Jierharang siege is also very cautious, long-term in Shenyang, long-term in Huang Taiji's side, Jierharang's combat effectiveness is fully recognized, he is not as arrogant as Daishan and Dolgon and others, he believes in the facts, no matter how to say Jiangning Battalion, at least Jiangning Battalion really caused trouble to the warriors of the Qing Dynasty, which was not done by the Ming Border Army and the Weisu Army, just by virtue of this, we can not underestimate Jiangning Battalion.

Jierharang's attack, thunder and rain, war drums rumble, but there are not many soldiers attacking the city, and the personnel are very sparse, which greatly reduces the role of artillery, Ma Xianglin, who is stationed in the city, is angry and angry, but there is no good way, according to his temper, he has already rushed out of the city with the soldiers, but Su Tiancheng and Sun Chuanting's orders are very clear, no matter what the circumstances, you must stick to the city, Zierharang does not withdraw, then stick to the city, and deal with it.

At this time, Ma Xianglin also began to admire Jierharang, thinking that Jierharang knew the power of the Jiangning battalion's artillery and would not attack abruptly.

When the soldiers began to attack the city, half of Zilharang's mind was still on Daishan's side, he was calculating the time, according to his own marching speed, Daishan should have arrived in Xuanzhou, and launched an attack from the north gate of Xuanzhou, and now the Jiangning battalion sergeant stationed in Xuanzhou has divided a part to block Daishan, at this time, the battle should also start, no matter how the Jiangning battalion sergeant is arranged, the disadvantage in numbers is real, Daishan is sure to win, once Daishan's army breaks through the encirclement of the Jiangning battalion sergeant, When the two armies began to attack Xuanzhou, it was time to exert their strength.

Therefore, the attack at this time is nothing more than putting on a show and trying the depth of the Jiangning battalion.

Zhongjun's tent, Zilharang and Fan Wencheng are all in it. The sand table was placed in the middle, and the conversation between the two was not how to attack, but mostly involved Dai Shan.

"Lord Fan, do you think Prince Li's army should fight with the sergeant of the Jiangning Battalion who blocked the attack?"

"Lord Wang. The slave thought that Prince Li should fight with the sergeant of the Jiangning battalion, and the servant thought that Prince Li had an absolute advantage, and the number of sergeants of the Jiangning battalion was insufficient, which was the biggest flaw. It was really a failure, the strength of the blocking force was insufficient, and the strength of defending the city was also defective, and the minions concluded that the Jiangning battalion must be completely defeated this time. ”

Zilharang nodded, there was no smile on his face, the key was the news reported by the scout, the direction of Sumeru Island. There was not much movement yet, and the scouts did not dare to get too close to the soldiers of the Jiangning Battalion who were blocking the attack. lest they be discovered, and at that time, the chances of escaping will be slim.

"That's what Lord Fan said, but I'm a little strange, why the attack hasn't started yet, the news brought by the scouts. It's still calm over there, is Prince Li's army still on the way? ”

Fan Wencheng looked at the sand table and spoke for a while.

"Lord Wang, from Pyongyang to Xuanzhou, enter the direction of Sumeru Island. If you want to attack Xuanzhou, there are three roads, including the road along the seaside of Sumeru Island, which is not a choice, and the other two roads, one is along the road of Huazhuang, which is the main road, most of the merchants and ordinary people choose to take this road, the slave thinks that Prince Li will not choose this road, the emperor has specially emphasized that the artillery of the Ming army is sharp, this road is flat, and the artillery can exert great power, Prince Li will definitely take into account the artillery of the Ming army, and the other is the road of a line of sky, this road, Basically, it is a mountain road, in the mountains and mountains, Prince Li chose to take this road, which can well avoid the artillery of the Ming army, but the speed of the march is slower, and there will be gains and losses, Prince Li chose this road, the speed must be much slower, and the weather is very hot, the army is even slower. ”

Zilharang's brows were still furrowed, he knew that this was Fan Wencheng's words to comfort him, in fact, the two of them had analyzed it on the road, according to the normal marching speed, even if they chose to take a line of sky, they should have reached Xuanzhou, even if the army had not yet arrived, it was said that Dai Shan should also wait for the information to be reported, so that both sides could understand the speed of the other party's march, where they went, and when they launched an attack, they could assist each other. But now, he has launched an attack on Xuanzhou, and there is still no news from Daishan's army, could it be said that there is something delayed on the way.

Zilharang couldn't figure it out, the scouts were always staring at the direction of Sumeru Island, there was no sign of attack, if it was really a matter of the speed of the march, at this time, Daishan should also send scouts to report the news and inform them that the march was delayed.

The siege battle has been going on, Zilharang has no intention of really attacking, the soldiers charge back and forth, like acting, once the Jiangning battalion sergeants begin to counterattack, the siege sergeants retreat like a tide.

