【Chapter 710】Who did I provoke?
Bai Keming took the initiative to salute Xu Xingxia and said a few polite words. He spoke very standard Chinese, and there was no difficulty in communicating with Xu Xingxia. If it weren't for his bare head, money rat tail, and strange outfit, most people would think that he was a Han Chinese. The name of the Han people and the skillful Chinese, he would admire the Han people.
According to Bai Keming, the battle between the White Army and the Great Jin Army was entirely out of misunderstanding. The White Army and the Great Jin Army should strengthen communication with each other. After all, there is a common enemy between the two, that is the Ming Army. By this time, Bai Keming still believed that the White Army and the Ming Army were hostile. This has to be said that the Great Jin Kingdom had too little understanding of the White Army. He also knew too little about the situation in the mainland of the Ming Dynasty.
If Bai Keming knew that Xu Xingxia was marrying the princess of the Ming Dynasty, he would never have said such words. He didn't even know such a big thing in the Ming Dynasty. It is conceivable how much he knew about the White-Clothed Army. It is estimated that the Jin Kingdom had never really paid attention to the mainland of the Ming Dynasty. There were very few spies they sent to the Ming Dynasty. Most of the news about the mainland was founded from merchants. Whether the news from the mainland was true or false, even they could not verify it themselves. []
Nurhaci never paid much attention to the mainland of the Ming Dynasty and did not have much energy to pay attention to it. At this time, the Great Jin Kingdom was only limited to the Liaodong region. The Great Jin Kingdom really attached importance to the Central Plains and had to wait until Huang Taiji ascended the throne. Huang Taiji had much more interest in the mainland of the Ming Dynasty than Nurhaci. The Great Jin Kingdom tried to march into the Central Plains from the era of Huang Taiji and reached its peak in the era of Dorgon.
In fact, Bai Keming said it was a misunderstanding, and it was not wrong. Since it was a misunderstanding, there was no need to continue fighting. As long as the Jin army took the initiative to return all the money and wealth, they would take out all the gold and silver wealth to compensate the Han people for their losses, and then wiped their necks and atone for their sins. With Xu Xingxia's magnanimity, they should not continue to pursue it.
Of course, if the angry Liaodong people continue to pursue the investigation and want to dig out the dead Jianlu and whip the corpse, that is the business of others. You can't ask others to be as magnanimous as you, right? Sometimes, Xu Xingxia feels that he is indeed a good person among good people. His handling of Jianlu is really too kind. If it were someone else, he would definitely ask Jianlu to commit suicide on the spot and would never indulge them to go back to Hetuala.
Xu Xingxia said bluntly: "Bai Keming, the two armies are fighting and the envoys are coming. If you have anything to say, just say it. I think you came for Babuhai, right?"
Bai Keming originally wanted to continue talking nonsense with Xu Xingxia to cover up his true purpose. However, since Xu Xingxia bluntly mentioned Babuhai's name, he had to go straight to the point and said straight to the point: "I don't know what conditions your army needs to release Babuhaibele? I hope your army understands that we are very sincere in negotiating."
Xu Xingxia did not answer, but asked, "What price are you willing to pay?"
Of course, Bai Keming would not be fooled by Xu Xingxia. If he spoke first, he would definitely be in a passive position. He would definitely be blackmailed by Xu Xingxia. Whoever spoke first would be a fool. Therefore, he insisted: "Please ask your army to offer a price. As long as the price offered by your army is reasonable, our army is willing to accept it."
Xu Xingxia said lightly: "But we actually don't mean to release Babuhai. We are going to escort Babuhai to Nanjing and hand it over to His Majesty the Emperor for handling. I have sent someone to report to the Nanjing court. I guess the Jinyiwei will be sent to bring people soon. If you want to withdraw the ransom, let's talk to Nanjing. Our white-clothed army is actually responsible for arresting people, and we ignore any other matters."
Bai Keming was immediately anxious. If Babuhai was escorted to Nanjing, everything would be over. The Jin army wiped out so many Ming troops in Liaodong, and they were as close as the sea and were irreconcilable as the sea. The ending of Babuhai after being escorted to Nanjing was not something to be thought of. It must be executed by the publicly lingchi. The Ming Dynasty was waiting for this day, but I don’t know how long it had been.
He hurriedly said, "Sir, we are indeed determined to redeem Babu Haibeile. Please do not escort it to Nanjing. Everything is easy to discuss!"
Xu Xingxia said as if nothing had happened: "I'm afraid you can't make the decision, right?"
