In the second year of the Great Tomorrow Apocalypse, on January 19, ten miles east of Sipingbao, Xiaoyashan Village.

Li Yongfang, the third-class general soldier of the Jianzhou Han Army, is taking more than ten people to rest in a broken temple, the snow is falling outside the temple, the cold wind is biting, and everyone in the temple is surrounded by the stove, and the atmosphere is a little dignified.

Li Yongfang, as the advance force of Jianzhou to capture Guangning, disguised himself as a group of displaced people in order to hide people's eyes and ears, and stationed in Xiaoyashan Village near Sipingbao.

The main force of Jianzhou was respectively commanded by the Manchurian Four Beyler Huang Taiji, the Great Beyler Daishan, and the Second Beyler Amin, a total of 40,000 people, and had arrived at Haizhou Wei, less than 300 miles away from the forward position of Siping Fort, which was guarded by the Ming army.

As for Nurhachi himself, he took the three Bel Mang Gurtai to supervise the battle on the left guard of Haizhou, so as to block the reinforcements of Xiong Tingbi of the Ming court at any time in Youtun.

"Once the war starts, it will be a thunderbolt, we must take Guangning within one day, and then our Dajin soldiers will directly threaten the Ming Dynasty's Xiaolinghe and Songjin regions, and the strategic initiative will be completely in my hands! In time, it swept through all the passes and guard positions north of Shanhaiguan in the Ming Dynasty, and faced the fertile soil of thousands of miles in the pass! ”

"At the same time, it can also be used to completely control Liaodong, which plays a vital role in consolidating Liaoyang and other important rear towns."

"Secondly, cut off Daming's left arm, so that he has no time to look north from now on."

"Finally, and very importantly, Manchuria is currently facing an extremely serious economic and food crisis, and if it can be supplemented by this attack on Quang Ninh, great things can be expected!"

This is what the Four Baylor Emperor Taiji summoned Li Yongfang to say before the army set off.

From this, it can be seen that the whole of Jianzhou agreed that the strategic significance of this battle was no less than the capture of Liaoyang, an important town in eastern Liaodong of the Ming Dynasty.

————

At about three o'clock, the moon is not hidden, and at this time there is only the sound of the wind sweeping across the earth outside the temple, like a ghost crying, like a wolf howling, and it is extraordinarily mad.

In the ruined temple, under the dilapidated clay Buddha statue, Li Yongfang was stretching out his hand to bake the fire, looking at the constantly beating flames with his eyes, silently thinking about something, and showing a touch of mockery from time to time.

Since he took refuge in Nurhachi, Li Yongfang has been completely tied to the chariot of Jianzhou, either the car is destroyed or killed, or the sky is rich, he has no choice...... Therefore, for Wang Huazhen's surrender letter, Li Yongfang was panicked as toilet paper.

Suddenly, there was a thud, and the sound of horses' hooves came from afar.

aroused the vigilance of everyone in the temple.

After a while, the sound of Lerma stopping came from outside the temple.

At this moment, the group in the temple reached out and touched the weapons, and if it was an opposing lineup, they would be able to start a fight immediately.

"In the temple, Li San, who sells mountain goods, is in charge?"

Three men dressed in velvet hoods appeared at the entrance of the temple, the two men on the side were younger, and the one in the middle was tall, with a low voice, wearing a dogskin and a velvet hat, and his face was not very clear.

"What's the matter with your family?" Li Yongfang sat by the side to roast the fire from beginning to end, and did not feel surprised by the late-night visitors.

"Let's find three hundred-year-old ginseng," the man in the dogskin hat grinned, scanning the situation in the temple, and he was not timid.

"What did you change?" Li Yongfang turned his head to look at the man.

The man in the dogskin hat tilted his head and popped out three words: "Quang Ninh City!" ”

The soldiers in the temple looked at each other a few times, and they all received their weapons......

