Chapter 331: The Tartar's Scheme

But these years, in the final analysis, they all have to be real to achieve their goals, no one will give in because of the coercion of the army, after all, they still have to live real tricks on the battlefield. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Chen Mingquan's command of cavalry battles is a bit immature, but if this traditional infantry army defends the city, it is not ambiguous at all.

Although the county seat of Shanyin is small, but the city wall is because of the continuous invasion of foreign enemies, and the construction is wide and strong, where two zhang high, every three steps a wall battlement, more than three steps wide, which provides enough space and cover for the soldiers defending the city, can allow them to calmly deploy troops.

And each city wall, there are four protrusions that can be sealed, more than three zhang high, just set up one in each fort, in order to condescendingly, from the flank to kill and wound the soldiers attacking the city, Chen Mingquan and deliberately strengthen the artillery one, more combat power, so, where a city wall about two miles long, only about 200 people to guard enough.

He mixed his 1,200 men with the 500 men who defended the city into ten teams, each of about 1780 men, the first of which collected the forts of each city, the second to the fifth, each of which guarded four gates, the sixth and seventh teams, each of which lived on the southeast side as a reserve, and the eighth and ninth teams, which dwelt in the middle of the city, ready to reinforce at any time.

The tenth team was scattered into a dozen shi, and was heavily guarded in all parts of the city to prevent traitors in the city. Thin up response.

There are also more than a dozen secret agents who originally belonged to Tiancewei and Shencewei, and led more than 40 local recruited helpers and strong men to gather five tithes to urgently organize and train into a team, and then go door-to-door to pay money to settle the people and recruit young and strong people to go to the city.

In this way, except for the young men who only belonged to more than 100 people at the west gate, 300 men were recruited from each of the rest of the city walls as helpers to burn oil and smash stones and trees, and the basic manpower was completed, just waiting for the Tartar soldiers to come and bump their heads and touch the blood.

And the Tartars outside the city were not idle at this time, and gradually gathered the main force here, there were already 22 Manchurian Niulu with blue flags, blue flags, red flags, red flags and two white flags, about 40 Mongolian Niulu from the Mongolian Horqin tribe, and no less than 5,000 people from the rest of the Han people.

In total, there were 4,000 Jurchen Tartar soldiers, 7,500 Mongol cavalry, and 15,600 Han Chinese.

In terms of troops, it occupies an absolute advantage, and then cut down trees to make siege equipment, not to mention, but seeing that the city tower is arranged, Zilharang is a little worried, so solemn and waiting, if the main force attack, you have to damage a lot, you will first shoot into the city with a letter to persuade you to surrender, but unfortunately there is no follow-up.

One day later, I saw an arrow shot in the city, and the book directly scolded the eighteenth generation of the ancestors of the Jurchen Tartars, and finally said that the 10,000 soldiers and civilians in the city have been treated solemnly, if they are not afraid of death, just come to war!

only jumped to the feet and scolded the Jurchens angrily, but the city was unmoved, just looked at them coldly, and there were enough cannons, and from time to time they fired a cannon to disrupt the deployment of the Jurchens.

"It's really infuriating, Lord Belle, please let me bring someone up, I'm going to screw off their heads."

Abatai is in charge of the Ministry of Metalwork, but unfortunately he is dealing with government affairs, this time he finally mixed up with the errand of the forward battalion, so he wanted to take the opportunity to make a meritorious career and kill more southern barbarians to please Huang Taiji, so looking at the arrogance of the southern barbarians, he couldn't bear his violent temper.

"Seventh Brother Hugh wants to be angry, I just see that his troops and horses are well arranged, and he also has both city defense, if he forcibly attacks, I am afraid it is not the best policy!"

Zilharang is Nurhachi's own nephew, he has been adopted since he was a child, and grew up with Nurhachi's son, plus he is very popular, and he can say a few words to anyone, and he led the soldiers and horses of Manchuria with blue flags, which was valued by Huang Taiji, and was named Heshuo Beyler, as the commander of the army leading the troops south.

And Abatai is different, he is the seventh son of Nurhachi, the son of the authentic thief chief, but his personality is a little reckless and unlikeable, after Huang Taiji succeeded to the throne of the Great Khan of the Jin Kingdom, he only gave him the title of Baylor, and even ranked below the foreign son of Zilharang, but he also knew his ability, so he never dared to compete with Zilharang.

But this time, he couldn't bear it anymore, and he was about to jump to his feet and scold the Ming army on the other side, but Zilharang's words made him quickly calm down.

"I lost a whole Niu Lu and two or three hundred Aha with the blue flag, but I didn't get impulsive, why is Seventh Brother so urgent?!"

This sentence suddenly made Abatai quiet, and he didn't dare to jump anymore, because Zilharang's tone was already about to devour people, who didn't know that the blue flag had been tossed by Amin, and now there were only more than 30 Niu Lu, although among the flags, it was still the flag with the advantage of troops, but whoever lost a whole Niu Lu had to be angry.

And his own Zhenglan Banner, which was originally under the control of Mang Gurtai, only had more than 20 Niu Lu, if he lost one, then he should be in a hurry now.

"I'm thinking that this time, I can't fight hard, just let some Nikan and Mongolian soldiers go up to consume, and then make other strategies, and ask the Ming troops in other fortresses to come out for reinforcements, if not, we can't save the safety of our Dajin warriors."

