I'm really not the carpenter emperor

Just now, the Ming army was besieged on three sides, and soon fell into a serious crisis. Zhu Xieyuan got the news almost at the same time that Leng Geli led the army to attack Ningxia Town.

Zhu Xieyuan's location was fifteen miles behind Ningxia Town.

Wang Rujin didn't know if he could be the leader. If he just ran away, Ningxia Town would collapse, and Zhu Xieyuan himself would be directly exposed.

Right now, the soldiers and horses in Ningxia Town are on the verge of collapse. Except for the Xuanfu soldiers and horses who are crossing the river, Zhu Xieyuan has only one supervisor battalion beside him.

But Jiannu is not an idiot either. If he sent the supervising battalion to support Ningxia Town, Nurhachi would probably guess his location directly.

In that case, the Jurchen cavalry from the entire battlefield will flock to this side.

Chapter 388 Wang Rujin is desperate, Li Hongji makes meritorious service

"Supervision is on the way!"

Zhu Xieyuan seemed to have made this important decision in an instant that related to his life and the entire situation in Liaodong.

After he finished speaking, he directly picked up Shang Fang's sword, got on his horse and said:

"Not only the Supervising Standard Battalion must be pressed, but also the artillery battalion here. Concentrate all firepower and aim at the slave cavalry in front of Ningxia Town!"

"Doesn't the slave chief want to know the position of the governor, okay! The governor himself stands up and sees if he has the ability to fight over!"

Zhu Xieyuan took out the sharp Shangfang sword and shouted:

"Send Wang Rujin to the governor. If he dares to take a step back, the governor will kill him on the spot and personally command the Ningxia soldiers and horses to fight the captives to the death!"

"Tell the soldiers on the front line, whether the battle is won or not, all the crimes will be borne by the governor, and you just use your life to kill the captives!"

In these words, Zhu Xieyuan showed the tough attitude Zhu Youxiao's imperial supervisor should have on the battlefield, acting both hard and soft, which is why he was able to overwhelm these arrogant and domineering generals so quickly.

When the news reached the front line, Wang Rujin lost his teeth in shock.

The lieutenant general said: "What to do, Commander, Zhu Xieyuan is going to fight the slave chief, should we withdraw or follow him to die...?"

When Wang Rujin heard that the Jurchen soldiers broke out in his direction, he also looked in disbelief.

He didn't have any intention of fighting for merit, and before that, he didn't have the idea of ​​risking his life.

He originally just wanted to follow Zhang Wanbang to pick up the leaks and cooperate with the troops of Datong and Xuanfu to fight this battle, but he didn't realize it. The slave chief saw his careful thinking, so he took it as a breakthrough, and planned to kill him in one fell swoop. Certainly.

Wang Rujin was indeed a little panicked at first, and was engaged in a fierce ideological struggle in his heart, thinking about whether he should slip or not.

But at this moment, Zhu Xieyuan's extremely strict military order came before him.

He sighed deeply in his heart, it seems that today's desperate struggle with the captives is inevitable, not to mention that there is no king in the world, so where can he go by running alone.

Why don't you fight with Jianlu, and you can fight a brave and deadly battle, the reputation of being loyal to the king and serving the country...

Thinking of this, Wang Rujin kicked the deputy general over, and said loudly: "What do you mean going to die with the supervisor? As the commander-in-chief of the Ming Dynasty, it is my honor to be loyal to His Majesty and fight to the death for the country!"

He turned his head and told the pacesetters of the Supervision Battalion:

"Please tell the supervisor, I, Wang Rujin, will never take a step back in this battle. If Jiannu wants to pass, he will step on my corpse!!"

Seeing that he seemed to be putting on a show, the pacesetter clasped his fists heavily and said, "Marshal Wang Gao Yi, I'll come back as soon as I go, come and die with the brothers in Ningxia Town!"

After saying that, he got on his horse and galloped away.

The deputy general hesitated to speak, seeing that Wang Rujin had ordered all the servants to suppress him, he let go of his thoughts of persuasion, feeling helpless in his heart, it seemed that there was only one way out.

