The strategic plan for the Manchu Qing Dynasty was divided into three parts.
The first part is to concentrate powerful military forces to pursue and intercept Azig and Duduo, and to eliminate the effective forces of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
The hundreds of thousands of troops in the hands of Azig and Duduo were the foundation for the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
As long as this military force is eliminated, the Manchu Qing Dynasty will have its spine broken and will no longer be able to stand on its own.
The second part is aimed at Dorgon and the Manchu Qing court.
To force them to withdraw from the Central Plains, they could not go through Shanhaiguan and could only detour through the Mongolian grasslands.
Most of the people in the Manchu and Qing court were old, young, women and children. After such a difficult migration, their vitality must have been severely damaged.
And if I can’t go back to Liaodong, I will become a rootless duckweed.
As long as certain results are achieved on the battlefield in Liaodong, the overall situation will be irreversible.
The third part is the ultimate killer move of the empire.
Zhu Dingyan felt his kindness and was really grateful in his heart.
Urgent emergencies from all over the place were sent to Hetuala, leaving the guard here, Luo Sihan, unable to do anything.
He also knew what to do in return.
As the Manchus who fled from various places entered the city, rumors spread for a while and people were panicked.
Although he could not be a good lieutenant general and division commander, Mang Gurtai was still in high spirits and willing to be his deputy after catching up with Miao Niansheng.
Since the occupation of Shenyang and Liaoyang, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has moved most of its forces to the plains. In the mountains near Hetuala, only the old, weak, sick and disabled are left.
"Mr. Mang Gurtai, we will all listen to you on how to fight next."
After the Fifth Division crossed the Yalu River, it took only one hour to capture Jiulian City.
Although he survived, he was scolded by the Manchus, and no one thought that his defection was right.
Luo Sihan was also anxious and quickly sent someone to send a message to He Luohui in Shenyang, hoping to receive support.
That is Mang Gurtai.
Miao Niansheng has a good sense of the overall situation and has no idea of grabbing credit.
He wanted to go to Lao Khan's grave in person to accuse Huang Taiji of his crimes.
"From here, our troops will turn to the northwest, sweep outside the various camps and forts, wait for an opportunity to attack Tieling, and cooperate with the commander-in-chief to attack the northern line. The task of marching into Hetuala will be left to your seventh division."
However, when he heard that the National Defense Forces were going to use troops against Liaodong, Mang Gurtai could no longer sit still. He wrote several letters of request for war and sent them not only to the cluster headquarters, but also to Zuo Mengeng.
The northern route they took had few roads, and they had to cross the Changbai Mountains. They suffered enough along the way.
After all, conquering Hetuala is as great a feat as conquering Shenyang.
One camp after another was captured, and the 7th Division was unstoppable wherever it went.
Zhu Dingyan decided to hand over the next operations to Mang Gurtai's command.
But later on, he repeatedly made mistakes and his military achievements were not conspicuous, so he gradually became marginalized.
There is an obsession in his heart, and he will never feel at ease unless it is completely resolved.
Luo Sihan looked forward to the stars and the moon, but did not look forward to the reinforcements coming from the Heluo Society. Instead, he saw the endless defense forces in the mountains in the east gradually approaching the city.
"From here, you can go south along the Hun River to Tonghua. Turn west and go all the way to Hetuala. The road is fairly flat."
The forward of the Fifth Division has even approached Weining Camp.
Set foot on the land of Liaodong again, this old Jin Dabeile, who is nearly sixty years old, has been filled with tears in his eyes.
At least you are away from the intrigues at the top and don't have to worry about losing your life at any time.
When the Seventh Division's divine soldiers bypassed the Changbai Mountains and suddenly entered Liaodong, the nearby Manchus had no time to respond.
There were really few people left in the barren mountains of Liaodong, so the Manchus and Qing Dynasties could not resist them at all.
Under the guidance of Mang Gurtai, the Seventh Division made smooth progress along the Hun River.
But the strategic significance is huge.
Phoenix City, Tongyuan Fort, and Lianshanguan were successively captured by the Fifth Division.
Now that he had conquered Hetuala and returned to his old place, Mang Gurtai's heart was filled with excitement.
Not only that, he also wanted to fight to Shenyang, so that the dead Huang Taiji could take a good look at who was the final winner.
Zuo Mengeng understood his mood and gave special approval for Mang Gurtai to follow Miao Niansheng's troops.
Unexpectedly, the letters sent out asking for help were like a mud cow sinking into the sea, with no reply.
But the effect of their actions was very good.
Luo Sihan was born in the Ma Jia family and was already Niu Luzhangjing not long after the establishment of the Eight Banners.
Luo Sihan was not unwilling to do anything. He thought it would be good to hide in Hetuala and enjoy the happiness.
Once the Manchus in the precarious situation learned that their ancestral land had been lost, their fighting spirit would be lost and they would collapse completely.
Mang Gurtai was stunned for a moment, and then he understood everything.
He was persecuted by Huang Taiji and almost died, so he had to choose to defect.
However, they did not expect that Hetuala, which was in the rear area, would actually become the front line.
In addition, part of the Northern Military District also sent troops from Vladivostok to join the mopping up sequence.
In the Changbai Mountain Temple area on the west side of Changbai Mountain, the Seventh Division also completed a rendezvous with Miao Niansheng's troops who set off from Vladivostok.
Originally, according to the plan of the headquarters, Mang Gurtai's 12th Division was stationed on Xiayi Island to prepare for the situation in Japan.
Using an army of more than 100,000 to raid these places is simply killing a chicken with a sledgehammer.
Under the leadership of Zha Shubing, the Fifth Division advanced by leaps and bounds, sweeping along the official road.
The others followed Nurhaci to Liaoyang, and Shenyang enjoyed wealth and prosperity, while he was left in Hetuala to live a hard life.
Zhu Dingyan and Miao Niansheng discussed it and quickly made arrangements.
"Thank you all for your support. Just wait and see."
He stood up excitedly and bowed to all the generals.
Compared with the Fifth Division, Zhu Dingyan's Seventh Division was much more difficult to march.
Bai Xiaoqi led the main force of the Liaodong strategic cluster and sent troops out of North Korea to attack the home of the Qing Dynasty.
With someone like him who is familiar with the local geography, the National Defense Forces immediately seemed to have opened up the fog.
However, there was one more person in Miao Niansheng's group.
This road is an important passage connecting Liaodong and North Korea. An official road was built as early as the early Ming Dynasty, and now it is convenient for the Fifth Division.
Fifty thousand troops spread out, filling the entire mountain basin.
As long as you occupy this place and follow the Taizi River downstream, you can reach Liaoyang directly.
The two armies split up again.
Luo Sihan led his only soldiers and horses to stand on the slope of the city, unable to help but feel fear all over his body.
Today, there are only about 300 capable soldiers in the city, and the rest are all old, young, women and children.
Could it be that the Manchu land of Longxing cannot be saved?
Just when Luo Sihan was filled with despair, a general from the National Defense Force came out alone on a tall horse.
