It’s over!
This is a gangster encounter!
The onlookers all felt chilled in their hearts!
What kind of officers and soldiers are these people? He acted clearly like a rogue, not only trying to rob things, but also people... What was even more despicable was that he even asked Fanjiazhuang's customers and long-term workers to submit certificates of surrender for human flesh murder, and made them guard Fanjiazhuang as cannon fodder!
Moreover, the officers and soldiers also asked the "bannermen, old and weak" around Fanjiazhuang who had witnessed the mutilation of human flesh to go back... Why did they go back? Of course it is to report to Lord Dhoni’s army! And these people don't dare to hide anything, because everyone in their family (mainly women and young men) has been kidnapped by the Ming army, and they have to clean themselves up!
Therefore, they must work hard to expose Fanjiazhuang's "innocence".
And even if Doni knew that the Ming army was playing a trick to coerce the people, he still had to bite the bullet and attack Fanjiazhuang... because his army was already unpopular, and he had to use the heads of "traitors" to scare people. ! Otherwise, if people's hearts are scattered, the team will be unable to lead!
In order to prevent Donnie from being soft-hearted, Tian Yiqing did two desperate things that could ruin his life before leaving Fanjiazhuang.
One thing is that he didn't kill the two Fan family members...but left a dozen elderly women and immature girls behind to cry to Donnie. Tragic fate - this is a show for Dhoni's rebels!
The rabbit is dead and the fox is sad!
The second thing was that he ordered people to burn all the more than 200,000 shi of wheat that could not be taken away, leaving only less than 10,000 shi of rations for Fanjiazhuang.
Now even if Doni wants to spare Fan Jiazhuang, he has no excuse... I have to say that the officials of the Ming Dynasty are much more evil now than when Emperor Chongzhen was in power! Everything he did was to force people to follow the path of the Ming Zhonglie!
After completing a series of evil things such as murder, kidnapping, coercion, and framing, Huang Degong and Tian Yiqing continued on the road, heading east to Shenyang!
Instead of attacking Shenyang, they will continue to do evil things... From Guangning to the east, there are still many "Fanjiazhuang" waiting for them to torment!
Jobs had already made a list before going abroad, and now he was following the list to destroy one village after another, and the custody made it unbearable for Donnie and the group of high-level rebels around him.
If you can't stand it anymore, you have to pursue it!
And if you want to chase... you can't catch up!
...
"Your Majesty, our master died miserably!"
"My lord, you must avenge our master..."
"Your Majesty, the Fan family is finished. All of them are finished. Not even a single person is left!"
"Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for us..."
A group of old women and children from the Fan family had been brought back to the Qing army's Liangfangkou camp on the east bank of the lower reaches of the Liao River by the Qing army's cavalry who were out on patrol. They were all unkempt and knelt in front of Duni, crying so hard that they almost died. .
Doni's face was ashen, and the Qing generals standing on his left and right were all dumbfounded.
The evil of the Ming army has exceeded their imagination, and they even know how to force the common people to surrender - is this something they learned from the bandits?
Moreover, they also learned the ability to sneak into the enemy's territory and cause destruction--isn't this a trick used by Emperor Taizong in several wars?
Okay, your Majesty the Great Tomorrow doesn't learn anything good, but learns all other people's harmful and dirty tricks. Can the court still want such a court?
"Take them down...and keep them under guard!" Donnie waved his hand and asked the white-armored soldiers and red-armored soldiers in the tent to carry away these crying women. The tent suddenly became much cleaner.
Just when Donnie was about to say something, there was another rush of footsteps outside, and then he saw a white-armored soldier hurriedly walking in. He saluted Donnie, and then handed an envelope to him with both hands: "Your Majesty, Shengjing Mansion urgently reports!"
Shengjing? What happened to Shengjing?
Donnie quickly asked Zuo Zuo to bring the envelope, took out the letter paper and handed it to him. After reading a few lines, he stood up suddenly.
"My lord, what's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, what happened to Shengjing?"
Seeing him like this, the generals on the left and right were a little panicked, and someone immediately asked.
Doni said: "Tens of thousands of Ming troops have crossed the Liao River and the Hara River, and also breached the Changsheng Fort in Shengjing Prefecture..."
The Ming army is going to attack Shengjing! ?
Are they too bold?
Could it be that they...are the main force of the Ming army?
