Chapter 592: A Helpless Choice

Although Yue Tuo said it clearly, Dolgon still wanted to see it for himself, and he temporarily stabilized his position in the Houjin through the series of interest exchanges before the last parliamentary meeting, and prepared for the next step to ascend to the Houjin Khan, but even at this time, he still has a deep sense of distrust of the councillors who can sit on an equal footing with him.

In particular, this expedition was originally to build momentum for himself, as long as he can win and triumph, there will be no major obstacles to his accession to the throne as the king of Houjin Khan, at this critical moment, he does not dare to believe in the original competitors.

"Lord Belle, looking at the current situation in Lushun City, the slave thinks that we can completely deploy heavy troops in Jinzhou City to block the throat of southern Liaoning, and prevent Chen Xin and the Huaxia army under his command from coming out to make trouble."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but turn their heads to look over, only to find that it was a Han man surnamed Gao who took over the government.

The six Jurchen divisions were formed at the suggestion of the Han people Ning Wan after Huang Taiji completed the first battle of entering the Ming Dynasty. (Later Jin took the initiative to learn the culture of the Han people, such as the Four Books on Wenzhi, the Military Book on Soldiers and Horses, and the Zizhi Tongjian, which explores the rise and fall of dynasties, etc., which I put forward by Ning Wan.) )

Among the six ministries of the Later Jin Dynasty, except for one Baylor, who was in charge, most of the power was in the hands of officials such as Chengzheng and political participation. And this Chengzheng surnamed Gao, although he is only a Han official, still has a certain status above the Later Jin Dynasty.

Moreover, Dolgon and other high-level officials of Houjin knew very well that this person had always been a cronie and think tank around Huang Taiji, and the plan to join Kou Daming when he was young was first proposed by him.

In the end, the battle achieved very good results, so that Houjin suddenly got rid of the domestic mess left by Nurhachi for many years and could not be completely settled by Huang Taiji.

It can be said that this person is one of the most top-notch people among the Han officials.

In the process of fighting for the throne of Khan, Dolgon had co-opted the slave owners of the Eight Banners before he co-opted him, and now, he is Dolgon's brainchild.

Although the current Dolgon, on the one hand, knows that Lushun is definitely not easy to fight, and it is likely that a careless loss of troops will make his plan fail, but on the other hand, he does not dare to retreat lightly due to the situation, and he is in a difficult situation, but he is still willing to show his bearing in front of everyone.

He did not reprimand Gao Chengzheng, but explained gently, "If we can't pull out the nail of Lushun, then Jinzhou City will definitely not be able to defend it for a long time, and it may not even be able to hold an attack on the mud."

In terms of my Dajin's national strength, it is simply impossible to maintain too many men and horses in Jinzhou City for a long time, because at such a long distance, the transportation of military rations is too difficult, and the sea and water routes are constantly patrolled by the navy under Chen Xin throughout the four seasons, and there are too many losses on the land routes.

If you really want to retreat, then you can't even defend Fuzhou City, at least until Gaizhou City can ensure the full supply of military rations when there are enough garrison numbers.

However, if you do this, it will be a matter of triggering the whole body.

Once the retreat to Gaizhou, the area around Phoenix Mountain will be isolated again. Do you know that it is an important vanguard fortress of my Dajin to defend against the Huaxia army on the other side of the Yalu River.

If the back road of Phoenix Mountain is surrounded, then the army under Chen Xin's command will not need to cross the sea again, build a bridge over the Yalu River, and the army under his command will be able to easily cross the river and increase troops to our Liaodong region.

Phoenix City is not the most serious problem, and Xiuyan, the main transportation route from the Liaonan Peninsula to our Shenyang, once our army retreats to Gaizhou, Xiuyan will be completely exposed to the front of the Huaxia Army in Liaoning.

If there is a cavalry, starting from the vicinity of Xiuyan, it will only take two days to reach the city of Shenyang.

Under the circumstance that Shenyang is under direct threat, how can our army go east and west? At that time, whether it was an expedition to the Ming Kingdom or a deterrent to Mongolia, they all had to be put down, focused on dealing with Chen Xin, and fought hard with him. ”

After listening to Dolgon's explanation, Gao Chengzheng lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and finally bowed and retreated to stop talking.

At this time, it was inconvenient for Yue Tuo to come forward and fight with Dolgon, so as soon as he signaled slightly, a Jurchen general came out to object, "According to what we know when we dealt with the Huaxia army in the past, these generals under Chen Xin have always liked to play tricks.

Now, in those deep ditches on the opposite side, what is the fame, we still don't know, just the minions can be seen with the naked eye, can be counted, then there are horse rejection, thistle terrestris, sharp stakes, trapped horse pits.

And the invisible, there will never be less, at least, if we rush forward, we will definitely encounter a lot of mines.

Behind those walls, there are bows, crossbows, ash bottles, iron chests, furnaces, yakshas, brick thunder, and rolling logs.

Looking at the artillery they set up in those places, the Huaxia Army deliberately did not set up the artillery, but only opened the gaps one by one and put the artillery flat.

In front of those artillery, several barrages were dozens of paces wide together, and the open spaces in front of the barrages, which were divided into pieces, were all within the range of their artillery.

We have been fighting for so many years, and this shield car cannot resist artillery fire, or even be able to get close to it at all, let's not mention that everyone knows that in this kind of place, just trying to fill in the trenches, at least 1,800 people have to die. ”

Duoduo is now fully supporting his brother Dorgon, but, with his qualifications, he really didn't hear from the mouth of the officer just now that he was persuading Dolgon to withdraw his troops, and thought that this person was also making ideas for attacking the Huaxia army position in front, so he also participated.

"Yes, the digging of this position in front of me is really frustrating, we are dizzy when we look around, it's really hard to fight, and when the fight starts later, the children of our flags have to hide it, let Baoyi and Aha take the lead first, our Jurchen clansmen are all expensive, and they must not be filled into this bottomless pit."

Speaking of this, Duoduo finally couldn't help but scold, "This Chen Xin is purely a bastard king and a lamb, this place is the most fertile land, and the harvest is definitely a lot."

But he didn't even care about this kind of fertile field, and dug so many trenches and earthen walls in it. Even destroyed all the crops near Lushun City, and by next month, we would not be able to harvest half a grain of grain at all. ”
