Lin Dan did not dare to slack off when he received Wang Zhizheng's order to transfer troops, and immediately called Prime Minister Boyan, General Zhang Song, and eldest son Ezhe over to discuss together.

Lin Dan held his beard and said: "I received Wang Zhizheng's order, let me send troops to attack Horqin, let's discuss it together, fight or not!"

Zhang Song said without thinking: "Great Khan, Wang Zhizheng has just returned to Datong, and the crisis of Chahar's destruction of the country has just been resolved, and now we must immediately carry out Wang Zhizheng's order and mobilize troops against Horqin, if we don't listen to the call now, it will inevitably affect our relationship with Daming!"

Lin Dan said with some hesitation: "But our vitality is greatly injured, and we haven't recovered yet, Zalut is ready to move, and Khalkha is not yet attached, if we deal with the Horqin mercenaries, I don't know if they will take the territory instead?"

Zhang Song said: "Great Khan, you shouldn't think so, now Horqin has repeatedly violated us, Horqin is a good dog of Huang Taiji, Horqin Khan Wang Manggusi is Huang Taiji's father-in-law, Huang Taiji's two wives, a concubine, and a Zhuang concubine, are Manggusi's daughter and granddaughter respectively, such a relationship, what room for maneuver do we have? Now Wang Zhizheng is helping and sending 15,000 cavalry, if he doesn't fight Horqin at this time, he won't have a chance in the future!"

At this time, the young Taiji Ezhe, who had not spoken, said: "Father Khan, I don't agree with the opinion of the two uncles, Manggus is the father-in-law of Huang Taiji, if we send troops now, defeat Manggus, and occupy Horqin, then Huang Taiji will definitely concentrate his forces on Chahar to deal with us, and convert the enemy from Daming to us, and now, we are in the repair period, and we can't withstand the re-attack of Jianzhou!" Wang Zhizheng, although he is brave and strategic, but he is only a minister, not an emperor, if something happens to him, he is no longer in the northern army, and the court does not rescue, what should we do?"

What Ezhe said is what Lin Dan is most worried about, Wang Zhizheng is not the emperor, he is just a general, if he is transferred from the Northern Army by Emperor Chongzhen, then who can know what level the next governor of the Northern Army is, if the emperor does not rescue, he can't be destroyed by Huang Taiji, right?

Zhang Song asked rhetorically: "Taiji (Prince), do you think that if we don't fight Horqin, Huang Taiji will let us go?"

Ezhe said: "Of course, we can take refuge in Jianzhou, be the screen of Jianzhou, and help Jianzhou resist the Ming Dynasty, wouldn't it be better?

As soon as Ezhe's words fell, Lin Dan was furious, took out his waist knife and slashed at Ezhe, if it wasn't for Zhang Song to push Ezhe away, his head would have landed.

Ezhe was so frightened that he squatted on the ground and shook like a sifting chaff!

Zhang Song glared at Ezhe and reprimanded, "Don't you want to run?"

Ezhe got up and ran out.

Lin Dan's chest ached: "I am a wise man, why did I give birth to such a waste! Let me take refuge in Huang Taiji, what is he Huang Taiji?"

Zhang Song and Boyan hurriedly surrounded Lin Dan on the left and right: "No matter how bad Taiji is, after all, it is your biological son, and in the future, the Chahar Great Khan, if you kill him, who will take over?"

Lin Dan roared angrily: "What does he mean in the future, he has taken refuge in Jianzhou, and he will return his skills to Chahar!"

Boyan comforted: "Ezhe is young, he doesn't understand the general trend of the world, Jianzhou is just a small country that is difficult to protect itself, not half the size of our Chahar, what do we expect to take refuge in, even if we really want to take refuge in anyone, it can only be Daming, not to mention that the lord is wise, the surrounding tribes surrender, and our future is to re-prop up the world of Dayuan!"

Lin Dan was still angry: "I just didn't expect to have such a son! I, Lin Dan, led the entire Chahar army and civilians to die in the prairie, and I won't bow down to that traitor of Huang Taiji!"

Zhang Song took the opportunity to say: "Great Khan, hurry up and reorganize the army for battle, if you are not at ease with the rear, let Ezhezhen guard Chahanhot, and we will follow Wang Shi to conquer Chahar! Wait until we conquer Horqin and capture Mangusi, and then take the opportunity to cross the Liao River with the Ming Dynasty and attack Shengjing, the capital of the Jin State! If we can eliminate Jianzhou, then we will have Jianzhou and Mongolia at that time, and we will be able to negotiate terms with the Ming Dynasty!"

This sentence is well said, outlining a beautiful blueprint for Lin Dan, which is exactly the future that Lin Dan hopes for the most.

Lin Dan slapped the table and said: "Immediately gather the soldiers and horses, prepare to wait for the arrival of the Wang Division, and set out to Horqin together! As long as Huang Taiji's soldiers and horses are withdrawn from Songshan, we will immediately prepare to start crossing the Liao River to attack Shengjing! This time, it is best to completely destroy Shengjing, the old nest of Jianzhou!"

The soldiers and horses of the three towns set off from the Great Wall, and soon entered the territory of Chahar, because of the order of Lin Dan Khan, the small tribes did not dare to stop it, and they all competed to behave and send cattle, sheep and horse milk to the soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty!

Wu Sangui, Zuo Liangyu, and Wang Zhiqi soon met at the Bison Beach in Chahar.

Wu Sangui frowned and said to Wang Zhiqi: "Zhiqi, this time the old horseman of Huang Taiji besieged the city to help, and our Guanning iron cavalry was killed and injured, I hit Horqin this time, if I can catch up with the old thief of Huang Taiji, I must wash away the shame of my Guanning iron cavalry and cut the old thief off the horse!"

Wang Zhiqi nodded, patted Wu Sangui's shoulder and said: "Brother Sangui, this time in Horqin, Liangyu and I are also prepared, even if Horqin can conquer and fight, he will definitely make his small tribe completely wiped out from the northern frontier of the Ming Dynasty!"

Zuo Liangyu is different from them, Zuo Liangyu is more pragmatic, he doesn't like to say these willful words, he said to Wu Sangui and Wang Zhiqi: "This time to enter the army, the governor made Lin Dan the commander, so that we listened to Lin Dan's dispatch, I am very worried, why can't the governor come to command in person, even if he can't supervise, at least send Taichong or General Jiang Nai to command the troops, it is better than the Tartar commander, if the Tartar is not well-intentioned, let us have internal friction with Horqin, he is good at profit, what should we do?"

Wang Zhiqi said to Zuo Liangyu: "You think too much, the governor didn't tell you, that Zhang Song under Lin Dan actually secretly showed his loyalty to Da Ming several times, with him sitting next to Lin Dan, Lin Dan will not cheat us! Why let Lin Dan be the commander?" That's because the governor has never fought Horqin, and he is not familiar with the geography of the place, Lin Dan has been grudging with Horqin for decades, and he knows Horqin best in these thirty years of dealings, so it is best for Lin Dan to command this battle, in fact, you don't understand the meaning of the governor's doing!"
