Chapter five hundred and fifty third withdrawal
Just as everyone was thinking about it, an urgent report suddenly reached their ears. Then, a few people saw a cavalry, whose horse speed was not reduced and they rushed towards everyone's direction.
I rushed to less than ten steps away from everyone before I quickly stopped.
Then, with the exhausted cavalry, he moved off his war horses and walked to Huang Taiji in three steps in two steps. He knelt on the ground with one leg and reported loudly: "Shank you, the front line reported urgently... The 20,000 Korean troops invaded Liaodong were completely destroyed a day ago under the front and back attack of the Tiger and Leopard Army..."
"The 20,000 army is gone... You are not mistaken... As far as I know, the Tiger and Leopard Army reinforcements from Chaoyang arrived at the battlefield yesterday. Based on this time, the Tiger and Leopard Army, which had a force of only six or seven thousand, destroyed the 20,000 troops that North Korea invaded Liaodong in just a few hours." Huang Taiji asked back with an incredible face.
Under Huang Taiji's clever eyes, the scout quickly spoke up and said, "King, everything I just said is true, and I dare not make any false statements... As far as we know about the investigation, it only took an hour for the six thousand tiger and leopard army infantry and cavalry to destroy the Korean army."
"Destroy 20,000 Korean troops in one hour... How did the 6,000 Tiger and Leopard Army do it? You must know that this is the 20,000 Korean troops holding weapons, not 20,000 pigs. Besides, even if it is 20,000 pigs, the 6,000 Tiger and Leopard Army cannot catch them all in just one hour..." At this time, the shocked expression on Huang Taiji's face became even stronger, and he continued to ask back.
Facing the scout who looked at him at the same time, kneeling on the ground with one leg, he did not dare to be negligent. He quickly told him everything he saw on the battlefield.
After that, the shocked expression on Huang Taiji's face was directly covered by contempt.
Yes, it is contempt, the contempt of the combat effectiveness of the 20,000 Korean troops.
As the Khan of the Later Jin Dynasty, Huang Taiji failed to calculate it even though he had no choice. The combat effectiveness of the 20,000 Korean troops was so unbearable.
After a battle, more than 10,000 Korean troops became prisoners of the Tiger and Leopard Army. Not only that, dozens of intermediate and above officers in the 20,000 Korean troops were so timid that they all abandoned their troops and fled in the last battle.
At this moment, the scout who knelt in front of everyone continued to speak: "Khan, I have another important information to report here...
"After the six thousand tiger and leopard army infantry and cavalry wiped out 20,000 Korean troops, after only two hours of rest, they struggled with 10,000 infantry and cavalry and rushed towards the direction where Liaoyang was."
"Because this Tiger and Leopard Army has at least 3,000 cavalry, in order to avoid alarming the snakes, the slaves dare not approach and conduct reconnaissance. However, with the help of monocular telescopes, the slaves can be sure that in addition to having at least 3,000 cavalry, this Tiger and Leopard Army rushing to Liaoyang has at least 50 heavy artillery."
As soon as the scout finished speaking, a general under Huang Taiji shouted: "Our Later Jin warriors are not Korean troops with low combat effectiveness... As long as these tiger and leopard troops arrive, we will have the strength to make them come and go."
"Yes, there is no return... Kill all the tiger and leopard troops who came to Liaoyang, let them taste the strong combat power of our Later Jin cavalry on the field battlefield, and never dare to underestimate our Later Jin warriors." The other Tartar generals followed and echoed.
After that, everyone focused their attention on Huang Taiji and waited for Huang Taiji to make the final decision.
At this time, Fan Wencheng, who was standing next to Huang Taiji, spoke and reminded with a worried look: "Da Khan, I think the courage of all the generals is commendable, and I am worthy of the warriors promoted by Dahan. However, what I want to say is that although it is good to have courage, we cannot underestimate the combat effectiveness of this Tiger and Leopard Army..."
"If this Tiger and Leopard Army was a pure cavalry unit, I believe that the powerful combat power of the Jin Iron Cavalry in the future will definitely be able to eliminate them on the field battlefield..."
