May 16, Liaodong, Yizhou.

Since the beginning of the campaign, Chen Xinjia basically did not say anything in the army, even if the emperor's decree of commendation came, Chen Xinjia also received the decree, and ordered the army to immediately prepare to attack Yizhou, but this time, Chen Xinjia suddenly felt that the army was about to start attacking Guangning, it is necessary to emphasize that the 100,000 troops who went out to fight will stay in the city of Montenegro with 10,000 troops and 20,000 troops in Yizhou, excluding the casualties of the sergeants, the 65,000 troops will attack Guangning, Qian Qianyi and Tang Haitai both suggested that 10,000 soldiers left in Yizhou is enough, Concentrate as many sergeants as possible to attack Guangning, but Chen Xinjia insisted on leaving 20,000 border troops, he has always been worried, afraid that the Mongol tribes will suddenly send troops to attack Yizhou, and there are more sergeants left in Yizhou, and they can also control the situation very well, at the same time, in the emperor's holy decree, he is required to be cautious, Chen Xinjia believes that this is also a manifestation of his caution, Montenegro and Yizhou left 30,000 sergeants, and the defense force is sufficient enough.

Because of the victory of attacking Montenegro and Yizhou, the morale of the army is high, and the understanding of the Houjin Tartars has changed greatly, although Chen Xinjia does not agree to despise the Houjin Tartars, but in his heart, he also has a trace of contempt for the Houjin Tartars, and they all say how powerful the Houjin Tartars are, that is probably a thing of the past, and now the border army, the combat effectiveness has been greatly improved, dare to attack the city, dare to confront the Houjin Tartars, with such morale, why not be able to take Guangning.

As for whether he is preparing to point his sword at Shenyang, Chen Xinjia is still in the process of considering it, this ambition, as the campaign continues, it has not been able to be destroyed, but it is clearer, Chen Xinjia has made a preliminary decision, once he takes Guangning, he will play to the emperor. I implore the imperial court to transfer troops to strengthen the garrison of Montenegro, Yizhou and Quang Ninh, and lead the army himself, cross the Liao River, and attack Shenyang, the capital of Houjin.

In the army, there are more than 1,000 officers. All gathered outside the tent of the Chinese army.

Chen Xinjia looked at the many officers and looked a little excited.

"Ladies and gentlemen, after taking Montenegro and Yizhou, I would like to thank you very much, if it weren't for your courage to kill the enemy, the army would not have been able to achieve such a record, and I hope you will make persistent efforts to take Quang Ninh."

"They all say how powerful the Houjin Tartar is. How brave, this Shuai may not see, half a month, the army and the Houjin Tartars fought several times, all won a complete victory, the Shuai sees, our army can completely defeat the Houjin Tartars. ”

"I'm about to attack Ningyuan, Ben Shuai reminds you. There is a fierce battle waiting for you. As long as we can take Guangning, we will drive the Houjin Tartars out of Liaodong and confront the Houjin Tartars in the Liaohe River, and if we do that, the situation in Liaodong will be completely changed, and this is a huge credit. You will become the meritorious ministers of my Ming Dynasty, and the commander will present your merits to the emperor. ”

"Ben Shuai knows that there will be a fierce battle in the attack on Quang Ninh, and Ben Shuai will be your strong backing. Ben Shuai will join you in the expedition, cheering for you, Ben Shuai believes that you will be able to completely defeat the Houjin Tartar and achieve a complete victory......"

After some agitation, many officers organized an army to prepare for departure, and in the Chinese military tent, Qian Qianyi, Tang Haitai and Zu Dashou were left, and Zu Dashou and Qian Qianyi will stay in Yizhou.

This is also Chen Xinjia's decision, the controversy that arose a few days ago still stimulates Chen Xinjia, led the army to fight, and captured Montenegro and Yizhou, which is a huge credit, but Qian Qianyi questioned the army's slaughter of the city, and has never forgotten it, and repeatedly said that he wanted to go to the emperor and severely punish this evil shape, as for the ancestor Dashou, the performance was even more excessive, and he even thought that it may be that the Houjin Tartar took the initiative to give up Montenegro and Yizhou, which is tantamount to denying the credit of the army, and denying his Chen Xinjia's credit, such an understanding, Chen Xinjia is unacceptable.

The responsibility of commanding the army was handed over to Zu Dabi, who had been following Chen Xinjia in the Chinese army, was steady and quiet, able to figure out Chen Xinjia's intentions, and could act in full accordance with the requirements, in this case, Chen Xinjia could better lead the army.

"Lord Qian, General Soldier Zu, Yizhou will be handed over to you, Ben Shuai has always been worried, if the Houjin Tatars mobilize the Mongolian tribes and launch an attack from the direction of Yizhou, the army will encounter front and rear attacks, so leave 20,000 soldiers to strictly defend Yizhou, Yizhou is only fifty miles away from Montenegro, Ben Shuai has asked that the 10,000 soldiers stationed in Montenegro keep in touch with Dalinghe City, you must always keep in touch with the sergeants stationed in Montenegro, so that the army has no worries......"

After Chen Xinjia finished speaking, Qian Qianyi replied with a fist.

