As soon as Lu Xiangsheng left, Cao Wenzhao came.

"See Wu Shuai!"

"What's wrong with you?"

"We came to give advice. Although our army is large at present, the number of people is mixed, and the army has not yet been completed. We should be cautious and we think that this is not the time to send troops to support us."

Wu Xiang looked at Cao Wenzhao coldly.

It is no big secret that Cao Wenzhao had a disagreement with the generals of Liaodong.

Especially the Wu family, which is domineering in Liaodong.

If it weren't for Zu Dashou's patriarchal Yuan Chonghuan, Wu Xiang would definitely be even more uncontrollable.

Now that Cao Wenzhao is coming to persuade him, how could Wu Xiang have a good face?

He sneered: "What are the tricks for General Cao Shen?"

"I think that when I wait for the opportunity, the surprise troops attacked and nudged Jiannu's food route!"

"You can even think of it, Huang Taiji couldn't think of it?" Wu Xiang immediately retorted, "Now Dalinghe City is surrounded. If there is any mistake, who will take responsibility for it? Or do you, General Cao, dare not fight Jiannu head-on?"

After being scolded by Wu Xiang like this, Cao Wenzhao suddenly had nothing to say.

After all, Wu Xiang is the general, and Cao Wenzhao is just a general.

"I dare not do it in a humble position! I must do my best to do my humble position!"

"Get out!"

"yes!"

After Cao Wenzhao left, he was angry, but he could only bear it.

At this time, Lu Xiangsheng was already preparing.

If Lu Xiangsheng doesn’t follow Wu Xiang to provide support, then what will he do?

It's very simple, go to Yizhou!

Yizhou is Huang Taiji's logistics base.

After being defeated by Yizhou, Huang Taiji had two choices:

1. Quick battle and decisiveness.

2. Mobilize grain from Guangning.

The second point is very risky, because Guangning is on the other side of the Daling River, and the straight distance from the Daling River is 150 miles. If you want to truly travel to the grain road, it will be at least 200 miles.

The journey is long, the risks are greater, not to mention that there is a Daling River in the middle. It is a very troublesome thing to cross the river with a large amount of military rations and is easy to be attacked.

Therefore, Yizhou is the key.

Wu Xiang mobilized 40,000 troops and set out from the East City Gate.

Among these 40,000 troops, 20,000 were Guanning troops, and 20,000 were reinforcements from Xuanfu and Jizhen.

There are 5,000 cavalry in the Guanning army, 3,000 musketeers, and the other 12,000 are infantry.

There are also 5 tiger squatting cannons.

Xuanfu and Jizhen Army were basically infantrymen, with some combat chariots, the so-called chariot camp soldiers.

Why are there any chariot soldiers?

It is used to charge for Jiannu's arrow formation, and Jiannu's bows and arrows are very powerful.

People hid behind the wooden board, and the people behind pushed the cart forward, and the people in the car were also hiding behind the wooden board, with small holes on the wooden board, and muskets were clamped on it.

The chariots were actually eliminated in the Qin and Han dynasties. Because they were too bulky, the Central Plains dynasty had already begun to vigorously develop cavalry against northern alien races at that time.

However, the Eight Banners of Jurchens in the late Ming Dynasty were too powerful, which was one of the ways the Ming army had to come out.

Wu Xiang soon led an army of 40,000 to advance eastward and fought towards the 20,000 Eight Banners of Dege.

Dege is 50 miles east of Jinzhou City.

At present, Wu Xiang attracted the attention of Degele, and Lu Xiangsheng could quickly go north to attack Yizhou.

He did it as he said, and Lu Xiangsheng was also a practical person.

Just as Wu Xiang was advancing eastward quickly, the war sides didn't know that Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army suddenly rushed to the north!

At noon that day, Degele was discussing in the camp whether to siege Jinzhou City, but Dai Shan opposed it.

