"Duke of Liao?" Kong Youde looked at Mao Wenlong.

I have to say that people like Mao Wenlong are upright, and there are not many people in the world who don’t scold him.

If it weren't for this kind of personality, how could even Yuan Chonghuan have to compromise? He would have to fight hard?

Now it is rare to see the general attaching so much importance to such a person, but Kong Youde became curious, so he said, "This person is very tall, but..."

Before he could finish his words, Mao Wenlong interrupted: "This Liao Duke is not just a high position. This man is very sensible and has low-key work. He also... His Donglin Army defeated Dorgon under the capital."

Kong Youde was shocked when he said this. Although the Dongjiang Army often went ashore to harass the Jiannu people, he had no courage to fight with the Eight Banners Cavalry head-on.

Thinking of this, Kong Youde said, "I'm afraid his Donglin Army will lose a lot."

"This is what makes people rare. It is said that the Donglin Army did not suffer much loss, but the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry, which lost tens of thousands of people, and it was a complete defeat."

Kong Youde couldn't help but say, "Haha... this... I can't believe it."

Mao Wenlong said: "Yes, I can't believe it, but this is what Your Majesty said. Even if Zhang Jingyi is a false praise of his military achievements, he will definitely have some real achievements. Even if he makes a half-fold, even if he annihilates three to five thousand or ten thousand enemies, his record cannot be underestimated. This time, His descendant is to attack Shenyang directly. What do you think about this?"

"This is absolutely impossible."

"Of course it is impossible." Mao Wenlong said excitedly: "But everything in the world has started from impossible? I, the Ming Dynasty, dared not directly attack the Jiannu's nest. After a Battle of Sarhu, everyone was afraid of it. Because of this, it is enough to be gratified that Your Majesty and the Liao Duke have such courage! In any case, we must cooperate with Your Majesty and the Liao Duke. They do not need our Dongjiang Army to go on a war together, so we will land in various ports in Liaodong to harass them, and act like we are dying with them, which will inevitably drag the Jiannu people from other places."

"This battle is related to the fate of the country and whether the 200,000 soldiers and civilians in Dongjiang Town can go back to their homes. This is a tough battle! So, tell the brothers, we must do our best!"

After saying that, Mao Wenlong changed the subject: "How much food is left on the island now?"

"Seventy thousand stones."

"The seventy thousand stones are a little less, but... let the brothers eat their fill first."

"What if I eat like this? What should I do if the food is exhausted and the grain ship doesn't come?"

Mao Wenlong said, "Then there is nothing to do, so he has to go hungry."

Kong Youde felt that the general had taken the wrong medicine. Over the years, Mao Wenlong had been asking for salary under various pretexts, but the supplies given by the court seemed to be like a hawk, which kept you in a state of half-death.

In order to raise grain, the Dongjiang Army even attacked the Jiannu people along the coast every spring, and this was all the food they earned with their lives. Therefore, for so many years, Dongjiang Town relied on Mao Wenlong to make careful calculations and be meticulous to persevere.

This is all right away, just go straight to the point.

Mao Wenlong glanced at Kong Youde: "What, what else do you have to say?"

"Just listen to the general's orders. But... the general, the court treats us like a pig or a dog, this emperor..."

Mao Wenlong said: "I knew you were dissatisfied, not to mention that you and I are wise ministers. When Your Majesty was in charge of the army, he should do his best to die. Not to mention, I see that Your Majesty has great ambitions... Those in the court said that I am the emperor overseas and have the intention of rebellion, but Your Majesty did not take the land by land, but by sea, and went directly to our Dongjiang Town. What does this mean? This is treating me with a national sect..."

Speaking of this, Mao Wenlong sighed. To be honest, from Zhejiang to Liaodong, Mao Wenlong has been questioned countless times since he made his mark in Liaodong.

The civil officials believed that he was a military officer, so they naturally guarded against him. The Liao general regarded him as an outsider, not his own, but also had various constraints.

Only in this Dongjiang Town, Mao Wenlong has a very high reputation.

For example, in history, Kong Youde was extremely dissatisfied after Mao Wenlong was killed and simply surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. Finally, when he was old, he was as a prince as a prince, but he kept the "General" (Mao Wenlong) every day. When he talked about the general, he was flirting with his eyes. However, he was unwilling to mention other people and things.

At this time, Mao Wenlong continued, "Your Majesty treats me as a national soldier. My lowly life is your Majesty's! You and other brothers have always shared life and death with me. Today, I want to fight to the death, so you decide for yourself."

After Kong Youde heard this, how could he dare to respond? The one he admired the most was Mao Wenlong. Not to mention him, others such as Geng Zhongming, Shang Kexi and others were also devoted to Mao Wenlong. However, their hearts were already cold towards the court.

Now that Mao Wenlong said this, Kong Youde said, "I know, since the general said this, we will obey the order."

