Chapter 392: The Battle of Ningjin (3)

"Is this letter really from Huang Taiji asking you to give me?"

Glancing at the unopened letter on the table, and then at the Ming Jun kneeling behind the table, Ji Yong asked in a cold voice.

"Yes, after the Jianlu gave us the letter, he threw us out of the camp."

Ming Jun knelt on the ground and said.

"There are garrisons all around, and I have nowhere to go, so I have to go into the city."

Another Ming soldier cried: "We are also forced to beg Gonggong Ji to spare his life." ”

"Take them down and take care of them."

With a wave of his hand, several soldiers stepped forward to drag the kneeling Ming army away.

"Father-in-law Ji spares his life!"

The cries for help grew farther and farther until they disappeared.

Ji's intentions are getting more and more chaotic.

Jinzhou City was surrounded on all sides, and he had become a turtle in an urn.

If you are in Yang Chengying's Gaizhou, you don't have to worry about it at all, but this is Jinzhou.

In the past, I did a lot of bad things to vent my distress. Now that it's like this, what if the Ming army rises up and kills themselves?

But surrendered to Huang Taiji, haven't you heard that Jianyu reuses eunuchs?

Never mind!

Lives matter.

Ji Yong picked up the letter and went to Zhao Shujiao in person.

At this time, Zhao Shujiao had learned that Ji Yong had a letter of persuasion from Huang Taiji, and he began to wonder in his heart that those generals might listen to Ji Yong's words.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the soldier's report on the use of discipline.

Zhao Shujiao hurriedly got up to greet him.

"Old General Zhao, here is a letter from Huang Taiji to our family to persuade us to surrender."

Ji Yong said straight to the point: "Now, our family will give this letter to the old general." ”

As he spoke, he put the letter on Zhao Shujiao's desk.

Seeing Ji Yong like this, Zhao Shujiao was both a little moved and secretly relieved.

"To tell you the truth, I also received a letter of persuasion from Huang Taiji here."

Zhao Shujiao immediately took out the letter he had received and put it on the table.

"Jianyu's intentions are ill-intentioned, and he deliberately causes dissatisfaction between our family and the old general."

When Ji Yong saw the letter, he frowned and said, "Is there anything the old general can do?" ”

"Yes. The enemy came from afar, and he also divided his troops to defend General Yang's army, which was destined to stay for a short time. ”

Zhao Shujiao said confidently: "We can send envoys to pretend to negotiate peace, and take this opportunity to delay time." The longer the delay, the more favorable the defense will be. ”

Ji Yong nodded and agreed to do so.

So, Zhao led the sect to send two Beiyu out of the city, and in the name of him and Ji Yong, respectively, said that everything was good to discuss with Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji listened to it and said with a smile: "You two tell the old general and Gonggong Ji that I am different from my father, I am very benevolent and kind, love the people like a son, and never engage in conspiracy and trickery.

If the two of you can surrender our army with Jinzhou, I will definitely allow them to be a high-ranking official. ”

"The Great Khan is sincere, and I am grateful."

One of the Ming commanders said angrily: "Early tomorrow morning, we will definitely surrender the city." ”

The emperor was overjoyed and asked Hauge to send them out of the camp.

After the two Beiyu left, Liu Xingzhi was puzzled: "Great Khan, these two people are fake surrenders at first glance, and they are obviously deliberately delaying time. ”

"It doesn't matter." Huang Taiji smiled slightly, "This Great Khan will also tear a hole and let the Zhao Sect in the city send people out of the city to ask for help." ”

That night, there was a report from the Houjin army that the Ming army sentry rode out of the city from the west gate and went straight to the south. The soldiers, as the Great Khan wanted, neither intercepted nor pursued.

Huang Taiji was very happy and told the Houjin army in the west to be on guard and wait for the big fish to be caught.

However, after waiting for a day, there was no sign of reinforcements from the Ming army.

I also saw Zhao Shujiao and Ji Yong surrender.

"The Ming army used to always rescue, but now it is not fooled."

