The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 152 Another showdown with Ding Yi

On November 11th, Ding Yi mobilized to drop 6 soldiers. There were more than 1000 people in the original Jinzhou City. In addition, Mao Yongyi sent thousands of Liao people, Chen sometimes sent 6000 soldiers, and Xu Fu played [-] Liao people. , a total of nearly [-] people, preparing to build a fort at the South Pass.

The south side of Nanguankou is the sea, and there are still eleven miles to the north to the sea.

Among them, two miles are rugged mountain gorge and valleys with uneven highlands, large forests, and it is impossible to walk at all, and another six miles are rivers dug out before.

In the remaining four miles, there are two main roads, several small roads, various ponds, slopes, etc.

Among the four miles, Ding Yi chose two places where the army could walk to build two bastions.

One is built under the mountain gorge near the sea in the north, connecting the gorge to the left. The perimeter of the fort is one mile, and it can garrison up to [-] troops and store grain for [-] shi.

The other fort is the restoration and expansion of the old fort at Nanguan Pass (this fort was destroyed by Houjin long ago and has been abandoned, and Ding Yi wants to rebuild it). This fort will be very useful after it is repaired, because basically the later Jin army attacked in history. Lushun must go this way, and the main roads are also here.

The rest of the places are built with six-meter-high walls, connecting them into one piece.

In this way, the entire southern pass to the northern seaside becomes a pass that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

According to Ding Yi's design, the fort was first built, and then the wall was built to form a single piece.

The distance between the two forts is about three miles, which is very close. When the forts are completed, the digging between the two forts will begin. Countless deep pits will be dug, and the excavated soil will be slightly covered on the walls to form walls.

When the rainy day came, the rain became rivers, and the place between the two forts was a moat. The Hou Jin soldiers didn't want to attack the fort, so they went over the wall, but they still couldn't get in.

First you will see the river, and on the other side is a wall.

Beyond the wall, there is another river, and on the other side is another wall.

Over the wall, or the river.

A line of defense consisting of five such walls and rivers.

Every time one passes, there will be countless casualties.

The Hou Jin army was forced to attack the bastion.

In the ten-mile-long defense line, forts are allocated every [-] meters in places that are easy to pass, but for now, the fort positions are reserved first, and walls and pits are mainly built.

Of course, this project is huge, and it would be considered good if Ding Yi can complete it within a year. The most urgent task is to build the fort at the South Pass before the end of the Houjin Entry Campaign.

Fortunately, other people were mobilized, and the construction in his own base would not be suspended.

Just when Ding Yi was about to build a large-scale construction project and build the fort wall, the ten sentinels in front rushed over from the direction of Jinzhou: "My lord, my lord, a large group of soldiers and horses from Houjin are chasing us."

"What?" All the generals at the scene were dumbfounded and couldn't believe it.

Ding Yi was also taken aback for a moment, did the Tartars learn how to return to the carbine?

It turned out that when the city was broken that day, Li Sutai fled in despair. When he escaped, he was still wondering how the city gate was opened?
He didn't know that Ding Yi sent a secret agent in in advance, and he thought that the Han army surrendered and opened it without authorization.

But of course he doesn't admit it right now, and insists that the Ming army blasted it away with cannons, and it's none of his business.

After fleeing to Fuzhou all the way, he saw the guard of Fuzhou, who was also Mu Lali from Zhengbai Banner.

Mu Lali is a Mongol, and his subordinate Yi Niulu is also a Mongol.

In the 43rd year of Wanli (1615), when the old slave built the Eight Banners, he compiled 76 Mongolian cattle records at the same time, and then broke them up and divided them into the Houjin Eight Banners.

Mu Lali's department was assigned to Zhengbai Banner at that time.

Knowing that Jinzhou was destroyed, and that Jinniulu's entire army was wiped out after Chidu, Mu Lali was also frightened out of his wits.

Li Suitai said that some of the Ming army was very strong, like the Sichuan army and the Zhejiang army back then. If we had few soldiers, we couldn't fight in the field.

I suggest going to Gaizhou for help immediately, and then we all go back to find the Ming army's bad luck and avenge the blood.

Mu Lali took it very seriously, and immediately told you to go, I will wait for you.

Li Sutai rushed to Gaizhou again.

It is a coincidence that Gaizhou defender is called Guburqi.

Who is this person?
On the same day, Zaba was at Xu Dabao Castle, and when he learned that Haqisuo's Niulu army was wiped out, he insisted on leading his army to attack again.

At that time, Niu Lu Ezhen, one of his subordinates, knelt down and pulled his horse rope, begging him not to attack again, but to preserve his strength.

Zaba slapped him across the face with the horsewhip so hard that his face was torn apart.

This person is Gu Burqi.

