[0554 Huang Taiji abandons Zhenjiang Fort and Phoenix City]
"Isn't this a good opportunity? Jiannu is transferring troops from Anshan to Tianshui Station, which is equivalent to giving Anshan to you! Immediately let people guard Anshan, and intercept the Jiannu army in Anshan halfway, and strive to eat these thousand people! Sun Chengzong said.
"Teacher, if you eat a thousand Jiannu in the wild, do you know how many people we are going to die?" Wei Bao frowned and said, "Although the loss will be smaller than the siege, Jiannu really can't eat it if you want to." ”
"Yes, teacher, this has to be thought about." Yuan Chonghuan also said: "After all, Xiaobao's people are ordinary people, not a real army, don't wait to fight the tiger, but be injured by the tiger." ”
"Then what are you doing between Sweet Water Station and Lianshan Pass? Isn't that what you want to do with Jiannu? Could it be that so many armies are just to scare Jiannu? Sun Chengzong said disapprenousively: "Since you have to fight sooner or later, how can you give up such a good opportunity?" You can dispatch half of the army, surround but not annihilate! Entangle this group of Jiannu and don't let them enter the Sweetwater Station, and don't let them escape to other places! Make full use of your strength advantage to trap this group of Jiannu, just see if the Jiannu of Tianshui Station and Lianshan Pass can't come out to the rescue! The battlefield needs variables, this is a godsend, God has given you the best variable! ”
After Sun Chengzong finished speaking, his face was full of excitement and stood up.
Wei Bao admired Sun Chengzong, and always said that Sun Chengzong was the commander of the city, and he had not fought any battles with Jiannu in the past few years in Liaodong, and would only defend the city.
In fact, otherwise, Sun Chengzong did not fight with Jiannu, which shows that Sun Chengzong has an old way of arranging troops, and Jiannu can't find a flaw and dare not fight with Sun Chengzong!
Originally, the Ming Dynasty only needed to restrict Jiannu, but if the north could maintain the situation when Sun Chengzong was there, Jiannu would have no place to develop.
As soon as he heard Sun Chengzong's routine, Wei Bao knew that Sun Chengzong would not only defend the city, but also attack in the wild.
It's okay to surround but not fight, trap these thousand Jiannu, the pressure is not great!
"Teacher, half of the men dispatched are more than 40,000 people, and I am worried that more than 40,000 of us may not be able to entangle a thousand Jiannu! Jiannu's individual combat ability, the teacher should be clear, right? It is no problem to fight at least one infantry of the Ming army to fight seven or eight, and to fight our common people, one can fight dozens of them. Wei Bao hesitated.
If Wei Bao hadn't been here personally, if Hou San had received this information first, Hou San would not have hesitated so much, and would definitely have asked people to immediately besiege the 1,000-strong army of Jiannu, and not allow it to merge with the defenders of Tianshui Station.
"Little treasure! Don't miss the opportunity, hurry up and give the order! As long as you surround this group of Jiannu and attack on defense, these more than 1,000 people will definitely take the initiative to attack you! When the time comes, their losses will be great! Sun Chengzong said.
Wei Bao thought for a few seconds, although he felt very sorry for the people, he not only considered the problem from the perspective of the commander, but also considered the problem from the perspective of the ruler, and it was inevitable that he would think more.
However, Wei Bao still had some talent, and immediately got up and said to Hou San: "Order the 40,000 army to attack, bite, and trap the Jiannu army that has transferred from Anshan to Tianshui Station!" Defend as offense! Don't attack them, wait for them to pounce on you! Form a situation of encirclement and reinforcement! ”
Hou San agreed, and went to arrange it very simply, without a second of hesitation.
Sun Chengzong was very satisfied with Wei Bao's arrangement, "Okay, good chess!" Now these 1,000 people have become turtles in the urn! If one dies, one person will be missing, and if they are besieged for a day, they will have no food for a day! In the wilderness, you can't even eat rats on this kind of day! Even if they bring a little dry food with them, after a few rounds of rockets, no one will be able to take care of them, and the food will definitely burn out! They will definitely take the initiative to attack you in order to solve the problem quickly! Because they have nothing to eat, they absolutely have to fight quickly, and there is no other choice! ”
Wei Bao nodded yes, before making a decision, he was very distressed, he really made up his mind, and felt that it was actually okay.
