"The last general commands."

Facing He Renlong, who was holding Shang Fang's sword, Zu Kuan finally lowered his head and received the military order issued by Sun Chuanting.

When he went south to aid Guannai and entered to suppress the Liukou, under the command of Lu Xiangsheng, Hong Chengchou, and Sun Chuanting, Zu Kuan had stayed.

Among the three, Sun Chuanting governed the army the strictest, the most ruthless, and the law was strict.

When he was in Henan, Zu Kuan was because he understood Lu Xiangsheng's character and saw that there were not many soldiers under Lu Xiangsheng's command, and he needed to rely on him to suppress him, so he dared to be presumptuous.

Hong Chengchou is experienced in handling things, has a deep background, and has been up and down for many years, so he will not be offended if he can.

However, Hong Chengchou basically did not have to worry about his life, at most he was excluded and treated coldly like Cao Wenzhao at the beginning.

But Sun Chuanting is different, Sun Chuanting has a straightforward personality and is sharp, he really dares to kill, and he is unmerciful and does not read half of the official face.

The battle of Heishuiyu, the great victory after the war should have been celebrated, but on that day, more than 20 people lost their heads, the highest official rank was the battalion general, and the highest official quality was a guard commander in Xi'an.

The reason why those generals were beheaded was very simple - they were ineffective in battle, and they were cowardly in battle.

In the past few months, Gao Qiqian and Lu Xiangsheng have been scolded by Sun Chuanting, that is, Yang Sichang and Liu Yuliang, who are now the first assistant of the cabinet, Sun Chuanting did not give him much face, and he bluntly said that he was wrong.

Sun Chuanting defeated the two blue flags of Dongyu in Zhending, and then relieved the siege of Jiazhuang to save the Xuan army from the danger of fire and water.

The good news conveyed to the Beijing Division, and the emperor even personally inscribed two poems for Sun Chuanting, and issued an edict to praise him, and then gave Shang Fang the sword, and handed over the power of the soldiers and horses of the governor Tianxia Qinwang, which originally belonged to Lu Xiangsheng, to Sun Chuanting.

Sun Chuanting can now be said to be a saint, and his momentum is in full swing.

Even if Sun Chuanting really killed him, he would die in vain, the ancestral family would not say anything, and the ancestral family would not dare to say anything.

The trumpets of the Qing army sounded one after another, constantly echoing, indicating that another wave of offensive of the Qing army was coming again.

"General......

The lieutenant general on his side stepped forward, his tone hesitant, and he was a little afraid to speak.

Zu Kuan didn't look at the lieutenant general beside him, but just clenched the horse lance in his hand and turned his head to look east.

The east is the position of the Chinese army and the former military, and it is also the position where Sun Chuanting is located.

The former army has been engaged in the battle for a long time, and those Shaanxi soldiers who he originally looked down on, and the Shaanxi soldiers who thought they would not last long, are now fighting back and forth with the Qing army, and the Qing army launched an offensive and was resolved one by one, without moving even half a step.

The deafening shouts of killing rolled in again, ringing in Zu Kuan's ears.

The Manchu voice that he was used to made Zu Kuan feel extremely uncomfortable this time.

Reason told him that he should keep in mind the instructions of the master of the family, preserve his strength, and not consume a large number of soldiers and horses in the pass.

The reason why their ancestral family can have such momentum and status depends on the soldiers and horses in their hands that can fight.

Once the loss is too heavy, the loss is too much, and the muscles and bones are broken, I am afraid that soon there will be a brocade guard with a holy decree to come to settle the accounts after the autumn, and calculate the sin of arrogance and arrogance over the years, and calculate the sin of trapping the city and losing land over the years.

But......

Zu Kuan clenched the horse lance in his hand, and the heavens and men fought in his heart.

He really wants to win once, even if it's just once, he doesn't want to escape, he doesn't want to leave, but everything is involuntarily, he is a member of the ancestral family, and he needs to act in the interests of the ancestral family.

Seeing with his own eyes that his homeland has fallen and he has been forced to leave his hometown for more than ten years, how could he ever be willing in his heart?

He was not without blood, and his ancestors did not throw their heads and sprinkle blood for the desire to restore the land.

When Sun Chengzong was there, they also tried to work hard, how many good men from Liaodong died in the big and small Linghe, and how many children of the ancestral family died.

Dalinghe City was besieged for two months, and Jiannu gathered heavy troops to come to reinforcements in a row, and Dalinghe City was shot and ran out of food.

In the city, he first killed war horses and ate horse meat, and when the horses were almost killed, he began to ...... Cannibalism.

The men who built the city were eaten first, then the soldiers who died of war and starvation, and finally they ate everything they could.

If there is no firewood, it is burned from human bones, and if there is no water to drink, it is necessary to drink human blood to quench thirst.

Two months ago, more than 30,000 people entered the city, and two months later only 11,000 left the city.

In the end, they still could not save the situation in Liaodong......

