Win the Ding 1617

"Quick! Bring the wooden tray!"

Fan Wencheng yelled in a hurry, causing the guards inside and outside the big tent to panic.

When Huang Taiji learned that the Southern Guangdong Army came to help, the vanguard army had already arrived in Ningyuan City, and the leader was Li Shouhan's eldest daughter who was like a nightmare. come out.

Huang Taiji himself is a big fat man. If he is analyzed according to the theory of modern medicine, he belongs to a group of serious "three highs", and this symptom is called "wind vertigo" by the doctors around him. The specific manifestations are: It is caused by liver depression, easy to get angry, blood flow upsurge, leading to dizziness, stroke, high blood pressure and other symptoms.This disease eventually led to his sudden death in history. If we analyze his physical condition and medical records, it should be a sudden outbreak of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, such as massive myocardial infarction and cerebral hemorrhage. .

And this kind of illness became more serious after the outbreak of the Songjin Battle.Nosebleeds frequently, often filling a wooden tray.

Hearing the sad news brought by Fan Wencheng now, Huang Taiji couldn't help but feel dizzy and almost fainted.After exhausting all his efforts, he managed to turn the battle situation into the current situation. He spent so much money and food, and even his beloved concubine got involved! However, on the balance that was originally tilted towards him, Suddenly the Ming army added a heavy weight, how could this not make him feel like crazy?

"God, why are you so unfair to me?!"

The wooden plate held on the head by a guard soon filled up, Huang Taiji's nosebleed gradually stopped, and as the blood gradually slowed down, his emotions and thoughts also gradually calmed down.

"Mr. Fan, is there any change in tomorrow's situation? Where is Li Shouhan's brigade?"

"Return to the master. According to reports from various places, Li Shouhan, Uncle Ningyuan of the Ming Dynasty, followed the order of Chongzhen's son. The brigade landed in Denglai and other places, and prepared to put down the Shandong bandits first. After being expelled from the customs, they went northward and left the customs. The emperor of Ming Dynasty was worried that the situation in Shandong would become worse after the arrival of Raoyu Baylor's army. Now Li Qingshan and other rebels and the remnants of Xu Hongru's old department have cut off the canal and water transportation. I am worried that if Abatai arrives in Shandong, or disturbs the cemetery of the saint in Qufu, or captures the city and loses his relatives. The most dangerous thing is to join forces with Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai and others who are currently besieging Kaifeng in the east of Henan, then the situation will be completely corrupted Therefore, Ning Yuanbo's army, together with [-] people from the Beijing camp, went to Shandong first, and then sailed from Denglai to Liaodong for reinforcements." As for Li Shouhan, Fan Wencheng and Huang Taiji both used a more neutral Call it title.There are two reasons. First, several battles with the Nanyue Army and the model brigade that has a blood relationship with the Nanyue Army all failed. Among the high-ranking people in Manchuria, there was a trace of fear and strength towards the Nanyue Army and its master from the heart. Worship mentality.[-]. The title of Uncle Ning Yuan was the title of the Li family in Tieling back then. If he accused or insulted this title, it would be a disaster. . . . .Didn't even Huang Taiji's family scold him?Therefore, it is customary nowadays that when people mention Li Shouhan, they only call him Uncle Ning Yuan and not his name.

"Hmph! A bunch of short-sighted, vegetarians!" Hearing this.Huang Taiji felt much more at ease.The blackness on the black face also gradually subsided a lot, replaced by a morbid blush.

"Your servant also thinks so. If the kings and ministers of the Ming Dynasty ignore the affairs of Shandong and just send all the soldiers of Uncle Ning Yuan into the battlefield of Liaodong, then our Qing Dynasty will be in danger!"...

"If Liaodong is settled, what's the matter with the Central Plains? But, if that's the case, where should the Liaodong Ming army generals and court officials go to get promoted and make a fortune? I'm afraid Li Shouhan himself is worried about ending up as Marquis of Huaiyin. "

"Mr. Fan, deliver the decree!"

"The slave is here!"

"The first decree. Give it to Raoyu Baylor Abatai in the pass. You order people to find a way to go to Ningyuan and take a sea boat to the pass. Be sure to hand it over to him in the shortest possible time."

Huang Taiji's tone was cold and severe, which made Fan Wencheng shudder. "The slave will follow the order."

"Tell him, let him be sure to hold back Ning Yuanbo's men and horses before I get rid of Hong Chengchou's tens of thousands of horses. It doesn't matter if he joins the joint stock market, as long as he holds Uncle Ning Yuan back and doesn't let him go to the Liaodong battlefield one by one, in the future, all his more than 1 soldiers, horses and slaves will all be exhausted, and every horse will flee back alone, and I will come in person Thirty miles away from the outskirts of Shenyang!"