It turns out that the main force of the Ming army is along the Daling River... They are going to take a shortcut and attack Shengjing. The outcome will be decided in one battle!
"Your Majesty, please come back quickly!"
"Your Majesty, Sheng Jing cannot be thrown away!"
"Your Majesty..."
No one could remain calm now, and everyone's judgment was wrong - whether it was Nikan, Obai, Tan Tai, Leng Senji, or Yue Le, none of these people had ever encountered an all-horse team configuration. The Ming Army Mobile Corps!
Moreover, this mobile corps does not have one person and one horse, but three horses (mules) per person. Its mobility exceeds the current Qing army, which is mainly composed of half-peasant and half-soldier infantry.
What's even more frightening is that this Ming Army mobile corps also broke into the Qing Dynasty's granary, so there was no need to worry about eating.
In order to defend their granary, the Qing army had to return with reinforcements and follow them, even if they couldn't catch up, they had to catch up!
Otherwise, they would have used vicious tactics such as murder, kidnapping, coercion, and frame-up to destroy the Shengjing Mansion?
Without the Liaohe Granary with Shengjing Mansion as its core, how could Dorney persist? Even if they can persist in resisting the Ming Dynasty, they are no longer fighting in the Liaohe River Basin. They can only retreat to their home base of Jianzhou, relying on the dangers of Wanda Mountain and Changbai Mountain to barely resist.
But to get to that point, Duny might as well give in early and accept the Ming court's conditions for dividing the town!
"Send the order, break camp..." Donnie gritted his teeth, "Obai!"
"My slave is here!" Obai, who had just returned from the Mongolian front line, responded, and then stood up.
"I'll give you five thousand, no, I'll give you ten thousand elite forward battalions to rush to Shengjing day and night... No matter what, we can't let the Ming army break Shengjing City!"
Although Doni's army is mainly infantry, it is not without cavalry. He also has 10,000 forward battalion light cavalry and 10,000 valiant cavalry battalion heavy cavalry on hand. The heavy cavalry is not very mobile and has to cooperate with the infantry to fight, so now there are only 10,000 forward battalion light cavalry that can be sent out to provide emergency relief.
As for how Duny's army will rely on for reconnaissance and cover after Qingqi goes out, that's not a concern...
"My slave obeys the order!" Obai also knew that Shengjing could not make any mistakes, so he received the order, turned around and left the tent to mobilize troops - he and his ten thousand people had to set off immediately and were waiting for them hundreds of miles away. !
The remaining 70,000 troops could not delay, and then had to go to Shengjing.
At the same time, 120 12-pound or 24-pound cast-iron short cannons had been laid out in Jinzhou, southern Liaoning, south of the Black Mountain Long Barrier where the Qing army was firmly entrenched. Teams of horse-drawn carriages brought countless wooden shells and gunpowder to the artillery positions, all of which were piled in a semi-circular ammunition fort built with sandbags behind the artillery, waiting to be launched to destroy the Qing army's fortifications and garrison.
These 120 heavy artillery pieces all come from the 6 infantry divisions of the Ming Army and are part of the divisional artillery regiments.
At present, the Ming army's field artillery is mainly division-affiliated, and division-affiliated artillery is divided into two levels: light and heavy. Among them, the light artillery is a 3-pound bronze cannon. There are 4 companies under each division artillery regiment, with a total of 16 guns. Often attached to infantry regiments during battles. The division's field heavy artillery consists of three 12-pound artillery batteries, two 24-pound artillery batteries, and one 24-pound mortar battery. Except for the mortar battery, which is equipped with six mortars, each of the other companies also has four. Full configuration.
In other words, when a divisional artillery regiment is fully equipped, it will have 42 artillery pieces of various types, which is very powerful firepower!
However, there are not many opportunities to gather these 42 cannons on the battlefield, because the weight of the 24-pound short cannon and the 12-pound short cannon is still too heavy. Except for attacking fortified cities, they will basically not be brought to the battlefield. When an infantry division maneuvers in the field, it usually pulls 16 3-pound guns, 4 12-pound guns, and 6 mortars, for a total of 26 guns.
Today is going to be a tough battle, so all 120 12-pound and 24-pound short artillery pieces belonging to the six divisions are here, ready to fire deadly explosive shells at the Black Mountain Long Base!
