Attack Dongjiang Town, repel Dongjiang Town's offensive in Phoenix City and Xiuyan, flank and detour Dengzhou's right flank, threaten Jinzhou, or surround the Dengzhou army in Gaizhou, or at least force Dengzhou to withdraw

Shenyang Chengbei School Field, under the stage is three thousand mixed clothes Wuzhen Chaoha, the Houjin Army does not have enough cloth to make the military uniforms of each flag, only the color of the flag can be distinguished. On the high platform, Huang Taiji's yellow tassel umbrella is very eye-catching. Huang Taiji has been blessed, the original angular face has become rounded, only the gaze is still firm, even if Houjin's current situation is very difficult.

The political influence of the killing of Mang Gurtai in the Battle of Xuanda last year slowly became apparent, especially in the two Mongol tribes of Karaqin and Tumut. The Battle of Lushun the year before broke the military prestige that Hou Jin had built up with great difficulty, and the Outer Mongols participated in the whole process and suffered heavy losses. As the remnants returned to the steppe tribes, Houjin's reputation continued to fall. The battle of Xuanda had a good start and harvest, and the Mongols' confidence was restored, but the Dengzhou dragoons who suddenly appeared killed Mang Gurtai and immediately removed half of Huang Taiji's victory.

The Mongols didn't care whether Mang Gurtai dealt with Huang Taiji or not, they only knew that it was a big Beile of the Later Jin Dynasty who was killed by the Dengzhou soldiers, and the head was still displayed outside Zhangjiakou for several years. With the spread of the news, many Mongolians were not optimistic about Houjin, and among the Mongolians who had taken refuge in Houjin, some people continued to flee, including hundreds of people at one time.

At the end of each year, when the usual pilgrimage is held, thirty percent of the Mongol tribes do not come, mainly in Karaqin and Tumut, and even the most loyal Korqin only comes to Taiji, which is usually half of the usual.

North Korea is not to mention, since Dengzhou Town settled in southern Liaoning, it began to continue to aid Dongjiang Town military equipment, Dongjiang Town relieved its breath, and restored Zhenjiang, Tieshan and other places, Tieshan area began to Tuntian again, although the number of people is small, but the armor has been improved, Huang Taiji estimates that there is about fifty percent of the strength of Mao Wenlong's era. With the protection of Donggang Town, North Korea has reverted to its old ways, and Li Chaozhong was originally in the majority of the pro-Ming faction, although he did not officially turn his face with the Houjin, but he has turned a blind eye to the several Houjin envoys who stayed in North Korea.

The attitude of the soldiers and horses of Liaozhen in western Liaoning is also changing, Wu Xiang and You Shiwei were not effective in Xuanda last year, but in the end, they relied on Song Wenxian's head to get by, and they still lived in their original positions. Although Huang Taiji had hostages such as Zu Zerun and Zu Kefa in his hands, Zu Dashou no longer replied to Huang Taiji's letters.

The external conditions are unfavorable, and the internal is also not straightened out, although Huang Taiji has removed the biggest obstacle Mang Gurtai, but the defects in the battle record make his prestige far less than the original history, and the interior seems to be peaceful, but in fact it is full of dangers. Last year, Dengzhou Town attacked Gaizhou twice under the power of Lushun, so that most of the cantonments between Gaizhou and Yaozhou were destroyed, and the permanent people and horses inlaid with white flags lost Yan zhòng, and when the two agricultural seasons were busy in the autumn and autumn, Houjin was forced to mobilize to deal with the harassment of Dengzhou, which aggravated the impact of drought and flood disasters on the harvest.

