Chapter 930: Imperial Driving
Hao Fenglou may not be a person who cherishes feathers, thinking that when Zhu Di was there, as a brocade guard, he was cursed by the hundred officials every day, it didn't matter, to put it bluntly, Hao Fenglou didn't care what others thought of him, but if he really let thousands of elite soldiers retreat to the sea just because there were tens of thousands of Ming troops outside the city, this is obviously a particularly difficult decision.
So, he decided to think about it for a few days.
But after a few days, the situation finally began to deteriorate.
He was indeed deceived to the point of making a fatal miscalculation.
Because at this time, a steady stream of Ming troops began to appear, mighty, obscuring the clouds and the sun, and even the scouts didn't know how many military horses there were, and Hao Fenglou's judgment was...... Pouring out of the nest.
Yes, hundreds of thousands of military horses in Jinling poured out of the nest, and they actually surrounded the hundreds of miles outside Zhenjiang, and then more and more Ming troops came to help, and even the Ming army in Jiangbei blocked the Jiangkou to help in the war.
And at this time, the best retreat time has passed, Hao Fenglou can choose to break through, but the risk is also very great, but in just half a month, all the retreat has been completely cut off, not only that, the cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei began to appear, this is the most courageous iron cavalry of the Ming Dynasty, in the wilderness, is obviously the biggest nemesis of the Lang Son army.
The reason why Hao Fenglou was deceived is, to a certain extent, not unrelated to the strength of the Langshan army, the Ming army had almost no power to parry, and the imperial court had almost no way to deal with it, so Hao Fenglou, and even the vast majority of officers and soldiers of the Langshan army, the vast majority of them had a concept, that is, the Ming army was vulnerable. As for the princes in the court, they are just a group of people who are greedy for life and afraid of death.
And Zhu Hu obviously saw through this. In the past few months, it has been working the layout. In order to paralyze Hao Fenglou, he weaved an impermeable illusion, and because of this, Hao Fenglou was fooled.
Got into a bad deal.
Looking from the distance from the top of the city, between the countless streams, lofty mountains, forests, and ridges, the dense camps are connected and stretching for hundreds of miles.
Then the only option is to defend the city.
Hao Fenglou is a master of defending the city, this aspect. He has a lot of experience, and what he is best at is to use one as ten, but right now, his confidence is not very high.
On the one hand, Zhenjiang has become an isolated city, and the supply has been cut off, although the grain stock is sufficient, but there is no gunpowder and enough projectiles to hold on for a long time, and it is unrealistic to produce in the city. The current gunpowder, at most, is only to insist on a fierce battle for half a month, although this stock is already amazing, but after half a month. There is still a steady stream of Ming troops outside the city, what should we do next?
Secondly, the current Ming army has abandoned its swords, guns, and halberds under the strong pressure of the Lang Son army. A large number of guns and artillery have begun to be equipped, which are powerful siege weapons. In the face of firearms, the role of the city wall is not much different from that of tissue paper.
The firearms of the Ming army were certainly far inferior to those of the Lang Son army. However, the other party is ten times that of Lang Son Army, and the difference of ten times is enough to make up for this gap.
That is to say, if it is a decisive battle out of the city, even if it can inflict heavy losses on the Ming army, but in the face of this huge number, the only possibility for this lone army is to kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800 themselves, and finally the blood will be shed and the whole army will be annihilated.
If you retreat into the city, once you run out of ammunition, you will be slowly dragged to death.
Hao Fenglou squinted and arrived at the city tower, he held on to the female wall motionless, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It seems that this Zhu Hu has a few brushes, they have bet all the bets, and they plan to transport this country to gamble, pass the order, release all the scouts, no matter what method is used, how many sacrifices, you must find out the details of the Ming army, within three days, I will only give the reconnaissance battalion three days, three days, if there is no detailed report, the battalion officer will be removed from his post and investigated!" ”

In fact, Hao Fenglou was not only worried about the Ming army outside the city, the city of Zhenjiang began to become unstable, and the arrival of the imperial army made some royal party elements in the city see hope and began to sabotage on a large scale.
Hao Fenglou ordered any royal party elements to be suppressed, and in one day, hundreds of heads were hung on the city.
Then comes waiting.
The Ming army outside the city is obviously not in a hurry to attack, it's not that they are soft-hearted, it's really that these people's organizational ability is really chaotic, hundreds of thousands of troops are going, and if they want to sort it out slowly, it will take a while, where can they organize the siege now.
At this time, many military attachés began to suggest a surprise attack, taking advantage of the unstable foothold of the Ming army to go out of the city for a surprise attack, even if they could not inflict heavy damage on the other side, at least they could give the other party a 'lesson'.
Hao Fenglou was silent.
He chose to write letters.
The content of the letter is very simple, it is a reply to the Empress Dowager Xu, the Empress Dowager Xu proposed to make peace before, Hao Fenglou ignored it, but now, Hao Fenglou is replying to the letter.
It is also ridiculous to say, this reply letter will never have any effect, because before this, King Zhou instructed Empress Dowager Xu to write a letter to discuss peace, but it was just to paralyze Hao Fenglou, not to negotiate peace sincerely, and now Hao Fenglou wants to hold Buddha's feet temporarily, how can the other party accept it.
In other words, of course Hao Fenglou knew what he was doing, and he wrote this passionate letter for only one reason, he also wanted to paralyze his opponent.
Obviously he could attack without taking decisive measures, and he still had some hope that it was impossible to make peace, Hao Fenglou was showing weakness.
The letter was sent, and naturally it was lost.
And a few days later, without any news, the Ming army outside the city finally made a complete arrangement.
The 300,000 new troops, armed with sharp firearms, have already set up their positions, sharpening their swords, and tens of thousands of Duoyan Sanwei iron cavalry are waiting for the opportunity to move, ready to attack the Lang Son army out of the city at any time, and the rest of the guards and guards are also tens of thousands of people, and these main burdens are auxiliary attacks.
Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.
Zhu Youstew's royal car arrived at the camp, he chose his camp in Shidu, here is Jinling, there are tens of thousands of elite soldiers on the left and right, the terrain is higher, at this time the dragon flag is raised, suddenly, this has become the focus of hundreds of thousands of troops.
