"Fifth brother, let's have something to eat."

In the Later Jin commander's tent, Dorgon took the food delivered by his subordinates and brought it to Mangourtai, who was busy with military affairs.

But Mangourtai seemed to have never heard of it, and his eyes were still staring at the military report in his hand.

Looking at the appearance of Mangourtai, Dorgon was also mixed with feelings. He pursed his lips, but in the end he didn't say anything more. He put down the food and silently left the handsome tent.

As the deputy commander of the army, he naturally understood how terrifying the oppression brought by the Ming Dynasty Zhenbeihou was.

If he had said that before, he had complained about the fifth brother who abandoned his father Khan and fled back, who had taken over the position of commander, and he still looked down upon the so-called Zhenbeihou of the Ming Dynasty. But now, he has presided over several small-scale temptations and was easily pressed to the ground by the Zhenbeihou of the Zhenbeihou, all his complaints and contempt have been wiped out completely.

He couldn't help but worry that even if Liaodong plans to achieve it and the main force of the Later Jin Dynasty arrived, would he really defeat the Ming Zhenbei Hou?

Or maybe such a commander did not take into account the possible changes in Liaodong?

Looking at the long Ming army camp in the distance and the surging sun and moon flags, Dorgon was also a little dazed.

Just a year ago, the Ming Dynasty in his memory was still so decadent and vulnerable.

But, just because of the existence of Zhenbeihou, all this was completely changed.

Support the building to fall, turn the tide to fall!

Until now, they stand like a mountain in front of them...

"If you lose this time..."

Suddenly, this terrifying thought came to Dorgon's mind.

Failed...

Dorgon couldn't imagine the consequences...

In fact, what Dorgon dared not imagine is a certain fact in the coalition commanded by Li Xiu, and the interests that have been divided.

However, the Mongolian tribes that were fighting with the Ming Dynasty, including Lin Danhan, also knew clearly that they would divide up and divide. Even if it was the default of Zhenbei Hou, it would never be a real fact before Zhenbei Hou’s personal promise.

Just as Li Xiu brought the terrifying pressure to Mangurtai at Dorgon, Lin Dankhan and the Mongolian tribes in the northern desert under Li Xiu's control naturally only felt it more profoundly and thoroughly.

If it is better to focus on the Ming tribe, there is no need to worry about anything. For example, Lin Danhan and others who are ill-hearted and have their own plans, that is the real nervousness and fear.

Li Xiuzhi's existence is like a towering mountain to them.

It seems that as long as there is any misconduct, the mountain will fall down and crush them to pieces.

Although Li Xiu was aware of all this, he did not take it too seriously. The grasslands were martial and worshipping the strong was a deeper nature than the farming nation.

Even if the strategic goal is achieved, it will leave a lot of disasters on the grassland. It is a good thing that his prestige can suppress it for a while.

Compared with external troubles, the mess inside the Ming Dynasty is really worrying.

In the tent.

As usual, a thick stack of envelopes from the capital was also placed on Li Xiu's table.

In fact, from the beginning, Li Xiu's attention had never been entirely focused on this war.

The messengers who came and went to the capital were in constant contact every day, including his connections with Zhu Youjian, as well as the Jinyiwei, the Dongchang, the nobles, and the news sent by the civil officials he gathered.

Such a multi-pronged approach is enough to allow him to grasp any changes in the situation in the capital in time and make targeted arrangements.

Of course, the most important thing is the physical condition of the emperor.

After reading the letters that arrived at the camp, Li Xiu felt a little uneasy and calmed down a lot.

If only talking about war, he has absolute confidence, but if there is a change in the capital, then nothing can be said.

Fortunately, after several months of going to the battle, everything was still calm. The emperor and his body were normal, and there were no signs of deterioration.

After reassurance, Li Xiu turned his attention to the military affairs on the other side of the table.

When he flipped through the report from Yan Shun, Li Xiu's brows also frowned.

"Liao Town...Yuan Chonghuan..."

With a whispering softly, and as his thoughts flowed, Li Xiu also habitually tapped the table gently.

According to Yan Shun, Liao Town seems... a little abnormal...

With the sound of knocking, Li Xiu slowly sorted out all the news about Liao Town in his mind...

"Liao Town... is really useless!"

Finally, the knocking sound suddenly stopped, and Li Xiu also sighed lightly.

While staying alert, many things cannot stand scrutiny.

The relationship between cause and effect also exists clearly...

After a moment of silence, Li Xiu also slowly stood up, his eyes gathered on the map of the Ming Dynasty, and finally frozen in the Liaodong area.

At first, his vigilance towards Liao Town was derived from the essence of Liao Town's self-respecting enemy forces. Now, through Yan Shun's report, the situation seems to be more than that.

Then, the situation seems to be a little wrong...

After a long time of silence in the tent, Li Xiu's voice suddenly rang out.

"After sending the order, ordering the leaders and leaders of the Mongolian tribes to enter the account to discuss matters, and immediately send this letter to Yan Shun, Liaodong..."

...

Liaodong, Tashan!

Tashan, which was originally an important town in Liaodong, became an indestructible military center after Yan Shun led his army to enter.