"However, this Tiger and Leopard Army is not a pure cavalry unit... It not only has the vast majority of musketeers, but also is equipped with at least fifty heavy artillery with a power far exceeding the red cannon..."
"Even if we can eliminate them on the field battlefield, our cavalry of the Later Jin Kingdom will pay a very heavy price on the battlefield. Therefore, the slave asked the Khan to think twice before acting for the future of the Later Jin Kingdom, and don't forget the purpose of our decision to march into Liaodong..."
Just as Huang Taiji slowly showed a thoughtful expression on his face, another scout hurried over.
However, the scout did not say a word, but handed a letter to Fan Wencheng.
After reading the content in the envelope, the worried expression on Fan Wencheng's face was already covered with heavy unknowingly.
After taking a deep breath, he said to Huang Taiji in a heavy tone: "Khan, it's not whether we want to wipe out this Tiger and Leopard Army heading to Liaoyang now. Instead, we don't have the time and opportunity to destroy this Tiger and Leopard Army."
"This is the news that my secret spies from the Later Jin Kingdom just sent back from Shandong... Wei Zheng, the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Army, personally led the 25,000 elite Tiger and Leopard Army, has already set out from Shandong and will be able to land in Liaodong for two days at most."
"It is clear in the intelligence that the more than 20,000 elite Tiger and Leopard Army soldiers not only include two musket divisions, one cavalry division, but also two hundred heavy artillery pieces..."
"Once this Tiger and Leopard Army reinforcement unit enters Liaodong and joins forces with the remaining Tiger and Leopard Army in Liaodong, then we, who have become lonely in the entire Liaodong area, will become very dangerous. After all, the combat effectiveness of the Tiger and Leopard Army is there, which is essentially different from the official army of the Ming Dynasty."
As soon as Fan Wencheng finished speaking, Huang Taiji, who was frowning, took the information and began to browse.
After reading it, the thoughtful expression that just appeared on my face was already covered with heavy weight without realizing it.
After turning his gaze to Fan Wencheng again, he asked with a worry-faced look: "Military advisor, what do you think?"
A crucial reason why a Han man who could only be called a slave in the eyes of the Tatars had such a status in the Later Jin Kingdom was: Huang Taiji, the Great Khan of the Later Jin Dynasty, had a trust and support for himself.
Therefore, whether it is to preserve his status and glory and wealth in the Jin Dynasty, or to Huang Taiji around him, Fan Wencheng will do his best to help Huang Taiji.
So Fan Wencheng, who had a heavy face, said directly: "Shan, I think it's time for us to retreat..."
"We can get the news that the Tiger and Leopard Army reinforcements are about to land in Liaodong, and the 10,000 Tiger and Leopard Army infantry and cavalry who are rushing to Liaoyang can also get the news. Since that is the case, the purpose of this Tiger and Leopard Army infantry and cavalry to rush to Liaoyang is worth our careful consideration and consideration..."
"What do you mean?" Huang Taiji asked subconsciously.
"I am worried that in addition to the purpose of reinforcement of Liaoyang, this Tiger and Leopard Army infantry cavalry also has a very important and very fatal purpose, which is to drag us to Liaoyang..."
"If this conjecture of the slave is true, we are also successfully dragged in Liaoyang by this Tiger and Leopard Army. Then we will be surrounded by almost 40,000 elite Tiger and Leopard Army..."
"In this case, the slave dare not imagine what will be the ending waiting for us?"
As soon as Fan Wencheng finished speaking, a Tartar general who was very dissatisfied with Fan Wencheng retorted loudly: "Fan Wencheng, what do you want to do, exaggerate and demagogue the morale of the army?"
"In my opinion, this infantry cavalry of the Tiger and Leopard Army who were rushing to Liaoyang will not only not drag us here, but will also be destroyed by us..."
"Not only that, the reinforcements of the Tiger and Leopard Army that are about to land in Liaodong will also be eliminated by us in Liaoyang..."
"If you dog slaves are sensational here again, I will chop you into meat paste and feed it to the wolf..."
"Shut up..." Huang Taiji, who was unable to face the increasingly ugly and arrogant words, finally spoke.
