Although Jiannu was just showing off on the front line of the Liaohe River, the Ming army was not polite to Jiannu.

As long as the weather conditions permit, Zhang Zhiji will set off from the garrison camp outside the city with the soldiers of the Beijing camp.Pushing twelve M-1938 120 [-]mm howitzers to two miles outside the camp, they set up gun positions, and then launched a round of artillery bombardment towards the Jiannu army camp on the other side of the Liao River.

The range of the howitzer is very long, and it can completely hit the camp of the Jiannu army.Although the Jiannu army would be bombed by artillery fire from time to time, the Jiannu wild boarskin chief refused to retreat because of his stubbornness.Therefore, they could only wait until they saw the artillerymen of the Ming army coming out from the other side of the river, and then quickly find a good place to avoid the shelling.

On March [-]th of the sixth year of Tianqi, Lin Yuhao returned with his team from Juehua Island.As soon as he arrived at Guangning Acropolis, he reported the victory of Juehua Island to Emperor Tianqi.

After listening to Lin Yuhao's report, Emperor Tianqi said excitedly: "Lin Aiqing is so predictable, Jiannu sent troops to attack Juehua Island as expected. Aiqing worked hard and contributed a lot, and won the victory of Juehua Island for me. I will reward you with 3000 taels of silver, and I will reward you with 100 taels of silver for each of Juehua Island’s defenders.”

When Lin Yuhao heard that Emperor Tianqi had rewarded him with 3000 taels of silver, he immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "My humble minister, I thank the emperor for the reward."

Emperor Tianqi was in a good mood, he waved his hand and said: "Aiqing has worked hard too, let's go down and rest first."

"Yes, Wei Chen retire."

After Lin Yuhao left from Emperor Tianqi, he immediately ran to take a bath, and then hid in his tent and fell asleep beautifully.

Because he was so sleepy, Lin Yuhao slept for a whole day and night.When he woke up again, Lin Yuhao only felt that his whole body was much more comfortable.

As soon as Lin Yuhao woke up, he found that Zhang Zhiji and his artillerymen were pushing six cannons to leave the camp. Lin Yuhao knew that these artillerymen were going out to use the camp of the Jiannu army as a target for training.

Lin Yuhao stepped forward quickly and said: "Master Zhang, this is bad luck for going out to find Jiannu again!"

When Zhang Zhiji saw that his artillery instructor Lin Yuhao was coming, he immediately bowed and said, "Master Lin, you're up! That's right, the weather is fine today, so I'm going to take my brothers out to practice."

"Well then, I'll go with you. It's also a good time to see how the brothers are practicing recently?"

After finishing speaking, the two walked out of the barracks together.

Just when the artillerymen started to build artillery positions, Lin Yuhao noticed something was wrong.The barracks opposite was too quiet, it didn't seem like there were people there.

Lin Yuhao picked up the binoculars assigned to the artillerymen and began to observe the Jiannu army camp on the opposite side, and Zhang Zhiji also noticed something was wrong on the other side.

Soon, Lin Yuhao put down the binoculars and said: "Notify everyone to evacuate, the opposite is an empty camp. It's not worth shelling, let everyone evacuate."

Zhang Zhiji is now used to carrying out Lin Yuhao's orders.He immediately responded, "Yes, I'll let everyone evacuate right away."

After Lin Yuhao returned to the camp, he immediately went to visit Emperor Tianqi: "My humble minister Lin Yuhao, please visit His Majesty the Emperor."

The little eunuch guarding outside Tianqi Emperor's tent immediately reported to the inside that Lin Yuhao had come.

Emperor Tianqi, who was reviewing the memorial sent from the capital, heard that Lin Yuhao was coming to have an audience, so he immediately agreed.

After Lin Yuhao walked into Emperor Tianqi's tent, he knelt down on one knee and said, "I see you, Your Majesty, my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

Emperor Tianqi said kindly, "Aiqing is alive, I don't know what Aiqing wants to see me about."

Lin Yuhao stood up and cupped his hands and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, I just found out that the army of slave building opposite has withdrawn. Now there is no one in the camp of the army of slave building."

When Emperor Tianqi heard this, he immediately stood up in surprise and said, "What? Aiqing, what you said is true. The Jiannu army has withdrawn from the front line of the Liaohe River!"