Fan Wencheng, who knelt on the ground and drafted the decree for Huang Taiji, trembled, almost getting ink stained.Be good, the emperor is really willing to pay for it! More than 1 soldiers and horses, as long as they can hold back Uncle Ning Yuan, will they lose them all, or fight them all?Also go out of the city to meet the defeated general Abate? !However, now that the battle has come to this point, the commanders of both sides are like gamblers who have lost their eyes, cutting off a piece of meat from their legs and placing it on the gambling table.

"Prepare another decree for Dorgon, Prince Rui in Tashan Castle! I will grant him full authority, no matter what means he uses on the front line of Tashan, what rewards he promises to his servants, what rank he wants to promote, who he kills As long as he separates the Nanyue Army from the Wu Biao Model Brigade in Songshan Fort on the Tashan line, I will agree to everything!"

With the previous decree at the bottom, Fan Wencheng's heavy reward to Huang Taiji has made him immune to major decentralization.If power is not delegated, on the day the army is defeated and the country is destroyed, Huang Taiji will be the next Yang Yinglong and She Chongming.Why do such stupid things that risk your life and money?

"My slave heard that Prince Rui brought most of the family members of the two white flag soldiers under his command to Tashan Fort. I don't know what that means."

Drafting the decree belongs to the drafting decree, if you are a slave, you should remind the master or remind him.Most of the families of the two white flags moved to Tashan Fort, which was one step away from the Ming army.

After Dorgon conquered Tashan Fort, he massacred all the soldiers and civilians who lived in the fort. After ordering people to clean up the house, he ordered the officers and generals of the headquarters to bring his wife, children, and children.

"This battle has been won. Here you can wait for the slaves to give your family what you have gained as soon as possible. If you lose, your family will go with you!"

at this point.Huang Taiji already knew it clearly in Dorgon's report, but he didn't plan to tell Fan Wencheng.This can be regarded as a desperate attitude.

"This is the decree. You go to Tashan personally after dawn, and explain what I mean to Dorgon."

After dawn, Master Fan led hundreds of people and escorted dozens of carts and set off.

Except for some gold, silver, grain, grass, wine, meat, oil, salt, spices, silk and satin cloth, what is loaded on the car is more combat-related materials.Gunpowder, as well as the newly manufactured, shovel and pickaxes that are still shining with a blue metallic luster.

"These shovels and pickaxes were recently made by that servant of Chen Banda. This servant can do nothing else. When it comes to iron metallurgy and other things, there is no one among the many talents in the Qing Dynasty. The Huang family in Shanxi, Fan The family and the others obtained a few blueprints from Nanzhong, which were drawn by spying on Nanmanzi's iron blast furnace from a distance. The source is now stable!"  …

Although Chen Banda built only a few earthen blast furnaces based on materials stolen by Shanxi merchants, and they were not as technologically advanced as the furnaces in Foshan, they were much more advanced than the smelting furnaces used by the Liaodong rebels.Although charcoal is still mainly used, nearly a thousand catties of pig iron can be produced in one furnace.With enough pig iron, tools such as shovels, pickaxes, and pickaxes, which were originally extremely luxurious, can be made.It is used to dig trenches and bury deer villages.

Seeing the border of Tashan Mountain from a distance, Fan Wencheng and others were discovered by the rangers of the two white flags.Along the way, they entered the positions of the two white flags.

"Prince Rui, my servant Fan Wencheng pays tribute to Prince Rui!"

Along the way, Fan Wencheng was shocked by the atmosphere and scene near Tashan Fort.

In the frigid weather, the soldiers, coats, and handymen of the two white flags all had steam on their heads and sweat on their foreheads.There are even those brave people who simply took off their upper body armor, straightened their backs and waved all kinds of crude tools to continuously dig fortifications and trenches.

In the past, Tashan Fort, which could accommodate thousands of soldiers and horses and a population of more than [-], has become the base camp of the families of the two white flags.Those twelve or thirteen-year-old children were also wearing cotton armor just like their father and brother.Patrolling back and forth with a knife and gun in hand, replacing father and brother's errands.

Accompanied by officials with two white flags.Fan Wencheng rode his horse from Tashan Fort, heading for Baitai Mountain where Dorgon was at this time.

Standing on the top of Baitai Mountain and looking out, you can have a panoramic view of the Liaoxi Corridor, the land is vast, and the plains and hills are undulating.

