Chapter 1413 Jia Heng: Soldiers will enter Jinzhou tomorrow!

Chapter 1413 Jia Heng:...The troops will enter Jinzhou tomorrow!

Liaoyang City

Wang Shuirong of Beijing was talking to Jia Fang. After a while, he saw Kang Hong, the admiral of Hebei Province, and Wei Che, the admiral of the Jiangnan Navy, entering the government hall.

Kang Hong said: "General Xiao Jia, we have suffered a lot of casualties in this battle. Let's rest for a few days before marching. Now that Liaoyang is in trouble, safety is the most important thing."

Jia Fang asked: "General Kang, will you first use your cavalry to go to Shengjing City to inquire about the news?"

Kang Hong smiled and said: "General Jia Fang, want to surprise Shengjing City with cavalry?"

Beijing Wang Shuirong smiled and said: "This is not easy."

This is not a novel. The capital of a country is heavily defended. There is obviously no such thing as a surprise attack.

Wei Che thought for a while and said: "It might not be a bad idea to use the cavalry to test the reality of Shengjing City first."

Wang Shuirong of Beijing said: "Since General Wei also said this, then I will follow General Wei's wishes."

Since the three of them had agreed, Jia Fang would lead a group of elite cavalry and rush towards Shengjing City to first explore Shengjing City's movements.





Ningyuan City, government office——

Jia Heng was sitting behind a lacquered wooden table, looking down at the map. His stern face seemed to be covered with a layer of golden gauze.

On the yellowed paper, to the north of the Hun River and Daling River is Jinzhou City, with mountains, rivers and city walls outlined on it.

At this moment, there was a burst of footsteps, and then Chen Xiao stepped into the government hall. His voice was as clear as water, and he could not hide his joy, saying: "The flying pigeon message just delivered from Jinyi Mansion, Liaoyang City has been breached.

"

Hearing this, Jia Heng looked up at Chen Xiao and asked, "Liaoyang City was destroyed so quickly?"

Chen Xiao said softly: "Liaoyang City is no different from Ningyuan City. They both attacked the city with artillery and blunderbuss, and then the city wall collapsed."

Jia Heng looked thoughtful, looked at Chen Xiao aggressively, and said softly: "As soon as Liaoyang breaks through, you will reach Shengjing City after crossing the Hun River."

Chen Xiao said softly: "Shui Rong sent a message with a flying pigeon to ask you if you want to send troops over?"

Jia Heng shook his head, looked fiercely, and whispered: "This matter will have to wait for a while. By the way, the city's food and ordnance supplies must be in place."

Chen Xiao said: "Everything has been shipped in the past few days."

Jia Heng said: "Wait a while, gather all the generals, organize the troops and horses, and my army will march towards Jinzhou on a certain day."

You should have almost rested in the past few days. It's time to send troops to Jinzhou.

Jia Heng said, and after a while, he came to the government hall, sat down behind the papers, and thought about the next strategy to defeat the enemy in Jinzhou City.

At this moment, in the hall——

Jia Heng sat down. At this moment, as the generals filed in, Jia Heng was summoned from his state of thinking.

"I've seen Commander-in-Chief," the generals said with a slight pause in their expressions.

Jia Heng's expression paused slightly and he said, "Generals, please get up."

With that said, Jia Heng picked up the flying pigeon message delivered by Jinyi Mansion and said: "Liaoyang City has been conquered, and our Han navy troops have reached Shengjing."

As soon as this statement came out, the expressions of all the generals present suddenly changed a little when they heard this statement, and for a while, there was a lot of discussion.

Jia Heng said: "As Liaoyang falls, the Jurchen Shengjing City is right under the front of our Han army."

When all the generals present heard this, their faces were filled with joy.

Cao Bianjiao said: "Commander, come to Liaoyang, the Jurchens have no danger to defend. They are already attacked from both sides. The main force of our army should also take action to put pressure on the Jurchen soldiers and horses in Jinzhou to prevent them from returning to support Shengjing and resist our big men."

Soldiers and horses.”

When King Chen Ran of Wei heard this, his face looked thoughtful.

Jia Heng said in a low voice: "It is not surprising that our Han Dynasty Navy has the advantage of firearms such as the Hongyi Cannon, and it also has the advantage of military strength. It can defeat the minority with more numbers, and the victory has been delayed until today."

At this moment, Chu King Chen Qin's eyes were filled with hope and he asked: "Zi Yu, can we send out troops?"

"After these few days of rest, the troops and horses have regained their fighting strength. The generals will go back and prepare to send troops to Jinzhou in these few days." Jia Heng said.

