The heavens start from saving Daming

Chapter 55 Old Ba, Don't Get Angry
Li Yunze, who was fully in armor, was still feeling uneasy when he walked on the swaying pontoon bridge.

After all, if it fell into the river, the armored body armor would not be able to float.

But he wanted too much to annihilate the main force of the Tartars in a single battle, so he did not hesitate to risk himself and use himself as the biggest bait, dragging the Tartars so that they would not escape.

Huang Taiji is a far-sighted person, regardless of the gains and losses of a city or a place.

If he became ruthless and directly led his troops back north, or even retreated all the way into the deep mountains and old forests, then it would be Li Yunze's turn to be numb.

Daming still has many problems. It is impossible for him, Li Yunze, to fight against the Tartars all the time.

This is the same as being reluctant to let your daughter-in-law have nothing to do with that. You must have enough bait to hold the main force of the Tartars.

Behind Li Yunze was a big banner held by two strong men.

The cold wind blows in the early morning, and the big flag flutters in the wind.

The morale of the Ming army on the north bank was greatly boosted, and the soldiers of the Shenshu Camp fought back the Zhenglan Banner abruptly.

And the firecrackers standing on the bench also used rounds of intensive shooting, causing huge casualties to the Tartars.

By the time Li Yunze jumped off the pontoon bridge and stood on the north bank of the Daling River, the Targa's offensive had already collapsed.

The craftsmen of the auxiliary barracks occupied a pontoon bridge, quickly transported a large number of wooden boxes, and built a viewing platform dozens of steps away from the pontoon bridge.

Stepping up to the five-meter-high viewing platform, he signaled to the wrestler holding the banner, "Put it behind me."

At this time, Zhao Liaojiao and Lu Xiangsheng of the Shenshu Camp have already rushed to the "Long Live Wanjin Body."

"Don't say such things." Li Yunze looked at the two of them, "The Tartar army rushed over, can you hold it?"

The two looked at each other and nodded in unison, "Yes!"

"Leader Zhao." Li Yunze nodded, then turned to look at Cao Bianjiao standing behind him, "And you, all go to command the soldiers and horses to fight. Lu Xiangsheng stay behind."

Wang Chengen, who looked nervous, put Maza on the viewing platform with his arms in his arms.

Li Yunze turned his head and told him, "A few cases, warm up the pot of wine, and the dishes will be discarded. Bring two cans over here."

Wang Chengen, who responded quickly, turned around and ran down again.

Sitting down on the Maza, Li Yunze signaled to Lu Xiangsheng who was beside him, "After defeating the Tartars, how should we govern the Liao land?"

Hearing the sound of strings, he knew the elegant meaning, and when he asked such a question, Lu Xiangsheng immediately had a clear understanding.

After a little thought, he responded, "Long live, we should recruit the refugees back to the Liao land, distribute the fields to resume production, rebuild roads and canals, and restore commercial roads."

"These are not important." Li Yunze waved his hands impatiently, "How to deal with the remnants of the Tartars?"

After a moment of silence, Lu Xiangsheng responded, "Suppress."

"En." Li Yunze, who was sitting on the saddle, made some adjustments and nodded slightly, "After the Tartars are pacified, I will divide the Liao region into several provinces, and you will be the governor of the Liao region, and you will also be in charge of military and civilian affairs."

Lu Xiangsheng was startled, and subconsciously looked at Sun Chengzong who was preparing to watch the battle below, "Long live, everything in Liao has always been left by Sun Ge."

"He begged for bones."

Huang Taiji smiled gently and signaled to Mang Gurtai who had returned from defeat, "Brother Six has worked hard, and heals his wounds. Later, Brother Six will fight for Dajin."

When Mangurtai went to heal his wounds, Huang Taiji looked around at the princes and ministers, "Everyone, what are your excuses?"

"Let me tell you." Abatai was the first to jump out, "Ming Gou got angry this time, why not retreat for now. Lengthen their supply line, cut off the food road and fight again."

