"Damn Yuan Dazui, he died very quickly, otherwise I would have forced you to walk away without food." Xiong Tingbi banged his fist on the table and shouted angrily, not letting up at all because the other party was dead.

He was really angry. Yuan Yingtai was such an idiot. He had told him countless times not to let the Mongols outside the city in. Don't let them in. Let them starve to death outside. He just refused to listen. It's better now. As a result, Shenyang fell, and the entire army of 60,000 to 70,000 defenders was annihilated.

The square solid wood table was hammered loudly by Xiong Tingbi. He couldn't help but vent his anger. It took a long time before he calmed down.

"Put on my armor and inspect the military camp." Xiong Tingbi ordered in a cold voice. The servant next to him was too frightened to come over and immediately stepped forward to put on the armor for Mr. Manager.

After dressing up, Xiong Tingbi went to the military camp for inspection. It was already March 15th, three days had passed since Shenyang was attacked on March 12th, and the news of Shenyang's fall had already spread.

The entire military camp was filled with the sound of sharpening knives, and the morale of the officers and soldiers was very high. Especially after Xiong Tingbi came to inspect, the soldiers asked for battle one after another. He was very pleased to see this scene.

After the Battle of Saarhu, Liaodong's elites were all depleted. The current situation of strong troops and horses was all the result of the training of Liaodong Manager Xiong. After coming out of the military camp, Xiong Tingbi was obviously in a much better mood. The son is here, Ruona Nu If Erhachi dares to attack, he will never come back.

After walking around the city, he went up to the top of the city again. Standing at the top of the city, he looked at the dark frozen soil outside, and was very lost in thought, as if he could see Shenyang in this way. At this time, the city gate of Liaoyang City was not there. It was not closed tightly, but opened wide, constantly collecting the defeated soldiers who retreated from the front line and the fleeing people.

Currently in Liaodong, the Ming Dynasty only has two major cities left, Liaoyang and Shenyang. Now that Shenyang has fallen, only one city, Liaoyang, is left. If this city is lost again, the Ming Dynasty will have no danger of defending in Liaodong.

Therefore, the safety of Liaoyang is extremely important and affects the entire war situation in Liaodong. If it exists, the situation can still be saved. If it does not exist, the situation will be completely defeated and collapse in an instant.

At this time, a quarrel was breaking out in Shenyang City.

In the large tent of the Chinese army where Nuerhachi was sitting, several big Baylors kept talking about their opinions.

"Fight, we must fight. Liaoyang is the center of the entire Liaodong. How much wealth there is there!" Amin shouted loudly with gleaming eyes. He was filled with supplies after conquering Shenyang. It was precisely because of this. In this way, the Jurchens did not march immediately after the fall of Shenyang, but stayed for three days as planned.

"I also think we can fight." Dai Shan pointed at the map, "If Shenyang is lost, the Ming Dynasty will only have one lonely city in Liaodong. If Liaoyang is captured, the Ming Dynasty will have no city to defend. By then, Liaodong will be huge, and I will be able to conquer it."

Daishan made a series of gestures and explained the whole situation clearly. Several of the people present here are veterans and have never stopped fighting since the beginning of the army. They have rich experience and naturally understand the current situation. The only remaining members of the Ming Dynasty are If Liaoyang could be captured in one go...

Thinking about this situation, several people in the military tent suddenly became short of breath. Mang Gurtai also shouted to Nuerhachi with red eyes, "Great Khan, we must capture Liaoyang, and I am willing to be the vanguard."

Among the four Baylors, only Huang Taiji had not yet spoken. He looked at the map and kept thinking about the Ming Dynasty's information in his mind. After a while, he slowly said, "Great Khan, I think the offensive should be postponed on this matter. Transport the population and food of Shenyang back to survive the spring famine, recuperate, and fight again when there is an opportunity."

It should be said that Huang Taiji's words are still very sensible. Once you have gained something, you will go home to recuperate and gather your strength to fight again, instead of being like a gambler and continuing in the hope of winning more.

However, the few people working on it were so fascinated by the harvest in Shenyang that they couldn't see anything else at all.

"Fourth, if you're scared, don't go. Just a few of us can go. The Nanbarbarians are so weak. If you have more, you won't have more, and if you have less, you won't have more." This was Amin.

"Yes, yes, just a few of us can go, and you can just stay in Shenyang." This is Mang Gurtu.

"Great Khan, come to Liaoyang. The Ming Dynasty will have no city to defend. By then the entire Liaodong will be ours. The Great Khan will be able to found the country and proclaim himself emperor." This was Daishan. He looked excited and his eyes were shining.

The shouts of several people instantly plunged the big tent into a fanatical atmosphere. It was obvious that Nuerhachi, who had been silent until now, was also affected. He raised his hand, suppressed all the quarrels, and then fell silent. He said in a loud voice, "I have decided to send troops to Liaoyang."

boom!

The Jurchens' iron hooves stamped loudly, and under the leadership of Nuerhachi, the rolling torrent headed towards Liaoyang.

Liaoyang is not very far from Shenyang. If you go fast, you can get there in half a day. Standing at the top of the city, Xiong Tingbi looked at the torrent on the horizon with a solemn expression, and the roar came from there.

"The Tatars are coming!"

Within three days, he didn't just watch. The troops stationed in various garrison castles had been drawn away by him and gathered in Liaoyang. Xiong Tingbi also saw the current situation. Once Liaoyang was lost, the situation collapsed. The top priority was to defend Liaoyang City. , you can get it back after losing it elsewhere.

Turning back, he looked at the 50,000 to 60,000 soldiers and horses and the large number of soldiers and civilians in the city. These people gave Xiong Tingbi immense confidence, "Nu'er Hachi, this time you will never come back."

boom!

The red-coated cannon at the top of the city fired, huge shells shot out, plowing open several bloodstains, and the Battle of Liaoyang broke out. At the same time, several fast horses left from the back door and rushed to the capital.

"wait?"

Several people looked at Sun Chengzong with confusion in their eyes.

"Yes, the situation in Liaodong is unclear now, so it is not appropriate to make a hasty decision. We will make a final decision after more detailed military reports are available. However, His Majesty made preparations that morning and sent troops to support at any time to clean up the mess." Sun Chengzong explained.

"Then let's do this for now. Everyone prepare supplies, assemble the army and prepare for war, and wait for more detailed news." Zhu Youxiao ordered.

Three days later, Babaili rushed to bring a more detailed military report, and Zhu Youxiao once again convened the cabinet bachelors for discussion. In fact, if the Metropolitan Governor's Office was to be perfected, it would be more appropriate to have the Metropolitan Governor's Office as the main one, but now the organization is unknown, so only That's it for now.

Before the five cabinet bachelors arrived, Zhu Youxiao was not idle either. Instead, he stared at the military map attentively. Shenyang fell, and the only major Ming army stronghold in Liaodong was Liaoyang. If Liaoyang If it fails, the Ming army will be defeated all the way and give up the entire northeastern plain.

This is extremely unfavorable strategically.

Judging from the map, the terrain of the entire Northeast is very interesting. The Greater Khingan Range, Lesser Khingan Range and Changbai Mountain surround the entire Northeast Plain (Songnen Plain, Liaohe Plain) on the northwest and east sides. The south is the sea. The entire Northeast is only on the southwest. There is a long and flat strip connecting the capital of North China to the entire Northeast.

This is the famous Liaoxi Corridor. The bottom of the Liaoxi Corridor is the first pass in the world, Shanhaiguan. If the Jurchens want to enter the pass from here, it is almost impossible.
