The Soldier of the Ming Dynasty

On New Year's Eve the next day, Li Yuanqing and his party passed through some boundless journey without accident.

However, Li Yuanqing had prepared plenty of materials in advance. Even though he was on the road on New Year's Eve, his relatives and soldiers, including the beautiful concubines newly collected by Li Yuanqing, did not have to worry about the cost of food and clothing.

It was like Li Yuanqing's side and his beautiful concubines in the carriage like silky soft waist. The first day of Chongzhen's three years came quietly.

Li Yuanqing can't remember how many times he spent the new year on his journey back to Liao from the capital.

But Li Yuanqing is very clear, these years, every step he took, are very practical.

Every step is a little progress.

Over the years, gather small streams and gather in the sea!

Five days later, on the evening of the fifth day of the first month of the third year of Chongzhen, Li Yuanqing and his party arrived at the deep mountain forest in Yutian, where they met Chen Zhong and shunzi, who had been waiting for a long time.

Chen Zhong is obviously thinner than before, but he is more capable. He has a pair of hawk eyes. I can see that this guy has never been idle even in the mountains and woods.

Shunzi is similar. Although he has some beards and looks a little sloppy, his coordination of eyes and body is much better and more flexible than before.

When you meet, you don't have to talk too much.

In the simple but solid and warm thatched house, the three brothers exchanged the latest situation while drinking hot wine.

Before, although Chen Zhong and shunzi had already known Li Yuanqing's next Haizhou strategy, the secret letter was not as detailed and detailed as Li Yuanqing's personal explanation.

At this time, listening to Li Yuanqing's complete explanation of Haizhou's strategy, Chen Zhong could not help but take a breath of cold air.

"Yuanqing, when are you going to start this? We, are we going to completely tear ourselves apart from the court? "

Shunzi also looked at Li Yuanqing eagerly.

Li Yuanqing grabbed a peanut, put it into his mouth and chewed it vigorously. He said with a smile, "big brother, for a while. This thing, after all, we have to decide unilaterally. If the court is not willing to tear its face, then we will be so rigid. If the court wants to take the lives of our brothers, how can we let them

Chen Zhong nodded slowly, "Yuanqing, actually ~, it's not difficult to win Haizhou. Even without the support of Gaizhou. But as long as we manage the Sancha River Estuary well, take the sea channel and supply Haizhou with supplies, there will be no problem. The key is... "

Chen Zhong pauses for a moment, "Yuanqing, when is this going to start? If you wait for spring, Sanchahe thaws, it is the best. But it is inevitable that Tartars will react more quickly at that time. We must have a fierce battle. "

Li Yuanqing smiles: "big brother, this matter, is not anxious. Governor Yuan said that Liao Dynasty was pacified in five years. How can we win Haizhou in one year? It's always about planning. "

“………”

Chen Zhong couldn't help being speechless. "It seems that's the same truth. However, Yuanqing, I still feel that the sooner the better. In recent days, intelligence from all sides on the eastern front has revealed that the Tartars may be 70% to 70%, and they will send troops at the beginning of the year. "

Li Yuanqing nodded slowly, "today is the fifth day of junior high school. According to the urination of dog Tartars, it's almost time to calculate the day. What do you think about it, brother? "

Of course, Chen Zhong understood Li Yuanqing's deep meaning. He thought for a moment and said, "Yuanqing, let dog Tartars into the pass at the beginning of last year. I'm afraid it's a sweet experience for them. I reckon that Huang Taiji, the grandson of Huang Taiji, has the sweetness of this time. I'm afraid it is impossible not to enter the GATT. At this time, the south of Liaoning is tough, Dongjiang is tough, and Liaoxi is also tough. In the west, Lin Danhan, a bird, doesn't know where he is now. The rest of the small tribes are poorer than the beggars. As long as he sends out troops, it is impossible for him not to enter the customs

With that, Chen Zhong's eyes suddenly brightened, and he said, "Yuanqing, do you think it's possible for us to directly block the Tartars outside the pass?"

But for a moment, Chen Zhong suddenly wanted to understand. He could not help shaking his head and laughing: "dog day! The world of dog days

Li Yuanqing picked up his glass with a smile and motioned to Chen Zhong: "big brother, we'll eat as much as we have appetite. It would be a good thing for Tartars to enter the GATT this time. I also want to see Huang Taiji's new army. "

Chen Zhong tried to kill the wine in the glass. His pupil shrank suddenly and said, "Yuanqing, if you don't tell me, I almost forgot about it. Yuanqing, if so, if Huang Taiji has advanced firearms here, how should we deal with it? "

Li Yuanqing said with a smile: "big brother, firearms are also inevitable. Our bird's blunderbuss can take 120 steps and Huang Taiji can play 100 steps. We still have the advantage. If it's time to have a showdown, it's going to be tough! "

"Hiss."

Chen Zhong could not help but take a breath, but also understood Li Yuanqing's deep meaning. For a moment, he could not help nodding.

…………After a night's rest in the valley, Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong, more than 6000 soldiers of the whole army, headed for the east line early in the morning.

