Chapter 1387 Hurriedly responded
The current situation is difficult for Hauge to decide.
If Wang Yan is attacking the east and west, feints to attack the front, and tries to break through the defense of the Jin army from the southern front, then it is really of little significance for him to defend the front, but if Wang Yan is playing the game of diverting the tiger from the mountain, intending to let him transfer troops to support Wu Sangui, and then forcibly break through the front and directly rescue the Ming army and horse army in Lintong, then the ratio of forces on the battlefield will be immediately unbalanced, and he will also lose immediately.
Hauge couldn't help but feel annoyed, Fang Cai's self-satisfied color was gone, and it was replaced by a dilemma.
Tang Tong frowned slightly, as a courtier, studying the temperament of the lord and figuring out the intention is one of the basic homework of an official. An old fritter like him who has experienced Ming Shun and Qing Jin, looked at Hauge's expression, and knew that Hauge's old mistake had been committed again.
"General Chen, is the King of Shu sure that it is the main force of the 120,000 Ming Army?" Tang Tong pursed his lips, looking like Chen Junji and asked, "Could there be a man pretending to be a regular soldier, so he is suspicious?" β
The plan of the suspicious soldiers, the truth and the truth, just make people unable to see through, Tang Tong also carefully observed the Ming army's large array, and the more than ten phalanxes behind them were all sitting on the ground, very suspicious, but who knows, was it Wang Yan's deliberate doing, so that they thought it was a people's husband, but in fact they were all elite soldiers?
Hauge is not sure now, he has been frightened by Wang Yan, and the cunning of that guy makes Hauge feel that every step he takes will fall into his trap.
Tang Tong didn't dare to make a decision, so he opened his mouth to ask Chen Junji for more information to corroborate each other and help Haoge make a decision.
Chen Junji was stunned for a moment, but he didn't think of the way to transfer the tiger from the mountain, he was asked by several people, and he was almost taken into the ditch, and he was a little suspicious that the southern front was the main force of the Ming army, after all, there was no fighting, who can tell.
For a while, Chen Jun did not dare to answer easily, because once he made a mistake in judgment, it might make Haoge make a wrong judgment, if it was really a tiger to leave the mountain, then he would definitely have no good fruit to eat in the future.
Haoge listened to Tang Tong's words, and couldn't help but also set his eyes on Chen Junji, which made his nervous forehead sweat, and he tried to recall in his mind the scene of meeting the Ming army.
Suddenly, Chen Junji's eyes lit up, "Your Majesty, the Duke of the Kingdom, and the ministers think that it is indeed the main force of the Ming army. β
Hauge couldn't help but ask, "What do you say?" How can you decide? β
Chen Junji clenched his fists and saluted, "When the minister marched north with the king of Shu, the Ming army was coming, and the army marched in the form of a battle formation, with clear banners and swords and guns. β
Haoge's face sank when he heard this, and Tang Tong lightly slammed his fist on Chen Junji's shoulder socket, "General Chen, you have made meritorious contributions." β
After speaking, he turned his head to look at Hauge, and saluted: "Your Majesty, the people sitting on the ground in the rear of the Ming army must be indiscriminate, and the main direction of the Ming army's attack should be the southern front." β
After Chen Junji's words were finished, Tang Tong and the others reacted that the situation was not optimistic. There is no doubt that they were confused by Wang Yan's performance and fell into the trick of the Ming army. The Ming army obviously planned carefully for this matter, and the purpose was to defeat the southern front of the Jin army and outflank their back road.
Hauge stood, his chest heaving, his nostrils exhaling a few times in succession, but he couldn't calm his mood, he was a little reluctant to accept the result.
If it is to divert the tiger from the mountain, it means that Haoge was not played by Wang Yan, his strategy and plan are very correct, most of the Ming army will be defeated, and he can rely on this battle to gain great prestige and increase his imperial power after the war.
If it is a sound attack on the west and a feint attack on the front, it means that he was played by Wang Yan from the beginning. This not only made it difficult for him to swallow the evil anger in his heart, but it was also a huge blow to his prestige, and Wu Sangui and others would question his ability.
As soon as the external threat is eliminated, he may also be tired of dealing with the internal situation in the Jin Kingdom.
However, Chen Junji's words have made the whole incident clear, since the Ming army on the southern front is advancing in battle formations without confusion, it is undoubtedly the main force of the Ming army. This forced Hauge to swallow the bitter fruit and admit that he had indeed fallen for the trick.
Hauge was silent for a while, gritted his teeth, and said in a hateful voice, "The king thief is cunning, this person is not dead, and it is rare for me to live in peace." β
Many Jin generals have a somewhat solemn expression, the whole battlefield is too vast, and now they have to be rearranged, and they don't know if they are in a hurry, in case Wu Sangui is defeated, let the Ming army detour from the south to the back of the western front, then they can only jump into the Weishui.
It's useless to hate Wang Yan now, if the curse works, Dolgon would have taken Wang Yan away long ago, he hates Wang Yan even more than Hauge, but isn't Wang Yan still alive and tormenting Dajin Kingdom.
