Chapter 540

Liaodong.

Songshan Fort.

Songshan Fort, which has been besieged for several months, is still the same.Occasionally, a head was stretched out on the city wall, looking around unscrupulously. Other than that, there were all kinds of banners and some cannon ports. Apart from these, there were no people to be seen. It seemed that this was an empty city. A puff of green smoke from the sky told people that the actual situation was by no means as peaceful as it seemed.

If it weren't for the Donglu troops around the city, who would have known that there was a war here?Obviously, it is a world where spring is coming. If it is not for the people and horses around the city, perhaps, outside the Songshan Fort at this time, there are already farmers plowing and herdsmen grazing.

If you can go up to the sky above Songshan Fort, you can find that there are actually many people on the walls of Songshan Fort, which is far from being as empty and peaceful as it looks from the ground.

The soldiers in the city wall leaned on the city wall, some were basking in the sun, and some were chatting.

In the city, it was much more lively and busy, and the place where the smoke rose was busy cooking for the soldiers.

In a small school field, quite a few people gathered, some onlookers cheered for the people in the school field, and in the school field, there was a hand grenade competition. The iron bumps that were as heavy as real hand grenades were to see who could still hold the grenade. The second is to see who is still accurate. In the school grounds, there are often people who throw both accurately and far, and the soldiers onlookers burst into applause.

In Songshan Fort, this activity is one of the few entertainment items, it is entertainment, it is also a drill, and it is also a practice of killing the enemy. The soldiers who win the game are proudly announced by the chief, and they can eat extra meals, eat meat, The crowd shouted again, and those who won were full of pride. Eating meat is only one aspect, and they can join the ranks of elite grenadiers. Now, several teams of elite grenadiers have been organized to prepare for the future. The dangerous situation of fighting is considered elite soldiers, and the treatment is better than ordinary people, and there is hope for promotion in the future.

Outside Matsuyama Fort.

Houjin Camp.

Huang Taiji looked at Songshan Fort with a binoculars with a scorched complexion.

In Huang Taiji's eyes, Songshan Fort is peaceful, the three-foot-high city wall looks so majestic, and the flags fluttering in the wind are so natural.

The weather is getting warmer, not as cold as it was in the past few months, and the green has come out of the ground.

However, this spring full of vitality did not make Huang Taiji feel better at all.Huang Taiji's heart was extraordinarily irritable, extraordinarily anxious.

It has been more than four months since they surrounded Songshan Fort in the Ming Dynasty, but they still haven't seen reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty, and there is no sign of food shortage in the city. Huang Taiji began to wonder if he did something wrong by besieging Songshan Fort Wrong, or in other words, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was particularly open-minded, and he didn't care about the thousands of people in Songshan Castle, so he gave up completely?Are you ignoring Matsuyama Fort?Or, did the emperor of the Ming Dynasty have other plans?
Huang Taiji began to see more and more opaque about the emperor, how could such a teenage boy be so calm, for a few months, to ignore Songshan Fort?
Putting away the binoculars, Huang Taiji became more and more irritable. Today's observations still yielded nothing. The smoke in the Songshan Fort was still so thick and thick, and the cooking time was still so long. There was no rice at all. The meaning of the pot.Although Huang Taiji knew that the Ming Dynasty supplied a lot of supplies to Songshan Fort, he still did not believe that Songshan Fort could be besieged for several months without any change.

The little bit of luck in Huang Taiji's heart began to be ruthlessly broken. Things often develop in the worst direction. This is true. Even after more than four months, Songshanbao still cooks on time every day. According to the situation, the amount of cooking and the number of people eating can be judged, and then the situation in the city can be inferred. Huang Taiji originally thought that no matter how much food was stored in the city, after eating for more than four months, he should panic , began to limit the amount, but depending on the situation, Songshan Fort had no such intentions at all. Huang Taiji began to lose his mind. He estimated that the grain storage at the top of Songshan Fort for at least half a year seemed not enough. Those lucks in his heart were broken one by one. , things have been developing in the worst direction.

"Is there any news about reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty?" Huang Taiji put down the binoculars and asked Fan Wencheng beside him anxiously.

