Chapter 303: Breaking the siege of Ningyuan
At this moment, news came from the observation post that the camp of Jiannu was found packing, and it was obvious that the Houjin army was going to retreat. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Jiannu hadn't really set off yet, Huang Sheng sent the report documents to Beijing as soon as possible, and he won all ten battles, and the siege of Ningyuan was solved.
The great talent finally fought a decisive battle with the Houjin army, and the desperate warriors relied on the warships commanded by Huang Mingdao, the commander of the water camp on Juehua Island, to forcibly land in Ningyuandong and form a formation, still pushing the bomb cart that was sparkling to rush into battle, killing and wounding more than 1,000 Jiannu.
It's a pity that tens of thousands of Jiannu horses pressed on the corpse, our army was too small to avoid its edge, retreated to the warship, because many warships in order to meet the robe did not have time far from the shore, by the Jiannu cavalry impact, the soldiers chose to die together, have lit the powder keg, and finally the jade was burned.
Although the Ming army won a great victory, it did not repel the Houjin army, but forced back Jiannu to relieve the siege of Ningyuan, and did not gain too much, only 30 levels of real slaves, including the first level of Bashiku and the sixth level of Bayala.
Due to the fierce fighting, the soldiers under his command suffered 2,000 casualties, and the ships lost nearly 30%, although the morale was like a rainbow, it was difficult to fight again. Seeing Jiannu slowly retreating but unable to pursue, Jiannu only suffered a small setback, its losses were limited, and its combat effectiveness was still the same, and the men and horses under the command of Lord Huang were not enough to resist.
With the foreshadowing of the previous nine real battles against the head of the real slave, none of the civil and military officials of the imperial court questioned that Huang Sheng's victory killed and injured more than 1,000 Jiannu had water, even if this time the victory was unsatisfactory, because Jiannu did retreat from under Ningyuan City.
This is the strategy, tell the truth nine times first, and make a big lie ten times, and everyone can't help but believe it!
Not only that, but the adults of the imperial court also thought that the great talent was particularly humble and an absolutely honest man. He can obviously say that he led the troops to defeat Jiannu.
But he actually told the truth that the strength of the Houjin army was not damaged, but he retreated in the face of difficulties, and admitted that his people were not opponents.
Let the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty believe that due to the Huang Da manpower war, let Jiannu give up attacking Ningyuan City because there is still corroboration, and Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of Liaodong, also came to the good news, boasting that he led the Ningyuan army and people to use cannons to kill thousands of Jiannu, and Jiannu attacked the city without hope and fled, without mentioning the matter of Huang Sheng's siege at all.
The governor of Liaodong's report was completely empty talk, and there was no first-class victory at all.
Huang Sheng's ten battles and ten victories have all been proven, and the judgment is high. What about the equipment and heads of more than 200 Jiannu on display in the Yamen of the Ministry of War, Yuan Chonghuan said that he hid in Ningyuan City and killed thousands of Jiannu, and beat them away, who believes it?
After only half a day, the military department received the news that Jinzhou was besieged again, and everyone despised Yuan Chonghuan even more, didn't it mean that Jiannu had fled in the wilderness? Now they are under the city of Jinzhou! You, the governor of Liaodong, should have said something, right?
The civil and military officials all thought that Lord Huang was a young man, and every time he reported the truth, he honestly said that Jiannu was not unable to fight anymore, but was unwilling to retreat desperately with the Ming army.
Wang Zhichen decided to give the slippery Yuan Chonghuan some eye medicine and write to the court, since Yuan Chonghuan shouted that Jiannu was beaten by his Ning Yuanjun and fled! Just make persistent efforts and work hard, and then defeat the Jiannu under Jinzhou City!
He made arrangements, urged the governor of Liaodong to lead Ningyuan's men and horses to relieve the siege of Jinzhou, and ordered Huang Sheng to lead his men and horses to garrison Ningyuan to rest.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse and the Nine Thousand Years Old already hated this villain who could only brag, and immediately ordered Yuan Chonghuan to leave Ningyuan and let the talented man enter Ningyuan City to rest.
