Chapter 716: Huang Taiji's Someone Proposed and True Purpose [Ask for a monthly pass!] 】
0716。
Today's second update is delivered! , the rebels under the command of Shen Qiyuan and Zheng Taijie both exceeded 10,000 people. After occupying the northern part of the Korean Kingdom, the two men "used force" to force many young men to join the rebels, further increasing the number of rebels. If they did attack, the troops would never be so scarce. Therefore, the "component of two-person acting" is quite large.
What the Tartars have to do now seriously is to guard against the Korean rebels and take action against the Tartars. It's not impossible. If you believe that the loyalty of the North Koreans can be trusted, "the sun is coming out of the west." What's more, "Zhang Zhun here, there is another order, that is, the head of one Tartar will atone for his sins, and the head of two Tartars will make meritorious service." This order "is equally valid against the Korean rebels."
"You two" I'll remember you! Dundori said angrily.
He is not an idiot, so he can naturally see that the North Korean rebels are prevaricating themselves. However, he also had no choice. If at this juncture, "he and the North Korean rebels completely turned their faces", the Tiger Ben Army would definitely take the opportunity to cover up. The troops he has at hand are "only a little bit, and they will definitely not be able to stop the North Korean rebels and the Tiger Ben army from attacking from both sides." What he has to do now is to first keep the territory of Tieshan, and then wait for reinforcements from Shenyang.
The Tartars did not dare to come, and the Koreans did not dare to come, which is definitely good for the Tiger Army. Seizing this gap, all the personnel of the Tiger Army "threw themselves into the intense construction of the fortress." Most of the parts needed for this fortress were made of cement steel bars in advance, and now they are hoisted down with gantry cranes and pulley sets, overlapping each other.
After three days of working day and night, the prototype of the first bastion was basically formed. The walls are already more than five meters high. By this time, "even if the Tartar reinforcements arrived, with a fortress as a cover, the Tiger Ben army could resist for a long time."
In fact, the reinforcements of the Tartars never appeared. From the occupation of Phi Island by the Tiger Ben Army to the landing of the Tiger Ben Army at the port of Iron Mountain to build a fortress, a full ten days have passed, and the Tartar reinforcements have still not appeared. According to Zhang Zhun's estimate, the current Tatar slave chieftains may still be hesitant.
After Huang Taiji left Shenyang, he who presided over Shenyang "is the Great Belle Daishan." Dai Shan is actually good at leading troops to fight, he also led the army to fight in person back then, and he has made a lot of military exploits. It was only later that Dajin needed someone to do internal affairs," and he took over this piece. After Huang Taiji left Shenyang, he handled all the military and political affairs alone.
However, Dai Shan's hands actually don't have many troops. Huang Taiji took the army of the Dajin Kingdom away more than Cheng this time. All the elites are completely in the hands of Huang Taiji. The rest of the army "is basically second-rate troops of various flags." These second-rate troops were stationed partly in Shenyang, partly in Deliyingseong, and partly in northern Korea.
Shenyang's army, Dai Shan did not dare to move easily. This is the base camp of the Dajin Kingdom, "All the wealth of the Dajin Kingdom, as well as all the families of the high-level people, are here." In case the Han people rise up and make trouble, "there is not enough army to suppress it", then there will be a big problem. Moreover, "Dai Shan has always been worried" that the Tiger Ben Army will take advantage of the opportunity of Huang Taiji's southern strategy to take the opportunity to sneak attack Shenyang. Therefore, he was "very concerned about the safety of Shenyang, and the troops stationed in Shenyang could not move even if they were killed."
The army that won the city was also not easily mobilized by Dai Shan. In case the army of Deli Yingcheng is transferred, and the Tiger Ben army goes ashore in Jinzhouwei and other places, it will pose a more serious threat to Shenyang. It is very important to prevent the Tiger Ben army from taking advantage of the opportunity of Huang Taiji's southern strategy to raid Shenyang and win the city. Because "the Dajin Army is stationed in Deli Win City", it can monitor the surrounding three areas of Jinzhouwei, Fuzhou Wei and Gaizhouwei.