Under the internal and external troubles, Huang Taiji also has a feeling that it is difficult to parry, and the most hateful thing is that the cavalry of Dengzhou Town is growing step by step, the horses are all from Karaqin and Tumut, and the Guan Ning army also plays the role of an intermediary in the middle. These cavalry made Dengzhou Town's tactics of Gaizhou more flexible, and the autumn offensive in the second half of the year reflected this, although Houjin sent 5,000 cavalry, but also only destroyed a few Dengzhou fortresses closest to Yulin Fort, and did not dare to continue to go deeper, so that Dengzhou Town stood firm in Fuzhou This support point, with Fuzhou as a stronghold, the front line of Dengzhou Town advanced more than 100 miles, and the main force of Houjin did not dare to stay away from Liaodong. Seeing that the civilization of Liaohai is imminent, Dengzhou Town will definitely go on the offensive again to destroy the lip cultivation of Gaizhou.

Huang Taiji's eyes turned to Yue Tuo next to him, this military department Shangshu refused to kill his own Fu Jin, he had already committed Huang Taiji's taboo, but this was not the time to move him, Dai Shan officially asked not to sit with the Great Khan a year ago, and served Huang Taiji as the lord of Houjin, Huang Taiji also gave corresponding compensation, Sakhalian appointed the new Wuzhen Chao Hagu Mountain Ezhen, and Yue Tuo could only continue to be in the position of the military department Shangshu.

"Yue Tobel." Huang Taiji said lightly, "Liaodong has opened its lips, and Liaohai has also dissolved, do you think Dengzhou Town opposite will come to Gaizhou again?" ”

Yue Tuo turned around and said, "Back to the Great Khan, the slave thought that Dengzhou Town would come." According to their style in previous years, when they were in Jinzhou, they sent troops to attack Fuzhou in the lip season, and after occupying Fuzhou, they attacked Gaizhou in the autumn and autumn when the farmers were busy. From this, the minions deduced that after opening their lips, Dengzhou Town would definitely come to Gaizhou, and they would also capture Xiuyan, Phoenix and other places again. ”

Huang Taiji narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Then you are the secretary of the military department, what are your countermeasures?" ”

Yue Tuo raised his spirit in his heart, Huang Taiji asked him the opinion of the military department secretary in front of many Baylor at this time, he had to deal with it very carefully, Huang Taiji also understood his thoughts, as long as he showed any flaws, he would be punished by Huang Taiji for high-sounding reasons. But he still decided to speak his heart, otherwise Houjin couldn't afford such consumption.

"The slave thinks that Dengzhou Town is here to force our army to gather, waste food and salary in Gaizhou and other places, and the clothing used cannot participate in lip cultivation, and it must be like last autumn, pull Dongjiang Island Kou with him, and use Dongjiang Town to attack Xiuyan to Hetuala and other places, so that our army cannot gather."

Huang Taiji said lightly: "You said your countermeasures." ”

Yue Tuo paused before saying: "The slave thinks that Nikan must be like last autumn, the soldiers must come in different ways, and their soldiers should be in the third or fourth way, like the palm of a person's hand, and each road echoes each other, trying to make my Dajin overwhelmed. However, there are advantages and disadvantages, because of its vast territory, the mountains and rivers are blocked, if I intercept it with elite white armor scouts, the news will not make sense. The countermeasures of the minions, when following the old Khan's plan in Salhu, no matter how many ways you come, I will only go all the way, and attack all the way, then the rest will not be echoed, and it will inevitably disappear. ”

Huang Taiji nodded in his heart, Yue Tuo's strategy was not far from what he thought, Houjin could not afford to bloom in full bloom, so he could only gather and scatter and attack all the way, even if there were losses in the other roads, it could also boost the morale of the army.

"What does Yue Tobel mean, which way is it better to fight?"

Yue Tuo knew that Huang Taiji had already taken countermeasures, but at this time, he repeatedly wanted to force himself to say that he would share the responsibility on his head, but as the secretary of the military department, it was difficult for him to shirk it.

"Back to the Great Khan, defend the west road, and attack the east road."

