Chapter 304: Dai Shan's ambush

The Jingbei Army broke through Lushun in one day, more than 1,000 Manchurian soldiers with blue flags were lost in half, and more than 3,000 Han Army Banner and Water Divisions were wiped out.

This time, the puppet Qingli prince Dai Shan was ordered by the slave chief Hongtai to personally lead the two red flags, 60 Niu Lu and more than 4,000 Tianyou soldiers under Kong Youde, and more than 3,000 Mongolian soldiers from the Mongolian Ezhen Namutu department to go to the foothills between the big black mountain and the small black mountain near Lushun through Anping Fort.

This is also all the military horses that Huang Taiji can draw out in order to support the war situation in southern Liaoning, of course, the military orders obtained by Dai Shan are not limited to southern Liaoning, if Li Xingzhi really does what the Qing Jun side does, then this military horse will naturally become the reserve of Huang Taiji's attack on Shanhaiguan.

Originally, Li Xingzhi sent people to Shengjing and Manchuria to divide the land of the Ming Kingdom, but Dai Shan, Kong Youde and others still believed a little, after all, Xiao Li Thief was born as a thief, and it stands to reason that he should have no loyalty to the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom.

In order to disturb the military morale of the officers and soldiers of the Ming State on the side of Jinzhou, Huang Taiji even released the news of sending troops with Xiao Li Thief, and the news from the Jin Shang completely broke Dai Shan's illusion, and Xiao Li Thief actually pretended to make an appointment as Huang Taiji expected, and personally led the army to Lushun.

To be honest, Dai Shan was not angry about Xiao Li Thief's betrayal of the alliance, but was a little excited, his son Yue Tuo was folded in Xiao Li Thief's hands last year, and this time he could take this opportunity to take revenge.

"Prince Li, Ilden and they were defeated, the sentry came to report, Xiao Li Thief attacked Liaodong this time, carrying no less than tens of thousands of military horses, Lushun has been lost, Shicai Ilden withdrew to Nanguan with hundreds of people, should we go to meet with Ilden or continue to ambush, waiting for Xiao Li Thief to go north?"

The little flag lord Tezu worriedly reported to Dai Shan the information that the scout had just spied.

"Our sailor is not as good as the Ming sailor, defeat is also a normal thing, Ilden retreated to Nanguan, just for the king to attract the attention of the little Li thief, if he leads the army to the north, our army ambush the army, can be the main force of the little Li thief wiped out."

Dai Shan is the eldest son of the old slave Nurhachi, and he is also a battle-hardened general, and he has fought in the sea, and he immediately thought of a strategy to deal with the Jingbei Army.

"Prince Li, we ambush troops in Daheisheng, although we are stuck on the only way for Xiao Li Thief to go north, but his sailors are sharp, and if he carries a lot of artillery, if he only enters and occupies Lushun, and builds fortifications in Lushun, and then uses the boat division to go north to Gaizhou, Fuzhou and even Yaozhou, wouldn't it be in vain for us to ambush troops here?"

Gongshun Wang Kong Youde is proficient in water warfare, and has been in the Dongjiang River for a long time, and knows the terrain of southern Liaoning, what he is most worried about at the moment is not that the Jingbei army will go north, but that he will attack the area of Anping Fort in Yaozhou, and the 100,000 army will be gathered in Jinzhou.

"Then, in the opinion of the obedient king, how should our army act?"

Khalchu is young and vigorous, his eldest brother died in Leiden, and he came to Liaonan this time to avenge his eldest brother.

"It's better to sneak attack Lushun at night, and then induce Xiao Li to pursue and force his army to fight in the field with our army."

Kong Youde was full of confidence in the combat power of the Eight Banners Army, when the Dongjiang Army and the Donglu fought against them, they were actually defeated and won less, and when he rebelled against the Ming Dynasty in Wuqiao, he was able to crisscross Leiden for several years by relying only on eight hundred warriors, and finally the Ming Court concentrated a large number of elites to be able to break Dengzhou.

