Galtu returned to Abatai's side again, and pleaded with tears: "Lord Belle, your subordinates are useless, and they have suffered defeats...... Please punish me, eat the whip or eat the board, the subordinates will never complain, even if the head is cut off, it is also deserved. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Abatai waved his hand with a gloomy face, motioning for Galtu to go aside, now that he had not recovered from the blow just now, where did he have the heart to hold him responsible.

He looked at the embarrassed soldiers in front of him, and his heart was extremely depressed. The dignified Rao Yu Baylor, the son of the old Khan, fought in the south and the north, and fought in the north for more than 20 years, invincible and invincible, but he did not expect to capsize in the gutter and suffered a complete defeat in this small Dengzhou territory.

Amma, your son has disgraced you, Abatai thought bitterly in his heart.

In a trance, he seemed to see that in the thirty-ninth year of Wanli, only 23 of his first Taiji, he was ordered by his father to lead an expedition for the first time, leading a thousand troops to crusade against the two tribes of the Jurchens in the East China Sea, Urguchen (in the area of the Bijin River in present-day Russia) and Muling (in the Muling River Basin of present-day Heilongjiang Province), and won a complete victory, and was personally rewarded and encouraged by his father Khan. Who would have thought that today, more than 20 years later, he would be disgraced by a small stone castle when he commanded an army of nearly 20,000 people.

Abatai rode his horse in circles. He was quite valued from the time of the old Khan, and recalled the process of being marginalized during the period of Huang Taiji, and a voice in his heart kept shouting: I, Aixin Jueluo Abatai, the seventh son of Nurhachi, from Ningguta to Shanhaiguan, fought everywhere, and made great achievements, not what I am now, a dispensable Baylor. There should be a place for me in Dajin's court, and I should have been the lord of a banner, not under my nephew Hauge, who only had a pitiful five Niu Lu at hand.

However, if he violated the original battle plan, led his troops deep into Shandong without authorization, fought a battle with the Ming army for some reason, and returned defeated, these five Niu Lu and Baylor's titles may not be kept.

Abatai couldn't help but regret a little, if he knew this, he would just pretend not to see the cavalry unit before, so that he would not have a sense of mission and chased all the way to Dengzhou. But there is no regret medicine in the world, now that he has attacked two rounds, he has lost his troops and lost his generals, and it is difficult to ride a tiger, if he withdraws his troops so gloomily and returns to Shengjing, it is very likely that he will be deprived of his title and Niu Lu, and he will be directly reduced to Beizi - he can't let this happen, he has to think of a way to make up for it.

After a few turns, Lerma stopped and said to the trembling Galtu: "Send men to gather food around and set up camp." I will besiege this little fortress until they run out of ammunition. "If you can't beat it, I'll trap you, forgive you a small fortress, unless you have an unknown prophet, it's so close to Dengzhou, you won't store too much grain and grass, maybe it'll be eaten up in three or five days." As long as the other party is hungry and has no strength and low morale, and then attacks the city, he will definitely be able to go down in one go.

Gartu was taken aback, is Lord Belle on the bar with the other party? His first reaction was to persuade Abatai to give up this stupid idea, but he lost two battles in a row, and he had no face to give advice to Baylor, so he had to respond in a muffled voice, and let people search everywhere for food and grass.

A Niu Lu Zhangjing cautiously asked, "Lord Belle, if you plan to besiege it, do you want to send someone to guard the east?" Dengzhou City seems to be less than ten miles away from here, so be careful to send reinforcements in the city to flank our army. ”

Abatai replied disdainfully: "What I am afraid of is only this army in the stone fort, and the rest of the Ming army is nothing more than Tuji Wagouer." It is best for the Dengzhou Ming army to go out of the city to reinforce, but it is easy to destroy it, and it is not easy for me to fight in Dengzhou City. ”

As a regime in the process of rising, the military discipline of the Later Jin army is strict and the execution is very strong - this time and space in the entire Asian continent can only be compared with or even surpassed by the Qiong Navy - regardless of whether there is any doubt about Abatai's insistent order, but once the order is issued, more than 10,000 troops act separately, the requisition of grain, the encampment, and the vigilance of vigilance, in an orderly manner, and they are not collapsed because of the fiasco just now.

At the head of the fortress city, Lin Weiye, Su Thick Legs, Ma Wei and others looked at the movement on the opposite side in surprise, Lin Weiye asked Su Thick Legs in a daze: "If I'm not mistaken, the Tartars are going to camp and fight with us?" ”

Su Bush's face was heavy, and he nodded: "It seems to be the case." ”

Lin Weiye thought of something and was glad: "Fortunately, we have stored enough food for a month, and we will be fine for the time being." I just don't know how long the Tartars will plan to besiege it. ”

Ma Wei thought for a while and said, "The Tartars only enter the Kou to plunder, and they generally don't stay in one place for a long time, so as not to be cut off. Although I don't know what this Tatar thinks, but Shandong is not Liaodong, they are alone in the depths, they will not stay for too long, it is absolutely impossible for a month, and it will only take five or six days to survive, not more than ten days. ”

While they were speculating on the Tartars' intentions and the duration of the siege, a Tartar general led several armored soldiers to the vicinity of the city walls, waving desperately and signaling not to shoot, as if he had something to say.

Su Thick Legs ordered the soldiers not to shoot and see what they were going to do. The Tartar general came to the city, raised his head and said, "Our Lord Belle asked me to ask two questions: First, your army is stronger than all the Ming troops he has ever seen, but he has never heard of it, which general's subordinates are they?" ”

Lin Weiye was hesitating whether to report the name of the Dengzhou General Army or the name of the Qiong Navy, worried that the name of the latter would have an impact on Xia Nan's plan to infiltrate Shandong in a low-key manner, Su Thick Leg had already opened his mouth without hesitation.

"We are the chief military officer of Pingnan in Qionghai Town, General Longhu, the right governor of the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army, and a partial division under Pingnan Bo Xia Nan, stationed in Dengzhou to assist in defense."

"Qionghai Town? Summer South? The general recalled, and it seemed that the name of the border town and the general soldier did not appear in his memory. Qionghai Town has been established for less than a year, and it is far away in Guangdong, too far away from Liaodong, and it is normal for Houjin to be unfamiliar. However, from today on, the names of Qionghai Town and Xia Nan are deeply ingrained in his mind, and the fiasco of this battle will be difficult to forget even for ten or twenty years.

After the general wrote down the name, he continued: "The second sentence is that we admit that we have lost the battle, but can we pull these corpses and wounded soldiers back?" ”

The population of the Houjin army is not large, and it is very sensitive to the attrition of combat casualties, so when fighting, as long as the battle situation allows, the wounded soldiers will generally be brought back, and the corpses will not be left for the Ming army, so as not to be cut off as a trophy for merit and reward, which is a great shame for the conceited Houjin army.
