Huang Taiji in Shengjing City received the news of Lu Hanqiang's return to Beijing for the first time, and when he was holding this small flying pigeon report, he couldn't help but tremble with excitement, he had been waiting for this time for too long, and he had been out of breath for a long time.
In the summer of this year, Lu Hanqiang launched a three-way decisive attack on himself, the momentum carried by this attack is unprecedented, no matter which of the three roads, he has put his front in jeopardy, and reports to the capital for help through various channels every day, just like snowflakes, the high call for help is about to collapse the huge bookcase carved by Nanmu in front of him.
But no matter how the generals in the three places prayed for reinforcements, Huang Taiji just held his four fully equipped Manchurian Eight Banners and did not move, this is his last strength, this force must be able to achieve a single blow, completely overturn the situation in Liaodong.
Now Huang Taiji is biting a truth, let him Lu Hanqiang attack several armies, he can only go all the way, it is better to cut off one of his fingers than to hurt his ten fingers, as long as he breaks one of Lu Hanqiang's fingers, relying on Lu Hanqiang's character, he must retract, then this battle is almost equal to his own victory, and if Lu Hanqiang stupidly goes back to rescue Jingshi, then God will pity himself, then his entire plan will be realized, then the world's biggest enemy will be wiped out.
Struggled to support, just watching Xinmin Liaozhong Niuzhuang, trembling in the war, he could already hear these three places, supporting their waist and spine rattling.
"Your Majesty, most of the Xinmin has fallen, Li Guohan went out of the city to attack the elite of Liaoxi has not known what to do, Tong Tulai can only take the remnants of the defeated generals, shrinking in less than half of the towns, doing the last dying struggle, today has sent five flying pigeon heralds, asking the emperor to send reinforcements, Tong Tulai said, if you don't send reinforcements, Xinmin City will soon fall."
Duo chose to whisper a letter asking for help and put it on Huang Taiji's desk.
Huang Taiji didn't even look at it: "You can reply to Tong Tulai now, just say that his loyalty is already known, you tell him, just use this method of street fighting to consume the vitality of the Liao army, as long as I hold on for another ten days, I will make up for all the bannermen he has lost, and I will compensate him twice as much for all the property he has lost." ” "What about ten days from now," Duo Xue asked cautiously.
"Ten days later, even if the army of the Fuliao Army hits Shengjing City, it will have nothing to do with him."
"What about Liaozhong, Liaozhong is also in danger, do you need to be rescued?"
Huang Taiji glanced sideways and made many choices: "He Shi Tingzhu attacked Tai'an on my orders when he faced Shi Kefa last time, and he took the logistics base of the Ming Dynasty without blood, and he got countless grains and grass, he didn't think that I was a blind man, he killed all the officials who managed logistics in the Ming Dynasty, and burned the account books of the Ming Dynasty, I knew that he took at least half of the capture, is he still not satisfied?"
Then he snorted angrily: "With that huge amount of money and grain, occupying the richest land in the entire Liao, the largest population, I can be said to value her very much, in this time of embarrassment, it is the time when he needs to contribute, you tell him, this time, I let go of his recruitment number, and no longer pursue the previous crime of concealing money and grain, as long as he keeps Liaozhong for me, after the end of this war, I will make him a county king, and it is hereditary." ” Such a pardon has to be said to be very generous, such a promise has to be said to be very generous, if Shi Tingzhu does not contribute again, then his fate will be in jeopardy.
So he didn't dare to say anything more.
But in the end, he was still unwilling, so he suggested to Huang Taiji on official business.
"Shi Tingzhu guards Liaozhong, facing Wang Dazhuang, the strongest of the Fuliao army, and the reserve army of the Fuliao army, it is indeed very difficult, and if Liaozhong loses, it will cut off the connection between our Shengjing and Niuzhuang, and our future actions will be passive.
According to the minister's suggestion, immediately let the Han people with a white flag Bayan whole army stationed in Liaozhong, be Shi Tingzhu's deputy, and keep our north-south passage. ” Huang Taiji thought about it and thought that what he said made sense, so he nodded in agreement.
"How is the battle situation in Niuzhuang?"
Huang Taiji asked most about the battle situation in Niuzhuang every day.
Since the last time the two sides found that the road along the way had been cut off by the secret agents of the Fuliao army, between Huang Taiji and Liu Zhiyuan, they all relied on flying pigeons to pass the book, and during this period, they could only talk about it briefly, but not in detail.
But every time Huang Taiji asks the most, it is always this Niu Zhuang.
Duo Xue pondered for a while, thinking about sorting out the various flying pigeon biography every day, and then solemnly replied to the report: "Niuzhuang Liu Zhiyuan is worthy of a general, and loyal to the emperor, he used to take the grain and grass we allocated to him, returned to his territory, not only strengthened the city defense of Niuzhuang, but also recruited 30,000 young soldiers at once, strictly supervised and trained, and the effect was indeed quite good."
In the training of the army, Liu Zhiyuan has a hand, and in terms of boosting morale, Liu Zhiyuan has done a better job, he used his younger brother in the territory of the wide spread of kindness, played the banner of revenge for his younger brother, is very cohesive, from the perspective of the entire mental condition and combat effectiveness, Liu Zhiyuan is well-deserved in the middle of the Han Eight Banners, although the Liao army is strong and well-armed, but the Niu Zhuang is still helpless, Xinmin and Liaozhong are in danger, only Niu Zhuang, the Fu Liao army is almost no inch in there, And under this fortified city, constantly consuming troops, losing troops and losing generals, judging from the situation reported by Liu Zhiyuan yesterday, in this short period of ten days, the Fuliao army in front of Niuzhuang City, exhausted all means, can only hit the head and break the blood, according to Liu Zhiyuan's rough estimate, the Fuliao army in Niuzhuang City, at least seven or eight thousand people and horses. ” Huang Taiji slowly sat back in his seat thoughtfully, his fingers kept dancing, and he muttered to himself, and after a long time, he raised his head and said to Duo Xue: "You send another team of messengers to rush to Niuzhuang with my holy decree, and tell Liu Zhiyuan that you must let him stick to the end, as long as I relieve the siege of Xinmin in the near future, I will lead a large army to relieve him of the siege, and when the war is won, a county king will belong to him." ” The road connection between Shengjing City and Niuzhuang has been completely cut off by the secret agents of the Fuliao army, and such an emergency military situation is still transmitted in this way, which can only show one thing, that is, Huang Taiji wants to tell the enemy the news, and he nodded yes with many choices. t1706231537:
