Jiannu, who was already extremely poor, really belonged to the poor soldiers to redeem the army, and even the children of the Eight Banners were embarrassed and burdened, and the days of those Goryeo and Han Aha can be imagined.

The red gangster is ruthless, this time it must be a complete victory, the strategic purpose is to seize Jinzhou and all the nearby satellite cities, and the target of the encirclement and reinforcement is the Hong soldiers trained by Hong Chengchou.

After two years of stopping, the Red Gang crossed the gap dug by Yuan Chonghuan and came to Jinzhou outside the city, mobilizing 80,000 soldiers and horses, and the Mongolian tribes also responded positively to gather 50,000 light cavalry in Jinzhou.

The last time the Mongols who suffered a big loss in the Daming Pass were willing to follow the Manchu Qing Dynasty as a last resort, the disaster in the north was serious, and they could no longer get the grain sold from the Daming Dynasty, and a small amount of grain out of the customs was sky-high.

Now the Manchu Qing Dynasty squeezed Aha at the expense of starving the old and weak, and under the condition of satisfying the food of the soldiers of the Eight Banners, he was able to save more than 100,000 stone of grain a year, and with the food supply army, the former Tartars came to help the war, and there was a lot less resistance.

It's a pity that there are still a lot fewer Mongolian tribes willing to serve, and there is a lot of gap between the quality and number of these 50,000 horses who participated in the siege of Jinzhou last time.

He Kegang, the defender of Jinzhou, was not alarmed for a long time, and he was always ready to deal with the attack of the Qing army.

After several years of accumulation, the soldiers in Jinzhou City are full of food, and the maintenance and reinforcement of the city are carried out every year.

Because there are 10,000 defenders in Jinzhou, and there are 5,000 trained villagers, they do not have the strength to go out of the city to fight, and there is no ambiguity in defending the city.

However, there is a limit to defending the city, even if the soldiers are well fed, and the low morale to a certain extent in the case of delaying and waiting for rescue will directly affect the combat effectiveness.

Fortunately, there are some "God of War" generals headed by Tang Daoheng who are still serving in Liaodong, and the number of artillery and air force is also in the hundreds, and Jinzhou's defense is the link that Huang Sheng attaches the most importance to.

With 60 six-pounder field guns that could flexibly shift positions, the Qing army would encounter unprecedented casualties when attacking the city.

Under the circumstance that the report was confirmed, He Kegang and Ji Yong, the eunuch of the supervising army, jointly issued a 600-li expedited to the military department for the Qing army's large-scale invasion of Jinzhou, and a few days later, Ning Yuancheng sent a 600-li expedited that Jinzhou was surrounded by more than 100,000 Qing troops.

At this time, Chongzhen's mentality was good, because although there were more than one rogue in the mainland, it seemed that there was no climate, and he decided to do his best to give the Qing army a fatal blow.

The emperor ordered to summon the thistle and Liao Governor Hong Chengchou who sat in Shanhaiguan to control all walks of life in Liaodong, and the Ming soldiers who were trained in Liaodong were about to fight under the city of Jinzhou.

The lineup is quite impressive, with Wang Pu, Yang Guozhu, Tang Tong, Bai Guangen, Ma Shilong, Ma Ke, Wang Tingchen, Ma Shihu Eight Road total soldiers counting more than 130,000 foot cavalry, as well as 5,000 Mongolian cavalry under the command of Datai Jiqing Getai, and the Ming army stationed in Ningyuan also has more than 7,000 foot horses.

Hong Chengchou was inspired by the feat of the Southern King to defend the territory and open up the territory, and he also wanted to establish immortal feats in Liaodong.

The imperial court's army of more than 100,000 troops had been trained in western Liaoning for a small year, and their spirit and spirit were greatly improved, and their ability to coordinate operations was greatly improved.

Hong Chengchou thought that it should not be a problem to have such strength to defend the territory and inflict heavy losses on the invading enemy, and the Qing army, which did not have an absolute advantage in numbers, did not eat the good teeth of this group of men and horses anyway, and he led the men and horses to kill Liaodong.

He was not a reckless person, he did not dare to advance, and led a large army to be stationed in Ningyuan to spy on the situation in Jinzhou.

