“What’s Ben Khan’s idea?”
Huang Taiji put the water bag aside and said slowly: "Can't we choose both paths? Or make a compromise."
Without waiting for anyone to ask, Huang Taiji continued: "Both options have their own advantages and disadvantages. Mr. Yagyu is right. If the Ming army really buries those explosive firearms, we will suffer heavy casualties.
The key thing is that we don't know how many they have, even if we are willing to use the lives of soldiers to consume them, we can't do it.
But what Yagyu-kun said is not entirely correct. The Ming army can bury on the left, right and back, but they cannot bury in the front because they are all under our surveillance.
And they want to move forward. Since the front cannot be buried, then we will attack directly from the front.
We still used carts in front to block the firearms, or used Han people to block the front. Our army followed behind, and the army rushed to kill them one by one.
As long as it is close to 100 meters, at the speed of the cavalry, it can be crossed in two or three breaths. As long as the cavalry can break through a little, we will occupy the home field.
As for being hated by the people after the war, does Ben Khan care?
This Khan will announce that as long as they dare to play tricks behind the scenes, and there is poisoning and so on as you mentioned, this Khan will massacre the city. Millions of people have died, and there are not less than tens of thousands or dozens of people. Ten thousand. "
call……
Listening to Huang Taiji's words, everyone's breath froze instantly.
This is saying the most relaxed words and doing the most ruthless things. A city was massacred at the drop of a hat.
But it's normal. Even his future successor's own son and his own nephew can be ordered to be killed. It doesn't matter if he slaughters an unrelated city.
The eyes of Dajin's generals were full of excitement, and the smiles on their faces were ferocious and bloodthirsty.
Although Fuso's Yasukina Masayuki, Yagyu Munenuki and Mongolia's Tulubaihu Khan had smiles on their faces, they were even more wary of Huang Taiji in their hearts.
The most terrifying thing is when ruthless people control absolute power.
Yagyu Munomi said in a deep voice: "Tian Conghan, you just said you could choose both paths. Now it's just the first step. What about the second step?"
"The second step? Hahaha..."
Huang Taiji chuckled: "If the first step does not go smoothly, then we will retreat directly to Liaoyang and defend according to the method you mentioned."
"Tian Conghan, defend Liaoyang..."
"Listen to what Ben Khan has to say!"
Huang Taiji interrupted Baoshi Masayuki's inquiry and continued: "Didn't you all think about why the water level of the Liao River dropped yesterday?
According to the news I received, the Ming army bombed the mouth of the Liuhe River. The water of the Liuhe River flowed out of the mouth of the river. The water volume of the Liaohe River decreased, and the water level naturally dropped. Do you know what this means? "
"It means that the area of Liaoze will expand!"
Yagyu Munaki responded immediately, his eyes lit up instantly, and he said excitedly: "The dry season of the Liaohe River is from December to March, the normal water season is from April to May, and October to November, and the high water season is from June to September.
It is mid-May now. If we persist for another half month, or at most one month, the Liaohe River will enter the wet season, and the area of Liaoze will definitely expand.
After a severe drought, there must be a severe flood. Last year, there was a severe drought in Liaodong. This year, there is likely to be heavy rain.
As long as they hold on for a few months, if there is a heavy rain, Liaoze is likely to flood the entire passage from Jinzhou to Panjin, and their supply and reinforcement channels will be cut off.
There are more than 300,000 people, and the average person is three kilograms a day, which is 360,000 shi in two months. The food reserves in Liaoyang City are sufficient. What we have to do is to harass the medium opportunities. "
"Yagyu-kun is indeed a master of the art of war!"
Huang Taiji praised him. Although his face was full of smiles, the killing intent flashed in his eyes.
This kind of future enemy, and knowing Daikin's strength, it is better to find an opportunity to kill him.
"Do you agree with Ben Khan's idea?"
"feasible!"
"Seconded!"
"agree!"
…
The senior generals of Fuso and Mongolia directly agreed. This was the best plan.
"Since everyone agrees, let's give the order to withdraw the troops. We must retreat to the south of Taizi River before Unity Time tonight and rely on Taizi River to defend."
"Tian Conghan, of course there is no problem in withdrawing the troops, but what about the battlefield? How to deal with the bodies of our sergeants?"
"No matter, if we go to clean it, the Ming army may sneak attack. Besides, what can we do if we go to clean it? We can either bury it or burn it. We can't take it with us.
Carrying more than 70,000 corpses will definitely slow down our marching speed. It is unrealistic to bury them on the spot. Let's just leave them to the Ming army. If they don't deal with them, they will wait for the plague to appear.
It’s all handled anyway, so why should we do it ourselves? "
Huang Taiji's words were casual and indifferent.
Everyone's expressions were ugly, but it had to be said that Huang Taiji's handling method was the most correct.
It can block the enemy's pursuit and save them a lot of trouble.
From this alone, we can see Huang Taiji's cold-bloodedness.
"Send orders to withdraw troops, appease all ministries, and be ready to attack at all times!"
A moment later, a low horn sound sounded in the camp of the Jiannu Allied Forces. All units retreated in order, with the infantry and heavy cavalry retreating first, followed by the carriages and 20,000 light cavalry.
Yuan Keli knew about the movement in the slave camp within half a stick of incense.
After hesitating for a moment, Yuan Keli entered the tent, but the scene inside the tent made him a little stunned.
He thought the emperor was struggling, but when he came in, he found that the emperor was drinking tea and eating snacks first, as if the problem just now had not arisen. Could it be that the emperor already had a solution?
Seeing that Yuan Keli was a little dazed, Chongzhen said softly: "Yuan Aiqing, is there any movement in Jiannu?"
"Your Majesty, according to the information sent back from the surveillance on the other side, the slave-building coalition forces have begun to retreat, and no one has been sent to clean up the battlefield!"
"oh?"
Chongzhen's eyes showed surprise: "Huang Taiji's reaction was quite quick, and his calculation was quite good, but he didn't know whether to retreat to Hunhe River, Taizi River, or Liaoyang."
"Yuan Aiqing, what are you going to do next?"
"wait!"
Yuan Keli gave a countermeasure without any hesitation: "The withdrawal of the Jiannu coalition forces is most likely to retreat to Taizi River, wait for an opportunity to attack, and then retreat to Liaoyang if the attack is frustrated. Otherwise, once we directly retreat to Liaoyang, we can directly besiege the city. Huang Taiji is not stupid.
Whether we retreat to Taizi River or Liaoyang, the ultimate goal is to consume us.
Since we don't know their final movements yet, let's wait a moment. They have chariots and cavalry behind them, and they can't get past them in a short time without exposing their flying thunder cannons and red cannons.
The effect of our pursuit is not very great. We will take countermeasures after they are done. "
"Yuan Aiqing's idea is in my favor! But what I'm waiting for is not the movement to build slaves!"
Chongzhen nodded, picked up a piece of paper from the desk and handed it over: "This is urgently sent from the capital six hundred miles away!"
