It was said that it was supported, but in fact it was carried. He Kegang only climbed up the city wall with Dou Mingde's back.
After going up, I found that dozens of generals had already arrived on the city wall. Everyone had excitement on their faces. They pointed to the east and whispered to each other without knowing what they were talking about. Through the crowd, I could see Zu Dashou excitedly chatting with Liu Tianlu and Zhang Cunren.
Drawing with a hand pen.
Zu Dacheng saw He Kegang coming and hurriedly greeted him: "General He, you are here too!"
"General He!"[
Cao Gongcheng, Han Daxun, Zhang Dingliao, Gao Guanghui and other generals all gave way to He Kegang. He Kegang had a high prestige in the army, and even the direct family members of Zu Dashou respected him very much.
But He Kegang did not greet the generals, but walked silently through them. This was not because he did not have enough friendship with these generals, but the red light on the generals' faces gave him a shuddering feeling. He really did not want to interact with them.
Say one more thing.
"Uncle He, father is about to send someone to call you." Zu Zerun also respected He Kegang very much. Seeing that He Kegang was unsteady, he stepped forward to help him.
However, He Kegang signaled to Zu Zerun that he did not need to help him. He settled there for a moment, took a breath and walked straight behind Zu Dashou and others, calling in a low voice: "Zu Shuai."
Hearing He Kegang's voice, Zu Dashou hurriedly turned around and saw that he was very weak and seemed unable to stand up. He couldn't help but feel distressed and stepped forward to support him. He sighed first and then said excitedly:
"You came just in time. I was about to send someone to find you. Come and see, what is that?" After saying that, he stretched out his right hand and pointed towards the east.
He Kegang looked around suspiciously and saw smoke and dust billowing to the east. He could faintly hear the shouts of killing, and when he looked carefully, he saw a Ming army's banner fluttering in the wind, and Jin soldiers rushing westward one after another.
This is?
He Kegang was startled for a moment, and then said excitedly: "Commander Zu, the reinforcements have arrived!"
Zu Dashou nodded, feeling a little excited. He couldn't help but smile. He rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "After waiting for so many days, the reinforcements have finally arrived. If the reinforcements don't come, you and I will really be buried in the Daling River."
! Fortunately, the emperor and the governor have not forgotten us. Look at the reinforcements, they are probably no less than tens of thousands. The imperial court has really spent a lot of money this time! The emperor's kindness is so great! Ke Gang, if you stay in the city, I will take the lead.
When the army leaves the city, and the reinforcements attack from behind, we must kill him and make him a slave, to vent the grievances we have suffered these days!"
"Commander Zu, don't worry. As long as I, He Kegang, are here, this city cannot be lost." The arrival of the reinforcements made He Kegang feel more confident, and his voice became full of confidence.
Liu Tianlu and Zhang Cunren were also cheered by everyone. This reinforcement was as exciting and jubilant as the rain after a long drought!
There is hope, there is hope in Daling River!
The news of the arrival of reinforcements spread from the top of the city to the whole city in an instant. There were cheering soldiers everywhere above and below the city.
The common people and civil servants who were not eaten also covered their faces and cried bitterly. It was really painful for them to wait for the reinforcements.
God bless, God bless!
…………
Zu Dashou was eager to leave the city to receive reinforcements. He immediately ordered Liu Tianlu, Zhang Cunren, Han Daxun, Zhang Daliao and other generals to gather their troops below the city, use three cannon blasts as a signal, and rush out of the city in one go.
The armies eager to survive gathered quickly. Six thousand elite soldiers from Liaodong who made a living by cannibalism rushed to the south gate within half a stick of incense. After hearing three cannon shots, they immediately opened the city gate and fought towards the east.
.
In this battle, the soldiers worked hard and everyone dared to fight. Even if they filled up the trenches where slaves were built with corpses, they would also join the reinforcements.[
On a high hill a few miles away, Huang Taiji, who had been staring closely at the city gate, laughed loudly: "Zu Dashou fell into the trap!" His face was full of pride.
