After the Jin soldiers retreated like a tide, Xiao Yi immediately ordered that there was no need to chase anymore. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Later Jin soldiers and the Mongols were mostly on horseback, and the cavalry wanted to retreat, but the infantry was difficult to pursue, and it was more likely to expend a lot of physical strength, but they were caught by them and counterattacked.

The Ming army did not have any formation, relying entirely on the courage of this moment, and it was very likely to be directly defeated.

The number of horses of the Ming army was far less than that of the retreating Houjin and Mongol cavalry, and it was more likely that they would be dumpled in pursuit of them, and the gains outweighed the losses.

At this time, Xiao Yi had the opportunity to take a closer look at the Dalinghe City in front of him, which had been contested several times by the two sides of Ming and Jin.

Dalinghe City is in today's Linghai City, Linghai City used to be called Jinxian, Dalinghe was called Yushui, Longchuan, White Wolf Water in ancient times, renamed Linghe (Linghe) and Dalinghe after the Liao Dynasty, with a total length of nearly 400 kilometers, it is the transportation hub of the Northeast and the Central Plains in ancient times.

Qi's Northern Expedition to Shanrong, Cao Wei's conquest of Wuhuan, Qianyan's entry into the Central Plains, Northern Qi's attack on Khitan, and Sui's and Tang's pacification of Goryeo, all took the Daling River Valley as the main route of the march.

Dalinghe City is located more than 30 miles east of Jinzhou, and it is an important line of defense to shield Jinzhou, which Sun Chengzong, who is the governor of Jiliao, also knows clearly.

If you want to consolidate Liao, you must build this city, and then Jin wants to attack Ming, you must demolish this city, since a few years ago, the two sides of the two cities of the big and small Linghe are very fierce, it has been two to build and two to demolish.

Looking at the battlefield again, all the units of the Ming army were overjoyed and happy, but they didn't expect that they really defeated the Houjin soldiers.

But at this time, among the soldiers of the Yong'an Army, there were only a few cheerers.

Most of them exhaled heavily, put down their big shields and spears, and sat on the ground, looking at the battlefield and the sky, looking very numb and tired, not knowing what they were thinking.

The reaction of the soldiers of the Yongan Army seemed incompatible with the other Ming troops, these Sun Chengzong and Zu Dashou naturally saw it, but they didn't say much, this fiasco was indeed hard-won.

Although the Houjin soldiers were defeated and retreated, they did not lose much of their living force, and if they were completely gathered, the number could be tens of thousands, and if they made a comeback, they would have to be guarded against.

Therefore, after a simple battlefield cleanup, Sun Chengzong immediately ordered, on the one hand, to send pacesetters to report the victory in Beijing and ask for additional reinforcements of grain and grass, and on the other hand, to start repairing Dalinghe City without stopping, and the walls were cleared.

Sun Chengzong expected that the slave chief Emperor Taiji would not give up.

And Xiao Yi's department was assigned to the eastern city wall, one to repair it, and the other to move everything that was available outside the city to the city.

In the remaining days, Da Linghe City, which had already built most of it, had become more and more complete and solid in the construction of tens of thousands of Ming troops day and night, and an urn city rose from the ground outside each of the four gates.

A deep ditch was dug outside the four urn cities, the river water was diverted into the canal, and a wooden horse was set up outside the city gate, and soon, the Dalinghe city was finally announced.

After the completion of the Dalinghe City, the scale is no less than the general town, the city is high and the pond is deep, and there are tens of thousands of troops led by Sun Chengzong, the governor of Jiliao, to defend here, which is difficult to overcome.

One night, Xiao Yi was thinking hard in the room, but Sun Chengzong came to find Xiao Yi in person and quickly took him into the house, and the two talked for a long time.

On the second day, Sun Chengzong was about to kill more than a dozen of the fleeing generals.

On the day of the beheading, there was inevitably a commotion, and Sun Chengzong's Liaodong elite was almost completely lost, without the suppression of the elite, those convicted generals knew that they would die, and they began to break the jar and break one by one, and shouted not guilty in disbelief.

But at this time, an army with the banner of Xiao Zi stepped into the school field with neat steps, surrounding the commotion of the Ming army, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, a group of Yongan soldiers held the tiger spear in their hands and slammed into the brick ground, and the murderous atmosphere suddenly permeated inside and outside the school field.

Xiao Yi strode onto the stage, knelt in front of Sun Chengzong, and after saluting, he faced the Ming army under the stage, and looked around the field with tiger eyes.

