At the same time, Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Baoding in Lushun, had also received news that Jianlu troops had arrived.
After all, it is not easy for the Tatars in Jinzhou to spy on Lushun, but the Ming army wants to keep an eye on the situation in Jinzhou. If they just observe from a distance, it is impossible to hide the news of the coming army. .
Lu Xiangsheng also held a military meeting and reported the situation. Then, he said solemnly: "The vanguard of Jianlu has arrived, and I believe its main force is not far from Jinzhou. Whether our army can stand in Lushun, the next step is the key. Generals must work hard to defend Lushun together!"
"I will obey the Governor's military order!" Upon hearing this, many soldiers in the hall immediately stood up and shouted in response, cupping their fists.
It can be heard from their responses that they are very confident.
After Lu Xiangsheng nodded, he looked at Navy Chief Zheng Zhilong and asked, "The Emperor has reminded you before that the North Korean Navy is likely to participate in this battle. Are you sure?"
To be honest, although Lu Xiangsheng was good at both civil and military affairs, naval battles were too different from wars on land. Therefore, although he had an idea, he still had to ask the navy commander before the battle.
When Zheng Zhilong heard this, he immediately smiled contemptuously, but he immediately realized that this was in front of the Governor-General, so he quickly turned serious, clasped his fists and replied: "Back to the Governor-General, when I was in Fujian, I had fought with North Korea, The Japanese have all dealt with each other. As far as the Korean Navy is concerned, the military is so corrupt that it cannot be called a navy at all. It is just a private fleet of its naval generals and North Korean and Chinese officials. The general estimates that the Korean Navy is now The total number of large and small warships in the division will not exceed 300. Counting the thirty or so warships in the hands of the traitor general Shang Kexi, the total number is almost the same as our army."
At this point, he raised his voice a little and continued in a very confident tone: "If the general dares to use his head as a guarantee, his entire army will be annihilated in one battle!"
The warships he brought from Fujian are now all in place. There are also about 300 ships. In addition, he has seen the naval battle level of the Jinzhou rebels before. Therefore, although he usually cares about his words and deeds, he can This time, he dared to speak his mind.
Hearing such a confident answer from this veteran, Lu Xiangsheng was very satisfied. He nodded and looked at Li Guo and said, "Next, it's your turn. Jianlu will definitely send scouting horses to spy on the military situation before its main force arrives. If anyone comes, If there are not many, we will annihilate them all and give them a show of strength; if the Jianlu are probing too many horses, we will give up the perimeter and withdraw. There is only one condition, we cannot let the Jianlu know the true and false strength of our army, especially the situation of the navy, understand. What?"
When Li Guo heard this, he immediately responded loudly and clasped his fists: "I will obey your orders!"
Of course he knew that the key to this war was not on land, but on the sea. If the strength of Zheng Zhilong's navy was exposed too early, Jianlu would not rush in.
At this time, Lu Xiangsheng still believed in Li Guo's ability. After hearing his reply, he glanced at the others and said in a deep voice: "The emperor is very concerned about this battle, and he has explained it in advance and provided a lot of suggestions. Now, I, the Ming Dynasty, from the emperor to the officers and men, are united as one. In this battle, I will live and die with Lushun here, and advance and retreat with the generals! In this battle, the Ming Dynasty will win!"
"The Ming Dynasty will win!" All the generals in the hall were full of morale and responded in unison again.
When did the Ming army go to war with the full support of the emperor, and have frontier officials at the governor level sit on the front lines?
With such confidence, no matter how powerful the enemy is, what is there to fear?
Not long after, Lu Xiangsheng stood on the top of the city, watching Li Guo lead his men out of the city and go to ambush in the mountains and forests. Then, looking back, he couldn't help but look at this new type of Lushun City again, and he couldn't help but admire it in his heart. I really don’t know how the emperor knew these things. Could it be that Taizu really became a military genius after having a dream?
However, it seems that Taizu did not have the profound knowledge that the emperor has now, right?
Early the next morning, just as Lu Xiangsheng expected, Jinzhou sent another detective horse. Li Guo received the warning and immediately warned his men to be on alert and prepare for a hard battle.
However, what Li Guo didn't expect was that although it was obvious that there were real Tatars among the criminal Tatars. However, these Tatars still made the same mistakes as the previous Tatars. Although they were cautious, they still seemed not used to the Ming army's methods and were a bit unfamiliar.
