Chapter 365: It's up to people

Brazier, warm kang, the house is as warm as spring.

Mao Wenlong sat on the seat next to the warm kang, wiped his sweat, took the local map handed over by the servant, and said intently:

"The old city of Hetuala is strong in defense, with less than 10,000 Jurchen soldiers, and there are quite a few traitors."

"Yes, it's not easy to fight."

Mao Chenglu walked in, sighed, and stood and said:

"Father and Commander, what should I do if the Liao people captured by Jiannu in this village? There are more than 200 people. Will I send a team to send them to their hometowns?"

Since the Dongjiang Army decided to attack the old village, all the troops headed north and did not leave any defenders at Kuandian Six Forts.

The manor they captured earlier today had more than 20 real slaves, hundreds of fake slaves, and more than 200 Liao people. They were under the Yellow Banner of the Second Beile Amin, the Later Jin Dynasty.

After the autumn wind swept away the fallen leaves, it became a difficult point for these captured Liao people. This time they were not guerrilla attacks.

Liaodong also hopes that the Dongjiang army will attract the attention of old slaves and cannot expose their whereabouts in advance.

If it were in the past, Mao Chenglu would not have had this question.

But now is different from the past. Sending a small team to take these more than 200 people back. Once Jiannu's alertness is aroused, it is likely that the result will be in vain.

Mao Wenlong was pondering, but suddenly heard that Kong Youde came to report:

"Master, there is an old man who wants to see you."

"Let him in."

Mao Wenlong soon met the octogenarian. Seeing that he was about to salute him, he hurried forward to support him and said with a wide voice:

"Old man, why should I take this great gift?"

"Master, I came here to be instructed by the villagers. We can just go to Pi Island by ourselves. The army heads north, and we don't have to worry about us."

"It's death or life, let it be by destiny."

"this…"

Mao Wenlong looked at the trembling old man, walked outside the house and saw the Liao people with hope in his eyes, and couldn't bear it for a moment.

Mao Chenglu and Kong Youde went out and looked at each other.

"well!"

Mao Wenlong sighed heavily, looked around the Liao people, and clasped his fists and said, "I, Mao Wenlong, are sorry for everyone, I am ashamed of everyone's hope."

Tears flashed in the old man's eyes and said:

"The general does not need to blame himself. This is our decision. We cannot help the general restore Liao, nor can we drag our backs on it and interfere with the overall situation."

"Old gentleman Gao Yi——!"

Mao Chenglu couldn't help but sigh: "Twenty miles west of this is Wuyun Mountain. There are ten miles of dense forests on the south side of the mountain. The slave horseback team will not go deep."

"When you arrive at Kuandian Six Fortress, there will be no slave cavalry."

The old man took more than 200 Liao people to bid farewell to the Dongjiang Army, supported each other, and left to the Wuyun Mountain that Mao Chenglu had just mentioned.

Kong Youde clenched his fists and said:

"Looking at these people's pale face and thin skin, I'm afraid they have been tortured a lot under the slave soldiers. When we fight to the old village, we have to kill them quickly!"

Mao Wenlong looked at the backs of the Liao people, thoughtfully, and asked with his hands behind his back:

"You said, in the battle of Abudaligan, why did the slave soldiers fight quickly and defeat the strong with the weak and defeat the famous Liu Dadao in our army?"

The Battle of Abu Daligang actually happened during the Battle of Sarhu. Liu Jing was the last famous general in the late Ming Dynasty. Because he was good at using big swords, he was called "Liu Big sword" by the Ming army.

In that battle, Du Song made a quick move forward and was defeated by Nurhaci's light cavalry. Then Nurhaci's slave soldiers were wearing Ming army armor and approached in the heavy fog, raiding Abudaligang.

Liu Jing was injured by a sneak attack and still commanded the Ming army to use firearms to counterattack, severely defeating the slave cavalry. However, the weather was not good at firing the convex gun at that time, and he eventually died in a fierce battle.