At the beginning of last year, the Houjin army entered the pass, which caused serious damage to the people in the pass. They were literally devastated and their families were destroyed. In addition, there are a lot of "no man's land" along the route from the northwest of Beijing to Shanhaiguan.

This also made Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong, a large group of people, no longer need to cover up and disperse small groups to leave.

Of course, the flag can not be blatantly played, the road should also try to pick no one's path.

At this time, there were about 3000 strong troops on Chen Zhong's side. There were 6700 personal guards on Li Yuanqing's side, more than 2000 elite soldiers on shunzi's side, and more than 15000 horses on two horses.

In terms of combat effectiveness, there will be no natural enemies in this area.

However, Li Yuanqing is very clear, his good steel, but very difficult to use on the blade.

To a certain extent, under the current situation, the opportunity for Daming to gather the dominant forces of the whole Liao Dynasty and even the whole country to fight against the post Jin army has actually become mature.

Because after years of hard work, both western Liaoning, southern Liaoning and Eastern Liaoning have been firmly established, just like the three barriers in the Liao area, firmly guarding the local security of Daming.

Especially when spring ploughing is approaching, both western Liaoning, southern Liaoning and Eastern Liaoning are relatively rich in manpower, and each family of off-duty combat soldiers is on the rise of 20000.

However, Houjin was far less abundant than Daming.

Although Nuzhen in the later Jin Dynasty was classified as a "nomadic nation", in fact, this statement is not accurate enough.

To be exact, Jurchens in the later Jin Dynasty were a semi nomadic, semi fishing, or semi farming nation.

Although they are proficient in nomadism, they have been used to the sedentary fishing, hunting and farming for many years.

Especially after the old slaves rebelled against the Ming Dynasty, as a large number of Han slaves joined the rule of Nuzhen and became slaves of Jurchen, the proportion of farming in the later Jin Dynasty became more and more important.

In history, at this node of the third year of Chongzhen, because of the many victories before the later Jin Dynasty, the population under control had recovered from the old slave age six years before the apocalypse.

In spring ploughing, even if there are many girls, the real master still has to go down to the field in person, but he doesn't need to work hard because he has plenty of slaves.

But at this time ~, because of the appearance of Li Yuanqing, although the army of the later Jin Dynasty occupied a lot of advantages in the previous war of entering the GATT, it was obvious that there were more wolves and less meat.

The big master may have enough manpower, but these small masters are afraid that they will not be able to do so obviously.

This made it necessary to finish before and even after the Jin army sent troops.

Otherwise, once the cultivation of grain fields is delayed, the warriors at the bottom will never be too comfortable.

The cold winter in Liao is long and continuous.

An ordinary woman warrior, a family of at least five or six people, not slaves, plus a variety of livestock, daily people eat horse chewing, is not fun ah.

From a strategic point of view, this will be a very good opportunity for Daming to march into Houjin.

What a pity.

Although the Ming Dynasty was an integral part of centralization, it was necessary to integrate the scattered combat forces and form a cohesive force

Not to mention, Li Yuanqing can understand these, and how can Huang Taiji, who is so talented and magnificent, not understand it?

No accident, this fatso, he must do it first.

Li Yuanqing, who had already been surrounded by the main guards and had plenty of army horses and grass, would not rush to the road. He only kept the march speed of 30-40 Li, 40-50 Li every day. At the same time, he sent a large number of sentries around to explore the surrounding trend.

On the 11th day of the first month, Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhongbu's main forces had just entered Yongping, and before they had time to set up camp, more than a dozen sentinels sent a secret report from western Liaoning: "the main tartar army, with a total of 100000 troops, has passed through Guangning city and killed all the way to the West."

"I'm such a grandmother. What do these dog scraps eat in Liaoxi? The snow on the ground hasn't been cleaned up, 100000 troops! They just found out now? I'm afraid that the Tartars have already sent troops on the third and fourth day of the third and fourth day of the third day? "

Chen Zhong was at the edge of the woods. Leaning against his big, powerful and warm horse, Chen Zhong smoked his cigar comfortably. When he heard the secret report, he almost jumped up. The cigar fell to the ground. He picked it up quickly, but he couldn't help shouting.

On one side, shunzi's originally happy smile suddenly solidified. He looked at Li Yuanqing and said, "brother, this is Huang Taiji, the donkey ball son. Is he just a day? 100000 troops? Is he going to play with us Daming? "

Although Li Yuanqing was shocked, he was calm on the face. He took a deep breath of cigar and said with a smile: "one hundred thousand soldiers, Huang Taiji is not afraid to blow the sky? He's even counting Jurchens? I estimate that there will be fifty or sixty thousand people, and it will break the sky. "Chen Zhong also responded and spat with a smile, "Yuanqing, if you don't say it, I'm almost killed by these dog days' tigers.". How many soldiers can dog Tartars use now? How can the main force of 100000 be mobilized at once? 80% of the time, those sons of bitches in Liaoxi are full of guns. "

Shunzi also relaxed a lot, "Mr. Chen, those dog scum in Liaoxi, they dare to blow a thousand Tartars. If we really believe them, we will be stupid. However, brother, since Tartars have already sent troops, what should we do? "