Wang Rujin stepped on the wooden box with one foot, brandished his saber, and shouted to the panic-stricken Ningxia town generals around him:

"Today, I, Wang Rujin, will go all out and break my wrists with these Jian slaves! Pass my military order, and anyone who dares to take a step back and shake the morale of the army will be killed!"

The servant got the order and immediately turned around to deliver the order.

Not long after, there was a burst of cheers from the front, but it was a servant who ran back and shouted happily: "Commander, congratulations, congratulations!"

"Li Hongji rushed into the Jiannu army and beheaded the leader of the slave chieftains in two or three strokes. The former army of slave cavalry has collapsed, and Li Guo is following Li Hongji to counterattack!"

Wang Rujin was stunned for a moment when he heard this, Li Hongji rushed in and cut down the slave chief?

The slave rider hacked a slave chief to death in twos and threes, and then retreated with his body. Is this still a human being?

Hearing the more violent cheers, Wang Rujin was convinced, he laughed loudly, and was the first to rush out, shouting:

"Li Hongji is doing well, after this battle, I will personally ask for credit for him!"

"Brothers, follow me to kill the prisoners!"

Almost at the same time, all kinds of soldiers and horses in Ningxia Town began to counterattack, and Zhu Xieyuan also led the superintendent battalion to come, and all the artillery was aimed at the slave cavalry who broke out to the east.

The Jurchen cavalry were completely bathed in the rain of shells for a while, and suffered heavy casualties.

The Ningxia Zhenming army, which was considered by Jiannu to be a weak army, suddenly broke out with a stronger combat power than the Xuanfu and Datong armies.

The soldiers of the Ming army stepped over the hill-like corpses, rushed into the crowd of the Jurchen cavalry who had already turned their backs on their backs, and hacked and killed them indiscriminately.

During the fight, the corpses of the Jurchen cavalry covered the position one or two miles wide, and the screams and wailing were earth-shattering.

"What, Leng Geli died at the hands of a Ming army?" Nurhachi was shocked, "You don't even know what this Ming army is called?"

Seeing the white-armored guards who came to report the news, Nurhachi flew into a rage.

Leng Geli followed him since he was a child, and was brave and good at fighting. He once defeated the [-] Korean army with [-] cavalry in a field battle, but now he died at the hands of an unknown Ming army soldier?

He is Daikin's Eight Baylor!

What a shame, what a shame! !

There is nothing wrong with Nurhachi's strategy, but there is never a certain side that will win on the battlefield. It is impossible for him to know that Li Hongji, an outlier like Li Hongji, has appeared in the Ming army.

It was even more impossible for him to know that Wang Rujin, who was greedy for life and afraid of death, chose to kill himself in this battle and wanted to fight him desperately.

Every tiny detail may determine the direction of the entire war.

The sudden death of Leng Geli may have been careless, or it may have been a sneak attack by Li Hongji, but it didn't matter. It turned out that Leng Geli was already dead, and Li Hongji killed him.

It was the first time Nurhachi encountered such a failure, and he was at a loss for a moment.

But the next moment, Nurhachi was awakened by the roar of guns and shouts of killing, and Huang Taiji's voice came from beside him:

"Father, the pontoon bridge is ready, do you want to cross the river?"

Nurhachi made a decisive decision, got on his horse, and ordered: "Hong! Lead all the cavalry to break out with Ben Khan!"

Huang Taiji also knew the seriousness of the current battle situation, without any hesitation, he led all the remaining cavalry he could call, and followed Nurhachi.

Not only were the Jurchen cavalry tall and powerful, but they were all heavily armored. Even their weapons were fine steel tiger spears and broadswords.

Nurhaci gathered all the remaining Jurchen cavalry, took advantage of the slightly elevated terrain, crossed the temporary pontoon bridge, and evacuated hastily under the cover of the infantry.

