I, the Ming Dynasty, can still save me

Chapter 285: Troops are sent to rescue (please subscribe)

He Shixian shook his head when he heard this. He felt that they thought too simply. He turned back to them and said:

"Haha, not to mention whether Yue Tuo can succeed this time because we have restrained him and informed him in advance. Even if he succeeds, do they really have the energy and the strength to plunder? I really think that we are just living for nothing, Mongolia Will Lin Dan Khan sit back and ignore it?”

After saying that, he left without looking back, leaving He Xiong and others looking at each other. Seeing this, everyone quickly followed He Shixian's footsteps.

He Shixian originally had this worry. He had previously written to Xiong Tingbi suggesting that he directly lead his troops into Inner Khalkha and jointly deal with Yue Tuo, but this decision was flatly rejected by Xiong Tingbi.

The reason is also very simple, that is, the risk is high and it is not worth it.

The five tribes of the Inner Khalkha have different minds and have their own evil intentions. For example, the Bayot tribe of the five tribes of the Inner Khalkha has long been on good terms with Jianlu, and the old slave has the title of "Kundulun Khan" ringing in the sky. It was their flattery who had been flirting with Nurha. They must be the lead party this time when Yue Tuo sends troops.

Two of them, Wengjirat and Zalut, have always been at odds with the Jianlu. Zasai Taiji, who was captured by the Jianlu before, was the leader of the Wengjirat. In order to win over him, the Ming Dynasty promised huge profits and allowed him to join the army. He was very close to Ming Dynasty.

Although he was captured now, his reputation was still there, and he was not very polite to Jianlu, but he did not dare to act rashly, for fear that the old slave would kill Zaisai in anger.

Among the five tribes of Inner Khalkha, the only one who really dared to fight against the Jianqi tribe was the Zalut tribe.

This tribe was located between Horqin and Jianlu. They often robbed Houjin's envoys and plundered property and livestock, which made Nurha deeply annoyed. This time Yue Tuo sent troops mainly to clean up the Zalut tribe and Wengjirat so that they could They are completely honest and humble.

Taken together, He Shixian personally led his troops to Nekarkha. He was not familiar with the place and could not defeat Yue Tuo, who had internal support. If he failed and the whole army was annihilated, it would really be more than worth the gain.

Therefore, Xiong Tingbi would never agree to rashly send troops to Inner Khalkha and destroy the situation that was finally maintained.

But not sending troops does not mean that we can't fight. This is why He Shixian sent troops to Puhesuo. He can take advantage of the Jianlu army to leave the country and attack its rear, and can also contain Yue Tuo from the side. Inner Khalkha will also remember this kindness. Why not do it.

If Zhu Youxiao knew about this plan, he would definitely understand it. Isn't this just "you fight yours and I'll fight mine", which means to surround Wei and save Zhao.

With the current strength of the Ming Dynasty, as long as they work step by step, kill one more person and seize one more city each time, over time, even if Jianlu has any tactics to defy heaven and steal his family, it will be useless.
-
Now the conflict between Jianlu and Nekalkha, with the Ming Dynasty's report and He Shixian's dispatch of troops, things have become even more bizarre.

On the second day after Puhe was broken, Tielingwei, a hundred miles to the north, and Kaiyuan further north were considered the northernmost point of Liaodong rule in the Ming Dynasty.

In the 47th year of Wanli, after Lao Nu captured Kaiyuan, he led his army to attack Tieling without stopping. Due to the delay in the arrival of reinforcements and the open door of the spies in the city to meet the enemy, Tieling fell. Lao Nu looted and looted, and all the property in the city was burned.

From then on, Shenyang became the northernmost frontier of the Ming Dynasty, and Jianlu also completely mastered the road to contact Mongolia. They could directly communicate with Inner Khalkha, Horqin and other tribes without passing through the Ming Dynasty.

"Yue Tuan has just been away for two days, and the Ming army has already sent troops to Puhe. It seems that they knew the news in advance."

In the Tieling Acropolis, Du Du, the leader of the white flag banner, was shocked when he heard the letter from Pu He stating that the army was attacking. He immediately started pacing back and forth anxiously in the main hall.

"Did the Ming army attack the city when you left?"

The messenger who was kneeling below thought for a moment after hearing this, then he raised his hands and said:

"Reporting to Baylor, when I left, I only saw the smoke rising on the south bank of the Hun River. The Ming army had just assembled on the south bank of the Hun River, presumably preparing to attack the city. The counselor asked the slave to tell Baylor that he would fight to the end. I'm a pawn, please send troops to rescue Puhe quickly, don't let the Ming army succeed."

As soon as he said this, a ginseng leader with a white flag sitting in the hall immediately stood up and said:
"Gushan Ezhen, this time the Ming army was obviously well prepared. According to what the messenger said, when he left, the Ming army was already preparing to attack the city. It has been a day now, and there has been no news from Puhe. When it arrives, according to the slaves, it is very likely that it was captured by the Ming army, so it would be better to send troops to Yilu Station to have a look and prevent the Ming army from going north."

When the messenger heard this, he immediately waved his hand and started to knock Zhong Dudu fiercely.

"No, Lord Flag Master. Pu River is a natural barrier. Lord Xitai, you also know that. You are brave and adept at fighting, and your loyalty is commendable. It is easy to stop the Ming army for a day! As long as you arrive with the army, the siege of Pu River will be solved." , please also ask the flag owner, for the sake of your loyalty to the Khan, please send troops to support."

