I'm a big dick

Chapter 231 The task force is on the move, the big raid begins

In the deep and long silence, occasionally the cry of a crow resounded.

Through the gaps in the trees, Mao Chenglu held up the binoculars to look at the field and the smoke rising from the fortress farther away.

Jian Nu was completely defenseless, that's for sure.Mao Chenglu was a little excited that his long-planned surprise attack on the enemy's rear was about to be realized.

Emotions affect the body, and the fatigue of eating and sleeping in the open and walking through the forest for days seems to have been relieved by more than half.Mao Chenglu put down the binoculars, and retreated to the depths of the dense forest with several Ming soldiers.

The Dongjiang Army was expanded to the Five Associations, with sufficient troops, Mao Wenlong also implemented the plan repeatedly mentioned by his adopted son Mao Chenglu.

Although the intention of flattery is obvious, both Gou Zhenhuai and Chen Jisheng also think that this plan is quite feasible.Donglu's troops are mainly in Liaodong and Liaonan, and the rear area is empty, which is a good opportunity to harass.

Therefore, Mao Chenglu carefully selected two thousand elites from the former Association to form a special task force, and secretly went north along the Yalu River with enough dry food.

Then he sneaked into the Changbai Mountains at night, crossed mountains and ridges, sneaked for several days, and arrived at his destination.

According to the maps and names of later generations, the place where the task force is now arriving is in the Baishan area, and the Shasong brand that is about to attack is also a small fortress.

Even more excited than Mao Chenglu was Liu San, who was from Liutun nearby.He also acted as a guide for this surprise attack.

I don't know if I can see the folks. They must be living miserable lives under Jiannu's knives and whips, right?
Liu Qi was emotionally overwhelmed, silently put on the hood and iron mask, filled the ammunition in the musket, and loaded the bayonet.

Mao Chenglu has already prepared the arrangement, the fierce lion will fight the rabbit, he will do his best to besiege from all sides, and he is not going to let go of an enemy.

"set off!"

Hearing the officer's order, Liu Qi acted immediately, walked in front of the team, and led his comrades out of the woods along the mountain road.

When the last twilight of the setting sun disappeared into the sky, several Ming troops walked across the open field and surrounded Shasong Pai.

And hundreds of miles away, Chen Jisheng led the Dongjiang Army Hou Xiezheng to the beach and headed for Donggou (later Donggang City).

Mao Wenlong, the commander-in-chief of the Dongjiang Army, personally commanded the Zhongxie, and led his troops to break into Liaodong from the mouth of the Dayang River by boat.

After landing, they went down to Yanshantun, Huangtufen, and Xiaodianzi. Although they had no great achievements, they relocated thousands of Liao people and continued to advance in depth.

Mao Chenglu went deep into the enemy's rear to harass, and other troops took active actions to respond. Coupled with the actions of the Lushun Ming Army, almost the entire Liaodong was in motion.

........................

Pre-emptive strikes, before the Jiannu attack in winter, disrupt their deployment, consume their supplies, or at least make it impossible to prepare calmly.

Dongjiang Town proposed that Dengfu Yuan Keli take the lead in contacting, Jinfu Bi Ziyan and Jinglue Xiong Tingbi responded positively, and an unexpected large-scale harassment kicked off.

Although according to the communication conditions at that time, it was impossible for the various Ming armies separated by hundreds of miles to be in step and very precise.

However, Liaozhen and Jinzhen still did their best to carry out corresponding military operations within a relatively short period of time.

The Juehua Island garrison mobilized [-] soldiers and horses, led by He Kegang, to break in from the Daliao River by boat, and landed to harass.

When the Daliaohe area fell into chaos, the Liao people who lived in the five townships of Hongcaotun and Liuqitun, sixty miles away from Niuzhuang to Niangniang Palace, took the opportunity to defect and cross the river west with rafts tied with straw.

Before defecting, the Liao people often trapped or poisoned Jiannu officers and soldiers.These things were all recorded in the documents of the Jurchens.

For example, the three Zhushen (Jurchens) sitting on the stage of Haha Na Niulu were deceived by the Liao people who made friends to their homes and killed them; the seven Zhushen stationed in a certain place were invited to drink medicine and wine at the Liao people's house, and they all died... …

Later Jin's brutal rule over the Han people in the vast area of ​​the Liaohe River finally aroused the resistance of the Liao people who could hardly survive.Fleeing is passive, but fighting is an active act of venting anger.

As Jinzhen's ships broke into Pulandian Bay, and troops landed and occupied Shihe and Sanshilibao, the Jiannu ruled area had already heard the police everywhere and fell into a complete passivity.

It is not clear where is the main attack and where is the feint.

The most important reason for Jiannu to fall into a passive position is the lag in intelligence, or even a considerable lack.

Entering and exiting Daming from Zhangjiakou or Datong, and then returning to Liaodong by detour, not only is it time-consuming and dangerous, but also the information obtained is extremely limited.After all, Shanxi businessmen don't know much about it.

Therefore, Jiannu can probably know the strength of Liaozhen and Dongjiang Army, but he lacks understanding of Dengzhen and Jinzhen, which are in the second line.

It has been almost a year since the establishment of the new army in the Ming Dynasty at the beginning of the year, and then gradually to the rectification of various military towns, and the change of the military system.

It can be said that this counter-offensive is an outbreak after the new army has accumulated for a long time.The most motivated are officers who graduated from martial arts and served in various military towns.

And Jin Fu Bi Ziyan, Deng Fu Yuan Keli, is also happy to see its success.

After spending so much money from the court, the emperor gave him what he wanted.It should also make the emperor happy, knowing that all these investments have been put to practical use, not in vain.

At the same time, it is also the common goal of the governor to the officer to test the training results of the new army under the command and increase the actual combat experience through combat training.

Moreover, Jiannu's shrinking strategy along the coast also made landing easier.

In short, the sudden burst of swarming attacks caused Jiannu confusion in cognition and judgment, and he didn't know where to invest heavy troops for a while.

If it was last year, or even at the beginning of the year, Jianu would not have been so embarrassed.

However, after experiencing the defeat of Lushun Fort, Manpu, Changcheng, Zhenjiang and other battles, Jiannu has become vigilant and has a new understanding of the improvement of the Ming army's combat power.

Therefore, Jianu did not dare to send thousands of troops casually, but arrogantly and confidently believed that he could defeat the incoming enemy.

Dabeile Daishan led Zhenghong, Xianghong and other generals, such as Yuetuo and Sahalian, to Gaizhou and Fuzhou for reinforcements, and attacked the Ming army going north from Lushunbao to Jinzhou;

Sanbeile Mang Gurtai and Babeile Huang Taiji led the Zhenglan and Zhengbai banners to face Mao Wenlong; Erbeile Amin led the Xianglan Banner to face Chen Jisheng; Dorobel Dudu led the Xiangbai Banner to Liaohe.

Although the old slave only had two banners left in his hands, he felt that it was enough.The Ming army in the west of Liao was far away, and they had to cross several rivers to attack and harass them, which was not a small difficulty.

The strength and combat power of the Ming army in Liaodong have improved, but in Liaodong, they still cannot take advantage.Especially field battles are where the old slave's confidence lies.

But Liaohe also had to take precautions. Whether Huduntu would take action, the old slave was not sure.

The analysis and judgment were correct, but the old slave did not realize that this was the beginning of the Ming army gaining an advantage, and even missed the task force led by Mao Chenglu.
