Chapter 2617 Gui Zi Juan each uses his own unique strategy and takes a heart-wrenching blow

While Liu Dongyang was strategizing and Feng Ziying was on the front line, Nurhachi also spent a sleepless night.

For him, who is approaching sixty years old, staying up late like this is a bit nerve-wracking. And for Nurhachi, who wants to witness the big gold he built standing on this land, he has always wanted to avoid this kind of harm to the body. situation, but this time, he knew it was inevitable. ,

 Intelligence gathered from all parties shows that the war will break out in two days, and the Zhou army is also actively making preparations.

Especially the Zhou army on the southern front is constantly gathering troops. Daishan and others on the southern front will bear greater pressure and may even be defeated, but Nurhachi feels that it is all worth it.

The key to the war is still on our own side of the battlefield. The main force of the Liaodong Army is still here. As long as the main force of the Liaodong Army can be completely annihilated in this battle, the troops on the southern front will basically be guest troops, even if there are more in Dongjiang Town. They only huddled in southern Liaoning, taking over the front lines of Liaoyang and Shenyang. Jiuliancheng was suffering from ringworm and scabies, which was nothing to worry about. Mao Wenlong could only go back and wait for death.

As long as the northern battlefield is won in one battle, Nurhaci will take advantage of the morale of a great victory and decide to take advantage of the situation to go south and have a big battle with the Zhou army on the southern front and win the battle. Nurhachi has this confidence.

News has come from outside the border wall. Hu Erhan and the others are about to enter the border wall. They are now resting outside the border wall. This new force will become a hammer and hit the Zhou army on the western front hard, leaving them in complete despair. There is no room for resistance.

Fifteen thousand people swarmed in. Nurhachi could even imagine how big a shock the sudden appearance of such an army would bring to the Zhou army. The western front was not the main force of the Zhou army. Their main force was placed on the center line. , but once the Western Front collapses, the Thirty Mile Land will be reached soon. He wants to see how Feng Keng and Liu Dongyang deal with it!

The western line of Nurhaci was personally in charge of Fei Yingdong, the southern line was in the hands of E Yidu to assist Daishan, and the middle line was in charge of Nurhachi himself, with He Heli and Mang Gurtai as assistants.

In this battle, Nurhachi suppressed all the elites of Jianzhou. In other words, this battle was directly related to the life and death of the Jianzhou Jurchens.

Nurhachi's plan was to use Hu'erhan's surprise troops and Wang Yiping's defection on the western front to directly overwhelm the Zhou army and form an overwhelming advantage. On the central line, he planned to use his 6,000 personal troops to attack the Zhou army's Ganning Town and the Liaodong army's junction. Among them, the Liaodong army The Bai Qice Department in the joint department will see if it can play a role, but even if the Bai Qice Department cannot play a role, it will not affect the overall situation. Nurhaci is optimistic that his own barracks will defeat Gan Ning's army and then achieve strategic advantage.

Even if the center line itself cannot achieve a big victory, as long as it is dominant and the west line completes a big victory, Hu Erhan and Fei Yingdong can launch a hearty combo attack from west to east to completely defeat the Zhou army in the center line. , and then eliminated the Zhou army in the entire northern theater.

 The personal barracks Nurhachi was handed over to his old man Wu Mang Gurtaili to command.

Nurhaci also knew that Mang Gurtai had always been dissatisfied with his favor for Daishan and Huang Taiji, and had always hoped to prove it to himself with performance. Nurhaci was happy to see it happen.

It’s not that I have any prejudice against Mang Gurtai. Although Mang Gurtai fought bravely and tenaciously, his conduct in life was not as stable as Daishan’s and Huang Taiji’s wisdom. Sometimes he behaved more recklessly and impulsively. This may be true for a general. It's acceptable, but inheriting the throne is a huge weakness.

Of course, Nurhachi is also happy to see Mang Gurtai use his performance to correct his impression. Fighting is one aspect, and how to mobilize the morale and determination of the entire guard camp is also another aspect.

Nurhaci has not forgotten Chu Ying, who has always wanted to re-enter his sight.

There is no doubt that Chu Ying fought bravely and had great prestige in the army, but his wild, violent, and arrogant temper was unacceptable to many ministers and even his brothers. On the contrary, he was relatively kind to the soldiers below. This kind of temper that cannot bear to endure hardship also makes him unpopular among the Eight Banners nobles, and everyone looks down on him.

Later, Chu Ying and E Yidu, An Feiyanggu, Fei Yingdong and even He Heli all became enemies. Even Hu Erhan, who had always been relatively tolerant of him, had to criticize him. Daishan, Mang Gurtai and Huang Taiji also criticized him. After a while, Nurhaci had to take it down, but he didn't expect that this guy even hated himself, which aroused Nurhaci's rage and imprisoned him.

 Fortunately, this guy is not too stupid, and he knows how to pass on the information that Da Zhou contacted him to make him unique, so Nurhaci was willing to give him this opportunity.

