Be the emperor from the postman

Chapter 567 Preparations for Battle (Third Change)

After Na Muzhong finished expressing his emotions, he quickly received a report from his subordinates that there was an envoy from the Hammer Bandit.

In his early years, Pan Yu worked night and day on the grasslands, was proficient in Mongolian, and had been in the frontier camp of the Ming army. He Jinzhao naturally wanted to send him to contact these matters.

"My family's captain said that the heads of these Mongolians will be used to cooperate with the Ming army in Jizhen to attack Wandan Weizheng together."

"Take it."

Na Muzhong didn't have the slightest resistance to this matter.

Lin Danhan ordered people to slaughter the heads of the tribe, and they all chopped off and stood on sticks, waiting for the natural air-drying to become skeletons, which were of no use.

Whether it can gain a firm foothold on the Mongolian left wing is still unknown!
"Thank you."

Pan Yu smiled and cupped his hands, and then led someone to pick up those heads, and found a Lele cart to pretend to pull them away. They could all be exchanged for food.

Whether the officers and soldiers in Ji Town bought or embezzled the military rations was none of the business of the hammer bandits, as long as the rations were in place.

There is more than one carload of heads, let them choose, we buy and sell heads on credit, if the distance is not too far, the officers and soldiers in Datong Town and Yansui Town will definitely not counter the price.

This year Shanxi Town is drought, and next year it may also be drought. According to Shaanxi, it is like this, and it will not end in one or two years.

The meaning of the captain is that it is necessary to take advantage of the opportunity to build more food reserves.

Lin Danhan snorted coldly when he saw those Han people pretending to take his protesting head away.

Pan Yu looked at these heads. To be honest, Lin Danhan was also a Mongol, but he was much more ruthless than them in killing Mongols.

Many of the heads were women and children, and the entire tribe was wiped out.

Lin Danhan wants to establish his prestige on the territory of Subutai.

It's about standing up, or bullying the weaker tribes.

If he dared to take the initiative to attack with real swords and guns and kill Wu Liangha's other big boss, it would make people look up to him.

Just like this, there is no way to play awe-inspiring on the grassland.

Buergedu, where the animal husbandry stopped in Longhua, received a message from Wan Danweizheng of the Duoyan tribe.

Lin Danhan and the Ming army made a reasonable eastward expedition, and Subtai, one of the two leaders of Wuliangha, was captured alive. This shows that the west of the Luan River is within the attack range of Lin Danhan and the Ming army.

Bourgeois frowned, standing still and worrying.

Lin Danhan is not easy to deal with.

He was only afraid of the Eight Banners soldiers of Dajin, not those people, so he gave up the left wing of Mongolia and went to the right wing to beg for a living.

Moreover, both Huang Taiji and Burger revealed that they wanted to destroy Lin Danhan and unify the entire Mongolia.

Within the past two years, he believed that after the end of the Liaodong War, Lin Dan Khan would die.

But until now, Lin Danhan heard the news of Liaodong and took the lead in launching the attack.

Can Huang Taiji spare his troops to reinforce himself?
Obviously not possible in a short time.

It's not that he and Wan Danweizheng are at the forefront to deal with Chahar.

Bourgeois very much agrees with Wan Danweizheng's suggestion.

Taking advantage of Lin Dan Khan's showing off his power in the Chaohe area, defeat him with a sneak attack, so as to delay the time and use the Luanhe River to contain their offensive.

Time is what they need most.

Bourgeois can only hope that Huang Taiji can quickly end the Liaodong War.

"Pass down the order to gather all the soldiers and prepare to go to Chengde to defeat Lin Danhan."

Outside Dalinghe City.

Eight Banners soldiers besieged heavily.

Zu Dashou was ordered to restore the city of Dalinghe. It had only been 20 days before the city wall was repaired, but just halfway through the repair of the battlements, the Eight Banners soldiers suddenly approached the city and began to attack the city that night.

The Ming army was caught off guard and could only fight in a hurry.

