Tie Mo really didn't want Liu Zhongxun to stop the Jurchens. Doing so would be like using a mantis as a chariot and would do no good at all. But it was impossible to stop Liu Zhongxun, an old minister who was loyal to the Ming Dynasty.
Sighing, Asha came to the living room and took Liu Zhongxun's autographed letter. Tie Mo looked patiently and saw that Liu Zhongxun didn't actually say much in his heart, just a few words. But Tie Mo frowned when he saw it.
, heart beating wildly.
"In the end, the general will decide the capital. I hope the commander will send troops as soon as possible. We are looking forward to it and don't let the Ming Dynasty lose the last trace of faith!" A few words, each stroke seemed to be dripping with blood, Tie Mo's heart
He couldn't help but tremble. Liu Zhongxun was risking his life to force someone like him to send troops.
The last trace of faith in the Ming Dynasty was his iron man, Liu Zhongxun, Liu Zhongxun, why are you so pedantic, why do you insist on following that hopeless court to the death? The power of faith is very powerful.
After Tie Mo finished reading the letter, Liu Zhongmin knelt on the ground and said emotionally, "Supervisor, I hope you will send troops to rescue my brother as soon as possible. Please!"
Even though Liu Zhongmin was old, he knelt on the ground and begged like this. Tie Mo couldn't bear it, but he still shook his head. There were some things that he couldn't agree to. Even without Xiao Ruxue, he wouldn't have chosen to stay near Jizhou.
War. He will intercept the Jurchen army, but it will be in the Baigou River and Xiaosan River area, not Jizhou. "Old General, if you care about the old general, please ask the old general to leave Daxing. I will send troops there immediately."
, I’m afraid it’s too late.”
Liu Zhongmin knew a little bit about the military deployment of the Northern Shanxi Army. Now that most of the troops of the Northern Shanxi Army are concentrated in the northeast of Xuanhua Prefecture, the target of attack is much more flexible. They can not only cooperate with the Yingzhou army to attack Ningzhou, but also directly intervene in Baidu.
In the Gouhe and Xiaosanhe areas, if you go to the outskirts of Beijing, you would be giving up your advantage.
In other words, in the battle on the outskirts of Beijing, the Northern Shanxi Army could fight if they wanted to or if they didn't want to, but the elder brother was different. His temperament was too upright and loyal to the court. So he could only intercept the Tatars in Daxing.
, Brother, brother, why are you doing this? The Governor also has the same difficulties as the Governor. Even if the Governor leads his troops to the capital, His Majesty and the cabinet may not appreciate it. Maybe he will think that the Governor is going to rebel. This is necessary.
Is it really good?
It's not that Liu Zhongmin didn't try to persuade him, but it was of no use at all. The reason why Liu Zhongxun is Liu Zhongxun and the reason why he has such high prestige is because of his loyalty and heroism.
Tie Mo helped Liu Zhongmin up. Looking at Liu Zhongmin's old and depressed face, he smiled bitterly and said, "Old general, I hope you can advise your brother again. If he wants to fight, please move his troops to the Baigou River area.
No matter what happens, the two generals Geng Zhongming and Liu Guoneng will be able to rescue them in time. Northeast of the capital, that is where the Tatars have a heavy hoard of troops. If they cut off the Tatars' retreat at this time, the Tatars will definitely fight tooth and nail. My governor
The division will not risk its own soldiers."
Tie Mo's words were a bit cruel. The lives of the soldiers of the Northern Shanxi Army were important. Aren't the lives of his brother and others not valuable? Unfortunately, most of the Northern Shanxi Army were descendants of Northern Shanxi, and they liked Tie Mo's fact.
The army of the Northern Shan Dynasty only fought for the Iron Governor, and the others, I'm sorry, were left alive and dead for fun to watch.
Liu Zhongmin left Xuanhua Mansion in despair. Shortly after he left, Tie Mo held an emergency meeting. Geng Zhongming, Zhou Dingshan, Chen Ayofeng and others who were in other places all rushed to Xuanhua Mansion within two hours.
Looking at the generals here, Tie Mo's heart surged with infinite pride. Once upon a time, he envied other people's powerful generals, but now it is others' turn to envy him. Among these people, who among them is not a unique general? Especially.
It's Zhou Dingshan, this rising star in the army, who already has the momentum to overtake the veteran Geng Zhongming. After years of fighting, Zhou Dingshan can be said to be invincible. What I mean is that Zhou Dingshan is not rigid in fighting, but as long as he fights, he will move forward bravely.
The men under his command unite like wolves and move forward, invincible and invincible.
In terms of maturity, stability, and scheming, he cannot compare with Liu Guoneng, but when it comes to defeating the enemy in battle formations and cavalry battles, Zhou Dingshan can always do something unexpected.
