Hundreds of households in Liaodong, covering the light with one hand

Chapter 126 Battle of Luyangyi (1)

Luyang Post is an abandoned post station located in the middle of the Sanwei area of ​​Guangning City.

The official post was not big, with a mere ten miles around including the pastures and mountains behind it. When the site was selected to build the post, Yuan Yingtai, the then governor, once said: This site occupies seven inches of Guangning, and if it is occupied, all the guards will be able to support each other. There is Austrian aid.

This way we can get a glimpse of the strategic importance of this place.
  This place was originally a node for the transfer of official posts in Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty. After passing here, it was not far from Shanhaiguan. Post horses and merchants often passed by and settled here to rest. It was originally prosperous.

Nowadays, there is war in Liaodong, and the land in Hexi is occupied by Houjin. As time goes by, Luyang Post has also been abandoned.

But today, Luyangyi looks a little different.

Early in the morning, Eight Banners scouts dressed as Hou Jin patrolled the entire area of ​​three or four miles. Soon after, female family members and internal guards dressed in inner palace style came in and swept Luyang Post up and down, as if they were welcoming some big shot. generally.

At noon, under the protection of a long honor guard and a cavalry escort, Nurhaci's carriage stopped at Luyangyi.

In recent years, the old slave's health has been deteriorating day by day, especially the sudden death of Huang Taiji, which made this tycoon who had been fighting with iron horses and cold-blooded weapons for almost his whole life suddenly grow old and decline - losing a son in his later years is the most tragic thing. .

Especially the son who was originally intended to be raised as an heir.
  After sitting on the carriage for more than fifty miles, the Lord of Houjin became a little tired.

In the backyard of Luyang Post, Nurhachi was sitting peacefully in the hall, listening to the real-time battle situation in Ningyuan City ahead.

"There has been a gap in the east wall of Ningyuan City. Our soldiers have climbed into the city and fought bloody battles with the Ming army!"

"The Ming army strengthened its defense at the north gate. Five artillery pieces caused heavy casualties to Xianglan Banner. However, Yanguli and Heshuitu had already led their men to rush to the city wall. The cavalry and infantry cooperated, which already stretched the defending Ming army!"

"In addition, Erbeile Daishan has led his army to intercept the Ming army scouts from Shanhaiguan who want to detect and deliver news. In the Shanhaiguan area, no Ming army soldier dares to cross the border."

Muleqi, Fan Wencheng, Ming Antu and others stood aside, while Muteb, the commander-in-chief of the old slave guard battalion, half-knelt on the ground, reporting the situation to Nurhaci.

"Congratulations to the Great Khan. According to the current situation, Ningyuan City will be owned by Dajin in less than three days!" Fan Wencheng stepped forward and congratulated Nurhachi.

"It's just Ningyuan City," Nurhachi shook his head, slowly stood up from the chair, first looked at the veterans and ministers in the room, and then looked out of the hall, as if waiting for something: "Not enough!"

Fan Wencheng turned his eyes, and he naturally knew what Nurhachi was thinking. Just as he was about to speak, he heard hurried footsteps outside the hospital, and Tong Yangxing's voice had already arrived one step ahead.

"Report!!"

Hearing Tong Yangxing's voice, Nurhachi's expression changed and he looked out of the hall.

"Excuse me!" As soon as Tong Yangxing entered the hall, he knelt on the ground, his face full of pride that his plan had succeeded.

Nurhaci took two steps forward, and his face suddenly became nervous: "Wang Qi showed up??"

"More than three thousand people have been hiding in Qianmaling for more than a month. Now that the Great Khan has just left Guangning City, he can't wait to get out of the way." Tong Yangxing grinned: "It has been clearly investigated. Wang Qi personally led three thousand soldiers and horses towards Lu Yang. Yisha is coming!"

"Hahaha!!!" Nurhachi raised his head and laughed after hearing this. The hostility that had been lingering around him for more than a month seemed to have dissipated: "I used my body as bait, and Wang Qi fell into my trap so naturally. This is God's will. ! I am very lucky!"

Nurhachi had long expected that Wang Qi would make this move. It had been more than a month since the war between the Jin Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty. Wang Qi, as the commander-in-chief of Liaodong Army, had not shown up yet. This made Nurhaci uneasy and restless. He always woke up in his dreams with profuse sweating. , always feel like someone is trying to assassinate me in the dark
  Now Nurhachi made a desperate move and took advantage of the opportunity that the army was about to attack Ningyuan City. He left the city and went to the Ningyuan formation to lure Wang Qi into taking the bait!

