Su Tiancheng, who was busy setting up ambushes to encircle and annihilate the Houjin Tartars, couldn't take care of the broken things in the court, even if he knew the Dao, he couldn't be distracted to face it, since the crossing, Su Tiancheng's principle is very clear, that is, he will not take the duties that should be completed to make a transaction, he will not tolerate the arrogance of the Houjin Tartars, and he will not face the battle that should be carried out and sit idly by. Maybe this approach is not very wise, but Su Tiancheng understands this way, this cannot be changed, for example, the defeat of Liaodong, if Su Tiancheng sits idly by, the situation will definitely change differently, and he may be able to get the greatest benefit from it.

The battle deployment was all carried out, and the 70,000 Jiangning battalion soldiers were divided into two parts, Hong Chengchou led 40,000 soldiers and was responsible for the direct task of encirclement and suppression, and Su Tiancheng led 30,000 soldiers to be responsible for stopping the Houjin Tartars who came to reinforce them, and at the same time blocking the retreat road of the Houjin Tartars. Su Tiancheng knew very well that when it was time to fight, it was still necessary to test the real combat effectiveness of the army.

At this time, I believe that Sun Chuanting is about to receive an order, from the time calculation, Sun Chuanting should arrive at Lianyun Island, it is estimated that he should launch an attack, once Sun Chuanting arrives at the designated position, the ambush circle deployed by Su Tiancheng will be completely connected, and the Houjin Tartars who came to reinforce will face 60,000 Jiangning battalion soldiers who are blocking, and there is almost no possibility to break through these two lines of defense and reinforce the Houjin Tartars who are heavily surrounded.

The Houjin Tartar is speeding up the pace of its march, and in this process, anything can happen, and at such a critical moment, it is the scouts who can play an important role. After Liu Tiehan rested for more than an hour, he led the scouts again to investigate the situation, and by the time Su Tiancheng was ready to stop it, Liu Tiehan had already set off.

Confident with confidence, the army quickened its march. The half-day march has been very smooth, without encountering any problems, which makes Duoduo think that the sneak attack on Gaizhou is only a small force of the Jiangning battalion, probably because of his own negligence in the early stage, causing the Jiangning battalion to send scouts to detect the situation, so they quickly retreated.

The advice of his staff, Dordor did not forget. That is to report to Zierharang, the army has marched more than sixty miles, here is more than a hundred miles away from Gaizhou City, only about fifty miles away from Lijia Village, at this time, Duoduo finally decided, let the soldiers around him, go to report to Jierharang.

Of course, the speed of the pro-soldiers is different. Within one day and one night, you can reach Haizhou. Even if Zilharan raised an objection, by the time the order was given, it would be at least two days later, for such a long time, to speed up the march. It has long been in the area controlled by the Jiangning battalion.

What Dodor was most worried about was Zilharan's opposition, Zilharan was very cautious, and it was an advantage to think carefully about the problem, but thinking that everything was so thoughtful, it was actually impossible. War is to take risks, success is to take the details, wealth and danger are sought, in this world, there is no goal that can be achieved without taking risks.

August 24, 15th year of Chongzhen, 1642 AD.

This is a day that has been capitalized and close-up in history books, and it is also a day that Su Tiancheng will never forget.

The 30,000 soldiers led by Su Tiancheng were ambushed in the mountains more than 20 miles away from Lijia Village, a big road passed through the mountains, Su Tiancheng, who was holding a telescope, watched the vanguard of the Houjin Tartars and the large army passing through the mountain avenue, at that moment, he was very excited, the number of Houjin Tartars is indeed quite a lot, if you can completely annihilate this Houjin Tartars, it will give Huang Taiji a heavy blow, and if you want to completely defeat this Houjin Tartars, the pressure on the Jiangning camp is not small.

Qu Qingze, Liu Tiehan and others were all by Su Tiancheng's side, and when Houjin Tartar was still passing through this mountain road, Su Tiancheng directly asked for it.

"Liu Tiehan, lead the soldiers of the five hundred scout battalions, go to reinforce Hong Chengchou, follow Hong Chengchou's arrangement, my suggestion, capture the thief and capture the king first, the main task of the scout camp is still the leader of the captured Golden Tartars, don't get too involved in the fight, Liu Tiehan, you will give this suggestion of mine, directly to Hong Chengchou, I am waiting for your good news here."

Liu Tiehan solemnly saluted, didn't say a word, and turned to leave.

Hong Chengchou personally guarded the position of the artillery battalion.

Field operations, the role of the artillery battalion is crucial, can give the Houjin Tartars a devastating blow, this experience, from many battles, has been shown, this time is the Jiangning battalion after the conquest of the Golden Tartars of the most important battle, related situation, scouts continue to report, it is estimated that this group of scouts, the number of about 30,000, this is already a tenth of the strength of the Houjin Tartars, and there are eight flags in the white flag, according to the rumors of the combat effectiveness of the Houjin Tartars, the white flag and the white flag, It's the bravest army. If this group of Houjin Tartars is completely annihilated, the situation in the direction of Haizhou will undergo major changes.

