Chapter 194 Double Wind Through the Ear

At the same time, Diao Zheng, according to the established plan, sent people to Seoul to order King Li Yu of North Korea to send troops and allocate food and fodder to supply the next step of the Dazhong Army.

In fact, the envoy of Dazhong who stayed in Seoul knew about this raid on Pi Island, but he did not inform the king of North Korea in advance. Instead, the envoy who stayed in Seoul informed the news to King Li Yu of North Korea after the scheduled operation time had arrived.

Li Yu has now been officially canonized by the Great Zhong Dynasty. The king's identity has been recognized in North Korea, which greatly strengthened his control over the country. At the same time, under the instructions of the envoys of the Great China Dynasty, he has cleaned out a group of ministers who insisted on their loyalty to Jiannu in the country, making his control over North Korea more It has been strengthened a lot.

Knowing that Dazhong Dynasty sent troops to cross the sea to raid Pi Island, this incident undoubtedly seemed to give a stimulant to the Korean country. The monarchs and ministers of North Korea realized that the good days of Manchuria's tara were coming to an end. As long as Dazhong DPRK stood on Pi Island, then Jiannu would definitely be like the Dongjiang Army, where Mao Wenlong was before. Fall into the situation of being attacked by the enemy.

This is also the best time for North Korea to break away from the control of Jiannu, so after Li Yu learned the news, he immediately mobilized troops and grain in North Korea and shipped them to Tieshan.

For North Korean soldiers, Diao Zheng does not expect them to play much role at all. The most important reason why North Korea sends troops is that the Dazhong army will rely on North Korea to share part of the burden of logistics support for them in the future, so as to reduce the pressure on logistics transportation in Shandong. As for those North Korean soldiers, It is definitely not possible to fight, but they can be used as auxiliary soldiers to help the Dazhong army deliver grain and materials, build roads and build forts. There is still not much problem in doing such chores.

With the ignition of the war on the eastern front of Liaodong, Jiannu was completely confused. Although Huang Taiji and Dornon were attwined, at this time, they still realized that if they continued to make trouble, then their Jiannu was likely to be finished. Therefore, Huang Taiji and Dornon temporarily put down their grudges and put down their grievances. Attention is focused on the war in the area of Ningjin.

As soon as Luo Li took action in Jinzhou, Huang Taiji sent Jirhalang to lead 20,000 Tartar soldiers to Daling River Fort, and responded to Dorgon stationed in Jinzhou behind, hoping to block the Dazhong army on the front line of the Daling River and save the whole Liaodong. In this way, even if Jinzhou is lost, they can use Yizhou and Dalinghe. The fort can also greatly weaken Dolg's strength.

However, Huang Taiji did not expect that the Dazhong Dynasty would suddenly send a large number of Dazhong troops to Pidao, Tieshan and Xuanzhou, and fiercely wedge a nail in their backs.

Originally, Huang Taiji did not fail to consider that the Dazhong Army might land across the sea on the Liaodong Peninsula, following the example of Mao Wenlong's Dongjiang Town in those years, forcing them to suffer from the enemy.

However, the generals of Huang Taiji and Jiannu all focused their attention on the Jinzhou area, especially the Lushunkou area. They believed that even if the Great Middle Dynasty sent troops to cross the sea to land in Liaodong, they would first choose this area to seize the bridgehead, and then attack the abdomen of Liaodong in the north.

Therefore, for more than a year, Huang Taiji has paid attention to strengthening troops in the Jinzhou area. In addition to arranging nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses in Jinzhou, he also set up forts in the area of Lushunkou, trying to prevent the landing of the Dazhong army in this area, and then taking advantage of their mobile strength to build the slave army. Once the Dazhong army successfully landed in Lushunkou, and And if they break through Jinzhou, they can also fortification all the way from Jinzhou to Fuzhou, Gaizhou and Liaoyang, dragging down the Dazhong army landing in Liaodong.

But they didn't expect that the Dazhong army would choose to land in Pi Island directly, and then capture Tieshan, Xuanzhou and other places. In this way, their layout in Jinzhou would be in vain.

When the news that the Dazhong army suddenly attacked Pi Island and quickly captured Tieshan and Xuanzhou reached Shengjing, the whole Jiannu Shengjing was in an uproar.

After Huang Taiji heard the news, he almost vomited blood on the spot, but even so, he immediately fainted.

Huang Taiji is by no means a stupid person, otherwise he would not have taken over the power of his father's wild boar skin and have been in power for so long. He is very clear about the loss of Pi Island, Xuanzhou, Tieshan and other places, and what it means to them to build slaves.

All his previous arrangements, because the fall of Pi Island and Tieshan fell into the open space, the whole army arranged in Jinzhou on the Liaodong Peninsula not only did not prevent the Dazhong Army from giving them a knife in the waist behind the side, but also became a lonely division hanging on the Liaodong Peninsula.

What's even more frightening to him is that North Korea is not very obedient in the first place. The Dazhong army now appears on Pi Island again. North Korea will definitely immediately turn to Dazhong North Korea and help the Dazhong army to deal with their slaves.

As long as this large and medium-sized army captures Zhenjiangbao and Yizhou, the Qing army in Jinzhou will be blocked on the Liaodong Peninsula, and their Qing Dynasty will be in danger in the next step.

So Huang Taiji, who was rescued by the imperial doctor for first aid, immediately issued an order to make the Jinzhou Jiannu garrison immediately return to Zhenjiangbao, so as to block the Dazhong army in Yizhou and continue the attack on the hinterland of Liaodong.

