Dodor and Azig followed the prestige, and a man slowly walked out of the shadows behind Dolgon's chair, approached and removed a hood from his head, and Dordor and Azig couldn't help but be taken aback.

"He Luohui!"

He Luo will not be humble or arrogant to greet the two, "The slave has seen the twelfth and fifteenth masters!" ”

Although Duoduo and Azig had known about Dolgon's recruitment of the Holohui, they did not expect him to appear in Dolgon's big tent at this time.

Dolgon obviously took He Luo very seriously, and after listening to his words, he nodded, "Tell me what you think, but it's okay to talk about it!" ”

After He Luohui saluted, he said word by word, "If it weren't for Concubine Chen's serious illness, the emperor would never have left the war and rushed back to Shengjing in the starry night." Now he is thinking carefully, and he will not be unaware of the risk involved. Today, we must not only impress the prince with affection, but also arrange a follow-up hand to deal with the actions that the prince may have. Therefore, the minion boldly suggested, this is not the right time to go-for-tat with Jinshang. ”

"What's more!" He Luohui carefully arranged the wording, and then said cautiously: "Now this big war will be a battle related to the survival of my Manchuria, and there is no room for sloppiness, if you rashly act against the emperor at this time, the incident will cause the entire army to be frustrated, and if this battle is defeated, my Manchuria will never have peace in the future, and the strategic advantage of the Ming court will also lose half of the ......!" ”

Dorgon looked at Duoduo and Azig quietly, "Think about it, even if you can regain what you lost before this time, if you lose the war, the territory of Manchuria's survival will be greatly reduced, and what is the meaning of what you get?" Therefore, I thought about it carefully, there are too many risks and variables contained in this, it is better to go all out to win this military merit, and after the war, I can also attract a large number of children of the Eight Banners, thinking that I will use it! ”

Duoduo looked at Azig and immediately smiled, "Since you have figured it out, then what else do I have to say with Brother Twelve, the two of us will never be left behind in the battle and battle, and these things should be left to you to decide!" ”

……

The Battle of Jinzhou began in mid-September, when Hong Chengchou commanded the 130,000 troops of the Eighth Division to attack the Qing army with Songshan, Xingshan, and Tashan as the fulcrum, in an effort to break the Qing army's encirclement and flanking posture on the Jinzhou line. The imperial envoys Zhang Ruoqi, Ma Shaoyu and Du Xun ordered Hong Chengchou to devote heavy troops to attack the Qing army at the beginning of the battle, and interfered with Hong Chengchou's immediate command.

The Qing army was divided into three aspects: left, center, and right, with Daishan supporting the left wing army, Zilharang presiding over the right wing, Dolgon sitting in the middle army, and Hauge as the vanguard.

The main direction of the Ming army's attack was to cut off the three Qing army trenches between Ningyuan and Songshan, and the soldiers and horses of Cao Bianjiao, the general soldier of Yutian, and Bai Guangen, the general soldier of Jizhen, were the first to enter the battle, and the firearms and artillery of the Ming army were pushed to the front of the formation, including the car formation that was not commonly used in the past.

But at present, the artillery strength of the Qing army can not be underestimated, Huang Taiji invested a lot of money, and the Han Army Banner Wuzhen Chaoha Legion formed on the basis of the Ming army's surrender played a great role, and Shi Tingzhu, the chief general of Wuzhen Chaoha, carried 37 red-clothed cannons forged by the Manchu Qing Dynasty "God Bless Cheering General", as well as more than 10,000 shells.

At the beginning of the battle, the artillery of the Qing army's Wuzhen Chaoha troops began to show their skills, the Qing army's "God bless the general" bronze cannon, compared with the Ming army's artillery is not inferior, but in terms of ammunition supply is far superior to the Ming army's troops, plus in the battle of Julu learned a lesson, each copper cannon is also equipped with a four-wheeled sports car, eight mules and horses, so the ability to move is greatly increased. While bombarding fiercely, it also avoided the fate of being pursued by the Ming artillery.

