What did you see?
When Nurhachi didn't remind him, everyone was a little confused as to why he said that Li Chengliang had no murderous intention towards him. But when Nurhachi reminded him, everyone gradually realized that something was wrong.
Shuerhaqi suddenly said: "There is a contradiction between this route and the deployment of troops."
Nurhachi smiled slightly and looked at his forehead again. Er Yidu also nodded and said: "What Er Beile said is absolutely true. Big Beile, I'm afraid Uncle Li wants to sell Ma Chengxun to us, right?"
Nurhaci looked around the tent and saw that some people didn't seem to understand yet. He simply waved his hand towards E Yidu: "E Yidu, since you understand, it's up to you to explain it to everyone."
"嗻!" He also slapped a thousand on his forehead, and then said to the generals in the tent: "The meaning of Dabeile should be this: the eight thousand men under Uncle Li's command are all cavalry. Even though he left Crow Falcon Pass and went north, he was the prince. The river valley, but this valley is very narrow and long, and it cannot be used by a large army. Crow Falcon Pass is also far away from our Hetuala, and the cavalry cannot enter the forest, so we only need to use a very small number of troops on both sides of the valley. If they are harassed, Uncle Li’s main force will not be able to move fast.”
Some generals were surprised and said: "Uncle Li has been on the battlefield for a long time and is most familiar with the terrain of Manchuria. Why would he put himself in such a position where it is difficult to advance quickly?"
"Don't be impatient, wait for me to finish slowly." E Yidu waved his hand and continued: "To the south of Uncle Li's headquarters is the headquarters of Yang Yuan, his close relative. Yang Yuan sent 3,000 troops this time. They were all infantry, but they were asked to attack Hetuala, and were also given a task to win over Dong E's tribe.
If Yang Yuan wants to attack Hetuala, he has to go through the Fucha Wilderness and the Abdaligang Valley. This road is the farthest among the four Ming armies. He also wants to win over Dong E's tribe... Hey, I think he will let it go Even if we travel for a month, we may not be able to reach Hetuala and achieve what Uncle Li said in the Tong Bao, "the four-pronged army catches the turtle in the jar". "
This time everyone seemed to understand something, and several generals began to whisper among themselves.
Er Yi was too lazy to take care of it, and continued: "As for Cao Yu's troops, there are 7,000 people on this road, and among them there are 2,000 people from Qi Jin's Qi Family Army. Everyone knows the names of the Qi Family Army. The attack may not be as devastating as Uncle Li's Liaodong Cavalry, but in terms of defense, the Qi Army has never lost an inch of ground in thirty years.
Cao Yu's headquarters has 4,000 infantry and 1,000 cavalry, plus 2,000 Qi's troops, which means 6,000 infantry and 1,000 cavalry. This configuration is within the Ming territory of Liaodong. Relying on border walls and castles, it is enough to defend 20,000 Mongolian cavalry, but this time he wants to advance eastward along the Sukesu River...
Hey, you all know what it's like to go up the Su Ke Su Hu River from Fushun Pass. It's all twists and turns. If these thousands of infantry are to come across, they won't be able to do it very quickly. . However, this road is closest to me, Hetuala, in a straight line, so we must be on guard against it.
In this way, Uncle Li probably judged that we will ambush Cao Yu somewhere in Su Ke Su Hu River..."
When he said this, Nurhachi waved his hand: "Why ambushed him? He suffered a big loss in Chang'an Fort and almost lost his life in the sky prison, so he fought cautiously and almost timidly in the battle of Liaobei. It would not be easy to ambush him now.
I expected that when he went up the river this time, he must be extremely vigilant and cautious, so that no matter how fast he went, he would not fail. I don’t have time to ambush him, so I might as well do something else, I can do a lot of things - you continue. "
Er Yidu smiled, nodded and continued: "As Big Beile said, Cao Yu's path, whether it is from the terrain or his current fighting style, has the highest possibility of a steady and steady attack, so his path is the highest. It seems to be very close to us, but in fact there is no need to worry at all.
Among the four armies, the only one who can really send out troops quickly and will probably advance troops quickly is Ma Chengxun from the North Route. Ma Chengxun was originally entrusted with the important task of pursuing the Tumen army during the Battle of Northern Liaoning. Unexpectedly, it was just a false shot by Buri Hatu. Ma Chengxun was so excited that he missed the shot. You can imagine the anger and regret in his heart.
This time, he and Ye He had a total of four thousand cavalry and not a single infantryman. The route they were arranged was from Hada to Hetuala in the relatively open Hun River Valley... Judging from Ma Chengxun's combat style, I am afraid that one day would If you don’t want to wait, you must rush south and strive to get the first prize! "
Another general Anfei Yanggu smiled at this time and said: "Yes, judging from Ma Chengxun's performance, this is almost inevitable."
