414 Azig's Choice
"No, don't startle the snake, Lord Shi, Lord Jia, and this huge plan that we and countless people have worked so hard to do, how can it be exposed so easily, let's wait patiently, this time the Lord led most of the army in the DPRK to the south, but left us in the rear, the purpose is for this time of day, so we must give full play to our greatest advantages, and strive to annihilate the Manchu army that went south this time, as for those Mongolian tribes who want to take the opportunity to get rich, Let them be happy and happy now, and when the time comes, we will catch them all by the way, and also relieve some obstacles when we enter the grassland in the future. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" After hearing that question, Liang Zhendong, who was sitting in front of the bookcase and looking at the military book seriously, said softly.
Speaking of which, Liang Zhendong has fought a lot of battles with the soldiers of Shanxi over the years, although he has not fought any big battles like Li Yan and Li Dingguo, but whether it is him or his army, the small battles have never stopped, because the important position of Shanxi is not only closely connected with the North Zhili, the army has to fight with the Manchu army from time to time, and more importantly, those Mongolian tribes on the grassland will also want to go south from time to time to plunder.
It is in this situation that the Shanxi Army led by Liang Zhendong can be said to be the army with the most battlefields in the Ming Army, basically all the soldiers have been on the battlefield, have seen blood, all, before Shi Lei was ready to go south to enter the Huguang battlefield, after careful consideration, Liang Zhendong and his Shanxi Army were left, in order to use this iron-blooded team to protect their rear.
It is precisely for this reason that Shi Lei was so calm and not nervous after knowing that the Manchus had sent Duoduo to lead a large army to attack Xi'an City.

"Bastards, rice buckets, a group of rice buckets, when they were leaving, they swore to the king that they would definitely guard Wuchang City, but now, Ao Bai is really incompetent, 10,000 elite Eight Banners Force, he was ruined by him, you know, all of them are authentic Manchu warriors, he is still the first warrior of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it is really not as good as waste, and that Wu Sangui, even more incompetent, when he was in Shanhaiguan, it was quite powerful, and we have not advanced an inch for many years in defense, but nowSince entering the customs, more and more incompetent, one after another failures, the king even suspects that he has secretly defected to the Ming army, it seems, the Han people said really good, 'non-my race will be different' if this king can return to Beijing smoothly this time, will definitely appeal to the imperial court, these damned Han people are all abolished, the province of them are not enough to fail. ”
In Yueyang City, after so many days, the news of the defeat of Wuchang City finally reached the ears of Azig, at the beginning, Azig was still worth it as a joke, but it didn't take long, when the soldiers who were supposed to be stationed in Wuchang City ran back to Yueyang City one after another, Azig could only believe helplessly.
When this news became true, Azig couldn't help but become anxious, the importance of Wuchang City, he knew it best in his heart, after so many years of fighting, if he couldn't even see through this, he would not be appointed by Dorgon as the commander of the southern army.
You know, although the current Yueyang City does not seem to be tense, but he knows that it is just that the Ming army did not attack with all its strength, and the terrain outside Yueyang City is too complicated, but if the Ming army really attacks seriously, I am afraid that the crisis between him and Yueyang City will really come, the only thing that makes Azig feel fortunate in his heart is that the terrain of Yueyang City is complex, such as the Ming army to break all the water attacks in Wuchang City, which is not applicable to Yueyang City. But even so, Azig felt a real crisis.
Thinking that he was about to be surrounded by hundreds of thousands of troops, and more importantly, that he had even blocked his way out, Azig couldn't help but feel dizzy.
"Lord, what should we do now, Wuchang City has completely fallen into the hands of the Ming army, and our contact with Beijing City has been completely broken, and the original perfect defense line has also appeared a crack, the Ming army no longer needs to cross Dongting Lake, it can directly detour to the north and come to attack our Yueyang City, in this way, we are afraid that we will have to face hundreds of thousands of Ming army attacks, when the time comes, if we still defend the city, I am afraid it will ......." After hearing Azig's angry scolding, a Manchurian general couldn't help but stand up and said with some horror, but although he didn't finish his words, everyone present already understood what he was going to say.
Hearing the words of this Manchu general, Azig glanced up at him, and at the same time glanced at the faces of all the generals in the big tent, and saw these generals, most of them had a trace of sadness on their faces, you know, the generals who can be here, except for a few people, most of them are the generals of the Manchurian Eight Banners Army, and for these generals, what they are best at is cavalry conquest, and the power of the Manchu Eight Banners Army can only really exert great power in a wide place.
If it is in the plain or the vast grassland of the battlefield and other places, with the tens of thousands of elite Manchu Eight Banner Army in the city, they will not be afraid of the Ming army at all, although hundreds of thousands of troops, for them, are very strong, but even if they can not completely defeat him, they can also cause them certain losses, more importantly, they can leave the battlefield at any time, and they can leave as soon as they want, and the Ming army can't help them at all.
And now, although they are in Yueyang City, which is surrounded by high walls, and at the same time, there is a natural barrier of Dongting Lake outside Yueyang City, but this advantage does not make these Manchu generals feel safe, on the contrary, this complex terrain completely limits the mobility of the Manchu Eight Banner Army, which makes all Manchu generals feel a sense of fear and helplessness in their hearts.
Not to mention them, Azig himself felt the same way, which is why Azig was so irritable after getting the news of the loss of Wuchang City.
