After only one day and one night, Abatai led 10,000 elites of the Eight Banners and 10,000 green battalions to the city of Zhending Mansion.

"Herald! Yue Le, led 4,000 elite cavalry to guard the east gate; Acton led 4,000 elite cavalry to defend the west gate, and the rest of the army and I attacked the north gate together, and all the artillery was shown, and I thought about launching an attack on Zhending Mansion early tomorrow morning! ”

Abatai gave the order directly.

"Father, aren't we, besieging on all sides?"

Yue Le was shocked and asked, "If we give up the deployment of Nancheng, wouldn't that give these Ming troops a chance to escape?" ”

Abatai said in a deep voice: "Yue Le, our Manchurian Eight Banners are best at field warfare, but they are not so good at siege warfare and mountain warfare, in the past, we besieged Jinzhou and Ningyuan, all of which were besieged on all sides, with little success, and every battle had to pay a heavy price, this time, we are going to try other tactics, give up the siege of the south gate, it is the change, besiege the city on three sides, and attack in one direction, then our strength will be completely concentrated together, and the strength will be stronger!" ”

Yue Le was puzzled: "Father, but in this way, the Ming army will also gather heavy troops and deploy defenses in Beicheng, our strength will increase, and the strength of the opponent will also increase, what good can this be?" ”

Abatai said earnestly: "Son, you are still young, you see, the Ming army's defense in the northern city will indeed be strengthened, but can their city wall defense be strengthened?" Our twenty or thirty artillery pieces besieged all sides, three or five thousand shells, may not be able to bombard the walls of Zhending Mansion, but we concentrate on bombarding one direction, maybe two thousand shells, the walls of the north city of Zhending Mansion will be blasted open by us, understand, this is the gap! ”

Abatai is very fond of this son, not only Abatai, but even Dolgon loves it very much, thinking that Yue Le will become the commander of the Qing Dynasty in the next forty years, smart, resolute, calm, experienced, and good at learning, especially for the culture of the Han people, is even more fond, although there is still some youth, but Abatai believes that only need to fight two or three battles, his son can be trained, become the pillar of the next generation of the Qing Dynasty!

"And, as I just said, what are we good at in the Eight Banners of Manchuria? Field! Instead of a siege war, we stormed Zhending Mansion, we may not be able to get the Ming army defending the city, but once they enter the field, the Ming army's combat power will be vulnerable, leaving them with space in the south city, is to leave them a glimmer of life, in the case of being overwhelmed, the Ming army will inevitably choose to flee, but, as long as they are out of Zhendingfu, are they in the plains, can they still outrun our Manchurian cavalry? Even if they are equipped with two legs, they can't outrun us, and there is only one fate waiting for them, that is, they will be annihilated in one fell swoop! ”

Abatai continued.

Yue Le and the other generals nodded one after another, the two powerhouses competed for the wisdom to win, after all, Zhending Mansion is the hinterland of the Great Qing Dynasty today, it is much better to be able to retain a little more vitality of Zhending Mansion than to raze Zhending Mansion to the ground, and the vision of the King of Doluo County is really higher than himself!

"Father, I understand!"

Yue Le nodded and said, "The so-called military strategy, that's the truth, the most important thing in the battle between the two armies is the brain, not the weapon!" The father really deserves to be a generation of veterans, much stronger than the child......"

Abatai smiled bitterly: "Much stronger than you? Wrong, it's not me who is stronger than you, but the one in the Forbidden City, this strategy was personally explained to me by the regent, regent, the vision is really superior, Yue Le, work hard, this knowledge of war is deep, you still have to learn! The regent has great expectations for you, hoping that you will be able to command the three armies in the future, become a real commander, and become a generation of famous generals! ”

A generation of famous generals!

Of course, Yue Le yearns for it, but now he is just a good seedling, and he is still far from the position of a famous general!

Abatai soldiers approached the city, in the Zhending Mansion, Qin Mufeng naturally did not dare to slack off, personally climbed the head of the Zhending Mansion, watched the enemy's situation, and looked into the distance, many generals all gasped, such a strong formation, not to mention anything else, just the more than 20 red-clothed cannons, it was scary enough, fortunately, fortunately, the Governor had the foresight, as soon as he came up, he first killed the red-coated artillery of Shunde Mansion, otherwise, forty or fifty artillery, attacking at the same time, even if Zhending Mansion is strong, I definitely can't withstand such a fierce bombardment!

In addition to artillery, there was also a dense army under the city, infantry and cavalry, which set up the camp far away.

"Look, Lord Overseer, now the Qing army is advancing in the direction of our two flanks, trying to kill the east and west sides! It's going to surround us and then lay siege to us......"

Sun Xiushan on the side said in a low voice.

Qin Mufeng nodded, and said in a deep voice: "I saw it, but it is obvious that the northern city is the main direction of their attack, you see, all the artillery is deployed in the northern city, this is to fight a decisive battle against us in the northern city, as for the two wings, and the southern city, I am afraid that it is just the encirclement they deployed, once the city is broken, then it will be surrounded on all sides, and we will all be annihilated in the city of Zhending Mansion, hehe, 20,000 troops, Dolgon, Abatai, they really look up to me!" ”

"Zhou An, how are your injuries? There's no problem defending the city, right? ”

Qin Mufeng asked.

Zhou An's chest straightened, and he said loudly: "Don't worry, my lord, and I can't die, when we meet Aobai, we have no choice, admit it, other Manchurian generals, how many come, how much I will clean up!" ”

Zhou An is very single, and he directly admits that he is not Aobai's opponent, which is not ashamed, after all, Qin Mufeng can only be equal to Aobai.

"In this case, Zhou An led a thousand soldiers to defend the southern city; Sun Xiushan, led a thousand soldiers to defend the eastern city; Zhai Wang, lead a thousand soldiers to defend the west city, as for the north city, I personally led the main force to block the onslaught of Abatai, but let us have three points of energy, and absolutely do not allow the Manchurian Tartars to fill the Zhending Mansion, and the lives of 200,000 people in this city are in our hands! ”

Forehead......

Zhou An was stunned and said, "My lord, didn't you ask me to guard the North City?" How can this be done, this battle must be handed over to me Zhou An to fight, I promise to give you the Tartar to block the city under the city, the city is in the people, and the city is dead!! ”

"Leave it to you?"

Qin Mufeng glanced at Zhou An, and said disdainfully: "You are also worthy of what you say, this battle is mine, no one wants to rob it, you all give Lao Tzu an honest and obedient military order, and the mighty military order, behead!" ”
