Chapter 456. Victory within reach
After many years, there has been no such war in Liaodong.
On the Rufeng Mountain, there were shouts of killing sounds shook the sky, and the Ming army, one by one, one by one, rushed towards the mountain, and the cannons exploded. For the first time, through the camp, the Qing army was so desperate that they were shooting arrows out, and under the chaotic rain of arrows, the Ming army that rushed up fell one after another, and the hillside was covered with corpses layer by layer, and the blood flowed down made the hillside extremely muddy.
But the Ming army was like a new force, enduring shocking casualties, and they were fighting to the death. On the edge of the Qing army's camp fence on the hillside, the bullets fired from below and the bows and arrows shot from above were like locusts. In the crackling sound, the wood on the fence was splashed by wood chips, and the dogs were gnawed like dogs.
"Get up for me!"
In the already noisy battlefield, the roar was still suddenly as clear as thunder.
The meaning of the word "array" in ancient Chinese is the range that a person can shout. In this roar, more than a dozen ropes are circling and thrown onto the fence. As the man exerted his voice, a full section of fence that was more than 30 meters fell to the ground with a creaking and creaking break.
"rush!"
Another brief call was heard, with a shield in front of him, Wu Sangui took the lead and rushed into the group of Qing soldiers who were stupid and slashed.
A man was covered in iron, and he could only make a few nails in the lower lane stove, but a group of people were different. He did not fall behind in a single step, including those who threw ropes and bowling balls, which immediately caused a bloody storm. It was not as if he had cut vegetables, but his head was rolling. The Qing army's posture of killing the Ming army's musketeers was found by the Ming army on these defensive archers.
These are the famous Guanning Iron Cavalry, and even if they are dismounted and fought, they are still extremely fierce! With their influx, a hole was completely torn apart.
Dorgon was also a sensible person. With the screams from the other end, he had already put away his telescope and groaned gloomy.
"Can't fight anymore! Retreat!"
Before he finished speaking, he was already shaking the white tower helmet, turning his head back without looking back, turning around and running towards the foot of the mountain. The coach retreated. For a moment, a loud sound of gold sounds sounded from the top of the mountain. The Qing army, who had fought desperately to death the next second, turned around and ran away as if he had pulled his backbone.
The Battle of Rufeng Mountain is definitely a great victory, but here, the weakness of the Ming army was also exposed. Except for the abandoned slaves of the coat, the somewhat unlucky front-line Han Baqin did not run away, the rest were horses on the back and turned around and slipped away. For a moment, thousands of hooves flew, and the earth seemed to have trembled a few times. Apart from venting anger on the rear-breaking troops who had no time to run, the Ming army could only eat the dust behind the horse's hooves and jumped to scold her.
After fighting hard for a long time, the blood-red flag flying in the Ming Dynasty finally penetrated majestic on the top of the mountain. Standing on the top of the mountain and looking down, Hong Chengchou couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He made a lot of surprises in capturing the mountain this time. He marched at night and deceived the Qing army scouts and piled up 30,000 Ningyuan soldiers who attacked each time to 60,000. At the same time, Mako, Bai Guangen and Tang Tong's troops followed closely and threw them into the battlefield one after another, fighting a poor force, which caught Dorgon off guard.
This mountain is so important. In the southern edge of Jinzhou, except for this, there is only the southward Tashan Songshan, which has a undulating terrain and occupying this place. The commanding heights outside Jinzhou City fall into its own hands. Looking from here, the Qing army's siege of the city has reached its sight for dozens of miles, and there is also a support for the rescue. If you cannot take it and forcefully rescue it, you have to face the attacks on both sides of the Qing army. On the large plain, it is simply a dream to fight against the Qing cavalry.
In the last battle of Rufeng Mountain, the reason why the Qing army was willing to give up the Rufeng Mountain camp was that Hong Chengchou's troops had only 30,000 brigades, and the remaining troops were guarding the series of fortresses of Xingshan, Songshan, Tashan and Ningyuan City, and there was insufficient troops. If he wanted to force Rufeng Mountain, Dorgon could immediately surround him on the mountain.
But now, 130,000 troops are moving together, and the Qing army is only 110,000 on the front line. Dorgon does not have the strength to counter-encircle. He will never give up this strategic stronghold. Now that he has made a mistake, he can only trap the Changfu of Jinzhou.
However, taking down the Rufeng Mountain did not mean that Jinzhou would be relieved. He was holding a Western telescope in his hand. Hong Chengchou's brows were loose and then tight. The ring fortifications that cost dozens of miles were reflected in his eyes. During this period, the Qing people were full of cannons and their armor was shining.
In particular, the Qing army was not a simple earthen encirclement. There were several satellite fortresses near Jinzhou, Tainan Weibeitun, Dongguanxi. These outer defensive strongholds were all in the hands of the Qing army. The tall fortresses built by the Ming Dynasty were also included in the Qing army's defense circle, with archers and cannons guarding the tall gatehouses with archers and cannons eyeing each other.
Even under the pressure of Emperor Chongzhen, he had to swear to go out, but Hong Chengchou still did not intend to fight the Qing army completely to fight to the death. His strategy was to use light troops to raid, open a gap in the Qing army's defense circle, so that the besieged Jinzhou City could take a breath and supply some supplies from the periphery. It would be best if the Qing army retreated here. If Huang Taiji wanted to continue, he would still fight a war of attrition with the Qing country around Songshan Tashan.
