Han ride

Chapter 278
"Phi Island!" Huang Taiji gritted his teeth and looked at a small island on the map. It was this small island that brought him countless troubles to the Kingdom of Jin. It was like this in Mao Wenlong's era before, and it's the same with Li Xin now. If it wasn't for the fact that Yuan Chonghuan, a scholar, has broken his arm. I am afraid that the current situation in Liaodong is another way of saying it.But now there is another Li Xin in Liaodong. Huang Taiji believes that even though Li Xin is now entrenched in Guihua City, he knows that Li Xin's thoughts are still in Liaodong, so he regained Pidao.

"Your Majesty, the matter of Phi Island can be discussed in the future. The question now is whether we should retreat or not?" Fan Wencheng asked softly after thinking about it.

"I'm not afraid of Li Xin for the time being. Although he sent troops to Pidao, it is very difficult for him to attack Shengjing. There are countless passes along the way, and it is almost impossible for Li Xin to approach the city with troops. At most, he would just harass me on the sidelines." That's all, it's just that our army is working hard on an expedition, so we just go back like this. Hey!" Huang Taiji was very annoyed.

Fan Wencheng and the other two also fell silent. After working hard on the expedition, they got nothing in the end, which inevitably dealt a blow to the morale of the army.More importantly, it hit Huang Taiji's newly established prestige.

"Then move the army and attack Jinzhou, or Lin Danhan, or simply enter the customs." Ning Wan and I pointed to the map and said: "Sweeping the grassland from the north of Dalinghe City, I believe that Lin Danhan will not think of it at this time." We're going to attack him, simply, and take the opportunity to teach him a lesson."

Huang Taiji looked in the direction of his finger, with a trace of hesitation on his face, Ning Wan, I am not wrong, attacking Lin Danhan at this time, taking advantage of his unstable military spirit, has a great possibility of success, but the same , the journey from Dalinghe City to Baicheng is too far away.The expedition of labor teachers may achieve great results, but it is a pity that it is difficult to explain to Dajin just like that.If Jinzhou is attacked, the damage will be heavy, and there will not even be any results.Huang Taiji immediately hesitated.Although Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan wanted to dissuade them, they also knew that this matter was of great importance, so they could only stand quietly and wait for Huang Taiji to make his own decision.

However, just when Huang Taiji was hesitating, the situation in Liaodong changed significantly. With the help of Ma Zhan, Li Xin basically went all the way unimpeded. By the time Zhujiatun in the northeast of Shengjing was conquered, the number of soldiers and horses had reached nearly 1.

The fall of Zhujiatun dealt a severe blow to Dai Shan and others who stayed behind in Shengjing. Concubine Zhuang also summoned all the princes and ministers to gather in the Phoenix Tower overnight. Time also stopped talking, quietly waiting for Concubine Zhuang and Daishan to give orders.

"This matter must be urgently reported to the emperor within six hundred miles, please return to the army quickly." Concubine Zhuang couldn't care less at this time.She can now be sure that the horse bandits under the city are Li Xin, because only Li Xin has the courage and courage to capture Zhujiatun and march to the city of Shengjing.She also understands the embarrassing position that Huang Taiji is in now, but unfortunately, there is no other way, Huang Taiji must return to Beijing, otherwise, the Great Jin Kingdom will be over.

"I'll do it right now, sir." Li Bolong's face turned blue, with beads of sweat on his forehead.This is a big deal, I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen when he stayed behind.

"Big Baylor, call the soldiers and horses in the city, whether they are Manchus, Hans, or Mongols, organize them into the army, distribute weapons, defend the city, or fight, you can't let the other side I can take advantage of the opportunity." Zhuang Concubine is worthy of being Zhuang Concubine, and she showed her amazing talent at this time.

"Call together the old and weak soldiers left behind in the city after following the first emperor and the emperor, distribute weapons to them, patrol the city, and beware of anyone taking the opportunity to make trouble."

"The food, grass and equipment in the city are the main objects of defense." Concubine Zhuang immediately issued orders one by one.Li Bolong hurriedly ordered someone to record it non-stop.It's just that the astonishment on the faces of Da Bei Le Dai Shan and others became more and more intense. I didn't expect Concubine Zhuang to be so capable and thoughtful.There were some things that no one present had thought of, but she thought of it.

But when he saw Concubine Zhuang's brows were still frowning, as if she hadn't thought of something, he asked tentatively: "Madam, the enemy is exhausted, do you think they can fight in the field?" .

"Yes, what Big Baylor said is right. Such a small thief dares to offend our Shengjing, and he deserves to be punished. Our army waits for work with ease, and the soldiers are brave, and the opponent is just a straggler. If we attack, we will surely win the battle .” A prince and minister said.But it attracted the support of others.

"No, although our army has elite soldiers and strong generals, the opponent is not simple. What's more, I suspect that the person who came is not someone else, but Li Xin. Are you ready for a field battle with such a person?" Zhuang The concubine shook her head and said, "This man is good at running an army, and what he brings this time may not necessarily be stragglers."

"Li Xin?" Everyone was shocked.

