Chapter 446
Ao Bai is not stupid. The Dongjiang Army is not on the ship, which means that the Dongjiang Army must have seen through the ambush here.And coming with such a big fanfare, he must be up to something!

At this time, although he didn't know what went wrong, he also knew that he absolutely couldn't wait any longer.

So, while he was in a hurry for [-] miles, he sent people to report to Shengjing, and at the same time, he sent scouts to investigate the situation within a radius of [-] miles.They even sent farther along the Yalu River to find the main force of the Dongjiang Army.

So, where is the main force of the Dongjiang Army?

Daishan is the clearest on this issue.

On the second day after he dispatched [-] cavalry, while he was still basking in the sun, his subordinates almost crawled into the courtyard where he was, and reported to him with a pale face: "Your Highness! , It's not good, there are many ships from the Ming Dynasty appearing on the seashore, the Dongjiang army is going ashore, and the striker is coming to Jinzhou!"

"What?" Daishan got up from the reclining chair when he heard it, his movements were so vigorous that he couldn't tell he was 59 years old at all.But his face was ugly, he stared at the subordinate and asked, "How many people?"

"At least five thousand, but all infantry!"

At this moment, Dai Shan understood. He immediately issued an order to put the whole city on combat readiness, and before the Ming army arrived, he immediately dispatched a fast horse to chase back the cavalry army he sent out. At the same time, he also went to the nearby city to ask for help.

After giving these orders, he kicked away the maid beside him, and roared, "My king's armor!"

Not long after, Daishan, who was wearing armor, had already climbed to the top of the city.

Sure enough, he could hear the shouts of the Ming army outside the city that would not stop at night; also, on the east side of Jinzhou, a Ming army was rushing towards Jinzhou City in the distance.Judging from the banner, it is undoubtedly the Dongjiang Army.The "Lu" flag fluttering in the wind is a good proof.

"Tune the tiger away from the mountain, this king has fallen for the trick to tune the tiger away from the mountain!" Seeing this, Dai Shan couldn't help muttering to himself.

At this moment, he couldn't tell whether it was Lu Xiangsheng who found out that the situation was wrong and resorted to tricks, or whether Geng Zhongming really had to rely on the Ming army to perform such a scene.But these are not important anymore.The important thing is that Jinzhou City must be defended and must wait for the arrival of reinforcements.

However, the elite had already been dispatched, and with the remaining [-] troops, it would be quite difficult to defend Jinzhou City.

On the Jinzhou side, the idea has always been to block the Liaodong Peninsula and prevent the Ming army from Lushun from invading the hinterland of Liaodong by land.At the same time, it can also serve as a bridgehead for attacking Lushun after the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, although Jinzhou's defense equipment is prepared, it is not that complete.After all, for the Qing Dynasty, no matter how hard they tried to defend, they always focused on offense.

In Jinzhou City, the sound of police gongs kept ringing, and the soldiers of the Jianlu Army were all waiting on the top of the city.Dai Shan had been fighting for a lifetime. Although he was worried, he did not panic. He immediately issued military orders one after another, instructing Jinzhou Jianlu to prepare to defend the city.

The incoming Dongjiang army was indeed led by Lu Xiangsheng, with a strength of about [-].After besieging Jinzhou City, they began to prepare to attack the city.

The Dongjiang army began to assemble siege equipment within the sight of Jianlu at the head of the city.A series of ladder cars, watchtowers, arrow towers, etc. are slowly taking shape.Of course, artillery is also indispensable, and there are many Hongyi cannons.

All this made Chengtou Jianlu despair.If the cavalry hadn't left, there was no need to talk nonsense, and they could even go out of the city directly to attack the Dongjiang army.However, with the current strength, it is impossible to fight!
Under the high alert of Jianlu, the Ming army soon prepared to attack the city.However, at most, they were sporadic probing attacks, and they did not attack with all their strength.

Even so, the Chengtou Jianlu did not dare to relax their vigilance. If they were to relax and the Ming army turned their probing into a strong attack, problems would arise.

After dark, the Ming army continued to shout and kill, as if attacking the city at night, making a lot of noise, so that the Jianlu on the top of the city did not dare to be careless.

Dai Shan used his toes to think about it, and he knew that Lu Xiangsheng was bullying that there were few defenders in the city, and there were few rotations, so he used the strategy of exhausting the enemy, and waited for the Qing soldiers to be exhausted before attacking the city; If the defenders relax, they may suddenly turn from a false attack to a strong attack.