No matter where the Tiger Army landed, "they would be attacked head-on by the Dajin Army", and they would never be given the opportunity to build a fortress on the shore. Iron Mountain, because the distance is too far, the Dajin army of Win the city "is unable to carry out rapid maneuvering on it, and this is the only flaw." However, for Shenyang, the Iron Mountain is not the deadliest.
The location of Tieshan is of course important, but once it is cut off by the Tiger Army, Dajinguo's ability to control North Korea will be greatly reduced, "or even lose North Korea."
But relatively speaking, North Korea is not as important as Shenyang. Therefore, on the one hand, Dai Shan ordered to strengthen the precautions of various localities to "prevent the Tiger Ben Army from moving the tiger from leaving the mountain" to attack the east and west, and on the other hand, he sent someone to immediately inform Huang Taiji, "Please ask Huang Taiji to decide, whether it is necessary to transfer troops back."
The Tigers' guard posts are on guard in the vicinity to prevent any possible attack by the Tartars. However, "day by day" the Tartar did not appear. Not only did the Tartar reinforcements not appear, but even the Tartars who were originally stationed in Iron Mountain City did not seem to react. Dundori has been cowering in Iron Mountain City, and he doesn't dare to come out easily.
"My lord, Huang Taiji has an envoy to see it." Suddenly, Zhang Zhun received a report from his subordinates, saying that Huang Taiji had another envoy to see it. He couldn't help but be suspicious. Why did Huang Taiji send people again? What the hell is this guy trying to do? Is there something that needs to be exchanged?
During this time, Huang Taiji took the Tartars to burn, kill and loot in Beizhili, doing all kinds of evil, but he did not forget to send envoys to the Tiger Army. While he was wildly wielding the butcher's knife, he did not forget to take other ways to obtain more benefits. The Tiger Benjun and the Tartars have become mortal enemies, and Huang Taiji actually has the heart to send a messenger to come, "What a hard-hearted guy." If it is reversed, "Zhang Zhun will definitely not be able to do it."
"Let him in!" ”
Zhang Zhun said coldly.
Soon, the envoy of Huang Taiji was brought up. The envoy of Huang Taiji is still Yalai who Zhang Zhun saw last time. After the lesson of the last time, the retinue brought by Yalai this time no longer has any Han Chinese, all of them are Manchurians.
"Yarai, what's the matter?" , Zhang Zhun said coldly.
Yalai said in a proper manner: "Lord Governor, I am on the orders of the Lord of Daejin Kingdom on a very important matter" and discussed with Lord Governor, "I hope that Lord Governor will put the overall situation first", put aside personal grievances, and "work together*......"
Zhang Zhun said coldly: "What's the matter? You said! Yalai said slowly: "The lord of the Dajin Kingdom is willing to join forces with the Governor to capture the capital master * ......"
Wang Shide, who was next to him, was slightly shocked in his heart, and stared at this guy named Yalai in surprise.
The Dajin Army and the Tiger Ben Army joined forces to attack the Jingshi? Huang Taiji can figure it out!
Zhang Zhun rolled his eyes and said coldly, "Oh? Such a tempting proposal Yalai said in an orderly manner, "Our Great Khan said, "As long as our two armies join forces, it is easy to take the Beijing Division." After taking the Jingshi, the property of the Jingshi was "only half of our army", and the rest of the property "as well as all the children, jade silks, etc." were all owned by the Governor. After conquering the Beijing Division, "our army will withdraw beyond the Great Wall, and vow never to cross the Great Wall to the south again." When the time comes, "the whole northern kingdom will be the territory of the Governor.*......"
Wang Shide swallowed his saliva quietly.
Fuck "Tartar's offer" looks so fucking tempting! If nothing else is left aside, this is indeed the quickest way to expand your territory. Jingshi is the hub of the Ming Kingdom in the northern country, "As long as the Jingshi is conquered, the northern part of the Ming Kingdom will die immediately." The Tiger Army can indeed take the opportunity to expand its territory and easily control the entire northern country. It will be much easier to conquer the Jingshi and kill Chongzhen "The entire Ming Kingdom will fall into chaos, and the Tiger Ben Army will unify the whole country".
