"Great Khan, Erbeile's soldiers and horses have already attacked the entrance of Yiyuan, killing dozens of southern soldiers and scattering the rest!"
"Great Khan, Erbeile's vanguard has already engaged about 2,000 Nanbing infantry and cavalry at the entrance of Yiyuan. Both sides are shooting arrows like rain. Our army is fighting fiercely. Erbeile asks the Great Khan to send troops to support!"
One by one, the cavalrymen came on horseback and hurriedly reported the military situation. Huang Taiji was sitting in a large tent by the Qinglong River (a tributary of the Luan River, close to Jialingkou and not far from Yiyuankou). There was a large map in front of him. Sun Degong and Li Yongfang were familiar with Ji Liao. Traitors from all over the place were painted for Huang Taiji. Without the help of these people to lead the way, Huang Taiji would not have been able to reach the edge of the Great Wall so easily.
His current plan is actually to attack the east and the west. The tens of thousands of elite soldiers in Shanhaiguan and Liao Town are not his target. His goal is to plunder the entrance, grab a large number of tickets first, and then alleviate the food shortage of the Great Jin Kingdom. And even if some elites from Liao Town were to be killed along with them, they would not fight in Shanhaiguan!
We fought inside Shanhaiguan and won’t say anything about the defeat. Even if they defeat the Ming army, they can still take refuge in Shanhaiguan and Funing... Although these castles are not as good as Ningyuan (Shanhaiguan's internal defense capabilities are not strong), the Liao Zhen army is still very powerful in defending the city. The old Khan of Destiny suffered once at the foot of Ningyuan City, and Huang Taiji suffered a big loss each in Ningyuan and Jinzhou.
This time Huang Taiji was on an expedition to the Xu Kingdom, with heavy troops going deep inside. How could he go to Shanhaiguan to attack the fortified city held by the Liao Zhen Army? If this cannot be conquered for a long time, then the trip will be in vain, and no one will reimburse the travel expenses! Even if we win, we still have to consider our own losses... If we fight against a strong city like Shanhaiguan, Yuan Chonghuan will still be the one defending the city. Even if we win, we will still have to lose 20,000 to 30,000 people!
How can we fight this kind of battle?
So sending Er Beile Amin to attack the entrance of Yiyuan is just a feint attack! Scare the Ming army to attract the main force of Jizhou Town in the Santun camp to Yiyuankou, and then Huang Taiji can command the army to attack from Xifengkou.
Only when you enter Xifengkou can you find big fish and meat to eat!
Huangtaiji has already planned it. After entering Xifengkou, we will eat Zunhua County first. After eating Zunhua, we will eat Yutian. After eating Yutian, we will eat Jizhou. After eating Jizhou, we will eat Pinggu. After eating Pinggu, we will eat Shunyi. After eating Shunyi, we will eat again. He fired a shot and pretended to attack Beijing, and after attracting all the Ming troops, he went to eat at Da Tongzhou... After eating at Tongzhou, he returned in triumph, went straight to Miyun, and exited the customs at Gubeikou.
Zunhua, Yutian, Jizhou, Pinggu, Shunyi, Tongzhou... If you eat all the way, the Kingdom of Jin will get rich!
If you don't eat so much fat, what's the point of going to the hospital? Go to Shanhaiguan, a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood? Huang Taiji’s Khan doesn’t want to do it anymore?
"What did Amin do?" Huang Taiji was immediately angry. "We asked him to bluff, how could he attack directly? He also had sex with the Nanjun in the entrance of Yiyuan... What did he want to do?"
"Great Khan," Dorgon, who was guarding Huangtai Ji's tent, interjected at this time, "Er Beile has followed the old Khan for many years and has been in battle for many years. He will not be so confused. Since he broke into the entrance of the courtyard, he must have a reason. of."
When Dorgon reminded him, Huang Taiji also felt a little strange. He knew that his 17-year-old brother was very smart and considered the problem very carefully, so he could be entrusted with important tasks.
He said to Dorgon: "Take your white-armored soldiers to have a look, and support Erbeile by the way."
"嗻!"
Dorgon replied, exited the tent, and then led the white-armored soldiers with the Zhengbai flag to fly to the entrance of the courtyard. By the time he arrived at the entrance of the Yiyuan, Erbeile Amin had already repelled the Ming army who fought with him at the entrance of the Yiyuan. However, he did not take advantage of the victory and pursue it. Instead, he withdrew his troops and closed the gate of Yiyuan. When Dorguan saw him, he was standing on the wall of the Great Wall at Yiyuankou, holding a gourd filled with wine in his hand, drinking and looking at the scenery.