Looking up, an official road winds from Shanhaiguan and passes in front of Tashan Fort.Although the location of Tashan Fort looks inconspicuous, it is a piece of bone, and it is firmly stuck in this throat!

"Mr. Fan, to the north is Songshan and Jinzhou. You came there just now. The road is only more than [-] miles. If you gallop on a fast horse, you can reach the city of Jinzhou in two hours. To the south is Ningyuan City. The same It is a fatal place. To the east of this place is the sea. The Baitai Mountain at our feet has the narrowest section between the mountain and the sea, which is only twenty miles away. The terrain on the side is open and there is no danger to defend. If the king does not want to become a puddle of mud under the artillery fire of the Nanyue Army and the Ningyuan Army, he can only rely on Hongluo Mountain, Baitai Mountain, and Dayu Mountain to fight with them repeatedly, one by one. Fight to the death on the top of the mountain!"

"Fishing Mountain? Is that the small island in the sea at this time?"

Relying on other people's guidance, Fan Wencheng pointed to a small mountain not far away where the sea water cut off the connection with the land and asked.

There is Fishing Mountain.At first glance, this hillside on the east side of Jinzhou Bay is very inconspicuous. When the tide is high, it is an island, and when the tide is low, it is a shoal that connects with the coast.

He fought with the old slave father and son for many years, and during the battle of Shenyang, he slashed and killed the guarding officers and soldiers with his sword. Fan Wencheng's military experience is far from comparable to that of Yuan Dushi, who has been praised to the sky.

"Prince Rui, from the perspective of a slave, the terrain here is easy to attack and difficult to defend! The east is surrounded by the sea, and the Nanyue Army is also known for its navy. If the naval artillery fires heavily and the cover troops attack from the sea, what should the prince do?" How about it? If Wu Sangui attacked and occupied the Dongshan Mountains and Yingbi Mountains in the south, and set up cannons condescendingly, Tashan Fort, where the prince was stationed, would be under the threat of artillery fire. If the wolf cavalry from all over the place enters in a conflict...My lord, this Tashan Fort is basically safe to defend, so I'd better ask my lord to find another place to go!"

"Haha! Mr. Fan, you only saw that our defensive positions are vulnerable to artillery fire and cavalry raids from the Southern Guangdong Army and Ningyuan Army. You only saw that the terrain here is only moderately undulating, and there is no danger to defend. But you have never seen my two white flags There is Hongluo Mountain to the west of the position. Whether it is the Nanyue Army or the Ningyuan Army, they can't turn around. They can only pass through a hole in the front of Tashan, and they can't deploy a large force. I have two white flag soldiers and horses. The troops and firepower can be concentrated. Can invest more troops at any time to eat up the team they rushed in!"...

Duoduo waved the bared iron steel saber in his hand.The gold filigree inlaid on the hilt of the saber gleamed lovely in the winter sun.

"Look, this area is dozens of miles away, from the sea to the direction of Songshan Fort, Xingshan Fort, and Shanhaiguan, in all directions, where is it not digging a big trench?! Mr. Fan, you are here this time, send someone else We brothers are not particularly grateful for things. Only those shovels, pickaxes, pickaxes, etc., my soldiers with white flags, white flags, and those coated slaves are all inexplicably grateful!"

Dodo's words.It is not an exaggeration. The Eight Banners Army started from old slaves, marched and hunted, erected fences in winter, and dug trenches in summer. It can be said that they have great experience in digging trenches.The Battle of Jinzhou this time showed their trench-digging skills to the fullest.

Their trenches are staked.There is a rope on the stake, and a bell on the rope.There are dogs by the bell, and the lines of defense are very tightly arranged.Historically, at the beginning of the Battle of Jinzhou, a long trench was dug outside Jinzhou City.Because of his ineffective supervision, Dorgon was also demoted and fined silver.After changing Jierhalang to lead the troops on the front line of Jinzhou, the long trench fortifications were quickly completed.After Zu Dashou found out that he was trapped, he made several assaults one after another, but he couldn't break through the trench defense line dug by the Qing army.

The huge and complicated fortification system in front of us, although there are only trenches and a few deer villages, lacking items such as wooden stakes and long-rope hounds, but dense cobweb-like trenches criss-cross the land of the Liaoxi Corridor.

Soldiers with two white flags Manchuria and Baoyi Niulu braved the biting cold wind blowing from the sea to dig on the frozen ground. The soil dug up from the trench was rammed into an earth wall .The main wall is more than half the height of a person, and it can cover musketeers and archers to shoot.In order to make the earth wall stronger, densely packed handymen shuttle back and forth to fetch water from the Yinma River or the seaside, and pour it on the earth wall, making it an extremely hard ice wall.

