Twenty thousand Mongolian cavalry chased nearly tens of thousands of Ming troops and did not stop until they drove the Ming troops back to the south bank of the river. This time, Liu Hancheng was seriously injured. In one night, more than half of his troops and horses were lost. This kind of
Under such circumstances, there is no need to talk about siege. It would be good if the Mongols do not come to counterattack.
When the news came that the Ming army was defeated again, Dorgon still didn't believe it. When it was confirmed, he stared and was speechless for a long time. Although this group of losers had little hope of capturing Yingchang this time, they came from another place.
This party strengthened Dorgon's decision to go south and conquer the Central Plains. This group of weak Han people did not deserve such a beautiful country.
The Ming Dynasty's troops were defeated again, and Dorgon no longer hesitated and ordered the withdrawal to Guangning very simply. In fact, Dorgon never thought about capturing Yingchang from the beginning. If he hadn't considered Huang Taiji, he wouldn't have even sent troops.
Will send troops, at least so far, he, Dorgon, still needs Du Lenghong as an enemy. Youdao is like a cunning rabbit, a lackey, Heng, a flying bird, a good bow, and a bow. For his own sake, he must do this to raise thieves and respect themselves.
Made.
Dorgon is not afraid of Du Lenghong, he is afraid of Huang Taiji who is watching from behind. If Du Lenghong is eliminated now, he will have to face Minte to the west, which is not a good thing.
The battle in Yiangzhang ended in an anticlimactic manner, but Xiguan City in the eastern part of the Hanhai Grassland was a real and fierce battle. Tie Mo was already determined to win Xiguan, and Minte, as a rare talent under Lin Dan Khan, naturally
Unwilling to give up Xiguan easily, the troops of both sides faced off south of Zuoyun City on August 23, while Orger's 40,000-strong army faced off in Texas.
Tie Mo didn't seem to be in a hurry to attack. He ordered Liu Guoneng to lead 5,000 soldiers to garrison Cangtou River, and Zhou Dingshan to lead 10,000 cavalry to cruise between Zuoyun City and Dezhou. They just faced off, neither advancing nor retreating.
. Under normal circumstances, Minte would definitely laugh out loud, because doing this is really stupid. He clearly has the advantage but does not launch an attack. Isn't it a waste of a good opportunity? But Minte knows that this is not a normal time. Last year,
Grain production has decreased, and there is not much grain in Xiguan. Most of it relies on the support of the royal court. Now that Du Lenghong has occupied Shangjing, how can he possibly send grain to Xiguan?
The remaining reserves in Xiguan will not last long, and Lin Danhan's death has already made many soldiers feel confused. From these two aspects, delaying it will only benefit Tie Mo and not harm him. The people who should be anxious should be
Minte is right. If the war is not ended as soon as possible, as panic spreads and food becomes scarce, the army will definitely collapse.
Minte came to whatever he was worried about. Starting from Haishi, the soldiers of the Northern Shanxi Army on the opposite side used loudspeakers to form a team and shout. Oh, of course these people are the former Black Wolf soldiers wearing the uniforms of the Northern Shanxi Army. What they did
Speaking in authentic Mongolian, he shouted with great emotion, "Brothers, stop working for that mediocre Lin Dan Khan. Besides, he is dead now, and Du Lenghong will succeed you as Khan. You are still obsessed with not realizing it."
When? We are all descendants of Mongolia. Princess Aqige cannot bear the harm to you. She orders us not to attack this time. Brothers, don’t hesitate. Come over quickly. The princess will definitely accept you."
Bastard, what can Minte say besides swearing? I have to say that this trick of the Northern Shanxi Army was very effective. It not only disturbed the morale of the army, but also made some Xiguan troops feel itchy. It was nothing on the first night
reaction, but by the next day, some Mongolian soldiers had already fled to the northern Shanxi army camp one after another. This matter reached Minte’s ears, and there was no way to do it, because no one knew who would escape. Besides,
What's the use of killing people? What's the use except creating more panic? In fact, by now, Minte has become very clear that he can't win this battle. No matter which aspect, the Northern Shanxi Army has an absolute advantage.
On August 25, Heiyunlong, who had been stationed in Wuzhou City, suddenly appeared in Fengzhen, southwest Texas, with his troops. Heiyunlong's move was a diagonal thrust, but unexpectedly, Abasha's army was blocked in Dezhou for a while.
Who is Hei Yunlong with Fengzhen? How can he give Abasha any hope of breaking through? There are a total of 60,000 troops on both sides, forming a direct squeeze from the left and right directions.
Only then did Minte realize how stupid he was. Hei Yunlong was a rare general in Xuanhua Prefecture. He would stay in Wuzhou City honestly? Abasha's army could not be saved, because Abasha was a bit weak.
