Chapter 983 Ji Zi Juan Enemy Situation (1)
It can be seen from the sand table that the entire Yongping Mansion slopes from the northwest to the southeast, and the Great Wall was built along the mountains. However, these Great Walls were mainly made of beacons, and there were countless passes in the mountains. The Mongols You can get in from the grassland in the north through these valleys and passes.
From east to west, along the southern foothills of these mountains, there are Shimenzhai Camp, Taitou Camp, Yanhe Camp, Jianchang Camp, Taiping Camp, Luanyang Camp, and Santun Camp farther west, where are The headquarters of the General Military Mansion in Ji Town.
Among them, Shanhaiguan in the east is only responsible for guarding Shanhaiguan City and its nearby Yuguan. It also takes care of Taipingying in the west. Taipingying is responsible for targeting enemies that may be encountered along the lines of Huangtuling, Damaoshan and Yiyuankou.
Taitou Battalion is responsible for possible enemy situations at Jialingkou and Qingshankou, while Yanhe Battalion and Jianchang Battalion are responsible for the enemy situations at Taolingkou and Lengkou respectively, and support each other.
Taiping Camp is responsible for the enemy situation on the front lines of Cayazi and Yumuling, while Luanyang Camp is responsible for the front lines of Dongjiakou, Xifengkou and Lijiagu.
The Santun Camp is responsible for the front line of Panjiakou and Hongshankou, and also supports the Luanyang Camp and Taiping Camp.
This may seem thorough, and basically takes care of every section of the defense line. No matter which line the Mongols break through, there will be battalions to deal with, and there is also a mutual support mechanism, but this is only based on a small group of Mongolians. under the premise of invasion.
If there is an invasion of thousands or even tens of thousands of Mongols, this method can indeed work very well, attacking quickly and forming a pincer attack. However, once the invasion exceeds 10,000 or even tens of thousands, this coping mechanism will become ineffective. Quite fragile.
Ji Town is divided into three roads, the east road and the middle road are in Yongping, and the most important west road is in Shuntianfu. In comparison, the scope of defense of the west road is not narrower than the east road and the middle road combined, and even the mission The pressure is even heavier because there is the Capital City behind it, which is why the Jizhen General Army Station is set up in Santun Camp, which is adjacent to Shuntian Mansion.
From the Santun camp to the west, there are Zhongyi Zhongwei, Dongsheng Youwei, Yingzhou Youtunwei, Zhenshuowei, Yingzhou Zhongtunwei, Yingzhou Houtunwei, and Xingzhou Houtunwei. Although they have been eliminated several times, a considerable number of garrison troops are still retained as supplementary troops for the Jizhen frontier army. Two-thirds of the Jizhen army, more than 60,000 troops, are stationed along the entire West Road.
The long east and middle roads only have less than one-third of the troops in Ji Town. This also includes the immobilized troops at the Santun Camp Ji Town General Soldier Station and Shanhaiguan Pass. In other words, hundreds of miles away, there are The six camps actually have less than 20,000 troops.
It is conceivable that the 20,000 soldiers and horses distributed in six camps could not withstand the Mongol cavalry coming like a flood. Such fortifications could only be defeated one by one or even annihilated one by one.
Therefore, Feng Ziying could guess that You Shigong had already issued an order to shrink the troops to ensure that Shuntian Mansion. Where the troops would come from, they would naturally come from the six battalions in Yongping, which were already difficult to withstand. Draw.
Feng Ziying's eyes wandered along the side wall on the sand table. Although the line from Yiyuankou to Jialingkou was possible, he judged that it was unlikely. It was too close to Shanhaiguan. Even if the Mongolians tried their best, they would still be vulnerable. The troops who arrived at Shanhaiguan stopped and attacked.
Similarly, in Yongping territory to the west of Xifengkou, it goes all the way to Jiangjunshi on the Shuntian Mansion side. Although the route is long, there are tens of thousands of troops stationed in this side wall, and there are multiple guard stations as fulcrums. Chaha If we want to break through from here, we will face obstacles from all sides.
Only the section from Qingshankou to Jialingkou covers hundreds of miles. More than 10,000 people are stationed in Taitou Camp, Yanhe Camp, Jianchang Camp and Taiping Camp. There are too many passes and valleys for breakthrough. This is also The main reason why You Shigong is unwilling to defend this line is that it is really difficult to defend.
Especially when the Mongols have abundant troops and stronger mobility, they can easily open up the defense line by concealing the enemy's strength, attacking from the east and attacking from the west, or diverting the troops away from the mountains. They can avoid the real and attack the weak or encircle the point to send reinforcements, causing one's own side to be even more passive.
Thinking of this, Feng Ziying couldn't help but sigh. Jizhen could open his mouth, and You Shigong could use the excuse of guarding Shuntian Mansion to withdraw troops and give up, but he had no choice.
Now we can only hope that Zuo Liangyu, Huang Degong and Luo Guanyin can live up to expectations.