Although Daishan knew this, but he really didn't have enough troops, so he had no choice but to hold on.Of course, there are also remedial measures. He mobilizes the people in the city to guard the city together, otherwise, after the city is broken, the Ming army will definitely massacre the whole city to avenge the people.

At the same time, Daishan also encouraged the whole city, saying that he has sent people to ask for help, and the previous cavalry army will return soon. As long as they persist, turn around and attack inside and outside, the Dongjiang army can be broken!

It can be said that intimidation, pie and so on, all available means were used.

Golden State, which has been at ease for a long time, has finally entered a very tense state of war.

The northern part of Jinzhou is Xiaoheishan, and there are two post roads, which go northward from the left and right sides of Xiaoheishan, that is, near the two coastlines of Liaodong Peninsula.The post road on the west goes to Xinjin through Shihe post; the one on the east leads to the east sea and goes up to Hongzui Fort, Guifu Fort and then up to the Yalu River.

These two post roads diverged about twenty miles away in the north of Jinzhou.

At noon on the third day when Jinzhou was surrounded by the Dongjiang army.On the post road on the east side of the branch road, a group of Jianlu horses, about 30 riders, galloped past. They were the outposts of the Jianlu cavalry army.

At this fork in the road, I heard the sound of cannons coming from the direction of Jinzhou, which made the group of Jianlu scouts even more urgent, and continued to gallop towards Jinzhou.

Not long after, more than 30 Jianlu scouting horses galloped over. They were also sentry cavalry, just like the sentry cavalry in front of them. When they heard the movement in Jinzhou, they all roughly checked the movement along the way, and hurried to catch up. Went to Jinzhou.

After a while, these sentry riders returned and galloped away on the road they came in.They were going back and forth, but they didn't even notice anyone on the mountain.

About half an hour later, the thunderous sound of horseshoes came.A cavalry army came galloping from the post road on the left.Needless to say, it was the cavalry army sent by Daishan.

Previously, this cavalry army had never rested in order to catch up with Li Dingguo's troops.Unexpectedly, before he could catch up, he was caught up by the messenger sent by Daishan, so he hurried back again.It can be said that this cavalry army has not had a good rest these days.

Probably also aware of the exhaustion of his subordinates, the leader Jianlu ordered to stop and rest on this side of the Sancha Road, and at the same time encouraged his subordinates: "The Dongjiang Army only has 5000 people, and they are all infantry. They actually ate the bear's heart." Leopards dare to attack Jinzhou. When I return to the army, I will attack Jinzhou inside and outside the city and defeat the Dongjiang army. The great credit is in front of me!"

That's what he said, but he still had worries in his heart.

Chen Shaozong, who was on the road with him before, got the news by urinating.At that time, he felt that something was wrong.Now it seems that both before and after are conspiracy.That being the case, is the Dongjiang army really so stupid that it will give Daqing a chance to attack from both inside and outside?
In this regard, he is very doubtful.

However, he would not say this worry, otherwise, it would definitely affect the morale of the army.

At this time, he was also exhausted.When I was in full swing, I didn't feel much.After stopping to rest, I felt very tired.However, it doesn't matter if you don't take a break, you will soon arrive at Jinzhou City, and there is a fight waiting there!

While thinking about it, suddenly, he noticed something moving on the mountain, so he turned his head to look.

Seeing this, he immediately jumped up in fright, his face full of horror, and he shouted loudly: "There is an ambush!"

At the same time, the morale of the Jianlu in Jinzhou City was greatly boosted, and they shouted frantically: "The reinforcements are coming, the reinforcements are coming back..."

Daishan, who was old, was already a little out of spirits due to the Ming army's strategy of exhausting the enemy. Daishan, who was resting in the watchtower for a while, was overjoyed when he heard this, and quickly walked to the window to have a look.

Sure enough, in the distance, dozens of Qing horses appeared, surrounding Jinzhou City, playing hide-and-seek with the Ming army's Yebushou, telling the city that they are back.

"Okay, good, good!" Dai Shan couldn't help praising after seeing it. Since the cavalry can come back, it will be more powerful than the Ming army outside the city, and it's the cavalry that came back, the Jinzhou army The elite, this time, it's the turn of Lu Xiangsheng outside the city to panic, right?
Lu Xiangsheng didn't know how he did it, but he dared to attack Jinzhou.Hehe, Huang Taiji tried his best to plan and destroy your Dongjiang army, but he couldn't. He didn't expect that he was lying in Jinzhou, and the credit for destroying the Dongjiang army fell from the sky and fell into his own hands!
Thinking of this, Daishan went to see where the handsome flag with the word "Lu" was not without malice.This time, Lu Xiangsheng is probably going to run away?
Unexpectedly, no matter how he observed, the Ming army outside the city did not panic in the slightest. It was time to besiege the city or surround the city, and there was no sign of fleeing, which made Daishan a little panicked.

