Chapter 990 accident

Jin Qiude really didn't believe what Liu Peng said: "Jiannu was not willing to defend Yuanzhou with all his heart. It should be only a matter of time before he withdrew from Xiaobang!"

He knew very well what Wonju had in North Korea!

Wonju can be said to be one of the most important fortress cities in the north of North Korea. Before being captured by Jiannu, the Li Dynasty even deployed more than 30,000 elite soldiers here. It was originally thought that no matter how many Jiannu came, it would be able to resist for ten days and half a month, but the facts proved that the regular army of the Li Dynasty was simply useless. Tens of thousands of soldiers collapsed after thousands of casualties and wounded thousands of soldiers.

But no matter what, the Battle of Yuanzhou can be said to be the largest resistance organized by the Li Dynasty, and Yuanzhou can also be said to be the most important city in the hands of the Later Jin army. Now the Haibei Army only used the power of two infantry companies to recover Yuanzhou, which was equivalent to opening up the next road to the Yalu River. How could Liu Peng say that there was another big battle?

But Jin Qiude felt that he would have enough trust and support for Liu Peng on this issue. He immediately asked, "What should the heavenly soldiers do next!"

"Since Huang Taiji and Amin both asked me to jump into this fire pit, wouldn't I be embarrassed if I didn't jump in? I will order the Liaonan regiments to nail two red flags and two red flags with all their strength. I'll see what tricks Amin can do!"

As long as the Haibei Army restrained the two red flags and two white flags in southern Liaoning, the military force Jiannu invested in North Korea would be extremely limited. Liu Peng did not think that Amin's blue flag could produce any tricks. After all, Liu Peng now has three and a half infantry regiments in his hands.

But Liu Peng still felt a bit mysterious about how easy it was to recover Yuanzhou.

Although Liu Peng told Jin Qiude that there were only two companies of the Haibei Army to recover Yuanzhou, the actual force was a strengthening company and a North Korean volunteer squadron with a total force of about 400 people, and a slight victory was made in the process of recovering Yuanzhou.

According to the battle report reported by Huo Qiu, the reconnaissance operation against Yuanzhou City was carried out by the second company of the Black Flag Regiment under the regiment's reconnaissance platoon and the battalion's Volunteer Squadron, which was supported by a cavalry platoon and other units. At first, it was only planned to conduct tentative reconnaissance and attacks near Yuanzhou City.

After all, according to the Volunteer Squadron, the Li Dynasty once stationed tens of thousands of soldiers in Yuanzhou. Now the Jiannu who stationed in Yuanzhou and the Korean slaves who were fleeing with the troops shall not be less than 5,000.

With the force of less than 400 people in the reconnaissance detachment, there was no hope of taking down the strong city of Yuanzhou. However, during the reconnaissance detachment suddenly discovered that Jiannu had begun to retreat from Yuanzhou, so he decisively launched an assault.

During the battle, about 100 Jiannu Zhenta were annihilated, captured, killed and wounded Han soldiers, Mongolian cavalry, and North Korean servants. As for other Jiannu, they accelerated their collapse and escaped from Yuanzhou after the battle started, and suffered a considerable loss from the Korean Yi soldiers along the way. Now Yuanzhou City is firmly controlled by the Haibei Army.

But Liu Peng knew that this battle report must be very rich. When the Black Flag Regiment's reconnaissance detachment entered Yuanzhou, the main force of the Inlaid Blue Flag should have withdrawn from Yuanzhou, so they were caught off guard by the reconnaissance detachment. Moreover, their results were definitely not as brilliant as those mentioned in the battle report. It would be a perfect ending to have 50 Jiannu Zhenta who were killed.

But no matter what, this battle showed an extraordinary meaning. For Amin Beller and the Inlaid Blue Banner, Yuanzhou Tun had a large amount of food and supplies. During the retreat, they only transferred some of the urgently needed military supplies, and even did not have time to burn and discard the supplies, resulting in the satisfactory seizure of the reconnaissance detachment. Now Yuanzhou can be short of food and supplies and other supplies.

But the more Amin struggled, Liu Peng wouldn't think he wasn't singing the empty city plan. Moreover, the Haibei Army is more calm in advancing and retreating, and it can definitely be said to be invincible. It is precisely this that the Haibei Army will definitely not jump into the trap set by Jiannu.

But Liu Peng was becoming more and more interested in the arrangements between Amin and Huang Taiji: "Is conspiracy enough? They should not forget that I commanded the Changfeng Brigade!"

That's right, Liu Peng is not commanding other troops now, but the Changfeng Brigade of the Haibei Army, the elite troops ranked first in the entire Haibei Army.

It is precisely because of this Changfeng brigade that Liu Peng has the confidence to win over the sky.

For Yuanzhou, the Korean military and civilians here were all relieved. This group of Jiannu from the north was a group of real barbarians. They burned, killed, robbed, and the damage they caused in Yuanzhou might not be restored in ten years. But now, the Ming Dynasty's Haibei Army has recovered this place, and this Haibei Army is completely different from the Ming army in the past.

Although North Korea thanked the Ming Dynasty for sending troops to aid for decades of Japanese war, the military records of this Ming army at that time were really disappointing.