After getting the information, Huang Taiji was a little annoyed: "It is estimated that they are all as good as Yang Chengying, and they have played this method." ”

Hauge said: "Father Khan, if it drags on like this, the grain and grass will not be able to be helped." Please allow the child to lead the army to attack the city, and he will definitely take Jinzhou. ”

"There are no Hongyi cannons in Jinzhou City, and there are no well-trained elite soldiers."

Liu Xingzhi echoed: "I think we can attack the city and capture Jinzhou in one fell swoop." ”

After hearing this, Huang Taiji felt that it was the only way.

He ordered the whole army to focus on attacking the west and north of the city, and said that he would personally supervise the battle.

After this dozen, Huang Taiji found that he had encountered hard stubble.

The Houjin army took the chariot as the front line, carried the ladder and the chariot to attack the city, and launched a fierce attack on the two places with the card as the defense.

The stormed for half a day, and there was no progress at all.

Huang Taiji then ordered the offensive to be suspended, and at the evening military meeting adjusted the strategy, and the whole army stormed the west of the city.

The fierce fighting continued from the early morning of the next day to the night, and the Houjin army still made no progress.

Huang Taiji on horseback had a dark face, looking at the Ming army flag fluttering in the wind in the distance, and his teeth itched with hatred.

"Great Khan, the soldiers are exhausted, and if they continue to fight like this, they will only increase unnecessary casualties."

Liu Xingzhi, who was on the side, noticed Huang Taiji's expression, and still persuaded: "It's better to withdraw the army and recuperate, and wait for the soldiers to rest fully before raising troops to attack the city." ”

"It's disgusting! Zhao Shujiao didn't have a cannon in his hand, but it was still so difficult to bite. ”

Huang Taiji gritted his teeth and said, "No matter what, I have to get a cannon, even if it's one." ”

Hearing this, Liu Xingzhi breathed a sigh of relief.

Clearly, the Great Khan did not lose his sharp and far-reaching mind because of the defeat in the attack.

"In the entire Ming Dynasty, I'm afraid only Yang Chengying has a huge number of cannons there."

Liu Xingzhi thought for a while and said, "Perhaps, we can change our thinking and not engage in it from Yang Chengying." ”

Huang Taiji instantly became interested, turned around and asked, "Fifth Brother Liu, do you have any good ideas?" ”

"I heard that there is another source of artillery, which is Jingying. We can get it from there, but it's not convenient to get around, and even if we get it, we can't ship it. ”

Liu Xingzhi said with a wry smile.

Huang Taiji didn't think that Liu Xingzhi was talking nonsense, so he thought about it seriously.

Haugezerma leaned in.

"Father Khan, the soldiers are exhausted, let's withdraw the army for the time being."

Hauge said angrily.

Huang Taiji nodded and ordered: "The whole army retreats for five miles, and then comes to attack the city when it is well rested." In addition, take away the remains of the soldiers under the city, so as not to leave the enemy with a chance to cut off their heads. ”

"Huh."

Hauge thought it was difficult, and was even ready to be scolded. As soon as he heard this, he immediately conveyed the order with joy.

He was just about to leave, but was stopped by Huang Taiji: "Tell the person who dragged the corpse to just drag it slowly, and if the Ming army took the opportunity to go out of the city, they would counterattack and enter the city." ”

"Huh." Hauge rode away on his fast horse.

As a result, after waiting all night, no one went out of the city to grab the head.

Huang Taiji was so depressed that he ordered the remains to be gathered in a nearby brick kiln and burned.

Looking at the skyrocketing fire in the brick kiln, Huang Taiji was at a loss.

Is he really going to be trapped in the land of Liaodong, waiting to be approached by Yang Chengying and Yuan Chonghuan step by step until the fall of the Dajin Kingdom?

Didn't the Ming army all repay their merits with their heads?

The reason why Yang Chengying doesn't do so is because he has money and land, and he can do things according to his own ideas.

Yuan Chonghuan has 80,000 elite soldiers, and the financial resources are mainly provided by the Ming Court, why can't he grab the first rank?

Huang Taiji couldn't figure it out.
