Chapter 152: The Great Town

Things in the world are so helpless. They are pressed tightly in Shaanxi by the court and cannot be moved at all.

Even though Li Xiu was prepared well and spent more resources to speed up the march, the capital of Shaanxi, which is more than 2,000 miles away, is still an insurmountable journey.

After all, the path of this era is not as well-connected as in later generations!

There are only a few official roads, connecting several important towns, and in some places, there is even no official road to speak of. This is also the reason why the wars of this era are important and important cities and fortresses.

Because if you don’t capture those heavy cities on major traffic roads, you have no place to go!

The estimated road is more than 2,000 miles, but in fact, it is far beyond this distance.

In addition, Ningyuan went to Shaanxi, and this distant messenger was rushing to the distance.

In fact, since Li Xiu set out his troops, he has lagged behind the Later Jin army.

Li Xiu led the Yongwei Battalion to hurry up halfway, while Nurhaci had already integrated the Mongolian troops, claiming to be tens of thousands of troops, with the troops heading straight to the border of Jizhen!

For the court, at this time, we know what it means to hate only when we use troops!

The main force of the Later Jin Dynasty was eyeing Liaodong. The elite Liao Town, which had always been regarded as the confidence of the court officials, dared not act at all at this moment.

In fact, since Yuan Chonghuan's military information came to the capital, the courtiers who had been shouting that Yuan Chonghuan should lead troops to stop Nurhaci immediately, and immediately closed their mouths.

The court officials naturally knew the role of Liao Town. Even if Nurhaci broke through the sky, he would not be able to stay in the Central Plains for a long time, and sooner or later he would have to go back.

But if Liao Town is lost, it will be completely finished. Shanhaiguan is only a few hundred miles away from the capital. In the future, the Jin army will be able to reach the capital in a few days. If it is not good, this glorious Ming Dynasty will have to travel south and repeat the events of the previous dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty will have to become the Southern Ming Dynasty, which is a huge disaster!

The most elite Liaozhen border army in the Ming Dynasty could not move. Before the world's king-supported troops arrived, they had to rely on Jizhen border army and... well, and the Jing camp...

However, the court officials naturally knew what their family matters were, the border troops in Jizhen, and the Jingying.

Although you are prepared in advance, erosion and decay will not be solved in a short time!

So, the decrees urging the army of kings in various places to spread everywhere, like snowflakes, urging, urging, or urging.

And this time, the court officials finally stopped thinking about pressing Li Xiu and Yongwei Camp in Shaanxi and not moving.

In fact, everyone knew that the news of the dispatch of the Later Jin Dynasty came to the court. This time, it was impossible to hold down the Yongwei Camp again.

It is inevitable that Yongweiying will return to Beijing.

This is true. Out of evil taste, Li Xiu led his army to serve the king and returned to the capital, and he did not forget to report the progress of the march to the Ministry of War every day.

This has made many court officials disgusted.

Everyone knows that you, Li Xiu, never misses the Ministry of War. Now you report every day, what are you showing off!

However, the speed of the marching of the Yongwei Camp really surprised many court officials.

Other troops who can travel fifty or sixty miles a day, so they should hurry up and wait and the court keeps urging them.

Judging from the progress of the marching, the Yongwei Battalion seemed to be marching at least eighty or ninety miles every day. This speed was almost as fast as the cavalry's marching speed!

Sun Chengzong, who was temporarily appointed by Zhu Youjian to coordinate the defense of Beijing Ji, after understanding the speed of the Yongwei Battalion, said in public that if the speed of the marching is so urgent, the Yongwei Battalion can still maintain a complete system and fight against Nurhaci, and the Yongwei Battalion should be the absolute main force.

The court officials naturally had no choice but to comment on this. Although after several battles to combat the thieves, the court officials also knew that the Yongwei Camp was definitely not a weak brigade, but the real quality of it still needs to be carefully considered.