Strictly speaking, "disappointing" is a very polite statement. Many times, because the Ming Dynasty court could not provide enough food and supplies to the Ming army, the Ming army could only recruit them on the spot, and their number of troops was astonishingly large. The final result was that the entire Yuanzhou still remembered the military discipline of the Ming army back then.

Of course, compared with the Later Jin army, the military discipline of the Ming army is not bad, but there is no harm in the absence of comparison. At present, this Haibei army is indeed a true army of benevolence and righteousness, a army of kings.

It is their good military discipline that allowed the remaining military and civilians of Yuanzhou to voluntarily organize several more Yi soldiers to fight with them in concert. Everyone is confident that they will not only take back Yuanzhou, but also defend Yuanzhou, and even attack northward to recover more cities.

However, Bai Xiaofeng, the chief general of the Battle of Yuanzhou, was not so optimistic. He felt that he was not sure to defend Yuanzhou at all. Although Huo Qiu agreed to send him a half company of reinforcements at the first time, Bai Xiaofeng's total strength was only a thousand, and the Haibei Army here was only 400 at most, and there were many Korean new recruits among the four hundred Haibei Army.

Although the Haibei Army has been steadily and progressing slowly recently, the senior management of the Haibei Army, including Liu Peng, has not been idle, but has made a series of big moves. The biggest move is to incorporate a considerable number of Korean Yi soldiers into the Haibei Army, just to distinguish them from those Yi soldiers who spontaneously organized uprisings. The Haibei Army called them "Yi Zheng".

Each infantry battalion of the Haibei Army is equipped with a volunteer squadron. Although this volunteer squadron is a company-level unit, its actual strength is only forty or fifty people, which is only equivalent to a reinforced platoon of the Haibei Army. In addition, each infantry company of the Haibei Army has strengthened 10 to 20 Korean volunteer chariots. It is these Korean volunteer chariots that greatly enriched the strength of the Haibei Army.

Bai Xiaofeng initially felt that these bravery were insignificant, after all, they were almost all newly recruited recruits.

However, this Wonju battle made him realize that the North Korean volunteers trained by the Haibei Army were completely different from the ordinary North Korean volunteer soldiers. Although he only trained these North Korean volunteers for more than ten days, it was less than a month for the longest training of the North Korean volunteers.

However, the level of cooperation with the Haibei Army alone is incomparable. The righteous and righteous soldiers are completely different, not to mention that the righteous bravery has many significant improvements in combat effectiveness. But the biggest problem is that Bai Xiaofeng not only does not have many veterans of the Haibei Army, but also has less than a hundred North Korean volunteers.

As for the ordinary Yuanzhou Yishang, although Bai Xiaofeng has a very good evaluation of them and those who can stand up at this time can be called the mainstay, the problem is that they are just a group of brave mobs, and at least ten days and half a month of training will come in handy, and many of them are unwilling to accept Bai Xiaofeng's dispatch.

Although Jiannu hastily withdrew from Yuanzhou, Bai Xiaofeng knew that Jiannu in front of him had at least nearly 10,000 troops, and as long as these Jiannu were willing to invest in capital, they could even mobilize tens of thousands of troops. In this case, it would be very difficult for Bai Xiaofeng to continue pursuing, not to mention that he would continue to pursue Yuanzhou.

In this case, Bai Xiaofeng must speed up the next action. He immediately said: "Tell the regiment commander, one and a half companies are far from enough. I need the entire Black Flag regiment to reinforce. Only when the main force of the Black Flag regiment comes up can we have the hope of defending Yuanzhou."

As for Bai Xiaofeng's request, Huo Qiu also made up his mind: "That's right, we must go all over our Black Flag Group!"

He knew that his black flag regiment had become the key target of Jiannu's hunting, but in recent adjustments, the black flag regiment had incorporated a large number of North Korean volunteers, and the total force had exceeded 2,500, which made him full of confidence.

Moreover, although the city walls of Yuanzhou were demolished by Jiannu, the reconnaissance detachment was dispatched too quickly. Now Yuanzhou is stocking up a large amount of supplies, which is suitable for the long-term defense of the Haibei Army.

If Huo Qiu felt that he was not confident when attacking the Lanqin Banner, then when it comes to defensive battles, every regiment-level officer of the Haibei Army was a master-level figure, and Huo Qiu was even more a master among the masters. As long as he relied on Yuanzhou City, not to mention tens of thousands of Jiannu, even Huang Taiji personally fought, Huo Qiu also had the determination to defend Yuanzhou City.

When Huo Qiu thought of this, he thought of another question: "The current problem is how to transfer the main force of the regiment to Yuanzhou City!"

Yuanzhou City's troops are too thin. Now there is only one second company in the garrison. Although he has sent one and a half companies, even if the reinforcements can meet with the reconnaissance detachment, their strength is still slightly insufficient. Only when the main force of the Black Flag Regiment arrives in Yuanzhou safely can Huo Qiu win steadily.

Huo Qiu always felt that Jiannu must have wanted to severely damage the Black Flag Group with thunder in the process of his transfer to Yuanzhou. After all, as long as he enters Yuanzhou City, nothing is wrong!

However, Huo Qiu did not expect that all the actions that followed were smooth. Although there were several small-scale combat contacts, the Black Flag Group entered Yuanzhou City safely.
