The Red House starts from Liaodong

Chapter 211 Make a move
There were 8000 defenders in Fuzhou, 2000 defenders in Yongning Jiancheng, 800 defenders in Wushiyizhai, 500 defenders in Deliying City, and 200 defenders in Luangu Pass.

The rest were scattered, a total of more than [-] people, stationed in the Mongolian Banner, more than [-] people in the Zhenglan Banner, and [-] Han soldiers.

Fuzhou guarded the gate of the barbarian elite, so heavy troops were stationed there.

There are 3000 defenders at Xiuyan in the Changbai Mountains, 2000 in total in the seven surrounding forts, and 5000 defenders in Fengcheng, with a total of more than [-] in the surrounding forts.

These two places are far away from the hinterland of the barbarians, in the Changbai Mountains.

With the two major cities as the core and the forts as the branches, it occupies the plain area in the Changbai Mountains.

Concentrate.

Hit Xiuyan first.

Because this city is the most threatening to the east bank, it can be used as a basis. If the barbarians send a large army, they can successfully cut the east bank into two sections.

"Liu Chengmin is responsible for guarding Fuzhou. If reinforcements are sent, he will stop the barbarian reinforcements in the guerrilla zone."

"Leader!"

Liu Chengmin said loudly.

Tang Qing'an looked at Wu Zhenmeng again.

"Wu Zhenmeng is keeping an eye on Fengcheng."

Wu Zhenmeng also got up and took orders loudly.

"Zhu Xiu is in charge of attacking Xiuyan. The original three battalions on the east bank, with a total of [-] soldiers, will take down the entire territory of Xiuyan within one month."

Among the three major guerrilla zones, the original ninth battalion had 7000 soldiers, but now it has expanded to nearly 10. Only Zhu Xiu's defense zone is the largest and most difficult, and also has the largest number of troops.

"Guaranteed to take down the entire territory of Xiuyan within one month."

Zhu Xiu said confidently.

Generals are like that.

I like to fight more with less, and I always make it so subtle, as if it's a big deal.

The barbarians used Xiuyan and Fengcheng as bait, and did not station much troops to lure the Jinzhou army, and the Zhenjiang army captured these two cities.

I originally thought that these two cities were far away from the east bank, not only would it cost the general's food and grass, but they could be easily taken back.

Unexpectedly, the general established a guerrilla zone.

Therefore, these two cities have become tasteless.

As for the absence of these two cities, the Jinzhou Army's Zhenjiang Army leaped across the Changbai Mountains to attack Shenliao. I guess the old slave would be so excited that he couldn't sleep.

Now that the guerrilla zone is strong, these two nails can be pulled out.

They can also get rid of these two cities, but keeping a few barbarian soldiers is a bit of a hindrance.

With 5000 soldiers fighting a city of [-] people, in the past, Zhu Xiu might not have enough confidence, let alone him now, even the battalion commander Peng Dahai is also full of confidence.

His defense area expanded the most, and among the three major battalions, Peng Dahai expanded the most, with 1 and 3000 people.

Before the autumn harvest.

With the [-] shi of grain and grass from North Korea, the [-] to [-] shi of grain obtained from the Lushun trade, plus the [-] shi of grain and grass that the imperial court finally brought.

A total of 27 shi of grain, plus dried salted fish and more than [-] shi of various types of dried meat, have these savings.

Nearly [-] soldiers and tens of thousands of mules and horses in the three major guerrilla zones finally started to move.

Because of the guerrilla zone in the Changbai Mountains, the city had long lost its eyes and ears, and it was not until the military fort ahead was besieged that the news spread out.

Because Tang Qing'an had information about the barbarians, he could see the actions of the barbarians clearly, but the barbarians knew nothing about Jinzhou Zhenjiang.

Fuzhou and Fengcheng received Xiuyan's request for help, but they dared not act rashly, and hurried to Shenyang to ask for advice.

The old slave was angry.

In the past few years, countless accumulations have been collected from the Liao people under the rule.

In the first half of this year, he let Huang Taiji marry the daughter of Baylor of the Horqin tribe, and then defeated the harassing Lindan Khan tribe, consolidating Liaodong Mongolia.

