"Your Majesty, how many months ago did you know that Jiannu would attack Da'ankou via Mongolia?"

"have no idea!"

"That……"

"Mr. Sun Ge, this is not important. What is important is that there are two armies available now."

Yuan Keli interrupted Sun Chengzong's continued questioning, and the pupils in his eyes tightened, as if he thought of something.

Glancing at Li Ruolian, who remained transparent, he saw that Li Ruolian's expression changed slightly, which immediately confirmed his suspicion.

Then he looked at Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, even if these two armies can quickly reach Da'ankou and Xifengkou, if Jiannu's army retreats, it will still be unstoppable!"

"not necessarily!"

Sun Chuanting, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke: "If your Majesty uses the Royal Thunder Battalion to carry the Palm Thunder, not only will it be able to block it, but it will certainly be able to support the reinforcements of the Shanhaiguan Army."

This time it was Sun Chengzong and Yuan Keli's turn to be confused. Yuleiying and Palmlei were two things they had never heard of.

Literally understood, the Yulei Camp is an army similar to the Shenji Camp.

The palm thunder is a firearm similar to the sky-shaking thunder, but where did these two come from?

"Two dear friends, Yuleiying and Zhangzhonglei, I will explain to you after this battle. Before that, keep it secret!"

After Chongzhen finished speaking, he pointed at the map and continued: "Da'ankou, Longjingguan, and Xifengkou are all mountainous areas.

With the combat power of Tengxiang's left guard and white pole soldiers, coupled with the Yulei camp, it would be difficult for the 60,000 retreating army to attack desperately,

But as long as the garrison of Santun camp can entangle most of the Jiannu coalition forces, it will be enough. When the garrison of Shanhaiguan arrives, Jiannu will be trapped in the pass.

At that time, I will mobilize the troops from Beijing City, Xuanfu and surrounding guards to surround and kill them.

I named this battle the Tianlu Warfare. Tengxiang Zuowei and Baiganbing were the top of the furnace, Zunhua and Santun Camp were the bottom of the furnace.

The reinforcements from Shanhaiguan and Xuanfu in Beijing are the furnace walls. No matter how many Jiannu enter the Pass, I will completely melt them down! .

Even if it’s two for one or three for one, we won’t hesitate! You should understand the reason! "

The three people's faces suddenly became serious.

Taking advantage of the Ming Dynasty's lack of field troops and cavalry, Jiannu defeated the Ming Dynasty steadily over the years.

For example, in the Battle of Saarhu, tens of thousands of the elites of the Ming Dynasty were killed by Jiannu, and the vitality of the Ming Dynasty was severely damaged.

Fortunately, on the Ning defense line, Jiannu's repeated attacks were thwarted, but they immediately adjusted their strategies and began to plot against the Mongolian tribes.

If we can make an alliance, we will make an alliance. If we can win over, we will win over. If we cannot win over, we will fight until the tribes surrender. Now Jiannu can actually chase Chahar Lindan Khan and fight.

If Jiannu was given a few more years, it would be possible to unify the Mongols.

A Chahar alone can call out the Lord of 400,000 Mongols. If they are unified, what's the point?

This time may be within five years.

By then, even if the Ming Dynasty has artillery, it will be able to train hundreds of thousands of elites. Is it possible to fight against the Jiannu cavalry?

It is possible to defend the city, but how to defend the nine-border defense line of the Great Wall?

A robbery in Xuanfu today and a robbery in Datong tomorrow, who can bear it?

Therefore, wiping out the Jiannu coalition forces would not only weaken the strength of the Jiannu, but also undermine the prestige of the Jiannu. It would also serve as a warning to the Mongolian tribes who had taken refuge in the Jiannu.

Don't follow the Jian slaves. If you can build Jian slaves today, you can be wiped out tomorrow.

Although there may be counter-effects, which will make the Mongolian tribes afraid and have a closer relationship with the slaves.

But now that they have come together, it is better to take advantage of the opportunity to kill some of them.