Hong Chengchou knew that the strength of the two sides had no advantage over his own, although the number of people was the same, the combat effectiveness was probably too bad.

Therefore, Yang Guozhu, Wang Tingchen, Ma Shihu and other general officers were arranged to adopt the strategy of gradual encroachment step by step, preparing to find an opportunity to give a decisive blow when the Qing army retreated in the face of difficulties.

Drawing lessons from the past storms on Ningyuan and Jinzhou, the Red Gangsters drew up a battle plan for encircling and besieging them for a long time, forcing them to surrender, or starving to death the entire city's soldiers and civilians.

He ordered the prince of Heshuo Zheng, Jierharang, Dolgon, who was demoted to Dorobelle for meritorious service, and the king of Luowuyingjun, Azige, Bel Mang Gurtai and others to lead the troops to build Yizhou City and garrison Tuntian, with the purpose of making Ningyuan and Jinzhou unable to cultivate and unable to replenish military rations within a radius of dozens of miles.

The Red Gangsters sent troops to capture the outlying strongholds of Jinzhou City one by one, and the steps of such encroachment were very different from those of Hong Chengchou.

As soon as the Qing army came up, it took a foothold in Yizhou, which was less than 100 miles northeast of Jinzhou, and in the blink of an eye, they turned the ripe fields reclaimed by the Ming army into theirs, and put on a posture of long-term siege.

Of course, He Kegang knew that the outlying strongholds were difficult to support, so in order to avoid being broken by the enemy, he took the initiative to withdraw all the troops and materials stationed in the surrounding tunpu before the Qing army dispatched, and still concentrated all his forces to defend Jinzhou to contain the Qing army.

After the Qing army completed the targeted elimination almost bloodlessly, they came to camp on all sides outside the city of Jinzhou and dig trenches to cut off their foreign aid.

The Tuntian outside Jinzhou City has changed owners, and the Red Gangsters are quite satisfied, so it can be seen that Jinzhou City is bound to sit on empty mountains, and the Qing army will more or less get some harvest to supplement military rations.

After a long-term siege, how many catties of nails can be hit even if the Jinzhou guard is covered in iron?

He Kegang took the initiative to guerrilla the Qing army outside the city before the Qing army completed its deployment, Jinzhou is a big city after all, even if more than 100,000 people and horses are besieged on all sides, it is difficult to cover everything before the construction of the fortifications is completed.

Tang Daoheng took advantage of the clairvoyant mirror to observe carefully, and the hot air balloon was lifted into the air to communicate with the flag and light code.

The Ming army attacked flexibly, they had no regularity, and most of the time they chose to fight at night.

The soldiers quietly touched the camp of Jiannu and threw out the "Flying Earthquake Thunder", and when the enemy was in confusion, the smoothbore gun fired a three-stage salvo, and the Ming army who threw the "Flying Earthquake Thunder" and emptied the lead bullet in the chamber of the gun immediately ran away.

It's good that Jiannu doesn't chase it, and it is right to send troops to chase after him, because there are Ming cavalry with superior forces on the road to ambush, and Jiannu, who appeared on the preset battlefield of the Ming army in the dark night, of course can't get a bargain.

As soon as the Qing army came up, it encountered a hard bone, and the red gangsters thought that they should defeat the Ming army's courage to fight as soon as possible, and if this continued, the Ming army would no longer be afraid of the Eight Banners warriors.

He knew that the courage of the Ming army to dare to fight came from the power of Huang Sheng's example, and he was ruthless, this time he could no longer let Hong Chengchou train a strong army to make it more difficult for the Ming army to gnaw, and he must annihilate Hong Chengchou to capture Jinzhou before he could return to the division.

The Ming army who came to the rescue did not be a visitor, Hong Chengchou, who was sitting in Ningyuan, sent men and horses to engage the Qing army in a few battles, and it was inconsequential to win or lose each other, and the Ming army did not suffer a big loss, but the siege of Jinzhou may be far away.

Hong Chengchou is full of confidence, he thinks that you will continue to fight back and forth, and it won't be long before Jiannu should take the lead in eating it, after all, the population of the Manchu Qing Dynasty is too small, so many young and strong people come to fight, what should I do with the production at home?