If Huang Taiji besieged Jinzhou City and Huang Taiji requested immediate support, they would not be able to meet with Huang Taiji in time.

Therefore, their mission was not to attack the city, but to intercept the reinforcements of the Ming army.

Daishan was the leader of the four major belles, and had a high prestige and status in the Jin Dynasty.

However, during the Jisi change two years ago, he made some mistakes and was caught by Huang Taiji.

Amin was severely criticized by Huang Taiji for massacre in Zunhua, and his military power was weakened and his prestige was greatly damaged.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be the turn of Dege to be the commander of the right-wing army this time.

Why did Huang Taiji oppose the massacre of the city?

Because Huang Taiji is implementing reform in Liaodong, one major direction is to value the Han people.

Amin's massacre of the city will inevitably arouse fear of Han officials in Liaodong and deepen suspicion and conflicts between the Jurchens and the Han people, which is not conducive to Huang Taiji.

At present, several people are discussing in the tent.

Suddenly, a spy's voice came from outside: "Report to Master Beile, the Ming army in Jinzhou has dispatched tens of thousands of troops and is rushing towards our army!"

Dege opened the curtain of the tent and said, "The specific number of people!"

"It cannot be identified yet."

"Okay! OK! OK!" Degele was overjoyed. He was thinking about whether to besiege Jinzhou City, but Mingjun actually came to his door.

Daishan and Amin were also very happy when they heard this.

This fat sheep that came to the door is not killed, it’s not like killing!

"Transfer our military orders and the whole army gathered in a formation!"

The horn of the Eight Banners sounded, and elite troops of the Eight Banners gathered quickly.

Compared with the Ming army's ability to operate, the Eight Banners are indeed powerful.

Among the Ming army's border troops, there were many of them who were older, and the young ones looked careless.

When we assembled this morning, the formation was basically messy.

And the Eight Banners, saying that they gathered, was like a wolf pack that heard the call of the wolf king and immediately began to line up.

Soon, the 20,000 army was assembled on the plain.

The braid with the rat tail of the Jinqian looks ugly, but the murderous aura on the faces of the Eight Banners soldiers is real and strong.

This is only possible only if you have truly killed many people on the battlefield.

In the afternoon, the sky slowly became gloomy and a breeze rose.

Wu Xiang was chatting and laughing in the central army, looking like he was strategizing.

Soon after, the spy reported: "Report to Wu Shuai, Jiannu has already arranged the military formation!"

"Okay!" Wu Xiang was so proud, "I will defeat Jiannu today!"

The other generals also said, "Ship Wu is wise!"

The Wu clan in Liaodong had many private soldiers, so naturally there were many dog-legged men who responded with each other.

The wind crossed the corridor of western Liaoning and pushed it from a distance, bringing out a pungent smell of sweat.

The war horses were spitting out hot air and pounded the ground anxiously with their iron hooves.

The Ming army flags were dancing, with great momentum.

The 12,000 Guanning Army infantry in the central army are the main force of the central army, and the cavalry is on both wings.

The Jizhen Army is heading on the left side, and is commanded by Zhang Chun, a military army in Jizhen.

The Xuanfu Army is heading on the right, commanded by the Xuanfu General Hei Yunlong.

Song Wei said: "Ship Wu, does our army need to take a break and fight against Jiannu?"

"No need, our army is full of fighting spirit, we can win the battle! Arrange the array!"

"Array!"

The sound of the horn sounded, and the Guanning Army began to line up.

The left and right roads also began to line up.

The commander of the right side, Hei Yunlong, cursed: "Damn it, what the hell is it! I dared to go on the road for most of the day without resting!"

"Hei Shuai, what should I do now?"

"What should Guan Ningjun do if he loves his mother? No movement will be allowed later!"

"yes!"

The left commander Zhang Chun secretly complained that something was wrong, so he immediately sent someone to the central army to suggest Wu Xiang make adjustments first.
Chapter completed!