Coming out of the Ministry of War mansion, Busia Mara couldn't help it anymore, "Delgrad, this won't work!"
Delgrad sighed, "Then what can we do? Brother Dong, you have also seen how busy the Minister of War is in Dazhou. I can be sure that this is not only because of their problems in the southwest, but also with the It has something to do with the fact that the Mongolian left wing on the grassland has begun to become restless. Under such circumstances, how much do you think they still care about our life and death?"
"My eldest brother took Niyahan to see Governor Feng, but he didn't get any promise. I heard that Governor Feng was also worried about the pressure Jizhen was facing. The Mongols broke through from his Jizhen territory and attacked the capital city. He would He took responsibility, so he did not give the elder brother and the others a good look." Delgler's face was gloomy.
"Delgrad, we still have to find their boss. If we find nothing and Zhou gives up on us, Nurhachi will definitely use this opportunity to attack us and the Ula tribe. Whether we can persist is hard to say, but Buzhantai It will definitely not be able to hold up there, and Bu Zhantai may fall, and once he does, we won’t be able to gain a foothold."
A look of determination appeared on Busia Mara's sharp and sharp cheeks, "We are going to find that little Feng Xiuzhan!"
Delgler frowned and said, "Didn't you ask before? That little Feng Xiuzhan has lost some power and been released. There is no point in us looking for him."
"No, Delgrad, you don't know much about these Han people. The Han people particularly value family ties, teacher-student ties, and hometown ties. Xiao Feng Xiuzuan is the only son of Governor Feng. Governor Feng will never sit idly by and ignore Xiao Feng Xiuzuan. And Xiao Feng Xiuzhuan’s teacher is the current court elder, and the two people from the Ministry of War also value him very much. If we can get a promise from him, he can help us coordinate and mediate between Liaodong and the Ministry of War of the Great Zhou Dynasty, then We can win the initiative."
Delgler did not expect Busia Mara to know so much about the officialdom of the Han people in the Great Zhou Dynasty. He couldn't help but smacked his lips, "Brother Dong, how do you know this?"
"Delgrad, we are a weak party. If we want to survive among all the forces, we can only rely on the strong. Da Zhou is our most important ally and backer. If we want to win their support, we must We need to understand all their internal customs and rituals."
Bushyamala’s words were full of helplessness and unwillingness, but also a little stubborn.
“Then what should we do now?”
"It's only a few hundred miles to Yongping, it's nothing." Bushiya Mara said resolutely.
Facing Busia Mara's stubbornness and determination, Delgrad was speechless, "I'm afraid that kid may not be able to help us now."
Feng Ziying was also surprised when she saw Busia Mara and her party.
Bushiyamalan’s strong and tall body is so eye-catching, especially her beautiful eyes beside the clear pool, which penetrate people’s soul.
“Is it you?” Feng Ziying was touched and slightly surprised by Busia Mara and Delgrad.
"Master Feng, you are all well..." Busia Mara spoke in a formal tone. Feng Ziying heard some stiff remarks, which was quite funny, "Miss Dong Ge, it seems that you are well, well, at least, at least Your mood and expression are not good, is it because of the Jurchens?"
"Your Majesty, you are asking this question knowingly. The Jianzhou Jurchens are about to attack us and the Ula tribe, but your father turned a blind eye. We have established your imperial military department, and they are not even willing to see our faces. Is this how your Zhou army treats us?" Allies, or in just half a year, you have changed your tune and turned a blind eye to our Haixi Jurchens?"
Bushyamala said in an angry tone.
Feng Ziying burst into laughter, "Brother Dong, the role of allies is reciprocal. When you want to question others, you should first ask yourself, what have you done for others and allies? Blindly force others to pay, and ignore your own obligations. , no one will like such an ally, and it will never last long.”
Seeing Busia Mara suffocated, Feng Ziying continued enthusiastically: "Dazhou has done a lot for his allies, and he even gave the things he was in short supply to his allies first, but as an ally, Ye Hebu did What? I know why you are here. Nurhaci will definitely take action this autumn. The Mongols want to launch a large-scale attack on Nanqin, which has occupied most of the minds of the Zhou Dynasty. Naturally, there is no energy to interfere with other matters. Then Ye Hebu did what he did for the Zhou Dynasty. What’s not there?”
Bushiyamala’s attitude softened a little, and her tone became much gentler, “Our Yehe tribe has limited strength and really can’t do much.”
"If we can't do anything for the Jurchens in Jianzhou, what about the Chahar people, what about the internal and external Khalkha tribes, and what about the Horqin tribe? If nothing can be done, then what can we do if the Great Zhou wants the Yehe tribe? What's the meaning and value?" Feng Ziying's attitude was cold.
“Then what does the Great Zhou need from our Ye Hebe?” Busiyamala’s face was grim. She realized that the young man in front of her might not be as easy to talk to as last time. What did Ye Hebe need to do?
Asking for a guaranteed monthly pass!
