"What, you're not happy?" Li Laiheng stared at Jin Fulai and asked inexplicably.
The Ming Dynasty achieved great victory in the war against the Jianlu, and the Koreans should be very happy!
Jin Fulai was shocked when he said this.
He is now colluding with Jianlu, and of course he has something in his heart. In desperation, he quickly pointed to Pyongyang City Road and said, "I was worried just now. How can we destroy this Jianlu army? It seems difficult to fight!"
When Li Laiheng heard this, he didn't doubt anything else. He looked up at the dilapidated Pyongyang City and immediately sneered: "The longer the Jianlu hide in the city, the harder it will be for them to break out. When the fortifications are completed, Just send the Hongyi cannon on the navy warship and blast it!"
This Jianlu army did not have heavy artillery, it could even be said that it did not even have general artillery. If bombarded with artillery, Jianlu would have to be beaten passively.
With that said, he turned his head and looked towards the lower reaches of the Datong River. At this time, he did not see any ships.
The Taedong River is a large river that flows through Pyongyang and eventually flows into the Yellow Sea. The navy can come directly, which is quite convenient. This is also the reason why Li Laiheng chose Pyongyang as the battlefield.
Withdrawing his gaze from the river, Li Laiheng glanced outside Pyongyang again.
There are three to four thousand Korean volunteers who are digging trenches ineffectively. They need to dig deep and wide to completely surround the Jianlu captives, just like they did when they besieged Jinzhou in the 15th year of Chongzhen!
The two thousand cavalry troops led by Gao Yigong were stationed outside Pyongyang City, keeping an eye on the captives in the city to prevent them from rushing out to cause trouble.
On the periphery of the trench was the army camp, where two thousand Ming infantry and three thousand cavalry under Li Guo were resting. The rest of the cavalry naturally followed Li Laiheng here and watched the Korean rebels work.
On the entire battlefield, everything was in order and proceeding according to plan.
Suddenly, Li Laiheng saw Li Guo coming out of the camp, so he just brought his personal guards and told him to come this way.
Seeing this situation, he hurriedly came over and asked with concern: "Father, why don't you take a more rest?"
To besiege Jianlu, we must be careful day and night. Li Guo was on duty last night and came here so early today. It was obvious that he didn't rest long.
After hearing this, Li Guo shook his head with a smile, then stood side by side with Li Laiheng, looked in the direction of Pyongyang City, frowned and said, "It feels a little wrong!"
"What's wrong?" Li Laiheng naturally attached great importance to Li Guo's opinion. After hearing this, he quickly asked.
Jin Fulai, who had followed him, suddenly felt a thump in his heart when he heard this. Uncle Liao Dong's adoptive father was so powerful that he could sense something was wrong? This is impossible, right?
Curious in his heart, he also listened with open ears.
I just heard Li Guo pointing at Pyongyang City and saying: "You think, we suddenly sent out troops, cut off the connection between Jianlu and Liaodong from behind this Jianlu army, killed thousands of them, and finally drove them to Pyongyang City." Inside. Logically speaking, these captives should be very anxious. There are no reinforcements outside and no food and grass inside. They are surrounded by us like this..."
At this point, he pointed to the working Korean volunteers and said: "Look, once the fortifications here are completed, it will be more difficult for the captives in Pyongyang to break out. But why do they But there hasn’t been even a decent breakout in the past few days?”
Hearing this, Jin Fulai quickly defended: "Haven't they already broken through twice and been beaten back by the heavenly soldiers?"
After he finished speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be because of this, and he thought he had really seen something wrong! After I explained it like this, there should be no problem.
But who would have thought that after Li Guo heard what he said, he just turned his head to look at him, then turned back to Li Laiheng and said, "You should understand what I mean!"
Hearing what he said, Li Laiheng immediately understood and felt something was wrong. He immediately nodded and said, "Indeed, although Jianlu seems to have broken through twice, he may feel that it is just a show!"
"No way?" When Jin Fulai heard this, he was a little dumbfounded and couldn't help but said.
Li Laiheng and Li Guo both looked at him, but no one gave him an explanation.
This kind of thing can be felt by veterans like them who have fought many life-and-death battles. The Jianlu in Pyongyang didn't really want to break out at all!
In this case, the problem arises.
Facing an increasingly harsh environment, Jianlu, who is likely to fall into despair, why doesn't he want to really break out?
If we don't break out, the only outcome is either surrender, starvation, or being beaten to death. In short, there will be no other way!
If we were waiting for rescue, we had taken this into consideration when we left Pi Island. Therefore, we attacked Jianlu from behind, cutting off their retreat and not giving them a chance to ask for help.