As for Jinzhou, Huang Taiji can no longer be estimated at this time. Now the strength of their Qing army has declined. Without the Mongolians and the Han army, there are now less than 100,000 flag soldiers left in the whole Manchurian flag, and there are only 150,000 people who can be used to fight. At this time, they can't defend such a large Liaodong Peninsula, so now they can only take a defensive posture, shrink first, and then seek to fight back.

In this way, throughout the summer, Jiannu had to use both east and west troops at the same time to resist the attack of the Dazhong army on Liaodong.

After the beginning of the campaign in Liaodong, a large number of large and medium-sized troops began to enter the land of Liaodong from the east and west. First, Luo Li's left army conquered Jinzhou like a broken bamboo. Then in mid-May, after receiving the reinforcements of follow-up troops, Luo Li began to lead the army to attack the Jiannu army around Dalinghebao. The offensive was launched.

Jiannu tried to rely on the terrain around Dalinghe Fort to prevent the Dazhong army from crossing the Daling River, but at this time the Mongols also began to act. However, this time they did not come to help Jiannu deal with the Dazhong army, but turned their heads and began to help the Dazhong army deal with their old master.

Nearly 10,000 Mongolian cavalry of several tribes gathered in the area of the Khalkha region and roared into the control area of Jiannu. While Jiannu put their main forces in the area of Daling River and Yizhou, they entered the control area of Jiannu as if they were in a no-man's land. As long as they saw the village of Jiannu, they would slaughter them and kill them directly. The Manchurian flag man is full of corpses and blood flowing into rivers.

The betrayal of the Mongols made the situation of Jiannu even worse. The newly defeated Dorcon had to lead troops to deal with these Mongols, leaving only Jir Harang to continue to fight against the Dazhong army in the area of Dalinghebao.

However, Jirhalang's troops and firepower did not have an advantage at all. After several fights, Jierhalang was defeated in a row and was finally compressed into the Daling River Fort.

Luo Li led more than 30,000 Chinese troops and surrounded the Dalinghe Fort at once, and then transferred nearly a hundred heavy guns from the direction of Jinzhou, which were set up outside the city of Daling and launched a continuous bombardment on the Daling River Fort for seven days.

Jielhalang led the troops to defend the Daling River Fort, and he finally tasted the power of the artillery fire of the Dazhong Army. In the past seven days, the heavy artillery of the Dazhong Army bombarded the Daling River Fort almost day and night. This time, Luo Li gave full play to the advantages of the firepower of the Dazhong Army and killed as much as possible at the price of paying as few casualties as possible. According to the principle of building a slave army, he did not organize a serious attack in these seven days, but repeatedly bombarded the Dalinghe Fort with cannons. The slave soldiers defending the city were flesh and blood, but there was nothing they could do.

In the past seven days, Jirhalang, who was anxious, sent troops out of the city many times to try to counterattack the artillery array of the Dazhong army, but without exception, he was beaten back by the musketeers of the Dazhong army with the platoon tactics. Except for the body on the ground, the Jiannu who went out of the city could not touch the edge of the gun array at all. On the contrary, he let the Dazhong army beheaded a lot. His head was densely picked out of the city.

Lying on the collapsed wall, the Jiannu soldiers looked at the wooden poles set up like a forest outside the city in horror. On each wooden pole was carrying the head of the Jiannu soldiers. By the seventh day, the morale had already fallen into the crotch.

The non-stop shelling made there no safe place in the Daling River Fort. All the people in the castle were worried that shells would fall on their heads at any time. They did not dare to sleep all night. After being eagle-like for seven days, the Jiannu army in the city completely collapsed.

On the eighth day, Dalinghe Fort was not much of a solid wall. At this time, it simply turned into a pair of trousers. It was bombarded with holes, and many places had begun to collapse, and it had long been unable to play its due defensive role.

Although in the past seven days, Zierhalang sent people to repair the wall damaged by artillery every day, their repair speed was far less than the speed of the artillery attack of the Dazhong army, and the Dazhong army carried out artillery bombardment every time the slave army tried to repair the wall, and a large number of enemy soldiers were killed and injured. It's heavy.

On the morning of the eighth day, Luo Li ordered the last order to launch a rapid shot at the Dalinghe Fort. After about half an hour of shelling, several people and horses that had already prepared began to attack the Daling River Fort at the same time. The Jiannu army, which had been already been down, could no longer stop the attack of the Dazhong army. In just half a day, the Daling River Fort was attacked by Dazhong. The army broke through from three directions almost at the same time.

Nearly ten thousand soldiers poured into the Daling River Fort like floods and beasts. After entering the city, they killed and cut people along the way. Even if some slave soldiers abandoned their weapons and surrendered, they didn't care at all. The soldiers who killed the red-eyed soldiers would roar past, leaving only the bodies of the ground.

After the end of the war, nearly 10,000 flag soldiers and residents of the castle in the blue flag in the whole Daling River Fort were captured less than a thousand people alive, and the rest were slaughtered. Even the prisoners of less than a thousand people were immediately pulled out after the end of the war. Outside the city, only a hundred and a hundred Han people were left, and the rest were slaughtered outside the city.

The slave chief Zilhalang persisted to the end, but he also died in the chaos. The body was cleaned up after the war. However, when his body was found, Zilhalang's body was already fragmented, leaving only one thigh and half an arm.

However, in contrast, the Dazhong army only paid less than 700 casualties in the battle of Dalinghebao, of which less than 200 were killed, and most of the rest could return to the army to continue their service after receiving treatment.

The Battle of Dalinghebao can be said to be a great victory, which almost destroyed all the resistance of Jiannu in the east and west of Liaoning, and completely turned the battle between the east and west of Liaoning to the Dazhong army.
