Chapter 9: Bloody Battle Ning Yuanxia (2)
"Woo...woo..."
A series of horns of attacks came from the Later Jin camp, and the Later Jin launched the 98th siege against Ningyuan City at dawn on September 9.
Huang Taiji ordered people to launch red-clothed cannons that had not been used for several days. This kind of thing could not be made in the Later Jin Dynasty, and one shell would be reduced. Therefore, Huang Taiji was extremely precious. He did not understand how many powerful advanced firearms in the Ming Dynasty were repeatedly defeated by himself. In addition to the cavalry factor, his Eight Banners soldiers could fight the Ming Dynasty, and even more than three soldiers. Why is this happening? After fighting with the Ming army over the years, he realized a truth, that is, whether he could win a battle. Weapons and food pay are of great importance, the key is to rely on people and brains. He read and studied the "Three Kingdoms" carefully.
》, There are many examples of defeating the strong with the weak and defeating the big with the small. Huang Taiji always reads "Three Kingdoms" before going to bed. Although he admires the "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and is also familiar with the thirty-six strategies, he is far less able to understand those military books than "Three Kingdoms". Every time he reads "Three Kingdoms", he can understand something from it and apply it to his own rule of the country and the army. For more than ten years, he has been fucked by a "Three Kingdoms". He also shows that it is treasured in the treasure box at the head of the bed, and also requires his subordinates to read "Three Kingdoms" to learn strategies and wisdom.
Since the Iron Armored Army of the Later Jin Dynasty began to attack the city, Yuan Chonghuan brought his confidant Xie Shangzheng to the city tower and lead the Ming officers on the city.
This time Huang Taiji was really playing. Three red-clothed cannons were concentrated and fired shells in a row, trying to step on the north gate of Ningyuan City. Yuan Chonghuan learned about Huang Taiji's conspiracy. In addition to constantly letting the red-clothed cannons on the city to fire at the three red-clothed cannons seized by the Later Jin Dynasty, he constantly commanded the people in the city to transport stones to the north gate. If the city gate could not hold on, these stones could quickly block the city gate and prevent the army of the Later Jin Dynasty from coming in.
The Iron Armored Army was fearless and fell down in front. The one behind was filled up, and the one behind waved sharp swords and climbed up to Ningyuan City Tower. The Ming army was not willing to be outdone. They had the advantage of defense, and some firearms, bird guns, three-eyed bird guns and small franchises kept firing under the city, shooting deadly and injuring countless iron armored troops of the Jin Eight Banners!
"Master, we have not much fire, at most we can only hold on until dark. If the Later Jin attacks continuously!" Zhao Shujiao made great contributions, so he naturally went on the battle himself, commanding the Ming army to fight back to death at the East Gate. There was no clean area on his body, and a piece of white cloth was wrapped around his arm, and blood kept oozing out. He hurriedly ran to Yuan Chonghuan and reported.
"Yes, Grandmaster, I just counted some inventory. We can hold on to the grain for two days, but we can only hold on to the shells until tonight." The supervisor Xing Shenyan had already put down his personal grudges at this time and ran over to report in a dusty manner. A shell from Hou Jin happened to fall near the warehouse where the Han Jin had almost buried him alive.
"Damn, what did Huang Taiji want to do? I can't wait to force him to fight him!" Zuo Fu, the general of Dalinghe, also ran over with him.
"What does Huang Taiji want to do?" The generals were thinking about this question, attacking Ningyuan so crazy, regardless of casualties. From dawn to now, it has not stopped for almost an hour. Three red-clothed cannons also bombarded one of the red-clothed cannons on Ningyuan Tower and exploded one in the hall. Only this red-clothed cannon was still firing shells on Ningyuan City. There were only four red-clothed cannons in Ningyuan City in total, two of which were reimbursed in the previous few siege operations. The remaining two are now attacking the only red-clothed cannon left in the Later Jin Dynasty. The first Ningyuan battle was all used in all kinds of fighting styles. Now there are only white knives that can be used to fight the red knives.
"Master, Ning Yuan can't stand it anymore. You can lead the people to break through!" Zhao Ruijiao knelt in front of Yuan Chonghuan and cried, "Your 20 military sticks will only be returned in the next life!"
"Zhao Rujiao, what are you talking nonsense? When did this general say that he would leave Ning Yuan and break through alone?" Yuan Chonghuan stood up and glared at Zhao Rujiao fiercely and said, "Forty military sticks, after this battle is over, no matter how many military contributions you make, these forty military sticks will not be missing!"
"Master..." Zhao Rujiao burst into tears and started fighting fiercely and shouted at the Ming soldiers around him: "I, Zhao Rujiao, knowing that I can only welcome you with speculative means. The Master is as kind as a mountain. I can have such a status today. Brothers, the people of Ningyuan City are looking at us, and the people in the pass are looking at us? We are all bloody men of the Ming Dynasty. We must not allow the Jin people to invade our homes and bully our parents and people. Do you think so?"
"Yes!" A shocking answer sounded around.
"Care with me!" Zhao Rujiao felt his blood boiling. When he had a conflict with Mangui, it was the Grand Marshal who protected him, but instead transferred Mangui to Shanhaiguan. Now, the Grand Marshal who protected him, leaving no one behind him. Now he understood that it was time for him to repay the Grand Marshal, so his courage doubled and took the lead in pulling out the blood-filled sword and rushed over.