Many golden generals were silent for a while, Chen Junji still remembered his mission, he saw that Haoge's face was ugly, and he only dared to remind in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the King of Shu is still waiting for reinforcements." β
These words brought everyone's thoughts back, Haoge's face was cloudy, and it was useless to be angry now, the important thing was to respond accordingly according to the strategy of the Ming army.
At this time, Haoge's mind was a mess, and he turned his head and asked, "Tang Qing, what do you think you should do?" β
Many Jin generals discussed for a while, and Hauge himself was also thinking about how to deal with the Ming army.
The battlefield of the two battles is very broad, hundreds of thousands of horses and dogs are fighting each other, and the distance between them is a few miles to dozens of miles, and they can't see each other.
Li Benshen thought for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty, since the King of Shu is asking for help, and the southern line is the direction of the main attack of the Ming army, if the Ming army breaks through the southern line and returns to Lintong, the Tun army there will not be able to resist it at all." Please lead the people of the headquarters and gallop to help immediately. β
Tang Tong stretched out his hand and stopped: "Wait! The crowd couldn't help but look at him, wondering what his opinion was. Li Benshen is right, if the southern front is broken through, the entire flank of the Jin State has no soldiers and horses to defend, if the Ming army is allowed to rush directly to Lintong, then the Jin army will be dumplings.
"Your Majesty, supporting the southern front is tantamount to being led by the nose by the Ming army." Tang Tong felt everyone's gaze and hurriedly explained: "Our original plan was to consume the Ming army in the middle and flank the north and south to flank the enemy. Now the middle road did not play a role in depleting the Ming army, and the plan to flank the north and south flanks had failed. If we transfer troops to the south road to support the king of Shu, we may be able to block the Ming army on the southern front, but Wang Yan can also transfer troops to support the northern line and block the king of Yongping, so that the war will be stalemate. β
Hauge frowned, "But if the southern front is broken, then the army will fail, and it is better to be stuck than to fail!" β
"Has Your Majesty forgotten Hanzhong and Northern Shaanxi?" Tang Tong sighed and said: "Count the time, these two Ming armies are almost here, we can only make a quick decision, and stalemate is equivalent to failure!" β
Hauge was shocked when he heard this, "What does the Qing family think it should be?" β
"Increase troops on the northern front, bet that the northern front of the Ming army will not be able to withstand it first!" Tang Tong straightened up and cut his teeth.
There was an uproar among the many gold generals, and Tang Tong's bet was a bit too big, so people didn't dare to bet with it.
This is tantamount to seeing whether Wu Sangui loses first or Zhang Mingzhen loses first. If Wu Sangui loses first, then the Dajin Kingdom will be finished, but if Zhang Mingzhen can't withstand it first, it will be a great defeat for the Ming army.
This is a bit too ruthless, many Jin generals can't accept it, Li Benshen said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks it's inappropriate, this is a way to cut off children and grandchildren, once you fail, you won't even have a chance to escape." If the chances of victory are quite large, the minister is willing to fight, but the southern front has already been fighting, and it is 100,000 urgent, at this time, the northern line will be increased, and the southern line will collapse before the soldiers arrive. In addition, even if the northern front is reinforced, won't the king thief reinforce the northern front? β
Hold the southern front, even if the war is stalemate, they will have a big deal to admit defeat and give up Chang'an, and they will still have the opportunity to flee west, but if the southern line is broken and the Ming army goes straight to Lintong and cuts off their back road, it is impossible to escape.
Tang Tong hugged his fists and said: "The king of Shu has 30,000 cavalry, should be able to maneuver for a period of time, the minister thinks that it should be too late to increase the northern line, and in order to prevent the king thief from reinforcing the northern line, the minister suggested that the army go out of the trench, attack the king thief head-on, and contain his men and horses in the front!" β
Both of them made sense, Hauge was embarrassed for a while, and at this moment, a cannonball smashed outside the command post, the soil splashed, crackling and falling on the cotton cloth above everyone's heads, which made everyone's hearts tremble, and their bodies reflexively squatted, and then stood up with palpitations.
"Your Majesty, the Ming army is firing artillery, and the front line is moving, I'm afraid it's going to attack again!" A general ran in in a panic.
"King thief!" Haoge gritted his teeth, he saw that everyone was looking at him, and when he made a decision, he groaned for a while, and finally spoke: "Li Benshen, you take 10,000 horses and quickly go to reinforce the King of Shu, and you must stabilize the southern line." After speaking, he looked at Tang Tong again, "Tang Qing, you take 20,000 people to the northern front immediately, and join forces with King Yongping, you must crush the defense of the Ming army and turn the tide." β
Li Benshen hurriedly received the order, but Tang Tong clenched his fists and wanted to speak, but Haoge waved his hand to stop him, "The Qing family doesn't need to say much, they just need to defeat the Ming army with all their might, and after the war, I will worship the Qing family as the king of Lintong County." β
This time there were only more than 40,000 people left in the 70,000 army, and Hauge immediately said to the remaining generals: "You will follow me to meet the king thief here, and I promise you that as long as you defeat the Ming army, you will be promoted to the next rankΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