It can be said that Dolgon was extremely cautious in his use of troops, and he also fully learned the lesson of being heavily damaged by Zhu Ping'an's artillery troops during the Battle of Julu. But compared with the Shandong army, the Ming army in front of him is much inferior to the soldiers and horses of the Zhongdu Guard. Although the types and quantities of firearms are extremely large, most of the ammunition has been consumed in the battle a few days ago, and the supply channel is blocked, so most of the firearms and artillery have become decorations, and they are helpless in the face of the artillery strikes of the Qing army for a while, and even Hong Chengchou is helpless, so he can only attack with heavy troops, which also causes a large number of casualties of the Ming army.

At the beginning of October, after paying huge casualties, the Ming army finally took two trenches, but Hauge guarded the third trench with elite soldiers, and Dolgon led two white flag brigades to reinforce with Azig, while Daishan and Zilharang resisted the Ming army's flank attack on the left and right flanks.

The messengers of the eight general soldiers continued to enter and leave the big tent of Hong Chengchou's Chinese army, Hong Chengchou and a group of staff members were also anxious, and it was difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, and the grain and grass that had been hoarded in the fortresses of Songshan, Xingshan, and Tashan had already been exhausted, although Ning Yuan continued to transport grain to the Jinzhou front, but the Qing army rangers continued to harass halfway, and the materials, grain and grass that were finally transported to the front line were not enough for the army to use.

After half a month, if the imperial court does not send grain and grass materials, the Ming army will be in chaos without a fight. Wu Sangui, Tang Tong and others are in tandem in private, Hong Chengchou has also heard of it, but he is helpless, he has no food in his hands, and it is a pipe dream to make these proud soldiers bow to their ears.

Early in the eleventh morning of October, Zhang Ruoqi, Ma Shaoyu and Du Xun officially informed Hong Chengchou that the imperial court no longer had the spare strength to support Guanwai, and now it can only rely on Shanhaiguan and Ningyuan to provide supplies. Joke, with the current cities in Liaodong to provide 130,000 troops, in less than a month, the Liaodong legion's accumulated family funds will be consumed, Ma Ke and others are all from the wealthy families of Liaodong, so they will do such a loss-making business, so they simply came to a yin and yang disobedience, and never looked at each other again.

Hong Chengchou suddenly felt that he was like a rat trapped in the bellows, neither advancing nor retreating, and the imperial court was dedicated to solving the war outside the border, but it pushed him to the point of a dilemma. Now that they want to advance, the Qing army is becoming more and more courageous, and they want to retreat, but they are firmly dragged by the Qing army, and the way back behind them is even more secretly murderous. The original prudent strategy has been disrupted and discarded, but in exchange for today's difficulties, step by step abyss.

In a trance, someone came to report that the boat master Dasheng on the sea outside Songshan, looking at the flag but the sailor of the Ming Dynasty, had just sent someone to land, saying that he wanted to see the superintendent.

Hong Chengchou was stunned, but he couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope in his heart. Since the beginning of the Zhengde period, the Ming Dynasty's sailors have deteriorated, and in the Jiajing period, only the Guangdong sailors still have some scale. From the year of the Apocalypse to the present, especially after the Zheng family was attached to the imperial court, the Fujian Navy Division can be regarded as the façade of the Daming Water Division, but it is only in the name of an official army, in fact, it is just a private soldier of the Fujian and Guangdong Hao clans.

And now in the north of the Ming Dynasty, if you talk about the water division, in addition to the Denglai water division, there will be a second one. At this time, when you come to the sea off Matsuyama, it must be the ship of the Denglai Naval Division.

"Please!" Hong Chengchou suddenly came to the spirit, his subordinates had just come out of the account, he was also a little impatient, the dignified Governor Jiliao actually came out of the Chinese army tent in person and greeted the outside, which can be seen that the sudden appearance of the Denglai Sailor was like a life-saving straw for him.