At this time, Hou Jin was still a bandit group.

The core of their strategy is still the gangster thinking of bullying the weak and fearing the hard.

The Ming army we are facing today is so powerful, if you can't get it down, don't do it, run away first and then look for opportunities.

Hearing Abatai's proposal, many people nodded in approval.

"Old Seven." Huang Taiji sneered again and again, "Now in this situation, how can we just retreat if we say so!"

He raised his whip and pointed at the camp, "Do you want the military supplies and food in the barracks? Do you want the slaves who are working? If we retreat now, believe it or not, those Mongols will run away immediately and never come back again!"

"Old Ba." Seeing Huang Taiji going mad, Dai Shan persuaded him with good words, "We all know what you said, but the Ming army in front of us is difficult to fight. I guess it is even harder to fight than those on the bank of the Hun River back then."

"Second brother!" Huang Taiji interrupted Dai Shan, "Without military supplies and food, we have to go back to Shenyang City on a wild road for hundreds of miles from here? It's freezing cold now, and there are no tents. Firewood can freeze half of the people to death in one night!"

He took a deep breath, raised his whip and pointed to the opposite side, "Tell me, none of the cavalry from the Ming army showed up. Where did they go?"

They all fought old battles. Naturally, they knew that the cavalry of the Ming army did not show up at this time, so they must have taken a detour to the back.

"The cavalry of the Ming army harassed us all the way. When we return to Shenyang City, how many people and horses will we have left? When the Ming army surrounds us, where else can we go? Return to the old city of Hetuala?"

During the hundreds of miles of field journey from Daling River to Shenyang City, there were no supplies and a large number of Ming troops harassed them. The losses along the way must have been extremely heavy.

"The emperor of the Ming Dynasty on the opposite side." Huang Taiji squinted his eyes and looked at the big banner fluttering in the wind in the distance. , very good."

This surprise attack by Li Yunze really hit the Tartarist hard in the waist and eyes.Even if they want to run away, they don't have time to pack up the military supplies.

They don't have time to go to the camp to gather slaves, food, grass and military resources. Without these, they want to cross hundreds of miles of wild land, and it makes people's scalp numb just thinking about it.

"We came here this time and brought all the food and grass we can use." Huang Taiji talked about another terrible thing. "If we lose this batch of military supplies and food and grass, we won't even be able to survive the next year when we don't get it."

At this time, Abatai complained a few words, "Then go grab it."

Huang Taiji, who had already been plotted by Li Yunze, was furious when he heard the words, and whipped him immediately.

"Do you think these Ming soldiers are dead? They pushed all the way to the city of Shenyang, where are we going to snatch them?"

Abate, who had a bloodstain on his face, hurriedly got off his horse and saluted, "Khan calm down, it's my slave's fault."

Abatai's family background was not high, he was regarded as the son of Qiesheng, and his status among the brothers had always been very low.

Not to mention the Big Four Baylor, even a young man like Dorgon Duoduo has a much higher status than him.

"Old Ba, don't get angry." Daishan was doing peacemaking again. "Just tell me what to do."

"beat!"

As a man of determination, Huang Taiji immediately made up his mind, "Instead of throwing all the warriors on the road for hundreds of miles and letting the Mongols escape by themselves, it is better to fight today. This battle is inevitable. , we can’t afford to lose our military supplies and food.”

Huang Taiji doesn't care about a city or a place, but he has to care about the soldiers and horses in his hands.

The Tartars had a small population. If they abandoned their food and grass and fled back to Shenyang City, they would have to lose at least half of their soldiers and horses, as well as all the cannon fodder of the tribe.

Everyone's family members are in Shenyang City. If the Ming army pursues them, they will still fight at that time.

Even if the Ming army did not pursue them, they would starve to death without food.

