities were occupied by the Ming army, so I thought...... Thinking that they were too vicious, I wanted to run away and hide. ”
"Yes, yes, we are afraid that the Ming army will kill innocents indiscriminately and kill us all!"
"Adults are wise and martial, with adults here, we don't have to escape!"
“……”
Dolgon was annoyed to hear that these slaves were treacherous, and dared to quibble so much. However, his face remained silent, still maintaining an expressionless attitude, and asked coldly in an unquestionable tone: "Tell me everything you have heard about the Ming army!" ”
"My lord, I heard that the army has already conquered Haizhou and is fighting fiercely with the army in the west!"
"Yes, yes, we have all heard that there is a governor of Denglai in the Ming army, who is simply not human, three feet tall, eyes like copper bells, infinite strength, and is fighting with Dajin's Heshuo Belle!"
"I heard that this Ming army and Guan Ning's Ming army are attacking left and right together, so they are about to fight!"
“……”
Among the captives surrounding these Han slaves, those who could understand Chinese looked very ugly one by one. But Dolgon's face remained unchanged, and he interrupted these gossiping Hannu and asked, "How many troops does the Ming army have?" ”
"I heard that there are more than 5,000 people, and a few days ago, Haizhou was overwhelmed. The inner three layers, the outer three layers, attacked day and night to defeat Haizhou! ”
"No, no, those Ming troops have at least tens of thousands of people, otherwise how could the Dajin army not be able to defeat it!"
“……”
Listening to their answers, Dorgon realized that he couldn't ask anything. At least in his opinion, none of these Hannu's words are credible.
He turned his head to look at his resting men, and when he estimated that the time was almost up, he turned and mounted his horse, ready to go.
When those Han slaves saw it, they breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, thinking that with their own wit, they could escape this catastrophe.
Before Dolgon left, he suddenly stared at them and snorted coldly: "Not only do you want to defect to Dajin, but you also want to deceive Ben Baylor and behead him!" ”
As soon as they heard this, these Han slaves were immediately frightened, and hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "The adults are wronged, the villain is true, and he will never dare to deceive Lord Belle!" ”
"Adults, little people are telling the truth......"
“……”
Before they finished speaking, a Jianyu came over, and without saying a word, they cut it directly.
Dorgon took the reins and galloped out. For him, even if what these Han slaves said was true, they had already escaped and should be killed if there was no Jurchen tribesman by their side.
In fact, except for saying that they were afraid that the Ming army would kill innocents indiscriminately, everything else was true. It was far away from Haizhou, and they were worried that the Ming army would not come, so they took the initiative to flee.
Many of the news they heard was spread falsely, and even some of the news was deliberately spread by Lu Xiangsheng's subordinates. It is to plunge the land of Liaodong into chaos, let Jianyu panic, and let Hannu see hope.
However, such rumors can only deceive some ignorant people, for Dolgon, he knows the strength of his side, knows the general military deployment, and also understands the strength of the opponent, so he will only speculate based on what he knows, rather than believing what others say.
But he is also worried that this place is still far away from Haizhou, and some Han Nu heard the news and dared to flee, indicating that the Dongjiang Ming army was indeed very fierce.
Worried by Dolgon, he hurried overnight, and was intercepted by them several groups of fleeing Han slaves, and even saw a Zhuangzi, in which the Jurchen people were killed by the rebellious Han slaves. This exacerbated his worries, I don't know what the situation is in Haizhou, whether the Ming army is still around there?
The Ming army of Dongjiang, or the 800 cavalry led by Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Denglai, had already sneaked to a place less than fifteen miles away from Shenyang at this time.
After all, this Shenyang is the capital of Jianyu, and there are many Zhuangzi in a radius of dozens of miles. If the Dongjiang Ming Army wants to attack Shenyang, it is absolutely impossible! And it is precisely because Shenyang is the capital of the construction that even if the army is empty, the defense is definitely not weak. In addition, there was no effective internal response, so he didn't steal Shenyang after stealing Liaoyang.
