At the same time, the Denglai Navy dispatched hundreds of Cangshan ships and boats of all sizes from Penglai Military Port to assist the Dongjiang Army in transporting troops and providing supplies.

A semicircular encirclement against North Korea will be formed.

……

Dege Lei, a member of the Aixinjueluo clan, the tenth son of Nurhachi, is over thirty years old this year.

Compared with his two elder brothers, Huang Taiji and Dai Shan, De Gelei, the clan of the two yellow flags, seems a little moderate.

He has some military achievements, but he is not as good as many Eight Banners Baylors who are of lower background than him.

If it wasn't for Nurhachi's status as the tenth son and Huang Taiji's trust, it would have been impossible for him to take charge of the Yellow Banner after formation.

Having said that, now that the four major Baylors are in power together, there are not many people that Huang Taiji can truly trust.

Dege is a clan, always surrounded by a group of Eight Banners clan.

He supported Huang Taiji, just as Duo Duo spared no effort to follow Dorgon, and it was very important to boost Huang Taiji's momentum.

Even if Huang Taiji knew that Dege's ability to lead troops to fight was not even as good as many Baylors in the Bordered Yellow Banner Army, he was still regarded as the Baylor of the Bordered Yellow Banner.

And because of Nurhachi's tenth son, De Gelei was in charge of the Xianghuang Banner without encountering any obstacles.

Although, many people dissatisfied with him in their hearts.

This day, the Ming army came to attack Changdian Fort countless times, and Dege's attitude had changed from not daring to be negligent before to not even bothering to move a step.

Looking at Niu Luzhang Jing who reported the attack of the Ming army, De Gelei was still indifferent, holding a book of Three Kingdoms in his hand, and read:

"The art of war says that those who seek profit from a hundred miles away will have half an army."

"In my opinion, the Ming army traveled long distances from Kuandian Fort, and they didn't have enough supplies, nor did they have any repairs, so there's nothing to worry about!"

It seems that he is very fascinated by the Three Kingdoms.

In fact, it is no wonder that the popularity of the Three Kingdoms in the Eight Banners Army began with Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji liked Han culture since he was a child, and studying the Three Kingdoms happened to be his favorite thing to do.

Many people know that Huang Taiji has a copy of The Three Kingdoms at home, and when he goes out, whether he is marching, fighting or patrolling, he must always carry a copy with him.

After defeating Daishan and succeeding Khan, Huang Taiji even imposed his hobbies on the generals of the Eight Banners.

He stipulated that in the Eight Banners Army, the generals of Niu Lu and above must have a copy of the Three Kingdoms. Of course, the Jurchens, Mongols, and Han people must be like this.

After watching Huang Taiji of the Three Kingdoms for many years, I became more and more fascinated by Zhuge Liang's use of troops in it, and Zhou Lang was deeply impressed by his resourcefulness and decisiveness.

He believes that this is the crystallization of the art of war in the thousands of years of Han Chinese culture.

If you understand the Three Kingdoms and lead troops to fight, you will be invincible!

Dege refused at first, and was forced to read it for many years, and now he thinks this book is really interesting.

In many cases, evidence can be found in reality.

Just like now, the Ming army attacked many times, they must want to exhaust themselves, the more they are like this, the less they will attack the city.

After going up to the city several times and guarding it personally, De Gelei became more convinced of this idea.

In fact, he guessed the first half right.

Cao Wenzhao really meant to make life easier for the Tartars. Judging from the military strength of the remaining four forts in Kuandian, it is okay to defend the city, but it is very difficult to attack the city.

Thanks to Li's old general's "excellent" combat and city defense capabilities, the Ming army was completely blind to the movements of the Hou Jin army outside the four forts currently guarding.

Hastily launched an attack, not to mention the loss of troops, it is more likely to hand over the remaining four fortresses.

You know, as long as one of these four forts is lost, the Ming army will no longer be able to defend the narrow and long territory of hundreds of miles in Kuandian.

At that time, the Hou Jin army will be able to drive straight in, which will be a disaster for the people of Liaodong.

Moreover, the battle situation in northern Xinjiang was anxious at that time, and there was no latest news. Cao Wenzhao dared not act rashly, and was determined to focus on defending the city.

But for many days, there has been no news from Hou Jinjun, and he has moved some thoughts.

After thinking about it, he decided to send a small group of people out to test it out, and after finding out the movement of the Jin army, once it was damaged, he would just stay behind closed doors.

Chapter 748 Surrounding the Points for Aid

Who would have thought that the Derge class also planned not to play if they could not fight.

The Ming army attacked and harassed the city again and again, but they did not dare to attack the city with all their strength, nor did they dare to leave the Kuandian area too far, so the two sides remained in a stalemate.

It wasn't until Xiong Tingbi led the main force to Kuandian that the situation changed.

