Chapter 55: Old Eight, Don't Get Angry

Li Yunze, who was wearing armor all over his body, was still apprehensive when he walked on the shaky pontoon bridge.

After all, if you fall into the river, this armor body armor will not be able to float.

But he wanted to annihilate the main force of the Tartars in a battle so much that he did not hesitate to risk himself as the biggest bait to drag the Tartars from escaping.

Huang Taiji is a visionary who does not care about the gains and losses of one city or one place.

If he was ruthless and retreated north with his men and horses, or even retreated all the way into the deep mountains and old forests, it would be Li Yunze's turn.

There are still many problems with the Ming Dynasty, and it is impossible for him Li Yunze to fight guerrilla warfare with the Tartars all the time.

It's like being reluctant to let your daughter-in-law catch that, you have to have enough bait to pull the main force of the Tartars.

Behind Li Yunze was a big silk held by two strong men.

The cold wind of the early morning blew, and the big silk hunted in the wind.

The morale of the Ming army on the north shore was greatly boosted, and the soldiers of the Shenshu battalion stubbornly beat the Zhenglan flag back.

And the firecrackers standing on the bench also used rounds of intensive fire, bringing huge casualties to the Tartars.

By the time Li Yunze jumped off the pontoon bridge and stood on the north bank of the Daling River, the Tartars' offensive had collapsed.

The craftsmen of the auxiliary battalion occupied a pontoon bridge, quickly brought over a large number of timber boxes, and set up a viewing platform dozens of steps away from the pontoon bridge.

He walked up to the viewing platform, which was more than five meters high, and motioned to the wrestler holding the big sword, "Put it behind me." ”

At this time, Zhao Shujiao and Lu Xiangsheng of the Shenshu Camp had already rushed to the "Long Live Ten Thousand Golden Body..."

"Don't say anything like that." Li Yunze looked at the two of them, "The Tartar army rushed over, can you bear it?" ”

The two glanced at each other and nodded in unison, "Yes!" ”

"Zhao rated." Li Yunze nodded, and then turned his head to look at Cao Bianjiao who was standing behind him, "And you, go and command the soldiers and horses to fight." Lu Xiangsheng stayed. ”

Wang Chengen, who looked nervous, hugged Mazha and put it on the viewing platform.

Li Yunze turned his head and instructed him, "Case, warm the pot of wine again, don't want the food, bring two cans." ”

Wang Chengen, who hurriedly responded, turned around and ran down again.

Sitting down on Maza, Li Yunze motioned to Lu Xiangsheng on the side, "After defeating the Tartars, how should we govern Liaodi?" ”

Hearing the sound of the strings and knowing the meaning of elegance, as soon as he asked like this, Lu Xiangsheng immediately had an understanding.

After thinking for a while, he responded, "Long live, when the displaced people are recruited to return to Liaodi, and the fields are distributed to resume production." Rebuild roads and canals, restore trade routes..."

"None of that matters." Li Yunze waved his hand impatiently, "How to deal with the remnants of the Tartars?" ”

After a moment of silence, Lu Xiangsheng responded, "Be suppressed." ”

"Hmm." Li Yunze, who was sitting on Maza, adjusted slightly, and nodded slightly, "After pacifying the Tatars, I will divide Liaodi into several provinces, and you will be the governor of Liaodi, and you will be in charge of military and civilian affairs." ”

Lu Xiangsheng was shocked, and subconsciously looked at Sun Chengzong, who was about to go up to the viewing platform, "Long live, everything in Liaodi has always been handled by Sun Ge..."

"He's going to beg for bones."

Huang Taiji smiled mildly and gestured to Mang Gurtai, who had returned from defeat, "Sixth brother has worked hard, and he will heal." Later, the sixth brother will be asked to overcome all obstacles for Dajin. ”

When Mang Gurtai went to heal his wounds, Huang Taiji looked around at the princes and ministers, "Everyone, what kind of argument?" ”

"You want me to say." Abatai was the first to jump out, "Minggou is ruthless this time, it's better to retreat for the time being." Stretch their supply lines, cut off the grain routes, and fight again. ”

At this time, Houjin is still a bandit group.

