The weather in May in western Liaoning has begun to get hot, especially at noon, the sun is scorching, and the city wall of Ningyuan, the Xiongcheng of Liaodong, is hot by the sun, but at this time, the Ming army of Liaodong Town, which is standing on the city wall, does not care about these, they look nervously for miles away, so many people do not have many noisy voices for a while.

The upper tower of the gate tower of the north gate of Ningyuan is not tall, his face is dark and cold, and Yuan Chenghuan, the governor of Liaodong of the Ming Dynasty who is draped all over his body, looks at the Jiannu brigade opposite with a telescope in his hand.

The sweat on Yuan Chenghuan's face continued to seep out, after all, it was a crime to wear his whole body on a hot day, but his heart was cold.

A few miles away, the Jiannu Great Array is unfurled, the Eight Banners are mixed, the soldiers are strong and strong, and in the telescope, the fierceness of the Eight Banners is clearly visible.

In the distance, the yellow dragon flag fluttered, indicating that the emperor Taiji, the lord of the Dajin Kingdom, drove the expedition in person and came to Ningyuan in person.

Yuan Chenghuan frowned deeply, although Jiannu said that the attack under Jinzhou City was lost a few days ago, but more than a dozen castles such as the Great and Small Linghe, tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians fell into the hands of the enemy, and Liaozhen suffered heavy losses.

Now the Jiannu brigade withdrew from Jinzhou to attack Ningyuan, Ningyuan after years of preparation, the combat strength of the army has increased greatly, in addition to Mangui, You Shilu and other commanders stationed outside the west city and Ningyuan corners, Ningyuan City Yuan Chenghuan thought that he would not fall.

However, Wei Zhongxian, a eunuch in the middle of the court who had long regarded him as unpleasant, took advantage of the loss of Juehua Island to encourage his henchmen to impeach him more, which greatly shook his position in the eyes of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

Seeing that Jiannu went against the grain and millions of Liao people fled, and the land was barren, this was a good opportunity from tomorrow, but Yuan Chenghuan said that he would definitely go to work this time, but unfortunately, alas, the internal is not quiet, and the opportunity is missed.

At this time, Huang Taiji, who was in the middle of the Jiannu formation, also used a telescope to carefully look at Ningyuan City, Ningyuan City Xuande was built in five years, more than Saturday, more than three zhang high, more than one zhang wide, the whole city is covered with bricks, the moat is four zhang wide, and more than one zhang deep.

Huang Taiji, who has been fighting for many years, has experienced the last battle of Ningyuan, and of course knows that Ningyuan City, like Jinzhou, is a rare fortified city in eastern Liaodong.

He had just commanded the Eight Banners to attack Jinzhou, and lost nearly a thousand men and horses but did not capture Jinzhou, so he led the main force of the Eight Banners to bypass Jinzhou and come to Ningyuan, hoping to lay down Ningyuan to cut off Jinzhou's back road.

In this campaign, Huang Taiji set three goals for Dajin, the most important is to take the big and small Linghe, the former Tunwei and other tunbao, followed by Jinzhou, the best result is to take Ningyuan, Jinzhou opened up the Liaoxi Corridor, reached Shanhaiguan, and completely eliminated the threat of the Liaoxi Corridor.

Since Huang Taiji ascended the throne, the Ming Dynasty in the west, the Dongjiang River, North Korea threatened Dajin on the east wing, the measures taken by the father Khan during the reign were inappropriate, and the evil consequences are now manifested, Liaodong has been in arrears of food for two consecutive years, and the wealth has decreased sharply, and this campaign is also a decision made by Huang Taiji gritting his teeth.

If the Ming army is indulged, the castles of the big and small Linghe and the former tunwei will be built, and in the future, Dajin will face a bitter battle for the city in western Liaoning.

Huang Taiji launched the battle of Ningjin just after the end of the expedition, fortunately, more than ten fortresses such as the big and small Linghe and Qiantun were captured, and more than 20,000 Ming troops were captured, more than 10,000 Dingkou, and more than 40,000 stones of rice grain.

However, Jinzhou Jiancheng made the Eight Banners suffer, and only the armor soldiers lost more than 100 people, hundreds of bannermen, and hundreds of coats.

Huang Taiji is already for the capture of Jinzhou is not a big hope, this time to Ningyuan is to attack with a glimmer of hope, and at the same time from Dajin to collect thousands of banners and coats to sweep the Ming army's military tun fields in Ningjin, all the winter wheat harvested, not ripe all burned, so that more than 100,000 acres of military fields have no harvest, tired Ming army.

