The words have to go back to October 28, in the account of Emperor Taiji of the Great Khan of the Later Jin Dynasty, the Great Belle Dai said incomprehensibly: "Our army has broken through the Xifeng Pass yesterday, and it is time to go down to Zunhua, Kejimen, occupy Sanhe, seize Tongzhou, and approach the capital of the Ming Dynasty, I don't know why the Great Khan urgently summoned me to come back?" ”

Belzir Harang, Yue Xu, Du Du, Sakhalian and others echoed: "Yes, the Great Khan has always been wise and resolute, but I don't know why he did such a puzzling thing? ”

Huang Taiji glanced up at them and said, "It is true that my Houjin has made great progress after hard work, but the Ming Dynasty was originally a lion, although it is terminally ill, it is not easy for my Houjin to swallow it in one bite." ”

Belzir Harang said disappreciatively: "I see, this sick lion is nothing more than that, it's only been a few days, hasn't our army broken through the Xifeng Pass?" ”

Huang Taiji said: "Arrogant, don't you know that the arrogant soldiers will be defeated?" ”

Zilharang and the others could not hear the reproach, and they all lowered their heads and stopped talking, but they were still unconvinced.

Huang Taiji sighed secretly and said patiently: "Yes, in the past few days, our army has been like a bamboo, no, to be precise, it should not have encountered any effective resistance. Why don't you think about it seriously, if the defenders here are replaced by Yuan Chonghuan's Guanning Iron Cavalry, what will be the end? ”

As he spoke, he saw that although Zilharang and the others still did not speak, they had begun to ponder, and after thinking for a while, they slowly raised their heads and looked at him, and then said: "Wars are all purposeful for winning, and of course they must be consumed, even if we have developed, even if we have become rich, we will never easily launch a war without a purpose. ”

After speaking, he took a sip of tea, and continued: "The area occupied by Houjin is incomparable with the Ming Dynasty, we will occupy the Ming Dynasty sooner or later, but now is not the time, and we can't afford it." Therefore, we should never forget our purpose.

What is our purpose? The lion of the Ming Dynasty is sick, but he met a lame emperor who wants to heal it, of course we can't sit and wait for it to be cured, we must disrupt its position.

Specifically, it is necessary to shake the foundation of the Ming Dynasty and get rid of the stumbling block Yuan Chonghuan in front of us.

In order to achieve this goal, we must loot everywhere we go, recruit the Han people, intensify their internal contradictions, so that this crappy emperor has no time to heal, and of course, we must also strengthen ourselves. For this reason, we must not be brutal, we must have the right to devise a strategy.

As for the strategy, Fan Aiqing and I decided a few years ago. In view of the progress of the past few days, I have further studied with Fan Aiqing, and formed the basic strategy of this operation. ”

Speaking of this, he actually stood up, bowed to Fan Wencheng, and said sincerely: "Mr. has worked hard. ”

Seeing him like this, Fan Wencheng was extremely sincerely frightened, and said in his mouth, "I am willing to smear the liver and brain for the sweat", and hurriedly saluted. After saluting, Fang cleared his throat and said, "What is war?" As the Great Khan said, war is to fight the enemy and defend himself.

As a matter of fact, the Great Khan has already made it very clear about the purpose and strategy of this battle, and I would like to remind you of one more point, that is, to try your best to avoid engaging our number one enemy, Yuan Chonghuan, so that he has nowhere to be powerful. ”

After speaking, he still felt insufficient, and said: "The little emperor of the Ming Dynasty was already suspicious of it, if this is the case, the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty will definitely kill him." ”

Sakhalian said: "Yuan Chonghuan is the barrier of the Ming Dynasty, how can the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty kill him?" ”

Fan Wencheng said with a smile: "The general can't blame the general if he doesn't understand, because the general doesn't know enough about the Ming Dynasty." ”

Huang Taiji continued: "What I said is very true, I remind you that since you yearn for the Ming Dynasty, you must understand the Ming Dynasty, and you must understand yourself as well." Anyway, there is still some time, Fan Aiqing might as well explain in detail and let them gain some knowledge. ”

Fan Wencheng replied "yes" and said: "The Central Plains is different from us, big and rich, perhaps because of this, in all dynasties, monarchs and ministers are constantly suspicious. The little emperor of the Ming Dynasty was the emperor at this time, and he couldn't help it.

