The eleventh episode captures the thief and captures the king first
It is also a helpless move to capture the enemy's main general among the ten thousand armies.
The Ming army was already very reluctant to defend the city, and it was even more unthinkable to fight in the field.
In addition, Nurhachi changed his thinking and was determined to sweep the vast area north of Liaoyang to Haizhouwei and destroy the economic base near Liaoyang.
Allowing the situation to develop like this would be extremely unfavorable to the Ming army.
Therefore, Yang Chengying temporarily formulated a very risky strategy.
Use Li Yongfang as bait to fish out Nurhachi.
Even if Nurhachi can't be captured alive, he may be able to catch one or two generals who come to visit, then they will be hostages to negotiate with Nurhachi and force Houjin to withdraw his troops.
The first step went exceptionally well.
Yang Cheng should have calculated that Nurhachi used Li Yongfang as a "big banner" to recruit the generals of the Ming army, and he would not ignore him.
Moreover, the vast majority of the soldiers in charge of the siege of Houjin fled to the north.
This leads to a brief information gap.
Sure enough, Nurhachi only brought a small number of personal guards and came to Li Yongfang's camp stationed in Qianshan to visit Li Yongfang.
But people are not as good as heaven, but I didn't expect to kill a Liu Xingzuo halfway.
Yang Chengying, who was hiding behind the big tent, saw the veteran with white hair and unusually cold eyes, riding a horse to the camp gate.
Yang Chengying arranged for the "Houjin" soldiers guarding the door, and when he saw this person, he knelt down on one knee: "See the Great Khan!" β
Hearing this, Yang Chengying immediately perked up.
Immediately afterwards, I saw a middle-aged man in his thirties with a dignified appearance following closely, and dozens of elite soldiers behind him.
Yang Chengying's heart sank, this Nurhachi was too "cautious", and he was so careful when visiting the sick number.
"Where's the Forehead?" Nurhachi looked anxious and asked eagerly.
With that, he turned over and dismounted, and walked along.
That's great!
As long as Nurhachi gets closer, even if there are more guards, Yang Chengying is confident that he can capture him in one fell swoop.
However, at this moment, a rapid and loud voice came from behind Nurhachi.
"Great Khan! There is fraud in it. β
Fraud?
Nurhachi heard Liu Xingzuo's voice behind him, and stopped without thinking about it, and looked back at Liu Xingzuo.
Depend on! I was spotted!
Yang Chengying was forced to be helpless, so he had to do it in advance.
"Everyone, target slave chieftain, follow meβrush!"
The Ming troops who were ambushed in the camp fought together.
Like a mountain of seas, he threw himself at Nurhachi, who was standing at the gate of the camp.
"Ambush!" Nurha stared at the Ming army that seemed to appear out of thin air and swooped down on him like a tide.
The only thought that crossed my head, run!
However, he was stunned to find that he could not move.
It's an instinctive reaction to a huge contrast.
The perennial battlefield battles have also created Nurhachi's ruthlessness when he encounters danger.
He found that his legs did not obey the call, so he ruthlessly pulled out the dagger at his waist and stabbed him hard in the thigh.
When he landed, the blood flowed like a torrent.
The huge stinging pain also made Nurha's body move, and he ran with his legs raised.
"Slave chief, let's take it with your hands tied!"
At this time, Yang Chengying was less than ten steps away from him, raising his knife in his right hand and reaching forward with his left hand.
"Who dares to hurt my Khan King!"
With this shout, a large knife fell from the sky and slashed at Nurhachi's back.
Sensing the danger, Yang Chengying instinctively retracted his left hand.
His hands were about to touch Nurhachi's robe, and he was cut off like this.
The difference is a thousand miles!
Blade into the ground, bam! Kick up a puff of dust.
Yang Chengying was annoyed and angry, and danced the knife in his right hand to take the enemy general.
The opponent raised his sword to meet the battle.
"Bell!"
A confrontation, Mars everywhere.
The huge impact force made the two figures retreat at the same time.
This guy has a lot of strength!
Liu Xingzuo only took one move, and he felt that his arm was numb.
Yang Chengying looked at Nurhachi, who was about to join the guards, and knew that the miracle of capturing Nurhachi was gone.
At the moment, he either quickly withdrew from the battle and took Li Yongfang away; Either catch the fierce general in front of you and think about the next step.
There is no doubt that the latter is the most dangerous option.
Just as Yang Chengying was about to retreat, a sound of horses' hooves sounded outside the camp gate.
Oops! Yang Chengying had a sigh in his heart, and he was the main force of Houjin.
Yang Chengying didn't know that it was Liu Xingzuo's men and horses, and only judged by the sound of a large number of horses' hooves, and mistakenly thought that it was the main force of the Later Jin, and the Ming army did not have such a considerable number of cavalry in the field.
There is no way back, only one step forward.
Yang Cheng should make a quick decision, while ordering the Ming army to set up a formation to meet the enemy and cut off the rear road of the enemy general in front of him, and on the other hand, he waved his knife and pounced on the enemy general in front of him.
Caught this person, plus Li Yongfang, who was arrested earlier, negotiated with Houjin and escaped from the encirclement.
Seeing the opponent's series of moves, Liu Xingzuo was surprised in his heart, but also secretly admired.
A good young general, in the face of the enemy's reinforcements, did not choose to retreat in a hurry, but chose to catch my big fish and use it as a bargaining chip for negotiations.
For a while, Liu Xingzuo's eyes were full of fanatical fighting intent.
The two faced each other again.
"Bell...... Clang......! β
Yang Chengying had been trained for a long time in the previous life, coupled with his youth and strength, he quickly gained the upper hand.
Liu Xingzuo didn't have the idea of desperately, unless the old Khan King was not a person, he could still be released even if he was arrested.
No one dared to say that it was a shame to be caught.
One is desperate to survive, and the other completes the task and chooses to live.
This is long and one after another, and soon, Liu Xingzuo was caught by Yang Chengying.
The situation outside has also changed as expected.
The camp was surrounded by Houjin soldiers, who were fronted by shield-mounted soldiers, followed by crossbows and a small number of firearms, followed by roving cavalry.
The number is unknown, but they are all enemies at a glance.
This aroused Yang Chengying's hidden pride.
He laughed: "If you want Li Yongfang and this person in my hands to become a hedgehog, you can do it!" β
After that, Li Yongfang, who was tied into a zongzi, was lifted out of the big tent and put it together with the Houjin generals who were also tied up.
The goal is to get the enemy to throw a rat trap.
Sure enough, the Houjin soldiers looked at each other and did not move.
Unexpectedly, Li Yongfang was not happy when he saw the captured Houjin generals.
"It's not someone else who was arrested, it's you, Liu Aita!"
Liu Xingzuo smiled bitterly, "You think I'm willing to stay with you, I was arrested to protect the old Khan King." β
"Ahh The Old Khan King is coming? Li Yongfang looked around, but he didn't see the old Khan King.
Liu Xingzuo glanced at him, "No need to look for it." The old Khan King was wounded, and he is probably bandaging his wounds at this time, and he will be able to see it in a while. β
Li Yongfang realized that he was stupid at this time, but he was embarrassed to say it, so he turned his head away and didn't look at Liu Xingzuo.
When the two were talking, Yang Chengying didn't stop them.
He was completely shocked by Liu Xingzuo's name at this time.
Unexpectedly, he and Liu Xingzuo, the defender of the Later Jin Dynasty in southern Liaoning and a loyal minister who later returned to the Ming Dynasty, met so dramatically.
Or on such an occasion, it's really providential!