Zu Dashou's face was very ugly, because Qiu Hejia, the governor of Liaodong, transferred a large number of officers, troops and food according to the order of the gang of officials in the court. If Sun Chengzong wanted to transfer them away and delay the restoration of Dalinghe City for the time being, Qiu Hejia would not agree.

All in all, it is to let the horse run without giving the grass to eat.

This time Huang Taiji suddenly attacked, and more than 3 people were trapped in the city, and the designated food was not enough. Qiu Hejia, who was in charge of the rear, directly left Zu Dashou and others here.

Huang Taiji deliberately wanted to break through the Ningjin line of defense, and what worried him most was that Daming would use this line of defense to set up castles step by step, advancing steadily and steadily to the east.

Although he robbed Daming once, his national strength increased a lot.

But Daming's size is too large, far from what Liaodong can match.

Daming lost a few times, and it was still possible to transfer a large number of food and soldiers from the pass to defend this line of defense, but the Jurchens could not.

He can't afford to lose!

Otherwise, Huang Taiji would not win over and suppress the Mongols, and let them become his help.

Although Sun Chengzong is old, his thinking is still steady and steady.

He stepped up efforts to repair and consolidate Jinzhou and other cities outside the pass, so Huang Taiji had to launch a war immediately in the face of this conspiracy.

Especially when he learned that Daming sent troops to build Dalinghe City, he couldn't sleep or eat.

As soon as the Mongolian tribes arrived in Shenyang, he divided his troops into two groups. One route led by Beledeglei, Yuetuo and Azige led [-] Eight Banners soldiers, and stationed in Yizhou between Dalinghe City and Jinzhou.

The whole road was led by Huang Taiji himself, from Baitu Factory to Guangning Avenue, and according to the agreement, they gathered under the city of Dalinghe six days later.

In view of the previous wars, Huang Taiji always failed to attack fortifications, and was defeated by the Ming army's defensive counterattack.

In addition, he boldly ran for thousands of miles, broke through the side wall of Ji Town and entered the capital of the Ming Dynasty to achieve the greatest victory, which made him clearly know that attacking fortifications is not the strong point of Dajin.

After Huang Taiji soldiers besieged Dalinghe City, they thought that if they attacked the city rashly, they might be injured, which would also affect their own morale and increase the morale of the defenders to resist to the end.

It's better to dig a trench and build a wall to besiege. If the defenders take the initiative to attack, then fight him and beat him back.

Daming's reinforcements came here, so I took the initiative to fight the reinforcements, ignoring the defenders in the city.

A typical siege strategy.

Faced with this situation, Sun Chengzong and others have no solution.

We can only send troops to rescue.

Otherwise, abandoning Zu Dashou and others will chill the hearts of the remaining Ming soldiers.

What's more, Zu Dashou had a very high status before the first year of Chongzhen. The whole family of Zu's family was entrusted with official positions, from the general soldier to the officers at all levels guarding Liaodong, and there were all kinds of in-laws.

Even if Zu Dashou didn't have to be careful to live in the military camp after he offended the emperor, the imperial court still had to consider what kind of impact it would have on Liaodong after he was questioned.

Especially since Zu Dashou gave up before surrendering, how can he command the soldiers under his command in the future and let them fight desperately with the Houjin Tartars!
Besides, some of the Guanning iron cavalry under Zu Dashou's command are also elite soldiers, how can they be easily abandoned?
If Qiu Hejia, governor of Liaodong, had not withdrawn a large amount of grain and grass, even without reinforcements, Zu Dashou would have been able to rely on grain to defend the city and would not have fallen into this passive state.

But at this moment, Zu Dashou was quite passive in the face of the siege of the Eight Banners soldiers, even more different than previous battles.

Because Huang Taiji ordered people to put out the independently cast red cannons and bombard Dalinghe City.

This battle was the first time that the Eight Banners soldiers took the initiative to attack the city with self-made artillery, which was very powerful!