The core of their strategy is still the bandit mentality of bullying the weak and fearing the hard.

The Ming army facing today is so strong, if you can't bite it, don't gnaw, run away first and then find a chance.

Hearing Abatai's proposal, many people approved.

"Seven." Huang Taiji sneered again and again, "In this situation, how can we retreat if we say retreat!" ”

He raised his horsewhip and pointed to the battalion, "Do you want the military food and grass in the barracks?" Do you want the minions who are doing the work? If we retreat now, believe it or not, those Mongols will run away and never come back! ”

"Eighth." Seeing that Huang Taiji was furious, Dai Shan persuaded him with kind words, "We all know what you said, but the Ming army in front of me is difficult to bite, and I estimate that it is even more difficult to fight than those on the bank of the Hunhe River back then..."

"Second brother!" Huang Taiji interrupted Dai Shan's words: "Without military supplies, grain and grass, from here to Shenyang City hundreds of miles of wild roads, do you want us to gnaw grass all the way back?" Now it's freezing, and without tents and firewood, half of the people can freeze to death in one night! ”

He took a deep breath and pointed to the opposite side with his horsewhip, "You tell me that none of the cavalry of the Ming army appeared, where did they go?" ”

They all fought old battles, so they naturally knew that the Ming cavalry did not appear at this time, so they must have taken a detour to the back.

"The cavalry of the Ming army attacked all the way, and when we return to Shenyang City, how many people and horses will be left? When the Ming army surrounds me, where else can you run back to the old city of Hetuala? ”

On a field journey of several hundred miles from the Daling River to Shenyang City, there was no supply and a large number of Ming troops attacked and disturbed, and the losses along the way were bound to be extremely heavy.

"The Emperor of the Ming Kingdom on the other side." Huang Taiji squinted his eyes and looked at the big silk fluttering in the wind in the distance, "It's just that I calculated these and caught us off guard." I want to fight, but I don't have the determination. I want to run, but I can't bear to. Okay, that's good. ”

Li Yunze's surprise attack really hit the Tartar's waist and eye hard. Even if they want to run, they don't have time to pack up military supplies.

They didn't have time to go to the camp to collect minions, food, grass and military supplies, and without these wild lands that wanted to span hundreds of miles, it made people's scalps tingle just to think about it.

"Let's come over this time and bring all the grain and grass that can be used." Huang Taiji talked about another fatal thing: "If we lose this batch of military funds, grain and grass, we won't even be able to survive next year." ”

At this time, Abatai complained a few words, "Then go and grab it." ”

Huang Taiji, who was already angry with Li Yunze's calculations, was furious when he heard this, and immediately whipped it over.

"Can you do it when these Ming soldiers are dead? People pushed all the way to the city of Shenyang, where are we going to rob it? ”

Abatai, whose face was directly drawn with a bloodstain, hurriedly dismounted and saluted, "The Great Khan is angry, it's the slave's mistake." ”

Abatai's background is not high, he is considered a child, and his status among the brothers has always been very low.

Not to mention the four great Baylors, even a young man like Dorgon Dordor, his status is far higher than him.

"Old eight, don't get angry." Dai Shan did peace again, and the old man said, "Let's say what to do." ”

"Hit!"

As a person who has made up his mind, Huang Taiji immediately made up his mind: "Instead of throwing the warriors on the road of hundreds of miles and letting those Mongols flee on their own, it is better to fight a decisive battle today." This battle cannot be avoided, and we cannot afford to lose military resources. ”

Huang Taiji doesn't care about a city or a place, but he can't care less about the soldiers and horses in his hands.

There are not many Tatars, and if they abandon their grain and grass and flee back to Shenyang City, they will have to lose at least half of their soldiers and horses, as well as all the tribal cannon fodder.

Everyone's family members are in Shenyang City, if the Ming army chases after them, they will still fight at that time.

Even if the Ming army didn't chase them, they would have to starve to death without food.

