"What's the situation in Jinzhou?" Huang Taiji sank his face when he saw the messenger and shouted sternly.

Although it was relatively smooth in Ningjin's direction, the Zu family army was basically killed, and the military force that harassed the Qing Dynasty was missing. However, North Korea, which did not want to have problems, has problems. Is there another problem in Jinzhou now?

To be honest, at this time, Huang Taiji was two big heads. This was not because he was fat, but because he was upset.

In Chongzheng Hall, the other Qing Dynasty leaders all looked bad. At least at this time, they were not naive yet, and Daishan came to reward the victory.

As expected, he immediately submitted a letter to the messenger. His colleague reported: "Ban Zhifu, the general of King Zhisun, was found outside Jinzhou City. According to his report, King Zhisun had committed suicide when he was besieged by North Korea!"

Hearing this, although Huang Taiji's face was still not good-looking, those who are more careful, such as Fan Wencheng, can see that Huang Taiji was actually a little relieved.

North Korea cut off the nose of the messenger and drove him back to know that King Jisun, who stayed in North Korea, was probably in danger. Therefore, it was not surprising to hear that Shang Kexi committed suicide.

Poor Shang Kexi was determined to serve his new master for the sake of the Qing Dynasty. Now he didn't know until he died. His death actually caused no waves in the Qing Dynasty, and not many people cared about his life or death.

He saw that Huang Taiji had quickly finished reading Daishan's memorial, then lowered his head and thought for a while, suddenly frowned and asked, "How could this group of Zhifu appear outside Jinzhou City?"

There were other people in the hall who also wanted to know about this doubt, so they all looked at the messenger.

"Go back to Your Majesty, according to what the group of Zhifu said, they were originally going to be taken to Ming Kingdom. After they arrived in the Jinzhou waters, they jumped back to the sea." The messenger replied respectfully.

These people don’t understand the situation at sea, so they don’t doubt it. Otherwise, some people would definitely doubt it’s so easy to jump into the sea and escape?

In fact, Ban Zhifu was afraid that it would cause unnecessary trouble if Jun let them go on their own initiative. For example, some people would not believe it, and would ask Ming Jun why they wanted to let them go? Did they reach an agreement with Ming Jun? Anyway, there are many questions, and some are not easy to answer. Therefore, they simply deceived and said that it would be better to jump back and escape!

After hearing this, Huang Taiji asked again: "What else did Ban Zhifuke say? What is the situation in North Korea?"

There are naturally relevant descriptions in Daishan's memorials. However, Huang Taiji was not satisfied, so he wanted to ask if there was more news.

So the messenger introduced it again, which was probably similar to the content of Daishan's memorial. However, when he talked to the end, he hesitated a little, as if he didn't know whether to say it.

When Huang Taiji saw this, he shouted sternly: "No matter what news, no matter how much information is, it must be concealed!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" When the messenger heard this, he looked tight and quickly replied, "According to Ban Zhifu's confession, he heard that Gushan Ezhen of Zhengbai Banner surrendered to the Ming army and was taken to the capital of the Ming Kingdom. However, he did not see it with his own eyes. The Jinzhou unanimously agreed that this must be the Ming army sow discord, so no one believed this rumor."

"Absolutely, how could Ying'erdai surrender to the Ming army? His head was not clamped by the door!" Duoduo immediately agreed when he heard this, "He must have died in battle!"

"Yes, the Qing Dynasty has never surrendered to the Ming army. Ying'erdai is at least a man, so he will definitely not surrender!" Ajige also shouted.

It would be a irony if the Qing Dynasty had such a high-level official who would surrender to the Ming army.

Even Gushan Ezhen Turge, who had previously inlaid with white flags, did not surrender to the Ming army, but was captured and eventually fled back.

“…”

Listening to the comments from the people below, Huang Taiji frowned. After a while, he nodded and concluded: "I think that Ying'erdai will definitely not surrender to the Ming army. Eight out of ten people died in battle! The reason why the Ming army wanted to fabricate this lie was mainly to attack the morale of our Qing army and civilians! The way Jinzhou handled it right. If you can't discuss this kind of thing, you must believe that the Qing Dynasty has no corrupt body!"