Zierharang is not the kind of commander who does not cherish his own soldiers like Du Du, he cherishes every soldier at hand, because he knows that the Jurchen tribe has only more than 40,000 soldiers, even if the whole tribe is a soldier, it is only 50,000 or 60,000 main forces, which cannot afford to lose, and he does not want to be like the Ming Dynasty, with tens of thousands of people and more than 10 million households.

Therefore, this is also the place where the entire Dajin regime is afraid of the begging army, because according to the continuous informants, the begging army has defeated the local official army and the liukou in Shanxi, and defeated the elite of the other main force of the Ming army on the north side, and the Ming army on the three sides can defeat the Mongols, so the combat effectiveness of the beggar army can be imagined.

The key is that they sit in Shanxi, and the people under their command are millions, once they develop, it will be the nightmare of the Houjin regime, no one will believe that the Houjin with armor is up to 100,000, and the long-term confrontation and fighting can beat the promising beggar army!

"But in this way, if they can't break the city, they won't send people to ask for help, and according to the nature of the southern barbarians, they will definitely not send reinforcements, so what should we do?"

No profit can not be early, the city is not broken through the safety, the main force of the Ming army in the vicinity, will be entrenched in the Yanmen Pass can not come out, the Yanmen Pass city is thick and thick, fighting, than this kind of small county, more difficult to break, at that time, the intention of attracting the southern barbarians to fight a decisive battle will be completely frustrated.

"Let's take a look first, these Nikan cavalry battles are not good, but they can still be used for this kind of consumption."

The red flag of the Dutong Yue Tuo thought about it on one side, and took a compromise method, that is, to fight first, if the county town of Shanyin is easy to fight, then go to attack with all his might, force the Ming army in the city to ask for help, and then intercept the Ming army from all walks of life with soldiers and horses, and break through each to achieve the goal of winning a complete victory.

"Lord Belle, please let me bring someone up!"

Sakhalian couldn't wait any longer, so he got up and begged for battle!

"Okay, Yue Tuo, you take your red flag, go to the north to suppress the formation, Sakhalian, you bring the soldiers and horses with the red flag, go to the west to monitor, Abatai, you bring the soldiers and horses with the blue flag, go to the east gate to press the formation, I take the warriors with the blue flag and two white flags to monitor at the south gate, and then drive the Mongols and Nikan into battle together, if the southern barbarians can't insist, you will invest in the warriors at hand and break the city together, if the southern barbarians can resist, don't go up, remember, the warriors we have at hand are not used for useless consumption."

Zilharang thought about it for a while, so he gave his own order, in fact, there is no need for him to say, these generals of the banners also understand that no one will consume the real Jurchen in this kind of siege battle, unless Huang Taiji personally leads the army and fights a key part of the Ming army, otherwise, it is their respective ideas to preserve their strength.

And the thousands of men and horses inlaid with blue flags and two white flags blocked between Yanmen Pass and Shanyin to cover the whole army.

"Yingzheng, the Tartar soldiers are up!"

The four gates warned almost at the same time, Chen Mingquan stared at the attacking enemy, and his heart suddenly changed, what kind of people are they, I saw from a distance that the real Tartars were all pressing behind the formation, and they didn't come up, this is to consume their own family!

So he shouted loudly, "Don't panic, each of them is ready to fight!" ā€

With the two thousand soldiers in Shanyin District with the same youth and strength, and the consumption of Tartars, Chen Mingquan is definitely not a loss, even if the second battalion of the cavalry town is exhausted, as long as he can consume the Tartars and win the time for the main force to deploy, it will be worth everything.

"Kill!"

The earth-shattering shouts of killing suddenly became one, and the Tartar soldiers surrounded the four gates, unable to attack......

At the same time, Li Jing led the town to defend the town, taught the main force of the town, and advanced to the county and Yanmen, during which he constantly dispatched troops and stationed them in various places, and constantly maintained communication with carrier pigeons, and also had a general understanding of the situation in Shanyin.

"Tartar is trying to lure us out of the city to go to the field, it's a good calculation, Liang Sijiu, the second battalion under your command, have you ever held on?!"

Liang Sijiu said with confidence, "The Metropolitan Governor can rest assured, if the second battalion talks about field battles, it will definitely not be the opponent of the Tartars, but relying on the defense of the city, within three or five days, the Tartars alone will not want to break the city!" ā€

This is not bragging, but a military order, he is full of confidence in his own elite second battalion, so it is definitely not empty words.

"Okay, tell the army to scout, get close to investigate, don't easily let go of any place where you can hide troops, I want to know every move of the Tartars."

With the huge mobile force of the entire three towns in his hand, even if it is a decisive battle in the field, Li Jing is not worried, but wouldn't it be better to consume the morale of the Tartars first, wait for three days, and then set off to defeat them in one fell swoop?!

"Zheng Renbao, a few trails after the Datong Bypass Yanmen Pass, have they ever been heavily guarded?"

"Returning to the Metropolitan Governor, take the trail, each has soldiers to monitor, and the mountain road is rugged, it is not easy to station, but the exit is a place where a horse is flat, so it is monitored by a small force, and there are six battalions of cavalry towns stationed behind, so it is foolproof!"