The hard fight he originally thought of did not happen at all. Seeing that the Tatars left a lot of corpses and hurriedly exited the mountains and fled back to Jinzhou, Li Guo was really puzzled. Didn't the previous fake Tatars remind these real Tatars where to watch out for ambushes, what methods the Ming army had, etc. Didn't they tell them?
You know, no matter what, the fake Tatars in Jinzhou and the Ming army have been fighting for so long, and they are more or less familiar with each other's methods. Some things can be avoided if we attack again. However, the real Tatars who invaded this time still made mistakes, and the price they paid was often leaving a few corpses behind!
"Could it be that those fake Tatars in Jinzhou still have their hearts towards the Ming Dynasty?" Li Guo couldn't help but said to himself.
As soon as he said this, he immediately denied it. If that were the case, I wouldn't have committed the crime again and again, and that would be life-threatening! In this case, there is only one reason, and that is the discord between the Jianzhou Jurchens and those fake Tatars.
Don't worry, the facts are pretty much what Li Guo guessed. The main reason is that the Tatar army led by Hauge, so-called deeds and deeds, Hauge looked down on Shang Kexi. How could the Jianzhou Jurchens under him think highly of these surrendered Han dogs. Therefore, in words, just as their master was arrogant towards Shang Kexi, he also despised the false Tatar's Tan Ma.
In this way, even if these fake Tatars originally wanted to remind these Tatars of Tanma, no one would think of reminding them anymore. Just keep it in mind, watch their jokes, teach these Tatars a lesson with facts, and show some respect later, you will not be any better!
So, Hauge was in the arrow tower at the top of Jinzhou City, just like Shang Kexi, waiting for Tan Ma to report the good news. One difference is that Shang Kexi was very serious at first, while Hauge was much more relaxed and confident.
This made Shang Kexi, who was always following his orders, feel a little uncomfortable. But there is no way, under the roof of others, there is no way not to bow your head. Besides, his men's scouts are really incompetent. After so long, they can't even find out basic military information on the battlefield.
At this time, he really believed that the detective horse sent by Hauge would definitely be able to catch him alive. After all, those are the real elites of the Qing Dynasty!
So, with this mentality, the detective horses sent out came back earlier than they expected.
The result that Hauge waited for, and what Monk Kexi knew about the situation, were basically the same: "Master, those Ming troops are indeed Ming Qin soldiers, and they have the same accent as the Qin soldiers who fought in the pass last time."
Apart from that, I don't know anything else.
When Hauge heard this, he grabbed the tea cup and threw it over on the spot. Haikou boasted, but he didn't expect it to turn out to be a boast. This was such a slap in the face!
In his state of mind, even when he saw Shang Kexi's expressionless face, he felt that this dog slave must be laughing in his heart, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't like it.
So, he became a little angry and immediately ordered Shang Kexi: "You go back immediately to reorganize the army. Early tomorrow morning, be the vanguard of our troops and attack Lushun!"
Even if the Ming army did not hide in the woods at night and stabbed people with hidden arrows, so what? Since we can't spy on the military situation, we can just use our strength to crush them.
When Shang Kexi heard this, he was immediately startled and hurriedly advised: "Your Highness, no!"
"Huh?" When Hauge heard this, he immediately felt unhappy. He thought to himself that this dog slave was really laughing at him in his heart. He even opposed his own military order. So, after snorting again, he shouted at Shang Kexi fiercely. , "Why, you want to disobey the military order, don't you think that I dare not kill you, King Zhishun? Our Qing army has strict discipline, do you want to test how hard your neck is?"
When Ban Zhifu and Xu Erxian heard this, their expressions suddenly changed, and they quickly approached Shang Kexi. If they really wanted to take action later, they seemed to want to protect their general.
However, the person involved, Shang Kexi himself, was not so panicked. He just lowered his head and replied: "Your Highness misunderstood. I think that if we attack rashly now, we may scare away the Ming army in Lushun. In this way, there will be It goes against the emperor's original intention. The villain is afraid that His Highness will do this. He cannot annihilate the Ming Dynasty. The key is that the Emperor will have an impression of His Highness being reckless. That would be bad!"
Hearing this, Hauge barely held back his temper that was about to explode. Although he actually knew in his heart that he already had the impression of being reckless in his father's mind, but if possible, he did not want to remind his father again, feeling that his reckless temper had not changed.