After he made a conclusion, there was no messenger. When he stepped down, Huang Taiji asked everyone in the hall again, how to deal with the matter in North Korea?

As soon as he asked this question, he immediately attracted anger from a lot of people.

"Your Majesty, it goes without saying that North Korea dares to betray our Qing Dynasty. We must teach you a hard lesson!"

"Yes, I want to know my brother, just destroy North Korea, so as not to go back and forth!"

"Yes, send troops immediately to destroy North Korea. This is the end of the situation that dares to betray the Qing Dynasty!"

“…”

Huang Taiji nodded as they heard their almost one-sided words. He also meant this. When North Korea did that, it simply did not take the Qing Dynasty seriously, and he, the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty. Such things must be severely punished.

But when he was about to speak, he suddenly saw Fan Wencheng Wei frowned and lowered his head to ponder. Suddenly, his heart moved and asked, "Why don't Fan Qing talk? Let's talk about your thoughts?"

Of course, Fan Wencheng did not dare to neglect his name by Huang Taiji and hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the slave is the same. Anything that dares to rebel against the Qing Dynasty must be severely punished and cannot be imitated effectively! But..."

Huang Taiji nodded when he suddenly heard a turning point. He couldn't help but be a little surprised and asked quickly: "But what?"

"But I think it's not easy to send troops to North Korea immediately..."

Before Fan Wencheng finished speaking, he was interrupted by Duoduo: "Is there any brain problem? Can such a thing be delayed? Do you want to drag it slowly and then leave it alone? Tell me, how many benefits do you usually take on North Koreans?"

"…" Fan Wencheng was hoarse when he heard this, but soon came to his senses and immediately shouted: "Your Majesty, don't swear by others. I am loyal to Your Majesty. How could I do such a violation of the law and discipline!"

Huang Taiji believed him, and immediately stopped questioning, and then asked Fan Wencheng to continue talking.

"Your Majesty, I think so. Now North Korea rebels against my Qing Dynasty because of the support of the Ming army. I think that whether it is North Korea or the Ming army, I must know that my Qing Dynasty will not give up and must be fully guarding against my Qing Dynasty's revenge. Therefore, I feel that if my Qing Dynasty sends troops at this time, it will be within the expectations of North Korea and the Ming army. The effect of this war may not be as great as imagined. Once the war is delayed for a long time, it will consume a lot of food, grass and materials for my Qing Dynasty."

When Fan Wencheng said this, he saw Huang Taiji thinking, and continued to add: "So, I think it's better to wait for the North Koreans to relax, or if the Ming army is restrained and unable to rescue North Korea, my Qing Dynasty will suddenly send troops to North Korea, and maybe it will be twice the result with half the effort!"

In Chongzheng Hall, many people thought Fan Wencheng was justified, but Duoduo, who had just strongly requested to send troops, retorted a little angrily: "Isn't it just North Korea, and you still have to worry about it? No matter whether he is prepared or not, he will directly kill Seoul, there will be no problem at all!"

When Fan Wencheng heard this, he explained patiently: "Prince, it's not that I, the Qing Dynasty, cannot win, but the price to pay to win this war. If it were only the Koreans, there would be no need to make any more calculations. However, the Ming army in Liaodong is still a bit strong now, and at least it has been proved through a war. Be careful, or it would be better!"

Duoduo was a little dissatisfied when he heard this, so he was about to fight with the Ming army. However, Huang Taiji did not give him a chance to speak, so he heard him say to Fan Wencheng: "Yes, Fan Qing's words are reasonable. Now my Qing Dynasty food and supplies are the top priority, and this must be considered."

When he said this, he suddenly saw Dorgon stepping out and replied to him: "Your Majesty, I think it is better to bluff, garrison troops on the North Korean border and exaggerate the troops, so that North Korea's combat readiness will not be relaxed, and at the same time it can also drag down the Ming army to follow the nervousness. But in the Qing Dynasty, we should do whatever we should do. After the time is almost the same, we will assemble heavy troops to defeat the relaxed North Korea!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Taiji couldn't help but be overjoyed and quickly agreed: "Okay, not bad, this method is good!"

