"It's not impossible for Lord Zhao to follow," Xu Ming decided: "It's just that what I'm going to do, I may be taboo in the future. If Lord Zhao doesn't want to do anything, it's fine. If there is something I shouldn't have to think about, we won't be polite at that time..."

"Of course," Zhao Lide smiled and said, "I have taken off my official robe. Do you think I am laughing at you?"

Xu Ming said helplessly: "I really didn't expect this to happen... Lord Zhao, you have been doing business with us at the beginning, and you are waiting for this time, right?"

Zhao Lide smiled, but in Xu Ming and Cheng Fang's eyes, no matter how he looked at the smile, he felt a little desolate...

After being interrupted by Zhao Lide, everyone's hands and feet were much faster.

Cheng Fang told Zhao Lide that according to He Yusheng's judgment, Guangning City and the garrisons relying on Guangning will be launched in large quantities, and dozens of main forces of the fortress and post districts will participate in the battle. The result of the war is that the failure of the main force's battle is that there is no more warships from Guangning to western Liaoning, and there is no fortress to defend. He Yusheng chose the Thirteen Mountains, a mountainous area not far from Guangning, to avoid it for a while.

After hearing this, Zhao Lide smiled slightly and said, "I don't believe a word of what you say."

Cheng Fang was speechless, but Xu Ming laughed.

At dusk, the people of Yusheng were ready, and in addition to the convoy, there were quite a few people riding horses.

It was only then that Zhao Lide realized that He Yusheng had so many cars and horses and men, which completely exceeded his imagination.

Not only are there many people, but most of them are young people in their seventies and eighties to twenty years old, and almost very few are over thirty years old.

Zhao Lide sarcastically said: "He Yusheng's Guangning branch is really interesting. More than a hundred people don't do any business here..."

"Each one another," Cheng Fang retaliated: "Ambassador Zhao doesn't seem to like doing his own part. In the face of a crisis, isn't it just that he abandoned his official position and fled first."

Zhao Lide was stunned and had nothing to say.

Everyone walked out in a winding direction, and when they came out of the city gate, they realized that the army had not finished yet.

This time, the main force gathered tens of thousands of people, and several other troops rushed to the Xipingbao area from elsewhere, and were expected to pass through Shaling and Pingyang Bridge.

Of course, the main generals were several generals, and there were many generals dispatched, including the general Bao Chengxian, the general Hei Yunhe, the general Jiang Chaodong and others. The generals of the generals of the two meteries gathered a large number of cavalry, and then the general flag of the guerrilla generals. Everyone saw that Sun Degong and Zu Dashou had the most troops, especially Zu Dashou's subordinates were particularly elite. Not only were all cavalry, but they also had strict orders and were also very well-equipped.

Under the guidance of the Zu banner, thousands of cavalry marched in an orderly manner, raising smoke and dust, and soon disappeared.

Zhao Lide couldn't help but sigh in his heart. If the Guangning Army's troops were as elite as Zu Dashou's command, there would be a real chance in this battle...

Shisan Mountain is very close to Guangning. There are many people living under the mountain road below the mountain road. They are all mountain people. Some people are doing farm work in the field, some are already busy with supper, and some hunters are coming down from the mountain, carrying prey like wild pheasants on their shoulders. Everyone is talking and laughing, slowly turning back their homes.

The carriages and horses gradually couldn't move along the mountain road. Fortunately, He Yusheng had a parking spot prepared in advance. After the car was parked, the people rode their horses and continued to go up.

At this time, the entire Guangning City seemed to be at its feet. Guangning was originally built on the mountain, a military fortress-like city. At this time, the city was brightly lit. Zhao Lide, Cheng Fang and others stopped at the same time, stopped on the mountain road and watched the scene in the city.

After a while, Cheng Fang suddenly said: "I escaped from Kaiyuan. The night before the Donglu came to attack, Kaiyuan was like this. In the evening, people started lighting the lights, cooking, children were playing outside, and men had a few drinks. No matter how life was, it was peaceful. As soon as the Donglu arrived..."

Cheng Fang did not continue, but everyone present knew that the Kaiyuan and Tieling Massacre were almost complete without any explanation.

"Let's go." Xu Ming said: "Everything is done by man. Isn't it to fight against the Donglu today?"

...

"The Battle of Shaling has been completed. Guangning fell on the 23rd. The battle has been completed..."

Zhang Han and others sat in the military intelligence room, their faces were very serious.

"Wang Huazhen deserves to die." Sun Jingting beat the table and scolded: "I talked about fighting wildly, but I don't know the enemy or the others. The Mongolians he trusted had not arrived yet. The Sun Degong, who he believed, turned out to be a traitor. Zu Dashou, who he believed most, led his troops to escape first. When he heard that the front was defeated, he immediately led two servants to escape first. Such a governor is simply a shame for me, a scholar in the Ming Dynasty!"

As soon as the result of the Battle of Guangning came out, almost everyone felt depressed and surprised.

If Sarhu was defeated because the Ming army was not in harmony and fought hard, Shenyang and Liaoyang were also unable to compete on the battlefield. The Sichuan Army and Zhejiang Army were all defeated after fighting hard, but Guangning lost so cowardly and shamefully.