Naturally, the Ming army could not let go of this opportunity to strike at the halfway point. For a while, all the musketeers on both sides turned their targets to the pontoon bridge, and suddenly fired a round of salvos.

In just an instant, more than 1000 Jurchen cavalry fell on the pontoon bridge, but the rest of the Jurchen cavalry passed the pontoon bridge unstoppably like a raging tide.

When fleeing for their lives, the Jurchen cavalry were more fierce than ever.

They waved their big knives, thinking that they were about to break out of the siege, but the flag of Ming Dynasty was slowly raised in front of them, but Jiang Bi's troops from Xuanfu Town did not cross the river at all, and they had been forming an interception here.

Seeing the Xuanfu Zhenming army blocking in front of him, Nurhachi's eyes were red, he pinched the horse's belly fiercely, and stimulated the mount continuously with the spurs on his boots.

The rest of the Jurchen cavalry were also like trapped beasts, desperately rushing towards this last chance.

Chapter 389 Tragic Victory, Killing Weizi Valley

"Slave chieftains are fighting trapped beasts, so don't forcefully stop them..."

Zhu Xieyuan was riding on the horse. He was planning to fight to the death, but seeing the changing situation on the battlefield, he couldn't be happy for a long time, so he suddenly shouted:

"Here's an order to tell Jiang Bi not to block, but to intercept the Jiannu infantry!"

"In the battle of slave chieftains and beasts, Jian slave cavalry is not weak in combat power, so forcefully prevent my Xuanfu army from being an opponent of slave chieftain cavalry, and tell him to let slave chiefs pass!"

Zhu Xieyuan knew that the Jianzhou Jurchens had actually grown bigger so far, and it was impossible to directly beat them back to their original form with a single battle.

What's more, the slave chief Nurhachi has experienced many battles. It is not without reason that he could not stop the siege of Liao in the past. If he insists on stopping, the gain will not be worth the loss!

The best result of this battle is to kill as much as possible the Jurchen Tartar cavalry and infantry brought by the slave chieftains. The loss of the real Tartars will hurt the pseudo gold!

Hearing this, the cavalrymen of the Supervising Biao Battalion froze the smile on their faces, and immediately patted their horses and walked away.

But when he crossed the Taizi River and rushed to the north side, he found the army of Xuanfu Town had collapsed, and the body of Jiang Bi, the chief soldier of Xuanfu, was lying at the front of the crowd, with a deep wound on his neck.

It was late, and he was still late after all.

After the Nu Chief crossed the Taizi River, he led several of the most valiant Baylors, with the Baijiaba Yala guards as the vanguard, and broke through the formation in Xuanfu Town with just one blow.

The infantry formation in Xuanfu Town, whether using firearms or spears in front, was completely unable to withstand the impact of the Jiannu cavalry bursting out in order to escape.

The chief officer of the Xuanfu, Jiang Bidu, was in front of the battle, but Huang Taiji slashed him under his horse. As soon as the general died, the Xuanfu army collapsed and scattered in all directions!

The good news is that the slave chieftains were in a hurry to flee for their lives, and there were still guns firing continuously on the other side of the river. There was no chance to expand their fighters at all.

Although Jiang Bi died, the establishment of the Xuanfu Army is still there!

After Zhu Xieyuan arrived, he was stunned for a moment, perhaps this was another piece of good news in this tragic victory.

Jiannu was indeed difficult to defeat in the field, but they won.

The military clerk came and wrote down the following passage: "The frontier troops of Xuanfu, Datong, and Ningxia were like a broken bamboo, and they collapsed Jianzhou in Taizi River."

The reality is a tragic victory, but it must be packaged as a great victory and reported to the imperial court, so that the common people in the world will know it!

The siege of Taizihe is over. Since the defeat of Sarhu five years ago, Daming has mobilized a large-scale force to defeat the Jurchen main force led by Nurhachi in a field battle!

Wang Wei, the forward general of Jizhou, was besieged by Nuqi Baylor, and died in a fierce battle!

Jiang Bi, the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu, fought bravely when intercepting the slave chieftain!

