Wang Jue is in the car, honest like a lovely child at this moment. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoYang Zizhen knew that the other party was obviously pretending to be pitiful, but he still didn't say anything more. On the one hand, it is because this Wang Jue's current identity is too noble, and it can even be said that he is powerful, and on the other hand, this young child has wisdom that even he admires.

Outside the window, the captives of the Kingdom of Jin were dressed in rags, looking curiously at the cars and tanks that rumbled past them. They were ten times more than these passing Ming troops, but they had long since lost the heart of resistance, and the Jin State had increased taxes year after year under the pressure of the Ming Empire, and the locals had also weakened their previous desire to follow and serve.

After repeated failures, these captives have all seen or heard about the power of the Ming army's tanks, and now they are full of fear when they see these assault guns and tanks driving in front of their eyes. Not to mention just letting them get out of the way, even if the other party really opened fire and killed the prisoners, these already courageous Jin soldiers only dared to turn around and escape, and they couldn't afford to resist at all.

However, these prisoners and refugees who were crowded on the roads and fighting with the Ming army did affect the speed of the Ming army's advance. Wang Jue was bent on going to the front line of Xintaizi to personally inspect the attack of the Praetorian Guards, but now his advance speed has slowed down significantly, which makes Wang Jue feel a little anxious.

Yang Zizhen didn't care, he wished that Wang Jue would slow down, wait for the battle on the front line, and then let Wang Jue pass. But seeing that the car kept moving forward, he knew that even if the speed was slow, he would be able to reach the new platform before dark.

"In this way, we can't lead our troops to rush to Qingshuitai before dark." Wang Jue took out his pocket watch from his arms, looked at the time, and then said to Yang Zizhen: "Tanks can't fight at night, and our army really needs to be careful to guard against the Jin army counterattacking at night...... So be it! Let the Signal Cavalry go to the front line to deliver a message, let them start arming on the spot, we will go and strengthen their defensive line, wait for one night, and then make plans! ”

It's not that Wang Jue doesn't want to continue the attack, but in terms of time, if he continues to risk attacking in the direction of Mukden now, it will be easy for the Jin army to counterattack. In the night battle, the equipment advantage of the Ming army could not be brought into play, and the Jin army, which was superior in numbers, could only take advantage of it.

Wang Jue is sometimes very adventurous, and his mind is full of all kinds of strange ideas. However, this does not mean that he blindly goes off the rails, nor does it mean that he likes gambler-style decision-making. On the contrary, he repeatedly warned Yang Zizhen that if conditions permit, he must be cautious and meticulous in drawing up a battle plan -- how does Sun Tzu say a saying in the Art of War? With the right fit, with the odd win.

Just when Wang Jue rushed to the front line with great difficulty, found that it was too difficult to advance, and was about to abandon the attack posture of the day and turn to the defense, the other troops of the Ming army were still desperately attacking forward according to the "Iron Cutter Plan". These Ming troops advanced at an unprecedented high speed, dividing and surrounding the Jin army along the road and railway, and annihilating them one by one.

First of all, it was Ye Hehaolan, the prime minister of the Jin State who resisted stubbornly in Tieling City, this old man stubbornly gave up the opportunity to surrender and led his troops to fight to the death against the Ming army that surrounded him. There were less than 500 soldiers left around him, and they were not dispersed in the street fighting, and they were surrounded by the Ming army, and soon this army was completely annihilated.

When the soldiers of the Ming army rushed into the county office where Yehehaolan was located, he sat in the office of the chief of the county office, and did not commit suicide or escape. The prime minister of the Jin State, who instigated his subordinates to shed the last drop of blood for the Jin State, gave up his plan to commit suicide at the last moment, and became a prisoner of the new army of the Ming Empire in this way.

So in the midst of jubilation, the new army formed by Wang Jue broke the record of the rank of the enemy they captured: they captured the highest rank of the enemy army since they formed the army, the so-called prime minister of the rebels.

In contrast, the 2nd Armored Division of the New Army, which attacked in the direction of Kaiyuan, had nothing to show off. Along the way, they did not encounter any resistance from the Jin army at all, and they did not even collide with the regimental-sized defenders, so they directly rushed into Kaiyuan City with the speed of marching. At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the vanguard troops of the 2nd Panzer Division were already stationed in Kaiyuan City, and for the first time in decades, Kaiyuan City raised the imperial flag symbolizing the Ming Dynasty.

Because the speed of the Ming army's capture of Kaiyuan was so fast that the defenders of the Jin State in the upper reaches of the Liaohe defense line had not yet reacted accordingly at this time. They were cut off by the Ming army in Qingyunbao and Tongjiangkou, and they knew that they could not get out, so they directly chose to surrender......

Therefore, although the 2nd Panzer Division did not capture Dayu like the troops attacking Tieling, it set a record for the largest number of enemy soldiers captured by the Ming army in a single time since the beginning of the war - a full 90,000 Jin troops surrendered to them, and this number swelled to 110,000 a day later.

Of course, in Wang Jue's original plan, that is, in the iron tong plan, the main direction of attack of the Ming army was not to the east or north, but to the south and detour to Mukden. Zhu Mu asked him to recapture Fengtian, which was the core goal of the entire operation, as for the destruction of the Jin State...... Wang Jue thought that it was just an additional part of the benefits after retaking Fengtian City.

At this time, the sad Ye Hehao was busy for a whole day, and returned to the city of Fengtian City with a disgraced face...... The poor Emperor of Jin found himself busy all day going back and forth, but in reality he had not accomplished anything...... He transferred the main force of the Jin State back to the north of Mukden, and then just walked north to Qingshuitai, and was forced to cancel his plan and return to Mukden by the same route—on this day, his command did nothing but waste the morale of his troops back and forth.

However, after a delay of almost a full day, Yehe Haolian finally came up with his own decision-he was determined to fight a sluggish campaign in Mukden to cover the detour of his main army to Jilin. Give up the great rivers and mountains that have been in your hands, and escape back to the white mountains and black waters of the Xing'an Mountains, just like the ancestors many years ago, and compete with the Ming Empire for endurance!

He is confident that as long as he survives twenty years, the emperor and ministers of the Ming Empire will be replaced, and they will degenerate into the original state of old dragons and bells, and become pedantic fools who can be slaughtered by others. (To be continued.) )
