Chapter 769 Fool
Outside the city of Jinzhou, Dorgon and Liusheng Shibingwei were in a very good mood when they built the camp of the Central Army. For no other reason, all the layouts were completed as scheduled.

Jianlu's [-] cavalry troops first spread out, driving the Ming army back to Ningyuan at night, blocking the section between Jinzhou and Ningyuan Zhongzuo; Fort, Daxing Fort, Xingshan Fort, Guangning Zhongtunsuo and Nuerhe and other places, all ambushed the Japanese army.

In order to allow the Ming army to fall into a tight siege, and to convince the Ming army, the Japanese army even deployed 5 horses to the Ningyuan Zhongzuo, just to let the Ming army know that this was an army that prevented the Ming army from rescuing Jinzhou.

If you don't expose any of your strength and don't stop the Ming army, you are afraid that the Ming army will become suspicious.Therefore, Yagyu Jubei set up a motley army.This miscellaneous army is a patchwork army, commanded by Mitsuhisa Shimadzu, who suffered heavy losses in the naval battle, and is only allowed to lose, not win.After attracting the Ming army to defeat his army, you can rest assured to rescue Jinzhou.

At this time, looking at the newly marked layout on the map, Dorgon suddenly said to Yagyu Shibingwei: "We must win this battle, and we still missed consideration here!"

"Where?" Yagyu Shibingwei was happy, when he heard this, he hurriedly asked.

For the Qing Dynasty, this battle must be won. Similarly, for the Korean Japanese army, it must also be won.Therefore, there can be no sloppy.

Dorgon pointed to the map, and replied Liu Shengshibingwei: "Look here, and here, this is the mouth of the Xiaoling River, where the water of the Daughter River is gathered. At this time, it is possible to sail; and here , is the mouth of the Daling River, and ships can also sail; and the navy of the Ming Dynasty is powerful, maybe they will use ships to carry rescue troops through these two rivers to reinforce Jinzhou!"

If this is the case, it can just bypass the Japanese army's ambush on land before, which is equivalent to rescuing Jinzhou to the east and south of Jinzhou.

Hearing this, Liu Sheng Shibingwei immediately nodded seriously and said: "His Royal Highness is really careful, that's right, the Ming Dynasty has ships, so it will definitely do this."

Speaking of this, he immediately smiled and said: "My Japanese army has a lot of troops, I will immediately send troops to intercept these two places, if the warships of the Ming Dynasty dare to enter these two rivers, they must be sunk !"

"Okay, I'll also deploy a few general cannons to hide by the river!" Dorgon nodded after hearing this.

The Japanese army had few artillery pieces, and they didn't even bring them on the expedition to Liaodong.What they call iron cannons are actually matchlock guns.

On the contrary, when Jianlu was fighting against the Ming Dynasty, he captured a lot of artillery and robbed many Ming craftsmen, and when Kong Youde defected back then, he also brought craftsmen and artillery with him. Therefore, Jianlu There are a lot of artillery.

There are Hongyi cannons, but the number is small, and they have to be used to confront the Hongyi cannons at the head of Jinzhou City. However, the second-class general cannons are deployed on the river bank to bombard possible Ming warships. It is completely enough, after all, the Daling River and the Xiaoling River are not too wide.

After a while of busy work, the gap was filled.

Dorgon and Liu Sheng Shibingwei looked at the map again and found that there were no flaws, so they all laughed together, obviously in a very good mood.

However, in Dorgon's heart, he is not so optimistic.

Because he knew very well in his heart that the Ming country is now so powerful that it is very dangerous to force the Qing Dynasty and the Wa country to fight their backs.

Not to mention anything else, it just means that if the army does not come to rescue for a long time, and the situation continues to be so stalemate, without the Ming army coming to rescue again, the coalition forces of the Qing Dynasty and the Japanese country will collapse due to the exhaustion of food and grass!
How much food and grass there is is a secret in the army, and only he himself knows it best.Otherwise, once it spreads, the morale of the army may be shaken.

Hope everything goes well!Dorgon is optimistic on the surface, but he is praying in his heart.

However, the general situation of the Qing Dynasty cannot be hidden from Hong Chengchou.No, when Dorgon returned to the back tent to rest, Hong Chengchou, who followed him, said to him cautiously: "Master, this servant thinks that on the side of Ningyuan City, maybe we should bluff and let the Ming army think that we are here." To scare them so that they dare not come to the rescue, but in reality there is not enough troops, and they are afraid that the Ming army will rescue them!"

Hearing this, Dorgon was overjoyed immediately, and immediately agreed: "Yes, what Hong Qing said is very true, but what kind of bluff should I use?"

After hearing this, Hong Chengchou quickly reported his thoughts, and Dorgon kept nodding, apparently quite satisfied.

Afterwards, Dorgon immediately went to invite Liusheng Shibingwei again, and calculated Hong Chengchou's scheme again.This caused Liu Sheng's ten soldiers to wait for a long time, and followed the plan.

...............

On the side of Ningyuan City, Jianlu's scouts and Japanese army scouts probed their heads from time to time to check the movements of the Ming army in Ningyuan City.

