The Qing army began to press over like a black cloud, and the Dongjiang River began to squeeze every bit of energy in its body like a sponge, preparing for this upcoming battle.

A huge sand table was taken from a series of tea jars from the past and placed on the large round table in the conference room. Fortunately, after so many years of construction, the one-acre three-point land in Dongjiang is sure to see, and the horizontal lines running through the Dongjiang River are filled with small green and red flags.

On the corresponding road, there were more than 100,000 people trekking, the elderly, weak, women, children, and students shouting and driving oxen and carriages, pulling heavy boxes, various supplies and food, and leaving the more rugged and wild Hamkyung Road in the northeast.

Right beside them, carrying the newly launched flintlock rifle, wearing the stamped cotton armor spewing out of the industrial explosion, with an extremely solemn face, men were moving south with a serious expression. At this time, no matter what kind of soldiers and soldiers of the garrison were, as long as the men who could resist were all pulled onto the battlefield.

From the beginning of the time travel, every day was preparing for this war. When the Qing army was in the face, it was surprising that Mao Jue was not so nervous. His face was as cold as iron, he looked at the sand table in front of him and inserted the flags one by one.

"Jiang Ye, should you mobilize the manpower first and dig the official road from Yizhou to Tieshan?"

As he said this, Fan Wenju's heart was bleeding with pain. The Dongjiang transportation network was the most proud of his work. It was with these networks that Mao Juefang could quickly allocate materials and gather troops in the country in a short period of time, but now, he needs to destroy them with his own hands. Now Fan Wenju has no children, but he has truly experienced what it feels like to strangle his own children with his own hands.

Fortunately, when Mao Jue looked at the map, he shook his head.

"The official road cannot be demolished! Indeed, the official road is extremely convenient for the Jiannu's horse army, but our bunkers and castles are only built on both sides of the official road. Once Jiannu invades and has the official road, they will be used to advance along the official road, which is just sniping by my bunker group. If the official road is demolished, not to mention whether the road can be completely destroyed, just Jiannu doesn't know where to attack the cavalry, it will be enough for us to have a headache!"

"There is also Yizhou. The city walls of Yizhou do not need to be destroyed. Just transport the grain away from the official warehouse, and the heavy silver and cloth can also be thrown there!"

"Jiang Ye, isn't this cheap? Jiannu?"

Suddenly, Wen Meng Kong Youde and his face twitched with distress, but Mao Jue, who was a little sting, didn't even blink his eyelids this time.

"As long as you preserve Dongjiang, the silver and cloth, you will have as much as you want in the future. Even if Jiannu splits out five thousand troops to protect these silver, it will be beneficial to us!"

"I will obey the order!"

Even if he was heartbroken, Mao Jue set the tone and these subordinates had to obey. Several generals bowed their heads one after another. What made their teeth itchy was that after listening to Mao Jue's battle strategy, Fan Wenju, who had a lit up eyes, added.

"If the general is willing to give up, the official thinks that the evacuation of materials can be ordered to slow down and load some fortresses along the way. Jiannu robbed him and knew that there was wealth here, he would not use fire to bombard the enemy. This has eased the pressure on the defenders along the way!"

"Yes, you can do it now!"

He bowed with fists and looked at Fan Wenju in a hurry when he looked at the prodigal son.

"General, why not mobilize the soldiers of Kuye Town to come here too! Relieve the pressure on our army! Kuye garrison Luo Zhige also sent a letter of request for battle!"

Even if he used his strength to mobilize all the soldiers who could fight in the entire Dongjiang River, Mao Jue had only more than 77,900 troops under his command, which exceeded one-third of the Qing army, and less than half of them. The troops of the refugees in Kuye Town were still about 20,000. However, following Kong Youde's suggestion, Mao Jue shook his head with difficulty.

Before the wise man wins, he is determined to lose first! To be honest, even if he has developed vigorously to this day, facing the most powerful bandit group that dominates Northeast Asia, especially the Qing army of 400,000 Mongolian households on the grassland, Mao Jue was unsure.

Bayonets and flintlocks and cannons are not omnipotent. In Napoleon's Battle of Russia, the arrogant French infantry made the Russian Cossacks cry and cry. Even during the Opium War, the cavalry was still an extremely important military force, not to mention now, if this battle is defeated and the Dongjiang falls, then Mao Jue's last glimmer of hope will be Kuye Town! Although it is difficult to turn the tables, once Jiannu cleared the Li Korean North Korea, Dongjiang could only surround an isolated island and relied on the fleet to fight guerrillas, but that would be better than annihilation of the entire army!

"Kuye Town cannot move. Fan Wenju will come back later and ask him to prepare to organize the retreat of the elderly and weak, and continue to retreat northward. If..."

"Everyone retreats to Kuye Town!"

"Tell everyone that their wives, children and children will be in the safe rear, but whether they can make their wives, children safe and healthy in the future and protect the land they rely on for survival depends on how they fight!"

"Abide by the order!"

With a sigh, Kong Youde retreated again.

However, Fan Wenju, who had just left at this time, suddenly became full of panic and anger, and rushed in again.

"Jiang Ye! Pi Island!"

