Chapter 452: The Han Army Enters the Land


Ji'erharang stepped forward and bowed deeply at this time, "King Binghan, in Zhuozhou back then, this Zhao Lie used his gunpowder bags to cause heavy losses to our army.

Zhao Lie's men will definitely do the same thing again this time." ” Jilharang's words were like pouring a handful of cold water on the brazier, which made everyone's fierce fighting spirit drop a lot.

Of course, no one blamed him, after all, he was trying to preserve his own strength.

Of course, seeing your prey right in front of you but unable to see it, the anxiety is really tormenting.

Young people like Dorgon and Duduo are even more anxious.

That is the old enemy Zhao Lie.

The temptation to annihilate this powerful enemy is too much.

Too big.

Dege Leyue Tuo Azige also frowned, racking his brains to think of a solution.

After all, they heard that the sea ice in Lushun Bay was not thick except for some special years.

It might be thawed when, no.

Like other places, it takes three or four months for sea ice to thaw once it freezes.

Therefore, they had to act as soon as possible to eliminate Zhao Lie, a powerful enemy, before the ice melted.

Huang Taiji was also thinking hard at this time.

He was the one who was most concerned about killing Zhao Lie.

After all, Huang Taiji took it as his own duty to conquer the Central Plains.

If he did not bring Da Jin into the Central Plains, he would not be able to become a great leader.

Kublai Khan That's his example.

The vastness and wealth of the Ming Dynasty had a fatal attraction for the Jurchens who had always lived in a cold corner.

Of course, if you want to conquer an empire, you must first defeat the army that destroyed it.

The nine-sided elite of the Ming Dynasty, Huang Taiji, had almost encountered them.

For these As for the combat power of the Ming army, his evaluation was just that, that is, Liao Town was better, but Liao Town also suffered defeats against the Jin army, and now it has become a city defender.

But this Zhao Lie had several battles with Da Jin, and never lost against the Jin Kingdom.

In Huang Taiji's view, as long as the Ming Dynasty, the last strong army, was defeated, the Ming Army would lose its backbone when facing the Jin Army.

If Jin is rubbed as much as he wants, Daming will become a pile of dead meat.

Therefore, the idea of ​​​​taking advantage of this opportunity to kill Zhao Lie was so strong that it made his usually calm mind a little confused, and he had no clue for a while.

"King Khan.

Our army can dig tunnels, place gunpowder under Lushun City, and blow up the city walls, so that we can break into the city."

Abatai, who has always been reluctant to talk, suggested.

"This is more than four miles away from the south city of Lushun.

It's too far."

The youngest Duduo was also the most impatient, and he was the first to question this stupid method.

"It's not that far.

There are more than ten thousand Han troops here.

They are the best at this."

Abate said with a smile, but he had been thinking about it for a long time.

Only then did he give advice to King Khan.

Azige and Yue Tuo also laughed and echoed, showing their disdain for Nikan.

Nikan was a coward and was best at digging earth to defend the city.

"Abatai's method is good, let's follow this method, but how much gunpowder is there?"

King Khan Huang Taiji also voted in favor.

Of course, since gunpowder is the foundation for breaking the city, it will not help if it is missing.

"There are only three thousand kilograms of gunpowder here, I'm afraid it's not enough."

Degelei replied dryly.

Generally, such an siege would require six to seven thousand kilograms of gunpowder, which would be exploded in at least two parts to destroy this section of the city wall.

In order to allow the following troops to rush into the city, this amount of gunpowder is not enough.

"Derge, please immediately send people to Jinzhou and other places to collect gunpowder and other materials."

Huang Taiji ordered.

Dege took the order, and Huang Taiji arranged for manpower to check the terrain and where to dig.

Of course, the most troublesome part here is the section of the moat.

After all, it is the most difficult area.

It must be dug under the moat, which is the most manpower-consuming.

Of course, now The big golden shotgun is replaced with a cannon.

There are a lot of coolies working for them, and that's what Han Junqi does.

The impatient Belles sent out more than 10,000 Han soldiers in the afternoon and began to work on the frozen land.

Some people began to dig out the frozen land.

This location was chosen behind two small mounds, which blocked the defenders' view.

Although there were so many people busy, it was impossible not to alert the defenders, but if they couldn't see it, they could only rely on guessing.

Thousands of people also came to nearby forest land to start harvesting logs.

The tunnels must be supported by logs and planks.

Otherwise, it will definitely collapse.

Such a long distance requires a lot of logs.

Fortunately, there is not much woodland near Lushun.

The Han Army Flag was just cut down in the past.

Thousands of armored soldiers with red flags and blue flags were on guard more than two miles away from the city to prevent the Polu army from leaping over the wall to attack the Han army flag.

Of course, three thousand armored soldiers with two yellow flags stayed in the camp to defend Dajin's master.

Grandpa Tai Chi.

Of course the people in the city could clearly see such a large battle to build slaves.

Wei Mingtao looked at it for a long time and felt inexplicable, so he had to report back to Zhao Lie and Zhang Pan.

Zhao Lie is now usually stationed at the South Gate of the South City of Lushun.

After all, it is the closest to the fleet.

However, the drastic change in the weather caused the fleet to withdraw from Lushun Bay where the sea current is not very smooth.

After all, the sea water here is not very flowing and it is easiest to freeze.