The sound of artillery in the direction of the Chinese army resounded, like thunder, shaking the clouds and shaking Zu Kuan's heart.

The Shaanxi soldiers in front of him, who were lined up in a military formation and would not retreat, reminded Zu Kuan of a past incident a long time ago.

The Jiannu army surrounded Shenyang, and all the towns in Jiliao were afraid of the Jiannu soldiers and did not dare to fight.

Those Sichuan soldiers and generals who came from the south asked for war one after another.

To this day, he still remembers the words of one of the Sichuan generals:

"My generation can't save Shen, what are you doing in the past three years!"

In the first battle of the Hunhe River, the soldiers of the two towns of Sichuan and Zhejiang fought to the death outside Shenyang, but they who should have defended Shenyang the most ......

Zu Kuan clenched his teeth and clenched the horse lance in his hand, because his arm was even trembling constantly, he finally made up his mind.

"Back to the governor, the governor has the will to win, and he also has the heart to die!"

"Order the whole army, line up to meet the enemy, and kill slaves with me!"

"Slave Killer !!"

As Zu Kuan raised the horse lance in his hand, he rode out of battle.

Around him, thousands of Liaodong armor cavalry joined the battlefield.

"Slave Killer !!"

With the earth-shattering shouts, the originally crumbling defense line on the right flank of the Ming army was stabilized in an instant.

Zu Kuan has been holding his breath all the time, why haven't the soldiers below been holding his breath all the time?

One general is incompetent, tired to death of the three armies, which ordinary Liao people don't want to regain their land and don't want to return to their hometown?

Liaodong is the place where their ancestors have lived for generations, the resting place of their ancestors, and the hometown where they grew up!

……

The change in the right wing was not able to escape Dorgon eyes.

After experiencing the initial temptation, he had already thought of a strategy, so he concentrated on the elite to attack Zu Kuan, who was on the right flank of the Ming army.

Although the cavalry of Liaodong was not bad, their fighting will was weak, and those Ming generals cherished their own families too much, even more than the banner owners of each banner.

Once they suffer too many losses, they will retreat quickly, and rarely fight back desperately.

Dolgon's original intention was to open a gap from the right flank of the Ming army, and then defeat the large army of the Ming army in one fell swoop.

The current change in the situation was indeed beyond Dolgon's expectations, and the Liaodong Army, which had been reluctant to fight, suddenly rose bravely.

"Order the armies, slow down the offensive, the cavalry on both wings is mainly attrition, and the front army is also mainly attrition, first consume the Ming army's gunpowder projectiles, and let the auxiliary soldiers in the army follow the battle."

"Take my warrant and send orders to the battalions, and take prisoners from the previous camp to fill the vacancies."

The plan to defeat the Ming army in one fell swoop is already impossible, and the best way at this stage is naturally to stabilize the situation and slowly figure it out.

The Ming army's car battalions generally lacked the ability to take the initiative to attack, but the defensive effect was outstanding, and it was difficult to break through without heavy artillery, and it was difficult to accept the losses even if they attacked forcibly.

The opportunity to attack first has been lost, since it cannot be broken for the time being, then slow down the offensive first, and then fill it with cannon fodder.

Filling the line with cannon fodder consumed the enemy's gunpowder and projectiles, and the tactics of melee engagement also allowed them to defeat many Ming troops.

The frequency of artillery bombardment of the Ming army is slowly decreasing, and the interval between artillery shots is gradually increasing.

In many cases, when encountering the Ming army's car battalion without heavy artillery, such a method can often minimize losses.

Dolgon is not a reckless man, so he naturally chooses the most suitable attack method for the moment according to the situation on the battlefield.

Long before planning the battle with the Ming army, he had already thought about how to deal with various situations.

Several Tang horses, who had received the military order, did not dare to slack off, and hurried all the way down, and after getting off the lookout, they stepped on their war horses in three steps and two steps, and galloped straight in the direction of the battalions.

Although I don't know why the Ming army's will to fight suddenly became stronger, these things are not relevant for the time being.

Most importantly, the defense line of Jinan City is crumbling.

Tan Tai, who was in charge of commanding the attack on Jinan City, received good news that the front of the Jinan defenders was getting weaker and weaker, and it was already at the end of the crossbow.

There are more and more breakthroughs, and it should be possible to break through the city wall and enter Jinan around noon.

The Ming army in Jinan City has reached the point of exhaustion, and the materials for defending the city are almost used.

Tan Tai still has more than 10,000 people there, and he only needs to break through Jinan City, and the soldiers and horses under Tan Tai's command can free their hands and feet.

Mobilize those soldiers and horses who are still in isolation, guard the gates of Jinan, and occupy the city of Jinan.

More than 10,000 people under Tan Tai's command are enough to influence the situation on the battlefield, and Tan Tai only needs to lead a partial food to go around to the rear or flank of the Ming army during the fierce battle, he can change the stalemate on the battlefield and give the Ming army a fatal blow.

