Soon, the Houjin generals in Gaizhou City were frightened when they reconnoitred some situations in Xiangma and learned that a large number of Zhu Jiajun had come. Immediately sent a letter to Zilharang, asking to abandon Gaizhou, and immediately to the back. As for blocking the landing, he didn't even think about it.

One is that Houjin has no navy at all, the second is that there are few troops in the city, and the third is that the mountain road is difficult to walk, and when he arrives at the beach, everyone may have rested for a long time.

As a result, the landing of Zhu Jiajun became extremely relaxed. In the face of Houjin without a sailor, you can go to the coastline everywhere, just like your own back garden.

At this moment, Zhu Jiajun's choice of the location on the coast is sixty miles away from Gaizhou.

There were no people in this place, and the people living in the place were some Han people, and a few Manchurians saw the sails on the sea dense, so they packed up their things and ran to Gaizhou.

Throughout the day, 20,000 Zhu Jiajun went to the coast one after another.

Then the engineer corps and the new barracks began to come over, followed by the repair of the temporary piers and camps.

When Zilharang received the news, he immediately sent a message to Mukden. At this time, Huang Taiji was far away in Xuanda and Mongolia. Even if it is 800 miles of fast horses running dead people, fast horses to deliver letters, it will take ten days and half a month to run back and forth!

Not to mention, when Huang Taiji's twenty or thirty troops were to all come back, it would only take more than a month.

Therefore, Zhu Zilong was not worried at all about any big military changes in the rear of Houjin.

Zhu Jiajun has plenty of time!

Two days later, three artillery regiments brought in from the sea were also in place.

However, without waiting for the people of the Zhu family army to push the cannon under the city of Gaizhou. At night, the two or three thousand Houjin soldiers in Gaizhou City, led by the boss, ran away with a stream of farts and urine. Abandon the city and run!

Zhu Zilong and his younger brothers successfully occupied Gaizhou without firing a single shot.

When entering the city, there were still more than 35,000 people in Gaizhou City who did not run away, all of them were Han military banners and robbed Ming slaves.

After Zhu Zilong led the army into Gaizhou, he gave Ma Xiaosan and others a death order:

"Listen, you see, to be merciful to your enemies is to sin. Now, your task is to kill, burn, and rob them all. Don't hesitate at all, as long as the Eight Banners are full, men who are more than the height of the wheels will be killed. All the women were taken away, and the Han slaves were also taken away. The crops in the field, those that can be harvested, let the logistics go to harvest them immediately. If it is not ripe, burn it immediately. Houses, burned, wells, filled with mud. ”

Most of the people in the city were slaves, and there were really not many remnants of the Manchurians. But this attitude must be there!

The Ming people in the city immediately arranged for Zhu Jiajun to board the ship and transport it back to Shandong. Anyone who resists and has unfavorable behavior, even if it is a Ming person, will be killed on the spot.

After killing a group of green-skinned gangsters who did not obey orders, these tens of thousands of people who were originally from the Ming Dynasty were insensitive and obedient to the ship.

On Houjin's side, looking at the Gaizhou guards and soldiers who ran back, Zilharang did not reproach them. The reason is very simple, the little strength under his command can't confront the Zhu family army at all, and he can't defend the city.

After all, the Zhu family army came too quickly and had too little time to prepare. You can't change anyone!

After much consideration, in the end, Zilharang decided to gather all the people he could use under his command and defend Panjin City.

Panjin City is located in the southwest of Liaoning Province, in the center of the Liaohe River Delta, with a total area of 4,084 square kilometers, accounting for 2.75% of the total area of Liaoning Province. There are Han, Manchu, Korean, Hui, Mongolian and other ethnic groups.

In the 21st century, Panjin City is an emerging petrochemical city and the headquarters of Liaohe Oilfield, the largest production base of heavy oil, ultra-heavy oil and high condensate oil in China.

Therefore, it is said that this is a place where soldiers must fight, or a large oil field in later generations, and the city is the most important city.

Zilharang decided to defend the city, and mobilized 50,000 to 80,000 men to dig a trench and set up a barrier outside the city. Even if he can't make it, he can't make barbed wire, but the Houjin army, who studied the war in the war, knows how to set up defensive positions.

They had their skills, and the few large generals' cannons were also moved to the city, and all the surrounding people were evacuated into the city.

Zilharang believes that if the Zhu family army has the intention to attack the Houjin territory, this is a place that must be attacked, and it is impossible to bypass it. If you don't fight here, then the back road and grain road of the Zhu family army will be in danger, which is a taboo for soldiers!

This judgment is undoubtedly correct, after Zhu Zilong led the army into Gaizhou, he was thinking about how to attack Panjin.

If Zilharang gathers his troops, he will still have more than 10,000 usable soldiers, and if he uses the people as meat buns, the defense of the city will still be effective in the war of this era.

This is also the reason why Zilharang did not run away and dared to decide to defend the city.

However, if you think about it carefully, the fundamental reason why the Later Jin and Qing armies were stronger than the Ming army was that they had strong field combat capabilities and strong mobility.

After all, they are born to be a nation of horses.

It seems smart to go long and short now, but it's actually a very stupid idea. Zhu Zilong didn't mind using his own method to hurt Ji'er Harang.

Over the years, the success of Houjin in these years is all because the Ming army is too bad.

With the mobility of the cavalry, Houjin has always taken the initiative to attack on the battlefield against the Ming army. Don't think about defense at all. This kind of mentality is used to by the former garbage Ming army.

Now that the Zhu Jiajun is here, it is necessary to re-educate the Later Jin Qing Army and let them understand that they are not good at the technical work of defending the city.

However, both sides can have a few days to prepare.

Because, among Zhu Zilong's 20,000 army, more than 10,000 are pure firearms soldiers. This soldier's equipment, obviously hot and cold weapons are completely different, and the dependence on logistics is very stressful.

Swords and the like, you can just chop them when you pick them up, but firearms are different, there is no logistical support, which is equivalent to holding a stick in your hand.

Another reason is that Gaizhou is occupied and it takes time to deal with it.

It seems that most of the people in Gaizhou City have been transported away, but it is not. There are also many people who are hidden in the nearby forests and mountains!

In order to avoid the time comes, things will happen that people will interfere with the grain road.

So, Zhu Zilong asked people to take down the remaining beggars on the street and distribute some food to each person. Let them fill the streets and mountains, and shout everywhere with loudspeakers.

"The hidden people have listened, and Wang Shi wants to relocate all the people of Gaizhou. Gather early tomorrow morning, you can bring your personal belongings. If anyone disobeys, there will be no forgiveness! Those who can't hide it will be killed! Confess leniently, resist strictly, and don't wait for obsolete time! ”

Let them call in this way, and no matter what the effect is, anyway, if they don't come by that time tomorrow, they will burn the woods near this official road with a fire.

It doesn't matter if the few people you hide in it are dead or alive.

Anyway, this is behind enemy lines, even if you are a citizen of the Ming Dynasty, TM has no eyesight, and you deserve to die.

Naturally, the handling of problems in wartime is simple and crude, and there is no excessive reason and conscience to be discussed. The so-called, this is the principle of mercy and not being in charge of the army! -