…………

The muscles on Mao Jue's face kept twitching due to anger.

The once empty Pi Island is now empty again! Huanglong, run away!

The military expenses Mao Jue gave him were 600,000 taels and 20,000 s of grain that were fleeing with him.

However, the loss of silver at this time was secondary. Mao Jue's most heartbroken attitude was Huang Long's attitude.

Whether it was due to the hatred left by Yuan Chonghuan between the two towns, the jealousy of Liaodong Town, or the tofu soldiers who had been defeated repeatedly in the Guanning Jin defense line were really scared, Huang Long's attitude basically represented the attitude of Liaodong Town. Even if he was forced to support Dongjiang by the emperor's order, these people were destined to be unable to work hard.

Mao Jue, I'm afraid he can't wait for reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty!

"Master Jiang, there is also this bastard who didn't have time to escape! I will press you here and bring you up!"

In an angry voice, Wen Meng cursed and asked his subordinates to push him, but he pulled a Qing-style civil servant over. It was Qu Shisi. Now, the eldest disciple of the romantic leader Qian Qianyi was still angry. He was still thrusting and yelling angrily.

"What does it mean to escape if you haven't got time! I am the military supervisor of Dongjiang! Let me go!"

"Let him go! Why didn't you leave?"

Mao Jue waved his hand, and Wen Meng's personal soldiers on both sides made way. It was considered that this scholar could be honest with his clothes and a cold face. Mao Jue was not emotional and blurted out like a puppet, but Qu Shisi was yelling again angrily.

"I am the fifth-rank Pilgrimage Censor of the Military Supervisor! General Mao, your subordinates are so rude! I want to impeach you and Huang Long who escaped in the battle!"

How powerful is the military supervisor? It can be seen from the battle between Dalinghe and Song Jinxing. In the battle between Dalinghe, a group of first and second-rank generals and deputy generals of the fifth-rank officer Zhang Chun were driven to scream. The Botuan was destroyed. In the battle between Song Jin, even if the alive king of Hell, Hong Chengchou, this number of fierce men had to be in charge of the affairs of the two ministries of war. Zhang Ruolin and Ma Shaoyu took the risk under the pressure of two sesame officials, ventured into the boundary of Jinzhou, surrounded by the Qing army, and destroyed the last mobile corps outside the pass of the Ming Dynasty.

Qu Shisi was previously considered a trump card for Mao Jue. As long as he was told, the troops supported by Liaodong could at least dispatch them, but now the Liao soldiers could hardly rely on them. What's the use of keeping him an empty shell?

Seeing that this guy was still a scholarly man, Mao Jue simply waved his face in disgust.

"Come here, prepare a boat and take Qu Jianjun to Lushun!"

He was so angry that he was dragged back by several personal soldiers. Qu Shizi was still roaring in anger.

"Mao Jue, you are presumptuous!"

"I am a military and horse affairs under the Ministry of War. If you dare to treat me like this, I will definitely impeach you even if Huang Long takes you!"

Unfortunately, even if he shouted, Mao Jue's attention was not on him anymore. Looking at the Pi Island Fortress full of vicissitudes, Mao Jue shook his head with a wry smile.

"The thief is gone, so don't be idle here! Order the fleet to dock on Pi Island and support it at any time."

"I will obey the order!"

…………

Dongjiang used all his strength to withstand the thunder attack. On the other side, the dark clouds formed by the Qing army also condensed in the sky and remained unshakable for a long time. In early May, the lively Yalu Riverside City completely dispersed, and the movements of the Qing Dynasty were completely clear.

Dorgon Haoge led the left-wing Manchus as the vanguard, commanding 30,000 troops, Mataford, Duoduo, Yuetuo and others led the cavalry to advance in multiple ways, while the central army was led by Huang Taiji himself, which was not very different from the previous information. The total number of Mongolian, Manchu and Han armies was 150,000, plus the number of slaves, the total number of troops was more than 200,000 troops, and the Li family was suppressed in a mighty manner.

As for the reinforcements behind him, the Ministry of War started arguing first, Huanglong Turtle retreated to Lushun, Zu Dashou, who had previously saved Mao Jue's life, had sent out a manifesto, but everyone in it was so anxious that he did not have the order of the Ministry of War, "cannot send troops"! Mao Jue asked himself to defend the tower and wait for the Ministry of War to order.

The messenger communication was more than a month ahead of schedule. The precious information that was discovered early began to become worthless as minute by minute.

No wonder they have been defeated repeatedly. Such friendly troops in friendly towns and cities are probably even Sun Wu will have to do anything to do if he is alive.

On May 22, Huang Taiji's proclamation was officially issued to Dongjiang. When he received the proclamation, Mao Jue was preparing the troops in the Tieshan Schoolyard.

Seeing the manifesto written in the three words of Meng, Manchu and Han, Mao Jue's face changed. Generals such as Wen Meng dared not speak a word and were there silently. Who knew that there was a sudden noise in Dayingkou during this skill.

This time, I felt like I was changing the cannon. There were more than a dozen Jinyiwei around me and the military supervisor Qu Shizi actually returned and rushed in with a proud look.
Chapter completed!