Huang Taiji frowned and said: "The west road is Gaizhou, but Gaizhou is the strongest road, when the old Khan broke the strongest juniper first, and then the others, why did Yue Tuobeile do the opposite?" ”

Yue Tuo licked his lips and said in a low voice: "Because the situation is different, because my army may not be able to eat the people of Dengzhou Town on the West Road in one bite, Dengzhou Town has Fuzhou as a stronghold, nearly ten military forts along the way, and it is only one hundred and eighty miles away from Gaizhou. If its army comes, there will be infantry garrisons along the military fort along the way, and it will be difficult to rush down, and its cavalry and dragoons, nearly 3,000 people, relying on its military fort to attack, will again fall into a long delay. On the other hand, the East Road, Xiuyan and Phoenix City were broken by our army in winter, from the coast to Lianshan Pass, Samaji Fort, Laozhai along the way deserted, Dongjiang Town came from this, it is not possible to fight for a long time, its combat power is far from being comparable with our armor soldiers, when it can be broken in a battle, our army immediately stationed in Xiuyan, along Xiuyan to the east side of Jinzhou, then the Dengzhou soldiers are unstable on the flank, so they can only retreat to Fuzhou. My Daikin can get half a year to recuperate. ”

Huang Taiji lowered his head and thought for a long time, and then looked at Dai Shan beside him, although Dai Shan had given up his position of sitting together, Huang Taiji still gave him preferential treatment, that is, to exempt his subordinates.

"Second brother, do you think what Yue Tobel said is feasible?"

Dai Shan bowed slightly, "The Great Khan is wise and wise, and he can be arbitrary." I'm old, and I don't understand these things too well. ”

Huang Taiji sneered in his heart, Dai Shan was still the same as before, and Huang Taiji forced him to make a statement, just to prevent him from settling accounts later. Fortunately, what Yue Tuo said is basically the same as his strategy, so there is no need to worry about making a big mistake because of a small one.

"Since the second brother has no objection, then Yue Tobel will talk about how to defend the west and the east."

Dai Shan gave Yue Tuo a look, and Yue Tuo also saw it, Dai Shan's meaning was to let him be as vague as possible and not to take all the responsibility on himself. Yue Tuo was entangled in his heart for a moment, then raised his head and said to Huang Taiji: "If you defend the west, you need to endure the loss of the tuntian near Gaizhou that cannot be cultivated, and enter Gaizhou with thousands of cavalry and thousands of Wuzhen Chaoha, and fight against guerrilla battles. In addition, one was deployed to defend Yaozhou Haizhou, and Dengzhou was lightly ridden into the land of Liaozhong. In the east, the elite will be gathered and hidden in one place......"......

On the opposite shore of Shicheng Island in Liaohai, there is a dangerous place, which is where the Yellow Bone Island Fort is located, since the fall of Liaodong, Dongjiang Town and Houjin have repeatedly fought here and changed hands many times. Since Dengzhou Town entered southern Liaoning, Houjin was expelled from here. Later, it was occupied by the Shang Kexi Department of Shicheng Island.

At this time, on the Liao Sea outside the Yellow Bone Island Fort, sailboats were all over the sea, and countless red figures came ashore from the port, converging into small rectangular squares on the shore, and then came in the direction of the Yellow Bone Island Fort.

Zhong Laosi stood in this place that he had seen countless times on the map, and he didn't feel a little excited, after two years, he came to this place in Liaodong again, and fought against the strongest Jiannu, which made him feel excited.

The 2nd Guards Battalion rested in Jinzhou for two years, and then went north by boat again, and after landing and resting at Huanggudao Fort, it would advance to Xiuyan, saving most of the distance. According to the plan, they will launch ahead of Gaizhou, attract Jiannu troops to deploy to the east, and then attack Gaizhou by the Liaonan Brigade on the west road.

"Lord Zhong, the deputy chief soldier of Dongjiang Town is here." A calming officer came from the direction of the Yellow Bone Island Fort and reported to Zhong Laosi.

"It's still gratifying, they are all deputy commanders, but Lao Tzu is also a deputy commander-in-chief." Zhong Laosi waved his hand, "Let's go, go meet this miner." ”
