Chapter 631: Sealing the Wolf Juxu (5)
When Sheng Kunshan received a notice of Zhang Fengyi's acceleration of advance, the heavy cavalry and the First Chef and Bu Army of the Cavalry Corps had just arrived in Hasuhai, which was more than 200 miles away from Lucheng.
After occupying Sanniangzi City, Shengkunshan ordered the army to rest for more than ten days before he ordered the Zuoyi army to station in Sanniangzi City, and the Second Army of Chebu and Bu attacked from all sides to eliminate the hidden dangers around him.
At the same time, Sheng Kunshan personally led the Chongqi and the First Chef and Bu army to march westward, and it was only thirty miles in one day, and it seemed that it was not enterprising.
Even after receiving Zhang Fengyi's emergency military information, Sheng Kunshan still did his own thing and slowly squeezed Tumot's right side step by step, without any rush.
As a trusted friendly general of the Jingzhou Army, Zuo Yi was naturally well aware of Zhang Fengyi's predicament. Seeing that Sheng Kunshan was still on the verge of patrol, he was anxious and led his personal guards to run wildly to catch up with Sheng Kunshan, expressing his worries.
Unexpectedly, Sheng Kunshan was calm and calm, and he directly gave a judgment on the Wuwei Army: The Wuwei Army was not dangerous, and there was no danger whether it was a stagnant or a hurry to capture Lucheng.
When Zuo Xie heard this, he was very anxious and said, "More than 20,000 troops, and the food and grass are not allowed to continue. This is a disaster of overturning!"
Sheng Kunshan smiled and said, "After Zheng Jiadong's troops and the reserve team escorted the baggage to the Wuwei Army, the army's baggage can last at least half a month! With the Wuwei Army's attack ability, half a month of effort is enough to capture Lucheng. From the momentum, General Zhang is far from the end of the road, otherwise he would have sent heavy cavalry to cover the food road."
When Zuo Yi heard the three words "heavy cavalry", he suddenly realized and felt extremely regretful: Why didn't he notice that Zhang Fengyi had not used heavy cavalry yet?
The Martial Guard Army was organized with a heavy cavalry army with a total of more than 6,000 troops and more than 15,000 war horses. The elite level was no less than the heavy cavalry army in the Hussar Legion. With such an elite heavy cavalry army, even if the Mongols sent tens of thousands of light cavalry to come, how could they dare to fight against the heavy cavalry army?
There are heavy cavalry to protect the grain road, and the grain road can be safe.
What's more, there are two mobile and flexible cavalry soldiers in the Martial Guard Corps. Once the Mongols send tens of thousands of cavalry to come, with Zhang Fengyi's ability, they may immediately carry out encirclement and suppression, and eat the Mongols without even leaving any residue.
Zuo Yi sighed with a long sigh and said, "In the face of absolute strength, all harassment is a joke, and it is not worth worrying. The last general has never surpassed five thousand soldiers, and they are all infantrymen. I didn't expect this festival for a while."
Sheng Kunshan laughed and said, "General Zuo is so modest!"
Immediately, Sheng Kunshan shouted to his left and right again: "Put the map!"
The map was placed on the left and right, and when he looked closely, he found that this map was different from the combat map. At best, it could only be regarded as a schematic diagram, covering the entire Western Regions and the northern grasslands.
Sheng Kunshan pointed to the map and said, "Please look at General Left. Liaodong is not to mention that the Manchu Tatars were strong enemies, so they are naturally the focus of our attention. To the north of the Mongolian Plateau, Khalkha Mongol, west of the Mongolian Plateau, the various tribes of the Mongolian Weitra, among which the Junggar Mongolia is the most powerful; to the west of Junggar, the Kazakh Khanate; to the south of Junggar, the Yarkand Khanate; to the north of Junggar, the Russian Tsar State! According to Jiangling Hou, in the future, the Han people will expand westward, and the Russian Tsar State will be our strongest enemy!"
When Zuo Yi saw the territory of Russia, he was shocked. The Russian Tsar Kingdom was extremely large and extended to the west, bordering Sweden. Zuo Yi had heard of it for a long time that the Marquis of Jiangling sent an envoy to Sweden from the sea and returned to the Ming Dynasty only two years later!
