On 25 January, on Kowa Island, north of Phi Dao, a total of 3,000 soldiers of the Thunder Brigade and Guanglu landed and camped here, waiting for the order to attack......

There are several small desert islands such as Yamato Island, Xiaohe Island, and Gray Island in the north of Phi Island, in order to hide the traces, Yang Bo chose the small and small island in the middle, there are lush woods on the island, and there is also a little water source, which is suitable for setting up a large camp, and the most important thing is that unless there is a ship to go around to explore, it is very possible to find a sailor ambush here.

The golden shopkeeper took a few boats of grain to contact Shen Shikui, since the last time Tang Baocheng was bold enough to recommend himself, and persuaded Shen Shikui, the golden shopkeeper put away his contempt for this group of baby soldiers under the adult, it is rare that he dared to advocate that all the last grain was given to Shen Shikui in vain, and even patted his chest to promise that he would send more food over the next trip, the golden shopkeeper remembered that he was sweating profusely at the wine banquet at that time, and he didn't know how to explain when he went back, but before leaving, the little lady told him to listen to Tang Baocheng's dispatch, He couldn't refute it, but he didn't expect that the adults praised him a lot when he went back.

"The future of this son is limitless"

The golden shopkeeper sighed as he looked at the vague silhouette of the pirate. The adult's mind is changeable, and it is difficult for others to figure out his thoughts, this is already the consensus of everyone in Lushun, but I didn't expect this Tang Baocheng's approach to coincide with the adult's thinking, it seems that he will have to make more friends with this talent in the future, and the golden shopkeeper secretly made up his mind.

Three days later, Tang Baocheng came to Xiaohe Island with the fleet, and he finally met Yang Bo......

Yang Bo saw Tang Baocheng stunned slightly for a while before hesitating: "You are, it's the fourth phase of soup." Tang Baocheng? ”

Tang Baocheng was overjoyed and said loudly: "Student Tang Baocheng has seen adults, and the students were stubborn back then. Speaking wildly, Lord Domeng did not give up, and also encouraged gently, and the students changed their minds and graduated with the first place in the fourth phase, and were selected by Lord He to come to Phi Dao to serve as the captain of the action team. ”

After speaking, Tang Baocheng respectfully met with the courtesy of teachers and students. Only then did he raise his head, but Yang Bo's eyes were like electricity, and he was staring at him......

Although Yang Bo's warlord team has only just opened. But there are already many factions under his command, what Liaodong system, Dengzhou system, Santun system. Confidant. Foreign departments and so on, and Yang Bo's painstakingly set up military academy department has begun to emerge, one after another people from private schools began to serve as the chief officer of the middle and lower levels of the army, it is conceivable that the military academy department will be a monopoly in the future, this is Yang Bo in order to adapt to the current situation has to do, these students can be proud of their own teacher, but they must not show even a trace of identity, and it is necessary to exert appropriate suppression. The obvious counter-example is the Donglin Party, which said, "You dare to let me die in the Party." I'll let you die in the country", so the Ming Dynasty perished, it's as simple as that. Throughout the dynasties, the outcome without checks and balances is either the death of the party or the country, and there is no third way to go.

"Baocheng, since you have joined the army, you don't have to do the teacher-student ceremony in the future, remember!"

Yang Bo nodded and said, "Let's talk about business, what is the situation on the island?" ”

Tang Baocheng's heart moved slightly, lowered his eyes and nodded: "Yes, my lord"

“…… At present, Shen Shikui ordered people to build an ice wall with the corpses of Dongjiang soldiers and civilians at the ice floes, which temporarily delayed the offensive of the Tars, but the Tarnus could bypass the ice wall at any time, and the situation was still critical."

“…… The hearts of the people on Phi Island are fluctuating, they have little confidence in repelling the Tartar slaves, and they also have many complaints about the general soldier Shen Shikui, what is the merit of dedicating women, and there is no way to retreat from the Tartars, etc., rumors are everywhere, but according to the villain's temptation, the soldiers and civilians on the island are very close to my Thunder Brigade, mainly relying on the residual power of the previous three defeats of the Tatar slaves, plus many people take the initiative to promote various measures to resettle the displaced people for my Lushun, if it were not for the boatless to go to sea, these Phi Island soldiers and civilians have long wanted to flee to Lushun with their families, it can be said that although the adults have not been on the island, they have won the hearts of the people of Phi Island. ”

Tang Baocheng peeked at Yang Bo, Yang Bo's face was calm, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"However, my Thunder Brigade has a slight reputation, but most people have not seen with their own eyes how the Thunder Brigade kills the Tartars, so they are suspicious, as for those middle-level generals, they are also on the fence, there is not enough deterrence and benefits, and they can't let them take refuge sincerely, so I think that as long as this battle hits the Tartars hard, let Phi Dao see with his own eyes the power of my Thunder Brigade, a big thing can be done!"

