Chapter 104: The decisive battle is about to begin

According to the original history, the battle of Dalinghe began with the raid of Houjin, then entered the siege, and then surrounded the point to send reinforcements, and after a simple peace, the final attack was attacked.

But in the original history, Duoduo would not have died here, this guy would have died of smallpox, and would never have died on the battlefield. The biggest difference in this campaign should be the investment in firearms. The Ming Dynasty invested more firearms than in history, and the most important thing is that the power of firearms is much stronger than the firearms of the historical Ming army.

Sun Chengzong was completely caught off guard by Duoduo, that is, he bullied Houjin's distrust of firearms, and at the same time, he didn't expect that Daming would be put into the battlefield on a large scale. It cannot be denied that because Sun Chengzong invested more than 2,000 firearms, more than half of the 1,000 people led by Duoduo were directly killed.

Sun Chengzong made a fortune, and the soldiers in Liaodong will naturally be blushing. When they found out that the Tartar was not so easy to kill, and that the power of the Fire Gun was so powerful, they suddenly became bolder. At least on the Jinzhou side, Sun Chengzong's firecracker troops have been upgraded, and more than 5,000 of the latest firecrackers have been armed in place, although they belong to several generals, and these firecrackers were originally allocated to Sun Chengzong by the imperial court, but for the sake of the overall situation, Sun Chengzong can only acquiesce to this situation.

If the Liaodong Guanning Army does not stretch out its hand towards materials and food, it will be as rare as the world's rogues becoming obedient people the next day, and even crying for their fathers and mothers to come to Liaodong to fight Tartars.

During this period of time, Sun Chengzong, while integrating the troops, also sent the first nitrate of more than 500 Tartars that had been harvested before to Beizhili. More than 500 Tartars were killed in one battle, which was also a great victory. You must know that in the past, after Jin went south, Guan Ningjun was able to kill two hundred true Tartars, which can also be regarded as a great victory, and now the heads of more than five hundred true Tartars, this is not a great victory, so what else can be regarded as a great victory?

The head was sent to Beizhili quickly, and Chongzhen personally went to inspect it and confirmed that it was the head of the real Tartar, and immediately laughed.

So he took out another 100,000 taels and sent them to Liaodong as a reward for Sun Chengzong and others, and at the same time transferred 20 Franco cannons and 10 Hongyi cannons. In fact, it can be seen from this that even if the Ming Dynasty is weak, even if the funds are poor, but the foundation is still there, regardless of the cost and the large number of craftsmen, it is still very easy to quickly make a batch of artillery and guns.

After getting the supplies, Sun Chengzong was also very happy, quickly expanded the firearms unit, and was ready to fight to the death with Houjin.

At the same time, Houjin also gave up the siege of Dalinghe City, just because of Duoduo's hatred, he needed the blood of the Ming army to cleanse it! The ancestral longevity department that had been besieged by them in Dalinghe City was the best sacrifice.

Not to mention, at this moment, the Houjin troops have just transported ten red-coated cannons to be used.

"General Zu, everyone is an old acquaintance, and we don't intend to embarrass you. You see, your reinforcements have not yet arrived, but our cannons are already aimed at your Great Linghe City. Now there are only two paths before your eyes, one is surrender and the other is death. Remember, our majesty is angry because you have a reinforcement army that has killed our prince, and if you don't come to your senses, you will have to face our wrath! "Whether it was out of attack or sincere intention to surrender, Houjin still sent an envoy to surrender.

Zu Dashou was not a fool, he naturally saw the Hongyi cannon that had been aimed at the city wall. Listening to the envoy's words again, I first sighed when Sun Chengzong was so capable that he actually killed the prince of Houjin? Then he felt that he was really unlucky, and the prince of Houjin was killed, and he could still please him?

Seriously, at this moment, Zu Dashou is even really planning to surrender. Chongzhen, the emperor, is not easy to serve, he used to be under Mao Wenlong, and he was also a good drinker, and his life was not bad, but Mao Wenlong was killed by Yuan Chonghuan; Yuan Chonghuan is not a supervisor, but it is also a system, and Yuan Chonghuan is also allowed to be a martial artist, and the soldiers of Liaodong also obey him, but in the end, a few words of slander from others, Yuan Chonghuan was delayed. Well, if you are also slandered by someone, will you also be called to the capital to give Ling Chi?

Chongzhen Ling Chi Yuan Chonghuan may have diverted the people's complaints, but at the same time, it also chilled the hearts of the soldiers in Liaodong.