"Don't worry, the commander and I will do our best to defend the ...... of Yizhou"

Zu Dashou did not speak.

The army was opened, and Qian Qianyi and Zu Dashou had been standing outside the city, watching the army disappear from sight.

Qian Qianyi was about to return to the city, and saw that Zu Dashou still didn't move, he knew the mood of Zu Dashou, as a general who had been leading the army for a long time, he couldn't participate in the battle of the army, and the mood must be bad, in fact, Qian Qianyi also understood that he probably also put forward his opinions, and he had very opinions about the border army's measures to slaughter the city, which caused Chen Xinjia's dissatisfaction. This is tantamount to completely denying Chen Xinjia's merits, and it is impossible for Chen Xinjia to tolerate it.

The army went out, if it was able to take Quang Ninh, it was a huge credit, but if it was not able to participate in this battle, the credit would be much smaller, Zu Dashou as a general who specifically commanded the operation, commanded the army, captured Montenegro and Yizhou, but at the critical moment, he stayed in Yizhou.

"General Soldier Zu, go back, the army has been mobilized, you and I need to do a good job in the defense of Yizhou, and the responsibility is also heavy."

Zu Dashou shook his head, and stopped talking, because of the honesty last time, he had already paid a huge price, in fact, he did not approve of attacking Yizhou, let alone leaving 20,000 soldiers to garrison Yizhou, but unfortunately Chen Xinjia insisted on his own understanding, felt that the location of Yizhou was very important, and repeatedly emphasized the threat of the Mongolian tribes, these possibilities are actually not very large.

"General Soldier Zu, the marshal has his own considerations, you and I don't have to figure it out, these days, I have also thought about it seriously, and I feel that what the marshal said, there is still some truth, no matter what, the army is invincible, the credit is huge, you and I can hold Yizhou, stabilize the defense, the same is indispensable."

Zu Dashou looked at Qian Qianyi, but finally did not speak.

Ningyuan City.

Hauge, Azig and the others looked a little lonely, and after waiting for so long, the day of fighting was finally coming, but unfortunately their spirits were not very good.

Huang Taiji's expression was very serious.

"Hauge, as the commander of the former army, you have a great responsibility, you have to remember that your main duty is to lure the Ming army into the ambush position, I know that you have anger in your heart, you think that you must try your best to charge in the war, fight with all your might, where is there a special battle to defeat the battle, I once warned you, look at the Three Kingdoms, look at some of the battles there, to win the battle, not exactly the battle on the battlefield, the planning under the battlefield is more critical, in the strategizing house, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away, this is the key to the victory of the battle, this battleYou know the importance of it, so I hope you can grasp it well and fight a good fight. ”

"Azig, as the deputy commander of the former army, you must assist Haoge and do a good job of ambushing on the road, Haoge leads the army to retreat, you are halfway to respond, you have to do better, to make the Ming army think that you can't resist, you have to retreat, so that the Ming army can chase after you, to be honest, I am most worried about you, your courage on the battlefield, that is needless to say, but now you want to lure the Ming army into the ambush circle, not to show your bravery, but to use your brain."

"Hauge, Azig, I have a word first, no matter what status you have, how noble you are, if you violate the military order, I will not be spared, and the same military law will be done, you go down and prepare."

The commander of the Chinese army, is Huang Taiji himself, Tony, Aobai, Tan Tai and others, are the most courageous generals, the duty of the Chinese army, is to encircle and annihilate the Ming army, the Ming army has a large number of people, thinking of annihilation in a short period of time, only the advantage of concentrating on the number of people, full of eight banners and Han eight banners, accustomed to field battles, cavalry is the most elite troops, this time all dispatched, staying in Shenyang, mainly foot soldiers.

Hauge, Azig and the others quickly withdrew from Lu and went to prepare for departure, leaving Fan Wencheng in the house.

"Wen Cheng, I'm still a little worried, I don't know if Dolgon can go straight to Dalinghe City, this move is very important, no matter how many soldiers the Ming army gathers, Dolgon must hold on, otherwise all my deployments will be in vain."

"Your Majesty, the slave thinks that Prince Rui knows his responsibilities and will definitely stick to it, and it is unrealistic to take Dalinghe City for the time being, but it will definitely be able to take back Montenegro and Yizhou and exterminate the vitality of the Ming army."

"Well, in this regard, I am prepared, I am still a little worried, if Su Tiancheng, who is far away in Dengzhou, suddenly rushes to Liaodong, I really don't know how to deal with it."

"Your Majesty, the information that the slave got from the capital of the Ming Dynasty, Su Tiancheng in Dengzhou did not have the slightest movement, Yizhou is only more than 100 miles away from Guangning, the Ming army has already set off, and it will be able to reach Guangning in two days, even if Su Tiancheng leads the Jiangning battalion and starts from Dengzhou, if he wants to help, it will be too late."

After a brief conversation, Huang Taiji's face showed pride, anyway, the army is ready, just waiting for the fish to take the bait, for this expedition, the Great Qing State has made sufficient preparations, we must completely annihilate the invading Ming army, dispatch 200,000 troops, encircle and suppress 100,000 Ming troops, this is the first time that the Great Qing State has done this, in terms of troops, occupy an absolute advantage.