The problem is that doing so is "even more Shi Jingjiao than Shi Jingjing." The crime of colluding with Jianyu to conquer the Jingshi "is probably a crime that will be scolded in 10,000 years." Zhang Zhun himself "will probably be nailed to the pillar of shame in history forever." Zhang Zhun hated the traitor the most. If he did, he would be the biggest traitor in the history of the Ming Kingdom.
Besides, it would be strange if Huang Taiji had such a good intention. Only half of the belongings? That's a dream! The greed and viciousness of the Tartars "That's what a three-year-old child knows." After conquering the Jingshi, "If Huang Taiji doesn't turn his face immediately, then he won't be called Huang Taiji." Wang Shide could almost conclude in an instant, "This is definitely a trap, a trap specifically for the Tiger Army."
As for what vows never to cross the Great Wall and go south, "it's all a kid's thing", and whoever believes it is definitely a fool among fools. What do Tartars have in Liaodong? Nothing is needed for anything. Instead of looting, "Where else can they get more supplies?" From the Mongolian steppe? From where the North Koreans? Don't even think about it.
On the contrary, once Chongzhen and the others were killed, the Ming Kingdom was leaderless and fell into a state of division, and it was easier for the Tartars to come in and burn and loot. Even if the Tiger Ben Army controls the northern country, there are still Liukou in Shaanxi" and a large area of land south of the Yangtze River needs to be mobilized. What do Tartars wish for the most? Of course, the Ming Kingdom is scattered. Zhang Zhunke must not be fooled.
Zhang Zhun said lazily: "Oh? Is there such a good thing? Yalai said with certainty: "As long as Lord Du Du joins forces with us" our army will contain all the Ming troops in the north, and then cover the Huben army to attack the Beijing division. I believe that with the strength of the Tiger Ben Army, it shouldn't be a problem to concentrate on attacking the Beijing Division? The so-called three battalions of the Ming State in Beijing were actually empty shelves, and the real combat effectiveness was at most 20,000 or 30,000 people. Zhang Zhun said quietly: "Why is Huang Taiji so confident that he thinks that I will definitely agree to your proposal*......"
Yalai said meaningfully: "Doesn't Lord Du want to join the capital and become the Ninety-Five Supreme*......"
Zhang Zhun said unabashedly: "Yes." *……”
Yalai showed a rare sinister smile, and said seductively: "In that case, why don't we cooperate*......"
Zhang Zhun shook his head and said, "I won't cooperate with a group of robbers in order to become the master of the Jingshi*......"
Yalai said disapprerovingly: "We are robbers," and Your Excellency is just a rogue. Everyone is half a catty, and no one is noble. ,”
Zhang Zhun rolled his eyes again and said coldly: "How do you say it......"
Yalai suddenly threw out a piece of music and handed it to Zhang Zhun, and said lightly, "This is what we captured from the battlefield, Lord Governor, please see it......."
Zhang Zhun said casually: "Wang Shide, read." Wang Shide took over the recital" and read it out loud.
The chapter was written by Gao Qiqian to Chongzhen, and then Chongzhen replied. In the chapter, Chongzhen clearly asked Gao Qiqian to "pay attention to preserving strength, so that Nangu can eliminate Zhang Zhun." In the reply, "Chongzhen did call Zhang Zhun a thief." The emperor of the Ming Kingdom also clearly pointed out that "the Tartar looks ferocious, but in fact it is still a disease of mustard, Zhang Zhun and Li Zicheng and others are the real henchmen of the Ming Kingdom."
Yalai took the opportunity to say coldly: "It seems that in the mind of the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom, Your Excellency's weight is heavier than that of our Dajin Kingdom!" If Gao Qiqian hadn't tried to preserve his strength, the passive defense "our army can't attack quickly" will defeat him. Hasn't the Governor come to his senses yet? We, the Dajin Kingdom, are outsiders after all, and "we will not control this land." But Lord Governor is different, "Lord Governor, you have all the strength and ability" to become the new master of this land. As long as we work together, we can achieve our goals faster. Zhang Zhun said disapprerovingly: "So what......"