Yang Bo asked again, "What other actions do the Tatar slaves have?" ”

Tang Baocheng shook his head helplessly and said: "All the ships on the island are detained, no one can enter and exit at will, the villain is also with the help of the golden shopkeeper to go to sea to report, the number of Tatar slaves on Phi Island is about 5,000 people, stationed in the southwest of Tieshan two miles, there are another 2,000 Tatar slaves in Xuanzhou in the east, and then there are Yizhou, the slave chief personally led the troops to burn and kill and plunder in the area of Yizhou. ”

Yang Bo nodded, presumably Haoge was ordered by Huang Taiji to loot in Korea to make up for the consumption of this dispatch, but Yizhou is only two or three days away from Iron Mountain, if you hit Iron Mountain, you will inevitably face the retaliation that comes from the Tatar slaves, which is a bit of a headache.

"What is the attitude of the North Korean side?" Yang Bo asked

"Or when the head of the turtle shrunk, neither dare not agree, nor actual action, the protest is constant, what strong, indignant, condemn, do not agree and other modifiers are used rotten, seven days of protest for five days, the remaining two days of rest, the villain is estimated that Li Chao is perfunctory on both sides with the method of dragging" Tang Baocheng analyzed.

Yang Bo laughed when he heard this, and Tang Baocheng said again: "The Tatar slaves have made two preparations, the Tatar slaves stationed in Xuanzhou have recently collected a group of craftsmen, and all of them have been driven to Shenmi Island to cut wood and build ships, and it seems that the situation is planning to raid Phi Island by boat from Shenmi Island. ”

Yang Bo shook his head and said: "That's an illusion, the landing is a technical job, except for our Thunder Brigade in this world, dare to talk about the landing easily?" The Tartar slaves along the way in Xuanzhou don't have to think about it. ”

Seeing Tang Baocheng's puzzled look, Yang Bo explained: "It is almost impossible to land on Phi Island, in addition to the interception and harassment of more than 100 ships on Phi Island, these landing Tar slaves also have to put the crazy counterattack of the soldiers on the island, and Phi Island is in a dead place, it can be imagined." The Tarslavs couldn't put three or five thousand soldiers and horses at a time, and they couldn't climb it at all, and they couldn't stand enough to climb it, unless they ......"

Tang Baocheng's eyes lit up. The interface said: "Unless, the sound is striking the west?" ”

Yang Bo nodded approvingly: "Unless the defensive focus of the defenders of Phi Dao is shifted away from him, he can implement the method of landing, after landing, the two sides will attack, and Phi Dao will be at your fingertips, but as long as the Tar slaves of Tieshan have not yet attacked, there is no need to worry about Xuanzhou's way." So it's enough for us to keep our eyes on Iron Mountain. ”

Tang Baocheng nodded, and Yang Bo asked again: "Where are the craftsmen who were captured by the Tatar slaves to build ships?" North Korean? ”

"Most of them are Han Chinese"

Tang Baocheng explained: "Tieshan, Xuanzhou, Yizhou and other places have the most Han people. It accounts for more than eighty percent of the local population, so the artisans who were captured were actually Han Chinese. ”

Yang Bo nodded, this group of craftsmen must be rescued, no matter where they are. Of course, Hermes-Epitek is even better. At least there is no need to be a general, and at the moment I listened to Tang Baocheng's report on the important generals on the island, as well as the situation of Zong Yuanfang, etc., from these details, it can be seen that Tang Baocheng's work is very good.

Yang Bo stared at Tang Baocheng's eyes and said: "In addition to monitoring the movements of local generals and Tatar slaves, you also have to develop a group of peripheral personnel from the Dongjiang River, and quickly spread some rumors on the island these days, such as the Thunder Brigade will come to the rescue of Phi Dao." What Thunder Brigade won a hundred battles, what Thunder Brigade soldiers fought ten Tartars at a time. It's okay to exaggerate, I'll send you a few more instructors and a team of veterans, and you will command the operation, and you can't let the overseer lose a single hair, I don't need to say more, right? ”

Seeing Tang Baocheng nodded, Yang Bo said again: "The most important one is that this battle is not only for the Dongjiang people, but also for the Koreans living on the island, the Jurchens who were bullied by the Tatar slaves, and the Mongols. ”

Seeing Yang Bo waving his hand, Tang Baocheng turned around and left with some regret, although the adult was very satisfied with his performance, and promised to give the action team the first credit after the end of the war, but he never mentioned Wang Xiaoqi even a word from beginning to end, Tang Baocheng knew that he was just leaving a preliminary impression on the adult, far from the point of being regarded as a confidant by the adult, it seems that he still needs to continue to work hard.

