It was almost dawn, and Su Tiancheng almost didn't sleep all night.

The situation within a radius of two hundred miles, he knows the way, the scouts did not rest, reconnoitred everywhere, the intelligence continued to pour in, Hong Chengchou led the army, surrounded the army led by Duoduo, and launched a tragic battle, the Houjin Tartars were unusually tenacious, although they were at a disadvantage, but they resisted desperately, and finally persevered until dark, Liu Tiehan led the Jiangning battalion soldiers, annihilated the vanguard of the Houjin Tartars, and captured the Zhenglan Banner of the Manchurian Eight Banners, Jin Li, Sun Chuanting led the Jiangning Battalion Water Division, occupied Lianyun Island, and acted quickly, Gaizhou has been surrounded.

The situation is developing in an increasingly ideal direction, and Su Tiancheng knows that the first battle of the expedition will definitely be able to achieve huge results, and it will be an unexpected result.

According to the previous arrangement, it was to adopt the tactics of besieging the city to send reinforcements, and after surrounding the city of Gaizhou, he specially fought the Houjin Tartars who came to reinforce him, and he didn't expect that Huang Taiji also made arrangements, taking defensive tactics in the direction of Liaodong and offensive tactics in the direction of Haizhou, which became an opportunity for Su Tiancheng to quickly break the situation and achieve a major victory.

However, Su Tiancheng realized that the news of Duoduo's siege could soon reach Haizhou, and Zilharang would never sit idly by, and would definitely send reinforcements to rescue Duoduo who was besieged.

This is another tactic of besieging the city and sending reinforcements, that is, to prevent the rescue of the Houjin Tartars, completely exterminate the army led by Duoduo, as long as the army led by Duoduo is basically wiped out, the Houjin Tartars who come to reinforce will quickly retreat to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past, and then, the Houjin Tartars in the direction of Haizhou will definitely make major adjustments, in Shenyang's Huang Taiji. I'm afraid I won't be able to live in peace.

The most important situation now is when the troops reinforced by the Houjin Tartars will set off.

According to Su Tiancheng's prediction, it will take at least another day or so, and maybe by that time, Duoduo's army has been wiped out. In this way, the 70,000 Jiangning battalion army will unite in one place, and form a counter-encirclement for the Houjin Tartars who came to reinforce, and once again give the Houjin Tartars a heavy blow, and Sun Chuanting, who besieged Gaizhou City, can also send soldiers to attack from behind, so that the Houjin Tartars are overwhelmed.

If such a situation really occurs, Su Tiancheng must completely adjust the combat deployment. Houjin Tartar suffered such a heavy blow that they could no longer contain Gaizhou, Yaozhou and Haizhou, and they may need to strengthen the defenses of Shenyang and Liaoyang and consider how to deal with the situation in Liaodong.

Su Tiancheng rubbed his sore eyes, ready to walk out of the Zhongjun tent and go outside to absorb the fresh air, in the early hours of summer, it is always very comfortable.

A scout enters the tent of the Chinese army.

"Excellent. The army reinforced by the Later Jin Tartars has already passed through Gaizhou. It's less than a hundred miles away. ”

Su Tiancheng paused for a moment, it came so fast, could it be that the golden tartar flew over.

"Oh, didn't Sun Chuanting surround Gaizhou, didn't he stop the Houjin Tartars who came to reinforce him."

"The subordinates estimated that the Houjin Tartars did not pass through Gaizhou."

Su Tiancheng waved his hand.

Zhilu said. If you go to investigate again, report any situation at any time. ”

After the scout left, Su Tiancheng quickly walked to the side of the map and looked at the map carefully. At this time, Qu Qingze, Bi Maokang, Liu Shiliang, Luo Chang, Di Huaixiang and others also came in, and everyone knew that the reinforcements of Houjin Tatar were about to arrive.

Su Tiancheng finally raised his head.

Looking at the crowd, he spoke.

"The reinforcements of the Houjin Tartars came very quickly, which shows that Zilharang has sensed that the situation is wrong, we have calculated the time before, Hong Chengchou led the army, encircled and suppressed the Houjin Tartars led by Duoduo, but in a few hours, the people sent by Duoduo to deliver the letter were intercepted by us a lot, but there must be someone rushing out of the city through other roads, but even if the speed of the Tartars is fast, at this time, at most, they rushed to Haizhou, Zilharang just learned of the situation, and quickly sent a rescue army, It is impossible to arrive so quickly, such a situation can only show that Zilharang has already sent a large army to rescue, I estimate that after the vanguard was attacked, Dordor took matters into his own hands, and the army continued to advance, without reporting to Zilharang in time, and Zilharang quickly sent a large army after learning that Dordor led the army to continue advancing. ”

"That's right, in my opinion, there will be two big battles today."

"Everyone, remember that our mission is to prevent the rescue of the Houjin Tartars, that is, we can't let a Houjin Tartar break through our defenses, we don't take the initiative to attack, as long as we hold here, it will be victory."

