Dolgon's brows were furrowed, as if he was very reluctant to believe the fact that the Great Khan, oh no, the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" admired by Emperor Huang Taiji is really "dry goods"!

Dolgon's heart was full of 10,000 grass and mud horses, and he decided that no matter what, after destroying the Korean state and returning to Shenyang this time, he must devote himself to studying the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and must not be as arrogant as those brainless Jurchen nobles.

……

Sanli north of Cheongju is a plain called Gwangluwon, and Zhang Li learned from a Korean translator that sika deer appear in this place from time to time, hence this name.

On the Guanglu Plain, the officers and men of the 30,000 regiments of the mountain army are divided into three armies, left, middle and right, and they are arrayed here.

On the left is 10,000 people led by Pan Batian, the chief military officer of Ningyuan, on the right is 10,000 soldiers under the command of Gao Yuanliang, the governor of Liaodong, and on the middle road, Zhang Li is directly under the central government. Of course, these official positions have nothing to do with a Yongle Tongbao in the imperial court, but are directly granted by Zhang Li.

The cavalry under the command of Chaolu was located behind the central formation, ready to receive the attack order from Zhang Li.

Zhang Li still found a place with a wide field of vision, sat upright on the marching bench, and quietly waited for the arrival of the Qing army.

Both sides had previously sent a large number of scouts to deal with the void and reality, so now that the Tuanshan army was waiting here, the Tartars must have known about it. Similarly, the march route, situation, and tension of the 70,000-strong army of Dorgon and Dordo are also well understood.

Zhang Zhang couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart, if I remember correctly, this is the first dignified head-to-head duel of the Tuanshan Army - the Tuanshan Army, can it win?

The regimental mountain army under the command of Zhang Li fought before, except for the siege and defense of the city. In the field against Jiannu, one kind of strategy will always be used. In the past, the Tartars did not pay enough attention to the Tuanshan Army. is also intoxicated with the superstition that "the Jurchens are not ten thousand, and they are invincible". Therefore, he was repeatedly defeated by the Tuanshan army.

However, the situation is different now -- as the saying goes, "eating a trench grows wisdom", even if it is a pig, after suffering so many regiments of mountain troops, it will learn to be smart.

For example, this time Dolgon's disposition actually formed a circle to defend the cavalry of the mountain army and raided it, which clearly did not seek merit, but sought no fault. Without complete certainty of the location of the main force of the Tuanshan Army, how could he come easily?

Next to Zhang Li stood a very young player, also dressed neatly. There is a faint hint of heroism in his eyebrows - he is Li Dingguo, who is tempered by his side.

Zhang Zhang glanced at Li Dingguo, who was a little nervous, and said lightly: "Dingguo, you remember, from now on, I'm afraid that there will be more frontal battles, you have to pay more attention." Didn't I often give you an analysis of the principle of 'winning with the right and winning with the odd'? This 'positive' word is the main theme in the future. If the regular soldier cannot withstand the onslaught of the enemy. So many so-called miracle soldiers are useless! ”

Li Dingguo's expression was dazed, and he responded respectfully: "My subordinates understand." ”

Zhang Li bowed slightly, no longer talking to him, but set his eyes in the direction where the Qing army in the north was coming.

On the Hiroshi Plain. The 30,000 regiments of mountain troops were silent, and every soldier had a solemn face, but not one of them showed a look of timidity--the soldiers who went to fight in Korea this time were all selected. Some are even old people who have fought the first battle of tension in the "Battle of Shallow Rock Beach", and it has been three years since then. Therefore, the military literacy is quite high.

Nervousness, even some suffocating tension, filled the entire regimental mountain army's formation. Some enlisted a little later in the army. The hands holding the self-generated fire gun were all covered with sweat. The long-term training has made these soldiers known to everyone, and everyone knows that the nervousness of battle is a human nature, but it must not be expressed. Once a military order is issued from above, even if there is a sea of swords and fires in front of it, it must be indomitable.

"Gotta got-" A hurried sound of horses' hooves reached the ears of the 35,000 regiments of the mountain army in Guangluyuan, but no one looked sideways; The fast horse galloped directly towards the Chinese army, and finally stopped in front of Zhang Li.

A scout turned over and dismounted, shouting loudly: "Lord Qiyu, the Qing army is now seven miles away from Guangluyuan!" The number of people has not changed, it is exactly 70,000! ”

Zhang Zhang nodded and said in a deep voice, "I know." You inform Yesheng and ask him to find out the news again, especially if the enemy has divided his troops, and it must be implemented until they appear in my eyes! ”

"Order! The scout said yes, and then flew on his horse again, and disappeared like a gust of wind.

This went back and forth several times, and the scouts of the Tuanshan Army always reported the situation of the Qing army to Zhang Li in a timely manner, until the army of Dorgon and Duoduo finally appeared in Zhang Li's sight.

At a distance of about two miles from the place where the Guangluyuan Tuanshan army was arrayed, the Qing army stopped. This distance is beyond the effective range of the artillery, and it can be seen that Dolgon is also very careful, for fear that the formation of the regimental mountain army is fake, and the artillery bombardment is real, so he also seems to be cautious.

The 35,000 soldiers of the Tuanshan Army remained silent, as if they had not seen the enemy appear at all. The Qing army did not storm as soon as they came up, and they also began to line up, opening the posture of a decisive battle.

Zhang Li's eyes narrowed slightly, and he was silent, and he was like an ordinary soldier of the Tuanshan Army, as if he didn't see the enemy.

After all, Li Dingguo was younger, he really couldn't hold back his nervousness, and after glancing at Zhang Li, he asked in a low voice: "Master Zhang, the enemy is forming a formation, and the formation is scattered, are we ......?"

Zhang Zhang turned his head and glanced at Li Dingguo meaningfully, and a smile appeared on his expressionless face before—or rather, a kind of confidence: "Dingguo, you must also know that after the Qing army was repeatedly defeated by our Tuanshan army, it also bought firearms on a large scale. The number of mines, firearms, and artillery in their hands is no less than ours. ”

Li Dingguo nodded and agreed: "Indeed, as the adults said, the Tartars are now vigorously popularizing firearms, I'm afraid it will be more difficult to deal with than before?" ”

Man, after all, is an advanced creature, and his ability to learn is very powerful. Zhang Li has some brainless views on the future generations, such as firearms crushing everything, and it is very uninteresting to eat all over the world with one move, and it is estimated that those people think that Tartar is a pig, not a person. Only pigs sleep forever and eat, eat and sleep, and don't think about anything, just waiting to be stabbed......

If it were people, they would definitely do everything possible to find a way to regain their disadvantage, racking their brains to think about how to defeat their opponents -- Zhang Li has mainly been "cultivating internal strength" in the past year, but he has also attached great importance to all kinds of information on Shenyang. Hong Chengchou colluded with Zheng Zhihu to find Westerners to buy firearms, and Zhang Zhang even knew roughly the specific amount of each transaction. Those Westerners who sell firearms only recognize money in their eyes. Through massive imports, the quality and quantity of Tatar firearms have been greatly improved in the past year, which has indeed brought great pressure to tension. (To be continued.) )