"Yes, Your Majesty. The Jiannu army has withdrawn, and I think we can send troops across the Liao River. Go to Jiannu's territory and hit them hard again. After this battle is won, Your Majesty can also return to the court. At that time, His Majesty's prestige in the court will not be the same."

Emperor Tianqi floated up to the sky with joy, nodded his head immediately and said in agreement: "What Lin Aiqing said is very true, how do you think this battle should be fought?"

Lin Yuhao knelt down on one knee and said: "I think that as long as we send 1000 new troops from the Beijing camp, [-] elite cavalry under the command of Man Zongbing, and the order to kill slaves from my subordinates, this battle will surely be won."

"Okay, I agree to your request. It is said that soldiers are precious and fast, and Ai Qing can set off immediately."

"Yes, Wei Chen takes orders."

After Lin Yuhao left Emperor Tianqi's camp, he immediately began to assemble his troops.He asked Zhang Zhiji's 1938 soldiers to take twelve M-[-] howitzers, each gun with twenty boxes of shells, and immediately went out to a simple port ten miles away from the army's garrison, where they boarded Lin Yuhao's The fleet took the initiative to attack Jiannu's territory.

On the other side, Lin Yuhao also recruited his second brother Man Gui, and asked him to quickly gather his elite cavalry and leave the camp with him.

In just over an hour, Lin Yuhao boarded all the following warships with [-] troops.Start heading towards the other side of the Liaohe River.

After crossing the Liaohe River, Lin Yuhao landed with his army in the afternoon.After the army landed and assembled, they began to look for some traces left by the Jiannu army when they retreated, and after finding the right direction, they began to rush all the way.

In fact, Jiannu didn't retreat very far. They only re-camped after thirty miles away from the original army camp.

The reason why Jiannu withdrew was because of the disastrous defeat on Juehua Island, which caused Jiannu's morale to drop to freezing point.The second reason is that Chief Boarskin's physical condition is very bad now. Sometimes he is sober and sometimes confused, and there are signs that his time is approaching.

Therefore, the banner owners of the Eight Banners immediately discussed and decided to withdraw their troops temporarily.One is to avoid the shelling that the Ming army suddenly launched from time to time, and the other is to shorten its own supply line, waiting for another battle.

Lin Yuhao led the army, and quickly discovered the specific location of the Jiannu army with the help of binoculars.After observation, it was found that there was a dense forest six miles away from the camp of the Jiannu army.After building an artillery position there, you can directly bombard Jiannu's garrison camp.And three miles behind the Jiannu garrison camp, there is a forest.

The forest is so large that it can accommodate a cavalry hiding in it.

After finding the army of slave building, Lin Yuhao ordered everyone to set up camp.Take a good rest and prepare to launch an attack on the garrison of the slave army tomorrow.

At night, Lin Yuhao dispatched all his bumblebee drones.A detailed reconnaissance was carried out on the preset battlefield to ensure that tomorrow's attack can proceed smoothly.

At Maoshi the next day, Lin Yuhao mobilized everyone to set off.He sent Mangui to lead his cavalry to go around Jiannu's side and back, and lay in ambush in the woods.When the shelling is over, kill immediately, and be sure to get into Jiannu's central army.

He brought his slave killing order and Zhang Zhiji's new Beijing army to the dense forest and built artillery positions here.

Jiannu is completely careless now, they did not send their cavalry patrols more than two miles away from the camp.It was because they felt that the Ming army must have become a proud soldier because of a series of victories.In addition, the little emperor Tianqi is a faint king who can only do carpentry, so the vigilance at the Jiannu garrison camp is very relaxed.

But the most taboo thing on the battlefield is to take it for granted. The Emperor Tianqi they thought was no longer the Emperor Tianqi who could only do carpentry.Not only did he think about Zhongxing Daming, but he also trusted his subordinates. He almost never interfered in how this battle was fought.
When the time came, Jianu would have to pay the price for his insensitivity.

Lin Yuhao set the artillery to shoot at Zhuyuan School as a position where he could directly hit the camp of the Jiannu Central Army. He knew that he had to kill as many senior Jiannu generals as possible.Then Liaodong will be able to end this long-standing military disaster as soon as possible, and the people of Liaodong will be able to live a life of peace and contentment as soon as possible.

After Lin Yuhao glanced at the rising sun, he ordered directly: "Start shelling, bomb with me."

After the gunners heard the order to fire, they immediately stuffed the shells in their hands into the barrel, closed the valve of the gun, and fired the shells.