The reinforcements that were shouting for death were not reinforcements, but a trap set by Huang Taiji to trick Zu Dashou out of the city. He ordered his generals Ashan and his consort Darhan to lead 6,000 troops, pretending to be a rescue Ming army, and marched from west to east.
Later, he ordered Dorgon, Tu Lai, Yang Guli and others to lead 4,000 troops to meet the enemy. In order to convince Zu Dashou that reinforcements had arrived, he spared no expense and ordered the artillery battalion of Han army flags to move toward an open space.
The cannon was fired with such a great momentum.
Sure enough, Zu Dashou fell into the trap. As long as he lured the trapped beast out of the city, Huang Taiji was sure to capture him alive outside the city!
The information that Zhang Chun's 40,000 troops from the Ming Dynasty came to aid Jinzhou has been ascertained through careful investigation. After a bloody battle by the Xiaoling River, Huang Taiji affirmed the combat power of this Ming army. He knew that the opponent would definitely come to aid his ancestors again, so he was afraid
At that time, Zu Dashou came out of the city and cooperated inside and outside, which caused unnecessary casualties to the Eight Banners soldiers and made the chance of winning the battle unpredictable. At the suggestion of Fan Wencheng, Ning Wanwo and others, Huang Taiji personally directed this scene
A good show of reinforcements arriving.
Now that the fish has been hooked, the next step is to set up firewood, prepare seasonings, and cook a bowl of fish soup!
Feeling proud, he turned around and told Mang Gurtai: "Third brother, Zu Dashou has left the city. You immediately lead the Zhenglan Banner soldiers to cut off their retreat. I will lead the two Yellow Banners to join Dorgon, Darhan and the others. You and my brothers are behind us."
Attack his ancestor Dashou from both sides, let’s see where his ancestor Dashou runs this time, haha!”
Unexpectedly, after the order was given, Mang Gurtai did not respond. Huang Taiji thought that the third brother did not hear it, so he said again: "Third brother, you lead the Zhenglan Banner to cover the Ming army's rear formation and intercept their return.
The city’s retreat route.”
This time, Mang Gurtai responded, but the words that came out of his mouth surprised Huang Taiji. He only heard him say, "King Khan, you have beaten half of my Zhenglan Banner before.
In the past few days, I blocked the Ming army by the Xiaoling River and suffered too many casualties. Lausa also died in the battle. At this time, I, Zhenglan Banner, have no ability to send more troops. At most, there are only three or five Niulu, and I'm afraid it won't be able to help. Khan.
Why don't the king call his men and horses under his banner to fight."
Huang Taiji was dissatisfied, knowing that Mang Gurtai wanted to preserve his strength, but the war was imminent, and each flag had garrison tasks. Azig's red flag was monitoring the direction of Jinzhou at Jimingyi, and he could not spare any extra money at this time.
When the soldiers and horses entered the battle, they had to point to the Zhenglan Banner to cut off the retreat of Zu Dashou, so he comforted Mang Gurtai and said: "There are casualties under Third Brother's banner. I also know that I will just supplement Third Brother after the war."
Today, Third Brother, you should lead the troops and horses to fight. If it doesn’t work, I will give you two hundred troops to protect you."
Who would have thought that as soon as he finished speaking, Mang Gurtai said dissatisfiedly: "King Khan wants me to send troops to the Zhenglan Banner. Does he want me to fight all the Zhenglan Banners?"
As soon as these words came out, Daishan, Jierhalang, Abatai, Dudu and others on the side were all startled. They looked at Mang Gurtai in disbelief, wondering why he suddenly said such a stupid thing.
That’s right!
Mang Gurtai's younger brother Degerei was even more panicked and looked at his half-brother in shock.
No matter how much Huang Taiji could bear it, he couldn't bear it at this time. What Mang Gurtai said was not what a minister should say! In anger, his face changed suddenly, he pointed angrily at Mang Gurtai, and angrily said: "No wonder someone
It is said that every time Zheng Lanqi sends out orders, there are always mistakes, and it turns out that the root cause lies with you!"