For several days in a row, Xiaohe Island was cold and windy, although there was a roaring bonfire around the camp, and there were charcoal basins for warmth, but Guanglu still had dozens of soldiers frostbitten, the main reason was that their clothes were much thinner than the soldiers of the Thunder Brigade, and there was no quilt to protect them from the cold, this is not the key, the key is that after a few days of severe cold, the speed of the sea freezing has greatly accelerated, and the decisive battle between the soldiers of Phi Island and the Tatar slaves will be staged in these days......

On the morning of 29 January, Liu Wenbing reported loudly outside the big tent, and when he came in, his face was a little solemn, and everyone knew that he was afraid that something big would be loud, so he sat up straight and listened.

Liu Bingwen took out a secret report: "My lord, the urgent report sent back by the task force temporarily, the Intelligence Department has completed the translation......

Yang Bo looked at the people in the big tent and said, "Read! ”

"Yes! According to the news of the investigation by the defenders of Phi Island, the Tatar camp was brightly lit yesterday, and a large number of Tatars came out of the camp as soon as possible, and this time it was poured out, and it was estimated that there were 1,500 infantry armor, 500 cavalry, and more than 800 auxiliaries, and because the sea surface was frozen, these Tatars could bypass the ice wall and land on Phi Island at any time, and it was reported that the Xuanzhou Tatars also corresponded, sending small boats to start luring the Phi Island sailors, and the sea chase battle lasted for a day, and the action team judged that the Tatars would launch a general attack on the 29th......

Yang Bo got up and walked to the map, looked at Tieshan carefully, and pointed to the sea between Tieshan and Phi Dao and said, "Our yellow finch should also be dispatched, now I order!" ”

Everyone present stood up, including Tan Yinghua and his two henchmen.

“…… Two companies of the Liaodong battalion were sent out to monitor the enemy in front of Tieshan after landing, remember, not a single Tartar is allowed to come out, and not a single Tartar is allowed to go out of the city for help! Is there confidence? ”

Hu Mazi raised his head and said loudly: "Yes, I promise not to let anyone go out of the city, otherwise the adults will only ask." ”

Yang Bo nodded and said: "The arquebus battalion and the two thousand soldiers of Guanglu are temporarily under the command of Li Dali, and after the Tatar slaves launch a general attack, we will cut them off and block them on the ice, Lao Tan, you have to mobilize the soldiers and tell them, just rest assured that the final result will not be disadvantaged to them." ”

Tan Yinghua said with a smile: "Don't worry, don't worry, those rabbit cubs will kill the enemy side by side with the guerrilla battalion." I don't know how high the morale is, it's strange to me, why did I look like I was wilting and dead before. However, although those cubs like to fight side by side with the guerrilla battalion, they don't like the arrogance of the guerrilla battalion.......

Tan Yinghua's two henchmen also laughed, obviously Tan Yinghua's words reached their hearts, and Yang Bo didn't have time to pay attention to Tan Yinghua's nagging. continued: "The sentry cavalry of each battalion is concentrated and used, led by Zhang Quan, the instructor of the Liaodong battalion, and is mainly responsible for monitoring Xuanzhou. The movements of the Tartar slaves in the Uiju area, especially the movements of the slave chiefs, were immediately reported. ”

Zhang Quan was in good spirits and received orders loudly.

"The water division is led by Han Qiaoshan. The purpose is twofold. First, to prevent a surprise attack by the Korean naval division, and to monitor all units of the Dongjiang naval division, not to allow a person or boat to leave the island, and second, to blockade the island and cut off the retreat of the Tatar slaves on the island, waiting for follow-up orders. ”

Han Qiaoshan asked confusedly: "My lord, Shenmi Island is about ten miles away from Xuanzhou. There is also a small island in the middle that connects to the coast, if the ice is frozen. How can a warship be blocked? ”

Yang Bo said helplessly: "The blockade of Shenmi Island is a false move, after the attack on Iron Mountain begins, the Tartars on Shenmi Island will definitely receive an urgent report, your task is to delay the pace of Tartar reinforcements, use the artillery on the warship to fire, it is best to blockade, if you can't blockade it, he will go, and then see if the situation can rescue those captured craftsmen......"

On the 29th of January, a large number of sailors returned to the designated landing site on Yamato Island, which was barren and poorly fed, and even drinking water was limited, not to mention any entertainment, and they would rather fight with the Tartars than stay in this ghost place for one more day.

Just when the yellow finches began to board the ship one after another, the praying mantis stationed in Iron Mountain also began to make intense pre-war preparations under the leadership of the right wing of the Jialazhang Jingnag, today is the time for them to launch a general attack, in this cold and frozen ghost place for more than a month, they are full of resentment, Nag is also helpless, the master and the banner lord Hushbu is enjoying the pleasure of the plundering in Yiju, and the heavy task of the tentative attack is thrown to him to command, he is very worried that he will not be able to complete the order and be liquidated by the master, You must know that the blue flag has been cleaned up and down several times by the master, and most of the old people have been replaced by the master's henchmen, although he is not a person from Manggutai, but the master will not mind vacating a position.

