Lu Ming

Chapter 449 Big Baylor

Under the city of Qian'an County, the crossing people are taking a final rest, preparing to go southeast to meet the enemy.

This time, the Houjin troops under the unified command of Amin totaled 5000 people, half of which were people with the Xianglan Banner.

As the owner of the Xianglan Banner, A Min mobilized most of the cavalry of his banner to the east of the three corridors of Qian'an, Yongping, and Luanzhou for the convenience of command.As for the Santun camp in the middle of the corridor and Zunhua in the west, it was a mixture of banner soldiers left behind from various banners.

Amin, who is entrenched in the Yongping base camp, has historically received reports of attacks by the Ming army on various fronts. Erbeile, who has long lost the desire to fight, immediately notified everyone to retreat.

Even though he sent reinforcements to Luanzhou at that time, the reinforcements only withdrew after a hastily dealt with the city, and had no will to fight to the death.

At the same time, the Tartar soldiers in Zunhua, Santunying, Qian'an and other cities withdrew after receiving Amin's order.

After the cross-travelers took Qian'an for the first time today, it was equivalent to discounting a leg of the triangular stool on the east side of the corridor. From a strategic point of view, the situation has gradually begun to become clear.

First of all, because the Luanzhou reinforcements in the south were blown up by TNT, Qian Tieshan no longer planned to go to Luanzhou.

There are only [-] Tartars left in Luanzhou City. In the current situation where time is racing against time, it is not worth the large force to go there—the main general Namutai was killed, and the remnants of Luanzhou will definitely send someone to report to Amin urgently. Then Amin will order them to withdraw their troops. After all, these people will return to Yongping, and they will be cleaned up together in Yongping City.

Amin is the real big fish in the eyes of everyone.

As one of the Four Great Baylors of the Later Jin Dynasty, Amin's head far exceeded the value of a thousand ordinary heads in terms of publicity and boosting the morale of the Ming army.

In addition, the most important target of the more than 1000 elite Tatar soldiers with the inlaid blue flag around Amin who traveled through the crowd this time must be Yongping City, not others.

So when Qian Tieshan received the feedback from the two reinforcements, he immediately ordered 50 members from the Luanzhou direction to come back and join the main force.

Then he informed another group of people: Send reinforcements from the direction of Yongping to come, this side has already freed up hands, and they can attack head-on.

But things are unpredictable.

At noon that day, just as the crossing group led the army to set off, and was about to meet the 400 reinforcements led by General Badulli of the Xianglan Banner, this guy turned around and returned to Yongping with his men?

The reason is simple, Badulli encountered a rout.

The coats who ran from Qian'an were stopped by Baduli on the way, and then Baduli knew everything that happened in Qian'an.

Baduli, who historically led 400 reinforcements, went to Luanzhou to make a round of soy sauce and then left.In this plane, since Qian'an was the first to raise smoke, he was also sent out by Amin to see what happened.

As a result, after meeting those Bao Yi who were running wildly, and learned that Qian'an had changed hands, Badulli lost the motivation to continue marching.As for the first wave of talking and crossing the crowd. The decision is in Amin's hands, and Baduri is not qualified to take this kind of person to fight head-on, especially when the opponent seems to be very strong.

So Baduli took advantage of the trend and turned around.

Seeing that the Tartar army had just passed by and returned to Yongping, the aid team in charge of monitoring was dumbfounded, and quickly reported the situation to Qian Tieshan.

After Qian Tieshan knew about it, he could only shake his head helplessly.In broad daylight, he couldn't stop all the scattered soldiers. This kind of thing can only be said to be bad luck.

For the current plan, all problems can only be solved under Yongping City.Qian Tieshan then issued an order: the whole army speeds up.

In this way, the large troops from Qian'an accelerated all the way along the official road in the southeast direction to Yongping, and 50 soldiers from the rescue team returned to the team halfway.

In later generations, the establishment of Yongping Mansion has disappeared, and Lulong County, Hebei Province on the map is the government of Yongping Mansion.As mentioned above, the three cities distributed in a triangle are all about the same distance from each other, and the distance from Qian'an to Lulong County is also more than 40 miles.

40 miles is not far, especially for a horse running at full speed, it will not take an hour.

So when Houjinbeile Amin was interrogating the broken soldiers brought back by Baduli on the top of Fucheng, dust had already risen in the distance - a large group of cavalry approached.

The next moment, when Bao Yi, who was lying on the top of the wall, saw who was coming, he immediately knelt in front of Amin and shouted in horror, "Ah! Big Beile, it's this group of green-coated soldiers who came from the sea. That monster The bird gun that looks like it can fire continuously, and Da Niu Lu was smashed by the bird gun!"

The Four Great Baylors appointed by Nurhachi were higher than other ordinary Baylors, so subordinates usually refer to these four as Big Baylors.

Aixinjueluo Amin, 44 years old this year, is the second son of Shuerhaqi, the younger brother of Qing Taizu Nurhachi.

Amin, who participated in almost all the battles during the Nurhachi years, made outstanding military exploits, and was finally appointed by Nurhachi as one of the four major Baylors.

