Borrow the day to change the day

When Zu Dashou, He Kegang and others heard this, they couldn't believe it at first, but after thinking about it, they felt it was reasonable.

Because the Mongols are most afraid of Daming's firearms, at the very beginning, there were shadows of the Mongols in the field scouting battle.But later, as soon as the Ming army fired, the Mongols would leave their master, the Jurchen Tanma, and flee wildly.I would rather risk fleeing back and be dealt with by military law than eat lead bullets.

Later, it is possible that the Jurchens felt that the Mongols were too cheating, so they simply stopped sending Mongols out as scouts.

The Mongols saw that the Jurchens, who were much more powerful than them, had nothing to do with the Ming army's firearms troops. As the Ming army became more and more active at night and brought them more and more pressure, they had no choice but to think otherwise. It is not difficult to understand.

"However, in the first battle of our army, we attacked Danguan Anshan Post Fort, and there were no Mongols as internal support." Zhong Jinwei already knew the distribution of the Horqin tribe, so he first said hello to the two former Guanning generals.

The reason why there are no Horqin people, or in other words, there are no Mongols in Anshan Yibao, is because of the situation in Anshan Yibao.

Anshan Yibao is adjacent to the Anshan River in the east, and is located in the middle of the two mountains of East and West Anshan. The east and west are only one mile away from the two mountains. The beginning of the Liaohe Plain.

Anshan Post Fort is an "isosceles trapezoidal" castle. The geographical location determines that the Post Fort cannot be too large, and its circumference is only "one mile and two hundred and four steps".

As the most important barrier to protect Liaoyang, the limited force naturally requires the best soldiers. Therefore, the Jianlu stationed in Anshan Post Fort are all elites of the Jurchen White Banner.

Zhong Jinwei looked at several generals, and said with a relaxed expression: "Anshan Post Fort is indeed a dangerous pass for the era of cold weapon warfare. And if Jianlu is also about the same strength as my Ming Dynasty, it can also be regarded as a dangerous pass. But , Judging from the current situation, for our army, it is not a dangerous situation at all."

After hearing this, Huang Degong asked proudly: "Master Hou, is it the Hongyi cannon from my Beijing camp?"

The reason why he said the Hongyi cannon in the Beijing camp was because the Hongyi cannon in the Jingying camp was a new type. The cannon made by the iron mold casting method was more powerful than the previous ones, but lighter in weight.

Zhong Jinwei nodded and said affirmatively: "This time we are going to capture the city of Jianlu, so Cheying carried twenty Hongyi cannons."

When Zu Dashou and He Kegang heard this, their mouths opened slightly, they were very surprised that there were as many as twenty schools.

But after thinking about it later, they also felt that it was reasonable.Although they didn't know why it became easier for the Jingshi Bingzhan Bureau to make cannons at once, they knew that it was not the same now.

If it were the same as before, it would be extremely difficult to take out twenty Hongyi cannons at once, even ten.

Now that's all right, twenty red barbarian cannons lined up, just looking at them can frighten the timid people in Jianlu.

In the face of twenty Hongyi cannons, Anshan Yibao is really not a dangerous pass, because Jianlu does not have Hongyi cannons.Otherwise, the anti-bombing artillery can still have a dangerous effect.

At this time, Hu Hao had already returned to the lobby, and handed in the order to Zhong Jinwei: "Master Hou, the messenger who sent the picture has been dispatched, and it will be delivered to the two Zhong Cheng in a few days."

Zhong Jinwei nodded, approvingly said: "Okay, I can rest assured that the special forces will handle the matter."

Hu Hao was very satisfied with being praised by Lord Hou, and immediately returned to his position and stood there.

Zu Dashou thought for a while, and he suggested to Zhong Jinwei: "Master Hou, at the end of the day, I will suggest to surprise the Jianlu of Anshan Post Fort. Suddenly soldiers approach the city, and then bombard them with Hongyi cannons, it will have a good effect."

No matter how powerful the enemy is, whether he is mentally prepared or not, it will have a great impact on morale.

Zhong Jinwei nodded and said in understanding: "I know, so the date of the expedition will be set in the afternoon three days later, to station at Niutougang, and to appear in front of Anshan Post Castle in the early morning."

"Master Hou, there is a beacon tower in front of Anshan Post Fort, which needs to be taken down first." He Kegang reminded immediately after hearing this.

As soon as his words fell, Zu Dashou went out to fight and said: "Master Hou, the beacon tower is heavily guarded, and it is extremely difficult to prevent the beacon fire from igniting. But the general's troops are extremely elite, and he is willing to try to fight for the army." Take down the Beacon Tower."

Since he has made up his mind to perform well in this battle, he will naturally not miss the achievement of this first battle.

But who knows that Zhong Jinwei didn't nod his head in agreement, but turned his gaze to Hu Hao.No matter from which point of view, for Zhong Jinwei, this kind of combat mission is none other than special forces.

Hu Hao stepped out of the line, confidently said: "Master Hou, my subordinates have investigated the Beacon Tower a while ago, and the Thunderbolt Brigade wants to take down that Beacon Tower, it's just a trivial matter."

"Very well, I will leave it to your Perak brigade to solve it." Zhong Jinwei nodded in agreement.

When Zu Dashou heard this, he felt unwilling, and the first merit was gone.He retreated to his position, looked at Hu Hao, and said so much in his heart, he was not afraid that Feng Da would flash his tongue.

After they discussed some troop mobilization matters, Zhong Jinwei went to rest first.The upcoming battle must be very exhausting, and I just came from Tianjin Wei, the journey is exhausting, and it is impossible not to rest.

In the afternoon of the next day, the Ming army at Niuzhuang Station appeared outside Haizhou City. The mighty team once again detonated the morale of Haizhou soldiers and civilians.

Although they didn't know what the purpose of this battle was, they knew that Jianlu was in trouble when they saw that Marquis Zhongxing had brought so many troops this time.

Haizhou City has already prepared a garrison for the army, and they can rest as soon as the Beijing camp arrives.The soldiers of the Ming army who received the order and were about to go to war were all nervous and excited, looking forward to the official start of the war; while those soldiers who were ordered to stay in Haizhou City were very annoyed, regretting why they could not participate in this battle and earn money for themselves. Point military merit.

On the afternoon of the third day, in the atmosphere of undiminished enthusiasm in Haizhou City, the army began to march.

The forwards who left the city could no longer see their shadows, but the rear army was still in the city.The Ming army on the top of the city looked at the comrades who were going out of the city in great strength, and could only bless them in their hearts.

An hour before dark, the vanguard's cavalry unit arrived at Niutougang.Ye Bushou, who was sent out immediately, found that on the beacon tower in front of him, Jianlu's flag had long disappeared, and only the members of the Perak Brigade were lying lazily in the beacon tower waiting for them to arrive.

After Zhong Jinwei received the report, he smiled naturally.However, Zu Dashou did not expect to take down the heavily guarded Beacon Tower. He was surprised that it was such an easy task for the Thunderbolt brigade.Thinking of the strength of the firearms unit of the new army, suddenly, he felt as if he was getting old and couldn't keep up with the times!

And Zhong Jinwei traveled around Niutougang, recalling the past when he blocked Jianlu, he couldn't help looking to the north, thinking in his heart: I'm coming, are you ready?