After Yuan Chonghuan was reinstated as the governor of Jiliao, he actively promoted the strategy of 'guarding the Liao land with the Liao people, raising the Liao people with the Liao soil, guarding the right, fighting as a miracle, and harmony as the side'.

Speaking of which, Yuan Chonghuan's strategy is undoubtedly in line with the current reality of Liaodong and is correct, but he ignored the strong desire of the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty to quickly solve the problem of Liaodong and withdraw from Liaodong.

It can also be said that no matter who takes up the position of this Jiliao Governor, as long as the correct strategy is adopted, it is impossible not to ignore the wishes of the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Because of this, no matter who is the Jiliao Inspector, it will not be pleased, it will be a dead end, not to mention Yuan Chonghuan, who has always been open-mouthed.

The fact is that Yuan Chonghuan's strategy has greatly weakened us, but his strategy has made the suspicious little emperor suspicious, and he doesn't know how to win over the courtiers and curry favor with the emperor.

The little emperor is already suspicious, let's push him again, and the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty will attack him in droves. The little emperor of the Ming Dynasty, in order to shirk responsibility, must kill him to vent his anger. ”

When Ji'er Harang and the others heard this, they were relieved, and they all turned to Huang Taiji, who said: "This is a big article, whether it can achieve the desired effect depends entirely on your efforts to make a fuss." ”

As he spoke, seeing that the generals were still puzzled, he turned to Fan Wencheng and said, "Sir, you might as well continue to speak." ”

Fan Wencheng paused for a moment, and then said, "In order to achieve our goal, we can't pay attention to the movements of Grand Inspector Yuan. I expected that Grand Inspector Yuan should have made a move at this moment, but I don't know how he will move.

There is a cloud in the ancient books of the Ming Dynasty: know each other and know yourself, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles. Since we have chosen him as the target, we naturally have to look at his movements first. This is also the reason why the Great Khan invited the generals back.

Of course, things on the battlefield are changing rapidly, and you need to change because of the changes in order to receive miraculous results. ”

The generals sighed: "It turns out that the Great Khan and Mr. Fan have a clever plan, why should Mr. Fan hide it from us, come quickly, we will do what we are told." ”

Fan Wencheng glanced at Huang Taiji, saw that Huang Taiji nodded, encouraged himself to continue, and said: "The Great Khan has already planned the overall situation, but we still have to wait, waiting for Yuan Chonghuan's news." However, don't worry, generals, it is estimated that there will be news from Xizuo soon. ”

As soon as the words fell, he saw the Chinese army hurriedly come in, and saluted: "Qi Great Khan, Yuan Chonghuan, the Liao Governor of the Great Ming Dynasty, has already made a move." ”

Huang Taiji let out an "oh" and said hurriedly: "If there is any action, say it quickly." ”

Zhongjun said: "According to the detailed report, after Yuan Chonghuan heard the news that our army made a detour through Mongolia and broke the wall into the fortress, he urgently ordered Zhao Xianjiao, the general soldier of Pingliao, to lead 4,000 soldiers and horses, and rushed to Santun Camp by the route of Funing and Qian'an, and galloped to rescue Zunhua. ”

Huang Taiji sneered, turned to Fan Wencheng and said, "Sir, please give an order." ”

Fan Wencheng was not polite, walked to the map, pointed to Zunhua and said: "Zunhua is an important town in Jingdong, and Yuan Chonghuan obviously wants to stop our army here." In this case, Zhao Shujiao must complete this 260-mile road before our army completes the 50-mile road from Xifengkou to Santun Camp.

It should be said that this is a high move, but it is a pity that he overestimated the power of Zhao Shujiao. In this way, our army is still divided into two routes, all the way between Zunhua and Santun camp to set up an ambush, to wait for work, in one fell swoop to annihilate Zhao Shujiao's department, and then quickly march west to conquer Zunhua.

On the other way, when Zunhua succeeded, he quickly took the Santun camp, closed the gap in the front flank of the rear road, and then developed westward, and marched quickly along the road from which Zhao Shujiao came. ”

As soon as he spoke, Huang Taiji immediately answered: "In this battle, our army has an absolute superiority against the enemy, and all departments must strive for complete victory, and there must be no mistakes, otherwise, it will be carried out by military law." ”

The generals all claimed to be yes, and each acted according to his orders.