In this way, the frozen Lushun Bay immediately turned the southern city of Lushun into an isolated island, which made Zhao Lie laugh.

As long as he arrived in Lushun, there must be an emergency situation.

Last time, he encountered Mang Gurtai's attack on Lushun.

This time, it was Mang Gurtai's brother Dege who came to attack with his troops.

The fleet could not provide protection yet, so they could only withdraw from the bay, leaving the Polu army to trap the isolated city of Lushun.

Whether Jiannu takes advantage of the situation to attack is not a problem.

If Lushun becomes an isolated city and Jiannu does not come to attack, then is there a better chance?

Huang Taiji and others are not so stupid.

After receiving the report, Zhao Lie came to the north city head surrounded by guards.

At this time, Zhang Pan, who was not far from the north city, had already arrived first and was observing the formation carefully.

After Zhao Lie greeted Zhang Pan, he watched Jiannu's actions carefully with a telescope.

After watching for a while, Zhao Lie was sure that Jiannu was going to dig tunnels to blow up the city.

Thinking about it, Jiannu had no other tricks, only this.

One move.

"Master Zhao, this method of building slaves is very vicious.

They may have dug four or five tunnels, two or three of which are real, and then use gunpowder to blow up the city, and armored soldiers will rush in."

Zhang Pan, a veteran, also saw the plan to build a slave.

"In the past, building slaves couldn't do this.

After all, it would be better to kill the Jurchen masters than to let them dig the soil.

Now there are too many slaves."

Zhang Pan sarcastically felt helpless.

He also knew that many Ming people who could not survive crossed the sea and threw themselves into the slave territory.

However, how to deal with this matter was the responsibility of the emperor and the elder.

As a military general, he could only watch and worry. , but they were incompetent and reported the matter, but the court only strictly ordered to strengthen the sea ban and went through the motions.

In fact, people can be sent to Liaodong.

There are merchants here who organize smuggling on sea ships in the middle.

Many border troops have been bribed.

This is already a fixed chain of interests, how can it be easily cut off.

What's more, when you get to Liaodong, you have land.

Whether you rent it or own it, it is better than being a refugee.

Therefore, the attraction to Ming people who regard acres of land as their lifeblood is too great, how can they be easily cut off.

If the Ming Dynasty wanted to completely cut off this channel, it would have to allow the refugees to have land and not be displaced.

Is it just possible?

If it could really be done, would there still be so many civil unrest?

"Haha, Jiannu wants to fight in the tunnels.

This is good.

Jiannu will rule the roost right away.

Now that I, Lushun, have forced him to run underground as a local rat, it's really ridiculous."

Zhao Lie found out about Jiannu's plan and couldn't help but laugh.

"Sir, do you have a way to solve the problem?

It's hard to deal with Jiannu attacking the city like this."

Zhang Pan was a little worried.

"This is easy to say, easy to say."

Zhao Lie said with a smile.

Later generations have talked a lot about tunnel warfare.

Anyone who is Chinese can tell you one, two, three, including flooding, blasting, poison gas, and excavation.

Flooding is a no-brainer.

Lushun, which digs wells to draw water, really doesn't have that much water.

As for poison gas, come on, Zhao Lie is not a science student who travels through time, and he also carries cheating devices such as computers and mobile phones with him.

It really can't be done.

But the method of blasting is simple and crude, and it is completely sufficient.

Without the cannon, Fang Ximen, Fang Dongmen, Lu You and others had to become cannon fodder along with other Han flag soldiers.

Together with three thousand Han troops, they were laboriously digging into the frozen soil.

The frozen soil here was not too deep, just over a foot deep, but it was extremely difficult to dig even this foot deep.

Fang Dongmen and Lu You panted and came to the back to sit down.

They had just been replaced by the next wave of people and rested for a while before going up.

Fortunately, there were enough people and they could all have some time to rest.

"Huhu, my hands are numb from the shock," Lu You gasped.

He rubbed his numb hands vigorously.

"Just be satisfied.

It's just digging, not attacking the city.

Look at the people who died a few days ago and are still freezing under the city."

Fang Dongmen pointed in the direction.

Lu You shrank his neck, "Tsk, Fang Tou, I'm just talking.

If it weren't for you Fang Tou and your brothers, Lu You might have been lying there."

"Oh, it's all thanks to Ximen.

I don't have the ability.

Oh, the tiger's mouth is numb.

The ground here is so hard.

It takes too much trouble to knock it."

Fang Dongmen also rubbed his teeth with a grin on his face. holding hands.

Lu You grinned, said nothing, and continued to move his fingers and wrists.

After a while, Fang Ximen also brought people down to rest.

The nearly a thousand people under his charge finished their work and came down to rest.

"Fang Tou, drink some water."

Lu Youyou stepped forward and handed over the water bag.

Fang Ximen hurriedly took a few sips of water.

Although the water was cold, it was very thirsty for him at this moment.

Although he didn't do any work himself, after drinking for a long time, his throat was really thirsty.

The cold water was actually Just in time to moisturize the smoking throat, it feels a lot better.

"Ximen, where do you have to dig?

It doesn't matter whether the work is tiring or not, but digging underground is scary."

Fang Dongmen said, hiding his head.

"Hmph, where to go, there to go," Fang Ximen pointed at Lushun Nancheng.

Fang Dongmen took a breath of air, it was so far away, how much more punishment would he have to suffer