After a long time, Ma Xianglin doesn't care, tell the soldiers to pay attention to rest, no matter how the war drums of the Houjin Tartars beat, as long as the Houjin Tartars are not close to the city wall and do not really start attacking, don't care about them, people are willing to run around, what do you care so much, at this time, even if you fire artillery, I'm afraid that the first shell will land, and the Houjin Tartars who are attacking the city will run clean.

An hour passed, and there were no casualties among the besiegers and defenders, and both sides seemed to have a tacit understanding, and neither intended to attack seriously.

Ma Xianglin gradually became a little anxious, he felt that it was too boring to keep consuming like this, or just do it well, what does it mean to consume it like this, in fact, Ma Xianglin doesn't know the analysis of the Dao, and the occurrence of such a situation shows that Jierharang is also thinking and waiting, the time for the general attack has not yet arrived, Ma Xianglin should be happy, which means that Jierharang still does not know the situation of the Dao Daishan, and does not know the Zhenghong Banner Army of the Dao Daishan, which has been surrounded by the Jiangning battalion, and there is a danger of annihilation of the whole army at all times.

Time passed slowly, and Zilharang simply stopped the attack and ordered the army to stand by.

The attack that began at noon lasted for nearly two hours, and the two sides barely really fought each other, the information from the scouts, the direction of Sumeru Island, there was still no movement, at this time, Zilharang was still a little worried, he was familiar with Dai Shan, and he knew better how Dai Shan behaved after accepting the military order, to say that he delayed the trip, or deliberately delayed, this is absolutely impossible, no matter what, Dai Shan's overall concept is very strong, even if the last time his son Yue Tuo was captured by Jiang Ning Yingsheng and killed by the Ming court, Dai Shan still didn't have many complaints, at least on the surface, Huang Taiji sent Dai Shan to North Korea, which was obviously a derogatory meaning, Dai Shan happily accepted the task, so much so that Huang Taiji couldn't bear it.

Unless Dai Shan encountered any trouble, but what kind of trouble, Zilharang couldn't think that from Pyongyang to Xuanzhou, on the way, there could be no danger, and he led the army from Shenyang to Xuanzhou, I am afraid he had to be careful, and Dai Shan did not have any worries about this at all.

It was close to the unitary hour, and Zilharang couldn't sit still, walking back and forth in the Chinese military tent.

Fan Wencheng on the side, frowned, and did not speak, in such a situation, Fan Wencheng didn't know what Lu Dao said, he couldn't make an accurate analysis.

There was a hurried sound of horses' hooves.

Even if they are scouts, they have to get off their horses and run over to report five hundred meters away from the Chinese tent, but this time the sound of horses' hooves obviously stopped outside the Chinese tent.

There was a shout from the soldiers outside, Zierharang was too lazy to look outside, just now attacked Xuanzhou, the soldiers held their breath in their hearts, they were not able to attack well, and they quickly collected the troops, who knows if there are officers in the army who are unhappy in their hearts, and they galloped wildly in the barracks, and accidentally came over.

When the soldiers came in with the scouts, Zilharang's face changed slightly.

The scout who came in was the scout of the red flag, Zilharang waited for a long time, and finally there was news, this kind of excitement was indescribable, but judging from the face of the scout who came in and the clothes on his body, the situation was very bad.

The few scouts who came in were pale, and there were blood stains on the uniforms of several scouts, could it be that they were fighting with the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion who blocked the attack.

Before Zilharan could speak, several of the scouts fell to their knees.

"Lord Wang, save my flag master, it's too late if it's too late......"

"Bang Dang ......"

The teacup in Zilharang's hand was adjusted to the ground and shattered, the words were so sudden that he was not prepared for it at all.

He looked at the scout on his knees, and his face became a little hideous.

"Tell me what's going on."

"Lord Wang, the army is advancing in the direction of a line of sky, in a valley more than 20 miles away from here, encountered an ambush by the Ming army, the army suffered heavy losses, my flag master organized soldiers, desperately broke through, helpless Ming army's artillery sharp, the army was besieged in the valley, it was difficult to advance and retreat, my flag master ordered me to break through at the risk of death, implore the prince to rescue, on the order of the flag master, rushed out of more than a thousand brothers, there are only a few of us left......"

Fan Wencheng, who was behind Zilharang, suddenly stood up and walked quickly to the front.

"Let me ask you, how many Ming troops are attacking Prince Li, and whether it is the Jiangning battalion."

"It's the Jiangning camp, dense, no less than 20,000 people, Lord Wang, please save my flag master, it's too late, Lord Wang, please......"

Fan Wencheng made a look, and the soldiers next to him quickly took a few scouts out of the way.

Zierharang's face turned pale, he had been paying attention to the Jiangning battalion sergeants who were blocking, and there had been no movement, why did more than 20,000 Jiangning battalion sergeants suddenly appear, where did these people come from, why did the intelligence not reflect it, if Daishan encountered so many ambushes by the Ming army, the next step, I am afraid it will be his turn.