"My preliminary plan is to hold our troops temporarily until the Jiannu attack Zunhua City, and then send out Baigan soldiers and Tengxiang left guards to block the Jiannu's back road. The troops of the three camps will entangle the Jiannu coalition forces, and mobilize Shanhaiguan and Xuanfu , military reinforcements from Beijing City."

The three of them were silent again. If they stood still, it would mean that Da'ankou and Longjing Pass would be breached, and then Hanerzhuang City, Hongshankou City, Da'ankou City, etc. would be breached.

If the officers and soldiers defending the city resist desperately, it means that these people are bait and will undoubtedly die.

But there is no way around it. Shanhaiguan is less than 400 miles away from Zunhua. If we march urgently, we can definitely reach it within three days.

The distance is too close, which means that the speed of transmitting information is also fast. If the Shanhaiguan army is mobilized and scares Jiannu back, all the previous efforts will be wasted.

But as long as Jiannu attacks Zunhua, the Tengxiang Zuowei hiding in Hongyu Cave can quickly seal off Xifengkou, and the Baigan soldiers stationed in Xinglong Cave can quickly seal off Da'ankou.

With the Royal Thunder Battalion, Palm Thunder, and Bangtian Lei present, there won't be much of a problem until reinforcements arrive.

"How can there be no casualties in a war? After the war, the court will pay for all reconstruction costs, and then compensate the soldiers and civilians who died in the battle."

Sun Chengzong and Yuan Keli were in Liaodong, and they had seen the cruelty of war, while Sun Chuanting was a soldier and a hard-hearted master.

After just a moment of silence, he regained his composure.

"Your Majesty, do you want to mobilize the troops from the three hundred miles surrounding Zunhua City?"

"No need, with the corruption of the Guards Army, you will die if you go!"

Chongzhen shook his head, and then said: "I will give you an explanation. Shanhaiguan and Xuanfu will each mobilize 30,000 sergeants.

The nine guards of the Forbidden Army and the Yanshan Guards have gone to Shaoxing, and the rest are in Beijing. Excluding those who are left behind, they can mobilize one hundred thousand people.

Of Tengxiang's four guards, two more can be mobilized, which totals nearly 20,000 people.

If the Jingying camp asked them to gather together, they could still produce 30,000 people, plus the more than 80,000 people from the Santun camp,

With a total of 300,000 people, and our superiority in firearms, the more than 60,000 Jiannu coalition troops entering the customs will surely die! "

Sun Chengzong and Yuan Keli were shocked when they heard that the strength of the Forbidden Army and Tengxiang Four Guards was beyond their imagination.

Judging from the number of imperial troops and recruitment requirements alone, the imperial power is very consolidated.

"Your Majesty, are there 30,000 people in the capital camp?"

"You can come up with the best, but if you can't, don't blame me for settling the score after the war!"

Chongzhen sneered. The Beijing camp was recruiting more than 100,000 people. There were actually more than 40,000, but only 17,000 belonged to the imperial court. The rest were the servants of the generals. These people were all elites.

His plan is also very simple. This battle must be won, but part of the noble's servants must also be consumed. Otherwise, how can he rectify the noble in the future?

As for cruelty and cold-bloodedness? It doesn't exist. First of all, they are sergeants of the Ming Dynasty. It is their duty to protect their home and country, so there is no way to deliberately let them die.

"Although there are so many troops, the troops in Santunying and Zunhua are not in our hands."

"Your Majesty, you mean there are problems in two places?"

"There is indeed a problem!"

Chongzhen's face was cold: "According to the investigation of Jinyiwei, Zunhua Prefect Jia Weiyao and Qianshi Ma Sigong seem to have defected to Jiannu."

"Deserves to be killed!"

"Shameless!"

The three people cursed angrily, and then Sun Chengzong looked solemn and whispered: "Your Majesty, is there a problem with the commander-in-chief of the Third Tun Camp?"