In Kong Youde's opinion, there are now nearly 20,000 Eight Banners army, and he has carried 600 large and small artillery pieces this time.

"Although the plan of the king of Gongshun is good, but let's send troops now, wouldn't we tell Xiao Li that we have already laid an ambush in southern Liaoning, if he retreats to the sea, what is the point of us setting up an ambush?"

Although Tezu called Kong Youde as the king of obedience, but there is no sense of respect at all, his father Borjin shrimp is the first red flag master awarded by the old slave after the fact, and established a great war for the Houjin in Liaodong, the first year of Tiancong, Borjin shrimp died of illness, because Tezu was still young at the time, and the old slave was lost at that time, Tezu did not take over as the owner of the red flag inlay.

After Hong Tai succeeded to the throne, in order to appease the heart of the Red Flag Army, he changed the title of Tezu to the Red Flag Gushan Ezhen, that is, one of the two ministers of the Red Flag, under the jurisdiction of ten Niu Lu's Eight Banner Soldiers, because the Red Flag Army and horses are basically from the Wanyan Department, so the status of Tezu in the Red Flag is even higher than that of the banner owner of Khalchu.

"That Ben Belle with the red flag and the Mongolian soldiers transferred to Nanguan, and then marched to Lushun, I think that the little Li thief will definitely think that we are the reinforcements sent to Lushun by the imperial court, and my father can continue to set up an ambush in the Great Black Mountain, so the little Li thief will definitely be tricked."

Karchu had just succeeded Yue Tuo, and it was just when he wanted to gain military merits and establish prestige, and he was eager to avenge Yue Tuo, but he agreed with Kong Youde's suggestion.

"What my son said is right, if you don't defeat Xiao Li Thief in Lushun, if you let his boat division attack from all sides, won't my Qing Dynasty be attacked everywhere? Khalchu this time you personally commanded twenty Niu Lu, for your father and then let Namutu lead the Mongolian soldiers to help, attack Lushun, remember that since it is to lure the enemy, you must have the appearance of luring the enemy, and you must not collapse at the first touch, otherwise Xiao Li thief will definitely be suspicious. ”

Manchuria is less than 10,000, Manchurian invincible, in the past 20 years, the Eight Banners have changed from the Houjin to the Qing Dynasty, and have laid down the huge territory of Liaodong, even if it is Prince Li Daishan, such a heavy minister of the Eight Banners, he is also convinced, he is afraid that his son will be too fake, so that Xiao Li Thief is puzzled.

"Amma, don't worry, the child knows the measure, and he will definitely let Xiao Li thief in."

Karchu replied to Dai Shan nonchalantly, although he was Dai Shan's son and a Manchurian clan born with a golden key, he was not ignorant of the battle array.

Manchurian clan commanders, this is a tradition, after Khalchu became an adult, he fought more battles, although he was not as famous as Azig and other famous generals, but he was also a great general who had repeatedly made military exploits.

The soldiers are very fast, and the current focus of the puppet Qing army is to deal with Hong Chengchou's 130,000 elite on the nine sides, and Shengjing's materials are mainly running to Jinzhou.

Dai Shan came to Liaonan only to bring a month's worth of grain and grass, so after planning to ambush Xiao Li Thief, he immediately divided his troops.

The Mongolian soldiers of the 20 Niu Lu of the Red Banner and the 10 Niu Lu of the Namutu Department of the Khalchu Self-command went straight to the direction of Nanguan along the Great Black Mountain.

Dai Shan ordered Kong Youde to set up artillery positions in the Great Black Mountain and the Little Black Mountain, and ordered the Zhenghong Banner Gushan Ezhen Shu Mulu and Kong Youde's fierce generals to transfer 3,000 troops to the Little Black Mountain, intending to annihilate the army of Xiao Li thieves who crossed the sea in one fell swoop.