"I've seen the bridge over there. There won't be too many people crossing in a short time." Huang Taiji pointed to the opposite side in a low voice.

After a short pause, he took a deep breath, stretched out his horsewhip and pointed at the big banner, "The Emperor of Ming is over there!"

"The morale of the Ming army depends on their emperor. As long as we can win the Emperor of Ming, then we will make a lot of money!"

If the emperor of Ming was taken down, the strongest army of the Ming country would surely collapse. If they were eaten at that time, the northern part of the Ming country would have no power to resist, and they could enter the pass.

The captured military resources, food and grass, and captured prisoners of war will greatly enhance their own strength.

Moreover, if the emperor is won, there will be a lot of room for negotiation or coercion.

All in all, there are great benefits.

Huang Taiji is also a person who likes to take risks. When the opportunity is in front of him, he definitely does not lack the courage to give it a go.

These words moved everyone in Baylor, and they are also very aware of the current situation.

After some discussion, they all agreed with Huang Taiji's determination.

"Each banner selects people to supervise the battle, and first forces the Mongols to take the lead, consuming the gunpowder of the Ming army."

Huang Taiji, who made up his mind, immediately issued an order, "Old Seven, you lead people to the first team. Big brother, you play the second team. Second brother, you and Yue Tuo play the third team. Hauge and I will play the fourth team, Mo Ergen Daiqing (Dorgon), you adjourn. Anyone who dares to escape before the battle, beheaded!"

Among the eight banners, seven banners are concentrated here, and only Duoduo's inlaid white banner stays in Shenyang, and in addition to deal with Mao Wenlong's harassment.

Huang Taiji spent a lot of money, determined to defeat the Ming army crossing the river in one battle before the Ming army on the other side provided massive support.

Based on the past records of both sides, the probability of a complete victory is as high as [-]%.

When the order was issued, Niulu Ezhen, Jiala Ezhen, Meile Ezhen, Gushan Ezhen, etc. at all levels shouted and called, and mobilized troops and horses to prepare for the assault.Under the waving of various flags, it looks like the scene of a large-scale event.

"Sure enough, I didn't run away."

On the spectator stand, Li Yunze put down the Nikon Vision in his hand, "I really saw you right, Huang Taiji, when it's time to go all out, you don't hesitate at all."

"Lu Xiangsheng." He turned his head and instructed Lu Xiangsheng on the side, "Order the soldiers to straighten out their armor and weapons, and eat canned food to replenish their strength. The reinforcements coming from behind will gather by the river in units of bureaus and then fill in the battle line."

"Sir, take orders."

With the means of communication in this era, it is not so easy to mobilize tens of thousands of troops.

Li Yunze reckoned that it would take at least two quarters of an hour for the enemy to charge.

During this period of time, it happened to give the Ming army a chance to regroup and replenish food.

He did not participate in the specific command arrangement, after all, he is not a master of micromanagement who "moves the machine gun position five meters to the left".

It is enough to have Zhao rate to teach Cao Bianjiao and others to command.

The soldiers of the Ming army who crossed the river built a defense line about [-] steps away from the viewing platform, and there were reinforcements in units of bureaus behind, pouring into the front line continuously to strengthen the thickness.

The firecrackers of the Shenji Battalion built a platform with stools and wooden boxes, and set up a fire line behind the soldiers.

After the order was conveyed, the soldiers sat on the ground one after another, took out their favorite canned fish, opened them and devoured them hungrily.

This kind of canned food rich in sugar, salt, spices, meat and fat can greatly supplement the consumption of the human body, and is the most popular military resource in the military.

On the table in front of Li Yunze, there were also two canned food.

He said that he must have breakfast with Sun Chengzong and others who came over.

Time passed like water, and the sun became more and more abundant, dispelling the early morning mist.

With the muffled ox horn sounding continuously from the Tartars in the distance, this battle that determined the fortunes of the Ming Dynasty and the Later Jin Dynasty was about to begin.