But in the current situation, it is also a good thing to have a strong army to help.

However, Li Xiu's unique attitude made many court officials worried.

As a result, many remarks emerged in the court, saying that when the war is in place, the Yongwei Battalion needs to be incorporated into the combat sequence, unified orders and unified commands.

Zhu Youjian naturally couldn't even reason with such remarks.

Although it is a good thing to unify orders and command, he knew the thoughts of these court officials too well. If he dared to issue an order to let the Yongwei Battalion obey the command of the court officials, they would definitely dare to destroy the Yongwei Battalion as cannon fodder!

Zhu Youjian wanted to win two birds with one stone, but how could these old foxes not have imagined it?

Obviously, before this war officially began, the Ming Dynasty court seemed to be uneven, and even it was difficult to unify orders.

In fact, Li Xiu also ignored this point.

He ignored the degree to which Zhu Youjian valued the only military power he relied on.

But Li Xiu was the opposite of this.

The casualties of the war are inevitable. If he wants to show his style in this battle, he must choose the most difficult battle!

To achieve the desired result, you must face the most fierce military striker of the Later Jin Dynasty!

As long as he wins, what if the Yongwei Camp is disabled?

In this era, the most undesirable thing is people!

Just as Li Xiu was still rushing towards the capital, Nurhaci's military attack completely tore open the fig leaf of the Ming court.

In early October of the first year of Chongzhen, Nurhaci led more than 100,000 troops, divided into three groups, and broke through the pass from Xifengkou.

The general of the Hongshankou gate of the Ming Dynasty and the deputy general of Hanerzhuang led the army to support him, but the troops were defeated and died.

The garrison of Panjiakou, the garrison of Da'ankou, the garrison of Da'ankou, Zhao Tianfu... Many Ming generals surrendered in a glance, transformed themselves from the border army of the Ming Dynasty, became the general of the Later Jin Dynasty, guarded the rear road for the Later Jin Dynasty, suppressed the military and civilians, and forced them to shave their heads!

The will of the emperor to defend the will of all cities under his command did not seem to have any effect in this decayed environment.

Of course, this is also normal. After all, the heroes and dangers of the nine sides are only Jizhen, but Jizhen should be the leader of the poor and bad things of the nine sides.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! The rise of the Later Jin Dynasty and the growth of Liao Town have swallowed up too many resources that should have belonged to Ji Town.

Therefore, the Later Jin army entered the pass without any obstacles, carrying the soldiers and generals of the Ming border, and the soldiers headed straight towards the important city of Zunhua!

This time, it was different from history. Under the threat of the Liaodong Later Jin soldiers, Yuan Chonghuan did not dare to move.

Therefore, Zunhua City in this time and space have no support from the elite Liao Town. Of course, the support in history is a tragedy.

Of course, Zunhua was not without support. After confirming that the Later Jin Dynasty entered the pass from Xifengkou, the court also urgently ordered border soldiers and generals in Miyun and other places, as well as large armies such as Shanxi Xuanfu to enter Zunhua City. Zunhua City had already prepared a large amount of food and grass.

Moreover, under the forced promotion of Zhu Youjian, the Jinyiwei had already searched the city for the Seizure of the Later Jin Dynasty and strictly guarded the enemy.

Today's Zunhua City is undoubtedly strong and has sufficient food and supplies, which is enough to fight.

Nurhaci obviously saw this, and wrote letters in person many times to surrender, but was flatly rejected.

Therefore, one day after the Later Jin army arrived outside Zunhua City, under Nurhaci's military order, the Later Jin army entered the pass and started the first truly siege battle.

The outbreak of this war undoubtedly attracted the attention of the government and the public.

The soldiers and soldiers from other places are on the way. As long as Zunhua can defend this window period, it means that the court has enough troops and time.

By then, whether it is to support Zunhua or strengthen the Jizhou defense after Zunhua, it will be more than enough.