There is no chance of winning. Even if they rely on the six thousand iron pagodas, the Northern Shanxi Army still has Northern Shanxi cavalry.
Min Te is considered a rare military genius, but facing this situation, he can't think of any good ideas. This time, Tie Mo did not use any conspiracy and tricks, but raised an upright army. This is strength. When strong,
In the face of his strength, all conspiracies and tricks are just a cloud, unless Minte can have powerful artillery. Unfortunately, Minte has tried his best to build an artillery force like the Northern Shanxi Army in recent years, but he can't build such artillery shells at all.
In particular, the artillery used was extremely heavy and too easy to damage. It was not that I had not thought of stealing the artillery papers of the Northern Shanxi Army, but most of the people sent there were arrested by people from the Intelligence Department. Sometimes Minte even doubted himself.
Is there a traitor around? Otherwise, why were those people sent out and all of them were caught?
Abasha is trapped in the middle, with Geng Zhongming and Hei Yunlong on the east and west, and the Great Wall on the south. Escape to the north? But what's the point of escaping north? For Abasha, this is definitely the biggest thing he has ever encountered in his life.
Although they had eight thousand iron pagodas and ten thousand cavalry in their hands, it was still impossible to win because Zhou Dingshan and Liu Guoneng could lead the northern Shanxi cavalry to attack from the flank at any time.
Geng Zhongming and Hei Yunlong cooperated with each other to compress Abasha's living space bit by bit. On August 27, a total of 40,000 Mongolian soldiers were squeezed into a place less than fifteen miles from Dezhou to Fengzhen, while the northern Shanxi army east and west
Both sides were strictly guarded. At the same time, Zhou Dingshan and Liu Guoneng also led their cavalry to patrol near Jiaoshan, and could support the Heiyunlong army stationed in Fengzhen at any time. With such a layout, the Northern Shanxi Army could be said to have an absolute advantage, but Heiyunlong and Geng Zhongming just couldn't.
It is not a good thing for Abasha to take the initiative to attack, but the Northern Shanxi Army does not take the initiative to attack. As time goes by, the Daliao warriors will become more and more impatient, and their fighting spirit will be slowly worn away.
Abasha didn't know what to do here, and Minte was not feeling well. At this time, Minte was thinking about how to rescue Abasha who was trapped in a tight siege. He also had to guard against Tiemo's troops stationed in Shuozhou suddenly heading north.
Time is a dilemma. Tie Mo never thought of giving Minte the opportunity to rush to aid Abasha. Since Minte brought the army out of Xiguan, they cannot be allowed to go back. If the nearly 100,000 Mongolian soldiers are allowed to return to Xiguan, then annexation
Xiguan, the strategy of checking and balancing the Jin Kingdom was completely miscalculated.
According to the original plan, Yunzhong Mansion must be occupied to seize Fengsheng Prefecture, because these two places are too important. Fengsheng Prefecture has a vast area with hundreds of miles of grassland, and Xiguan is the strongest city in the west of Fengsheng Prefecture.
In this way, we can use Xiguan as the root and Fengshengzhou as the buffer to build the first line of defense against the Jin Kingdom's troops. Although it is still in Du Lenghong's hands, Tie Mo believes that as the Jin Kingdom's troops gradually gather
Guangning, Du Lenghong will eventually make Du Lenghong give up defending Guangning. The reason for this judgment is actually very simple. The surrounding important areas have been occupied by Dorgon. The Thirteen Baylor can cut off Guangning to the west at any time.
The connection with foreign enemies would be enough to trap Guangning's troops without fighting. Du Lenghongjue would not be stupid enough to destroy tens of thousands of troops to defend a place that had lost its strategic value.
Although Linhuang Mansion in Guangning is a royal palace, is it prosperous? No, in terms of prosperity, Guangning cannot even compare with Yingchang. Now that Lin Danhan and his son have died, do they still need to defend Guangning City?
On August 28, the army of Northern Shanxi left Shuozhou and approached Minte's Chinese army camp. Seeing that a big battle was about to break out, Minte was ready to face this fierce battle. He held a sword and walked through the enemy's camp.
He was in good military uniform, but before the military order was issued, a soldier ran in in a panic, "Commander... The Han people have stopped. They stopped west of Huairen."
"Huh?" Min Te was shocked. What kind of trick was Tie Mo playing and why did he stop? Min Te instinctively felt that this was due to a conspiracy. Some Liao generals also frowned uneasily. For a while, no one dared to mess up.
Talk. Tie Mo's appetite is too big, and he doesn't move, which makes people feel even more terrifying.
Min Te really thought too much. Tie Mo really didn't play any conspiracy this time. He just wanted to be persuaded to surrender. Just after noon, Min Te led the troops to leave the camp. Nearly 20,000 Mongolian soldiers came to Zuoyun.