He was originally Zaba's confidant, and later became one of Zaba's five bullies.

Xu Dabao was defeated, Zaba narrowly escaped death, and was demoted as Dadan.

Mei Ba and Ha Qisuo were fine, but were fined.

Zaba asked his sister to blow the pillow wind to Daishan, wanting to come to Jinzhou, and continue to fight against Ding Yi.

Daishan didn't agree, because Jinzhou was guarded by Zhengbaiqi, so he was put in Gaizhou.

Moreover, Gaizhou is located in Guburqi, who can be regarded as Zaba's confidant.

Zaba still refused to accept it when he arrived in Gaizhou, so he took some time to go to Xu Dabao to have a look, but was wiped out by Ding Yi again, and fled back alone.

After he came back, he felt more and more terrible about Ding Yi. If this person is not eliminated, sooner or later he will be a big trouble for Da Jin's confidant.

But he lost his generals continuously. After returning this time, in order to protect him, Guburqi shifted the responsibility to the dead Zhe Lang, saying that he refused to obey the command and insisted on attacking the Ming army.

But Daishan was still furious, and withdrew Zaba's Dadan again. As for the Ming army Ding Yi's fear, Daishan didn't worry at all, and he had no time to reason, because he soon followed Huang Taiji into the pass.

Right now Zaba is just a white armored soldier, following behind Guburqi every day.

Both of them knew that Ding Yi was difficult to fight, and they were still thinking about how to kill Ding Yi every day.

The two were drinking in the room that day, when they suddenly said that Jinzhou defender Li Soltai had arrived.

Zaba raised his head, feeling a bad premonition in his heart: "Call him in quickly."

"Greetings to Zaba Ezhen, Guburqi Ezhen." Li Sutai knelt down when he entered.

Although Zaba was dismissed, he did not dare to neglect.

The elder sister is still there, as long as you blow the pillow, sooner or later the official will be reinstated.Otherwise, it would have been cut off long ago with the character of Daishan.

Keeping him from killing proves that he will still be reused in the future.

Zaba was very satisfied with his attitude, and quickly asked him what happened?Why did you come to Gaizhou from Jinzhou?

Li Sutai looked at the two of them, and suddenly burst into tears, talking about Jinzhou while crying.

As the two listened, their faces darkened.

When Zaba heard about Ding Yi's army formation, the firecrackers were so powerful that they beat Chidu people on their backs for three consecutive rounds, and he knew it was Ding Yi's men.

In the end Li Shuitai cried: "That Ming army is very strange. Only the South Camp has erected flags. They have no names and don't know who their subordinates are."

"They have a strict military appearance, rapid changes, and well-trained, especially the Sichuan Army and Zhejiang Army in Hunhe."

"And—and—they fought—" Li Sutai wanted to use an adjective, but couldn't think of it for a while.

"They fight wars, operate insidiously, and do whatever they can." Zaba said angrily.

"That's right, it's very shameless, and it's different from the general Ming army." Li Sutai nodded desperately.

"The dog is that shameless man, Ding Yi's subordinate." Zaba yelled angrily.

Now the three of them have met their acquaintances.

They were all defeated by Ding Yi, and they all learned Ding Yi's shameless style of play.

The three of them wanted to hug each other and cry, so they had to tell their hearts.

After listening carefully to the process of breaking the city, Zaba gritted his teeth and said, "Ding Yi is extremely shameless."

"I think it's fake that he bombarded your city gate. He must have forced your people to leave the city gate."

"Maybe there is already his secret work in the city, open the door from the inside."

"Otherwise, how could the door be broken down so quickly?"

His analysis really makes sense.

But Li Shuitai couldn't admit it right now, and cried: "I don't know how to be broken, but the opponent has Hongyi cannons, hitting the city gate, it will definitely be unstoppable."

In fact, Li Shuitai has now reflected on the fact that the Ming army did not bring a ladder to attack the city that day, so they must have entered through the gate. If he figured it out that day and sent a heavy gate to guard the gate, the Ming army would not be able to open it even if they had internal support.

Zaba sternly said: "The Golden State is lost now, we have to find a way, otherwise, when the masters come back, how will we explain it?"

After finishing speaking, he jumped up against the case: "Dang, gather all the soldiers and horses in Gaizhou and Fuzhou, and fight Ding Yi to the death."

He repeated again: "If this person is not eliminated, he will definitely be a big trouble for me in the future."

In the past, he only had a few hundred people under him, and we were defeated in Xu Dabao. Now you say there are 2000 people?

Is this worth it?Let him continue to develop, after a few years, this Liaodong, and our Daikin?

Li Sutai and Guburqi deeply agreed.

The three quickly reached a consensus.

Pick up the men and horses, and fight the Ming army again.

Ding Yi must not be allowed to develop.
