MTL - Number of People-Chapter 2634 The bottom of the guizi scroll is drawn from the bottom of the pot, and the outflank is in place
On the eighth day of November, He Renlong led an army of 18,000 troops from Denglai Town to capture Hetuala.
It is a bit exaggerated to say that it is an attack, but it is actually a simple march.
The entire Hetuala is known as the capital of Jianzhou Jurchen. Although Nurhachi has brought most of the Jianzhou nobles to station in Shenyang, it is still the capital of Dajin in name, but the defenders here have been drawn by Hu Erhan to only two people. More than a thousand people.
Facing the incoming Zhou army, there was hardly any psychological preparation. After a period of not fierce resistance, the Jianzhou army of more than 2,000 people was defeated and wiped out.
He Renlong also found it very boring. He originally thought that he could gain a lot in Hetuala, but there were only more than 2,000 Jianzhou troops here, and they couldn't be called elites. Hundreds, the vast majority were captured.
And there are not many Jianzhou Jurchen left behind in Hetuala, only a few thousand people, most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled, and most of the real strong have gone to Anlezhou, Tieling and Shenyang.
Before E Yidu and Daishan captured Hetuala in one fell swoop, although the acquisition was a little lackluster, but anyway, this is also the capital of Jianzhou, this credit cannot be lost, He Renlong still feels comforted.
However, He Renlong is definitely not satisfied with this credit. If he wants to be promoted to the commander-in-chief in the future, he has to accumulate a lot. But Daishan and Eyi are both coming here from Yahu Pass, and giving them a head-on blow is the most important thing. great opportunity.
On November 11th, in addition to leaving 3,000 Zhou troops to garrison Hetuala, He Renlong led an army of 15,000 to return west, and blocked Eyidu and Daishan who were about to return east outside Yahu Pass. After the Great War, Mao Chenglu and Chen Jisheng from Dongjiang Town, who were chasing from the west, joined the battle group and attacked back and forth. Both of them were killed in battle, and Daishan was captured.
Nurhachi and He Heli did not receive the news that Hetuala had been captured and that Daishan's Southern Army was defeated in Anle Prefecture.
At this moment, Nurhachi seemed to have aged all of a sudden.
He Heli murmured for a long while with difficulty, and finally said: "Khan, the matter has developed to this point, and we can only accept the reality..."
Nurhachi turned around with difficulty, "What do you want to say?"
"Once Hetuala is lost, we will not be able to go to the south, and Anle Prefecture will definitely not be able to hold on. If we retreat, we will have to retreat to Argan Mountain."
He Heli bitterly said that Argan Mountain is more than 300 miles north of Zhenbei Fort, which can be regarded as the northern border of Jianzhou Jurchen, and borders the original control area of the wild Jurchen. To be honest, He Heli has only been there once. Maybe Nurhachi went there more often in the early years, but it is considered a place in the extreme north. It is estimated that there are no more than a thousand Jianzhou Jurchen living there now, and there are only more than a thousand Jurchen savages.
"A'ergan Mountain?" Pressing one hand on the table, Nurhachi muttered to himself, "How many years have I not been there, maybe ten years? I remember the last time I went there, or The savage Jurchen refused to surrender, and kept harassing us. I just went to take a look at the northern border. Even I thought it was too remote and cold. I didn't expect that I could only go back there now. Isn’t it better? I, Nurhachi, will end up in this situation?”
He Heli was speechless.
At this time, the voice of the guard came from outside the door: "Khan, Fei Yingdong and Hu Erhan have entered the city, and Babeile and the others have also arrived."
Nurhachi and He Heli were refreshed, and Nurhachi waved again and again: "Let them in quickly."
Nurhachi, who has always been wise and courageous, is now a little out of control. Should he stay in Anle Prefecture and wait for changes, or retreat to Argan Mountain?
Standing on the side of Anle State, there is a strong city, logistical support, and population, but once surrounded, I am afraid there is really no way out.
Going to Argan Mountain, Nurhachi believes that it will be difficult for Zhou Jun to go northward into the mountains and grasslands for hundreds of miles, so as long as he retreats to the Argan Mountain area, his safety will be basically safe, but that means that Jianzhou Jurchen may It is really going to be reduced to a small tribe in the mountains, and even the 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers who survived can't support them at all. What do so many warriors rely on to survive?
They all go fishing and hunting to make a living, so what is the difference between them and the savage Jurchens? In this case, someone may soon challenge Jianzhou Jurchen. For example, the Nekhka people in the west may extend their hands here and act as the host for all the mountains, forests and grasslands outside the area controlled by Dazhou. overlord.
He Heli couldn't make up his mind either, but fortunately Hu Erhan, Fei Yingdong, and Huang Taiji all came, and they finally gathered some people to discuss the future fate of Jianzhou Jurchens.
It was already November 15th when Feng Ziying entered Shenyang City.
Shenyang City was casually abandoned by Jianzhou Jurchen.