The formation was deployed on the east side of the city, waiting for the Northern Shanxi Army to come. Min Te didn't want to be led by Tie Mo all the time, which made him feel useless. The last battle in Wuzhou was beaten to pieces, if not this time
Lessons learned, but it’s a little unreasonable.
Min Te was waiting for someone, but what was waiting was not a large number of Northern Shanxi troops, but a woman wearing a luxurious red light shirt. The woman had a waist tied up, her long hair was pulled up, and she had a beautiful face.
She has an oval face and a red lace that reaches her knees. She looks delicate and somewhat heroic. Min Te opened her mouth with a look of astonishment on her face. How could she be Jade Guanyin?
What Min only has for Jade Guanyin is respect. He has an upright temperament and often offends the Khan. At that time, the concubine often said nice things. Now that the Khan has passed away, she has gone to northern Shanxi. It is God's will.
But why did Tie Mo let the concubine come here today? Suddenly, Minte understood why Tie Mo had been reluctant to take action. It turned out that his real trump card was the concubine.
Min Te took the lead, and all the Liao generals dismounted, knelt on the ground, and shouted, "Min Te, lead your Xiguan staff to welcome the concubine...May the concubine be blessed with peace and happiness!"
After listening to Minte's words, Yu Guanyin frowned slightly in pain. From the beginning to the end, she never thought about being a concubine, but fate pushed her to this position step by step. In fact, she didn't want to care too much.
thing, but the bad man wanted her to come. Of course, she didn't understand that Tie Mo was willing to ask her, and conquering the Xiguan soldiers and horses also played a large part in the reason. She turned over and got off the horse, Yu Guanyin gave her a weak support, and gave a faint wry smile.
He said, "Commander Minte, please call me. You are now a concubine, so don't call me concubine from now on."
"This... Concubine, you are here this time..." Minte raised his eyes and looked at Jade Guanyin, feeling extremely complicated. Jade Guanyin fled to northern Shanxi and committed herself to Tie Mo. It was shameful and irritating to say, but it was also strange.
Who can win? What the Khan did is really shocking. No wonder the concubine turned her back. However, what should he do if the concubine persuades him to surrender?
Now that it was confirmed that the Northern Shanxi Army had no intention of fighting, Minte would not be stupid enough to let his troops stand still, so he immediately opened the way and invited Yu Guanyin to go to the Chinese army's tent. After sitting down, Minte sent the others
The general asked him to come out and face Jade Guanyin alone. Jade Guanyin seemed very calm. After gesturing for Minte to sit down and talk, he slowly said his purpose of coming, "Commander, I believe you also know why I came here today."
, the superintendent asked me to persuade the commander to surrender. I didn't want to take care of this kind of thing, but I really can't bear to cause more casualties to the commander-in-chief and my prairie son. Now the Khan is dead, and my son is gone, and only
After Du Lenghong was killed, the commander should think carefully about himself!"
After speaking, Jade Guanyin stood up. Minte was very surprised and asked instinctively, "Concubine, where are you going?"
"Of course I have to go back. I don't understand many truths. The supervisor has already made it very clear. The commander-in-chief can make his own decision on the rest." Jade Guanyin walked towards the outside of the tent.
Because of her identity, no one in the camp dared to stop her. Minte was a little dumbfounded, and his expression looked like he was laughing or crying. Haha, there are still people in the world who are trying to persuade people to surrender. It seems that the concubine really doesn’t want to get involved.
These things.
Jade Guanyin didn't say much, and she even meant to deal with official matters, but her meaning was very clear. If she didn't surrender, Tie Mo would besiege Xiguan and annihilate nearly 100,000 troops in Xiguan. Minte sat on the soft cushion, still thinking.
Regarding what Jade Guanyin said before, although the concubine's words were very general, they were very reasonable. Perhaps this was also the thought of most Xiguan soldiers.
In the past, they fought for Lin Dan Khan and Cong Ayaun, but now? Khan is dead and Wang Zhi is dead. Are they allowed to obey the orders of the traitor Du Lenghong? Minte will not obey Du Lenghong even if he is killed.
Yes, I believe that most of the people from Xiguan will not have a good impression of Du Lenghong. Since he has no roots in the grassland, what should he do next? There is only one option, to occupy the Hetao Corridor to the west and establish himself as king. But now Geng Zhongming
Blocked to the west with Heiyunlong, it is obvious that this road is not feasible.
After much deliberation, he could only give the Northern Shanxi Army a hard fight, but the question was, could he win? Minte had no confidence at all. He felt that Tiemo would not give any chance to the grassland warriors. If he transferred the artillery
Now, the warriors will have no choice but to be slaughtered by others. Maybe it’s time to consider the concubine’s suggestion and accept his fate. After several years of development, I have to admit that Tie Mo has grown into a generation of heroes, and he is fully capable of conquering.