So now Dorgon was not as anxious as before, and now he was much calmer.

Because, victory is close at hand, it is only a matter of time.

The Ming army in front of him is already the only division that dares to fight in the entire Ming Kingdom.

It only needs to defeat this army of the Ming Kingdom, then the residual power is enough to deter the army of the Ming Kingdom Zhulu Qin King.

The rest of the Ming army, in order to protect the safety of their Beijing division, feared defeat and did not dare to invite attack, so they could only sit back and watch them.

At that time, they will really feel like they have entered no man's land in this Ming country, and no Ming army will dare to fight with them!

Captured Jinan, defeated the Ming army, captured hundreds of thousands of people and animals, and obtained nearly one million taels of gold and silver.

With such a feat, his reputation will also reach its peak completely, and when the time comes, even if Huang Taiji really wants to move him, he also needs to throw a rat trap, consider the gains and losses, and he will not do it again.

Huang Taiji's body is now deteriorating, and he has long lost his original ambition and determination, nor does he have the vitality of his youth......

Dorgon tilted his head slightly, turned to the side, and looked at the blue flag flying in the direction of the right flank.

"Inform Tan Tai that after the capture of Jinan, he still let his subordinates enter the city first, but the battle of the Daqing River is urgent, so let him attack the Ming army from the right leading elite cavalry."

"After breaking through this Ming army, our army will have no opponent in the Ming Kingdom! It was agreed that the harvest would remain unchanged, and I would divide half of the harvest from the white flag. ”

Dolgon's eyes were fixed, and he gave the order in a cold voice.

Although Huang Taiji is now in control of the government and has great power, which has weakened many of the powers that originally belonged to the banner owners, the banner owners are still extremely powerful, and the position of the unification is ...... It's not that he doesn't have a chance......

It's just that there are still too many obstacles and too many troubles.

They all need to be swept away......

……

"Half of the harvest...... Hahaha! ”

Tan Tai first smiled at the corner of his mouth, and when he listened to the military order conveyed, his smile also turned into a laugh.

"You go back to General Fengyi."

Tan Tai raised the whip in his hand, rode on the war horse, and commanded condescendingly to the commander who came to convey the military order.

"After capturing Jinan, I will be ordered to immediately lead the elite cavalry to rush to the aid of the Daqing River battlefield."

Tan Tai finished replying to the order rider who came to report the news, and his eyes turned to the head of Jinan City.

The great city, which they had been attacking for nine days, was about to be destroyed.

Jinan is the location of the Shandong Political Department of the Ming Kingdom, and it is also the most prosperous and prosperous place in the whole Ming Kingdom Shandong.

In fact, Tan Tai is now a little grateful to the Ming army, if it weren't for the Ming army that came from Texas, then he would not have had the opportunity to take the power to enter the city first from Dolgon's hands, and it would be even more impossible to get a piece of the harvest of the white flag.

It's a good thing to go to war......

On the walls of Jinan, the banners of the Ming army were becoming fewer and fewer, and the resistance was getting weaker and weaker.

The defenders of Jinan are now only barely surviving, and only one last wave of attacks can completely break the defense line of Jinan City.

When the time comes, everything in the city will be their harvest.

"I heard that there is a vassal king of the Ming Kingdom in Jinan City, it seems to be called King De, right?"

Tan Tai raised his horsewhip, pointed to the tower of Jinan City not far away, sneered, and ordered.

"Bahab, after the city of Jinan is broken, you take your subordinate Jiala, and I will transfer you three more Niu Lu to surround the Dewang Mansion for me."

"Wow."

Just beside Tan Tai, the Qing army's Yellow Banner Jia Lae Zhen Bahabu hurriedly replied with a smile.

The Qing army generals and colonels standing beside Tan Tai were also smiling and discussing what happened after the destruction of Jinan City.

Tan Tai was quite complacent, and since Dolgon had given him the power to enter the city first, he naturally wouldn't be polite to Dolgon.

I heard that the vassal kings of the country are very wealthy, and the feudal kings who are sealed in a prosperous place like Shandong have only countless wealth.

Not only wealth, but also the credit for the capture of Jinan will also be divided into his name.

This time, I am afraid that the harvest will far exceed his expectations.

Rao has seen a lot of strong winds and waves, but Tan Tai still can't hold back the excitement in his heart at this time.

Just as Tan Tai was staring at the tower of Jinan City with all his body, a rapid sound of horses' hooves suddenly came from the left side and interrupted his thoughts.

Tan Tai's face turned away with an angry face.

But before he could get angry, he was stunned by the news brought by Tangma.

"What did you say?"

"You say it again?!"

Tan Tai's expression was terrifying, as if he was going to choose someone to devour, he couldn't believe his ears.

"Isn't the main force of the Ming Kingdom in the Daqing River in the northwest?"

"How could there be a large army of Ming cavalry from the east of Jinan City!"