Seeing him happy, Jirgalang also joined in the fun and said, "Your Majesty, you can also send a small force into North Korea to fight the Winter Valley to try to reduce North Korea's combat readiness. If possible, focus on the coastal areas. In this way, if the Ming army wants to get supplies from North Korea, it must start from a further place, which is also a blow to North Korea and the Ming army!"

Huang Taiji was even happier when he heard this. He said yes, but if he asked again, there was no more additions. Therefore, the Qing Dynasty also gave corresponding strategies to North Korea's betrayal and soon began to implement it.

…………………

The days pass slowly, and it will be the New Year soon.

However, the Qing army did not stop. It is said that it stationed 100,000 troops, so it was preparing to cross the Yalu River in winter and destroy North Korea in one fell swoop. This made North Korea very scared. While ordering various places to prepare for war, it urgently sent people to Peak Island for help.

However, these movements have almost no impact on Jinzhou. What they were doing in the past and are still doing now.

Look, King Gongshun and King Huaishun gathered together to drink secretly.

After a while, Kong Youde suddenly said to Geng Zhongming: "Don't pay too much attention to those clowns. Prince Li has scolded them."

When Geng Zhongming heard this, he sighed and shook his head and said, "I know, I won't care about that little thing."

Before, the Ming army suddenly attacked Jinzhou. In order to protect Jinzhou, he immediately ordered the city gate to be closed and some of the Jianlu family supervisors were locked outside the city. Some were killed by the Ming army; some were later exchanged for the Han slaves in the city. However, no matter the ones killed or those who were replaced, they were not grateful to Geng Zhongming. On the contrary, they all had a great opinion of him. After Dai Shan led the army back, he went to Dai Shan to complain, saying that Geng Zhongming had an affair with Ming army and demanded severe punishment.

However, Daishan was still rational and did not punish Geng Zhongming after he understood the incident. However, all the Han slaves in Jinzhou were rescued by the Ming army, and the work of no labor made Daishan unable to be happy. Therefore, Daishan did not severely denounce those who complained.

As a result, although those people did not sue Geng Zhongming, they still refused to give in and began to find Geng Zhongming and his subordinates. Geng Zhongming had no choice but to endure it and dare not have a conflict with the Jianzhou Jurchens.

At this moment, after he finished speaking, seeing that Kong Youde was still a little worried, he had to say truthfully: "I'm not really concerned about this in my heart..."

Speaking of this, he looked around, the empty yard, and it was clear at a glance that only in the distance were their personal guards guarding, he lowered his voice and said to Kong Youde: "You said, is that Shang Kexi true or false before he died? Can people really see something before they die?"

When Kong Youde heard this, he was silent. After drinking a glass of wine, he shook his head and said, "It must be because of drinking too much. We almost died several times, so how could we see anything!"

"That's different!" Geng Zhongming shook his head and said, "We are not really going to die! King Yama must know this. I mean, if I really want to die, would you see something? Shang Kexi is a matter. I have heard of others before, and it seems that they have encountered it!"

Kong Youde seemed a little irritated when he heard this. His butt twisted and he didn't sit firmly. He suddenly threw the chopsticks on the table. After sighing, he looked at Geng Zhongming and said, "So what if we see it? Are we willing? If it is possible, we will reach this point now?"

Seeing Kong Youde like this, Geng Zhongming gave a positive answer, and couldn't help but sigh and said, "They... should they understand?"

Speaking of this, he suddenly changed his tone and said with a little uncomfortable expression: "In the past two days, I have dreamed of the past, and even dreamed of my childhood. But... but later it became a nightmare!"

When Kong Youde heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then sighed and said, "After hearing what Zhifu said, I also dreamed of my parents, my brother, and Mao Shuai, and I dreamed of many people... Alas!"

After a long sigh, Kong Youde went to take the wine pot and poured the wine, but found that there was no wine in the wine pot. He sighed and said, "Now that even the wine is restricted. I am afraid there will be no wine in these days!"

Geng Zhongming did not answer this topic, but lowered his head and was silent for a while, and suddenly raised his head and asked Kong Youde in a low voice: "Zu Dashou is gone, Shang Kexi is gone, North Korea is thrown back to Ming, and it is still so blatant. It has really changed much better now. Do you think the situation in Liaodong will develop?"