Nowadays, every moment, it is seen that the soldiers in the city are busy and are constantly strengthening the city defense facilities. From time to time, a large number of food and supplies are continuously transported into Tashan City.

More than ten miles south of Jinzhou is Songshan City, more than ten miles southwest of Songshan is Xingshan City, about twenty miles southwest of Xingshan is Tashan City, and dozens of miles southwest of Tashan is another important military town outside the Ming Dynasty.

There is no doubt that for the strategic purpose of supervising war and deterrence, Tashan, a major city located in the rear, is undoubtedly the best choice.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Therefore, after leading the army into Liao Town, Yan decisively led the army and supplies, food and grass to enter this important Liaodong town.

The war in Liaodong had already begun, but in Yan Shun's opinion, he could not imagine that the war could be so embarrassed in such an indestructible line of defense that the court had consumed countless manpower and material resources!

As the name suggests, the Guanning Jin defense line is a line of defense built by Shanhaiguan, Ningyuan and Jinzhou, the three absolute military cities. Among these three military cities, there are countless large and small fortresses, filling any possible loopholes.

In Yan Shun's view, if the Later Jin Dynasty wanted to attack and not attack Jinzhou, it would be difficult for it to threaten any castle behind.

Fighting around the city is a taboo in military strategists, not to mention a strategic line of defense like Guan Ningjin!

But this is not the case.

Between Ningjin, the Later Jin came and went freely. There were so many forts in the Hou Jin, so the Later Jin only needed to leave a force to deter the troops. The defenders in the city stayed honestly in the city like quails, and did not dare to have any courage to fight head-on with the Later Jin.

The defense line that should have advanced and attacked and retreated and defended, and has completely lost the option of attack, leaving only defense, and it is really a guard who has completely huddled in the city...

The strategic dominance that should have been held in the hands of the Ming Dynasty was completely completely lost and was controlled by the Later Jin. The Later Jin could attack and retreat.

This magnificent defense line that consumed countless manpower and material resources was strong. Following the back garden of our home, we came and went freely!

Yan Shun looked down on the border army of Liaozhen, which was once the so-called elite Ming Dynasty.

He even thought that if the general led his army here and the Later Jin dared to be so reckless, the so-called Later Jin would probably no longer exist.

It is precisely because of this that the important town in the rear that Yan Shun had carefully selected, and the two words behind had obviously lost their meaning. With the situation of the Later Jin plundering at will, Ning Jin was all front lines, so there was no rear to speak of.

This situation naturally disrupted Yan Shun's many plans. It is naturally impossible not to participate in the war. Moreover, if Liaozhen defends the city, if it is really just a defense, there is probably no one to support him.

In this way, you have to change your strategy.

As long as he nailed it tightly and let the Later Jin see the sharpness of the military force in the Beijing camp, then the Later Jin would never dare to easily mobilize the main force to the south of the desert, and the tasks assigned by the general could still be completed.

However, this expectation seems to have made some mistakes.

Tens of thousands of troops stationed in Tashan, so the supply of grain and grass naturally requires passing through Liao Town. Recently, the number of times the grain and grass has been attacked and burned by the Later Jin Rangers has become increasingly common.

Tashan was originally behind, and after Tashan was Ningyuan, after Ningyuan, Shanhaiguan, and after Shanhaiguan, we were almost at the capital...

In this way, the rear of the rear, and the rear of the important town, could not even be kept in a grain channel...

This is no longer a question of the weakness of soldiers and generals. If there is no trick in this, Yan Shun would not believe it.

After reporting his guess to Li Xiu, he no longer had any hope for the Liao Town. He decisively invited a battalion of Liao Town soldiers from Tashan to leave Tashan City. At the same time, he ordered his only cavalry battalion to go out of the city to protect the food road and seize the time to stockpile the food and grass.

But no matter whether it is the Later Jin Dynasty or the Liao Town, it is obvious that Yan Shun will not give time to prepare calmly.

Just like the Guanning Jin defense line and the huge Liaozhen border army did not exist, Dai Shan led the main army of the Later Jin Dynasty in a dignified manner, passing through Daling River Fort, through Jinzhou, through Songshan, Xingshan, and Daxing Fort, and directly surrounded Tashan like a divine weapon descending from the sky.

This operation really made Yan Shun disgusted. If he was in Shanhaiguan, would the Later Jin army simply pass through the entire Guanningjin defense line and directly descend into Shanhaiguan?

The changes in the war are so unpredictable. Yan Shun, who should have been the deterrent of the war, has now become the main force in the battle with the Later Jin Dynasty, and Liao Town, which should have been the main force, at this moment...

Uh... in "Terror to rescue!"

Since Tashan was surrounded by Daishan, Yuan Chonghuan dispatched troops and generals to Jinzhou and Ningyuan, two directions, using the strategy of "two-sided attacks" to surround the main force of the Later Jin Dynasty.

But, the Later Jin soldiers were very strong, and the support army was "deadly" blocked by the Later Jin Dynasty and could not make any progress.

After several days of hard fighting, the military reports of losing troops and losing their generals, and asking for help were also sent to the capital one by one, causing noise throughout the city!