He also conquered the Warka, Huerha, Guercha and other tribes in the East China Sea, and obtained a large number of Jurchens.

Nuergansi, even the land in the extreme east, has already become his territory, which already occupies more than half of Liaozuo, and it is the richest land, plus the grassland outside the pass.

The territory under his rule is not much smaller than that of Da Zhou.

A small general of the Jinzhou Army won the small and narrow east coast, and dared to offend him many times.

This time he finally got angry.

I was still hesitating whether to wait another year or not.

Now he doesn't want to wait.

Huangtaiji hesitated to speak, but Daishan was ecstatic.

The rest were unwilling to meddle in the matter.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Da Khan is fond of Huang Taiji.

Especially since this year, Huang Taiji was first ordered to marry the daughter of Horqin Baylor, and then he was arranged to be in charge of the western front.

Khan's health is not good, and he is getting old again. After all, he has to think about his death.

All kinds of actions revealed the paving way for Huang Taiji.

at this time.

Tabai, Huang Taiji's sixth elder brother, who returned from his expedition to the east, said calmly.

"Is Father Khan going to fight Jinzhou Zhenjiang first?"

in the temple.

It's quiet now.

Huangtaiji glanced at Tabai gratefully, while Daishan was unhappy.

"Golden State is a strong enemy. If you destroy Jinzhou first, even if you just destroy Dong'an and Zhenjiang, it will hurt his vitality."

Daishan proposed again.

Since Daishan was assigned to the Eastern Front, he advocated attacking Jinzhou Zhenjiang first, and his intention is self-evident.

But after discussion, it was finally decided that Beizhen should be attacked first.

One is that Beizhen is easier, and the other is that the new army in Beizhen can be wiped out in advance to avoid future troubles.

Then concentrate on hitting the east bank, then Zhenjiang, and finally trapped Jinzhou to death.

As for hitting the east coast first.

Considering the guerrillas in the Changbai Mountains, and the difficulty in transporting materials in the mountains, it is really difficult, and it is not a temporary achievement.

It only takes two months to fight Beizhen, but it is estimated that it will take at least half a year or even a year to fight the east bank and Zhenjiang.

Whether it is the guerrillas who cleared the mountainous areas, or the siege of Jinzhou, they all need a huge accumulation of materials.

And after a long time, it might give Bei Zhen an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Although the new army in Beizhen was not looked down upon by everyone, there were still nearly [-] people in the end.

No one can guarantee that after a long period of time, whether the other party will find their own omissions and lead to failure.

It's just that the second elder brother Daishan has a high prestige, so it's not easy for everyone to come forward to oppose him.

Even Tabai, who had returned from a great victory, was unwilling to disobey his second brother and arouse his hostility.

Seeing this, Huang Taiji personally stepped forward to refute.

"If you fight General Tang, how long will it take to guarantee defeating him?"

Dai Shan was stunned when he heard the words.

With his father sweating, he dared not speak falsely.

Seeing that Daishan didn't speak, Huangtaiji looked at the old slave.

"If you attack Beizhen, I guarantee that you will get the whole territory of Beizhen in January!"

This is not a lie.

Both Baylor and the ministers in the palace thought there was nothing wrong, and even Daishan couldn't object.

Because if it were him, he could guarantee that he would win the whole of Beizhen in January.

My heart became even more unbalanced.

Father Khan is eccentric after all.

I followed my father Khan to fight in the north and south, and fought countless battles, but in the end he favored the eight sons, so why didn't he think about himself.

Daishan looked at the old slave aggrieved.

The old slave ignored Daishan's aggrieved gaze.

The second son is 42 years old, and the eighth son is 33 years old.

At the age of 42, he has to reach the age of knowing the destiny. If the country is handed over to him, how many years can he live?Longevity is okay, what if you don't live long.

This is what the old slave is worried about.

He has many sons, the second and eighth sons are the most talented. As for the eldest son, he is too old and too ambitious to wait for his own death.

So he executed the eldest son first.

With Tabai's interruption.

The old slave woke up from his anger.

In the past two years, he often fell into anger easily, as if the rationality of his youth was gradually dissipating, making him more vigilant.