This means that Hauge is not stupid. He immediately shouted in a cold voice: "Don't you still have more than thirty warships under your command, which is twice as many as the Ming army's warships? As long as you cut off the Ming army's retreat at sea, how can the Ming army escape?"
Hearing this, a thought flashed in Shang Kexi's mind, and he replied: "Your Highness, the situation on the sea is unpredictable. The villain only has more than ten warships than the Ming Navy. This is not appropriate. In case the Ming Army What should we do if new warships are added during this period? Also, if the waves are too big, the wind direction changes, etc., these will affect the navy's combat effectiveness and offset the advantage of the Qing Dynasty Navy over the Ming Navy... …”
He bullied Hauge for not understanding naval warfare, and began to describe the unreliability of naval warfare endlessly. Anyway, he was talking about things that were difficult for Hauge to understand. He wanted Hauge to know that it was just not convenient for the navy to go to war with its current combat strength. Otherwise, if he really did what Hauge wanted, if something went wrong, he wouldn't be able to bear the consequences. At least he felt that King Zhishun might be gone. Of course he didn't want to do this.
Listening to his endless chatter, Hauge became impatient and interrupted sharply: "Is it possible that according to what you said, there will be no fighting in Lushun?"
"No!" Shang Ke was delighted when he heard this, and quickly replied, "The emperor has set a deadline for the North Korean Navy to come to the rescue. According to what the last general pointed out, the North Korean Navy has at least two hundred warships. As long as the North Korean Navy has one Then, under the command of the villain, they can crush it. If the villain dares to use the head on his neck as a guarantee, then the Ming army will have absolutely no way to escape by sea!"
After hearing this, Hauge was still a little reluctant, because if he waited any longer, the main force of the Qing Dynasty would arrive. When the time comes, the credit for conquering Lushun this time will be shared!
However, Daishan seemed to know what Hauge's temper was like. At this moment, he sent a messenger to arrive and warned Hauge not to act rashly.
Hauge can despise Shang Kexi, King Zhishun, and treat him not as a human being, but as a dog of his family. However, facing the veteran Daishan, he would not dare to call him uncle this time as the coach. Don't mess around again. As he himself said just now, the Manchu Qing's military discipline was still very strict at this time. Even if he is Huang Taiji's son, if he really breaks the military law, even Huang Taiji will not let him go.
For this reason, when he was in the pass, when he was about to capture Jiajiazhuang and kill Lu Xiangsheng, he had to accept Dorgon's military order to retreat.
Two days later, the main force of the Manchu Qing Dynasty arrived. It's so vast that it's almost endless.
People inside and outside Jinzhou City were shouting and neighing, and it suddenly became very lively.
Compared to Hauge, Daishan can still restrain his preferences. He did not let the army enter the city and drive the Han army out. He led the army and camped outside the city.
However, when he heard that Tan Ma was unable to find out the basic military information of the Lushun Ming Army, he was still angry.
This time, he had no scruples and immediately sent out a large number of exploring horses. After all, he arrived with a large army, and the Ming army in Lushun must have learned the news.
To Monk Hauge's surprise, this time, there was no large-scale fighting between Tanma, and the Ming army retreated without stopping at night.
As a result, the Manchu and Qing explorers finally arrived near Lushun City for the first time, and when they saw Lushun City, they couldn't help but be stunned. Because they had never seen such a city before.
So, he immediately drew a sketch and flew to Jinzhou.
When Dang Shan saw this sketch of Lushun City, he was also very surprised. He asked everyone in the army, even Han generals such as Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming, but no one knew why Lushun City was like this.
In this regard, Daishan could only come to the conclusion that the Ming army had no time to complete the construction of Lushun City. Therefore, not only was the city wall so short, but it also created such an ugly and strange city.
But there was another point that surprised him. Because according to the report from the detective horse, the flag in Lushun City was Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Baoding in the Ming Dynasty!
"This time, we won't let Lu Xiangsheng go!" Hauge, out of surprise, immediately expressed his stance loudly.
Last time, he almost chopped off Lu Xiangsheng's head. Unexpectedly, now that he had such an opportunity, he naturally couldn't let it go.
While they were talking, someone came from outside to report that Turg and the North Korean navy had arrived in Jinzhou together.