Hou San mobilized more than 40,000 troops, the total strength was divided into two, and at the same time, half of the men and horses of the army guard and the escort team were also divided.
That night, after Wei Bao finished drinking, he arranged for Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan to rest and rest in the big tent.
Wang Qiuya and Wu Xuexia slept in the tent outside the big tent, and Wei Bao slept alone in the tent inside.
These days, Wei Bao has never recruited a woman to sleep, Wang Qiuya, Jin Shanggong, and a North Korean woman and a beautiful secretary of the president's secretariat.
In fact, except for Jin Shang Palace, Wei Bao has not recruited a woman other than the woman he intends to marry.
Wei Bao didn't plan to marry Jin Shanggong, but just regarded her as a palace maid, and didn't plan to give her a name.
In Wei Bao's heart, there is still some xenophobia, and he doesn't plan to marry a woman other than a Han girl.
If you want to be married by Wei Bao, you have to become a Han girl, which is exactly the same as the Han girl in all aspects, and it is possible to be exactly the same as the Han people in terms of culture and national identity.
This requires a process, and some foreign women may be able to do it quickly, and some people may not be able to do it in a lifetime, of course, Wei Bao will not say it clearly in advance.
If a woman like Jin Shanggong knows Wei Bao's thoughts, with a strong purpose, it can be done in a short period of time, and if it can't be done, it will be disguised. In that case, it's hard to tell.
The next day, the news reached Wei Bao's camp, and the Bao army had besieged and killed more than 1,000 Jiannu troops who had marched from Anshan to Tianshui Station.
It was the authentic army of the Guards and the Army Guards that first entangled the Jiannu army, and then tens of thousands of people surrounded it, forming a huge encirclement around the Jiannu army.
At the same time, the news also spread back to the camp of Jiannu.
When Huang Taiji heard this, he was like being struck by lightning.
I didn't expect Wei Baojun's speed to be so fast.
Originally, Huang Taiji didn't want to mobilize his troops at this juncture, because there was a high chance that he would be discovered and surrounded by Wei Baojun, just like now.
However, Huang Taiji took into account that the defense of Tianshui Station was weak, and it was of great significance to effectively protect Lianshan Pass, so he took the risk of letting the defenders of Anshan rush to Tianshui Station at this time, but he didn't expect that his luck psychology was still educated, and Wei Baojun's reaction was really so fast.
"Now the battle situation has changed significantly, and more than 1,000 people of my army that I withdrew from Anshan are besieged by Wei Bao's army in this position! What do you say? Huang Taiji pointed out the location of the besieged army on the map and asked the generals below.
As usual, no one said anything, and when they said that they agreed to transfer more than 1,000 defenders from Anshan to Tianshui Station, everyone agreed, and no one could shirk responsibility, and now that something happened, not everyone could come up with a solution.
"Send troops to rescue, if you don't save it, this more than 1,000 army will be wiped out!" Yue Tuo Road.
Huang Taiji frowned, with a very painful expression, "Where do we have troops?" If 500 people from the Sweetwater Station are moved, more than a thousand troops may not be saved, and the Sweetwater Station will definitely be breached! The soldiers and horses of Lianshan Pass can't move, if Lianshan Pass is lost, the hearts of the generals of the entire southern Liaoning army will be scattered! It is very likely that he will be completely annihilated by Wei Bao's army. ”
Huang Taiji felt afraid, deep fear, fear that he had never felt before, as the deep winter continued, every day was like tormenting in the underworld, enduring the pain of cooking in a frying pot.
"Either give up the Sweetwater Station! Give me 500 people, and I will bring 500 people from Tianshui Station, and gather 1,000 men and horses, I will definitely be able to rescue the trapped army, and when the time comes, I will return directly to Lianshan Pass! Yue Tuo proposed.