So the Donglin Army began to board the ship after the subsequent supply ships arrived, preparing to continue to march towards the hinterland of Liaodong.

At this moment, Mao Wenlong also reported and begged to go to war.

Hundreds of ships of all sizes of the Dongjiang Army.

Of course, the so-called hundreds of ships have moisture, and the vast majority are actually small broken ships carrying dozens of people.

Mao Wenlong was willing to follow the army together.

At this time, it began to snow in the sky. In the sea fog, and in the heavy snow, teams of Donglin troops, fully armed, rushed to the dock.

The people of Dongjiang are very unfamiliar with these military horses. They think that this military horse is too neat.

In their impression, the army and horses should be like the Dongjiang Army. They were all wearing broken cotton armor, which was already broken, and some were old and young, and their yellow teeth were grinning.

People watched the army silently board the ship, and most of them just sighed.

"It's pitiful, go to attack Shenyang, how could this soldier who looks like a student be the opponent..."

People regretted that the promise of Donglin Army did not bring much hope to return to their hometown, and most of them just felt sorry and sympathy.

A few days later.

The military towns of Jiannu such as Haizhou, Fuzhou, and Jinzhou were attacked, and a large number of Dongjiang troops appeared and launched an attack at dawn.

The fortresses set up by seven or eight consecutive Jiannu people were originally intended to prevent the Dongjiang Army. But this time, it was strange that once the Dongjiang Army appeared in the past, the Jiannu people would inevitably go to fight, and the Dongjiang Army did not dare to face their edge and often fought with them.

But this time... the Jiannu people disappeared.

Only a small number of Jiannu people were left, and their Han military camps were all huddled in the fortress. So the Dongjiang Army began to gather the Liao people under the fortress and acted as if they wanted to launch a large-scale attack.

On the other side, a lonely army landed directly from near Jinzhou, and then... marched directly towards Chenyang.

The areas of Chenyang, Fushun and Tieling are the nests of the Jiannu people, and the defense is the most stringent.

But under the leadership of a guide named Shang Kexi, the Donglin Army galloped all the way.

They carried a lot of weight, and as infantrymen, they did not advance quickly.

At this time, this place had become a snow field and the land was flat, so Zhang Jing ordered people to cut down wood and make sleds, which accelerated the speed a lot.

At this time, the Donglin Army had already changed into a winter coat, which was made of cotton. It was worn on her body. Although it was slower to move, it could shelter from the wind and snow.

The practice of daily life has appeared at this time.

The Donglin Army has excellent endurance and abundant physical strength. In addition, the orders are prohibited, so it can advance quickly at a speed of marching for 60 miles a day.

This surprised Shang Kexi, who was the guide. In his experience, it is good to travel twenty miles a day for ordinary military horses. But for continuous march, sixty miles a day, who are these people?

Along the way, I occasionally encountered some Jiannu people and some military forts, but as soon as the Donglin army arrived, as the first teaching team of the vanguard, they directly pulled out these strongholds.

The speed was very fast. When the person arrived, he surrounded the fortress and exploded him a few times. In order to save ammunition, he directly charged with a bayonet. This kind of tactic is the simplest, but it was almost impossible for these Jiannu people or Han troops to resist it.

More than ten days later, everyone advanced to the front line of Chenyang.

The fortresses here began to be dense, with many military towns of Jiannu people.

But soon, everyone discovered that the Jiannu people seemed to have no intention of defending these military towns, leaving only the elderly, weak, sick and disabled, and the vast majority began to gather towards Chenyang.

This was never imagined in the past.

At least for the guide Shang Kexi, the Jiannu people are best at taking the initiative.

And when the enemy arrives now, it is something that I can't imagine if I can hide and take the initiative to give up the military fort.

He couldn't help but feel worried, and wanted to remind Emperor Tianqi and Zhang Jingyi that there must be a fraud among them. The army should take a break first, and see what tricks the Jiannu people should play.

As a result... Emperor Tianqi ordered the continued advancement and went straight to the city of Chenyang.

At this time, there were countless Jiannu soldiers in Shenyang City.

These eight banners of Jiannu who had just galloped back to Chenyang, as well as the Han army, which were like frightened birds, were already panicked at this time.

I rode my horse, ran all the way, day and night, and then I traveled thousands of miles and returned to Chenyang.

But the Donglin Army had arrived at the city of Chenyang at this time.

It is said that soldiers are very fast, but this speed is really hard to imagine.

At this time, Dorgon was still in shock and finally calmed down. He was still thinking about how to slowly plan to build the Shenji camp in the future and create artillery and muskets. He also thought about how to cooperate with the inside and outside of the Jinzhou line, first take the Guanjin line, and then plot inside the Guanjin line.

I never thought that... Donglin Army came.
Chapter completed!
