Chapter 987: The situation is very good
I thought that I would kill all the horses of the Ming people, but I didn't expect that in the end, my side suddenly lost three people, and the remaining two Jurchen rangers were screaming in horror and anger, shooting towards that side with arrows. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
A person is thirty steps away, and he can shoot through a person's neck from thirty steps away, and the one over there must be the one who has good archery skills in the Ming people's squad, kill him, and the remaining one has been injured by arrows for a long time, and he won't live long, don't worry.
The snow is deep and shallow, the people in front can't run fast, and the people behind can't catch up, but the distance can't be stretched, and the Ming man in armor is swaying from side to side, and there are trees in the woods, so it's hard to shoot.
After chasing thirty paces, he almost reached the place where the Ming man had just shot an arrow, and just after a quick step, a man pounced out from behind the trunk of a tree on one side.
This person seemed to be lying on the ground, this pounce directly hugged a person's legs, the momentum of the pounce was not very fierce, only a person was taken crooked, and the Jurchen who was pounced on angrily scolded with a weapon and smashed down, but the action was just halfway through, but he screamed out in pain.
The Han man who hugged his leg held a short knife in his hand and desperately stabbed at the lower body of the Jurchen, who screamed and slashed down with the knife.
After a few moments, the Han man below also didn't move, and the arrow wound on this person's body was extremely obvious, killing the enemy, and the Jurchen man rolled on the ground in pain.
The companion was suddenly attacked, but the other was distracted, as soon as he saw that the blood was already spurting from his companion's lower body, he knew that he couldn't take care of it, but this distraction, the Han man in front of him had already turned around, opened his bow and aimed at the arrow, it was already a step too late, and it was too late to do anything.
This Jurchen threw away the bow and arrow in his hand, pulled out his knife and roared and rushed forward, these Han people have not seen too many scenes of fighting, less than thirty steps away, they rushed up like this, the other party may be flustered, and the opportunity is only at this time.
At the beginning, Yu Feng was indeed panicked when he met the brave and savage Jurchens, but now, his companions around him have died in battle, and Yu Feng's heart has hardened a lot.
His movement of opening his bow and arrows was very steady, and an arrow was shot, hitting the opponent's face and knocking him down directly.
Yu Feng threw away his bow and arrow, let out a sigh, he took out his long knife, and walked to the front with a deep foot and a shallow foot, his classmate had been killed, but the Jurchen still covered his lower body and screamed and struggled there, Yu Feng walked to him, raised his knife and slashed hard.
The Jurchen man below let out a louder scream, the terrible scream gradually quieted down, the knife in Yu Feng's hand still kept chopping, I don't know when, Yu Feng's tears had flowed down, and they became ice on his face, his plate armor was splashed with blood, and the plate deck was full of potholes, and in the pursuit along the way, Yu Feng was shot with four arrows, if it weren't for this plate armor, he would have died a long time ago
Liaoyang and Shenyang were not far away, but the army moved safely, and it took almost three days to arrive, and on the first day of the army's departure, the volunteer cavalry sent out began to return.
Many people who went out did not come back, not only following the companionship of the volunteer cavalry, but also many of the volunteer cavalry, but also many people came back, those who were originally from the Liaozhen family soldiers often had the first rank, and nearly a quarter of the outstanding volunteer cavalry returned.
Yu Feng came back the earliest, the number of heads brought back was second only to a few generals and soldiers from the volunteer cavalry, after this kind of volunteer cavalry returned to the army, the Huwei army horse team immediately paid the cash, and recruited them into the army, in the cavalry separately listed as a battalion, called the horse exploration battalion, the military salary is twice that of ordinary cavalry, but the work they are engaged in is also the most dangerous, responsible for detecting and finding the way, covering the battlefield.
Yu Feng, who had outstanding ability and brought back five heads, was promoted to become a small banner in the Tanma battalion, after the tragic hunting and counter-hunting in the early stage, around the official roads of Liaoyang and Shenyang, there were few Tartar cavalry activities, and the Tartars from all walks of life were also hindered from getting the news, and the cavalry of Wang Tong's headquarters was not used, and the cavalry of the various armies were not used.
Many of the Liaozhen army generals were sent by the master to serve here, and they were unwilling to join, this Wang Tong was also up to them, a total of 300 people came to join the Tanma camp, and the Huwei army cavalry itself transferred 500 people into it, and these cavalry were responsible for the strangulation of spies and rangers within 30 miles around the surrounding army.
There were 700 volunteer cavalry who were unwilling to join the Tanma Battalion, plus 500 cavalry of the Huwei Army, and 300 personal guards directly under Wang Tong, a total of 1,500 cavalry as the maneuver and garrison of the army.
Combined, there were only 1,000 cavalry of the Huwei Army who followed the army
People in Liaoyang City also know that the army now walking on the official road between Liaoyang and Shenyang is only seven regiments of the Huwei Army plus baggage and artillery teams, while Liaozhen's own 4,000 cavalry, Jizhen more than 2,000 cavalry, Datong more than 2,000 cavalry, Xuanfu more than 1,000 cavalry, and Huwei army and horse team more than 1,000 are rushing to Tielingwei from Liaoyang City to the west, along a series of fortified military villages on the border of Liaozhen and the grassland.