After many years, the imperial court once again sent a large army into the court. This not only excited the Korean monarchs and officials, but also made the Ming soldiers in Kuandian smile with joy at the great victory from the northern border.

Without further ado, on the day Xiong Tingbi arrived at Kuandian Fort, he beat the drums again to raise his account, and formulated in detail the strategy for retaking the lost Dadian and Changdian Forts in Kuandian.

Cao Wenzhao came out and said: "Taitai, generals, Mr. Cao was ordered to lead his troops to station in Kuandian, and he has dealt with them a lot in recent years, so he has some understanding of these Tatar soldiers."

"The slave chieftains in Dadian Castle are called De Gelei. Since the end of last month, the main force of the Tatar soldiers has disappeared, and they can't hold out in the city."

"Even if the last general sent a small group of troops to harass him again and again, none of them went out of the city to pursue them. It can be seen that the main force of the Tatar soldiers must have really turned to fight North Korea."

Xiong Tingbi nodded and said:

"The governor has known about this for a long time. This time, he came here to resist the captives and aid the DPRK. Cao Wenzhao, the two castles of Dadian and Changdian fell, and the governor has asked His Majesty to report. It is not your fault."

Cao Wenzhao was very grateful, clasped his fists and said:

"Thank you Taitai!"

"The Tartar soldiers can't hold out, so it can be seen that the main force is not here. It is not too late. I passed the order of the governor, and Xue Laeyin entered the siege of Dadianbao, and the rest of the governor and the Chinese army left the city to go south."

"This battle is to force the Tatar soldiers out of the city, and try to inflict heavy damage on them!"

All the generals said one after another: "Follow the order of Taitai!"

In Dadian Fort, De Gelei heard that the Ming army was attacking again, so he was calm and did not intend to go to the city to check at all.

Until a white-armored Tartar soldier ran up in a panic and exclaimed:

"It's not good, Dorobeile, the main force of the Ming army is coming to attack the city!"

De Gelei still didn't believe it, but he felt helpless, so he had to send slowly to the city to supervise the battle, wearing an iron armor inlaid with a yellow flag. Just when he stepped on the city wall with one foot, the scene in front of him made his eyes widen.

Xue Laiyin is leading the Ming army to come, the flags and flags of the Ming army are unfurled, and the sound of killing is loud!

De Ge class did not dare to be negligent now, and they also knew that there was no other possibility for the Ming army to mobilize troops on such a large scale, except for the retreat of the main force in Mobei.

Immediately he ordered, saying:

"Tell the inferior people of the Mongolian Army Banner, and those Nikan of the Han Army Banner, those who dare to retreat will die! One of my Jurchen warriors is worth ten Ming dogs! I will fight these Ming dogs!"

The soldiers of the Eight Banners, who had been pampered in the city for more than half a month, finally raised their minds to fight, and the men of the Mongolian Army Banner and the Han Army Banner enjoyed the treatment of landlords in this short period of half a month.

They are experts at bullying the common people.

However, right now, the Ming army has followed like a shadow.

Xue Laiyin held a goose-winged knife with someone's blood on it, dressed in an old blood-stained armor, and rushed to the front in person.

"The first to climb the city will be a great achievement!"

When the Ming army saw the leader leading the way, their morale was greatly boosted, and when they heard such a generous reward, they rushed forward desperately.

"Kill! Kill the Tartars!"

The Eight Banners soldiers looked down on Ming soldiers in their bones, so they naturally resisted desperately. For a while, the shouts of killing from above and below the city, mixed with the sound of weapons clashing, were even more breathtaking.

Swords and swords were full of blood.

Both teams are elite. Although the Eight Banners soldiers are a bit slack, they have a good location and a physical advantage after all.

The two sides fought desperately, and the first hour of the battle turned out to be so dark and inextricable!

The Ming army attacked the city several times, but they were repelled by the Jurchen soldiers with the Yellow Banner led by De Gelei.

During this period, the Jurchen cavalry also seized the opportunity to rush out of the city gate many times, inflicting heavy damage on the attacking Ming army below the city, and then took advantage of the cavalry's maneuverability to turn around and leave.

"Come on, rush up!" Xue Laiyin stepped back, waving the knife in his hand, pointing at the top of the city, then turned his head and asked loudly:

"Why did Taitai only let me lead the troops to attack Dadianbao, what's the follow-up?"

The lieutenant general was also covered in blood. Hearing this, he shook his head and said, "Go back to the general, the last general doesn't know! Maybe Taiwan has its own plan!"

Xue Laiyin thought about it, this was the only way to go, and he had nothing to complain about. Once again, he personally led the team up the ladder, turned around and shouted:

"Organize a team and continue to rush with me, I don't believe it, I can't take down these dog tartars in Kuandian!"

