Chapter 363: Tower Hill Meeting

This was the end of the Battle of Tashan Fort, which ended with the recapture of Tashan Fort by the Ming army.

In this battle, the Ming army that swept the periphery basically suffered little losses, and the heaviest losses were Sun Yueling's personal troops and Sun Zushou's troops who attacked the south gate, and the casualties were about 300 people.

The degree of loss of the elite soldiers of the Zhenglan Banner should be almost the same as that of the Ming army, and this battle can be described as equal, with casualties.

But in general, the Ming army still has the upper hand, the Houjin people are scarce, one less one dies, and most of the dead are elite soldiers, so this battle still greatly boosts the morale of the Ming army, and the fortress occupied by the Houjin will be recaptured.

Not only that, but this battle also captured thousands of prisoners, most of whom were auxiliaries and slaves used by the Houjin to transport grain, which was not a big blow to the enemy - the main purpose of the Houjin to capture Tashan Fort was to transport the grain here, and now the plan has failed, the auxiliaries have been captured, and the food has not been obtained, which can be described as a failure.

Sun Yueling was directing the army to clean up the battlefield and place the wounded, but Yan Nantian came over and said to him: "My lord, General Zu is injured, and his injuries are relatively serious, I am afraid that I will not be able to go out with the army in the future......

When Sun Yueling heard this, he hurriedly said, "Let's go, take me to have a look." ”

Yan Nantian took him to a barracks, and after entering the door, he saw Sun Zushou taking off his armor and lying on the couch in his inner clothes, his face was pale, and there were still traces of blood on his clothes.

Sun Yueling walked over quickly, bowed his head and asked, "How is the general's injury?" ”

Sun Zushou was about to get up, but was held down by Sun Yueling, and said, "Lord Meng asked, I am hurt a little bit...... What's the point, in a few days...... It's going to be fine. ”

Sun Yueling said: "The general is really a heroic person, and this scripture must tell the general in detail about the bloody battle in Liaodong and the deeds of heroically killing the enemy, and ask for credit for the general." ”

Sun Zushou said: "Thank you for your love, the last general...... The last general is ashamed. ”

From the mouth of the soldier who was responsible for wrapping Sun Zushou's wounds beside him, Sun Yueling knew that Sun Zushou's injuries were more serious, and the enemy had cut a long wound in his waist and abdomen with a knife, which was several inches deep.

The bad thing is that they were in a hurry on this expedition, and there were no well-trained military doctors with them at all, and if Sun Zushou's injuries were not further treated, I am afraid that his injuries would worsen.

Sun Yueling frowned, and said to Sun Zushou: "General Sun, it's better to do this, I'll let you go back to Ningyuan first, and wait for the general to heal......

Before he finished speaking, Sun Zushou hurriedly said, "My lord...... Will the end be fine...... The last general is willing to follow the adult and continue the battle. ”

Sun Yueling shook his head and said with a serious face: "The general doesn't need to argue, how can this scripture not know your heart, it's just that the general's injury is more important now, as long as the general's injury recovers, I'm afraid that I won't have a chance to contribute to the Ming Dynasty?" ”

When Sun Zushou heard him say this, he sighed and said, "Everything is up to the adults. ”

Sun Yueling nodded and said, "It's just that the general has thousands of soldiers under his command, but he has to stay and continue to fight the enemy, I don't know what the general wants?" ”

He is the strategy of Liaodong, originally this kind of thing can not listen to his opinions, it stands to reason that whether it is to aid the Liaoke army or the army and horses in this town, he can be mobilized with full power, and he can directly give Sun Zushou an order, but Sun Yueling does not want to give people the impression of authoritarian and arrogant, so he mentioned it to him euphemistically.

Unexpectedly, Sun Zushou nodded and said: "Yes, willingly, as long as the adults have orders, my Jizhen soldiers dare to disobey the order." After the last general returned to Ningyuan, he would also tell Lord Yuan in detail about the fact that the Lord had killed the Tartars and recaptured the fortress, so that he could send troops to help as soon as possible. ”

Sun Yueling smiled slightly when he heard this, if Yuan Chonghuan could send troops to help, it would not be the so-called "immobile like a mountain", but he didn't say anything, and said: "Very good, there is General Lao, the general is relieved to recuperate, and wait for good news." ”

After pacifying Sun Zushou, Sun Yueling immediately convened a military meeting to discuss the next march action.

In the barracks, after some discussion, the generals all thought that the blue flag and the red flag were frustrated in Tashan, and the morale of Houjin would be greatly depressed, and it was the time when the Ming army arrived at the city of Jinzhou in one go. And the Jinzhou defenders led by Zhao Shujiao and Zhu Mei will definitely boost their morale when they see Ning Yuanming's army coming to help, and the two sides should cooperate with each other, and maybe they can relieve the siege of Jinzhou.

Zhang Zhiqi sneered at the generals who were talking endlessly, and said: "Just because we have less than 4,000 men to relieve the siege of Jinzhou, the rank is too unworthy of the Houjin Eight Banners?" Or are you all Wu Qi and Xiang Yu, and you have the courage to be inappropriate? ”

These words are too faceless, those guerrillas and garrisons were greatly changed by what he said, and they all looked at him angrily, but they didn't dare to attack, after all, Zhang Zhiqi was the governor of Yipin, and his rank alone was many levels higher than them.