Most of the Jurchens in Jianzhou took advantage of the chaos and ran northward. Whether they were remnant soldiers or ordinary Jianzhou Jurchen herdsmen, they all ran northward in one go. What happened to the Han people stayed in the city and the suburbs of Shenyang.
The Han people never expected that less than two years had passed since the people of the Great Zhou became the subjects of Jianzhou, and that the Great Zhou would fight back again, and it was so unexpected that they fought back in a crushing manner.
The few remaining Jurchens are the Haixi Jurchen tribes that were originally conquered by the Jianzhou Jurchens, such as the Hada tribe and the Ula tribe.
Some are the Jurchen who were too deeply influenced by the Han people and Sinicized, and some Mongols who migrated from the grasslands of Eastern Mongolia.
They are used to this kind of sedentary life. They rely on farming in the suburbs and work as cobblers, carpenters, blacksmiths and other service industries in the city.
After a cursory look, Feng Ziying found that Shenyang City had not changed much. It was not much different from when Liaodong Town was in control, but the population was much smaller.
The impact of the war inevitably affected the development of the city. In the early days when Liaodong lost Shenyang, many people retreated to Liaoyang, and the Jurchens entered instead. After coming and going, the population may only be equivalent to one-third of the original control of Liaodong.
The front-line army is still gathering and pursuing, and the various Jianzhou troops are still fleeing frantically.
At this time, Liu Dongyang gave full play to his mad dog-like biting end, fixed his eyes on the main force of Nurhachi and He Heli, and did not let go. Has been pursued to the foot of Tieling Acropolis.
It is said that Nurhachi has already evacuated Tieling Acropolis, but Jianzhou Jurchen is going to fight a battle in Tieling Acropolis, which is exactly what Liu Dongyang wanted.
The biggest goal of Liaodong now is to kill and eliminate the Jianzhou Jurchen's vital forces as much as possible. As long as they are willing to fight and don't run away all the way, Liu Dongyang is happy to see the success.
Sitting down in the mansion of the commander of the guard, Feng Ziying didn't have much thought to inspect the situation in the city.
It's this time. No one who is so ignorant of the current affairs will still resist at this time. After the chaos, calm gradually returns. Although it is still in the period of military control, the situation in the city has stabilized.
"Ziying, I heard that Sajiala has surrendered?" Qingyue's voice came in with the rush of leather boots, and there was no one who could come in like this without notification, except Busia Mara.
"He was captured first, and he was a little rebellious. Later, he was taken to the Zhou army's camp to take a good look at our firearms and logistics supplies, and he was completely convinced and surrendered." Feng Ziying smiled, "This guy is an honest man. People, let’s just say that Dazhou has such rich materials, even if you buy them with these things, you can buy them all. You Shilu asked him who he bought them from, and he said that he could buy them from anyone Like Donghai Jurchen, Xianghaixi Jurchen, it’s really not good, just like the Mongols on the grassland, no one can resist this temptation, just the tens of thousands of catties of iron can make people crazy,..."
Feng Ziying repeated You Shilu's words with a smile on her lips.
Busia Mara, who was dressed in military uniform, brought Zhe Zhe, who was also in armor, with a heroic appearance, and it was impossible to tell that she was the mother of two children.
A pair of sword-shaped eyebrows are drawn into the temples, and the big eyes like a deep pool are shining brightly. Well, a pair of polished copper breastplates on the chest are like a pair of large bowls. Because there is no outer coat, it looks full and huge.
Well, this is a bit like a breastfeeding woman, but Busia Mara has passed the lactation period a long time ago, but this pair of **** has remained, and it is even more majestic and terrifying, even playing chess. Shame on me.
Zhe Zhe at the side looked much more delicate, he also wore a well-fitting leather armor and a bearskin hat, with a sapphire inlaid in the center of the hat, with a bit of charm in his heroism, the smile on the corner of his mouth never disappeared, A pair of mandarin duck male and female daggers are stuck in the waist.
Busia Mara's eyes were dark, and she said thoughtfully: "You used this trick to subdue Sajiala? The performance of the number one warrior of the Jurchen in the East China Sea is so unbearable? Just a few supplies made him fall to the ground?"
"Busia Mara, what you said is a bit deceitful. Don't you know that the Donghai Jurchen is poor and cramped? Besides, how much better are your Haixi Jurchen than the Donghai Jurchen? If it weren't for you and the Han people in the past few years There are more and more exchanges, and the trade between the two sides continues to grow, I'm afraid you don't dare to say Yan Yan here, do you?"
Feng Ziying glanced at Busia Mara, and felt that Busia Mara was a little flustered, "Besides, I think Sajia is aware of current affairs, and knows that Jianzhou is about to be destroyed, so why should he drag the entire Donghai Jurchen tribe to I'm afraid that Nurhachi's personality is not so great, right? Besides, if you follow Dazhou, will Dazhou treat them badly? Isn't your Yehe tribe the best example?"