In addition, there are also countless generals, generals Qianzong, and guerrilla generals who died on this battlefield.

At the same time, there are more brave generals who will be famous all over the world because of their meritorious deeds and start their new chapters in the battlefield.

The waves washed the sand, and the brave Ming soldiers fought fiercely with Jiannu on the land of Liaodong, just to restore the Han family's rivers and mountains!

Daming was victorious, but the slave chieftain was defeated. They could only flee in a hurry and rush back to the old village, licking their wounds, but they didn't know how many soldiers and horses were laying in ambush ahead.

Looking at the wind-swept battlefield after the war, Zhu Xieyuan sighed heavily, and waited until the suppressing artillery group in the rear also began to fall silent, then he said weakly:

"Send an order to let the other three groups set up an ambush according to the plan, mainly to kill and injure slave soldiers. Remember not to stop them forcefully, so as not to repeat the incident of Xuanzhen."

After saying that, he got on his horse and said: "Report victory to Your Majesty, just say that the battle of Taizihe has been won, the slave chiefs fled in a hurry, and the minister has divided his troops into three ways to set up an ambush, and we will surely annihilate more slave soldiers."

"Everyone, clean up the battlefield as soon as possible, and continue to pursue with the Governor!"

After this battle, everyone respected the supervisor from the southwest even more, and they all clasped their fists and said, "The last general obeys orders!"

……

After a day and a night, Weizi Valley.

Weizi Valley is located in the upper reaches of the Taizi River, from the northeast of Weining up, after crossing Qinghe Fort and marching [-] miles to the east, you can reach Weizi Valley.

After passing Weizi Valley and leaping over the Great Wall of Liaodong, you will arrive at the area occupied by Hou Jin.

At this time, in Weizi Valley, among the mountains and forests, there was a scene of silence, calm as usual.But if you look carefully, you can see that the birds in the sky are flying at low altitudes, not daring to fall.

From time to time, small animals were frightened and rushed out of the dense forest.

This mountain forest has long been occupied by the Second Route of the Ming Army, led by Jiang Rang, the commander-in-chief of Yulin, under the order of the governor Zhu Xieyuan, to intercept the army of slave chieftains fleeing in a hurry.

A few days ago, during the fierce battle between Wang Wei and Yang Guli, the rest of the Ming armies followed the plan and marched separately, gradually forming a quiet encirclement.

The second Yulin army led by Jiang Rang, the general soldier of Yulin, was responsible for breaking the siege of the Jin army around Shenyang.

Jiang Rang ran to Huangniwa, crossed Chang'an Fort, and raided the Hou Jin army who stayed behind along the way. Within three days, he successfully joined the Mangui troops who were besieged in Shenyang City.

After the two ministries met, Man Gui and Jiang Rang continued to attack around Shenyang, focusing on the defenders left behind by the Jin army.

In fact, Nurhachi's troops around Shenyang were not many, but they were widely distributed, mainly because of the confusing effect, so that the Shenyang defenders did not dare to act rashly.

Man Gui respected Xiong Tingbi's strict strategy, and in order to prevent the fall of Shenyang from causing a sensation to the overall situation, he had to stick to it and wait for help.

After Jiang Rang led the Yulin army to Shenyang, the strength of the Ming army around Shenyang was greatly enhanced, and soon won a decisive victory with superior forces, breaking the siege of Shenyang by Hou Jin.

Afterwards, Man Gui continued to stay in Shenyang to deal with the remnants left after the defeat of the Jin army, while Jiang Rang rushed to Weizi Valley to set up an ambush without stopping.

At this time, the sentinel came to report: "Report to the commander-in-chief, the governor personally led the governor's battalion to win the victory in Taizihe, the slave chief fled in a hurry, and is about to arrive here!"

At first, Jiang Rang was not very convinced of Zhu Xieyuan, a civil official, but in this battle, he gradually grew to respect him.

Zhu Xieyuan is worthy of being a person who can gain the trust of the emperor, he indeed has two brushes!