Sun Yueling smiled faintly and said, "If you have any different opinions, but it doesn't hurt to say it, don't be taboo about anything." ”

Hearing him say this, Deng Ju, the garrison of Jizhen soldiers, stood up and said to him: "My lord, since we have taken Tashan, then we can take advantage of the situation to continue to advance north, Jinzhou Zhao General Soldier must have been looking forward to the reinforcements for a long time, our army will arrive in Jinzhou one day earlier, and Jinzhou will get rid of the danger of breaking the city one day sooner!" ”

"Hahaha......" Zhang Zhiqi laughed loudly when he heard this, and sneered, "Deng Shoubei, do you think that the Tartar army is all paper-paste, and we will be able to break the siege if we go to Jinzhou?" According to me, it's good that we don't go, maybe Zhao Shujiao can stay for one more day until the Tartars retreat; If we go, if Zhao Shujiao can't help but go out of the city to fight, then it is really irretrievable, and we must be defeated......"

Deng Ju snorted, glared at Zhang Zhiqi angrily and said, "Why should Zhang Dudu grow the ambition of others and destroy his own prestige? With Lord Jinglu sitting here, are you still afraid that the whole army will not dare to serve your life? How did you get this tower hill? How did the blue flag and the red flag retreat? Didn't Fang Dudu see it, or did he not have confidence in Lord Sun? ”

This series of rhetorical questions made Zhang Zhiqi a little angry, and he was about to ridicule him, but Sun Yueling stopped him with a wave of his hand, and said to Deng Ju and the others: "You mean, our army has reached the city of Jinzhou?" ”

The generals all nodded.

Sun Yueling said again: "Does anyone still have different opinions? ”

"There will be different opinions." As soon as the words ended, someone spoke.

Sun Yueling saw that it was Wu Wenyao, a subordinate of Man Gui, and asked him, "General, it's okay to say it." ”

Wu Wenyao walked to the middle and looked around at the crowd: "I think that at this moment, our army cannot be in a hurry. The reason why the Tartars were defeated was nothing more than because of the light enemy, and they did not send a large number of elites to Tashan, but only sent less than 5,000 soldiers to protect the food, and the rest were mostly auxiliary soldiers who had no combat ability. If we use our 4,000 troops to relieve the siege of Jinzhou, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. This is one of them.

Second, as Zhang Dudu said, if our army does not go to Jinzhou, it is fine, maybe Zhao Dashuai can hold on for some more time, if our army goes to Jinzhou, and can not exchange news with the besieged Zhao Dashuai, it will create a false impression for him, thinking that Ningyuan Ming army is all dispatched to relieve the siege of Jinzhou. If Zhao Dashuai goes out of the city and fights with the Tartars under unknown circumstances, he will be burdened by us.

Thirdly, before our army set out on the expedition, our marshal had set the strategy of 'surprise attack and harassment of the enemy', which is also the practice that Lord Jinglu has always advocated. ”

"Well said!" Sun Yueling praised loudly, "This word won my heart! "Wu Wenyao is worthy of being a general trained by Man Gui, and he is indeed wise and brave, not a foolish person, so he thought of going with him.

Sun Yueling looked around at the generals and said word by word: "If our army wins a small victory, the enemy army will inevitably be shaken, and Tashan is the throat of Ningyuan and Jinzhou, and Huang Taiji cannot ignore it, and will inevitably send a large army to fight again." Therefore, our army must not fight hard with it, but must avoid the real and attack the weak, and deal with it flexibly. ”

Speaking of this, he said in an aggravated tone, "Therefore, Ben Jingluo decided to evacuate Tashan and no longer compete with Houjin head-on. ”

Deng Ju asked: "Dare to ask your lordship, where is our army withdrawing?" ”

Sun Yueling walked to the map in front of the table, pointed his finger above Shahe Fort, and said, "This is the temporary refuge of our army. ”

"Hongluo Mountain!" The generals exclaimed, unexpectedly that the place chosen by Sun Yueling was not other fortresses, but the boundary between Mongolia and Mongolia in this western Liaoning corridor. However, Hongluo Mountain is more than ten miles in circumference, with high mountains and dense forests, and extensive vegetation, so if the army hides in it, it is not easy for the enemy to find out.

"Yes, it's Hongluo Mountain." Sun Yueling looked resolute, raised his voice and said: "From this moment on, our army's marching strategy is only sixteen words, that is, 'the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy is stationed and I spare, the enemy is tired and I fight, and the enemy retreats and I chase'. ”

After setting specific goals, Sun Yueling once again made a specific division of the army structure, Wu Wenyao's nearly 1,000 cavalry was directly assigned to Zhang Zhiqi's command, Sun Zushou's 2,000 foot soldiers were commanded by Yan Nantian, and the personal army was handed over to Fang Yichen.

Zhang Zhiqi was originally the governor of Congyipin, and Wu Yaowen and other Guan Ningjun naturally had no objections; The pro-soldier team is composed of people from the Fenghua Society, and Fang Yichen's command is just right; However, the Jizhen soldiers were commanded by Yan Nantian, a person who was not from the army, and there was a trace of dissatisfaction up and down, but with Sun Yueling pressing, no one dared to show it.

In this regard, Sun Yueling took timely measures and temporarily promoted Yan Nantian to the garrison of the army, which was equal to Deng Ju's position, and all procedures would be completed after the war.

He is the Liaodong Economic Strategy, Mo said that the promotion of a small garrison, even the appointment of a party commander also has this right, as long as there is no objection from above, this matter is a sure thing after he says it, and no one dares to say a word.

After the arrangement was completed, someone asked about the placement of the prisoners, Sun Yueling frowned, so many prisoners is indeed a big problem, let them follow the army, obviously it is not suitable at this time; But if they abandon them, there is no guarantee that they will not go back to Houjin.

Sun Yueling thought for a moment and said, "In this way, send someone to escort them back to Ningyuan and hand them over to Lord Yuan for placement." ”