"I looked at the bridge over there, and there weren't too many people crossing it in a short period of time." Huang Taiji pointed angrily at the opposite side, "Now there are more than 10,000, less than 20,000." What's more..."

After a slight pause, he took a deep breath, stretched out his horsewhip and pointed at the big man, "The emperor of the Ming Dynasty is there!" ”

"The morale of the Ming army depends on their emperor. As long as we can win the Ming Emperor, then we will make a lot of money! ”

After taking the Ming Emperor, the strongest soldiers and horses of the Ming Kingdom will inevitably collapse, and when the time comes to eat them, the north of the Ming Kingdom will no longer have the strength to resist, and then you can enter the customs.

The captured military supplies, food and grass, and the captured prisoners of war will greatly enhance their strength.

And if you take the emperor, whether it is negotiation or coercion, there will be a lot of leeway.

All in all, the benefits are significant.

Huang Taiji is also a person who likes to take risks, and when the opportunity is in front of him, he definitely does not lack the courage to give it a go.

These words touched all of you, Baylor, and they were well aware of the current form.

After some deliberation, they all agreed to Huang Taiji's determination.

"Each banner picks people to supervise the battle, and first forces those Mongols to take the lead and consume the gunpowder of the Ming army."

Huang Taiji, who made up his mind, immediately gave an order, "Old Seven, you take people to the first battle." Big brother, you do the second formation. Second brother, you and Yue Tuo do the third formation. I'll do the fourth battle with Hauge, and you'll be on hold with Murgen (Dolgon). Whoever dares to escape in front of the battle, slash! ”

Seven of the eight banners were concentrated here, and only Duoduo's inlaid white flag remained in Shenyang, plus to deal with Mao Wenlong's attack.

Huang Taiji invested a lot of money, determined to rush to the Ming army on the other side of the river to support the Ming army in a big way, and to defeat the Ming army that crossed the river in a battle.

Based on the past records of both sides, the chances of a big win are as high as more than 90%.

The order was issued, and the cattle at all levels called for a call, such as Niulu Ezhen, Jiala Ezhen, Meler Ezhen, Gushan Ezhen, etc., and mobilized troops and horses to prepare for the assault. Under the wave of various flags, it is like a large-scale event site.

"I didn't run."

On the viewing platform, Li Yunze put down the Nikon Yuye in his hand, "I really didn't misunderstand you, Huang Taiji, there is no ambiguity when you should be desperate." ”

"Lu Xiangsheng." He turned his head and instructed Lu Xiangsheng on the side, "Order the soldiers to straighten out their armor and ordnance, and eat canned food to replenish their strength." The reinforcements that came from behind were assembled by the river in bureaus and then filled in the battle line. ”

"Minister, take the order."

With the means of communication in this era, how can it be so easy to mobilize tens of thousands of troops.

Li Yunze estimated that it would take at least two quarters of an hour for the opposite side to launch a charge.

During this time, the Ming army was given the opportunity to regroup and replenish food.

He did not participate in the specific command arrangement, after all, he was not a master of micro-manipulation of 'moving five meters to the left of the machine gun position'.

It is enough to have Zhao to teach Cao Bianjiao and others to command.

The soldiers of the Ming army who crossed the river built a defensive line at a position about 200 steps away from the viewing platform, and there were reinforcements in the rear, which continued to pour into the battle line to strengthen the thickness.

The firecrackers of the Shenji Battalion built a platform with stools and wooden boxes, and formed a fireline behind the armor ranks.

When the order was delivered, the soldiers sat down on the ground, took out their beloved canned fish, opened it, and devoured it.

This kind of canned food rich in sugar, salt, spices, meat and fat can greatly replenish the consumption of the human body, and is the most popular military material in the army.

On the table in front of Li Yunze, two cans were also placed.

He beckoned to have breakfast with Sun Chengzong and the others who came over.

Time passed like water, and the sun became more and more abundant, dispelling the early morning mist.

With the dull sound of horns constantly sounding in the Tartar array in the distance, this great battle that decided the fortunes of the Ming Dynasty and the Later Jin Dynasty was about to kick off.
