Chapter 589: Let them go
The reckless man Gurtai was still confused, and he said suspiciously: "Second brother, could it be that 'God Killer' is terminally ill and will die soon?" ”
Dai Shan said: "The fifth brother still needs to be experienced!" Look at everyone, they all know that the 'killing god' is self-defeating, but you can't figure it out! ”
"Hahaha......." The chieftains of Houjin laughed loudly, and for a while threw the troubles of the defeat of Jinzhou City into the clouds.
Azig explained in Manggultai's ear, and the reckless man suddenly realized and laughed wildly.
Whether Huang Sheng is certain to die or not is undoubtedly not important for the time being, the important thing is that the generals of the Dajin Kingdom have expectations again, even if it is just to quench the thirst of Wangmei, at least the main generals have recovered their spirit when the army retreats.
The generals of Jiannu are really only afraid of Huang Sheng alone, as long as the 'killing god' is deprived of military power by the emperor of the Ming Kingdom, the strength of the Dajin Army is still there, and when the time comes, the Ming Kingdom will still return with a full load, and those losses under the city of Jinzhou will soon be made up.
As long as there is hope, people will have a head, and as long as the robbers know that they can continue to make a fortune by robbery, they will have the motivation, and the slave chieftain gave the Dajin Kingdom hope in a few words, which is really immediate.
It's a pity that the Ming army and horses only have the ability to cut off a part of the Houjin army and annihilate it, and they have no ability to pursue the main force of the enemy army that is on high alert and slowly retreating.
Huang Sheng gave an order to let the Jiannu on the outskirts of the fortification area retreat and not allow them to pursue, and let them go. He watched the Houjin army returning to the east from the high lookout post, followed by Zhang Youlu, Liu Dawan, Gu Shanhe and Liu Guozheng.
Looking at the Houjin army who retreated alternately, Huang Sheng smiled and said: "The red guy is going all the way, and this lord will not send it." ”
Liu Guozheng asked, "My lord, forget it?" ”
Huang Sheng smiled and asked, "Then what else?" Jiannu's strength is still there, and the official has no good plan to break the enemy in a short time! ”
Gu Shanhe, who had been holding a clairvoyant mirror to carefully inspect the Houjin army: "The cavalry is too important, this time Jiannu was defeated by our army in a positional battle, they will eat a trench and grow wise, and they will definitely not be stupid and our Huang family horses will be hard to shake in the mode of offensive and defensive warfare in the future." ”
Gu Shanhe has always led the army to arrange sentinels, and has used the cavalry movement to surround him many times to calculate the Jiannu sentry horses, and he has become more aware of the importance of mobility.
Liu Guozheng echoed: "Rao is like this, it is not difficult to defeat Jiannu, there are not enough cavalry to attack, and it is simply impossible to annihilate them on a large scale!" ”
Huang Sheng nodded and said: "Therefore, in order to completely solve the war in Liaodong, it is necessary to have a large number of cavalry to form the ability to give a devastating blow to the Houjin army, and to conquer the prairie, it is also necessary to have a cavalry team." ”
Zhang Youlu said: "I understand, in the future, our Huang family will greatly expand the hot weapon cavalry team, and with mobile strength, my Huang family's army can gallop across the grasslands of thousands of miles in the north." ”
Huang Shengdao: "It is not difficult to defeat Jiannu and recapture Liaodong, but if the strength of Jiannu's cavalry has not suffered heavy losses, our army will not be able to manage the land of Liaodong, and a large amount of military expenditure will be needed every year to maintain the garrison of Liaodong. ”
Zhang Youlu said: "That's true, our army must have strong logistical support in both attack and garrison, and Jiannu originally started from fishing and hunting, they ganged up to harass and fight, and found that they couldn't get cheap and escaped, and my garrison really couldn't go out of the city to pursue." ”
Of course, Huang Sheng will lose no time in telling a few generals about the situation between the enemy and us, he said:
"In the past, when the old slave started, he was constantly looting outside the city garrisoned by the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming army was forced to fight because of the military regulations at that time, which was in Nurha's arms.
The old slave chose a favorable opportunity to constantly encircle and annihilate the Ming army that fought out of the city with minimal losses, and the Houjin army would get a large number of war horses, armor, and weapons.
Therefore, Jiannu is getting stronger and stronger, and the Ming army is killed today by three hundred, and five hundred are killed every day, and the result in the long run is that there is no longer fighting spirit. ”
Liu Dawan, who had not spoken, said: "My lord, I think that when our army and Jiannu are decisive, we can try to block the Yalu River with the navy, which will successfully divide the forces of the Houjin army."
It will be much easier for our army to concentrate superior forces to form a large encirclement, and it will be much easier to fight a war of annihilation. The key to success is the training of a strong cavalry. ”
Gu Shanhe said: "It really needs to be arranged in this way, the formation of local superior forces is the only way for the Huang family to use troops, after destroying the Jiannu who was blocked in the east of the Yalu River, our army will cross the Yalu River west and advance into a battalion, and the Jiannu will not dry up and defend the city and wait for our army to organize artillery fire to attack the fortification, and then we have to go up the mountain and go to the sea." ”
Huang Sheng was very satisfied with seeing that several generals had their own opinions, and nodded: "However, as long as the Huang family is given time to develop, the day when Jiannu is destroyed will not be too long." ”
The five of them watched Jiannu go farther and farther, thinking about how to hold on to Liaodong and compete for the prairie in the future.
In fact, Huang Sheng didn't have any idea of beating the red gangster down in one fell swoop this time, and the strategic arrangement did not allow this.
If he recklessly gathered all the private troops of the Huang family in Liaodong, and then mobilized all the townsmen to blockade the Yalu River with the navy, and set up several beachheads along the river to cut off the return route of the Houjin army.
Naval artillery covers the firearms forces to seize Lushun, then capture Jinzhou, and then send troops to seize Gaizhou and advance eastward, using all the forces of the Huang family to completely seize the occupied territory of the Houjin State, Huang Sheng may succeed.
But the Houjin army is not stupid, and they will definitely not come to fight hard, they should also choose guerrilla and rushing.
Huang Sheng would definitely not be able to leave most of the cavalry of the Houjin Army behind, and Jiannu would lose his foothold and hide from the prairie.
After this battle, they were indeed broken and could not recover in a short period of time.
But the Huang family spent a lot of hard-won money and food, and what is the result of killing many loyal and brave subordinates in battle?
The First World War consumed too much of the Huang family's army base, and they had to leave a large number of soldiers to defend the Liaodong cities, and they would be dragged to death by Jiannu on the vast Liaodong battlefield.
After his strength was damaged, he no longer had the ability to turn things around, and in order not to be hidden by the emperor, he had to stay away from the court and slowly accumulate strength again.
Due to the exposure of strength, the Ming court will be more or less vigilant, and there will definitely be some friction if it is constantly hindered, and the salary will definitely shrink a lot.
Because it is necessary to continue to fill the bottomless pit of the Liaodong battlefield with money and grain, the development of the Huang family will encounter resistance, and the time required will be more protracted.
This is the same as doing business, the bigger the capital, the faster the development, the small capital must be slow, today's world situation does not treat me!
The Huang family now has the ability to overthrow the Houjin army, but it will not be overwhelming, and the losses will be very large, and this will be under the premise that the red gangsters are willing to come with the soldiers of the whole country to fight hard.
