The attack of the security army was not only Zhang Chu's team achieved results, but also several other groups of people also launched attacks on the tribe of the Houjin people, although this time did not kill more Houjin people, but the pressure on Huang Taiji was huge, the indiscriminate attack of the security army made all the tribes feel the pressure, no one knows, where the next attack is, who will fall on whose head. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The high-level officials of Houjin approached Huang Taiji and asked him to send troops to eliminate this sneak attacker, and Huang Taiji was annoyed by them, and repeatedly ordered the pursuit team to search hard, but still found nothing. It's not a way to go on like this, and it costs a lot to keep a team to clean up everywhere, and it's still fruitless, and gradually even the team of clean-up has complained.

Huang Taiji believed that in order to completely eradicate the enemy's attack, he could only eliminate the attack's behind-the-scenes supporter, Lushun's general soldier Huang Long.

After the victory of the Later Jin people in the Battle of Dalinghe City, Lushun had actually been cut off from the Ming army in Shanhaiguan, and the Ming army in Lushun could only rely on the advantage of the naval division to contact other Ming troops by sea.

In this critical situation, the general soldier Huang Long still worked hard to rectify the remnants of the soldiers and horses left by Mao Wenlong, and held on to Lushun and became a nail nailed to the rear of Houjin. This made it difficult for Huang Taiji to sleep.

Huang Taiji's determination to attack Lushun also had its strategic considerations. Eliminating the last strength of the Ming army in the northeast not only relieved the worries, but also completely severed the connection between Korea and the Ming Dynasty, using force to subdue Korea, plundering resources in Korea to strengthen itself, and then attacking the Ming Dynasty, then it was possible to enter the Central Plains.

But it was not an easy task to really attack Huanglong, who had been operating in Lushun for so many years and had established a solid defense system in Lushun.

Huang Long has now shrunk most of his forces to the mouth of Arthur, with the help of terrain and a strong city for defense, and there is also the "red-clothed cannon" that the Houjin people have the most headache on top of the city, and Huang Taiji never dared to take this thing lightly for his father's life.

Huang Taiji himself locked up in the room and thought about it repeatedly, and a complete battle plan was born.

Huang Taiji ordered the various tribes of Houjin to send men and horses to form a large army and prepare for the expedition. The morale of the Houjin people is high, and the opportunity for revenge has finally come. Soon 10,000 horses were assembled, and Huang Taiji ordered Belle Yuetuo to lead the army to take charge of the command.

Huang Taiji's attack order was issued, but this order surprised everyone, Huang Taiji did not order to attack Lushun but sent part of his men and horses to attack the mouth of the Yalu River, attacking the Koreans there, although the Koreans were forced to sign a brotherly alliance with the Houjin people, but they were still a little half-hearted about the Houjin, and the tribute negotiated by the two sides from the North Korea to the Houjin was never delivered on time and in quantity. That is giving a good excuse for the attack.

When the North Koreans saw that the Jin soldiers were killed, they immediately panicked, and they were not opponents and could only ask for help. The best reinforcements are only the former masters of North Korea, and the only ones who can directly rescue North Korea are Huanglong's men and horses in Lushun. The Korean messenger galloped all the way to Huanglong's place to report, and after Jin's soldiers and horses appeared at the mouth of the Yalu River, North Korea was attacked, and asked Huanglong to send troops to support.

After receiving the report, Huang Long immediately sent Shen Shikui, the deputy commander-in-chief, to lead the soldiers of the Navy Division to support. As a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court has always been in trouble to help.

Just when most of the Ming army in Lushun was sent to the mouth of the Yalu River to rescue the Korean army, Huang Taiji ordered Yue Tuo to personally lead the soldiers and horses to Lushun to capture Lushun and defeat Huanglong before the Ming army returned to help.

"Mr. Huang, how is this good, the Houjin people are calling." Huang Long's counselor and others were in a panic. The reason why these people who had been through the war were so nervous was because Yue Tuo's action this time was a big surprise to the Ming army.

Yue Tuo did not use the method of besieging the city with a large army and then attacking the city, but sent 500 cavalry to carry out a long-distance attack, these 500 people traveled day and night, and when the news of the Houjin attack had not yet reached Lushun, they suddenly appeared outside the city of Lushun, and occupied the commanding heights outside the city, such as the Golden Mountain, and resolutely stuck there.

"The Golden Mountain is the barrier of Lushun, and now it is in danger of being lost, due to the troops out of the mouth of the Yalu River, there are less than 2,000 men and horses left in Lushun City, if Houjin's brigade arrives at us, it will be dangerous. Please make a plan for your lordship. ”

"The Houjin people used their own red-coated cannons when they attacked Dalinghe City last year, if they transported the artillery to the city wall of Lushun, it would definitely not be able to withstand the bombardment, or retreat to the Shandong Peninsula when the Houjin people did not cut off our waterway, and save their strength for another battle."

The generals under Huang Long analyzed the current situation and found various reasons, but most of them had only one idea, and Lushun couldn't hold it, so he quickly thought of withdrawing.

Lushun is the key to connecting the Shandong Peninsula with the Dongjiang Islands further north, and there are still a large number of Ming soldiers and civilians on the Dongjiang Islands who insist on resisting Houjin. As soon as Lushun loses the Dongjiang Islands, it will become isolated and helpless, and more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians will be in danger.

The generals under Huanglong were silent, of course they understood the current situation very well, but the repeated defeats of the Ming army and the Houjin in the past few years have seriously hit the confidence of the generals, and they have no courage to fight to the death with the Houjin people from top to bottom.

"The matter of eating the king and ending the king, we have enjoyed the favor of the imperial court for many years as officials. Now is the time to repay the Holy One. I, Huanglong, will not leave Lushun even if I die. Huang Long raised his voice and spoke loudly to his subordinate generals, because he had had his ears and nose cut off by the rebellious generals, he spoke in a strange voice and his face was also very hideous.

Huang Long's generals saw that the main general had made up his mind, so he didn't say anything anymore. They also knew that they would be punished by the imperial court if they did not order to return to Shandong without permission, and they only hoped that if Huanglong was afraid of everyone and fled together, the emperor would not be responsible for the public, and there might be a way to live. Since Huang Long didn't leave, everyone had to find a way to defend the city.

"Send someone to inform Shen Shikui, the deputy commander-in-chief, to return to Lushun immediately, and at the same time send someone to Shandong to ask for help, to see if they can send troops over." Huang Long did not have much hope for Shandong's reinforcements, Kong Youde and others' rebellion had just been quelled, Kong Youde not only plundered all the warships in Dengzhou, but also used treacherous tricks to lure the Ming army sailors in Tianjin to Dengzhou, captured all the soldiers and warships, and finally took people out to sea without a trace. As a result, there are almost no sailors in the Bohai Sea who can come to the rescue of Lushun. Due to Zhang Chu's demand that the actions of the security forces in Liaodong be kept strictly secret, Huang Long was unaware of the existence of the small army of the security forces. I don't know that it was this army that prompted Huang Taiji to make up his mind to attack Lushun.

"The generals performed their duties to defend the city of Arthur and mobilized the people in the city to go to the city together. I led a part of the brave men to take advantage of the enemy's unstable foothold to counterattack the Golden Mountain. "Huang Long decided to take a risk to see if the situation could be reversed.