However, the chief general, Zhou Yuji, did not move at all, he just closed the city gate tightly and did not fight, even the Japanese people did not fight when they were robbing the fields for grain.

On the second day, the Japanese army suddenly appeared in a large scale, and they blocked the east side of Ningyuan City, lined up, blocking the way, densely packed, and they came continuously.Looking at this posture, it seems that many people are coming.

However, if you look carefully, you will find that many Japanese soldiers seem to have come and made a lot of noise, but in fact the teams that appeared are very sparse.

At night, under the thin moon and stars, I could vaguely detect something moving in the Japanese army camp.

Then, in the daytime of the next day, many Japanese troops continued to arrive, and the camp was further expanded, densely packed, at least fifty or sixty thousand, and still increasing.

During this process, Mitsuhisa Shimadzu, the forward commander of the Japanese army, hid in the shade of a tree, watching the movement of Ningyuan City from a distance.

As long as the Ming army is not an idiot, they should be able to see this kind of bluff, right?
One can tell at a glance that this is adding troops during the day, withdrawing at night, and then new troops appear.In order to make it easy for the Ming army on the head of Ningyuan City to notice this, I let those soldiers with very distinctive looks come and go!
At least the generals of the Ming army on the top of Ningyuan City have binoculars for laundry?Should be able to see clearly!
Shimadzu Mitsuhisa thought so in his heart, but he was not in a hurry.Because he still has a trick to use, so that the Ming army can easily detect the truth of his bluff.

After the afternoon, all of a sudden, the Jianlu scouts and Japanese scouts who had been scattered rushed back one after another, reporting that there were reinforcements coming from Shanhaiguan, at least [-].

When Shimadzu Mitsuhisa heard it, he was immediately very happy.

Today's coalition forces are most afraid that the Ming army will not rescue them!

As long as the more Ming troops came to rescue, the more Ming troops would turn around and destroy, the more they would be able to deal a heavy blow to the Ming country, so as to achieve this strategic goal!
5 horses, plus the [-] in Ningyuan City, although the number is still a little less, it is still enough.

Thinking of this, he immediately reported the news to the back while continuing to bluff.

Sure enough, not long after, Ye Bushou of the Ming army began to appear, then the forwards, and then the Chinese army arrived one after another.

However, they did not attack, but stationed under Ningyuan City. Obviously, they had just arrived at the front line and had to communicate with the Ming army in Ningyuan City.

Seeing this scene, Mitsuhisa Shimadzu seemed to see a big piece of fat, waiting for them to be fooled, so that he could be eaten by the coalition forces!
However, what Mitsuhisa Shimadzu did not expect was that the reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty were originally thought to be only 5 horses.But who would have thought that about an hour after the 5 horses arrived, at dusk, reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty appeared from the direction of Shanhaiguan!

"Yaoxi, Yaxi!" Seeing Shimadzu Mitsujiu, he became even more excited. The more Ming troops came to help, the better. Anyway, the army of the Great Japanese Kingdom alone has 30 troops, and they laid out pockets waiting for the Ming army to drill.It's best to just fight and wipe out all the mobile Ming troops outside the pass!
When it was dark, the arrival of Ming reinforcements was estimated to have reached about 8 horses;

Mitsuhisa Shimadzu pondered for a while before implementing the next step.

Under the moonlight, the deliberately concealed movement spread to the Ming army.Not to mention, he also deliberately set fire to a camp, pretending to be a fire in the camp, and ended up burning the scarecrows in the camp.

Under the firelight, it can be seen from a long distance.

Mitsuhisa Shimadzu, who was hiding in the dark, watched the Ming army's camp and the movement above Ningyuan City, thinking in his heart, this time, the situation should be clear, right?You smart dogs, you probably think that my big Japanese country is an idiot, so careless, it exposed the fact that the military strength is far from that much, and it can’t scare you anymore, right?
Hehe, the fools of the Ming Dynasty who thought the Great Wa Kingdom was a fool, let's see if they will attack tomorrow!

As long as you dare to attack, I will eat you in one bite!
As he wished, his actions were of course seen by Zhou Yuji, who had a telescope, not only saw clearly the Japanese army's bluff, but also knew what conspiracy was behind the bluff!
But these things don't matter anymore, the imperial court has been preparing for this battle for a long time.The third and fourth batches of reinforcements will continue to arrive, and they will be crushed directly by their strength.

By the early morning of the next day, the Japanese army, with crooked melons and jujubes, came over continuously. Just looking at the camp, it was densely packed, and there were hundreds of thousands of horses.

Mitsuhisa Shimadzu purposely waited until dawn to cover up the half-burned scarecrows, lest the Ming army was too stupid to discover this bluff, and if they were too scared to rescue them, it would be a big trouble.

While he was thinking about it, suddenly, another scout came to report that the Ming Dynasty Navy had been spotted on the coastline. The long fleet, at least tens of thousands of troops, had come north by sea.

"Well done!" Shimadzu Mitsujiu was overjoyed when he heard that, because he knew that the two rivers on the other side of the mouth of the sea were ambushed by soldiers, and he had long expected that the Ming army might rescue them by water.
