"Eunuch Chen, there are no outsiders here. Just say whatever comes to your mind!" Xiong Tingbi looked at Chen Hong's worried expression and asked with a solemn expression.

Sighing softly, Chen Hong said with a complicated expression: "In order to resist the Mongol Tatars, a lot of effort was spent on the construction of Zunhua City, and there is one thing there that must not fall into the hands of the slaves.

"

"Artillery!" Before Chen Hong finished speaking, Xiong Tingbi had already exclaimed, and his face turned ugly at this time. If there were artillery, it would not be a problem to attack Jizhou, which was empty of troops. Boom.

When the city gates are opened and the cavalry enters the city, the situation in Jizhou is over.

The expressions of the people present all changed. Yang Lian pondered for a moment and said hesitantly: "Since Zunhua City has artillery, I believe Jiannu will not be able to capture it so easily. There are also many defenders in Zunhua City. I believe it will not be possible."

What’s the problem!”

Hearing Yang Lian's words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but Xiong Tingbi frowned even more. After a long time, Xiong Tingbi slowly said: "If Jiannu wants to rush in this time, the most critical place is

Zunhua, only by capturing Zunhua can Jiannu be able to advance and retreat. Since Jiannu has already rushed in, they must have something to rely on. Jiannu must have a way to capture Zunhua, otherwise they would not rush in like this!"

Xiong Tingbi's words made everyone's hearts tighten again. Among those present, Xiong Tingbi was a man who knew military affairs and had fought against Jiannu. They believed Xiong Tingbi's views the most.

Nodding slowly, Yang Lian asked hesitantly: "If the Jiannu captured Zunhua, will they go straight to Jizhou? Don't forget that there are still troops in the Jing camp. Although their combat effectiveness is not as good as that of the Liaodong army, they are well-equipped.

The commander of the three battalions is Sun Chuanting, and I am afraid that the slaves will not be able to take advantage. If Zunhua is captured, the emperor will definitely order the three battalions to reinforce Jizhou. After all, there are only 30,000 slaves this time."

Sighing slightly, Xiong Tingbi said helplessly: "I am not worried about the safety of the capital now. It would be a joke to attack the capital with 30,000 people. What I am worried about is the other side. The Wenxiangmen rebellion in Shandong,

If Jiannu, after capturing Zunhua, did not attack Jizhou but went south to Shandong."

After hearing Xiong Tingbi's words, everyone shuddered! If the official army encircling and suppressing the rebellion in Shandong were defeated by the Jiannu, the consequences would be serious!

"I am now thinking about the purpose of establishing slaves. They have just been defeated in the Battle of Shenyang, and we have just taken back the Shenyang vanguard. At this time, what is their purpose of doing this? Send such a group of troops to break into the hinterland of our Ming Dynasty, they

What is the purpose?" Xiong Tingbi glanced at the crowd and said in a rather serious tone. He had dealt with Nurhachi many times over the years and knew that this old rival was never good at anything. If he did not understand the other party's

If you rush to send troops before you have your intention, you may suffer big losses!

"Now is not the time to think about this. Putting Jiannu into prison is already a dereliction of our duty. If we don't do something, the emperor will blame us. What will we do? Don't worry about what Jiannu wants to do. Since

Two possibilities came to mind, so we divided our troops for rescue. Since the main war was concentrated in Zunhua, we sent people to Santun camp and then to Zunhua. We were worried that Jiannu would go south to Shandong, so we sent people to pass through Jinzhou.

Enter, pass through Fengrun and Yutian, block Jiannu's southbound road, and go straight to Jizhou. If the war occurs in Zunhua, then unite Jizhou's soldiers and horses to annihilate Jiannu in Zunhua City. If the war occurs in Jizhou

, then annihilate them in Jizhou, no matter what their purpose is, they must not come or go!" Looking at the frowning Xiong Tingbi, He Shixian stood up suddenly and said loudly.

After hearing what He Shixian said, everyone present nodded sharply, and Yang Lian also stood up and said: "General He is right. No matter what purpose Jiannu has this time, he just went to pay his birthday, and we have to keep them here."

!”

Looking at the people in the room, Xiong Tingbi frowned even more tightly. He always felt that something was wrong. After many years in Liaodong, this was Xiong Tingbi's intuition. He always felt that there was a conspiracy here.

"General He, our family is a eunuch. Maybe our family shouldn't say such things, but let's say it this way, and let the general listen to it!" Chen Hong stood up slowly and said with a serious expression.

.

"Eunuch, please speak!" Xiong Tingbi had to be polite to Eunuch Chen in front of him. This was an eunuch overseeing the army, and the money left by Emperor Tianqi was still in his hands!

Glancing at the people around him, Chen Hong said with a serious expression: "Whether Jiannu attacks Jizhou or goes south to Shandong, he has only one goal, and that is the capital. Although it is impossible for them to capture the city of Beijing, even if they reach Beijing

Under the city, that is also a shame for the Ming Dynasty. Who of you can bear such a responsibility? If something goes wrong, it will not help if we are all delayed. General He, our family feels that no matter what conspiracy the slaves have, we must send them out.