When all the generals heard this, they were very happy.

Once the army is launched, if there is another big victory in Jinzhou, the Jurchen city of Shengjing will be attacked from two directions, and the Jurchen country will soon be subjugated.

Jia Heng's face was calm, his eyes flashed aggressively, and he said loudly: "Next, General Cao will lead the elite cavalry as the vanguard to Jinzhou City."

Because Xie Zaiyi is currently leading the cavalry to guard against the Qing army in Jinzhou City, and at the same time he is looking for fighters, planning to surround them and attack Shengjing.

When Cao Bianjiao heard this, he clasped his fists and said yes.

Jia Heng said: "I will lead the army behind to hold down the formation. The generals will go back and reorganize their troops. We will march into Jinzhou tomorrow!"

Just like that, all the generals present clasped their fists in response.

In mid-July of the 19th year of Chongping, the soldiers and horses of the Han Beijing Camp in Ningyuan City marched towards Jinzhou City after a short rest.

The army was vast, with banners covering the sun, but the vanguard troops galloped ahead and reached the gates of Jinzhou City.

The cavalry led by Cao Bianjiao attacked Jinzhou City first.





Jinzhou City

At this moment, Dorgon was dressed in a python-suited prince's robe and sat on a pearwood chair behind a lacquered wood desk. His face seemed to be shrouded by dark clouds, and his eyes were full of worry.

After the destruction of Ningyuan City, Dorgon maintained this state of thinking hard about how to defeat the enemy for some time.

Azig quickly entered the official hall of the Yamen, looked at Dorgon with his eyes, and said: "Fourteenth brother, the city wall has been reinforced for one layer, and a new layer of urn city has been built inside.

This is to prevent, like Ningyuan City, after the city wall collapsed, the army suddenly entered the city and the soldiers and horses in the city collapsed into a pot of porridge.

Dorgon said: "The Han army's cannons are too powerful, so don't be careless next."

Azig sighed and said, "Did my fourteenth brother come up with any strategies to defeat the enemy these days?"

Dorgon's face was as gloomy as iron, and he said loudly: "What else can I think of? I can only defend the city and wait for change."

Azig nodded and said: "Jia Heng, son, is not a fuel-efficient lamp. After that, the artillery and muskets will be fired, and I, Jinzhou City, may not be able to stop him."

Under Dorgon's thick eyebrows, his eyes were cold and stern, and he said: "You have to block it even if you can't. It has been more than 30 years since the founding of the Qing Dynasty. God will bless my Qing Dynasty."

Azig was silent for a moment.

At this moment, Dorgon nodded and asked: "Do you have the latest information from Liaoyang?"

Azig shook his head and said: "In the past two days, I haven't seen any report from Luck Dehun asking for reinforcements."

Dorgon frowned, and coincidentally, at this moment, he saw a guard wearing white cannon-nailed armor striding into the hall, with a solemn expression, he cupped his fists towards Dorgon and said: "Your Majesty, from Liaoyang

Urgent report."

When Dorgon heard this, he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, and asked in surprise: "What kind of military report?"

Could it be another military report urging more troops for rescue? I hope so.

The guard looked ugly and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Liaoyang City has been destroyed."

As soon as he said this, Dorgon stood up suddenly, exuding an indescribable awe-inspiring aura.

Azig's majestic face also showed a look of surprise.

The city of Liaoyang was destroyed? Then didn’t Shengjing... face the front line of the Han army?

The Jurchens did not have much strategic depth in the country.

"Where is Prince Shuncheng?" Azige's expression suddenly changed, his heart was filled with anger, and he asked urgently.

Thirty thousand people can't even defend a small Liaoyang city!

Those who besieged Liaoyang were only a partial division of the Han navy.

And the guard said: "Prince Shuncheng has left Liaoyang City and is heading towards Shengjing City."

Dorgon's face was extremely depressed, and he felt endless sadness deep in his heart.

A person who is greedy for life and afraid of death?!

Azige, whose face was ashen on the side, said angrily: "Trash! Trash! I really misjudged him! He actually abandoned the city and fled!"

There was also a look of anger on Dorgon's depressed face, and he shouted: "Being greedy for life and afraid of death, I abandoned the city and fled, and I lost the face of my Aixinjueluo clan."

The two brothers continued to criticize Luck Dehun, and their faces gradually became angry.

But then a deep feeling of despair arose in my heart.

Ning Yuanfang was defeated, and Liaoyang fell again. This is a situation where two ghosts are fighting against each other. Is the Qing Dynasty really going to end?

Dorgon sat slumped in the armchair, thinking non-stop.

