Chapter 178: Sortie

The strategy of deceiving the enemy was determined, and the general soldiers in the city, He Shixian and You Shigong, both felt that it was feasible, and it was also necessary to probe the enemy's low. Since they expected that the enemy might be deceitful and there might be ambushes outside the city, the other party would definitely not have imagined that they would directly attack with the whole army in a desperate attempt to fight with them!

This is surprisingly difficult to interrupt the opponent's plan, and this plan is also based on the fact that the other party must have ambushes outside, so they will not be desperate to really go to them desperately, and when the time comes, they will have to have the strength to return to the city when the other party's main force is lured!

It is already certain that the enemy army on the opposite side has only one white flag, and 7,500 people are already determined, and the number of ambushes is not certain, but it is certain that Nurhachi at this time is already known to have 100,000 troops! Of course, not all of these 100,000 people are Manchurians, and half of them are Han Chinese and Mongols!

The other party's white flag can definitely be regarded as elite, it is a pure Manchurian warrior, and it is led by Huang Taiji, so it will naturally not be bad. Although 7,500 people is small, its combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

On the side of the Ming Dynasty, the defenders of the entire Liaodong, even after the Battle of Salhu, had more than 100,000 troops in Shenyang and Liaoning, which were at least equal to the Later Jin in terms of numbers, but they were greatly inferior in terms of combat effectiveness.

In fact, when Xiong Tingcongee met Li Jiancheng, he also told Li Jiancheng about his strategic suggestions to the imperial court, and what he said was also like history: "Liaozuo is the shoulder of the Beijing division, and if you want to get the Beijing division, Liaozhen cannot be abandoned." Hedong, the heart of Liao; Kaiyuan, the root of Hedong is also. Now the original is broken, the Qinghe is abandoned, Qingyun is swept away, and the town is surrounded by the west. The people of several cities in Tieling fled. Duliaoyang and Shenyang are isolated in the east of the river. However, he did not guard Liao and Shen. Liao Town must not be protected, and if the original is not restored, Liao and Shen must not be protected. ”

Xiong Ting's words are also obvious, if Liao and Shen Ding are not secured, Liaodong will not be recovered, and Liao and Shen will not be able to be regained without Kaiyuan. Therefore, he put forward a historical suggestion to gather infantry in Guangning (now Beizhen, Liaoning) to contain the main force of the Later Jin; In Tianjin, Deng, Lai (now Penglai, Ye County, Shandong) each set up a governor, set up a boat division, and took the opportunity to enter southern Liaoning; In the east, unite with North Korea to strike Houjin from the rear; Set up a strategy in Shanhaiguan. Temperate the tripartite.

Xiong Ting's strategy is at least the best at present, but this does not coincide with the interests of Li Jiancheng's time-space strategic vision, in Li Jiancheng's opinion, it is a joke that Liaodong cannot be taken back, and when his armament is gone, how can Liaodong not be able to take it back! And now in his opinion, death in Liaodong is not beneficial to the entire Ming Dynasty.

Think about it, is it three years? Or five years? How much money does he need Li Jiancheng to invest? In particular, to the extent that he Li Jiancheng does not have a deep grasp of the current situation, he is just for that piece of land, that is, a nominal interest. And even if the whole territory of Liaodong is recaptured, for him Li Jiancheng and the entire country of the Ming Dynasty, except for the strategy, there will be no benefit of half a penny. Instead, the cost is a day's number! With the Ming Dynasty's corrupt teammates, the ghost knows what kind of situation will happen, and once the situation in Liaodong is stable, it is uncertain what they will do to grab the position. Then send a pig to work!

Of course, this is just a trivial matter, and the main reason is that what he Li Jiancheng needs is a period of development, as mentioned earlier is also to preserve vitality. Death in Liaodong is not only unfavorable to the development of his new policy pattern, but also to the overall development of his scientific and technological style.