"Er Beile, what's going on? The Great Khan asked you to feign an attack. How did you knock down the entrance to the courtyard?" Dorgon asked when he saw Amin.
Amin was not the son of Nurhaci, but the son of Nurhaci's brother Shuerhaqi. His father once had a split with Nurhachi and wanted to join the court, but was killed by Youjing and his two brothers were also killed. However, he was saved from death because of the intercession of Huang Taiji and others. Later, he inherited his father's tribe and followed Nurhaci and Huang Taiji in their campaigns in the north and south. But among the beile of the Later Jin Kingdom, he was always an anomaly.
So even though Dorgon was decades younger than him and not ranked among the big Baylors, he still dared to yell at him.
"I don't know what's going on!" Amin didn't get angry with Dorgon. He just spread his hands and said, "I'm also feinting, but the southern soldiers are too useless. They run away as soon as they hit..."
This is a feint attack met with a decoy enemy!
"What? Run away as soon as you hit him?" Dorgon was stunned, "This is the entrance to the Yiyuan!"
"Yes!" Amin nodded, "I also felt something strange, so I led my troops to explore inside, and ended up with 2,000 southern soldiers."
"How was the fight?" Dorgon asked hurriedly.
"Running again!" Amin said, "shot a few rounds of arrows, fired a burst of muskets, and then disappeared again! I was worried that there was a scam, so I didn't chase him, so I returned with my troops."
"There is indeed a scam!" Dorgon said, "The Southern soldiers in Shanhaiguan should be Liao soldiers, so they are not so useless." He thought for a while, "Could the Southern army want to lure us deep into the Shanhaiguan Pass, and then fight with Tu at Shanhaiguan?" Set up an ambush among the mountains?"
"Unlikely," Amin shook his head. "The terrain inside Shanhaiguan is fairly flat and open. It's not a good place to set up an ambush, but it can be a good place to fight... The Southern Army should want to fight in the pass!"
"Decisive battle?" Dorgon was stunned, "Aren't they afraid of being defeated by us?"
Amin sneered and took a sip of wine: "How can it be that easy? The Liao army can still fight when they are guarding their homes... We can't fight in front of other people's homes."
"I understand!" Dorgon's mind was spinning quickly, "Nan Bing just wants to consume us in Shanhaiguan!"
"Almost..." Amin took another sip of wine, "But if we do this, we can draw Nan Bing to the Yiyuankou area. It should be easier to fight at Xifengkou, right?"
"I'm afraid it won't work!" Dorgon shook his head, "Since the Nan soldiers have set up a net in Shanhaiguan, they must have assembled soldiers at Shanhaiguan... If we break through Xifeng Pass and enter, their The soldiers will definitely turn westward."
"So what?" Amin said, "The southern soldiers are too slow to keep up with us."
"But there is still the young emperor who bravely champions the three armies!" Dorgon said, "If we let them follow all the way until they meet the Nandi's cavalry, it will be difficult for us to fight. And are the castles in the pass easy to fight? I don’t know, if it’s hard to chew, I’ll be in big trouble.”
Amin thought it right and asked, "What should we do?"
Dorgon smiled and said, "Don't worry, Khan will find a way!"
...
"Long live the Great Khan, long live the Great Khan..."
When a yellow flag appeared on the wall of the Yiyuankou Great Wall, cheers filled the air.
Zhao led his son Zhao Guangrong, guarded by a few personal guards, into a mountain forest under the Great Wall at the entrance of the hospital. He leaned against a big tree, held up a telescope, and stared at the opposite hillside and the Great Wall. situation.
The Great Wall at Yiyuankou and the surrounding hillsides were now full of flags in yellow, white, red, blue and other colors. Through the telescope, Zhao Zhijiao could vaguely see a large number of slave-building Eight Banners soldiers setting up tents, digging trenches, and building fences on the hillsides and the Great Wall.
It looks like the army of Jiannu is about to set up camp around the Yiyuankou Great Wall!
"Father, Huang Taiji!" Zhao Guangrong suddenly screamed. After shouting, he raised an arm and pointed to a pier on the Great Wall at Yiyuankou, "Over there, over there... ..."
Zhao Shujiao quickly pointed his telescope at the pier. After a closer look, he saw a tall man wearing Ming emperor-colored cloth armor, surrounded by a group of slave soldiers also wearing yellow cloth armor. He appeared on the high point of the pier, and behind him there was a person holding a yellow sunglasses to protect him from the sun.
Zhao Shujiao breathed out and said thoughtfully: "It's Huang Taiji...he's here!"