Yalai said bluntly: "The Emperor of the Ming Kingdom is the enemy of both of us, why can't we cooperate?" Killing him "is good for all of us!" “”
Zhang Zhun's face suddenly changed, and he said angrily: "Yalai! You broke into our Ming Kingdom to "kill people and set fires, ** captivity" and still want me to cooperate with you? I work with anyone" will not work with a bunch of robbers! This is an internal affair of our Ming people! When will it be your turn to point fingers? He suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at Yalai" and said coldly, "Your Dajin Kingdom is also a part of the Ming Kingdom!" Don't think that you now have a little bit of force, and you can do whatever you want! You will have to pay a terrible price for your deeds! I hereby advise you to "put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground!" If you are obsessed, you will only hide forever in the abyss......"
Yalai said disdainfully, "Thank you, Lord Dudu, for your teachings!" What is our Dajin Kingdom doing, "we know it in our hearts", we don't need to be reminded by the Governor! As for the proposal of our lord, "What do you really think?" Zhang Zhun said coldly: "Jingbei, I will take it down, I don't need your Jianyu to interfere!" Go back to where you came from! ”
Yalai sighed slightly, and said with some regret: "What a great opportunity this is! The Governor didn't catch it! It's a pity, what a pity! ”
Zhang Zhun said coldly: "Yalai" You don't have to bother to sow discord! You go back and tell Huang Taiji to do the math yourself! How many Han Chinese he killed us, how many Manchurians we will kill back in the future! If he kills me a million, I'll kill you a million! I hope he will do it for himself! ”
Yalai laughed unscrupulously and said arrogantly: "In that case, we will wait for you!" ”
Zhang Zhun took a deep breath and shouted categorically: "Send off!" Wang Shide immediately put on a posture of sending off guests.
Yarayan was gone.
After a while, Wang Shide sent the guest back and said angrily: "My lord, why don't you kill him?" This guy is so arrogant! He actually dared to tell me that he followed a lord who didn't know the general situation and didn't understand current affairs," Zhang Zhun sneered, glanced at Wang Shide, and said indifferently: "What are you doing to kill him?" He's clearly here to provoke us. It's just a dog of Huang Taiji, and killing him will stain my hands. If my guess is correct, Huang Taiji is also a bit difficult to ride a tiger now, and has to work hard to find a new way to solve the dilemma. ”
"He wants to inflict heavy losses on the Ming army, and the rest of the Ming army is in the fortified city, and if he forcibly attacks, he will inevitably pay a greater price. He wants to seek revenge on us, but he can't find a way. But he was unwilling to go back to Shenyang like this. His purpose this time was basically not hit, and he was cheated twice by us, and suffered heavy losses. He couldn't get angry, so he deliberately let Yalai provoke us. ”
Wang Shide suddenly realized: "I'll just say, this guy Yalai is like a mad dog today, and he is so arrogant in front of us. It turned out that their end was approaching, and they had to jump off the wall in a hurry. ”
Zhang Zhun nodded and said slowly: "If I were Huang Taiji, I would indeed be in a dilemma at this time. Retreated, Dolgon and Duofeng were not rescued, and the losses of their own troops were still very large, and it would definitely be difficult to explain after they returned. He was indeed disgraced this time, even if he attacked Gao Qiqian, he couldn't make up for the huge losses. ”
"But if you don't retreat, you have been staying in Beizhili, and you have long nights and dreams, and the psychology of the Tartars will gradually change. If you stay outside for a long time, you will definitely feel homesick. Besides, we have occupied Iron Mountain, and Huang Taiji cannot but withdraw his troops. If the main forces of the Tartar army are not withdrawn, "we can do it in Korea." ”
Wang Shide said thoughtfully: "What do you mean, is it likely that Huang Taiji will withdraw his troops in the short term?" April or May? ”
Zhang Zhun nodded and said coldly: "It's probably April." He asked Yalai to come and propose to attack the Jingshi with us, but in fact he wanted to paralyze us and make us mistakenly think that he was going to stay in Beizhili for a longer time. In fact, he should be preparing a retreat now. Before retreating, though, he's sure to go crazy again. ”
Wang Shide hurriedly asked, "What should we do?" ”
Zhang Zhun took a deep breath again, calmed down his emotions, and said slowly: "Pulling the list and calculating the ledger is our style!" You ask people to calculate, "Look at how many of us the Tartars have killed" In the future, in Shenyang, we will slowly liquidate! At the same time, order all the troops on the front line, ready to attack! ”
Wang Shide immediately turned around and left.