Du Du hesitated after hearing this. He was still inclined to send troops, otherwise it would be troublesome for his grandfather Nurhachi to pursue the case.It's just that Xiangbaiqi was already weak, and he suffered heavy losses in the last Hunhe battle, losing five Niulu.

You must know that the full battle with the white flag is only fifteen Niu Lu. This loss is not small, so he asked Nurhaci to assist Yue Tuo in attacking Inner Khalkha, just thinking about whether he could get some credit in it.

Now that Yue Tuo had just left, the Ming army followed him. He was also worried that his troops were not strong enough and what if he was ambushed.

But just when he was hesitating, there was a sudden noise outside the main hall. Everyone followed the sound and saw a messenger running in from outside the door, with a look of anxiety on his face.The messenger who just knelt down to ask for help was immediately shocked when he saw this man. Has everything changed in Puhe?

"Sir Flag Master, Puhe is in danger, please send troops to rescue quickly!" Upon hearing this, Du Du's face changed slightly and he asked quickly:

"What happened?"

"The Ming army used more than [-] artillery pieces from the last battle of Hunhe River. They didn't even cross the river. They just watched these artillery bombardments. Master Xitai hurriedly sent a small group to ask for help. When they left, there was already a place on the city wall. It has caved in. I am afraid it will be even more dangerous now. Please ask the flag owner to quickly send troops to rescue!"

Du Du was even more hesitant and worried when he heard this. At this time, the white flag-clad leader Martu whom he had taken immediately bowed his head and said:
"Gushan Ezhen, since there are all difficulties in Puhe, we should send troops quickly, but the situation in Puhe is unclear now. I suggest that we lead the troops to Yilu Station first. In this way, we can attack, retreat or defend, and then we can rescue Puhe according to the situation. .”

Martu's words instantly made everyone with white flags nod in agreement. The situation now is very clear.Puhe Station is probably hopeless, but now we have to send troops, so let's go to Yilu Station to see the situation first.

"This is very good, Martu, Jibu Kada."

"The slave is here."

The two leaders at the bottom stood up immediately after hearing this.

"Immediately gather people and horses, send out cavalry to explore the road first, and send troops to Yilu Station this afternoon."

"The slave obeys!"

The two couriers present looked anxious when they heard this, wondering how it would be possible to send out troops in time this afternoon, and how it would take two days to travel a hundred miles.However, they spoke softly. Now that Xiangbai Qi had decided to send troops, they could not say anything more and could only bow their heads and say yes.

But at this moment, Martu suddenly asked Dudu in a low voice.

"Excuse me, Gushan Ezhen, do you want to tell Yue Tuobeile about this news?"

Du Du immediately shook his head after hearing this. Yue Tuan had just set off. If he heard this news, the morale of the army would definitely be shaken. Besides, the army did not threaten the Tieling Guards, so we should wait and see before talking.

"There's no rush, let's take a look at the strength of the Ming army first."

Compared with Tieling, Fushun is only forty miles away from Puhesuo, so the messenger from Puhesuo arrived in Fushun as early as evening that day.

At this time, the person guarding Fushun was Daishan, the leader of Zhenghong Banner. Since Mang Gurtai was deposed last time, Daishan believed that he had no opponents, so he became more domineering and arrogant.Nurhaci became increasingly dissatisfied with him, but he had no reason, so he sent him to Fushun under the pretext of trying to deal with him secretly.

Daishan, who had been deposed once, could naturally guess what his ruthless father Khan meant. He also knew very well now that he had offended many people.

The way to survive in the future is to maintain power, gain military exploits and prestige. Only in this way, even if Father Khan is dissatisfied with him, he will not take action easily.

"You mean that the Ming army was gathering on the south bank. Did they attack the city when they left?"

"Reporting to Baile, I was not there when I left. I just saw that the Ming army had pulled down all the fortresses on the south bank."

When Daishan heard the words, he began to think deeply. The wrinkles on his forehead became the character "Chuan", and he was also considering whether to take a beating or not.

"Why is there just one messenger now? Isn't there any other news coming from Puhesuo?"

Seeing Daishan asking this question, his subordinate staff member immediately stood up and reported.

"Master, I have sent people to the direction of Puhe to get information. However, the Ming army has many cavalry identities. Once they see me and other cavalry, they will come forward and entangle them. They cannot get away at all. There is no news from there yet. I just heard it back. The rangers said that the cannon fire over there was like thunder, and it looked like it hadn’t been captured yet.”

After hearing the words, Daishan paced back and forth and thought about it. Because the Ming army deployed widely between Puhe and Fushun, the second wave of messengers from Xitai were intercepted by the Ming army. As a result, Daishan's news was blocked. Now he still thinks that Puhe Everything has not been captured and there is still time to rescue.

At the same time, he also thought about his own situation. After being sent to Fushun by Nurhachi, he obviously felt that his father Khan was becoming more and more dissatisfied with him, and he was probably looking for an opportunity to punish him!If you don't rescue him at this time, I'm afraid someone will take advantage of you, and you'll be in trouble then.

If Puhesuo can be saved this time, it will be a great achievement.Thinking of this, the thought of meritorious service and self-protection took over, so he made up his mind and immediately ordered:
"Since the Ming army raided Puhesuo, they must have come prepared. Puhesuo is only forty miles away from here. If they travel lightly and quickly for one day, it is enough. Therefore, as long as Xitai can hold out for one day, when the time comes, they will be attacked from both inside and outside." The army must retreat."
