Chapter 233: The Great Army Siege the City
Gao Qiqian, this guy, is a proclamation on the surface, but in fact he is a prison army!
Anyway, that's what Wang Li thinks!
This is very interesting, the generals in the army hate eunuchs, and as "eunuchs", they even hate eunuchs!
Those guys, apart from the yin and yang weirdness, what else can they do except take and urine down the toilet?
The news of the withdrawal from Quang Ninh can't be hidden from him, it really doesn't matter!
Just explain it clearly to Zhu Youzhen, it's no big deal!
As long as he doesn't want to nibble on cold steamed buns anymore, as long as he wants to eat bacon sausages, he won't move himself!
After Li Kun surrendered, the matter of Jin was not a big deal!
As soon as the sailor arrived, that guy could only rebel and return to the Ming!
Otherwise, take his life!
Of course, before that, you still have to hide it from Zhu Youzhen and the group of trolls in the court!
Those guys, they get angry when they think about it!
Doing nothing all day long, more annoying than a eunuch!
The group of guys on Zhu Youzhen's stall are really miserable!
Originally, as officials in the same dynasty with those guys, each took what he needed, there was no injustice or hatred, there was no need to fight to the death!
Who knows, I have a little money on you, but you want my life, and you will not stop for a moment!
What about you?
Give you a few colors, do you really want to open a dyeing room?
But I have to figure it out, it's not that I can't move you, it's that I don't want to move you at all!
A swarm of ants, not worth my shot!
Dog's day, instigating Zhu Youzhen to march into the army in a big way, don't you want to kill me!
It's so pitiful, that's all you have left!
I advise you to take it easy!
It really forced me to be anxious, no matter if you are a first-grade first-grade first-class official or a seventh-grade official, they all sink into the Grand Canal!
Hum!
Fight with me, you're still a little tender!
……
Under Wang Li's insistence and urging, all the materials from Guangning City arrived at the Daling River!
Before leaving, he also destroyed the four walls and the houses in the city!
Therefore, when Huang Taiji led the troops back, there was only a piece of scorched earth left in Guangning City!
As a great khan, how can Huang Taiji stand this kind of anger!
Without resting, the 120,000 army was violent, heading straight for the Daling River!
Old tactics, around!
Under the cover of superior cavalry, four deep trenches were dug around the Daling River!
"Your Majesty, I inquired very clearly: there are only 5,000 foot soldiers in Daling River, and 3,000 Guanning iron cavalry;
The Ming army's ironclad brocade guards and more Guanning iron cavalry had withdrawn to Jinzhou and Ningyuan five days ago, and the dead eunuch ......"
"Huh?"
Huang Taiji snorted coldly, and Dai Shan didn't dare to say more.
In a panic, Zilharang spoke tentatively: "Your Majesty, our army is stationed outside the trench and can hide from the new artillery of the Ming army;
But...... But...... That dead eunuch robbed me of the grain of Guangning, which can last at least a year!
I besiege but not attack, this is not a way!
Besides, the dead eunuch may not be in Daling River for a long time! ”
"No, he's definitely in the Daling River!"
Huang Taiji's face was full of confidence, and there was a hint of hideousness: "That guy is really hateful!" I will not withdraw my troops until they are captured alive and beheaded!
His food and grass are enough to last one year, and I will surround him for two years! ”
In the anger, Huang Taiji's face was murderous!
Dai Shan and Zilharang's hearts tightened, for fear that he would mention the loss of Quang Ninh!
Fortunately, Dorgon spoke again: "But...... It is reported that a cavalry of the Ming army of thousands of people attacked and harassed the Horqin Department half a month ago, and then turned to the area of the Demu River!
If you don't guess wrong, this person must be Cao Wenzhao!
If we don't encircle and suppress it with heavy troops, it will be difficult for our army's rear to sleep and eat! ”
"Encirclement? How to encircle and suppress? ”
Huang Taiji asked unhappily, the helplessness and unwillingness in his heart were all written on his face!
For Huang Taiji, the most familiar general of the Ming army must be Cao Wenzhao!
The general of the Ming army who feared him the most was also Cao Wenzhao!
In the past few years, every time I met Cao Wenzhao, I never got any benefits!
That's right, he only has three thousand soldiers!
However, to encircle and annihilate this army is undoubtedly a fool's dream!