Wearing a soft armor, A Min with an ordinary face, except for a pair of sharp eyes, put his hands on the top of the wall at this time, turning a deaf ear to the screams of the coat, and silently observing the bold Ming army under his feet.

The number of Ming troops wearing green jackets was not many, five hundred, only one-third of the defenders in the city.

First glanced at the flags under the city, and then saw these green-coated soldiers dismounting one after another, and after changing to another spare horse, Amin on the top of the city nodded: "This group of Ming soldiers from the sea is the same as the usual ones. Ming dogs are different."

Calculated based on the time of the rout's report just now, almost immediately after the Battle of Qian'an ended, this group of people came straight to Yongping non-stop, unlike ordinary Ming soldiers who called for friends and dawdled.In the words of later generations, it means that the "subjective initiative" is very strong, and the desire to fight is high.

Big Baylor now believed 400% of Bao Yi's words: If the people in the city had no special means, it would be absolutely impossible for them to wipe out all the [-] inlaid blue flag elites in Qian'an City.

So, this group of weird Ming soldiers with one man and two horses, who seem to be incompatible with their peers, are either crazy, or they really have something to rely on-the firecrackers that can shoot even balls of medicine.

Amin, who was standing at the top of the city, turned his head and asked after completing the appraisal, "Who knows the origin of this General Cao?"

The answer was silence.

Although there are demoted officials and generals in Yongping City besides the Tatar soldiers on the top of the city, but as far as the deputy commander-in-chief of Fujian is under the jurisdiction, these northern officials are really unclear.There are two capitals and thirteen provinces in the Ming Dynasty, and the deputy commander-in-chief has at least a few baskets. Who can know so much?And no WeChat.

"Interesting." After Amin said something without thinking, his face suddenly sank, and he waved his hand: "You can go to the city later."

Several officials and generals from the Ming Dynasty in Yongping Mansion bowed their heads and saluted quickly after hearing the news, and went down the tower in silence.

Turning around and looking at the remaining members of the Eight Banners family in front of him, Amin removed the angry look he had shown on purpose just now: "The morale of the army has been lost, so I won't fight this general soldier Cao this time. Maybe he is very good at firecrackers." , but only 500 people, it is impossible to encircle the city.”

When Amin said this, he turned his head and looked at Baduli: "Qian'an's soldiers and horses are gone, so send people to Luancheng, Santunying, Zunhua and other places to pass on my general order, and let all the soldiers and horses leave the customs nearby , back to Shenyang."

"Whoo!"

Amin then ordered: "You all go to get ready. After half an hour, we will go out of the city to Lengkou Pass."

"Hey!" Standing in front of Amin, the Xianglan Banners and Jiala held their chests at the same time to accept the order.

"Moreover." Amin said this, his eyes became sharp: "The descendants in the city can't be taken away, and they should all be slaughtered. But right now, there is no time for that. Remember to prepare torches when you leave. At least give them a fire."

"Hey, Big Baylor Shengming!" A group of Tartar officers laughed badly at this moment.

The reason why Amin has no fighting spirit is as he said before: "The morale of the army has been lost."

Why did the morale of the Eight Banners soldiers who came and went lost?The answer is simple: grab your fill.

This time when he entered the customs, his eyes were green with hunger, and the uncle under the banner who had endured the bitter cold for many years suddenly found that everyone in his family had become a rich man.

In Fushuo's Jingyuan area of ​​the Ming Dynasty, there are not only many towns full of wealth, but also countless farms and gardens of princes, ministers, and relatives of the emperor.

During these few months in the Ming Dynasty, under the leadership of Huang Taiji, the newly-born Houjin Group robbed the powerful. Grease in the pocket.

Now, these trophies have been taken to Shenyang to share the spoils with the return of the army to the north.So these days, what Amin hears in Yongping City every day is the concern of these left-behind flag soldiers for their families-"How many coats, how much money, and how much cloth have been distributed."

From this moment on, Amin, who has been in charge of the army all year round, has already understood one thing: the sons and daughters are no longer able to fight, and their thoughts have already flown back to Shenyang.

This is also the reason why Amin ordered the withdrawal of troops as soon as he saw the enemy's situation today: he wanted to leave a long time ago, no matter whether it was the crossing people or other Ming troops who came to the city today, what he wanted was just an excuse.

Just as Big Baylor made arrangements and finished the order, there was an exclamation from above the city——two strange birds flew over from the bottom of the city, wobbled all the way up, and when they flew to the height of the city, they were still slightly in place After hovering for a few seconds, it finally stopped at a height of tens of meters above the city, turning into two small black dots.

"It's probably some kind of watchtower, a mechanism for spying on people. Don't panic, and go prepare your horses."

As expected of the post-Jinda Baylor who has experienced many battles, Amin immediately estimated the use of DJI.

After seeing the scene of the top of the city sent back by the drone on the screen, Qian Tieshan and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief: Hurry up and catch up, but the Tartar army didn't have time to run, and they were still in the city.

Judging from the posture of the stars and the moon, Comrade A Min should be among the golden nobles in the circle around the city head. Qian Tieshan has already marked the three most likely people. Cursor symbols were placed above the heads of the three people in the system.

The next step is to formulate a provisional battle plan.
