Chapter 119: The First Battle of Liberation

Now Yu Xiaotian guarantees that as long as they hand over their military power, they will not blame the past, and they will also give them generous caress and let them go home to be honored and raised, and become a rich man, which is already a special kindness.

If they don't seize this opportunity, I'm afraid that after Xiaotian turns around and solves the problem of Jiannu, they won't be offered such generous conditions again, and then they are afraid that in addition to handing over the military power, it will be difficult to get even a good end.

Zu Dashou was forced to form shì, and in the end he could only give in and accept the conditions that Yu Xiaotian gave him, as for Yu Xiaotian inviting him to join the military department to do things, he also chose to decline, because as a person of the foreign line, the military department will definitely be Yu Xiaotian's direct subordinates in the future, even if he joins the military department, it is estimated that he will be excluded, and it is difficult to grasp how much power, it is better to simply retreat now, go home to be a rich man, and not ask about the world.

Now he can be sure that Da Ming is no longer the previous Da Ming, this Yu Xiaotian in front of him is the real master in the future, he will never allow any generals, under his nose to support the army and self-respect, rather than confront him, it is better to obey him honestly, and you can end up with a good ending.

After Yu Xiaotian persuaded Zu Dashou, he also breathed a sigh of relief, for the Guanning army, it has always been a piece of his heart, and even before leading the troops out of the customs this time, he had prepared for the worst, if Zu Dashou and other Guanning generals refused to obey him, handed over the military power to reorganize the Guanning army, he was even ready, before cleaning up the Jiannu, first clean up this group of Guanning generals, in order to relieve his worries.

But now it seems that he doesn't have to worry about this matter anymore, Zu Dashou is a very smart person, and he knows how to do things, and he is not arrogant enough to think that with the strength of their Guanning army, he can confront him Yu Xiaotian, Cheng Dù, this time he readily agreed to his conditions, so this is a good thing for him to pass through Liaodong in the future.

At least avoid an unnecessary killing, can make a lot of people die outside the gate, which can also play a big role in the future resumption of production in Liaodong, in this regard, Zu Dashou did this, it can be said that it is due to the community, thanks to the nation, so Yu Xiaotian got up and gave a deep salute to Zu Dashou: "Thank you for being so enlightened, and thank you for the entire people of Liaodong in a certain generation!"

But this matter is not in a hurry, you can wait until we join forces to destroy Jiannu! This time, Yu personally conquered Liaodong, and I hope that the ancestor can cooperate with Yu and snow the humiliation of my Ming Dynasty for decades!

If Guan Ningjun can establish meritorious service this time, then Yu can reconsider the arrangement of some meritorious people in the future! ……”

After Zu Dashou returned to Jinzhou City, he immediately gathered the Guanning generals who were with him and informed everyone of the results of his negotiations with Yu Xiaotian.

When everyone heard this, there was an uproar, and there were many people who did not agree, and many people jumped up on the spot, shouting that they would never agree, and some people even immediately went back to order troops and lead troops to stand on their own mountain.

But the uproar of these people was quickly suppressed by Zu Dashou's angry shout, Zu Dashou swept the people present with cold eyes, coldly scolded them, explained the benefits to them, and told them what should be said again.

And sue sù these people, he has agreed to Yu Xiaotian's suggestion, and decided that after Yu Xiaotian exterminated Jiannu this time, he would be the first to hand over the military power, if anyone refuses to give in, if he has to lead troops to stand on his own mountain, he will be the first to refuse, whoever does this is to be his enemy, even if Yu Xiaotian ignores them for the time being, his ancestor Dashou will lead troops to suppress it.

Hearing what Zu Dashou said, these guys suddenly wilted, knowing that the matter was probably irreparable, if Zu Dashou refused to take them to make trouble, then just relying on them to go down and mess around, it is estimated that there is no chance of winning at all, so jumping out to fight against Yu Xiaotian is actually looking for his own death, and it is estimated that Yu Xiaotian is also happy for someone to jump out like this and be a bird!

Now if someone takes the initiative to jump out to act as this rising bird, it will undoubtedly be what Yu Xiaotian wants to see the most, he will definitely use thunderous means to kill all these emerging birds, this point These Guan Ning generals present are not stupid, no one is willing to act as this emerging bird, since no one dares to jump out, then they will have no choice but to accept it.

Zu Dashou can be regarded as completely pressing down on these Guanning generals, and then sued them, things still have a turnaround, Yu Xiaotian has a word first, if he leads the army to suppress Jiannu this time, they Guanning generals are willing to fully cooperate, and make war achievements, then they can reconsider their appointment afterwards, but if someone wants to take advantage of this opportunity to cause chaos for him, Yu Xiaotian's ugly words have also been said to the front, and the nine clans will be uprooted. No mercy.

In such a situation of fighting with one hand and pulling one hand, even if these Guanning generals were reluctant, they could only accept the current fact, and they all died down, expressing their willingness to listen to Zu Dashou's orders and act according to Zu Dashou's orders.

On the seventh day of August in the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, a final duel between the Ming Dynasty and Jiannu was finally staged in Liaodong, and Yu Xiaotian led more than 30,000 Yujia troops to set off from Jinzhou and go straight to the Daling River.

A fleet of the Northern Fleet, which had long been on standby in the Bohai Bay, immediately sent many small ships to the mouth of the Daling River, assisted the main force of the Yu family army to cross the Daling River, and went straight to the Daling River Fort, which also provoked the Second Battle of the Daling River Fort.