On the contrary, if Liaodong is ceded to Nurhachi, in the situation that there is no war in Liaodong, Nurhachi will inevitably start to operate the territory for development, so that both sides will have a period of stability! Such a period of stability, whether it is for him Li Jiancheng's economy, politics or army, it is worth exchanging time for the two cities in Liaodong!

Because the Ming Dynasty was really a terminally ill country, there was no possibility of recovery without changing its internal affairs. Counting on the old government, Li Jiancheng did not have any peace of mind, and the army could not even guarantee logistics by relying on the old regime to fight a war in the front. And now Li Jiancheng still relies on this regime. So in such a situation, how can he let go of the investment and Houjin, the enemy he faces is not only Houjin, but also the erosive situation in the country!

At this time, there were 30,000 defenders in Shenyang and about 21,000 cavalry in attack. On the other side, the ratio of 7,500 cavalry is more than one to one with the infantry, that is, about 4,000 cavalry. The 4,000-year-old Jin cavalry is also a terrifying combat force, and the Jurchens are even more known as invincible.

So in order to respect the enemy, Sun Chengzhong didn't think of any tactics, and directly attacked the whole army, 10,000 cavalry, 10,000 infantry, plus 10,000 defenders, and 30,000 people went out of the city. Sun Chengzhong also gave Huang Taiji face, you are such a bull Lao Tzu 30,000 people come to attack to see if you run or not, if you come into contact with it, you will definitely be stuck by his people, and if you want to run, then the morale of our army will scare off the enemy in the first battle!

Huang Taiji didn't expect that the defenders of Shenyang were so backbone, 30,000 people ran out in a while, and after assembling the team, there was no roar from the front generals among the compatriots, and they began to charge at them with people a few miles away, Huang Taiji frowned, what kind of battle is this?

The 30,000 people running are still very imposing, especially when everyone looks at the small number of people on the opposite side, and they are nearly three times the other party, the Ming army also plucked up a little courage, and the morale of running is even better. This is also Sun Chengzhong's tactic, at the beginning, he ordered to run from such a distance, and he was not afraid of consuming the physical strength of the soldiers, just to achieve this psychological combat effect.

Sure enough, Huang Taiji charged when he saw the other party coming up, and after charging a third, his morale also rose a lot, and he felt that something was wrong, and when the Ming army rushed halfway, his face changed color.

And Sun Chengzhong, who looked at the city wall, didn't look good on his face, he was half gone, the enemy hadn't run yet, this Huang Taiji was really not simple, and he could still be so calm in the face of an army charge four times his own.

But Huang Taiji is not a fool, when the other party rushed over and there were still three miles away, Huang Taiji ordered the troops to retreat, Huang Taiji is not a fool, in case he is rushed by the enemy, surrounded and entangled by enemies several times his own, he is a god and has no power to get out, not to mention that 30,000 pigs on the opposite side really rushed in, and his team is enough for him to be busy!

Huang Taiji's army camp tent was not set up, he just put away his things and ran away, in fact, he didn't plan to set up camp in the first place, he was here to pretend to provoke the other party, and now he runs fast as soon as the things are collected. The Houjin cavalry is good at riding and archery, and they shoot arrows backwards after the cavalry, You Shigong's cavalry momentum is slow, and the soldiers behind run for five or six miles with all their might, basically all of them are out of breath and have no physical strength. In fact, this is also a good calculation, they charge with full momentum but people are not better than horses, the infantry has no strength to run here, just the cavalry left the infantry to continue the pursuit, but also in order not to hit the opponent's ambush so that the infantry can return to the city after the infantry, can not really catch up.

After the Jin cavalry shooting, the tailwind after shooting is even better, You Shigong saw the opposite archery also ordered the troops to slow down and dodge the arrows, so chased for more than ten miles, into the front of a mountain terrain, You Shigong raised his eyebrows and knew that the road must have almost reached the ambush point, and ordered the troops to slow down and 'dodge the arrows'.
