Chapter 920 Mu Xiu Yu Lin Feng Will Destroy It
On Rufeng Mountain in the northwest of Songshan Fort, within the large tent of the governor of Jiliao, Wu Sangui, the commander-in-chief of the Ningyuan Regiment, did not panic in the slightest when faced with Governor Hong Chengchou's questioning. Uncle's personal soldier, there is more than one person in the last general's battalion who is acquainted with him, it is already confirmed without a doubt."

Only then did Hong Chengchou feel relieved and nodded, he took another sip of tea without haste, and then said: "From this point of view, Jinzhou is really difficult to maintain, and we need to help as soon as possible."

He looked up at the generals in the tent, and said: "Let's discuss first, what is the preparation of each battalion, and when will they attack the slaves on the north bank."

"Minister, my Shenji Battalion is on standby at any time. As long as you give an order, I will definitely blow the little Tartars out of their way."

Chen Jiugao was the first to express his opinion with great carelessness. His Shenji Battalion only needed to fire across the river. Naturally, there was no pressure at all, but the other generals in the general army showed a little embarrassment.

Bai Guangen and Ma Ke are already guilty, so naturally they can't say anything more, so the two of them can only look at Tang Tong, hoping that he will express his opinion.

Tang Tong also lived up to expectations, he clasped his fists and said: "The governor, the troops and horses of Miyun Town, the last general, have now assembled. Although the camp has not been fully built and the defense line is not strong, the entire town's officers and troops are ready to move in. Drive for the governor."

Tang Tong’s military orders are different from those of the two of them. He is in charge of establishing a line of defense in the west of his daughter Hexi to protect the safety of the left wing of the Ming army in crossing the river. Dorgon’s Qing army was originally stationed on this side, but now most of them have withdrawn to Baimiaobao. Not much pressure.

Ma Ke and Bai Guangen looked at each other, and they both scolded the eighteen generations of Tang Tong's ancestors in their hearts. Just as they were kicking their hearts, Tang Tong said again: "However, when the general fears that our army is crossing the river, the slave The thieves are attacking in large numbers, and it is difficult for our Miyun town to resist, so please ask the governor to transfer the Shenji Battalion or the Dubiao Battalion artillery team to support our town, so that there will be no problem."

Hong Chengchou just nodded slightly when he heard the words, but he didn't express anything. He also knew that Tang Tong's words were indeed true, but how the army will be deployed in the end depends on the battle situation.

At this time, Wu Sangui also clasped his fists and said: "Hong Du, Sangui has already made full preparations, and all the Ningyuan soldiers are deployed on the north bank of the Naughty River. As long as Hong Du gives an order, they will kill across the river and reach the city of Jinzhou. Fight to the end with the slaves."

Seeing that the matter has come to this point, Bai Guangen knew that the later he expressed his opinion, the more passive he would be, so he hurriedly followed Wu Sangui's words and said: "The governor, the soldiers of Ji Town are also ready for everything, and we just wait for the governor's order."

In this way, among the soldiers and horses of the three towns who are in charge of the main attack, only Ma Ke, the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan, did not express his opinion. He first glanced at Wu Sangui, who was in the first place, and then at Bai Guangen beside him, cursing in his heart: "Damn it! No one can be trusted!"

But Ma Ke also knew that it would be impossible not to express his position at this moment, so he cupped his fists and said, "Minister, Shanhai Town is also ready, and we can enter Daughter's Bank at any time and launch an attack on the opposite side."

However, Ma Ke had no idea after all, and now after the previous battle of Shimen Mountain, his Shanhai Town has become the weakest part of the army to aid Liao.

At this time, he continued boldly: "Minister, although the soldiers of Shanhai Town have the heart to serve the country, after the previous defeat, they have not been replenished.

At the time of introduction, it is necessary for the governor to send reinforcements to assist in order to ensure the success of this battle. "

Hong Chengchou didn't make any statement when he heard the words, but just nodded slightly, but didn't say a word. Seeing this, Ma Ke had to retreat to his seat. He squinted at Bai Guangen beside him, but saw a smile on his face.

Seeing this, Ma Ke couldn't help but feel resentment in his heart. In fact, when he was defeated at the foot of Shimen Mountain, he reacted quickly and indeed gathered a lot of rout troops.

As a result, Ma Kebai worked hard for a while, and finally had a lot of fun, but made wedding dresses for others.

The following generals such as Cao Bianjiao and Wang Tingchen are of course meaningless, and the standard battalion of Governor Hong Chengchou, Fuchen Qiu Minyang, and Chadao Yao Gong are also well prepared.

Just at this time, Li Song, Hong Chengchou's staff member, lifted the curtain and came in. He walked around from behind the officials and came to Hong Chengchou's side to whisper a few words in his ear, and Hong Chengchou asked softly, "Are you sure?"

Li Song replied softly: "There is no doubt that this Zu Xing is not suspected of being a slave. The students talked with him, and the firewood in the city was cut off. It is indeed Zu Shuai who sent them to ask for help."

