Chapter 601: The Decisive Battle is Coming!
Thank you to the brothers who have always supported the boat!
The boat is really tired and in poor condition during this time, but the wind and rain will pass, and the boat will be strong as soon as possible!
~~~~~~~
The wheels of history are rolling, and in the blink of an eye, another few days have passed.
In the past few days, both the Caishi Army and the Qing Army have maintained obvious restraint, but with the arrival of the follow-up Ming army reinforcements, the cold atmosphere between the two sides has reached a critical point!
At the head of the city, Huang Taiji leaned on the battlement, quietly looking down at the Ming army camp connected not far away, and the fat face made people not see too many expressions.
The guards around him all retreated far away, and only Prince Rui Dolgon was alone, accompanying Huang Taiji.
It has reached this level, and Dolgon also understands how much pressure Huang Taiji is under now!
At this time, under this Pinggu City, whether it is the Ming Dynasty or the Manchu Qing Dynasty, almost all of them are the elite of the whole country's ability to fight, this battle, no matter who wins or loses, in this vast and fertile land, the original order will be rewritten!
It's just that there are thousands of Ming people, and the Manchu Qing ......
These hundreds of thousands of elites of the Eight Banners are almost all the blood and blood of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, if the Ming people lose, they can still fight again after a few years, but if the Qing Dynasty loses......
Dorgon couldn't have thought any further!
"Your Majesty, the Ming army is sharp, and Liu Ruyi is cunning! In this battle, we don't have any advantage! Although Liu Ruyi and the Caishi Army are strong, but the Ming Dynasty is not monolithic, as long as we can be a little more patient, I am afraid that we don't have to fight like this with the Ming Army! My sons and daughters of the Qing Dynasty can't afford to hurt anymore! Dolgon glanced at Huang Taiji and couldn't help but say what was in the deepest part of his heart.
Huang Taiji was not too surprised, he turned his head, stared into Dolgon's eyes, and suddenly, let out a long sigh, "Fourteenth brother, what you say, I don't know?" What a pity! Time waits for no one! If we retreat now, in a few years, I don't know how strong Liu Ruyi will be! At this time, although the Caishi Army is strong, I am the elite of the Qing Dynasty, and I still firmly occupy the advantage of cavalry! If you can't kill Liu Ruyi here! In the future, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to have another chance! ”
Huang Taiji said, gently patting Dolgon's shoulder, "Fourteenth brother, my time is running out!" It's not that I can't let go of this throne, but Liu Ruyi is like a tiger and wolf, I, I really can't rest assured that our family business in the Qing Dynasty is not at ease! If this battle can be decided, Liu Ruyi will be killed, then I will be able to protect the country for at least a hundred years! When the time comes, I will put this country into your hands, and I will be able to leave with complete peace of mind! ”
Dolgon didn't expect Huang Taiji to say such a thing, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, you are the true son of heaven, you will live a long life, how can you be so ......"
Huang Taiji waved his hand, "What longevity?" Hehe! It's just self-deception! Fourteenth brother, you don't need to comfort me! My body, I know it in my own heart! It's just that if Liu Ruyi doesn't get rid of it, I'm afraid that I will die, and it will be difficult to look away! ”
"Your Majesty......" Dolgon knelt the ground and kowtowed desperately.
Huang Taiji personally helped Dolgon up, "Fourteenth brother, between you and my brothers, there is no need to be so polite!" This Qing Dynasty is my country, but it is also your country! So, we have to fight this battle! And, it has to win! ”
Dolgon also understood Huang Taiji's decisiveness, and nodded heavily, "Your Majesty, don't worry, even if you die, this time, we must completely kill Liu Ruyi!" ”
~~~~~~
At this time, in the camp of the Ming army, the atmosphere was completely different.
After several victories in successive battles, the sons and daughters of the Caishi Army gradually adapted to the rhythm of fighting with the Qing army, and at this time, the reinforcements of the Ming army had arrived.
War is actually like this, one trades off the other.
If you are strong, the enemy will be weak, and if you are weak, the enemy will be strong!
Although the main force of the Qing army is still there, Liu Ruyi's prestige is here, and the officers and men of all departments of the Ming army are generally optimistic about this upcoming decisive battle.
This would have been unthinkable in the past.
In Liu Ruyi's big tent, He Renlong, Hu Dawei, Yang Guozhu, Wang Pu, Gao Jie, Ma Ke and other generals gathered together.
The total strength between the generals has exceeded 150,000 people, plus the Caishi Army, I am afraid that there are more than 100,000 troops, all of which are new troops, which also makes the generals full of confidence in the next decisive battle.
Today is to discuss the military situation, Liu Ruyi did not prepare wine, but the mung bean soup with ice cubes is enough.
He Renlong felt a little remorseful in his heart because he didn't catch up with the advance of the Caishi Army, and he seized the opportunity at this time, where was he willing to let it go?
There were all acquaintances here, and He Renlong didn't have too many scruples, picked up a jar of cold mung bean soup, poured down more than half of it, opened his chest, and said with a big grin: "General, my old He is a straight intestine!" In the past, even if something was wrong, you didn't have to pay attention to it! But today, I Lao He is putting his words here! In this war, if the general has any send, I will go all out! If there is half a lie, let it be like this! ”
After He Renlong finished speaking, he slammed the jar on the ground, which startled the generals.