"If you give up the Sweetwater Station, Lianshanguan will be completely isolated! If you draw 500 troops from Lianshan Pass and Tianshui Station at the same time, you will send 1,000 troops out of the city! There are only 1,000 defenders left in Lianshan Pass! If we have 1,500 defenders, I am confident that we can withstand 40,000 or 50,000 Wei Bao troops! If there are only 1,000 people left, Wei Baojun is very likely to storm Lianshan Pass! When the time comes, if you can't come back outside, or if you are directly killed by Wei Baojun, who will I go to? Huang Taiji shook his head and said: "No, the most important thing at the moment is to hold the Lianshan Pass, otherwise there will be no way out!" You can't divide the troops! ”
Yue Tuo hurriedly said: "Do you not save yourself when you see death?" That's more than 1,000 horses! ”
"Do you know more than a thousand horses by now? When you were on the outskirts of Gaizhou, you lost five or six thousand dead and wounded, how did you not know more than a thousand horses? "Huang Taiji doesn't have a good airway.
"Then I won't transfer people from Lianshan Pass, I will take the five hundred defenders of Tianshui Station to fight with Wei Baojun, and I will definitely be able to rescue more than 1,000 people and horses, if I can't save them, it's a big deal to die with them!" Yue Tuo said with a red face and a frowning neck.
The generals agreed with Yue Tuo's idea, and they all said that they could not see death without help.
"Surrounded by tens of thousands of troops, can you save them with 500 people? Let's not talk about whether it can be saved or not, after losing the sweetwater station, Wei Baojun will attack Lianshan Pass when the time comes, and he will no longer have any scruples! Huang Taiji still couldn't make up his mind.
"The city of Lianshan Pass is strong, and the mountains are steep! Otherwise, it wouldn't be called Lianshan Pass! With 1,500 troops defending, it can withstand the attack of more than 50,000 enemy troops! Besides, we still have Qingtaiyu, Phoenix City and Zhenjiang Fort in our hands, even if we lose Lianshan Pass, Wei Baojun can't help us! Yue Tuo insisted.
The generals echoed and unanimously demanded to save people.
Lianshan Guancheng is the most important Guancheng in southern Liaoning, and the Guancheng is an important traffic pass leading to the capital of Liaodong.
Before the Tianshun year, it was still natural "the pass limited to the river", not the "border pass" with the Great Wall building, because Han Bin built ten forts and "barriers" in the fifth year of Chenghua in the Ming Dynasty when he refused to defend here, even the mountain pass became the inner pass again.
According to the "Inscription of the Liao Deputy General Army" by Hu Weiqing in the fifth volume of the "Quanliao Chronicles", "Art and Literature", it is recorded: "I became the ancestor and built the capital in Beijing, and Liaodong became a giant town in the northeast. Jingtai is eventful, Liaoyang began to be based on the river as the side (did not build the artificial Great Wall), to Tianshun set up a sub-guard general to seek the deputy commander-in-chief, open the government here, but the rules of its control, depending on the past, the old side of the east stop even the mountain pass. Today, the cities of Sanyang are in danger for thousands of miles. The last sentence refers to Han Bin's new barrier (Great Wall) in the fifth year of Chenghua.
The military does not move, which shows that the geographical location here is extremely important.
Easy to defend and difficult to attack, it has been a battleground for soldiers since ancient times.
Huang Taiji was upset by the noise, and he also knew that if he didn't save him when he saw death, it would cause great damage to his reputation!
"Have you ever thought about it, if you give up the sweetwater station and can't save people, even Shanguan is very likely to be unprotected! At that time, my entire army in southern Liaoning will be in danger! Huang Taiji shouted.
"Even if you can't keep the mountain pass, you can withdraw the army to Zhenjiang Fort, where there is enough grain and grass and three thousand troops! Even if Qingtaiyu and Phoenix City can't hold it, they will definitely be able to wait until the beginning of spring in Zhenjiang Fort, and wait until the Great Khan personally sends an army to rescue! Yue Tuo said.
Huang Taiji sighed, "I'm not afraid of death!" I'm afraid of delaying the great Khan's great cause! You know? All the land in southern Liaoning is lost, what is the use of just having a Zhenjiang Fort? If Wei Bao's army was heavily guarded, how many warriors' lives would the Great Khan have to pay for the capture of Lianshan Pass at that time? Maybe my Dajin Kingdom has fallen by now. ”
When Huang Taiji said this, a group of Jiannu generals also hesitated.
This is indeed a dilemma.