"Everyone, the situation is a little bit wrong now. Old General Liu Zhongxun has deployed heavy troops in the north of Gyeongsang Province. I'm afraid it's more likely to be a disaster. In short, the old general can't die in vain, otherwise the commander-in-chief will not be able to bear it. Therefore, the previous plan has been made
Change. Geng Zhongming, after you return, immediately break up the camp and lead the troops to Yingzhou to join the Org army. Good minister, your burden is very heavy. Whether you can intercept the Jurchens and completely damage the Jin army depends on whether you can defeat them in time.
The Yingzhou Guard is over. Li Yuanqing, Zhou Dingshan, I order you two to withdraw Xiongzhou's troops and horses and station them all in the Tang County area. If our army defeats the Yingzhou Guard, you will march eastward to Xiaosanhe with all your strength. General Orger will then
They will also send people to help Xiaosanhe, where the governor will fight the Jurchen Tatars. This battle will break the legs of the Jin Kingdom and prevent him from ever having the intention to go south again. If it takes three days
If we can't capture the Yingzhou Guard inside, we won't be able to move out. This can only be said to be God's will to allow the Jurchen Tatars to pass."
The changes Tie Mo mentioned were really too big. According to the original plan, the Northern Shanxi Army could rely on Xiongzhou City to block the Jurchens south of the Baigou River. Although Xiongzhou was behind the Jurchens
In his hands, since the Northern Shanxi Army dared to reach the Baigou River, they were sure to capture Xiongzhou. There are two advantages to starting a battle with the Jurchens at the Baigou River. First, with the Baigou River as a natural chasm, the power of the Jurchen cavalry is much greater.
A big discount. Secondly, if the battle situation is too tragic, the Northern Shanxi Army can withdraw northward from Xiaosanhe. It can be said that it can advance or retreat.
But if we storm Yingzhou Guards and then fight at Xiaosanhe, it will feel like we have accomplished all our efforts in one battle. One battle to decide the world may seem heroic and unrestrained, but the risks involved are not small. What if we suffer a loss in this battle?
The Northern Shan Army would be seriously injured. At least with this defeat, it would no longer be able to stop the expansion of the Qing Dynasty within five years.
No one blamed Tie Mo, because the Iron Governor was also forced, and Liu Zhongxun was too upright. He considered the imperial court, but did not consider the Northern Jin Army, and the Northern Jin Army would never consider the imperial court. Emperor Ming
He and the cabinet have been thinking about how to kill the Iron Governor. Their life and death has nothing to do with the Northern Shanxi Army. A few years ago, Huang Taiji blocked the pass and plundered the capital. At that time, His Majesty had already lost the face of the Ming Dynasty.
Do you need others to compete for face?
Geng Zhongming knew that the matter was serious, so he did not dare to neglect it. He took the order and left in a hurry. The remaining people also had solemn faces. After the detailed battle plan was issued, everyone left Xuanhua Mansion with a lot of discussion.
In early March of the twelfth year of Chongzhen, the spring breeze swept across the northern country, and a spring rain fell continuously. The spring rain was as precious as oil, and everything revived after the rain. Unfortunately, there were no crops on the land of Gyeonggi, and this rain was destined to come at the wrong time.
In Yingzhou Mansion, Aqige's face turned a little livid as he listened to Geng Zhongming's narration. Humph, it was probably because of Liu Zhongxun that it was probably also because of Xiao Ruxue. This passionate person is really distressing.
It was not easy to capture the Yingzhou Guards in three days. You must know that Dorgon had made all kinds of preparations in the early stage, and it took several months to capture the Yingzhou Guards. However, a general's order is a general's order, and Aqige still issued the order to march.
"General Orger, first ask Tuobuhua to withdraw the cavalry to Yizhou and not to put too much pressure on the Jurchens. In addition, order Zheng Zeshi to lead his mountain camp and sneak into Xiangshan Mountain."
As soon as Aqige's order came out, Yelu Dashi felt a toothache. It was okay to ask Tuo Buhua to abandon the Zhuozhou area and return to Yizhou City, but it was too difficult for Zheng Zeshi's mountain camp to sneak into Xiangshan. It was simply more difficult than the three armies.
It is even more difficult to break through the Yingzhou Guard. Xiangshan is to the west of the Yingzhou Guard, and the Jurchens are closely guarded. How to sneak into the mountain camp with nearly 4,000 people?
If the Shandiying were really allowed to sneak into Xiangshan, with Shandiying's ability, it is estimated that a surprise attack would be able to break through the gate to the west of Yingzhou Guard. "Princess, isn't this a bit difficult for General Zheng?"
"Is it difficult for Zheng Zeshi? If he can't sneak into Xiangshan, why should we capture Yingzhou Guards in three days and let his subordinates use their lives to fill it? Tell Zheng Zeshi that this order was issued by his Iron Supervisor and he has grievances
Don't look for this princess. If he can't sneak into Xiangshan, don't mention the matter of attacking the Yingzhou Guards!" After saying this, Aqige left with a cold face. At this time, a group of generals looked at each other. Good guy, everyone.
I smell something dangerous. Princess Aqige is angry with the supervisor. Let's not get involved in this kind of nonsense, or we might get involved in it.