Besides, the main force of the Ming army led by Xiong Tingbi was coiled on the back mountain, waiting quietly. Many generals were itching in their hearts and couldn't stop asking for a fight as they watched the shouting and killing for several miles away.

However, Xiong Tingbi rejected all these requests to play without exception.

He is waiting, waiting for an opportunity to take back the entire Kuandian in one fell swoop!

You must know that Jiannu is not the original Li family army. They will not sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. When Dadian Fort is in a state of anxiety, the slave soldiers of Changdian Fort will definitely come to help.

What Xiong Tingbi was waiting for was such a fighter opportunity to encircle and fight for reinforcements.

Everyone was waiting anxiously, when suddenly a sergeant from the Supervising Biao Battalion came to report: The Eight Banners Army of Changdian Fort has already set out to march, and the spearhead is directly targeting Dadian Fort!

Just as Xiong Tingbi expected, hearing that Dadianbao was besieged, the Tartars of Changdianbao couldn't sit still, and immediately rushed out of the city to rescue.

Jiannu fought very bravely, and he was never afraid of field battles with the Ming army. One thousand Jurchen soldiers even dared to challenge the Ming army's 1 horses head-on. This kind of thing often happened.

But it was these self-confidence that made them fall into Xiong Tingbi's trap.

Xiong Tingbi immediately made a targeted deployment, stood on the top of the mountain, and said with his hands behind his back: "Man Gui led the iron cavalry battalion to rush behind Xue Laiyin's army who attacked Dadian Fort, and prepare to attack."

Man Gui couldn't bear it any longer, and laughed out loud when he heard the words, turned around and left.

Xiong Tingbi looked serious, and continued to order:

"Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao led 8000 defenders of Kuandian Fort, bypassed Dadian Fort, went straight to Changdian Fort, and cut off the retreat of the slave soldiers!"

Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao looked at each other, and the former took a step forward and shouted: "The last general will obey the Taiwan military order!"

After saying that, the two turned their horses one after the other, and Cao Wenzhao gave a loud order to lead the Liao army of the headquarters to discard the luggage, pack lightly and go straight to the weakly defended Dadian Fort.

"The governor is here to lead the Chinese army, and Zhao, the general manager, is teaching. Where is Zuo Liangyu, the battalion officer of the car battalion?"

Immediately, two burly generals came out and said, "The last general is here! Please order!"

"Let the two of you lead an army of [-] and [-] infantry in the chariot battalion, rush to the rescue of Xue's tribe, and take back Dadianbao before Jiannu arrives!"

Watching the two go down the mountain, Xiong Tingbi inadvertently clenched his fists, staring at the distant battlefield where the sound of killing was still clearly audible.

Although he has an absolute advantage in this battle, Xiong Tingbi still dare not be careless.

He lived in Liao Dynasty for six years, counting the Wanli dynasty, nearly ten years, how many decades can there be in his life?

He clearly knew how difficult it was for Daming to save his current wealth, so Xiong Tingbi still acted cautiously, and he could save one death in battle.

Chapter 749 Xiong Tingbi's Heart of Stone

The yellow sand is long and the dust is flying.

Amidst the sound of iron hooves, groups of Eight Banners cavalry were marching towards Dadianbao.

Along the way, there were constant attacks by the Ming army, but they had no intention of fighting, let alone love to fight, and just kept galloping northward.

Defending Dadian Fort is still secondary. For Baylor, the leader of the army, the Dege in Dadian Fort is even more important than the city.

De Gelei is the tenth son of Nurhachi, with enough qualifications to be in charge of the army, and he is also a member of the authentic Aixinjueluo family, so his support for Huang Taiji is very important.

Huang Taiji even planned to proclaim himself emperor after the war, set up six ministries imitating the Ming system, and use virtues to manage the military ministries to help him stabilize the throne.

Therefore, the Baylor with the yellow flag understands that even if the city is lost, nothing will happen to the Dege class!

The Ming army had no choice but to gather gradually and follow behind this part of the Eight Banners army, waiting for an opportunity to severely injure the Eight Banners army.

This part of the cavalry with the yellow flag had just arrived at a place fifty miles away from Dadianbao, when a burst of cannons suddenly came from the mountains on both sides.

Subsequently, a large number of auxiliary soldiers of the Ming army rushed out from the mountain.

There were gunfires all around, and countless Eight Banners cavalry fell off their horses. Man Gui also led five thousand cavalry from the iron cavalry battalion to cover up and kill them from the front, and fought with the Eight Banners cavalry.

Baylor, the leader of the army, never thought that the cavalry of the Ming army would have such combat effectiveness.

In fact, he was not facing the cavalry of the Ming army.

Man Gui, who led the army, was a member of the Mongolian Han tribe. These five thousand cavalry were also formed by selecting extremely loyal Mongols. With the blessing of heavy money and equipment, they were extremely brave.