"This time, the blocking mission, focus on the role of the artillery battalion and the Shenji battalion, Di Huaixiang, you are the guard commander of the Shenji battalion, remember the tactics I said, the soldiers are lined up in three rows, fire bullets alternately, try to get the Houjin Tartars close, give them the maximum damage, in addition, the firing of artillery, to grasp the timing, we dig a large number of trenches, these trenches, for blocking the cavalry of the Houjin Tartars, has a great effect, when the time comes, the Houjin Tartars will definitely have an abnormal headache."

"Of course, it doesn't mean that we won't attack, if the battle situation is unusually favorable, we will also charge."

"You must remember that our main task is to block the attack, and it is enough to give the Houjin Tartar a certain degree of damage."

After Su Tiancheng finished speaking, Bi Maokang was a little incomprehensible, such a great opportunity, for what could not trap the Houjin Tartars who came to reinforce, and asked Sun Chuanting, who surrounded Gaizhou City, to lead the army to attack from behind, so that the front and back attacks would not give the Houjin Tartars another devastating blow.

"Marshal, my subordinates think that they can attack the defense, and still adopt ambush tactics to try to eliminate the reinforcements of the Houjin Tartars, so that the situation in Haizhou can be pacified in the shortest possible time."

Su Tiancheng looked at Bi Maokang with a smile on his face.

"I believe you all think like this, since Hong Chengchou led the army and has surrounded Duoduo, why can't we encircle the reinforcements of the Houjin Tartars, wouldn't we be able to achieve a major victory with such a two-pronged approach, this is indeed a perfect tactical arrangement, but we can't do that, you come and see."

Su Tiancheng walked to the side of the map, pointed to Gaizhou, Haizhou, Yaozhou and Liaoyang, and spoke again.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there are more than 100,000 Houjin Tartars stationed in Haizhou, Duoduo led an army of 30,000 and fell into a heavy encirclement, according to my expectations, the rescue army sent by Zilharang will not be less than 30,000 people, so that there are still close to 50,000 Houjin Tartars stationed in Gaizhou and other places, from this situation, if we can exterminate the reinforcements of Houjin Tartars, in the battle to conquer Haizhou, we will occupy an absolute advantage in terms of numbers."

"But we can't always think in our own favor, since Jierharang sent 30,000 troops to the rescue, can he not think about the defense of Haizhou and other places, he will definitely think of it, I can conclude that Jierharang will definitely ask for help from Haoge stationed in Liaoyang."

"Stationed in Liaoyang, there are the yellow flag and the blue flag in the eight banners, if these armies are out of the nest and rush towards the direction of Gaizhou, plus the Houjin Tartars stationed in Haizhou, you can think about how many Houjin Tartars we will face, more than 100,000 people, and at that time, the Houjin Tartars will be desperate, losing more than 60,000 sergeants, they can't bear such heavy losses, our pressure will increase suddenly, in such a short period of time, a full-scale decisive battle, you ask yourself, Is it really ready. ”

"On the contrary, we don't seek to exterminate the reinforcements of the Houjin Tartars and let them live, in this case, Jilharang must consider whether it is worth giving it a go, whether to let all the Houjin Tartars stationed in Haizhou go out of the nest, I can conclude that Jilharang does not dare to make such a decision."

"Jierharang will definitely report to Huang Taiji, the loss of 30,000 troops is indeed a heavy blow to Huang Taiji and Jierharang, but they still have the opportunity to change their deployment and try to protect Liaodong, Shenyang, and Liaoyang."

"We have to use the method of cutting the flesh with one knife, don't expect to kill the opponent with one knife, the more wounds on the opponent's body, the faster it will fall, and we can avoid big losses."

Su Tiancheng's analysis made everyone understand that such a truth is easy to understand.

Bi Maokang nodded and spoke again.

"The handsome and wise, the subordinates didn't think of this, they just thought of the joy of fighting, as long as they can destroy the Houjin Tartar, they didn't think of the things that followed."

A smile appeared on Su Tiancheng's face again.

"It's nothing, in fact, I also thought like this at first, after the scout came to report, I felt that Zilharang may have been prepared for a long time, in this case, we must be cautious, leaving time for Zilharang to breathe, in fact, it is also a chance for us to recuperate, you must know that this time the Houjin Tartar is very crazy, Hong Chengchou led the army, surrounded the army led by Duoduo, two rounds of artillery bombardment, a long time of fighting, but the Houjin Tartar still persevered, So we can't afford to be negligent in the slightest, and we have to do our best to deal with it, whether we are in favorable conditions or in unfavorable circumstances. ”

"Everyone, go and prepare quickly, it is estimated that in two hours, the reinforcements of the Houjin Tartars should arrive, we must raise our spirits and give the Houjin Tartars a heavy blow."

After everyone left the Chinese military tent, Su Tiancheng called Wu Rong in.

"Wu Rong, quickly hand over this letter to Sun Chuanting, you remember, hand it over to Sun Chuanting in person, and you tell him that the attack on Gaizhou City will be launched at noon, and Gaizhou will be taken in the shortest possible time, at this time, the Houjin Tartars guarding Gaizhou are restless, and it is difficult to resist with all their might, it is the best time to attack, I have Wu Hua and others by my side to escort it, it is enough."