"The key is to use strategies!"

Kong Youde was still thinking, but Mao Chenglu said directly:

"They first defeated Du Song's army, stripped their armor, pretended to be our Ming army, approached Liu Dadao's army, and attacked suddenly with fake fakes and real!"

When talking about this battle, Mao Wenlong is very regretful.

Mao Chenglu could see so thoroughly, which surprised Mao Wenlong very much. He glanced over there and nodded and said:

"Although the city of the pseudo-Jin Laozhai is strong, the matter is due to humans."

He paced slowly, pressed his sword with one hand and said:

"If you want to capture the old village, you have to explain your plans."

"Our army continued to go north, collecting Han army's clothing, armor and flags along the way. When we arrived at the old village, we dressed up as Han army and treated the same person as us."

Kong Youde was only 20 years old this year and was called a servant by Mao Wenlong because of his bravery in combat. After all, he lacked experience in the battle and was confused and could not speak at all.

Mao Chenglu laughed:

"The father and commander are so smart, I believe that no slave soldier would think that our army would wear the armor of the Han army and attack their old village!"

Mao Wenlong nodded, still worried in his heart, and said lightly:

"It's best to win the old village in this battle. Even if you can't get it, you'll still make him fall into pieces!"

......

Hetuala.

Nurhaci's former founding ministers only have two of them. This time he went on the expedition, he took away the smart Huerhan and followed the expedition, leaving behind the most steady He Yili to lead the 6,000 Jurchen soldiers of the Zhenghuang Banner to stay in the old village.

He Heli was originally the leader of the Dong'e tribe, one of the Jurchens in Jianzhou. Later, he led his troops to join Nurhaci in the early days of the rebellion and acted as a vanguard.

After unifying the Jurchens of Jianzhou, Nurhaci rewarded his daughter He Yili as his wife, and recruited him as his son-in-law. He was highly valued as a capable general under the tent.

After the establishment of the Later Jin Dynasty, He Heli was called one of the "five ministers" of the founding country by Nurhaci. He was entrusted with important political affairs. Whenever he went to war, he always had to leave behind a steady-nature Heli guarding the old village.

At present, He Yili was sitting in the hall of the Khan court and meeting an important guest. He never expected that at this time, a Ming army of more than 10,000 people was marching here day and night.

As he thought about it, a Jurchen soldier from the Yellow Banner ran over and knelt on the ground and said:

"Sir, Oba is back."

Hearing this, He Yili smiled gently and showed disdain.

Oba, the leader of the five Korqin coalition forces, and the eternal in-laws of the Dajin Aixin Jueluo family, was beaten to the point of being beaten in Fuyuwei, and only led hundreds of light cavalry back to Korqin in a mess.

In Korqin, Aoba was overthrown by his younger brother Budaqi, led the twelve lords of Korqin, and ran back to Hetuara like a dog from a family, begging him to send troops to help him regain the power of the Korqin tribe.

After ordering people to take Obama to the hall, He Yili held a banquet to entertain the defeated friend of Dajin. During the meal, he did not mention the battle of Fuyuwei.

After all, Obama was still the legitimate lord of the Korchin tribe. He Yili gave him enough face, and he still received the meeting on behalf of Nurhaci after taking a shower and changing clothes.

Since childhood, Obama has followed his father to graze and hunt on the grasslands. He has grown strong and strong, broad-shouldered and round waist. But now, after many twists and turns, he has lost the enthusiasm of commanding the five coalition forces not long ago.

After the host and guest seated, He Yili looked at Oba's clothes and said with a smile:

"Look at your appearance, you were kicked out in the middle of the night, right?"

Obama looked around in embarrassment.

At this time, He Yili smiled and said:

"The patriarch can rest assured. I have already shut down everyone. The only ones who are talking to you and me here. If you have anything to say, it doesn't matter."
