Of course, the Ming army built a fortress not to store grain, but to limit the mobility of the Manchu and Mongolian cavalry, trapping them in three big grasslands, making it impossible for them to launch sneak attacks everywhere. Besides, the Ming army did not need to build a place to store grain, because the fortresses were everywhere, and the grain roads were not intercepted at all!

The speed of building a basin of 100,000 or even 300,000 was quite amazing. In addition, the Ministry of Works prepared a sufficient military supplies. Not only were the cement and steel bars prepared, but even the wooden plywood used to pour reinforced concrete was prepared. So basically, the cement was dried and the basin was repaired. It took at most five or six days to build a basin!

Lu Xiangsheng's eastern route was particularly exaggerated. He was a crowded person and was not afraid of the Qing army's sneak attacks. So he divided his army into two routes, and he led the Tianxiong army to 50,000 Wuwei army to escort 150,000 prisoners as one route. Cao Bianjiao and Li Mingfu led the 50,000 Wuwei army and 150,000 prisoners as another route. The two routes started construction at the adjacent entrance at the same time, taking care of each other, and he could build two in five or six days!

The Qing Dynasty had not learned telegrams and communications yet, so their communications were basically based on roars, or fast horses. So when Huang Taiji realized something was wrong, the Ming army on the South and North Roads had already begun to build the third fortress, and Lu Xiangsheng on the East Roads had already begun to build the fifth and sixth fortresses!

Huang Taiji marked the location of the fortress found by all parties on the map, and couldn't help but feel scared and sweated. The exits of the three grasslands and the interconnected passages were almost blocked by the Ming army!

"Sun Chengzong, you are old turtle!" Huang Taiji was so angry that he vomited blood. He really vomited blood. As I analyzed in the previous article, he should have respiratory diseases and vomited blood at any time.

Sun Chengzong is simply his nemesis. No matter how smart he is, this old turtle only uses one move to build a fortress, a fortress, or a fortress. Even if he has a thousand tricks, he just doesn't play with you and only knows how to build a fortress. What can you do with him? Will you change the direction and develop heavy armored infantry? Let a nomadic tribe develop infantry without developing cavalry unless the head is kicked by a donkey!

After vomiting blood, he quickly analyzed the current situation. Time waited for no one. At the speed of the Ming army building fortresses, in more than ten days, all exits and connection channels of the three major grasslands would be blocked. By then, he would lose contact with the Korqin Grassland and the Hailar Grassland.

After analyzing for a while, he issued an order, ordering the Qing army scattered in the Korqin grassland and Hailar grassland to ride on all the horses that could be ridden and rushed back to the Chahar grassland from the only few remaining passages. As for what to do if the Mongolian tribes on the Korqin grassland and Hailar grassland lost their war horses, he no longer cared about it. If he hesitated, the passage would be blocked. The 100,000 Qing troops stationed on the two major grasslands were given to the Ming army for free!

He has now transferred all 100,000 Qing troops back and has a chance to try, because the little emperor still doesn't know that he has a large number of muskets and artillery secrets. If he accidentally defeats the eastern army of the Ming Dynasty and catches the little emperor, he can repeat the victory of Tumubao in the Mongolian Washu tribe and cause chaos in the Ming Dynasty!

In Huang Taiji's view, it is not impossible to defeat the Eastern Army of the Ming Dynasty, because according to spies, the total number of troops on the Eastern Army is only 300,000. The young emperor is now building fortresses, and each fortress must leave at least 10,000 or 20,000 people to guard them. In this way, the maximum number of troops that can be used to attack the Chahar Grassland is only 250,000, and after all the Qing troops gathered, there will be 200,000. Adding to the 100,000 Mongolian troops of the Mongolian troops of the Chahar Grassland, the total number is 300,000. Although 300,000 to 250,000 weapons is a bit disadvantageous, it has an absolute advantage in the number of cavalry and should have a great chance of winning.

As for the issue of cutting off food and grass, he no longer thought about it. People have built so many fortresses. You know which fortress is hidden in. What is more likely to be there in each fortress, so what is the point of killing one or two? Moreover, according to spies, the fortresses of the Ming army were built on mountain bags with a dangerous terrain. The artillery on his side was not far from the other, and the terrain was not conducive to the deployment of the army. There was no way to take down a fortress in a short time. At that time, the little emperor sent any army to copy from behind and he would be finished!

Therefore, Huang Taiji gave up his plan to cut off food and grass, and made every effort to reorganize his army and prepare for war, preparing to fight with the little emperor on the Chahar grassland to compete with the male and female!

And what is our Emperor Chongzheng Zhu Cijing doing? He was sitting in the third fortress that had been built and staring blankly with the telegram. Huang Taiji actually withdrew all the Qing troops from the Korqin Grassland and Hailar Grassland to the Chahar Grassland, and rode away all the war horses. In other words, he was ready to give up these two grasslands, because the Mongolian army without war horses was not as good as the third-class legion of the Ming Dynasty!

Zhu Cijiu was also analyzing, but he had detailed information for reference, so it seemed easier to analyze. Huang Taiji gave up the Korqin Grassland and Hailar Grassland and did not escape. There was only one possibility, that is, he thought he could defeat his southern army!

If Huang Taiji knew that Zhu Ciji had guessed what he thought so easily, he would probably vomit three liters of blood again.

Since he guessed Huang Taiji's idea, Zhu Cijiu naturally would not be foolish and led such a few people to fight Huang Taiji. After thinking about it for a while, he finally sent a telegram to Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chengzong:

The commander of the Eastern Route Army, Lu Xiangsheng, handed over the 50,000 elite cavalry of the Tianxiong Army to Cao Bianjiao, rushed back to Haizhou, took a train to Beidaying, and then secretly rushed to the southwest corner of the Chahar grassland to gather and standby;

Sun Chuanting, the commander of the Northern Army, ordered Sun Chuanting to hand over the 50,000 elite cavalry of the Guanning Army to Cao Wenzhao, rushed back to Guanning, took a train to Beidaying, and then secretly rushed to the southeast corner of the Chahar grassland to gather and standby;

The Minister of War Sun Yuanhua was ordered to mobilize 30 trains to Haizhou City and Guanning City respectively, preparing to transport the cavalry of the Tianxiong Army and Guanning Army.

Of course, he could also transfer more troops from the East and North Army to the South Army to support him. However, after all, there are still 100,000 Mongolian troops each. If the East and North Army are only 100,000, or less than 100,000, it would be more difficult to attack the two grasslands. Besides, what if the movement is too big and the Sun Taiji is scared away? It is already the limit to adjust 50,000 each. If there are more adjustments, Huang Taiji will definitely notice it. If he runs away, it will be troublesome.

After sending the telegram, he continued to lead the army from the south to the next exit of the Chahar grassland. There were two more fortresses to be built. First, block all the exits for him. After repairing the two fortresses, Cao Bianjiao and Cao Wenzhao should also be in place. At that time, the two dark and one light will hit Huang Taiji's Khan Courthouse, and see what else he can do!

By November 8, the last two bastions were finally completed. At this time, the elite cavalry led by Cao Bianjiao and Cao Wenzhao had already been in place, and their correspondents had already pulled the telegram line over.

Zhu Cijiu no longer hesitated and directly led the First Corps of the Imperial Guards, the Qin army and the 50,000 Dingliao army to set off and attack the location of Huang Taiji Khan Court. As for Cao Bianjiao and Cao Wenzhao, he had sent them a telegram order to lead the elite cavalry to follow quietly on the left and right rear wings, pay attention to concealment, and give Huang Taiji a surprise at that time!
Chapter completed!