"It's not that I don't want to hear you, and I can't think about it now! If we don't save it, the more than 1,000 people and horses evacuated from Anshan will definitely be finished, and then Wei Baojun will definitely attack the soldiers and horses of Tianshui Station, and we will still face the decision of saving or not saving at that time! But at that time, it was easier to decide, and it was definitely to be rescued! Because Sweetwater Station has a city after all, although there are only 500 people, it is not easy to lose immediately! If Wei Baojun wants to take the Sweetwater Station, he will definitely pay huge casualties! "Huang Taiji Dao.
"Then what if Wei Baojun kills all the more than 1,000 soldiers and horses withdrawn from Anshan, and does not directly attack Tianshui Station, but attacks Lianshan Pass? The people and horses of Sweetwater Station will definitely come to the rescue, and when the time comes, Sweetwater Station will be lost, and the people and horses of Sweetwater Station will not be able to be saved! Yue Tuo said.
"It is not ruled out that Wei Baojun will do this, these people are very experienced in using soldiers, no worse than the soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty." Huang Taiji said: "If that's the case, we can at least make Wei Baojun pay more than 50,000 casualties!" If we abandon Lianshan Pass and flee to Qingtaiyu, we can take advantage of the lack of strength of Wei Bao's army outside the city and the weak combat effectiveness of individual soldiers, and attack from all sides. In short, it's better not to save this time than to save it! But if you don't save yourself when you die, it will damage the prestige of my Eight Banners Army! Yue Tuo listens to orders! Huang Taiji's words changed.
The generals of the Eight Banners were confused, and they couldn't figure out what Huang Taiji was going to do.
"Forget it, no matter what, the Sweetwater Station will definitely not be able to hold it! Yue asked you to take 500 men and horses, and bring 500 men and horses from Tianshui Station, and join forces with 1,000 troops, and strive to rescue the besieged Anshan soldiers and horses! If you can't save it, quickly return to Lianshan Pass, and you must not be besieged by Wei Baojun! "Huang Taiji Dao.
Although several methods were calculated, and Huang Taiji did not agree with Yue Tuo's idea, he finally agreed with Yue Tuo's initial advice.
Yue Tuo was overjoyed when he heard this, and replied loudly: "Yes, I will definitely live up to my mission, even if I can't save the besieged army, I will never let the people I bring with me be surrounded!" We should cooperate inside and outside, and this time we will definitely give Wei Baojun a head-on blow! If you can't do it, you can beat Mao Wenlong's soldiers and horses like Dai Shan, killing tens of thousands of them without leaving a piece of armor! ”
"Don't talk big ahead!" Huang Taiji said in a deep voice: "I explained in advance, no matter what you do outside, the thousand soldiers and horses of Lianshan Pass will definitely not leave the city!" We must hold on to the mountain pass. When the time comes, anyone who persuades me to send troops out of the customs will be killed! ”
"Yes, Baylor!"
The generals agreed in unison.
After repeated hesitation, Huang Taiji finally asked Yue Tuo to take the 500 people taken away from Lianshan Pass, plus all the 500 Jiannu defenders at Tianshui Station, a total of 1,000 troops, to relieve the siege.
Xie set out from Anshan and prepared to go to the siege of the 1,000 Jiannu army at Tianshui Station.
Yue Tuo's side has just come out, and the news has been passed to President Wei's big account.
"Surround him! How many people Jiannu dared to come out, they were all surrounded to death! Sun Chengzong was happy.
Wei Bao is sweating, Sun Chengzong is staying with him all day now, and if he is in the camp, the people below must be based on his intentions, he really doesn't like Sun Chengzong to be with him all day long, he can know everything.
"Teacher, I never ask how the people below me fight." Wei Bao laughed.
"How's that going to work? How can you leave everything alone in such a big event as a war? Sun Chengzong was very 'generous' and began to draw for Wei Bao: "Xiaobao, you immediately arrange for the most elite army to eat this group of Jiannu from Lianshan Pass, 20,000 people!" There are more than 20,000 people left, and they will stay here to continue the Jiannu defenders of Lianshan Pass! The group of Jiannu who came out must have been used to relieve the siege, and the besieged Jiannu and this group of Jiannu surrounded them together! Look at what Jiannu does! It's up to you now! ”
Wei Bao's head swept through three black lines, secretly wondering if this is Lao Tzu's army or your army? You can also command the soldiers and horses of Jiliao, the soldiers and horses below may not necessarily listen to you, you can't command the eastern border army at all, Mao Wenlong, you can't command it, right?
