Large-scale recruitment of such troops whose combat effectiveness is so weak that it is outrageous, Jin Guo is really planning to fight against the water. Theoretically www.biquge.info, as long as they prevent the army of the Ming Empire from crossing the Liao River this time, then these "soldiers" who were temporarily recruited can be disarmed and returned to the field.

In the face of the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Ming Empire in Liaodong, the entire Jin State had to mobilize the whole country after successive defeats, which was another reason why they were in a hurry to end the war: they were even more inexpensive than the Ming Empire, and there were no reserves worth expending.

The distance from Tieling to Mukden is only a little more than 73 kilometers, which is obviously not far. What made the Jin troops even more depressed was that at this distance, the only line of defense was the fortress area arranged by the Jin State for Mukden back then, but unfortunately this fortress area was aimed at the direction of Mukden, not the direction of Tieling.

Most of the firing positions and pillboxes were facing Mukden, and this line of defense was now used to fight against the Ming army killed from the direction of Tieling, which was obviously powerless or powerless. Ye Hehao Lianxian had just arrived at this defensive line when he had already heard the news that the Ming army had attacked the empty waist fort.

At this moment, the reconnaissance team reported to the Emperor of the Kingdom of Jin the latest information that drove him crazy: "Your Majesty! The Ming armored units were moving south along the paralyzed railway line, and their reconnaissance troops had already crossed the new platform......"

Hearing this news, Ye Hehao shook his head, he barely stood firm, stared at the few generals and ministers who followed, and asked coldly: "Now that the troops of the Ming army are advancing in the direction of Fengtian, what is the best way for you to repel this Ming army and recapture the road to Tieling in the north?" ”

Hearing Ye Hehaolian's question, several generals and ministers looked like dirt, although they were all people who had experienced war, but the war now is not what they knew back then. If it had been two years ago, it would have been estimated that they would have knelt down and asked for battle at this moment, but now when they have to face the tank units of the Ming army, no one dares to guarantee that they will be able to win - it is already a very reluctant thing to ensure that they can come back alive.

The main force of the Jin State that has been assembled now has about 20,000 cavalry, as well as more than 2,000 Jurchen descendants of the Yellow Banner, plus the miscellaneous subordinate troops that followed, the number is about 30,000. On the opposite side of them, the armored forces of the Ming army moving south were part of the 1st Armored Division of the Praetorian Guard, numbering about 7,000.

Just looking at the numbers on paper, even the Jin State troops still have an absolute advantage, but the generals and ministers present shrank their heads one by one, and there was no one to deal with Ye He Haolian. Looking at his unsuccessful subordinates, Ye Hehao snorted coldly, with a gloomy expression, like a beast ready to break out and hurt people at any time.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... In the opinion of the minister, it is better to move the troops to Fushun Fortress......" Finally, an old minister stepped forward and spoke to admonish a choice that made Ye He Haolian even more angry. It's just a year ago that the Jin Kingdom was full of civil and military affairs, and when they mentioned the Ming Dynasty, they all had a sense of disdain and superiority. But I don't know when it started, these ministers who thought that the Ming Empire was weak and could be bullied a year ago, and even Liaodong "can be further planned", mentioned that the Ming army subconsciously thought of retreating and fleeing.

In Tieling, the generals who advised Yehehaolan were like this, and at Qingshuitai, they advised Yehehaolian to retreat...... These generals and ministers of the Jin State have been frightened by the new army of the Ming army, just like the Eight Banners army of Jin Nuerhachi was frightened by the musket team of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

"Can't be returned! I retreat, what should Fengtian do? What to do with Liaoyang? What should Anshan do? Biting the tip of his tongue with his teeth, he suppressed the urge to burst out and kill, Ye Hehao muttered in his mouth, but he still didn't know what he should do.

If he ordered a counterattack, even if these soldiers with no fighting spirit carried out the order to counterattack, they might not be able to crush the Ming army - at that time, half of the field troops of the Jin Kingdom outside Fengtian City were defeated by the Ming army, and the situation was really completely eroded into an uncontrollable state.

However, he did not dare to give the order to hold on, because seeing that there was no suitable defensive position nearby, and even if he hastily retreated to the Pu River, the small river would not be able to stop the advance of the Ming army—in fact, the result was almost predictable, and his troops would be completely annihilated by the Ming army in the field.

Now there are not many options left, one is to really escape to Fushun with his tail between his legs, which is also a chance for Yehe Haolan to desperately fight for Jin Guo to survive. However, Ye He Haolian felt ashamed of this choice, and he was even more reluctant to leave behind the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians of the Jin Kingdom. If these family resources are easily discarded, then the Jin State will degenerate from a so-called country into a guerrilla army overnight.

Another option was to quickly pack up the nearby troops and retreat to Mukden. However, this is only a choice to ensure that he will not be annihilated for the time being. If the Ming army drove straight into Tieling, Fushun and other places, eventually the main force of the Jin State would be surrounded in the plains. For the profound Ming army, this is almost no different from the total annihilation of the main force of the Jin State, and the rest of the matter is simpler, because at that time, the so-called Jin State no longer exists.

This is a difficult choice question, from the time when the Ming army crossed the Liao River, and the Jin army was powerless to stop it, how the situation in Liaodong was already doomed. No matter what choice is made now, the fate of the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Jin State on the Liaodong Plain is no longer optimistic.

While His Majesty the Emperor of the Jin State, Ye Hehao Lian, was very entangled, the Prime Minister of the Jin State, Ye Hehaolan, had already retreated to Tieling City with his own soldiers. However, with his troops entering the city, it was the cavalry units of the Ming army that were anxious to expand the defensive positions of crossing the river. These cavalry replaced the more elite 1st Panzer Division, which had been expected to attack Iron Ridge, but they were not at all slow in their attack and were more numerically suited to street fighting.

These Ming cavalry quickly occupied most of the streets of Tieling, and in only a short time, they surrounded hundreds of people from the Jin State in the "County Ya", the former administrative organ of the Jin State in Tieling. The scale of the county government was not large, and together with several warehouses and other yamen next to it, the Jin army formed a small defensive position, trying to make a last stubborn resistance with the help of the high-walled compounds in these places. Unfortunately, to Yehharan's despair, this was a far cry from his idea of delaying time. (To be continued.) )