Zuo Yi couldn't speak, and heard Sheng Kunshan laugh and said, "Such a vast area is suitable for a real man to make achievements. With the ability of General Zuo, he will lead tens of thousands of elite soldiers to gallop across the board and make decisions in the face of the battle. What's the difficulty? Is General Zuo interested?"
Zuo Yi did not accept Sheng Kunshan's words, and was silent for a while, asking, "Since the general's ambition is so high, why are he not in a hurry to capture Lucheng?"
Sheng Kunshan slapped the north of Xuanfu with a palm and said, "Nothing else, just wait for the Qing Tartars to send troops!"
"Tartars sent troops?"
Zuo Yi was shocked. He really couldn't understand what the hell was about to capture Lucheng and wait for the Tartars to send troops.
"Please look at General Zuo..." Sheng Kunshan pointed at Sanniangzi City with his index finger, and continued: "If thousands of cavalry stationed in Sanniangzi City, will the Xuanda line be as safe as Mount Tai?"
Zuo Yixiu said that it was true. Once the Qing Tartars plundered the Xuanda front line again and set out from Sanniangzi City, it was extremely convenient whether it attacked the Qing Tartars' retreat or attacked the Qing Tartars on the side.
In other words, the stationing of thousands of cavalry in Sanniangzi City is more effective than stationing tens of thousands of soldiers on the front line of Xuanda!
"The Qing Dynasty's Tartars could not be self-sufficient in food. During the Xuanda period, General Sun completely cut off the possibility of the Tartars obtaining food through trade. Now, our troops stationed in Sanniangzi City, and completely cut off the possibility of the Tartars obtaining food through looting. Our general estimated that the Tartars could not remain indifferent, and it is very likely that we would make some tricks while we were unstable in Sanniangzi City!"
Zuo Yi thought for a moment and asked, "Is it possible that the general in charge that the three generals were instigated to go out of the border wall and provoked the attack on Lucheng, all in order to lure the Tatars to attack, and then attack the Tatars' rear route and completely cut off the connection between the Tatars and Mongolia in the south of the desert?"
Sheng Kunshan smiled and said, "That's right! But, between the real and the real, who can predict the future? If the Tartars do not come, they will become real, and then take some time to operate Sanniangzi City and Lucheng into the advance bases for the Han people."
Sheng Kunshan refocused his attention on Liaodong and continued: "For generals, we have to look at the general's generals. The Tartars established grammar, and any idea of destroying the Tartars in the short term is not enough, and they must suffer a big loss. Jiangling Hou currently focuses on Liaodong. The first step is to cut off the connection between the Qing Dynasty and the Mongolian in the desert. The second step is to manage North Korea and completely break away from the shackles of the Tartars. Therefore, everything we are doing now is still on the Tartars. Any military action must revolve around this overall situation."
Did Zuo Yi ever think of such a far-reaching question? Sheng Kunshan's words were like taking him to a new world, making him intoxicated.
However, Zuo Yi was a general carefully selected by Sun Chuanting. His life experience was no less than Shengkun Mountain. After a moment of excitement, he calmed down and said with a hint of uncertainty: "The army leaving Sanniangzi City is probably the last choice for the Marquis of Jiangling. To cut off the connection between the Tartars and the Mongolian in the south of the desert, the best place to send troops is Xuanfu; at the same time, to completely wipe out the Tartars, the best place to advance is Shanhaiguan!"
Sheng Kunshan smiled bitterly and said, "It's not..."
Sheng Kunshan was about to go down, but was interrupted by emergency military information: Huang Taiji ordered Dorgon to lead more than 2,000 heavy cavalry to cooperate with Korqin, Wuqiyete tribe, Zalayier and other troops, and the troops headed straight to Ulanqab, and there was a faint momentum to plunder Xuanda in the south!
Zuo Yi sighed and said, "The timing of the Tartars' troops was really blocked. If nothing unexpected happens, the last general and General Zheng were transferred back to the front line of Xuanda, and they were unable to cooperate with the general to fight together with the general!"
