Chapter 311 will fight

It’s not that Qian Yue is conservative, but that he is actually lacking in military strength.

He only has 12,000 troops from the lieutenant, so it is not easy to intercept the Tatars' return. After all, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses will be defeated and flee, and once they are defeated and flee, it will definitely put huge pressure on Jinzhou.

His duty was to guard Jinzhou, and it was impossible for him to give up his responsibilities, but to attack Liaoyang. He knew Ying Yi's strategy - to kill the Tatars with vitality, not others.

For Qian Yue, the importance of occupying Liaoyang is more than the elite soldiers who intercepted the Tatars.

As long as the elite troops of the Tartars were wiped out, Liaoyang would be a meal on the plate, which was insignificant. If the living forces of the Tartars could not be wiped out, even if they were captured, the Tartars would still have a breath. Which one is more important can be seen at a glance.

This matter is operational, but Qian Yue can produce at most 3,000 soldiers and horses, so it is impossible to have more. As for the fraudulent city, Qian Yue has no expectations at all. If Wu Sangui's soldiers can cheat the capital of the Tartars, then the Tartars trust the traitors too much, right?

What's more, it's at such a critical moment? The battle of national destiny!

Therefore, internal response is particularly important. With internal response, it is not only easy to break the city. For Qian Yue, if Zu Dashou can connect a group of traitors to redirect it into internal response, the forces established by traitors in the hearts of the Tartars over the years may have a miraculous effect on suppressing Liaoyang.

Liaoyang is the Kyoto of the Tartars. At least half of the Tartars' tribes live in it. If Qian Yue sends 3,000 people, plus Wu Yinglin's 8,000 people, it will be unable to suppress it at all. Instead, it will be dragged into the quagmire.

Wu Yinglin knew what Qian Yue meant and said, "Please rest assured, the inner person had already made a decision. Occupy Liaoyang is not the goal."

"Oh?" Qian Yue changed his mind: "Oh."

Understood.

"Do you want to capture and kill the Tartar royal family?" he said.

Wu Yinglin bowed and showed admiration: "General wise!"

"If this is the case, the feasibility is huge." Qian Yue thought for a while: "Well, I will dispatch three thousand soldiers to Liaoyang with you. You Zu Dashou is the inner supporter, not for occupation, but for just capturing and killing the family of the Tartars. It is also easy."

"Thank you, General!"

...

At Sanshanying Fort, Dorgon woke up in the middle of the night, and there was a cold feeling behind him.

He put on a single dress and walked out, and saw the bright moon in the sky, and the moonlight was like fog, which was particularly hazy.

"It's almost August fifteenth? The Han people's Mid-Autumn Festival is indeed bright moon hanging high." He felt a move in his heart and suddenly thought.

"The Han people reunite in Mid-Autumn Festival, like the full moon, full of roundness. But now I am trembling and unable to sleep in the middle of the night." Dorgon sighed: "Ama shouted in his dream, and his eyes were covered in blood. It's not a good omen."

He was awakened by a nightmare and his heart was stumbled.

"The Xia bandits sent troops every day, but only 3,000 people were aimlessly attacking the Four Village Fortresses, which was obviously suspected of training. The Xia bandits rose for only two years, and although they were as vast as the sky, their foundation was probably insufficient. I believe that the new recruitment horses after the Ming Dynasty really needed to be cultivated."

Thinking of this, Dorgon showed a self-deprecating look: "I didn't expect that my elite soldiers of the Qing Dynasty have now become someone else's training. It's really sad."

"He didn't move his troops, and he clearly had other things to do. What was he going to do?" Dorgon's thoughts turned, and it was hard to understand.

He never thought that Ying Yi wanted to catch all the troops in one go. He thought that hundreds of thousands of soldiers would be impossible to catch all the troops in one go.

He didn't know that Ying Yi's main target was the 70,000-full-Eight Banners in Sanshan Camp.

But Dorgon still felt the crisis.

