Of course he was still angry, and every time the wound hurt, he felt itching with hatred, anger, humiliation, and various emotions intertwined with each other, making the evil thoughts in his heart more intense, but he still maintained a trace of rationality.
The only remaining rationality told him that the angrier he was, the more likely it would be to cause trouble, so he always reminded himself to be cautious, cautious, more cautious, careful, careful, and more careful!
He has ordered Songshan soldiers and horses to wait for orders, and when Jinzhou is ready, he will attack with all his strength.
What to prepare is all kinds of food, fodder, and luggage.
His target this time is not only Tashan Fort, but also the Ming army in Ningyuan!
He wanted to plot with Ning Yuan, and this time he wanted to give the Ming army a severe blow, so that Ning Yuan would not dare to take a step further north! Although it could not be solved once and for all, it would at least give him more than half a year to breathe, and it would also make him
If Shenyang keeps quiet and doesn't dare to push too hard, North Korea can obediently release Duduo.
The only thing he has now is to be fully prepared and act cautiously.
As for the tactics, they are naturally the same as before, simple, crude and effective.
There are no three axes, just one move!
One fresh trick and you can eat it all over the world!
Of course, he also wanted to strike first and break Tashan Fort before Ningyuan reinforcements arrived, and he was not afraid even if Ming reinforcements arrived.
As for why he took action immediately, it was not because he was not in a hurry, but because he really wanted stability.
Firstly, he had to be fully prepared. Secondly, he determined that the Ming army would not take the initiative to attack. Without reinforcements, what could he do if he relied on the thousands of people in Tashan? Even if reinforcements arrived, they would only think about how to defend. There is no reason.
They even delivered it to their door, not to mention that they were fully prepared to come from Ningyuan in such a short period of time. And I was close to Chi Chi and could approach the city at any time, so no matter what, I could be one step ahead of them!
That being the case, why rush? Take it slow and steady!
However, because preparations have been made before, the follow-up preparations will not take too long. The Songshan front line has been sharpened. It only takes a day or two at most for Jinzhou to dispatch troops and generals, and then they can attack Tashan with all their strength. Dorgon
I firmly believe that reinforcements from Ningyuan will never come in the next two days, and even if they do come, they will be in place in a hurry!
It was getting late at night, and the originally silent Tashan Fort suddenly became noisy. Many soldiers were woken up in their sleep, making them think that there was a war when the enemy was attacking, which caused a panic.
However, he was told to go out of the city and dig trenches with the guy!
There are nearly 4,000 soldiers in the fort, and 2,000 were sent out. In addition to carrying weapons, there are also various agricultural tools, such as shovels, pickaxes, etc. There is no shortage of these guys in the fort. Repairs began more than a year ago.
Preparations began one after another when Tashan Fort was built, and gradually accumulated during the subsequent construction of forts, fortifications, and trench digging, becoming an important part of military supplies.
During the previous construction of Tashan Fort, several trenches had been dug around it to prevent Tatar attacks, but this time it was different. It was naturally a big project to send out an army late at night.
The trench was excavated twelve miles north of Tashan. This place was less than ten miles away from Xingshan. Why was it necessary to dig at such a long distance? First, to leave a buffer distance, and second, to leave a place for the army to camp!
The requirements for the trench are also very simple, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, two to three meters wide, and more than one meter deep. As for the length, there is no limit. Excavate from east to west, dig as long as you can!
At that time, tens of thousands of Tatar troops dug day and night from the Daughter River in the west to the sea in the east!
Now Chang Yu does not expect two thousand people to do the work of tens of thousands, and for him, this trench is only an auxiliary, not the core of this war!
Hey, it's snowing
As soon as the two thousand soldiers went out, someone shouted. Zukefa raised his head and stretched out his hand. Sure enough, he saw snowflakes falling, and he felt happy. Although some soldiers felt that digging trenches in the cold weather was hard enough, this suddenly happened again.
Isn't it snowing to make things worse?
But for generals, this is a great good thing!
First, the snow will arrive as scheduled, which will definitely delay the Tatars from sending troops. Second, although working in the snow late at night is hard, it is also safer. The Tatar reconnaissance cavalry will not come over, and the chance of sending troops is
It will also be reduced a lot.
"It's off, it's off, Mr. Governor, it's off..." Li Muchian pushed open the door and entered with an excited face. Chang Yu, who was flipping a book by the stove in the corner, turned to look outside the door. There was snow falling under the light,
Then he smiled calmly: "The Taoist Master is very stable now."
