This time Yuan Chonghuan also lost confidence, so after getting the news, he quickly sent his cronies to go with his letters.
"You did the right thing, but whether or not the Japanese army will come depends on who is in the capital."
The combat effectiveness of the Japanese army was not that great, and they usually fought against pirates. But Hu Yunqing didn't count on them.
From the last time Yuan Chonghuan led more than 10,000 people, it can be seen that although it was due to Yuan Chonghuan's command error.
Moreover, the Japanese army could only send troops to assist with the emperor's order. We were also afraid of being attacked by the Japanese army and others.
"Yes, I think so too. After all, I have done wrong things before, and the Japanese army will not help us."
Yuan Chonghuan was just a dead horse and a living doctor. If he went to the capital, the emperor ordered to find the Japanese army again. The Japanese army was preparing, and Shanhaiguan had already been breached by the slaves.
"There are still not enough people. Quickly mobilize a large number of soldiers and servants from nearby cities. As long as they are able to resist the slave establishment, bring them all to Shanhaiguan and let them prepare. Once all the soldiers in front are defeated, they will come to them. It’s time to top.”
Hu Yunqing looked at the deployment on the sand table. If he came to attack, he would definitely not be able to last for six days. In a war like this, the battle is about who has the people and the food.
Now Shanhaiguan is exactly the opposite of Jiannu. Shanhaiguan has fewer people, while Jiannu has more food. I thought of an idea and said to Yuan Chonghuan anxiously.
"I will send Wang Bao now."
After listening to Hu Yunqing's words, I felt a little surprised. Why didn't I think that Ming Dynasty didn't have much, but it had plenty of people if it wanted.
Obai's Zhenglan Banner and three thousand Zhenghong Banners, after two days of rapid march, also arrived at Shanhaiguan and set up camp fifty miles below the city.
"Commander Ao, are you going too far, asking my subordinates to stand guard for you?"
When Ashanla came, he also understood the meaning of his coming, which was to prevent the three thousand people from Zhenghongqi from mutinying in front of the formation.
Anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that this was a suicide mission, and they were also on fire along the way. Originally, their subordinates were doing a job that would cost them their lives, and they were not even allowed to rest, leaving them to watch for the safety of the camp.
When I came to the Chinese army's tent, I wanted to find out about Obai's theory, but found that Obai was drinking wine and eating meat.
"Commander A, you know the purpose of your coming here and the purpose of your soldiers, so you don't have to pity me. Come, sit down and have a drink to warm yourself up."
Seeing Ashan La rushing in with momentum, he knew the purpose of coming, but Obai didn't feel guilty at all. Instead, he smiled and said to Ashan La.
"Hahaha."
The other generals of Zhenglan Banner also laughed when they looked at Ashanla's bitter face.
"Do you think it's funny to have three thousand of us as cannon fodder?"
Ashanla's face was livid, he looked around and saw that they were all laughing with ridicule, and he clenched his fists angrily and asked.
"Commander Ah, this matter has nothing to do with our Zhenglan Banner. If you have any grievances, you can wait until the Great Khan comes. You go to him personally and ask him to move your Zhenghong Banner to the back."
One of the generals stood up, came to Ashala's side, put his hand on the latter's shoulder and said.
"Get started!"
Ashan La smelled the alcohol smell of the person next to her and waved her arm in disgust.
Zheng Lanqi, the drunken general, fell directly to the ground.
The people in Zhenglan Banner were not good at it either, so they pulled out their knives one after another.
"Everyone, stand down!"
Obai looked at Ashanla and quickly retreated from his men.
"Ashanla, what do you mean?"
"You want to use us as cannon fodder. In fact, you are not the only one who thinks so. Many of the slaves have this idea. But have you ever thought about, if Zhenghongqi is gone, who will be the next cannon fodder?"
Ashanla walked up to Obai, poured him a glass of wine, and then expressed his thoughts.
After Ashala finished speaking, the Zhenglan Banner generals present understood something at this moment and looked at their commander.
"Stop being alarmist here! How can I break into Shanhaiguan before you are all dead?"
Looking at the subordinates in the tent, he found that the smiles on everyone's faces were gone. This was before the battle. Obai slapped the table angrily, grabbed Ashanla's collar and asked.
"Do you think it's possible? Are you absolutely sure that we are strong, or do you think we are stronger than the Zhenghuangqi and Zhengbaiqi put together? You have been to Shanhaiguan yourself. Could it be that in a day and a half, we can win with the death of 3,000 people? of?"
Listening to Obai's ridiculous words, Ashanla shook his head and asked him.
Ashanla's series of questions left Obai speechless. It was indeed as Ashanla said, they Zhenglanqi would also be cannon fodder.
"Now that it's like this, what's your solution?"
After letting go of Ashan La, Obai looked at the other person. Since he could say this, he must have a countermeasure, and asked him anxiously.
Because the Great Khan will arrive tomorrow, the Zhengbai flag will also appear on the side, and the Zhenghuang flag will be behind as a reserve army.
If this is true, then Zheng Lan Qi's fate will be the same as Zheng Hong Qi's now.
"In this way, we..."
The three thousand soldiers under the red flag were all Ashanla's subordinates. He would not watch his subordinates die. On the way here, he had been thinking of ways.
"Okay, this is a good idea."
After listening to Ashanla's words, Obai also thought it was feasible.
Shanhaiguan also went on alert. Seeing the Jiannu army encamping in the distance, the soldiers and civilians in Shanhaiguan became nervous again. It was like a dark cloud hung over my head.
"Marshal, Your Majesty, fifty miles outside Shanhaiguan, a large army of slaves was discovered. It is initially estimated that there are more than 10,000 people. The flag is the Zhenglan flag, and some are Zhenghong flag."
The spies outside Shanhaiguan kept an eye on the movement. When they saw the army approaching the border, they withdrew one after another. Some were also hiding outside the pass, using pigeons to spread news inside the pass at any time. Ensure that Shanhaiguan can receive first-hand information.
"Don't be afraid, it's just a part of what's coming. The rest should come back tomorrow afternoon. After a night's rest, we won't attack until the day after tomorrow."
Hu Yunqing had long expected that Jian Nu would be summoned suddenly this time, and they would definitely not send out all of them. Some leading troops would be sent over.
I also carefully calculated their speed. Since the opponent did not attack the city immediately, they were not completely sure and were still waiting for the army behind them.
According to the journey to Shanhaiguan in Jinzhou, Shengjing, Hu Yunqing had also walked past on horseback before, and calculated the approximate time of their arrival.
"Your Majesty, Shanhaiguan is now under your command. I think you can help us turn the tide."
Yuan Chonghuan took out the tiger charm from Shanhaiguan and said.