Even if they sent people to cross the mountains and ridges and run to Liaodong to ask for help, it would definitely be too late to save them!
Thinking like this, Li Laiheng asked Li Guodao with a serious expression: "Father, what do you think these Jianlu have to rely on?"
Li Guo did not answer immediately, but looked at Jianlu's figure on the top of Pyongyang City. After a while, he said: "I just can't figure out why, so I can't sleep!"
If it were an ordinary general, he would never be like this.
However, Li Guona had been rebelling with Li Zicheng since the early years of Chongzhen, and he was weak from the beginning. If he had not been highly vigilant, he would have been killed many times by the imperial army.
Only people like Li Guo can be very keen on the battlefield intuition they have developed over the years.
Jin Fulai on the side was a little frightened when he heard this. In his heart, he had to admire the intuition of these Ming army generals.
These Ming army generals could find something wrong even when he himself couldn't feel it at all. This was so amazing!
Thinking of this, Jin Fulai looked at the backs of Li Guo and Li Laiheng, but sneered secretly: No matter how capable you are, you can't even guess what Jianlu's trump card is this time!
However, when he was thinking this, he saw Li Guo turning to look at Li Laiheng and saying with a serious expression: "If we can survive, we will first consider whether we will fail every time, rather than whether we can win. This time War is too strange, I would rather not win than stay safe!"
As soon as he heard this, Jin Fulai became anxious. Without waiting for Li Laiheng to express his position, he quickly said: "How is this possible? Are they going to let the duck fly? There is a prince of the Qing Dynasty in there!"
Hearing this, Li Laiheng turned to look at him and sneered: "What prince of the Qing Dynasty? That is rebellion, the Ming Dynasty's rebellion!"
Originally, Liaodong was under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty. The Jianlu rebellion was no different from the southwestern chieftain rebellion. There is no problem in saying that Jianlu was rebellious.
Jin Fu came to his senses and quickly echoed: "Yes, yes, it is rebellion, but the commander-in-chief and the villain understand what he means very well. This is a big fish, how can we just let it go?"
To be honest, he never expected that the fish that had already bit the hook could be decoupled?
This is incredible!
At least for Jin Fu, he really couldn't figure it out!
Li Guo saw his reaction and said to him: "Don't worry, after our war this time, although we can't destroy them, they certainly won't dare to burn, kill and loot without any scruples like before. If my estimate is correct, they will definitely flee back to Liaodong."
Judging from what he said, the Ming army still wanted to leave.
Suddenly, Jin Fulai became anxious and said in a much louder voice: "Are you crazy? You can obviously destroy these rebels in the city, but you still want to leave like this?"
After shouting, he suddenly realized that Li Laiheng and Li Guo were staring at him.
Suddenly, Jin Fu came to his senses. What kind of identity did he have that he dared to speak to them like this? Suddenly, he became a little weak and quickly explained: "Commander, please calm down. The villain is just eager for revenge and wants to kill these captives. He is talking nonsense in a moment of urgency."
After he finished speaking, he pretended to hit himself in the mouth quickly, shouting: "Hit your stinky mouth, slap your stinky mouth..."
When Li Laiheng saw this, he didn't think much about it. After all, there was a real blood feud between Jianlu and the Koreans. And this Jin Fulai has always been the leader of the Korean rebels who raised troops to resist the Jianlu.
Seeing Jin Fulai like this, he frowned slightly and said, "That's enough, there's no need to slap, just pay attention!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" After Jin Fulai heard this, he immediately stopped fighting and responded repeatedly.
Li Guo saw him and ignored him. He turned to look at Li Laiheng and said seriously: "You are the coach, you make the decision!"
In the past, when he was the head coach, he could just follow his feelings without saying anything.
But now, he still respects his adopted son and does not use his status as adopted father to pressure Li Laiheng to obey.
After hearing this, Li Laiheng did not answer immediately. He just turned to look at the working Korean volunteers, then at Gao Yigong, and then at Pyongyang City.
Jin Fulai was really scared when he saw this situation, but he must not agree to withdraw his troops!
So, he couldn't help but say again: "If we withdraw like this, maybe Jianlu is playing tricks on us and scares us away. If Jianlu finds out about it afterwards, it will be very embarrassing. It's like... …It’s like Zhuge Kongming used the empty city strategy to drive back the enemy!”
After finishing speaking, he stared at Li Laiheng.
He didn't believe it. At such a young age, Li Laiheng wouldn't care about face? How dare you retreat just because of a guess or an assumption when you have an absolute advantage, can annihilate the enemy, and achieve very significant results?
If this really happened, wouldn't Li Laiheng be afraid that he would never be able to leave the house in the future and would be laughed to death by others?
