Nurhaci glanced at his son, looked back at the team behind him, and then shook his head.

This time he brought out all the Eight Banners, a team of more than 50,000 people. If there was a battle with the Ming army, even if all the Ming army in Liaodong were to come out, he would not be afraid. After all, the morale of the two sides was different.

But that is not the case now. This is a siege. If the city is attacked from three sides, it will inevitably be dispersed.

With three sieges and one missing, I could only mobilize 10,000 people for each wall. These 10,000 people were not enough to put pressure on the Ming army in Shenyang City to make them flee.

At the same time, this style of play can easily be overshadowed by the Ming army in the city. You must know that the person in charge in the city is not the idiot Yuan Yingtai, but the barbarian Xiong Tingbi.

"Father, please step back." Daishan looked in front of him and said with a somewhat unsightly expression.

Hearing this, Nurhachi's face was not that ugly, because he did not have such high hopes for these Mongols, and he never thought that relying on the Mongols could break through Shenyang City, because that was unrealistic.

It's just that he didn't expect these Mongolians to retreat so quickly. These Mongolians didn't rush to the city at all, they just crossed the ditch and retreated.

However, Nurhachi also saw that the Ming army on the top of the city was indeed very tightly defended, and the archers and artillery fired volleys without stopping.

If you want to rush up, you will have to cross these trenches. Even if you really rush over, the loss will not be small, not to mention that there are many resisting horses placed under the city wall.

The purpose of resisting horses placed under the city was naturally not to stop his own cavalry, but to slow down his own attack speed.

After crossing the ditch, you have to move away the horses; if you don't move away the horses, you won't be able to cross; if you move away the horses, the arrows on the wall will rain down as if they cost nothing.

Those three rows of resisting horses are like a roadblock. If you want to rush past, you can only risk your life.

Nurhaci finally saw that Xiong Tingbi just wanted to risk his life.

Nurhaci is not stupid either.

Attack Shenyang City with your life?

You can't do this!

After pondering for a moment, Nurhachi said directly to Daishan beside him: "You take the people away, pretend to attack Liaoyang, and then come back after a circle. Once the Ming army leaves the city, we will attack; if they do not leave the city, then we will retreat." Already."

"Yes, Father Khan." Dai Shan agreed, turned around and ordered all the troops to attack Liaoyang.

On the top of the city, Xiong Tingbi looked at the situation on the Jurchen side, but the expression on his face did not change at all, he just watched quietly.

Li Guangrong, who was standing next to Xiong Tingbi, had a little excitement on his face, and said to Xiong Tingbi beside him: "Commander, they are going to divide their troops to attack Liaoyang! Seeing that there are only 20,000 slaves left in the city, why don't we do it tonight? Attack the camp? In this way, we will definitely be able to defeat the enemy in one battle."

Glancing at Li Guangrong, Xiong Tingbi shook his head. He didn't believe that Jiannu would really divide his troops to attack Liaoyang.

Even if they really divide their forces to attack Liaoyang, there won't be enough people. So they go out of the city to attack the camp? Maybe they fall into the trap of establishing slaves.

From the beginning to the end, Xiong Tingbi felt that Liaodong could not be fought, but could only be defended, let alone destroying the Jurchens. With the current military strength of Ming Dynasty, Liaodong simply could not do it!

Now that Your Majesty has asked me to defend Shenyang and Liaoyang, I will defend them to the death.

I just hope that there will be no more mishaps in the capital and that the Donglin Party will not cause anything!

Thinking of this, Xiong Tingbi couldn't help but look in the direction of the capital. Don't let anything happen, otherwise it will really be over.

What is the situation in Beijing at this time?

The papers for impeachment of Xiong Tingbi were once again filled with Zhu Youxiao's Long Book Case.

"Burn them all." Zhu Youxiao said expressionlessly. He didn't even bother to read them now. Reading these question books was a waste of time.

With Yuan Yingtai's arrival in Beijing, the impeachment of Xiong Tingbi once again reached its peak. The content of this impeachment was basically that Xiong Tingbi was cowardly.

Zhu Youxiao didn't even bother to listen to what they said. Saarhu was defeated, so what else could he say? It goes without saying how weak the Ming Dynasty's military strength in Liaodong is now.

If Xiong Tingbi can hold on, it is a great achievement. As long as Shenyang and Liaoyang are still there, the Jurchens will not be able to grow bigger, and they will not dare to go west to regain the Mongolian tribes with confidence. In this way, they will not be able to grow and can only make trouble in Liaodong. .

Once they go west, Liaoyang and Shenyang can send troops to regain Tieling Kaiyuan, or even attack Nurhachi's home base, Fushun.

In this way, Nurhachi could only return reinforcements, but he did not dare to go out to fight. Just like Mao Wenlong's containment, the containment effect of Shenyang and Liaoyang was much greater than that of Dongjiang Town.

Without the ability to annex the Jurchen tribes in Mongolia, Nurhaci would not be able to grow stronger and would have to live there. I would be able to deal with him in a few years.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Hong agreed, and then motioned to the young eunuch to move all the question books away.

Putting down the wooden carving in his hand, Zhu Youxiao nodded with satisfaction.

This wooden sculpture Zhu Youxiao carved is not a human figure, but an Italian cannon.

Of course, the Italian cannon here refers to something, which is the Italian cannon in "Bright Sword". Although it is called an Italian cannon, it is a French 1897-style 75mm field cannon.

This is an artillery piece developed in France in 1897. Since this is the world's first artillery piece equipped with an anti-recoil device, the rate of fire of the artillery piece is as high as 15 rounds per minute, far exceeding other artillery pieces of the same era. Therefore, during the First World War It shined brightly in the war, with production and sales reaching more than 20,000 units.

According to historical records, Italy imported a batch of such artillery from France during World War I. The second-hand goods that were eliminated at the end of the war were sold to China and eventually appeared on the battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War. Because the cannons were engraved with Italian characters, they were used in some The title of "Italian gun" appears in the records.

"If I can build such a cannon, then I won't have to guard Liaodong." Zhu Youxiao played with the cannon in his hand and sighed softly.

If you have a system or a warehouse, you don't need to go to this trouble. You can ask the system or warehouse for a hundred AKs to conquer the world, and it is best to get unlimited bullets.

"Forget it, let's just play with the flintlock honestly!" Zhu Youxiao finally had no choice but to compromise.

Turning to look at Chen Hong, Zhu Youxiao asked expressionlessly: "How is the construction of my Baigong Institute going?"

This place seems to be dedicated to Zhu Youxiao's games, but in fact it is the place where Zhu Youxiao has devoted countless efforts.

This will be a research and development institution of Ming Dynasty, supervised and led by Zhu Youxiao personally.

Some people say that an emperor would do this himself?

In fact, I have to do it myself, because Zhu Youxiao is not at ease if it is left to someone else. There are too many constraints and too much corruption, and Zhu Youxiao is not at ease at all.

Even if he doesn't understand a lot of things, Zhu Youxiao can at least guide a few general directions. This is the key. So he must do it himself. I will recommend it tomorrow. I will test the water and recommend it. It is very important! I hope everyone can give it a try.