"That's good. When is the best day for Zu Shuai to come in?" Hong Chengchou continued to ask softly.

"Within three days, the sooner the better, otherwise the city may not be able to fight, and we will not be able to attack our army inside and outside."

Hong Chengchou raised his eyes to meet Li Song's four eyes, saw that he was nodding secretly to him, he understood in his heart, and turned his head to look around at the officials and generals under the tent.

In fact, when the generals saw Li Song go and come back, they whispered to Hong Chengchou in front of him, so they already guessed what the main idea was, and all of them kept silent, waiting for Hong Chengchou to speak.

"Cough cough."

Sure enough, Hong Chengchou, governor of Jiliao, coughed a few times, and then said loudly: "Chengchou was ordered to supervise Jiliao, but he couldn't get rid of the slave chaos, and even made angry thieves ravage the left of Liao. Jinzhou has been besieged for more than a year. A certain responsibility.

Fortunately, you have sent troops to aid Liao today. Jinzhou is right in front of you. "

He paused when he said this, and turned his head slightly to look at the eunuch Wang Chengen beside him, as if asking for his opinion, but Wang Chengen smiled all over his face and said softly: "It is not easy for our family to participate in matters related to the military strategy. It's better for the governors and the generals to discuss."

Only then did Hong Chengchou turn his head back, his complexion darkened, and he continued with a more serious tone: "The governor has made up his mind to attack immediately, cross the Nvnu River, and reach the city of Jinzhou, attack from inside and outside, and drive back the slaves in one fell swoop."

Wu Sangui was the first to stand up, clasped his fists and shouted: "I would like to be the governor's encouragement."

The rest of the officials and generals also stood up and shouted in unison: "I am willing to drive the governor to break the siege of Jinzhou."

Hong Chengchou nodded in satisfaction, and shouted: "The generals listen to the order. I am in charge of the Biao Battalion Artillery Team, stationed behind the Tang Zongbing formation in Miyun, watching the progress of the battle, and waiting for an opportunity to support Duhe or Tang Zongbing.

The soldiers of the two battalions of Dubiao and Fubiao were stationed behind Shanhai Town and Ji Town respectively to support their two river crossing operations. "

At this time, because Cao Bianjiao hadn't heard his name, he was about to ask questions, but he heard the governor Hong Chengchou say: "Cao Bianjiao and Wang Tingchen will not participate in the battle to attack the north bank of the daughter river. Only then did they cross the river and attack the city of Jinzhou."

He then told Cao Bianjiao and Wang Tingchen: "Whether you can break the siege in one fell swoop depends not only on whether you can capture the north bank, but also on whether you can enter the city of Jinzhou.

In the next day's battle, the two of you will take on the most important tasks in the field battle. Tomorrow, you will inspire the soldiers to fight bravely. "

Finally, Hong Chengchou ordered: "All the generals will return to their camps immediately, rectify their troops and horses, march into the river bank defense line tomorrow, and launch a general attack in the morning of the next day, kill the Nuu River, and break into the siege of Jinzhou!"

"Here."

After all the generals retreated, Hong Chengchou sent someone to keep Wu Sangui behind.

…………

In the inner tent, there are only Hong Chengchou, Qiu Minyang, and his staff Xie Sixin and Li Song, and Wu Sangui who just returned.

Hong Chengchou looked at Wu Sangui expectantly, and asked, "Uncle Chang, do you have a plan in mind to cross the river and attack the north bank in the future?"

Wu Sangui sighed lightly before replying: "Minister, the slave is brave and not afraid of death. Although he is better at riding and fighting in the field, his defensive ability should not be underestimated.

Although the last general's Ningyuan army is also very brave, compared with the slave bandits, it is still slightly inferior. In the future battle, in the last general's view, the artillery of the Shenji Battalion is extremely important.

I also ask the governor to urge Chen Zongbing of the Shenji Battalion to fire more intense artillery fire, but as long as our army can successfully cross the river, they will definitely be able to fight a line of defense to meet the follow-up army to cross the river. "

"it is good."

Hong Chengchou seemed to be very satisfied with Wu Sangui's performance, he said: "In the future, the governor will order Bai Guangen and Ma Ke to launch an offensive across the river first. Attack with all your strength, attract the slave soldiers, and relieve some pressure for you."

He went on to say: "Bai and Ma, it's the time to redeem themselves, think about it this time, they will definitely attack with all their strength, you only need to attack after the slaves are attracted.

Remember, you must go all out and work hard to cross the river. "

"The final general will definitely do his best, please rest assured the governor."

Hong Chengchou was deeply satisfied, and couldn't help saying something to encourage Wu Sangui: "Okay, after this battle, the governor will definitely recommend it to the imperial court and the emperor, and you have made the first contribution to crossing the river and breaking the brocade encirclement."

Wu Sangui hurriedly got up and saluted: "Sangui, thanks to the cultivation of the Governor and Fuchen, I will never forget this great kindness in this life, and I will repay it by serving bravely in front of the battle!"