There was only one person who came, a young man of about twenty years old, with a burly figure, a rough appearance, a bearded face, and the color of his clothes was no more than a low-ranking officer of a hundred households.

Seeing Hong Chengchou, who was dressed in a red robe, come out in person, the officer was also startled, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted, "Xiaguan Shandong Dusi New Army Hundred Households Wuzi Niu to meet the Supervisor!" ”

Hong Chengchou hurriedly motioned to his soldiers to help him up, and comforted him with kind words, and then entered the big tent to talk.

Wu Ziniu followed Li Dingguo to conquer Phi Island, and then went to North Korea and became an officer of the Ming army in Korea. He is a company commander, but he is afraid that Hong Chengchou will have a misunderstanding, so he calls himself a hundred households.

The three famous brothers in the first phase of the lecture martial arts have now served under Li Dingguo in North Korea. Xiao Yuanteng is subordinate to the Military Intelligence Department and is the general office of the North Korean sub-station; Zhang Jizu had outstanding strategies and entered the Korean Governor's Office as a staff officer, following Li Dingguo's side; However, Wu Ziniu prefers military life, so he took the initiative to ask to serve in the front-line army.

When the Songjin War broke out, the Ming army not only had huge external pressure, but its combat power and supplies were far inferior to that of the Qing army, and the internal was even more complicated.

Zhu Ping'an is in this era, but he found out how difficult it was to change history. After confirming that he could not change the status quo of the Songjin War, and at the same time in order to withdraw from the already eroded battlefields of Shanxi and Henan, he ordered the defenders of Phidao to cooperate with the naval division troops stationed in Korea to advance to the Songshan area.

With the strength of these 10,000 people, if you want to land and fight hard with the Qing army, it is undoubtedly self-defeating, so you can only use the naval division ships to respond, and if the distance allows, you can also use artillery fire to reinforce.

Wu Ziniu landed on the shore to be the main general of the operation, Tong Jingyan's order to go ashore and get in touch with Hong Chengchou, in addition to the strategy in case of defeat in the war, some of the men and horses can also abandon the shore to board the ship, and retreat by sea.

After Wu Ziniu finished speaking, Hong Chengchou had not yet spoken, Gao Qiqian, who was sitting upright, exchanged glances with Wu Sangui, but asked Wu Ziniu directly, "Our family asks you, did the Shandong army support Ning Jin but got the edict of the imperial court?" ”

"There is no edict from the imperial court!" Wu Ziniu shook his head.

"Is there an order from the Ministry of War?"

"Neither!"

Wu Sangui suddenly sneered, "Mr. Zhu's hand is so long!" Wu admires! Far away in Tongguan, the Shandong Army and the Denglai Naval Division actually sent people to the front line of Ningjin, but they did not follow the order or the order. The general army of a town actually mobilized troops and horses at will, but I don't know what the reason is? ”

Wu Ziniu suddenly became angry, Wu Sangui's yin and yang weirdness, he knew that he had bad intentions when he heard it, and immediately said loudly: "Shandong Denglai and Liaodong face each other across the sea, and they are close at hand. The battle of Ningjin is also related to the national fortune of our Ming Dynasty, so this is the only way to overcome all difficulties and resolutely send soldiers and horses to participate in the national war, can there be any selfishness? ”

Wu Ziniu is also a stubborn temper, hearing the cynicism of Wu Sangui, Gao Qiqian and others, Hong Chengchou couldn't make up his mind for a while, and was silent, and he was furious at that time.

"That being the case, the lower officials will make it clear to the main general, and the Ningjin army is in control, so why do I need to be amorous and villainous in vain! This is the withdrawal of troops! ”

After speaking, Wu Ziniu saluted Hong Chengchou and the others, turned around and strode out of the big tent.

Hong Chengchou's heart sank, and he was about to get up to stop him, but he thought about it again and again in his heart, and sat back in his place. R1152