"Back to the big sweat, there is still no news, as before, only a small group of elites are everywhere, looking for trouble with my big gold spies." Fan Wencheng replied carefully.Today, Dajin's horse exploration can only be carried out in the narrow area of ​​Jinzhou and Songshan. No matter how far away it is, it will be unsafe.
"Oh, really?" Huang Taiji became even more anxious.Now he is more and more unable to understand what Ming Dynasty's plan is. In the past, when they besieged the city, Ming Dynasty would definitely send reinforcements. Even if it could be delayed for a while, they would definitely come out in the end, but now there are four It's been more than a month, where are the reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty?over there?Not even a shadow.

In fact, it’s not that I haven’t seen the “reinforcements” of the Ming Dynasty. A few days ago, Huang Taiji’s carefully arranged trap caught a group of “reinforcements” from the Ming Dynasty. They were all elite cavalry, but Huang Taiji was overjoyed. The Ming Dynasty still couldn't leave the city alone, and had to send capable troops to rescue them. If the four to five thousand elite cavalry were counted according to the household system of the Ming Dynasty, There should be at least [-] to [-] troops, but the facts show that these [-] to [-] elite cavalry are only [-] to [-]. After they broke through the siege, the so-called "reinforcement" of the Ming Dynasty disappeared. Huang Taiji He led a large group of people to search around, but found nothing. Jinning is still the same Jinning, except for a few cities where there are people, there are only ghosts in other places.

Huangtai Jiben thought that he had defeated four or five thousand elite reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty and killed no less than 2000 people. No matter how you say it, it was also a big defeat for the Ming Dynasty.The rescue failed, what happened in the hall, there should be some movement... Could it be that the Ming Dynasty didn't trouble Yuan Chonghuan?Ineffective rescue, loss of troops, loss of soldiers, this and that one are no small crimes for the Ming Dynasty, and they will step down if they don't kill their heads.

However, according to the news from the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty never asked about this matter at all, and didn't even mention it. Huang Taiji originally thought that he had hurt the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty would be in turmoil because of this, and then walked away. Stupid tricks, loopholes in the defense, etc., but up to now, the situation is completely different from what he imagined. His idea of ​​promoting change and forcing the Ming Dynasty to chaos itself seems to have gone bankrupt.

Not only did the Ming Dynasty not pursue Yuan Chonghuan's responsibility, but he didn't even mention it. It seemed that the two thousand elites who died were not soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.This is a defeat, so you don't have to step down?Then why are you still surrounding Songshan Fort?So what are these four or five thousand "reinforcements"?In what name did the Ming Dynasty send troops?Or, is this not "reinforcement?"

Huang Taiji couldn't imagine that the Ming Dynasty would be indifferent to its own siege of tens of thousands of people, and would be indifferent to a war with [-] troops on both sides.There must be a conspiracy here.

Huang Taiji couldn't even imagine that sending thousands of elite troops out to fight was just the legendary spies used to deal with him. He has read the books of the Han people, but he dares to say that he knows some of the books of the Han people. He has searched all the books and found no precedent for sending thousands of spies out to investigate.

And the current facts have gradually proved that this ridiculous legend seems to be true. I'm afraid that barbarian Yuan Chonghuan really thought so, and I'm afraid he really did it like this. So supportive of Yuan Manzi's doing this.

The last time Yuan Chonghuan caught five thousand elites, although he didn't get all the power, he still managed to kill at least two thousand, but Yuan Chonghuan was calm for a while, and what followed was even more "crazy" moves. More spies beat his spies. Several spies reported that at least tens of thousands of horses "come to help". Huang Taiji was really happy a few times. , These "reinforcements" retreated again, with no intention of fighting at all. When they asked about the results of the battle, it was the same as the ridiculous legend.

Huang Taiji couldn't imagine that tens of thousands of people were mobilized to spy. Are the people of the Ming Dynasty all out of their minds?Huang Taiji couldn't imagine that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty would agree to such absurd way of fighting, but the facts are like this, and the current situation has further confirmed the ridiculous legend. Yuan Chonghuan never really planned to save Songshan Fort. The real purpose was just to It's just a spy who beat him up.

Huang Taiji, who didn't believe this was true at first, now believes more and more that it is true. The news from inside the pass, Ming Dynasty seems to have forgotten the outside of the pass, and there are too many new things impacting Ming Dynasty In human life, no one mentions that there are over 10 people fighting outside the pass. They seem to believe that the Ming emperor will definitely win, which makes Huang Taiji very sad.