Wei Bao looked at Hou San: "You can make up your own mind, just when I'm not there, but if my teacher is a teacher, you will take it into account with the General Staff." ”
Hou San immediately replied, "Yes, Childe." I think what Master Sun said is feasible, the army of Jiannu who came out of the city from Lianshan Pass will be eaten as many as they come! Fighting in the field, after all, is better than storming Lianshan Pass. ”
Sun Chengzong was overjoyed when he heard this, and looked at Hou San with appreciation: "Hmm! You're right! Who are you under Xiaobao? Are you in command of all the soldiers and horses? ”
Hou San didn't dare to speak, and looked at Wei Bao.
Wei Bao smiled slightly and said to Hou San, "You go down and do your job." ”
"Yes, Childe." Hou San originally wanted to salute, but when he thought that Sun Chengzong was here, he gave his hand and said goodbye instead. He didn't call Wei Bao president as usual just now.
"He is just the manager of one of my firms, and the people below me are divided into hundreds of groups, and there are managers in all aspects, and there are hundreds of people in charge." Wei Bao explained to Sun Chengzong with a smile.
Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan glanced at each other, hundreds of such people? Isn't Wei Bao's subordinates more than the government's personnel?
Is this still a trade name? Or a Zhuangzi? There are hundreds of stewards, this is a court, right?
The longer they stay with Wei Bao, the more they have an in-depth understanding of the system under Wei Bao, the more Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan have the impression that Wei Bao is an independent court, because the political power, military power, and division are in good order, and they are simply more imperial than the imperial court.
The funniest and most terrifying thing is that Wei Bao has a long time in the dark, except for eating and drinking, it seems that there is only fun left, he really doesn't care about anything, and he is easier than the emperor.
Hou San sent 20,000 troops to surround 1,000 people from Yue Tuo's department, and sent 5,000 troops to Tianshui Station! The base camp left an army of about 18,000 people.
Both the Jiannu side and the Wei Bao side are nervously waiting for the outcome of this local war.
Two thousand Jiannu were divided into two pieces and desperately tried to rendezvous.
Wei Bao's two armies, 40,000 people all the way and 20,000 people all the way, desperately wanted to eat these two Jiannu.
However, Wei Bao's army did not attack, but surrounded but not attacked, and mainly trapped and defended in order to reduce casualties.
In Wei Bao's opinion, they have enough numerical advantage to trap Jiannu and not let them go, and Jiannu is already dead.
Jiannu can be contacted through wolf smoke in the field, Yue Tuo's department put wolf smoke, and the soldiers and horses of Jiannu on Anshan also put wolf smoke, and people on both sides can see each other's wolf smoke, which is less than 20 miles apart, but they can't get close, and both sides have launched wave after wave of attacks.
Mainly because Jiannu did not use a large-scale cavalry corps, if you use cavalry, it is not difficult to break the iron bucket formation of the infantry, but if the infantry is against the infantry, even if Jiannu's bow and arrow are powerful, the range is long, the accuracy is high, and it has a great advantage, it is difficult to break through the shield array.
After two days of attrition, more than 6,000 people died on the side of the Bao army, and Leng Shi blocked the three-digit attack of the Jiannu Thousand Brigade on both sides.
More than half of the 1,000-person Jiannu brigades on both sides were killed and wounded, and the total number of people was less than 800, but the Jiannu on both sides were not killed, and the wolf smoke would still be released every day.
Not only Wei Bao's battalion could see the wolf smoke, but Jiannu could even see the spies sent by Shanguan.
"Yue Tuo is also entangled! This is the worst news, I didn't expect Wei Baojun to be so powerful! Huang Taiji looked tired, he hadn't slept for many days, and he couldn't sleep!
Huang Taiji now regrets that he shouldn't have let Yue Tuo attack with the five hundred people from Lianshan Pass and the five hundred people from Tianshui Station!