Now, no one can speak for Zheng Zeshi anymore. When the order was given to Zheng Zeshi, Zheng Zeshi stared so anxiously that he almost swallowed the big porcelain bowl in front of him. What is this, princess?
If you are angry with the Iron Superintendent because of Miss Xiao's matter, you can't take it out on him, Zheng Zeshizi. But who can you blame? Who made Zheng Zeshizi known as the "gold medal lackey" under the Supervisor? Now the Iron Superintendent is in trouble, others
If he doesn't stand out, he, Zheng, will have to stand out as an official.
Sneaking into Xiangshan Mountain was very difficult. But Zheng Zeshi still risked his life and ran away if he couldn't get in. Could it be that he couldn't defeat the Jurchen Tatars and couldn't outrun the Jurchen Tatars?
The mountains are long and the terrain is complex. The Jurchen Tatar cavalry is useless. With only two legs, how can the mountain camp not defeat the Tatars? Although the Jurchens grew up between white mountains and black waters and are very familiar with the mountains and forests, the mountain camp is a mountainous area.
If the special operations arms cannot defeat mountain people who have not received formal training, then forget about the mountain special forces in the future.
In order to sneak into Xiangshan, Zheng Zeshi racked his brains and gathered the entire battalion of soldiers and horses to discuss the plan. However, there were only a few dozen people who could come up with ideas. Listen, they are not reliable.
.Especially when one person actually said that he would attack the mountain from the west and scolded Zheng Zeshi. He was sneaking into Xiangshan. If he attacked by force, there was no need to worry about it. Besides, if he attacked Xiangshan by force, how could he sneak into the Weixi gate of Yingzhou from Xiangshan in the future?
Just when Zheng Zeshi was about to lose heart, a guy ran in holding a military hat and said, "General Zheng, I have an idea. Do you want to hear it?"
"Er son, what are you talking about? If you have a trick, tell me immediately. If it is really useful, I, the general, will benefit from you!" Zheng Zeshi didn't hold out much hope at all, because there were too many people who said this before, and in the end, everyone was attracted by him.
I cursed a lot, so I feel a little numb now.
Erwazi scratched his head and whispered, "General Zheng, you know there is a cliff in the south of Xiangshan Mountain. If we can hang a rope and rely on the skills of our mountain camp brothers, can't we climb it quietly?"
"
There is a cliff to the south of Xiangshan Mountain. Zheng Zeshi knew this. The problem is that the cliff is too smooth. How can we hang the rope on it? "Erwazi, finish the sentence in one breath, but you can tell me how to hang the rope on it?"
Can you still grow a pair of wings?"
Zheng Zeshi rolled his eyes and his tone was not very good. The place was too high, too high and steep to climb. Qinggong? Are you kidding? The storyteller wouldn't dare to fool around like this? If it were that simple, General Zhou would have been killed long ago.
My subordinate Feitian Shenhou borrowed it. With that kid's mountain climbing ability, are you afraid that he won't be able to climb up?
"Hey, General Zheng, don't worry. Have you heard that the Tatars always go to the city to find some women to go up the mountain recently? Hey, if we can find a woman to help us, we only need to secretly..." Erwazi
Before he finished speaking, he saw Zheng Zeshi's eyes shining brightly, and he slapped Erwazi on the shoulder with a big palm, which made Erwazi's thin body stagger, "Good boy, what a great idea, what a great idea, wait until you sneak into Xiangshan Mountain"
, I, the general, will remember you for your first achievement. Er, son, you go to the city to find some young ladies now, ah, no, it is better for me, the general, to go there in person, to avoid leaking the news!"
Zheng Zeshi patted his forehead and smiled silly. He almost did something stupid when he got happy. To do this kind of thing, you need to find a reliable sister. If you want to find an upright sister in a brothel, it is worse than finding a swarm of ants.
It's not much easier for the elephant.
Zheng Zeshi was busy choosing a reliable sister, but a sense of desolation began to fill the area around Jizhou, because the Manchu and Qing armies were escorting a large number of looted supplies and people to retreat to Liaodong.
On the sixth day of March in the twelfth year of Chongzhen, the mighty Jurchen army arrived in Jizhou. According to common sense, they had just plundered a large amount of wealth in the capital and escorted so many people of the Ming Dynasty. They should march quickly. After all, the capital was the Ming Dynasty.
The longer you stay in this place, the more dangerous it becomes. However, knowing that several Ming troops were chasing from behind and heavily besieged from the front, Dorgon still ordered to temporarily stop and rest in Jizhou.
The reason for this choice was that there was no other way. Although there were several Ming troops behind him, Dorgon was not too worried. With so many Ming people in his hands, those Ming troops would not dare to push too hard.
of.
But Tie Mo was different. The Northern Shanxi Army under his command would not care so much. If Tie Mo was really ruthless, he would really dare to do anything.
Liu Zhongxun's troops were stationed dozens of miles north of Jizhou. In order to block the Qing Dynasty's way north, Liu Zhongxun sent people to seal the Baihe River.
