Chapter 889: Finding the Boat Weishan Lake

"Also, Lord Wang, most of us are cavalry now, it is too wasteful to use it for siege, we must expand the infantry, use infantry to siege the city, after all, a cavalry is trained, and it costs more than a dozen infantry, but we can't afford to consume it, Xia Guan proposed, immediately recruit strong people from the surrounding states and counties for siege, if the number is insufficient, then drive the displaced people, use the method used by the thieves, this trick is the most effective!"

"Accurate!"

Azig did not hesitate and agreed directly, after all, the life and death of the Han people has nothing to do with him Azig, as long as he can take Jining City, he doesn't care how many Han people will die, even if the people of the entire Yanzhou Mansion fill it in, it will be worth it!

Azig personally handed over the command to Wu Sangui's hands, Wu Sangui was equal to having the sword of Shang Fang, and began to greatly adjust the previous strategy and tactics, if you want to attack the city, only use foot cavalry with manpower pads, it is absolutely not possible, how many elites, but also die under the city, the best way is to drive the homeless, promote the siege equipment to attack the city, this is the most effective means of attack.

However, if you want to adjust your tactics, it is not so fast, it will also take a lot of time to make siege equipment and recruit displaced people, that is, it will take several days for the Qing army to go all out before it can be put in place.

Not to mention anything else, just say that the elite cavalry sent by Azig went to search for boats around Weishan Lake, and with big ships, they were able to launch an attack on the south and east sides of Jining City, which was a must, and they must collect enough boats, especially the boats in the north, most of them were flat-bottomed boats, driving in rivers and lakes, which were very stable and suitable for attacking the city.

However, what Azig didn't expect was that thousands of cavalry were sent out, surrounded Weishan Lake, and searched around, but they didn't find a few boats, and even if they did, most of them were small boats, and there were no big ships at all.

Mel Zhangjing Tenggari returned to the tent dejectedly, bowed down and said: "Lord Qiqi, the servants searched around Weishan Lake for two days, and only found dozens of ships, and they were all very small awning boats, and it was okay to transport more than ten soldiers, and more, I am afraid that the awning boat will not be able to fit, let alone thousands of catties of artillery, as long as it is pulled on the boat, the canopy boat will be directly sunk by the artillery......"

Azig frowned and shouted, "Bastard, there are no big ships nearby, won't you run farther?" This is still taught to you by this king? ”

Tengari's face was full of bitterness, and he said helplessly: "Lord Wang, the minions have already advanced thirty miles to the south to look for ships, and there is no trace of the large cao boats, presumably as soon as the war breaks out in Jining, the Cao gang and fishermen on the shore of Weishan Lake have already escaped, and the minions even wonder if the surrounding ships have been taken away in advance by the Tianwei army in Jining City......

"Impossible!"

Wu Sangui on the side said in a deep voice: "General Tenggari, on Weishan Lake, there are thousands of fishermen alone, or even tens of thousands, and Jining is an important town for Cao Yun. They have to have a place to put it, right? ”

"Then it can only be that these Cao gangs and fishermen have already fled in advance, right?"

Tengari replied.

"Fart, how is it possible!"

Azig shouted: "Jining is an important town of Caoyun, and Weishan Lake is one of the best lakes in the north, countless people are pointing to him for his life, how can they all flee?" If you don't find a ship for thirty miles, then continue to push me south, and if you push to sixty miles, this king will not believe that you can't find a large boat! Also, if there is no shore, let me go deep into the lake and search! ”

Tengari suddenly woke up, yes, he only searched on the shore, but he did not go deep into the lake, if he went to the lake, maybe he could make a new discovery!

"Lord Wang, the slave really ignored it, the slave should die, he didn't send someone to search in the lake, the slave sent someone to search for boats on Weishan Lake again, and these boats must be dug out!"

Wu Sangui said with a smile: "Yes, that's right, whether these people fled to Weishan Lake for refuge, or the Tianwei army in the city hid the boats, they can only enter Weishan Lake, after all, without the water, these boats are no different from firewood, General Tengari, this official thinks that there is a chance that those big boats are in the depths of Weishan Lake, you have to search carefully......"

Tengari nodded, bowed to Azig, and turned down to set up.

This time, Tengari learned smartly, anyway, he got dozens of small boats, the small ones can fit seven or eight people, and the dozen people can fit the dozen people, only dozens of boats are needed, enough to carry nearly a thousand people into Weishan Lake, this time we must find the traces of these boats!

A few people guessed well, Weishan Lake, especially the ships near Jining, were almost swept away by the Tianwei soldiers who withdrew from Yanzhou, especially those larger ships were all brought into the depths of Weishan Lake by the soldiers of Nanjing Right Town, Weishan Lake is more than 200 miles long from north to south, and the widest from east to west is more than 50 miles.

Tengari personally led the team, led the cavalry of two Niu Lu, all abandoned the war horses, boarded the boat with bows, arrows and sabers, and the soldiers divided into three ways and killed them in the depths of Weishan Lake.

It's just that Tengari didn't know that as soon as he stepped into Weishan Lake, he would be tantamount to entering hell.

You know, now in Weishan Lake, but there are three thousand elites of Nanjing Right Town, these elites are hiding in it, and they don't show up at all on weekdays, anyway, they carry a lot of military funds, enough for three thousand people to support one or two months, eating, drinking, and Lazar, all of which are solved on the lake, three thousand elites, although this elite is not equipped with many muskets, but only about 100 of them, but they have artillery, 3,000 elites are divided into three teams, each team has 20 large ships, 20 small boats, and the big ships carry people, The boats carried military supplies, and each team also had two red-coated artillery pieces and two general cannons, which were all the belongings of Yanzhou Mansion, all of which were brought to Weishan Lake, ready to meet the Tianwei Army of Jining Mansion.

Tenggari drove dozens of small boats, so rushed into Luhuadang, all the way forward, this is tantamount to self-defeating, just entered Luhuadang for a short time, was discovered by the patrol Nanjing Right Town soldiers, and sent the information to the hands of Xu Qing, the general of Nanjing Right Town.

"What? The Qing army has already entered Weishan Lake? It seems that they are going to attack Jining from Weishan Lake, hehe, Lao Tzu will not give you this opportunity, order the Chinese army battalion, rush forward, mobilize our artillery, give Lao Tzu artillery together, and blow up all their boats! ”