"General, what are we going to do?" Zu Dashou's lieutenant asked.

"What else? Defend the city, hold on until the last moment, if those rabbit cubs don't come to the rescue, then it's no wonder that we don't come! Zu Dashou finally made up his mind, the blood of the Han people made him unbearable to lose his ancestors' clothes, but his heart made him cherish his life.

It's a very contradictory feeling, but it's not easy to understand.

Seeing that Zu Dashou did not react, Huang Taiji would not be polite, and immediately gave the order to attack.

The Red Cannon, a shipborne cannon made in the early 16th century, is also called the Hongyi Cannon, which refers to the meaning from the Dutch and Portuguese, and was later imitated by the craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty. Kong Youde took the craftsmen to take refuge in Houjin, and Huang Taiji felt that the word 'Hongyi' of Hongyi Cannon was very unpleasant, at least they were also 'Yidi' at that time, so they took a homonym and renamed it 'Red-clothed Cannon'.

The Hongyi cannon weighed two tons, which was very difficult to transport, and it was necessary to dig a pit and reinforce it before firing so that it could be fired. But it cannot be denied that the power of this artillery was the most advanced at that time, at least if Zhang Hongbin did not appear, it was definitely the most advanced.

There were more than 20 rings before and after, and the result was that the Dalinghe City that had just been repaired was destroyed, and at this moment, in front of Houjin, the ancestor of the Shoubu inside was completely an unguarded graceful woman, just waiting for the warriors of Houjin to push it down. Well, at this point, Zu Dashou has no choice, he put down his weapons with both hands and surrendered!

At first, Dorgon was reluctant to accept surrender, and according to him, Dorgon could not have a decent sacrifice for his revenge. Huang Taiji is more rational, in fact, it is Fan Wencheng who admonishes, saying: "If Zu Dashou surrenders, then there are many generals in Liaodong who dare not die." ”

It is precisely because of this advice that Zu Dashou escaped from the tiger's mouth, and he was also glad to know about it afterwards.

Dalinghe City was captured in just one day, and the news of Zu Dashou's surrender naturally quickly spread to Sun Chengzong's department who was about to set off in Jinzhou. After hearing that Jin Buri went south, and Zu Dashou also surrendered, many Liaodong generals also began to have the intention of cowardice. It can't be said that it was completely cowardice, it can only be said that they didn't dare to go out to fight in the field again, and they only wanted to defend the city. After all, what they have to face is not Houjin's Einsatzgruppen, but Houjin's main force, which is tens of thousands of troops!

"How can you be disloyal to the king? Now that the enemy is present, do you dare to be cowardly? Could it be that you think the sword in Sun's hand is unfavorable? Sun Chengzong was also very angry about this, and directly pulled out the Shang Fang sword that Chongzhen gave him.

Okay, this thing is very powerful, you must know that Yuan Chonghuan has this thing, you can cut Mao Wenlong before dawn, and then report it to Chongzhen. According to the temperament of these literati, if they don't fight this time, I'm afraid that they will really be cut by him.

Everyone is afraid of death, and what they are most afraid of is dying at the hands of their own people, and when the time comes, they will become so-called sinners without compensation.

The generals of Liaodong are not stupid, so they can only bite the bullet, not only prepare the Guanning iron cavalry properly, but also the firearms troops are the first to go into battle. Eventually, the scouts of both sides encountered within a hundred miles northeast of Jinzhou, and began a skirmish before the war.

The scouts of the Guanning Iron Cavalry can also be regarded as good at fighting, as long as the Tartars of Houjin dare to fight with them, then they even dare to rush out. After all, they are natives of Liaodong, and they love the land of Liaodong more than others, and they are more willing to fight to the death to defend this land. Of course, there is another reason, their equipment is far superior to Houjin's scouts, and if they really fight one-on-one, they can only suffer Houjin.

As a result, Houjin has completely become blind and deaf, while Daming's side is constantly receiving Houjin.

Finally, the two sides met on a grassland, a battlefield deliberately prepared by Sun Chengzong. Here, there is no obstacle, but it is where the artillery and guns are at their most powerful. And here, too, is also the place where Huang Taiji is ready for a decisive battle, and Gaine is suitable for horse running, archery, and shelling.

It's just that when he saw the dense firecracker troops, and the cold artillery behind him, he still regretted it a little.

However, at this point, he has no regrets, so he can only bite the bullet and meet this somewhat uncost-effective decisive battle!