Bai Keming said tactfully: "We will always give adults a reasonable price if we ask for a price all over the sky and pay it back when we make it. If we accidentally offend our majesty before, please give us a high priority and accept our most sincere apology."
Xu Xingxia said lightly: "Since that's the case, then tell Nurhaci that I want him to evacuate from Liaodong! I will give it to others whenever he withdraws his troops!"
Bai Keming wanted to speak but stopped. In fact, he wanted to tell Xu Xingxia bluntly. The Jin army could not accept this condition. It would be better to let Babuhai die if Nurhaci wanted to evacuate from Liaodong. Idiots knew that since the Jin army entered Liaodong, they would not leave easily. The richness and beauty here have made the Jin Kingdom treat this place as their territory. Big cities such as Liaoyang, Shenyang, Fushun, and Tieling are much better than Hertuala. They were unwilling to leave when they came. Even Bai Keming was unwilling to leave.
However, only Nurhaci himself can make decisions about this matter, and nothing else is useful to others. Since Xu Xingxia made such a request, they could only convey it to Nurhaci in this way. As for what kind of reaction Nurhaci would have after he knew it, it was not something that Bai Keming could control. Even Amin couldn't interfere in this matter. In desperation, Bai Keming had to say goodbye and leave.
"Bastard! It's so bullying!" Amin shouted angrily.
Xu Xingxia's reply made Amin feel very uncomfortable. He was so angry that he wanted the Jin army to withdraw from Liaodong? Such a request was a blessing from Xu Xingxia. Who did he think he was? Did he think he was the lord of Liaodong? Did he think he had enough ability to challenge the entire Jin Kingdom? It was ridiculous! He actually despised his authority and regarded himself as a transparent person? For a moment, Amin wanted to remove Xu Xingxia's skin!
However, being angry is being angry, being rational is being rational. Amin really has no better way to deal with Xu Xingxia, a bastard. Obviously, the place of Yangguan Fort is a huge trap. A huge trap that can devour countless lives. The five Niulu Dajin Army was swallowed up in a blink of an eye. Xu Xingxia's reply in this way must have angered Amin and stimulated him to continue to launch an attack. If Amin's mind was hot and ordered the troops to continue attacking, he would definitely fall into the trap of the White Army again.
A hero is not suffering from the loss at the moment. Amin deeply understands this truth. The Inlaid Blue Flag has already lost five Niulu's troops in the small place of Yangguan Fort. Amin said that he would not continue to do such stupid things. Even if he seems to be timid in the eyes of outsiders, he will never continue to launch a stupid attack. Unless he wants to wipe out the entire Inlaid Blue Flag. He must first figure out why the combat power of the White Army is so strong.
As for pulling the cannons up to help, Amin thought about it. The Jin army seized a lot of Ming army cannons on the battlefield in Liaodong, most of which were Flang machine cannons. Amin once made a rough calculation that there were about fifty cannons he could control. If he dragged them up, a bombardment at Yangguan Fort might be of some use.
However, Amin later thought about it and gave up. The Yangguan Fort is behind the sea. The White-Clothed Army must have sea routes connected to the distant Shandong, so that they can move forward and retreat freely. Even with cannons, they cannot eliminate all the White-Clothed Army. When the opportunity is not good, the White-Clothed Army will definitely retreat by boat. If the White-Clothed Army is forced away, the future will be even more troublesome. Even if you can't handle the White-Clothed Army in Liaodong, you will still chase the Mainland?
Besides, the shells do not have eyes. If the cannon kills Babuhai, Nurhaci probably won't be able to pass the checkup. Others will also think that they are taking personal revenge and deliberately killing Babuhai. Especially Huang Taiji, who has never met him. If he really accidentally killed Babuhai, Huang Taiji will definitely put a lot of charges on his head. Therefore, even if he wants to carry out shelling, Nurhaci should have ordered it himself. Anyway, Babuhai is his son, and even if he is beaten to death, he has nothing to say.
"Center all the cannons." Amin gave a depressed order. When this matter got a big deal, Nurhaci must come to solve it in the end. He must prepare all the means, including peaceful means and non-peaceful means. If there is any mistake, Nurhaci will probably not be able to forgive him. He must find a way to protect himself.
"Write a letter to report to the Khan to the death, and ask for a punishment by the way. Alas, who did I provoke whom? God did this to me!" After thinking about it, Amin said helplessly. He sighed again with depression. His luck was really bad. He stayed in Haizhou City and did not provoke anyone. As a result, he actually met the White Army and Xu Xingxia. As soon as the two sides contacted each other, the Jin Army was defeated.