His eyes snapped at the back of the dozen or so people who were panicking, and shouted.

"This kind of Xiaoxiao is afraid of the battle and flees first, so that several soldiers are defeated, everyone says, should not be beheaded!?"

The surrounding soldiers of the Yong'an Army all stared at the field expressionlessly, and the rest of the Ming army, who were still a little restless just now, suddenly quieted down.

I don't know who shouted first.

"Slash!"

The rest of the people reacted and shouted after that.

At this time, Xiao Yi looked at Sun Chengzong, hugged his fists and said: "Please ask the superintendent to kill this wingman to calm the army's heart!" ”

On August 26, the fourth year of Chongzhen, the city of Dalinghe was built, and Sun Chengzong, the governor of Jiliao, picketed the first fleeing general, because the imperial army did not arrive, Xiao also led the Yongan military town on the school field to deter the small.

On that day, the Yong'an Army stood around the school field, only more than 2,000 people, and the officers and soldiers who returned after the collapse and escape in the school field were immediately silent, all of them were silent, and they did not dare to reply.

Sun Chengzong first invited Shang Fangjian to speak, and his words were fierce, reprimanding the fleeing officers and soldiers and generals, and then Hua Feng turned around, also known as only beheading the generals and exempting the sergeants.

This move made the hearts of the defeated soldiers in the city quickly settle down, and they all said that they were willing to bear the guilt and make meritorious contributions.

Later, Sun Chengzong, the governor of Liao in Ji, personally operated the sword, Xiao Yi, Zu Dashou, Meng Xiping, He Kegang, Zhang Cunren and others stood on their sides according to their swords, and defeated 18 people.

On the second day after the construction of Dalinghe City, Sun Chengzong did not wait for the reinforcements and ordnance, grain and grass that Sun Chengzong had been waiting for, but a cowering eunuch came.

The eunuch seemed to be a place where he could not stay for a long time, and after reading the holy decree, he immediately rode away, and he really came and went in a hurry.

"Overseer..."

After receiving this holy decree, Sun Chengzong's whole person seemed to be more than ten years old in an instant, kneeling on the spot, Zu Dashou and He Kegang glanced at each other, and kept shaking Sun Chengzong's body.

I saw Sun Chengzong throw the holy decree aside, and Xiao could clearly see the few lines exposed.

"Linghe is not a city, lead the army to return to ...... quickly"

On the same day, Sun Chengzong called Xiao Yi on the city tower, and the two looked at the night sky. Are you really leaving? ”

"Ugh..."

Sun Chengzong sighed: "There must be a traitor and villain in the court who are falsely accused, Xiao Yi, do you have a table?" ”

Xiao Yi nodded and said softly, "Yuntai." ”

"Gimbal..."

After muttering, although Sun Chengzong glanced at Xiao Yi in surprise, he didn't say anything, but said, "Yuntai, you come close, this governor has something to say to you." ”

Xiao Yi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly stepped forward, clenching his fists and bowing his head without saying a word.

"Yuntai, this governor can see that you have great talents, you shouldn't be just a small guerrilla general, when you return to Beijing, this governor will be a saint, and try to protect you as the chief military officer of Datong Town."

Looking at Sun Chengzong's old face and the sense of powerlessness revealed in his words, Xiao Yi felt sad and indignant for the first time, and there was a little crying in his words.

"Nope! Supervisor, the merits of this battle, Xiao Yi's merits are not taken, they are all established by the supervisor, and the Ming Dynasty can't do without the supervisor! ”

After Xiao Yi finished speaking, Sun Chengzong also looked at it carefully for a long time before he slowly opened his mouth: "Yuntai... You still don't know much about the affairs of the court. ”

Slowly pacing on the city platform, he sighed lightly: "Those self-proclaimed Donglin scholars, how can they let you stay here in peace." ”

Xiao Yi hesitated: "That... Inspector, shall we just withdraw? ”

Suddenly thinking of something, Xiao Yi continued: "Why don't you let the ancestral army gate still hold this place for the time being, Zhang Chun will lead people to reinforce, and I will defeat Houjin, and no matter how hard I persuade the saint in the face, I don't necessarily have to give up this great Linghe City." ”

At this time, due to the inconvenience of transportation in ancient times, it is likely that Linghe's good news has not yet reached the court, and Xiao Yi does not believe that under the good news, the court will also order the withdrawal of troops.

Sun Chengzong looked at Xiao Yi, this was also a solution, and said in surprise: "Yuntai actually knows Zhang Chun?" ”
