The 634th round of Houjin attacked
Shenyang, Khan's Palace.
In the Chongzheng Palace, Huang Taiji walked around with some boredom.
The purpose of accumulating strength these days is to fight with Yang Chengying.
was stunned to find that the other party didn't want to fight you at all, but like peeling an onion, peeling off your skin layer by layer, up to the core.
There is nothing more painful than this.
"Great Khan, Yang Chengying must not be allowed to recruit Lin Dan Khan again."
Yue Xuan, who was known for his strategic vision, persuaded: "When he returns triumphantly, the Mongolian tribes will hear the news and be ready to move." By then, it was too late. ”
"We can send troops while he's on an expedition!"
Sakhalian said: "Don't fight Anshan, but go straight to the Li Dynasty from Phoenix." ”
Cutting off Yang Chengying's maritime trade routes was indeed a clever move.
Huang Taiji shook his head: "This plan seems to be successful, but it has a fatal weakness. ”
"What weakness?"
Sakhalian asked curiously, ignoring the courtesy of the monarch and his courtiers.
In addition to him, the other Baylor ministers present at the meeting were also curious.
They can't think of it.
Looking at the group of ministers with doubts on their faces, Huang Taiji sighed deeply: "Yang Chengying has sailors under his command, and there are countless warships.
All they have to do is take the royal family and the nobles away by boat, and then we can only plunder the goods and take the people back. ”
Azig waited for Baylor, who was rough by nature, with a confused face.
These people thought, what's wrong with that?
Dolgon's eyes lit up, but he immediately retracted.
While a group of people were looking around, a voice rang out: "In doing so, we have at least three goals that have not been achieved." ”
When everyone looked back, it turned out to be Liu Xingzuo, and they all pricked up their ears to listen.
Liu Xingzuo said: "First, the strategic goal of forcing Yang Chengying to return to his division and stop oppressing Mongolia has not been achieved.
Second, it will only tie Li Chao to Yang Chengying's chariot even more, and support him with all his might.
Third, it cut off its own trade routes, and could no longer supply urgently needed goods such as grain, cattle, and pig iron. ”
And when they heard this, they understood.
Huang Taiji nodded with satisfaction, although he didn't trust Liu Xingzuo in his heart, he had to admit his ability.
It's a pity that such a talent has deviated from morality because of his father's policy of killing people without food.
"That's it."
Huang Taiji put away his complicated thoughts and agreed: "Moreover, since there is only one route into the Li Dynasty, it is easy to be attacked by the Leopard Tao camp.
They harassed us not once or twice, and Amin was forced to withdraw his troops because of this. ”
The real reason why Amin did not withdraw his army was that he wanted to establish himself as king in the Li Dynasty, because he had been punished and banned and was lightly covered up by Huang Taiji.
"So, what should I do?"
Yue Yu and the other young Baylors all frowned.
Huang Taiji thought for a while, and had to say: "So far, it can only be hard-hitting." ”
All at once the people were in good spirits.
"Zilharang!"
"Yes."
"Dodor."
"Brother is here."
"You lead the troops and horses of your headquarters to lure the enemy and destroy the Ming army of Kong Youde."
Huang Taiji was afraid that they would rigidly carry out the order, so he added: "The general is outside, the king's order is not subject to it, and you act when you see the opportunity." ”
"Huh."
Zilharan and Dodor bowed and withdrew.
"Secretaries."
"Great Khan!"
"Each of them counted their soldiers and horses, and set off with me, as the follow-up of the two of them, ready to fight to the death with Yang Chengying."
"Huh."
The news of the dispatch of the blue and white flags of the Houjin Army soon reached the ears of Kong Youde, the front-line commander of the Liaodong Army.
Kong Youde immediately summoned the generals in Anshan City to discuss the matter.
Li Weiluan, who was the supervisor of the army, said: "I have sent someone to remind me a little earlier, after hearing that the Second Army has built a car battalion, the Tatars will come to attack Anshan from the front.
Sure enough, it was said by Jing Lu that the Tartars were going to force Jing Lu to lead the army to a decisive battle. ”
"The last general thinks that we should divide our troops into two routes, one under the command of General Kong, and move randomly to the west of Anshan City. Hold on to the city all the way and prepare for a long siege. ”
Deputy Commander Peng Qigu pointed to the topographic map and suggested to Kong Youde.
The geography of Anshan, to the west is the plain, which is suitable for cavalry combat. To the east was mountainous terrain, which was not conducive to the march of large armies and baggage.
Moreover, if the cavalry stays in the city, it is tantamount to self-restraint.
Kong Youde nodded: "This makes sense." After I left the city, General Peng and General Li commanded the army to defend the city, and I sent someone to report to the strategy and inform Shang Kexi. ”
The congregation will feel that it is appropriate.
As a result, the ministries followed the plan drawn up.
On Anshan City, the sentinels rang the copper bell vigorously, and the crisp copper bell, accompanied by the summer wind, spread to the distance.
The people heard the brass bells, skillfully rolled up their belongings, put them in boxes on carts, and pushed them out of the yard.
The chickens and ducks are put in cages and also placed on carts.
Men carts, women and children drive cattle.
Led by the village chief, they entered the nearby pier in an orderly manner.
The Ming army guarding the pier platform pushed the cannon up the city wall on the one hand, and took out the roster to count the people.
After counting, he immediately closed the heavy door.
Men go to the city, women cook, and children stay with the elderly.
When night falls, the bells of peace ring everywhere.
The vast land was empty, as if no one had ever lived here.
Only grain fields exposed to the surface, vegetables ......
In the pier, people nervously faced Guan Erye, kneeling and praying.
The soldiers guarding the pier platform also lowered their heads and prayed to Emperor Guan's grandfather to hide their panic.
Spend the night in uneasiness.
In the early morning, the sound of iron hooves shattered the rare tranquility.
Soon, two well-trained armies appeared on the horizon.
Cavalry and infantry mixed and swept towards the village together.
"Report!"
The sentinel rode Pegasus to report: "The village ahead is empty, only the crops in the field. ”
"Damn, these guys are fast enough."
Zilharang scolded in a low voice, and then ordered: "Don't rob the crops, move forward quickly with me, and go straight to Anshan City." ”
"Huh." The sentry turned his horse's head and quickly left.
It was not that Zilharang had a sudden kindness, but that in his opinion, only the autumn harvest was worth plundering.
The Houjin army marched forward mightily.
Under the gaze of the people of Liaodong in the pier, they quickly moved forward.
Didn't the Tartars come to beat us this time?
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Duoduo also noticed the people in the pier city, and said to Zilharang, "Belle, why don't we let the people hide in the pier?" ”
"Didn't you see them have a cannon in the city?"
Zilharang replied while riding a horse: "We can't forget the Great Khan's instructions for a little profit.
We have only one goal, to lure Kong Youde's cavalry and surround them and annihilate them. ”
"So, how do we divide the work?" Duoduo asked.
"You are the most elite Zhengbai Banner under your command, of course, you will stay to fight an ambush, and I will personally lead the army to lure the enemy cavalry."
"That's it!"