In order to achieve this strategic goal, Hong Chengchou traveled lightly and only brought food for ten days. The supply line moved forward to Tashan. This was the third day and he couldn't afford to waste a minute!
He gloomyly visited the Qing army's guards with tight barriers, put down his telescope, and the Ming general ordered gloomyly.
"Buried the body on the spot, bury the pot and make rice, rest the soldiers, and tomorrow, take Yang Guozhu's troops, the general of Xuanfu, as the vanguard, to attack Xishimen! Release the siege of Jinzhou!"
"I will obey the order!"
In the banging response, including Wu Sangui, who had killed a blood-stained constrained robbery, he responded to the promise and turned around and left. The exhausted Ming soldiers rested on the battlefield all over the mountains and fields.
Early the next morning, another angry shout sounded again. Xishimen, which had the weakest defense of the Qing army, was filled with smoke, and heavy red-clothed cannons roared and roared. Iron balls burst into craters with dust and dust in the plains. On the gate building, several rows of archers trotted downwards in turn.
Under the city, the Ming army carrying a cloud ladder and holding a high shield roared and stared at the cannon fire and arrows all over the sky, and climbed to the gatehouse again crazily. Even though there were corpses all the way, the cloud ladder was standing on the city wall like a centipede. The fearless warrior climbed up like a knife and ant.
…………
This head is full of flesh and blood, cruel as if it were hell. It was far away in Kyoto, Japan, thousands of miles away, and the joyful atmosphere became increasingly strong.
It is not a trivial matter for the Toyotomi family to get married, especially the dowry was the position of Guan Bai of Toyotomi family. From then on, Yuan Chonghuan was Guan Bai of Fusang, corresponding to the Ming Dynasty, the Chief Minister, but this Chief Minister also worked part-time as the power of a series of eunuchs in the inner court, such as the Sili Supervisor, the Admiral of the East Factory, and the Admiral of the Jingying Camp. The imperial power was completely emptied by the system.
This is more important than the five-performing practice. It is considered to be the leader of the princes. Dear Daming, the farthest Kyushu Daming, and Daming of the Hokuriku, all rushed on the road with gifts and hurried to congratulate and express their surrender. Today, the head of the Mori family came to the Luo River. Large trucks were dragging silk goods and seafood delicacies. The Kyoto residents who claimed to be knowledgeable were all amazed.
This is also the happiest moment for Chiyohime. Mao Jue will never embezzle the little girl’s gifts if he doesn’t want to be a greedy girl! Gifts from all over the world gather in tribute. From childhood to adulthood, this girl has never been so rich.
A large Dongjiang mirror was placed in the hall with bright red bows tied on his head. A set of embroidered brocade and wedding dresses also developed. The concave and hot little figure was wrapped in a firm manner. Chiyohime was really like a butterfly, gesturing in the mirror back and forth, and turning several times, but the girl suddenly turned her mouth.
"Mr. Yuan was born in Jiangnan and must like the Ming style! Change it! Change it again!"
As the eldest lady shouted in a pleasing manner, a group of little maids were busy like little quails. In a short while, the phoenix crown full of east jewels was pressed on the girl's little head. The bright red and festive clouds also decorated her as graceful as the queen. Following Yu Le'er, the staff-in-law, the young lady in plain clothes was lit up her little head with envy.
"Good looking good!"
His little face was red with joy. At this time, there were dense footsteps outside. He held the corner of his skirt and excitedly greeted him.
"Mr. Yuan!"
Unfortunately, the person coming towards him was the Toyotomi family's inner minister, an old guy named Kishiyama Teng.
"Gourmet to the head of the family! The old minister brought Yuan to the imperial order. He wanted to travel north to measure the territory of the Tokugawa family in Kanto. He had to go out for more than ten days and could not choose wedding uniforms with the head of the family!"
This is the most important and happiest moment in a woman's life. Her future husband is not around. Chiyohime's disappointment can be imagined. Her little head couldn't help but droop, but then she angrily snatched her tiger's teeth and rushed back into the hall, and her little hand pinched her ear accurately.
"Oh, it fell! Let me let go!"
There were not many people in the whole Dongjiang who dared to pick up Mao Jue's ears, but even if this girl was one, she finally took a nap. He grinned and shouted sadly.
"It's not you, I'm giving Mr. Yuan so much work! For more than ten days in Kanto, a few more days will be a good time!"
Although he accepted his fate, Yuan Chonghuan was probably still a little resistant to the rebellious foreign vassal king. Mao Jue had no choice but to rescue his red ears. He hummed helplessly.
"Anyway, Shimazu Nobuyi and Ida Yongdon have not arrived. It's only half a month to delay it!"
Seeing the girl's little tiger's teeth lit up again and protecting her ears, Mao Jue waved his hand sadly again.
"You know each other when you fall in snow, and you will be with you all your life during the snow season. Isn't this romantic?"
Fortunately, this luoli is so fooling, and she turns anger into joy, and this girl is shy and has a little bit of her little head.
"That's right!"
"Snow falls! Yes! Tailor! I want a white phoenix crown and robe, hurry up and make it for me!"
The young lady's sudden whim suddenly made people feel overwhelmed, and more than a dozen palace maids shouted sadly.
"Your Highness, your husband, how can you use white weddings? It's unlucky!"
"I want it!!!"
This girl was anxious and twisting in front of the mirror again. When she looked at Mao Jue, she shook her head helplessly, but her eyes fell on Su Yi, who was slightly envious, and he decided heavily in his heart.