"Damn Khan, how many of you really want to go to Xingshan Fort to check and see if the Ming Dynasty has come to help the troops, and Khan is sure or not?" Fan Wencheng asked cautiously.

"Cross Xingshan?" Huang Taiji's complexion became even worse. Thinking of Yuan Chonghuan's lunatic dispatching tens of thousands of horses to beat his spies, Huang Taiji felt panicked. When did the battle end like this?There is no rules at all.

"..." Huang Taiji didn't know what to say. He didn't dare to send a small group of spies now. Once they went out, the Ming Dynasty would definitely overwhelm them with ten times as many people. As for how the Ming Dynasty found them, Huang Taiji is also involved now. Understood, the Ming Dynasty issued binoculars to every hundred households, and each centurion had a shot. Standing on the top of the mountain, you can spot their movements from a long distance away. Their scouts want to explore silently. Almost impossible.

When Dajin dispatched troops to chase after them, these elites of the Ming Dynasty often ran faster than anything else. If they chased, they would definitely encounter an ambush, often with a grenade. Waiting for them to catch up and explode on the ground is really more troublesome.

"...One,...Three..., no, it's still..." Huang Taiji didn't know how much he said, hundreds of people went out, and now he is absolutely worried, a thousand elite, now he is also starting to worry, Yuan Chonghuan That barbarian will definitely dispatch tens of thousands of scouts. Three thousand seems to be guaranteed. Huang Taiji started to have a headache. In a real fight, the combat power of these three thousand elites would affect the situation of the battle.

"Let's not go out for the time being." The mountain in Huang Taiji's heart made Huang Taiji very depressed and a little panicked, and finally decided not to go out. That mountain was the tens of millions of silver in the hands of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Money, are you afraid that you won't be able to buy enough people to work hard?So what if two thousand people died?The Ming Dynasty didn’t ask at all. If Yuan Chonghuan robbed and killed his 3000 troops after Xingshan Fort, even if he was a great gold warrior, he could exchange one for two, but Huang Taiji felt that Yuan Chonghuan might not be able to do so. If you dare to give it a try, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty doesn't seem to care about Yuan Chonghuan's loss at all. The Ming Dynasty can lose 6000 people, or even [-], so can he afford to lose [-] elites?How many times can you afford to lose?Huang Taiji had to ask himself this way, the pressure all over the sky was getting bigger and bigger, making Huang Taiji gradually out of breath.

"Hey, sweat!" Fan Wencheng agreed, seeing Huang Taiji's expression was not very good, Fan Wencheng didn't dare to stay longer.

"Xiandou! Tell me, where are the reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty? When will they come?" Huang Taiji asked.

"Back to the Great Khan, Wen Cheng thought that reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty would definitely come. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty claimed to 'never abandon, never give up', so how could he ignore Songshan Fort? If Songshan Fort was really breached, Ming Dynasty If the news of the emperor's neglect is spread, it will definitely have a great impact on the reputation of the Ming emperor. Therefore, the reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty will definitely come. However, when and from which direction will the reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty come? This is more difficult. Guess, judging from the current situation, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty may still have the idea of ​​forcing me to retreat. If the war continues like this, I am afraid that the Emperor Ming will not really send reinforcements unless the food in Songshan Fort is fast. After eating, or can't hold on anymore, otherwise, Wen Cheng estimated that Emperor Ming would not send reinforcements at all. According to Wen Cheng, as long as Emperor Ming draws Da Jin with me, he will win. Emperor Ming has too much silver in his hands. As long as I don't lose, I win, and my Dajin, as long as I don't win once, I lose, I can't afford to lose my Dajin!" Fan Wencheng thought for a while and said, carefully analyzing the situation for Huang Taiji.

"Oh, is that so? Tell me carefully." Huang Taiji asked. The current situation has made Huang Taiji's brain very troubled. Now what Fan Wencheng said is true, Huang Taiji asked carefully.

"Back to Da Khan, Mao Wenlong is harassing everywhere in the east of my Dajin, and those hunters are active in the south, and they are also harassing, and Lin Danhan is also doing the same, and this Jinning, Yuan Chonghuan is also like this, and he does not hesitate to beat me. Da Jin's method of probing horses is used to force my Da Jin to retreat. From the analysis of this kind of situation, the plan of the Ming Dynasty is probably to force my Da Jin to withdraw his troops voluntarily, so as to rescue Songshan Fort. In other words, it is the so-called win if you don't lose..." Huang Taiji analyzed.

