Gaizhou, commanding the embassy.

got the news that Yang Chengying was going north, which made Liu Xingzhi, who stayed in Gaizhou, unable to sleep and eat.

At this time, he paced back and forth in the main hall, thinking about what to do.

"Report ......!"

A herald stepped inside, knelt on one knee, hugged his fists and said: "Fifth master, the city was captured by the enemy in half an hour, and all the three hundred soldiers in the fort were killed. ”

"Got it."

Liu Xingzhi waved his hand and asked the herald to retreat.

According to the previous report of the sentry, Yang Chengying did not bring many soldiers and horses, but it was really surprising that he captured a border fort so simply and decisively.

After thinking about it, the other party was Yang Chengying and was not surprised.

While he was thinking about it, another herald stepped inside: "Fifth Master, the guard of Xiong Yue Post is in a hurry, and the enemy is already approaching Xiong Yue Station. ”

"So fast!" Liu Xingzhi was taken aback.

From Deli Yingcheng to Xiongyueyi, it is about fifty-four kilometers, and it takes more than a day to march.

He remembered that there was a time difference on the way.

"Send an order to Guo Song, the guard general of Xiong Yueyi, and order him to wait for help." Liu Xingzhi calmly gave the order.

"Huh." The heralds retreated.

Does Liu Xingzhi plan to send troops to rescue?

The answer is not at all.

In addition to the fact that the main force of Gaizhou was taken by the second brother to fight the Thirteen Mountain Posts, the troops in the city were insufficient, and because even if the troops were sufficient, they should not be easily rescued.

Yang Chengying is the best at encircling the point to send reinforcements, luring the enemy to go deeper, intercepting the retreat, and besieging it.

Always concentrate forces to form a local advantage.

This set of tactics seems very simple, but it is very difficult to learn.

Anyway, Liu Xingzhi doesn't think he has this ability.

How many people have suffered this loss, and he Liu Xingzhi does not intend to touch this brow.

"Wait, in case Xiong Yueyi can't hold on, then ask for help from Guangning Dabeile."

Liu Xingzhi thought so in his heart.

Almost at the same time, Yang Chengying commanded the artillery under his command to build artillery positions across the Xiongyue River.

Xiongyueyi Border Fort, which is across the river from the artillery position, was a little numb after the guard Guo Song saw it.

The construction of a fort near the river was originally to increase the difficulty of the enemy's siege.

Unexpectedly, the enemy took advantage of this in turn and built an artillery position near the river.

Looking at the 3,000-pound heavy artillery, Guo Song felt that Xiong Yueyi was as crisp as a piece of tofu.

But he did not dare to rashly lead his army out of the city, because there were heavy infantry and firearms on the artillery positions waiting on duty, as well as cavalry!

On the artillery position, Sun Yuanhua fiddled with the measuring instruments, drew the firing table, and calculated the reasonable impact point.

Yang Chengying held a telescope and observed the enemy's city.

He had been here before, and he was very familiar with Xiong Yueyi, and he could see at a glance that this place was still the same.

"The enemy is ruthless enough to use them as a warning device."

Yang Chengying put down the binoculars and said with a smile.

"What do you mean by a warning device?" Wu Sangui felt fresh when he heard it.

"It's the equipment used for warnings, everyone else is a trap or something, they are people."

Yang Chengying explained briefly.

Wu Sangui said with a smile: "It's good that these surrendered Ming troops can eat well, what are the higher requirements."

It would be a waste to build them a fortified city. ”

"You must not think like that."

Yang Chengying reminded: "The beginning of a person's transformation from prosperity to decline is the beginning of this person's disregard for people. ”

"Huh?" Wu Sangui frowned slightly, feeling incomprehensible.

In his impression, the defenders of the Ming army's piers were not as good as the soldiers in Xiongyueyi, and they ate glutinous rice and vegetables.

Whoever can become a family member will have to slaughter the only sheep in the family to celebrate.

I've never seen any adults pity them, let alone a castle, and they don't even have a place to live.

"Do you know why Nurhachi stayed in Shenyang City and didn't go out at will?"

Yang Chengying should ask questions first, and then enlighten, as has always been.