Taking Liaoyang as the starting point, going to Shenyang along the official road, and then to Tielingwei is the shortest route, but now this way of walking is actually along the Liaohe River all the way north to Tielingwei, which is nearly a quarter of the way away.
But if you consider it from the supply point of view, it is more reasonable, the amount of supplies needed by the ten thousand cavalry is very huge, and on the border along the Liao River, a large number of military fortresses are still there, and the storage is rich, this cavalry brigade only needs to carry a day's grain, and the rest can be obtained on the spot, and the speed is actually improved.
However, marching and supply are the same thing, the ultimate goal of the army is to win, Wang Tong's side is only more than 10,000 foot soldiers, more than 1,000 cavalry, plus artillery and baggage team is less than 16,000 people, and the Jurchen and Mengu coalition troops under Shenyang City are close to 40,000.
As for the coalition troops of the towns going to Tielingwei, there were only more than 10,000 cavalry, while the coalition troops of the Horqin Department and the Mengu Divisions were nearly 30,000 cavalry under the Tielingwei.
There are still scouts who can approach the army, after all, the number of more than a thousand cavalry is limited, and it is impossible to cover everything, and the credibility of the information seen under such a tight cover is even higher.
In fact, all parts of Liaozhen, from Liaodong to Liaobei, from the areas controlled by the Ming army to the areas controlled and active by the Tatars, gradually learned the news in the past few days.
More than 10,000 foot soldiers in Jizhen stayed in Liaozhen, the cavalry of the reinforcements from each town went to Tielingwei, and Wang Tong went to Shenyang to relieve the siege from the handsome Huwei army.
In the southern Liaoning generation, the breakup deputy general Sun Shoulian has been fighting very hard, and he has already fallen behind, and there is no way to help at all, and he even needs Wang Tong's assistance
And the current situation in Liao Town is different from that of the Tatars, Liao Zhen is now damaged by vitality, and after the four thousand elites are withdrawn, the rest of the forces can only be held at every point, and can no longer be reinforced, while the Tatars are much calmer, at present, Nurhachi can enter Liao Town at Hetuara at any time to reinforce, and strengthen each road at will, and the Tartars can also support each other, and they can concentrate more superior forces at any time.
When the Eastern Expeditionary Army came to Liaozhen, everyone felt that the situation was going to get better, but no one thought that now the situation would get worse.
Wang Tong is obviously a general who is good at using troops, and he has achieved so many victories, but he didn't expect him to do such a ridiculous thing about dividing his troops.
If there is any deep meaning in doing this, but no one can see it, if these can't be done, it is good to be able to keep secrets, but the news is spreading in Liaodong and Liaobei, and everyone knows that no one knows it, and the Tartars can win such a battle, and they are not stupid people, they naturally know how to deal with it.
The terrain between Liaoyang and Shenyang is flat, and the tens of thousands of Tartars besieging Shenyang City know that Shenyang City does not have much strength in Shenyang City, and they have already hoarded enough grain and grass under Shenyang City, and the terrain is also familiar.
The Huwei army brought by Wang Tong and the strength in Shenyang City combined, it was far inferior to the Tartar army under the city, because of this advantage, so the Tartar army simply set up a position in the south of Shenyang City and waited for the battle.
The Tartars sent several teams of cavalry to cut off the grain route of the Ming army, but found that the grain and grass of the Huwei army were transported by the carts of the team, and there was no grain transportation team that followed from behind.
No matter how much grain is loaded in the carts, there will be a day when they run out, and the officers and men are fighting in such a situation that they may run out of grain and grass at any time. The morale of the army is certainly unstable.
Everyone knows that Wang Tong once achieved brilliant results in the Tumut grassland, but at that time he had more than 30,000 forces in his hands, as well as the army of Jizhen, the soldiers and horses of Jizhen were famous on the grassland, but this time he only had more than 10,000 foot soldiers, and the soldiers and horses of Jizhen let him stay in Liaoyang City.
The so-called inevitable defeat of the army led by Wang Tong has already occupied a few lines, and the current situation only makes the enemy optimistic and the friendly army pessimistic.
However, there is one thing that the Ming army has done well, the march is heavily guarded, and it is not easy for the horse team sent by the Tartars to attack by exploiting loopholes, and there is a possibility of being hit by bows and arrows and firearms when they get close.
The contact on the way to this march made the uninformed men and Jurchens see the wealth of the Huwei army, those carts, the horses pulling the carts, the weapons in the hands of the soldiers, and the armor on their bodies all made people drool, if they could eat this force, it would immediately change suddenly, and the strength would increase suddenly.
Khan King Taiji thought so, and the generals below were ordinary soldiers, but they thought that as long as they agreed, they could get better equipment for themselves and make a small fortune.
More and more people are gathering under the city of Shenyang, and the situation is very good for the Jurchenmen G-Gu coalition army
