In the evening, he convened a meeting with generals above the director level and said: "It is impossible for Haizhou to allow its slaves to suffer losses.
They will try to capture it no matter what.
So now I have two ideas.
One is to let all Gaizhou's troops come to Haizhou." , relying on this city to consume the strength of Jiannu, and the second is to let part of the Gaizhou army come to cover our slow retreat, and use Gaizhou as a stronghold to deal with Jiannu.
Each of these two ideas has its advantages and disadvantages.
If you can't make up your mind, come and check it out. " Du Guangting said anxiously: "Haizhou has enough food, but Jiannu is not good at attacking the city, so we will turn this city into a flesh and blood grinder and let Jiannu shed all his blood here."
Sun Fumin, commander of the artillery battalion, looked at the map and said: "Haizhou is farther from Gaizhou than Liaoyang, let alone Anshan.
The point is that we don't have enough people.
We have two cavalry battalions in one brigade and less than one artillery battalion.
We can barely It’s less than 6,000.
If Jiannu mobilizes more than 15,000, Haizhou will definitely not be able to defend it, especially since our artillery battalion doesn’t have enough artillery shells.
We didn’t originally think of defending Haizhou. " Dai Chunfeng also participated in the meeting as a representative of the staff.
He said: "Due to the small number of Jiannu, they did not use ladders.
They are still conducting exploratory attacks.
When reinforcements arrive, Haizhou lacks artillery shells.
I am afraid that they will not Easy to deal with.”
Other officers expressed their opinions.
Most of them felt that it was not worthwhile to defend.
They knew the advantage of the Guards, which was guarding.
It could deal with one and a half times the enemy force relying on simple fortifications.
If it relied on a fortified city to deal with two It's okay if there are twice as many enemy troops, but if the disparity in numbers is too great, it still won't work.
Lu Xiangsheng finally concluded: "Then we have no choice but to retreat.
We retreat step by step, first to Tashanpu, then to Yaozhouyi, then to Li Luoguo, and finally back to Gaizhou.
The problem now is what to do with the things we can't take away.
All supplies.”
The generals thought about the mountains of grain and grass, but had no way to transport them away, and felt extremely reluctant to give them up.
Finally, they decided to select good wheat and make emergency military rations.
Each person would bring five days' reserves and feed the war horses with good food before retreating. , burned everything that could be burned when leaving, leaving only an empty city for Jiannu.
Lu Xiangsheng decided to start retreating after three days, and sent people to break out from the loose enemy siege at night, so that the entire first brigade could be dispatched to meet at Tashanpu.
At the same time, Nurhaci was angry in Liaoyang.
It was nothing if Haizhou was occupied by the Ming army, because the Ming army could attack Haizhou from many directions.
He first thought it was the Ming army coming from western Liaoning, but soon reported that Yaozhou and Gaizhou were coming.
It has also been lost.
Although there is no news from Jinzhou and Fuzhou, we can know from the map that these two places are probably in danger.
He ordered Yue Tuo to attack Haizhou, but there was no news of victory for so many days, but at this time he received news from Jinzhou and Fuzhou: Liu Aita had surrendered to the enemy, including Li Yongfang's eldest son Li Yangeng.
Liu Aita defected to Nurhaci in the 33rd year of Wanli.
Nurhachi always trusted him, treated him as a son-in-law, and made him the chief military officer in charge of the Southern Fourth Guards.
However, he actually defected to the enemy.
Li Yongfang surrendered to Nurhaci in the forty-sixth year of Wanli.
Nurhachi married Beil Abatai's daughter.
In the process of conquering Qinghe, Tieling, Liaoyang, and Shenyang, he was awarded the title of chief military officer for his meritorious service.
Now his The eldest son also surrendered to the enemy The anger in the old slave's heart was unspeakable, and he killed three Bao Yi with excuses before he calmed down a little.
He quickly sent someone to summon Li Yongfang, and wanted to ask him why his eldest son had surrendered to the enemy.
In fact, Li Yongfang had also received the news that his eldest son had surrendered to the Ming Dynasty.
Nurhaci had people call him.

He knew that something was wrong, but he was helpless.
As the first general to surrender to the Jin Dynasty, even if he surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, the Ming court would also He will not be forgiven, not to mention that unlike Liu Xingzuo, his wife, children, and children are all in Liaoyang, and there is no way to escape alone.
As soon as he saw Nurhaci, Li Yongfang immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "This slave has failed to teach his son well, please be punished by the Great Khan."
Originally, the generals of the Han army were not called slaves, but Li Yongfang wanted to impress Nurhachi with his affection, thinking about himself.
The advantage is that his punishment will be slightly lighter.
Nurhachi asked solemnly: "Why did Yan Geng surrender to the enemy?"
Li Yongfang thought for a while and said: "Great Khan, Liu Aita must have coerced my son.
My son has always been loyal to the Great Khan and he will not surrender to the enemy on his own."
He only knew that his son had surrendered to the enemy, but he did not know the specific situation.
Then the golden spy reported the detailed situation to Nurhaci.
Nurhachi said angrily: "Come here, tie up this traitor."
Immediately, two men in white armor pulled off Li Yongfang's hat and tied it up with a rope.
Nurhachi held a whip and struck Li Yongfang on the face with a whip, leaving a bloody mark immediately.
He swore and cursed: "He carried a thorn stick on his back, planted a straw mark, knelt down and begged for mercy, and said it was Liu Aita who had coerced him.
You and your son wanted to return to the Ming court, so he surrendered to the enemy."
Li Yongfang gritted his teeth and remained silent for fear of irritating Nurhaci.
Unexpectedly, Nurhachi became even angrier, whipped him harder, and continued to curse: "I know you Han people look down on me and think I am a barbarian.
If you hadn't met me that day, Fushun is not guaranteed You will not surrender to me.
You were just a small guerrilla back then.
I asked you to marry the daughter of the clan, and I made you the commander-in-chief.
You are still an immature dog.
As long as the original owner calls you a little, You will abandon me immediately and I will beat you to death."
He cried while whipping, he treated you Han people so well, Liu Aita came back almost twenty years ago, and you, as a subordinate, even ran back your eldest son.
Could it be that the Hua-Yi debate was over?
If he is so powerful, will he, a barbarian, always remain a barbarian?
He cried and continued to beat him, and in the end he only had one sentence left: "I know you look down on me."
Li Yongfang neither dared to argue nor dodge, and was about to be beaten to death.
At this time, Huang Taiji and Mang Gurtai, who had received the news, ran in.
They did not dare to stop Nurhaci, but shouted from the side: "Father, Li Afu is about to die."
Nurhachi whipped him a few more times and then stopped.
At this time, Li Yongfang had fainted at the right time.
After Nurhachi vented his anger, he felt a little better.
He said to Huang Taiji and Mang Gurtai: "Zhengbai and Zhenglan each sent fifteen Niulu.
We must capture Haizhou, annihilate the Ming army, and Liu Ai."
Capture Ta and Li Tinggeng and I will execute them Ling Chi