Eyidu and Anfeyangu are almost Nurhachi's right-hand men now. Apart from Shuerhaqi, they have the most outstanding military exploits and the highest status. They both judged this, and the generals have no objection.
E Yidu nodded towards Anfei Yanggu and continued: "Although Ma Chengxun is most likely to go deep alone, we can't be careless. This person was born in the Ma family of Datong, but he learned the cavalry skills of Ma Fang , the Majia soldiers under his command have always been regarded as elites by Grand Master Gao. This time, at least one thousand of the three thousand cavalry under his command are Majia soldiers. Their combat power is definitely not comparable to the trash we have fought against in the past.
As for Ye He's thousand cavalry, the leader was Su Wanbei Soerguo's second son, named Fei Yingdong. This man has little reputation, but is said to be quite brave. However, Ye He has always been very self-respecting, and this time he was willing to hand over his cavalry to an outsider to command him. This shows that this person must have some abilities and should not be underestimated. "
Anfei Yanggu chuckled: "Sorguo didn't know what was going on. Su Wan was already in danger under the oppression of Ye He and Ula. Instead of coming to join me in Jianzhou, he instead considered himself a thief and joined Ye He. He might not have a place to die in the future. As for whether this Fei Yingdong is quite brave, we have to fight him to know."
When Nurhachi saw them finish speaking, he nodded, looked around at the generals and said, "Is there anything else you don't understand?"
Someone asked: "Uncle Li made such arrangements because Ma Chengxun and he were not on the same side, but he was the commander of this battle after all. If Ma Chengxun was defeated, wouldn't Uncle Li be afraid of the Ming Emperor's blame?"
Nurhachi laughed, shook his head and said, "You still underestimate Uncle Li. He is not afraid that the court will blame him. Take a closer look at what he said in his reply to the court."
He paused for a moment and sneered: "Uncle Li said in the newspaper that he has asked all ministries to 'move forward together, hear each other's voices, surround on all sides, and catch turtles in the urn' - did you see it? He said that all ministries should 'move forward together, hear each other's voices'." What a joke, will Ma Chengxun listen to him and go 'go hand in hand' with the other three slow armies?
After all, Uncle Li is Uncle Li. He knows that under the arrangement of the four armies like his, Ma Chengxun is the only one who can get up fast and will definitely be unable to hold back. Unless Ma Chengxun becomes Cao Yuan, he will definitely ignore this seemingly inconspicuous order, rush forward with light troops, and come straight to me, Hetuala. "
"In this way, even if Ma Chengxun is defeated, Uncle Li has reason to say that this is because Ma Chengxun did not obey the commander's orders. What does his life and death have to do with his success or failure? How can the court blame him?"
The subordinates naturally felt relieved after hearing this explanation. They had some doubts just now because they were afraid that Uncle Li was too powerful. This obvious flaw was actually a bait he had left deliberately, waiting for them to take the bait.
So someone asked: "In this case, Big Baylor, does that mean that as long as we defeat Ma Chengxun, Uncle Li will withdraw his troops and recruit troops?"
As soon as Nurhaci heard this, he knew that even his subordinates were deeply afraid of Li Chengliang. If possible, no one wanted to fight Li Chengliang - this is understandable. Any powerful Jurchen chieftain in recent years, no matter how strong he looks, To any extent, as long as Li Chengliang takes action, he will only be awarded the title of head, without exception.
The title "invincible" is no joke. Just like when the Mongolians saw the flag of Totok Chatterjee during the civil war, they were intimidated before they even took action.
Another example is when Gao Wuzhi presided over the opening of the vassal ban while sitting in the capital, and he said that if any vassal king was not convinced, he would make a fuss. As a result, no vassal king dared to say anything about the vassal ban - he was "the most handsome man in the world." "With his hat on his head and his invincible record in front of his eyes, who would dare to fight him even if he doesn't know life and death? After the pacification of the Northwest, Prince Qing even lost 80% to 90% of his own property. Isn't it like making a fuss now?
People know that they can only pick weak persimmons. How dare they touch someone like Gao Pragmatic, who is so cold and cold in the world! She stayed in the palace obediently and gave birth to a baby, even though she was afraid that Gao Situ would cause trouble. She could only think about things like "making trouble" in her dreams.
Li Chengliang's prestige among the Jurchen tribes was probably the same, so Nurhachi set the tone from the beginning, saying that Uncle Li had no murderous intention towards him - this was not said casually, but to give everyone reassurance.
If everyone thought that Li Chengliang was here to destroy the stronghold - just like he did when he attacked Gule Stronghold and wiped out Wang Wutang, then everyone would be frightened before the war started. How could they lead this team?