Azige's face was as gloomy as iron, and he asked worriedly: "Fourteenth brother, now Liaoyang has been defeated, Shengjing City is under the enemy's front, how do Fourteenth Brother plan to deal with it? Should we send troops and horses to Shengjing to prevent the Han?"

The army breaks through?"

Dorgon gradually calmed down and said in a low voice: "Luke Dehun has fled back to Shengjing City. Let him pay for his crime and perform meritorious service. We and Shuo Sai will be on defense for the time being, which is enough to deal with the situation."

Azig also reacted and said: "In this case, Luck Dehun fled back to Shengjing, could it be..."

"It seems that the situation is over, so we have to abandon the city and leave." Dorgon looked sad, sighed, and ordered: "Prepare pen and ink, I will write a letter to him immediately. This time there is no retreat, let him

Live and die with Shengjing City!"

How could Shengjing City abandon the city and defend it? What would the Queen Mother and Fulin do at that time?

Under Azig's thick eyebrows, his tiger eyes flashed aggressively and he said: "Fourteenth brother, how will we march and use our troops next?"

Dorgon's expression paused slightly, and he whispered: "Stand ready."

Now, the Jurchen side has no troops to maneuver, like a grasshopper that has been nailed to death, unable to move at all.

At this moment, a general from outside the hall hurriedly entered the hall and said: "Your Majesty, the cavalry of the Han army was discovered by the Daling River."

"The Han army has moved." Azige said with a slightly solemn expression and an aggressive look in his eyes.

Dorgon frowned, looked a little deeper, and said coldly: "This is taking advantage of Liaoyang's victory and trying to take advantage of it."

It can be said that Jia Heng gave Dorgon the impression of a seasoned chess player, playing steadily and step by step, blocking the Jurchen soldiers and horses to a dead end step by step.

Azig nodded, with a worried look on his face, and asked: "Fourteenth brother, will Shengjing send more troops for reinforcements?"

"Ignore Shengjing for now, and first guard the city strictly. There are already troops and horses left in Shengjing, which are enough to deal with the Han Dynasty's naval coalition. Our army is facing the main force of the Han army, and we must not relax at all." Dorgon and Dorgon said.

Under the thick eyebrows, his eyes are deep.

Now that things have come to this, we can only stay calm.

When Azige heard this, his lips moved and he stopped talking, but a layer of haze gradually formed in his heart.

Today's Qing Dynasty is really in danger of ruining the country.





Just when Dorgon in Jinzhou City was worried about the attack on Ningyuan City and Liaoyang, the Han army and the Korean army led by Prince Mu Sheng of Dongping County also marched towards Hetuala from Manpu and fought against the Jurchens at Niumao Village.

The soldiers and horses were handed over.

At this moment, the Jurchen general leading the guard was Mandahai.

Niumaozhai

This mountain stronghold stands on the mountain. As the only way to Hetuala, it controls the key points of the thoroughfare. It can be said that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Mandahai led only 20,000 soldiers and horses this time, but he was facing 20,000 to 30,000 Han troops and 100,000 North Korean allied troops. The opponent had strong soldiers and horses, a large number of people, and a certain number of red barbarians.

cannon.

There had been a battle before, but the Han army's combat power was slightly inferior, but after all, with its large number of soldiers and horses, it actually had the upper hand at this moment.

In the mountain stronghold, in the military tent——

Mandahai paced back and forth in the military tent with his hands behind his back, undecided in his mind whether to fight or retreat.

Because in this case, Niumao Village could not defend it for long, but with Hetuala City behind it, it was impossible to abandon the defense of the city and let the Han court officers and soldiers drive straight in.

Otherwise, the city of Hetuala will be destroyed under artillery fire.

Hetuala City has always been an old stronghold of the Qing Dynasty. For example, the tombs of Nurhaci and his father and ancestors are in this city. There are also 10,000 to 20,000 soldiers and horses stationed in the city.

Mandahai frowned, his eyes flickered, and he was thinking about ways to defeat the enemy, with a look of anxiety on his face.

But at this moment, a general wearing armor of choice strode into the military tent with his head held high. His expression was hurried and there was panic in his eyes, and he said: "Your Majesty, this is a military report from Shengjing."

When Mandahai heard this, he looked surprised and asked: "Here from Shengjing? What kind of military report is coming at this time?"

With that said, he motioned to the guards on the side to quickly leave, and bowed to the general to take him over.

"Ningyuan City was captured by the Han army." The general looked extremely anxious, his eyes flashing under his thick eyebrows, and he said in a deep voice.