It's just that this time the attacking and defending sides returned their positions, the Jiannu army became the defender, and the Ming army, that is, the Yujia army, became the attacker.

Dalinghe Fort is now the first line of defense of the Ming army in Liaodong to defend against the Ming army, so in the past few years, it has been vigorously operated by Jiannu and continuously expanded and reinforced, so that Dalinghe Fort has formed a perfect defense system.

Moreover, Huang Taiji took the most trusted Jierharang as the commander, put it in Dalinghe Fort and personally sat in it, and put the re-expanded inlaid blue flag in the area of Dalinghe Fort to guard, and Yizhou in the west to guard each other, and jointly built the first line of defense against Daming.

Yu Xiaotian did not take Yizhou first, but directly supervised the forced crossing of the Daling River, first defeated the Jiannu defenders on the north bank with the artillery on the boat, and then covered and helped the Lu division to successfully cross the Daling River.

Zilharang immediately led his army to counterattack, but was successfully stopped by Yu's army and gained a firm foothold on the north bank of the Daling River.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Yu family army was too powerful, so he did not dare to fight with the Yu family army in the field, and led the army to quickly withdraw to the city of Dalinghe, closing the city gate and defending it.

At this time, Jiannu Tong Guò Huang Taiji went all out to supervise the construction, and now has also cast a lot of Hongyi cannons, although the quality of the Hongyi cannons cast by Jiannu is far inferior to the cannons used by the Yujia army, but the power should not be underestimated, only in the Dalinghe Fort, it is equipped with more than 20 Hongyi cannons of about 18 pounds.

In addition, Jiannu also made a lot of arquebuses, similar in shape to the old bird guns used by the Ming army, and the quality was much surpassed, and Zilharang tried to use these firearms to fight against the Yu army.

After Yu Xiaotian led his troops to attack the Daling River, he besieged the city of Dalinghe and began to attack the Dalinghe Fort.

The soldiers and horses of Jiannu outside Dalinghe Fort were quickly cleared by the cavalry of the Yu family's army, and the remaining Jiannu soldiers and horses all retreated to Dalinghe Fort and defended Dalinghe Fort.

Yu Xiaotian ordered the artillery to launch a fierce artillery bombardment on Dalinghe Fort, and the two sides launched a fierce artillery battle, in front of the new artillery of the Yu family army, although Jiannu has tried his best to build artillery in the past two years, but it is still completely suppressed by the artillery fire of the Yu family army.

After three days of fierce fighting, almost all the Hongyi cannons in the Dalinghe Fort were destroyed by the artillery of the Yu army, and Zierharang was greatly frightened, so he sent the cavalry with blue flags in the city out of the city to counterattack the Yu army, trying to destroy the artillery positions of the Yu family army outside the city with cavalry.

But their sortie was immediately attacked by the infantry and artillery of the Yu family's army, and more than a thousand cavalry who went out of the city to sneak attack did not even touch the edge of the artillery position of the Yujia army, so they were beaten to the ground, and the remaining remnants of the army turned around and fled, but they were pursued by the Mongolian cavalry battalion that the Yujia army had just formed.

As a result, of the more than 1,000 Jiannu cavalry, only a few dozen of them finally fled back to the Dalinghe Fort, and the rest were basically gathered and annihilated outside the city.

Jilharang was greatly frightened, so he had to send people to sneak out of Dalinghe City at night, rush to Yizhou for help, and order the defenders of Yizhou to come to the rescue of Dalinghe City.

Yu Xiaotian and others are Jierharang's move, when Huang Taiji led his troops to attack Dalinghe Fort, he also adopted the method of besieging the city and sending reinforcements, after surrounding Dalinghe Fort, he knocked out several Ming troops who came to rescue Dalinghe Fort, and finally forced Zu Dashou, who was guarding Dalinghe Fort, to surrender to Qing for the first time, and also led more than 10,000 elites of the Guanning Army to finally surrender to Jiannu and became Jiannu's minions.

This time Yu Xiaotian retaliated with a tooth for a tooth, and also adopted this method, Yizhou Jiannu soldiers, hearing the order, did not dare to disobey, and raised 3,000 soldiers and horses out of Yizhou to rush to the city of Dalinghe to help, but was strongly blocked by the Yu family army on the way, and the reinforcements were unable to break through the defense line of the Yu family army, and were defeated by the Yu family army.

When the rout fled back to Yizhou City, they found that they couldn't even go back to Yizhou City at this time, and it turned out that Yu Xiaotian led the troops to attack Dalinghe Fort, and that side had ordered Zu Dashou to lead 20,000 Guanning troops to attack Yizhou.

When the defenders of Yizhou Jiannu rushed out of the city to Dalinghe Fort, Zu Dashou led the troops to appear outside Yizhou City, and instantly surrounded Yizhou City like an iron barrel, and began to attack Yizhou City desperately.

At this time, there were only less than 2,000 Jiannu defenders left in the city of Yizhou, plus some people, even if all the bannermen were added, there were only less than 5,000 defenders.

Moreover, there are many Han people in Yizhou City, and they are not willing to work hard for Jiannu and the Ming army, in this case, some Han soldiers deliberately released water, and finally Yizhou City was finally broken by the Guanning army under the command of Zu Dashou.