Qiu Minyang smiled and said: "Well, although Benfu admires General Wu very much, if he talks about the kindness of supporting and cultivating him, he would be ashamed. You just need to remember the goodness of Governor Hong."

Wu Sangui did give Qiu Minyang a deep salute, saying: "Fuchen's wrong love for Sangui, Sangui will naturally remember it in his heart."

Seeing that Wu Sangui's answer was still as decent as before, Hong Chengchou felt in his heart that it was indeed a good choice to train him, but Zhang Cheng who broke out halfway almost covered Wu Sangui's brilliance.

However, fortunately, they were one east and one west, so they didn't disturb each other. After the siege was resolved, Zhang Cheng led the army back to the army, and Wu Sangui was the most shining person on the land of Liaodong.

He believed that with his own cultivation and support, coupled with Wu Sangui's own efforts, after three to five years, it might not be as good as that Xuanfu Zhang Cheng.

"Okay, uncle, you go back and rest first, and the whole army will move to camp tomorrow."

"Yes, Hong Du. Sangui resigns."

After Wu Sangui withdrew, Hong Chengchou asked Qiu Minyang: "Qiu Futai, tomorrow I will bother you and Yao Chaoyuan, and go to the two generals of Bai and Ma to supervise the battle."

Qiu Minyang smiled and said: "The responsibility is, Minyang dare not say tired. Just let the governor tell you."

He seemed to be a little worried, and continued to ask softly: "Minister, are you really planning to use Xuanda's troops for this battle?"

Hong Chengchou didn't answer him immediately, but turned his head to look at the night outside the window, and said after a while: "It's not because I don't use Zhang Cheng, but because I don't dare to use him anymore."

Under the gaze of Qiu Minyang, Hong Chengchou continued: "The ten generals who assisted Liaodong, plus the local generals in Liaodong, there are more than twenty people. Now when it comes to the contribution to aid Liao, Zhang Cheng is the most famous.

In this way, how can the rest of the generals be reconciled, if things go on like this, there will be dissatisfaction among the generals, and it will be difficult to cooperate with each other, so this governor has no choice but to do it. "

"Wood show in the forest will be destroyed by the wind!" Qiu Minyang said leisurely.

Hong Chengchou sighed softly, and continued: "Of course the governor has to think about everything, the key is how to make all the generals do their best and work together to get rid of the slaves and thieves together.

Now, the soldiers and horses of the Xuanfu under the leadership of Zhang Cheng can only serve as the backup for my army to aid the Liao Dynasty, which is not the key point, but I dare not use them again. If one of them is allowed to do all the work, then the generals who aided the Liao Dynasty will not be working in vain. How can one match make everyone happy! "

Qiu Minyang still seemed a little unwilling to give up, he said softly: "Minister, why don't we let Zhang Cheng attack Xiao Linghe at the same time?"

Before Hong Chengchou could say anything, Xie Sixin who was on the side spoke first: "The students and governors had also considered Qiu Fuchen's proposal before, but if Zhang Cheng is to attack from the direction of Huangtuling.

Once the river is successfully crossed, what should it do? "

He stepped forward to fill the teacup on the table in front of Qiu Minyang, and then continued: "At that time, shall we send troops to support, or concentrate on fighting against the Nuuhe side, and fight against the Xuanfu army?" Just watching from the sidelines?"

At this time, Li Song interrupted and continued to explain: "If troops are sent to support Zhang Cheng in order to expand the results of the battle in the direction of Xiaolinghe, there will inevitably be insufficient troops on the side of Nuerhe, and it is very likely that it will be difficult to succeed.

And if we don't send troops to reinforce the Xuanfu army, even if the Xiaolinghe side has a certain advantage, it will not be able to expand, and then the siege of Jinzhou will be broken, and the Xuanfu army will think that we did it deliberately so that they can do it. It was useless to think that Nuuhe would attract the attention of slaves. "

At this time, Xie Sixin continued: "Even if there is a breakthrough in the direction of the Xiaoling River, and we attack to the other side of the river, we can only continue to the north and attack the Xiaolinghe Fort. Only in this way can we further break the siege of Jinzhou.

And its battle line is too long, and it still needs to turn back and forth on the Xiaoling River, which is actually not easy. "

Li Song said again: "Naughty River is different here. As long as you cross the Naughty River, you will be two or three miles away from Jinzhou City. Once our army occupies the north bank, the army can cross the river in an endless stream. convenient.

Even if the siege of Jinzhou cannot be solved immediately, the soldiers in the city can feel at ease to some extent. When the soldiers of our army recharge their batteries and attack together from inside and outside, it will not be difficult to defeat the slaves and rebels in one go, and completely solve the siege of Jinzhou. "

Xie Sixin and Li Song, you have explained the power of this one by one, and Qiu Minyang is not a fool, how could he not understand the meaning of his words.

Immediately, he immediately said: "The two gentlemen are really great talents. You can tell how powerful they are in just a few words, which made me suddenly enlightened."

Xie and Li smiled and said nothing, then they avoided the sensitive topic of Zhang Cheng, and after further confirming the details of the next attack on Nuuhe, they dispersed separately.