Unexpectedly, it hit the target with one hit!
  "Immediately Xiaoyu, Heli, and Batusuo will attack from both sides. We must kill Wang Qi in Luyangyi!" Nurhachi furrowed his beard and said, "This is a tribute to my thousands of brave warriors!"

"twitter!!!"

Everyone in the hall bowed loudly. He Heli and Batuso had already led the elite cavalry of the Zhenghuang Banner Battalion to ambush ten miles east of Luyang Post. The raids on Luyang Post in the past few days were also to prevent anyone from leaking secrets.

As Nurha Chi Khan issued his order, a bloody storm was about to roll up in the small inn and expand.

Luyangyi is more than ten miles away.

Wang Qi was in front, wearing armor and riding a sharp horse, while Qin Erbao was behind with a group of black-armored cavalry.

"All the cavalry are in line. The only target of this battle is the slaves of the Jianzhou chiefs!" Wang Qi raised his sword high and looked back at his soldiers: "Beat him, and you and I will be prosperous for a century. Otherwise, I’ll bury the bones here together!”

"Death for Your Excellency!! Kill the slaves!" More than three thousand soldiers and horses were all armed with weapons. They were all soldiers who had crawled through the blood sea of ​​corpses more than ten times. They were already murderous and were only waiting for Wang Qi's order.

Wang Qi swayed his arms slightly.

A clatter made the flag roll.

"kill!"

Its momentum is as fast as thunder, and its shape is like a tiger descending from the mountain.

In an instant, the ground shook.

Wang Qi looked at Luyang Station in the distance.

This time, it was a decisive battle that decided the fate of Ming Dynasty and Hou Jin Dynasty.

There was no wave, no ruthlessness, and no murderous intent in his eyes, just extremely calm and fearless.

Traveling more than a thousand miles, detouring through Mongolia and Liaodong, they were deeply surrounded by the Hou Jin army. If they were not careful, the entire army would be wiped out. All the more than three thousand people could do was wait quietly for that moment to pass by. He waited for the critical moment to rush out from behind Hou Jin and behead the chief slave in one fell swoop!
  This matter, in Wang Qi's opinion, is the only way to break the situation.

Otherwise, the imperial court would not be able to provide support in a short period of time and would not allow Wang Qi to delay. Then, relying solely on the tens of thousands of people who stayed in Liaodong to defend the city desperately, the result would be that the city would be destroyed and people would die. In the end, the Ming border defense line would be withdrawn to Shanhaiguan. In the end, Jianzhou could only be allowed to develop in Liaodong.

At that time, there will be no change in the historical line. Wang Qi, who has no military merits, will have no way to fight with the group of high-sounding civil servants and scholars in the court. In the end, the court will be ruined, the country will fall, and Wang Qi, who comes alone, can only die alone. go.

Therefore, if you want to realize your ultimate ambition, you can only seek wealth and wealth in danger, you can only fight to the death, you can only make such a desperate move!
  More than 3,000 people rushed like thunder, and within a breath, they could clearly see the ceremonial carriages and horses parked outside Luyang Post, as well as the golden dragon flag representing the arrival of the Great Khan.
  kill! ! !

The cavalry team formed a group of five and spread out in all directions, trying to surround Luyang Post and set up a dragnet to prevent the chief slaves from escaping.

Qin Erbao took the lead, holding two swords and already fighting with the chief slave guards. As soon as they came into contact, it was a matter of life and death.

Wang Qi, along with his personal guards and generals, broke into Luyang Post.

"Sir! The old slave has left!!!"

As the guards reported back, Wang Qi led the crowd out on horseback. In the distance was the figure of Nurhaci leaving with his entourage.

At this time, more than ten miles east of Luyang Post, suddenly smoke and dust rose everywhere, and the earth trembled. The Zhenghuang Banner Eight Banners, which represented the peak combat power of Hou Jin Dynasty, suddenly rushed out and came towards a group of Ming troops. At the same time, to the west, More than ten miles away, there is another team of Houjin Eight Banners.

In an instant, the situation was reversed, and the Hou Jin army directly surrounded Wang Qi and others in the center of the battlefield.