"What's so strange about the Tartars who recognize the thief as their father?" Sheng Kunshan snorted a few times, and then said: "As for Dorgon, I guess he will stay in Ulanqab, and will not go further and fight a political battle with us!"
"The last general also thinks so, but does the court dare to bet on Xuanda's defense line? Moreover, joining the joint military agreement, the court..." Zuo Yi shook his head and said, "Oh... it's better not to say it..."
Zuo Yi's face was full of bleakness, and he hurriedly said goodbye to Shengkun Mountain and returned to Sanniangzi City to wait for Wang Jimo's military order.
As expected, when Wang Jimo learned that Dorgon had the possibility of robbing the Xuanda front line, he ordered Yang Guozhu, Wang Pu and the third general of Xu Dingguo to lead troops back to the border wall as if he was crazy.
After receiving Wang Jimo's order, the third general had no time to say hello to Sheng Kunshan. As if his butt was on fire, he quickly retracted back to the side wall and threw the Cavalry Legion and the Left Army into the vast grassland.
Following the Jingzhou army to continue to advance, it was nothing more than getting some armor. However, if you disobey Wang Jimo's military orders, it would be a disaster for the loss of your head. The Third General still figured out this account.
As for Zuo Yi and Zheng Jiadong, Wang Jimo was worried that the sudden recall of the two would cause the Jingzhou army to collapse. He immediately wrote to the court, asking the court to decide and kicked the ball to Yang Sichang's feet.
From this perspective, the smart Huang Taiji only sent more than 2,000 heavy cavalry to zero in on the efforts of Huang Bo and Sheng Kunshan Tong and Xuanda defense line, achieving significant success.
As for Yang Sichang, he was in trouble and was unable to introduce a strategy to deal with it for a while.
"George, Lin Chunhong has deliberately created a joint agreement for the military. The intention is self-evident! How could the court give up the dominance of the Xuanda front line? His subordinates believe that the Tartars' troops to Ulanqab is an opportunity that is rare in the ages. It is better to ask Zheng Jiadong and Zuoyi's troops to return to Xuanda front line quickly. Shengkun Mountain suddenly lost more than 10,000 soldiers, and it is very likely that they will lead their troops back to Shuozhou. In this way, Lin Chunhong was useless to spend money and grain, and he was futile to get nothing."
Seeing that Yang Sichang was difficult to make up, Li Shaoyi rushed to advise him. Li Shaoyi's words did not strengthen Yang Sichang's determination, but instead made Yang Sichang even more entangled and his eyebrows frowned even more.
"Gei..."
Yang Sichang waved his hand to interrupt Li Shaoyi and said slowly: "In this way, wouldn't the court work closely with the Qing Tartars, which led to the failure of the Jingzhou army's entry into the grassland?"
"This..." Li Shaoyi seemed stupid, his mouth was so wide that he couldn't speak a word. Yang Sichang's words were obviously the truth. Although the court had no intention of cooperating with the Tatars to form the Jingzhou army, he was objectively united and regarded the Jingzhou army as a common enemy.
Yang Sichang continued: "Although Dorgon led more than 10,000 people, as long as Shengkun Mountain placed thousands of elite cavalry in Sanniangzi City, Dorgon would never dare to move forward. The side wall seemed dangerous, but in fact it was as stable as Mount Tai. Since the founding of the ancestors, the advantages of the Central Plains over the grassland have never been as obvious as they are now..."
Yang Sichang stopped talking, as if he was sorting out his own ideas. After a moment, he resolutely said: "No matter what, all this was achieved by tens of thousands of soldiers of the Jingzhou army with one blow. Zuo Zhi, Zheng Jiadong's troops must not be withdrawn. We cannot do such things that harm others and are not beneficial to oneself! We cannot control Lin Chunhong. In history books, at most we can scold us for being incompetent. If we ask Zheng Jiadong and Zuo Zhi to withdraw our troops, the history books will scold us as Qin Hui! This is a shame to insult our ancestors!"
Li Shaoyi was extremely worried and said anxiously: "The Master of the Pavilion is a responsible person, but the court officials are in trouble. How can I convince him? How can the Master of the Pavilion be with the emperor?"
