The day after the capture of the city of Uiju in North Korea, the second Beile Amin of the Later Jin Kingdom summoned Azig and Liu Xingzuo and others to discuss the military situation. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Amin led the army to win the first victory, and he was very happy in his heart, and he was quite complacent about his previous decision.

He was especially pleased that in this siege battle, his blue banner had almost no losses, but he had gained a lot in the halfway ambush on the road to Iron Mountain in Uiju.

In this siege, the biggest loss was of course Liu Xingzuo's Fuzhou soldiers, who had a team of more than 5,000 people when they went out to fight, and now there are less than 4,000 people left.

Secondly, it was Azig's red flag, which brought a total of twenty Niulu, and lost nearly three Niulu in the First World War.

In particular, the Red Banner Guards who took the lead in attacking the city were the elite of the elite, but they suffered heavy losses under the close-range scattered bombardment of Mao Kexi's last few tiger squatting cannons.

There were only about 300 people in the number of guards who followed the Eastern Expedition, and after this time, almost all of them were beaten into human flesh sieves, and the few who did not die on the spot can only lie down and wait for death, and there is no way to treat them at all.

This is also one of the reasons why Azig became angry and slaughtered the soldiers and civilians in the city after entering the city.

Regarding the deaths and injuries of the soldiers under the Azig Red Banner, Amin didn't care at all, but gloated a little.

Amin's father, Shulhaqi, although he was the younger brother of the old Jurchen slave Nuer Hachi, died at the hands of Nuer Hachi, including Amin's adult brother, who was also ruthlessly killed.

When Amin grew up, he was convinced that he would not have survived had it not been for the fact that he was still young at the time, had been adopted by Nurhachi, and had a powerful uncle, Buzhantai, the leader of the Ula tribe, interceding.

Nuer Hachi not only killed his own brother, but also killed his own son, and Nuer Hachi's own son Mang Gurtai also killed his own mother with his own hands.

It can be seen from this that apart from the naked power struggle, there is no family affection at all between these leaders and nobles at the upper echelons of Jianyu.

Between father and son, between mother and son, and even between siblings of one mother, they are still so vicious to each other, let alone between cousins today.

And at this time, in the Jin Kingdom after the Jianyu, I am afraid that there is no cousin to say, after all, this is also the kinship tradition of the Chinese nation, and now the semi-civilized Jianyu may not have learned it in his hands.

Amin and Azig actually have some common language on the issue of being unhappy with Huang Taijizhi, but this does not mean that Amin will care if Azig's strength is damaged.

Therefore, the three of them did not discuss for long, and Amin decided on the next offensive strategy, that is, to continue to maintain his original strategy, continue to attack eastward, take Dingzhou, and then turn around and come back to besiege the isolated Tieshan City, attract the main force of Dongjiang Town to come to help, and then besiege the city to help.

Because they had just captured Yizhou City easily, Amin and Azig did not have any doubts about taking Dingzhou City.

Amin decided to send Azig and Liu Xingzuo to continue eastward to attack Dingzhou City, and then garrison Yizhou City himself.

Because of Azig's proposal, Amin's blue banner sent ten Niulu and 3,000 people at the same time to monitor the defenders of Tieshan under the city of Tieshan and prevent the defenders of Tieshan from going out of the city to rescue Dingzhou.

After the strategy of the attack was decided, Azig urged his own red flag, as well as the Fuzhou soldiers of Liu Xingzuo's brothers, to cut down trees around the city of Yizhou, and stepped up the production and assembly of large equipment needed for the siege, such as moat bridge vehicles, ladders, and siege vehicles, etc., which took two days.

Because the losses of Liu Xingzuo's troops were not replenished as they should be, and because of the deliberate delay of Liu Xingzuo's brothers, it was not until the morning of the fourth day after the capture of Yizhou City that Azig took his own Red Banner soldiers and Liu Xingzuo's complaining Fuzhou soldiers to set off for Dingzhou.

If Amin and Azig set off to attack Dingzhou City on the night or early the next morning after they took Yizhou City, then it would be difficult for Mao Wenlong, the marshal of Dongjiang Town, and Chu Xianxian, the eunuch of the inner court, to arrange many of their plans calmly.

But it's a pity that Amin and Azig despise the Ming army in Dongjiang Town, which is engraved in their bones, plus Amin also fought Dingzhou City once, knowing that these North Korean cities are different from the real Ming cities, not only the city is short and shallow, but also the city is as small as it is, and the city is full of soldiers and can't put many soldiers, so I didn't take it too seriously at all, just waiting for the army to arrive, and the good news was spread frequently. However, such a light enemy is extremely undeserved.

Different from history, today's Emperor Chongzhen not only fully trusts Liu Xingzuo's righteous heart, but also replenishes Dongjiang Town with two military salaries, ordnance, grain and grass materials, and the most important thing is that when the war is about to happen, he sent the great eunuch Chu Charter, and taught Chu Charter a lot of opportunities.