By March 14, the prototype of the three fortresses had been basically completed. The area of these three bastions is not large, but the walls are very strong and quite high. The walls of the bastion, at its shortest, are more than ten meters. This means "a full three-story building." Compared to the cavalry of the Tartars, such a high level is already an insurmountable obstacle.
On the north side of the bastion, a large number of irregular steel bars are also inserted. The role of these rebars "was, of course, to slow down the attack of the Tartar cavalry." Once the Tartar cavalry galloping at high speed hit the top of these steel bars, they will inevitably break their heads and bleed into their stomachs. The presence of these steel bars seriously curbed the mobility of the Tartar cavalry. The Tartar cavalry wanted to quickly approach the fortress, "That's impossible."
At this point, even if there are thousands of Tartars to attack, they will have to pay a huge price. However, the large army of the Tartars, still did not appear. Intelligence shows that neither the Tartars of Iron Mountain nor the Tartars of Shen Deli Win City have shown any signs of mobilization. On the contrary, the officers and soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army's Pinzi Battalion arrived at Iron Mountain on this day.
"My lord, report to the Pinzi Camp!"
Zhang Lingyun, the commander of the Pinzi Battalion, came to Zhang Zhun and reported aloud.
"Good! Great work, everyone! ”
Zhang Zhun said enthusiastically.
The arrival of the Pinzi battalion marked the official establishment of an advance base for the Tiger Ben Army on the coast of Tieshan. It would soon become the joint command of the Ming army and the troops loyal to the Joseon royal family. Knowing that the Tiger Ben Army had gained a firm foothold in Tieshan, Fengpingjun Li Jue had already set out from Seoul to come to Tieshan to inspect the war preparations on the spot and discuss the specific matters of joint operations.
The Pinzi battalion commanded by Zhang Lingyun has a total of five associations and twenty-five squads, not counting officers and auxiliary troops, but a total of Younuo soldiers.
They were stationed in three bastions. Such a force, relying on the strong and brittle fortifications of the fortress, was enough to withstand the frantic attack of thousands of Tartar cavalry.
With a battalion of Tiger Ben garrisoned and the assistance of the navy, the three fortresses will continue to improve, and eventually surpass Dongjiabao and become a strong military fortress. In other words, the nail of the Tiger Ben Army in the Iron Mountain was deeply penetrated, and if the Tartars wanted to pull it out, it was impossible. Even if Huang Taiji returned to Liaodong, he had to carefully consider whether to launch an attack on these three fortresses.
The taste of being pierced into the ribs by a nail is of course uncomfortable. Hearing the news that the Tiger Army was building a military fortress on the coast of Iron Mountain, Dai Shan anxiously did not sleep well for several nights in a row. Of course, he understands very well what the next move will be when the Tiger Ben Army builds a military fortress here. However, there are only so many troops in his hands, and he is really powerless.
On March 10, Zhang Zhun left Tieshan with confidence.
He needs to go back to Dongjiabao. Huang Taiji's movements in Beizhili are getting bigger and bigger, and if he doesn't find a way to curb it, I don't know what he is going to do. Huang Taiji's proposal reminded Zhang Zhun. In case Chongzhen can't hold on to the Beijing Division, what should the Tiger Ben Army do in order to quickly take over the Beijing Division and not let the Tartars succeed. The belongings in the Jingshi and the jade silk of the children, if they fall into the hands of the Tartars, it will be a pity.
In addition, Lu Xiangsheng's matter also needs to be operated by Zhang Zhun himself. According to the news fed back by the intelligence department, Gao Qiqian has indeed stepped forward to intercede for Lu Xiangsheng. Chongzhen also seems to be interesting, and is ready to give Lu Xiangsheng a way out. However, before Lu Xiangsheng is actually released, this matter may still be uncertain. Moreover, with Lu Xiangsheng's character, if he wants to join the Tiger Army, most of them have to meet him in person. Well, when it came to meeting this famous figure, Zhang Zhun was still a little nervous and looking forward to it.