It is not a false statement to ride a tiger. Initiating a battle of national destiny, Dorgon took advantage of Ying Yi's weakness of just starting a trend and lacking foundation. He knew deeply that time was unfriendly to him. At this stage of development of the Qing Dynasty, if it was to continue to grow, it would be possible to go south. If Ying Yi did not defeat Ying Yi, the Qing Dynasty would have no chance. Once it was delayed, when Ying Yi swept the country and held the power of millions of people, the Qing Dynasty would have no chance.

"What are the Xia thieves waiting for?" Dorgon thought repeatedly: "Is it a war in the north? Yes, the Tatars should not be underestimated after all."

"That's why Ama and his brother suppressed each other. If the Tatars do their best, they can still gather 100,000 troops. One hundred thousand is not a minority. Shanhaiguan has less than 30,000 troops. It seems that a lot of troops have been deployed along the north line. I'm afraid they are waiting for the battle report there... waiting for victory?"

"Once the Tatars were defeated, the Xia thieves could gather all their troops and fight me to a decisive battle. I think this is the idea."

Dorgon felt a little convinced: "You can't wait for him to gather his troops, at most five days, at least three days. If there is no news from the Tatars, I will fight him to a decisive battle."

Standing in the moonlight for a long time, Dorgon sighed and decided the fate of the clan, which was right in front of him. Although he had made a decision, his uneasiness could not be suppressed.

He couldn't help but miss the Ming court and Chongzhen a little. If it were still the Ming court, how great would it be?

"Why do Han people always have heroes whenever their country is destroyed?"

Such thoughts gradually arose and gradually disappear.

Shanhaiguan, August 14th. Ying Yi had breakfast in the morning and patrolled the city. By noon, many military newspapers were gradually spread to his hands.

"Is there any movement in the Tartars in Sanshanying?"

Ying Yi looked at a military newspaper in his hand and was slightly excited: "The Tartars have signs of mobilization, and it seems that Dorgon is also preparing for a decisive battle."

Putting down the military newspaper, Ying Yi thought, "I wonder what day Dorgon planned?"

Ying Yi knew Dorgon’s progress and retreat very well, but he was sure that Dorgon would not retreat easily. The battle of national fortunes was not something that could come at any time or leave at any time? This is not a tourism.

Once retreating, it will not only bring a huge blow to the morale of the whole clan, but it will also be an indelible stain on Dorgon himself. Once retreating and returning to Liaoyang, Dorgon will definitely face the attack of the Eight Banners Lord. At that time, he, the regent, may not be able to sit steadily.

There is only strong support and only war, and it is hard to move forward and retreat, but for Dorgon, there is actually only one way to go.

At this point, the offensive and defensive momentum is already in a different position.

"Come."

Ying Yi called out, and Zhang Si pushed the door and entered: "Your Majesty!"

Ying Yi said: "Call Zhu Bingkun and others."

"Here!"

Not long after, Zhu Bingkun and other generals arrived.

Ying Yi said: "The Tartars have already made movements, and they are afraid they have the intention of a decisive battle. But how can they make them happy? The initiative is in my palm, and the generals will go down and prepare immediately. If Qian Yue's news does not arrive today, they will send troops to attack at night!"

He said: "Now make specific tactical arrangements."

He pulled a map: "The main target was the troops of the Tartars headquarters of Sanshan Camp. The Tartars had 70,000 people, and six large camps were established with Sanshan Camp as the center. The defense was not airtight. But it was irrelevant, just a strong attack. I was not afraid of him defending, but I was afraid that he would run away."

"Sanshan Camp is located between the three mountains. Although the mountain is not high, it is also a barrier. There are three roads between the three mountains. I divided the troops into three routes and surrounded them."

"There are only 18,000 people in the pass, and three thousand people are left to guard the pass, and the remaining 15,000 people are left. I will take three thousand guards to do the same route, and Zhu Bingkun leads him in the other two routes. I don't care about how to attack me."

Ying Yi clicked on the way to the east of Sanshanying and said, "I will take a detour to cut off his retreat."

He also said: "I'll ask Zhenren Zhang and Zhenren Wang to join the army later. If there are strange people in the Tartars, you must be careful. Governor Zhu, remember not to be careless."

Zhu Bingkun hesitated for a moment, stood up and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the two real people, Zhang and Wang, can follow you."

Ying Yi shook his head and smiled and said, "It's up to you. It's decided."