Stretching for thousands of miles in the desert and grassland, the cavalry is unrestrained and gallops at will!
Just like Nachahanhot, the fragile Erjin Danbatur!
chased him for more than six years, accumulating tens of thousands of miles, but failed to completely wipe out his remnants!
If he hadn't died of smallpox, his son would not have surrendered to him!
That guy Cao Wenzhao is a hundred times more cunning than Danba Turhan!
has both courage and the art of war, and comes and goes without a trace!
Even if hundreds of thousands of Eight Banner warriors chase with all their might, they can only draw water with bamboo baskets!
But it doesn't matter!
According to the intelligence of the insider, Cao Wenzhao is the part of the dead eunuch!
As long as you capture the dead eunuch, you are not afraid that Cao Wenzhao will not surrender!
For now, let him go crazy a little longer!
"Report ...... Emperor: The Ming army of Daling River, out of ...... Out of town......"
"Huh?"
Huang Taiji was full of suspicion and hurried to the outside of the tent.
I raised my binoculars and looked at it for a long time, but I was still confused!
That's right, the Ming army in Dalinghe City did go out of the city!
However, in their hands, they did not hold firecrackers or cannonballs, but hoes and shovels!
After observing for a long time, Huang Taiji finally understood - it turned out that the Ming army was digging trenches!
Around the Daling River, two miles away from the city wall, didn't the Eight Banners dig four trenches?
The newly dug trench of the Ming army is only a few dozen zhang away from the city wall!
That's weird!
Digging a trench by himself is to trap the Ming army in the city!
However, why did the Ming army dig trenches?
Do they want to trap themselves?
I have heard that the eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty were not complete men, and had a strong perversion or revenge mentality!
What they think in their hearts must not be lived by ordinary people!
This kind of "cocooning and self-restraint" thing is absolutely impossible for a normal person to do!
That's it!
Anyway, I didn't plan to attack the city!
Anyway, they have one more trench, and it is even more difficult to break through!
Oh, that's not right!
Didn't I say that I would capture the dead eunuch alive?
Cao Wenzhao's house is still rampant in the north, this matter can't wait!
The problem is, there are cannons on the top of the Daling River!
Even if they rush to the city, they still have bows, arrows, muskets, and "uncountable" mortars!
That's it, there must be nothing wrong with besieging the city, write him a letter first, and persuade him to surrender!
……
"Factory Gong, the Eight Banners are okay in the field, but the siege is a weak chicken! We have soldiers, food, guns and cannons in our city, can we dig a moat? ”
"Gonggong, if you want to consume a large number of Eight Banner soldiers, you have to provoke them and attract them to come and attack the city!
However, the Eight Banners are not fools, are they?
If we really dig the moat, will the Eight Banners still dare to come over? ”
"Oh, the real is the virtual, the virtual is the real!"
Wang Li shook his head and smiled: "We all know that it is a moat, but I am worried that Huang Taiji doesn't know!"
Actually, it's fake that I dug the moat, and it is true to attract Huang Taiji to come over and attack the city!
With our little manpower, we really have to dig out a moat, I'm afraid it's the year of the monkey!
I work so hard to mobilize the people, and I can't help it!
Hundreds of thousands of Eight Banner soldiers are outside the city, but they are far away and dare not attack the city, Huang Taiji, that guy, is too bold, right?
We have been preparing supplies for more than a month, but we haven't even seen the shadow of the Eight Banners, isn't it in vain? ”
Wang Li's face was full of anticipation, but Gao Qiqian had a straight face, and hummed unhappily: "Why don't you use this strength to defend the city in Guangning City?" ”
"Dang!"
Wang Li threw it casually, and a chisel more than a foot long fell at the foot of Gao Qidive, so frightened that he took several steps back!
Just as he was about to scold, Wang Li smiled: "Father-in-law Gao, I will lend you this chisel, and give you a day to dig a hole in the city wall for me to see?" ”
Gao Qiqian was confused, Song Zhe hurriedly shook his head at Wang Li, and then with a smile on his face, he explained to Gao Qiqian:
"Gonggong Gao, you should know that after Kong Youde defected to Huang Taiji, he not only dedicated more than forty cannons to him, but also imitated more cannons!
You also saw it last time, the city wall of Quang Ninh is made of rammed earth, and it will collapse when it is blown up!