When Liu Tiehan rushed over with the soldiers of the scout battalion, Hong Chengchou was very strange, and before Liu Tiehan could speak, he reprimanded him unceremoniously.

"Liu Tiehan, the battle is about to begin, at this time, you should stay by the side of the marshal, the safety of the marshal is the most important matter, anything can happen on the battlefield, the scout battalion has rich experience, can better protect the marshal, such a critical battle, the marshal can not have the slightest problem."

"My lord, it was the commander who ordered his subordinates to come over, and the commander said that the task of his subordinates is still after the battle begins, to capture the leader of the Houjin Tartars, and the commander orders his subordinates to obey the arrangement of the lord."

Hong Chengchou nodded slightly, and an emotional look appeared on his face.

"Dashuai has always been like this, every critical moment, he doesn't care about his own safety, I have said it several times, I remember when I was in Kuizhou, I was dripping blood in my heart, such a dangerous situation, if there is a slight mistake, the consequences are unimaginable."

Liu Tiehan did not participate in so many discussions, and he was not particularly clear about the overall situation.

"My lord, my subordinates think that this share of Houjin Tartars is only 30,000 people, so there is not much danger."

Hong Chengchou glared at Liu Tiehan.

"I don't have any danger here, 40,000 against 30,000 people, and the artillery battalion, it's okay to do a good job of attacking and fighting, you don't need to think about other matters for the time being, but the pressure on adults is not ordinary, this time the battle is different from the past, it can't end in a few hours, it may last more than two days, you think about it, the Houjin Tartars stationed in Haizhou, the number of people is more than 100,000, if this group of Houjin Tartars encounters danger, the Houjin Tartars stationed in Haizhou are not desperate rescues, Adults, the pressure is the greatest, only 30,000 people, Sun Chuanting commanded the sailors, the task is to surround Gaizhou City, and will not participate in the task of blocking the Houjin Tartars for the time being, the Houjin Tartars stationed in Gaizhou, the number is not very large, and when the Houjin Tartars stationed in Yaozhou and Haizhou are dispatched, that is the most dangerous time. ”

When Hong Chengchou said this, Liu Tiehan's face changed, and he couldn't imagine that Su Tiancheng, who was in charge of the ambush, encountered the greatest danger, and at such a time, Su Tiancheng lined him up to Hong Chengchou's side, obviously not taking care of his own safety.

But it's unrealistic to withdraw.

"My lord, my subordinates really don't know how to do it, and the marshal will encounter such a dangerous situation."

"I know that you don't blame you, I also predicted this, I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what happens, the marshal must not have any mistakes, since you are here, you are by my side, after the attack begins, seize the best opportunity, lead the soldiers of the scout battalion, capture the leader of the Golden Tartars, the faster we fight here, the safer the marshal is."

After all the Houjin Tartars passed, Su Tiancheng quickly began to deploy.

At this time, they can not continue to guard the mountain, that has no effect, the 30,000 people he led, but not an ambush, is also far away from the road, to avoid being discovered by the Houjin Tartars, once the Houjin Tartars enter the ambush circle, all the soldiers will have to stick in the middle of the road, and they can not hold in the mountains, they must build defensive positions in the open area, on the one hand, block the road for the Houjin Tartars to retreat, on the other hand, block the Houjin Tartars who come to the rescue.

The defensive position is not very complicated, mainly artillery and corresponding trenches, the Houjin Tartars are almost all cavalry, and there are not many foot soldiers, these trenches can effectively delay the pace of the Jin Tartars, so that they are under the range of artillery attack for a long time, the Houjin Tartars used this trick to deal with the reinforcements of the Ming army, in the battle of the Daling River and the battle of Salhu, they have used artillery to defeat the Ming army that came to reinforce, and now the artillery of the Jiangning battalion is extremely sharp, used to deal with the Houjin Tartars, It can be said that he has governed others in his own way.

The movement of the officers and men of the Jiangning battalion was unusually rapid, the artillery was quickly erected to the position of the reconnaissance of the gun, some of the sergeants began to lay wooden fences, according to the form of the construction of the barracks, set up defensive fortifications, and more soldiers of the Jiangning battalion began to dig trenches, which could delay the cavalry's march speed to the greatest extent.

The Chinese military tent was quickly erected.

Su Tiancheng's face has always been smiling, his expression has affected the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion, everyone feels relaxed, the boss is confident, the next battle will be very smooth, the Jiangning battalion will definitely be able to completely wipe out this group of Houjin Tartars and achieve the final victory.