At this time, in the garrison of the Jiannu army, the Jiannu were preparing to have a hearty breakfast.But it was bombarded by the sudden shelling.They never thought that the Ming army would take the initiative to fight over.

The continuous bombardment completely turned the camp of the Jiannu army into chaos, and Jiannu cavalry scattered and fled everywhere.

Hong Jieshi and several other banner owners tried to gather their subordinates and organized the army to retreat in an orderly manner.

But the camp has become a mess, and the position of the Chinese army is the key coverage area for shelling.Therefore, it is difficult to convey even orders now.

The bombardment stopped after eight boxes of shells had been fired.And the chaos of building slaves continued, especially those Han army flags and Bangziguo Eight Banners.They have already escaped most of the people, and they don't want to die here.

The shelling stopped, and Man Gui also led his subordinates to outflank after completing the circle.

Man Gui looked at the chaotic Jiannu garrison camp in the distance with the binoculars that Lin Yuhao gave him, and laughed: "Haha, I didn't expect that. You damn Jiannu, grandpa, I'm here."

As he spoke, Man Gui rushed out of the woods with his cavalry and rushed towards the Jiannu camp.

Lin Yuhao was not idle here either, Zhang Zhiji led the infantry of the Beijing Camp New Army to cooperate with Lin Yuhao's slave killing order troops.It has long been lurking to a place one mile away from the camp of the Jiannu army.

The bombardment had already scared away the cavalry patrols sent out by Jiannu, and now it can be said that the entire Jiannu army was stationed outside.Not a single cavalry patrol, just completely undefended.

As soon as Zhang Zhiji attacked, he immediately attracted Jiannu's attention.Dai Shan, Yue Tuo, and Mang Gurtai rushed out of the garrison camp with their personal soldiers and [-] cavalry gathered together, and launched an attack on the Ming army.

After all, Zhang Zhiji has the advantage in numbers here, plus the excellent range and extremely high reloading speed of the Thunder Rifle and the imitation Thunder Rifle.In less than a quarter of an hour, Jiannu's first wave of counterattack was stopped.

Jiannu's attention was attracted, and the chaos in the camp caused the cavalry charge here in Mangui to go smoothly.Like no man's land, he broke through the rear of Jiannu's side and directly rushed to the camp of the Chinese army.

This scuffle lasted for two hours.It ended in the complete defeat of the Jiannu, for their master, Chief Boarskin, had been hit in three places by splinters from shells that blew into his camp during the shelling.Although not fatal, for the wild boarskin chief who had run out of oil and lamps, these three wounds were life-threatening talismans.

And the Ming army didn't stay for long, so they withdrew.They captured more than 100 prisoners and captured more than 300 horses.A major victory has already been achieved, and it would be a bit arrogant not to withdraw.

When we returned to the other side of the Liao River, the sun in the sky had already set to the west.Lin Yuhao also counted the battle losses in this battle: three thousand and 720 Jiannu were killed, including two Jiannu Gushan Ezhen, five Jiannu Jiala Ezhen and eleven Jiannu Niu The record is true.Three of our own killed 130 people and wounded 320 and seven people.

Among the 120 captured slaves, one was actually a big fish.The big Fujin of the wild boar skin chief who built slaves: Ulanara Abahai.

It was a windfall, and it was chaos.This big Fujin had already been rescued by his son Azig, but the scene was too chaotic.It didn't take long to get separated, so he became a prisoner of the Ming army.

In the camp, Emperor Tianqi saw Abahai who had been captured and returned.

For the enemy's woman, Emperor Tianqi did not choose to kill cruelly.Instead, he decreed that Abahai should be rewarded to Man Gui, the deputy commander of Ji Liao who captured her.

Man Gui has not been married so far, so Emperor Tianqi took advantage of the situation and rewarded this beloved general with an enemy woman.In this way, Abahai, who was originally forced to be buried in history.Because he became a prisoner of the Ming army, he unexpectedly survived.

On March [-]th of the sixth year of Tianqi, Emperor Tianqi ordered the class teacher to return to the court.This time, the Yujia's personal expedition to Liaodong, which lasted half a year, was finally considered complete.Emperor Tianqi was also very excited, having won this victory.In the future, in the court, which minister would dare to offend the majesty of his own emperor, and which minister would dare to say that he was just a carpenter emperor.