Reinforcement. What will happen to the emperor’s face if we let the slaves spread throughout the daimyo’s hinterland? What will happen to the court’s face?”

After listening to Chen Hong's words, everyone present looked stunned, and several people nodded at the same time. Only then did they realize that no matter what conspiracy the slaves had, they would have to be led around. If they didn't send troops at this time

, no one can bear this responsibility, and now I, the people, are already guilty. If there is no Qin Wang to save me, I, the people, will all have to get out!

After pondering for a moment, Xiong Tingbi said solemnly: "Okay! In this case, we will gather the troops and march to the capital to serve the king. However, I do not agree with the division of troops into two groups. Building slaves is better at field battles. It is difficult for us to win when the numbers are equal.

.If the troops are divided into two groups, with at least 40,000 troops in each group, we from Liaodong will not be able to mobilize so many troops! So we should go all the way directly to Jizhou. If Zunhua is in emergency, we can rush to help from Jizhou, so the risk is small.

a lot of."

Xiong Tingbi is a professional in this regard, so naturally no one would object to what he said, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Seeing this scene, Xiong Tingbi also nodded slightly, and then said: "In this case, we will mobilize 50,000 troops to go to Beijing to serve the king. There are currently 40,000 defenders in Shenyang City and 10,000 will be mobilized, and 70,000 defenders in Liaoyang City will be sent out.

The army transferred 20,000 people, so there were 30,000 people. I want to collect the remaining 20,000 people along the way. There are still some Sichuan troops in Liaodong and the troops that came to reinforce Liaodong before. This time I want to bring them to

Go to Jizhou. After the war is over, I will request an order from the emperor to send these soldiers back to their place of origin."

Hearing Xiong Tingbi's words, Yang Lian nodded in agreement. In the past, the situation in Liaodong was worrying, and these people still had a role here. But now that the situation in Liaodong has stabilized, there is no point for these people to stay here. And because of the geographical area

The differences between people, and the differences between people, have given rise to many contradictions. Moreover, because it is not the establishment of Liaodong, it is very troublesome to provide food, grass and military supplies. According to the military system of the Ming Dynasty, the food and grass and military supplies for the supporting officers and soldiers should be supplied by the place of origin.

.There are many such armies in Liaodong now, and the Sichuan Army from Sichuan is the most typical example.

Because of the remote location, the Sichuan Army's food and grass supplies have not been guaranteed, and Liaodong cannot provide them with food and grass supplies. The Sichuan Army is very miserable. It is normal for them to not have enough to eat. They usually can only rely on the military merits of killing the enemy in exchange for food and grass supplies. .So their equipment is very different, but because they have been in battle for a long time, these people are very powerful in combat. This is also the reason why the court kept them in Liaodong, but now the situation in Liaodong has stabilized, and there is no need to let them go. They suffered here.

What's more, in this attack on Jizhou, these people's bravery and skill in fighting are a very good help, and there is no need to mobilize soldiers and horses from other places in Liaodong on a large scale.

After listening to Xiong Tingbi's words, everyone present nodded slowly. At this time, they finally understood that this seemingly rude Liaodong Governor was actually full of rifts in his heart!

Nodding slowly, Xiong Tingbi said in a deep voice: "Since everyone agrees, let me talk about who will go. Although we go to rescue the capital, there can be no problems in Liaodong."

"Let me lead the troops this time with a lowly position! Just sit in Shenyang City and you'll be safe!" As soon as Xiong Tingbi finished speaking, He Shixian on the side had already stood up, hugged Xiong Tingbi's fist, and said loudly.

Seeing Xiong Tingbi take the initiative to ask for military service, Xiong Tingbi slowly shook his head, but Xiong Tingbi was worried about letting He Shixian lead the troops. This man had a violent personality and was a dream general who rushed to kill, but Xiong Tingbi felt that it was necessary to give him 50,000 troops. Something happened.

After pondering for a moment, Xiong Tingbi said solemnly: "I have decided to go in person. General He can go with me. As for General You, please stay!" Seeing that You Shigong was about to get up, Xiong Tingbi said quickly.

You Shigong, who was about to get up, had no choice but to sit back angrily, with a look of helplessness on his face.

Turning his gaze to Yang Lian, Xiong Tingbi said solemnly: "While I am away, Master Yang will stay in Shenyang! Just remember one thing, no matter what happens, stick to Shenyang City and never leave the city!" "

Yang Lian nodded slowly and said seriously: "Don't worry, Commander Xiong, I understand!"

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded outside the door, saying loudly: "Report to the commander-in-chief! Urgent report from Shenyang Vanguard!"

"Come in!" After several people looked at each other, Xiong Tingbi said.
Chapter completed!
