Chapter 836 As timid as a mouse

Another eight-hundred-mile rush broke the silence of Shenyang City, but this time, there were fewer suspicious people. After all, nothing happened after the eight-hundred-mile urgent messenger arrived last time. Thinking about it, the Qing army was still very powerful, but it just lacked food, so it would be easy to get bad news every time.

Huang Taiji was also very calm, because he knew what the eight hundred miles urgent matter was about. After hearing about it, it turned out to be Guan Ningjun's matter.

The news was verified and Guan Ning's army had arrived at Daheishan with food. Huang Taiji threw the memorial to Fan Wencheng and asked with a smile: "How is it? Does Fan Qing still have doubts now?"

In this memorial, the strength of the Ming army was reported in detail, and a lot of food was confirmed.

Fan Wencheng picked up the memorial and read it carefully. Only after reading it could he answer Huang Taiji's words.

Huang Taiji smiled, as if he had been constipated for many days, and suddenly took it out at this moment, feeling so happy and excited. It is rare for this kind of situation to happen to the cunning and cunning Huang Taiji. This shows that he really needs a victory.

"Cao Wenzhao leads about 4,000 cavalry, which is probably all the cavalry in Guan Ning's army. Sun Lao'er is willing to risk it all. He probably transferred He Kegang's cavalry to Cao Wenzhao. "Huang Taiji guessed to himself, "With so many artillery, Guan Ning's army really worked hard to win, haha..."

For some reason, Huang Taiji couldn't help but feel very good, thinking that Guan Ning's army wanted a victory as much as he did, and worked so hard, but the final result could only be the defeat of Guan Ning's army and the victory of the Qing Dynasty. Everyone laughed out loud.

After reading it, Fan Wencheng put away the memorial. At the same time, he frowned slightly and asked: "Your Majesty, why is the place where the food is delivered to Dahei Mountain chosen? Logically speaking, these two Mongolian tribes want to transfer the food to us. Daqing, then Daheishan is not a suitable location, right?"

This Dahei Mountain is roughly parallel to Liaoyang. Relatively speaking, the distance to Jinzhou is much closer than the distance to Shenyang. In terms of the distribution of military power in the Qing Dynasty, it was closer to Haizhou. The most critical thing is that the pastures of the two Mongolian tribes are a bit far away from Daheishan. From a common sense point of view, the transfer of food can be done on a certain grassland.

When Huang Taiji heard Fan Wencheng's question, his smile did not change, and he immediately replied: "What's so strange about this? Daheishan is a bit far away from the actual military strength of the Qing Dynasty, but it is close to Jinzhou. Fan Qing believes it or not, Guan Ning The army and the Qing Dynasty have been fighting for many years, and they have long been afraid of the Qing Dynasty! They may have hidden their thoughts and immediately fled back to Jinzhou when they realized something was wrong. Otherwise, they would not have mobilized for this ambush. All cavalry goes into battle, not infantry!"

After hearing this, Fan Wencheng thought about it carefully, and it seemed to make sense. For a long time, the Qing Dynasty defeated Guan Ning's army and could only defend the city. If the Dongjiang Army hadn't won several battles with the Ming Army in Gaizhou, Guan Ning's army probably wouldn't have had the guts to go out of the city to fight the Qing Dynasty. Regarding this, Huang Taiji was confident, and so was Fan Wencheng.

Thinking this way, he had no doubts. Therefore, Huang Taiji immediately summoned several generals who were close to him and began to study tactics for the Battle of Daheishan. Daishan, Yue Tuo, Azige and others were all overjoyed to learn about the situation, and they also discussed the tactics of battle enthusiastically.

Finally, in the Chongzheng Hall in Shenyang, there was a rare scene of lively discussion with excitement and joy in recent times.

According to the situation reported by the Mongols, it is not very easy to annihilate Cao Wenzhao's troops. The main difficulty is that the terrain of Daheishan is indeed conducive to Guan Ning's army. For this reason, Huang Tai took great pains to find Han slaves who were familiar with the Dahei Mountains, and finally got what they wanted through coercion and inducement.

To the north of the Daheishan Mountains, there is a relatively flat road that extends to the grassland. In other words, from here you can bypass the valley and go up the mountain from the grassland in the distance. Therefore, Huang Taiji finally decided: "Cao Wenzhao's cavalry is the mobile force of Guan Ning's army. As long as this cavalry is annihilated, Guan Ning's army will only have infantry, and it will have nothing to do with our Qing Dynasty." Threat! Therefore, I have made up my mind to annihilate this cavalry army and prevent the cavalry from escaping back to Jinzhou!"

The Jianlu leaders and traitors listened to him quietly and announced the final result.

At this point, Huang Taiji began to point out the general: "Ajige led the army to attack from the front of the valley, pretending to go to collect food. Remember, the terrain of the valley ignores our army, so only a small number of troops can go in each time."

Although Azig has the same father and mother as Dorgon and Duduo, he has not dealt with those two people since he was a child and has always clung to Huang Taiji's lap. Therefore, despite Changli's disastrous defeat, one year has passed. Huang Taiji was mentioned to a position of real power again, holding military power in his hands.

After Azig received the order, Huang Taiji looked at Yue Tuo and said: "You lead the army and go around the grassland. The troops are divided into two parts. One part will directly attack the top of Daheishan Mountain, and the other part will take more detours. Be sure to intercept them." Stay in the retreat route of Guan Ning’s army and don’t let even one of Guan Ning’s cavalry go!”

If we go around and cut off the Ming army's retreat, it will take a long time. It will probably take an extra day. After all, there are mountains over there. However, in order to annihilate Guan Ning's cavalry, no matter how many detours are taken, it is still worth it.

After the battle plan was all arranged, several Jianlu leaders were very interested. They knew that Huang Taiji entrusted them with this basically inevitable war because they were his confidants. This incident proves that only by hugging Huang Taiji's thigh tightly can you reap the good fruits. Haha, more than 6,000 troops were dispatched at one time. This is also a rare large-scale dispatch by the Qing Dynasty recently. The troops are more than Guan Ning's army. As long as there is a fight, Guan Ning's army will never come back!

But before they could set out, another urgent messenger from 800 miles away arrived in Shenyang. It was said that Cao Wenzhao was waiting, so he became a little suspicious, and he was a little rude to the two Mongolian chiefs, and he began to doubt. He also said that he would wait for three more days. If he did not see the Qing army going to transport food after three days, he had reason to suspect that someone from the two tribes had leaked the news. For the sake of safety, he could not wait any longer and had to withdraw. .

When Huang Taiji heard this situation, he estimated the time in his mind and suddenly became a little anxious. While scolding Cao Wenzhao for being as timid as a mouse, he immediately reconvened his men to discuss the latest military situation. Together, they found that if they wanted to take a detour to intercept Guan Ning's army's retreat, it would be too late.