Especially the five hundred defenders of Sweet Water Station, if these five hundred defenders do not move, Wei Bao's army will have to pay at least one or two thousand casualties if they want to capture Sweet Water Station!
When Wei Bao's army attacked Tianshui Station, Lianshan Pass could see wolf smoke, and he could also attack from time to time to disturb the periphery, even if he couldn't relieve the siege of Tianshui Station, it would greatly increase Wei Baojun's casualties.
Huang Taiji now regrets that he can't wait to hit the wall, hating himself for still valuing his reputation too much, valuing the opinions of others about him, and not keeping his heart!
"Yes, Baylor, we have already released wolf smoke yesterday, let Yue Tuo take people back quickly, don't care about the people in Anshan, he must have seen it, and he can't come back!" One of the advisors sighed.
"Let people bring a letter to Daishan! Give up Zhenjiang Fort! 2,000 soldiers and horses have been withdrawn! The 500 soldiers and horses of Phoenix City also withdrew, and together with the 500 soldiers and horses of Qingtaiyu, we only need to guard the two places of Lianshan Pass and Qingtaiyu! I can no longer go out to fight Wei Baojun. "Huang Taiji's eyes are all black around his eyes. The voice is also much hoarse than usual.
"Baylor, no! It's hard to get such an important city as Zhenjiang Fort, which can block a large area of the Yalu River! With Zhenjiang Fort, you can completely block Mao Wenlong's army on the other side! The counselor dissuaded.
"So what? Now Mao Wenlong has no city in southern Liaoning, but there is a Wei Bao, if Wei Bao occupies the entire southern Liaoning, wouldn't it be more terrible than Mao Wenlong? Just hold the mountain pass! We'll be able to counterattack! If it weren't for the fact that Qingtaiyu has the protection of Lianshan Pass and has the effect of being horns for each other, I don't even plan to defend Qingtaiyu, and I plan to let people all withdraw to Lianshan Pass! Huang Taiji said: "Can't you see it yet?" Although most of Wei Baojun's people were temporarily recruited, I don't know what method they used, these people are very supportive of Wei Bao! It is several times more than supporting Wei Bao than supporting the Ming court, or even more than ten times! If we don't mobilize our troops and horses, within three days, the two besieged armies outside the city will be annihilated, and at that time, the next spearhead of Wei Bao's army will be to storm Lianshan Pass! At that time, if you can't hold it, you won't be able to mobilize the people who want to mobilize the good! This is to abandon the car to protect the handsome, and it has to be done as a last resort! ”
The strategist said no more, thought for a moment, and nodded.
"Go and let people hurry up and give orders, don't delay any longer." Huang Taiji finished speaking weakly, and covered a little bit of slag hair with his two hands, which should have been a smooth forehead.
The area of Jiannu shaving in this era was larger than that of the middle and late Manchu Qing Dynasty.
At the beginning, Jiannu kept braids, but only left a small rub in the back, and two-thirds of his head was smooth.
In the middle and late Manchu Qing Dynasty, it may be because of the relationship between the Han people, anyway, the more they stay, the more they stay, the more they stay, basically half and half, with the vortex above their heads as the dividing line.
The strategist agreed, and quietly retreated, not daring to disturb Huang Taiji.
Huang Taiji did not ask for the opinions of the generals this time, but made a decision alone, the war has developed to this point, he does not want to discuss it with anyone, and even the thought of reporting the battle report to his father Khan Nurhachi, he is cold, thinking of his father Khan's eagle-like blazing eyes, which seem to burn everything, he is getting more and more chilled.
It's not all because he is afraid of Nurhachi's punishment and fear of falling out of favor among his brothers, but Huang Taiji himself can't accept such a failure, which is a great shame.
The next day, Dai Shan received an order from Huang Taiji.
Dai Shan did not hesitate, and when he heard that the two armies were besieged around the Tianshui Station, he immediately ordered the army to withdraw from Zhenjiang Fort! Before leaving, in addition to bringing enough food that could be taken away, the rest of the food that could not be taken away was ordered to be burned, and the houses inside Zhenjiang Fort were burned!
Zhenjiang Fort has been operated by Mao Wenlong for many years, and whether it is internal or external scale, it can rank in the top two in southern Liaoning, second only to Liaoyang City!