Obviously, the Ming army outside the city must have something to rely on, and they are not afraid of the cavalry returning for help.But...how is this possible?

The total strength of the Dongjiang Army, of course, he knows the number of troops in Jinzhou.After a little estimation, he can also estimate that almost all the troops of the Dongjiang Army have come, what else can they rely on?
Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked to the north, thinking in his heart, could it be that the Ming army found out that these scouts were just here, and the main force didn't come back?
Of course Daishan couldn't see what he wanted to see at the top of Jinzhou City.However, he suddenly seemed to hear something. There were the sounds of shelling and shouts of killing, faintly coming.

The sound of the cannons was still very dense, and it was not a single cannon sound. Judging from the sound, it was the Hongyi cannon and the Franco machine gun.

After hearing this, Dai Shan suddenly remembered the Battle of Tashan. The Emperor of the Ming Kingdom suddenly appeared with his imperial army, only to kill Dorgon and wipe out the entire army.

Thinking of this, he was so frightened that his body shook and he couldn't stand still at all.At this time, he can basically be sure that the reason why the Dongjiang Army outside the city is not flustered is because the Ming Kingdom has increased its troops.Maybe the emperor of Ming Dynasty came in person.

However, this is the Liaodong Peninsula, so how did the Ming emperor come here?Is he not afraid of the boundless sea?Aren't you afraid that if you don't arrive in Liaodong, a wave will knock him into the sea?
The sea, for Jianlu, is a terrifying existence, and they are very afraid of it.However, for Emperor Chongzhen, the sea is also what he wants to conquer, so there is nothing to be afraid of!The concepts of the two sides are completely different!
Thanks to his personal guards, he was supported in time.However, in Daishan's heart, he had already fallen. He was in despair: Jinzhou only had three thousand troops. Even if he mobilized the entire city to defend the city, he could only barely deal with the Dongjiang Army outside the city. Once the Ming Dynasty The emperor led his imperial guards outside the city, and the morale of the defenders inside the city was bound to collapse.

Hearing the cheers of the defenders at the top of the city, he was very sure that after a while, he would be very frightened.I hope that the subsequent disappointment will make them even more disappointed!

Daishan knew that if Jinzhou was going to change hands, he would also end up like Dorgon!Thinking of this, Daishan seemed to have aged a lot, and he was also desperate!

On the top of the city, other Jianlu also heard the sound of cannons and shouts of killing coming from the north. Slowly, they also realized that the reinforcements they were expecting were fighting over there.From the dense sound of artillery, we can know that it must be the Ming army that has so many artillery. The Ming army is ambushing over there and is fighting with their reinforcements!

Most of the Jianlu in Jinzhou didn't know the details of the Battle of Tashan, so they didn't think too much. They looked to the north one by one, praying in their hearts, hoping that their reinforcements would win, and they would appear like heavenly soldiers. Kill all the Ming troops outside the city!
However, many of them, looking at the calmness of the Ming army outside the city, knew that there might be more danger than good, otherwise, even if the Ming army outside the city did not escape, they would shrink their defenses.However, most of the Jianlu, still wishful thinking, hoped that their reinforcements would win.

Not long after, the sound of the cannon gradually became quieter, and finally there was no sound. It must be that the battle over there was over.

The Ming army outside the city did not attack the city, and the Jianlu on the top of the city did not bother to look at the Ming army outside the city. They all looked to the north and waited. If they looked in which direction, would the army from there appear?
This kind of waiting is tormenting, especially for many experienced soldiers on the top of the city, who can probably guess the result, and it is even more tormenting.

In the watchtower, Daishan even thought of committing suicide, but his personal guards did not allow him to stare at him to prevent him from committing suicide.There are also guards who are trying to persuade Daishan with a fluke mentality.

I don't know how long it took, but finally there was movement in the north.Ying Yingzhuo said that there was an army coming.

You don't need to look clearly, the Ming army outside the city first cheered in unison, while the Jianlu on the top of the city looked like mourning.Because it was a red dragon coming from a distance, needless to say, it must be the Ming army!

At this moment, Jianlu on the top of the wall was desperate!