Liu Ruyi glanced at He Renlong with a smile, but did not immediately express his position.
He Renlong couldn't help but be a little anxious, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "General, my old He Ke is a heartfelt word, I implore the general to give us Qin Jun's sons a chance!" ”
Liu Ruyi hurriedly stepped forward, personally helped He Renlong up, and said with a smile: "General He, don't be like this!" Everyone is Ruyi's brothers, and they all give Ruyi face, so they will come to this place today! The Manchu Qing Dynasty is the great enemy of life and death of my Ming Dynasty, and it must be eliminated! General He's rest assured that in this battle, all of you will have the opportunity to fight! It's just that now, we still need to be patient for the time being, and take a look at the wind direction of the Manchu Qing Dynasty! ”
He Renlong couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, "Thank you General, thank you General!" I, the son of the Qin army, will definitely follow the general and fight to the death! ”
On the side, Gao Jie also knelt down and said: "General, although Lao He's words are not scored, he has a sentence that is not wrong!" I, the son of the Qin army, will definitely follow the general and fight to the death! ”
Although Gao Jie is only a deputy general in Shaanxi, in fact, the troops under his command are not much less than He Renlong, on the contrary, they are more elite, many of which are the elite old battalions of the homeless army that started with Gao Yingxiang, the king of Lao Chuang.
Although there is some friction between the two on weekdays, at this juncture, they also hug each other tightly, for fear that Liu Ruyi will leave them behind!
Liu Ruyi understands the little Jiujiu in the hearts of the two.
In fact, this is also human nature.
When the wind is headwind, all normal people want to retreat is, but now that the wind is downwind, everyone doesn't want to fall behind, and they all want to get a piece of the pie in this big war.
"Lao He, you say you're stupid! I don't believe it! In my opinion, you're fucking better than a monkey! Wang Pu was a little unhappy, the relationship between him and He Renlong was seventy-seven eighty-eight, if it weren't for Liu Ruyi's face, he was afraid that he would have jumped out and scolded at this time.
He Renlong didn't dare to refute, but just smiled at Liu Ruyi.
On the side, Hu Dawei, Ma Ke, Yang Guozhu and others couldn't sit still, and got up one after another, respectfully expressing their attitude towards Liu Ruyi.
Liu Ruyi's heart also became happy.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the nine-sided armies, except for Wu Sangui's Guanning army, had been shrinking into Liaodong, and the strength of the rest of the troops was basically under their control.
That~ Next, against the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the strength will increase a lot!
"Since all the brothers are in love, then the wishful thinking will be great!" Liu Ruyi hugged his fists at the generals, "At this level, all the brothers are afraid that they can all see it!" If this battle is decided, the general trend of the Manchu Qing Dynasty has gone! Therefore, for this battle, none of us here can be half careless! As long as this battle can be won, I, Liu Ruyi, will ensure that your children and grandchildren will be prosperous and rich for generations! ”
The generals couldn't help but be overjoyed when they heard this!
This is the first time for Liu Ruyi, in front of the generals, to truly show his will!
With Liu Ruyi's personal assurance, what worries will they have?
"General, we will swear to die for the general!"
"Swear to die for the general!"
The generals fell to their knees!
Liu Ruyi turned around and sat back on his tiger skin throne, looking down at the generals condescendingly, but in his heart, an indescribable pride inevitably rose!
"Gentlemen, please get up! Since you're trustworthy, let's start assigning tasks now! ”
~~~~~~
May 29, 14th year of Chongzhen.
This day is destined to be remembered by history!
Early in the morning, the Ming army took the lead!
He Renlong's Qin Army, Gao Jie's Qin Army, Ma Ke's Mountain Navy, Hu Dawei's Shanxi Army, Wang Pu's Datong Army, and Yang Guozhu's Xuanfu Army almost poured out of the nest, stuck around Pinggu City, firmly pinching the aorta leading to the Xianghe River in Pinggu!
And the Caishi Army was not idle, the main forces of the Vermilion Bird Battalion, the Qinglong Battalion, the White Tiger Battalion, and the three battalions were dispatched at the same time, threatening to the south gate of Pinggu.
Liu Ruyi rode on a tall horse, only a mile away from Pinggu City, quietly watching this small northland city.
At this time, a report from the soldiers came from not far away, "General, the Suzaku Battalion is already in place!" ”
"The Blue Dragon Battalion is already in place!"
"The White Tiger Battalion is in place!"
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Liu Ruyi's mouth, after waiting for so long, the moment of the decisive battle is finally coming, it is really exciting!
"Go! Send a few loud brethren to the top of the city and shout! That's all it ...... say."
"Yes!"
In a moment, more than a dozen horses galloped to the head of Pinggu City, and the leading military man took the lead in shouting: "Listen to the Slave Chief Emperor Taiji!" My general has an order, if you are willing to get lost and know how to return, tie your hands and feet, and go to the general to ask for sin! My general will spare your life! Let you minions and miscellaneous servants go back to the gates! Otherwise, the chicken dog will not stay! ”
"Chickens and dogs don't stay!"
"Chickens and dogs don't stay!"
This voice, first there were more than a dozen military men shouting together, and then, in the direction of the Caishi Army camp, the soldiers and men also shouted in unison, and then, the surrounding Ming troops also shouted in unison at the same time, this sound is almost like tearing the world apart!