And the walls of the Daling River are made of stone, which can resist the attack of any firearms that the Eight Banners have at their disposal!
The city-digging technique commonly used by the Eight Banners is even more unlikely to destroy the walls of the Daling River!
Therefore, the factory man's focus of defense on the Daling River was well thought out! ”
"You mean that the walls of Quang Ninh will collapse as soon as they are blown up?"
Gao Qiqian snorted coldly, extremely dissatisfied with Song Zhe's explanation: "I have asked Chief Qiu a long time ago, don't you want to bluff me!"
A month ago, more than a thousand shells fell on the city, why didn't the city wall collapse? ”
"Grandpa Gao, our mortar is made very small in order to be easy to carry!
Its explosive power can effectively injure the Eight Banners, but it is not enough to destroy the frozen city wall!
The cannons possessed by the Eight Banners are similar to those on the Jingshi City; A cannonball hits you, and no matter how thick the ice is, you can't support it! ”
Song Zhe's explanation, Gao Qiqian was still not satisfied, and asked sharply: "Cannon? Cannon? Why didn't I see the cannon of the Eight Banners?
A while ago, didn't you say that the terrain of Quang Ninh City is not suitable for defense? How did it get to this point and become a cannon again? ”
"Uh...... Factory man, the sweet potatoes you put on the bottom of the kang are probably about to be baked, I have to go and see it! ”
After that, without waiting for Wang Li's response, he ran away in a hurry!
Looking at his back, Wang Li smiled bitterly and shook his head, too lazy to look at Gao Qiqian, and strode away.
For Gao Qiqian, the prison army, Wang Li's patience has reached the limit!
Before the Eight Banners besieged the city, they tried all kinds of methods, but they couldn't drive him away!
These days, it's really annoying to be twittering in your ears all day long!
Sometimes, discuss something with Chen Qiyu and Yuan Chonghuan, this guy dares to break in without knocking on the door!
If it weren't for Song Zhe's mediation, he would have killed this guy a long time ago!
It's a pity that Daling River is heavily besieged, and Zhu Youzhen's holy decree can't be sent in!
Presumably, he should be able to understand the explanation he gave Zhu Youzhen, right?
Perhaps, he has long had the intention of returning to the high and submerged!
Let's hope so!
"Look, Factory!"
Song Yi pointed to a horse with eight banners, and asked expressionlessly, "Do you want to release arrows?" ”
"No need! The two countries are fighting each other, and they will not be killed! If we shoot him, we won't be able to send a message to Huang Taiji! ”
As he spoke, the horse had arrived at the city!
The person who came could speak Chinese!
Yaowu raised his might, and shouted at the top of his voice: "My emperor of the Qing Dynasty has an order: within three days, Kaicheng will surrender, but Baoer and other high-ranking officials will be Houlu!"
If you are stubborn, on the day the city is broken, all the men in the city will be slaughtered!
This is my handwritten letter from the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and after reading it, I will reply quickly! ”
The sound fell, the bow was fired, and an arrow feather whistled!
Gao Qi was frightened, and quickly hid behind the city chop!
"Shoot the arrows! Hurry up and release the arrows! Gao Qiqian was shocked and frightened, and pointed at Wang Li angrily: "This guy is bold and disobedient, why don't you release arrows?" Why don't you release the arrows? ”
Gao Qiqian's roar, Wang Li is completely immune!
Lazy to look at him, let alone explain anything, he took the letter.
I'll go!
Didn't you say that Huang Taiji was proficient in Chinese?
Why is his handwriting uglier than mine?
What is "loyal and obedient for a long time, and suddenly my two ancestors are not guilty and punished", what is "the same foreign domain, and things are different", this is a god and horse thing?
Below, what else is "about to be damaged, and the extortion will be compensated", I will go, what is this written?
"Seven hates, just repeat the same old tune! My ears are calloused! Song Yi spit out a puff of smoke rings and smiled disdainfully: "Huang Taiji wants to attack the Daling River, there must be a grandiose excuse!" ”
"Oh? The Seven Hatreds? ”
Seeing that Wang Li's face was full of doubts, Song Yi continued to explain: "Back then, Nurha rebelled, and it was under the pretext of the "Seven Hatreds";
Unexpectedly, after so many years, Huang Taiji once again proposed the "Seven Hatreds", which is really ridiculous! ”
