Chapter 1722 knocking on the door of Qingzhou
Wu Zheng frowned and said, "How can you joke about such a major military event? If you are not careful, you will increase the casualties of countless soldiers!"
Chen Zhiyuan also restrained himself and said seriously: "It is not difficult for me to attack Antongu. The difficult thing is that you say this battle is not a strong attack but a forced retreat. Otherwise, if Dorbo really hurts, he will probably force him and Fulin and Ajig to join forces."
Wu Zheng nodded and said, "Yes... the enemy is numerous and I am few."
"Your first army has 50,000 people, why do you only transfer 20,000 people to the Yangtze River and even stay there?"
Wu Zheng sneered: "You can't even understand, so the Qing court naturally can't understand even more."
After Chen Zhiyuan frowned and thought, he slapped his knees and said, "Awesome... It's like an arrow on the arrow, it's not triggering, Wu Zheng, I'm really not as good as you!"
Wu Zheng smiled narrowly and said, "Actually, I can't even understand..."
"you……!"
....
Three days later, Wusongwei marched towards Ganyu City in a large scale.
Fenglei Rider began to organize all staff to cross the Shuhe River.
Crossing the river on a large scale naturally cannot hide the scammers of Ganyu Yueyue.
Yue Le knew that he could not defend a small city in Ganyu, but he did not dare to lose the city easily. He had already lost the city of Haizhou. If he lost another city, it would be hard to explain when he went back.
Of course, Yue Le believed that Ganyu City had not yet reached the end of its reach, because behind Andongwei, Dorbo's 20,000 troops were stationed by Dorbo.
But Yue Le has no right to mobilize this army, so he can only ask for help.
Therefore, Yue Le sent people to report to the Qing court and used the imperial court to mediate with Dorbo, while sending people to Andongwei for help.
The commander of the Qing army of Andong Wei, named Eshuo, was from the Zhengbai Banner of Manzhou.
This name is not very obvious, but if you talk about his daughter, it will be quite famous.
If history has not changed, his daughter Dong E should have become the wise concubine of Fulin four years later, known in history as Dong E.
But E Shuo is not a lucky minister, he is indeed a battle based on military achievements.
Before entering the pass, E Shuo's battle of fame was to follow Duoduo to participate in the "Battle of the Entrance". He led a side army, and Bayan Zhuerge attacked Longmenkou. Defeat the Ming defenders? When attacking the former Wang Tun, he killed Yiming's general. Later, he attacked Bao'anzhou. Kill Yiming's complete battle, achieving his military achievements. From this, he was promoted from the hereditary third-class light chariot commander to the real position of assistant.
Later, he was also led by the governor, deputy commander of the guards, and commander of the vanguard? Until now, the first-class baron of the Manchus, the deputy governor of the Manchus (Meer Zhangjing), which was incomparable to the deputy governor of the Qingming Army. It was a second-rank military position in the Qing court.
But why did Eshuo become the leader in Andongwei?
This starts with Dorgon moving south with his illness and strength.
E Shuo is a person who does not take sides, at least? After Huang Taiji's death, he did not choose to take sides between Dorgon and Fulin.
According to later generations, it was a rare neutral person within the Qing court.
However, E Shuo made great achievements in combat, and since he became famous, he followed Dodo and Dorgon fought? The relationship with Dorgon's faction is quite harmonious.
Dorgon led his army south and needed a large number of generals? Then, it is natural that it is reasonable to choose E Shuo, an old subordinate.
And Fulin also thinks that Eshuo is a target that can be won over? Thinking of Dorgon leading so many elite troops out of the capital? Don’t you have to leave some backup plan?
At least E Shuo is a neutral? He will not easily follow Dorgon to "rebellion".
In this way, E Shuo followed Dorgon to Xuzhou, but he didn't expect Xuzhou to be defeated. Dorgon ordered the main protector Dorbo to retreat north.
Eshuo is among them.
When Dorbo gained a foothold in Yanzhou, the Qing court should have recalled E Shuo and returned to Beijing to report on his work.
But the Qing court considered E Shuo's key position in Yanzhou, but did not recall E Shuo, but pretended to be stupid, as if he had forgotten that E Shuo was the man.
Doerbo also thought that E Shuo was a great success in escorting E Shuo and was a "secret minister". So E Shuo, a warrior who was not good at managing, became a "hot commodity" between Doerbo and the Qing court.
This time, Dorbo was invited by the Qing court and Azige and sent a large army to reinforce Yuele, Haizhou, but the army stopped moving forward as soon as it arrived at Andongwei.
This is not because E Shuo's position has changed after this year, but because E Shuo is strictly ordered by Doerbo and is not allowed to move without any action.
But E Shuo was just a pure soldier in his heart, and he was eager to make achievements.
He did not agree with Dorbo's conservatism in his heart, nor did he agree with the tearing between Dorbo and the Qing court.
But E Shuo has always adhered to the bottom line, that is, he cannot disobey Dorbo's orders, lead his command of the Enangbai Banner and Han Banner Army to reinforce Ganyu Yuele without authorization.
When the envoy sent by Yue Le arrived, E Shuo only answered six words - Jinghou the Prince's military order!
But when the Qing court sent secret envoys from the water to Andongwei and brought Fulin's secret order, E Shuo was in a dilemma.
In this era, communication is really slow.
In the same Yanzhou area, Shen Zhiyuan led the new army to make such a big noise, Andong Wei and E Shuo are still unaware of it, and five full days have passed.
Of course, this is also the reason why Shen Zhiyuan strictly ordered the north-south passage from Yizhou to Tancheng.
E Shuo has always regarded the new army in Yizhou as his own people. When he heard the news that Efu led a large number of new army to Yizhou, E Shuo also wondered whether Dorbo was interested in participating in the Battle of Ganyu and sent Efu to come in person to support himself.
In this way, after a night of hard thinking, E Shuo made a choice between the prince and the emperor. The next morning, the Qing army of Andongwei finally moved.
E Shuo personally led an army of 10,000 to reinforce Ganyu.
At this time, the offensive and defense in Ganyu City had been ongoing for two days.
The territory of Lu was "training troops". Wusongwei was feinted every day and stopped after a brief taste. The infantry rushed to a hundred steps away from the city wall and retreated in a coaxing manner.
The defenders on the city were exhausted.
Shen Zhiyuan was right. Yue Le was undoubtedly one of the few generals in the Qing court who was very "insider" in combating firearms.
Given the large number of artillery artillery in Wusongwei, Yue Le designed a method to defend the city, which was to listen to the sound of cannons. The sound of cannons continued. The defenders did not go up to the city walls, leaving only dozens of people to monitor the pre-built fortifications.
But as soon as the cannon sound stopped, the defenders would quickly go up to the city wall to fight in an orderly manner through the advance path.
Yue Le even built two more steps in the city, from the bottom of the city to the city tower.
But after two days of fighting, this method obviously did not play its due role. The enemy outside the city had dozens of feint attacks a day, allowing these defenders to continuously escape from the city to the city, and then run up to the city wall from the city.
Yue Le not only began to doubt whether there would be any conspiracy between the enemy outside the city?
In fact, Yue Le knew very well that Ganyu would not be able to defend it sooner or later. He believed that the enemy outside the city should also know this, but why did the enemy attack for two consecutive days without reason? Yue Le suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his heart. Could it be that... the enemy did not want to suffer huge casualties, just want to force himself to retreat and easily occupy Ganyu?
