Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 613 Bloody Battle in Tieling (3)

“That’s not how a fucking war is fought!!”

At the front line of the Ming army, Xiong Tingbi's angry voice echoed in the commander's tent. The noisy commander's tent now became extremely quiet, and the gathered civil and military officers all looked in one place.

"What does Liang Zhongshan do for food?!"

Xiong Tingbi clutched his long stick tightly and shouted angrily: "It's been a few days and Tieling City still hasn't been captured by me. Why did he wait until all the front lines got nervous and asked Jianlu to find it?" Where our army is weak, he can attack Tieling in a sudden attack and break our army's established tactics, right?"

"Bendou, calm down."

Cui Ruxiu looked around, and then advised Xiong Tingbi: "Liang Zhongshan's troops have filled in the moat. The siege battles launched in the past few days have also caused a lot of casualties to the stubborn Jianlu prisoners. I believe..."

"Have Tieling been taken? I only want Tieling now!!"

Xiong Tingbi glared and shouted: "I left Tieling alone in the first place in order to force the old slaves to gather heavy troops and force the Jianlu and our troops to fight on the front line of Tieling."

"What now? The battles are raging in Zhenxi Fort, Fu'an Fort, Chaihe Fort and other places. The soldiers are exploiting their strengths and avoiding their weaknesses, and are constantly looking for opportunities to fight with our army. They just want to break through the defense line so that they can rush into the rear of our army. If If you just kill him along the Liaozuo line, I can still fight him to the death. "

"But if during this period, the Jianlu who were guarding Tieling took advantage of the situation to break out and disrupt our army's troops at the front, the consequences would be disastrous!!"

When talking about this, Xiong Tingbi stared at the map in front of him.

In the area surrounding Tieling's front line, various labels are clearly visible, allowing us to gain insight into the trend of the battle situation in this area!
All the civil and military personnel gathered in the tent showed complicated expressions after listening to what Xiong Tingbi said. From the beginning of the conflict between the two sides, the fighting on all fronts was extremely anxious. Everyone knew that Jianlu was forced to panic, and the battle Although the overall strategy was clearly defined before, as the war progresses, it is inevitable that there will be some deviations.

The trend of no war can be completely predicted before the war. If that were the case, the war would only be one-sided from the beginning. But looking at ancient and modern times, there are not so many one-sided wars! ?
"Budang!!"

"What are you doing!!"

At this moment, a voice sounded outside the tent, which made Xiong Tingbi, who was thinking about the battle situation, angry. What he needed most at this time was silence.

The heavy burden of the Tieling battle was placed on him. Anyone could make mistakes, but he, Xiong Tingbi, could not make mistakes.

"Butang, the Tiger Army has arrived at the front line."

The general who was scolded boldly walked into the tent, and under the gaze of many people, he clasped his fists and saluted Xiong Tingbi.

"Hu Ben Army?"

"Is there this army among all the armies guarding Liao?"

"Never heard of it."

Some people in the tent looked puzzled when they heard the general's words, and started talking in low voices with the people around them. It was obvious that they didn't know anything about this Tiger Army.

There were tigers in the Ming Dynasty, but they were one of the twenty-six guards. However, after Jinshang Yuji ascended the throne, they were gradually abolished. They had a new name, the Royal Guards Governor's Mansion! !
Very little is known to the outside world about the organization and military names used within the Royal Guards House. The extremely strict confidentiality regulations mean that anyone who dares to leak the information will be severely punished! !

"Call over here quickly!"

On the other hand, Xiong Tingbi was very excited. He stretched out his hand and said to the general: "Ask them to come to the account." When he said this, Xiong Tingbi looked to the left and right again, frowned and said: "Please retreat first. Without military orders, no one can near!"

"Here!!"

Everyone in the tent responded loudly.

However, it is precisely this that makes many people more doubtful, especially Cui Ruxiu and Xing Shenyan. They have been by Xiong Tingbi's side before, but they have never heard of the Huben Army. Looking at Xiong Tingbi's performance, he not only knows about the Tiger Army, but also knows a lot about it.

"Are these two the chief and deputy generals of the Huben Army?"

When leaving the tent, Cui Ruxiu saw the two generals from a distance, and couldn't help but feel more doubts in her heart. She whispered to Xing Shenyan beside her: "They look really young."

"should be."

Xing Shenyan followed Cui Ruxiu's gaze and said, "You are young enough."