The next day, Ningyuan came in a hurry for 600 miles, Yuan Chonghuan wrote that Ning Yuan's soldiers were able to fight with firearms in Jiancheng, and they had no ability to rescue Jinzhou.
The hundred officials of the imperial court despised this shameless fool even more, and in the end, the military department had no choice but to ask Lord Huang to take the people and horses to act at the opportunity, and to relieve the siege of Jinzhou if he could do it.
It's just a letter from the Ministry of War to discuss with Lord Huang if he can work hard again, can he go to Jinzhou to help round the field?
This time there is not even a holy decree, why? The Emperor of the Apocalypse is embarrassed, in case he reaches the holy decree that has been approved red, Lord Huang is really unable to fight anymore and chooses to resist the decree.
People have great merit in hand, and they do suffer heavy losses, and they can't reduce their guilt, so they can only choose to pinch their noses and admit it, isn't it a slap in the face.
Moreover, it had just happened that the governor of Liaodong, who would not leave Ningyuan Jiancheng, refused to carry out the emperor's will, and he wrote to defend himself: Chonghuan took the safety of Ningyuan's army and people as his own responsibility, and knew that Jiannu was surrounded by reinforcements, and he defended the land for the sake of the imperial court, and he must not let tens of thousands of troops be wiped out because of foolish loyalty.
The Ming Dynasty was different from the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the servility of the officials was not serious, especially the civil officials were more bullish, and they said too much to the emperor, and the holy decree of criticizing the red was even better, and most of the civil officials refused to implement the decree directly issued by the emperor.
At this time, Ning Yuan was on the front line, for the sake of national interests, the Emperor of the Apocalypse endured it and did not change the commander in battle, but he was also very angry, and it was necessary to settle accounts after the autumn.
Huang Sheng knew the direction of history, and after not stirring up the situation by himself, the Jin army was in vain this time, and the eighth elementary army retreated in early June.
I inserted a lever myself, and the battle of Jiannu was even more uncomfortable, where did they have any reason to insist?
Of course, Huang Sheng will have a high profile, not to have anything to do with the governor of Liaodong, and choose to die for the imperial court.
Then Lord Huang Sheng's desperate letter arrived at the Ministry of War, he informed Lord Wang Zhichen that his carriage was loaded with 500 catties of gunpowder, and only the remaining 5,000 Ming soldiers were carrying powder kegs, and everyone left their last words to prepare for a general attack on Jiannu on the seventh day of June, and fought until the city of Jinzhou, and if it was unsuccessful, it became a benevolent.
People have to die than people, goods have to be thrown, Yuan Chonghuan, who has many soldiers, has a wide range of turtles and shrinks Ningyuan City, and Lord Huang Sheng, who has survived ten battles, still rises up and bombs Jiannu, and does not solve the siege of Jinzhou.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was so moved when he saw that the military department Shangshu had transferred the performance of Lord Huang, and asked Wang Zhichen to publish the fateful letter of the great talent in the imperial palace newspaper to announce it to the world and make a name for the brave and loyal talent.
Zhang Zhiji saw the Di Bao and went to find his sister as soon as possible, is this uncle stupid? The monstrous work has been done, and you need to work hard again?
Huang Sheng was afraid that his family would be worried, so he sent Huan'er back to Beijing, for fear of a mistake, so he didn't write a letter at all, but asked the little girl to tell the truth about what she saw and heard in Zhongming Fort to the master's mother, but she couldn't reveal a little bit to others.
The two secretaries have dealt with too much information during this period of time, Huan'er and Le'er, the two children, are educated and confidants, of course they know how to arrange troops, and they know that none of the Huang family horses were killed in battle, only dozens of light and serious wounded.
The two pro-soldiers Wuyi and Zuo Shouquan escorted Huan'er to Tianjin Wei by horse and boat, and transferred to the official road to gallop to the Beijing Division, which was only one day later than the six hundred miles of urgency.