Putting down the binoculars, Huang Taiji looked around at the group of Baylors, ministers,

"This attack on Ningyuan, the Ming army is divided into two parts, hoping that each other will be horns, our army headquarters will attack Ningyuan, who can lead the army to attack the Ming army outside the west city."

"King Khan, the minister Zilharang is willing to go." Beizi Zilharang knelt down and gave a salute.

Huang Taiji looked at Jierharang, this time the expedition to Jierharang was defeated in the Iron Mountain, losing hundreds of Ding, two thousand Han troops, even if Jierharang has always been close to Huang Taiji, Huang Taiji also had to kill the killer, demoted it from Baylor to Beizi, and punished him for one year.

This time, Zilharang asked for battle, of course, he knew that Zilharang was holding his breath and planned to atone for his crimes. As a member of the imperial family close to him, Huang Taiji will of course continue to give him opportunities, and he always believes that Zilharang is a rare capable and stable talent among the Jurchens.

When he saw Jierharang, he remembered the Denglai army, and the ferocious combat power of the Denglai army that landed in Tieshan from Shandong reminded him of the Zhejiang soldiers and Shizhu soldiers who fought bloody battles with the Jurchen army in the Hunhe River.

In order to eliminate this force of nearly 10,000 enemy troops who dared to fight, even under the attack of a large number of feather arrows and artillery bombardment, the Jurchens also paid nearly 10,000 casualties, which made the monarchs and ministers of the Dajin Kingdom frightened.

"Azig, Zilharang, and Yuetuo, the three of you lead two red flags, and the soldiers of the white flag are attacking the enemy in Xicheng. Derg, Sakhalian, Wakda, Haug and others led the siege of the city. Huang Taiji ordered.

"Huh." The ministers of the Beyler Bees, knelt on their knees and received the order.

The battle first began in Xicheng, Azig first ordered more than 3,000 captured Ming army soldiers and their families to dig and fill in the trenches, and Bao Yi was responsible for guarding them, these military households were the old and weak women and children eliminated from more than 20,000 military households and their families, which were the lives of the cannon fodder for filling the trenches.

The Ming army in the military village released arrows to the military households filling in the trenches under the order of Mangui and Zu Dashou, so the two sides of the Ming people began to attack in the miserable howling.

Half an hour later, the moat was filled in nearly 100 meters, but the corpses of more than 2,000 military women and children fell on the ground full of feather arrows, and the Ming people once again stained the land of Liaodong with blood.

Of course, both sides were used to such attacks, and no one cared whether they lived or died.

More than 2,000 Jiannu armor soldiers, banners and Mongolian Niu Lu soldiers rushed to the Ming army under the cover of the archers' long-distance projectiles.

The projectile of the Ming archers also caused some casualties among the Jiannu soldiers, and soon the Jiannu armor soldiers fought with the Ming army on the wall, the cold light of the swords and guns flickered, and the sound of entering the flesh continued to sound, followed by a hoarse howl, and then the red blood continued to stain the wall.

Tea Kung Fu, there are two places of the wall in danger, dozens of soldiers into the wall, Man Gui and You Shilu each brought their cronies Ding Pegasus to help, and the enemy fought fiercely, and finally eliminated these two groups of soldiers after paying the price of dozens of cronies Ding died.

After that, under the commander of the red-eyed Jilharang, Jiannu finally attacked the army village and started hand-to-hand combat with the Ming army, and at meal time, Jiannu paid Jierharang five arrows in his body, Sakhalian and Wakda were injured, Niu Lu Ezhen Bashi was killed by an arrow, and the Mongolian Niu Lu Ezhen Bobo Botu was shot and died, and finally drove the Ming army out of Dazhai.

The chief officer of the Ming army, Man Gui, You Shilu led the remaining 3,000 Ming troops to withdraw from the army and retreat after several arrows, however, the thousands of soldiers led by Man Gui were Ning Yuan's cavalry, although they retreated, they were waiting for an opportunity to attack Jiannu on the left, so that the Jiannu brigade could not attack the city with all their strength on their backs.

The Jiannu soldiers who were besieging the city temporarily retreated after paying hundreds of casualties and left the killing range of the Ming army's feather arrows.

Only the corpses all over the city show the fierce battle.

The soldiers of the Ming army cheered for victory, which was both a celebration and a blessing.
