Chapter 47 Qi Family Army

At the top of Shenyang City, Xiong Tingbi looked at Nurhachi's army walking slowly outside the city, the expression on his face did not change at all.

"The commander-in-chief is indeed a master of calculation." Li Guangrong, who was standing next to Xiong Tingbi, said quickly, with a look of admiration on his face, and of course he was also suspected of flattering.

However, Li Guangrong also has real admiration for Xiong Tingbi.

As expected, the Jurchens let the Mongols clear the way. The Mongols walked in the front, and were suppressed by the Jurchens behind. Obviously the Jurchens wanted to use these Mongols as cannon fodder to attack the city.

"Let the sons be careful and hold on." Xiong Tingbi looked at Li Guangrong and said, "The Jurchens can't hold on for long."

"Yes, I will go right away." Li Guangrong agreed, turned around and went to call for people to defend the city.

On top of the city in Shenyang, the Ming garrison looked at the Jurchen army outside. Some of the timid soldiers were already showing signs of timidity.

Since the Saarhu period, the Ming army has no psychological advantage when facing the Jurchens. Everyone knows that the Jurchens are difficult to fight, cannot win, and often die in battle.

Under such circumstances, Liaodong soldiers were generally afraid of fighting, and the commanders gave random instructions, so the fighting spirit of Liaodong soldiers was not strong.

But this time it was much better. Because they relied on the city and did not have to go down to confront the Jurchens face to face, this gave the soldiers some support in their hearts.

The Jurchens camped outside the city, only five miles away from the city wall. It seemed that they were not preparing to attack the city, and looked like they were waiting for the Ming army to fight out.

Xiong Tingbi looked at the Jurchen camp, turned to Li Guangrong and asked: "Can our artillery hit it?"

"We can't beat it." Li Guangrong shook his head directly: "It's too far."

"Then tell the following to ignore it. If the Jurchens provoke, it will be up to them." Xiong Tingbi ordered expressionlessly.

Anyway, Xiong Tingbi has made up his mind that he will never go out this time. He will just defend Shenyang City and come in if you have the guts.

Beijing, Forbidden City.

Zhu Youxiao leaned on the couch and looked at the question book in front of him without even raising his eyelids.

Glancing at Chen Hong, Zhu Youxiao asked expressionlessly: "They are all for impeaching Xiong Tingbi? How do you say that?"

"Back to the emperor, they all said that Xiong Tingbi was timid and timid and afraid of fighting." Chen Hong said quickly, with caution in his tone.

Zhu Youxiao laughed immediately.

Cowardly? Afraid of fighting? Who should I let fight?

The problem in Liaodong is very serious now, and the Liao people are no longer able to use it. In other words, Liaodong is not as resistant to the Jurchens as imagined.

Run away if you fight, surrender if you can't run, or even surrender if you don't fight. This is why the previous life finally developed into dispatching troops from various places to rush to Liaodong.

Even the white-armed soldiers of Qin Liangyu, the chieftain of Shizhu, were transferred there because Liaodong was in trouble, it had been abolished and there was no way to get it.

It is impossible for Zhu Youxiao to listen to the talk of people like the Donglin Party. There are people among them who want to take back Liaodong, such as people from Yuan Yingtai's group.

There are also people who want to kill Xiong Tingbi because of the case of framing Xiong Tingbi that is being interrogated by the Third Law Division. As long as Xiong Tingbi is deposed again, it will be easier for the Third Law Division. Because once Xiong Tingbi is deposed, it means that His Majesty once again I'm tired of Xiong Tingbi.

In addition, there are those who are simply talking heads and want to gain fame and get promoted.

No matter what these people wanted to do, Zhu Youxiao could not ignore them. He waved his hand directly and said: "Take them all and burn them. If there are any question books like this in the future, they will be burned."

Zhu Youxiao's only hope for Liaodong and Xiong Tingbi is to hold on and win time for himself. The rest is not important at all.

Speaking of which, Zhu Youxiao never paid attention to the Jurchens in Liaodong, and the problem of the Ming Dynasty was never a Jurchen problem.

"Your Majesty, there is another question book here." Chen Hong took out a question book with some hesitation and said cautiously.

"Who took it?" Zhu Youxiao asked lazily. He didn't want to read the question book right now.

Chen Hong took a few steps forward and said respectfully: "Qi Jiguang's nephew Qi Jin."

When Chen Hong mentioned this name, he was very cautious.

Qi Jiguang, who is this person? He is an amazing person, and his Qi Jiajun is really famous.

It's just that Emperor Wanli hated Zhang Juzheng, so after Zhang Juzheng's death, Qi Jiguang was also implicated. Qi Jiguang fell, how can Qi Jin recover?

No one knew Jin Shang's attitude towards Qi Jiajun, so Chen Hong was always cautious when mentioning this name.

Qi Jin?

Hearing this name, Zhu Youxiao was immediately excited and jumped up from the couch.

At this moment, Zhu Youxiao wanted to slap himself in the mouth. Why had he forgotten Qi Jin?

This nephew, who has followed Qi Jiguang since childhood, can be said to have learned all about Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou's military training, and is very familiar with Yuanyang Formation and Chaoying.

A few days ago, I was still thinking about finding someone to train my troops. I was also wondering whether to call them Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng. I even thought of Zu Dashou and Hong Chengchou.

How could I have forgotten Qi Jiguang?

Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao said directly: "Quickly, give me the question book! What did Qi Jin say in the question book?"

"Back to the emperor, Qi Jin said in the title book that Liaodong is not at peace and the Jurchens are not subject, so he asked to leave." Chen Hong quickly handed over the title book and said in an urgent tone.

When Zhu Youxiao heard Chen Hong's words, it was like a basin of cold water poured over his head. He thought of Qi Jin and Qi Jiajun in his previous life.

This was the case for Qi Jin in his previous life. He asked himself to leave the customs, and at the age of sixty-seven, he led 3,000 veterans of the Qi family army, left Jizhen, and went straight to Liaodong.

At this time, the Eight Banners Army attacked Shenyang, an important town in Liaodong. At this time, a Ming army was already rushing to Shenyang for reinforcements. This Ming army was the Qi Family Army led by Qi Jin.

Unfortunately, Shenyang was captured in just one day.

Yuan Yingtai not only lost Shenyang, but also cheated Qi Jin.

On the south bank of the Hun River, Qi Jin, in accordance with the military drills left by Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou, directed the soldiers to quickly form the famous vehicle formation of the Ming Army.

A bloody battle is about to begin.

And Nurhachi ordered the Eight Banners to take turns to saturate the attack.

This deadly attack was effective after numerous corpses were abandoned. The Ming army's ammunition was exhausted and the chariot formation was finally broken.

After the Jin army broke into the car formation, the Qi army immediately formed a mandarin duck formation with sentries as units, and started a fierce hand-to-hand fight with the enemy.

But in the end, due to being outnumbered and exhausted, the Qi army continued to fall. After killing more than a dozen enemies, the commander-in-chief Chen Ce also fell in a pool of blood.

This battle was called "the first bloody battle of Liao Zuo's troops" by later generations, and the famous Qi Army disappeared in the long river of history.

"The Ming Dynasty is ashamed of Qi Jiguang! I, the Zhu family, are ashamed of the Qi family army!" Zhu Youxiao reached out and took the memorial presented by Chen Hong, with an extremely serious expression on his face.

Upon hearing this, Chen Hong knelt on the ground directly.