 

"Where's Yongfang?" Nurhachi took a sip of warm wine and put down the wine bowl. His appetite was somewhat reduced after not sleeping well all night. This kind of warm wine can quickly warm the stomach and make his appetite better.

“Efu has gone to the rear. He and Da Efu are going to recruit all the Han troops to prepare for war today.” Changsui replied.

Generally, the large number of appendix refers to He Heli because he married Nurhachi's eldest daughter, Dongguo Gege. Generally, the other large number of appendix does not specifically refer to it. Of course, when Nurhaci asked about Li Yongfang, the title of confidant is because Li Yongfang just married Nurhaci. The daughter is also called the forehead.

 In the history of his previous life, Li Yongfang married the daughter of Abatai, but this time he was married to his sixth daughter, Jiamu Hujueluo, by Nurhachi.

"Oh? The two of them went there?" Nurhachi was relieved. He Heli was serious and careful in his work, and Li Yongfang was cautious and tenacious. He was even more relieved when the two of them joined forces.

“I’ve been there for a while. It’s said that Da Efu is going to work with Efu to discuss the next war situation with the generals of the Han army and carry out preliminary mobilization...”

Nurhaci nodded. Taking into account the combat effectiveness of the Han army banner tribes and their psychological feelings, Nurhaci did not directly put the Han army tribes on the front line to directly face the Zhou army, but considered putting them in the second wave. , but not as a reserve team.

The reserve force is led by Abatai, who is ready to join the battle after the personal camp breaks through to completely defeat the Zhou army. The Han army banner units are still commanded by Li Yongfang and Sun Degong, who will join the battle as flank supplements when necessary.

At present, although the troops of the Han Army Banner have not yet been integrated with the regulations of the Jianzhou Army, their combat effectiveness is still not bad. They have no way out after they rebel. Nurhachi knows the mentality of these people very well. If a war breaks out, they will not hold back at all. Because they have no choice.

 So he felt confident and boldly handed over the Han army of more than 20,000 people to Li Yongfang and Sun Degong.

When Li Yongfang and Sun Degong arrived with He Heli, Jin Yuhe, the Shi Tingzhu brothers, Dai Jixian and others had already arrived.

Everyone knows that the current war situation is tense, and wars are raging all around. However, this group of Han army banner tribes have not received the news. They just asked to step up preparations for the war, so after receiving the news, they calmed down. After all, it is a battle, and there is nothing to say. .

 Jin Yuhe also felt a slight movement in his heart when he saw He Heli in the middle.

It seems that the situation of the Jianzhou Army is indeed not good. He Heli and others would never come to the Han army at all. At most, Li Yongfang would call everyone to talk, but today He Heli came in person and was very satisfied. They had a smile on their faces and a friendly and pleasant attitude, which was enough to show how much they relied on the various departments of the Han Army Banner.

  But the more this attitude is, the more dangerous the situation is. Of course, this refers to Jianzhou.

Jin Yuhe took a deep breath and considered the meaning of the letter he received last night.

The confidant read it and recognized that it was a letter written by Feng Keng, the governor of Jiliao, because the confidant had seen Feng Keng's handwriting during the last war.

The letter clearly states that as long as he can turn back the enemy and make great contributions in this battle, he will not only be pardoned for the crime of surrendering and treason last time, but he will also be able to retain his current identity. Even if his contribution is great enough, he will be rewarded. Yes, it depends on how much contribution you make.

Jin Yuhe commanded a battalion of soldiers and horses, second only to Li Yongfang and Sun Degong among the Han bannermen.

Although the Shi brothers control 4,000 troops, they are three brothers, and Dai Jixian only has less than 2,000 troops.

Li Yongfang and Sun Degong each commanded five thousand troops, but Li Yongfang's level of trust was not comparable to that of Sun Degong, who had just joined him. Even Jin Yuhe was a little envious of Li Yongfang's level of trust in Jianzhou. Nurhachi He even married his granddaughter to him, which shows his trust.

However, the higher the degree of trust, the greater the pressure, especially now.

Everyone knows that there is no turning back. Jin Yuhe also knows that many people have already regretted it. Who would have thought that even Shenyang was captured and most of Liaodong was captured, but Feng Keng would go to Liaodong again and forcefully It would take several years to pick up such a mess, and it was not like the situation in Shaanxi and Hebei before. But they came and turned the situation around.

It's a pity that I took this step in the wrong direction this time.

Even Jin Yuhe’s contact there was just casual, so he didn’t expect to get a response.

 He ​​couldn't believe it when he received the feedback, so he asked for a high price. With Feng Keng's reputation, he was going to be the chief assistant in the future, how could he be willing to reply to the letter in person and leave a clue?

You must know that this kind of double-dealing is the most hated thing. If he dares to forgive himself, he will definitely be under a lot of pressure, and may even be used as leverage. He may be criticized at any time in the future.

 But if someone really dares to place such a big bet, Jin Yuhe cannot but be tempted.

Of course, Jin Yuhe didn’t mean to rebel immediately. He wanted to take a look, and he wouldn’t even make a decision until the last moment.