The main force of the Ming army went to assist Xiping Fort, but as soon as he crossed Pingyang Bridge, he encountered the main force of the Later Jin soldiers. The Ming army barely launched a full moon formation attack. As a result, Sun Degong of the left wing fled first, and then Zu Dashou ran away. The Ming army was in chaos because of this. Later, he was ambushed when he fled to Shaling. Tens of thousands of troops were slaughtered, but the losses of the Later Jin soldiers were negligible. The Ming army was buried for dozens of miles, and people did not need to pass by with lanterns for decades. There were tiny pieces of phosphorus and fire there, which could be used to light the way.

Wang Huazhen had not known the passage in Guangning City yet, and Sun Degong had already led his troops back. If it weren't for the general Jiang Chaodong leading him to escape, Wang Huazhen would probably become the first captive governor of the Ming Dynasty.

After escaping to Youtun, Wang Huazhen met Xiong Tingbi. Xiong Tingbi teased him and said, "Which one of them said that 60,000 soldiers could destroy the Eastern Captains?"

Wang Huazhen had nothing to answer. Later, he and Xiong Tingbi fled into the pass with the people. Behind them, more than 40 post station military forts, including Yizhou, Pingyang Bridge, Xiping Fort, Xining Fort, Dalinghe Post, Zhenwu Fort, Luyang Post, Xiaoling River, Shisanshan Post, Songshan, Xingshan, Qianmaling, Tashan Fort, and almost all the land in western Liaoning were completely lost. Nuerhaci not only obtained 500,000 stones of grain and a large amount of military weapons, but also captured hundreds of thousands of Liaoxi military and civilians, and in the shortest time, they used forced methods to cross the Liao River and become the robbery of the Later Jin Dynasty.

After the defeat of Guangning, the five tribes of the Neikhal, the Chahar headquarters, the eight vassals, and the Korqin tribes all faced the Later Jin Dynasty, and the Mongolian began to enter the next attack range of the Later Jin Dynasty.

“Time is getting more and more urgent…”

Zhang Han's face was also rare to be nervous. The more he did, the more he felt that his strength was still far from enough... After this series of battles, the Later Jin soldiers were indeed stronger and stronger. In terms of the level of the cold weapon army, they had already left the Ming army far behind. Moreover, by this time, the Later Jin almost occupied the entire Liao army, and under his rule, millions of Han people, and the number of the Eight Banners' mobilization capabilities and Ding Guards increased significantly. Although Nuerhaci took counter-attacks after the fourth year of the Tianqi reign, killing a large number of Han people and weakening the Han army, Huang Taiji quickly reversed this passive situation. In a few years, the Mongolian surrendered, and soon formed the Eight Banners of the Han army, and their strength was greatly enhanced. By the Chongzhen period, the Later Jin had become a giant and was no longer a small barbarian country in the eyes of the literati and officials of the Ming Dynasty.

"I want to personally go to Heihe River..." Zhang Han stood up and said, "The military and political affairs over there need someone to preside over..."

"Wenlan, you are still in charge of Lizhuang and Weicheng," Sun Jingting said: "There is indeed a need for people ahead, and I think I'll go."

Li Shenming also said: "Wenlan, don't be confused. Li Zhuang and Aicheng cannot live without you for the time being. Even if it is not Xiaozheng, it should be mine."

Li Dongxuedao: "Sir, you can't go out easily. Now all departments are almost all ordering to transfer north. We and Yusheng have been shocking all parties before and dare not act without action. If the main force goes out, it is hard to say whether any accident will happen..."

Zhang Han had to sit down and frowned and said, "So far, more than 18,000 civilians have been mobilized. One battalion is in service, one battalion is training, and three battalions are gathering. Six divisions have been mobilized to head north, and three divisions are mobilizing so many personnel. There are more than 20,000 stones of grain transported, and various vegetables and meat, as well as various equipment. The baggage soldiers are in hand, but no... they have two baggage shovels, and various picks, shovels, and saws. Why hasn't the Xiaohe Fort been built yet? The military platform has been built, and fifteen docks have been built, which has initially guaranteed the safety of the from Xinpingbao to Daheihe, Zhangjiakou to Daqinghe... But this speed is too slow, too slow!"

Li Shenming looked helpless and said, "The weather turned cold and snowed a while ago. Later, it was said that it was time to work, and then it began to be harassed everywhere... Previously, Ah Cheng and Taiji gave up the battle, but the harassment became more intense. It was March and the weather was warmer. The day before yesterday, Sun Yao told me that the General Staff Department had heard the report of the Military Intelligence Bureau. The recent meeting between Taiji and Ji on the grassland has increased significantly. Within one to two months, a large-scale war will surely break out. Before that, the military fort must be repaired, otherwise we will be too passive..."

The strategy of Zhang Han and his subordinates was to use the military fort to continue to build forward, and eventually they had to arrive at Qingcheng and Bansheng City, east and west. As long as the military fort was built along the rivers, they could clamp down the Western Mongolian divisions including Qingcheng and protect the business road to the east.

"You must grab the time." Zhang Han said: "Brother Xiaozheng is here quickly. I hope you can do everything possible and build several important military forts before the beginning of summer."

"Yes, please rest assured." Sun Jingting said: "I will go to the Military Order Command now, select the entourage, and then assign the matter to the deputy, and set off immediately."