At that time, when the two young generals learned that Xiong Tingbi wanted to see them, they walked towards the commander's tent with their heads held high and their swords in hand. The mountain armor they wore made a clanking sound.

The two generals could feel the stares from the left and right, and saw many people talking in low voices from the corner of their eyes, but there was no reaction from the two generals.

"Hu Ben Army... Acting Commander-in-Chief Ma Xianglin pays homage to Xiong Butang!"

"Hu Ben Army... Acting Deputy Chief Military Officer Ran Tianyu pays homage to Xiong Butang!"

There was a sonorous sound in the handsome tent. Xiong Tingbi, who was standing with his hands behind his hands, looked at Ma Xianglin and Ran Tianyu who were holding fists and saluting in front of him, with a complicated look on his face.

Is this one of the ten personal armies designated by the emperor?

Despite the changes in the court situation and the changes in local affairs, Zhu Youxiao in Beijing was never idle for a moment. He continued to clarify matters such as the Imperial Guards' Office, the garrison of the capital and the North Zhili, and the abolition of the North Zhili garrison. Since then, Zhu Youxiao has redefined the emperor's personal army.

The ten major pro-military sequences affiliated to the Huben Army belong to the guard and maneuver sequence. They are not awarded gold medals by the emperor, and cannot be moved without permission when dispatching troops!
As famous as the Huben Army are the Siweiying, Yongweiying, Yongweiying, Jingwu Army, Jinwu Army, Yulin Army, etc. Except for the Siweiying and Yongweiying who are dedicated to fighting everywhere, other pro-army forces are A new system and a new military system were adopted, and the Huben Army was the latest to be formed, but it was also the one Zhu Youxiao had high hopes for.

"I have previously known that the main backbone of the Huben Army was selected by the Emperor from the Shizhu Chieftain Soldiers and Youyang Chieftain Soldiers."

Looking at the two generals Ma Xianglin and Ran Tianyu, Xiong Tingbi said: "We even asked two young generals to serve as acting chief and deputy generals of the Huben Army. I thought you two would be chosen. It was because the emperor knew that the two chieftains Shizhu and Youyang had fought for each other before. You two have made great contributions in the North Korean War, but I can see you two today."

After hearing Xiong Tingbi's words, Ma Xianglin and Ran Tianyu looked at each other.

"Xiong Butang, I never rely on these to get any position at the end."

Facing Xiong Tingbi's gaze, Ma Xianglin said with a sonorous tone: "The last generals and others rely on their true ability. If the last generals and others do not have the ability, they will be deposed. In addition to our Huben Army, those who were ordered to enter the Liao this time are also Yongwei Camp, they landed from Jinzhou Port and are now in Guangning, obeying the orders of the Liaodong Governor!"

"Xiong Butang, this time I was ordered to enter the Liao Dynasty. Our Huben Army and Yongwei Battalion are all carrying firearms newly developed by the Qing Li Division."

Ran Tianyu followed closely and said: "When I rushed to the front line, I learned that Tieling City has not been captured yet, and our Huben Army is willing to assist in attacking Tieling Paoze City!!"

Xiong Tingbi raised his eyebrows slightly.

Xiong Tingbi knew some of the reasons why the emperor promoted Ma Xianglin and Ran Tianyu to serve as generals and deputy generals of the Huben Army. This was the emperor's plan to rectify the chieftains in the future, and Ma Xianglin's mother Qin Liangyu and Ran Tianyu's mother Bai Zaixiang were both active in suppressing the rebellion. An is in rebellion.

In addition to Ma Xianglin and Ran Tianyu, there are also generals such as Qin Yiming, Qin Gongming, Qin Zuoming, Qin Zuoming, and Ran Tianyun who serve in the Huben Army.

Speaking of which, what prompted Xiong Tingbi to start a battle with Tieling was not only the escape of He Shixian and his companions to Huifa City, as well as various changes in the pre-Liao war situation and the Korean war situation, but also partly due to the emperor's attitude towards the southwestern chieftains. It can be predicted that in the future, more For a long time, the Ming Dynasty will be closely related to war.

But Xiong Tingbi, who is proficient in military affairs, also knows that if the Ming Dynasty continues to be trapped in multi-front operations, and if anything goes wrong during the period, the Ming Dynasty may fall into passivity.

So no matter what happens in other places, there must be changes in Liaodong. At least the future Liao affairs cannot be supported by the central government alone. Liaodong must try to solve most of the problems to ensure that the financial pressure on the court can be reduced!