And all this will eventually change the original face of this battle in history.

Historically, Mao Wenlong personally led 8,000 cavalry, rushed to the bank of the Yalu River, and confronted Jianlu across the river, the battle had just begun, Liu Xingzuo, who was ordered to launch the first wave of offensives, defected before the battle, and the result was that Jianlu was shocked, Mao Wenlong took the opportunity to rush into battle, and Jianlu was defeated.

However, in addition to Liu Xingzuo's surrender, Mao Wenlong's result in charging into battle was only to pursue all the way, even beheading and taking prisoners, and a total of more than 2,000 people were lost to Jianyu.

In fact, it did not cause any substantial losses to Jianzuo, and wasted the God-given opportunity to reunite with Liu Xingzuo and recreate the captivity. It was only after Liu Xingzuo took refuge that he rebelled against his two younger brothers in Fuzhou and Gaizhou, which made this Dongjiang victory have a little tangible achievement.

Of course, this time, because of the prior communication between Mao Wenlong and Liu Xingzuo, the results achieved will certainly not be just about 2,000 people.

On the night of Mao Kexi's brother fleeing into Dingzhou City, Mao Chenglu, the Dingzhou guard, sent his henchmen to Phi Island to report the news.

After Mao Wenlong, Chu Xianzhang and others received the information from Dingzhou, they quickly sent back envoys to Dingzhou and informed Mao Chenglu of the plan agreed with Liu Xingzuo's brothers.

When he saw the envoy from Phi Dao the next morning, Mao Chenglu was also overjoyed when he learned that Liu Xingzuo had the intention of rectifying, and soon had a defensive plan for Dingzhou City.

It was not until two days later that the ranger sentry sent out sent back the news that the Jianyu army with red flags and the Fuzhou soldiers had left Yizhou City and were coming to Dingzhou City.

Mao Kexi's brother Mao Kejin was shocked when he heard this, and asked Mao Chenglu to send someone to Phi Island as soon as possible to report the news, and asked Mao Dashuai to send troops to help.

Mao Chenglu of course agreed to their request, but the envoy did not rush to the direction of Phi Dao. Because Mao Wenlong at this time is no longer in Phi Island.

Just after Mao Wenlong received the exact news of the fall of Yizhou from Mao Chenglu, the defender of Dingzhou, he quickly recruited 8,000 elite soldiers from all parts of Dongjiang Town, half of each of the Ma Bu army, and boarded the fleet led by Zhang Cunren and Shen Shikui on the night of the second day of the fall of Yizhou.

In the second half of the night, the Phi Dao army landed on land one after another on the coast near Anju. Therefore, today's Mao Wenlong and Mao Dashuai are in Anzhou City, forty miles east of Dingzhou City.

Mao Wenlong originally thought that the Jianguo army would attack Dingzhou City on the second day after capturing Yizhou City, and on the third day at the latest, and he also arranged the main force of Dongjiang Town to land on the coast in the south of Anzhou overnight, preparing to take Jianyu by surprise according to the agreement with Liu Xingzuo.

As a result, they waited left and right, but did not wait for the news of Jianyu's large-scale attack on Dingzhou.

Anzhou guards Mao Youxing and Mao Zhongyu did not know why, and also said: "Dashuai, the city of Anzhou is small, and it is not a place for the army to stay for a long time. If you wait for Jianlu to attack, why don't you lie in ambush outside Dingzhou City, and wait for Jianyu to attack Dingzhou on the way, and kill him by surprise, wouldn't it be better to sit and wait here? ”

Fortunately, Qu Chengen and Yuan Shu, who participated in the overall planning and always followed Mao Wenlong, urged them to continue to wait, and would rather lose Dingzhou City in vain than miss this once-in-a-lifetime God-given opportunity.

After listening to the repeated advice of the two, Mao Wenlong strengthened his mind and did not change his decision easily.

Sure enough, Mao Wenlong led the main force of Dongjiang Town, and after waiting for a day and a night in Anzhou City, he finally received Mao Chenglu's information at noon on the fourth day of the fall of Yizhou City, and Jianyu was dispatched, and it was rushing to Dingzhou City.

At this moment, Mao Wenlong and Qu Chengen really fell to the ground as a stone, and they were completely relieved.

When it was nightfall, Mao Wenlong, who finally slept peacefully for two hours, was once again woken up by Mao Youxing, Mao Zhongyu and other subordinates, saying that Mao Chenglu sent someone to report that Dingzhou City had been lost, and Mao Chenglu had escaped from the south gate with more than 2,000 people outside Dingzhou City, and the Jianyu army had not pursued it for a long time. Mao Chenglu's department is currently hiding in a mountain forest between Dingzhou and Anzhou, waiting for Mao Dashuai's next order.