Thinking of this, Nag complained in his stomach that Dora Forehead Ying Ordai was really incompetent, and he had not been able to get a sailor in negotiations with North Korea many times, otherwise he would have killed all the Ming troops on Phi Island, hugged Nikan and beautiful women every night, and lived a good life of debauchery.

Some of the white fangs roared loudly in the ranks, scolding those who were not ready for the infantry armor, they had been in constant contact with the Ming army in the past few days, and all kinds of preparations before the battle were extremely skilled, and some armor soldiers were busy wrapping straw around their feet to avoid slipping during the ice battle, and there were also cavalry preparing for their war horses.

A busy hour passed quickly, with a long conch sound, Nag's Chinese army began to move slowly, in front of the neat military armor, behind five hundred horsemen in the distance followed, received the news that Nag was frozen on the ice, Haug sent someone to inform Nag, he will lead the team back to Iron Mountain in five days, in one fell swoop to break the defenders of Phi Island, before he returned, Haug strictly ordered Nag to keep the offensive, not to slack off, Nag had the heart to make meritorious service before the army turned around, so he decided to launch a general attack today, can occupy the best of Phi Island, If you can't occupy it, you have to cripple the defenders, and besides, the sea is unimpeded today, what else can Hangou do to stop himself?

Thinking of the smugness, Nag couldn't help but laugh, but at a glance at the ice wall made of corpses on the ice, Nag's good mood disappeared.

The people who were frozen in the ice were still in a miserable state of all kinds of pain, and at first glance they thought that they had come to the eighteenth layer of hell, and the infantry carefully looked at the corpses in the ice wall, pointing at the same time, and some of the infantry armor loudly announced their battle results.

At this moment, the vanguard suddenly made a noise and began to make contact with the people who were repairing the ice wall, and a small number of Ming troops and civilians screamed loudly, and quickly disappeared without a trace under the blow of the forward's infantry armor.

Nag raised his horsewhip and pointed at the ice wall and said to the left and right: "Nikan always says that I am cruel in the Qing Dynasty, you look at their treatment of their own people, compared to us, they are not too reckless, at least we can't treat the corpses of our warriors so cruelly, if Da Ming is not dead like this, it is really unreasonable." ”

A few Niu Lu nodded and said yes again and again.

The Ming army behind the ice wall did not have time to escape and were shot to death on the ground one by one, and a few of them finally escaped with rolling and slipping, although they were not killed, but Nag was not worried, and walked for half an hour, and there was a chaotic army lined up in front of them, these people were in rags, with simple wooden guns to climb plows, and even hoes, and behind them, there were many Ming troops pressing the formation, the only thing that was the same was that these people had an unyielding look in their eyes, because the ice was already solid, it was pointless to stick to the ice wall, They all retreated to the edge of the island, ready to deal the first blow to the Tarslavs on the ice.

Seeing the infantry slowly approaching, these people clenched their weapons with pale faces, and the sound of gongs in the formation was loud......

Nag laughed, and pointed at these people: "Look, let's drive Nikan to the front, they drive their own people to the front, in a vain attempt to block the footsteps of my Jianzhou warriors, and give orders, all of them will be killed."

A Niu Lu smiled and said: "The warriors will not show mercy to the Han dog, but these Nikans don't want it either?" Kill them all? ”

Nag nodded: "Kill them all, these Nikans have a blood feud with my Qing Dynasty warriors, and they fled here from all over Liaodong, and none of them can stay!" ”

The two sides fought dozens of games in a row, and their eyes were red for a long time, and with the sound of gongs and horns, the soldiers and people on both sides shouted and collided together......

Nag raised his hand and put it down again, the infantry went well, but the Ming army seemed to know that once the cavalry rushed onto the ice, the whole formation would collapse, so they blocked the shore and fought to the death, and soon, a large number of corpses were piled up on the coast, and Nag did not dare to use cavalry, and it was easy to break the horse's legs on the ice.

At this moment, a cannon suddenly rang out from behind, and countless shouts came, Nag was shocked, and turned his head to look behind him, but the ice was white and there was nothing to see!

A black shadow approached quickly, Nag looked carefully, it was a sentry horseman, he ran to a few hundred steps away from the Chinese army and jumped off his horse in a panic and slid directly over.

"Master, master! It's not a good thing, a Ming army has appeared behind us, and they are coming this way, they are very fast, the master, and the broken sentry cavalry have been scattered! Iron Mountain is also surrounded! ”

"What?"

The whip in Nag's hand fell on the ice with a click...... (To be continued......)
