Chapter Four Hundred and Twenty Six: Laozhai Deliberation
"well!"
Huang Taiji frowned. Since he returned from defeat, the situation on the surface has not changed much, but there is an undercurrent. Many people with ulterior motives are planning something.
Speaking of the Battle of Liaodong, at first, the Jin Dynasty expanded its advantages in order to defeat Fuyu Wei, but unexpectedly, the Ming Dynasty also came out and fought a big battle unexpectedly.
For the Later Jin Dynasty, I didn't expect such a tough battle, and I was not prepared enough.
For the Ming Dynasty, the army suddenly gathered out of the customs. It is said that the commander was all drawn back from the southwest. It can be seen that there was no plan in advance for this matter on the Ming Dynasty.
But coincidentally, this battle, which should have ended in one or two months, was in a daze in the second year of the Apocalypse.
At that time, Liaodong was from the Liaoyang front line in the east, from the three guards of Fuyu in the north, and from Shanhaixiong Pass in the south, and there were soldiers and horses everywhere, and no place was not fighting.
The Jin army besieged and the Ming army counterattacked. Battles of all sizes began one after another. Neither side planned to retreat. No one expected that this battle would last for a long time and lasted for nearly a year!
For this battle, the Ming Dynasty only rewarded millions of silver, not to mention the mobilization of troops and horses, and the military expenditure required for logistics and supplies, which is even an astronomical figure!
Huang Taiji only heard it later. If he had known that the Ming Dynasty had such a determination, he would never support Nurhaci to send troops.
Although it has returned in twists and turns, it is not easy for them to live!
When Zhu Xieyuan led reinforcements from the seven towns out of seclusion, the Later Jin Dynasty was actually in a difficult situation and could not retreat easily. They had no choice but to win.
But at that time, it was not just the two sides fighting wits and courage on the front line, but more of them competing for the foundation. This was exactly the weakness of the Later Jin Dynasty.
Huang Taiji had just received a flying report from Yawu Pass, saying that the Ming Dynasty ruler Xiong Tingbi led tens of thousands of troops out of the city, won several consecutive battles, had recovered Qinghebao, and Shenyang general Man Gui, who also went south to cooperate.
The counterattack of the Liao and Shen Ming Army? As Huang Taiji expected it? But now he had almost no choice but to stare at him.
Qinghe Fort was captured by the Later Jin army last year? The two worlds are close to the river and are also the only way to go to war and triumph? The location is very important.
The recapture of Qinghe Fort by the Ming army is of great significance.
"Send someone to report this to my father Khan! The matter is serious? No delays are allowed!"
"Yeah!"
A yellow-armored Jurchen soldier should shout? He turned around and left.
When the Jurchen soldiers left, Fan Wencheng looked at Huang Taiji and said worriedly: "The sweating and poisonous sores recur. Send news back at this time? I'm afraid I will..."
Huang Taiji naturally understood what he meant? He said coldly:
"How come I don't know that my father Khan will be furious when he hears it, but what can I do now? Xiong Tingbi's troops are coming over and intending to take back Liaodong. We can't wait for death!"
Fan Wencheng saw the coldness in Huang Taiji's eyes? He opened his mouth and no longer decided to continue talking.
Three days later, the news reached the Wenquan Town where Nurhaci was located. The latter was really furious when he heard this. He led his personal followers to rush back.
On that day, Nurhaci was wearing armor? He stepped onto the Khan court with great strides? He shouted:
"Turg? Beat the drums from all sides and asks the ministers of Bele to go to the palace to discuss matters quickly! Xiong Tingbi has been using troops continuously and bullying me too much!"
Seeing Nurhaci's face was solemn, Turg knew that there was a major matter to discuss, so he immediately stepped forward and beat the drum in front of the Khan's court.
Soon, all the ministers of Beller arrived.
Huang Taiji was standing next to Nurhaci's imperial throne. Seeing that everyone had arrived, he said with his hands behind his back:
"In the past three years, the young emperor has succeeded to the throne, killed Wang Huazhen, and appointed Xiong Tingbi. The situation in Liaodong is no longer as good as before. After losing the previous battle, our army suffered heavy losses and can no longer maintain the current situation in Liaodong."
"This time I asked you to come, just to discuss whether to completely withdraw from Liaodong!"
Upon hearing this, the ministers of the Later Jin Beile present were talking about it. They had never thought that there would be such a thing in the Khan's court.
Nurhaci coughed twice, leaned on the chair, and said slowly:
"Ben Khan repeatedly tried to break Liao Chen, but he failed. This time he tried to attack and destroy Zaishi and open up the border wall, but he still failed!"
Nurhaci's voice was quite a bit unfulfilled and the old horse was worried about being in the stable.
"In the past two or three years, I have suffered many defeats in the Dajin war. San Beile has been seriously injured and will recover for at least half a year. What should Ben Khan do?"
Hu Erhan is one of the only two remaining ministers today. While everyone was still talking, he was the first to stand up and say:
"Khan, Xiong Tingbi has been unable to defend himself a few years ago, and only started a counterattack after this battle, which shows that he has some support."
"With his personality, if he doesn't completely fight back to Liaodong, he will probably not stop. The most urgent thing is whether to defend Liaodong again."
Indeed, this issue is the focus of this discussion.
Fan Wencheng came out and said, "Sister, I don't know whether to say it or not."
Nurhaci looked at him and raised his hand to signal.
Fan Wencheng kowtowed and continued, "I feel that Liaodong can no longer be defended."
As soon as he finished speaking, he aroused several shouts in the Khan court.
Dai Shan has always been a mature and steady person, but this time he refused to agree and sneered:
"Sir is not my Jurchen tribe. I can't understand how my tribe members work hard to seize Liaodong from the Nan barbarians. Every castle and a city is all my Jurchen warriors who exchanged their blood and lives for their blood."
"Sir, speaking so frivolously, isn't it because I have thoughts in my heart?"
Fan Wencheng heard that Dai Shan’s words meant to be insinuated and ridiculed him as a Han Chinese, but he had long been accustomed to being an official in the Later Jin Dynasty, this kind of thing was common.
He had no response to the sarcasm in Dai Shan's words and said to himself:
"If the last battle was short and the Great Jin Dynasty was not damaged much, we could make progress again. However, our Great Jin Dynasty was not as strong as the Ming Dynasty, and it was even more severe after the war. It would be more costly to defend Liaodong."
"Besides, after the last battle, I'm afraid that many bannermen are not willing to wear armor to fight again, right?"
Fan Wencheng said this, looking at Nurhaci and said earnestly:
"The Khan, the capture of Liaodong is a long-term solution. We cannot just seek a quick moment. Only when the Jin Dynasty withdrew from Liaodong can we preserve its strength and intend to advance again next year!"
At this time, Huang Taiji also stood up and said:
"Father Khan, Mr. Fan's words are indeed true."
"The Yellow Inlaid Flag and the Two Blue Flags have suffered the most losses and are in urgent need of reconstruction. After the war, every household has a mourning. It is indeed a difficult task for them to go out to defend the city at this time."
"Once the rebellious heart of the flag people is aroused, it is afraid that it will shake the foundation of Dajin."
Huang Taiji was a little excited and his voice sounded a little hoarse. After saying that, he was still breathing heavily. It was obvious that he had experienced a fierce ideological struggle that he could express these rebellious words.
Nurhaci looked at his son, his eyes changed, and finally sighed, saying, "Can Liaodong, which was shot from the sea of blood in the khan, give in like this?"
"Xiong Tingbi, Xiong Tingbi!!"