"Why, are you afraid, are you children and grandchildren raised by the white mountains and black waters afraid, don't forget, what are we, we are the great children of the Eight Banners, the descendants of the invincible Immortal Heaven, I think that the first Great Khan started from the thirteen armors and laid the current huge foundation, if he also encountered a little setback at the beginning, he was afraid, how could there be the prosperity of my Qing Dynasty today." Looking at the sad expressions on everyone's faces, Azig said with a gloomy face.
Hearing Azig's words, all the generals lowered their heads, and after a long time, one of the generals said, "Prince Ying, we are not afraid, I think that when we fought with Lin Dan Khan on the Mongolian steppe, in the face of hundreds of thousands of elite Mongolian cavalry, the last general did not feel afraid, now this situation, how can the last general feel afraid, but now this situation is not the best choice for our army, but it is not the best choice to stay in Yueyang City, you know, our Eight Banners elite, The most powerful has always been the siege and rush warfare, this kind of defensive warfare is not what we are good at, even if there is a city wall to resist, but we want to block the Ming army with rich siege experience, it is simply a very difficult thing. ”
"Oh, then tell me, what should we do now, if Wuchang City is still in our hands, we can calmly pass through Wuchang City, so as to retreat to the relatively wide terrain of Huainan, but now, Wuchang City has been lost, our retreat has been broken, more importantly, now we are near the Ming army's forces, whether it is Jiangxi or other places, have fallen into the hands of the Ming army, we want to enter these places, it is more difficult, want to detour from these places, it is even more impossible." Azig said helplessly, as a commander, after getting the news of the loss of Wuchang City, he already knew that if there were no major changes in this battle, his defeat would be a foregone conclusion, and he had already thought about the retreat of the remaining army, but unfortunately, he was vetoed in the end.
"Lord, we are indeed unable to retreat to Huainan smoothly now, which is also the reason why the Ming army did not hesitate to lose the people in Wuchang City to quickly seize Wuchang City, but why can't we do the opposite, since they don't let us go back to the north, then we have been going south, you know, now the southern land, but not into the hands of the Ming army, as long as we can quickly before the Ming army reacts, lay a stable chassis, so as to quickly expand their own power, This will be able to avoid the result of the annihilation of our entire army, and more importantly, there is no big force in the south, and we don't need to spend much effort if we want to fight down, and at the same time, now that the city of Beijing and the imperial court must have known the situation we are facing, they will definitely make a certain reaction, and when the time comes, we may be able to flank the Ming army on both sides, in that case, the Ming army that is attacked by the enemy on the back can hold on is also unknown. A veteran said.
Hearing the words of this veteran, Azig's face suddenly leaked a trace of emotion, you know, this war is now, there is no need to continue to persevere, and what they need next is how to preserve the most living force, as long as they can survive, then today's defeat and shame, that will be able to retaliate sooner or later, and this veteran's plan is also the only most effective way for them at present, but, think about it, The little merit that he managed to sit down with great effort in the south was so easily discarded, and Azig was still extremely unwilling in his heart.
Just as Azig was deep in thought, he suddenly heard a rush of footsteps coming from outside, and then he saw a guard leader hurriedly walk in from outside.
Seeing this leader who walked in in a hurry, all the generals of the Qing army couldn't help but feel a burst of shock, because it must be a big deal to make a leader on duty so anxious, it must be a big deal, it could be that the Ming army began to attack on a large scale, and some generals couldn't help but think in their hearts.
"Picture on the left, what is it that makes you so anxious." Seeing the leader who had walked in, Azig asked.
The leader of the zuo picture, who was known as the left picture, handed a secret letter to Azig, and said, "Lord Wang, I just received a 100,000 urgent secret letter from the secret agent sent by the imperial court, so the slave hurried to present it to the prince, and the slave didn't know what the specific matter was. ”
Hearing the reply of the left picture, Azig and the many generals present leaked out a look of surprise, they never thought that the Manchu court in Beijing would react so quickly, and had already made arrangements, thinking of this, the many generals who were originally in a low mood finally slowly relaxed in their hearts.
And when these generals were thinking about their hearts, Azig had quickly opened the secret letter in his hand, and looked at the content of the letter, because it was a secret letter, it was very small, and there was not much information on it, but even so, Azig still looked at it carefully for a long time before slowly putting down the letter paper, and at the same time, after he took a long breath, he said with an excited look on his face.
"God bless the Qing Dynasty, God bless me Daqing, I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen at such a dangerous time, good, good, it's really good, since the Immortal Heaven has given us such a once-in-a-lifetime good opportunity, then we must just grasp it, this king must fully assist the fifteenth brother to complete this task this time, when the time comes, as long as the plan is successfully completed, we will dominate the world in the Qing Dynasty, and the time has come for thousands of generations."
Looking at Azig's excited expression and listening to his somewhat incoherent words, although the many generals below didn't know what was going on, and they didn't know what was written on that piece of letterhead, which made Azig so weird, everyone knew that it must be a good thing, and it was a great thing, otherwise, Azig would not have become so out of shape, so although everyone was curious, they didn't bother Azig who was excited.
Half a day later, Azig finally slowly came to his senses, and then, his eyes returned to their previous sharpness, first looked at the generals in the room, and then said sharply, "The generals listen to the order, from today onwards, we must strengthen the defense line in Yueyang City, we must block the Ming army to the greatest extent, we must firmly attract their army, and we must not let a Ming army leave, do you understand?" ”
Although I don't know what the reason for Azig's sudden order is, the people present are all veterans on the battlefield, even if they are unwilling, but when the military order, they can only take the order.