Therefore, when Nurhaci saw everyone's reaction, he simply spoke more straightforwardly and carefully, saying: "Although our army's defeat of Ma Chengxun was tacitly approved or even deliberately done by Uncle Li, if you think this is all about this battle, , that's wrong. Uncle Li will not allow this battle to be just a "no win, no defeat" situation. Even if we surrender, it will be useless. He must win a big victory after Ma Chengxun's defeat. We will consider recruiting and other matters.”
Nurhachi said it so clearly that all the generals naturally understood it. Li Chengliang released the water, but he actually did so for two purposes: first, to weaken the strength of the Shi School in Liaodong; second, to contrast his performance with the Shi School, and to prove that he was more capable and less capable than the generals of the Shi School. Or missing.
Therefore, Ma Chengxun's defeat was "arranged" by him long ago, and he would definitely allow Nurhaci to defeat Ma Chengxun. But next, he is bound to launch a big war and cause heavy losses to the left guard of Jianzhou, and then he will consider withdrawing his troops.
But as a result, the generals of Jianzhou Zuowei changed their minds after hearing this. Li Chengliang's victory can only be based on their defeat. Doesn't that mean that he will have to fight to the death with Uncle Li in the end? This... I'm afraid I can't beat Uncle Li.
Li Chengliang sent out troops this time, and his headquarters alone brought 8,000 cavalry. This number was not much worse than Nurhaci's total military strength. As for the sophisticated equipment and rich war experience of the Li family's army, it was far from what Nurhaci had only done for a few years. Can be compared.
Although Li Chengliang was not a general of the Real School, as the leader of a private army, he would not deliberately avoid using products from the Real School industry when equipping his own army with weapons and equipment. Jinghua's flagship product, the Wanli II-type musket and lance, has the best-selling customer, Li Jiajun of Li Chengliang.
Li Chengliang also bought a lot of artillery, especially the No. 2 cannon and the No. 3 cannon. The No. 3 gun was mainly used by him to defend important towns in western Liaoning such as Guangning and Ningyuan. The No. 2 gun was his favorite light artillery that accompanied the army. Because he emphasized the mobility of the cavalry, he even purchased it separately in addition to the artillery required. 500 artillery-carrying artillery vehicles were obtained from Jinghua to prepare for field losses.
Nurhachi was fully aware of the equipment level of Li Chengliang's tribe, and he was not disappointed with how everyone changed their minds when they heard this. He just asked calmly: "Do you have any suggestions on this?"
How do you suggest this? You have already said that even surrender will not be accepted until you are defeated. How can we still persuade you to surrender in vain?
After thinking about it, everyone still slowly focused their eyes on the face of Erbeile Shuerhaqi.
If anyone can persuade him, it can only be Shuerhaqi, the second Baylor. If anyone else can persuade him, they are afraid that their future will end here.
Shuerhaqi felt the eyes of everyone, coughed slightly, and said slowly: "Ahun made it clear that this matter is indeed a bit tricky. The Ming army... although the guards are mixed, their elite main force is still very powerful. Yes. I have been to Cao Cao's army before, and his army has always been considered not as elite as Uncle Li's. But from what I saw last time, its eliteness is not comparable to that of our army. Regardless of the armor or weapons, it can be called a powerful force. So. Not to mention Uncle Li's elite servants.
If Uncle Li has to personally achieve great success in this battle before he is willing to retreat, I think that instead of waiting for him to come and get it, it is better to give it to him. Don't be surprised. I mean to pretend to be defeated and give Uncle Li a reason to retreat. "
Everyone was shocked at first, but they came to their senses after hearing the second half of the sentence, and they all looked towards Nurhachi in unison.
Nurhaci was silent for a moment, and finally said: "The situation is like this, so we can't force it. The Han people say that it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. I think there is some truth in it. Why not just give it a ten-year period. I will build a state and work hard to become stronger. After ten years, I will meet Li Chengliang again." Let’s compare ourselves!”
All the generals agreed, and some people shouted: "What Da Beile said is very true. It has only been a few years since Da Beile raised his army. With thirteen sets of armor, he has become so powerful today. If it takes another ten years, how can we be afraid of the Liaodong Ming Army?" Let’s learn from Gou Jian, the king of Yue, who spent ten years lying on his back and tried his courage! What if he suffers today’s humiliation and will be able to recoup his capital and profits in ten years?”
Nurhachi drew his sword and shouted: "Well said, it's not too late to talk about heroes ten years later! But..." He changed the topic, looked around the generals, and said slowly: "This time, we must defeat Ma Chengxun first, so that tomorrow People know that I am not easy to mess with in Jianzhou!”