"Please come in and do it," it was only at this moment that Li Yongfang stood up and welcomed the arrival of the three men.

Next to the fire, Li Yongfang and the man in the dogskin hat sat opposite each other, and the rest of the people were on guard outside.

"General Sun, come here, why bother to bring a dogskin hat, the black light is blind, in case it causes a misunderstanding, it will be a big deal!" Li Yongfang looked at the man opposite:

"Take off your hat and speak, there are no outsiders here!"

Listening to Li Yongfang's tone, the man was not annoyed, and reached out to pull the hat on his head, revealing a long face with a bit of gloom.

It was the person who sat and drank with Wang Qi during the day, Guangning City, the guerrilla general of the Chinese army, Sun Degong.

As for the three hundred-year-old ginseng that Fang just said, they represent the third-class chief officer of the Han Army in Jianzhou, which was personally promised to Sun Degong by Nurhachi, which is equivalent to Li Yongfang's grade.

The fighter plane was fleeting, so when the two met, there was no extra greeting, and Li Yongfang was the first to speak.

"What is the situation in Quang Ninh City?" Li Yongfang stretched out his hand to approach the flames, and his face was also red.

"There are more than 100,000 soldiers defending the city, but less than 30% of them are capable of fighting. The heart of the army in the city is scattered, the people's hearts are in chaos, the generals who defend the city have no heart to defend the city, and the commander who guards the city has no will to stick to it, you and I should work together inside and outside, first take the outer town fort, and wait for the Jianzhou Heavenly Soldiers to arrive, and then take Guangning City, it is as easy as a palm," Sun Degong said, turning his palm.

It seems that it is indeed a breeze.

"The only thing that needs to be paid attention to," Sun Degong paused for a moment, and said slowly: "The Xiong Tingbi Department located in Youtun has nearly 10,000 troops, if we move a little slowly and are reacted by it, we may have a big disaster." ”

The crackling sound of burning wood was particularly harsh in the silence of the ruined temple.

Hearing Sun Degong's question, Li Yongfang seemed confident, and said unhurriedly: "I have 60,000 armor in Manchuria, and the three Baylors have been stationed in Haizhouwei, and they can cross the first line of defense that the Ming army relies on at any time - the first line of defense of the Liaohe River...... As for the Xiong Tingbi reinforcements you were worried about just now, Sanbeile will lead troops to clamp them down, and I can do our part!" ”

"Now that the Great Khan's side has been fully arranged, the minions can rest assured that they will use their lives," Sun Degong lowered his head, looking extremely humble.

"General Sun, rest assured, as long as you work sincerely, when you take Guangning City, the Great Khan will naturally not treat you badly......" Li Yongfang seemed to see his former figure in Sun Degong, and even got closer with the title:

"Brother Sun, let me go through the details of the plan again to make sure that nothing goes wrong!"

The wind and snow outside the temple became more and more urgent, and in about a quarter of an hour, Sun Degong walked out of the temple gate and galloped away with his men to the west.

In the broken temple, Li Yongfang was still sitting there, baking the fire with his hands, and heard the sound of the horse's hooves going away, and only said silently after a while: "Tang lost his deer, and the world chased him...... It is the same today. ”

Quang Ninh City, Governor's Residence.

"Brother Qi, I just received the news that Sun Degong led people out of the city on a snowy night, and I don't know where I went, and the governor's order cannot be stopped by the city defense."

Wang Qi was sitting behind the desk, and Qin Erbao was reporting the news to him.

"The war is about to start, and the rats and jackals have appeared," Wang Qi got up, stood in front of the map, and looked at the location of Siping Fort silently.

"Are you ready, brothers?"

"Always on call!" Qin Erbao lowered his head, and his tone was low and majestic: "Just wait for Brother Qi'er to give an order!" ”

If he wants to stick to Guangning City, Wang Qi can only rely on twenty-seven generals now, and he can only rely on them to win Sun Degong.