"Your Majesty, are you sure about this person?" A trace of panic flashed across Li Bolong's face.He was not afraid of Li Xin's prowess, nor was he afraid of Li Xin's army, but he was afraid of Li Xin's methods. To be precise, he was afraid of the methods Li Xin used against those who betrayed the Han people.

"Who else has such courage after getting rid of him." Concubine Zhuang's heart moved. This was the result of her hard thinking. She could see the situation Li Xin was facing. Li Xin passed by, and the imperial court would not allow Li Xin to lead troops through the territory. Li Xin was faced with a difficult problem.But under such circumstances, Li Xin did the opposite, and took the initiative to attack the old nest of the Dajin Kingdom, forcing Jiannu to withdraw his troops, and opened a road for Li Xin to pass.Such a person is not only ruthless to others, but also ruthless to himself.No wonder it has been so successful.

"The vast sea, how did he come and go? I heard that there are many old and weak around him, and where is he placed?" Dai Shan asked impatiently.

Concubine Zhuang smiled wryly. Most of the people in the past were confused by this, thinking that if Li Xin was going to leave, he would definitely take everyone with him, but unexpectedly, Li Xin found a place to settle these people down and went into battle easily.

"Dongjiang Town Pidao." Concubine Zhuang spat out five words, and the hall fell silent for a while.These few words were enough to shock everyone, and then everyone remembered that the entire Liaodong actually belonged to the Kingdom of Jin on the land, but belonged to the Ming Dynasty on the sea.

"Damn Huanglong." Everyone cursed Huanglong in their hearts.

"Phi Island hangs alone overseas, but it is like a sword hanging on the top of the head outside. It will be cut off at any time." Concubine Zhuang said lightly: "Li Xin took a fancy to this, so he occupied Pi Island. Phi Island landed and attacked our Shengjing Shenyang. It’s just that this man used his troops like a god. Although most of the generals and troops stationed in the hinterland of our Dajin were unknown figures, they were more than enough compared to those soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. Along the way, there are also dangerous passes such as Zhenjiang Fort and Lianshan Pass. Li Xin actually easily broke through these dangerous passes within half a month, which shows that this person is capable of using troops. Therefore, we must not underestimate this person, otherwise If not, it will be a great misfortune for our army.”

"Don't worry, ma'am, what is this place? It's Shengjing. The surrounding area is full of people. Although Li Xin is very powerful, he can't last long. Even if we have nearly [-] troops, we can't beat him, and the defense is still no problem." Yes, when he attacks us, there is definitely not much food and grass. We will consume him to death, and the emperor will definitely come back to rescue Shengjing, as long as we drag Li Xin under the city, we will win in the end." Li Bolong rolled his eyes, and finally Come up with an idea.

"En. That's fine." Concubine Zhuang thought for a while, and finally sighed: "I just feel sorry for the people outside the city, I'm afraid they will be killed by Li Xin." Concubine Zhuang also understands that Li Xin can kill from Zhenjiang Fort to Shengjing It was not discovered until close at hand. It was not that the Manchus were incompetent, but that Li was too confident and his methods were too spicy. The Han people along the way might still survive, but the Manchus might be killed by him, so Shengjing No news.Right now Li Xin can't get much food and grass, but as the commander-in-chief of the first army, it is very easy to get food and grass in the enemy's territory.More importantly, Li Xin had already killed the city, and Concubine Zhuang didn't have time to evacuate all the people, and came to Li Xin to fortify the wall and clear the country, so that Li Xin could not get half a grain of food.But now Li Xin will definitely get food from the Manchus in order to survive, and there are even more cruel ways to do so.Concubine Zhuang thought about the many classics of the Han family that she had read, and there were many classic battles among them. There were countless mysterious ones, and there were also countless vicious ones.It is recorded in the history books that the people who drove the enemy away attacked the city, and even dug people's tombs.

Thinking of this, Concubine Zhuang's complexion suddenly changed, she stood up abruptly, and said to Daishan, "Hurry up, Big Baylor, lead five thousand, ten thousand elites to Fuling. Hurry up. Hurry up." Concubine Zhuang rarely used orders The tone of voice and Daishan speech.

"What are you doing in Fuling?" Daishan asked curiously.Fuling is the mausoleum of the old Khan Nurhachi and Empress Yehenala of Xiaocigao. Because it is located in the eastern suburb of Shenyang, Shengjing, it is also called Dongling.Dai Shan didn't understand what Concubine Zhuang asked her to bring troops to Fuling?
"Not good, Big Baylor, hurry up and lead the troops to Fuling to guard the tomb of Old Khan." Li Bolong also thought of a possibility, his face was astonished, and he exclaimed in surprise.

"Ah! Li Xin is going to attack Fuling?" Dai Shan immediately thought of this possibility, stood up quickly, and rushed out.

"Hmm!" At this moment, a shrill horn sounded, and instantly resounded throughout the city.

"It's over." Concubine Zhuang suddenly fell down on the brocade couch without any image.Li Bolong even collapsed to the ground.They knew that Li Xin's army had finally arrived and was approaching the city.
