Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Chapter 500 Han'er is not a slave (1)

Liaodong, Dongjiang Town.

"The situation in southern Liaoning is more complicated than I expected." Jin Xuan frowned, holding a few official letters in his hand, "This Li Zicheng is really not an ordinary person.

When I first arrived in southern Liaoning, in order to prevent the Ministry from being wiped out by Jianlu, we frequently dispatched fleets from Dongjiang Town to carry out more than a dozen cross-sea sabotage raids on the coastal areas of southern Liaoning.

Now the situation has reversed too quickly.

Xiuyan City was ordered to be conquered by the Ministry, which was definitely not a small sensation for Jianlu.

But in this way, our Dongjiang army was also mobilized by Li Zicheng. This is obviously a fight. I will send troops to harass southern Liaoning later. "

In the main hall, fell into silence.

Liu Xingzuo, Zuo Liangyu, Shen Shikui and other Dongjiang generals all had solemn expressions, secretly thinking about the current situation in their hearts.

"This Li Zicheng is really abominable. He dared to plot against our Dongjiang Army."

Liu Xingpei clenched his fists tightly, frowned and said, "At the beginning when he took the initiative to contact us and exchanged a large amount of gold and silver for weapons, thunder and other things, I felt something was wrong.

The elite old battalion under his command has no more than [-] people, and the remaining battalions are mostly mobs.

I didn't expect this guy to be so courageous, he didn't want to run around in Liaodong, so as not to be surrounded by the Jianlu Eight Banners and fight, but he also played a dark game and brought down Xiuyan City.

Isn't this clearly asking Jianlu to make dumplings and then eat them in one bite? "

"wrong!"

Liu Xingzuo flashed coldly, stretched out his hand and stood up and said, "No, this Li Zicheng is definitely not that short-sighted, and things are not that simple."

After speaking, Liu Xingzuo walked quickly towards the map. Seeing this, Jin Xuan, Zuo Liangyu, and Shen Shikui all got up one after another, and followed Liu Xingzuo.

"Liu Shuai also noticed something was wrong?"

Zuo Liangyu stepped forward, stretched out his hand and said, "The general now has serious suspicions that the reason why Li Zicheng did this is not only our Dongjiang army.

There are also soldiers and horses from various ministries of Jianlu.

What this guy wants to plan is not a change in the situation in one area, but a change in the entire situation in Liaodong. "

"Lieutenant Zuo, what you want to express is that Li Zicheng is planning a big game?"

Jin Xuan frowned and said: "With Xiuyan City as the origin, surrounding Liaoxi, Liaonan, Liaozuo and other places, have corresponding changes been carried out?
But why did Li Zicheng do this?
If the situation in Liaodong did not move as he thought, then Xiuyan City was a place of death, and he would die without a place to bury him. "

"But what if they all move?"

Liu Xingzuo pulled out his saber, pointed in the direction of southern Liaoning, and said: "As long as our Dongjiang army attacks Zhenjiang Fort and other places while Jianlu is besieging and suppressing Li Zicheng's troops, the Jianlu troops in southern Liaoning will be stretched.

For Huang Taiji, facing such a situation, there are nothing more than two possibilities, one is to dispatch reinforcements from the west of Liaoning, and the other is to dispatch reinforcements from the left of Liaoning.

But let's not overlook one point, the Jianlu Eight Banners led by Huang Taiji, the most able to fight under his command are actually the part of the real Tartar soldiers, but Jianlu's core troops are very few. "

"Yes."

Shen Shikui nodded and said: "Since His Majesty's personal conquest, repelled the main force of Jianlu who invaded the pass, and eliminated the eight thieves who secretly communicated with Jianlu.

Especially after the pan-Liaodong strategy was decided, it seemed that the momentum of the Jianlu Eight Banners was still strong, but the situation on Jianlu's side was not very good.

Combined with the military situation from the west of Liaoning, it seems that the Chahar, Neikalkha, Harqin and other grassland tribes have begun to invade the Horqin area.

The most important point is that my Dongjiang army is on behalf of Daming to go to North Korea, and we have reached some trade deals with the North Korean royal family..."

"Don't go so far."

Liu Xingzuo waved his hand and said, "It's impossible for Li Zicheng to know about these important military affairs, this guy is just playing a big gamble.

Keep it simple and clear.

Li Zicheng, when he traveled around southern Liaoning in the past, fully discovered a key point, the foundation of Jianlu's rule in Liao is not as serious as he thought.

The fundamental reason is that Jianlu and the real Tartars discriminated against and exploited the Han people in the Liao region. If a war can be passed, more Liao people will know that Jianlu is not as tough as imagined.

As long as he, Li Zicheng, can jump out of Jianlu's encirclement alive, and my troops from the Ming Dynasty follow along to participate in this gamble, then he, Li Zicheng, will leap into the dragon's gate! "

Jin Xuan frowned tightly, he understood the cause and effect.

This guy Li Zicheng clearly treats everyone as his pawns, and wants to completely break the situation in Liaodong through this situation of raising Gu.

Conquering Xiuyan City and gathering the besieged Jianlu army is the first step.

The Dongjiang Army participated in the battle and attacked on the periphery of the Jianlu army. This is the second step.

As long as these two steps can be achieved, the Jianlu must mobilize troops, and they must be from the west of Liao, because the left side of Liao is the core of Jianlu.

It is not easy to mobilize troops.

After all, if the tribes entrenched in the outer grassland knew that Jianlu was in decline, they would definitely reap some benefits.

So once the west of Liaoning mobilizes troops and horses, will the Liaodong frontier army sitting in front of Liao be jealous?

In this gamble, it can be said that there is uncertainty everywhere.

But once the situation progresses as he expected, the entire situation in Liaodong will be completely overturned from the previous situation.

"This Li Zicheng is really scary."

Jin Xuan frowned and said: "This is simply a gambler, and the fate of the Dongjiang Army cannot be plunged into..."

"Counselor Jin, we are afraid that we will participate in this gamble."

Liu Xingzuo's eyes were firm, he met Jin Xuan's gaze, and said: "Not to mention anything else, if we can take this opportunity to take back Zhenjiang Fort, it will not only intimidate the right guard of Dingliao, but also look east to the forts of Kuandian.

Although His Majesty's pan-Liaodong strategy has always emphasized that it is necessary to focus on attacking by boat, so as to achieve the deployment of military training.

But now because of Li Zicheng, the overall structure of Liaodong has undergone quantitative changes. Besides, our Dongjiang Army has [-] soldiers and horses, which can be regarded as initial rotation training and experience in war.

This is an opportunity.

If it is said that Zhenjiang Fort can be regained and the Jianlu attack can be repelled at the same time, and Li Zicheng can escape smoothly, then the situation in Liaodong will be a three-party confrontation. "

Zuo Liangyu followed closely and said, "That's right, the last general also meant to fight."

"Seconded!"

Shen Shikui nodded.

Although this was a big gamble, if he could win the gamble, it would benefit Daming too much. This is called Liu Xingzuo and the others, who knew that Li Zicheng planned the gamble, but they had no choice but to participate in this battle.

"How to fight the battle, you have the final say."

Jin Xuan was silent for a long time, then frowned and said, "However, the idea must be submitted to the imperial court as soon as possible, and besides that, the Liaoxi side must also pass it on."