"It makes sense, this is true. Now, Mao Wenlong's side is harassing a lot, and Shengjing's defense line has retreated a lot! Mao Wenlong, it is really hateful. As for those bounty hunters and Lin Danhan in the south, they are just a few Fleas are nothing, if there is a threat to Da Jin, it is Mao Wenlong..." Huang Taiji said bitterly, Da Jin always regarded Mao Wenlong as a thorn in his flesh, a thorn in his side, and wished to get rid of it quickly, but unfortunately, Mao Wenlong was so slippery Very, not at all. Last year's battle made Mao Wenlong even more prominent. Even if Mao Wenlong was defeated, as long as Mao Wenlong survived, within a few months, Mao Wenlong would recover and come back to life. The Ming Dynasty never regarded Mao Wenlong's defeat as a big deal. They fought to the death with Mao Wenlong. I am afraid that in the eyes of many courtiers of the Ming Dynasty, they were sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight.But this Jinning was different, it was the kind of place that had to be rescued and would shake the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, Huang Taiji chose Jinning instead of fighting Mao Wenlong.

"Back to the big sweat, this is probably Minghuang's plan. In fact, Minghuang still had a few elites in his hands, such as Mangui, Zhao Lijiao, etc., but Minghuang put them in Xifengkou and Zhangjiakou. , to fight the Mongols. I heard that it was to prevent my Dajin from detouring into the customs. It is ridiculous to say that Mao Wenlong has not solved it. How dare my Dajin enter the customs by detour? If these troops are transferred to Jinning, Then Yuan Chonghuan's strength has greatly increased... But, the news today is that Man Gui and Zhao Liaojiao have always been in these two places, and they have no intention of moving... There is a reason for this..." Fan Wencheng continued to analyze road.

"Wen Cheng is right. If Ben Khan was Emperor Ming, he would definitely not put Man Gui and Zhao Liaojiao aside... Wen Cheng continued, then continued..." Huang Taiji interjected, and then Let Fan Wencheng continue.

"...Big Khan, most of the new army is newly recruited, with low combat power. Emperor Ming would not rashly send the new army to the battlefield. The reason why Man Gui and Zhao led the teaching to fight the Mongols is because Clean up all the tribes of Mongolia and cut off the Austrian aid of my Dajin. The second is that Emperor Ming is training the new army with actual combat... If you count the new army, the military power that Emperor Ming can use is indeed very strong. The new army In this case, if Qin Liangyu is included, he will be able to fight even more. However, Emperor Ming put Qin Liangyu's white-bared soldiers and recruits of the new army together for training, which further illustrates Wen Cheng's speculation and Emperor Ming's idea I'm afraid it's still mainly harassment. If Dajin can force me to withdraw, Emperor Ming will naturally like it. Let the new army come to train more time." Fan Wencheng expressed his opinion.

"Oh... well, it makes sense. That is to say, Emperor Ming is buying time for the new army now? Once the training of these new residences is completed, Emperor Ming will still send reinforcements. At that time, Emperor Ming will be full of Gui, Zhao Lijiao, and Qin Liangyu will all be there? Maybe there will be Emperor Ming's new army?" Huang Taiji said.

"Returning to Your Majesty, Wen Cheng reckons that's the case. There are a total of [-] elites in Mangui and Zhao Shuijiao. If Qin Liangyu and Minghuang's new army are counted, it is not difficult at all to be over [-], and there are at least [-]. Soldiers of war, if we cooperate with Yuan Chonghua's [-] elites, there will be a full [-] elites, and I have the strength to fight with Dajin..." At this time, through various signs, Fan Wencheng could not see If there are fewer things, since the reinforcements are not Yuan Chonghuan, they will definitely be transferred from within the pass.

"Hmm..., makes sense, makes sense! Xiandou is worthy of being Zhuge of this Khan, and his analysis is very reasonable..." Huang Taiji's eyebrows widened.

Although Fan Wencheng spoke beautifully, but in his heart, he was even more uncertain. This is not counting the elites from Mao Wenlong. If Mao Wenlong recruited [-] elites, then the Ming Dynasty would have at least [-] elites who could fight tough battles. He is a rich owner, and he promised enough reward and burial money in advance, so he is afraid that these people will not work hard?This battle is difficult...