Between the earthen walls are wide but not too deep ditches, more than ten feet wide and less than six feet deep, which happens to be a distance that neither a man nor a horse can cross in one step.

Mostly it is an earth wall accompanied by a ditch, which is dazzling, and it is not clear whether the ditch is sandwiched by the earth wall or the earth wall is sandwiched by the ditch.However, there are many spaces left between the earthen walls, either for placing artillery, or for soldiers and horses in the banner to attack.In front of the earth wall, many incoherent ditches were also dug, and the excavated soil was also built into a small wall with a height of half a person or less than half a person, and poured with water to make it extremely hard.

The attack channels of the earth wall were also dug into trenches, and people could use the blind area of ​​sight to move back and forth on the horizon to avoid the destruction of artillery fire.Those dense ditches and earthen walls are the natural enemies of solid bullets, which are known for their bouncing lethality, and can minimize the range of movement of shells.

In the trenches used for traffic attacks, relying on the artillery emplacements reserved by the earthen walls, Fan Wencheng saw large and small artillery, ranging from tiger crouching cannons, small Flang machine guns, small copper cannons, to three-pound guns, Six-pound guns, large and small artillery are carefully placed everywhere.

Many traffic ditches are relatively wide. In order to provide a buffer for people coming and going, an earthen platform was specially left and a circular passage was built.But even on this earthen platform, a small iron cannon was placed.

"Fan Wencheng, you dog slave, let me guess what this cannon is for?!"

Duoduo yelled at Fan Wencheng rudely, and pointed his whip at the small iron cannon that was half lying on the ground and could be mistaken for half a dead tree root if you didn't look carefully.

"Returning to Prince Yu's master, this slave is stupid and doesn't know."

Fan Wencheng didn't dare to say much about this absurd prince who had more than enough bravery but not enough strategy, he could only tell the truth to satisfy his vanity.

"This king knows that you dog slave doesn't know! Look, the muzzle of the cannon is facing the south. If there is an army of southern barbarians rushing in, they will charge inward along this trench. Suddenly the cannon is aimed at their The formation is about to shoot, think about it carefully, that view," Dodo stuck out his tongue, licking his chapped lips from the wind, "isn't it beautiful?!"

Similar wicked designs abound in this set of fortifications that combine both offense and defense.

But it was nothing more than sixty or seventy steps in front of the camp, just within the effective strike range of his firecrackers, and beyond the lethality of the enemy's bows and arrows, he began to dig a few deep trenches.

The excavated soil was built into a small wall in front of the trench. The wall was not high, half or less than half a person's height.When the cavalry or infantry of the Ming army encountered the low walls of these trenches, it became an obstacle that hindered their progress and prevented them from hiding.

Of course, between each trench, there will be a space of more than ten or twenty steps, which is convenient for the Qing soldiers to charge, and it will directly cause their charge troops to be crowded, and the own side can also use limited troops.Cause maximum fire damage to the enemy.

In the empty section of the earth wall in between, there are no wooden fence chariots, only a Buddha wolf machine gun and a tiger crouching gun, and there are densely packed firecrackers covering them on both sides.Wartime strategy, the Buddha wolf machine artillery fires first, followed by the tiger crouching artillery, if this wave of enemy troops does not collapse, then use the firecracker.

To deal with those Ming soldiers who rushed into several trenches stepping on the corpses of their comrades, what awaited them were the spearmen and sword and shield soldiers of the two white flags who had been waiting for a long time.Hand-to-hand combat, where the enemy and the enemy are mixed together, are precisely the strengths of these weapons. Those soldiers of the Ming army who are used to oppressing the soldiers of the Eight Banners with firearms are bound to be crushed in the face of such an attack.

"Prince Rui, why does this servant look familiar to this formation? I seem to have seen it somewhere before?"

Looking at the people who were still struggling to dig the ground in the sea breeze, their foreheads and faces were sweating, but their hands were swollen from the cold and their tails were swollen, Fan Wencheng thoughtfully asked Dorgon for advice.

This seemingly indefensible area has become a huge trap and mud pit after days and nights of continuous supervision by the Dorgon brothers.His Eight Banners soldiers and Packed Soldiers can rely on this muddy pit to move freely, while the attacker has to pay the price of flesh and blood for every step forward.

"Mr. Fan, this is the method of my Eight Banners army, plus the method used by the barbarians in Wunan, Hexi, to deal with us. Today, the king will return the property to the original owner, and add some condiments by the way. Please eat well Meal!"