"Kill..." The hundreds of soldiers following him shouted loudly and rushed to the east wall!
Looking back, I found that Yuan Chonghuan's eyes were already wet.
"Master!" The generals around him knelt down.
"Transfer the general order of this commander, and the assault camp will be carried out!" Yuan Chonghuan made a vow in his heart, vowing to live and die with Ning Yuan.
"Master, please follow us to break through!" Zuo Fu, the leader of the assault camp and general of Daling River, begged.
"No need to say more, go quickly!" Yuan Chonghuan kicked Zuo Fu down and shouted sternly.
"Master!" The general who broke through the assault camp knelt all over the ground and begged.
Yuan Chonghuan was so angry that he drew out his sword and pointed at these generals and said, "Whoever does not respect the general's order, I will kill anyone first. If there is any mistake in Shanhaiguan, you will be the sinners of my Ming Dynasty. Even if I don't kill you, you will be the infamy for generations. Why don't you go quickly!"
The generals surrounded Yuan Chonghuan and kowtowed three times, then flew onto the horse, clasped their fists at Yuan Chonghuan and said, "Master, we will come back as soon as possible, take care of yourself!"
"Assault camp, follow me!" Zuo Fu ordered the officers and soldiers behind him with a horse's belly.
The Ming army's cavalry was generally not as good as the Eight Banners soldiers of the Later Jin Dynasty, but these three thousand assault battalions were selected from the 40,000 officers and soldiers of Ningyuan, and there was an elite soldier of a hundred miles. The cavalry asked himself that every cavalry that was not under the elite cavalry of the Later Jin Dynasty, especially the commander of Zuo Fu, which was the commander of the powerful general. There should be no big problem in breaking through Huang Taiji's siege.
Seeing the Three Thousand Assault Battalion rushing out of the southern gate, Yuan Chonghuan and the remaining generals continued to join the cruel battle to defend the city.
The reason why Huang Taiji wanted to attack Ningyuan fiercely was that on the one hand, he wanted to increase the Eight Banners soldiers' experience in siege, and on the other hand, he forced the overwhelming 30,000 reinforcements to speed up the aid of Ningyuan, so that he would not have the opportunity to return to Shanhaiguan.
"Great Khan, Azigbele came to report that the Ningyuan city suddenly rushed out of about three thousand cavalry from the south gate, trying to break through his defense line. Now it has been blocked by Azigtaiji in front of a small hill three miles south of the city!"
"Who led the soldiers?" Huang Taiji frowned and asked.
"It's Yuan Chonghuan's deputy general Zuo Fu." said the personal soldiers sent by Ajige.
"Xiandou, where did Xiongba's thirty-three thousand reinforcements rush to Ningyuan?" Huang Taiji lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and asked Fan Wencheng who was close to him.
"According to the scouts, the domineering forward battalion is about 80 miles away, and it will arrive in about an hour."
"Who is responsible?"
"The general who led the army was named Wu Sangui, who was sixteen years old this year. He is the second son of Wu Xiang, the general of Jinzhou whom we captured!"
"Haha, this is really God helping me. With Wu Xiang in hand, Wu Sangui is not ready to take over. How can this Xiongba use troops? And the stingy King Xin, who is still not dry, no, the current emperor of the Beijing court dares to use Wu Sangui at this time. Don't he know that Wu Sangui's father is in the hands of Ben Khan? It seems that Nan Ming's aura is about to reach its peak." Huang Taiji laughed after hearing this. He was originally a little uneasy about the Nan Ming's Xinwang's actions in Beijing. He reported to him one by one the detailed works he sent. He was originally very wary of the newly ascended King Xinwang. Now it seems that his worries are simply redundant.
Ye Chen, Li Yongfang and others behind Huang Taiji immediately flattered themselves with a smile, saying that Huang Taiji was a monarch greater than Genghis Khan. Huang Taiji was so proud that he laughed happily.
"Khan, this Wu Xiang still refuses to surrender to my Dajin. I'm afraid this Wu Sangui is not so easy to surrender." Fan Wencheng said carefully, "You Tao is to accompany the king as if you are a tiger. No matter which monarch is the same, it doesn't like to ruin the scenery, but the situation will happen."
Huang Taiji is a person with a heart. He told himself that if a person does not have a heart, he will not achieve great things. So although he was a little unhappy about what Fan Wencheng said just now, he did not blame him, and said, "What do you mean by Xian Dou?"
"A few days ago, we were walking and rumored that Wu Xiang had surrendered to our Dajin. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty did not arrest Wu Sangui, but instead assigned the important task of the Forward Front Camp. It can be seen that Wu Sangui has gained the trust of the Ming court, so the method of separation is no longer available. Moreover, he has led the Three Thousand Forward Front Camp. The only way is to use Wu Xiang to force Wu Sangui to surrender!"
"What if it's useless?" Huang Taiji asked back.
"I have investigated. Although Wu Sangui is naughty, he is extremely filial. I think he will choose between loyalty and filial piety." Fan Wencheng smiled slightly and said confidently.
"Okay, you will deal with this matter yourself. Ben Khan will send you five hundred soldiers with you!" Huang Taiji was overjoyed when he heard this. He did not take Zuo Fu's 3,000 assault camp out of the south gate. With a powerful general and brother like Ajige, even the 30,000 Ming troops might not be able to pass by him.