Li Muxian rubbed his hands in excitement: "It's just my preference. The previous snow was ankle-deep. If it snows for another three days, it will at least be knee-deep. It will definitely stop the Tatars for several days..."
Chang Yu hummed: "Looking at the high spirits of the Taoist priest, I thought he was doing it for the position of national master. It turns out that he is concerned about the war, which makes us admire him very much."
"Hey, how can I be such a superficial person?" Li Muxian said seriously: "Now that the world has not been pacified, the Tatars have not been destroyed..."
"That puts our family at ease." Chang Yu sighed and interrupted him: "After thinking about it just now, Song Chaoyi is more suitable for the position of national master, but I don't know how to talk to the Taoist priest..."
"Master Du Gong, please don't..." Li Muxian's knees softened and he almost knelt down. He said with a mournful face: "I am a poor man, I am a poor man..."
"It's really happened." Li Guo stood at the door and looked up at the sky, with a smile on his lips: "The Taoist priest next to him really has two brushes." After saying that, he turned back and glanced at Song Xiance: "Mr. Jun...do you have such a skill?"
means?"
He was still used to calling Song Xiance his military advisor, but he also knew that it was no longer appropriate, especially in the current environment, but the name would get stuck every now and then.
Song Xiance smiled and said nothing.
"Not to mention whether Mr. Wang has such means, it is impossible for Mr. Wang to have not thought of this method before because of his resourcefulness. Why did he not express his position, thus losing this success?"
Song Xiance sighed: "He walked to Li Guo and looked up at him. What General Tu said was right. The situation has changed now. Think less and do more. Young Master should focus on tomorrow.
Let’s take care of our children.”
Li Guo couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Sir, didn't you say that your son will have good luck?"
"It can snow suddenly today, who can guarantee that things will remain the same tomorrow?" Song Xiance's words made Li Guo fall into deep thought, and he took a long breath: "It's time to show off our skills, otherwise people will think we are just relying on luck.
Well, after a long time, you will be treated as a soft persimmon."
"Sir, Li has gone to see Zu Zerun." Kuang Ren gently opened the door and took a look inside. He saw Chang Yu and Li Muxian drinking tea by the stove. Hearing this, the two looked at each other, and Chang Yu smiled:
"This guy finally got down to business."
"Not only is he good at doing business, but he is also very good at making troubles." Li Muchian snorted, and Chang Yu was startled: "How do you say that?"
"In terms of official position, he is the chief soldier of the imperial court. Zu Zerun has no official or title. He didn't let Zu Zerun go to see him, but went to the military building in person. Isn't this a very good thing?" Li Muchian smiled half-heartedly.
: "This method is no worse than that of Lord Du Gong."
Chang Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "What did you think you were talking about? Hey, no matter whether you are in the world or in the court, you are bound to be worldly. Li Guo knows nothing here except the dozen followers around him. Zu Ze
Although Run has no official title, he is a local leader. The soldiers in Tashan Fort are all surnamed Zu. With his sophistication, how could he not know this? At this time, he not only wants to use soldiers, but also needs to be able to use them smoothly. How dare he put on airs? Besides, he wants to take advantage of the opportunity.
Build a good relationship with the ancestral family."
"It's just a matter of using soldiers. Aren't you worried that the Governor will get involved with the Zu family?" Li Muchian frowned, while Chang Yu rolled his eyes: "The Taoist priest must have looked down on our family. He just has an affair with the Zu family."
So what if he has a good relationship with Zu Dashou? Is it possible that Zu Dashou will rebel with him? From our perspective, our family would be very happy if he could establish a good relationship with Zu's family. It means that Li Guo has begun to integrate into this environment. See
Once you understand the reality, you can use it for me."
"Hey, I have a narrow vision." Li Muchian was a little embarrassed, while Chang Yu smiled indifferently: "Don't trust people when you employ them, and don't use people when you are suspicious. If we are afraid of this and that, why bring him here? We will beat him to death on the way.
If our family was so narrow-minded, we would have run out of generals already, and we would have killed even Gao Jie several times."
"That's true. The Governor's structure is so great that it is rare in the world. We are ashamed!" Li Muchian quickly complimented.
"We like to hear this, please say more." Chang Yule chuckled, and Li Muchian coughed: "I feel a little uncomfortable in my throat, so I'm going to leave now."