Because Liaoyang City had not been breached until recently, the battle report was not delivered as soon as possible.

Man Dahai took the military report from the small school and read it attentively, with a look of surprise in his aggressive eyes.

The military report in my hand was trembling a little.

Ningyuan City was destroyed and Prince Zheng died in battle?

How can this be?

But then I thought about it. The opponent Prince Zheng faced in Ningyuan City was the Duke of Wei, who dominated the world. Such a defeat seemed... natural.

This is the psychological advantage that Jia Heng has established in the war against the Jurchens in recent years.

Just when Mandahai was in inexplicable shock, the sound of "dong dong" drums was suddenly heard. It was clearly that the drums were as dense as raindrops, and the Han army launched another attack.

Mandahai suppressed the complicated thoughts in his heart, called a deputy general, and whispered: "Follow me and go have a look."

Mu Sheng, the crown prince of Dongping County, also received military information about the destruction of Ningyuan City through the flying pigeon messenger of Jinyi Mansion the day before.

On a mound three miles away from the mountain stronghold, Mu Sheng put down the monocular telescope in his hand and said to the general on the side: "The commander has conquered Ningyuan City and annihilated countless Tartars. We here cannot afford to fall behind."

Lieutenant General Wei Tong said: "Your Majesty, as soon as Ningyuan City is broken, the Jurchens will be pushed into the corner."

Mu Sheng said: "Yes, with the ability of the public troops to defend the country, it is only a matter of time for Songjin to win a big victory. However, we must also cut off the Jurchens' escape route and prevent them from escaping to Hetuala."

.”

As Mu Sheng's military order fell, the small apricot triangular flags kept waving. Then, the drums of the Han army were as dense as raindrops, crackling, and a large number of soldiers and horses surged towards the mountain stronghold.

"Boom boom..."

The rumbling sound of artillery sounded, and earth and rocks flew everywhere on the mountain stronghold. A large number of Jurchen bannermen did not know how to fight back at this moment, and they just suffered.

Mu Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly and shouted: "Send people to continue bombing with red cannons."

At the beginning, the Jiangnan Navy and the Denglai Navy jointly went to the Japanese country to conquer the Japanese country, but they still left behind a number of red cannons. Although they are not carrying many at the moment, only a dozen cannons, they are still used.

"Boom boom!!!"

Cannonballs suddenly fell on the mountain stronghold. After a while, sand and rocks were flying, and the vision was obscured.

A large number of North Korean generals not far away, such as Li Shang, Tian Siquan and others, looked at this scene in stunned silence, secretly saying that the Central Plains Celestial Kingdom had really sharp firearms and was intimidating.

But this kind of bombardment is undoubtedly unsustainable.

Then, with the help of artillery fire, the Han army launched a massive attack on the city.

At this moment, the Qing army on the mountain stronghold also recovered from the bombardment and began to raise their bows and crossbows to fight back at the Han army.

"Whizzing……"

Arrows shot through the air and landed on the shields in the hands of the Han army and the Korean army, making a clanging sound, mixed with some "pop" and "pop" sounds as they penetrated the flesh.

The Han army and the North Korean allied forces rushed towards the mountain stronghold. At this moment, looking down from a high altitude, they saw balls of flames that seemed to be burning all over the mountains and plains.

At this moment, Mandahai, accompanied by several soldiers, was inspecting the battle situation. Seeing this scene, he frowned secretly.

"Your Majesty, the firepower of the Han army is too fierce." The deputy general on the side looked solemn and said.

Mandahai's face was as solemn as ice and he said in a deep voice: "Don't worry about it, they want to attack the stronghold no matter what. Besides, the geographical position of the stronghold is not conducive to the deployment of troops and horses. This is our chance to defend the stronghold."

Although the Han army's artillery and blunderbuss are powerful, when the two armies confront each other and attack a city, it is impossible to use artillery and blunderbuss all the time. In the end, they have to fight hand-to-hand.

After all, this is not the future of drone massacre and infantry coming out to clean up the battlefield.

Then, as the two armies fought in close combat, as Mandahai said, the Han and Korean soldiers faced the elite soldiers of the Eight Banners, and their actual combat capabilities were much inferior.

When Mandahai saw the Han army approaching, he was repulsed by his Eight Banners bannermen.

Mu Sheng was holding a monocular telescope below, looking at the mountain village, his brows gradually furrowed a little.

Lieutenant General Wei Tong said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, our army is not as powerful as the Jurchens."

Mu Sheng's frown gradually relaxed and he said: "Attack first. Our army has many soldiers and horses and we are not afraid of casualties."

Wei Tong gently responded with a yes.