Dai Shan's crazy behavior not only caused a large number of houses in Zhenjiang Fort to catch fire, but also killed thousands of ordinary people.
Burning, killing and looting, the old business of Jiannu, is clean and neat, and it is very slippery.
Dai Shan's soldiers and horses passed through the Tang Station, and the defenders of the Tang Station quickly reported to the battalion, but did not dare to go out of the city to stop them.
There are 5,000 Wei Bao troops in Tang Station and Dangerous Mountain Fort, which is more than enough to defend the city, but if these soldiers and horses go out of the city and collide with Dai Shan's 2,000 army, it is tantamount to looking for death, so they don't dare to act rashly.
Moreover, the orders given by the General Staff of the Army Guards to these new troops were only to defend the city, and there was no order to go out of the city to fight.
However, after Tang Station passed through Phoenix City, the 500 Jiannu army of Phoenix City also went to Qingtaiyu to meet with the 500 defenders of Qingtaiyu and jointly defend Qingtaiyu, Tang Station sent 2,000 soldiers and horses to occupy Phoenix City, and sent 1,000 soldiers and horses to occupy Zhenjiang Fort.
Zhenjiang Fort was originally an important town of Mao Wenlong, Mao Wenlong was swept away by Jiannu that day, and there were only a few hundred people on Zhangzi Island, which was hundreds of miles away, so if he didn't dare to receive the news, or send troops, it must be much slower than Tangzhan Fort, which was only thirty or forty miles away from Zhenjiang Fort and Phoenix.
In fact, after Mao Wenlong lost Zhenjiang Fort, he never thought that Jiannu would take the initiative to give up Zhenjiang Fort after only a few days of hard work.
Although Mao Wenlong's spies returned to the northern part of southern Liaoning and the confrontation between the Bao army and the Jiannu army, Mao Wenlong did not feel that Wei Baojun had enough strength to force Huang Taiji to withdraw from the soldiers and horses of Daishan, who had captured Zhenjiang Fort.
Therefore, so far, almost none of the cities that Wei Baojun has obtained have been beaten by themselves, and they are all abandoned cities that have picked up Jiannu.
Only Liaoyang City was defeated by Wei Baojun, and it was not done by the army, but by the special team of the Liaonan Station of the Statistics Bureau, which could not be regarded as an attack in the strict sense, nor could it be regarded as a tough battle.
Wei Bao has always been very opposed to tackling tough battles, which is consistent with his character, and also with the Tai Chi he practiced later, although he found a Shaolin authentic martial artist, but Wei Bao only used Shaolin Kung Fu as an opponent to confirm Tai Chi, and did not practice two kinds of kung fu at the same time, the martial artists of the two factions, Tai Chi Chang Wuye and Shaolin Cheng Zongyou Master also think that practicing kung fu on both sides at the same time will go wrong, and it will not go crazy, not martial arts, but it may outweigh the losses, and both sides will not learn well.
Originally, Wei Bao was not particularly keen on martial arts, and wanted to become a martial arts master or something, he just wanted to keep fit and strengthen his body, so he has been specializing in practicing Tai Chi and Tai Chi sticks.
The more profound the Tai Chi Kung Fu he learned, the more rounded Wei Bao's personality became, more soft, and less like the front face.
Although most of the military deployments and military operations below are decided by the subordinates themselves, many times they just copy the orders to President Wei at the same time as they are issued.
But every time the people below will get President Wei's approval, President Wei will point out his opinions, and he will think that it is so good or not, and what are the shortcomings.
The people below naturally need to speculate on the president's thoughts, knowing that the president doesn't like large casualties and doesn't like to attack cities.
Occasional attacks on the city are at most in the form of expulsion, and at least forty or fifty times the enemy's strength before attacking the city.
The character of an army depends on the character of the first commander.
And the character of the founder of this army will determine the basic character of the entire army.
Therefore, if it is a cold weapon, although Wei Bao's army is stronger than any army in this era in terms of military discipline, level, rank, and detachment, it will not have much advantage.
However, Wei Bao knew this, but he was not very worried, what he wanted was military discipline and obedience, and he didn't think about making any ace troops with one as ten, Wei Bao's direction of developing the army focused more on the upgrading of weapons.