Your body knows best.

"He hits his, I hit mine."

When he heard what his father said, Daishan was in despair.

I have fought with my father Khan for a lifetime, and I already know what my father Khan said next.

"Jinzhou General Tang is the best at adapting to the situation. I want to learn from him this time. He attacked my Xiuyan City. When he is unable to escape, I will attack Beizhen."

As he spoke, the old slave suddenly laughed.

"I was still hesitating whether it was this year or next year, when it was the best time, but he made the decision for me."

Jian Dahan returned to his original wise appearance.

The barbarian generals, Mongolian generals, and Han generals in the palace were all elated.

The barbarian country has a territory of thousands of miles and is strong and prosperous.

There are hundreds of thousands of barbarians, hundreds of thousands of Mongols, and millions of Han people.

Strength is like a snowball.

Although Da Zhou had a general of the Golden State, he used to be opportunistic and regained some places, but his foundation was shallow, so how could he resist Tianwei.

"This year we will take down Liaoxi, and next year we will go all out to fight the Jinzhou General Army. He has a big territory now. It depends on how many places he can defend."

"Khan Shengming!"

The crowd was convinced.

……

There was no movement from Fuzhouwei, nor was there any movement from Fengcheng. Zhu Xiubu successfully captured all the forts outside Xiuyan City, and was already approaching Xiuyan City.

smoothly.

It went so well.

Tang Qing'an was a little uneasy.

When Xie Youcheng ran in in a hurry, sweating all over his head, he knew that something bad had happened.

"The barbarians are going to attack Beizhen."

"Didn't it mean after the autumn harvest?"

Tang Qing'an was stunned.

It was based on Xie Youcheng's information that he dispatched troops ahead of time to pull out Xiuyan City in the Changbai Mountains, and then Fengcheng.

After waiting for these two cities, it was just in time for September.

Then with the supplies of the autumn harvest, if the barbarians attacked Beizhen this year, he would be able to use the Changbai Mountains as a barrier.

Then draw out half of the guerrillas, ordinary defenders, plus tens of thousands of North Korean troops, and gather a hundred thousand troops to aid Beizhen.

"After all, we have underestimated the old slave. Not only did he not intend to support the two cities, but he concentrated his forces and went to attack Beizhen while we were dispatching the army.

This is an urgent message from Mr. Chen in Shenyang, let us quickly think of a countermeasure. "

without hesitation.

"Immediately send someone to notify Shi Nai and Li Dazu to prepare their army for war."

Worried that the people they sent would not attract their attention, Tang Qing'an wrote a letter himself to inform them of the situation.

Xie Youcheng's face was full of sadness.

After the letter was written, a fast boat was sent to Jinzhou and Beizhen.

"How can this be good?"

Tang Qing'an was worried.

He was not worried about himself, but about Beizhen.

Now Jinzhou has thousands of Francophones, more than forty Hongyi cannons, and hundreds of other old-style artillery.

Relying on his own [-] elite soldiers, there is no problem in defending.

But there are no elite soldiers in Beizhen.

If Bei Zhen couldn't guard against him, he would be a little embarrassed.

Five years in Pingliao.

It's really dangerous.

Not to mention giving up some interests and tempting Hongyi to send mercenaries to help him fight the war, just like history helped Daming fight the war.

Hongyi not only has Hongyi cannons, but also field artillery, and more mature methods of making gunpowder.

Hongyi cannons are actually naval guns, which are fine for defending the city, but inconvenient for field battles. Hongyi's various field artillery are only used for field battles.

And the old slave really decided to play next year.

According to what he knew, the old slave was going to die next year.

This is the moment, irresistible.

If the old slave died.

Huangtaiji was in power, and he was too busy to consolidate his position.

This is Tang Qing'an's five-year Ping Liao confidence.

The barbarian infighting, this time is not the same as in history, there is a complete Liaodong for it to slowly quarrel.

He and Liaoxi, North Korea's 40 troops can destroy it.

But if Liaoxi is gone.

Those five years in Pingliao were not as smooth as I thought.

　It's only [-] votes short, it would be a pity if it didn't make it, please everyone.
