Chapter three hundred and forty fifth war
Qi Jiguang narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Chengliang, and finally said, "What a good idea!" As he said, Qi Jiguang explained, "It's just a little comforting. Ruqi, I'll transfer you north this time, I guess Ruqi should know my intention, right?"
At this time, Li Chengliang naturally couldn't pretend to be stupid. You are the general of Liaodong, so you can't even have this strategic vision!
"The Grand Marshal wants to attack Korqin!" Li Chengliang said directly.
"Those who know me are your friendship!" Qi Jiguang exclaimed: "Whether you want to manage the three parts of the Duoyan tribes well or go west to fight, Korqin must be destroyed!"
History is always surprisingly similar. In his previous life, Nurhaci advanced westward, and the first one to fight was Korqin. In this life, when the Ming Dynasty advanced westward, the same one to fight was Korqin, which was also determined by his geographical location.
Li Chengliang couldn't help but sigh that Qi Jiguang was indeed going to attack Korqin!
"I sent someone to the Jurchen tribe just to stabilize them, so as not to make trouble for us when we were fighting Korqin!" Qi Jiguang explained to Li Chengliang with a smile.
Li Chengliang laughed and said, "The Grand Marshal has his own arrangements, so he naturally obeys the humble position."
The two people smiled, Qi Jiguang pointed to the map and said, "In this battle, I am preparing to wipe out the Korqin tribe. With the cavalry of you and me, a total of 60,000 people swept across the road."
"The attack on the various Korqin divisions, with 40,000 infantry soldiers behind them gathering livestock, cattle and horses and the people of the Korqin tribe."
As he said that, Qi Jiguang drew a big circle: "From the three routes of west, east and middle, we will directly attack the Korqin Khan tent."
Li Chengliang naturally did not object to Qi Jiguang's arrangement. The two of them mentioned some details and then determined the battle plan against Korqin this time. At the same time, Qi Jiguang also told Li Chengliang about the hunting and Weng Guodai.
"Is the Grand Marshal preparing to ambush Weng Guodai?" Li Chengliang heard that Qi Jiguang had sent someone to contact Weng Guodai, and then asked.
"No!" Qi Jiguang shook his head: "The army was mobilized too much, and it was impossible to hide it from the horses of the Korqin tribe. Once the horses of the Korqin tribe attacked, Weng Guodai of Korqin would know what we wanted to do."
"The previous connection is nothing more than a strategy to make Weng Guodai relax his vigilance."
"This battle will be unexpected. Your troops will be repaired for two days. When the morning comes, the army will set off and start this battle directly. In this battle, you must try your best to capture Weng Guodai and Korqin's troops alive."
Li Chengliang was stunned: "Master, it's not necessary to try his best to capture it alive? Although it's more meritorious to capture it alive, don't have any accidents, it will be a loss."
Qi Jiguang shook his head directly: "No, I want to capture it alive. I am also planning to let someone suppress the prisoners to come to Beijing to offer victory. If there are only two or three kittens and three dogs, our faces will be lost!"
When Li Chengliang heard Qi Jiguang's words, he sighed and finally understood what the gap between him and Qi Jiguang was.
Not only can this guy bet, but he also does a very good job of flattery! Thinking about it, he is also good at fighting here, you can't let the emperor watch in the capital!
At the same time, Li Chengliang was wondering in his mind whether he had to learn from Qi Jiguang?
In the past, I always wanted to make friends with ministers to consolidate my position, and seemed to be neglecting to be loyal to the emperor. This seemed not very good. If I had to change it, I would have to change it.
"The general is right, I will continue to explain!" Li Chengliang agreed with a smile.
The Ming Dynasty was actively preparing for war, and two days passed quickly. In the morning of the third day, 60,000 Ming cavalry were ready to go. They were divided into three directions and rushed towards Korqin.
On the west road, Liu Jing led 20,000 people, the east road was 20,000 cavalry led by Wu Weiying, and the middle road was 20,000 people led by Li Chengliang.
Qi Jiguang personally brought 40,000 troops behind, while 20,000 troops were guarding the camp. Qi Jiguang mobilized all the war horses from Fuyu's troops, and Li Chengliang brought the war horses, which greatly improved the Ming army's capacity and mobility.
With Qi Jiguang's order, 60,000 Ming cavalry rushed directly to Korqin.
The entire Korqin part is composed of the left and right wings, namely the Korqin right wing and the Korqin left wing, which is the main resident grassland of Korqin.
This time Qi Jiguang mobilized his troops. Liu Jue on the right attacked Korqin's left wing, Wu Weiying on the left attacked Korqin's right wing, while Li Chengliang took the Korqin's right wing.
The journey from Fuyu's troops to Korqin was not far, and the Ming army rushed to the road with all their might. At ten o'clock in the afternoon, the war began.
The first thing to be hit was the Korqin left wing close to the side of the Ming army. The Ming army rushed all the way and rushed over directly. Whenever they encountered resistance, they would be killed, and then they took away all the horses.
The remaining population and livestock were not taken away by the Ming army, and they were all left to Qi Jiguang.
In this way, the Ming army advanced very quickly. When night fell, the Ming army on the right successively broke through the three tribes of Korqin, and then stopped.
Although the left-road army is not as fast as the right-road army, it is almost the same.
When night fell, I broke through a tribe and set up camp directly in this tribe.
When night fell, a group of people rushed into the Korqin Khan tent. The leader was a strong man in his thirties. His rough face was full of murderous aura. He turned over from the horse and walked directly towards Weng Guodai's Khan tent.
The guards in the Khan Tent also stopped him, but someone ran to report the message to Weng Guodai.
The person who came was none other than Weng Guodai's eldest son Oba. When Oba came in from outside, Weng Guodai had just heard the report from his personal guards and saw Oba rushing in directly, Weng Guodai's face instantly sank.
"Oba, what are you going to do?" Weng Guodai stared at Oba, like an old wolf on the grassland, with sharp eyes. You must know that at this time, Oba should not be here, but should be on guard against the Ming army in front.
Although the Ming army said it nicely, the Ming army put 100,000 people beside him, and Weng Guodai could not be really at ease.
Obama directly ignored the eyes of his father Khan and said loudly: "Father Khan, the Ming army is here!"
When Weng Guodai heard this, he jumped up from his sweat seat and said in disbelief: "What did you say?"
"The Ming army is here!" Obama continued: "This morning, the Ming army invaded Korqin in three groups. The Ming right-road army broke through three parts of our left wing, and the left-road army broke through one part of our right wing."
"The general of the Ming Middle Route Army was Li Chengliang, who had led the army toward the Khan tent."
Weng Guodai's face was full of disbelief, and his body shook for a while and he sat directly on the sweat seat. Why was this happening? Didn't he say that he would attack Chahar? Didn't he say that he would have an alliance? How could this happen?
"Father Khan, hurry up and send orders to mobilize the troops while it's dark!"
Obama looked at his father Khan and said anxiously: "Otherwise it will be too late. The Ming army will launch another attack tomorrow morning, and we will be done by then."
Hearing Obama's words, Weng Guodai suddenly stood up and said, "Yes, yes, send the order!"
Chapter completed!