Wu Sangui shook his head.

"Because the entire Liaodong region is full of contradictions under his rule."

After Yang Chengying finished speaking, he asked again: "Do you know why it is full of contradictions?" ”

"I know this, Nurhachi searched and killed people without food everywhere, which made the people's resentment boil."

Wu Sangui hurriedly said.

Yang Chengying asked: "Why are there a large number of people without food?" ”

"This ......," Wu Sangui smiled and shook his head.

"Because he carried out a policy of oppression, let each Han family support a bannerman, and these bannermen rode on their heads to make a fortune, causing the anger of the heavens and the resentment of the people."

"Hey, why didn't he open a warehouse and release grain to appease the people, but instead wanted to search and kill them?"

"Isn't this exactly what you didn't understand what I reminded you about, and that led to a very extreme approach."

Hearing this, Wu Sangui was thoughtful.

"If you can't do it, don't complain that Xiong Yueyi will be taken down by me immediately."

After Yang Chengying finished speaking, he looked ahead with a telescope.

At this time, Sun Yuanhua told Yang Chengying that it had been calibrated.

Yang Chengying ordered the cannon!

Boom, boom......

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The five Hongyi cannons were aimed at one point, and only two rounds were fired in unison, directly blasting a large gap in the city wall.

Before the soldiers defending the city understood what was going on, Yang Chengying ordered the river to be crossed.

A wooden plank was laid on the boat, and the soldiers of Jinzhou Town stepped on the plank and quickly crossed the river.

After crossing the river, they formed a formation and charged forward like a wall.

Guo Song saw that this was still a fart, and directly led the troops to retreat.

Evacuate to Yulinpu and make plans again.

As a result, Liu Xingzhi soon received a distress letter.

Yulin shop is not guaranteed!

"So fast, so fast......"

Liu Xingzhi saw between the lines of the distress letter that Yang Chengying was aggressive, and without the slightest hesitation, he hurriedly asked for help from Da Beile, who was in charge of the overall situation.

The letter for help was sent by Liu Xingzhi's personal guard Kuaima.

The rest of the people did not stop, and quickly reported to the big Belle Daishan who was on the front line of the Thirteen Mountains.

After Dai Shan saw it, he was quite surprised, and hurriedly summoned the generals to discuss.

"Amma, isn't this true, Gaizhou City is in danger?"

Shuo Zhen was shocked.

The two lines of defense set by Houjin were easily broken through, and the speed was even faster than that of the Eight Banners.

"There's no need for Liu Xingzhi to lie."

Dai Shan glanced at Liu Xingzuo and continued: "The letter said that Yang Chengying only brought about a thousand people, but he was very worried that Yang Chengying sent heavy troops to follow. ”

Yue Zhi said: "Luring the enemy deep and besieging it is Yang Chengying's usual trick. ”

was very contemptuous, Yue Zhi was beaten at that time, second only to Amin and Shuo Zhen, and the worst was Turge's forehead.

"Then there's no need to be so afraid, Fifth Brother Liu has 5,000 soldiers in his hands, and he is still afraid of more than 1,000 people?"

Shuo is straightforward and fast-talking, saying whatever comes to mind, completely ignoring whether his words hurt people.

Sure enough, Dai Shan coughed lightly: "Don't talk nonsense." Of the soldiers in Liu Laowu's hands, only 800 banners can really be fought, and the rest are newly surrendered Han troops, which are not reliable. ”

was scolded by his father like this, and Shuo Zhen shut his mouth.

Dai Shan looked at Liu Xingzuo: "Aita, what do you think of this matter?" ”

"With all due respect, Yang Chengying's purpose here is to target the treasury of Gaizhou and the people who are about to move."

Liu Xingzuo analyzed: "Judging from the speed of the siege, he carried heavy artillery, and Gaizhou City may not be able to resist it." ”

The implication is that no matter whether Yang Chengying lured the enemy deeper, or really brought a lot of soldiers. The other party attacked the city with all his might, but Liu Xingzhi couldn't resist it.

"If you don't rescue in time, you can give up Gaizhou." Liu Xingzuo said.

Abandon!

There was an uproar in the tent.
